Section 24

PS: This incident has come to an end, but it is not over, can you guess what will happen next?

Hint, important main story.

---------------------------------

The sudden assassination, the murder of Loire, the cooperation of the city guards of Secca, and the personnel they contacted, there was no way to keep them secret.

However, Gray's guard office did not have a trace of information in this regard.

A chill lingered on the back of Gray's head for a long time.

It is the instinctive fear and fear of the unknown in the face of unknown dangers.

Gray even thought that if he hadn't had the magic that Thor had cast on him, he might be just a cold corpse like Loire now.

Then came the fall of his family.

There are so many people who can get benefits that they can't think about it.

Coupled with the threat of external orcs, this matter may be over.

Gray's mind was in turmoil right now, although he ruled a large part of the territory and had the title of Military Coordinator of the West, he was only in his early twenties after all, and he was in a terrible mood, he didn't even know what to do next.

However, there was one thing he knew, he had to make his voice heard by the rats hiding in the shadows.

The Elway family, which has been fully exposed, will face Gray's first round of anger.

The Earl of Lockton had said a few years ago when Gray had just been promoted to captain of the guard: "Necessary killings can make things easier."

Gray has a lot of problems right now, so he needs a killing to show the world that he is not afraid of anyone.

Baron Arthur's point of view was actually correct, Gray really shouldn't have been involved in this internal struggle at this time, but the problem now was that he wasn't going to be involved, he was already involved.

It's still a never-ending situation!

Although this is the case, Gray's anger did not let him lose his mind, although his thoughts were a little confused, but he could still understand the simple power relationship, and he could restrain himself.

He had to look at the big picture of the entire South.

Putting Baron Arthur in front and his own guard secretly investigating is the best way at the moment.

After all, the threat of external orcs is already imminent.

The current Seka City is too dangerous for Gray and must be transferred immediately!

Originally, Gray's original plan was to personally go to the front line to supervise the battle, and Sir Wright was in charge of the rear, but in the face of the weak rear supply lines in the south, Sir Wright obviously couldn't handle it, and his warrant was like waste paper in other territories.

In the end, Gray stayed in the rear, taking charge of the collection of supplies, and the front-line battle was entrusted to his captain of the guard, Baron Rainer, with the assistance of nobles such as Baron Duroux.

Now, all the work has been almost done, just waiting for the outcome of the negotiations between Baron Mura and Baron Carey, the prime minister of the court of the Grand Duke de Rooney.

So, it's time to get out of the city.

...

...

Zamba was immediately recalled from the slums by Gray.

Gray didn't want him to be in charge of the assassination, as Zamba had a special personal relationship with Lois, which would make him emotional when dealing with the case.

Of all the high-ranking members of Gray's security service, Wren was the most suitable person, as he was the most loyal to Gray and trusted him the most, but he was too incompetent.

The second is the Knight of Hamp, he is fair and meticulous, but he is now in Harrence City, and it will be too late for him to rush to Seka City, so he can only let Zamba check first, and the order to dispatch Knight Hamp has been issued.

Loire's body was parked in a hall next to the town hall, where Gray would prepare his cremation ceremony at dawn.

At this time, it was already past four o'clock in the evening.

In the originally quiet hall corridor, there was a sudden sound of dense footsteps.

Moreover, the sound is getting louder and louder.

"Bang!"

The door was violently pushed open.

The bright light of the fire reflected in the hall, and in the doorway was a tall, bald man, flanked by several of his retinue.

This is Zamba, who, after learning of Lowa's death, went straight here without even going to Gray's office to report on the progress of the mission.

He wanted to make sure that he wanted to see with his own eyes if his brother was really dead, and he didn't believe those people.

But when he did open the door to the room, his feet couldn't move away, and he stared at the figure lying quietly in the middle of the hall.

It wasn't until a few minutes later that Zamba spat out a mouthful of phlegm held in his chest, and strode towards the corpse in the middle of the hall.

The light of the fire drew closer and closer, and the darkness and coolness around it spread out in all directions.

Finally, Zamba saw who the person lying there was.

Familiar faces.

It was his brother - Lois.

"Damn it!"

Zamba smashed his fist at the coffin, smashing it with a "bang".

"Your Excellency—" one of the attendants tried to say something.

"Shut up!" Zamba snorted, interrupting his subordinate's well-intentioned advice.

Zamba kept saying in his heart: Why is this happening? Why is this happening?

He, Lowa, and Cyberpunk, after accidentally discovering that secret a few years ago, traveled to the South, believing that if there was turmoil in the continent of Alan, the southern border of the human kingdom should be the safest place.

But as it turned out, they were wrong, and they couldn't have been more wrong.

His eyes were blood-red, and the violentness was evident between his brows.

"Step, step!"

Sudden footsteps interrupted Zamba's memories, and several followers subconsciously gathered around Zamba, clutching their respective weapons with their right hands.

"My lord, the viscount told you to find him as soon as possible!" it was Gray's herald, and when he saw the movements of Zamba's entourage, he quickly stopped, and conveyed the order in a stiff tone at the door.

...

...

"Take your people, follow Baron Arthur, and go to the Elway family's manor to arrest some people!" Gray didn't have too much nonsense with Zamba, he waved back left and right, and said in a low voice: "Baron Elway can't be fine, he is the key person, you should understand, right?"

Zamba said in a deep voice: "Understood!"

"As for the others...," Gray's eyes grimaced, "if there's nothing of value, you can just watch and deal with it, so that the other families know that we're determined!"

"I'll take it seriously!" the murderous intent in Zamba's eyes was about to be uncontrollable.

Gray nodded, walked to the window, and stared at the busy crowd below, "As soon as the morning dawns, Sir Loire's cremation ceremony will begin, don't be late!"

Zamba also looked out the window, it was still dark outside, only a little firelight, and he couldn't help but secretly say in his heart: Why is the night so long tonight!

"When the ceremony is over, I'll leave, the logistics are pretty much dealt with, the battle on the front line is on the verge of breaking out, I must rush back before the orcs attack Bien City on a large scale, the soldiers there need me even more!"

Gray said slowly, in a flat tone.

Zamba was a little strange, he didn't understand why Gray was telling him this.

"This assassination, no matter who is involved, must be investigated..."

After a moment of silence, Gray turned his head and stared at Zamba, "Lova is not only your brother from the mercenary days, he is also my chief military advisor, do you know what that means?"

"Yes, my lord, I understand!" Zamba subconsciously lowered his head in the face of Gray's gaze.

Gray returned to his desk, "Don't do anything first, let our people investigate in the shadows, there are things that can put Baron Arthur at the forefront, he is more useful than any of your spies." ”

Zamba nodded, and Gray continued, "I've sent Knight Hamp over to assist you...... No matter what difficulties we encounter, this case must be investigated, because this is related to the future of our Harrence Territory!"
