Chapter 110 The Princess's Advance Reward

More than ten minutes later, Duke Anzu Sefer arrived at the scene.

Lake's body had been dragged out of the study.

However, walking in the study, one could still smell a strong smell of blood.

This made Duke Sefer frown.

Standing behind him was a middle-aged butler in a dark butler uniform.

The butler's face was pale, and he was deeply bent: "Master, Lake was killed instantly by a single blow, and he was killed without any defense. I suspect that the invading enemy is at least an assassin of the sixth-level sanctuary."

"Hmm? Sixth-level sanctuary?"

"That's right."

"Okay, I see." Duke Sefer nodded calmly.

He took a rough look in the study.

In addition to the bloodstains on the ground that Lake had not been wiped dry, there were also secret compartments on the walls, under the windowsills, and under the seats that had been opened.

However, the Duke did not care, as the items in these secret compartments were not of much value.

[Sixth-level temporary experience scroll] has the highest value, but it is about to expire, so he is not very distressed.

But after seeing an open book on the table, the Duke's face changed.

He walked up quickly and picked up the book.

It was indeed "Scent of a Woman".

The letter he had put in the title page was also missing!

The Duke's face became very ugly.

That letter was very important. If his opponent got it, the consequences would be disastrous!

He turned and looked at the butler: "William, can you find out who the assassin who invaded was?"

"It's difficult." Butler William apologized: "We didn't find any traces left by the assassin, but"

"But?"

"Just a few seconds before Lake died, a guard near the study heard a name-'Master Andigus'. Could this matter be related to this master?"

"Andigus of Silver Pine Spire?" Duke Sefer frowned deeply: "Silver Pine Spire intervened? That would be difficult!"

Duke Sefer sat on the leather chair, stroking his chin to think about countermeasures.

Butler William didn't dare to speak.

The study fell into silence.

At the same time, Su Yu rode a white horse and rushed towards the princess's residence.

He was lucky. The [Random Teleportation Scroll] directly teleported him out of the Duke's manor and into a residential building in Yuwei Lane, and he was not stuck in the wall.

However, during the return process, Su Yu did not ride Tima to show off in the city, but found another [Disguise Master] to disguise himself as a bard, bought the white horse under his seat, and then dared to return to the princess's residence.

This was done to try to eliminate traces. The Duke's family was large and this was his territory. Su Yu did not want to be found and then be killed by the Duke's subordinates.

...

Riding on the street, Su Yu paid attention to the movements around him while looking at the [Sixth-level Temporary Experience Scroll] he had just received in his backpack.

"Alas! It would be great if this scroll was permanent!" Su Yu felt very sorry.

If the scroll was permanent, he could bring it back to reality with gold plating, which would be an excellent life-saving trump card!

But unfortunately, the scroll is only valid for 48 hours.

Su Yu also tried to use [Tina's Blood] to gild this scroll.

When he chose to use it, he received a game prompt:

"Ding! Do you want to use [Tina's Blood] to enhance [Level 6 Temporary Experience Scroll]? This item is a level 6 item, and the expected success rate of enhancement is 1.3%."

"1.3%?" Su Yu was a little helpless.

He now has only 10 copies of [Tina's Blood] in total, and there is less than 13% chance that it can be plated with gold if all of them are used, and there is a high probability that it will be wasted.

And the scroll only has 48 hours left, so he thinks it is not worth it.

But at this time, Su Yu suddenly had another idea: "I am quite familiar with the princess and Morning Star, why don't I ask them if there is any way to extend the validity period of the scroll?"

Thinking of this, Su Yu decided to ask before making a decision.

He no longer hesitated and urged the white horse under his seat with a whip to go at full speed.

In the hall of the princess's residence.

Princess Alice sat on the main seat, patiently listening to Su Yu's adventures along the way.

The cat Morning Star lazily lay in the princess's arms, eyes opened a crack, also looking at Su Yu.

After Su Yu finished speaking, the princess said happily: "Thank you, Nemesis! This letter is very important to us. I hope there is something we want in the letter."

The princess took the task item [a letter full of affection] presented by Kelderon, used the dazzling pattern to remove the magic seal of the letter mouth, and took out the letter to read the contents.

But just halfway through, her face suddenly turned red, a bit like a ripe apple, and like a steamed crab.

"Your Highness, what does the letter say?" Su Yu asked.

"Ah, nothing, anyway, it's very important information!" The princess put the letter away in a panic.

"Ahem." She coughed twice, and her expression returned to normal: "Anyway, thank you Nemesis."

"Everything is for the empire." Su Yu answered immediately.

"Ding! Congratulations on completing [Glory of the Plantagenet Empire (15/100)] and receiving 1,000 bonus experience points."

"The next round of tasks will start in 40 minutes, so stay tuned!"

"Another 40 minutes to wait," Su Yu said helplessly.

But he didn't forget about the questionnaire axis.

Su Yu asked: "Your Highness, I found a scroll in the secret compartment of Duke Sefer's study. This scroll is too old and is about to expire. I want to ask if there is any way to extend its useful life?"

Su Yu took the scroll out of his backpack and handed it to Kelderon.

Kelderon took it on a silver tray and handed it to the princess.

The princess took the scroll and played with it for a while, and immediately recognized it as the [Sixth-level Temporary Experience Scroll].

She shook her head: "I'm sorry, Nemesis, I don't have a way to extend its useful life, Morning Star, do you have one?"

"Me neither." Morning Star shook his head.

"Is that so?" Su Yu sighed slightly.

"But." The princess changed the subject: "After returning to Plantagenet City, I can give you a brand new one as a thank you gift for this trip to Maple Leaf City!"

"Ding! It is detected that [Princess Alice] has a favorability of more than 10 points towards you, and you can open [Prepayment of Task Rewards]."

"Ding! [Princess Alice] prepays you the rewards for the 20th and 25th rounds of the main storyline [Glory of the Plantagenet Empire]: [Sixth-level Temporary Experience Scroll], do you accept it?"

"This!!!"

Su Yu was overjoyed!

I didn't expect the princess to give him a brand new [Sixth-level Temporary Experience Scroll]!

Although he sacrificed the rewards for the 20th and 25th rounds of the main storyline, he still felt it was worth it!

With this scroll and plated it in gold, he has a trump card to save his life in the real world, which is really more important than anything else!

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Su Yu said happily.
