"What's the specific information?"
Looking at Lu Xiu in front of him, Adil composed himself and asked.
"About a month ago, in the palace, His Majesty Kurid suddenly fell ill. Crimson scales grew all over his body, and he passed away a few days later."
Standing in front of Adil, Lu Xiu's expression was solemn, "According to the palace, His Majesty died of illness because of a long period of fatigue …"
"But according to the information that our people sent back, His Majesty Kurid became a dried corpse when he died, and his appearance was almost exactly the same as the previous royal descendant who died."
"Finally made a move …" Standing in the same place, Adil muttered to himself, as if he had thought of something.
As for the Kalad royal family's claim that Kurid died of illness because of overworking, Adil didn't believe a single word of it.
If the other party was an ordinary person, it would be fine, but who was the one who died this time? It was the king of Kalad.
As the descendant of the Crimson King, the king of the Kalad Empire, King Kurid was extremely powerful. With his level 3 strength, even in the Mason region, he could almost run amok.
For such an existence, let alone dying of illness, even if he went into a sea of fire, or even ate poison as if it was food, he probably wouldn't be affected at all.
Dying of illness was just an excuse used to fool others.
The real reason for King Kurid's death was most likely related to the Crimson King.
Turning into a dried corpse before death was one of the conditions that would occur after one's bloodline was extracted. Connecting this to what Kaidoze had said earlier, this King Kurid had most likely died after his bloodline was extracted by the Crimson King.
"And a month ago … it just happened to be the time when Kaidoze and I left for overseas …"
"If it's a coincidence, then it's too much of a coincidence …"
Standing in the same place, thinking about the entire matter, Adil couldn't help but sigh.
No one was a fool.
This Crimson King might have already noticed Adil's existence, and even Kaidoze's plan might have been predicted by this Crimson King. That was why he took advantage of the fact that Adil and Kaidoze were busy to speed up his recovery.
After withdrawing the bloodline of King Kurid, the speed of the Crimson King's recovery would definitely increase greatly. If this continued, it would probably become more and more difficult to deal with.
Kaidoz was probably aware of this as well, which was why he immediately planned to encircle the Crimson King after dealing with Klaus.
His goal was to prevent the Crimson King from recovering and finish him off before he could recover.
"Kaidoze, Crimson King … none of them are easy to deal with …"
Standing there, Adil could not help but rub his head, feeling a headache coming on.
In front of him, Lu Xiu was still reporting, faithfully carrying out his duties.
In the end, he looked at Adil, who was gradually lost in thought, and said tentatively, "Your Royal Highness, His Majesty Kurid passed away, so the position of King Calad is vacant. Your Royal Highness, you …"
His meaning was very clear. He was just short of shouting the last sentence, asking Adil to compete.
This was also very clear.
Back then, Adil was just a prince who was not valued and was sent to Elka to be a territory. His status was low, and he was not considered a top figure in the entire Calad Empire.
As Elka gradually developed and formed an alliance with the Cardoze Empire, Adil's status gradually rose, and no one dared to ignore him.
This was already very good. At least back then, when Lu Xiu followed Adil to Elka, he never dreamed that Adil would be able to reach this stage.
But all of this, compared to the ruler of the entire Calad Empire, undoubtedly paled in comparison.
In Lu Xiu's eyes, the Adil in front of him was undoubtedly qualified to be the king of the Calad Empire.
In terms of strength, Elka had developed rapidly in the past few years, especially after the development of knights. There were many powerful knights emerging in the entire territory. Perhaps compared to the entire Calad Empire, their strength was still slightly inferior, but in the Calad Royal Family, they were definitely the strongest.
In terms of speaking power, Elka was located in a closed area. Although they did not have much contact with the nobles in the country, in recent years, they had conquered the southern countries and formed an alliance with the Desert Empire Cardoze.
The most important thing was that Lu Xiu knew how powerful Adil's gentle appearance was.
With the bloodline of the Crimson Son, even if he did not have anything else, just this identity alone was enough to qualify him to be the king. Moreover, in Lu Xiu's eyes, Adil's own strength was definitely not inferior to King Kurid's.
With so many advantages, Lu Xiu could not find a reason why Adil could not become the king.
Even though King Kurid had already appointed a successor, a young prince named Karl, in front of Adil, he had to step aside. It was impossible for him to be compared to Adil.
After all, in this world, strength was still the most important thing.
"You …"
Looking at Lu Xiu in front of him and sensing his thoughts, Adil subconsciously wanted to shake his head, but in the end, he stopped and fell into a new thought.
Fighting for the throne of the Karad Empire was not very attractive to Adil.
His greatest enemies in this world were the many ancient kings. As long as he became the final winner, wouldn't the throne of a mere empire be easily obtained?
However, according to the previous agreement with Cardoze, he was originally going to the capital. Since that was the case, it would not be bad to find a suitable excuse for himself.
Thinking of this, he raised his head slightly and looked at Lu Xiu in front of him. "What do you think we should do?"
Immediately, Lu Xiu became excited.
In the palace, the two began to chat.
It was obvious that Lu Xiu had secretly thought about how to help Adil seize the throne more than once.
At this moment, when Lu Xiu said it in front of Adil, every detail was thought through. Even Adil, who was listening, could not help but be surprised. The way he looked at Lu Xiu began to become more and more strange.
They chatted until late at night. When it was already very late, Lu Xiu left Adil's palace excitedly. From the looks of it, he was most likely going to make preparations.
In the palace, looking at Lu Xiu's figure as he left excitedly, Adil shook his head, feeling a little speechless.
"A.I. Chip, has the correction of the Coldola's Secret Manual been completed?"
Since he had nothing to do, he looked at his A.I. Chip and asked.
[Coldola's Secret Manual has been corrected … Current recovery rate: 100% …] The A.I. Chip's mechanical voice sounded in his mind.
"Has the correction been completed?" Hearing the A.I. Chip's voice in his mind, Adil nodded, expressing his approval of the A.I. Chip's progress.
However, even though the A.I. Chip had corrected this secret manual once, Adil was still a little worried about this thing.
After all, the A.I. Chip was not omnipotent. It was limited by Adil's level and knowledge, and in some areas that even Adil could not understand, the A.I. Chip might not be able to detect any errors.
This was especially true for the part in the Coldola's Secret Manual regarding advancing to rank 4 and the birth of the origin source.
Even Adil himself was at a loss regarding this part of the manual, so how could he possibly correct the errors in it?
The A.I. Chip could only correct those errors that could be discovered through deduction and understanding. However, for those that were hidden too deeply, or those that even Adil could not understand, the A.I. Chip was naturally unable to correct them.
Of course, Adil was very confident in the A.I. Chip's functions. Even if there were some errors, there would not be too many.
Even so, it was still very dangerous.
For something as high-level as the bloodline manual, even a slight deviation in understanding it could lead to death, not to mention the errors in the contents.
Unless Adil was tired of living, he would definitely not be so stubborn as to try something like this.
Of course, with regards to this secret manual, his main body would naturally not try it, but the same could not be said for his clone.
Possessing the ability to traverse, Adil had a lot of advantages over others, and that was that he could continuously try and make mistakes.
Finding a world, using the ability to create an independent clone, and then using the clone to conduct experiments, that would be enough.
In this case, even if he failed, he would at most lose some world energy, and it would not be to the point where his life would be in danger.
"Similar experiments, if I have the chance after leaving this world, I can try it out."
"However, for now, I should first settle the things on my hands …"
