Chapter 1099: Everyone wants to’ change ‘
The Prime Minister of Britain, as well as the governments of the rest of Europe’s monarchical countries, as well as those behind-the-scenes countries that were coveting genetic technology, would all have their eyes on Benjamin’s attendance at the banquet of the British royal family!
At that time, who could say for sure what would happen?
It was not an exaggeration to say that Benjamin was being roasted on the fire.
The politicians in Britain and all the countries controlled by old Ross had two goals to kill Benjamin.
One was that if Benjamin successfully allowed the British royal family to bring the people into the Outlanders ‘Union, then the British government would be dissolved for nothing, and Britain would really be allowed to leave Europe. Then, the different parties in the other small countries would take similar measures to disintegrate the country’s investment in the Outlanders’ Union. So, the current governments would definitely not let the British royal family take the lead!
And who was the key person?
That was Benjamin!
On the other hand, taking advantage of the fact that genetic technology wasn’t fully developed yet to get rid of this initiator, then the deviant Corp would disband in the near future, so who would want the deviant Corp to disband the most? Of course, it was the United Nations!
So, there were too many reasons and people who wanted Benjamin dead!
Old Ross met the Butler in the castle.
“You’re going out?” The Butler was being massaged by a maidservant in his bedroom as he spoke. He did not seem to be surprised by old Ross’s intention to go out.
Old Ross nodded. After a moment of hesitation, he said,””The outside world is in chaos. The entire Europe has lost to the genetic problem. The people are angry. If I don’t come out to clean up the situation, I’m afraid all of our people will be overthrown. We need a backbone at this time. As you can see, the Duke doesn’t seem to care about anything.”
“Don’t you know his personality?” The Butler rolled his eyes at Ross.
Old Ross seemed to be pleading for mercy.”I know that nothing in this world can affect the Duke. However, we are not as open-minded as he is. We can’t just ignore the hundred-year foundation outside.”
The Butler muttered to himself for a long time, staring at old Ross and asking him for no reason,””You don’t trust the Duke? Since he doesn’t want your family to go out, he definitely doesn’t want anything to happen to you. Don’t worry about what’s happening outside, you’ll definitely be killed by that kid if you go out!”
Old Ross didn’t dare to speak. It was obvious that he had some reservations about what he was going to say next.
“If you have something to say, just say it.” The Butler said.
Old Ross was silent for a while, and then said,””The Duke didn’t kill that damned person. I don’t know what’s the point of keeping him alive. Since he’s not willing to join us, he’ll only become a disaster for us. If we had gotten rid of him back then, we wouldn’t be where we are now.”
“Are you questioning the Duke’s decision?”
“No, I don’t dare to. I just feel that Xu Cheng is a very dangerous person, so we shouldn’t let him go. As long as we have a little understanding of his past, we can clearly see that as long as we don’t completely kill him and let him run away, when he stands up again, he will always be stronger than before.”
“What the Duke Wants is for him to be strong.” “Alright, since you want to go out, I’ll let you out. But you know the rules,” the Butler said word by word.
“Understood,” Ross quickly thanked him.
The Butler got up and brought him to the basement of the castle. Immediately, the castle’s servants covered old Ross’s head and took him onto a boat, which floated out along the castle’s moat.
Perhaps the attendant had taken the wrong piece of black cloth. This time, the black cloth was a little thin, and it was not that one could not see anything after the head was covered. Old Ross was a little surprised that his eyes could see all the scenery and the way back and forth from the river!
But he didn’t say anything, pretending that he didn’t see anything. But in his heart, he was filled with endless ecstasy and excitement.
A hundred years!
Any outsider who entered the castle to see the Duke had to be brought in by the Duke or the Butler. However, as long as they were not servants of the castle, they would be covered with a black cloth and all protective measures would be taken to ensure that the coordinates and position of the castle were exposed.
It could be said that even if the Duke’s most loyal dog, old Ross, wanted to meet him, he had to be brought in under a veil. But now, old Ross had witnessed the entire river route that he had taken to leave the castle. With the development of modern technology, it was still difficult for satellites to find this place. He was now witnessing the entire entrance and exit of Luxian!
It had to be said that the place where the Duke had found his residence was indeed very hidden. For the past hundred years, the British royal family, old Ross, and the two heroes of merica had tried to find the whereabouts of the Duke’s residence, but to no avail.
However, from today onwards, this place would no longer be mysterious. He was the only outsider who knew about this place!
All of a sudden, old Ross felt that he had seized an unprecedented opportunity!
It was a bold and risky idea, but if it succeeded, old Ross would no longer be anyone’s slave!
That’s right, it was a betrayal!
If it was possible, who would want to leave their fate in the hands of others?
Over the past 100 years, the reclusive super-rich and powerful clan that had been worshipped by many people in the world was just a man’s dog!
Who would be willing?
Although the ancestors of the Ross family were loyal, they were no longer as loyal as they appeared to be in the past century under the influence of power and money.
After being used to being the boss, who wouldn’t be infatuated with greed?
When old Ross’s head was covered and the boat drifted away, the Butler stood on a window in the distant Castle and watched him leave.
“It’s been 200 years, and he never dared to expose this place. Young master has long wanted to change, so right now, for him, nothing is more important than a powerful genetic drug. If he can get all the genes in Xu Cheng’s body, he will change everything, and he won’t have to be afraid of hiding here anymore. There’s nothing in the world that he’s afraid of anymore.”
The Butler watched as the small boat disappeared into the black mist. He muttered,””Everyone wants to change, and I’m no exception. He can live for 200 years, but I can only live for 70 or 80 years. Since you’re going to die anyway, why don’t you struggle a little?”
As he spoke, the Butler smiled and thought to himself,”Old Ross, I hope you’re a man of courage! Don’t let my good intentions go to waste.
There had always been a rule in the castle. Once the servants entered, they could not leave for the rest of their lives. Their families and descendants would receive a generous source of money every month, which was the salary for serving the castle. Many people had tried to leave this place, but they had all died!
Not a single one was left alive!
The Butler had been serving here since he was young, and it had already been more than 70 years!
His son was already 20 years old, and he was being brainwashed every day. There was only one signal in his mind, and that was to be loyal to the Duke! In the future, he would walk his own path.
As for his wife, she was executed by the Duke after giving birth to the child!
In the Duke’s words, her being alive would only disturb your heart.
However, the Duke did not know that the death of the Butler’s wife had caused him to Harbor a grudge against the Duke!
