Chapter Eighty-Three: The Death of Zielingers
After "handing" Miss Justice's description to the hanged man and Gawain, Crane tapped on the bronze table, silently thinking.
"It shouldn't be a big problem, Duke Negan is the biggest nobleman outside the royal family, the elder behind the Conservative Party.
"There must be no shortage of high-ranking officials and dignitaries among the people attending the ball today, and if there is no strong extraordinary person to protect it, I don't believe it first, and Ziringus is the second.
If it weren't for that, he wouldn't have had to pretend to be involved.
"With Gawain's reminder, Miss Justice and Mr. Hanged Man will definitely be prepared in advance, so things shouldn't get too serious."
Crane figured it out, and he put the matter behind him, he couldn't do anything more anyway.
He picked up the Flame Strike that had been placed on the bronze table, and began experimenting with the magical object with great interest.
......
Beckland, Queens, Duke Negan's House.
"Bang dang!"
The sound of dancing music coming from the villa was interrupted by the sound of glass shattering, which stood out in the midst of this splendid building.
Zielingus smashed through the window of the bay belly window and ran out of the house at great speed.
"Damn, Pallas Negan is actually an extraordinary person with a high rank, and there are many extraordinary people ambushing me, this is a trap!" He was secretly resentful, not understanding how his plan had been revealed.
He had always believed only in himself, and had never told anyone about the assassination plan.
Duke Negan has been holding meetings for several councils in September.
Chillingers didn't understand how anyone could have known that they would come to assassinate him today.
A hurricane circled around him, and with the help of the wind, he flew a short distance out of Duke Negan's mansion.
As soon as his feet hit the ground, Zilingers immediately ran to the woods opposite, a municipal park that he had already surveyed the nearby terrain.
As long as he gets rid of the tracking behind him, he can change his appearance and blend in with Beckland's population of more than five million.
This is also the reason why he dares to take on difficult tasks!
In a shadow in the municipal park, Gawain stood quietly, watching the desperate escape of Ziringus not far away.
His home is just outside Queens, not very far from Duke Negan's House, which is why he came so quickly.
Of course, Gawain didn't come here first to stop Ziringus' escape.
On the contrary, he even wanted to give Ziringus a boost to make him run a little faster.
Because in Gawain's plan, Ziringus had already been arranged clearly.
The only thing he wasn't sure about was whether he would be able to get the "wriggling hunger".
Gawain looked sideways at Duke Negan's palace, where a sudden gust of wind arose.
Along with the wind came none other than Ace Snake, the dove of the gods, and several other substitutes.
The dark blue hair of the upside-down hanged man stood out among them, and Gawain recognized him at a glance.
"Tsk, this time Mr. Snake still didn't catch up, isn't this some kind of law of cause and effect?" Gawain said to himself playfully.
He took a step, turned and walked away.
Gawain's main purpose in coming here was just to make sure that Ziringus could escape without any problems.
After his goal was achieved, it was natural for him to leave.
Of course, this Lieutenant General will not survive tonight.
Because in front of him, there is a big boss waiting for him.
......
"Spread out and chase after you, and try to contain." Cardinal Ace of the Storm Church. Snake commanded, and soared into the air in a sudden hurricane, flying in the direction of Ziringus's escape.
Nobles such as Duke Negan did not join the ranks of the "substitutes", they took their own identities and stood by the window or balcony to watch.
Alger. Gritting his teeth, Wilson ran out of Duke Negan's mansion and around the opposite municipal park to the Hilston district.
He didn't expect the nobles to be so wasteful, and in the case of setting up an ambush, they actually let Ziringos run away.
And he himself was unlucky.
When Alger ran back to the church to report to Cardinal Ace Snake, he learned that he had gone for a walk along the Tasok River.
He had no choice but to spend a lot of time looking for this Excellency.
If it weren't for that, Alger thought he would have been able to stop Ziringus in time to prevent him from escaping.
Alger fought hard to catch up, and even if there was only a glimmer of hope, he didn't want to give up.
But soon, he heard the voice of Lord Ace Snake being carried by the wind:
"No need to catch up."
Alger ran to where the cardinal was, but saw something horrifying.
He saw that Ziringus's face was rotting rapidly, rotting to the point of yellow-green pus, rotting to the point that flesh and blood were falling one by one.
In the end, Zilingers completely fell apart, and died in front of Alger in an extremely strange way.
......
Inside the Duke Negan's Palace.
Earl Hall found his wife and daughter, who were discussing the assassination of Eucalyptus with the noble ladies, and then winked at her.
Audrey understood, found a reason to leave her mother, and went to the balcony of the hall outside.
"Dad, what's the matter?" Audrey looked at Count Hall with emerald eyes.
Her childlike nature was inherited from her mother, not her father.
Earl Hall chuckled and soothed his daughter:
"It's settled, my child, you don't need to worry anymore."
"By the way, did you tell anyone else that Baron Gramiel was pretending?"
"Nope." Audrey naturally resolutely refused to admit it.
Count Hall didn't doubt this, either, for he didn't think that his good daughter would have anything to do with someone extraordinary who could easily kill Ziringus.
He tells Audrey that Ziringus has been killed by an unknown Extraordinary Person or Force, and that his bounties in various countries add up to a total of 30,000 pounds.
If no one later declares responsibility for the killing of Zilingers and takes the initiative to collect the bounty, the 30,000 pounds bounty will belong to Audrey.
In addition, in order to show his gratitude to Audrey for saving her life, Duke Negan also promised to give her a vacation estate worth 10,000 pounds or more.
After listening to this, Audrey's first reaction was that the extraordinary powerhouse who did it must have something to do with her own tarot society.
It shouldn't be Mr. Hanged Man, otherwise he wouldn't have made this commission before...... Mr. Power doesn't look like that, except for one analysis of the information, he has always shown little interest in this matter...... Then it must be Mr. Fool's Scroller, worthy of Mr. Fool, really mysterious and powerful...... Audrey thought with some excitement.
