Chapter 4121 Traitors of Atlantis
Mercedes quickly remembered what she had forgotten.
The wizard Inbas, a retainer of that family!
However, at this moment, Mercedes had no time to care about this matter. The entire family was in the eye of the storm and could fall into an abyss at any time. How could she have the mind to care about these things?
Originally, the ultimate goal of secretly instructing Inbas to take action was simply to help Leonardo regain his position.
No need for that now; Lord Papillon wishes he could crush Leonardo.
At this moment, Li Guo was furious. Who knew what Li Guo would think if [Levi Titus] really started to madly profess his love for Sheryl after Inbas's spell took effect?
One has two.
With Li Guo's intelligence, it would be easy for him to make the connection... making it even more difficult for the entire family to mediate.
"Father, the only way forward is for us to take the blame for failing to discipline our children properly. Rather than waiting to die, we should apologize to the Emperor. As for Princess Francis and Princess Phyllis, we will agree to whatever their conditions are."
[Babilon] was able to rise to the position of Imperial Chancellor, and even came close to that supreme position when the Sun and Moon Empress was still in power. He must have been an extremely decisive person.
“That’s what I think too. I’ll go to the royal court now.” Lord [Babilon] took a deep breath. “Contact Francis and the Fourth Princess as soon as possible, express our apologies and explain that this matter has nothing to do with me… Also, do everything in our power to bring Leonardo back as soon as possible, before anyone else!”
"I'll go right now!"
……
Lord Papillon quickly boarded the spaceship and headed towards the royal court.
The combined pressure from the Void Bank and the Fourth Princess was as swift as a hurricane, giving no time to react, which was enough to show the extent of their anger.
Humans can't... no, how could a human make such a huge mess?
After hearing Mercedes's account, Lord Babylon was still in a daze... Did Leonardo have the ability to control both Francis and the Fourth Princess at the same time?
Even if Francis and the Fourth Princess conspired to push Leonardo forward, and it was actually a scheme to destroy his family, he would still prefer to believe it!
"Who is plotting against me from behind?"
This situation is terrifying. It involves two of the biggest forces on the scientific side. Although his family is deeply rooted, they may not be able to withstand it.
And then there's Li Guo, who was the victim this time... Li Guo hasn't made a statement yet.
The journey to the royal court felt longer than ever before to Lord Babylon.
He took a deep breath, silently took out his communication bracelet, hesitated for a long time on a certain channel, and finally gritted his teeth and chose to connect.
After a few beeps, the moment the communication connected, Lord [Babilon]'s eyes lit up.
"Oh? Lord Papillon, is there something you need?"
On the screen, the face of the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Court and Heavenly Palace was unreadable.
[Babilon] Qing could only bite the bullet and say, "It's like this, [Emperor Ziwei], there's something I really can only ask you..."
……
"...What, you've successfully cast the spell?"
After issuing a series of urgent orders at home, Mercedes remembered Inbas and immediately had him brought over.
Inbas had now regained his true appearance. He was originally a short, old man with a snug nose and cold eyes—but now Inbas's gaze was no longer cold.
“Yes…” Inbas said with a hint of helplessness, “At that time, the Galactic Fairy had just appeared, and I immediately activated the spell… and it worked. Originally, Levi Titus should have immediately shown his infatuated state when facing the Galactic Fairy, but I didn’t expect this to happen…”
Mercedes couldn't help but rub her temples.
She couldn't blame Inbas, after all, she had personally given the order... Was it because Inbas acted too quickly and cast the spell decisively and swiftly?
“I remember that at the time, [Levi Titus] didn’t seem to be paying any attention to [Galactic Fairy], did he?” Mercedes quickly recalled the scene at the party.
Her super brain is enough to allow her to capture every detail in her memory.
"Does Miss think my spell is fake?" Inbas frowned and said, "Does Miss know that so-called love can be hidden deep inside? My spell only makes people fall in love with another person unconditionally, not lose their minds."
Mercedes frowned.
Inbas pondered, "Under those circumstances, [Levi Titus] appeared calm, but was clearly extremely tense inside, with his emotions fluctuating wildly. In such a situation, love would be suppressed. When he completely relaxed, that love would naturally resurface, and as time went on, it would only deepen and become more and more impossible to detach himself from, until he was completely smitten."
Ugh……
Mercedes couldn't help but sigh inwardly; she suddenly hoped that this retainer was just a fraudulent conman.
However, the curse has already been cast and cannot be undone. It is hoped that, as Inbas said, this false love will not be revealed until later—at least until the head of the family has quelled this terrible incident.
I don't know if my father has met the emperor yet.
Mercedes felt utterly exhausted; all her schemes seemed utterly useless in the face of this situation.
She exhaled a breath of stale air and pondered, "Imbals, do you know any way to control people... I mean, people like Francis and the Fourth Princess?"
Inbas instinctively looked at the young lady of his employer's family with the kind of look one might give someone a genius, but he quickly realized that he had also witnessed the incident himself.
They all remained silent... This ability is terrifying, he really wants it too!
“I’m sorry, young lady.” Inbas sighed. “In my knowledge, I really can’t figure out how this could be done. Neither Francis nor the Fourth Princess lacks anything to protect them, and they must be top-tier treasures in the void… perhaps some kind of super artifact with unique effects.”
Mercedes knew this, so she simply asked about it later.
As for the ultimate artifact, there is one in the family's treasury, but it is used to suppress the clan and does not have this kind of control effect.
How could Leonardo, a member of the same family who was used as a tool, possibly have... She recalled the crystal stick that Leonardo had been waving wildly back then.
Who's behind Leonardo DiCaprio?
"Inbas, can you find Leonardo?" Mercedes suddenly asked.
The crystal Francis used to transfer Leonardo must have been a rare and top-tier treasure in the void; otherwise, it would have been impossible for Leonardo to escape successfully in front of so many powerful figures.
“Sure, but I need something tainted with Leonardo’s aura.” Inbas thought for a moment and said, “Preferably his blood, hair, or something like that.”
"Go and look for him in his room."
……
……
……
……
While waiting, Li Guo did not show any impatience.
Valia was by this time quite used to His Highness's unusual behavior; ever since Lord Levi appeared, His Highness's actions had already...
She dared not think too much about it, after all, she was still being accused of incompetence.
Despite receiving prior warnings that someone was plotting against them, a major disaster almost occurred...
Although she was waiting, Li Guo was not idle. At least she was paying attention to the dynamics of all parties and had already learned about Francis and the Fourth Princess's actions.
She could certainly understand the anger these two felt at this moment... She felt the same way. If she weren't a princess of the empire and had to consider the overall situation of the empire, she would have been even more furious than the two of them.
A secret message arrived that Lord Papillon was already requesting an audience outside the palace.
This is a perfect opportunity to deal with that cunning old fox, [Babilon]. Even if we can't completely defeat him, we should at least make [Babilon] suffer a heavy blow and be severely weakened.
Click.
The sound of the door opening softly came from the inner room.
Li Guo's eyes flickered slightly, and he calmly put away the communication bracelet.
"Why didn't Your Highness send someone to inform me?" Boss Luo came out from the inner room.
"It's nothing." Li Guo shook his head. "I was just thinking about calming down and reflecting on some things. Seeing that you're safe and sound puts my mind at ease... Li Wei, would you like to stay at the [Starry Sky Palace] for the next few days?"
Xiao Baizhi's eyes widened immediately, and she stared fiercely at him.
Li Guo calmly said, "This incident involving Leonardo was caused by me... Similar incidents may occur again. [Starry Sky Palace] is my residence, and no one dares to enter it easily. You will be safer inside."
"Thank you for your concern. With Mr. Venus around, Master is safe!" It was actually Xiao Baizhi who said this: "Your Highness, you should take care of your own affairs first."
Boss Luo glanced at Bai Zhi with some surprise. The little maid had become more proactive, like a little tigress who had finally learned to protect her food... That's good.
“Indeed, Mr. Venus can protect me very well.” Boss Luo then followed up on Bai Zhi’s words, “Your Highness, please attend to your own matters first.”
"Alright then," Li Guo said without pressuring him.
This Mr. Venus's combat power is indeed somewhat excessive.
If Venus wasn't protecting Li Wei right now, and I had encountered her, she would probably either be placed under surveillance or recruited... Offending her was out of the question.
She looked deeply at Li Wei, suppressing the urge to hug him tightly. "I'm leaving now. I'm leaving behind a combat squad from [Jinxiu], they will escort you back... You can stay at the academy if you want. Also, they will be with you during your time in [Marindo]. If you need anything, just tell them."
Boss Luo did not refuse and nodded, "Okay."
Li Guo greedily inhaled the fragrance emanating from the other person, then steeled his heart and said directly, "Valya, let's go."
……
Boss Luo did not linger in the academy. Not long after Li Guo left, he also boarded a private spaceship belonging to the [Jinxiu] unit.
This combat squad is well-equipped and highly trained, capable of handling most combat situations.
The squad leader's name was Jita, a woman with short brown hair. Because of Li Guo's orders, she showed a very respectful attitude, but at the same time, she also acted like she was doing her job.
Boss Luo did not agree to go to the Starry Sky Palace. Little Bai Zhi was overjoyed. She didn't know what she was thinking, but after boarding the spaceship, she kept showing a silly smile.
"Mr. Venus, are you from the Atlantis Empire?" Boss Luo asked abruptly.
“Yes.” Venus nodded, without any concealment. “I am a member of the royal family of Atlantis.”
"Oh?" Boss Luo became a little interested. "But I noticed that Princess Phyllis didn't recognize you at first."
“I have been gone for too long,” Venus said calmly. “Currently, Emperor Neil of Atlantis is my half-brother; he is my elder brother.”
"I see……"
……
……
"Your Highness, are you feeling better?"
On the spaceship, there was a treatment pod exclusively for Princess Phyllis, which was naturally the most advanced in Atlantis... The Fourth Princess's injuries were not minor; her abdomen had even been pierced through.
"How is Allen?" Princess Phyllis asked with concern as she had her maids help her get dressed.
The maid quickly replied, "Because the freezing was timely, Lord Allen's brain is intact and is currently undergoing repair... That person must have shown mercy and did not destroy Lord Allen's cells."
Princess Phyllis naturally knew who the maid was referring to.
She waved her hand to dismiss the maid, then sat alone on the chaise longue in the bedroom, her hand unconsciously stroking the wound on her abdomen that had long since healed and was no longer there.
The pain, however, did not seem to have disappeared.
“Venus la Alva…” Princess Phyllis was stunned and bewildered. “Could it really be him?”
That was a taboo within the Atlantean royal family, a taboo that existed even before she was born... [Venus La Alva] was merely a name that still existed in a few royal secrets.
He should actually have another title.
A traitor recorded in the secrets of the royal family!
Records of Venus la Alva from the public have been completely erased, and even the younger generation of royalty today are unaware of her existence.
Princess Phyllis couldn't help but rub her temples; the complexity of this matter had far exceeded her expectations.
After a moment of contemplation, Princess Phyllis took out the communicator.
This was a dedicated signal channel, which quickly connected to the man at the pinnacle of power in the Atlantis Empire.
Beneath the crown were a pair of majestic eyes, scrutinizing the fourth princess.
"Phyllis, what happened?"
The voice was calm, but the Fourth Princess knew that her declaration of war and the troop movements within her territory had obviously been learned by the person in front of her immediately.
All he wanted was an explanation... whether it was reasonable or unreasonable.
“This may be an opportunity,” Princess Phyllis said calmly. “Father, but before we seize this opportunity, I need to report something to you.”
"what's up."
“You…” Princess Phyllis hesitated for a moment before slowly saying, “Do you still remember the name [Venus La Alva]?”
Who are you talking about?
The dignified face beneath the crown was moved at this moment!
"I'll send you a video." The Fourth Princess understood.
Soon, a record about what happened in Hall 6 of the Royal Academy appeared in the palace of another distant country.
During this time, Emperor Neil and Princess Phyllis's communication was not cut off, and the Fourth Princess could even see the Emperor intently watching the recorded video.
His gaze was cold and deep, filled with doubt and even a hint of deeply hidden anger.
"It's him..." After a long silence, in the empire on the other side of that distant galaxy, the man who held power let out a sigh-like voice, "He's not dead..."
"Father, what should I do?"
"How many people know about this?" Emperor Neil asked thoughtfully.
Princess Phyllis quickly replied, "There were quite a few people present at the time, but they were probably just wondering about the surname [Alva]... After all, the records about this person are from a very distant past."
Emperor Nir remained silent, lost in thought.
But the fourth princess knew that he was watching the recorded footage over and over again.
"That person..." Emperor Neil began again, "that person named [Levi Titus], what is his background?"
Princess Phyllis suddenly recalled that person's face... On her cheek, she could still vaguely feel the touch left by the other person in such an extremely rude manner.
Is this rudeness because you know you can rely on the true identity of [Venus La Alva], and that's why you dare to be so fearless?
The fourth princess was secretly annoyed.
She lowered her head, biting her lip slightly, keeping her tone unchanged. "It's said that he's a divine son from a minor god's family on the [magic side], and his current identity is Princess Anle's officially announced boyfriend... But judging from the current situation, this identity is most likely not true."
"Phyllis, go see him," Emperor Neil said in a low voice, "and see your uncle."
"Yes…"
