People are on the Ark, assisting Oma Zi-O

After the messenger left, the group walked in the corridor and headed towards the Ark office as agreed.

"You revealed so much at once. Do you hope to spread the word through these people and the infected people in Canaan?"

The shapeshifter looked at the Ark. This publicity was undoubtedly an all-in effort. Whether it was the magical healing factor said to be the art of originium or the existence of the Demon King, it almost indicated that Rhodes Island and the Integration Movement would intervene in the situation on this land in a more powerful way.

Previously, the Reunion Movement had introduced a new policy for the infected in Ursus (Ursus's reform bill for the infected), which had already attracted the attention of most forces on this land. Spies from all parties almost all went to this city of the infected. Although they eventually became fodder for Alina to fill the Ghost Kingdom, it also showed that the Reunion Movement has now almost become the largest representative of the infected on this land.

Now that Rhodes Island has been at the center of controversy because of the third-generation Originium blocker, if the truth about the third-generation Originium blocker and the existence of the Demon King are revealed, it is estimated that this land will be hit by a huge earthquake.

Not only the Reunion Movement but also Rhodes Island, the name Kazdel will once again be caught up in the political vortex of this land.

Of course, for Fangzhou and his people, this game has no place for other countries. Now they are on the stage only to compete with Tracys and Preciouss. As for other countries, for both sides now, they either voluntarily come to the table or voluntarily come to the table.

"Big changes are expected to happen in Victoria soon. After what happened, neither Tracy nor Precious will back down. So, there's no need for us to be timid anymore."

Big changes in Victoria?

Considering Priss's identity, an incredible idea came to the minds of both the shapeshifter and Fremont.

"No way……"

"Yes, that's just the way she is."

As Fang Zhou said this, his eyes seemed to travel through time and space to see the woman who was smiling in the same way.

when!

The iron plate was placed in front of Tracys, and on it a head with white hair and beard and a hideous face came into his eyes.

"The Iron Duke isn't really that iron."

Precious sat with his legs crossed beside Tracy, looking at the head of the Duke of Wellington in front of him.

Wesley Wellington, one of the eight Grand Dukes of Victoria, is a Tara native, but the force he leads is the strongest among the eight Grand Dukes. He is also the one who makes the Scavenger King feel the most pressure among the duke's army currently surrounding Londinium.

But now...

The death knell of the Gallic Empire, the Iron Duke of Victoria... is dead.

Died under the will of the Source Stone.

"As you can see, it's just a snarling little cat. His so-called invincible fleet is nothing more than a paper drum and a wooden horse under the lingering storm."

Tracy glanced at the Originium Will that was wearing the skin of his sister, and a purple light flashed in his eyes.

"Then let's continue our cooperation."

"I like smart people."

Chapter 442 Appetizer: Victoria

"boss."

Several days had passed since Amiya's speech to many patients in Rhodes Island at the Wallpaper Shelter. On that day, the messenger had already sorted out the business situation of Rhodes Island that he had seen while traveling with Ark, as well as its compatibility with various businesses of Kalan Trade, and sent it to Enthiotis.

And of course, there were the things he had heard from Amiya.

Upon hearing this, Ensiódis fell silent for a moment. From the messenger's report, he could sense that two powerful forces were converging and clashing across this land. The nations of the land might not have noticed this trend yet, but from the messenger's report, Ensiódis could clearly sense the impending storm across the land.

There was also the young man that the two so-called hunters were chasing in Kjerag. From the few words they heard, we could tell that the young man was no ordinary Agor, and the same was true for the two women.

Deep Sea Hunter and Hai Si...

This land no longer felt like the land he remembered. The land he had seen while studying abroad in Victoria had already made him anxious about Kjerag's current state, but now he felt that the land seemed to have changed again, and the speed of change was too fast. This time, he could not see anything clearly.

But even so, he still did not lose heart. After all, no matter how the outside world changed, Kjerag would still be the same Kjerag. What he had to do remained unchanged, which was to quickly push Kjerag into integration with the outside world. If necessary, he did not mind using some extreme measures.

But this spirit did not last for many days before it suffered a major blow.

"What?! You said the Duke! Died?!"

The messenger's eyes widened at the call from Enchiodis.

The Duke here naturally refers to the Duke of Caister, one of the eight dukes of the Victorian Empire, who is at the core of the core circle next to Kjerag.

As for why the death of Duke Kaster caused such a strong reaction from the messenger, it was naturally because the development of Kalan trade to its current level, or in other words, Ensiodis could not have reached this point without the support of Duke Kaster.

This does not negate Enthiotis's efforts. The actual connection here is that Duke Caister invested in Enthiotis, a potential seed, in the early days. After all, although Kjerag's development was lagging behind, his position was very important.

It borders Victoria to the south, Letania to the east, Casimir to the north, and Columbia to the west.

It's a clear-cut battleground for four nations. Casimir is relatively passive, having been severely bullied by Ursus, and won't be incentivized to expand its territory anytime soon, but the other three are a bit more uncertain. The Victorian throne has been vacant for 20 years, a politically sensitive period. If anything unusual happened to Kjerag during this period, Enthiotis has no doubt the Duke's warships would be at Kjerag's doorstep the next day. The same is likely true for the other two nations.

To be honest, for the four surrounding countries, Kjerag's meat is not tasty. What's the point of taking it? It is useless except for helping Kjerag to alleviate poverty. However, Kjerag's position is too important, so the unanimous attitude of the four countries is that they can choose not to eat it, but they cannot let others eat it. As a result, although this place is located on a major transportation route, no one has touched it.

But not moving doesn't mean not thinking about it. Duke Kaster is one of those who is thinking about it. I can not eat, but I have to be prepared to eat at any time. So there is such a thing as sponsoring Enchiodis, a young man who came from Kjerag to study abroad.

Of course, this has nothing to do with the fact that the Shivaash family and the Kaster family have some blood relationship. It doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter.

Even now, although Enthiotis has calmed down and focused on working for Kjerag's own development, he still contacts the Duke of Kaster from time to time. After all, even if Kjerag wants to make progress, he can't become a fat man in one bite, and he still needs to find a backer.

but now……

The Duke of Caster is dead.

The two forces sweeping across the earth have begun preparations for a complete confrontation.

Enthyodis inexplicably thought of this after receiving the news of Duke Caister's death.

Considering the information given to him by the messenger, the two terms Sarkaz and Kazdel were mentioned, and of course, the name Tracys.

Tracy.

Two years ago, he led the Kazdel Military Council to victory in the Kazdel Civil War. He was then invited by Victoria to enter Londinium as a mercenary to assist the Londinium nobles in solving some problems.

Then there is no more then.

The Sarkaz occupied Londinium, and the armies of the Eight Dukes stopped outside Londinium.

Other countries had already received this news. Rumors from the outside world made everyone laugh at how the vast Victoria Empire could be controlled by the tiny Sarkaz. And then...

Ahem, you Victoria are still Victoria. Ursus and Letania can laugh at Victoria, but that doesn’t mean you can laugh at Victoria.

In short, the Grand Dukes never admitted that the Sarkaz occupied Londinium. After all, they still have to save face.

Although the Sarkaz have essentially occupied Londinium, I simply refuse to acknowledge their presence. Victoria has extensive experience in this area.

But none of this matters. What matters is that Enthiotis has sensed something wrong. He knows that this land will undergo tremendous changes at a faster rate than he could have imagined. This change will affect the entire land, and even those countries that he once thought were extremely powerful will suffer fatal losses in this change.

But change, too, meant not only harm but also opportunity, and perhaps… he could seize that opportunity for Kjerag.

There was a gleam in Enthyodis's eyes as he recalled the information sent by the messenger in his mind, while the messenger on the opposite side was still waiting for his next instructions.

"boss?"

The dull silence made the messenger feel a little breathless. He didn't think too much about it. He just knew that the mountain that Kalan Trading relied on had collapsed. What should he do next?

But no matter what, the messenger believed that Enthiodis would make the right choice.

"Continue to reach cooperation with Rhodes Island and try to secure more business contracts between us and them. Remember, it must be a confirmed contract. I will give you some bottom lines on the relevant terms. Remember what I say."

"Yes, boss."

In the independent dormitory, the messenger wrote down all of Enchiotis's requests with great speed. After Enchiotis finished speaking, he continued to ask questions with some concern.

"Then, Boss, let's..."

“Rhode Island would be an opportunity.”

Click.

The phone was busy, but the messenger already knew what Enchiodis meant.

But he didn't understand. Although the CEO of this company was the Demon King of Kazdel, and although it had inextricable ties with the first infected city of Ursus, one of the most powerful military nations on this earth, and had some close cooperation with Longmen, the only external trade port in Da Yan, and also had some relations with Leithania, but... oh, it seemed that there was no need for but.

The messenger had to admit that Rhodes Island did have some capital, but it was too scattered. Could it really become the next opportunity for Kalan Trade? Similar to the opportunity for the Duke of Kaster?

The messenger expressed doubt.

Just when the messenger was doubting his life, other countries on this land also received some intelligence, but compared with the one from Enthiotis, theirs was obviously more comprehensive.

"The Duke of Wellington is dead."

"The Duke of Caister is dead."

"The Duke of Godottin, the Duke of Ackborne, the Duke of Fife, the Duke of Ashworth, and... the Duke of Windermere."

The list was placed on the desks of the decision-makers of various countries. Their eyes flickered with disbelief. A long time had passed since they received the news, but they still couldn't believe that those people who held such great power in Victoria, even at this moment when they were completely waiting for someone to take the crown and become the sole ruler, would actually...

"Including the Duke of Cumberland who passed away earlier, all eight of Victoria's Grand Dukes have now been wiped out."

"The most unbelievable thing is probably that the Duke of Wellington is also dead."

"Who did it?"

"Those Sarkaz?"

"Are you kidding me? That group of people can't even afford a high-speed battleship, and you're telling me they can kill seven Grand Dukes in one day?"

Regarding the voice that made the speculation, almost everyone said it was impossible, absolutely impossible.

How could the Sarkaz, who were oppressed by the multinational coalition forces just two hundred years ago and who had lost countless Sarkaz in the civil war two years ago, be the mastermind behind the death of the Grand Duke? It's impossible, absolutely impossible.

"And the causes of death of the eight grand dukes were surprisingly consistent."

In the court of Leithania, the electors who were urgently summoned grasped the special point in the intelligence that was passed on to them very accurately. They were very familiar with that trace, the trace of fear that made them remember it vividly and was firmly engraved in the depths of their souls.

"They were crushed to death by the sudden, massive Originium storm."

According to the intelligence transmitted back, the Duke of Wellington, the most powerful among the eight grand dukes, was on the flagship of his own dreadnought fleet at the time. The entire flagship was surrounded by numerous high-speed warships of the dreadnought fleet, which could almost be said to be the most stringent protection measure on this land.

Anyone who approaches the fleet's flagship with ill intentions will be completely destroyed by the high-speed battleship's guns.

However, even under the perfect protection of such a huge fleet, the Duke of Wellington still died tragically during the cruise.

Because this time he was killed not by an assassin from some country or a hired killer, but by a natural disaster.

Based on the intelligence transmitted back and the actual analysis of the natural disaster, the conclusion was drawn that this sudden and super-large natural disaster destroyed the entire Dreadnought Fleet in an instant.

The entire Dreadnought Fleet, including the flagship, became scrap metal under the Originium storm.

And the most frightening thing is that although they did not get close to and destroy the fleet because of the active ore particles, they were able to see the scene of that place through the telescope.

Soldiers, they saw countless soldiers who originally belonged to the Dreadnought Fleet.

However, at this moment, these soldiers have lost their lively appearance as human beings. They stand there with hideous faces and bared fangs and claws, and their originally human skin has turned into black crystals.

They became Originium.

It is also a highly activated Originium.

Witch King.

Almost the moment they saw the description of those things in the report, all the Leithanian officials, even the twin queens, instantly thought of these two words.

Unleash a storm of Origin Stone to crush your enemies and cast spells that brutally transform them into deformed statues, or transform them into Infested to serve as your bio-batteries.

It's so similar, it's so similar.

Could it be that the Witch King was resurrected and killed all eight Grand Dukes?

How could it be possible? No matter how I thought about it, it was impossible.

The officials of Leithania tried their best to comfort themselves, but their trembling eyes and shaking bodies showed that they were in great fear at the moment.

If the Witch-King truly returns...

No, no, no, that's impossible. How could a guy who's been dead for over ten or nearly twenty years suddenly come back to life? This is too unscientific!

The ministers, officials and even the electors of Leithnia were still hypnotizing themselves, but the twin queens looked at each other in bewilderment, because they had seen Franz Utica, who had transformed into the pseudo-Witch King by absorbing the power of the echoes of the world through the work of the shapeshifter.

Could it be that the remnants of the Witch King had successfully experimented with the Echoes of the World? But based on the intelligence they knew, that was impossible. After all, those remnants had been completely wiped out by them, and the remaining two or three kittens couldn't cause any trouble at all, and were still hiding from them.

Then there must be other reasons.

And even the Witch King wouldn't be able to do this.

Turning over the other reports, the Twin Queens narrowed their eyes. This was the most confusing point for them and the rulers of other countries.

If it was an accidental and sudden natural disaster, it might be able to explain the death of one or two dukes, but seven grand dukes were all killed by the Originium disaster storm. This cannot be explained by the word "accident".

Faced with this information, the many doubts in it are no longer something they can figure out at the moment, but even if they can't figure it out, they can all realize that this land is about to usher in the most drastic changes since the Battle of the Four Emperors and the destruction of the Gallic Empire.

In this drastic change, the former old empire of Victoria, having lost its Lion King and eight grand dukes, can now be said to have followed in the footsteps of Gaul.

Obviously, in "Either Be Consciously at the Table" or "Or Be Consciously at the Table", the unconscious Victoria became the appetizer of change.

In the Norbert district, the white-haired Filin sat dejectedly in the corner of the alley.
