Chapter 52: The Search for the Truth
The group of four booked two rooms, and soon, they all huddled on Ian's bed and began to discuss the next battle strategy.
Ian took the flyer in his hand and flipped through it, and there was no more information on it except for some of the storefronts of the event.
"Maybe it's just propaganda. Pamulissa was giving Ian a slap on the back and looked at the flyer in his hand.
"The guy was serious, not like he was lying. Ian said to Oleg: "They hate mages. ”
"Of course, they don't like the Bloodclan either. Oleg already had two blood bags beside him: "People who come to Kewei City don't like overly powerful individuals, becoming a mage requires a talent of one in a thousand, and becoming a blood clan requires the approval of another blood clan, these are not ordinary people can do." ”
"I heard about it in another town. Ian remembered the town he had visited on his way to the Southern Villa: "They think that Cowey City has given many ordinary people a way out, and as long as they study science systematically, they can find a job in Cowey City or elsewhere, and some people will even live better because of it." Oh, by the way, we also met a trainee mage on the way, and he also said that he wanted to go to the city of Kowe. ”
"If that's the case...... Will they also dislike the House of Lords?" asked Xia Nai next to him, "The power held by the House of Lords is not something that ordinary people can easily obtain. ”
"That's why there is a House of Commons. Oleg said: "Do you think that the House of Commons is naturally there? More than half of the people in it are from the radical parties in the city of Kowi, and the rest are ordinary people controlled by the House of Lords themselves, and the Black Tower and the Northern Nation do not bother to participate at all." ”
"But the contradiction is always there, I can feel it. Ian said something that was not appropriate for his age: "The appearance of the city of Covey has upset the balance between the Black Tower and the House of Lords. Originally the Black Tower, which was quiet from the House of Lords, now the city of Cowi has appeared in Manda with their new ideas, and the people are eager for their inclusive technology, but it has also inspired the idea of crossing classes. If this continues, only one side of the city of Cowi and the House of Lords will survive. ”
"I see it very clearly. Oleg nodded: "But many people are so skeptical, especially after the Isha incident appeared. ”
"If we don't find out the truth, the House of Lords will let the Ian family step forward to block the knife, and if we find out the truth, the city of Cowe may transfer the anger to the House of Lords, and the Ian family will die. Ian sighed, "I really don't understand why my father is so close to Blacktower. ”
Xanai and Pamulisa could not answer the question, and Oleg, as if he had not heard, took a sip of blood and did not speak.
"Let's go, let's get to the bottom first. Ian didn't wait for an answer, and the noise outside the window hooked his heart.
This city is the city where the murder occurred. According to Lucius Grant, Isha used an uncontrolled spirit spell ———— Gemini to assassinate Holder in the city, and the jury seems to be out as to how it was done.
Guangming 2 Page should have come here to negotiate, and I don't know what the outcome will be.
"There are so many people here. ”
"Quiet, Pamelissa. Xia Nai covered her mouth, and her voice was just a little high-pitched, which also attracted the disgruntled eyes of many people.
This small square, very quiet. All the noisy steam cars were persuaded to leave at the end of the street, and the pedestrians walked silently through the street with small flowers in their hands, and came to this small square, placing flowers beside lit candles, and wreaths on all sides.
This is the place to pay tribute to Holder, and Ian looks up at the tall building next to it, which is still a half-finished product, but has to continue to stop work because of the murder.
Originally, the city of Kowei was going to build a more modern, reinforced concrete building, decorated with the finest polished glass, which is flashy but already the best product of the city.
It took almost two years for the Kewei Group to advertise the building, which almost carries the vision of the next generation, but now, under the cover of night, no one can enter or leave the factory. Ian also saw two knights of the House of Lords near the gate, their armor and the busy streets looking out of place.
"Is there a way to sneak in?" Ian whispered in Oleg's ear.
"Or you go yourself, I'll deliver a wreath here. Oleg liked him very much: "In this kind of place, I have to be prepared to be hunted down when I go in, how do you want me to take you?"
"Hey, you've lived for over a thousand years. ”
"Ficher has outlived me, but weaker than me. Oleg said: "Let's just look around." Oleg pressed the hat on his head and walked cautiously through the crowd, completely retracting his fangs.
He didn't even dare to approach the gate of the sealed construction site, as it was now, and if any magic fluctuations were detected, the angry masses would probably tear them to shreds.
"Mom, who killed Mr. Holder? ”
"It's the mage of the Black Tower, the Supreme Court has started the trial, I heard it's called Issa Sher. ”
"Why are they doing this?"
"They are jealous of the city of Covey and jealous of us. Each of us can do what a mage can do, but it will take them a lifetime. ”
"Jealousy is bad, isn't it?"
"Yes, only demons are jealous of others. ”
Passing by a mother and daughter, Ian overhears this conversation.
Every citizen of Kowei City may think so, but judging from Isha's cognition, the mage's attitude towards Kowi City may be a little more objective.
For mages, the possibilities are endless. Every mage, even if he is thrown to the city of Covey, is still a master of science.
Isha once said that spells and science are indistinguishable from each other on the path of exploration.
How could such a mage come to Kewei City to kill people?
But Ian had also seen her Gemini Spirit Charm, the violent girl in red, who really looked out of control.
"Shut Druman, look. Oleg poked Ian with his elbow, and they went around the center of the square and looked at the unfinished building that was close at hand from the side: "There were traces of a fight on it, and a gap was blown out." ”
They said there were many witnesses that day, and many saw a red girl levitating in mid-air. Pamulissa emerged from the shadows and eavesdropped on passers-by.
"And the army, when the city of Kowi sent troops, but did not catch him. Xia Nai said on the side.
"I saw it when I was in the Blacktower, and the Blacktower sent a man on a dragon ride to the city of Kowe......" Ian looked down in thought.
"Dragon?" Oleg didn't ask who was coming, but he seemed to have an impression of the dragon in the Black Tower: "Is it snow-white, with thorns on the top of the head, and a blue magic crystal on the forehead?"
"Like...... There are no crystals. Ian recalled.
"Maybe it's all its children, I've seen the guardian dragon of the Black Tower, that vein is the dragon clan that has disappeared, it is said that it was adopted by the Immortal Page of the Black Tower, and may have helped it reproduce. Oleg said: "It seems that they take this very seriously. ”
"But what I don't understand is that it doesn't look like an assassination. ”
"It could also have been a conflict while fleeing. Oleg circled around the outside of the construction site and slowly analyzed: "The Committee of Nine must have its own bodyguards, and like I said, the Kewei Group also has 'Nine Stars'. ”
"Who the hell is 'Nine Stars'?"
"Who knows? Unlike the Ten Pages of the Black Tower, many people don't know they exist. After all, science is not like magic, sometimes a person walks past you, and you can't tell if he is the so-called 'nine stars'. ”
"If you don't even know about their existence, why scare yourself?" Ian said, "If it's really that powerful, you don't need the Black Tower to arrest people by herself......"
As he was talking, Ian suddenly noticed that Oleg had fallen behind, and when he looked back, he saw him standing in front of an alley, staring straight into the darkness in the depths, ignoring Ian.
"What's wrong?"
"Shhhh Oleg held out a finger and looked at the sparse flow of people around him. Perhaps to avoid attracting attention, Oleg was silent for a moment, and then he raised his feet and walked down the alley.
But before Ian could step forward, a bat suddenly fluttered out of the alley.
Oleg, who was half of his body into the alley, was stunned, but he still walked into the darkness decisively, and beckoned Ian and the others to come in by the way.
Darkness is the domain of Shanai and Pamorisa, and Oleg thinks that it is safe for them to enter, even if he can't protect them, the strength of the two forest elves is remarkable.
But what he didn't expect was that the things in the depths of this alley were not ordinary.
The bat at the door was just an ordinary guide, it attracted Oleg to walk in, but soon, he didn't know how to get out.
Oleg looked back and saw that the three Ian were gone.
That's impossible.
Oleg's first thought was that he was being calculated by other bloodlines, and there were not many people who were eyeing Ian IV.
But who can snatch people from him? The news of Oleg's defeat of Ficher should have spread, and everyone knows that the blood clan has an upstart, and the blood clan must be the majority at this time, and it is impossible for anyone to choose someone to fight with him at this time.
Who could that be? Oleg had a surge of anger in his heart, the dark blue spirit spell and dark red witchcraft, combined with his extremely strong physical fitness, were ready to break through this darkness directly.
It's impossible to control him in just one area.
"Don't worry, they're all right. Suddenly, a very young male voice came and stopped Oleg. He looked back, wondering where the sound was coming from, and looked down slightly to find a little boy standing in front of him, looking harmless.
But being able to stand in front of him quietly is probably not a simple character.
"Who are you?" Oleg took a step back.
"A bloodline who has lived longer than you, Mr. Oleg, I have been waiting for you for a long time. The boy stepped out of the way, revealing a huge vampire coffin behind him.
