Chapter 123 The Past and Murderers
Someone in the Conference Hall exclaimed in a low voice, this is not a turbulent maritime battlefield, It is possible to kill hundreds of people in a small naval battle.
“Newern Harbor” is not only the port city of the Kingdom’s Ranked First, but also a naval port where the kingdom’s most elite naval fleet is stationed! It has always shown people with a prosperous and open face, and it is also a window to the outside world of Faretis.
The number of victims as high as forty-five people in one night is enough to cause a major earthquake in “Newern Harbor”.
Ignoring the babble of the audience after hearing the number, Miss Laura continued:
“The victims did not have any common characteristics, including workers, businessmen, old people, children, Girls, students, and nobles, almost all the people.
And the perpetrators are very rampant, and they leave the corpse in place after the attack. According to our agent’s report, the corpse of every victim is, How can I describe it, it’s very abstract!”
Hearing her spitting out the adjective “abstract” with a weird expression, for some reason, all the great characters in the room felt a chill behind their backs.
“Ma’am, do you have any clues or guesses now? Who is responsible for such a murder?”
A representative of the Noble Association seemed to think of something, He stood up and asked with a solemn face.
At the same time, many participants in the Conference Hall over the age of 30 looked a little unnatural.
“I’m so sorry sir, we don’t have any witnesses or clues, and we don’t know who the culprit is. The culprit is like a ghost, who appears out of thin air and disappears after committing the crime, if not for the slightest No clue, the city hall will not ask you for help!”
tone barely fell , someone has already put forward their own proposition, or the gentleman of the Noble Association:
“I I think we should lock down the city and find this daring murderer!”
“Yes, no crime leaves no trace at all. We will use all our strength to search every corner of the city, and we will be able to Find the murderer and take revenge for the citizens who died!”
“”
Headed by the representatives of the Noble Association, although the keep on saying is condemning the perpetrators, it intentionally or unintentionally advances in advance To characterize this incident as an ordinary serial murder case, at best, the number of victims is somewhat unusually large.
Some of the lower-level attendees, encouraged by their words, followed in solidarity.
However, this irresponsible rhetoric aroused one person’s dissatisfaction.
dong! dong! dong!
The sound of fingers tapping on the conference table interrupted their next words.
The representative of the arakkoa army, an old man with a straight back and sharp eyes, although his hair was slightly gray, stood up.
Both of his hands supported the table, eagle-like eyes looked around at everyone present, a hard to describe imposing manner rose from him and enveloped the entire Conference Hall.
absolute silence
“Heh–! Although I don’t really want to admit it, but as the chief arakkoa guarding the dark side of this city, I must remind me of forgetfulness. All of you.
The tragedy eight years ago could not have been avoided because we, like ostriches, burrowed our heads into the sand and pretended to be invisible!
Especially Some of the gentlemen among us should review their words and deeds, will they mislead everyone and create more trouble for the real solution?!”
Hearing the old man’s words, the great characters present thought to themselves. Key words and vivid pictures popped out in an instant. What I once tried to forget quickly resurfaced from the bottom of my heart, and more clearly than ever before!
“About eight years ago? Serial murders? Murderers?”
“The Wells family?”
“Evil God sacrifice?!”
“The fallen god of opera!”
The representative of the Noble Association took out his handkerchief and kept wiping the sweat from his forehead, and said reluctantly: “Diesel. Your Excellency, you are joking. The Wells family, which is in contact with Evil God, has been disappeared as early as eight years ago, how can those damn ‘killers’ run out again at this time?!”
Diesel is also the chief officer of the arakkoa of Newyn Harbor, and he didn’t even bother to look at him. As a barrier between mortals and Transcendent World, how could he not know what role these guys from the Noble Association played in that incident? At this time, the incident was repeated, how could he give these guys a good look?
Just as he was about to continue his inference, a voice suddenly sounded in the Conference Hall.
“It’s the box of dead souls!
It’s the box that the Wells family held for a short time after the sacrifice to Evil God eight years ago and finally disappeared!”
The person who spoke was the representative of the Imperial Family Navy Academy. He stood up and bowed slightly to everyone present to give a salute.
“Princeton Principal was in our city before and captured the fluctuation of the box due to the burst of power. Unfortunately, he went a step late, and he continued to track it, but he could no longer find it.
>
Until the ‘Dead Soul Box’ really released those murderers again, we were sure that it did not leave, but was hiding in a corner of Newern Harbor.”
Speaking At that time, his eyes were also on the side of the Noble Association. Although the box ran away ahead of time, the bodies of sea hunters and noble private soldiers everywhere were difficult to hide.
It is not difficult to guess what happened here after a little speculation
It is obvious that the Noble Association or some of its members knew about the Death Soul Box much earlier than everyone present. whereabouts.
But he didn’t report it with some selfish thoughts, but wanted to secretly take it for himself. There is nothing wrong with having ambition and success, at least it shows that they have the ability to match their ambition.
But with the emergence of “murderers”, it has been shown that they have failed very thoroughly. This makes people a little angry, angry at their wanton behavior, and even more angry at this mess that they have to clean up because of their incompetence!
It’s just that it’s not the time to be held accountable for the time being.
For a time, the huge Conference Hall was silent.
Few of you here are unaware of renowned “Dead Souls Box”. The few who had experienced it eight years ago knew even more about it.
Because the short period of eight years is far from enough to erase the damage that this strange thing has caused to the city, and the deep scars left in people’s hearts.
“Do you have any evidence to prove that the ‘Dead Soul Box’ reappeared?
Be aware that if the ‘Dead Soul Box’ reappears, it means that This incident involves an Evil God, which is enough to rate it as a ‘disaster incident’, we must report it to the kingdom!”
I took office after the incident eight years ago, and it does not count the beginning and the end of the incident. Rupert Murdoch, the well-understood Newernport governor, got up and asked.
As the manager of the city, he must be the first responsible person in this matter, and he has to consider it carefully.
