After settling Kamos matter, Chen Heng turned around and looked at Hedosiri.
Whats the situation in the other parts of the palace apart from here? He looked at the two people in front of him and asked.
Its generally stable.
Hedosiri nodded. There are no problems in the various parts of the palace, including the Treasury and Granary. We didnt suffer much damage because we acted very quickly.
As long as you are willing, you can use it at any time, my Lord.
During this process, Knight Orimo played a great role.
Hedosiri heavily emphasized the contributions of Knight Orimo. The other partys identity as a former Palace Knight had indeed played a significant role in this matter.
If not for the appearance of this former Palace Knight, even if they were able to take over these parts of the palace, it would have become much more troublesome.
If it wasnt for Knight Orimo, there might be some unwanted accidents that may occur. If that was really the case, then it would be too troublesome for them to handle.
Therefore, Knight Orimos contribution was significant to ensure things went smoothly.
Standing on the spot, listening to Hedosiris words, Chen Heng nodded and then looked at the Raku beside him.
There wasnt too much chaos in Kaki City.
Facing Chen Hengs gaze, Raku directly stepped forward and reported to Chen Heng, Although there were some problems at the beginning, under the suppression of the guards, it quickly calmed down.
Thats good.
Chen Heng nodded, and a smile appeared on his face. You guys did well.
When we go back, I will give you the reward you deserve. He said calmly.
As soon as he said that, the two people in front of him immediately showed joy. Even Hedosiri was feeling slightly excited in him.
This was because they understood the reward Chen Heng was referring to. It was something that could help them increase their strength, and their strength had already reached the Second Ring. They couldnt even be considered weak in the Second Ring.
They might directly reach the Third Ring level if this baptism was added. As for the Third Ring, this level wasnt considered weak even within the various Churches.
Even within those powerful Churches, they could act as Bishops of a Region and werent fragile existences.
Besides, within the Karo Kingdom, a Third Ring was at the peak level, and no one could match them. If they could really reach this level, it would be a great surprise to them.
Looking at the expressions of Hedosiri, Chen Heng smiled and didnt think much of it.
Helping Hedosiri and Lamu improve their strength was a plan that he had long pondered upon. He just wanted to take this opportunity to implement it.
Hedosiri and Lamu had been following him since the very beginning. They had always been doing their best for him and had never had any problems.
Their abilities were undoubtedly outstanding. Whether it was their abilities or personalities, they were considered the best choice. The only thing they lacked was their own strength.
As Chen Heng continued to advance, their original strength could no longer keep up with Chen Hengs pace. They were slowly falling behind. If this continued, they would not play much of a role soon.
After all, as Chen Heng continued to advance, the enemies he had to face would become stronger and stronger. At that time, if the two people in front of him were still the same, they would not contribute much.
Therefore, helping them increase their strength was also a good thing for Chen Heng.
As for why he had to wait for a while instead of now
Of course, it was because Chen Heng was lacking in divine power.
The consumption of the Twilight Divine Artifact was not fake. It had almost emptied Chen Hengs fortune in an instant.
Under such circumstances, there was not much divine power left that he could use. He needed to wait for a while to recover a wave of his blood.
However, it didnt matter. He believed that Hedosiri and the other wont mind.
Many thoughts flashed through Chen Hengs mind. Then, he turned around and walked to the side, looking at the peaceful Kaki City outside.
Next, its time to clean up the aftermath
This thought flashed through his mind, then he closed his eyes silently.
The night passed quickly. After that night, the chaos in Kaki City quickly recovered.
Kamo gave the order with Kalimus order, mobilizing the guards to go around and maintain order.
Under various actions, the order of the entire Kaki City was restored in the shortest amount of time at least on the surface, it was so.
After that, there was even more surprising news.
The Kings daughter, Karos daughter, Guluo Mary, had been appointed by King Kalimu and could move around freely.
Viscount Acto, who had been brought over from Hadim, had been appointed by the King and transformed into the Prime Minister of the Palace.
There was no doubt that this was a massive earthquake.
Some sharp people had already realized something, so they had been running around in various places during this period, wanting to obtain some reliable information.
Even many people had come directly to Chen Hengs manor, wanting to pay him a visit. However, not many people had really gotten what they wanted. It could even be said that there were very, very few of them.
After that, a lot of shocking news spread. It was said that believers of the Dusk Cult had been caught and executed in public.
It turned out that the King had actually been manipulated by someone. As a result, he had done all sorts of wrong things and killed many noble families.
After regaining his consciousness, the King felt unusually guilty. He even shed tears in front of everyone.
At this moment, the people around him remembered what Kalimu was like in the past. Compared to Kalimus previous behavior, they finally understood.
After this, Kalimu seemed to have returned to his previous behavior. His every move was no different from the past he had completely changed.
This kind of behavior was undoubtedly gratifying.
It was said that the King was able to recover because of the help of Viscount Acto and Princess Guluo Mary.
Because of this, Viscount Acto became the Prime Minister of the palace, and Princess Guluo Mary regained the Kings favor.
The others did not have too many doubts about this.
After all, Guluo Mary was King Kalimus favorite child in the past. Hence, the previous indifference came as a surprise.
However, it was apparent that the power led by Viscount Acto and Princess Guluo Mary would probably occupy the mainstream in the Karo Kingdom. At least for a long time, they would be able to dominate the situation in the Karo Kingdom.
Thinking of this, many people had many different thoughts in mind.
After the event, the Dusk Cult become street rats in the Karo Kingdom.
Of course, their original reputation wasnt that great. Now, it was just that their reputation had become worse, and they had done plenty of nasty things.
The Kings men thoroughly investigated the Karo Kingdom and found many traces of the Dusk Cults activities in the Karo Kingdom. Many of the traces were left behind, which made people shudder.
In a short period, who knew how many noble families who had been involved with the Dusk Cult had been arrested.
Besides, a considerable portion of these noble families had escaped the previous purges.
It seemed that the reason why they had been able to escape Kamos clarity was not because of anything else. It was precisely because they were members of the Dusk Cult and were even believers of the God of Dusk.
Therefore, the Dusk Cult would not persecute them.
When the truth was revealed, everyone was furious.
One by one, people who had once conspired with the Dusk Cult, and were even believers of the Dusk Cult, were captured and put on trial in front of everyone.
At this time, much news came from outside Kaki City.
The Dusk Cult began to move within the Karo Kingdom.
The Dusk Cult killed many noble families outside the kingdom, and many families lost their lives.
For a moment, the entire Karo Kingdom seemed to be in chaos.
They actually hid so well?
In the quiet courtyard, Chen Heng was reading the letter in his hand. Looking at the contents, he couldnt help but feel slightly surprised.
He had already expected the Dusk Cults influence in the Karo Kingdom.
However, as he read the letter in his hand, he felt that he had underestimated the extent of the Dusk Cults infiltration.
The extent of the Karo Kingdoms infiltration was much more severe than he had imagined.
This is a very normal occurrence
In front of him, Guluo Mary was sitting upright. She reached out and poured a glass of fruit wine for Chen Heng. Then, she sighed and said, After all, even my father is under their control, let alone someone else.
The King of a country was supposed to be the person with the highest power and authority.
Even such a person with power and authority was ultimately controlled by the Dusk Cult, let alone someone else.
If the Dusk Cult did not have such a power, it would be a strange thing in Guluo Marys eyes.
It doesnt count. Even so, its still a little too exaggerated
Sitting upright in her seat, Guluo Mary shook her head as if she hadnt expected. The situation was actually so dire. Im sure that when my father was still alive, he wouldnt have known that there were still so many people hiding in the Karo Kingdom, right?
Indeed.
Back then, when Kalimu was still alive, he probably wouldnt have thought of this scene today.
He would not have thought that his country had already been infiltrated to a terrifying degree. Even he, the King, had ended up being controlled by someone.
But that was the truth. It had already happened.
No one could have thought of the result.
In front of Guluo Mary, Chen Heng shook his head and then said, Your Highness, if your father had known the result today, Im afraid that so many things would not have happened.
Not necessarily.
Guluo Mary smiled bitterly and said, Perhaps, if my father had known the truth earlier, the Dusk Cult would have taken action and controlled him earlier?
If that was the case, the result would have been even worse.
Guluo Mary was very clear about her familys strength.
The Karo Kingdom was a kingdom, but it was located in a remote area and wasnt very powerful.
As the royal family of the Karo Kingdom, the Karo family could only mobilize two Second Ring members.
This kind of strength was enough to deal with everything in the Karo Kingdom. However, this kind of strength was nothing against an existence like the Dusk Cult.
This was the difference in combat power, and it was impossible to make up for it. Therefore, against the Dusk Cult, if Kalimu dared to take any action, he would be the first to be dealt with.
At that time, not only would he not be able to change his fate, he might even be eliminated early.
In the end, when the difference in strength reached a certain point, he would be able to easily break the situation.
This was the case between the Karo royal family and the Dusk Cult.
No matter what was said, as long as the Dusk Cult still had the Twilight Divine Artifact in their hands, they would be in an invincible position.
After all, not everyone was Chen Heng. He could forcefully carry the power of the divine artifact forward and defeat the Dusk Cult.
Thinking of this, Guluo Mary could not help but sigh. Then, she looked at Chen Heng in front of her and realized how terrifying the person in front of her was.
The power of the Dusk Cult was something that the Karo royal family could not resist.
And to a certain extent, this Viscount Acto, who had defeated the Dusk Cult and even suppressed the divine artifact, was also the same?
In fact, compared to the Dusk Cult, Viscount Acto was even more difficult to deal with.
After all, although the Dusk Cult was mighty, it could not be seen in the light.
Once its position was exposed, everyone would call for help and try to defeat them. Reinforcement from other churches would also gather and take the Dusk Cult down.
However, Viscount Acto did not have the similar bad reputation as the Dusk Cult this was the difference.
What are you going to do next?
Sitting on the spot and looking at Chen Heng, Guluo Mary deliberated her words, then, she asked, You have control over Kamo now. If you are willing, the entire Karo Kingdom will be under your control
I dont know yet.
In front of Guluo Mary, Chen Heng only shook his head when he heard her words. His expression was still calm as he said, Things have developed to this point. So, I dont have to do anything.
Sometimes, if you rush things too much, it will have a negative effect.
His expression was calm as he said this.
At this moment, Chen Heng had already ruled the Karo Kingdom.
After all, Kamo had already fallen into his hands.
Guluo Mary and the others knew what was going on with Kamo.
To outsiders, Kamo was still the same old Kalimu he was still the same King.
Even though the Kings prestige had been significantly reduced because of what had happened, he could control the entire Karo Kingdom as long as he was still the king.
However, this King was actually controlled by Chen Heng. He would do whatever Chen Heng wanted him to do.
In reality, Chen Heng was the King of this country.
And at this moment, Chen Heng was already the Prime Minister of this country on the surface. In name, he could replace the King and handle all the affairs of this country he had great power.
In reality, Chen Hengs power was also beyond the imagination of ordinary people. To put it bluntly, as long as he wanted, the entire Karo Kingdom would be soothed in an instant, and there wouldnt be many obstacles stopping him.
After all, in front of true power, trivial matters are like a piece of cake.
Therefore, in Guluo Marys view, Chen Heng already had the power to truly live in the Karo Kingdom.
However, he hadnt done anything and hadnt moved for a long time.
The Karo Kingdom is now in my hands. As for the name, there isnt much of a difference between a little earlier and a little later.
Sitting upright on the spot, Chen Heng said quietly. At this moment, he said, Instead of finishing everything now and stirring up a huge storm, its better to take things slowly.
At least, the impact will be smaller.
He said softly and expressed his thoughts.
Let Kamo stay in that position for a while longer.
When the time is right, let him step down from that position. Thats it.
Too many things had happened in the Karo Kingdom in this short period.
At this time, what this country needed the most was nothing else but stability.
Only when this country regained peace and order would it be able to exert its greatest power.
Moreover, Chen Heng still had some plans to carry out in this country. Many of his plans might very well offend some people. After all, ordinary citizens wouldnt care less about his plans, but he has to be cautious over the noble groups and church forces in this world.
After all, behind these forces stood the most powerful group in this world. Therefore, in order to reduce the pressure on him, a suitable target was necessary.
Therefore, Kamo was a very suitable target at this moment.
If they were to enforce some offensive plans, Kamo could be the person fronting it or taking the blame while they benefit from it. Besides, they would not bear a bad reputation for their actions as well.
In this way, the pressure and bad voices would all be directed at the Kamo instead of Chen Heng.
When the pressure reached a certain level, Chen Heng would make a move and take down the King, who had a bad reputation. Then, he could easily step up to take Kamos place, provided his excellent reputation.
Chen Heng did not hide his intentions. He directly informed Guluo Mary.
But erm
Hearing Chen Hengs words, Guluo Marys expression changed. To be honest, with your wisdom, even if you are not a Gods descendant but just an ordinary noble, you will probably reach the peak of power sooner or later
If an ordinary person had Chen Hengs current power, they would probably be unable to endure it and would be ready to directly push everything down and dominate everything.
However, Chen Heng did not. Not only did he not crumble under pressure, but he was also able to do these things from the most rational point of view and make use of everyones value.
This was extremely rare.
He did not look like a young man. From his techniques, he looked like an extremely experienced old man.
Its just a habit I have subconsciously.
Chen Heng sat on the spot and listened to Guluo Marys words. He shook his head silently.
He had to try his best to act from the most advantageous angle no matter what he did.
In the previous simulation, Chen Heng was already used to this.
