Deposed Crown Prince: After three years of service on the frontier, the entire court knelt and begge

After listening to the Fourth Director's words, Yin Pan'er nodded: "I had never heard of this before...until I saw it with my own eyes...Fourth Director, I can confirm it!"

After hearing Yin Pan'er's words, the four council members asked solemnly, "Are you sure?"

Yin Pan'er nodded to the Fourth Pivot Leader and then said, "Of course... I can certainly confirm that..."

It was clear from the expressions of the four cardinals that their emotions were quite complex.

After pondering for a while, the four councilors slowly spoke.

"Do you know where those weapons come from?"

Following Xiao Ce's advice, Yin Pan'er shook her head: "I don't know, it seems they came from outside... Boudica doesn't seem to know the specifics either..."

The fourth council member said to Yin Pan'er, "Acting Director Yin, do you have those weapons with you? Or have you seen those weapons before? Is there any way we can make them?"

After listening to the Fourth Cardinal's words, Yin Pan'er shook her head: "Fourth Cardinal, I've seen him once, but I don't know if he can be created..."

The four pivots nodded:

"Alright, Agent Yin, thank you for the news... You can leave now!"

The fact that the Fourth Privy Councilor suddenly asked Yin Pan'er to leave left everyone present extremely puzzled and surprised.

This includes Yin Pan'er.

After all, the Fourth Cardinal had spoken up for her earlier.

Yin Pan'er thought she could get them to listen in no matter what.

Unexpectedly, they were allowed to leave immediately.

"Fourth Councilor, I need to wait here. If you require..."

Yin Pan'er clearly wanted to try, but before he could finish speaking...

The fourth council member interrupted coldly, "Don't you understand me? I said no, you can leave now..."

Yin Pan'er didn't dare to say anything more at this moment, and simply bowed and left.

Yin Pan'er was now wondering if she had said something wrong.

After they left, Yin Pan'er looked at Xiao Ce questioningly.

Xiao Ce smiled at Yin Pan'er and then said, "It's nothing!"

Yin Pan'er looked at Xiao Ce and said, "My intention was... that person was quite friendly to me..."

Xiao Ce said to Yin Pan'er, "These kinds of people, whatever they show is what they want you to see... Similarly, they will never show what they don't want you to see..."

After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Yin Pan'er said, "What do you mean? You're saying he's acting? Deliberately showing friendliness towards me?"

Xiao Ce smiled and nodded at Yin Pan'er.

Yin Pan'er looked at Xiao Ce with even more confusion and said, "Then tell me, what is his purpose?"

Xiao Ce shook his head: "I don't know... It's alright, don't worry. You saw it yourself this time, we also gained something..."

After listening to Xiao Ce's words, Yin Pan'er asked in confusion, "Harvest? What harvest?"

"So, even within their Illuminati, there are many rifts... I suspect that the Fourth Cardinal's decision to let us leave might not be a bad thing..."

"Did you see that? When those people from the twelve families were questioning him, I could clearly sense that he was extremely displeased..."

Upon hearing Xiao Ce's words, Yin Pan'er asked in surprise, "He was wearing a mask, how did you know?"

Xiao Ce smiled, then said mysteriously to Yin Pan'er, "I feel..."

As the two were talking, Fak, who was waiting in the cabin, saw them coming and said with a surprised look, "Agent Yin, how come you're back so quickly?"

Yin Pan'er then recounted what had just happened to Fak.

Fak nodded: "It seems you've completed your mission... Acting Agent Yin, you seem a little disappointed. Were you planning to stay over there?"

This guy is pretty good at reading people's expressions.

At that moment, Yin Pan'er didn't hide her thoughts from Fak, nodding, "I was indeed curious... mainly to see if I could take another step forward after this... now it seems I was just overthinking it..."

When Fak heard Yin Pan'er say that, he just smiled awkwardly. Even if he wanted to help with something like that, it would be very difficult for him.

Just then, Xiao Ce said to Fak, "Fak, what kind of person do you think your council member is?"

Xiao Ce asked this question entirely because of the loud laughter of the Fourth Director just now.

Xiao Ce recognized the voice very well.

In fact, Xiao Ce had been recalling the whole time. He was absolutely certain he had heard that smile before.

Moreover, the voice wasn't just similar; it was exactly the same.

But Xiao Ce seemed to have a mental block; he tried hard to think, but he just couldn't figure it out.

Previously, Fak would definitely have glanced at Yin Pan'er to see what she meant before deciding whether to answer Xiao Ce's question.

However, after spending so much time with Xiao Ce, Fak felt that Yin Pan'er should consult Xiao Ce on everything.

Fak knew that Xiao Ce was definitely not a simple guard.

Not to mention, Xiao Ce will have to help him detoxify in the future.

Therefore, Fak stopped wasting words and directly answered Xiao Ce, "The Fourth Grand Master is a very strict person... with a very cold personality, and usually doesn't smile..."

"What? You're saying your Fourth Councilor is stern and aloof?" Yin Pan'er spoke up before Xiao Ce could even open his mouth.

Because the fourth councilor they had just met had seemed very enthusiastic and had even been laughing out loud from time to time...

It's obvious that they're not the same kind of people as Fak is talking about.

Fak listened to Yin Pan'er's doubts and looked at her strangely: "That's right, Agent Yin, he's a stern and cold person... Although he always wears a mask and I can't see his expression, his tone of voice has always been very calm. You can hardly even know his temperament... However, I've never heard him laugh..."

Seeing Yin Pan'er's expression after hearing his words, Fak quickly asked, "Agent Yin, what's wrong? Is there a problem?"

After listening to Fak's words, Yin Pan'er shook her head and said, "The problem? There's no problem... it's just that the Fourth Cardinal you mentioned that we saw earlier is completely different from what you described..."

Fak looked surprised when he heard Yin Pan'er say that, and then said, "Different? How are they different? Agent Yin, can you describe it to me?"

Yin Pan'er nodded and spoke frankly without hiding anything.

After saying that, Fak almost instinctively said, "Impossible... that can't be the Fourth Cardinal..."

The two were not surprised by what Fak said.

"So, that's a fake?" Yin Pan'er asked.

Xiao Ce continued, saying to Yin Pan'er, "It's not necessarily a fake! It could be an agent... After all, everyone's wearing a mask, so it's hard to tell them apart..."

After the two finished speaking, they looked at Fak.

Fak was deep in thought.

Xiao Ce said to Fuck, "Fuck, do you think it might be an agent?"

Fak nodded and said to Xiao Ce, "Although it's unlikely, there doesn't seem to be any other possibility... I guess so."

Xiao Ce asked Fak, "Has your master ever used a proxy?"

Fak gave an awkward laugh: "I don't know. All I know is that what I've seen is something I've never seen before..."

Xiao Ce raised an eyebrow: "Then let's not think about it anymore... whatever..."

Yin Pan'er asked Fak, "Fak, do you think we can leave now?"

Fak, not quite sure himself, said directly to Yin Pan'er, "Agent Yin, don't worry. Now that we've finished talking to you... I think you'll be allowed to leave..."

Yin Pan'er nodded. To be honest, she was more curious about what had happened in the cabin after they left.

Actually, after they left...

Everyone in those rooms was equally astonished, after all, they had all just assumed that Yin Pan'er might have already been subdued by the Fourth Cardinal...

However, after questioning Yin Pan'er, they let her leave directly, which was indeed unexpected.

After watching Yin Pan'er leave.

The fourth councilor straightened his body, then coughed lightly and scanned the people in the room.

After scanning the crowd, the Fourth Privy Councilor said calmly, "Gentlemen, what are your thoughts on what Agent Yin just said?"

After hearing what the Four Cardinals said, these people looked at each other.

None of the twelve families dared to speak.

They still focused their attention on the two presidents.

Ed White spoke first, after all, Yin Pan'er was his agent, and in a sense, she represented him.

Therefore, he has to speak out about this matter, regardless of the circumstances.

After standing up, Ed White bowed to the Fourth Cardinal: "Fourth Cardinal, I believe Yin Pan'er's words are trustworthy...and logical...she has no reason or motive to lie to us. Most importantly, what she said actually corresponds to everything I've gathered on my way here..."

"The information obtained from the patriarchs of various families should correspond to what we've learned. Otherwise, the patriarchs would have immediately refuted her. Clearly, everyone agreed with Yin Pan'er's words and had no objections..."

"President Victor King, what do you think...? I know there's some competition between us. But I want to say that our competition is peaceful. The Illuminati is already facing a significant challenge... so I think it's unwise for us to fight amongst ourselves right now..."

"After all, we just learned from Agent Yin that they possess far superior weaponry compared to us. This realization, to put it bluntly, is no less significant than it was during our early revolutionary period when we first acquired firearms... We need to take this seriously, otherwise, the days when the regimes we overthrew before the Illuminati will be the days we are in now..."

"Therefore, especially in times like these, we should set aside past grievances and join hands..."

Ed White was very clever; he put these things directly on the table.

Moreover, since it was being discussed in front of the four cardinal council members, even if Victor King had many opinions, it meant that he was speaking out.

However, Viktor King only dared to keep these opinions to himself and did not dare to refuse them outright.

Victor King nodded to Ed White: "Ed, you're right. If you're so aware of this, then naturally I am too... Now we're definitely united against a common enemy. Besides, I've never really considered you an opponent. After all, I've been in charge of Western affairs, while you've been the one losing battles abroad, unable to defeat others, and only taking advantage of your own people..."

After Viktor King replied, he didn't forget to retort...

Ed White simply smiled, not continuing the topic, but instead returning to the previous question: "So, you have no objection to the question raised by the Fourth Cardinal, right...?"

After hearing Ed White's words, Victor King nodded: "I agree with what Agent Yin said; most of the issues are correct. However, I can't be sure if there's anything being concealed or hidden..."

Seeing that the two guild leaders had reached a consensus, the other family patriarchs also nodded in agreement, thus expressing their stance.

After listening to them finish speaking, the four council members nodded.

"Alright! Then each of you tell me what to do. Let's proceed from here..."

After the Fourth Master asked this question, the patriarchs of the twelve families all fell silent and stopped talking.

After all, these people are all shrewd... Given the current situation, what they will do next is pretty much a foregone conclusion, isn't it?

Everyone knew perfectly well that it meant contributing money and effort to suppress the bandits.

However, they were all unwilling to do so, since Lingas City was under the control of the Illuminati at that time.

They had already spent a huge amount of money in Lingas, and now they were the ones who suffered the biggest losses.

Now, it should be the Illuminati headquarters that comes up with a solution, so they all instinctively lowered their heads.

No one was willing to speak up. Isn't it just a matter of whoever speaks up being the one who suffers in these situations?

Even the two presidents were now bowing their heads...
