"Who did it?" This question was not only asked by the fifth-level Templar of Armand, but also by the fifth-level Templar of Anselm who had just returned.
Lord Kagel, who was sitting in the family castle, was also asking in his heart at this time, and in his hand was a stack of information that had just been delivered.
Duke Arthur, whom Lord Cagle suspects, has just finished the reception. There are nearly sixty fifth-level powerhouses present at the meeting. The scale of this reception alone is the highest level in the past few decades.
How could Duke Arthur have time to appear at the reception at the same time, and then went to kill the fifth-level Templar Knight Job, he was the host of the reception, and he couldn't leave at all.
Lord Cagle felt a little fortunate. Fortunately, he did not reach an agreement with Job's fifth-level Templar. Duke Arthur's influence is so great, and he might cause great trouble if he is an enemy.
"Steward!" Lord Cagle called to the door.
"Master, please order!" The butler walked in quickly and bowed.
"Prepare a congratulatory gift for the Luce family!" Lord Kagel said in a deep voice.
"Master, what is the standard congratulatory gift?" The butler asked hesitantly.
As the steward of the McCarthy family, he is very clear about the relationship between the family and other families, but this Luce family has never dealt with it before, so he can only ask.
"According to the standards of the top nobles!" Lord Kagel thought for a while and said, and then felt that he was not enough to express his heart, and added: "Double copies!"
The butler showed an expression of disbelief, but he quickly hid it.
With the strength of the McCarthy family, how could they send a gift exceeding the standard to a newly promoted family? There is only one reason, that is, the Luce family can threaten the McCarthy family.
"Yes, master, I'll do it right away!" The butler bowed and exited.
Lord Cagle looked at the withdrawn steward, thinking about something in his heart, no matter whether it was done by Duke Arthur himself or not, it was definitely related to Duke Arthur, that's for sure.
He knew that in order to kill Duke Arthur, Job's fifth-level Templar even made the Cotton family a vassal of the McCarthy family.
The only reason for being able to make such a sacrifice is that Job's fifth-level Templars were worried about Duke Arthur's revenge, to the point of fear or even fear.
Lord Kagel thought of what happened in Jesun Castle, and couldn't help but feel a creepy feeling.
In a castle he was in, a fifth-level templar and fifteen fourth-level sky knights were killed, and he did not have any perception until the end of the whole process.
You must know that whether it is a fourth-level Sky Knight or a fifth-level Templar Knight, in the room full of isolation patterns, just a random blow can destroy the isolation patterns and leak the fighting breath.
But fifteen fourth-level sky knights and one fifth-level Templar were killed as if they hadn't resisted. That person still had time to clean up the scene and leave calmly.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Lord Kagel would not have believed it.
This is also the reason why he asked the butler to send two gifts of the top aristocratic level, which represented that the McCarthy family took the initiative to extend an olive branch to Duke Arthur.
Lord Cagle has only one idea, don't conflict with Duke Arthur, even if you can't be friends, you can't be enemies.
Because he was in Jesson Castle at the time, no matter whether it was Duke Arthur who went to attack or not, there is a high probability that the other party knew that he was in contact with Job's fifth-level Templars, so he must show his attitude and performance. The attitude of the McCarthy family.
The Annabelle Templar returned to her alone courtyard in the Temple of War, and immediately the Priestess delivered a message.
She opened the information and glanced at it, a smile appeared on her face.
"Interesting, to use so many people at the reception as alibi!" Annabelle Templar said softly, dropping the information.
"There is news from the chamber that an investigation will be launched against Duke Arthur!" Priestess reported.
"Tell the Chamber that if there is no actual evidence, whoever dares to disturb Duke Arthur is my enemy!" Annabella said with a disdainful wave of the Templar.
After seeing the information, the Annabelle Templar knew that the death of Job's fifth-level Templar must be the work of Duke Arthur.
The cooking time of that big dish of roasted camels coincides with the time when Job’s fifth-level Templar was killed. That is to say, Duke Arthur took advantage of the break in the reception to jump to the planet for a perfect attack and then returned to the reception. .
But so what
Duke Arthur can make such delicious food, so what if he killed a few fifth-level Templars who killed themselves
It’s not Duke Arthur who provoked them. The August fifth-level Templar in front and Job’s fifth-level Templar in the back are all murderers who participated in the attack on Duke Arthur. It is not normal for Duke Arthur to retaliate.
"In addition, let the Chamber of Commerce come up with the results of the August Templar and Job Templars attacking Duke Arthur as soon as possible, and convey my request to the Chamber of Commerce and Lord Gould!" Annabelle Templar said lightly.
Today, in front of so many fifth-level Templar knights, fifth-level priests of the five major temples, and two bishops, she said that she wanted to cover Duke Arthur, but she was slapped in the face by the meeting hall in a short time.
Since Annabelle Templar was a reasonable person, she was able to stand up even when there was no reason. Now that reason is on her side, of course she has to give full play to it.
She took out a bottle of red wine from the interspatial ring, poured it casually, and sipped it. When she felt the ultimate enjoyment of the red wine in her mouth, she became more determined.
No one can interfere with Annabelle Templar's enjoyment of delicious food!
On the second day of the reception, two things became the biggest news in the aristocratic circle.
Job's fifth-level Templar disappeared in his Jesun Castle, and has been killed with a high probability.
This news was also accompanied by gossip from Jesson Castle, when the Lord Kaggle of the McCarthy family was secretly visiting Jesson Castle.
Therefore, many nobles guessed that Lord Cagle was involved in the killing of Job's fifth-level Templar. Otherwise, there would be such a coincidence. was killed at that time.
Without Lord Cagle's leak, the assassin would not have found Job's fifth-level Templar so easily.
Because there are big nobles and top nobles, as well as fifth-level Templars and lords among these speculations, this kind of speculation is extremely popular in the noble circle.
The nobles also have the fire of gossip, and they also hope that there will be grievances between the top nobles and the big nobles who are not restrained by the top nobles. This kind of story makes the nobles even more excited.
As for who killed Job's fifth-level Templar, most of the nobles still believed that it was related to Duke Arthur.
The fifth-level Templar of August and the fifth-level Templar of Job attacked Duke Arthur in the front, and the two fifth-level Templars in the back were killed one after another. This is nothing to think about.
Another news is about the reception held by Duke Arthur in the castle of Gamixing. Because the guests of this reception are too heavyweight, there is not much accurate information in advance. After the reception, some nobles who participated in the reception gave It was only after the accurate information was released that this cocktail party that could enter the history of the great world of the gods was displayed in front of the eyes of the nobles.
Fifty-three fifth-level Templars, of which four fifth-level Templars went to the main body, five fifth-level priests belonged to the five major temples, Bishop McKinley of the Temple of War, Bishop Bolin of the Temple of the Earth, anyone here Any one of them can shake the world of the gods and attend a reception at the same time. This is a grand event for the world of the gods.
Later, more details came out. The dishes in the reception were claimed to be the best in the world. This number one was not claimed by Duke Arthur, but proposed by the guests present.
Looking at the suffocating guest list, no one dares to deny the points raised by the guests.
Although the nobles of those dishes were not blessed to enjoy them, the top-notch red wine in the divine world was famous in the divine world, because it was the delicacy that was most likely to be tasted by Duke Arthur.
Nobles would not expect a duke to cook food himself, so it doesn't matter that Duke Arthur cooks the best food in the world, and the nobility doesn't have much to do with it.
Only the red wine produced by Duke Arthur is the most likely to come into contact with the nobles.
Just as every nobleman in the divine world was discussing two things enthusiastically, Chairman Brewer was sitting in his spacious office in the chamber.
Chairman Brewer is an earl, because he has and maintains a good relationship with many top nobles, and he does not belong to any top nobles, so he was mentioned to the important position of chairman of the chamber .
This position is a high administrative position in the great world of God, and only the Supreme Council can limit the chamber, and the Supreme Council rarely manages affairs, and only major events will convene the Supreme Council.
Therefore, the Chamber of Commerce is the highest administrative organ of the Great World of God, and Chairman Brewer holds secular power.
Of course, this power is still very limited, the top nobles are not under his jurisdiction, he can only submit the top nobles who violate the law to the higher supreme council.
Today, he sits in his office with a decision ready to be signed by him.
Chairman Brewer was very angry. He did not propose to investigate Duke Arthur on the premise that he knew who the murderer was and lacked evidence.
But the fifth-level Templar Job was killed again, which made Chairman Brewer unable to tolerate it any longer.
This is a contempt for the administrative system of the Great World of God, a contempt for the chamber, and a contempt for the powerful Chairman Brewer.
Duke Arthur has just entered the ranks of the great nobles, and he did such crazy things, killing the fifth-level Templar Knights and destroying the great noble families. These behaviors are intolerable.
As for the assassination ability of Duke Arthur, at the level of Chairman Brewer, Chairman Brewer has no fear of assassination at all, because any assassination of Chairman Brewer will cause the reaction of the temple, and the temple will start investigation.
With the means of the temple, no matter who takes action against Chairman Brewer, he cannot escape.
The power of the gods is unimaginable to ordinary people, and the investigation of the temple can borrow the power of the gods.
And Arthur's dukedom is nothing in the eyes of Chairman Brewer. In order to maintain his power, Chairman Brewer decided to investigate Duke Arthur.
The investigation of the chamber will inevitably invite the participation of the Temple of Justice, which is also the most effective way of investigation.
Just when Chairman Brewer picked up his pen and was about to sign his name, there was a knock on his office door. Hearing the familiar knocking sound, he knew it was his secretary.
"Come in!" Chairman Brewer said in a deep voice.
The secretary is an important confidant of Chairman Brewer, and he will not be disturbed at this time if there is no important matter.
"My lord, there is an urgent matter that you need to check immediately!" The secretary said with a bow.
"Where is the urgent message?" Chairman Brewer asked with a frown.
"It's from the Temple of War!" The secretary had sent the parchment printed with the Temple of War to Chairman Brewer's desk at this time, and replied.
Chairman Brewer paid attention to it, and he must check the urgent mail from the temple as soon as possible.
When he opened the dispatch, he saw a special seal, which was the personal seal of Annabella Templar, which made him breathe a little more relaxed, for fear that his heavy breathing would stain the letter.
If you want to say who in the Temple of War is the least to be provoked, then the number one is definitely the Annabelle Templar.
Even the Archbishop of the Temple of War would not care about this emissary who was favored by the God of War. Fortunately, the Annabelle Templars hardly participated in power struggles, and even if they had a little temper, they would not make any trouble. event.
Chairman Brewer finished reading Annabella's dispatch from the Templars, and his face couldn't help becoming a little gloomy.
Of course it wasn't because of Annabelle Templar, even if Chairman Brewer had the guts to have such an idea.
Chairman Brewer is angry at the intelligence system of the Chamber, why no one told him that Duke Arthur has such a close relationship with Annabelle Templar, and let Annabelle Templar speak out for Duke Arthur .
If he had just signed the order on the table and launched an investigation into Duke Arthur, then he would have offended Annabelle Templar to death.
Chairman Brewer let out a long sigh of relief, and he gently put down the letter in his hand.
"A meeting will be held in one hour, all supervisors are invited to attend!" Chairman Brewer ordered in a deep voice.
"Yes, my lord!" The secretary bowed in response, then turned and left the office.
Chairman Brewer picked up the written and unsigned order on the desktop, tore it into pieces, and threw it into the trash can beside him.
In his heart, the status of Duke Arthur has been raised a bit, from ordinary nobles to the level of great nobles that should be valued.
Chairman Brewer's position on the nobility is not judged by the strength of speculation, but the influence of the nobility. With the support of Annabelle Templar, Duke Arthur naturally became the upper-level existence of the great nobility.
