Chapter 1099: Everyone wants toâ change â
The Prime Minister of Britain, as well as the governments of the rest of Europeâs monarchical countries, as well as those behind-the-scenes countries that were coveting genetic technology, would all have their eyes on Benjaminâs 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 âUnion, 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 countryâs investment in the Outlandersâ 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 wasnât 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.
âŠ
âYouâre going out?â The Butler was being massaged by a maidservant in his bedroom as he spoke. He did not seem to be surprised by old Rossâs intention to go out.
Old Ross nodded. After a moment of hesitation, he said,ââThe outside world is in chaos. The entire Europe has lost to the genetic problem. The people are angry. If I donât come out to clean up the situation, Iâm afraid all of our people will be overthrown. We need a backbone at this time. As you can see, the Duke doesnât seem to care about anything.â
âDonât you know his personality?â The Butler rolled his eyes at Ross.
Old Ross seemed to be pleading for mercy.âI know that nothing in this world can affect the Duke. However, we are not as open-minded as he is. We canât just ignore the hundred-year foundation outside.â
The Butler muttered to himself for a long time, staring at old Ross and asking him for no reason,ââYou donât trust the Duke? Since he doesnât want your family to go out, he definitely doesnât want anything to happen to you. Donât worry about whatâs happening outside, youâll definitely be killed by that kid if you go out!â
...
Old Ross didnât dare to speak. It was obvious that he had some reservations about what he was going to say next.
âIf you have something to say, just say it.â The Butler said.
Old Ross was silent for a while, and then said,ââThe Duke didnât kill that damned person. I donât know whatâs the point of keeping him alive. Since heâs not willing to join us, heâll only become a disaster for us. If we had gotten rid of him back then, we wouldnât be where we are now.â
âAre you questioning the Dukeâs decision?â
âNo, I donât dare to. I just feel that Xu Cheng is a very dangerous person, so we shouldnât let him go. As long as we have a little understanding of his past, we can clearly see that as long as we donât completely kill him and let him run away, when he stands up again, he will always be stronger than before.â
âWhat the Duke Wants is for him to be strong.â âAlright, since you want to go out, Iâll let you out. But you know the rules,â the Butler said word by word.
âUnderstood,â Ross quickly thanked him.
The Butler got up and brought him to the basement of the castle. Immediately, the castleâs servants covered old Rossâs head and took him onto a boat, which floated out along the castleâs 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 didnât say anything, pretending that he didnât 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 Dukeâs 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 Dukeâs 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 anyoneâs slave!
Thatâs 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 manâs 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 wouldnât be infatuated with greed?
When old Rossâs head was covered and the boat drifted away, the Butler stood on a window in the distant Castle and watched him leave.
âItâs 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 Chengâs body, he will change everything, and he wonât have to be afraid of hiding here anymore. Thereâs nothing in the world that heâs afraid of anymore.â
The Butler watched as the small boat disappeared into the black mist. He muttered,ââEveryone wants to change, and Iâm no exception. He can live for 200 years, but I can only live for 70 or 80 years. Since youâre going to die anyway, why donât you struggle a little?â
As he spoke, the Butler smiled and thought to himself,âOld Ross, I hope youâre a man of courage! Donât 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 Dukeâs words, her being alive would only disturb your heart.
However, the Duke did not know that the death of the Butlerâs wife had caused him to Harbor a grudge against the Duke!
