My Weakest Little Brother Has Become A Demon King After Being Sealed For 1000 Years

Chapter 221 Underground Roots

At the moment when he heard his surname, William Little surprised a bit.

But then, he immediately hooked the head in his mind.

It should be just a coincidence…

After all, Kane is not a rare surname, and there is no tradition of changing surnames to avoid suspicion in this world. More importantly, there was no marriage game content in “The Last Watcher” at the beginning, and it is impossible for me to have descendants in this world.

Of course, there are guys who claim to be descendants of William and put gold on their faces. But if that is the case, it has nothing to do with him.

Thinking of this, William asked:

“Anything else you know about her adoptive parents?”

Will be in Raven Wood lives and settles down, which means that he is willing to accept the unique cultural customs of the forest elves. At least in William’s era, only the unfortunate who was chased by the enemy and forced to be helpless, or a very few crazy people with special hobbies would be willing to do this.

According to William’s knowledge, after Ravenwood was annexed by the Riel Empire, it seems to have become a place of exile within the empire to degrade the losers of the power struggle. Even the current queen of the empire, Irene Riel, was sent here to recuperate since she was a child on the grounds that she was frail and sickly. The essence of convalescence was that the Old Sovereign Emperor hoped that his youngest daughter would be able to stay away from the center of the empire. Fall victim to a power struggle.

“We have investigated, her adoptive parents are all members of the inner ring of the platinum circle, and it seems that she was demoted and sent here because she offended a member of the Elder’s Council in the platinum city. Responsible for the security of the Imperial ambassador in Emerald Province.”

Ebony’s answer was much the same as William’s guess.

However, the platinum ring?

After hearing the name of this organization with a too high sense of existence, William still kept his mind a little bit.

After all, the Platinum Circle is a Guard organization that only obeys the orders of the emperor, handles extraordinary events within the empire, and protects the safety of members of the royal family. It is said that it was founded by the first emperor Terra Riel, and has the privilege of being free from the supervision of the laws of the stars.

Then, as a member of the inner ring of the Platinum Circle, it is really unlikely that he would be assigned to Ravenwood for offending a certain elder.

Combined with the fact that their adopted daughter eventually became the Duke of Holy Tree who ruled Emerald Province, and after he came to power, he continued to implement a policy of pro-imperialism, and it was difficult for William not to think in the direction of conspiracy theories.

But in this way, the other party has the surname of “Kane”, it is hard to say whether it has any deep meaning.

Thinking of this, William suddenly fell into thinking again.

“So, you think so too, right? This matter from the very beginning was the arrangement of the imperial family to control the entire Emerald Province. The woman was essentially just a puppet supported by the empire. , we just need to reveal each other’s true face…”

Probably seeing William’s thoughtful expression, Ebony said excitedly.

For this naive view, William immediately poured a pot of cold water:

“Even if this is the case? According to what you said before, Flaro relies on truth and truth. It is not about political power, and it is not a throne that weaves lies to the people and sits on the throne. In this case, as long as there is no strength that can defeat the opponent, no matter what the truth is, it cannot shake the foundation of the opponent’s governance.”

Now that this is the case, will the other party still care about their reputation?

William’s words made Ebony’s emotions immediately disappear.

But soon he picked himself up again.

“But as long as you are willing to help us, then we have enough battle strength to defeat her, right?”

As the “big mother” in the apocalypse, she foretells the liberation of Sen. The Chosen One of the elves, Ebony once bought information on this mysterious man from the Thief Guild and Broken Sword brother at a high price.

Although the true identity of the other party is still unclear, according to his trajectory of action and the habits he shows, it is almost certain that the other party has a great relationship with the ancient organization called “The Last Watcher”. It may even be the direct descendants, successors and even survivors of the dead “judgment seat”.

And this point, Ebony’s previous trial by using the “Frost Witch” phylactery has basically been determined.

The members of the Tribunal…

Ebony can hardly describe how excited he was after he made sure of this.

Because of the Great Book Burning Movement that year, the historical records of the overwhelming majority about the Tribunal have been lost, and now only some fragments can be found. But even in those fragmented records, Ebony could feel how terrifying the Tribunal was and how much influence they had on the current situation.

The “Shadow Queen” Remedios of Avazhou, the “Frost Witch” Neh who once froze the entire Fairy Lake in a rage, the founder of the “Blind Sisterhood” The Stargazer” Sybylla, and even “William Kane”, the incarnation of the Eighth Holy Spirit of the Imperial Faith, were once a member of the Tribunal.

It’s no wonder that this man has been able to do so many incredible things before–suspected to quell the tide of undead in the Thorn City cemetery, toppling the poisonous snake tower of Nakuland, and manipulating behind the scenes. Blackwater Province expelled the imperial power, helped the Lord of Avazhou kill the Demon General massacre in Moonfair City, and even the sea of nothingness that is rumored to appear in the Mourning Mountain Range is his masterpiece.

In addition, in the revelation of the “big mother”, he resisted the great cause of the demon army’s offensive in Moon Realm… I don’t know which Inheritor of the other member of the tribunal, or simply hide himself. A member of the Tribunal who lives to this day as a longevity species.

I am afraid that only this kind of character who seems to be a mythical hero can help them pull that woman who is too strong for an unfathomable mystery from the throne.

“As long as you are willing to help us, I believe this will not be a problem.”

Ebony, who felt his emotions surging, repeated.

William, who was walking behind, was not humble at all hearing this.

“I said earlier, as long as you can guarantee that a few things are true, I can put you on the throne before next week.”

No matter who has the same last name as himself, How powerful can the forest elf named Flaro, since she is a magic caster, there must be no possibility for the convenience to defeat herself.

William didn’t say he’d be on the throne tonight, he just didn’t want to scare him.

Hearing William’s overconfident words, Ebony said somewhat guilty:

“It’s not so…even if you can beat that woman, we have to spend Get the support of the major tribes and the forest druids some time ago.”

After all, defeating Flaro and overthrowing the current Emerald Province government are two completely different things.

That makes some sense…

William thought to himself after hearing Ebony’s words.

After all, there are many forces scattered in Ravenwood. If you really want to suppress them all at once, you have to find a way to get all the Leaders who support the Duke of Holy Tree to gather together to solve it at one time. .

In this way, you can only use one shot, and you can save a lot of effort.

Thinking of this, William nodded and said:

“You arrange these things when the time comes. By the way, where are we going? How do I feel that we have been Going around in circles?”

Ebony hearing this immediately replied:

“Please be a little more patient, do you think that we will simply put those precious things in our own cabinets Is it safe to keep it there? Now the place we are going is a very hidden location hidden under the huge and complex root system of the World Tree, and a large number of defensive Formations are arranged, which must follow certain rules to trigger the opening of the entrance…”

At this moment, the two of them are moving deeper into the underground caves extended by the roots of the World Tree. It is rumored that the roots of the World Tree have spread to almost every corner of the entire Ravenwood Forest. Of course, this is just too exaggerated. statement. In fact, according to the calculations of the forest druids, the underground range of the entire root network, even including those subtrees, should be less than one-fifth of the area of Ravenwood Forest.

Of course, this is amazing enough for mortals. In the underground of Ravenwood Forest, relying on the root network of World Tree, it is completely possible to build an underground super city. However, because of the covenant between the forest elves and the World Tree, this kind of thing that will destroy the underground roots of the World Tree is naturally not allowed.

“But after all, this is an extraordinary period. The ‘Big Mother’ allows us to use the roots here to hide our stronghold against Flaro’s tyranny.”

Ebony said.

“You always said ‘we’ before, but now in Emerald Province, in addition to the Holy Tree, who is willing to resist the tyranny of Flaro?”

asked William who was following behind.

After all, according to the other party’s previous statement, in addition to the support of the empire, the current Duke of Holy Tree, the forest druids, and the clans that worship the wild beast spirit, are all because of the other party’s martial power and acknowledge allegiance.

In this regard, Ebony is a little proud to replied:

“Fulalo’s ruling style is extremely tyrannical, and anyone who dares to oppose her decision will be executed by her. But good Whether it is the execution or the disposal of the corpse, according to tradition, the Holy Tree Great Mother Temple is responsible.”

Looking at the smile on the other side’s face, William roughly guessed the other side’s actions.

“So you take this opportunity to…”

Ebony chuckled and said:

“Yes, I will exchange the sap of the dead root for execution. The alchemy medicine with a paralyzing effect, and the ‘Saint Eater’ used to dispose of the corpse obeyed my orders. Through deception and bag-dropping operations, I saved a lot of people who were willing to directly resist the Duke. Ah, here we are …”

They turned a corner again, and the two came to a gate composed of intertwined roots, on which a defensive Formation was engraved with a life rune.

Ebony raised his hand, intending to cancel the Formation, but William stopped it.

“That’s it?”

William asked, emerald rays of light in his eyes.

“That’s right, it’s here. A community of rebels.”

Ebony, who was stopped by William, asked strangely.

“How many people are there resisters here?”

William ignored the strange look in the other’s eyes and asked directly.

“There are a total of forty-three people, you don’t think there are few people, but each of them is brave and good at fighting…”

The color in William’s eyes instantly turned to pitch black.

“Sure enough…”

Then he muttered.

“Sure enough?”

Ebony asked nervously.

“I heard someone walking inside, so I subconsciously looked at it with [Life Detection], but I didn’t see a silhouette.”

William finished speaking Overlooked towards Ebony. Then he continued:

“Then I just tried [Necro Detection]… Guess how many silhouettes of undead I have seen in this settlement of yours?”

Ebony hearing this face upheaval.

He opened his mouth, trying to say a number with difficulty, but couldn’t pronounce a syllable for a long time.

William didn’t wait for him too long, cruelly opened the mouth and said:

“Forty-three.”
