Chapter 336: Dark Lord Bethcode
"Do you remember what Onmamba was called?"
"The Blood King?"
Sean, who was interested in Angelica's question, was the first to speak out.
"What did he say when we killed Cedre in Marian Hall?"
"The Dark Lord?"
Comerina, standing by, thought for a moment before speaking. Because it had happened some time ago, Chief Qiu's memory of the situation was a bit hazy. But for Comerina, it didn't make much of a difference.
"Bethcode's title of apostle is very similar to the place he's currently fleeing to, isn't it?"
"As a king, you must have your own forces and army, just like the monsters that Ong Mamba led."
"So, we can be bold and assume that the so-called Dark Lord is actually the power that Bethcode possessed when he was an apostle."
"Although I'm a little surprised by Bethcode's power, is there any connection?"
After hearing this, Chief Qiu became more and more confused.
"Back then, the battlefield of the Black Dragon War was located in the territory of the Dark Lord."
"And that battle easily destroyed a human knight order. You can imagine the devastation it caused."
"If this battle took place in Holy Heaven, I think the current Cassius royal family would no longer exist."
"Even this sacred paradise will probably need to be rebuilt."
At this point, Angelica pointed out the key point.
"According to the records I have seen."
"At the beginning, Lord Karaqiu described it."
"Led by the vanguard of the Royal Knights led by Bethcode, they bypassed most of the peripheral monsters without making any sacrifices. They only had to make some sacrifices at a few key checkpoints to eliminate the monsters that blocked their way."
"That's why they retained most of their strength to face the Black Dragon back then."
"And this war is also known as the Dragon Raid."
Angelica's analysis reached this point, and most people understood. Bethcode had somehow managed to land the Black Dragon in his territory, sacrificing his own territory to withstand the losses on the battlefield. It was Bethcode's familiarity with his territory that allowed them to easily sneak in and attack the Black Dragon.
"So that's how it is. In order to preserve the power of humanity, he sacrificed his own forces."
"No wonder Elena said before that Bethcode was a traitor to their side."
After hearing this, Qiu Chief also had some associations. However, Qiu Chief's associations were only slightly related.
"Brother Qiuqiu, your guess may be correct."
"However, judging by what happened back then, Bethcode had already betrayed the Dragon's followers before the Black Dragon War."
"However, what we did back then was a good thing for the human side that launched the surprise attack."
"But I have to say, this also allowed most of the monsters in his force to survive."
"Otherwise, there wouldn't be the current problem, which prevents the route between Heaven and the Kedra checkpoint from being opened."
"And if we want to hide back at the Prophet, we'll have to face all the monsters in his territory."
Angelica looked upset and told the reason for the problem she mentioned at the beginning.
If they simply fled in this direction, the prophet might be taken elsewhere by Bethcode. However, Bethcode was clearly heading to his home base. The only option left for them was war.
After analyzing the current cause and effect, Qiu and his group quickly returned to the hotel. Once there, they still had to recount the progress of the matter to Etia and the others who were staying at the hotel.
"It's a headache. If we want to attack the Dark Lord's territory, we can only look to the Cassius royal family."
"But right now, our team has no right to meet with the royal family."
"Looks like I have to contact the teacher to see if she has any solutions."
In Angelica's room, after she finished explaining what had happened before, she told the team's next action goal.
But soon, the problems facing Angelica were solved.
When everyone temporarily separated and took care of their own affairs, the guard Raul came to the hotel again.
Apparently, the actions of Chief Qiu and his group were being secretly observed by several major forces in the royal city. Shortly after Chief Qiu and his group returned, the Cassius royal family, having received the news, sent someone to inquire about the situation.
When Chief Qiu and Angelica arrived at the palace hall, the people waiting for them were still the same ones from before.
As soon as they met, Stuart asked about the previous events. After all, as soon as Qiu Chief and his men arrived, something unexpected happened. By the time they sent their capable men there, Qiu Chief and his men had already left. The people who had gone there had found nothing useful except a bunch of pitted traces of battle.
Faced with this situation, Qiu and Angelica were already accustomed to it. Of course, some things that should be concealed still needed to be processed a little.
"Are you saying that the Black Knight who kidnapped the prophet has fled to the territory of the Dark Lord?"
After hearing this, Stuart also felt a headache.
"It seems that I need to find a few teams of elite soldiers to sneak into the territory of the Dark Lord and find the whereabouts of the Prophet."
Stuart was already worried about the royal family's lack of troops, especially the scarcity of high-ranking professionals. And this time, sending troops to find the prophet would likely involve sacrificing some elite men. The thought of this not only gave Stuart a headache, but also a heartache.
"Your Majesty, should we recall General Douglas at this time?"
"Let the general lead the elite soldiers of the royal city to attack the territory of the Dark Lord and rescue the prophet."
"Furthermore, after winning this battle, Holy Heaven will be directly connected to the Kedra checkpoint."
“By then, the reputation of the Cassius royal family will be sung by all of humanity, and even the royal city will be able to embrace new opportunities for development.”
"After all, relying solely on airships, there are too few humans traveling here from the Western Road, and even many goods are difficult to transport."
Compared to Stewart's idea, Ignacio directly made a suggestion to Cassius.
Stuart couldn't help but feel happy after hearing this. He had only considered the losses before, but forgot the gains after winning this battle.
Angelica on the side looked at Ignacio meaningfully.
If this move had been proposed by Karaan or Duke Stewart, Angelica wouldn't have given it much thought. But if it had been Ignacio, Angelica felt it was an attempt to create internal friction between the human forces and their traitorous apostles.
After all, Angelica's analysis of many aspects in the past showed that Ignacio was a lurker of the Dragon's followers hidden among the human upper echelons.
However, they were just an ordinary group of adventurers and had no ability or evidence to prove or expose Ignacio's identity.
Although Ignacio was unsightly, he enjoyed a high reputation in the Holy Heaven. If not handled properly, the human heart would suffer first.
