Chapter 464: The Drake Family
What kind of family is the Drake family, and now with the continuous disclosure of the details of the bloody investigation, it has undoubtedly become a huge question for the entire federation.
In people's initial impression, the Drake family is just a new upstart in the Supreme Council, neither the background of a large family, nor as dazzling as Su Mu.
At the end of the day, no one really paid attention to them.
But with the killing of the Spring Festival, more and more suspicions and weirdness are constantly appearing in front of people, which also makes people deeply realize:
In fact, all people don't know the existence around them as well as they imagined.
"I heard that the members of the Drake family are actually all dark magicians, otherwise those children who are only ten years old, how can they resist the attack from the Hanging Mountain Corps?"
A bold but plausible speculation was falling from the mouth of a federal official, causing the audience around them to immediately prick up their ears.
With the convergence of the investigation team, the news could not be concealed after all.
Whether it's about the huge suspicion of the Hanging Mountain Corps or about the strangeness of the Drake family, it has spread throughout the city of Skyward.
And the speaker at this time, after he threw out that bold speculation, looked at the unbelieving others with a little pride, and asked everyone again:
"If that's not the case, then why have all the members of the Drake family lost their blood? What else in this world could be so weird and vicious except for the dark magic that exchanges life for power?"
This person's words undoubtedly convinced most people in an instant.
Although in the eyes of real mages, the so-called black magic is just a form of power, and there is no so-called difference between good and evil.
But as far as the entire continent is concerned, even the most enlightened federation still thinks that black magic is a dirty and evil thing, something that represents absolute filth.
"And I'm afraid you don't know that on top of the federal household register, in fact, the entire Drake family appeared out of thin air...... The investigation team has just discovered that the ancestral origin of the Drake family is actually a forgery, and their entire family suddenly appeared more than ten years ago, and there is no trace of their previous life at all. ”
The speaker's news is undoubtedly more worthy of suspicion.
And those who knew him well in the audience knew that this person was the full-time official in charge of household registration in the federal government, since this news was leaking from him...... I'm afraid, nine times out of ten, it will be true!
......
In fact, the fact that the registrar added at the end was indeed a big suspicion about the Drake family.
Even the household registration officer himself, the reason why he paid special attention to this was precisely because the current bloodshed investigation team had become very suspicious of the Drake family itself, so he had ordered the department in charge of the household registration to specifically inquire about the materials in this regard.
"You mean...... The origin of the Drake family is actually all from forgery, and their real source has not been really clued so far. ”
Su Mu, who was once again present because of a new discovery, had just heard the news from Aiden's mouth.
But in fact, regarding this news, whether it was Su Mu, who had just arrived at the scene, or Aiden, who had been involved in the investigation process, they had already expected it.
"You called me here again today, just to do something?"
For other matters that need to be put down from time to time and come to the scene of the investigation immediately, Su Mu is obviously a little helpless.
Hearing Su Mu's complaint, Aiden could only smile apologetically, and then quickly explained:
"Of course, it won't be just this one, and now that the investigation is in the spotlight, all of them are reluctant to dig deeper into the attacker's question, but they are not so kind to the Drake family itself. Today, with the investigation team's thorough investigation of the bloody crime scene again, it has discovered another secret of the Drake family. ”
While Su Mu and Aiden were talking, they had already passed through the hall where the massacre had taken place, and continued along the corridor of the Drake family mansion until they came to a separate building at the back of the mansion.
"That place was originally the ancestral shrine of the Drake family, and because of the bloody incident, it didn't affect here at all, and the investigation team didn't pay attention to this location at all. ”
But now, with the exposure of the identity fraud of the Drake family, the investigation team immediately thought of entering the ancestral shrine to find out, and when they investigated the ancestral shrine in depth, they accidentally discovered a secret room under the ancestral shrine. ”
Aiden said, he had directly pushed open the door of the ancestral hall, and then neatly followed the entrance of the secret room that had already been opened, and directly led Su Mu into the so-called secret room.
......
The secret room under the ancestral ancestral hall of the Drake family is actually not as wide as it is in the movies and television presented in Su Mu's memory. After a narrow and sloping path that could only barely pass, the place that Su Mu and the others finally came to was a small space that was only a few meters square.
And inside this space, there is still a huge coffin in a regular manner, once again dividing the already small space, so that those who enter can only stand in the corner against the wall.
With the entry of Su Mu and Aiden, the representatives of the other three forces have obviously already been in place, and one of them has already introduced Su Mu bluntly:
"It's a coffin, and the coffin has some kind of ingenuity on it that can be opened, and based on the wear marks at the coffin opening, they should have opened it from time to time. ”
"And before you came here, we didn't dare to open the coffin alone, if everyone is ready now, we will open this coffin immediately!"
As this person's voice fell, all forces naturally nodded in agreement with this proposal.
So the investigator at the head had already cautiously pulled out the saber at his waist, and then gently touched the Karakuri structure on the coffin, allowing the coffin to slowly open with the sound of gears turning.
Although before the coffin was actually opened, everyone had already thought about the strangeness inside the coffin, but when the coffin was really opened in front of everyone, a bloody scene that no one thought of was like a sharp blade that slashed into everyone's mind, making everyone shrouded in deep horror for a while.
I saw that in the coffin in front of me, it was full of countless blood, and the blood itself was more like having a soul, constantly churning out twisted and hideous faces.
"It's ...... The blood of all the Drake family?"
I don't know who first shouted this slightly deranged sharp voice.
And with the sound of this voice, the countless blood in the coffin, as if it had sensed the opening of the coffin, actually surged on its own, as if it was about to overflow directly out of the coffin.
Fortunately, the person who opened the lid of the coffin earlier had already expected all kinds of abnormalities.
Seeing this, he didn't hesitate at all, and directly slapped the coffin lid back again, which stopped the blood from splashing out.
But although the blood has been re-imprisoned, the horror and suspicion in everyone's hearts are already like trapped beasts out of the cage, and they can no longer be restrained by any force.
"The so-called Drake family...... What the hell are they?"
