Chapter 325: Tracking
Lady Carrie passed through the partition wall of the fierce poison vine and saw a mist in front of her, she knew that this was the effect of Abel's isolation circle, and she also knew that it was very rude to disturb Abel now, knowing that this was the time for professionals to cultivate.
However, Grand Duke Edwina's order could not be disobeyed, and Lady Carrie put her hand on the isolation circle, and after a little mana output, she withdrew her palm, and if Abel was in the circle, she would know that someone was looking for him from the outside world.
After a while, the fog that isolated the magic circle began to dissipate, and a simple tent was revealed, and Abel walked out of the tent wearing a relaxed magic robe and holding an alchemy bottle in his hand.
"Carrie, what's the matter?" Abel's face was full of surprise, and the alchemy bottle in his hand also showed that he was disturbed.
"Abel, come with me, Grand Duke Edwina wants to talk to you through the contact circle. Lady Carrie was also a little embarrassed at this time, and said softly.
"Okay, I'll clean it up!" said Abel, raising the alchemy bottle in his hand.
Returning to the tent, Able couldn't help but be surprised by the decisiveness of Grand Duke Edwina, who thought that it would take a few days for the elves sent by Grand Duke Edwina to find them, and then several barons would testify to prove his innocence.
And now Grand Duke Edwina can directly prove his innocence by directly contacting the magic circle, of course, the so-called innocence.
Thinking of this, Able easily put away the alchemy bottle that he had made to make, turned around and walked out of the tent, and went to her tent with Lady Carrie.
"Ah!!!" A scream startled Abel and Lady Carrie, and they saw Lady Molly in loose clothes pointing at Abel and shouting.
"Molly, what's your name!" the other barons also came out of the tent, and at a glance they saw Abel, and couldn't help but look at Abel and Lady Carrie suspiciously.
"Don't even speak, Grand Duke Edwina is waiting for Bennett to reply!" Lady Carrie looked at several elven baroness, she knew what the following ladies were going to say after a long time, but she couldn't talk nonsense at this time, the contact circle in her tent was still open.
Hearing that Grand Duke Edwina was waiting for Bennett to reply, all the elf barons immediately did not dare to speak again, and Lady Molly covered the chest of her wide clothes with her hands and looked at Abel very vigilantly.
Able looked at the elven baroness a little speechlessly, as if the huge basin of water that had been brought for them today had made them relax a little too much.
Entering the tent of Lady Carrie, Abel saw the figure of Grand Duke Edwina in the contact circle, hurriedly stepped forward, bowed down and said, "Hello, Honorable Grand Duke Edwina!"
"Abel, I'm sorry to disturb you so late!" said Grand Duke Edwina with a smile.
"Venerable Grand Duke Edwina, what are you looking for me?" Abel asked hurriedly when he saw that Grand Duke Edwina didn't say anything directly.
"It's nothing, it's just that I recently received news that an organization is going to assassinate you, so I specially asked Carrie to call you over, you must be careful recently!" Grand Duke Edwina said with a smile.
"Thank you, Venerable Grand Duke Edwina!" Abel bowed in thanks.
"You can rest too!" Grand Duke Edwina waved his hand, and the contact circle was disconnected.
Abel and Lady Carrie looked at each other, Grand Duke Edwina's words turned too fast, and this is the end of calling him up at night?
Unlike Abel, Lady Carrie really doesn't know anything, but Abel knows it, and now it's up to Grand Duke Edwina to deal with it.
In the city of Anjost, the Archduke Francisco, who was as silent as a volcano about to erupt, sat in the Grand Duke's palace, and next to him sat the Grand Duke Edwina, and the atmosphere between the two Grand Dukes was very tense.
"Edwina, how's it going?" Archduke Francisco finally spoke first, which lightened the atmosphere in the hall a lot.
"Francisco, you also know that Adolphus is too capable of causing trouble, and reports of the possibility of an investigation by my intelligence department are piling up!" said Grand Duke Edwina, gesturing to one of the Intelligence Service officers standing in the middle of the hall.
"Edwina, I want to know which elves are most likely to do this, this is your city, you just cleared my intelligence office here, so you can only check it out!" said Grand Duke Francisco in a low voice.
"I'll tell you, Francisco, but you must not do something irrational!" said Grand Duke Edwina softly.
"Edwina, Adolphus is dead, I can still sit here and talk to you, I've changed a lot!" Although Grand Duke Francisco is middle-aged, he is actually an old man among the elves, and at this time, because of the death of the heir, the development of Yobegro City for many years has suddenly lost its purpose.
"Well, Francisco, on the night of Adolphus's death, there were three elves on the island where he was, Adolphus, the butler and another elf who became obsessed, Adolphus and the butler died on the spot, and the other elf disappeared, this is what I know, if you want to know the latest news, you have to ask the intelligence department!" Grand Duke Edwina first said the most suspicious situation at the scene.
"What's the latest news, you say?" asked Grand Duke Francisco, unpolitely, pointing to the intelligence officer of Anjost City standing in the middle of the hall.
The intelligence officer of Anjost City first glanced at Grand Duke Edwina, and when he saw that she nodded in agreement, he bowed to Grand Duke Francisco and said: "Honorable Grand Duke Francisco, we have brought back the chauffeur of the elf who disappeared, the carriage is temporarily rented, and there is not much substantive information, but we have come to a conclusion after verifying the location of the lease, which is the residence of the Bloody Hand Guild!"
"I've seen Adolphus's corpse, a stab in the back and straight into the spine, poison and knife wounds are fatal, this is a typical assassin method, but Adolphus has a passive defense magic item I gave him, as long as it is attacked, it will be activated, and ordinary assassins can't kill him!" Archduke Francisco interrupted the intelligence officer, seemingly agreeing with the discovery of the Bloody Hand Guild, an assassin organization.
"Venerable Grand Duke Francisco, the Bloody Hand Guild has been captured by our Intelligence Division and the Sheriff, but there hasn't been much progress, and the news is that their leader has gone out at night and never returned!" the intelligence officer continued.
"Tell me about the leader of the Bloody Hand Guild!" Grand Duke Francisco commanded with a slight nod.
"Yes, Arvid, an elven warrior at the rank of Knight Chief, single-handedly created the Bloody Hand Guild, the largest assassin guild in Anjost City, because it is rare to commit crimes in Anjost City, so the sheriff has always acquiesced in his existence!"
In fact, not only Anjost City, most of the elves, human cities have assassin guilds, this kind of guild can help nobles deal with some things they don't want to interfere in, and the assassin industry cannot be completely banned, rather than let it live in the dark and unmanageable, it is better to be monitored in the open.
"Arved has a lot of combat experience, can use most of the elven weapons and human weapons, is good at assassination, and his most famous result is the assassination of a ninth-level wizard, so he has a high reputation in the assassin world! According to Arvid's portrait, the coachman has identified him as the elf who entered Prince Adolphus's villa!" the intelligence officer bowed and stood back in his original position.
"Find him, find his elves, and I will give him a million gold and a knighthood, as long as I find him!" the Grand Duke Francisco roared with a hideous face, and at this time he was already very suspicious that this Arvid was the murderer, or one of the murderers.
Grand Duke Edwina didn't say a word, she didn't intervene in the inquiry just now, with her understanding of the Bloody Hand Guild and Avid, even if she gave Avid ten guts, she would not assassinate Prince Adolphus, Arvid would only be interested in gold and power, and meeting Prince Adolphus was probably these two points that attracted him, and it would definitely not be Prince Adolphus's life, because it was not worth it.
Archduke Francisco's intelligence actually knew everything about Avid, but he knew more about how many gold coins his son Prince Adolphus had on him in the city of Yobegro, and perhaps it was that gold coin that made the old Assassin covet it.
