Chapter 504 The most reasonable devil(4/4)
Such a frantic challenge to the authority of the ruling class naturally aroused the anger of the entire kingdom.
The nobles immediately united and elected a spokesperson to take charge of this matter, vowing to make the perpetrators pay with blood.
But it was only the next day that the bloody heads of the elected spokesperson and his family were placed next to the pillows of the nobles who shouted the loudest.
You don’t need to ask to know that waking up early in the morning and seeing a bloody human head has a huge mental impact on a person.
It is said that many people suffer from mental illness because of this, locking themselves in a house without windows every day, and dare not go out for several days in a row.
Instantly!
The country fell into silence from top to bottom.
It seems that everyone has selectively forgotten the previous clamor, even the king himself and his princes vying for power are no exception.
After all, anyone who is not a fool will understand that if these vicious gangsters can place their heads next to the pillows of the most powerful nobles in the kingdom, it means that the other party has the ability to chop off the head of anyone, including the king, at any time.
In order not to provoke the other party to go to extremes and cause a bloody storm, the best way now is to deal with it coldly, and then privately send trustworthy people to investigate, find ways to contact them, negotiate with them, and reach a series of agreements.
Seeing how the originally aggressive nobles were now frightened, Lana, the pride of the royal family and known as the Golden Princess, flashed a trace of disdain that was difficult to detect in her eyes.
She has always shown herself to be beautiful and intelligent, but her heart is actually extremely dark and crazy, and she doesn't care about the life and death of the royal family or even the entire country.
Quite the opposite!
Lana hopes that the mastermind behind this massacre can continue their efforts, preferably by killing all the nobles and their stupid brothers.
In this way, she can be crowned queen by right of succession and do whatever she wants with the kingdom as her toy.
As for what kind of demands the other party will make and whether they have to betray the interests of the kingdom, the princess doesn't care at all.
After returning to her palace after the royal meeting, Lana immediately met with the members of the "Blue Rose" adventure team.
As soon as they met, she couldn't wait to ask: "How is it? Have you got any results from the investigation?"
As the captain, Laisi nodded with a solemn expression: "Yes, there are results. Based on our repeated inspections of the scene and surroundings, we can basically confirm that this matter was done by a group of powerful assassins.<
/p>
There are not many people on the other side, only about three to five people.
With their incredible stealth skills, they were not discovered by anyone during the entire process, and the victim did not even see who the other party was before he died.
According to the wounds on the corpse, all attacks are launched from behind and kill with one blow, even those warriors and knights with good strength are no exception.
I asked Tia and Tina, and they both said that at least they could never do this."
"Could it be done by Eight Fingers?"
Lana deliberately pretended to be nervous and asked.
Before Lax could speak, Evileye, who was wearing a mask next to her, immediately shook her head: "No way!
If Eight Fingers had such strength, they would have already infiltrated the nobles and controlled the entire kingdom through threats and intimidation.
But they just killed some notorious nobles and took away all the valuable things.
The only thing that I can't figure out is why the other party only robbed the wealth of a few nobles despite having such powerful power?
With their strength, as long as they reveal their identity, I believe that no matter which country they are from, they will spend a lot of money to recruit them."
"In other words, unless the other party shows up on their own initiative, the possibility of us finding them is extremely slim?"
Lana frowned and leaned forward slightly.
Those who didn't know better thought she was worried about the turbulent kingdom, but they didn't know that she was actually worried about how to get in touch with the other party.
"That's right. Even if we collide head-on, with our Cang Qiangwei's strength, it is impossible to leave the other party behind.
Compared to this matter, I think we should pay more attention to the Tob Forest of E-Rantel.
According to the information sent back by the Adventurer's Guild, there seems to be a terrifying anomaly there, and the support of senior adventurers is urgently needed.
I heard that the monsters and beasts over there are almost extinct.
It is suspected that a powerful monster was born deep in the forest."
When she said these words, there was obvious tension and worry in Laisi's tone.
Because recent events seem to indicate that something earth-shattering is about to happen soon.
In fact, her concerns are correct.
While several people were talking, Old Bones and his Great Tomb of Nazarick had quietly arrived.
