My queen is rebelling!
#183 - For the Queen sister!
Mammon fell into deep thought, his instinct for trading surging.
The phosphorescent flames in his pupils trembled violently, showing the great emotional fluctuations within him.
The mouth shape Cohen made was too important to him.
So important that it could make him abandon his grudges with Cohen and shake hands to make peace.
Of course, that was on the premise that Cohen didn't fool him again.
This was what Mammon was most worried about, after all, Cohen had a previous record.
Mammon's voice lost its previous anger, and he quickly adjusted his emotions, seemingly casually asking:
"What Zom Continent? Never heard of it."
Cohen's face showed the expression of a fish being hooked, not flustered at all by Mammon's probing, and said unhurriedly:
"An ancient, abandoned old continent, later swept into the void of the planes by a space-time vortex.
Legend has it that there are divine treasures left by the Dark Six Gods. What's the matter, Boss Mammon, aren't you interested?"
Hearing Cohen's words, Mammon's breathing suddenly became rapid. This kid really knew!
But how did he know that he was also looking for traces of the Zom Continent?
Okay, he is the "Child of Prophecy." Mammon felt a pang of pain when he thought of this. His dragon egg was tricked away like this.
However, the other party's ability as the "Child of Prophecy" was too perverted. Predicting a legend-level event was not subject to any restrictions or backlash. It was too terrifying.
Unlike the other Hell Lords in the Hell Plane who were indifferent and hostile to the human continent.
The reason why Mammon was keen to interact with the powerful and high-ranking people on the human continent, in addition to satisfying his desire and greed for wealth and treasures, the most important thing was to find clues about the Zom Continent.
The Zom Continent was originally a part of the old human continent. It was a place where evil gods and divine abominations were exiled during the Age of Gods.
The rulers above were the Dark Six Gods, namely:
[Devourer] who controls the power of elements and the wildness of beasts.
[Guardian] who collects souls and sins.
[Fury] who dominates passion and revenge, anger and despair.
[Mockery], the spokesperson for betrayal and terror.
[Shadow], the master of forbidden knowledge and ambition.
[Traveler], a combination of deception and innovation.
Later, the tide of demons flooded, and the exiled gods on the Zom Continent also took the opportunity to launch a rebellion.
In order to prevent the gods on the Zom Continent from attacking the Demon Tide Continent, the gods directly cut the entire Zom Continent with supreme divine power and exiled it into the endless void.
However, many clues passed down from ancient times have confirmed that the Zom Continent was not destroyed in the dangerous space-time storms of the endless void. Instead, it still retains the complete divinity and godhood of the Dark Six Gods!
In the game process of his previous life, Mammon found the space-time imprint leading to the Zom Continent in the treasure house of a kingdom's prince.
He finally successfully arrived at this old continent, and he had great luck. He obtained the divinity and godhood of the [Guardian], which was the most compatible with demons.
Before the gods descended on the Demon Tide Continent, he ignited the divine fire and became the first Hell Lord to become a god in the entire Hell Plane.
The mouth shape Cohen just made to Mammon was Zom Continent.
After Mammon heard Cohen casually say the ancient secrets about the Zom Continent, he was even more certain that the other party knew some clues.
Almost in an instant, Mammon put down his grievances with him, and his expression returned to the shrewdness and composure he usually had when he was the boss of Pawnshop No. 8. He opened his mouth and asked:
"I am indeed interested in the divine treasure. I think no one in this world is not interested in things left by the gods.
Tell me, what clues do you have?"
Cohen chuckled and said:
"I have a lot of information, for example... [Guardian] left at least five points of [Sin] divinity in his divine treasure!"
Although Mammon tried his best to suppress the excitement in his heart, the muscles twitching at the corners of his mouth still revealed his inner emotions.
Five points of divinity were exactly the same as the information he had learned over the years!
It seemed that the [Guardian] had really fallen, otherwise he wouldn't have left so much divinity.
Mammon looked at Cohen and then asked:
"What about the godhood?
Is his godhood still there?
Has he fallen..."
Cohen coughed lightly and said:
"Boss Mammon, shouldn't you show your sincerity too?"
Mammon smiled sheepishly and said:
"I don't care about that Viscount Vaughn. I can return the things he sold me before in full.
I can also provide you with several strongholds of 'Black Tomb'.
Oh right, to tell you the truth, our 'Black Tomb' Northwest Continent branch has already begun to be rebuilt.
The preparation commissioner is the former 'salesman' of the Northwest Continent.
If you are interested, I can help you fish him out. He is not even a legend-level, and you will definitely be doing a great service in front of your Queen Effie if you catch him."
Cohen's heart was full of sarcasm. This Mammon really deserved to be a devil from hell. He was really shameless.
He would sell his colleagues and subordinates without any regard for affection.
However, what he said was not attractive to Cohen at all.
He didn't care about Viscount Vaughn, and he didn't want his wealth. These things were already Cohen's.
Mammon couldn't interfere at all.
As for the magic crystals and rare ores that Vaughn traded with Mammon before, these things were precious, but no matter how precious they were, they were not as good as the clues of the gods.
Not to mention helping to capture the "salesman." The "salesman" was very obedient in Cohen's arms and didn't need to be captured at all.
Therefore, although Mammon seemed to have put forward many conditions, they were actually worthless and were just trying to fool Cohen as a child.
After Mammon finished speaking, he looked at Cohen expectantly.
Cohen smiled slightly, didn't say a word, raised his arm, and smashed the crystal ball with a snap.
On the side of the crystal ball, Mammon watched Cohen raise his arm, and then the picture in front of him went black. He was furious.
He knew that the other party didn't like the conditions he offered and deliberately interrupted the connection. He was both angry and anxious.
He cursed in his mouth. This little bastard was too cunning. Couldn't he just talk things over?
It wasn't like they couldn't negotiate. The young people were still too impulsive.
Mammon shook his head and complained while contacting the "salesman."
After Viscount Vaughn was arrested, he had no eyes and ears in Florence and could only rely on the reconstruction commissioner of the Northwest Branch.
Mammon's tone was very gentle, and he couldn't see that he had just planned to sell Melantha as a bargaining chip to Cohen.
Melantha looked at the content sent by Mammon and replied:
"Do you mean you want me to find a way to contact the 'Lord of Shadows' and express your goodwill to him?"
Mammon replied very firmly:
"Yes, if you can contact him, please give me a message, just say that everything is negotiable and everyone is friends.
If the 'salesman' is willing to help with this, I can help you with your work at the headquarters and pull a little more budget over for the reconstruction of your Northwest Branch."
Melantha was very surprised that Mammon could take the initiative to bleed, which was really rare.
Also, aren't you two enemies? When did your relationship become so good?
Mammon, the third councilor, has an extraordinary position in "Black Tomb." Even several "Tomb Owners" rely heavily on him.
It was unbelievable that he could make such a humble request.
Melantha agreed on the surface and decided to take the time to ask Cohen what kind of mind control he had put on Mammon, how he suddenly became so talkative.
...
A vigorous liquidation campaign against the Collins family was carried out from the central government to the regions, from the government to the military, in an all-round and multi-level manner.
All the previous misdeeds of the Collins family were also turned out one by one.
Her Majesty the Queen shot and killed the head of the Collins family in court, a hereditary viscount, which also left a lasting and unforgettable impression on everyone.
Many ministers and officials in the court who had their own little thoughts and were flirting with other countries or organizations also gave up their thoughts.
No matter what happens in the future, at least now Her Majesty the Queen will really kill people!
It is said that after the news returned to the Southern Territory, the Grand Duke of the Southern Territory was stunned for a long time without recovering.
At the same time, this organization called Military Intelligence began to rapidly expand into a powerful force that could not be ignored in the Effie court.
With one shot, it was a hereditary viscount family, and no one dared to underestimate the existence of Military Intelligence.
That black uniform, the eagle badge, and the red certificate have become symbols of fear in Florence.
The personnel of Military Intelligence have also been rumored to be more and more miraculous, especially the assistant director named Nephthys, codenamed "Lady."
Every time she walked into Her Majesty the Queen's office with documents, at most in less than an hour, a high-ranking official would fall.
Therefore, Nephthys has already had a frightening nickname in the Florence officialdom - "Lady of Disaster!"
But in the mouths of the entire Florence citizens, Nephthys's nickname has become "Lady of Justice."
Because the citizens were surprised to find that there were suddenly fewer officials who used to be arrogant, corrupt, and used their power for personal gain.
The efficiency of government agencies has also been greatly improved.
Even now, there are no urban management personnel on the streets who arbitrarily fine and expel vendors.
Those usually arrogant grassroots officials have also become more harmonious and sincere in their attitude towards the people.
Cohen listened to Nephthys's complaints and said with a smile:
"It seems that our Miss Nephthys has a lot of prestige among the people!"
Nephthys curled her lips and said:
"By the way, 'Deep Sea' left a password. He has something to report to you. He has arrived at the safe house. Go there."
Cohen's eyes moved slightly. Could it be that something happened to Gore and the Dupont family?
For the sake of Herman's undercover safety, Cohen had never taken the initiative to contact him. He had given him the highest authorization, and everything was based on his own decisions.
Now that he took the initiative to contact him at the risk of danger, there must be something important.
Cohen did not hesitate too much and soon came to the safe house to meet Herman.
Herman did not waste any words after seeing Cohen and directly opened his mouth and said:
"I just got the news that the Central Empire has sent someone over."
It's the Samuel Jones that His Majesty mentioned before, who is disguising his identity as a jeweler from the Central Empire.
Tonight at ten o'clock, he will disembark from Emerald Port on a secret cruise ship.
He will be personally greeted by Kinwording DuPont, the head of the DuPont family.
The specific task is unclear."
Cohen was shocked. He's finally here.
This Samuel Jones is a confidant of Heisenberg, the Chief of the Upper House of the Noble Council of the Central Empire. Since he has come in person, he must be carrying a very important mission.
It is very likely the plan for the Florentia unrest that will happen soon.
The detailed contents of this plan must be obtained!
This is not a difficult task for Cohen, who possesses the "Shadow Plane."
But what about after that? Should Samuel be allowed to go back?
This man is Heisenberg's close confidant. He must know why Heisenberg is trying so hard to target Adelle.
If he can be taken down, it will be very beneficial to grasp Heisenberg's movements and make corresponding countermeasures.
Samuel left the heavily guarded Central Empire and took the initiative to come to Cohen's territory. This opportunity is very rare.
Cohen's pupils narrowed slightly, and he made up his mind. For the sake of his Queen sister, he must take down this person at all costs!
He will resolutely eliminate all forces coveting his Queen sister, even if the opponent is the Gods!
Cohen's eyes showed contemplation. The DuPont family is not the same as the Collins family.
The former has a history of hundreds of years in Effien. Most importantly, according to the hypnosis of Boggs DuPont, the heir of the DuPont family last time, the current head of the DuPont family, Kinwording DuPont, has quietly advanced to the Legendary rank.
This also means that the DuPont family must have a sub-plane in their hands that can cover up the visions of breaking through the Legendary rank.
Therefore, if you want to secretly wipe out the DuPont family, which has a Legendary-rank transcendent and a sub-plane, the current strength of Florentia is not enough.
Once pushed into a corner, Kinwording will unleash the Legendary domain, and everything will be exposed.
Cohen is not fully prepared for war yet.
The Star Guardian Armor created by the "Melting Tribe" has not been fully equipped by the army, and his current strength is not enough to cope with this complex situation.
We must wait a while longer until his 20,000 "elite-level" troops are formed.
Florentia cannot have major unrest now.
You can't rob people from the DuPont family, and you can't attack the DuPont family.
Cohen quickly had an idea. He must seek the help of an ally.
Her Majesty the Empress of the Central Empire!
The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Although Heisenberg has not yet exposed his ambition to usurp the throne, with the Empress's means, she must have noticed something.
As long as he contacts Her Majesty the Empress, relying on the identity of the Prophet to add fuel to the fire, there is a high probability that he can persuade her.
As for how to contact her, it seems that he has to go back to the "Lost Land" and ask Miss Elf for help.
After all, this is Her Majesty the Empress's good bestie. With her help in contacting her, his success rate in persuading the other party will be greater.
Thinking of this, Cohen no longer hesitated. After asking Herman for the specific time and place of Samuel's arrival at the port, he asked Herman to go back first.
......
Late at night, Emerald Port, like a sleeping behemoth, is so quiet that only the sound of waves lapping against the shore remains.
In the darkness, the light of the magic lamp, like a jumping heart, illuminates a small world.
Two nobles in gorgeous costumes stood solemnly on the shore, looking into the distance, obviously waiting for something.
One of the older ones is Kinwording DuPont, the current patriarch of the DuPont family.
The other is his brother, Theodore DuPont.
The two highest authorities of the DuPont family are waiting for the arrival of a guest on the shore late at night, which is enough to prove the distinguished identity of this guest.
Behind the two were a line of neat subordinates, all of them standing tall and straight, holding weapons, and their armor gleamed coldly under the lights, like silent statues, exuding a majestic aura.
The sea breeze howled, bringing the salty and humid breath of the sea.
A vague black shadow appeared on the distant sea, and as the black shadow approached, a huge cruise ship gradually became clear.
Kinwording straightened his body slightly, watching the ship slowly dock.
The gangway was lowered, and a handsome young nobleman slowly stepped onto the land.
Samuel Jones, Secretary-General of the Legal Committee of the Noble Council of the Central Empire, Heisenberg's chief confidant.
Samuel was dressed meticulously and properly, with an approachable smile on his face, without the slightest condescending attitude.
You can't tell at all that he is a senior official from the core power institution of the Central Empire.
His handsome appearance and peaceful attitude immediately narrowed the distance between everyone.
When Samuel saw Kinwording DuPont, the head of the DuPont family, appearing at the port, he quickened his pace, with a sincere and apologetic smile on his lips, and said:
"It's really embarrassing to trouble Patriarch DuPont to come out to greet me in person.
Lord Chief repeatedly told me to convey his regards to you on his behalf after I meet the Patriarch."
Samuel's humble and cautious attitude immediately won Kinwording's favor.
Kinwording also smiled and replied:
"Mr. Samuel is a distinguished guest from the Central Empire, so it is right for me to greet you.
Speaking of which, it is still my fault. The last few times Mr. came, I was busy with official business and was not in the country, so I was unable to meet Mr. Samuel in person.
This time, I have to come and greet you in person."
Samuel laughed and said:
"Okay, okay, let's not be so polite."
The two chatted with each other, while Theodore stood far away, observing the surrounding movements.
Before long, Herman walked quickly to Theodore and said in a low voice:
"My lord, the patrol of the Military Intelligence Bureau will arrive in ten minutes, we have to leave as soon as possible."
Theodore was startled and asked:
"How can it be so fast?"
Herman replied in a low voice:
"Recently, the Military Intelligence Bureau has increased its screening of people entering Florentia. Patrol teams have been set up 24 hours a day at all ports and stations."
Theodore frowned slightly and nodded:
"I see, you can go down first."
Theodore walked quickly to Kinwording and said in a low voice:
"The people from the Military Intelligence Bureau are coming soon, let's go."
Kinwording's face changed slightly after hearing this, but he quickly concealed it, turned his head and said to Samuel:
"I have prepared a grand banquet for Mr. in the mansion.
Please, Mr. Samuel!"
Samuel was puzzled by the DuPont family's behavior.
Why is picking up a person so sneaky, as if worried about something?
It wasn't like this the last few times he came. His identity can withstand any verification.
However, he did not make a sound, he knew that the other party would give him an explanation sooner or later.
Sure enough, after the two got into a luxurious carriage, Kinwording took the initiative to say:
"Mr. Samuel, I'm sorry for the laugh. The situation in the capital has been a little tense recently, so it's really a last resort."
Samuel said that he understood, and then asked:
"Just now I heard Theodore mention something about the Military Intelligence Bureau. Is it the newly established intelligence department in Effien that you reported some time ago?"
Kinwording nodded solemnly and said:
"That's right, it's them."
A trace of doubt arose in Samuel's heart.
Why would a newly established intelligence department make the dignified Viscount DuPont so nervous?
Could it be that a few ordinary personnel from the Military Intelligence Bureau dare to inspect the Viscount's motorcade?
He also read the report that the DuPont family submitted to Chief Heisenberg some time ago.
He also knew a little about this Military Intelligence Bureau. It was just an intelligence agency with a little more power.
Although the person who endorsed this agency was of high status and power, so what?
Whether a department can truly establish its authority depends not only on the person behind it, but more importantly on the ability of the department itself.
Political affairs have never been about who has someone to rely on or who supports them to gain a foothold.
If you want to establish your authority in an extremely complex political situation, just relying on the Queen and the Prime Minister's words will not work.
Samuel did not think that a newly established intelligence agency could achieve anything.
Even if it has the support of the Queen and the Prime Minister, the two of them cannot cover the sky with one hand in Effien after all.
Taking a step back, hasn't this Military Intelligence Bureau just been established a few days ago?
How could it make a hereditary viscount so afraid?
Kinwording knew what Samuel was thinking.
With his status and status, he would naturally not look down on the intelligence agency of such a small country.
But Kinwording was at the scene at the time, and personally witnessed the Queen's cruel methods, which made him still feel a lingering fear when he recalled it now.
Although he did not collude with the "Black Tomb" that the Queen hated so much.
But what they are doing now is to plot against the entire Corleone royal family together with the Central Empire.
Once this matter is exposed, their fate will be even worse than that of the Collins family.
Kinwording sighed and told Samuel about the recent events in the Effien court.
Samuel had been on his way to Florentia these past few days, so he had not received the latest intelligence.
When he heard about the Effien Queen's actions from Kinwording, he was also stunned.
This woman is too crazy, she actually dared to execute a hereditary viscount of a country in public in front of so many ministers and officials.
It's simply horrifying.
He asked in astonishment:
"Didn't anyone try to persuade her?
Where is your Senate?
Also, she is only the Queen after all, how dare she act like this?"
Kinwording carefully described the scene at the time to him. When he heard that Her Majesty the Queen was able to suppress the entire audience by herself, he was even more frightened and speechless.
Too strong, worthy of being the woman that Her Majesty the Empress has remembered for so many years.
After being silent for a long time, Samuel squeezed out a sentence from his mouth:
"In some ways, your Majesty the Queen is really a love brain!"
