French knight lord: I have a skill panel

Chapter 127 Lomo’s decision

Vincent showed no discomfort at all to Malcolm's black face. He just bowed to Malcolm and Viscount Alex according to etiquette and said, "Greetings to the mayor, Viscount Alex."

Although he paid his respects to Malcolm, his tone was cold, without any hint of respect.When dealing with Viscount Alex, his tone was sincere and respectful.

"Vinson, are you on duty at Saldin House today?" Job greeted Vincent.

"Yes, sir. During this period, I am on duty in Volo City." Vincent replied.

He pulled out a long sword with blue light hanging from his waist with one hand, showed it to Job with a smile: "My lord, this is made of three magic weapons. Doesn't it look good?"

Viscount Alex looked at this exquisitely crafted weapon and sighed softly: "With such exquisite enchanting craftsmanship, Lord Saldin is indeed an all-rounder."

"Thank you, Lord Viscount. My master will be very happy to hear your compliments." Vincent bowed to Viscount Alex: "I just received the news from your servant and rushed over immediately. May I ask Elliot? Where is the store manager and what happened to him?”

There was a sad expression on Job's face, and he said softly: "He was killed and cut into two pieces at the waist."

When Vincent heard this, his smiling expression suddenly became serious.

He said in a deep voice: "Elliot is a very important person in our manor. This is a big matter. I want to transport Elliot's body back to the manor."

When Malcolm heard this, he laughed angrily.He felt that if he said a word to this Vincent, he would lose his identity.

But seeing Vincent stepping forward without asking a question, he had no choice but to stop him immediately: "Wait a minute! This Elliot is obviously the Sheriff of the City Hall, how come he has become a member of your manor?"

Vincent stopped and replied: "I don't care about his other identities, I only know that he is the store manager of our Saldin House. If something happens to the store manager, my master will definitely ask about it, so I want to take his body." Take it back to the master."

Malcolm sneered and said: "It's so ridiculous. You only have eyes for your master. Don't you have a city hall and a kingdom? A sheriff dies, but he wants to give his body to your Saldin Manor? There are other places in the Volo Valley? King’s law? Is there any law?”

Vincent looked at Malcolm without the slightest fear, and said in a deep voice: "Mayor, you don't understand. Our team is ordered by the master to ensure the safety of the people and property of the Saldin House in Volo City. Now that our store manager is dead, we have seriously neglected our duties. If we can't even take the body back, then all of us here may have to die to apologize."

Having said this, he puffed up his chest and said in a deep voice: "So, no matter what you say today. We must take Elliot's body away, even if it costs us our lives."

As he spoke, he shouted loudly: "Third detachment, draw your sword!"

There was a loud bang, and all the knights of Saltine Manor behind him drew their swords, their eyes looking at Malcolm and Marshall for a moment.

Malcolm had never seen such a fearless team, and his face turned red with anger for a moment.Although Marshall is the Minister of Public Security, he usually indulges himself in food, drink, whoring and gambling. At this moment, he was even more frightened and took a step back.

They never expected that this group of knights composed of country people would have the courage to draw their swords against the Lord Mayor.

What kind of ecstasy did Romo Saldin pour into his men to make them fight so hard?
"Rebellion, rebellion." Malcolm muttered.A confused look appeared on his face involuntarily.

If they were allowed to take the body away, it would undoubtedly be a huge loss of face.

But if we really want to stop him, do we really have to fight to the death with these ant-like characters?

If it is really damaged, it is really not worth the loss.

Seeing how embarrassed Malcolm was, Viscount Alex said with a smile on his face: "My Lord Mayor, I advise you to get out of the way. They dare to attack Earl Brad and kill him. For you, As a mayor, they may not dare to take action."

When Malcolm heard this, although he didn't like Viscount Alex's tone, he also understood that what he said was true.

These idiots can really do anything.

That bastard Saldin trained them so well, they were like a group of fighting machines that didn't know what fear was.

After thinking for a while, Malcolm finally gave in.Face is important, but if you are bitten by a mad dog, even if you kill all the mad dogs, the loss outweighs the gain.

"Okay, okay. The good soldiers from Lord Saldin are indeed brave." Once the decision was made, Malcolm's originally angry expression immediately calmed down and said in a deep voice: "Since your will is so strong, I will give you Master, please save your face. When you return to the manor, ask Lord Saldin for me."

"Thank you for your understanding, Lord Mayor!" Vincent immediately bowed.

Viscount Alex also nodded secretly in his mind. This man, Malcolm, is really a character who can take it up and put it down.

But the more this happens, the more it means this person is extremely dangerous.

Marshall wished that Malcolm would stop insisting. Facing these lunatics, he had long wanted to withdraw.So he immediately waved his hand and told the people from the Public Security Department to leave.

Job took Vincent and others into the house, and within a short time, he used a bed board to carry Elliot's body out.

The body was covered with a layer of white cloth, and its specific appearance could no longer be seen.

Joshua, who looked dull and said nothing, was also helped up by Job and others, and left with Sardin's knights.

But before these people could move the body, Malcolm and Marshall had already left.

On the way back, Malcolm thought carefully about what had happened today.It is true that Elliot was killed by magic, but it was the magic of the wind element, not the chaos magic of the evil orcs.

And Elliot is dead, and Joshua was poisoned by him.Dead people and fools cannot speak.

Normally, the evil orcs' affairs should not have been exposed.

However, what happened today was too sudden, and my presence at the scene was already trying to conceal it.From this point on, he can no longer escape his involvement.

When he thought of this, he cursed Maggie in his heart for that arrogant idiot.

But he had no better solution.We can only let these people leave with the body, and stabilize Saldin first.

Now that he had given in, Malken suddenly felt that he could even lower his stance.He decided to send a letter to Lord Saldin himself to explain what happened today.Show kindness to Saldin instead of being so tense as today.

Doing so may paralyze Saldin and allow him to relax his vigilance a little.

While he was thinking about it, as soon as he returned to his study room at home, Maggie appeared from the darkness and asked with a gloomy face: "How is the matter handled?"

Malcolm snorted coldly and said, "The person you killed happened to be a subordinate of Lord Saldin."

When Maggie heard this, she immediately became worried and asked: "Then Lord Saldin won't be wary of this and won't come to participate in the knighthood ceremony, right?"

"It's impossible to tell." Malcolm said solemnly: "I will make some remedies next. But there is no need to be afraid that he will not come. If he does not even participate in the kingdom's knighting ceremony, in the eyes of the kingdom, it will be considered He even disdains the rewards given to him by the king himself. Then the kingdom will never tolerate him again. When the time comes, you don’t need to take action, the cabinet will take action personally. "

When Maggie heard this, she thought that this was indeed the case, and smiled: "It seems that your plan is quite good. As expected of the mayor." "Mr. Maggie, don't be too happy too soon." Malcolm Shaking his head slightly, he said: "I still don't know how Lord Saldin will react. I have to write a letter first to test it out."

Elliot and Joshua were temporarily brought into the House of Saldin.

Looking at Elliot, who had been broken into two parts, and Joshua, whose eyes were dull and silent, Viscount Alex, Vincent and others all had solemn expressions.

At this time, a knight from the Military Intelligence Bureau walked into the room and said to Vincent: "Sir, my people just patrolled the surrounding area and found a pool of blood two intersections away from the Magic Market. After we passed by The identification of blood stains and footprints should be the first crime scene.”

"The store manager Elliot was probably suddenly intercepted and killed on his way to the Saldin House. However, there seemed to be no footprints of the murderer at the scene. Considering that the store manager Elliot was killed by a wind blade, the murderer It should be some kind of wind movement or floating technique."

"It's two streets away," Vincent said sadly, "If he goes one more intersection, he can reach our sentry range."

The knight from the Military Intelligence Bureau was also very upset and said: "We at the Military Intelligence Bureau are sorry for the store manager Elliott. I'm afraid I will be severely punished by Director Yale when I go back this time."

For a moment, the atmosphere in the room was very depressing.

Vincent said to Viscount Alex and Job: "We will set off soon to escort Elliot and Joshua back to Sardine Manor. My master has great powers and may be able to save Joshua. Please tell me. Do you two adults have anything you want me to convey to the master?"

Viscount Alex thought, shook his head slightly and said, "This matter must be related to Mayor Malcolm. Maybe Elliot discovered something he shouldn't have discovered, and was assassinated by someone sent by Malcolm. It's just that Elliot discovered something he shouldn't have discovered, and then was assassinated by someone sent by Malcolm. , his men don’t seem to have any great wind elemental magic knights. I have no clue about these inferences, and I can’t provide any valuable information yet. Maybe Joshua knows more. I will do the same in Volo City. Trying to figure it out and see if we can find something that would work for Joshua’s condition.”

Vincent felt that Viscount Alex had no clue, so he said sincerely: "Please pay attention to your safety, Lord Viscount Alex. You are our master's greatest help now."

"Don't worry." Viscount Alex nodded: "Please convey the same words to Lord Saldin. Let him pay attention to his safety."

Since there was no other valid information, Vincent immediately ordered the knight detachment to prepare for departure.

Job walked up to Joshua, helped her tuck her messy hair, and said softly: "You are the person Elliot loves most. For him, please live on. Don't worry, Sal Lord Ding will be responsible for your safety."

After saying this, Job looked at Joshua hopefully, hoping that she would be touched.However, Joshua looked at Job with dull eyes and showed no reaction.

One day later, Vincent led a detachment of knights back to Sardin Manor at a rapid march.

Romo had already learned the news of Elliot's murder through the carrier pigeon that had returned to the manor first.

As soon as Vincent and the knights from the Military Intelligence Bureau arrived at the manor, they immediately reported the situation to Romo.

They thought that this omission was too big and they would be punished extremely severely.But to their surprise, Lomo did not punish them.

This incident was originally an accident.Vincent and the Military Intelligence Bureau deployed the defense in accordance with the regulations, and there was nothing wrong with it.

If Elliot could advance one or two more intersections, he would be within the surveillance range of the Military Intelligence Agency.

Unfortunately, this didn't happen.

Regarding Elliot's death, Lomo fell into deep thoughts.

This former ally of his was the one who brought him his first pot of gold, and he also introduced him to Count Martin.

Without him, I wouldn't have been able to develop so smoothly.

However, such a powerful ally was inexplicably killed in the empty streets of Volo City.

There was only one friend left, and he was poisoned by Mayor Malcolm into a fool.

Thinking of the first contact with Elliot, this was his first real friend.

'Mayor Malkan, I will never forgive you! ' Luo Mo thought secretly in his heart.

But, what secret did Elliot discover about Mayor Malcolm that allowed him to kill him in such a hasty way?

Moreover, according to Lomo's understanding of the Guards Battalion, there does not seem to be such a master who can cut Elliot in half without him reacting at all.

There is a mage in the preparation camp who uses wind element magic.But that mage is a buff mage, and his skills are all for the army, and he definitely doesn't have such power.

Everything seems to indicate that Malcolm has ushered in his powerful ally.

Moreover, this ally does not seem to be under Malcolm's control.Otherwise, Elliot would never have died so hastily.

Lomo didn't know Mayor Malcolm well, and he couldn't imagine what kind of ally he was.

In addition, what secret did Elliot discover that led them to silence him like this?This is also a question worth thinking about.

Perhaps Eliot discovered the secret of the identity of Malcolm's ally?
Or maybe he was aware of some of Malcolm's evil plans that were detrimental to him.

This plan was so important and urgent that as soon as Elliot discovered it, he was eliminated at all costs.

Thinking of this, Luo Mo's thoughts gradually became clear.

I haven't been out of the manor for a long time. Even if there is any plan for me, it needs a suitable place to implement it.

From this point of view, there is only one possibility - they are preparing to attack themselves when they set off to Volo City to participate in the ceremony of being entrusted!
It's just that I don't know the identity of the person who did it and what kind of strength he has. These are important issues.

Luo Mo thought for a long time and suddenly made a decision in his heart.

If you can't think of it, just ask Malcolm himself.

Thinking of this, he immediately summoned Yale.

Because of what happened this time, Yale was very dissatisfied with the performance of his men this time, and felt both self-blame and anxiety in his heart.Hearing Romo's call, as soon as he entered the room, he immediately knelt on the ground and said: "Sir, our Military Intelligence Bureau did not work well and failed to protect the trading staff of the Saldin House. Please punish me."

Luo Mo waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "I called you here not because of this problem. I want to give you a task."

"Sir, please speak!" Yale said immediately with joy in his heart.The opportunity to make amends came so quickly.

"I want you to take people to Volo City in person and investigate all of Mayor Malcolm's daily movements. Don't let go of all daily activities. I want to personally capture him at the manor and ask him something. "Things" Luo Mo said solemnly.
