Chapter 230: The Absent-Minded King
The King laughed and strode in, Earl Kelas and Master Croft following behind him.
Rod and Simone saluted respectfully.
Professor Poundle slouched to his feet and walked behind the King.
The king sat down in his chair with great strides.
"Although Luo Qing boldly said, what did you find, who is the mastermind behind the scenes, and who is the first culprit in the serial bombing case."
Rhodes bowed and saluted, since the king had said so, then of course he would not talk nonsense.
"Back to the king, the remaining two cases have been clarified, only the second case."
"When the serial explosion occurred, the minister and Baron Simone spotted a suspicious person, and when they were about to track it, they heard gunshots in the banquet hall, and because they were worried about Baron Nina, the minister asked his companion Baron Marianne to track the person, and then turned around and rushed to the banquet hall."
"After the minister and Baron Simone rushed to the banquet hall, they found that the gangster was holding a half-liberated shotgun, the strongest attack level could reach 12, and the wielder was one of Heimi's killers."
"Semi-liberated shotgun ......."
The king muttered, and Rhodes paused.
"Master Crof, there may be technology or talent within Heimi to liberate weapons."
Croft took a sip of wine and thought for a moment.
"Back to the king, as far as the old man knows, there is currently no organization other than the empire and the major kingdoms that have mastered the relevant technology, and there are even fewer people who can liberate weapons, and there is no such talent among the black mi."
"That is......."
The king's brows furrowed slightly, and there seemed to be a cold light in his eyes, obviously thinking of the envoy of the Alan Kingdom.
"Luo Qing, you continue."
Rhodes respectfully should be.
"At that time, Xiao Chen thought that the foreign guest explosion and the serial explosion were committed by the same person, but he didn't want to get the news of the invasion of the special academy by the resistance group through the Tiffany assistant teacher, so he and Baron Simone's soldiers split up, and Xiao Chen tracked down the main culprit of the serial bombing case."
"I don't want that person to be ......."
Roder paused and glanced at Sartre III.
"Go on and say, Whoever that man is, whoever it may be, this king forgives you innocence."
Sartre III had a cold face.
Only one member of the Guards disappeared, the one the King himself promoted to replace Reg as Captain of the Guard.
In fact, the king had already ascertained that he was the only one with whom he had disappeared.
It's just that emotions are sometimes weird, even if you know what's going on, but you just want to be lucky.
Even the king is no exception.
When the Zhicore sent a hint that the king's mood might be subtle, he lured the king to say a word, so that the Zhicore could judge the content of the discourse, and then choose the explanation according to the language component.
This sentence is like a pressure relief valve, the king is also very human, the dragon pattern flashes with golden light, and the fire is suddenly poured out, and he returns to a calm and normal character.
Rod secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Back to the king, the man looks the same as the captain of the guard, and the shadow of Baron Marianne has been following, and he has entered a royal capital, which is controlled by a magician who has recently infiltrated it, and the captain of the guard has a close relationship with him."
Rhodes recounted everything from tracking down the captain of the Guard to the sorcerer being killed by the mini-dragon.
It's just that many subtle changes have been made in many places, without affecting understanding, highlighting the merits of Marianne, Roxanne, and others, and reducing the attention of the clubhouse.
Oddly enough.
Even the king, who had not changed when he heard that the captain of the guard had deceived the dragon pattern, suddenly stood up when he heard the mini-dragon.
The king's eyes widened as if he had thought of something unbelievable. Even Professor Pondel, who had always been steady, stared. Master Croft's eyes lit up and he took a hard sip of wine. Count Kelas's face suddenly darkened.
"You're saying that there is a special rune culture that exudes golden light as a mini dragon, and then it also absorbs the life force of that magician!?"
Rhodes should have been, confirming the king's words.
"Then take a look, is that golden light rune the same as this one?"
Sartre III stretched out his palm, and the dragon pattern was displayed in the palm of his hand, and the invisible coercion was faintly emanated, without any influence from the forbidden demon enchantment.
Rod made a moment of careful identification.
"Back to the king, although it feels similar, this golden light rune of yours feels even grander."
Rod doesn't mind a little sycophant.
After Sartre III confirmed the information, he bowed his head in contemplation, but regained his composure, and motioned for Rhodes to continue.
The king's expression remained unchanged, but his mood was not unchanged, and his mood change was easily obtained by the Zhi Core.
The king's left ear went in and out of his right, and his mind didn't linger in Rod's words at all, and he didn't even pay much attention to what happened to the Praetorian Guard.
After that, it seemed very calm, even if she heard the confusion control spell and the acrobatic troupe leader holding a half-liberated shotgun, she didn't make a fuss, and even Lena, who was calm, felt that something was wrong.
In the end, without waiting for Rhodes to say what was behind the scenes, Sartre III nodded suddenly, giving people the feeling that he was finally finished.
Not only did he not ask about the cause of the conflict between Rhodes and the Janissaries, but he didn't even ask about the Rebellion.
"You did a good job this time, and you should have been rewarded for ......."
The king said this, but he did not mean to reward it in the slightest.
The captain of the guard has not yet found out that he has been bribed, and his heart is already depressed. Now I am even more absent-minded, and I don't feel wrong at all.
"Your Majesty, you have rewarded us enough, and this is our dereliction of duty, and we really shouldn't reward us."
The king paused for a moment, and came back to his senses, as if he had sensed that something was wrong.
"Although you have made mistakes in the first place, you have made up for your mistakes, and you can successfully track down the mastermind behind the scenes, you should be rewarded."
"And the king will give each of you a thousand denarii as a token of encouragement."
A thousand gold coins, not too much, no less, these money is enough for ordinary people to live for a few lifetimes without worry.
But for Rhodes and others, they were embarrassed to even show it as a gift to meet the goddess of wealth.
But who let the other party be the king, even the king of the kingdom who will not be frightened in the face of the goddess of wealth.
Rod and Simone thanked him, and then consciously retreated with interest.
When Lena saw that the king was going to teach them what to say to Pondel, she also consciously quit and withdrew from the temporary palace with Rhodes and Simone.
The gate of the temporary palace closed, and the surroundings suddenly became silent, and the battle armor more than three meters high was like an iron statue, only the faint sound of breathing.
Lena strolled behind Rhodes and Simona and walked into the makeshift office together, and when she opened the door, she saw twenty people neatly organized, including Zhan 1, Zhan 2, and Zhan 3.
Simone glanced around with cold eyes: "What are you doing standing here, don't go on a mission quickly, even if there are Praetorian Guards around, you must not let your guard down." ”
"Yes!"
Twenty members breathed a sigh of relief and quickly ran out of the office.
"Hey, Zhanyi, what do you say, I thought I was going to be punished."
"I don't know, but I guess it's what happened."
"You two don't talk a little bit, be careful of being ...... by the deputy The deputy captain called back. ”
Lena slumped on the sofa: "Wow, it's so comfortable, I've been suffering these days." ”
Rod and Simone rolled their eyes speechlessly, that is, they didn't bother to pay attention to the words of one or three people, and they didn't bother to respond to Lena.
Lena suddenly jumped up energetically: "By the way, Rod, who is the mastermind behind the scenes." ”
Simone tapped Lena's head: "You don't think about it yourself, the answer is already obvious." ”
