Dame Carrie passed through the partition wall of poisonous flower vines and saw a fog in front of her. She knew that this was the effect of Abel's isolation circle. She also knew that it was very impolite to disturb Abel now. You must know that at this time This is the time for professionals to practice.
However, Grand Duke Edwina's order cannot be disobeyed. Countess Carrie placed her hand on the isolation circle. After outputting a little mana, she retracted her hand. If Abel was in the circle, he would know Someone from the outside world is looking for him.
After a while, the fog that isolated the magic circle began to dissipate, and a simple tent was revealed. Abel walked out of the tent wearing a relaxed robe and holding an alchemy bottle in hand.
"Carrie, what's the matter?" Abel's face was full of surprise, and the alchemy bottle in his hand also showed that he was disturbed.
"Abel, come with me. Grand Duke Edwina wants to talk to you through the contact circle." Dame Carrie was also a little embarrassed at this time and said softly.
"Okay, let me clean it up!" Abel said, raising the alchemy bottle in his hand.
Abel, who returned to the tent, couldn't help but be surprised by Grand Duke Edwina's decisiveness. He originally thought it would take a few days for the elves sent by Grand Duke Edwina to find them, and several baronesses would testify. Show his innocence.
But now that Grand Duke Edwina has found him directly through the contact circle, she can directly prove his innocence, of course the so-called innocence.
Thinking of this, Abel easily put away the pretentious alchemy bottle, turned around and left the tent, and went to her tent with Dame Carrie.
"Ah!!" A scream startled Abel and Dame Carrie, and they saw Dame Molly, wearing loose clothes, pointing at Abel and shouting.
"Molly, what's your name!" Several other baronesses also came out of the tent and saw Abel at a glance. They couldn't help but look at Abel and Baroness Carrie suspiciously.
"Don't speak. Grand Duke Edwina is waiting for Bennett to reply!" Dame Carrie looked at the several elf baronesses. She knew what the following baronesses were going to say after getting along for a long time, but at this time she could Don't talk nonsense, the contact circle in her tent is still open.
Hearing that Grand Duke Edwina was waiting for Bennett to reply, all the elven baronesses immediately did not dare to speak anymore. Baroness Molly covered her chest in her loose clothes with her hands and looked at Ya with great vigilance. Bo.
Abel looked at these elven baronesses speechlessly, as if the huge water basin he brought for them today relaxed them a little too much.
Entering Countess Carrie's tent, Abel saw the figure of Grand Duke Edwina in the contact circle. He hurriedly walked forward, bowed and said: "Hello, the distinguished Grand Duke Edwina. !”
"Abel, I'm sorry to bother you so late!" Grand Duke Edwina said with a smile.
"Honorable Grand Duke Edwina, what do you want from me?" Abel asked hurriedly when he saw that Grand Duke Edwina didn't speak directly.
"It's nothing. I just received news recently that an organization will assassinate you, so I specifically asked Carrie to call you over. You must be careful lately!" Grand Duke Edwina said with a smile.
"Thank you, the distinguished Grand Duke Edwina!" Abel bowed to express his thanks.
"You should rest too!" Grand Duke Edwina waved her hand and the contact circle was disconnected.
Abel and Countess Carrie looked at each other. Grand Duke Edwina's words changed too quickly. She just woke him up in the middle of the night and it was over
Unlike Abel, Dame Carrie really doesn't know anything, but Abel knows it well. Now it depends on how Grand Duke Edwina handles this matter.
In the city of Anjost, Grand Duke Francisco, who was as silent as a volcano about to erupt, sat in the Grand Duke's Palace. Sitting beside him was Grand Duke Edwina. The atmosphere between the two Grand Dukes was very tense.
"Edwina, how's the investigation?" Grand Duke Francisco finally made his voice first, which made the atmosphere in the hall relax a lot.
"Francisco, you also know that Adolphus is too troublesome. The reports on the possibility of investigation by my intelligence office have piled up!" Grand Duke Edwina pointed to a man standing in the hall. said the intelligence officer.
"Edwina, I want to know which elves are most likely to do this. This is your city. You just wiped out my intelligence office here, so you can only investigate!" Grand Duke Francisco Said in a low voice.
"Francisco, I tell you, but you must not do anything irrational!" Grand Duke Edwina advised softly.
"Edwina, Adolphus is dead, but I can still sit here and talk to you. I have changed a lot!" Although Grand Duke Francisco looks middle-aged, he is actually an old man among elves. At this time Because of the death of the successor, the years of development of Yobergro City suddenly lost its goal.
"Well, Francisco, on the night that Adolphus died, there were three elves on the island where he was, Adolphus, the butler and another elf whose identity was mysterious, Adolphus. The butler died on the spot, and another elf disappeared. This is something I know. If you want to know the latest news, you have to ask the Intelligence Department!" Grand Duke Edwina first told the most suspicious situation at the scene.
"Tell me, what's the latest news?" Grand Duke Francisco asked without politeness, pointing to the Anjost City intelligence officer standing in the hall.
The intelligence officer of Anyost City first glanced at Grand Duke Edwina, and when he saw her nodding in agreement, he bowed to Grand Duke Francisco and said: "Honorable Grand Duke Francisco, the coachman of the missing elf. We have brought it back. The carriage was rented temporarily and there is not much real information, but after checking the location of the rental, we came to the conclusion that it is the headquarters of the Bloody Hand Guild! "
"I have seen the body of Adolphus. A knife was stabbed in the lower back and went straight into the spine. The poison and the knife wound were both fatal. This is a typical assassin's technique, but Adolphus has the knife I gave him. The passive defense magic item will be activated as long as it is attacked, and ordinary assassins cannot kill him!" Grand Duke Francisco interrupted the intelligence officer and seemed to agree with the assassin organization of the Bloody Hand Guild.
"Honorable Grand Duke Francisco, the Bloody Hand Guild has been captured by our Intelligence Department and the Sheriff together, but there hasn't been much progress. The news we got is that their leader never came back after going out at night!" Intelligence Officer Then he said.
"Tell me about the leader of the Bloody Hand Guild!" Grand Duke Francisco nodded slightly and ordered.
"Yes, Arvid, an elf warrior at the level of a knight, founded the Blood Hand Guild. It is the largest assassin guild in Anyost City. Since crimes are rarely committed in Anyost City, the Sheriff has always acquiesced in his work. exist!"
In fact, not only the city of Anjost, but also most elves and human cities have assassins' guilds. This kind of guild, overtly or covertly, can help the nobles deal with things they don't want to get involved in, and the profession of assassins cannot be completely banned. Rather than letting it live in the dark and unable to be managed, it is better to put it in the open and be monitored.
"Avid has rich combat experience, can use most elven weapons and human weapons, and is good at assassination. His most famous achievement is the assassination of a ninth-level wizard, thus gaining a high reputation in the assassin world! According to Avid De's portrait, the coachman has identified him as the elf who entered Prince Adolphus's villa!" After the intelligence officer finished speaking, he bowed back and stood back to his original position.
"Find him, find his elf, and I will give him a million gold and a title, as long as I find him!" Grand Duke Francisco yelled with a ferocious expression. At this time, he had already very suspected that Arvid was the murderer, or perhaps Said to be one of the murderers.
Grand Duke Edwina said nothing. She did not intervene in the previous inquiry. Based on her understanding of the Blood Hand Guild and Arvid, she would not assassinate Adao even if she gave Arvid ten courages. Prince Firth, Arvid is only interested in gold coins and power, and meeting Prince Adolphus is probably these two things that attract him, and it will definitely not cost Prince Adolphus' life, because it is not worth it. .
Grand Duke Francisco actually knew all the information about Arvid, but he also knew more about how many gold coins from Yobergo City his son Prince Adolphus carried with him. Maybe it was the gold coins that made the old assassin angry. Coveting heart.
