Chapter 0204: Keller
Before the situation became clear, the result of the discussion between May Green and Ares Green was to wait and see what happened, and wait for the investigation team sent by the imperial capital to arrive. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The plans of the other forces in Qingyan City are similar to those of the Green Family.
For a while, Qingyan City returned to its former peace and tranquility, but everyone knew that this was just the calm before the storm, and maybe a terrible storm would break out at some point.
On the morning of the third day of May Green's return, the investigation team sent by the imperial capital arrived at Qingyan City on four cloud-covering larks.
Outside Qingyan City, the heads of the major forces who had already received the news gathered together, even Viscount Douglas, who had not recovered from his serious injuries.
Seeing four cloud-covered larks descending from the sky, Viscount Douglas took a few steps to meet them.
"I've seen all the envoys!" said Viscount Douglas with a happy smile on his face.
"I've seen all the envoys!" behind Viscount Douglas, the heads of the major forces in Qingyan City said in unison.
Although their strength was not weaker than the group of people from the imperial capital in front of them, in the face of these Golden Realm powerhouses who had been sent by Alexander VII to investigate the Dark Council, they had to maintain enough respect, even if it was only superficial respect.
"Well, you all know the purpose of our visit to Qingyan City this time, I won't say much nonsense, why don't we find a place to exchange the information we have?" said Keller, the leader of the investigation team, with a smile.
"I've already prepared the place, please come with me, envoys!" said Viscount Douglas.
Accompanied by the heads of the major forces in Qingyan City, Viscount Douglas led the investigation team sent by the imperial capital to a luxuriously decorated mansion in the city lord's mansion.
"Qingyan City is located on the border, there is no way to compare with the prosperity of the imperial capital, please be considerate of the envoys!" After the guests and hosts were seated, the maids brought cups of fragrant tea and snacks, and Viscount Douglas said with a smile.
"We're here to investigate the Dark Council, not to enjoy it, Viscount Douglas should tell me about how you were assassinated by a ghost assassin trained by the Dark Council!" Keller said with a smile.
"Yes!yes!," Viscount Douglas nodded repeatedly, and began to talk about how he had been assassinated a long time ago.
"That day I was invited by Cole, the leader of the Shadow Adventure Band, to a dinner party he hosted in his manor outside the city. On the way back, I was assassinated by a ghost assassin cultivated by the Dark Council, and if it weren't for the fact that I had a little more life-saving magic trinket, maybe before I could kill that assassin, that assassin would have killed me!"
Remembering that day he had almost died under the assassin's knife, Viscount Douglas had a palpitation on his face.
After the name of the Xinghai Grocery Store spread in Qingyan City, he immediately exchanged a large amount of materials for more than a dozen magic ornaments from Fei Lun, the magic in these magic ornaments are all defensive magic and healing magic, and they are all the kind of magic ornaments that do not need to be actively activated, as long as they can provide enough energy, they will automatically activate the magic if they meet the set conditions.
It was with the protection of these magic ornaments that Douglas was able to save a small life in that assassination, and he also killed the assassin, but the price paid by Viscount Douglas was not small, the magic crystal and magic core he carried with him were all consumed, and the fighting energy in his body was also consumed, just like that, he was also seriously injured, if it wasn't for the timely treatment of the guards around him, maybe he would have died a long time ago.
"Envoy, I swear, the ghost assassins cultivated by the Dark Council have absolutely nothing to do with me. I invited not only the lord of the castle but also a lot of people to the dinner that day, if the envoy doesn't believe it, feel free to investigate!" Cole, the leader of the Shadow Adventure Group, said hurriedly.
He didn't want the envoy to think that the assassination of the lord had something to do with the Shadow Adventures.
"My lord, Cole is right, I was there at the dinner that day!" said Eco, the leader of the Scorpion Adventure Band.
"I also attended the dinner that day, but I had something to do and left early!" said Ryan George of the George family.
"Well, I know all the information you said, and as for whether what you said is true, I will send someone to investigate and collect evidence. It's not too early, we've been on the road for the past few days, and now we need to rest, so if you don't have anything to do, let's leave. Keller laughed and gave the crowd an eviction order.
"Envoys, rest well, we're going to take our leave!" Ryan George was the first to leave.
The others also left one after another.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have arranged for servants to wait outside, and if you need anything, just give me an order!" Viscount Douglas said with a smile before leaving.
"Thank you, Lord Viscount!" Keller said with a smile, "Lord Viscount, this time you went to the ghost assassin cultivated by the Dark Council to assassinate you, do you have any suspicious targets? Didn't you find any clues related to the Dark Council? What kind of existence is the Dark Council, I think you should know very well, they failed to assassinate for the first time, and they will carry out the second assassination at any time, if you want to find out the traces of the Dark Council in Qingyan City as soon as possible, please don't hide any clues from us, it's best to tell us as soon as possible!"
"Lord Envoy, don't look at Qingyan City as a small city, but the forces are intertwined, I don't know how many people want me to be killed, so I don't know if the Dark Council took the initiative to trouble me, or if someone secretly colluded with the Dark Council, and then let the shadow assassins cultivated by the Dark Council come and assassinate me. Douglas smiled bitterly.
"I also know the horror of the Dark Council, in fact, I went to send someone to secretly look for the trace of the Dark Council as soon as I was assassinated, but unfortunately, there seems to be someone in Qingyan City who is covering for the Dark Council, and the people I sent out have just found a clue, and they are about to follow the vine, and they found that the clue was cut off, until now, I have not been able to find the trace of the Dark Council!"
"Although I didn't find any clues, I can provide you with some useful information, if you can't find any trace of the Dark Council, you can go to the Xinghai Grocery Store to find the boss there for help, as long as you can come up with enough payment, I think the owner of the grocery store may still help you!"
"I'll go to the Xinghai grocery store!" Keller said in a deep voice with a twinkle in his eyes.
"Now everyone go to rest, tomorrow morning, after breakfast, the three of you will disperse and investigate secretly in Qingyan City and the small towns near Qingyan City, and see if you can find any trace of the Dark Council!" Keller said to his companions after Viscount Douglas left.
"Yes!"
