old dream

Chapter 269
"Don't talk about it." She didn't seem to want to get too entangled in this topic.Instead of using jerky Ankh, he said in fluent Nareth:
"Although you only regained consciousness halfway, you have indeed pledged your allegiance to the dark river. Is there any problem with my understanding?"

"That's right." Colin replied calmly. He was familiar with Naareth since he was a child.

When the matter developed to this point, he could only choose to cooperate with Anhe, because...the identity of "Ke Lin" could no longer be used.

At present, the news of Herwig's death has not leaked a word, and it may only be circulated in the inner circle of the Grand Duke, but the calmer it seems, the more it shows that a terrible storm is brewing.

Herwig's death while spying on the "Lieutenant" is an irrefutable fact.

It happened that after the night of the winter solstice, "Ke Lin" mysteriously disappeared.So presumably by now, the Grand Duke and others should have regarded the "Lieutenant" as the key clue to track down Helvig's death.

Maybe he can choose to betray Nancy, defect to the Grand Duke, and identify the murderer.But this also means that it is completely an enemy of the dark river, and revenge will be inevitable.So what's next, is the Grand Duke able to save him?Even, will the Grand Duke choose to keep him?

The cracking ceremony on the night of the winter solstice cannot be hidden. Even if the traces of witchcraft are encrypted, the flow of funds and redstones has left fingerprints.There are obviously too many secrets involved in him, if he can't explain clearly, the Grand Duke's attitude will always be a question mark.

And if his identity as a Yemin hybrid is revealed, the level of involvement in the matter will be further escalated. "The mixed blood of night people and human beings appears", this kind of news will soon spread throughout the world.At that time, the situation will be completely out of your control.

So in fact, the moment he discovered that he had the characteristics of the night people, Anhe had already become his natural ally.

Also as aliens, they have nothing to rely on.

Therefore, Nancy safely placed a hidden crown without adding more surveillance.

"Then we can get down to business," Nancy went on.This is the shelter arranged by the members of the dark river, and it is certain that there will be no eavesdropping devices.

"There are still a few members of the Dark River lurking in Danaro. They will provide cooperation, but the only ones who will directly participate in this task are you and me."

"The specific strategies and operations cannot be disclosed. This is also for your protection. After all, you are in the investigation department. Once exposed, they have countless ways to obtain the information in your mind."

"The main executor of the plan is me. Most of the time, you just need to pay attention to saving yourself and providing information."

"Although I can't disclose the specific strategy, I can tell you the ultimate goal." Nancy's expression became solemn, and she took a soft breath:

"It is to seize the Duchy of Edmond."

Two men, take a country.

Colin was startled, wait a minute, what does "capture" mean?To gain dominion?Or fight for your own camp?But in any case, this is not something that two people can accomplish.

"Uh, isn't this another project that will take ten years to complete?" He came back to his senses and said.

"No, only four months at most." Nancy seemed regretful:
"Even if I want to prepare for a while, the Grand Duke will not give me such a long time." She said:
"After all, the opportunity is fleeting."

Colin has not yet recovered from the chaos. For him who is used to thinking about problems with common sense in his previous life, a person suddenly tells you that he and her will take four months to seize a country, which sounds a bit fantasy.

"Whose plan is this? Whose orders are we following?" Colin asked.

Could this be Anhe's way of doing things?
"That's my plan," said Nancy:

"No one gave us orders. In fact, there were very few forced orders. Everyone was a lone wolf, wandering around looking for opportunities and collaborating when necessary."

"It's a dark river system everywhere. It doesn't see the sun, it doesn't communicate with each other. But we know that we will eventually flow to the same end, the same ocean. This is how we have operated for the past millennium."

Can such an organization last for thousands of years?Can the problems of loyalty and harmony be solved simply by racial identity and common purpose?

Colin couldn't help but wonder, but he knew that his understanding of the entire organization was still limited, so he didn't comment.

"Currently, Archduke Edmund is indeed investigating the cause of the death of Silent City." Nancy said:
"You are still safe, but you may not be able to use normal methods for a period of time. When I say normal methods, I mean most witchcraft and physical methods, which may be detected by the principality authorities." Nancy Then he went on:

"So we're going to use the special connection between Yemin. You should have already imagined the specific method."

Colin nodded.

How to contact the two night people?Of course into those frequencies that are too dangerous for the average human being.

In those abnormal frequencies, the coordinates of ordinary people may be permanently shifted and polluted, but for night people who do not have fixed coordinates, they can return to normal as long as they leave.

"Every moment has the frequency of countless dreams, floating, exciting, and resonating in the background sound."

Nancy closed her eyes and said, as if feeling the background sound of Danalo's frequency:
"Some of them are very dangerous, but they are harmless to the night people. So we can enter the same dream to communicate. The specific frequency, I will tell you later."

In this way, there will be a basic explanation of how to proceed with the subsequent cooperation.

After confirming one by one again, Nancy turned around and took her share of the coordinate stabilization device from the dining table.When she put the amber-shaped device into her jacket, Colin suddenly asked:

"Now that we've finished talking about the business, let's talk about something irrelevant."

"You said."

"In that warehouse on the night of the winter solstice, after I passed out. What happened?"

He vaguely felt that something was wrong that night, and there were still some vague shadows in some places.It was an uncomfortable feeling, so he wanted to figure it out as best he could.

Nancy put away the amber and turned her head thoughtfully:
"That's right, it's impossible for you to know what happened." She raised her hand and straightened her hair and said:
"After all, it's impossible for her to tell you this kind of thing... Ji Lian, originally planned to use that ceremony to cure her illness."

If Ji Lian wants to do it, she must be able to do it.Colin had no reason to think so.What's more, I don't know anything about that ceremony, and I can't detect her hands and feet.

Why, in the end, his own memory seal was unlocked?
The answer is self-evident, but before this moment, I didn't realize it.

Looking at Colin's expression, Nancy seemed to find it very funny and relieved her hatred.As a bystander for ten years, she was finally able to comment on Colin face to face:
"Your dullness." She came closer and whispered:

"Like a man-eating monster."
