Chapter 1171

Silence lasted for a long time.

Brandon stood on the table with his hands, his bright eyes fixed on the dark haired wizard, and stared at the Loren Turin he seemed to have suddenly become unknown.

"Your enemy?"

His Majesty's expression was as complex and messy as his mood at the moment: "how do you know... No... Listen to your tone, as if I shouldn't ask."

"If I don't make so much noise, do I even have no qualification to know?"

It was like self mockery and sarcasm. Brandon's face was gloomy.

"No, you'll know," Lauren shook his head. "When it's over, you'll know the truth."

"When it's over?!" Brandon raised his voice and stared round:

"That's enough, isn't it?"

The black haired wizard sighed. Facing Brandon's eyes that wanted to kill but tried hard to hold back, he said, "Your Majesty, how much do you know about the black Duke?"

"Don't digress. Is there a connection between the two?"

"Yes!"

Looking at Laurent's finally serious expression, Brandon raised his eyebrows, angrily turned his head and sat down with his back to Laurent: "Roland Turin... I don't know much about this man."

"Charlotte de sallion, where is her Majesty the Dragon Queen?"

"She's my great grandmother. Considering her age, do you think it's possible for me to meet her?"

"What about your grandfather? Have you heard the story about the Dragon Queen from your grandfather?"

"What the hell are you trying to say?!"

Brandon blew up again.

"I want to say that if you know about the Dragon Queen and the black Duke, you should understand why I haven't mentioned it to you." Loren said slowly without changing his face:

"Roland Turin, the famous black Duke, conquered the Centaur tribe, the dwarf Kingdom, the imperial rebels, stationed in the fortress of duanjie mountain north, fought against the invading demons, and won brilliant victories again and again..."

"The man who personally forged Byrne's glory, but his deeds in the second half of his life are unpredictable, more and more strange, and more and more have a gap with his majesty Charlotte I..."

"Later, when he refused his Majesty's proposal, he was found with the mark of an evil god and became a traitor of the Holy Cross; when he crossed the fortress of duanjie mountain, everyone rebelled against his relatives, and only a few benefactors were willing to follow him..."

"Finally, when Charlotte was about to be defeated, she turned the world around by herself, ended the invasion of demons, and disappeared into the wilderness of the back ice field..."

"No one knows what happened to him."

Brandon, with his back to the dark haired wizard, bowed his head and said nothing all the time.

Although he was explaining to Brandon, the dark haired wizard himself seemed to understand something.

If you guessed correctly, Roland Turin might have faced a more difficult situation than himself - he desperately looked for the traces of the black cross and falling evil gods, and on the one hand, he had to deal with the pressure from Byrne and the heavenly palace.

Because the Byrne knights who became stronger and more ambitious with his war; The imperial nobles who felt the threat from the South and began to try their best to suppress him and block him.

Under the rebellion, Roland chose to go north and put all his eggs in one basket. He came back with his dying body and destroyed the demon army invading the empire with the last force.

"Why didn't Roland tell Charlotte the truth, and why didn't he let the Knights understand that what he did was to save the world, why..." Loren asked, as if to himself:

"Because... That's not what they need to know."

"If he wins, everyone doesn't need to know what happened, and everything will be back on track - Roland Turin, who reversed the world, probably plans to return to the time when he just met Queen Charlotte and start all over again?"

Brandon, with a gloomy face, did not speak. From Peter FASA, he had learned something about the relationship between vanity and evil gods.

"If he fails, he fails... Everything will be controlled by the black cross. Even if he tells Charlotte, he is unable to return to heaven."

"But he just failed!"

"He didn't fail, he just didn't succeed."

The black haired wizard shook his head and said word by word: "if he fails, we don't even have the qualification to sit here and discuss him - black cross serliol will become the God who really controls everything. Even if the world becomes another shape in an instant, we won't notice it. We will naturally think that this is what it should be."

Brandon remained silent.

"That's why I won't tell you, Brandon, this is not your war." staring at his back, the dark haired wizard whispered:

"He... Serlio, wants me; more accurately, the nine pointed star Holy Grail on me - Two Holy Grails. As long as he doesn't get one, he can't really control the whole world."

"Then why not just destroy the Holy Grail so that he won't..."

Before he finished, Brandon's voice was interrupted, looked back and looked behind him: "can't it be destroyed?"

Lauren shrugged.

"The two nine pointed star Holy Grails are the key and connection between the void and the real world, and are not really 'existing'." Loren explained:

"Serliol has returned to the material world from the void, but he has no power - he is probably looking for another holy grail now. As long as he is one short, he will not be able to achieve his goal and devour the whole world."

"So why don't you just hide with the Holy Grail... Ah, can't hide?"

"Serliol... He can detect all the void reactions in the world at once." Loren nodded. "There is still a little possibility face-to-face. Hiding is meaningless."

"Logan in a hat, Roland the black Duke... In the hundreds of years after the destruction of the Dragon Kingdom, generations of people stood up and fought against the black cross serliol alone; are they crazy? No, they are very sober. They know that the possibility of success is very small, but they did so."

"It has nothing to do with ability, status, blood... Just because this is what they should do, so they did it, that's all."

"So you don't have to be angry, because all this has nothing to do with you from the beginning - you've done enough to defeat the Azores."

The voice fell, and Loren said no more.

He knew that this was not enough to convince Brandon, but it was enough to let him understand the situation - just after the battle of eboden, the strength of the Empire was so weak that it was unable to immediately organize an army to attack an enemy who might not be sure where to go.

The rest is Charlotte and

"... every de sallion, at the moment of his birth, at the moment of his or her coronation as the supreme emperor, must make a vital choice."

"Become unscrupulous and use all means to continue the Empire and family rule to the next generation;"

"Or inherit the last wish of the Dragon Kingdom and fight against the enemies of the world;"

In a hoarse voice, Brandon suddenly interrupted Loren's thinking: "this is the secret that Eckhart II... My father... Told Peter FASA before he died."

"Every emperor has faced this problem. The vast majority chose the first and very few chose the second. For example, Brandon I, the sage, and Charlotte I, my wonderful great grandmother, felt that she could not do this multiple-choice question and grasp both hands hard."

"As a result... We all saw, she left a sky palace that was so weak that my grandfather spent all his life to make up for her mistakes; according to you, if the black Duke hadn't sacrificed herself, she might have lost another war."

Brandon sighed.

"And my father, Eckhart de sallion, guess what... He wants to do the same thing as Charlotte, but not quite the same."

"My father's age is older than his brothers and sisters, so he must have seen the Dragon Queen and how the queen who was powerful in her youth and lost everything in the end was like dust.

So he learned to be good and smart; he was very careful, very cautious, and he knew how to avoid Charlotte's mistakes. "

Turning around, Brandon smiled at the corners of his mouth, stared at his bright red eyes, and gestured with Lauren in a cadenced tone.

The dark haired wizard knows that this is his serious attitude.

"Charlotte failed. Why? Because she wanted to win two wars on her own, she deserved bad luck. She lost all her love, career, Heritage... So Eckhardt knew that if she wanted to win, she couldn't just rely on herself, but on everyone."

"In the battle of duanjie mountain, he supported drexis and a strong army of veterans; he indulged the Holy Cross Church and won the hearts of the people;"

"The indulgence of wizards and eboden has brought a force that can fight against the old forces and old nobles." Brandon widened his eyes and said with a ridiculous smile:

"You may not have guessed that the rise of the Centaur tribe, the civil strife in the dwarf Kingdom and the Azores incident... Well, yes, he knew for a long time that even the enemy was his chess pieces, which were in his calculations."

"Me, Conrad, sister-in-law fillonay... Including you, especially you, Loren Turin... Are all in his calculation!" Brandon's smile grew stronger and stronger:

"He knows everything you've done... He even knows that you're not a descendant of the Turin family at all. You're just a little entourage picked up by Leonardo Turin in the lottel forest, pretending to use the Turin family name."

"No! It's not a fake, because Leonardo has no grandchildren at all. His only son died in Arles. You're a real fake Turin!"

"He even..." here, Brandon paused deliberately and looked at Lauren's expression playfully:

"I even know that you once met and met an evil god in the wild dog village. The evil god named... Asriel appeared next to you at least twice."

The black haired wizard's expression changed slightly.

It's not because of how surprised... Brandon is not a wizard. Although his void response is weak, he also exposes what he thinks in front of Loren.

If so, it means that the de saleon family always knows the truth, and Eckhart de saleon

"From the moment he became emperor, he has been laying out for the purpose of accomplishing his great cause one day, or... The great cause that Charlotte I, the Dragon Queen, failed to accomplish."

Brandon's voice sounded faintly:

"For this goal, everyone... Everything... Empire... Is just his chess piece. Even his own life and death are in his plan."

"The man personally planned his death in order... To make his plan work perfectly - even if he was destined to lose sight, he would continue to manipulate the whole chessboard until now."

"Can you understand me, Loren, can you understand me... You, me and hundreds of thousands of people outside are living in his mind, living for his ambition, for the ambition of a dead man..."

"Wait! Brandon."

Lauren interrupted him with a light laugh: "it's too much to say - I know you don't have a good relationship with your father, but if this plan works, why..."

"No, you still don't understand!"

Brandon suddenly turned around and looked at Lauren with impatience in his eyes:

"Loren Turin... Do you really not understand, or are you pretending to be stupid with me?!"

"I say it again - my father, Eckhart II, the supreme emperor of the twelfth generation, was crazy to complete the great cause of the failure of the crazy queen and the black Duke."

"For this purpose, he used everyone, including you and me, and his own life;"

"But he doesn't intend to rely on his own hands, or even to see the day when his plan succeeds; he is ambitious. Let's follow his plan from the moment he dies... Until this moment."

"See... Your choice is not your choice, but planned by this guy to let you die, and I become the fool who doesn't know anything and continue de sallion's blood to the next generation;"

"See, fool?!"

Brandon roared with tears.

But Loren was very quiet, even as if he didn't know it at all: "but isn't that what you expected - to become the emperor of the Empire and continue the blood of de sallion to the next generation?"

"Yes! But definitely not according to his idea, not according to his meaning... This is my idea. It should be in my way, not others, not even another desalion!"

Brandon said coldly, "and in my experience, if it is the game set by my omnipotent father, there must be what he asks... Not only to continue his blood and save the world, there must be something else he wants."

"So... Loren Turin, we need a plan."

"A new plan."
