After murmured in a low voice, Gallup chuckled and said to the man in black robe standing beside him.

"Go and let the people below submit a report on what happened in the [Bloody Feast] last night, and it's more detailed."

However, although this tone was a little smile, the man in the black robe did not feel any warmth, his hair was trembling all over his body, and a cold sweat broke out on his back.

Because in the past, the enemies of the Tilros family were often determined in such words.

Or, the unsightly servant disappeared quietly into the family with such laughter.

But no matter which possibility it is, what is contained in it is not as peaceful as it appears on the surface.

"yes."

His heart suddenly tightened, but he did not dare to show any unnecessary expression on his face. He just bowed and responded, then turned around and left.

Looking at the figure of the man in black robe leaving, Gallup tapped his index finger on the desk made of top sequoia, thinking about the information he had just read.

[The son of Deers Augustus has returned.]

[Next, there will definitely be a battle for power and profit within the Augustus family, but I don’t know who wins and who loses on both sides.]

[However, I'm afraid they don't know that the guy who is regarded as a confidant general by both of them will be mine.]

Thinking of this, Gallup unconsciously smiled and was extremely proud of his plan.

However, as if he had thought of something, the smile on his face only appeared for a moment, and the next moment his face became heavy.

[That guy Abbott must be controlled well. Although he made a mistake due to an accident and then fell deeper and was controlled by me, there is also a possibility of backlash.]

【Although this possibility is small, it has to be prevented.】

The light index finger on the table sounds like a jade plate falling from a pearl, crisp and round, with a relaxing feeling.

But Gallup frowned, as if he was worried.

[The concealment of the imperial capital must be done well. As long as the affairs of Dirno City can be resolved before the opening of the conference, then all problems will not be a problem.]

[The substitute is not only about me and several foreigners, but also Spencer Tilross.]

[They are the existences who share honor and disgrace with the Tilros family, so it is impossible to take the initiative to leak secrets.]

【That's very simple, as long as you are not discovered, you can hide it from the world.】

After carefully considering the entire plan from beginning to end, finding all possible problems in each link and preparing the method in advance.

Gallup let out a light breath and relaxed a lot.

[Next, we are waiting for the time to come.]

...

Naturally, Allen didn't know Gallup's plan, and he didn't know that the patriarch of the Tilros family had not set off in Dilno City.

Otherwise, their understanding of the current situation would not be so thin now. Moreover, their understanding of the Tilros family and the Chris family would have been higher, and they would be more likely to infer what the other party was doing.

It's just a pity that they don't know.

So you can only continue on the wrong path.

No, we can't say we have made mistakes, we can only say that we have taken some detours.

After all, whether Gallup is in Dilno City has no impact on the general direction of the whole thing, because the general trend is unstoppable.

But how this process develops depends on the chess-holding people using their own methods.

At this moment, Allen was sitting in the courtyard, waiting for news from Mr. Derria and Ms. Kelly.

Although the Empire has a large communication array that connects the entire territory, due to cost-effectiveness and other reasons, these communication arrays only exist in large cities such as main cities and fortresses.

In the past, if the empire needs to convey any orders, it is often passed to the main city first, and then sent from the main city to the relevant affiliated towns.

Therefore, it is timely to reach the main city and fortress level, but when it goes down, it is a bit delayed.

Of course, because of the arrival of the steam era, the interval between them is much less than in the past.

Although it still takes time, it is already extremely satisfying.

Of course, there is no need for this to be the case for Dirno and Gria. One is the guardian city of the imperial capital, with an extraordinary status, and the other is one of the three only main cities in the northern border, and it has the right to directly connect with the imperial capital.

If Allen was on the communication network within the empire, it could be almost instant communication, and it would be no problem to talk to Ms. Kelly and Mr. Derria for voice calls.

After all, their strength gives them the corresponding authority.

But the problem is that their situation is not suitable for this now.

The entire communication network connecting the major main cities and fortresses of the empire is a design set by the Dawn Empire when it was founded, and it is one of the last afterglows of the extraordinary era that is dying and fading away.

Therefore, this involves all aspects of forces, the royal family, the great nobles, and even the scholars on the eastern plains of the empire.

Of course, those guys who run through the sky and the ring of truth were basically invited to help. They may have little thoughts, but they must not have too many.

But the great nobles are different.

For so many years, the great nobles and the royal family have always been in love and fight each other, and you have me and I have you.

Although more than four hundred years ago, during the empire's turmoil, some of the great nobles left directly and established countries in the south of the empire, forming the current Principal Alliance.

But more, in the past eight hundred years of history, he has been entangled with the royal family and has completely lost track of it.

Therefore, it is hard to say how confidential this communication network established by both parties has.

When it comes to the outside world, this communication network will naturally cause headaches for those who want to crack it.

But internally, it really depends on who has more skills and who has higher authority.

To be honest, this magic communication network that connects the entire empire is not as good as the science-based steampunk communication network built by Charles VII.

After all, at least the latter is literally in the hands of the royal family.

Unlike the former, although it is complicated and mysterious, it is already full of holes.

Therefore, although the authority is sufficient to apply for the use of the Empire Magic Communication Network, Allen still chose a safer method to let Austin pass the news to Ms. Kelly and the others through the royal family.

This method may be a little slower, but at least it is insured.

Allen lowered his head and took a sip of black tea, continued to sit in the courtyard, watching the continuous stream of news from Austin.

Because of their identities, it is difficult to go out now, but this does not mean that they do not pay attention to the current situation.

To be honest, Allen was very curious about how Austin's cruel second uncle would deal with the fierce attacks between the Tilros and the Chris family.

During this boring waiting time, Allen looked at the information in his hand and learned about Dalton's response.

However, for some reason, Dalton has not responded so far, turned a blind eye to the current situation in Dilno City, and had no idea of ​​interfering. He was coldly independent of the outside world, watching all this happening.

It’s not that this method is not good. After all, thinking twice before acting is a good habit, which can make people not feel angry and do things that regret.

But the situation is obviously not the case now. The storm in Dilno City has begun to brew, and no one can stay out of it.

They have entered the game, they are the people in the game, and there is no possibility of exception.

They are like this, and Dalton is even more so.

This is the simplest and most basic fact that cannot be changed.

It is impossible for Dalton, a scheming politician who kills his brother and even wants to kill his nephew, to understand this.

After all, the current situation is no longer a matter of taking a step back or cutting off the loss.

The scene in front of us is obvious. The family's death is at a critical moment.

If you say Dalton, who is more cunning than a fox, did not notice this dangerous aura, Alan would definitely not believe it.

Allen's thoughts spread aimlessly, trying to find new inspiration.

However, Alan, who was puzzled by the other party's actions of watching, did not find a reasonable explanation.

But another question, Allen didn't understand.

Dalton, why don’t there be any children?

This information was actually understood by Allen when he first learned about Dalton's relevant information, but he didn't take it seriously, because although he had been living in this world for more than half a year, Allen's thinking was more inclined to the thinking habits of his previous life.

For example, in his opinion, not having a child is not a big deal. There are so many DINKs in their previous lives, and the unmarried people have set an example with their behavior and told Allen that nothing is impossible.

But you have to know that there are essential differences.

Although in this society that has initially achieved modernization, science and technology have developed rapidly, and productivity and production methods have also undergone great changes.

It seems that everything is moving towards the good.

But there are some bad aspects in this great empire and in this prosperous era.

It is not an imperial system. After all, when the emperor is wise and powerful, the issue of imperial system is not a problem.

This is not good, it refers to other aspects.

For example, whether it was once or now, whether it was a noble or a civilian, the lack of offspring is a huge problem.

Even during the period of Allen's previous life, being unfilial to the three no descendants is a common saying that is widely circulated.

Let's not talk about how many are right or wrong, but the scope of its spread is extremely wide.

Even those who are known as DINK and non-marriage people have to face huge pressure from traditional forces.

Although they still exist and still adhere to their own ideas, the pressure faced by the initial group of people was unprecedentedly huge.

And in this world, the situation is even more serious.

If a person has no descendants, from a realistic point of view, no one will be able to live in his old age, be lonely and helpless, and have a miserable old age.

From a social perspective, it may be considered to be of poor character and do many evil deeds.

Of course, in today's era, the influence of religion has been reduced to a minimum, and rumors have rarely hurt people.

I just don’t know what the Holy See will be like in the future when the Holy See returns to the mainland.

Alan suddenly thought of the strong man Buck whom he met last night and the pretty Virlitt.

He shook his head slightly, took back his thoughts of believing in the horse and returned to the question just now.

For ordinary people, having no descendants is considered a great suffering. For nobles, their importance is far beyond ordinary people's imagination.

Not to mention the other side, for a force, how serious the consequences would be for the person in power without descendants, it can be seen from history.

Although the Augustus family is not a huge force, it can also be regarded as a simple, miniature dynasty.

And the emperor has no queen, what this means is self-evident.

Although this world has extraordinary power, so far, the extraordinary people Alan knows can only prolong their lifespan.

The human silver-level life span is 200 years, which is long enough, but it is not immortal.

So, what exactly is the reason that Dalton has not given birth to a single offspring after eight years of mastering family rights.

You know, if Dalton had descendants at this time, Austin's situation would definitely be more than a hundred times more difficult than today.

Humans are the most adaptable animals. No matter what happens, as long as they do not die, they will continue to adapt to the present.

This may be a bit extreme, but at least most people are like this.

If Dalton August had descendants, then eight years would be enough for Dalton to hold the entire family in his hands.

Even though there are a very small number of diehards of Deers Augustus, most of them will be accustomed to Dalton's rule.

After all, Dals is dead and cannot be resurrected. Although Dalton is despicable, he is also a member of the Augustus family, with blood from the Count of Gun Flame lineage in his body.

For them, Deers is already a past tense, and Dalton is the present and future of the Augustus family.

Of course, this is the case where Dalton has descendants.

Like now, Dalton has no descendants, so he is just now.

As for the future?

It depends on the situation.

If this is not happening now, Dalton may become the future.

But since Austin is back, it is hard to say who will belong to the future.

It is impossible for Dalton not to understand the key, so why he has no descendants is worth thinking about.

Allen thought for a moment and felt his scalp numb and his thoughts became more and more confused.

He can find the problem, but cannot solve it.

This is a lack of information, not a gap in thinking style.

To be honest, Allen is increasingly able to understand why his previous life regarded the information field as the battlefield of the new era.

Know yourself and your enemy and win every battle.

This is a warning left by our ancestors a thousand years ago.

Allen let out a breath, put down the information in his hand, and rubbed his temples.

And just then.
