Chapter 224: The Earl's Death
A Black Knight of the Steam Alliance, a Cardinal Archbishop of the Church of Light, plus that Ranger suspected of being of the Natural School, and Chris of the Witcher Society.
In this way, the four major organizations have all Templar-level powerhouses coming, including the nearby cities of Diramo and Yuhami, and the activities of this club are very unusual.
"I've found a lot of old powerhouses." The old goat looked left and right, and said with a stumbling voice.
He knows many more strong people than Rennes, who has not been in the industry for a long time.
In addition to the few Holy Halls in the conference room who had reached the fourth order, there were naturally many master-level powerhouses at the beginning of the fourth order or in the fourth order.
Wren saw the Duke of Norton in the left position in the front two rows, he was wearing a local tyrant's gold suit, looking very angry, whispering to a noble wife, and seemed to have a good conversation.
Before the host arrived, and the meeting had not begun, Wren was a little bored, turned his gaze to Mrs. Ellie on his left, and asked, "Duke Norton, have you really changed 1,000 girlfriends?" ”
The last time he came to Wilton, the most widely circulated and hottest lace news he heard was that Norton had a new girlfriend.
Mrs. Ellie was stunned for a moment, her beautiful eyes blinked, and she smiled lightly: "It's not that exaggerated, some are repetitive, but there are still hundreds." ”
There was no lack of sarcasm in her tone, and Norton had been ostracized by the aristocratic class because of his flashy title of Duke of Glory, which was just a sight to behold.
Most of the girlfriends he changed were some civilian women or high-level warblers, and many times, he paid for them, no different from the peach deal.
'Life wins...... Phew, shameful scum! ’
Wren cursed in his heart, his defeated generals were so romantic, which made him feel a little unbalanced, hundreds of them are also very powerful, you know, he is still a virgin.
Thinking of Keisha, he sighed and didn't think much about it, even though he only had one tree, it was almost the best one in the forest.
Mrs. Ellie stared at Wren, who was a little indignant, and wondered why he was suddenly a little upset.
"You have a vendetta against Norton?" She asked tentatively.
Wren came back to his senses when he heard this, and said in a relaxed tone: "No, no, we have a good relationship, and we may partner in a business in the future." ”
He almost killed Norton not long ago, and it was indeed a lifelong friendship, but now that he thinks about it, he is still too rude, how can he be cruel to a great archaeologist.
I have to find a chance to talk to him, I can't let him fall willingly, every day I know to play with women, and countless buried cultural relics are waiting for him to dig up!
Da-da-da-da!
Wren's thoughts were interrupted by the sound of heavy footsteps with a strong sense of rhythm, and outside the door in front of the conference room, a man in uniform walked in.
He had black hair and brown eyes, wore a half-top hat, and had a face with deep lines that were hard to forget, like a stone carving made by the best craftsmen.
As he walked unhurriedly to the stage, the people stopped whispering, and the hall fell silent.
Wren glanced at the badge on his shoulder, which was the pattern of two iron swords, and from this alone, he only knew that he belonged to the 7th Bureau Punisher Unit.
But you don't have to think about it to make it clear, the other party is at least a police commissioner.
"Good evening, thank you for coming, I'm Pal Adelaide from Game 7 and now I have something to discuss with you." The man named Parr said succinctly.
Immediately after, he didn't have any nonsense, picked up a black-covered notebook in his hand, and said straight to the point: "A week ago, the Earl of Wilton was found dead in a holiday villa east of Lake More. ”
"What?!"
"It can't be! I was there at the time, why didn't I hear a single movement? ”
"There are a lot of strong people there, and with the strength of the earl, even if he is defeated, he can ask for help."
There was a commotion in the conference room, and everyone was talking, obviously shocked by the news.
The Wilton family can be traced back to the time of the conquistadors, and it was originally a real duke family, and the entire city of Wilton was their fief at the beginning, even if it is now a little declining, but the power is still considerable.
After all, there is no real ducal family in Farowan, except for a few prominent marquises, few nobles dare to say that they are stronger than the Wilton family.
Wren and the old goat also frowned when they heard this, the resort area by Lake Moore has built some luxury villas, and there are many strong people living there, which is equivalent to the Belfort district of Bushen City.
The contemporary Earl of Wilton, although not the strongest in the family, is also a master-level transcendent at the beginning of the fourth order.
If he just killed the pampered Earl, Wren was confident that he could do it, but it would be too difficult to kill him quietly without attracting the attention of outsiders.
"The water is deep." The old goat muttered, the death of an influential earl, which was more serious than the killing of the mayor of Wilton.
Wren also pondered, this matter didn't seem to be anything at first, but from the beginning of the Wave Period to the present, it was the first time that a noble count had been killed, which was different from the death of an ordinary fourth-order transcendent.
He could feel the oppressive atmosphere in the conference room. Many people had panic on their faces, and some women even cried quietly.
It's been too long.
The superintendent of the 7th Bureau on the stage, Parr, stared at him and said with a cold face: "Quiet! What are you panicking about? ”
Everyone gathered their thoughts, and the scene gradually calmed down, and they all looked at Parr and waited for the following.
"According to the investigation, the murderer is most likely a dark duke of the Rui Demon clan, and perhaps he has a helper.
It can be said that this was a premeditated operation, and it may be that the Demon Spawn wanted to create panic and disturb the peace and security in this area.
Recently, it is recommended that everyone do not go to unfamiliar places, and if you encounter some suspicious guys, stay vigilant and ......" Parr said in a cold voice with a straight face.
It's a tricky affair, a Blood Duke who specializes in psychic attacks and illusions, and maybe a powerful teammate, and if they get some legal status, it would be too much of a headache to assassinate.
Wren and the old goat subconsciously glanced at each other, that's why Chris the "Shadow Hand" was sent here?
Searching and tracking down the Demon Descendants is the Guild's specialty, and in this regard, I am afraid that only the Inquisition of the Church of Light can match it, and coincidentally, there is a cardinal present.
The old goat muttered in a low voice: "Troubled times, one or several dark duke-level killers, many people are afraid that they will not be able to sleep now." ”
It's the feeling of a storm, killing and blood, fear and wailing, and Wren can't help but get a little excited.
