"The Gus family?" About a quarter of an hour later, on the cherry wood sofa in the living room of the manor, Svein leaned against the table and chair and squinted his eyes: "All this was inferred by the little widow of Morronto?"

"Note your words, old guy." Rox gave the other person a blank look: "How old are you, and you still have the same ruffian look as before."

"Tsk, labor and capital have always been like this. I didn't expect you to dislike labor and capital before? Now you look like you have been stepped on your tail. What's wrong? Are you interested in that widow?"

"Shut up!!" Rox's face turned red. He looked at the stunned Galen beside him and coughed lightly, "What do you think of her statement?"

"The loophole is very big." Svein drank tea and said, "But it's not impossible that you still remember the last battle of the king? Before the final battle with the chief of the Hammer of Destruction, the Gus family was attacked by an assassin."

King, was attacked? Which king? Jialun next to him was stunned and thought in a daze.

When Luo Kes heard this, his face suddenly became gloomy. He naturally knew which king the other party was talking about. In this guy's eyes, he would not regard the foolish emperor on the seat as the king!

Rox: "I'm honest, even though I suspected there was an insider at the beginning, I never thought it would be the Gus family, that family."

Gus family?

Gallon was confused at this time, but he thought he was with Rox to relax, but he heard one secret after another that shocked him.

The former imperial marshal, a generation of military gods, ghosts and foxes, is still alive, and takes office as emperor. The emperor who is known as the most powerful military achievements in all generations except the second generation of Martial Emperors actually died in murder? The most important thing is that the two bigwigs suspect the Gus family is the Gus family!

The Gus family, the prime ministers of all generations, isn’t this too crazy?

"I actually suspected it at the beginning," Svein sighed: "The Gus family is very fragile due to genetic diseases. They cannot practice martial arts and are difficult to become a mage. Therefore, in terms of intelligence and order control, this family is the best in all families in the empire to assassinate the king within the Gus family. After that, there is no clue. Apart from the cooperation of the Gus family, I can't find a second reason to be honest."

Rox lowered his head when he heard this. The other party was right. Because of genetic diseases, the Gus family could not cultivate illegitimate children as private force like other nobles. All the force was hired outsiders. In order to ensure safety, the family did a very rigorous approach in order and intelligence.

He didn't doubt that he could plan such an assassination within the Gus family and did not miss the situation afterwards.

But

"Since you doubt it, why didn't you say it?" Rox asked with a frown.

"I can't think of a motive," Svein sighed and added a cup of black tea to the other party, saying quietly: "In the empire, no family can be more honored than them. For thousands of years, a family that cannot produce knights and mages can be honored for so long. Which force will give them so much benefits?"

Rox nodded after hearing this. In this world, the family of pure civil officials is difficult to last for a long time. After all, it is an extraordinary world. In the countries of the Western Archipelago, no matter how high your political talents are, it is basically difficult to stand out if there is no great wizard in the family. This example of the Gus family is a miracle. Even in the Ghost Empire, there will never be a second case.

In this case, what kind of interests will make them betray the empire?

Svein pointed to the map and said, "The little widow's speculation is a big game. The contradiction is that the Gus family is not super-handers, and they do not have the ability. A family without strong people cannot control other ambitious cooperative accomplices, but if they dominate them, what is the meaning of betrayal? In the empire, their family status is already high enough. If they don't reach the top, what else can they pursue under their own lives?"

Rox lowered his head silently when he heard this. If it were the past, he might have been convinced by the other party's words, but now

"What if someone could solve the inherited disease of the Gus family?"

"What?" Svein was shocked when he heard this, and almost subconsciously denied it: "How is it possible?"

Each generation of the Gus family invests a lot of money to those alchemists in order to find a solution to their bloodline diseases. Even the guardians of several generations of the Mystery Tower have personally inquired and studied their family's diseases, but they have not found a solution.

This is something that people generally recognize that cannot be solved.

"It is not impossible for an organization that can make the dead heroes come alive to serve them," said Rox.

Svein was stunned and then smiled and said, "I heard that you are going to ask someone to open the coffin of the Tower of Glory, you really dare to think about it."

"You don't believe what I said?" Rox said to him.

"It seems you are serious," Svein sighed and shook his head: "To be honest, I might just use the stick to drive people away!"

"But if I follow my guess, will the logic be fully understood?" Rox said quietly.

Svein was silent when he heard this.

Indeed, if there is any benefit that can make the Gus family rebel, it can solve his family's blood disease. This is a very important motivation.

With the huge wealth of their family, if this disease can be solved, how many excellent knights and mages cannot be cultivated?

After all, who would be ordinary to become an extraordinary family?

"You came to me just to think that I agree with your crazy point of view?" Svein said curiously.

"I came to you to consult," Rox pointed to the cities on the map and said, "If my crazy guess is true, how do you think we can get out of the predicament?"

"It's hard," Svein looked at the map and shook his head: "Once this kind of encirclement attack occurs, with the power of the imperial capital, it will be difficult to drag the border troops back to the rescue. If you want to win, you can only transfer the border troops in advance."

When he said this, Svein paused for a moment, then looked at the other party and said, "You guy, you came here today to pull me into the water?"

"I have no choice, either." Rox murmured and said with a wry smile: "You can only rely on you! In this empire, you are the only one who can talk to the border army without the need for a handsome seal."

"The key is how many days can you hold on?"

"Ten Days" Rox smiled bitterly: "If you start attacking, you can reach up to ten days!"

"Ten days?" Svein said with a look on the other side: "In ten days, the border troops could not even get half of the journey away.
