Chapter Ninety-Six: The Target?
One o'clock in the morning, it was the twenty-seventh day since Ling Qi came to this world, and with his status as an honorary baron of Koloel, and the warden's maintenance on the surface, he couldn't imagine anyone who would blatantly offend him. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
In his consciousness, he gave instructions to Leo and asked him to follow, Ling Qi put away the long knife mixed with copper, hugged Tybriel, Shi Ran walked downstairs, and as soon as he reached the first floor, he saw some familiar figures arguing with Moti. The grumpy giant man, with red faces and red ears, saw a slap towards the comer, but the man shook slightly, and after a muffled sound of hitting the ground, the powerful Moti was actually knocked back again and again and fell to the ground!
"You !!"
Moti was furious, and Kara was almost about to do it with a hammer in one hand!
"Humph!"
Ling Qi walked out of the darkness and walked quickly to Moti's side, helping him up, and then looked at the people, and finally locked his eyes on the two figures standing behind them.
The Countess and her personal chief of the guard!
"Ariana-sama, what is the situation, why did I, as a nobleman, be provoked by a mob in the middle of the night!
What kind of thugs and bandits, looking at the equipment of a few people, it is clearly the most elite group of soldiers in the empire - the Blade Guard!
Ling Qi's tone was indifferent, he didn't hide the anger on his face, but he was thinking quickly in his heart.
As an orthodox aristocrat, Ling Qi's performance was impeccable, and no one liked to be woken up in the middle of the night in the face of such a frowning situation.
The countess was a little embarrassed at first, then looked at Ling Qi's indifferent face, and opened her mouth to explain, but she couldn't say it immediately. This man, who I saw yesterday and still felt gentle and polite, is not pleasing to the eye now.
The person is still that person, he looks decent, has good facial features, and has a tall figure, why does he always make people think that he is annoying and hypocritical?
"Ahem~ I'm sorry, Baron Lynch, these are not thugs, but the last shield wall of the Empire - the Blade Guards. They said that there are some things that they want you to assist in the investigation, which is a secret within the royal family, and I don't want to ask too much, I hope you can understand!"
Ling Qi raised his eyebrows, the countess's words surprised him a little, such a naked shirk, obviously he didn't want to protect him. But they were still yesterday—
Soul Slayer!
Ling Qi immediately realized that it was this damn professional talent that was at work again!
He suddenly understood his current situation, and an evil fire suddenly rose in his heart, as if he had returned to the time when he was cornered and his family was ruined.
At that time, wasn't he also the enemy, looking up and looking around at a loss?
Two inquiring thoughts came from his consciousness, which made his anger disappear!
Yes, he is no longer alone!
"Hahahahaha
"Hmph, don't be in a hurry to refute!"
"I still remember that some time ago, I was ordered by His Majesty to take the imperial amulet and go to the Vernon Monastery. His Majesty's last words ordered me to go to Gaphael, saying that the man would assist me, and asked me to carry a letter, saying that he would understand after reading the letter!"
"As a result, he drove me out of the Vinnon Monastery and snatched the imperial amulet, saying that he had his own opinions! It is not the duty of civilians to save the world!"
"What are you coming to me for now? The Plane of Annihilation has begun to invade? Gaphael can't help it? Or does he finally remember the letter? Realize his mistake! With the power that he also wants to steal the artifact? Dreaming! Hmph! Assist in the investigation! I think you should investigate yourself first! What is the shield wall of the Empire, the poisonous snakes of the Empire are almost the same!"
Ling Qi said loudly, with his physical strength at the moment, he was really full of energy, and the voice spread far away, and the surrounding mansions were immediately lit up with lights, and even the countess and her bodyguards who were hiding behind the three blade guards were stunned!
If it was the previous Blade Guard, what were they going to do, how could anyone dare to doubt that the Blade Guard was an extension of the Emperor's will, and they were carrying out His Majesty's will!
And now, I'm afraid that the Blade Guard has become a word of Gaphael, and the prestige status of the Blade Master in the organization will only be higher than that of the old emperor, after all, he is the seedling he has trained single-handedly!
Ling Qi knew the loyalty and details of the Blade Guard, and what others knew was all hearsay.
Coupled with his half-true description of the matter of "passing the talisman", it immediately evokes imagination!
Especially his sentence, the old emperor's last words, asked him to go to Gaphael, saying that the dignified blade master would actually assist him, and also sent a private message, what does this mean?!
Ariana had already begun to think about it, and immediately put all her inexplicable ill feelings towards Ling Qi behind, and glanced at the chief guard beside her, who was also stunned, and quietly took a few steps back!
"Damn it!"
"Bastard!"
"What the hell are you talking nonsense!"
The three blade guards immediately rushed into rage, and they had already pressed their hands on the hilt of their swords, if they didn't care about anything, they would have made the man in front of them splatter five steps of blood.
Ling Qi was not afraid to counterattack, glared at several people angrily, and shouted:
"Tell me, what do you want me to cooperate with the investigation, or did Gaphael find out something, such as my identity, so you came here to tie me up?"
It's subtle, and it's naked!
What identity?
"Nonsense! Damn it! It must be you! It must be you, the thief, who stole the imperial amulet! The master was right! You must have done it!"
Lost the Imperial Amulet?!
Ling Qi was first surprised, then happy, and immediately thought of Lucian, but he didn't dare to be sure. Did he try to frame himself? Or did he do it? Or did someone else do it!
Since Gaphael suspected him, he must have some evidence in his hands, and he really didn't do such a thing, let alone have no ability.
However, what Ling Qi is best at is improvising and leveraging his strength!
Dealing with a few blade guards who are good at fighting, but have no IQ, Ling Qi said that there is no pressure!
There are always advantages to brainwashing education, and the disadvantages are also obvious, these people don't know how to be flexible!
"Hmm?!The amulet was lost? So what! Don't say it's not me, even if it's me! The imperial amulet was originally passed down and handed over to me by His Majesty! It was Gaphael who snatched it from me!"
Seeing those blade guards shouting angrily and drawing their swords out of their sheaths, Ling Qi took a step closer and reprimanded:
"Do you dare to say that I did not send the Imperial Amulet to the Vernon Monastery!! do you dare to say that I did not convey His Majesty's last words to Gaphael, nor did he sweep me and a few of my companions out of the door after humiliating them?!"
What happened a week ago is no longer a secret now, Ling Qi left angrily after going to the Vernon Monastery, and this matter has long been investigated by some well-intentioned people. Where can Moti's big mouth keep secrets, except for the most critical part, he complains to people very little when he is drunk.
Besides, there is no impermeable wall in the world, people don't see it, and they don't know how to make up for it?
The Blade Guards were immediately questioned, in fact they didn't know anything about it, and Gaffel had never explained the origin of the amulet. However, a few other friends of the monastery seem to have mentioned that a few days ago, a few people were ordered by the emperor to go to the Vernon Monastery to escort the imperial amulet.
If it were Ling Qi, it would not be too easy to reverse black and white, but the three self-proclaimed righteous Blade Guards would not be able to do such a thing.
What's more, they just don't know how to be flexible and don't like to use their brains, which doesn't mean they don't have brains.
One of the "smart people" had even begun to "wake up", and at that moment, he glanced at Ling Qi and saw a little bit of something peeking out of the man's chest!!!!!
That's—
"Imperial Amulet!"
Blade Guard, how can you not know the emperor's token!
Of course, Ling Qi didn't have a sense of foresight, and he usually wouldn't hang this scourge around his neck.
But just after going downstairs, before he appeared, he had already seen someone coming, and subconsciously pulled out an "Emperor Talisman" from his arms and hung it, thinking that it might be useful later, and it turned out to be this thing.
He deliberately leaked the corner of the imperial talisman, in fact, even if he was not carrying the imperial talisman, it was just something more similar, and after the foreshadowing of the previous conversation, it was not suspicious.
Before the other two Blade Guards could react, the nimble man's face had changed dramatically, and he thought of what someone who had secretly contacted him on behalf of the Senate a few days ago, and all the "evidence" he had presented.
At that time, he only thought that the man was deceiving him and trying to make him turn his back on the glorious faith, how could Master Blade do such a thing? Although he had not been close enough to his companions, although Master Blade seemed to be very strict with him, and even deprived him of the glory of being His Majesty's personal bodyguard, and instead gave this opportunity to Paulus, who was more pleasing to the Master, but this was also his own discouragement!
The skills are not as good as others, and they are helpless.
Now? How can this be explained!
Fluttering, double rabbits on the ground~
It is already difficult to distinguish right from wrong, and in the bottom of the heart that has already been shaken, it is even more unpredictable. In many cases, the truth will change with people's hearts, because there are always some people who need such a truth.
Ling Qi didn't know how many people he wanted to deal with Gaffir, and the arrogant and stubborn Blade Master was never a pleasing character, let alone explained anything to anyone!
His explanation is his knife!
