Doomsday Code

Chapter 639 Attack

At this point, all the misunderstandings have been resolved, and the only one crying here is the Black Dragon King.

However, without giving this background person a chance to speak, Chen Cheng asked Zhu Wan first.

"Just now Samlet asked what other charges you had. Can you tell me about it?"

After Chen Cheng learned that Zhu Wen had been imprisoned by the church for more than a hundred years, he knew that Zhu Wen was able to escape this time, and something big must have happened.

As for whether Chen Cheng ever doubted whether Zhu Wen had joined the church, one can tell by looking at Samlett's attitude towards him.

If there was any chance that he really joined the church, Chen Cheng believed that Samlet would never let him get close to him.

When Zhu Lun heard Chen Cheng's question, he also remembered what the old demon Luantian had told him before he left.

Then he told Chen Cheng everything he knew.

As he spoke, he observed Chen Cheng's expression, fearing that Chen Cheng would be furious when he heard that the old demon Luantian caused his ancestors to lose their country.

However, Chen Cheng was unusually calm. After he finished speaking, he rubbed his chin and asked:

"So, according to that, the old demon Luantian is still of the same generation as my grandfather."

Zhu Lun didn't expect Chen Cheng to ask such a question. He smiled awkwardly and said:

"In fact, according to etiquette, he is already five generations away from Your Majesty. He is only a branch of the branch, so there is no need to discuss any kinship."

Chen Cheng just said "oh" and then clapped his hands and said:

"That's fine, I have nothing more to say."

However, at this moment everyone was looking at him in surprise.

"Well, Your Majesty, aren't you angry? Meris, a member of the royal family, didn't think of serving the empire, but instead aided the tyrant, causing your ancestors to lose their country. Aren't you a little angry?"

Melos now used honorifics.

However, Chen Cheng smiled and said:

"As Master Chikuwa said, he and I are both five generations apart, and he is a branch within a branch.

And if I'm not mistaken, most of the people with the last name Hopes in this world should be related to me a few generations ago.

Should I now say that as descendants of the royal family, they did not seek to serve the king and overthrow the traitors, but instead served the traitors, so they are all traitors to the empire?

Don't be silly, okay?"

Then Chen Cheng smiled strangely again and said:

"And if the empire's collapse is really due to my ancestor's desire to activate the Doomsday Code, as you told me, then perhaps he wasn't betraying the empire, but rather expressing a different kind of loyalty to the empire and the royal family.

Don't forget, this person is the heir to the church that the Pope has been so obsessed with and has repeatedly tried to persuade. If he really betrayed the empire, why would he go to such great lengths to send Master Chikuwa out?

The deep thoughts displayed by Chen Cheng at this time were something Samlett had never seen before, and the others also felt that the person in front of them was not a child who had not even grown all his hair, but a truly powerful leader with strategy.

At this moment, Chen Cheng made Samlet feel a little unfamiliar, but at the same time he also felt very relieved.

At least Your Majesty is no longer a naughty boy, but a truly powerful ruler with strategic plans.

Chen Cheng said this to Samlett and the others not just to show off, but also to tell Samlett and the others that he was not a child who could be easily deceived and fooled.

Because he was not stupid. If there was nothing wrong here, based on his understanding of Samlet's character, he would definitely not send a message to Sheli saying that he was seriously injured or something.

Because he knew that if Samlett himself couldn't handle it, let alone Chen Cheng.

Given Samlet's loyalty to the royal family, he would never put himself in danger.

And judging from the attitude of Herlous and the others towards him, it was clear that they must be hiding something from him.

But he had been there for so long, but he still hadn't told him the real business. Chen Cheng knew it was because Samlett thought he was still a child.

After Chen Cheng finished speaking, he was about to get up and say goodbye. He still wanted to ask Fei Sili and go to Si Fit to hear her suggestions for improving Luanniao No. 1.

At this time, the Black Dragon King, who had been a background figure for a long time, was finally able to speak.

"Wait a minute, I wonder what the Palace Master thinks about my previous proposal to help me break the contract with His Majesty."

It was only then that Samlett remembered this matter.

Then Samlett looked at Chen Cheng. He was also ready to take this opportunity to tell Chen Cheng everything.

"Your Majesty, please take a seat. This matter is for Your Majesty to decide."

Then Samlett told Chen Cheng that before the collapse of the empire, he was ordered by the then King Thornflower XIII to go to Dragon Island.

At the same time, he also told about the thousand-year covenant that the empire made with the elves at the beginning of its establishment.

As for the true content of the agreement, although Samlett had some guesses about it, now that the real owner was here, he couldn't say anything and mislead Chen Cheng.

And all these agreements fell on Chen Cheng, the fifteenth generation of Thorn Flower.

Chen Cheng knew that there must be something going on, but he didn't expect it to be a promise that would last for a thousand years.

“Therefore, Your Majesty, this contract with the Black Dragon King is not just an ordinary contract. It also involves the agreement between the empire and the dragon clan in the past.

I just don't know if you, Black Dragon King, can bear the consequences of breaking this agreement."

The Black Dragon King naturally knew about this contract, but he didn't expect that the contract could not be changed.

His face immediately revealed an expression that was more uncomfortable than eating a dead fly.

As for Chen Cheng, he was not stupid either. He also understood why the elves would mobilize all their resources to welcome him because of his arrival.

He thought that the empire was not the elves' breadwinner.

Moreover, the empire has been gone for so many years. His grandfather and his father have been wandering outside and being hunted. Why have these empire's affiliated races never shown up or sent anyone to help them?

It turns out that all this is due to the existence of an agreement, and the real object of this agreement is not his grandfather and father, but himself.

That is why they worship themselves as they worship their ancestors.

Although he felt a little uncomfortable knowing this inside story, he figured it out after thinking about it. He is not the gold and jewelry that everyone likes, so why should everyone like him?

When Herlous heard Samlett tell Chen Cheng about the agreement, his expression remained unchanged, but his hands under the table were tightly clenched around the corner of his clothes.

Because anyone who is not stupid can guess the meaning behind their enthusiasm.

Although this revelation seems too utilitarian considering the experiences of Chen Cheng's grandfather and father.

But this matter concerned the survival of his own tribe after all, so even if Chen Cheng suddenly got angry, or left in anger, or made any other excessive demands, Herlous was already prepared.

However, Chen Cheng did not get angry. Now that he finally knew the truth, his restless heart settled down.

At least he truly knew that the elves were also a group of living creatures, and not the perfect robots as described in the legend.
