Apostle of Cthulhu

El hasn't been to Balem Apartment much recently.

As the final ruling is approaching, as the daughter of the Duke and the noble closest to Egbert, her actions are naturally subject to various restrictions.

But then again, in fact, Duke Taylor's behavior was already restricted during the first ruling, but no one noticed El.

But now, rumors about the Truth Cult are spreading in Fulingdu. In order to prevent his daughter from being affected, Duke Taylor can only take her back.

El has not yet accepted the pendant token from the Truth Cult, so Jia and Nancy ignored her. Besides, what's the use of being a believer? She can't get in touch with the core content at all. At most, she can be a believer and may distract Siwei's power.

Therefore, it can be said that no one cares about her return to the Duke's mansion.

A big part of the reason why El is unwilling to stay at home is that many nobles want political marriages, and blind dates can be more than the affairs that Duke Taylor handles every day.

Now that Egbert is facing downfall, Duke Taylor, as an opposition party, may lose power at any time, so those who send "blind date invitations" now basically have no political purpose, but simply covet Elle's beauty.

Elle, who was not very adaptable at home, became even more disgusted after seeing the disgusting eyes of those nobles. He locked himself in his room every day, and even needed the maid to deliver his meals to his room.

"Asshole! What is this? Can such news be published in a capital-level newspaper? Go contact the publisher for me, stop producing such newspapers immediately, and stop the spread of public opinion!"

Duke Taylor's roar came from outside the door. Elle, who was sitting at his desk drinking red wine, frowned his beautiful eyebrows and said nothing.

She knew very well why Duke Taylor was angry. In order to reduce the support of the opposition, the supporters did everything they could.

There have been countless similar public opinion news this month, and the closer to the final ruling, the more such news there is.

There are also some guys who organized a parade. It is clear that the final decision is made by the internal decision of the imperial organization, but they made it seem like civilians also have the right to participate.

El didn't care about these things at all. She just wanted to know when she could return to Balem Apartment, switch personalities and play with Alice, sit on the bed with Nidhogg and drink red wine, and be taught some missionary knowledge.

Unfortunately, within the three weeks of the final decision, she must have endured countless torments.

When she thought of this, she sighed silently.

"Miss, why are you sighing?"

This voice made El alert all of a sudden, and she jumped up from the chair subconsciously, "Who?!"

She was so surprised because El didn't sense that someone was lurking around her.

With her ability, even if someone opened the door quietly, she would be aware of it.

However, she didn't notice that someone entered her room at all.

This is enough to show that the other party is definitely a guy with a sequence node far higher than her!

When Al looked behind her, there was indeed a man leaning against the wall, next to her luxurious wardrobe, playing with a pen in his hand.

"Joe?" Al obviously knew Joe Rupert, "Why are you here?"

This is normal. Al's mother is a member of the expedition team, and Joe was raised by Curtis. It would be wrong if the two did not know each other.

Joe put away the spiritual pen in his hand, raised his eyes, and said to Al: "I am glad that you are okay, but during this period of time, mainly in Fulingdu, it is not safe."

"What does this mean?" Al did not understand.

Joe did not talk nonsense, but directly opened Al's wardrobe.

In an instant, more than five bodies that had completely lost their breath fell out of the wardrobe in a mess. There were no obvious scars on their bodies, but their hearts had stopped beating and they were completely out of breath.

"This..." Al covered his mouth to prevent himself from screaming, "How could it be..."

"These are all missionaries, and their sequence nodes are not low." Joe looked calm, as if it would not take much effort to get rid of these people. "Whether they are opponents or supporters, they have accumulated their own strength for this day. The Court of Divine Justice and the Court of Inquisition are the best examples. Recently, the Privy Council seems to be intervening in this matter.

"Kidnapping or you and Duke Taylor is just a way to threaten Egbert to compromise."

Al didn't quite understand the meaning of this sentence, "Why threaten Egbert? He should not have much power now."

Joe was gloomy and silent for a moment.

Then he said, "I was not originally from this world."

Al was stunned. This sentence was beyond her understanding.

"I came to this world not by accident. From a long time ago, Egbert wanted to create a ninth-node demigod that belonged to him alone, and I was the first 'creature'. Unfortunately, I was secretly taken out of Fulingdu by Curtis, which caused Egbert's plan to fail, so he issued a wanted order for the entire expedition team.

"Over the years, he must have done similar experiments more than once, which means that he is likely to control a powerful group of puppet missionaries.

"And those supporters want to force Egbert to tell the truth by kidnapping or assassinating you, so as to increase their chances of winning in the final decision, or directly hand over the control."

El widened her eyes. She left her home a long time ago and knew nothing about the dark side of the empire.

Today, Joe revealed all his testimony and conjectures, just like dissecting the darkness of the empire and then fully displaying it in front of her.

"Then... do you need me to do anything? "Al knew that Joe would not save her in vain. Egbert wanted Curtis Brandt, who was like his biological mother, and he came to save her and his father, who were in opposition today. He must have his purpose.

Joe was very pleased that Al was so reasonable.

"What I want is very simple. I hope you can provide me with the list of all members of the Academy of Life Sciences, which participated in the artificial demigod plan, whose member list was later hidden by Egbert and secretly disbanded."

Joe knew that this matter was not easy, so he gave some special reminders, "There is a pass in your father's desk. As the daughter of Duke Taylor, you can mobilize all the information, including some hidden information, when you go to the Privy Council with that thing."
