Chapter 339: Lots of Mysteries
“Isn’t this just a fool?”
Sean came to a conclusion.
Bai Ye didn't even refute him - you know, this princess still cares about the reputation of the royal family. Just like Bai Zhan colluded with the mole, she still used to call him eldest brother. Usually Sean is not very fond of the emperor. She often points it out when showing respect.
It can be seen that what the emperor did this time made many people dissatisfied.
"We are fighting on the front line, doing these things that waste people and money, but my godfather and other ministers didn't point it out? With my godfather's character, I'm afraid he will have to quarrel with the emperor." Sean added.
Bai Ye said quietly: "We've already had an argument, and we almost made a move..."
Sean: "..."
As expected of Bai Youming.
Bai Ye sighed: "The emperor's uncle strongly opposed it and even rushed forward, and the other ministers were similar. However, my father insisted on having his own way..."
Her eyes gradually dimmed a bit: "To be able to make my father not hesitate to fall out with his uncle... this can only mean..."
Sean shrugged his shoulders: "You should seek medical treatment if you are in a hurry."
The emperor of this empire is very famous, but now he has reached the point where he doesn’t care about the war on the front line, national policies, or his children’s struggle for power. He even thinks of building any sick statues at this time, which can only show one thing. thing.
The emperor's deadline is approaching, and now it is time to try any method.
Bai Ye knew what Sean meant, and she frowned: "Now that the order has been issued, he will naturally be responsible for the suggestions made by the eldest brother. With the father as his backing, no one can do anything Stop...I looked at the list of the first batch of materials...it was shocking."
Sean pursed his lips: "There is no way, let him build it, I just don't know why your brother does these things."
Bai Ye shook his head: "It's not a problem of construction anymore, this is Take a look at the first batch of lists."
After taking the manual, Sean, who didn't care much at first, gradually narrowed his eyes. Finally, he shook the book and said silently: "Is this a statue? What about Jianguo? "
The words "shocking" in Bai Ye's words are an understatement. The content on this list alone is enough to build a huge city-state, and it also contains many extremely valuable items. Material.
“Whose statue can use a hundred energy core sequences?” Sean said speechlessly, “The empire’s most high-end energy cannon, one cannon uses three cores, and a hundred thousand troops can also It’s only equipped with fifty doors. Why, is this statue supposed to be the lighting equipment for the entire imperial capital?”
It was obvious at a glance that the eldest prince was lining his own pockets. Although Sean would be a super bug if he were in that position, Bai Zhan was indeed a bit shameless.
Bai Ye said quietly: "This is only the first batch... Some people have already reported that the resources on the list are too huge, but my father ignored them at all, and instead asked the eldest brother to speed up the construction progress."< br>
"Speed up?"
Bai Ye nodded: "In the morning meeting, the first batch of resources has begun to leave the warehouse, and the eldest brother has even led people to clear the area - by the way, This matter also has something to do with you."
"With me?" Sean didn't understand for a moment, he was still a 'dead person', what could it have to do with him.
Bai Ye said quietly: "The statue was placed at the original headquarters of Golden Dawn, which is the new territory under your name. After your death, the construction speed of the territory was slowed down. However, judging from time, this The only foundation of your territory should have been demolished as well."
Shaun was stunned for a moment, and then he cursed: "The dog emperor, the stupid eldest prince, did such a thing of giving birth to a child without an asshole! "
When you first found out, there was no such big movement...
Bai Ye was speechless for a while, and then sighed: "Father has become possessed... Big brother's actions are almost yang. He is trying to dig out the foundation of the empire, but with his father behind him, no one can break the conspiracy."
Sean cursed a few more times, and then asked: "Can you propose this. Suggestion, it means that your eldest brother knows the specific situation of Emperor Qin - to be honest, I have never found out the specific situation of Emperor Qin, and my godfather doesn't know much about it. How does Bai Zhan know?"
Bai Ye shook his head: "I don't know. Even during the court meeting, my father did not show up. Most of the time, the palace minister Covins was the mouthpiece, and my father only said a few words occasionally. To be honest, I also It's been a long time since I saw my father. The last time was before I went to Paradise City."
Sean thought for a while and then said: "There may be something wrong with your father... By the way, that bullshit Kaiguo. What does the statue look like specifically?”
Baiye rummaged for a while and took out a drawing.
"It has been sent to the engineering department, this is it."
Sean took the drawing, and then his pupils shook violently.
Bai Ye did not notice Sean's abnormality and continued to introduce: "According to the drawings, the statue is three hundred meters high, and the tallest building in the entire imperial capital is only less than two hundred meters. In addition to the construction location, it is expected that after completion It just echoes the imperial palace on the top of the mountain.”
“At the same time, the statue also contains many other functions, such as connecting audio equipment throughout the imperial capital, lighting equipment that can illuminate the imperial capital at night, etc.”
While talking, Bai Ye discovered that Sean seemed to have not spoken for a long time.
She turned around to look in confusion and saw Sean clutching the drawing tightly, his brows already knitted together.
"Is there something wrong?" She noticed something was wrong.
Sean turned his head and his tone became more serious: "Is this statue built in the image of your father?"
"Of course, some details have been slightly changed, probably to make the overall look of the statue more beautiful. Very majestic."
"What about these?"
Looking at where Sean pointed.
The statue on the drawing is enlarged to the same proportion as a real person, and the place Sean pointed to is the decoration of the statue.
The chains wrapped around his arms and the empty pocket watch on his chest.
"This..." Bai Ye thought for a while and replied, "When the imperial capital was established and my father led the troops, it was basically the last large-scale battle in the imperial capital. After returning, my father's hands Just like this, the iron chain is wrapped around..."
Speaking of this, Bai Ye was also stunned: "The iron chain... this should be a trophy, but when you said this, I remembered the historical records of the imperial capital. There is no relevant record... As for this empty pocket watch, I don't know. It may be one of the trophies, but I have never seen my father wearing it. "
Empty?
Sean licked his dry lips.
It was obviously a drawing, but why was it empty when Bai Ye looked at it?
The iron chain and pocket watch are obviously the things in the hands of the fisherman Bernard, and they are also important items that can revive the Lurker Gao Zun and gain strength.
The most important thing is that only Sean can see the hands in the pocket watch - but the hands on the pocket watch in this drawing can only be seen by Sean.
This is almost a conceptual difference.
Sensing something was wrong with Sean, Bai Ye subconsciously asked: "Is there something wrong?" "Where is the shadow?" Sean asked.
Although Bai Ye was confused, he still called out the shadow. The poison that the other party had been poisoned has been removed and has now recovered.
After Shadow appeared, he described it as Sean asked. Sure enough, he could only see an empty pocket watch.
If you can’t see the real thing, why can’t you even see the picture on the drawing?
"Is there something wrong with the pocket watch? Is this some kind of very special item?" Bai Ye knew that Sean had many secrets, and immediately realized that there was something wrong with the chain and the pocket watch, especially the pocket watch.
Sean didn't explain immediately, just bared his teeth.
“I originally thought that your eldest brother was planning to use the current situation to line his own pockets, and finally pool resources to complete something... But now it seems that the water here is deeper than I imagined. "
"What do you mean?" Bai Ye also became serious.
Sean smiled: "Have you ever heard of the evil god, the Seducer Gao Zun?"
"Huh?"
...
After some explanation, Sean did not hide any information except that he was half evil god.
Bai Ye, who has been educated by the imperial elite, is a staunch atheist and scorns the so-called 'belief in gods' and the like. However, after Sean's detailed explanation, she suddenly realized that this world There may be many things outside that she still doesn't understand.
“The ritual of sacrificial summoning... This does not conform to the rules of the veto’s abilities. The space system can achieve this, but this is the ability of the veto. It does not require others to sacrifice and summon in order to travel through time. Space... For the weak, I heard that someone is trying to develop a space travel type device, but it is just the beginning of research... This is unreasonable."
Baiye was puzzled.
Sean shrugged his shoulders: "There are many unreasonable things. First of all, there are so many crazy beasts in the world, and humans have begun to evolve and absorb the blood of crazy beasts... Doesn't this sound more unreasonable?"< br>
Bai Ye choked, but she also knew very well that there was no need for Sean to lie to herself in this regard, which meant that he had really encountered something similar...
"Wait... ...Something's wrong." Bai Ye suddenly discovered something, "My father's previous image was related to the lurker Gao Zun, but this drawing was provided by my elder brother..."
"Various investigations Discovery, or the statue itself is a ritual," Sean explains.
Bai Ye shook his head: "That's not what I meant. You tricked me into asking them to go to the Gray Sea to investigate Gao Zun, right? I taught you Gao Zun, and they have contact with Big Brother... Then Brother provided me with this blueprint, how could I not know about it?”
"This statue is obviously related to Gao Zun. How could I allow my eldest brother to spend all his efforts to build the statue?"
Hearing what Bai Ye said, Sean realized that he knew too much information, but instead The information exploration of others is ignored.
Indeed, the Self Sect is hostile to Gao Zun, so it is unjustifiable for Bai Zhan to build this statue...
Unless the Self Sect does not know this specific image?
But Bai Zhan must have a deep meaning in building this statue. He is related to the Self Cult. This statue should also have the participation of the Self Cult... If you don’t know that this is Gao Zun, then build it What is it for?
This makes no sense...
Or is this just an image, and the image is just part of a certain ritual?
Sean found that his understanding of religion was still too little.
“I have a hunch that building this statue is not a good thing.” He muttered.
Bai Ye said angrily: "Who doesn't know! The key now is to figure out why the elder brother built this statue? At the most superficial level, he wanted to please his father and enrich his own pockets. And if he knew If the eldest brother has an affair with Shuren, it will be considered that the eldest brother is weakening the national power of the empire in disguise.”
Sean narrowed his eyes slightly: "You mean, only people like me who know the Lurking Seducer Gao Zun will realize that the underlying logic here actually doesn't make sense?"
Baiye Diandian Head: "If you don't tell me, I won't know, let alone other people. If I don't know this, wouldn't it be true that you are the only one who can see something is wrong here? ?”
“That’s it…” Sean narrowed his eyes.
He suddenly turned his head and looked at Bai Ye.
"Then can I guess this...what if Bai Zhan doesn't know it himself?"
Bai Ye's eyes suddenly widened.
......
"Father has indeed agreed. Now, we must build the statue as soon as possible." Bai Zhan paced around the room excitedly.
The man in black with the scar on his chin chuckled: "No one will know why you built this statue... Even His Majesty, even if His Majesty knows your connection with the tree people, he I won’t stop you now.”
An inexplicable look flashed in Bai Zhan’s eyes: “Father...he can’t wait any longer.”
"Yes, so even if Princess Baiye knows the truth and reports it, no one can stop you... Of course, the most important thing now is to build the statue. To this end, I have some suggestions."
Bai Zhan nodded: "Military advisor, please speak."
The man in black chuckled: "First of all, the military personnel cannot move. This is the bottom line of His Royal Highness. If they do, even if His Majesty Support, His Majesty will do everything possible to obstruct it. Secondly, a large number of civilians will be requisitioned, and basic repetitive work will require a large number of people. In addition, in order to ensure that the statue can be completed as soon as possible, I suggest that you enter the palace again, and your Majesty will definitely think more about it. I can find a way to support you."
Bai Zhan said thoughtfully, "That makes sense. I will meet with the emperor later."
"By the way, Your Highness, I will. There is a suggestion..." The man in black licked his lips, "We can think of another way to help the tree people and release the lowest level of the Black Pigeon Prison."
Bai Zhan frowned: "Are you sure? The tree people have been unwilling to tell me who is locked up there, and I can't find any information from other places. The tree people are so eager, and it must be beneficial to them to release the people locked inside. "Although we are cooperating with them, there is no need to increase their strength in this way, right?"
"Your Highness, now is the critical moment... Think about it, who is the most likely to hinder the plan?" ?”
“Of course it’s my uncle.”
“That’s right, so we need something to distract His Highness as much as possible... And His Highness is more powerful than I thought. It needs to be stronger, so we have to find a way to enhance the strength of the tree people."
"... That makes sense."
