Then, he heard Chen Zhou sigh imperceptibly.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with what I said?"
"That's not it."
Chen Zhou raised his head, his smile unusually gentle. "I just find it ironic that you Victorian aristocrats are so hateful, yet so patriotic."
"Disgusting?" Aledae's smile froze slightly.
"Of course it's abominable."
Chen Zhou stared at her and smiled. "You nobles, you are digging into Tara's corner while destroying Victoria's foundation. Your wealth, your manors, coats, perfumes, and fine wines are like poisonous bacteria, parasitic on a country that is becoming increasingly thin. You are the enemy of the country."
Aledai swallowed silently, then retorted:
"Your Highness Chen Zhou, you are too one-size-fits-all. There are good people among the nobles."
"What a bullshit! It wouldn't be too much to kill all the nobles!"
Mandela has an extreme dislike for the nobility.
Chen Zhou touched her head and comforted her.
"You came here, didn't you just want to say you're a good noble?"
"But I have never betrayed my country."
"If King Aslan hadn't died, if the Sarkaz hadn't entered Londinium, would you still be the compassionate person you are now?"
Chen Zhou said with a hint of sarcasm, "I once heard a palace guard say that King Aslan's young daughter needed to hold a tribute glass bird in her arms to fall asleep. I also heard a gardener say that the seeds of a cluster of golden flowers at Cumberland Manor were worth five years' salary for an ordinary worker."
"It's only the national hatred and family feuds that have awakened you. If none of this had happened, you would just be part of the prosperity of Londinium. You wouldn't even look down upon the blood and tears of the Tara people, the cries of the infected, or all the oppressed factory workers."
"If you had never been a wanderer, would you have looked down at them?"
Looking at the young heir, Aledae Cumberland asked back.
Silence enveloped the dining table in the corner.
Ahmoni and Mandela looked at Chen Zhou, neither of them dared to speak.
Then I saw Chen Zhou lighting a cigarette. There was no anger on his face, but a very calm expression.
"I will, because I'm different from all of you."
He looked at Aledae and said something that struck them as both absurd and terrifying, "I came to Terra not to enjoy peace, but to wage war."
Chen Zhou never expected that red light that would appear like lightning and illuminate the whole world would appear in Terra.
But he knew the direction of civilization.
Seeing that the topic was becoming obscure, Chen Zhou skipped it and asked her why she came.
"Your Highness Chen Zhou, I heard that you have obtained the key to the Tomb of the Kings. Rather than waiting for you to come to me, I would rather show up on my own initiative."
"You're very sensible and saved me the trouble of threatening you."
The location of the Tombs of the Kings is one of Londinium's lesser-known secrets.
This secret was not known to the Duke, not to mention that the King of Advancement had only been there once when he was a child. Among them, Wellington, due to his family background, had more say in military affairs, and was excluded from other aspects by the nobles, so he was also unaware of it.
As for the Sarkaz, perhaps Tracy knew about it, but since it concerns the Breath of Kings, Chen Zhou could not ask him.
Looking at the city of Londinium, threatening the Duke of Cumberland is probably the most convenient way to find the Tombs of the Kings.
"But I'm curious, what is your purpose? In other words, what do you want from me?"
"It's not me." Aledae said weakly, "It's the Duke of Caister. She said you'll have to come see her sooner or later. This is her way of showing goodwill."
It is difficult for Aledae to comment on these dukes.
I heard that they contacted each other and wanted to kill Chen Zhou, but the problem was that they couldn't find a way to kill Chen Zhou.
Some have suggested looking in Colombia, where technology is advanced and there might be targeted weapons. Others suggest the Agor civilization is several levels higher than the Terran nations, and that arms dealers there could be contacted.
"That's in line with her style, but even if I don't accept her favor, I'll find her sooner or later."
It seems that it is impossible to deceive the Breath of the Kings, so I plan to cooperate.
After saying that, Chen Zhou checked the time, stood up and said, "There's no time to lose, let's go now."
Just when the few of them had not walked far out of the door, a red light flashed in Chen Zhou's eyes. With the same observation Haki, the same form, he sensed the same thing.
——Someone got into his own shadow and peeked at him in a very subtle way.
No, do you Terrans have some kind of voyeurism?
One after another, playing with shadows is amazing, right?!
But, I also gained the ability of the wife's honey...well, Mrs. Inès.
Chen Zhou was a little angry. Without Mandela and the others noticing, his golden dragon tail naturally dropped down, touched the ground, and fell into the shadow.
Before the other party could react, Chen Zhou stretched out his long and slippery dragon tail and snaked it inch by inch towards the peeper in tight leather pants.
Since you want to hide in the shadows and peek quietly, then I'll have some fun with you.
Ascalon.
Chapter 61: The Palace of the Dead Shakes in Laughter
It's just that the timing isn't right now, and Ascalon isn't Chen Zhou's type. But the peeping still needs to be settled.
After tying up the other person with his tail, Chen Zhou floated some ropes over from nearby and carried them into the shadows.
At the same time, small hands emerged from the tip of the tail, and they quickly tied Askalon into a tortoise shell bind, and then threw her here.
Askalon was shocked. Chen Zhou moved too quickly and she was tied up tightly while she was still considering whether to escape.
It was obvious that Chen Zhou had the ability to manipulate shadows... Just how much Originium skills did he master?!
Of course there will be more and more!
After upgrading his Originium skills obtained from Inès, Chen Zhou successfully saw into her heart.
Askalon's major is smoke. She usually lurks in the shadows in the sun, and darkness is the best time for her to show her skills.
Mrs. Inès, Hedley's fiancée, is still better. Compared to Ascalon, who is good at assassination and reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance, her Originium skills satisfy Chen Zhou more.
"Have you discovered me a long time ago?" Askalon asked coldly after being tied up.
Rhodes Island SWEEP has a special training program where operators hone their reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance capabilities by tracking Askalon, with a target duration of one week.
Unfortunately, the earliest record-holder, Ines from the Tower of Babel era, was discovered by her after following her for half a day. The current record-breaker is Hong, but his stint was also short-lived.
Chen Zhou discovered his existence almost in an instant, which really surprised Askalon.
“Whose voice?!”
Hearing the unfamiliar female voice, Mandela's guard suddenly became full, and he immediately cast his eyes towards Aledae, suspecting that this was an ambush set by this woman.
But Alda was also at a loss, wondering if these were people sent by the Duke of Caster.
Upon hearing this, Chen Zhou's eyes became somewhat distant. Ever since the battle with Hei Shan, he had understood the essence of survival.
Just like the ability of the Hazoku Yungui fruit in One Piece, the strong men of Terra also possess various incredible abilities. If they do not improve their reconnaissance capabilities, they may not even know how they died in the future.
So he kept his Observation Hakimi activated to a minimum level every day. This was not without effect. In the beginning, he felt dizzy after maintaining it for an hour, but after four months, he could easily keep his Observation Hakimi activated around the clock.
As for people, no matter which world they are in, if they persist in doing something, they will definitely achieve results.
He kept moving forward under the pressure of survival. He practiced regardless of wind, rain, or whether he was sick or not. He sensed the flowers and plants, the insects and fish. There were not so many enemies in Longmen, so he went to the downtown to listen to the bizarre atmosphere.
This wasn't without effect. From locating the enemy's traces to creating a dynamic map of pedestrians' auras in his mind, from tracking the traces of flying insects to illuminating the entire natural world with vivid life in his consciousness, his perception range expanded from a single street to an area, and then to an entire moving city...
Chen Zhou paused for a moment, and with a thought, he packed up Askalon and sent it into the sky, then continued forward.
"Who knows."
Perhaps in the end, everything will be reconstructed in his mind.
Seeing that Chen Zhou did not explain, Mandela and Ahmoni had no choice but to follow him in disappointment.
Everyone walked on the ancient brick road. Under Aledai's guidance, Chen Zhou kicked open a blocked brick wall.
"That's a bit too noisy." Aledai wiped the sweat off her forehead and looked under the masonry. "The road to the Tombs of the Kings is right below."
Aledai led everyone down the iron ladder, little by little in the dim light. Finally, a huge underground structure slowly unfolded in front of Chen Zhou and others.
"The underground passages form the skeleton of Terra's largest city." Aledai couldn't help but feel a little proud when introducing this place.
"Looking like this now, doesn't it mean that Victoria's spine has been broken by the Sarkaz?"
Mandela suddenly realized.
Aleda pursed her lips. What a lovely little girl, it's a pity she's not mute.
After walking along the passage for a long time, I finally saw a majestic gray underground palace at the end of the passage.
Nearly a hundred meters high, black stone pillars supported the ancient vault. Gazing upward, one felt a sense of vastness. Like holy light, white light focused in front of the underground palace's gate, illuminating the entire vast space with a three-dimensional effect. In the center of the distant stone steps, a torch burned eternally.
"Your Highness Chen Zhou, the tombs of the kings are ahead." Aledai's voice echoed in the underground palace.
Looking at the ancient door in front of him, Chen Zhou was excited and full of passion.
"This is the place where the kings rest. In the past thousand years, I may be one of the few Tara people who have been able to set foot here."
"Given your background, you should be the first Tara Red Dragon to step into the Tomb of Kings." Aledai's tone was a little complicated.
"How's it going, Chen Zhou?" Mandela was obviously very excited. "Descending to the Tomb of Kings as the Lord of Tara?"
"Great! I'm even happier when I think that the Breath of Kings, the symbol of Victoria's royal power, will also fall into my hands. Hehehe——"
"Well, Your Highness Chen Zhou... please don't describe the treasure of the Vina family like that."
Chen Zhou's tone made Aledae feel inexplicably uncomfortable, as if the Breath of Kings had been done to her.
"Hey, if you don't understand, don't talk nonsense." Chen Zhou was in a good mood at the moment and didn't pursue Aledae's transgression. "The Breath of Kings doesn't belong to Aslan."
"Not Aslan's?" asked Aledhe.
As the most trusted earl of the Aslan royal family, the Cumberland family knew the origin of the Breath of Kings.
This sword of Aslan's ancestor is said to have been made for Aslan by the gods of the grassland. An ancient Pasha once used it to chop off the head of the king of goblins.
But now Chen Zhou says it doesn't belong to Aslan?
"of course."
Chen Zhou stepped forward in this deadly underground palace, and asked Mandela and Ahmoni:
"This is merely an Originium stabilizer from a previous civilization. It later fell into the hands of the Calendar King and was forged into the Breath of Kings. I know you feel sorry for the King of Propulsion, but this thing never belonged to them in the first place."
He looked at Aledae and said earnestly, "I've heard that a true monarch can inspire his own courage and grow stronger. But your Wang Weina lacks this heroic spirit. How can she grow into a rival who can rival me? I hope Wang Weina will not become someone without courage and who only relies on external things!"
Chen Zhou took out the key and prepared to open the door to the Tomb of the Kings.
He is a man of great character, and he feels that this thing is destined for him.
"Is that right?"
It seems a little bit right, oh no, right, right, oh no.
Aleda listened to Chen Zhou's explanation, pondered for a while, and suddenly came to her senses, "The story you made up is quite unique."
"Look at you, you still haven't turned this corner."
Chen Zhou nodded at Aledai with a look of disappointment and sighed, "As expected, it's still too much of a stretch to expect a subject to understand the king's demeanor."
"Let me put it this way. If you want to give her the Breath of the Kings, you're harming her. The process of becoming stronger is like reforging the Breath of the Kings, turning dull iron into a sharp sword. It's like the process of meeting a woman, getting to know her, and then falling in love and marrying her. It's a process of constant adaptation, constant exploration, and improving your body's compatibility, ultimately taking on your own shape."
"You want Vina to get this sword. Isn't it just to become stronger by holding someone else's wife? A complete transformation should allow her to constantly temper herself, constantly polish and hone herself, and cultivate great qualities. The same goes for finding a partner. You should find a young man or a young heroine to transform into your own shape!"
The silence in the underground palace was deafening.
Except for Ahmoni, the other two suddenly felt a sense of awe.
Mandela leaned on his staff, feeling secretly delighted, and secretly took notes:
Today, in front of the Tomb of the Kings, Chen Zhou, the Star Fury, inadvertently revealed a shortcut to becoming stronger. Hehehe, I've made it! One day, when the dragon finds water, I will definitely make Chen Zhou bow down to me, wag his tail and beg for mercy, completely adapt, be thoroughly explored, and completely transform into my shape!
"So that's how it is." Alda stroked her chin and pondered for a moment. "Indeed, Vina is too weak at heart. She easily took control of the country's most important asset. At this stage, it's like a child carrying gold in a busy market..."
Ahmonie seemed to be lost in thought. She spoke weakly, pointing out the blind spot: "Leader, if you want the Breath of Kings, don't you also want to embrace someone else's wife?"
The familiar silence, the familiar deafening sound.
