Chapter 1364: 1351. A Conspiracy Revealed Accidentally
Chapter 1364 1351. A conspiracy revealed by accident
As the hunt for undead warlocks unfolded throughout the city, the city-wide raid in Ruyt City not only caught a few hidden undead warlocks, but also thoroughly plowed some of the underground world in Ruyt City. Even the thieves' union, which makes a living by selling information, was not spared this time.
Many thieves, crooks, and street gangsters who often extort money, lined up every day to enter the prison of the guard camp.
After the underground prison of the guard camp was filled, Edgar the Beard accelerated the trial of these thieves and liars. Once convicted, they would be sent to the town of Hatangada on the Ganbu plane, where the ruins of Takalai town It requires a lot of labor to clean up. Of course, these prisoners cannot eat and drink for free in the prison. They will all be sent to Takale to dig stones.
Samila has been looking for Viscount Duwei all over the world for the past two days. Unfortunately, this Viscount Duwei seems to have disappeared out of thin air in Ruyt City. He often finds some clues, and then suddenly ends somewhere.
This makes the half-elf archer look down all day...
Nika's light magic has the effect of restraining the blood plague. Although the plague has subsided, Suldak still asked her to transfer this light purification technique to magic parchment to make a magic scroll Store in a magic box.
Sia has a lot of experience in drawing magic scrolls, thanks to the magic masks she made for water-based magic skin care.
Almost every piece is drawn by Xi Ya herself, and some things are naturally very familiar after doing a lot.
With the help of Siya, Nika quickly made dozens of magic scrolls of purification.
Although the source of the plague has been cleaned up in time, nearly two hundred wells in the city have been polluted.
Under an order from Suldak, almost all of these centuries-old wells in the slums were filled with sand and gravel by the Mukusuo construction team.
In order to solve the water problem in the slums, Suldak purchased nearly 500 water-gathering magic rune boards from local magic merchants. These water-type magic rune boards will be installed on the water-logging walls of every street pool in the city. On the street, and this kind of square trough-shaped pools have sprung up at every street corner in the city.
The inland river in the city will also be completely dredged this time.
Luke, who was in charge of the dredging work, did not expect that there were still some ooze monsters hidden in the foul-smelling silt deposited at the bottom of the river.
If it weren’t for the clearing of the inland river in the city this time, no one would know that such a strange creature appeared in the inland river in Ruyt City.
Magicians call this kind of snot-like species that can be completely hidden in muddy water as ooze monsters, while ordinary residents like to call them water ghosts. They usually lie in the mud under the river bed, and their recipes are very heterogeneous, basically Eat everything, river bottom water snails and small fish, and once there are children swimming in the river, they will occasionally change their taste.
This kind of monster is very difficult to catch, and the most effective method is to expose the bottom riverbed to the sun. They are like jellyfish, as long as they get out of the muddy water, they will die immediately.
The dredging project of the inland river was handed over to the Mukuso Construction Engineering Team this time. The kobold slaves are also very good at digging river channels.
Luke even proposed a very complete plan to transform the inland river. He planned to use the volcanic ash cement produced in the barren land of Hailansa City to smooth all the sides of the river, and then pave the cobblestones of Constantinople on the bottom of the river to completely change the river. The water quality of this inland river is closely related to the residents of the whole city.
And Ruyt City has also regained its former prosperity during these vigorous reconstruction processes.
…
Suldak is replying to an investigation report. The death toll statistics report in this slum clearly shows 6,347 people. This is only the lowest slum in Ruyt City, and it is still Based on statistics from the resident population, it is impossible to investigate how many of those unregistered outsiders died.
He closed his eyes and touched his heavy forehead.
At this time, Samira and Carrie Decker walked into the office of the city hall side by side. Carrie Decker excitedly said to Suldak:
"Head, that Viscount Du Wei was captured by us!"
Suldak suddenly raised his head, stared at Carrie Decker, and asked very curiously: "Where has he been hiding these past few days? There should be no chance to leave the city, right?"
"In the basement of the hotel on the south side of the central square, if we are one step late, this guy will escape to the Ganbu plane through the portal." Carrie Decker sat on the chair opposite the desk, tight-fitting The leather pants wrapped around the long legs and overlapped.
"How did you find this hidden place?" Suldak asked again.
Carrie Decker said proudly: "Of course it is a report, otherwise no one would have found this kind of place. In addition, this hotel belongs to the Attlee family's property. The person who reported it was worried that he would be implicated by Viscount Du Wei, so he found it." us."
Suldak nodded, and ordered: "You immediately write a search warrant, and then bring it to me for signature, Siya, have someone notify all members of the House of Representatives, and hold a temporary voting meeting in the afternoon."
Sia, who was sitting outside, walked in and said:
"Okay! But... Boss, there are many councilors who haven't returned to Ruyt City..."
Suldak waved his hand and said: "Don't bother with them, just keep informing me as usual. I need someone to pay for this incident. Viscount Du Wei's part of the property alone is not enough. I really hope that the Attlee family will be involved this time. More, Samira, you continue to investigate the members of the Attlee family, and try to find breakthroughs from those family members, and it is best to find a few big fish. I hope these families can contribute to the reconstruction of Ruyt City. Take it hard."
"Understood." Samira leaned against the window, looking at the flower beds in the yard outside the window.
…
In the afternoon, Edgar the Bearded sent Viscount Du Wei's confession to Suldak.
After looking through some of Viscount Duwei's statements, Suldak realized that the abomination cultivated by the necromancers in his territory was the core of the whole plan...
In Viscount Duwei's plan, when the necromancers cast the plague of blood in the city, this abomination and hundreds of ghouls will also appear in Ruyt City. After the earl's body, it will have part of the wisdom and memory of the old earl Benton, and it will command hundreds of ghouls to rush into the slums.
As the plague of blood spreads gradually in the slums, ghouls quickly occupy the slums under the cover of morning fog, and more ghouls will appear at that time.
And the abomination will also devour a large number of poor corpses in the slums, and evolve into an existence equivalent to a sixth-order monster.
As long as the number of ghouls soars to a certain number, everyone can stop the plague in Ruyt City,
Ruit City will also become a dead city in the Tarapakan area.
The aristocrats who survived this plague event can gain a little fat from their family territory. After all, the whole city is dead, and no one will know whoever occupies the territory.
Viscount Du Wei and the surviving nobles will save the city again.
In Viscount Du Wei's plan, there are three loopholes that he never expected.
The first loophole was discovered when digging the grave of the old Earl Benton secretly.
In addition, Nathaniel, the chief of the guard battalion, was transferred away, so that an inconspicuous investigation report in the slum area fell into the eyes of Carrie Decker and Suldak.
In the end, the necromancer hiding in the city was discovered by Suldak and asked Samira to investigate it himself.
It is also for these reasons, and under the pressure from the guard battalion, Viscount Du Wei is ready to implement the plan ahead of schedule.
It was at this time that Suldak took the Constructed Knight to find the altar for cultivating abominations in the territory. Viscount Duwei knew that the abominations from the manor could not be smuggled to the city of Ruyt, so he entered Ruyt overnight. Encourage those necromancers to launch the plague attack plan.
Seeing this, Suerdak closed the sheepskin booklet and signed his name on the judgment attached to the confession.
On the third day after Viscount Du Wei was arrested, he was tied to the stake in the square in front of the Magic Union by the executioner of the Law Enforcement Corps...
He will be judged by the Magic Union Law Enforcement Team for the crime of endangering the safety of taboo magic.
As for why the judgment was not signed by Suldak, the main reason is that Viscount Du Wei is a nobleman. Even if the crime is heinous, it is still very troublesome to impose the death penalty. Submit the memorandum to the imperial capital.
But the magic union does not need such complicated procedures. The head of the law enforcement team only needs to send the judgment to the magic union in Bena City, and the judgment can be executed immediately.
