Arknights: Iron-Blooded Savior

And just as Rankopel was preparing to set off from Usas to Rembito, inside the palace of Usas, the aftermath of Chernoberg was still rippling between Fyodor and Witte.

At this time, the royal palace of Usas was already at night.

There were many Usas who slept soundly this night, but more of them were Usas who could not sleep at all, and they either had something in their hearts or ghosts in their hearts.

"Your Majesty, this is the archive of the whole thing."

In the private office of the Usas monarch, Usas Speaker Witte stepped forward and handed over the last original record of Chernoberg to Fyodor.

"-Why did this happen?!"

Fyodor trembled with anger, and slammed the original record on the table, and the kerosene lamp on the table trembled with fright:

"Is there someone in the inner guard who betrayed?"

When Witte heard this, he was a little silent.

"Witte, answer me honestly."

"My chest is like a fireplace that has not been lit for a long time in winter, and only honest words can make my heart beat again, even if those unpleasant facts will break my heart."

Only then did Witt speak:

"Your Majesty, my Majesty, the inner guard will never betray you."

"They will serve you, Usas, until the land is engulfed in flames—as long as you remain the monarch of Usas."

Fyodor roared:

"Then what the hell is going on with them?! The inner guard stood by and watched the death of that old monster?!

Witte hesitated for a moment before saying

, "Actually,

my Majesty."

"We sent out the inner guards of Chernoberg, a total of seven sharp blades, three pairs of iron fists, two eyes, but only five or six of them came back... Others... Because of the serious damage of the fragments, it has rushed to the border of civilization.

"I didn't know I would say such a sentence one day... Nearly half of the internal guards sent out died in the line of duty with almost no ability to resist.

"According to the reports of the rest of the inner guards, the battle scene at that time can be described as exaggerated, seventy or eighty years ago, the old inner guards went on an expedition to the extreme north to fight and kill the devil, and that scene was just that."

"[Gaul]: The night dyes the day, and the day oozes blood, from which endless waterfalls of blood pour down... The sky of Chernoberg is like being covered by more than three natural disasters at the same time.

Fyodor waved his hand and interrupted Werther's words:

"If someone really raises his hand and waves it, he can dye the night into day, open a hole in the sky, and fall into the infinite waterfall of blood... Make such an exaggerated scene, and these people happen to be enemies of Usas.

Fyodor's hand pressed the table, and he said in a somewhat excited tone:

"Then I... Who are these people?

"Is it Dayan, the old heavenly master who has been sitting on the border for more than three hundred years? Left the towering organ tower and went to our land alone, once again grabbed a handful of heavenly thunder and sprinkled it on the territory of Usas?

"Or maybe Cyril Linguang was reincarnated?" Crawled out of Casimir's grave? As in the previous time at the Wikasaya fortress, the second sun rose at the end of the horizon?

"Or the fucking horde of demon bugs in Lentinom, whose tentacles and minions of the royal court sent the dirtiest forces to provoke our land in sight?"

Witte said:

"No... Your Majesty, my Majesty, the situation is much more complicated, and based on the inference of the source stone technique, we can basically conclude that it is a good thing done by the Sakatz.

Fyodor immediately said,

"I should have known! That group of demon scum with dirty hearts and equally ugly appearances absolutely could not be left, and it was really a pity that the emperor could not exterminate this group of inferior races.

Witte didn't know what to say, just waited silently by Fyodor's side.

"Enough, Werther, let's not mention this, the Chernoberg matter will be talked about later, let's be straightforward, Werther, I want to know now, where are the masterminds of this clumsy conspiracy now?"

"Answer me bluntly! Victor!

Fyodor said.

"Grand Duke Baikal, deputy commander of the Third Army and governor of Rosin, and Viscount Kirke."

Witte said in a steady tone:

"Of course, I still don't have enough evidence to prove that they were indeed the mastermind of the whole incident."

"Moreover, when the inner guard was about to punish these sinners, kicking open the door of their house and hanging them in their own home, they found that..."

"It was discovered that these traitors, who did not dare to face their crimes and your wrath, had committed suicide in fear before they were tortured."

Fyodor only felt anger in his heart, and gritted his teeth and said:

"Coward... These cowards ... Without even the courage to face a fair trial, these gutter insects parasitic on Usas deserve to be cut by a thousand cuts!

"It seems that they know, they know that once they are judged, their filthy greed, their filthy minds, these will be exposed to the people of Usas."

"And now... We still can't get them on trial.

Vite nodded and said

to Fyodor: "Yes, Your Majesty, unfortunately, we still have to arrange all this behind the scenes, rather than exposing it on the table, and now the political situation in Usas is too chaotic."

"[Gaul]: Once they provoke stupid beasts of burden, they will also eat anything other than grass."

"But even so, the parts that were left of them, the parts of the body, the inner guards disposed of properly."

"Their bones would be hung from beams until they stinked, and no one would dare to remove their decaying remains."

"If they succeed, they will drag Usas into war, regain power, weaken the power of the Parliament, and even your majesty's rule and prestige..."

He refused to mention any of his own interests, but radiated them to the entire realm of Usas and imperial rule, which is why Witte's words often reached Fyodor's heart.

"Traitor! This end is also too cheap for them! They should be fed to the meat scorpions! Even if I feed the cracked beasts, I am afraid that the filthy carrion of that group of people will erode the roots of the cracked beasts' teeth.

Fyodor was still feeling a puff in his chest, but he quickly added

, "Oh, forgive me, Witte, I didn't mean to say that, it's horrible, no,

we can't do it."

"We cannot repeat the mistakes of the past, no matter how much anger I am prepared to unleash on my enemies now, this kind of behavior, I must admit, is unbearable to me."

Witte looked at the king of Usas in front of him and said peacefully

, "I know,

you still refused to use these methods during the Great Rebellion."

"But to this day, I still think that nothing can touch them except to hang them."

"Only a more blunt horror can deter those who are used to bringing terror to others."

"Even I am as firmly opposed to these means as you are."

Fyodor said in disbelief,

"Incredible."

"With the emperor first, is it really only this vicious tradition that can deter that group of ignorant and short-sighted fools?"

"The swords and shields, cannons and crossbows of our empire, are our lovely soldiers held in the hands of these maggots and kneaded wantonly? Even we are going to be forced into the quagmire of decay together?

Witte sighed lightly, shook his head and said:

"Your Majesty, unfortunately, I can't answer this question, from the meaning of the Usas Constitution, after all, I am not the intelligence chief in your official caliber."

Fyodor continued:

"More importantly, Vetter, is that legend true, the so-called 'undead black snake'? Is it just like what they say, an evil god who can't be killed?

"What if there is more than one such evil god in our vast land?" How can our citizens be freed from this slavery?

"And why has the power that can compete with that evil god been unknown in our land for so long that none of us have noticed?"

"If they disguise their faces and use their names, can they come directly to my dormitory and kill me?"

"Vetter, we stand under the light, but we are surrounded by countless black shadows, can we illuminate the whole of Usas with a fire?"

Witte hesitated for a moment before he spoke:

"Your Majesty, I just want to point out the fact that even in recent decades, Duke Kosice is the only one who has clearly shown signs of involvement in these events."

"Besides, after his death, we have no way to verify his identity."

"This shows that there may still be other immortals in Usas, but they... Still afraid of you, afraid of the eyes of Usas, and the eyes of the army.

"It has been nearly a thousand years since Usas overthrew the rule of the eagle, and the resilience and strength of the Usas nation are far from being comparable to one or two dying monsters."

"If they want to do it, they will do it, they will fail, they will die like useless dust."

"We will find them and overcome them, and Usas is above all, my Majesty."

Fyodor nodded and said,

"... If you say it's true, that's fine. "

What about the mutant thing? Is there any progress? Witte

immediately replied

, "You are in a hurry,

it is too early to close the mutant mines owned by the armies of the Northwest."

"You may just want to weaken the army's resource reserves, or even show a little of your kindness."

"But it's not just the army against you, your people are also against it, and the seeds planted for hundreds of years are now towering trees, and mutants make them scared, scared to the point of creepiness."

"You cannot be hostile to your people ... Not yet.

"Most of your people hate mutants, and that hatred is manifested in every way, and you should have read the corners beyond the layers of information that has been sifted."

"Your people even take pleasure in killing mutants, putting them in warehouses and starving them to death... Hang them up and whip them alive, trample them to death with a beast of burden..."

"These abominations are the weapons that the military uses to blackmail you more than the blades in their hands, and when you confront the military, it will be deliberately misinterpreted as confronting the people."

"Your capital is not enough to support you to do so."
