Lord of War
63. Preparations before the Fighting Festival
Sean Connery, the Duke of the Void, was assassinated in Earl's Square just a dozen days after he was appointed.
The entire King Ryan was instantly sensational.
This is not only contempt for imperial power, but also contempt for the entire aristocratic circle.
Overnight, the defense level of the capital increased several levels, and even the guards responsible for the security of the Lane County Palace were mobilized to patrol the streets of the capital, and any suspicious persons were allowed to be directly arrested. Almost after this day, the security problem, which was already very good, reached a higher level in an instant. It is not an exaggeration to say that the house is not closed at night.
As for the Rosean Guild Hall, it was also ordered to suspend business for rectification on the day Xiao En was assassinated.
Although someone reported the death of Robert the businessman that day, compared with Sean Connery, the Duke of the Void, no one cared about the cause of the businessman's death. Although it sounds ironic, it is the truth In the eyes of many big shots, the life and death of a businessman can't be compared with that of a duke, so they just arranged more people to investigate the matter thoroughly.
But soon, the investigators responsible for investigating the truth about the death of the great businessman Robert encountered unprecedented obstacles.
Their leads are broken.
From the time and location of Robert's death, and contacting Seiya's pursuit distance, all the way to the south door of the Rosaan Guild Hall, the investigators found some clothing fragments left in the shadowed corner of an alley, which seemed to have been taken by the alley. A nail caught in the torn off. In this way, it was naturally proved that there were indeed assassins who changed their costumes and left here. In a sense, they could indeed prove that Seya, the bodyguard of the Rosean Guild Hall, was not the assassin who attacked Duke Sean.
Everything is just a trap prepared by someone with a heart.
However, none of the investigators dared to announce this fact.
Because no matter what, it is an obvious fact that the Rosean Guild Hall has been thoroughly investigated and temporarily closed. No one is sure if this is another political struggle. If not, it’s okay to say. If it is, then if they announce the result, if the layout of some big man is broken, then they will definitely be in trouble. Walk. Of course, the most important point is that the clue of the assassin they were looking for was broken at this point.
In this way, the hard-won results can prove that Seiya is not an assassin, but it looks like it was deliberately arranged here.
The capital of Ryan King seemed to be suddenly covered in a haze, and there was a bit of panic.
However, Sean Connery, who wrote, directed, and acted in such a big drama, is still busy with his own affairs. In fact, he is not ignorant of external affairs. In the past two days, since the Ryan royal family first expressed their sincere condolences and sincerity, almost all the nobles in the entire royal capital—whether they are nobles in Senai or The nobles outside the Great Wall sent special personnel to send gifts to express their condolences, and some small families even the patriarchs came in person.
Looking at the entire history of Ryan for hundreds of years, there are no more than five people who can enjoy such an honor.
It's just that Sean is very clear that Ryan needs him to win the silver and gold championships in the individual competition of the martial arts festival, so he is so nervous about himself. If he didn't have this strength and background, I'm afraid the royal family of Ryan would just give a few casual condolences at most, so how could he give himself many treasured secret medicines?
don't say anything else,
The various gifts received in these two days alone are worth more than five million.
For Sean, this is undoubtedly another extra income.
Of course, by the way, he also solved all his so-called minor troubles. The apparent person in charge of the Rosean Guild Hall, the so-called president, was nodding and smiling in front of Xiao En. The gifts he brought were not the best, but they obviously had inquired about Sean's preferences, so the things he brought were very suitable for Sean's current needs, and the total value was about 300,000. Various forging, alchemy, magic materials.
"Lord Sean, I'm really sorry about the matter about Seya!" The president of the Rosean Guild Hall said respectfully, "I really didn't expect that he would be a spy arranged by the Dabion rebels. "
"Oh." Sean raised his brows, "Have you investigated it thoroughly?"
"Yes." The president looked up at Sean, and swallowed after seeing his raised eyebrows, "It has been officially found out that Seiya is indeed from Dabion, and we are in his residence. A lot of correspondence with the Dabion rebels was also found. It is now certain that Seiya is the real murderer who killed the big businessman Mr. Robert. Your assassination."
"Do those investigators know?"
"I should know." The president of the Luo Saen Guild Hall cautiously looked up at Sean, observing Sean's expression before choosing his words carefully.
"Since those investigators know about it, then follow the normal procedures. I know that I can't blame you for this." Xiao En looked at the president in front of him and said in a deep voice. He just wanted to trouble this small flaw as soon as possible. It's just a solution. Sean doesn't care how it was solved. "After all, those who don't know are innocent. I believe that if you know the real situation, you will definitely deal with it as soon as possible."
"It's inevitable." The president of the Luo Saen Guild Hall nodded and said, "After all, I am a Ryan."
Sean nodded slightly, and then waved his hand to indicate that he was tired and wanted to rest, so the president of the Rosaan Guild Hall stood up and said goodbye. Watching the other party leave, Sean felt somewhat sympathetic to the person named Seiya in his heart.
As the person involved, Xiao En is naturally very aware of the whole incident, but he did not expect that the real behind-the-scenes boss of the Luo Saen Guild Hall would have the courage to directly pour sewage on himself. After all, if this is the case, the Rosean Guild Hall will probably have to carry out a long period of rectification and inspection, so of course there will be no income for a long period of time. The impact of Sean's assassination was minimized.
Similarly, they can also get a big benefit.
That is the right to freedom of action against the Dabion rebels.
For a long time to come, I am afraid that the entire Ryan will fall into an atmosphere of panic and fear. After all, the incident of Xiao En's attack is tantamount to announcing that the Dabion rebels have infiltrated the capital of Ryan, so they will definitely be infiltrated more seriously in other places, so even if there are occasional disputes and conflicts , or even use military power to suppress it, all of this can be used as an excuse for the Yadabion rebels.
Sean knew without thinking that the real behind-the-scenes boss of the Rosean Guild Hall must be someone from the core of the aristocratic circle in Senai. Because of the name of the Darbion rebels, these nobles in Senegal can freely carry out military mobilization and command in the territory of Ryan, and they may even send stronger troops to encircle him.
Anyway, as long as the time comes to shift the responsibility to the Dabion rebels, then there will be no evidence for everything.
There was a sneer on the corner of Sean's mouth.
Fortunately, he was well prepared, otherwise, he might really get messed up because of this little trouble.
Almost two or three days after the president of the Rosaan Guild Hall visited Sean, the investigation into the death of the big businessman Robert, who had been stagnant, finally had a new development. Sean, who was killed by Sean, the Duke of Connery, hired the bodyguard Seya in the Rosean Guild Hall, and it was confirmed that he was a member of the Dabion rebels, and all this was for revenge. Duke of Sean Connery status.
To put it simply, this is a premeditated targeted retaliation.
Of course, people with a discerning eye already knew that this so-called targeted retaliation was purely a farce. After all, if this was the case, Seiya could not be the only one. It’s just that the aristocratic circle is a place that pays attention to tacit understanding, especially for the nobles—whether they are outside the Great Wall or inside the Great Wall, they have great benefits, so no one has opened their mouths to express any different views and opinions on this. .
Therefore, the result naturally ended in this way.
It's just that at this time, Sean has already received the second contract task from Potter's Tavern that can gain proficiency points.
The Potter Tavern was actually an insider about the incident at the Rosean Guild Hall, but they weren't stupid enough to reveal the truth to the public. Especially watching Sean, who only made a simple disguise, take the mission from them for the second time, which shows that Sean doesn't care about the truth at all. Facing such a big man, no matter how much courage they gave Porter, they would not dare to threaten Sean. After all, Sean's current strength and background are not weaker than the other six dukes.
No one is stupid.
However, Sean's actions are naturally not a good behavior for Ryan.
Especially now that the martial arts festival is about to start, and the neighboring countries have already settled in the Ryan Palace, it is naturally very irritating that there are continuous murders in the capital.
In one week, even though a large amount of security force had been put in, there were still three murders in the capital of Ryan.
Except for the death of the great businessman Robert, the victims of the other two murders actually had similar identities, but they were not as famous as Robert.
Such a thing naturally made King Ryan furious.
But no matter how angry the king is, it's none of Xiao En's business. In the past week, Sean has completed all the contract tasks in the Porter Tavern that can obtain proficiency points. There are a total of four tasks that can bring Sean proficiency points, and three of them are designated to kill the target person , the last one is an escort mission, which is why King Ryan has three murders.
After all this was done, Sean didn't hesitate to put all the thirteen proficiency points accumulated in the recent period into the agility value in one go.
In this way, Sean's agility value reached, accounting for points.
Just counting the 20 points of agility gained by turning on the light body technique, and the direct doubling of the adrenal gland stimulation, in the end it was only 270 points of agility, which is still far from the 280 points required for the new qualitative change. It was ten o'clock. Of course, if converted into actual data, only five points are enough. If he can get another five points of agility improvement, then Xiao En thinks that he can reach his soul-suppressing theoretical data value.
In other words, if you can increase the agility value by five points, then you can learn the soul-suppressing skill through self-study without consuming any proficiency points. However, Xiao En is also very clear that if he wants to learn to suppress the soul in this way, then he needs to make persistent efforts. After all, this learning method is not as good as a more skilled investment. ability to learn and master.
But in fact, if possible, Sean really doesn't mind mastering new skills in this way.
Because without the unremitting practice of sword skills these days, it is impossible for Xiao En to comprehend the special ability of "Sword Injury Dark Collapse"
Although the system still doesn't recognize Sean's special ability, Sean always believes that it's because of the wrong way of using it. In other words, Xiao En always believed that this special ability should still have the possibility of being perfected, but it may be because of the particularity of his current fighting spirit that the current embarrassing state appeared.
Seriously speaking, Sean's current physical and internal conditions are not very stable.
It is mainly because of some problems with his class route that this kind of half-tone situation occurs. If he uses too much of his dark vindictiveness, he will fall into a blackened situation. Although Sean is not very clear about what the so-called "dark servant" is, it certainly doesn't sound like a good thing from the text introduction. So Sean didn't want to try at all.
Moreover, things like "Holy Water for Pilgrims" are not easy to get.
According to Hitley, this is not ordinary holy water, and it is possible to purify such holy water only after the chief priest above the high priest level consumes a lot of divine grace. Even as the Saintess of Heather, there are a lot of free divine favors provided every day, but she has only condensed three drops for so long. This time when Xiao En went out, he gave out all three drops of holy water.
Currently, the dark power threshold in Xiao En's body is only 48%, which has not yet reached the point where he needs to use the Holy Water of the Pilgrims.
But if he uses the Dark Battle Qi again, then he needs to use the holy water of the pilgrims once.
And right now, the most important thing is to increase the last five points of agility.
At this time, there were less than seven days left before the official start of the Fighting Festival, and Xiao En decided to carry out the first transformation of the dead bones in this last time, so as to ensure that he could get the last five points of agility.
