Working Prophet

Chapter 542 A bold idea

"You two stop arguing," the second prince Claudio advised, "Father just closed his eyes not long ago, we need to work together to find his murderer, and don't let outsiders see the joke."

The last half of Claudio's words meant something. Gars and Allister both looked thoughtful after hearing this and finally stopped arguing.

Claudio then said, "I propose that Sir Durham should also investigate. He is the head of the father's imperial bodyguard. He is the most loyal to his father. I believe he can also maintain justice in the investigation."

"But my father was poisoned under his guard. Even if the murderer had nothing to do with him, he couldn't escape the blame." Allister snorted coldly.

"Then who do you think we should call to investigate?" Garth said as he glanced at the several imperial ministers present, but none of them spoke.

Edward II's death was very strange, and the captain of the bodyguard, Duren, also said before that the possibility of people around him being poisoned was very high.

In other words, the water here is very deep, and even the imperial minister does not want to wade into this muddy water at this time.

Garth looked around, but before anyone responded, just when he was about to take the initiative to inquire, a voice suddenly sounded.

"Please let me take charge of this investigation. I am willing to risk all my honor to find the murderer and avenge His Majesty."

It was Du Lun who spoke, and the chief guard paused and continued, "When the murderer is caught and he is punished, I will also give up all titles and noble status, and leave the capital."

"That's not necessary." Gals was a little moved when he heard this. "You are the person my father trusts the most. He often praises your loyalty in front of us. I still hope that you can continue to serve our family."

"But I have failed your father's trust." Du Lun said with a painful expression, "Your brother is right, His Majesty was poisoned and killed under my protection. I am not a competent guard chief. The only thing I want to do now is Find the murderer and let His Majesty rest in peace."

"In that case, the investigation will be hard on you." Claudio said.

Allister didn't say anything this time, which was regarded as acquiescing to this decision.

Ilea stood aside obediently at this time, listening to the conversation of several people. Given her status, she definitely couldn't get in the middle of the conversation.

And Miss Rabbit is still in shock at the moment. Edward II was still talking to her a moment ago, and wanted to get the new land through her and inherit the legacy left by the Wetting family.

Unexpectedly, no one turned around.

Especially thinking of the tragic situation before Edward II's interim, the female lord couldn't help shivering, and even seriously considered whether she should give up drinking.

But this is Bratis, and unclean water is more deadly than wine.

The female lord was still thinking wildly when she felt a gaze falling on her. She raised her head and looked across.

Realizing that the person looking at her was Queen Heloise, the latter nodded slightly from her, then raised her voice slightly.

"This martial arts tournament is over, everyone can leave."

But then Du Lun added, "The ten people who were in the arena just now should not leave the capital. I may need your help in the follow-up investigation, especially you, Sir Ilea. I will go to your residence later. Talk to you in detail.”

"Oh oh oh," Ilea nodded, "I will cooperate with your investigation. As long as it is something I know, I will tell you everything."

After Miss Rabbit finished speaking, she was finally able to go back to the tent and changed her clothes. Looking at the shocking pool of blood on her chest, the girl couldn't help being a little silent.

She walked out of the tent and saw Li Yu standing outside, studying Moen's body with Ge Lipeng.

Ilea walked over, "What are you looking at?"

"The destructive power of the thunderbolt, as well as the flight trajectory of the bullet... things like that will make it easier for Watt's followers to continue to improve the Hand of Judgment."

Miss Rabbit seemed to understand. Then she listened to Li Yu and said, "By the way, we will also study whether this body can be recovered."

Moen is a foreigner and has no relatives in the continent of Bratis. Especially after his identity as a member of the Wing Tribe was exposed, no one came to collect his body.

So Li Yu discussed with the guard in charge of collecting the body at the competition ground and bought the body for three gold lions.

The guard didn't think much about it and just thought it was the champion who wanted to collect trophies.

It's like a hunter collecting antlers, and the body of this wing warrior seems to be much rarer than the antlers.

"Recycle?" The girl was stunned for a moment, then thought of something and asked in surprise, "Do you plan to use this corpse to summon a servant?"

Li Yu nodded, "Let's try it."

When he came this time, the [Reincarnation Bell] happened to carry the soul of a time traveler.

It was originally planned to use the body of a death row prisoner to hold the summoning ceremony after Ilea's martial arts competition, but now there is a better option.

However, Li Yu was also a little unsure whether the wound left by the bullet was serious or not, and whether it could be automatically repaired when he was resurrected.

However, Moen, as the actual second place in this martial arts tournament, has good physical fitness in all aspects. Using the five dimensions of the game to evaluate, his agility attribute is almost full.

The most important thing is that he has wings on his back and is born with the ability to fly, which is an ability that many people dream of.

Li Yu himself was a little excited, and seeing that the Wing Clan was about to invade Bratis, this body might still be useful in the future.

To sum up, it is quite salvageable.

Although Miss Rabbit was a little surprised, she didn't think there was anything wrong with this. Inspired by this, she also had a bold idea in her heart.

"Then His Majesty's corpse is also..."

Li Yu shook his head, "No chance."

In fact, as soon as Ilea said this, she knew that it was impossible. After all, Edward II was the emperor, and his body must be guarded. It would be a big deal if it was lost.

Moreover, it is not a secret that Li Yu summoned servants from the Kingdom of God with the help of the corpse of a dead person. Many people know that as long as a little investigation is done, it is easy to be suspected.

Besides, Edward II has a special status. It is too conspicuous no matter where it is placed. Even if it is secretly taken back to Green Field, it will be difficult to explain if someone discovers it in the future.

So as soon as this thought arose, the female lord threw it out of her mind.

In addition, although Edward II tricked her once and forced her to participate in this martial arts tournament, fortunately she won the championship in the end, and Edward II has been taking good care of her during this time.

It saved her a lot of trouble in the royal capital, and Miss Rabbit had a good impression of the emperor who had a poor reputation among the people.

Now that Edward II is dead, she has decided not to disturb his rest.

But then the female lord remembered another thing, slapped her thigh and said, "Hey, you said that your majesty died, can I still get those rewards?"
