Chapter 300: Shock
For Leo, he won the bet and left when he got the bet, no longer caring about the mess in Venaya, no matter what the conspiracy was.
But for the rest of Venaya City, especially the Holy Blood Society, the victim of this robbery, troublesome things have just arrived, such as how they want to deal with Richard Weston, who is still unconscious.
Although Richard Weston was only a knight, not a hereditary nobleman, and his father was only a court nobleman without a fief, the problem was that the emperor of the French Empire trusted his finance minister very much, and could not do without his finance minister.
If the Holy Blood Society's handling of Richard Weston is not appropriate, then the newly restored and rebuilt port of Venaya may be rekindled with war, which is definitely bad news for the Holy Blood Society, which has already made the port of Venaya its home.
However, if Richard Weston were to be released like this, the prestige of the Holy Blood Society would probably be dealt a heavy blow, and it might even shake the foundation of the Holy Blood Society in Venaya Harbor.
All present were the high-ranking members of the Holy Blood Society, and they knew very well what the Holy Blood Society was able to establish and develop smoothly in Venaya Harbor. If the antique shop located so close to the Holy Blood Society's residence was robbed this time, and they found the murderer, but they didn't dare to do anything because the murderer was a powerful person in the French Empire, it didn't matter what other people would think of them, what mattered was what the supporters behind the Holy Blood Society would think of them was the most important thing.
For a while, the discussion in the room changed from how to find the murderer to how to deal with the current big trouble, and Leo, the meritorious man who helped the Holy Blood Society find the thief, became a troublesome figure in the eyes of the upper echelons of the Holy Blood Society. Some of these people knew about Leo, and at this moment they all raised their hands in favor of Leo's title of troublemaker, and the only thing that bothered them was that this time the victim became them.
While the people in the room were discussing, Fernando, who had left earlier, returned to the room, but he had a few more boxes in his hand.
After walking in, he did not give the bet in his hand to Leo, but deliberately bypassed Leo, walked to the conference table in the room, placed the boxes on the table one by one, and said loudly: "This is the bet I lost, two Wyzik items and the three skull bowls that were stolen this time." ”
The attention of those present was immediately drawn to Fernando's shouting, and they looked at the three boxes that Fernando had deliberately placed in their prominent seats.
Leo naturally knew very well what Fernando was thinking, he smiled rather disdainfully, ignored the eyes of everyone around him, walked directly to the table, stacked the boxes together, hugged them and prepared to turn away.
At this time, a high-ranking member of the Holy Blood Order with a pair of insect compound eyes suddenly spoke up and said, "Please wait, Your Excellency Leo Dodd. ”
"Is there something wrong?" Leo, who had long expected to be stopped, stopped, turned around and calmly looked at the family member who read the words.
The senior of the Holy Blood Society pointed to the three boxes containing the skull bowls, and asked knowingly, "The three skull bowls in Your Excellency's hand should be the items that were lost in our Holy Blood Society's store this time, right?"
"Yes. Leo didn't bother to deny or quibble, nodded directly in acknowledgement, and then asked rhetorically, "So what?"
"Shouldn't Mr. Dodd give us back what we have?" said another High Ranking of the Holy Blood Society, disliking Leo's tone.
Leo smiled, walked back to the table, put the box of the three skull bowls back on the table, and then glanced at the high-ranking members of the Holy Blood Society present with an extremely obvious contempt, and said, "The thing is placed here, if you think you have the face to take it back, come and take it!" ”
Hearing Leo say this, the high-level officials of the Holy Blood Society, who were originally going to step forward to take the box, also stopped, and all of them had gloomy faces, looking at the box with the same gaze as Richard Weston, all of them regarded this thing as a hot potato.
"Take it away, boy! A dark shadow flew out from behind a door, landed on the table, and said to Leo.
"Lord Raven. When the crow appeared, they saluted it.
Doris on the side also seemed to know the reputation of the Holy Blood Society's crow, and did not despise the other party because it was a bird, leading her subordinates to salute the crow.
Instead, Fernando looked at the raven as if it were something rare, and it was clear that it was a church creature like Richard Weston's black cat, and did not see it as an equal intelligent creature.
"Boy, I don't like your eyes, although you have the favor of that lady, but if you annoy me, even if that lady comes forward, it is useless. The crow threatened Fernando, who had a somewhat rude look in his eyes, and then without waiting for the other party to react, he turned his head and said to the upper echelons of the Holy Blood Society: "It seems that life here has made you all turn into soft mud beasts, and you don't have the ability to find stolen items and thieves, so you blame others for many things, and you have to take other people's spoils, do you still want to be embarrassed?"
The crow's angry voice made the people of the Holy Blood Society present feel an inexplicable pressure, and other people who were not directly targeted could also clearly feel the horror of the crow, but they didn't know what was terrible.
Only Leo can clearly understand that the power of the crow is the life level coercion of the inferior life forms by the pure upper life form, and the life forms that can produce this life level coercion are all high-level life beings who have evolved to the seventh level of psionic ability or above, which means that this seemingly ordinary coercion is almost the same as the True Eye that has been trapped for many years in terms of life level.
Leo was also extremely surprised by the high life level of the crow, although he had guessed the strength of the crow before, he definitely never thought that the crow would have such a high life level, if it was calculated according to this life level, the crow was almost a god in the world of Velon.
The crow had obviously not thought of his move to threaten the higher-ups of the Holy Blood Society, but he had exposed his details to Leo.
After reprimanding the Blood Order, it turned to Leo and said, "Take the things! ”
Leo didn't say anything, just picked up his things, turned and left the room, and after walking some distance, his always tense body relaxed a little.
Compared to others who could only feel the coercion of the black cat from the higher life forms, Leo felt more things, especially the coercion of this life form, which also had some effects on the throne blood in his body, he felt that the blood on his body seemed to turn into streams of lava and quickly shuttle and flow in the veins, and his mind became a little drowsy, as if he had a bad cold.
Sensing that something was wrong with his body, Leo couldn't help but speed up his pace, and after leaving the Holy Blood Society's residence, he walked towards the hotel he was in, because the poor state made him unable to use any witchcraft, not even running, and at this moment it was late at night, and there was not even a carriage on the street, so he had to take a shortcut and walk through some alleys.
"Damn!" Leo found that the scene before him began to shake as he walked down a path near the edge of the city, and all the five boxes he had carried in his hand that could not fit into the storage space fell to the ground, and his body seemed to have been drained of all his strength, and he had to lean against the wall next to him to barely stand on his feet.
At this time, a few street thugs who had just experienced a fight came from the opposite side, talking about how to beat people to death just now, and walked towards the alley where Leo was.
After these people turned the corner of the alley, they immediately saw Leo leaning against the wall, at first they were all given a piece of a tall figure that suddenly appeared, after all, in this city that is often haunted by families, there are some mysterious urban legends, and Leo is also regarded by these people as a character in an urban legend.
The frightened thugs pulled out their weapons one after another and looked at Leo vigilantly, but Leo had no way to react at the moment, and the only thing he could do was to lean against the wall to support his body.
"Damn, it's a drunk!" Seeing Leo staggering against the wall, and trying to support his body from slipping, one of the thugs made a mistake and muttered, and then boldly walked towards Leo, looked at Leo, and pushed Leo's body hard, although he couldn't push Leo, he could also feel that Leo was not threatening.
The other thugs also came up when they saw that there was no danger, and one of the shrewd thugs didn't smell any alcohol coming from Leo's body, and saw Leo's groggy appearance, and couldn't help but worry: "This guy can't help but worry: "This guy can't be sick, right? I heard that there is a plague going on in Miria City in the north, could this guy be a refugee who escaped from Miria City?"
"No!" everyone was startled and avoided Leo, although none of them had experienced the Great Plague, they had all grown up listening to horror stories about the Great Plague period, and the fear of the plague had long been in their bones, making them shudder just by hearing the word plague.
"Don't talk nonsense, if there was really a plague, it would have been discovered a long time ago. The daring bastard steadied his worries and comforted himself, but even though he said that there was no plague, he did not dare to approach Leo.
At this time, he found a few boxes under Leo's feet, and immediately said in surprise: "Look at those boxes?"
As he spoke, he took the lead in picking up two boxes, both of which were boxes for the skull bowl, and the others also picked up the boxes on the ground.
"The box is already so beautiful, and there must be something good in it. The daring bastard took advantage of the moonlight to look at the surface of the box, a look of joy on his face, and then as he spoke, he eagerly opened the box.
The others also stretched their heads over, and saw that a bowl-shaped item in the box showed a look of disappointment, and the bold thug took the skull bowl out of the box with some unwillingness, and looked at the box again, and when he found that there were no other items, he couldn't help but curse and say a few words.
"Did you hear anything?" said a few of the thugs as they were about to open the other boxes, when one of the thugs suddenly asked his companion.
The companion glanced at him and said, "What is the voice?" are you...... Hey, it seems to be some kind of sound. ”
Immediately afterwards, the others also said that they heard some sounds, which were like someone saying something in their ears that they did not understand, which made them feel upset, but the sound seemed to have some kind of magic, and they couldn't help but want to continue listening and immerse themselves in listening.
The thugs didn't notice that when they were completely immersed in the muttering sound, the blood vessels on their bodies seemed to be injected with a cloud of ink, starting from the nerve endings of their fingers and gradually spreading all over their bodies, and from a distance, it looked like they had a strange tattoo on their bodies.
When these black patterns spread to their heads, they also completely lost their humanity and sanity, their eyes were filled with blood, turned red, and they roared like wild beasts, but fortunately this place is in a remote location, surrounded by small factories with no people, so it did not alarm anyone.
And these thugs who need to vent their crazy thoughts in their chests, after not finding someone to vent, aim at Leo, and the thugs closest to Leo immediately rush towards Leo, and open their mouths, biting Leo's neck, as if using Leo as food.
However, before the thug could touch Leo's body, a hand grabbed his head and fixed him in the air, and the power of the palm was so great that no matter how hard the thug struggled, he couldn't break free.
And Leo, the owner of the palm, also seemed to be in some kind of abnormal state at this moment, his eyes completely turned black, and the psionic energy gathered into a stone throne above his head, and an invisible power emanated from his body, enveloping the surrounding gangsters who had gone crazy.
The suppression of life from higher beings has acted on these crazy gangsters, and even if they have all lost their minds now, the instinctive reaction from life still makes them have to lie on the ground under this invisible power, not daring to move.
"Hungry!" Leo looked at the thugs lying on the ground, with no expression on his face, just a word, and then opened his mouth slightly.
The moment he opened his mouth, all the thugs in front of him were aging rapidly, and in less than a minute, they were already too old to be human, as if life had been sucked away by Leo, and in the end, they turned directly into dust and scattered on the ground.
At this time, Leo did not seem to be satisfied, he turned his head and looked in the direction of the center of the city, where countless lives seemed to fill his belly.
But when he was about to step out, he suddenly stopped, his body was as motionless as a stiff stone, and after a while, he was heard to let out a long breath of turbidity, leaned against the wall again, stood up straight, and his original inky eyes had returned to normal.
