Right? So that's why the enemy knew that "Queen Xilu" was a fake, because their leader was called Vona-Asfen, and Vona-Asfen grew up with Xilu-Asfen, and she could recognize at a glance that the one on the throne was not Xilu herself.
The more Li Ang thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case, until Xia Yibing poured a basin of cold water on him.
"That's not the case."
"You currently know too little about the 'Twin Trees Covenant'. In fact, for all the crown princes, such as Vona, Gaunt, Tenize, Berentan, and Naris, the Xilu they have known since childhood is Elwin."
"How is this going?"
"It's just Charuni's plan." Xia Yibing snorted. "Folk legend has it that Princess Xilu has always been weak and sickly, and rarely goes out. Do you think this impression matches that of Alvin?"
"Oh!" Li Ang finally realized, "It turns out that Xilu was His Majesty from the beginning!"
Then his scalp began to tingle - in this case, Princess Vona has always treated Alwin as Xilu, there is no way she knows the truth!
What is the "Twin Trees Covenant"? The confidentiality level of this thing is at least level 9. If I had not experienced the War of the Gods Elsa and became the king's confidant together with that group of people, I would definitely not have the opportunity to hear such secrets.
I shouldn't know that, and Princess Vona shouldn't know that either.
So how did she know?
"crown."
Xia Yibing uttered a word.
"The crown that Barish touched? Barish told her about it?"
"No, Barish most likely doesn't know about this."
"Could the crown have told Vona?"
As he spoke, Li Ang laughed.
"Yes, that's what the crown told her."
Li Ang was stunned: "But she...she shouldn't have a chance..."
"She has - the mysterious cold that broke out after Charuni took the throne also happened when Vona was young. Richard Barish was dead at the time, and we borrowed the records of the Tree People. Vona was the first to fall ill."
"…She came into contact with that Bai Mu?"
"Probably."
"But we don't have any evidence to prove that."
"No evidence required."
"Why?"
"Just lie with it."
"Who?"
"The crown."
Li Ang's clenched fists loosened and goose bumps began to appear on his back.
Xia Yibing continued while steering, "Aisun once gave it a chance and asked it if it had only come into contact with Richard Barish, and it answered yes."
"Do you understand what this means, Corneril?"
"When something is not a human, and you can't even confirm where its brain and heart are, you have to be extremely wary of it."
"It just so happens that it has learned to lie again. We all know that there are only zero times and countless times to lie."
"Then how much do you think it can trust what it said before?"
"Could it be that it wants something?"
Chapter 97 The Stolen Crown
With every word Xia Yibing spoke, Li Ang felt his back getting wet again.
What the fuck is this?
So everything is a conspiracy, and everyone is a pawn of the crown?
What a conspiracy... At first I thought it was just an ordinary jewelry theft case, and then I found out that gangs called the Xinhuo Gang and the Charcoal Gang were involved, and their goal might be to collect funds for some kind of treasonous act.
Then came Asfin's death, which led to the capture of Amora Doria and the discovery of the truth behind the "Light of Savior" organization. It was confirmed that the masterminds behind the scenes were Ebony Dodge and Rose Dodge, and by "interrogating" the golden crown, the detailed reasons for Richard's death were discovered, as well as the most important thing, the principle and process of this "artifact" awakening spiritual intelligence.
Then isn't it just a matter of closing the net next?
Ebony Dodge, Rose Dodge, Boca Chamber of Commerce, the Barish family, at most the Yellen family, the Film family and other people involved, big and small. Anyway, these people are like dust in the face of the Wang family's violence that was well prepared. They can just be arrested and interrogated slowly - isn't that what the review team is good at?
Without the support of the power behind the gray fog, and without the follow-up support of the evil organization, what can these people achieve with their combined strength?
Li Ang originally thought that the case would be completely solved when the arrests were made. No matter who the mysterious person or the mysterious mastermind was, he would not even frown no matter who surfaced!
Ok!
He admitted that when he heard the director say "it's Vona", "it's Vona-Asfen", "she is behind all this", he did frown and frowned more than once.
But that was all. Although he was surprised, he knew very well that even if Charuni Asfen was the mastermind behind the scenes, he could not change anything.
Vona was bound to be caught.
The entire capital has been put under martial law, the docks have been blocked, and the iron fences below the port have been raised with several rows of spikes. Forcing your way through will only result in the ship sinking, with the wreckage getting stuck in the gap, and the ships behind will have no chance of getting out.
He, Leon Cornerel, had this kind of confidence, because there was a girl named Aisuen Hitzfeld on their side, who had analyzed everything and arranged everything a few nights ago... Vona Asfen? What was she!
It goes without saying that Princess Vona must be unwilling to accept her future fate if she jumps out at this time.
She was dissatisfied with the fact that Alwyn finally got this position. Maybe it was because of her desire for power, or maybe it was because she had deep feelings for Gaunt, Berentin and others and just wanted to avenge them unilaterally... No matter what the reason was, she had made up her mind to go against this side, so she actually defected to the Eclipse Church a long time ago. Insel even used her relationship with Naris to successfully complete the assassination of the latter!
Damn, he gets angry just thinking about this!
Prince Naris...At the beginning, everyone thought that Prince Naris was the most suitable person to inherit the throne!
Of course, now it seems that Alwin is not bad, maybe even better, but as so many people have high hopes for him, there is no doubt that Naris is excellent.
He was brave and courageous, as well as cautious and careful. It was much more difficult to assassinate him than any other prince or minister. In fact, he felt something was wrong at the time - how could Naris be assassinated successfully without any noise?
Is he stupid?
Where were the guards he arranged? Where were the guards he hid? When he was young, he was injured by an assassin and he detonated the explosives in his bedroom! As a result, he and the assassin were blown out of the building with broken glass, and both fell from the third floor and broke their legs... How difficult would it be for such a guy to assassinate him quietly?
There was only one possibility, which was that he had completely let down his guard against the visitor.
Leon could fully imagine the scene at that time... Vona first used various methods, such as chance encounters and hints, to induce Naris to lose his composure.
Naris is perfect in every aspect, but because he is too perfect - he cares too much about the feelings of his younger siblings and wants to be a good big brother too much, so he is never willing to compete with anyone for the throne.
So this could only be the reason... He would definitely be mentally unbalanced. Either he would take Vona home to meet her privately, or he would simply leave his guards outside and chase after her.
Either way, his fate is already written.
Vona successfully killed her brother, perhaps she saw this as revenge... She may have already controlled the Boca Chamber of Commerce, and she returned to Wayne on the Boca Chamber of Commerce's ship and planned this reform turmoil.
But she was going to be caught eventually.
No matter how powerful Vona is, she is just a "person". Wayne has Count Jiyang, and Aisuen Hitzfeld has completely seen through her plan. If the truth ends here, then he will be surprised at most, "Oh, it turns out to be Vona" - and then he will do whatever he wants, and at most he will capture one more prince.
But that's not the case.
Li Ang understood... He deeply understood the meaning of Xia Yibing's last words. It not only explained "why Vona knew the secret of the 'Twin Trees Covenant'", but also explained that Vona Asfen was still not the final link in this case.
The final link is the crown.
Damn...are all people its pawns?
Then everything it said was unbelievable? But how could it be in Amora's possession? Such an important thing... Obviously such an important thing... If it was the mastermind and even took advantage of Vona's desire, shouldn't it be hidden in Vona's hands and not show up from beginning to end?
Leon immediately realized that the "appearance" of the crown was very suspicious. This was probably intentional, that is, it deliberately let Amora get it, and then through the case of Amora killing Alfred, the Security Bureau's attention was pulled back, and finally Amora was hinted to let him return to the crime scene and be caught.
Thus, its purpose was achieved - it fell into the hands of Count Xieyang. Of course, now it seems that the broken crown is very likely a fake, and the real one has indeed been in the hands of the "mastermind".
"Its goal is... is..."
"Yes, it's Aisuen."
Xia Yibing nodded and at the same time tightly gripped the leather ring of the steering wheel.
That's why she was worried when Hitzfeld left.
Because if we were just dealing with Vona, this matter could still be considered a minor matter.
Rebellion?
Suppression is.
Even though all conditions seem to have been met, even now, the "Light of Salvation" has realized that a disaster is imminent and has begun to mobilize the prepared forces to incite refugees to take to the streets, but what are these people in the face of guns and armor?
They are nothing.
Sara is a monarchy, a... in Aisuen's words, a feudal monarchy, so this kind of suppression is reasonable and necessary!
But if the opponent is that crown... the crown that claims to be able to connect to the root and read all the mysteries of the world, everything will be different.
Knowing everything, what a great title!
No knowledge of what happened in the "past" can be hidden from it.
Even if there is only a gentle breeze blowing through the sky, which mortals cannot see and gods cannot touch, the world knows it - the world retains the memory and traces of this breeze.
Then it can almost deduce the future based on countless amounts of information. Imagine that you are playing chess with such an opponent. How can you not feel scared?
Especially when you clearly realize that it is coveting the person you cherish most!
It is very likely that it wants to break free from its constraints and transform into a real life!
Everything is a cover, it's all just taking advantage of...
It wants to trick this side into thinking that this is the truth, and trick Asuen into disguising himself as "Bena-Larens," and use the opportunity of this art exhibition—which everyone thinks is an opportunity to capture Vona—to complete its plan to devour Asuen-Hitzfeld, the only person in the world who can block its detection.
It wants to break free from the cage of its mother tree and become a truly free life that can walk in the world.
"Life will find its own way, so I can't say I'm surprised by this answer."
I couldn't help but think of the girl's words before she left.
"But...it thought it could fool me just by doing this. I can only say that it took it for granted."
"Maybe it is omniscient and knows everything, but I discovered as early as when we first met that it actually has weaknesses."
"That is, it can't see through me."
"It's as if it is triggering information turbulence and information storms at any time, making the God's Eye ineffective against it. I - because of the many times the God's Eye has gone back in time, I am also entangled in the same information storm."
"Adding to this the possible interference effect of the Divine Eye, I had thought of this long before I saw it: this shielding effect should be two-way, I can't see through it, and it can't see through me either."
"Of course, this was just speculation at first. But soon I got the evidence."
"That's when I tried to contact it last night and was dragged into a flashback. It reproduced Ms. Yusilian's memories, not mine."
"..."
Maybe that's why, even though I'm so worried, I'm still willing to let her go.
Ignoring Li Ang's shocked look, Xia Yibing was also thinking in her heart.
Faced with a divine weapon that knows everything, he was still able to see through it and fight against it.
And the courage to rush forward and act as bait even though he knew the other party's target was him.
Count Hitzfeld...
Sarah treated you well, and you once again gave back far more than that trust...
"So what now?"
Li Ang asked.
"What should I do?"
Xia Yibing turned the steering wheel sharply and the car turned on the spot in the street.
Leon was thrown against the car door by a powerful force, and then he quickly understood why the other party did this - a group of refugees marching with flags suddenly appeared on the road ahead, and all of them were holding guns and weapons, so it would not be wise to collide with them.
"I'll get off at the back." Xia Yibing said.
"There should be a team nearby. Use the car radio to contact them."
"how about you?"
"I'm going to the northern suburbs."
