The morning after returning to Dumu, Fed was woken up in a daze. www.biquge.info After discussing all night yesterday, neither his subordinates nor himself deduced the truth behind the great change in the wedding banquet, and the captains of the entourage, who had been tired from several days of running around, also went to bed early and forgot about it for the time being.

It was Luka who woke up Fidel, who told him that Dokeley, the leader of the merfolk mercenary group, had returned to Dutree City, and that Maev, who was escorted back by him, had bypassed Dutree City and headed straight for Fontale City. Maeve also left a handwritten letter to Dockley for him to pass on to Fed.

"Fielder, I and Head Dokeley were left in the city of Evon for a day and a night, and were not allowed to leave the palace until the afternoon of the day after the tragedy of the wedding feast. During this time, the fire in the banquet hall had been extinguished, and most of the corpses of the guests were burned beyond recognition, and in retrospect, we were really lucky to have escaped alive.

The Duke of Oldington also met with all the escaped guests the next day and apologized to them. However, most of the guests comforted the Duke of Oldington in turn, because the person who had lost the most was the Duke of Oldington, who looked exhausted in front of us. The duke said that he would investigate the matter thoroughly as soon as possible, arrest the rebels and the spies hiding in the palace, prevent the evil forces from succeeding, and avenge the eldest son, Lord Luthers.

The other nations also left the city the next day, and all the guests sent by the Papal States were killed in the banquet hall, including the deputy head of the Church Order. Barry, the second senator of the Marvel Republic, was mortally wounded, but he and Barnes, the consul, immediately set off for their home the next day, and it was not known whether the aged senator would survive. The mission of the Kingdom of Cosai was unheard of, and Prince Walter, representing the Duchy of Deramain, remained in Evon City, claiming to assist the Duke of Aldington in dealing with the aftermath.

As for the rebel gang, it is said that most of the rebel members died in the chaos, and a few rebels took advantage of the chaos to escape, either caught by the guards or killed by the guards, and the life and death of the rebel leader Lutz is unknown.

Princess Margaret and Prince Jack are gone, and perhaps as Jack claimed that night, they would flee back to Winterland on fast horses. The Duke of Oldington did not mention this daughter-in-law who had fallen into the country and the city, and the others did not talk much about it.

I didn't hear your name mentioned until I left, and maybe it won't have anything to do with you again. On the contrary, the other mercenary groups that did not leave were left by the Duke and checked one by one.

I am afraid that the news of the tragedy of this wedding feast will spread throughout the continent in a few days, but it is difficult to determine how much truth will be revealed, and I can only tell you the information I have obtained to you, Fidel, and I will stay in Fontale City during this time, and send a letter to me if I need it, your friend, Maev. ”

Fett looked at the beautiful handwriting, and he suddenly realized that he hadn't washed himself yet, but the letter written by Maeve himself was really important, and he immediately handed it to Luca and asked him to deliver it to Vittorio.

After Fidel had breakfast, Vittorio took the letter and came to Fidel.

"Captain, do you think that woman named Meryl can be trusted?"

"Why do you ask this?"

Vittorio glanced out the window before he said, "As the person in charge of the dinner, this woman should be held accountable, but Meryl is not mentioned in the letter, which is very disturbing." ”

"Uneasy?"

"She and Captain Fed, you met on the night of the accident, and if the Duke of Aldington were to track down Meryl, we might be implicated in it. This matter is big or small, and if the Duke of Aldington announces to the outside world that we have had secret contact with the rebels' spies hiding in the palace, maybe..."

Fed recalls the meeting with Meryl and the mercenary guild president, "Do you think the mercenary guild president is more powerful, or is the Duke of Aldington more powerful?"

Vittorio was stunned, "Of course the head of a principality is more powerful. ”

"No, I don't think much, that person who claims to be the president of the mercenary union is in charge of the nine most powerful mercenary groups on the mainland, since he claims to be not a mercenary, what could his identity be?"

Vittorio glanced down at his shoes and said, "Maybe a merchant, someone like Ufus... It could also be an aristocrat like Lutz. ”

"His true identity is definitely not a simple guild president, otherwise it would be impossible to suppress so many powerful and unruly mercenaries," Fielder said his thoughts, "Since Meryl is his subordinate, even if the Duke of Oldington wants to pursue Meryl, the Duke will encounter resistance from the mercenary union, if you are worried about implicating us because of Meryl's affairs, I don't think there is any need for this." ”

"Let's hope so, if it is found that we have taken Leon, the former leader of the rebels, and are suspected of being complicit in the tragedy of the wedding feast, it will be troublesome..."

Fidel noticed the subtle change in Vittorio's expression, the other party was obviously not simply worried about the safety of the potato mercenary group, he had some other concerns.

In the afternoon of the same day, Newt, the spy teacher, sent someone to deliver a secret letter.

As Fid expected, the people at the Peace Graves Military Academy had apparently learned of what had happened in Evon City, and Newt told Fid in a confidential letter asking Fid to increase his surveillance of Vittorio during this time. He also said that there will be major changes within the rebel army in the short term, and the specific reason is related to the conspiracy planned by Lutz. However, Newt did not mention any information about Leon in the secret letter, and the other party was like a boss who gave the job to the workers, and some remuneration was also sandwiched in the secret letter.

The "Black Flash" that Fidel wore on his body was cut by Toya's Blue Flame Sword, and the parts that had been burned by the Blue Flame became a little gray and gray, making the "Black Flash" no longer a completely black plate armor. Fidel hired several blacksmiths from the city, all of whom said that it would be impossible to restore them completely, because the enchanted weapon could only be repaired by the blacksmith who forged it, and they had to dye the gray-white sword marks to make them less ugly.

Fed didn't take the blacksmith's suggestion, and he touched the slightly dented sword marks with his hand—the enchanted plate armor had been given to him by his father, and he couldn't help but take it off and hang it on the wooden frame with the promise that it would be returned intact. After the fierce battle in the Iron Ore Mountains, Feder thought about hanging the "Black Flash" and choosing a black plate armor to replace it, but in the end, Feder could not get rid of his dependence on the "Black Flash". Now that the Black Flash has been damaged significantly, and if you continue to wear it, it may cause indelible wounds, which is nothing more uncomfortable for the self-respecting Fidel than making a promise but not doing it, even if it is the loss of the protection of the enchantment.

After much deliberation, Fed decided to suspend the "Black Flash" for the time being, and let the best blacksmith in the city create a black plate armor that was exactly the same as the "Black Flash" instead.

A few days later, the last day of the year 948 in the Old Kingdom calendar arrived, and with it came the news of the tragedy of the wedding feast in Evon City, which had been called the "blood feast" by the civilians - several versions of the wedding feast had been rumored, but fortunately, Fielder had not heard any versions of himself and his mercenary group.

The earliest version that appeared was that "the rebels plotted to destroy the wedding feast, and the younger brother killed the elder brother in order to seize power", and this version was listened to by most of the people, and some people even began to deny the army because of this incident. Most civilians think that guest etiquette is very important, and even if there is any grievance, they should not take revenge on the host as a guest, not to mention the warmth and generosity of the Duke of Aldington, and the young and promising of Lord Luthers are all well-known to the civilians of the Three Duchy, such a conspiracy naturally made the rebels lose the hearts of the people.

Another version is quite dramatic, and it is rumored that the leader of the rebels, Rutz, killed his brother Luthes at the wedding banquet in order to rob Margaret, the first beauty in the mainland. Originally, Margaret, the ice princess of the Winter Kingdom, was still young and was not well known to the people of the mainland, but after this incident, many people deified Margaret's beauty, and even called Margaret a disaster, and whoever married her would be unlucky, and even the bishop who blessed her was unfortunately killed.

This argument that all the blame is placed on a woman has been shared by many men in power, but this argument has not been convinced by most of the public, because the news also includes that the former rebel leader Leon has been asked to be released by Lutz.

The news of Leon's release and Leon's death in the fire came out at the same time, and as soon as the news reached the Duchy of Magini, some of the rebels who had been hiding in the secret base went to the nobles of the Duchy of Magini and surrendered. As Vittorio said, there was a faction of leaders in the rebels, who only obeyed and trusted Leon. Regardless of the current version of the Blood Feast, it is revealed that the former leader of the rebels, Leon, has died in the conspiracy, and that the leaders have lost their spiritual support.

There are some other versions like "Jack's Conspiracy", "Majnini Principality Conspiracy", "Delamain Duchy Conspiracy", "Revenge of the Victims of Perverted Luthers"... And so on. But these rumors about the blood feast have all turned into rumors, and there is no evidence to support them.

The last version that circulated was so intriguing that even Winotki, who had brought the rumor to Fed, had a strange look on her face - it was as if to say that she had just eaten a piece of sour beef during a meal, and later found that the piece of beef had not gone bad, but that Luca, who was sitting next to her, thought the beef was sour.

"The two-in-one poison is this poison," Winoki brought three small bottles, one containing powder and the other two containing liquids, "and its corresponding antidote, it will be no problem to take any poison first, as long as you take the antidote before taking the other." If you are unfortunate enough to take two poisons at the same time, then taking the antidote in ten seconds may be saved. ”

"How do you know it's ten seconds?" Lukka asked.

"I guessed! I guessed from my experience with snake venom!"

"And where did you get this poison?"

"You're so slow... Now they are sold all over the streets, and these two poisons are originally medicines that can cure diseases, but they only need to be mixed together with a little mixing to become deadly poisons!"

The last version claims that both Lord Luthers and Duke Pobo were killed by the poison, and that the person who had the recipe for the poison was a doctor who had already lived in seclusion with his family, although there were people who witnessed the family living in the city of Doret, and that the doctor's family had been sheltered by St. Golia, although this was all hearsay.

"Although I don't believe this rumor either, some people are beginning to think that all this is a conspiracy hatched by St. Golia and the rebels, in order to create more strife on the mainland, so that the Theoguna Empire can have a chance to breathe, and the rebels can also profit from it. Patrick said, picking up the two vials of poison.
