Sharon said without raising her head: "That's not true."
Xio was very sensible and did not continue to ask, but he was still curious whether such answers were the sincerity of Miss Audrey and Miss Sharon.
Hastur glanced at the time. It was nine twelve. It was already late. It was time to go to bed early today. As for the winner's game in life, he didn't want to play it anymore.
Audrey, who was also not in the mood to continue playing, got up and left, returning to Alfred's villa with Xio and Forsi.
No one else was present. Hastur wanted to say something to Sharon, but found that Sharon had already hidden in the mirror again, leaving Azshara lying outside the mirror, pretending to be asleep.
Hastur, who had a headache from playing the game tonight, also chose to take a bath early and then go to bed to rest.
When Caius came to the room and was about to put away the map of the game Winner of Life, he found that Mrs. Lisa also appeared here.
"When did this game map have extraordinary abilities?"
"Just some time ago, after our testing, there was no harm. On the contrary, it can also make this game affect the fate of the game, making it more realistic."
"Did Lord God Envoy know about this before playing the game?"
"I know, it was the God Envoy who asked me to bring this game map here."
Facing Mrs. Lisa's question, Caius answered honestly.
"So that's it."
Mrs. Lisa seemed to understand something, with a much kinder smile on her face. She asked Caius to put away the game map, and she left the room with satisfaction.
Just now, when Lord God Envoy was playing a game, she had keenly sensed the existence of extraordinary fluctuations here.
This extraordinary fluctuation does not come from the game map itself, but from the people participating in the game.
Some people are using their extraordinary abilities to unknowingly change the points of the dice when throwing them, so that they can control their own lives and move towards the future of life they want accurately.
At first, she thought that the people who used extraordinary abilities to change the dice numbers were Miss Sharon and Miss Audrey, but now it seems that this is not necessarily the case.
The tampering person may be one person, or two people, or now it may be three people.
……
Outside Puning Port, investigators from the Three Gods Church waited day after day. It was almost the New Year before the latest instructions from Backlund were delivered here.
The higher-ups asked them to spend a good New Year here and treat this trip as a holiday.
"What's going on? We've obviously found this place, why don't we continue the investigation? Now that we've given up halfway, isn't our trip in vain?" This is an investigator from the Church of Storms.
"Maybe there is a secret behind it that we don't know about." This is a member of the Church of Steam and Machinery.
"Not bad. After paying the salary and year-end bonus, there is still a lot of money left.
Have a good new year." This is a member of the Church of the Goddess of Night.
"Did you know something in advance, so this investigation is so casual and indifferent?"
"It's enough to suffer a loss once for some things. If you have to suffer a second loss, it's just because your brain is broken."
"What should we do about the pressure from the Loen royal family?"
"Are they paying us? Or can they influence our promotion?"
……
Snapped!
Govington II slapped the investigation report from South Wales on the table with a sullen face.
In the investigation of Count Hastur Campbell, the investigators of the Three Gods Church have not found key clues and evidence, and now they have written a letter asking for a sum of money for the New Year activities.
Haha, such investigation results cannot convince him at all!
The deaths of the two Grand Dukes of Southwell, and even the three Grand Dukes of Southwell, are absolutely inseparable from the death of Lord Hastur Campbell!
After being gone for so long, the investigators of the Three Gods Church have not yet found out the truth. Is it because their abilities are limited, or is there someone behind them who deliberately gave instructions?
If it's the latter, then he needs to be careful.
Recently, the Loen royal family has taken advantage of many old nobles, which has caused the Church of Storms' displeasure several times. If they anger the other two gods, the Augustus family is likely to be replaced by other families.
No one is better than those superior gods when it comes to supporting substitutions.
In the end, Govington II suppressed his anger, and then approved a sum of money for the investigators of the Trinitarian Church who went to South Wales.
Originally, he wanted to completely resolve Hastur's matter before the New Year, but now it seems that it must be postponed until after the New Year.
But he was always afraid that something would change later. The sky fires last time had already made him wary.
The only thing that gave him comfort was that on the frontal battlefield between the Loen Kingdom and the Feysac Empire, the army of the Loen Kingdom was advancing with great success and had pushed into the belly of the Feysac Empire.
At this rate, this war will be over by June or July next year.
By then, he will become the king with the largest area in the history of Loen Kingdom.
Govington II, this great name will eventually be written in history!
Compared to this, other things are just small things.
Half an hour later, Govington II came out of the study and went to the hermitage of William I, the ancestor of the Augustus family.
The Augustus family needs a true god of their own. The original George III failed, so now the most likely only one is William I, the hand of the Sequence 1 order.
When Govington II left here, he went to handle the government affairs of the Loen Kingdom.
December 12, New Year’s Eve.
An urgent letter from South Wales arrived on the table in Govington's study.
After just opening it and briefly glancing at it, Govington II's expression changed, and then with a cold face, he handed the letter to other important noble ministers to read.
After the ministers finished delivering the letters, the atmosphere in the entire study was silent and solemn.
Govington II lightly rubbed his brows, feeling extremely bad because the letter only contained a simple sentence: The warship from the Southern Continent has arrived in the waters near South Wales.
At this time, most of the troops of the Loen Kingdom have been deployed on the battlefield of the Fusac Empire and have penetrated deep into the hinterland. It will be difficult to return home for support in a short time.
As for South Wales, the military power of the coastal defense line has always been firmly held by Hastur, and the relationship between the Loen royal family and Hastur is not friendly.
This is definitely very bad news.
Chapter 427 Audrey: Miss Sharon, when will you be happy?
Fall in love with Mr. Hastur?
"What do you think we should do about this matter now?"
Govington II threw the problem to his newly formed core group of ministers.
Several ministers looked at each other for a while, and someone bravely said: "At such a critical moment, everything can only be done with stability. Since the appointment of Earl Hastur Campbell was to garrison the coastal defense line from the beginning, then this matter He should be responsible."
"What if he chooses to defect to the Southern Continent and go against the kingdom because of what happened during this period?" A minister expressed his concerns about this proposal.
This is also a problem that Govington II is worried about. The royal family of Loen and Earl Hastur Campbell are just about to break up. Anything can happen.
"It might be a good thing if he completely sides with the Southern Continent, which means he will be completely abandoned by the gods."
Hearing this, Govington II's eyes lit up. This statement is indeed very reliable. The so-called war is just the product of the gods dividing the profits after deciding who wins and loses.
If you can securely receive support from the Three Gods Church, what does it matter to a Southern Continent that has just experienced war?
"Then let him take full responsibility for this matter." Govington II gave his final decision.
A minister said uneasily: "But if Earl Hastur Campbell successfully resists the invasion from the Southern Continent and his prestige increases, it will not be so easy to deal with him in the future."
Govington II waved his hand and sneered: "As long as he has something to do with the death of the third Archduke of South Wales, then there is always a reason to kill him!"
This is a righteous handle. As long as it is grasped correctly, Hastur can be regarded as a treasonous traitor no matter what prestige he has in South Wales!
……
Port Puning, South Wales.
The warships that sailed from the southern continent have appeared within the observable range of the coast of South Wales, causing people in the coastal areas to panic.
Hastur, who holds the power of the coastal defense line in South Wales, still has the leisure to tease Azshara who is lying on his lap, and orders Caius to decorate the villa here and the castle in the suburbs to welcome The arrival of a new year.
Sharon, who knew that the Southern Continent was preparing to launch a war, finally came out of the mirror. She stood some distance away from Hastur, staring at Hastur who had no nervous expression on his face.
"Did you expect this?"
"That's not entirely true." Hastur looked back at Sharon and said calmly: "I was the one who asked the Southern Continent to send dozens of warships to the coastal waters."
This is one of the means to counter the Loen Royal Family. As long as there is a possibility of war breaking out in the Southern Continent, regardless of whether the Loen Royal Family is willing or not, he is the best person to take charge of this defensive war.
Any actions against himself will be temporarily stopped, so that he can have a good year.
Next year is a good new start, and the Kingdom of Loen can also have another king.
It is said that the oldest son of Govington II is only twelve years old, so he is indeed a good choice.
Although he didn't really want to be Prime Minister Cao, sometimes
, Cao thief is always better than the traitor who is hated by everyone.
If the Three Gods Church chooses to side with the Loen royal family when he is fighting against the Loen royal family, then he will no longer have to worry about anything and directly join the Southern Continent, allowing the Southern Continent to declare full war on the Loen Kingdom.
The worst it can be like is a battle between gods. If your side counts the words carefully, it will be quite simple to find all three true gods.
The True Creator, the Original Witch, Gray Carrie, and if that didn't work, he would use the Palace of Stars to attract several old clones of the stars and outer gods, which would be enough to deal with the coming of true gods such as the Goddess of Night.
But this is the worst case scenario.
"You also want to start a war?" Sharon looked at Hastur deeply, as if she just got to know Hastur again today.
Hastur sighed, stood up, left Azshara alone, walked to Sharon, and said softly: "I do it more out of self-preservation and learn to protect myself. This is the instinct of every living thing. .”
"Is it just self-protection?"
"It can also protect other important people and things."
Hastur stared at Sharon's blue eyes, and the meaning was self-evident. Sharon just said lightly: "Miss Audrey?"
After saying that, without waiting for Hasta to say anything, she suddenly reacted and left with a slightly red cheek.
Such a sentence is simply jealous.
Shy Sharon is so cute!
Hastur looked at Sharon's leaving figure, feeling very comfortable.
