I'm not just human!

Chapter 168 The Signer of the Silver Throne, a Core Member of the Augustus Family, and Six Hundred Years of History.

The lamps on the golden candlesticks, like glowing spheres, illuminated the entire banquet hall.

The banquet hall was completely silent. Everyone was extremely focused, their attention entirely on Marshal Gaius, not wanting to miss a single word.

Marshal Gaius took a deep breath and suddenly lowered his voice, despite being one of the two strongest beings in the Kingdom of Augu:

At this moment, however, he was as cautious as a mortal being haunted by something strange.

"My definite information is that there is only one reason why this Mysterious Emperor emerged from the Earthly Kingdom of the [Nature Monarch]..."

He lowered his body, his voice so soft it was almost imperceptible, yet every word reached the ears of everyone present, including Xia Fa.

"? He has received revelation from the righteous god, the [Nature Monarch], and is searching for something—something of unparalleled importance to this mysterious emperor!"

Upon hearing this, everyone in the Augustus family—from the angels and demigods to the younger generation—was stunned, their eyes filled with disbelief, followed by extreme confusion.

On the planet Caligia, something appeared that even a being like a Mysterious Emperor desperately wanted to obtain. This information was of utmost importance.

But the key question is, what exactly is that mysterious emperor looking for?

Seeing everyone looking over in confusion, Marshal Gaius leaned back in his golden chair and spread his hands.

"Don't look at me. I don't know what you're looking for, or rather, I'm not qualified to know."

This marshal, who was always as serious as a soldier, revealed his approachable side at this moment.

Of course, while the robed man was approachable, the other large spiders dared not show any displeasure, not even Lian, who dared to pursue him.

No one noticed Xia Fa. Xia Fa's expression seemed similar to that of the people around him, but at this moment, his heart was filled with shock as if the earth were shaking.

Marshal Gaius didn't know, nor did the Augustus family, but Shafa knew exactly what that mysterious emperor was looking for!

"A certificate of eternity! An absolute certificate of eternity!"

Xia Fa seemed to hear a voice roaring and howling in his heart, even with an extreme urgency.

He didn't know whether Marshal Gaius had joined the "Fate Carnival," but it was highly likely that he had.

So either Marshal Gaius deliberately didn't tell his family about it, to prevent them from learning about the concept of "the certificate of eternity," or even just hearing the term, which could lead to unpredictable dangers and horrors.

Or perhaps Marshal Gaius truly didn't know.

Xia Fa felt that the former was more likely.

However, Marshal Gaius obviously did not expect that he, who appeared to be a mere insect-level superhuman, would also know about the existence of the "Eternal Certificate"!

Xia Fa's mind raced, and clues emerged from his thoughts like fish leaping out of the water.

"Two supreme-level secret contracts, plus an eternal token, will allow the ruler to completely transcend and become a god—"

"The ruler who signed two overlord-level secret contracts is called the Emperor of Secrets." These clues were only briefly considered in Xia Fa's mind before he had a general idea of ​​what was going on.

Jin, this spring, Zhi Rui, the most dispatched to prepare for the bombing, all signed the Tianbi Zhang need the main level Miller's left empty, fortunately, at this moment everyone's attention was completely on Marshal Gaius, and many people were shocked by the information that Marshal Gaius threw out, so no one noticed his abnormality.

"On the planet Caligi, there are actually certificates of eternity—"

Xia Fa murmured to himself, his gaze turning deep again.

He had already signed two hegemon-level secret contracts, and would even be able to sign a third one soon. He clenched his fist under the table slightly, gritted his teeth, and a hard line appeared on the side of his face.

I must obtain this eternal certificate if I have the chance!

Although I will be facing a mysterious emperor, it doesn't necessarily mean I have to compete.

With the "Gate of the Stars," a supreme-level secret agreement with extremely strong escape and survival capabilities, it seems that stealing a chicken might not be out of the question once I sign the "Mysterious Singularity."

Moreover, the proof of eternity may not appear now; it will likely take some time before it fully manifests.

The reason why that mysterious emperor came out of the earthly divine kingdom was probably to make preparations in advance.

In this case, it means you have plenty of time!

Not only is it a mysterious singularity, but it may even be possible to take advantage of this time to sign the fourth overlord-level secret contract!

By then, even facing a mysterious emperor, it's not necessarily impossible to fight him.

Even the Emperor of Secrets only signed two overlord-level secret contracts, while I will have four, plus the added boost of the burning sensation in my heart meridian!

January 1st report.

As for what his fourth overlord-level secret contract is...

To be honest, if she could choose, Xia Fa would prefer "Fairy Tale World" and "Conditions Forever," as these two top-tier contracts both seem incredibly powerful.

"The reason I'm telling you this is to specifically remind you of something."

Marshal Gaius suddenly spoke, pulling Shafa back to reality.

Everyone pricked up their ears. Clearly, the patriarch was not the kind of person who liked to talk nonsense. His military-like demeanor made him not want to hear even a single word of nonsense.

So, all that talk before was for the real, crucial thing to come!

"What that mysterious emperor seeks will appear—on the Ocean of Baron!"

"In other words, the only being on our planet Caligi who has signed two hegemonic-level secret agreements will be active in the Baron Ocean for a long time to come. The maritime landscape is about to be reshuffled!"

"It's uncertain how many of the five pirate emperors will survive. It's possible that they might put aside their prejudices and accumulated grudges and choose to unite against that mysterious emperor, but the chances of winning are slim."

At this point, Marshal Gaius showed a hint of pleasure.

Clearly, as the ruler of the three armies of the Augu Kingdom, he had very strong opinions about some of the five pirate emperors, but he couldn't get rid of them.

Now, the only Mysterious Emperor of Caligia is about to forcefully intervene in the power dynamics of the Baron Ocean, and he naturally hopes that some of the pirate emperors will fall.

The five pirate emperors, who were either infamous, deeply rooted, or incredibly powerful, were all deeply troubled. Even when they joined forces, they might not be able to defeat the secret emperor who had signed two overlord-level secret contracts.

They're both clearly rulers!

The difference is just too big!

Moreover, everyone had vaguely heard that among those five pirate emperors, there was also an extraordinary monarch who had signed a hegemon-level secret contract!

The difference between one Overlord-level Secret Contract and two Overlord-level Secret Contracts is so huge? It's like an insurmountable chasm!

In a short time, many members of the Augustus family realized that their assessment of just how powerful the extraordinary individual who had signed two overlord-level secret contracts truly was seemed to be far too low.

It's important to understand that the reason why the Kingdom of Augu, the Empire of Wave Moon, and the Cloth Bag Dynasty—three kingdoms—allowed five pirate emperors, especially the three most cruel and bloodthirsty among them, to ravage the Baron Ocean with impunity was because...

That's because these pirate emperors sometimes didn't fight alone; they would choose to join forces!

Now, a problem that at least six rulers from three kingdoms couldn't solve for hundreds or thousands of years can be resolved with just one Mysterious Emperor, one Mysterious Emperor who has signed two overlord-level secret contracts. "So, whether it's yourselves or your subordinates, restrain yourselves for a while and don't go to the Baron Ocean. Even if you only catch a glimpse of a battle between rulers from afar, there's a possibility of things getting out of control, let alone the Mysterious Emperor taking action."

After Marshal Gaius finished speaking, he casually tapped the table twice, then lay down on the golden chair:

"Alright, it's time for you to freely exchange information."

Next, starting with the three elders of the angelic rank, the members of the Augustus family took turns sharing their experiences over the past period. They spoke more than the angel named Charcus, who had previously spoken tremblingly when facing Marshal Gaius, but now spoke with steady breath and a loud voice.

Cardan nodded:

"Yes, but do you know his purpose?"

Charcus slowly shook his head:

"It's unclear, but according to many eyewitnesses, just before the Roaring Emperor arrived, and just before the Crimson Agent left, on Bluebeard's ship—a burst of starlight exploded, even dimming the sky for a moment."

Gaius, who had only intended for family members to interact, suddenly reached out and tapped the table twice, the two "thump-thump" sounds echoing in the banquet hall.

The oval marble table fell silent as everyone looked at him with respect.

This is one of the rules of the Augustus family's monthly dinner party: when the head of the family has something to add, he will tap the table twice.

Given Marshal Gaius's dominant position, every word he added was extremely important, often containing information or intelligence that other family members would never have access to.

Therefore, everyone waits with utmost respect.

Only Xia Fa's eyes flickered.

Only now did he finally learn the name, or rather, the title, of the extraordinary monarch wearing the mask with fangs and a demonic face.

Return to "Crimson Agents"

Just then, Marshal Gaius spoke up:

All the members of the Augustus family gasped, their eyes widening involuntarily, their faces filled with horror.

The major news is coming one after another, more than all the major events of the past few years combined!

"What's wrong with this world? In the past, it might not even happen once in hundreds of years for someone to sign a secret pact of supreme power, but our Augu Kingdom has produced two in a row?"

A burly old man with blond hair like a lion's mane spoke.

His face exuded an air of authority without anger, clearly indicating that he had long held a high position and was one of the three angels of the Augustus family.

But at this moment, this elder of the angelic order had a look of deep emotion on his face:

"First, there was the Silver Throne signatory from the Mist God Hunting Grounds, who, with his Whale-level rank, killed the critically wounded and dying Angel-level Black Abyss Worm. Now, there's another signatory from the Gate of Stars, who managed to escape from the hands of the Crimson Agent, this extraordinary monarch. This is truly..."

Charles also sighed:

"Yes, those two. If our Augustus family could win over either of them, there would be hope for a resurgence!"

Xia Fa listened silently, not daring to speak.

Because, in fact, the so-called signatories of the Silver Throne and the Gate of Stars were both him—

Although Cardan's expression was serious, comparable to that of Marshal Gaius, whom he couldn't tell was his great-grandfather or great-great-grandfather, his tone was also full of emotion:

"If only our family members could also sign a supreme-level secret pact, it's such a pity that my spiritual intuition won't guide me at all."

5

Marshal Gaius, however, revealed a rare smile:

However, Marshal Gaius seemed completely unconcerned and instead full of anticipation.

"By the way, have you found any information about the person who signed the Silver Throne?"

Marshal Gaius added a follow-up question, his expression revealing anticipation.

As soon as the Silver Throne signer appeared in the Mist God Hunting Grounds and killed the demigod-level supernatural creature "Forbidden Chains" with an extremely powerful and domineering manner, he immediately issued a search mission to his family members.

Everyone was asked to do everything possible, utilize all their connections, to find out about the signatory of the Silver Throne, and to try to win him over as much as possible.

Everyone shook their heads, even Charles and the lion-like old man.

Marshal Gaius's expression turned serious again, but his tone did not contain much of a punitive intent:

"It's alright, just do your best to find them. Now we have an additional task: to find this signatory of the Gate of Stars with the same standards and efforts, and to win them over as much as possible. Whatever conditions they propose, we must meet them as quickly as possible."

All the members of the Augustus family nodded solemnly, expressing their determination to do their best.

This made the younger generation of the Augustus family envious, and at the same time, they secretly hoped for it.

This is the treatment afforded to those who sign a top-tier secret pact!

At this moment, whether it was Frederick, Glenn, or Anospa, they all inexplicably hoped that one day their spiritual intuition would guide them to a supreme-level secret contract, even though they knew the possibility was very, very small.

Marshal Gaius stopped speaking, but maintained his upright posture, even while leaning against the back of the golden chair.

He always acts like a soldier, no matter what.

The viscous black light on the floor-to-ceiling window gradually faded away.

For some reason, Xia Fa felt that these family members all seemed relieved.

"Alright, the rest of the time is yours. Those who haven't eaten enough, keep eating; those who haven't drunk enough, keep drinking. I have things to do."

Marshal Gaius stood up as he spoke, seemingly preparing to leave.

At the same time, a large number of male and female servants quickly entered, but without making much of a sound. With the utmost speed and the most attentive manners, they began to clear the table of leftovers and replace them with fresh food and drinks.

The members of Augustus's family all stood up, bowed to Marshal Gaius, the head of the family, and watched him leave.

Everything seemed orderly and efficient. The servants quietly cleared the table, and everyone bowed with their hands on their thighs. Marshal Gaius turned around, picked up his scarlet halberd, and prepared to leave with great neatness and efficiency.

Wow!

But at that moment, a massive amount of mercury vapor suddenly gushed out, engulfing the entire banquet hall!

Boom! ! !

A loud bang erupted, and from the star-blue mercury vapor, a servant's figure was sent flying backward, crashing violently into the French windows!

Splash!

The glass of the French windows shattered, and his body flew out with shards, crashing heavily into the garden outside the banquet hall, creating a large crater in the soil!

call out!

The three-and-a-half-meter-tall metal humanoid suddenly broke through the mercury vapor, transforming into a star-blue radiance. All the star-blue mercury vapor in the servant's banquet hall converged towards him. On his three-meter-long horse-slaying saber, the black iron blade flashed with a chilling silver light, cold and sharp as a glint of light.

The 3.9-meter-tall metal humanoid leaped high into the air, raised its saber high, and slashed down at the deep pit in the garden!

The silver blade, like a bolt of lightning, carried unparalleled power, as if it were about to slice through the entire palace, plunging into the deep pit of earth!

Marshal Gaius was the first to react. He was usually very calm, but his eyes widened in surprise at first. However, after realizing what was happening, his expression turned to great joy and deep appreciation.

The members of the Gaugustus family, regardless of age, have rarely seen such an expression on the patriarch's face since birth!

Immediately afterwards, the three angels, including Charcus, also reacted. Just as they were about to make a move, Marshal Gaius stopped them with a gesture.

Then, the demigods like Kaldan and Axor realized what had happened. Even the aloof Kaldan leaned back slightly.

His pupils suddenly contracted as he stared incredulously at the demonic-looking metal humanoid figure in the garden.

Frederick was the first among the younger generation to look towards the garden. Glenn, Anopas, and the others, after a brief moment of surprise, also looked towards the garden after the star-blue mercury vapor was absorbed by the metal humanoid figure.

The difference was that among the younger generation of the Augustus family, the men were filled with envy and admiration, while the beautiful girls looked at the metal humanoid in the garden with shining eyes and adoration.

The next moment, Marshal Gaius solemnly waved his hand, and the invisible barrier outside the entire Augustan palace flashed.

All news and intelligence have been isolated and will never be leaked out again. Unless the mysterious emperor or an even more powerful being arrives, no one will be able to detect it.

After unleashing a slash at the metal humanoid figure, he did not relax at all, immediately turning his head to look at the southwest corner of the garden.

It was a body like that of a demon god, robust and agile, tall and majestic, extremely ferocious and extremely majestic.

Yet his wrists and ankles were adorned with starlight, and the spikes on his shoulders and knees also shimmered with starlight, making him appear both mysterious and sublime.

Like messengers of gods from the depths of the starry sky, they came to bring judgment and divine punishment to all evil in the world.

The next moment, in the northwest corner of the garden, weeds grew wildly, and fallen leaves gathered together, coalescing into the figure of a middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man was dressed as a servant, with dark gold hair and a sculpted face, but he was covered in shocking injuries.

He appeared to have been struck in the back with great severity; half of his shoulder and arm had vanished. Strangely, no blood or fluid oozed from the wound; instead, countless emerald vines and buds were growing there.

"Beppendelba? How come he's a demigod?"

Cardan fell silent, his expression quite bewildered.

Beppondelba, an old servant who has served in the Augustan royal palace for more than a decade.

Although this Beppo Delba was rather slow and occasionally liked to hide in the toilet to slack off, he would slack off for several hours at a time.

He was a man of few hands, but once he got to work, he was extremely serious. This led the Augustus family to keep employing him, and as the years he served the Augustus family increased, his salary also increased.

Yesterday, Cardan scolded him for almost splashing dirty water on his shoes while mopping the floor.

But Beppondelba, as always, just smiled honestly and wasn't bothered by it. He continued doing what he was doing, and Cardan, of course, wouldn't bother arguing with a servant.

Now, both Cardan himself and other family members who remembered this servant were extremely surprised!

The gods didn't even notice his problem!

What exactly does he want to do?

What was his purpose in infiltrating the Augustus family?

Fortunately, he's been exposed now.

Exposed to the domineering and unparalleled offensive of the Silver Throne Signer who has recently been the subject of much discussion and appeared in the Mist God Hunting Grounds!

The demonic-looking metal humanoid suddenly opened its back, revealing countless exhaust vents that spewed out star-blue mercury vapor.

With a flash like a contraction of light, he suddenly appeared in front of Pompeii and struck again!

Pompeii had no intention of fighting him to the death. His right arm suddenly grew to ten meters in length, and with all his might, he swung it. Then, his figure spread out into more than fifty afterimages, which scattered and rushed towards the high wall outside the garden!

He actually wanted to escape! And he wanted to escape at all costs!

His right arm was severed by the metal humanoid without any doubt, but his body then disintegrated into fallen leaves, which was clearly not his original form.

The fifty-odd afterimages in his hand, some of them already about to reach the corner of the high wall, were about to leap up.

But just then, a dazzling, star-like silver light shone from above the garden!

It was a sun, but it was a sun formed from flowing mercury! Its diameter was over a thousand meters, stretching almost across the sky above the palace, illuminating the night as if it were daytime!

From the outside, the Augustus family's palace appeared completely quiet; not a single sound, movement, or glimmer of light escaped.

Hundreds of mercury beams erupted from the mercury sun, like sharp spikes, unleashing an extremely fierce and domineering attack that precisely targeted every fleeing figure!

These pillars of mercury light contained a destructive aura that even the angels like Chalcos found terrifying. It seemed that no defense could withstand it, and any being that dared to stand in front of it would be instantly destroyed, leaving no room for any thought of resistance.

"Destroyed Silver—"

The old man with lion-like golden hair uttered these words with trembling hands, and the illusory image of the mercury sun was reflected in his emerald pupils.

Even with the knowledge of an angel, they were mistaken.

This is because the core secret power of the Silver Throne and the Gate of Stars merged, and the Silver of Destruction was upgraded to the Silver of Star Destruction!

More than fifty figures appeared, most of whom immediately disintegrated into fallen leaves upon being struck by the mercury beam.

However, three phantoms turned around simultaneously, pushing their palms forward in an attempt to block the mercury beam!

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!

On each of the three phantom figures, an identical pocket watch exploded.

Suddenly, a clock, twisted like melting wax, appeared around them. The hands of the clock rapidly reversed, and a rapid, intense ticking sound filled the surrounding void.

As the three beams of mercury light were about to approach the three identical figures, they suddenly slowed down, as if they had been trapped in a viscous gel, and time itself seemed to stand still.

Seeing that they had seemingly successfully withstood the destructive attack of the mercury beam, the three identical Pompeian figures all showed joy on their faces.

Just as Charcus and the blond-haired, bearded old man were about to make a move, Marshal Gaius once again raised his hand to stop them.

The two angelic elders looked at Marshal Gaius with considerable surprise, but all they saw on the patriarch's face was a deep confidence and absolute appreciation for the metallic figure.

The next moment, above the mercury sun, which was a kilometer in diameter and resembled a star, a flash of light appeared, and the demon-like metallic humanoid suddenly appeared!

The three-meter-long saber in his hand had disappeared at some point, but the metal claws on his hands were emitting a chilling light, as bright as cannonballs about to explode!

Repeat!

He crossed his arms and swung them at the thousand-meter-diameter mercury sun, his claws disappearing into the mercury sun!

The mercury sun shuddered violently, as if it had suffered a severe blow.

beep--!!!

A column of mercury light, a hundred meters in diameter, erupted from beneath the mercury sun, like a giant silver python, carrying an incomparably fierce momentum, and shot towards the three identical figures that were about to dissipate!

This was an extremely shocking, domineering, and powerful strike that was impossible to resist. The mercury beam was like the radiance descending from the sun, with divine violence surging within it, and its speed was unbelievable!

The members of the Augustus family even had a feeling that the entire palace would be completely destroyed. The air and the ground shook violently, and the flowers, plants and trees in the garden withered and died rapidly.

The three Pompeii figures had no time to react. Their expressions turned to extreme terror in an instant, but their faces were immediately illuminated by the dazzling silver light, and their figures were completely submerged by the hundred-meter-diameter mercury pillar.

All that remained was a dark pit, and his body and limbs were also trapped inside.

This demigod was nothing but an empty shell.

Xia Fa squatted down, his gaze sweeping over the empty shell of Pompeii, before reaching out to touch the lower back of his body.

It was hard to describe the feeling, but he clearly sensed something in Pompeii's lower back—something that he found extremely repulsive and disgusting.

This was the first time Xia Fa had ever felt this way. Not only did he feel extremely repulsed and disgusted by that thing, but it also gave him the feeling that it was rejecting and disgusting him.

Gashaffa immediately realized that this must be some kind of evil entity.

But it is also highly likely that this is the very thing that Dick Tudor needs!

He found a small bottle on the lower back of Pompeii's body and took it out.

The small bottle was quite exquisite, made of platinum, and had a hook on its body, which is how it was hung on Pompeii's belt.

However, Xia Fa recognized it at a glance—it was actually a black bag!

And that thing that he loathed and rejected so much, and that he loathed and rejected so much, was in this black bag!

Xia Fa's silvery-white metal hand immediately opened a hole and put the black bag away.

Of course, we can't go inside to see what's inside right now; we just need to make sure that the things Dick wanted are still there.

"Pompeii is finally dead, which avenges myself and those refugees by half. Next is—"

R

In Xia Fa's mind, the image of the extraordinary monarch wearing a mask with fangs and a ghostly face appeared, along with the scene of him frantically slicing a revolver across his suit sleeve and pointing it at his own temple.

Whizzing!

The next moment, before Xia Fa could even stand up, three figures suddenly appeared in front of him.

Those were Marshal Gaius, Elder Charcus, and another elder with lion-like hair.

Immediately afterwards, another figure appeared, this time behind Xia Fa.

The figure was shrouded in a black robe and, apart from rising to respectfully see Marshal Gaius off as he was about to leave, had not uttered a single word throughout the entire banquet.

However, he sat to the right of Marshal Gaius, clearly the most powerful and highest-ranking member of the entire Augustan family besides Marshal Gaius.

"No need, he's a member of our family. We're all one family, there's no need to be wary of him."

Marshal Gaius spoke, looking at the figure in black robes.

The figure in black robes nodded, said nothing more, and then suddenly disappeared.

Marshal Gaius then withdrew his gaze and looked at the ferocious, imposing, and domineering metal humanoid, speaking with a smile:

"Xiafa?"

There were over a hundred people present, all core members of the Augustus family; none of them were fools.

The moment the metal humanoid burst through the broken window and slashed at Beppo Delba, everyone realized who was missing from the banquet hall.

It was precisely because of the absence of Shaphat, who was attending the banquet for the first time and had just been recruited into the family by Axo and Glenn because of his surname Augustus!

No, his name isn't just Xia Fa, it's "

With a whoosh, a massive amount of mercury vapor erupted, and Xia Fa slowly transformed from the 3.9-meter-tall metallic humanoid back to his original height.

The star-blue amber melted and flowed into the openings in his ears, nostrils, eye sockets, wrists, and ankles.

This scene was actually quite bizarre and terrifying, making the young people not far away tremble.

But then, when Xia Fa's figure was revealed, the entire banquet hall was immediately in an uproar!

"It really is Xiafa!"

"My God! It's him! The one who signed the Silver Throne at the Mist God Hunting Grounds, it's him!"

"Looking at it this way, he's not a bug-level being at all! He's clearly a whale-level being!"

"Whale-level? That's too simplistic. This is a whale-level being capable of killing demigods and even slaying critically wounded, dying angel-level supernatural beings!"

"I knew it! Xia Fadu now bears the surname Augustus, how could he be simple! He truly is a long-lost blood relative of our Augustus family!"

"Keep it a secret! It must be kept a secret! This matter absolutely cannot be leaked, especially not to those guys like Selenes!"

"Haha, definitely. With the patriarch present, all the servants will have their memories erased. As for us, of course, we can't utter a single word!"

"Glenn, you're amazing! Did you know that Shafa was the signatory to the Silver Throne and the future transcendent monarch, which is why you went to such lengths to bring him in?"

"And Elder Axo, he truly rendered a great service to our family this time!"

Especially the arrogant members of the Augustus family: Tian Meng is a member of the Augustus family, but they all know in their hearts that his bloodline does not belong to the Augustus family, and he has no connection with the Augustus family at all.

After all, Xia Fa had black hair and black eyes. If he had even a trace of the blood of the Augustus family, it would be impossible for him to have no golden hair or blue eyes at all.

However, this was clearly a weakness that would cause him to be intentionally or unintentionally alienated or rejected by his family.

Now, however, it has become an advantage!

This means that Xia Fa could be just like those who were previously recruited into the Augustus family, becoming the son-in-law of the Augustus family and having so many outstanding, gentle, elegant, dignified, kind, and wealthy beautiful girls in the Augustus family waiting for him to choose!

In the garden, Marshal Gaius looked at Shafa with obvious admiration, which even surprised Charcus and another angelic elder.

"Shafa, I won't question why you killed Bepongdelba, because we are family. I will support you no matter what you do, as long as you don't actually commit crimes and harm civilians."

Marshal Faneus continued, smiling, "..."

"So, I'd like to talk to you privately next, is that alright?"

Facing this legendary figure from the Kingdom of Augu, the renowned Marshal Gaius, who had even once been His Majesty Gaius, Shafa naturally wouldn't refuse, and responded with equal politeness:

"Of course, Marshal."

Marshal Gaius nodded, waved his hand, and the crimson banner behind him rose without wind.

"Please sit down."

Marshal Gaius gestured for Shafa to sit down.

Xia Fa didn't stand on ceremony; he pulled out a chair next to the desk and sat down immediately.

As soon as he sat down, he spoke first:

"The two snow demon out-of-control incidents some time ago"

Master Yuan, do you still remember me?

He paused slightly, then added:

"Also, have you noticed that the number of refugees who went missing in the Kingdom of Augu was somewhat unusual for a period of time?"

Marshal Gaius was clearly an extremely intelligent man; with just a flash of light in his eyes, he seemed to have already understood something:

"You mean all of this is related to Beppendelba?"

Xia Fa nodded, his tone becoming even more serious:

"Yes, and his name isn't Bepohndelba at all, it's Pompeii, Pompeii Bald!"

Marshal Gaius narrowed his eyes slightly:

"Pompeii Bald? Wasn't that a minor local nobleman from the Kingdom of Augu who died over a hundred years ago?"

Xia Fa nodded slightly:

"It's him! He's not dead at all! Not only is he alive, he's become one of the Crimson Agent's henchmen! Whether it's the two instances of the Snow Demon going out of control or the missing refugees, it was all his doing!"

"What did you say? Not only did he survive, but he also became Hong Daixing's subordinate?"

Marshal Gaius knew better than anyone that the Crimson Executor was an extremely dangerous figure, a transcendent monarch, active in the Kingdom of Augu, the Empire of Wave Moon, and the Cloth Bag Dynasty!

In particular, the Crimson Agents also signed the "Conditions Forever" contract, which is the most bizarre and difficult to defend against among the top ten hegemon-level secret contracts!

Xia Fa, however, was somewhat different:

"Marshal, you seem to have some connection with this Crimson Executor?"

Marshal Gaius sighed softly. He looked like a resolute and serious middle-aged soldier, but only at this moment did he give Shagafa the feeling of an old monster who had lived for many years.

"Of course I know it, that was over six hundred years ago—"

He raised his head and looked directly into Xia Fa's eyes:

"Originally, only those of our family at the level of Angel or above were qualified to know about this matter. But now, as the signatory of the Silver Throne, a hegemonic-level secret pact, and the future transcendent monarch, you are already considered a core member of our family and are also qualified to know."

He shook his head gently, a look of reminiscence in his eyes, tinged with an indescribable emotion:

"That's the story of our family and the Selenes family, the secret that everyone in the Kingdom of Augu is curious about: why I, six hundred years ago, gave up the throne—"
