Chapter 492 Blind Spot
"The dignified prince of the empire was beheaded in public like this... His Majesty the Sun King is very courageous."
Under the high platform.
Among the surging crowd, a beautiful young woman sighed softly.
"Although the empire is strong, it still needs the support of the Church of the Seven Gods, especially in the current turbulent era... If the Sun King did not have such courage, how could he end the original war and unify the continent? Even now, it seems that The situation has long been not as stable as it was at the beginning of the Solar Era, but for more than four thousand years, Trisul is still the recognized overlord, which shows a lot of things..."
Beside her, another mature woman in a silver robe spoke lightly. However, under this bright sky, his face is always obscured by a hazy mist of stars, making it difficult to see clearly.
"Emperor Andrei's personal power is extremely powerful, but the reason why he was able to suppress the Fifth Era was not entirely dependent on force. At least in my impression, he has almost never personally taken action since the establishment of the empire... After all, in this world, even a true god cannot rule through extreme violence.”
"I understand, Mother..."
The young woman nodded, thoughtfully.
"What Dazlet has done seems to have intensified the conflicts within the empire, and he has to become a victim to maintain order... But mother, doesn't His Majesty the Sun King have even a little bit of love for him? In the Sun Royal Family, there is only one Such a prince, now that he is executed, only Princess Anna remains.”
"I'm sorry Rosa, I don't know. Maybe the further you go on the path of God, the more human nature will transform towards divinity... Divinity is the cornerstone that supports supreme power, but the price is that humans need to be gradually abandoned. The emotions that come with it include, of course, love.”
Blaise shook his head slightly.
Rosa was slightly startled, then worriedly said:
"Mother, are you about to be promoted to Sequence Three? Will you be able to..."
Blaise smiled and raised his hand to smooth his daughter's hair.
"Don't worry Rosa, even if I am promoted, I can still maintain the status quo... Only when I reach the angel level will drastic changes occur, but that step is too difficult, far more difficult than the saint's ceremony, for me It’s still far away.”
Rosa nodded and returned her mother's smile.
Next to the mother and daughter, there stood a gentleman in a black hat. He was holding a silver cane and staring at the high platform. He did not participate in the conversation between the two from beginning to end.
He frowned slightly, looked across the high platform, and looked up at the sun.
As Prince Dazlet was beheaded in public, Chen Lun felt something was wrong in his heart. As for what was wrong, he couldn't tell.
The feeling was subtle, but he trusted his own judgment.
‘It’s like the dazzling light in front of our eyes, but it always leaves black spots in the blind spots, becoming neglected places... It’s not that the light is too strong, but that human vision is weak and has huge flaws. ’
Chen Lun thought for a moment and then secretly used divination.
With a flick of his right hand, the silver cane dinged and spun on the spot.
At the same time, recite silently in your heart:
‘Dazrat Trisul confirmed dead? ’
Snap.
The cane stopped and the crank pointed straight ahead, indicating a positive sign.
‘Really dead...’
Chen Lun raised his eyebrows. He did not doubt the results of the divination. After all, this was a divination ritual performed with the blessing of the "man of destiny". Its weight is probably far higher than that of high-ranking people of the same level, and its accuracy is very high. it goes without saying.
But he didn't expect that the prince was really dead.
Originally, he had speculated whether this might be a fake death. The Sun King pretended to compromise by making Dazlet confess his guilt, thereby breaking the persecution of the Church of the Seven Gods, and then used some means to privately resurrect him.
But that's obviously not the case now.
‘Perhaps as His Majesty Blaise said, all this is just because the Sun King is courageous enough. In order to maintain the stability of the empire, he will not hesitate to sacrifice his only prince. ’
Chen Lun took a deep breath.
But he was suddenly startled.
The characteristics of the "man of destiny" allowed him to vaguely see the ignored information in the "blind spot".
'The only prince? It shouldn’t be like this...’
Chen Lun turned his head, kept his tone calm, and asked the Silver Dragon Witch in a deep voice:
"Your Majesty Blaise, Your Majesty the Sun King has ruled the empire for more than four thousand years, but the royal family only has three heirs, and two of them are ordinary people. Don't you find it strange?"
"Strange?"
Blaise looked at Chen Lun, but shook his head slightly.
"This is not surprising. The Sun King ranks among the angels, and his lifespan is almost infinite... When the great power is condensed into one body and can exist for a long time, the crown prince has no meaning... The birth of 'Scorching Sun' is just an exception. Before the Solar Era, At first, he was born with the power of myth and was a saint. Obviously, his bloodline contained the great power and expectations of Emperor Andrei. Unfortunately, he was exiled to darkness by His Majesty in the end due to conflicting beliefs. "
The Silver Dragon Witch paused for a moment and looked in the direction of the high platform.
"As for Dazlet and Anna, they are just ordinary people, which means that the power of the Sun King is not contained in their blood... His Majesty may have just created two offspring casually for fun. After a hundred years, the prince and princess will die of old age. , a new crown prince will be born.”
Chen Lun frowned after hearing Blaise's words.
According to the rules of the mysterious realm, the higher the power, the stronger the divinity. It is understandable that the Sun King is indifferent and does not care about his children, but he still has some doubts.
After a few seconds of silence, Chen Lun continued to ask:
"Your Majesty Blaise, if this is really the case, what about the past? From the establishment of the Trisul Empire to the birth of Dazlet and Anna more than twenty years ago, except for the 'Scorching Sun', the Sun Royal Family has never had a Other crown princes? ”
"Of course, before... huh?"
Blaise nodded and said, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he suddenly stopped and made a confused sound, showing a little confusion.
"I can't even remember... As for whether there was a crown prince before the Sun Royal Family, my memory is a little fuzzy."
Chen Lun's expression suddenly became serious.
This is what he always felt was wrong!
In the four thousand years of the empire, there has only been a 23-year-old prince and a 20-year-old princess, and they are both ordinary people. This is a bit strange... but except for himself, no one else or even the people of the empire noticed even a little bit. Abnormally, even His Majesty Blaise, who is the Saint of the Stars, seems to be affected by something and cannot remember the past about this matter.
Chen Lun vaguely felt that there must be a huge secret behind this matter, otherwise there would be no need to hide it from so many people.
And if you want to do this, the person who takes action must be at least a god-level angel!
"Jack, I advise you not to be too curious about this matter, and don't explore it..."
Silver Dragon Witch Blaise said in a deep voice after some memories and thoughts. The star mist used to cover His face slowly drifted away, revealing a solemn and serious expression.
"Even I was unknowingly affected. There must be a terrible truth hidden behind this matter... Perhaps only higher-order beings know all this, but they all remain silent, most likely Is there any special reason..."
"I know, Your Majesty Blaise."
Chen Lun took a deep breath and nodded towards him.

The three of them quietly left the Fire Pattern Square, took a carriage, and headed towards the Generous Church District.
The royal family did not dare to disobey the Sun King's will. Noah was released from the dungeon yesterday. However, his physical condition was extremely bad at the time, like a candle in the wind. His appearance was also very tragic, and he was almost tortured into a human form.
Fortunately, all the negative states on his body were cleared. Chen Lun immediately used the [Jingzhe] bookmark to instill vitality into him... But he didn't know if it was the torture during this period that caused Noah's upper limit of health to temporarily drop. Chen Lun had no choice but to ask Maggie to take him back to the church area to recuperate and receive targeted rehabilitation treatment.
The carriage drove straight into the arch of the church area and followed the garden path to a stop in front of the residential apartment.
Afterwards, the three of them got off the carriage, and Chen Lun invited His Majesty Blaise and Rosa to come in as guests.
"Mr. Jack!"
Noah was wearing loose white home clothes and had been waiting in the living room early. When he saw the three people arriving, he quickly got up and stepped forward.
"Mother, and my sister."
With a smile on his face, he greeted the three of them.
"How is your health?"
Chen Lun asked with concern.
"Miss Maggie has treated me. Although the taste of the medicine is not very good, the effect is very good! I feel that I have almost recovered now! Thank you for saving me, Mr. Jack..."
Noah said with gratitude on his face.
Chen Lun shook his head and patted his shoulder.
"No need to thank me, Noah, it was His Majesty Blaise who personally went to ask His Majesty King Shuoli to come forward for your sake..."
Noah suddenly showed a guilty expression and looked at his mother and sister.
"I'm sorry, mother, sister, it was my recklessness that made you worry."
"As long as you're safe, Noah."
Blaise said softly, stroking his head gently.
Rosa's eyes were red as she thought of her brother who had just come out of the dungeon, feeling extremely heartbroken. She slapped Noah's arm hard and yelled something in a low voice, but Noah just lowered his head and didn't dare to refute.
When Chen Lun saw this scene, he turned around and left with a smile.
‘It can be considered a blessing in disguise... Noah actually completed the promotion ceremony in the dungeon and became [Sequence Five-Bone Man]. ’
He thought to himself and walked to the room on the other side of the living room, where the rest of the team leaders were waiting. Before I even entered, my powerful senses had already heard the heated discussion inside...
"The lady in silver robe outside is really a high-ranking person?!"
"Of course... Anton can smell a strong threat from him. If Anton can't defeat him, he will be killed!"
"He is indeed a powerful human being, meow. Even the most powerful warrior of the black cat clan will probably be defeated by him..."
"Noah's mother is actually a saint?!"
"But haven't you noticed? Mr. Jack has also changed a lot. I thought he was unfathomable at first, but when I saw him again yesterday, I couldn't feel his existence at all. When I looked carefully, I even trembled involuntarily. Get up... Tell me, Mr. Jack... is he also crowned a saint?"
Creak.
Chen Lun opened the door and the discussion inside came to an abrupt end.
"Mr. Jack."
Everyone turned to look, with respectful and inquiring expressions on their faces.
Chen Lun smiled, and first said to Floy, who was sitting quietly on the sofa:
"Floy, please excuse me, there will be two extra guests at today's dinner party."
"Well, leave it to me."
Floy smiled and nodded, slowly standing up.
Immediately, Chen Lun slowly looked at the cadres and said softly:
"You guessed it right, I have been promoted to a high position."
"..."
Everyone was startled at first.
The scene remained dead silent.
Immediately, everyone's faces bloomed with shock and joy.
"Mr. Jack?!"
"Our leader is actually a high-ranking saint!"
Antonio walked to Chen Lun's side in small steps, sniffed it like a dog, then his eyes widened and he hummed happily.
"Powerful breath! Anton is happy for you!"
Thank you all for your votes these two days, thank you very much!
The second chapter was written a little more than ten minutes later, and I was writing it again!
