Chapter 13 The Invisible Hand(1/2)

Chapter 13 Invisible Hand

While Doctor Chen was there, he was giving Su Leng all kinds of brainstorming.

In the royal study, after hearing other imperial doctors confirm that Su Ling had been poisoned, the old emperor was finally completely furious!

Although he didn't like Zhou Mingyi, a son who had embarrassed the royal family, he was still his son after all, and he was a member of the royal family!

Someone dared to poison a member of the royal family. This simply means that the Zhou royal family does not take them seriously!

"Immediately spread the word that Song Renfeng has come to the palace to see me!"

The old emperor immediately ordered someone to summon Song Renfeng, the number one investigative expert in Zhou Dynasty, to enter the palace.

Soon, Song Renfeng obeyed the summons and entered the palace.

The old emperor also immediately issued an order, giving Song Renfeng full authority to investigate the case thoroughly, and gave seven days to conclude the case.

At the same time, in the palace, the news that the Thirteenth Prince was poisoned with "Ganqing Poison" spread quickly...

"Have you heard? The thirteenth prince in the palace was poisoned and murdered!"

"What?! No! Who is so bold as to dare to murder the prince! And he is still in the palace!"

"Who knows, I heard that they used 'Ganqing poison', a highly toxic poison that can cause intestinal tract rupture in just one cup of tea!"

"Then the Thirteenth Prince is dead, isn't he?!"

"Who says it's not the case? I heard that the Prince's Pavilion is already full of white horses!"

"Hey, what I heard is that the Thirteenth Prince was lucky enough to be lucky enough to be saved by taking the antidote pill in time?!"

"Who did you listen to?"

"A friend of mine in the palace..."

All kinds of whispers and rumors about this matter instantly filled all walks of life in the capital.

As the saying goes, good things never go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles.

That's probably true.



Capital City, Eight Princes' Mansion, Study Room.

In a room filled with the aroma of books, a man in his thirties, dressed in fine clothes, was sitting at the desk, looking thoughtfully at the books in his hands.

This man is none other than the current Eighth Prince, the owner of the Eighth Prince's Mansion, Zhou Mingcheng!

Of course, this is his identity in this world.

In fact, this person is a "Super Dimension Killer" player whose game ID is "Fire Ya Soaring to the Sky" and whose real name is "Li Wenfeng"!

Just now, the intelligence officer he had trained as the eighth prince reported to him the detailed situation in the palace and stood up to leave.

Thinking about the intelligence officer's report, he couldn't help but feel a little strange: "Is this the level of players whose game ratings exceed mine?"

His last game rating was B grade, and his average game rating across all games was almost at this level.

To be honest, this achievement actually counts as a high-end player in "Super Dimension Kill"!

After all, this game has been in operation for a short time, and there was no publicity in the early stage. It was not until word of mouth spread after the public beta that it gradually became known to people.

Nowadays, most players are actually at level E, and level D is considered a master.

Therefore, when he entered the game and saw that the game information showed that the average player level of this game was D level, he immediately realized that this game might have A level players with a higher level than him!

It is impossible for his B-level game rating to raise the average game rating of this player so much.

——As for S-level players, he didn’t dare to think about it because he had never encountered one yet.

The game "Super Dimension Kill" is different from other traditional games. It is impossible to check the game ratings of other players, and there is no ranking list, which is very strange.

But it’s really fun.

Li Wenfeng didn't delve too deeply into it. He was not a professional gamer, just a streamer. As long as the game was fun, he didn't care about the rest.

However, this player who was suspected to have a higher game rating than him was actually poisoned by his tentative poisoning, which he did not expect.

But soon, he felt that it was reasonable.

After all, the "Transposition Card" was a rare item that he had obtained with great difficulty in that life-betting game. It could quietly transfer the items in his own hands to the target's hands, so it was really hard to detect.

Who would have thought that the first glass of water you drink after entering the game would be poisonous?

Therefore, this result is both unexpected and reasonable.

He was not surprised that the other party could survive. After all, he was a player with a higher rating than him and must have some rare props that he didn't know about. In addition, the poison he used was a native poison of this world, although it was already known as

It's the most poisonous, but after all, it's still not that immediate.

"It would be great if we could get some poisons like cyanide, but unfortunately, I don't know the relevant refining knowledge, and I don't have enough time."

Li Wenfeng shook his head regretfully.

If there is cyanide, a highly toxic substance, why would it be so troublesome to use?

But it's a pity that he doesn't have professional knowledge about cyanide. Secondly, he has only been in this game for a short time. He can use the resources at his hand to find out the identity information of the princes who participated in the fight for the heir in this game.

My own situation and the current situation are already pretty good.

Any more would be a bit out of balance for the game.

By then, I'm afraid it will be his turn to be the last to enter the game.

"Forget it, this result is already very good. Although the opponent was not eliminated, it can still be considered disabled. We can just find another opportunity to kill him later."

Li Wenfeng didn't think any more and began to focus on reading the book in his hand.

He also discovered early on that the best way to maximize the benefits of each game is to learn as much as possible in each game and transform it into improving one's own attribute panel.

Therefore, he also focused on learning whenever he had time.

Just because of the poisoning incident, the capital will probably be in a state of chaos in the next few days, making it difficult to act rashly.

So, instead of wasting time, it is better to focus on learning something.

With this idea in mind, Li Wenfeng plunged into the books in the palace and concentrated on learning the various skills and martial arts that might exist in them.

Just like that, five days passed in a flash.

On this day, after Li Wenfeng finished his breakfast, he came to the study again.

Recently, he found a breathing method in his study, and after practicing it for five days, his physical strength increased by 0.01!

This made him overjoyed.

The game time limit of this game is one year in the copy. According to the 24:1 ratio between the game and reality, it is fifteen days in reality.

Apart from eating, drinking, and eating in real life, plus the fighting and competition in the game, he still has at least two hundred days in the game that he can use to practice this breathing method.

Five days is 0.01, fifty days is 0.1, and two hundred days is 0.4. One game can increase the physical strength attribute in the attribute panel by 0.4, which is already very good!

Therefore, Li Wenfeng has been practicing particularly hard these days.

However, this time, he started practicing not long after he came to the study.

Sudden!

A burst of noise came from the courtyard outside.

Li Wenfeng, whose peace was disturbed, frowned and stood up to go out and scold him.

But before he could get up, the door to the study room was pushed open with a loud "clang", and a man wearing an official uniform, an official hat, a long beard, a righteous temperament, and a team of guards with knives came in.

Come in.

Then, I heard this man shout: "Eighth Prince, I am Song Renfeng. I have been ordered by the Emperor to thoroughly investigate the case of the poisoning of the Thirteenth Prince. I came here this time because I suspect that you are related to the poisoning and murder of His Highness Thirteenth Prince.

Please come with us!"

After hearing this, Li Wenfeng looked confused.

how come……

He was confused not because of the crime, but because Song Renfeng was confused in front of him. How did the other party find out about him...



One day later.

Imperial Palace, Imperial Study Room.

Song Renfeng stood in front of the desk, waiting with neither humility nor arrogance.

The old emperor, full of royal authority, sat in front of the dragon chair, reviewing the closing submission submitted by Song Renfeng. His face was neither sad nor happy, and it was hard to tell what kind of mood he was feeling.

After a while, the old emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty slowly raised his head, looked at Song Renfeng, frowned and said: "Song Aiqing, are you sure that this case was really committed by the eighth prince?"

He originally thought that an outsider was poisoning the royal family, but it turned out that it was his eighth son who was trying to kill his thirteenth son.

Another royal scandal.

And it’s such a nasty incident of brothers killing each other!
