Chapter 1074: Snatching

Originally, it was just an exhibition team, although in the name of the empire, but this kind of trivial matter could not be reported to Yalan's side. But this matter was originally Yalan's focus, so the accident was reported to Yalan's side as soon as it happened.

Of course, Linton took over the rest directly, after all, Yalan didn't know what Linton was trying to do, and Linton didn't seriously mention the matter of the core of the world to Yalan.

After saying goodbye to Arran, Linton went directly to the location of the incident, the city of Antorom, located in the northeast of the empire. This is a relatively large city in the northeast of the empire, and the exhibition has already walked around the western part of the empire at this time, and is about to continue the exhibition from west to east, from the northeast to the east of the empire, and just as it is about to pass through the city of Antorom, something happened.

Linton is marked on the core of that world, so if needed, Linton can directly teleport to find someone. It's just that because of Yalan's key attention, the report was too timely, resulting in an accident here, and the news was received there. Linton estimates that this thing may not have been brought back to the other party's base or something like that, his goal is to catch a big fish, so it is best to give the other party a little time for this thing to be sent to the big fish, so he will come here to see the situation first, and confirm whether the other party's target is the core of this world, or an ordinary money grabber.

When he arrived at the scene of the incident, Linton realized that the incident was more exaggerated than he thought. When Linton arrived in the city of Antorom, he found that the whole city was under martial law, and after a little questioning of the man named Sektin, who came to greet him, he realized how exaggerated the other party was.

It happened this morning, in the city of Antorom. In fact, the exhibition team arrived in the city of Antorom two days ago, and after two days of preparation, they are preparing to open the exhibition tomorrow. At this time, the exhibits were placed in the warehouse of the Temple of Tesra in the city of Antorom. Yes, this exhibition is borrowed from the territory of a temple, because there is no special museum in the city of Antorom, and this temple is a large place, which is just right.

Then, this morning, a group of people rushed directly into the temple and directly snatched all the exhibits. Say yes, probably, because the other party didn't leave a single living mouth? All the guards? The people of the temple, and even the passers-by, were silenced. Sektin, too, was lucky to survive because he wasn't there in the morning? It wasn't until the afternoon that the patrol found out that something was wrong that the tragedy happened here? Just notified him, come to the scene to see? Saikedin was stupefied and quickly reported the situation to Arran.

What are you talking about? Linton also followed Sekedin to the scene of the incident? Sure enough, the scene was a tragic situation. At the entrance, Linton saw obvious bloodstains, but he didn't see the body, and asked about it, although the scene was blocked, but it was not moved? Presumably the corpse of the person who robbed it before moved it himself? Concentrate the corpses in the temple, presumably delay the time of discovery.

Sure enough, after entering the inside, Linton directly saw the corpses in a room, at least thirty people, half of them were guards, and the other half should be the original personnel of the temple. And that's not all the people? I've heard that there are quite a few rooms over there.

The lord of Antorom City was also there, and of course he knew Linton? Guessing that Linton should be in charge of this matter, he immediately came over and reported the situation. More than 50 bodies have been found so far? Given that the other party can kill so many people in a short period of time, and it hasn't been detected yet? The city lord felt that the attackers had at least a full squad? And it's still professional.

Such a vicious event? Of course, the city lord issued martial law as soon as possible and directly blocked the entire city, but because it was discovered a little late, and the other party looked very professional, it may have been evacuated by now. But now the city guards are still going door-to-door searching for the gang.

"Lord Sword Saint, look at this wound, I suspect that these people should have regular military training, not ordinary bandits." The city lord here is obviously also from the military, and he inferred seriously. Of course, the people who can become the city lord basically have to make military merits, and it is estimated that it is difficult to achieve this kind of real power position just by relying on the shadow of the family.

Linton looked at it a little, the dead person was basically cut in the throat with a knife, or stabbed in a critical position, it was indeed very professional, although Linton himself had never joined the army, but he could also understand the inference of the city lord. After thinking about it, he said: "It is indeed quite professional to be able to kill so many people, and it hasn't caused an alarm yet, but if you want to figure out the defense configuration here, you may need an internal ......."

"Poof", as soon as Linton finished speaking, Sekding next to him knelt down directly, "My lord, I'm not an internal response." ”

Linton frowned, this guy knelt too fast, and didn't say anything about you.

"My lord, I know that I am the only one left in the exhibition team now, and it is indeed suspicious, but I really am not guilty. I wasn't there because I was a guest at Lord Serra's place, and I overslept in the morning......" said Sekhdin.

"Yes, my lord, I had a banquet last night." The city lord next to him also answered, "I did drink too much, Lord Saikding spent the night at my house yesterday." ”

It turned out that the team in charge of the exhibition sent by Yalan was hung up, and the only thing left was this Saikdin, who heard Linton say that there was an internal response, of course, this guy immediately felt that Linton was talking about himself. But seriously, Linton feels that the courage shown by this guy doesn't look like a person who can do this, and Linton is not actually here to catch the real murderer, it doesn't matter what he should be, he wants to find someone who understands the core of the world.

"Alright, I didn't say it was you." "It's important to get to the ...... of the matter as soon as possible," Linton said.

Before he finished speaking, a soldier next to him rushed over very urgently: "City Lord, I have found out the situation." ”

"Speak quickly!" The city lord Serra immediately said, of course he is also very anxious, of course he is responsible for such a vicious incident under his rule, and now he wants to quickly find out about this matter, otherwise his city lord may also be the end.

"According to the report of the staff of the teleportation array, they encountered a very strange mercenary team this morning, this mercenary team has a total of more than ten people, and they all chose to use the teleportation array, and what is even more strange is that they actually chose five different cities for teleportation, and the staff said that some of them carried several boxes." The guard reported.

"They must be." The city lord Serra immediately said, "The time can be right, so suspicious, it must be them." ”

The suspicion of what Serra said was obvious, not just the problem of the chest, but the problem of using the teleportation array. You must know that the teleportation array is not free, and the fee is very expensive. It's not that the mercenaries can't afford it, but more than a dozen people use it together, so the price is too high, generally so many people, choosing to go directly by land is obviously suitable for the mercenary team, not to mention that they actually scattered to five cities, is this dispersion to increase the difficulty of their tracking?

Hearing this, Linton was overjoyed, yes, the purpose of these people Linton can understand it very simply, he likes that the other party is separated. Because according to the report, these people went to different cities in groups of two or three people, respectively, with boxes suspected of containing treasures, so since they are separated, it means that what the other party actually wants is not all of these treasures, but should be one of the treasures, and the other roads are all suspicious soldiers, and the most wanted thing should be one of the ones who is responsible for sending it over, which ...... Just what Linton expected.

Obviously, Linton thinks that what the other party wants is the core of the world, so it seems that he may not be wrong.

"Quickly contact the city lords of those cities to help track down the situation of these people." The city lord here said.

"Yes, sir." The soldiers here received the order and immediately went down.

"Even if you go to those cities, it is very likely that the other party has also transferred, after all, since you retreated through the teleportation array, you can naturally continue to use it." Linton said, "These people are so well prepared, I don't think it took the last two days to target you." ”

"Lord Sword Saint, don't worry, I will definitely do my best to find it." Of course, these city lords Serra also knew what Linton said, but as long as they used the teleportation array, they were naturally recorded, and they knew where they went, so they were not traceless.

"Her Majesty has put me in charge of this matter, and you must assist me well." Linton said.

"Yes, sir." The two said at the same time, after all, Linton had no direct accountability, which made them relax a little.

"My lord, there's news!" At this moment, another soldier hurriedly ran over, "There is news from the city of Monserrato, three very suspicious people have passed by the teleportation array on their side before this, and the city guards over there have noticed that something is wrong with them, and while investigating, these three people suddenly attacked, killed several city guards, and then absconded. The city has now been sealed off over there, and these three people are being hunted down, and these three people have passed from our side before, and the Lord of Monserrato has sent someone to our side to inquire about the situation. ”

"It's got to be those guys." When Serra heard this, he immediately said, "Tell the city lord of Monserrato about the situation on our side immediately, and ask him to assist us in catching these three people quickly." ”

"Yes." The soldier said immediately.

"My lord, I have a clue." "If you catch a team, you can catch them." ”

"It's exposed, it's a little easy." Linton said with a sudden touch of his chin.
