Chapter 942: Looking for the Man Who Lifted the Table
Rod, who turned into a night crow, and Jana, who turned into a blue bird, flew to the palace of Demacia - the palace was not large, and the two quickly found the location of the accident.
Outside the dormitory of Jiawen III, the smell of blood had not completely dissipated, and the corpses were even converging, and in mid-air, Rhodes quickly discovered the wounds on these corpses.
Throat, chest, kidneys, temples......
Almost all of them were fatally wounded.
And judging from the condition of the wounds, these fatal injuries are all caused by short blades, the killer will kill with one blow, the shot is clean and neat, and the blood stains on the ground are also pools and pools, the amount of bleeding is not much, and there is no blood rushing.
They are all good at killing.
Rhodes and Cana circled for a long time, then quietly left - after that, Rhodes asked about what Cana had seen.
"Is there a reaction to the runic energy?"
"Nope." Jana shook her head without hesitation, "These assassins don't use any rune energy at all, and the palace walls here are all made of forbidden magic stones, so it's impossible for ordinary people to use spells. ”
"That is." Rod frowned, "The assassination of these guys is completely physical, at most it is unequaled?" ”
“…… Yes. After being with Rhodes for a long time, Jana also roughly knew what Wushuang meant, "Those assassins should be good, but they can make all the guards unable to sound a warning, which is not something that can be done with agility - even if it is easy, it is not easy to do this first." ”
"That's the problem." Rhodes nodded, "Theoretically, the palace in Demacia is almost forbidden to demons, and the physical defense level is terrifying, under this kind of strict guard, an emperor will be killed on the bed...... There is only one possibility. ”
"You mean?"
"There's an inner ghost." Rhodes sighed softly, "There are people who are familiar with the patrol route and the deployment of the guards, and only in this way can this heavily guarded fortress be torn apart from the inside." ”
"That's right." Cana nodded, "But...... I'm afraid there aren't many people who can know the deployment and patrol routes of the palace guards, right? ”
"Not just not much, but very little."
"Zhao Xin?" Jana's tone was full of uncertainty, "And at the time of the crime, he was not by the side of Gawain III......"
“…… Do you think so too? ”
"Logically yes, but I don't think so."
"Then your feeling is very accurate." Rod rubbed his nose, "It's certain that the guards are stealing and the thieves shouting to catch the thieves, but the thieves are absolutely impossible to be Zhao Xin, he doesn't need to, and he doesn't need to, he is the head of the Guangdun family, and the three generations of the Guangdun are all irreversible, if he wants to rebel, it will be useful wherever he goes, why assassinate an old emperor?" ”
"But lately I've heard some rumors." "It is said that Zhao Xin once said that Jiawen IV is more like his grandfather, and Jiawen III is not very similar to his father......"
"Who said that?" Rod's eyes lit up, "Someone who can say something like that...... Is this because you don't expose yourself fast enough? ”
"I don't know." Jana shook her head, "A few rumors, then they didn't spread like that, and before I found the spreader, no one mentioned the rumors." ”
"It's kind of interesting......"
These Rhodes finally narrowed their eyes.
A short-lived rumor is fleeting in Demacia--as long as this rumor spreads earlier, and someone patiently closes it afterwards, if it spreads in a short time, it will rarely leave any traces, and it is completely an urban legend.
But if this rumor is taken as a vaccine...... That's pretty interesting.
The people behind the scenes put out the seemingly inconsequential rumors they wanted to spread before they planned it, spread it widely in a short period of time, and then quietly erased their hands and feet, and then when the plan was underway, people would find that the rumor was as prophetic as it was prophecied......
When the time comes, the lethality of rumors will not only increase by countless notches, but the rumor-mongers will hardly be caught.
Clever wrists.
If this incident is not a coincidence, then I am afraid that in this game, the death of Jiawen III is just a link, and Jiawen IV will also become a target in the future - the two men of the Light Shield family are over, and the end of the throne means that the throne changes hands......
Someone wants to get a taste of the Emperor of Demacia?
Rhodes had been prepared for this matter for a long time - but back to the beginning of the question, if this is the case, then the inner ghost is not Zhao Xin, who has hidden those guards, avoided patrols, and completed the assassination of Jiawen III under the protection of many forbidden magic stones?
Apart from Zhao Xin, who else can have information on the patrol of the guards of the Demacia Palace?
Could it be that it has been stepping on the spot for a long time?
No, it shouldn't be, the palace is not a place that can be easily come and go, although stepping on the point step by step is a feasible stupid method, but this stupid method is too abrupt in the whole plan - considering that the time for the intensification of the conflict between Jiawen and his son is only half a year, it seems that it is too late to step on the time slowly.
Just when Rhodes was wondering about the assassination method, he suddenly thought of the Muriel family's way to trouble the Laurent family - the Muriel family is very inconspicuous, but they have the sewers of Demacia, if any family has specific information about the construction of the Demacian Palace, then it will be much more difficult to get some information about patrolling......
"Fiona!" Without caring too much, Rhodes directly found Fiona, who woke up in a hurry because of the assassination, "Help me find out, who are the designers and builders of the Demacia Palace, and which families they come from!" ”
"Uh......"
Fiona was stunned for a moment, and after seeing Rod's hot appearance, she immediately began to instruct her cronies and servants to check the family records.
At this time, the benefits of the big family were reflected - in the clues of the family's old affairs, the names of each family were listed, and the final number was locked on 7.
However, after Rhodes' investigation one by one, it was found that these seven families were far away from Demacia Xiongdu, and almost all of them were concentrated near the northern border - the leader was the Durang family.
These families...... It doesn't look like it's doing something.
Just when Rhodes was considering whether to ask the Durang family directly, someone made a new discovery.
"Just eight years ago, the palace was renovated once!"
"The renovation was undertaken by the Galmendo Design Society, designed by immigrants who had settled in Demacia, and who brought a lot of interesting details to the palace......"
Galmendo Design Association?
Rhodes felt as if he had heard the name somewhere.
