"Light?" Looking at the ashes on the bed, Leo's face appeared suspicious, and there were some clues in the heart that the female corpse didn't quite understand.
However, when Frank Fusson heard the clues given by the female corpse and saw the scene where the female corpse finally turned to ashes, she seemed to think of something, and her face immediately became somber.
"Director Fussen, did you find something?" At this time, Leo also realized that Frank Fussen's expression was a bit wrong, and asked.
Frank Fussen asked in confirmation: "You mentioned earlier that when the murderer attacked Pasa Kahran, he used a power that was hidden in the dark and resembled a doppelganger, right?"
"Yes." Leo nodded.
"I think I know who killed Pasa Kagulin and was about to assassinate General Hansen." Frank Fawson frowned and said, "I think I might be in trouble this time."
Leo wasn’t quite sure why Frank Fusson became so nervous, so he asked, "Can you be more specific?"
Frank Fawson was silent for a moment, and said, "Mr. Leo, have you heard of the ancient tribe of Mosang?"
"Ancient tribe?" Leo thought for a moment, and said, "Do you mean the origin tribe that has disappeared?"
"Yes, that's it." Frank Fussen nodded, then hesitated, and said: "In fact, the disappearance of the ancient race was done by General Hoover Hansen."
With that said, he told Leo the story after a complete story.
The Mosang mainland tribe, known as the ancient tribe, is actually the academic name of the origin tribe. From its name, it is enough to understand that this tribe is based on the Mosang mainland tribe, but in fact it is almost the same, except A few tribes think they have other origins, and the vast majority of other tribes think that their tribes originate from the ancient tribes.
For this reason, the ancient tribes have a very special status among the tribes of the Mosang continent, and the ancient tribes often use their special status and prestige to intervene in some things of other tribes, and even directly affect the chieftains of other tribes.
Therefore, the relationship between the ancient tribes and the tribes of the Mosang continent is not very harmonious, but only because of the special status of the ancient tribes, or some other unknown reasons, each tribe can only suppress the dissatisfaction with the ancient tribes.
At that time, the colonies of various countries on the Mozambican continent began to appear turbulent, and various types of uprisings emerged endlessly. In addition to the new Mosang uprisings composed of the descendants of criminals, serfs and debtors in various countries, nationalist thoughts that broke out in various tribes generated The tribe's nation-building uprising was the strongest of the various uprisings at that time.
It’s just that the tribes have never had a national concept, the internal structure is scattered, there is no cohesion, and each other is a bit of a feud, so they can only manage each other, so that although the momentum of the tribal uprising is huge, there have never been successful examples, usually just the uprising. It was not long before the colonial army annihilated it.
The tribes felt that the situation would become worse, so they decided to try to bring the tribes together, and the ancient tribes naturally became the best objects they used to condense the tribes.
As a result, various tribes elected the ancient tribes as leaders, and gathered around the ancient tribes, followed the rules and forms formulated by the ancient tribes, and organized internal affairs, which in a short period of time increased the power of the tribes several times. The battle went from passive to aggressive, to active attack, and the colony of the Kingdom of Marais in Mosang was completely lost at this time.
However, after seizing a large number of colonies, the ancient people who should continue to expand their victories stopped chasing at this time and completely resolved all the colonies. Instead, they chose to stop attacking and digest the victories.
The reason why the tribe made such a wrong strategic decision is not only because the tribes are extremely coveted by the expanding territory, hoping to be able to immediately split the loot in hand to supplement the war consumption, and at the same time, the ancient tribes that have been regarded as spiritual symbols have also begun Not willing to be regarded as a mascot to congregate tribes, but want to seize higher rights, so that after the country is built, they can obtain the same detached status of the royal family in other countries.
During this period, the ancient people used various means to seize the rights of various tribes in this union, embezzle the tribal results, expand their influence, and also deliberately attracted the young and powerful in other tribes to control the current tribes. The old people launched a shock.
If there are no other accidents, the ancient people may really be able to take back the rights of all tribes. It is unprecedented to agree to all the tribes on the Mosang continent to drive the colonists out of the Mosang continent and build a Mosang empire that has never been seen before. The highest authority in the entire Mozambican continent.
It is a pity that the ancient tribes were too hasty, and the methods of doing things were directly cruel, so that various tribes were extremely dissatisfied with the ancient tribes, and some tribes that were hostile to the ancient tribes also began to consider dealing with the ancient tribes.
It’s just that because they promoted the identity of the ancient people too much for tribal cohesion in the early days, so that they now want to deal with the ancient people, I am afraid that they can’t do it because of the identity they advertise, so they can only look for external forces to solve it. This trouble.
At that time, the colonial army became the best external force, so several tribes that had hatred against the ancient tribes jointly sent to try to practice the colonial army, expressing the idea of cooperation to eliminate the ancient tribes.
The colonial coalition at the time initially thought this was a trap for the tribe, but they soon investigated it clearly. The intention of other tribes was unclear, but it was found that the tribes that sent the messengers really wanted to solve the ancient tribes.
The colonial army felt that this was an opportunity, because if the ancient tribes were solved, then even if the tribes occupied a lot of sites, the interior would become a piece of sand. For the colonial army, the non-cohesive tribes are very good to deal with. Time can slowly resolve these tribes.
As a result, the two hit it off, and the colonial army formed a joint elite team. Under the guidance of tribal internal intelligence, a deadly trap was set up against the ancient tribes, and the leader of this team was Hoover Mosang.
The ancient people have the custom of offering sacrifices to ancestors. At a fixed time each year, they will return to their ancestors to sacrifice their ancestors. This time, they are no exception. The protection work was handed over to some other tribes it believed to be loyal.
What happened in the year of the ancestor sacrifice, except for the elite squad that executed the characters at that time, no one knew, the only thing that was known was the sudden eruption of the ancestor’s volcano, which engulfed all the ancient people on the mountain, the ancient people overnight Between the genocide, and the team performing the task only a few people returned to the barracks alive, Hoover Hansen is one of them.
Although the colonial army questioned what happened on the holy mountain of ancient ancestors, the survivors such as Hoover Hansen said nothing.
Because the ancient tribe died from the volcanic eruption, it was originally intended to use the colonial army to slaughter the ancient tribe as an excuse to condense the tribes, and those tribes who retaliated against the colonial army have planned to fail, and because the tribe alliance that the ancient tribe condensed is also like the colonial army. As expected, there was a civil unrest soon. The tribes began to fight each other because of the previous loot distribution and site ownership. From small tribes to large tribes, they were all involved. The tribe alliance was almost useless.
This was originally expected by the colonial army. As long as they waited at the right time and attacked with all their strength, they could solve this tribe uprising that almost caused the colonial army to perish completely.
However, before they could start, another force had found the time. As a result, the ultimate beneficiaries of the ancient genocide were neither tribal nor colonial forces, but the new Mosang people who were underestimated by both parties.
The new Mosang people, who had always been in the saving force, suddenly emerged. They first defeated the main force of the colonial coalition at the time with thunder. Following the uprisings of several major colonial cities, they all broke away from the control of various countries. Among them, there were some very important supply port cities.
After withstanding several counterattacks by the colonial army and the navy of other kingdoms and defeating the armies of various countries, war-fighting emotions have developed within the countries. Eventually, as the French Empire began to abandon the colonies, all countries also gave up the colonies, while the English kingdom Is the last country to abandon the colony.
After the settlement of the colonial army, the civil unrest in the tribe still did not subside. To deal with the tribe, the New Mosang people did not completely suppress it. He chose to win over some tribes who had good relations with them, and attacked the tribes who hated the colonists. They drove those tribes back into the wasteland completely.
In the end, the New Mozambicans were the only one in the colony, and several of their joint troops each occupied a place to form a country, forming the United States, California, and other major countries on the current Mozambican continent. The tribes gathered together to form the current Panil Kingdom.
"I can understand the fact that Hoover Hansen and the ancient race are enemies. After all, the ancient genocide is definitely related to the Hoover Hansen team." Leo heard this and couldn't help but wonder: "However, you are How do you know that the people who want to assassinate Hoover Hansen are the people of the ancient tribe? There are countless tribes who died under Hoover Hansen."
"Because of light and shadow." Frank Fussen explained carefully.
It turns out that there are some very special people in the ancient clan. These people are believed to have the purest blood of their ancestors. According to legend, the ancient ancestors are great masters of light and darkness. Even the gods of the Velon world can't compete with them. , So every tribe who is awakened to the blood of their ancestors is naturally able to master part of the power of light and darkness.
At that time, the reason why the ancient tribes could gain a foothold in the tribal alliance and gradually control the rights within the tribal alliance forced all tribes to collude with the colonial army, relying not only on the identity of their tribal origin, but also on their ethnic group Among those who are awakened to the blood of their ancestors, the power of these people, even the shaman of all tribes, must be in awe of three points.
According to Frank Fussen’s explanation, Leo knew that this was not the first time Hoover Hansen had been assassinated by an ancient ancestor. As early as a few years ago, Hoover Hansen had suffered an assassination. The murderer almost succeeded. Fortunately, the guards of Hoover Hansen tried hard to protect, and the special bureau's timely support did not make the assassination failed.
At that time, Frank Fussen was the fastest person to feel the support on the spot. At that time, he saw how the assassin used the light to create the illusion and how to use the shadow to move quickly. Fortunately, he had the ability to distinguish the enemy without using his eyes. In time to injure the ancient tribe, take Hoover Hansen down.
Although the light that burned the female corpse to ashes just now was different from the light he had seen from the ancient tribes, the two gave him the same feeling.
"What are you going to do now?" Leo felt the nervousness of Frank Füssen, which could make such a powerful person feel nervous. It can be seen that the strength of the ancient people left a deep impression on him.
"Now that the ancient people have appeared, the assassinations have become different. No matter whether General Hansen agrees to cancel the participation in the museum to carry out the ceremony, I must send some people to strengthen his guard, and I must stay by his side just in case What happened is unexpected." Frank Fussen said his decision, and then said to Leo seriously. "Mr. Leo, I don't know if you still regard this as an unimportant thing, But I still hope that you will take this matter seriously, because if General Hansen really died under the assassination of the ancient tribes under the general public, then the Mozambican continent may be renewed, and the kingdom’s peace will no longer exist. ~EbookFREE.me~ Well, I will think about it." Leo did not give Frank Fussen an affirmative answer, but then it seemed to catch a loophole in the painting, suddenly asked: "You just seemed to say if The assassination of Hoover Hansen in large numbers will cause a lot of trouble, so it means that as long as it is not in the general public, Hoover Hansen's life and death will not have such a big impact, right?"
"I didn't say that, it's your own understanding." Frank Fawson saw Leo distorted his meaning, glared at Leo angrily, and then turned around and walked out of the room, quickly went downstairs and boarded On the carriage waiting there, he gave a command to the driver, and drove towards the location of the naval headquarters of Dulin.
Obviously, the appearance of the ancient assassins made Frank Fussen more nervous about the case. The first time I felt that the naval headquarters and the protection of Hoover Hansen became the things he needed to do now.
Leo, who stayed at the scene of the murder, did not leave immediately, but walked to the attic on the third floor again, stood by the window and carefully looked at the surrounding traces, and a dignified expression appeared on his face.
In fact, he still didn't tell Frank Fussen that he found out that he knew what weapon the assassin would use to assassinate Hoover Hansen.
