“The Gus Family?”About 15 minutes later, on the cherry wood sofa in the manor’s living room, Swain leaned against the table and chair and narrowed his eyes. “Did that little widow Morando deduce all of this?”

“Watch your words, Old Man...”Rox rolled his eyes at him. “How Old Are You? You still sound like the ruffian you used to be.”

“TSK, I’ve always been like this. Didn’t you dislike me in the past? Now you look like you’ve been stepped on. What’s wrong? Are you interested in that widow?”

“Shut up! !”Rox’s face turned red. He looked at the stunned Galen and coughed lightly. “What do you think of her statement?”

“There’s a big loophole...”. Swain drank his tea and said slowly, “But it’s not impossible ... ... Do you still remember the final battle of the King ? Before the final battle between the king and the chief of the Hammer of destruction, the Gus family was attacked by assassins.”

The King was attacked? Which King? Galen was stunned as he thought about it.

Rox’s face darkened when he heard this. He naturally knew which King the other party was talking about. In this guy’s eyes, he would not treat the useless king in his seat as the King!

Rox said, “I’m telling the truth. Even though I suspected there was a mole, I never thought that it would be the Gus family. That family...”

Gus Family?

Galen was dumbfounded. He did not expect to hear one secret after another that made his jaw drop. He thought that he was accompanying Rox to relax.

The former Marshal of the Empire, the first generation war god, the Ghost Fox, was still alive. The previous emperor, who was known to have the most military merits other than the second generation martial emperor, had actually died in a murder? The most important thing was that the two big shots were still suspecting the Gus clan!

The Gus clan, the lineage of the previous prime ministers. Wasn’t this a little too crazy?

“I actually had my suspicions back then...”. Swain sighed. “Due to a genetic disease, the Gus clan’s descendants are all very weak. They can not practice martial arts and it is very difficult for them to become a mage. Therefore, in terms of intelligence and order control, this clan can be considered to be the best of all the clans in the empire “...”. To be able to assassinate the king within the Gus family and not find any clues after that, other than the cooperation of the Gus family, there is really no other reason... “...”

Rox lowered his head when he heard that. The other party was right. Due to the genetic disease, the Gus family could not train illegitimate children to be their private military force like other nobles. All the military force was hired by outsiders in order to ensure safety.., the Gus family was quite meticulous when it came to order and information.

To be able to plan such an assassination operation within the Gus family without leaving any clues behind, it was not like he had not suspected it at that time...

But...

“Since you suspected it, why didn’t you say anything at that time?”Rox asked with a frown.

“I can’t think of a motive...”. Swain sighed and poured a cup of black tea for him. “In the empire, no family is more favored than them. For a thousand years, a family that can’t produce knights and mages has been honored for so long. which force would give them so many benefits?”

Rox nodded. In this world, it was very difficult for a family of purely civil officials to last long. After all, this was an extraordinary world. In the countries in the Western archipelago, no matter how high one’s political talent was, it was still difficult for a family to stand out. If the family did not have a great mage in charge, it would be very difficult for them to stand out. The Gus family was a miracle. Even in the steel arms empire, there would never be a second example...

Under such circumstances, what kind of benefits would make them betray the Empire?

Swain pointed at the map and said, “That little widow’s speculation is a big picture. The contradiction is that the Gus family is not a superplayer, and they do not have the ability. A family without a strong person would not be able to control other ambitious partners. But if they are not the ones in charge, then what is the meaning of betrayal? “In the empire, their family’s status is already high enough. If they didn’t reach the top, what else could they pursue?”

Rox lowered his head silently. If it was before, he might have been convinced by Rox’s words, but now... ...

“What if... someone can solve the genetic disease of the Gus Family?”

“What?”Swain was shocked and almost subconsciously denied, “How is that possible?”

Every generation of the Gus family would invest a large amount of money to those alchemists in order to find a solution to their bloodline disease, even the Guardians of the Tower of mysteries had personally investigated their family’s disease, but they could not find a solution.

This was something that the world acknowledged could not be solved.

“It’s not impossible for an organization to make dead heroes come back to life and work for them...”Rox said faintly.

Swain was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and said, “I’ve heard that you’re going to ask people to open the coffin of the Tower of glory. You’re really daring...”

“You don’t believe my story either?”Rox looked at him and said.

“It seems that you’re serious...”Swain sighed and shook his head. “To be honest, if you didn’t say that, I might have directly driven them away with a stick!”

“But if I follow my guess, wouldn’t the logic be completely clear?”Rox said faintly.

Swain immediately fell silent.

Indeed, if there was any benefit that could make the Gus family betray them, it would be a very important motive to solve his family’s bloodline disease... ...

With the huge wealth of their family, if they could solve this disease, how many outstanding knights and Mages wouldn’t be able to be nurtured?

In the end, who would want to be ordinary if they could become an extraordinary family?

“You came to me because you want me to agree with your crazy idea?”Swain asked curiously.

“I came to you because I want to consult...”Rox pointed at the cities on the map and said, “If my crazy guess is true, how do you think we can get out of this predicament?”

“It’s very difficult...”Swein looked at the map and shook his head. “Once this encirclement is launched, with the military strength of the imperial capital, it will be very difficult to drag the border troops back to help. If you want to win, you can only transfer the border troops ahead of time...”

At this point, Swein paused for a moment, then looked at the other party and said, “You Fellow, so you came here today to drag me down with you?”

“I have no other choice...”Rox muttered with a bitter smile, “I can only rely on you, Old Man! In this empire, there’s no need for a Commander Seal to persuade the border army. Besides me, there’s only you...”

“The key is how long can you last?”

“Ten Days...”Rox said with a bitter smile, “If they start to make trouble, at most ten days!”

“ten days?”Swain rolled his eyes.”In ten days, the border troops won’t even make it halfway. . .

“There’s no way... . “Rox smiled bitterly and spread his hands: “Even the Red Dragon City is under the control of the other side, ten days I was optimistic about it... At this point he said gravely, “It’s all up to you, Old Chap, and if I don’t make it, you’ll be the only one who can save the Empire from the shadow stream ”
