Lord of the Mysteries

Chapter 192

Audrey's eyes rolled slightly, her thoughts scattered, and she analyzed many things at once:

Mr. "The Hanged Man" has described that Qilingus is a lone wolf who doesn't trust anyone. Only he knows his action plan. Except for me, no one should know that he will assassinate tonight...

I only told my father and Mr. Fool about Baron Gramere's suspected "Vice Admiral Hurricane" Chillingus pretending to be...

Although there is a telegraph line in Duke Negan's mansion, which can transmit the information in time and find helpers, there is no need to hide it... Dad's confusion shows that the strong man who killed Qilingos was not what they expected...

To sum up, the person who killed Qilingos can almost certainly be a member of Mister Fool's family!

And only the special mode of our Tarot Club can create weird situations with unknown motives!

Qilingus is the "Wind Blessed One" of Sequence 6, and he also possesses the magical item "Squirming Hunger". He can kill him quickly without leaving a trace. ? Or, use a sealed item that is rumored to be extremely dangerous?

No matter what the possibility is, it is enough to show that Mister Fool's dependents are extremely powerful...

As expected of Mister Fool!

No matter what, I have provided a clue, and Mr. "The Hanged Man" must fulfill his promise to give me the pituitary gland of the colorful lizard dragon!

This should be the first official action of our "Tarot Club", right?

Qilingus, one of the seven pirate generals, died as a result!

Seeing that his daughter was a little excited in contemplation, Earl Hall, who was also a handsome man when he was young, coughed lightly, and warned more seriously:

"Audrey, I know that you are very interested in things in the mysterious field, and usually pamper you, but you must not get involved in this matter, even inquiring about it. You will be led by the queen at the end of the year, Formally introduced into a social situation, as an adult, you should be clear and remember that a terrifying Extraordinary, or a secretive, powerful organization is often equal to danger, understand?"

"I see, Dad." Audrey replied softly, "I was just a little curious just now."

"Curiosity is not enough!" Earl Hall emphasized this sentence, and couldn't help showing a helpless smile.

"Yeah!" Audrey nodded obediently.

Anyway, I know the whole thing better than you... She grimaced inwardly.

Earl Hall thought for a while and smiled gently:

"No matter what, you are the hero tonight and the savior of Duke Negan. At least half of Qilingus' death is due to you, and the bounty is the same. Of course, if no one admits that he killed Qilin Gus, claiming to be responsible for this matter and taking the initiative to claim the bounty, then the remaining half will also belong to you, adding up to 10,000 gold pounds."

"Well, the bounties set up by the Intis Republic, the Feysac Empire and other countries and organizations can also be sent to collect. In conversion, there should be 20,000 gold pounds."

"Duke Negan just promised to give you his holiday estate in Disi Bay, which includes a large rubber forest. I don't know the annual income in detail, but it will definitely not be low. He spent 8000 at the beginning. It was only bought with gold pounds, and later houses were built and good seeds were purchased.”

Audrey already has a property of 300,000 pounds, which is enough to be called rich, but a reward close to or even exceeding 40,000 pounds is still a huge amount of income for her, and many noble ladies' dowry can't reach this number.

In a marriage between a nobleman and a businessman in August, Miss Mary Oldbury, the daughter of a millionaire, also married 80,000 gold pounds.

"I didn't think about the bounty at all..." Audrey whispered from the bottom of her heart.

Suddenly, she thought of one thing, if she went to collect the bounty and spread her reputation, then "The Hanged Man" could easily determine who "Justice" was.

This is not allowed! As a member of the Tarot Society, I have to remain mysterious! Audrey looked at her father and organized the following words:

"dad,

I'm a little scared..."

"Why? What happened?" Earl Hall asked with concern.

"If it is announced that I found out that Qilingus was pretending to be Baron Gramere, I am afraid that his subordinates will retaliate against me, and I am afraid that the person who ordered him to assassinate Duke Negan behind the scenes will target me..." Audrey tried her best I appear pitiful, weak, and helpless.

"I will ask someone to protect you." Earl Hall responded first, and then nodded lightly, "But there is really no need for you to take this risk, and the person who killed Qilingus took away the wriggling hunger , Of course, for high-sequence powerhouses, this is not a sufficiently convincing motive, um... I will tell Duke Negan to hide this matter, and let him find someone else to collect the bounty, I will compensate you in private later."

Having said that, Earl Hall smiled and said:

"As expected of my daughter, she earned 40,000 gold pounds, which is more than one-tenth of your current wealth."

The 300,000 pounds was divided up in advance by him and given to his daughter's property. When she gets married, he will make up another part of it.

"Were you good before you have a father?" Audrey asked joyfully.

Earl Hall shook his head and laughed:

"It's much better than me. The first time I got commercial income was only 60 pounds."

Audrey suddenly became extremely happy. The reward of 40,000 pounds and her father's praise resulted in the death of "Vice Admiral Hurricane" Qilingus and the sense of accomplishment that he had completed a remarkable thing. As a member of the "Tarot Society" The member's pride, the colorful lizard dragon pituitary gland that she will get from "The Hanged Man" afterwards, not only doubled her happiness, but tripled, even quadrupled, five times!

I really want to report to Mister Fool immediately and get his confirmation... No, no, a mysterious strongman with unknown motives has killed Qilingus, and now someone must be watching me secretly, looking for clues, I can't show The slightest abnormality... Bah! There is nothing unusual about me, as long as I don't try to recite the honorable name of Mister Fool...

Well, if it was indeed done by Mister Fool's family, He must have known the result, and I don't need to report it... Hmm... Do I need to share the reward with that family? No, no matter what method is used to pay 20,000 pounds, it will definitely attract attention. I can't take this risk...

Moreover, "The Hanged Man" has always been asking Mr. "Fool" for help, and he should pay for it. Yes, he claimed to have many Roselle diaries!

I will try my best to collect some more diaries, and thank Mister Fool for responding to my prayers, he definitely does not look down on vulgar money...

Audrey quickly determined what to do next.

…………

In the mansion of Duke Negan, in a small private study.

The fat and tall Duke sat on a high-backed chair behind the table, smoking a cigar, and looked at Al Snake, the "Singer of the Gods" and Agushid Negan, the Prime Minister of the Kingdom, on the opposite side.

"Judging from the information fed back six times, it is currently impossible to confirm which high-sequence expert did this." Agusid had just rushed back from the king.

Archbishop Snake nodded:

"We have also confirmed it with ordinary means. It is not those high-sequence powerhouses we are familiar with, and it is not the few from the Spiritual Sect."

"There are enough reasons to believe that it is a mysterious strong man that we don't know. Of course, the possibility that he used a dangerous sealed item cannot be ruled out."

Duke Negan held a cigar and said:

"Maybe it's not just a high-sequence powerhouse, there is probably a secret organization hidden behind him, a secret organization that we don't know enough about, otherwise we wouldn't be able to ambush Qilingus so accurately, um, maybe the party at the dance tonight A participant is their member."

His younger brother Agushid said solemnly:

"No matter what the possibility is, we must be careful. We must find out the identity of the high-sequence powerhouse as soon as possible, figure out what his purpose is in Backlund, and figure out whether he is simply chasing and killing Qilinger S, and why Chillingus was killed."

A high-sequence powerhouse who is not in his grasp wandering in Backlund is something that is enough to attract the attention of the Kingdom government and the three major churches!

Although the powerhouses of Sequence 4 and Sequence 3 may not be able to withstand the bombardment of giant ship cannons, there is absolutely no need for them to fight head-on. They have too many strange abilities.

Therefore, this is a more dangerous existence than an ironclad ship, just from the title of "half god and half man"!

"Singer of God" Ace Snake got up immediately and said:

"I'll make arrangements immediately and contact the Church of Evernight and the Church of Steam."

"His Majesty the King will also let the military and intelligence agencies cooperate." Aguhid promised.

…………

Backlund North District, inside a hotel.

Azik, with a bronze complexion and a mole next to his ear, sat under the gas lamp, staring at a glove placed in front of him.

This glove is very thin, as if made of human skin, it seems that as long as it is filled with flesh and blood, it can turn back into a hand.

Azik watched it for a while, then suddenly showed a painful and distorted expression, and whispered to himself:

"I seem to have worked with them..."

…………

Klein didn't sleep well all night, because he never received reports from "Justice" and "The Hanged Man", and didn't receive a reply from Mr. Azik. The result of that incident.

It should have caused a lot of trouble, so that Miss "Justice" and Mr. "The Hanged Man" dare not contact me rashly... But why didn't Mr. Azik reply? He wasn't involved, or did he say something happened? Injured by Qilingus? Klein covered his mouth with his hands, yawned, and boarded the trackless public carriage heading for Zouterand Street.

"Extra! Extra! Hurricane Admiral Qilingus was killed in Backlund!"

"Extra! Extra! Hurricane Admiral Qilingus was killed in Backlund!"

...

The carriage was about to drive when Klein suddenly heard the newsboy's voice, which also came from Emperor Roselle's instructions.

Dazed for a moment, Klein quickly took out a 1p coin, handed it out the window, and bought a Tingen morning newspaper. Many passengers also made the same choice.

Unfolding the newspaper, Klein immediately saw the headlines:

The great pirate Qilingus was killed in Backlund by the Duke's bodyguards

Chillingus dead? What did Mr. Ards do? Klein fell into deep thought, and complained to himself:

As the behind-the-scenes boss of this incident, I found out the result only after reading the newspaper...
