Chapter 260 Ascension Set
Chapter 260 Ascension Set
The news that the Clausen family was destroyed spread throughout the French Empire at an astonishing speed.
Overnight, all the direct descendants of the Croxon family died, and all the collateral descendants whose ranks were above 40 also died.
Many forces speculated which force was responsible for doing it so violently, so cruelly, and so quickly.
As the incident continued to ferment, although the murderer had not yet been identified, some small forces could no longer hold back and began to erode the inheritance left by the Clauson family.
All the elites died, and the remaining weak ones naturally could not stop the pack of hyenas.
With a group of people who benefited first, the subsequent people began to greedily demand more benefits, small forces, medium forces, and finally large forces, and the French Empire fell into a carnival.
As for how the Croxon family was destroyed, not many people care. They only care about the benefits that are about to be obtained.
However, not many people care about it, which means that there are still people who care, such as the top figures of the French Empire.
Because the force that destroyed the Croxton family can destroy the Croxton family overnight, which means that they can also destroy any one of them overnight.
You know, some of their forces are not as strong as the Croxon family, and they don’t even have demigods.
The thought of having such a force next to them made them unable to sleep or eat, fearing that someone would rush in and massacre them in the next second.
In a meeting room, four people were sitting. They were the current Emperor of France and the three dukes representing the East, West and North.
Croxon represented South.
"Have you found out how to destroy Clausen's power?" Emperor France asked.
The remaining three dukes shook their heads.
Emperor France saw this and said, "You haven't found out, but I have a suspect."
The other three turned their eyes to Emperor France.
Emperor France said: "I checked the recent movements of Claussen and found that they put more energy into the south."
"After a closer look, it seems that a force called Yinglong Army caused them to suffer losses. Moreover, the power behind this force is extremely mysterious. Even I can't find out any information about it."
"So I suspect that it was the power behind them that destroyed the Croxon family."
The three dukes remained silent, staring at Emperor France silently. They knew who to suspect, and then what?
"So, everyone, who is willing to give this force a try?" Emperor France clasped his fingers together, placed them on the table, and said softly.
Still no one spoke. The three dukes were not fools and naturally did not want to be cannon fodder in the landmines.
It would be fine if it didn't come out, but if it is true, my family will probably have to accompany Clauson to be the guest.
They haven't lived enough and don't want to swim in the River Styx.
The Duke of the East looked at Emperor France, his eyes were self-evident: You are the boss, so naturally you take the lead.
Duke of the West: +1
Duke of the North: +1
Emperor France looked at the three people with the same expression in their eyes and felt a little annoyed, but he quickly suppressed it. With external threats ahead, it was not advisable to engage in internal fighting.
"If you are unwilling, is there anyone you can recommend?" Emperor France said. He naturally did not want to be cannon fodder.
The Duke of the East said, "Your Majesty, someone is already doing it."
"Who?" Emperor France was puzzled. Someone was doing it, how could he not know?
The Duke of the East raised his chin slightly towards the vacant seat: "The future Duke of the South and his vassals will surely not be happy to have a new rising power around them."
Emperor France was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly: "That's right."
He was just thinking about whether to withdraw some of his investment.
The royal family must have a share of the huge benefits in the South Territory, but they certainly cannot do it themselves, so they have to go around it, such as supporting a new spokesperson. Now it seems that it is hard to say how long this new spokesperson can live.
But allowing the younger brother to die would obviously damage the prestige of the elder brother. Emperor France added: "It seems that there are many bandits in the country recently."
They didn't dare to find fault with the forces that destroyed Clausen, so they naturally had to find some excuses that would save their face.
The other three dukes also understood and nodded: "Yes, yes, it is time to carry out a purge to provide a stable environment for the citizens."
"The cult should also be investigated. Maybe the cult was involved in this matter."
"Yes, we need to investigate cults too!"
The four of them discussed it one after another and finally decided on the matter.
Then the evil forces within the French Empire suffered, after all, what goes up must go down.
First came the mountain bandits and pirates, then the gangs and officials, and finally every city and even every village had to nominate a typical criminal to be sentenced to death.
For a time, the public security rate in the French Empire reached its highest level in history.
As for the developments within the French Empire, Ash didn't pay much attention to it. If there were still idiots coming to cause trouble, he wouldn't mind playing Candy Crush again.
The Yinglong Army expands slowly because it wants safe and stable development, but that doesn't mean that Ash's sword isn't fast.
At this moment, he was focusing his attention on the second body, which was recording the data of the Shenglong Project.
In a forest, a little giant about three meters and three centimeters tall was moving quickly. The strange thing was that with his huge body, it should be difficult for him to conceal his movements.
But he was as nimble as a cat, and the ground was like sound-absorbing cotton, which could completely absorb the sound of his footsteps even if he moved very fast.
The small stones on the road that make noises seem to have life, quietly embedded in the soil without making any sound.
He found a target, a wild boar that was four or five meters long and one meter eighty tall at the shoulder.
He rushed to the wild boar, and before the wild boar could react, a pair of arms grabbed its neck and twisted it.
Gah! The wild boar's head turned 180 degrees in an instant, and then it died.
The little giant opened his mouth and a dark golden beam of fire spurted out of his mouth. The extremely high temperature instantly vaporized the wild boar.
But this extremely high temperature obviously did not affect the little giant. Even if sparks splashed on him, they did not leave a red mark.
The little giant continued to run wild and Ash continued to record data. This little giant was Toren who participated in the Ascension Project. His body had completely adapted to the Ascension suit (that is, the transplanted organ system).
After waking up, Ash let him adapt to his new body here and asked him to record data.
After a long while, Toren reappeared in front of the second body and knelt down and bowed his head and said, "Your Highness."
"Yeah." Ash nodded slightly, "Are you feeling better?"
"I feel much better now," Toren said, "but it just feels a little tight for some reason, Your Highness."
"It's normal." Ash said, "After all, although the Ascension Suit involves the soul, it doesn't have a very obvious strengthening effect. Your weak soul can't adapt to this powerful body."
"Practice some meditation in the future. It will help your soul adapt to this body."
"Yes, Your Highness," Toren said.
Yaxiu said: "Okay, go report to An Jiali, the Dragon Vein Project needs your assistance."
"I will go right away, Your Highness."
