In the end, no one ran away.
After all, if you run away, it will be hard to say what will happen next.
At least from the perspective of the half-elves, the people of the Azure Sword fled because they were afraid of being punished for killing someone. As for why they killed someone, there would of course be many excuses that could be fabricated, especially when the murderer had already escaped.
As for Sidlifa's proposal, it was naturally ignored by everyone. In the end, Medea successfully controlled the rioting crowd by shooting a large number of mind lines.
Afterwards, the security team members who finally breathed a sigh of relief invited the members of the Cang Qing Sword to the royal court for tea.
By the way, let's talk about the investigation into this murder case.
Under normal circumstances, this would probably be nothing more than a criminal incident. However, the person listed as the murderer suspect was a human mercenary who came from the outside world to deliver a letter, representing the face of the Bull Mercenary Group. As a result, this matter escalated from a criminal case to a political incident.
After all, even in the royal city of Elora, the political differences between Her Majesty the Queen and Elder Dilar have become a semi-public "secret."
About 6 hours later, everyone arrived at the half-elf capital, Elora.
Although it was a royal city, it looked about the same size as the villages and towns outside. It was surrounded by simple wooden walls, which made the girls dumbfounded.
Ah, that’s it
As the security team led everyone into the city, everyone finally confirmed that this was indeed a slightly larger village. Judging from the flow of people on the streets and the total area, there were probably only about 3,000 people living there at most.
However, there are indeed many extraordinary people here. A rough count shows that on average, two out of ten passers-by have spirituality, which is 20%. If it were in a human town outside, this number would probably be only a few thousandths.
However, this led to another bad thing. That is, although most of the half-elves encountered by everyone so far were ordinary people with guns, judging from the high popularity of extraordinary powers, these half-elves were probably not completely ignorant of extraordinary powers.
Therefore, the security guards might have noticed that Medea had previously controlled the people around her through the mind thread.
As the group continued to walk towards the palace, more and more half-elves gathered on both sides of the road to watch. However, the way they looked at the group was no longer as curious as the villagers of the last village looked at monkeys. Instead, their eyes were mixed with some complex and inexplicable disgust, suspicion and aversion.
Or to put it more simply, discrimination.
When they arrived at the steps of the palace, the security team did not lead everyone directly into the palace. Instead, they turned a corner and came to the underground prison in the royal city of Elora.
"Please stay inside until the results of the investigation come out." The half-elves said expressionlessly.
The reason why they dared to say this, of course, was that they had a basis to rely on—the warden of the prison was a demigod of the elves.
"Law-level transcendent?" The demigod was an old man with a white beard, wearing a helmet made of a deer skull. He looked at the people who were brought in and asked, "Are they all human?"
"They claim to be messengers of the Bull Mercenary Group and are currently involved in a murder case, so they can only be detained here temporarily." The security team members replied respectfully.
