Chapter 434: Things Gradually Change
Slow and unscheduled updates come and !!
====================================================================
Things seemed to suddenly go beyond what Picca had expected, and he frowned and looked down in thought. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Since the royals were divided into several tables, and Picaka, Bilica, and Rustlit Ward (plus Curris and Chito Isuzu, of course) sat alone at one table, the other royals were still immersed in the festivities and did not see what was going on at the main table. And some of the nobles who paid attention to Emperor Pica's table, although they saw the change in the expression on the face of His Majesty the Emperor, would not have imagined that the content of this was such a shocking custom.
Several guards were killed in the bathrooms of the palace, but none survived.
"Wait, what about Duke Henk?" Bigaca then remembered his target tonight - Duke Henk, a powerful nobleman, and he didn't know what the situation was now.
"Duke Henk was also one of the dead. The part of his injury was completely different from that of the others, and it was a direct piercing of the heart. But the other deceased ...... "The guard who was in charge of the report who came in a hurry suddenly stopped talking, and a cold sweat flowed.
"How did the other dead die?" asked Curris, who was sitting next to Bilica, who had always been in charge of hunting down the prisoners, now starting to feel a little uncomfortable. But since Her Royal Highness the Princess was nearby, he walked up to the announcement guard and asked in a very low voice.
"Without exception, the head was directly cut off, and the head was different. ”
"Hiss......" Curris gasped, and he frowned, just like Emperor Picca, "It's so cruel...... Did you leave any clues at the scene?"
"We've looked and we haven't found anything suspicious, except for corpses and bloodstains, and the tools in the bathroom are neatly arranged. So we also think it is very strange who can kill people in such a stealthy way without leaving a trace. Your Majesty, what do we need to do now? The guard asked Emperor Picca.
Duke Henk is dead, and tonight's goal is considered a success. As for the Sea Clan, whether there was an accident or not, it was harmless, but the key was that this mysterious person who suddenly appeared, what was his purpose? Is he here to steal the seal, or is he here to carry out other operations?
Emperor Picca had a lot of thoughts in his heart, but he couldn't think of a clear one after all, and the closest answer was that the other party's target was the independent necklace-shaped seal in the front row of the venue. So, he set his sights on the front-row exhibition seats, which had suddenly become extremely important.
His Majesty the Emperor asked again, "Have you reported the matter to the guards in the other passages of the Imperial Palace?"
"Yes, the subordinate has already told the chief of the guard the general situation, and he has led some of the guards to investigate at the scene of the deceased. ”
Emperor Picca nodded, "Maybe I should go there now and take a look?"
"No, Your Majesty, you can't leave here in a hurry. Rustriet Ward dismissed the Emperor's idea, "There is still a large group of nobles and officials here, and you are one of the most eye-catching people tonight, even if everyone's eyes are different, but once you leave, no one will not know." The more powerful figures in the Xili Empire are already concentrated here, and if you still need to leave, it is difficult to guarantee that these people in the venue will not fantasize about other things, in order to stabilize the situation here, Your Majesty, it is better for you to stay here. Even if I go, I should go, and I think it will have a lot to do with the things sealed. ”
"In that case, Master Ward, you can't go, so it's better to stay here and pay attention to the treasures. Picaca shook his head, "We don't know exactly how many are hidden in the shadows, and we don't know where they're lurking right now. Maybe they're planning to let one of you and me get out of here and make a surprise attack?"
"I'm ashamed, Your Majesty. Even if I cast a reconnaissance spell that encompassed the entire palace, I would not be able to find any trace of the enemy. Lathrette Ward sighed, she was actually shocked by this sudden event, the detection magic she had cast had no effect at all, but because the elegant habits of the past had penetrated into her mannerisms, it was not easy for ordinary people to see the real changes in her.
"Master, is everyone in this venue 'safe'?"
"It's all safe, I'm sure. The Sage replied in a low but affirmative tone.
"Then we can be sure that the enemy must be an unknown force from outside, and the greatest possibility is ......" Picca looked again at the royal treasure displayed in the empty space in front of the venue.
"So we're going to stay here and watch out for what might happen. Isuzu, you must protect Bilica's life, you know?"
Chito Isuzu looked solemn, "Don't worry, Your Majesty." For the sake of Her Royal Highness the Princess, even if it is necessary to sacrifice my life, I will definitely do it faithfully. I'm a Chito Isuzu who was born to protect Princess Bilica. ”
Hearing this, Bilika grabbed Chito Isuzu's hand tightly, "Don't say that this kind of thing is about to be separated, and things haven't developed to the worst." ”
"But I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm afraid of ......"
"Alright, you all stay here, I'll investigate the situation over there. Curris smiled heartily and stood up to the people at the table.
"Curris, I won't stop you, because it's your duty. The only thing I hope is that you don't take things lightly. You are the most outstanding investigator in my Sili Empire. Picaca smiled and reciprocated his trust in Curris. This trust was also shown by the Sage-sage.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I've been across a lot of this kind of bizarre incident. ”
After Curis finished speaking, he left the party hall with the guards who had come to report. Again, the people around him didn't pay much attention to these two people. How could there be a serious accident at this birthday party for Princess Bilika, which His Majesty the Emperor was present? This is the palace of the Emperor of the Cili Empire.
"Curries, I hope he's okay. Bilica had lost her appetite at this point, and just looked at Curris's back worriedly.
Chito Isuzu's tone softened very rarely: "Your Royal Highness the princess, just rest assured, he is Curis." ”
"Yes. ”
Wang Xiaoming, who was at the very end, that is, closest to the entrance door, saw Curis (and the guards in front of him) who was heading straight out of the door, and immediately asked, "What's wrong?" According to Wang Xiaoming's expectations, it must have happened that the "incident" had happened.
"The dead appeared in the bathroom, several guards, Duke Henk...... There is also a Sea Tribesman woman. Curris said a short sentence, his eyes exchanged with Wang Xiaoming, and then he ignored it and walked out of the passage.
"Sea Clan Woman, ......" is just the content of a sentence, a gesture of a look, plus the known situation, Wang Xiaoming already knows the process of the incident.
This guy is really ruthless, it's different from the past.
Wang Xiaoming rubbed the side of his forehead a little nerve-wrenchingly, he understood, but Gnavier next to him didn't understand at all, Ji Ya may have just guessed something.
"Xiaoming, what the hell is going on?"
Wang Xiaoming's four fingers slammed heavily on the table, "Don't you still understand? Several guards, Duke Henk and a Sea Clan, died in the bathroom. Of course, he didn't speak too loudly, and the volume was kept to a level that only the two girls could hear.
Ji Ya stared at Wang Xiaoming and said, "It was the guy you 'let go' out to do it, right?"
"How can the word 'put' be said as if I let a mad dog come out? Beware of other girls crying to you. ”
Judging from Curris's description and his expression, I think that if we let it go down, it may be more than just a mad dog. Jia didn't know where she got her confidence, and she intuitively spoke her mind.
"Honestly...... You're probably right. This time it seems a little unpleasant. Wang Xiaoming's expression was rarely solemn.
Then, his expression was instantly stunned.
"Oh no! I didn't say that Curris was an invulnerable. ”
Wang Xiaoming immediately rushed out of the party hall.
Curris, don't go too fast, you don't want to die!
For the aristocratic dignitaries in the venue, this was just an urgent move made by the guests because of their sudden internal urgency. Everything is safe and sound in their eyes.
