Eagle's Glory

"I will devour them all, and what belongs to me will always belong to me." His small ravings melted lightly into the rain.　　

61. Whereabouts and planning

During the rainy night, Aigron brought his entourage to the outskirts of Milan City. He did not try to enter Milan City rashly at this time, but prepared to find a foothold around.

As I said before, the Milanese don’t have much affection for the Bonaparte family, and the Austrians who now rule Milan also have suspicions about Eggron, and he can’t risk revealing his identity.

Fortunately, he had already considered this issue before leaving Bavaria.

While sending Teresa away, he also sent his secretary Leon Esposito to quietly go south to Milan to prepare a relatively safe place for himself.

Leon was the "nephew" of Cardinal Vittorio Esposito, whose family was powerful in Italy, and Aigron believed he could accomplish his task.

In fact, Leon did live up to his trust.

Before coming to Milan, Aigron also specially sent someone to Milan first, contacted Leon, and after confirming that everything was going well with him, he sneaked here at night and let himself come to this destination.

The night was dark, and the clouds and rain completely wiped out the few pedestrians around. They were led by a guide to the outside of a manor, and then walked in quietly.

When Aigron came to the house, Leon Esposito, who had been prepared for a long time, came to greet him.

"Your Majesty, long time no see." His secretary smiled and saluted him respectfully. "I can finally serve you again. This is the manor I bought for you. Now the servants in it have been dismissed. Only our people stay here. You can regard this as your foothold. "

"Long time no see, Leon." Aigron changed his raincoat, and then turned his head to look at the other party. "Do you have any good news for me?"

"Yes, Your Majesty." Leon nodded, "Your feat shocked and shocked the whole of Europe. Even in our place, there are people whispering for you. Of course, some people praise you, and some people cursing you..."

"It doesn't matter." Aigron shook his head, "I don't care whether people praise me or curse me, I just worry that everyone will forget me. Since they are all chanting my name now, then I have succeeded."

Having said that, Aigron actually attaches great importance to his image, and he really hopes that he can continue to establish his brave and fearless image in this adventure—however, the news from France has not yet come, he I don't know how public opinion is fermented.

But he guessed that there must be many people cheering for him.

"You must be very tired now?" Leon saw the tiredness on Aigron's body, "Someone has prepared water, you can take a hot bath first."

"Very good." Aigron nodded, then turned his head and looked at the people who came with him, "You all settle down, Andre, come to my room with Leon later, I will I have something to tell you."

"Yes!" André Davout and Leon agreed together.

Then, Aigron ran over, changed his wet and muddy clothes, and took a hot bath.Soon, the fatigue on his body was swept away, and after putting on new clothes, his whole body seemed to be completely new.

He returned to the master's room, and at this time, his two confidants were already waiting here.

When they saw Eggron, they all stood up and saluted, but Eggron just nodded slightly and motioned them to sit down again.

Then Aegron looked at their faces.

"Leon, do you have any questions you want to ask me? You seem hesitant to speak." Aigron asked with a smile.

"Your Majesty, I do have some doubts in my heart." Leon nodded awkwardly after being told by Aigron, and then he stopped hesitating, "Why did you come here on purpose? Although there is no French here for you, It's so dangerous, but there are potential risks after all, once the Austrians learn of your whereabouts, I'm really not sure what they will do..."

Aigron looked at André Davout, and found that although he hadn't spoken, he still had a look of deep approval on his face.

In their opinion, since the adventure activities in France are over, Egron should return to Ioannina as soon as possible to join his wife Teresa, plan the next move, and wait for the birth of the child by the way. Another adventure in the territory controlled by the Habsburg family.

Aegron knew that he should not keep his mouth shut about them now—they were all by his side, the strength he had to rely on, and because of this, he couldn't keep them ignorant of his intentions.

He wants to selectively tell part of the truth.

"You asked a good question." Eggron replied softly, "I think I should tell you too."

The two immediately pretended to be listening attentively.

"Actually, this story is very long, and I'm not in the mood to explain it to you from beginning to end." Aigron immediately began to explain to them, "To put it simply, I found him from my righteous brother, Prince Eugene. Give me the documents left behind, he told me that before leaving Italy, the empire once left some treasures here, and he hopes to leave those things to me, because I am the heir of the empire."

"Treasure?" Andre and Leon were quite shocked, so they looked at each other.

"Yes, the empire ruled this land in those years, and naturally accumulated a lot of wealth." Aigron nodded, "At that time, when the Austrians came to fight, the soldiers were in a hurry, and when Prince Eugene left here Rather hastily, he didn't have time to collect all these treasures and take them away, but let them continue to wander here."

Aigron deliberately concealed the true source of these treasures, firstly because he did not want to damage the image of the empire in these people's minds; secondly, he felt that he didn't need to care about the source at all, as long as it was from the empire, the rounding was his responsibility. Yes, who cares about the original owner.

His explanation also slightly solved the doubts in the hearts of the two people, at least they got a reason to understand the current situation.

"I understand, Your Majesty, if there is such a wealth, it will indeed be of great help to us. I also thank you for your trust in me, and you are willing to tell me this." Leon Esposito Came back to his senses, "So, where are they?"

"I don't know." Aegron shook his head. "My foster brother had no direct dealings with the people who kept the property, nor did he know what they did with the treasure, and of course he couldn't possibly know what happened to them."

Having said that, he changed the topic, "Of course, I'm not at a loss. He provided me with some key information."

[To tell the truth, I have been using Mimi to read and read books recently, change sources, and read aloud with many timbres. www.mimiread.com can be used for both Android and Apple. 】

"What do you mean?" asked André Davout.

"He left me the general information of a few people, and everything else he knew was sealed in his manuscript." Aigron replied, "These people are the direct persons in charge, and they use disguised identities Covering themselves and operating in Italy for a long time, these identities include nobles and wealthy businessmen. It is conceivable that since they were not questioned by the Austrians when the empire collapsed before, it means that they took advantage of the chaos of the situation to change their disguised identities into made it real, and turned into subjects of the Emperor of Austria—and, using that fortune, they turned themselves into real gentlemen."

"They are traitors." André Davout took the words viciously, and a stern light flashed in his eyes. "They must be punished severely!"

He is loyal to the Bonaparte family. For him, the wealth is the property of the Bonaparte family. Naturally, it can only be used by the lord he is loyal to. It is fine if His Majesty did not restore his freedom before. When His Majesty has regained his freedom If the wealth has not been returned, it can only be described as a "traitor".

To a traitor, of course, there is no need to be polite.

"You're right, Andre." Eggron nodded, "but we need to find them first. We'll find one or two of them in Milan, and then follow the clues to find all of them as much as possible. The property shall be returned to its original owner.”

"Your Majesty!" Leon seemed to think of something. "You just said that they had forged identities before, and Prince Eugene has been away from here for more than ten years. Is it possible that they have changed other forged identities during these ten years? If so, then We’re also looking for a needle in a haystack here.”

"I have also considered this issue." Aigron nodded. "But I think they must have left some clues. It is not easy to be a nobleman. Even in Italy, where nobles are everywhere, it is very difficult to forge a noble pedigree that can be accepted by the upper class. There are flaws. After all, only a dozen years have passed, and it is not enough for them to explain their sudden wealth."

"That also makes sense...but what if they have already left Italy with the money?" Leon still hesitated. "If they've gone elsewhere, there's no need to explain where their wealth came from."

Aigron had to admit that what the other party said was indeed true.

However, he thinks that most of these must still stay in Italy. After all, after obtaining a large amount of wealth, they dare not leave the familiar place where they already have a legal identity, and easily go to other unfamiliar environments—otherwise, they will be in trouble. It's not good for people and money to be empty, and they are robbed by people who covet their property.

"It doesn't matter, whether they are still in Italy or not, as long as we know their existence, I can track them down. Even if they hide in the ends of the earth, I will find them one by one and let them know the fate of traitors! This is not only It is only a question of money, but a question of prestige. You should all know that in those days, there were many people who turned their backs on the empire and the Bonaparte family in exchange for glory and wealth, and I keep these accounts in mind and I am going to give them one by one To liquidate, those people within the borders of France, I have no way to liquidate them yet, but these people now, let them bear the brunt."

"boom!"

Just as he said these words, there was another dull thunder outside the window, and the rain continued to splash.

Aigron temporarily interrupted his words, turned his head and looked out the window, watching the lightning that pierced the night.

"You are right, Your Majesty!" André Davout agreed convincingly, "I fully agree with you."

And Leon - Esposito is still slightly reserved.

"Your Majesty, no matter what, it's still a bit dangerous for you to stay here. Although I can use the previous arrangements and our family's relationship to ensure that nothing will happen temporarily, but after a long time, there will be troubles. I suggest you better make sure There is a time limit, when the time limit is up, no matter what results you get, leave here and go to Ioannina—please don’t forget, we have a foothold now, your safety is more important than any treasure Important. If you make a mistake now, even if you have hundreds of millions of wealth, your career will collapse in an instant... No one can replace you, not even a little bit of your position."

After all, he came from a big family, and Leon Espositosi has more immunity than ordinary people to any kind of wealth. In his eyes, as long as he has power, no amount of property can be gathered with just a snap of his fingers. Adventurers in the Age of Discovery also worked desperately for the so-called treasure.

Of course Aigron knew this, and he knew even more that what the other party said was true.

Teresa is an Austrian, and some of his subordinates are not convinced by her; and his cousins ​​have been marginalized after several deliberate suppressions by him, and they have no prestige to speak of, so naturally it is impossible to succeed her. He; as for his children, they have not yet been born...

Therefore, within his sphere of influence, he is irreplaceable, and everyone can only respect him and wait for him to make a decision—and this is exactly the result of his deliberate effort. He wants to ensure that his authority does not subject to any constraints.

Of course, Aigron also positively recognized these heartfelt words.

"Okay, then let's make it ten days. After ten days, no matter what we gain, we will leave here, what do you think?"

Leon was silent for a moment, then finally nodded.

"Your Majesty, if this is the case, then I have nothing to say. I will do my best to ensure that you are safe and sound during this time... I am fully responsible for your safety, and I will honor your family guarantee."

Aigron couldn't help laughing, and then he patted the other person's shoulder.

"Come on, Leon, don't take extra responsibility for yourself, even God dare not say that I am fully responsible for my safety. Since this is a decision I made, of course I should be responsible for myself, you do well Just do your job."

And at this time, André Davout suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

"Your Majesty..." He glanced at the young man with flickering eyes, and then asked cautiously, "I remember you made an appointment with Princess Maria here, if she doesn't come within ten days, do you want to wait for her...? "

Leon's face became very strange, as if he wanted to laugh but didn't dare to.

Both of them have experienced the scene where Aegron and Maria first met last time, and they also muttered about the relationship between His Majesty and her in private, and they couldn't help being a little embarrassed when they suddenly brought it up at this time.

"No!" Aigron blushed slightly, and then replied angrily.　　

62. Kidnapping

Zhen Dejun has spoken!

This opening made Wu Tian stunned for a moment.

Zhou Nan, the Demon God of the Deep Sea, Emperor Pig, Goddess Moth, etc. were also quite surprised at the moment.

Because Zhen Dejun asked his soul three times, as if he had regained his sanity.

"Who are you? Dare I ask what is this place? Is it the Soaring Dragon Continent? Or the False God Realm?"

Zhen Dejun continued to speak, stood up while speaking, and patted the dust on his body lightly, he found a large dent in his chest, he didn't care, he took a deep breath, his chest swelled, and the dent It returned to its original state.

This made Wu Tian's eyelids twitch involuntarily, he took a step back, and said with a deep expression: "Who is your Excellency, who has been attacked by me so much, is it not hurt at all?"

"Attacked by you? Why did you attack me? Did I offend you?" Zhen Dejun scratched his head, "Is there anyone who can answer my question?"

At this moment, Zhou Nan took two steps forward and asked tentatively, "Have you lost your memory? Don't know who you are?"

Zhen Dejun nodded and said: "Yes, you should have noticed that I am a reformer. I vaguely remember that I seem to have experienced many transformations. The previous transformations were all successful. The reformers are very skilled, but The last remodeling was done by his son. As a result, a huge defect was found. I would short-circuit my brain from time to time, lose memory, and lose consciousness... This kind of thing seems to have happened many times. My memory needs to recover slowly. Now my memory bank only has two place names, namely Longteng Continent and False God Realm. It seems that these two places are very important to me. By the way, I seem to have a big brother named I can’t remember the name. Do you know me? Tell me about me, it can help me recover my memory..."

The crowd looked at each other in dismay.

The agreed big boss has now become a proper time traveler, how can this be done?

Continue to fight or not to fight?

Everyone was a little at a loss, Zhou Nan spread his hands to the gods and demon players, and said: "Everyone, let's show the cards, this boss seems to be unable to be defeated, let's have a few words with him!"

"I'm afraid I won't be able to beat him. He fought so hard before, and he didn't even have a problem!"

"Are we lucky, or unlucky?"

"Maybe it's a good thing..."

After everyone discussed, the Deep Sea Demon God took two steps closer to Zhen Dejun and said, "Second brother, I am actually your elder brother! Your name is Zhen Dejun, and you know how to backstab and electrotherapy..."

Before he could speak, Zhen Dejun interrupted him with a wave of his hand, and said, "Obviously, you are not my elder brother, my elder brother is also a cyborg, and you are an octopus, genetically mutated?"

"Haha!" The Deep Sea Demon God smiled awkwardly, stopped talking, and backed away!

Emperor Pig came forward again and said, "I've heard about the Dragon Continent, which seems to be the territory of the Dragon Slayer Empire. It is said that there is a Dragon Slayer Emperor named Li Hanqiang. Soaring Dragon Continent."

"Li Hanqiang? Such a familiar name... I seem to remember a little bit. My name seems to be Zhen Dejun. I come from the Dragon Slaying Empire? Then I went to the False God Realm? What happened in the False God Realm..."

Zhen Dejun muttered in a low voice, as if he was seriously remembering.

Everyone looked at him quietly, feeling a little at a loss for a while.

After a while, Zhen Dejun remembered some information again, and said to himself, "By the way, I seem to have seen the Yangshen dragon, the priest, and... Xutian Sword! Yes, Xutian Sword, I I want the Xutian sword, I want to learn the Xutian condensed sword!"

Zhen Dejun slapped his head, "Remember, emptiness, emptiness, and illusory all belong to Xutian. These are the three meanings of Xutian's law, but I can't even do the empty sword movement, so how can I learn Xutian?" Congealing the sword?"

He paced back and forth, and said to himself: "The void condenses the sword, but it can't be condensed, it doesn't work. Later, I bought a talisman sword, the Void Sword, from the Xutian Wanjie Building, and forced the sword to walk in the void. What's wrong, that's right, that's right, I stepped on the sword and walked in the void, and came to the unknown void world, but the talisman sword broke down, and I was trapped here! By the way, this small world was imagined by myself, including this altar , this altar is a coordinate, I hope that time and space travelers passing by can find me, but unfortunately, my brain is short-circuited, and I can't remember what I have experienced in the future..."

"Void Condensation Sword Action? Rune Void Sword?"

Zhou Nan was full of doubts when he heard it, and asked, "So you are not a time traveler?"

"No!" Zhen Dejun seemed to have recovered a lot of memories, he said, "Most time travelers are NPCs, they use time travel to create three souls and seven souls, and achieve reality. I don't need it. I am a real person, with three souls and seven souls of."

"What the hell?" Zhou Nan felt even more outrageous, and said, "You are all transformed metal people, and you still have three souls and seven souls?"

"Boy, rude, what do you know?" Zhen Dejun looked proud instantly, "I asked the priests of the Void Heaven Realm to look at it. My three souls and seven souls are very complete. If not, I would not be able to use the Rune Void Sword. You know three Soul?"

"do not know!"

Zhou Nan shook his head with a group of gods and monsters, and even Wu Tian frowned slightly at the moment, looking puzzled and curious.

"Haha, the three souls are the soul of heaven, the soul of earth, and the soul of fate! You are all natives of this void world, you don't have three souls, you only have one soul, which is the sky soul! Do you understand that the sky soul travels in the void?"

"don't know!"

"I know you don't understand!" Zhen Dejun seemed to like popular science, coughed, cleared his throat, and continued: "The soul of the sky travels in the void, the soul of the earth hides the darkness, and there is a god three feet up, and this god is the soul of heaven, the soul of heaven The soul travels through the void, the void is a dream, the heavenly soul can travel through the void at will, if you are dreaming, it is caused by the heavenly soul traveling through the void, do you understand?"

"don't know!"

"It's normal not to understand. The first meaning of the law of the sky is the soul of the sky. I haven't studied it thoroughly. It would be weird if you natives of the void understood it immediately."

[Xuan Jiankong] raised his hand and said: "Dare to ask this reformer, why does he say that we are natives of the void."

"Don't you just want to be void natives? They only exist in dreams!" Zhen Dejun said, "You all have dreams, you are all dreaming, you are all dreamers, understand?"

Everyone shook their heads and said in unison: "I don't understand!"

"Why don't you understand, you are too stupid. Let me tell you this, the void is a world in fantasy, just like a dream, you were born here, you are the people in the dream, only the soul of the sky, no soul of the earth, let alone life soul."

Emperor Pigeon said: "You mentioned fantasy, so it's easier to understand. So, is that so?"

When Zhou Nan heard this, his heart skipped a beat. Could it be that he is only in the form of a heavenly soul now?
