Originally, it was just an exhibition team. Although it was in the name of Empire, this kind of trivial matter could not be reported to Yalan. But this matter is the focus of Yalan, so the first time the accident reported to Yalan.
Of course, Linton directly took over the following things. After all, Yalan did not know what Linton wanted. Linton did not seriously mention the core of the world with Yalan.
Separated from Jaran, Linton went straight to the site of the incident, the city of antorom, northeast of the Empire. This is a relatively large city in the northeast of the Empire. At this time, the exhibition has already walked around the western part of the Empire, and is preparing to go from west to East, from the northeast to the east of the Empire to continue the exhibition. But just as we were passing through the city of antorom, something happened.
Linton is marked on the core of the world, so Linton can send it to someone if necessary. Just because of Yalan's focus, the report was too timely, which led to an accident here, there received the news. Linton estimates that this thing may not have been brought back to the other party's base. His goal is to catch big fish, so it's better to give the other party a little time to let this thing be sent to the big fish, so first come here to see the situation, and confirm whether the other party's target is the core of the world or ordinary money grabbing.
When he came to the scene, Linton found that the incident was more exaggerated than he thought. When Linton came to antorom City, he found that the whole city was under martial law. After asking the person who was in charge of the exhibition, named sectin, who came to meet him, Linton realized how much exaggeration he had done.
It happened this morning in the city of antorom. In fact, the exhibition team arrived in antorom two days ago. After two days of preparation, they are preparing to open the exhibition tomorrow. At this time, the exhibits are in the exhibition site, the storehouse of the temple of Tesla in antorom city. Yes, this exhibition borrows the boundary of a temple, because there is no special museum in antorom City, and this temple is large and suitable.
Then, this morning, probably a group of people directly attacked the temple and robbed all the exhibits. It's probably because the other side didn't leave a living mouth. All the guards, temple personnel and even passers-by were killed. He was lucky because he wasn't there in the morning. He didn't find out the tragedy until the patrol team found something wrong in the afternoon, so he informed him. When he arrived at the scene, he was stunned and quickly reported the situation to Yalan.
Just as he said, Linton followed sikting to the place where the incident happened. As expected, the scene was a tragedy. Linton at the entrance saw obvious bloodstains, but did not see the body. Asked about the scene, although it has been sealed off, but did not move. It is estimated that it was the body moved by the snatcher himself, and the body was concentrated in the temple, which should delay the time of discovery.
Sure enough, after entering the room, Linton directly saw a room of bodies, at least more than 30 people, half of whom were guards, the other half should be the original staff of the temple. And this is not all people. I heard there are many rooms over there.
The mayor of antorom was also at the scene. Of course, he knew Linton. He guessed that Linton should be in charge of this matter, so he came to report the situation immediately. At present, more than 50 corpses have been found. Since the other side can kill so many people in a short time, and they have not been found, the city Lord thinks that the attackers have at least a complete team and are professional.
Of course, the city Lord issued martial law at the first time, directly blocking the whole city. However, because the discovery time was a little late, and the other side looked very professional, maybe the other side had already evacuated. But now the city guards are still searching the gang from door to door.
"Lord swordsman, look at this wound. I suspect that these people should have received regular military training, not ordinary bandits." The city Lord here is obviously from the army origin, seriously infers. Of course, those who can become the city Lord basically have made military achievements. It is estimated that it is difficult to achieve such a real power position just by relying on the family shadow.
Linton looked at it a little and found that the dead were basically cut in the throat by a knife, or stabbed in a crucial position. It was really professional. Although Linton himself had not joined the army, he could understand the city Lord's inference. After thinking about it for a while, he said, "it's really professional to kill so many people, but if you want to find out the defense configuration here, you may need an internal agent..."
"Puff" a, Linton just finished, next to sikting directly knelt down, "your honor, I'm not a spy."
Linton frowned. This guy knelt too fast and didn't say you.
"My Lord, I know that I'm the only one left in the exhibition team. It's really suspicious, but I'm really not a spy. I'm not here because I'm visiting Lord Serra. I overslept in the morning... " Said sexton.
"Yes, my Lord, last night I had a feast for Lord sexton." "Yes, I have drunk a little too much. Lord Sexton spent the night in my house yesterday," said the mayor
It turns out that Yalan sent the team in charge of the exhibition. The rest of the team was hung up. The only one left was this secrdine. When he heard Linton say that he had an agent, he thought that Linton was talking about himself at the first time. But really, Linton felt that this guy didn't have the courage to do it. In fact, Linton didn't come to catch the real murderer. It didn't matter what he was supposed to do. He wanted someone who knew the core of the world."Well, I didn't say it was you." "At the moment, it's important to investigate this matter quickly..."
Words have not finished, next to a soldier very urgent rushed over: "city Lord, check the situation."
"Say it Serra, the Lord of the city, said immediately that he was also very anxious. He must be responsible for such a vicious incident under his rule. Now he wants to find out the matter quickly, otherwise he may be the end of the city.
"According to the report of the staff of the transmission array, they met a very strange mercenary team this morning. The mercenary team had more than ten people. They actually chose to use the transmission array. What's more, they chose five different cities for transmission, and the staff said that some of them carried several boxes." Guard report.
"It must be them." Serra, the Lord of the city, said at once, "the time can be right, so suspicious, it must be them."
It's obvious that Sierra's suspicions are not just about the boxes, but about the use of transport arrays. You know, transmission array is not free, but the charge is very expensive. It's not that the mercenaries can't afford it, but more than a dozen people can use it together. Generally speaking, if there are so many people, it's obviously suitable for the mercenary team to choose to go directly by land. What's more, they have been scattered to five cities. Does this increase the difficulty of their tracking?
On the contrary, Linton was glad to hear the speech. Yes, the purpose of these people was that Linton could easily understand that he liked the separation of the other party. According to the report, these two or three people went to different cities with suspected treasure boxes. Since they were separated, it means that the other party didn't really want all the treasures, but one of the treasures. The others were suspects. The most wanted thing should be one of them. This That's exactly what Linton expected.
Obviously, Linton thinks that what the other party wants is the core of the world. It seems that he has not made a mistake.
"Get in touch with the City owners of those cities and help them track down the situation of these people." Said sera, the city lord over here.
"Yes, my Lord." The soldiers on this side were ordered to go down immediately.
"Even if you go to those cities, the other side is likely to transfer. After all, since you retreat through the transmission array, you can still use it." Linton said, "these people are so well prepared that they may not have been following you in the last two days."
"Master swordsman, please rest assured that I will try my best to find it." Of course, Serra, the city Lord mentioned by Linton, also knows about it. However, as long as he has used the transmission array, it will naturally be recorded and known everywhere. In this way, it is not without trace.
"Your Majesty asked me to take charge of this matter. You should help me well." Said Linton.
"Yes, my Lord." After all, Linton didn't mean direct accountability, which made them a little more relaxed.
"My Lord, I have news!" At this time, another soldier rushed over. "News came from the city of montserrato. Before that, three very suspicious people passed by their transmission array. The city guard over there found something wrong with them. During the investigation, the three men suddenly attacked, killed several city guards, and then absconded. The city has been sealed off and the three men are being hunted. The Lord of montserrato has sent people to inquire about the situation
"It must be those guys." Hearing this, Sierra immediately said, "tell the city Lord of montserrato what's going on here, and ask him to help us catch these three men."
"Yes." Said the soldier at once.
"My Lord, there's a cable." "If you catch a team, you can catch them."
"Exposed. It's a little easy." Linton suddenly touched his chin and said.
