Suppress monsters and save the world

Chapter 278
"Ulowana border uncle, what the hell is going on!"

"How could Viscount Carlos die in his own territory!"

"Did you get killed by a monster?"

The nobles on both sides couldn't bear to ask about the Urovana border again, and the hall was once again noisy.

This time, beside the king, there was a heroic warrior in iron armor. The warrior commander of the kingdom struck the ground with his sword and brought the scene back under control.

"Ulowana Border Boss, tell me in detail what's going on." The king still did not seriously reprimand those nobles for their disrespect for the royal family, but directly ordered Ulowana Border Boss to continue investigating the whole situation. thing.

"Yes, Your Majesty." The frontier uncle Urovana took a step forward, knelt down on one knee to the king in the center of the hall, and said with his right hand on his chest.

"The Knights of the Kingdom and my soldiers first launched a comprehensive search, and my men found the dead Viscount Carlos on the edge of the forest in the territory of Viscount Carlos, and about 20 cavalrymen also died together. There.

Nearby, we didn't find any suspicious traces, but we then checked Viscount Carlos' wounds, and all of them were surprisingly consistent. They were almost penetrated by some kind of weapon or magic, and the wounds caused by them were small in front. , but the deeper it goes into the body, the greater the damage it will cause.

At present, it is not yet known exactly what kind of attack could cause such a wound. "

After finishing speaking, Uncle Ulowana did not raise his head. He was waiting for punishment, but there was still no result after such a long time. He had to shoulder a lot of responsibility.

"Everyone, do you have any impressions of the wounds described by Urovana Border Commissioner?" After the king learned about it, he continued to ask all the nobles present.

After the two quarrels, the nobles are now a little more at peace, just whispering among the few people below, but no one has an idea, and they have never heard of how such a wound could be caused.

"When will the corpse arrive in the capital?" A nobleman wanted to see the wound with his own eyes.

"It's already on the way, and it will take three more days, Lord Raven." It was the mainstay of the nobles, the Marquis Raven, who asked the border count of Urovana.

"In three days, most of the nobles still have to manage their own territories. Uncle Wuluowana, don't you have to deal with the empire's attack at any time? I'm afraid we don't have enough time." Marquis Raven pulled Face, what you say is for everyone present.

The intention of Marquis Lei Wen's words was unknown, but it made the warrior commander frown.

The king just sighed: "Hey, do you find anything else, Uncle Ulowana Border."

"Yes, Your Majesty, there is a village near the place where Viscount Carlos died, Tun Village. I sent people there to inquire about the situation, but still did not get any valuable information. I only confirmed that Viscount Carlos was indeed killed. dead."

"Really." The king stretched out his hand to stroke his beard, but did not continue speaking.

There was a real stalemate now, and they were unable to take effective action without knowing the identity of the attacker.

"From the perspective of motivation, I think it is very likely to be a person from the empire. Apart from the empire, I don't think anyone would dare to kill the nobles of the kingdom."

Since there is no definite evidence, all that remains is speculation.

Several nobles immediately agreed with this view.

"That's not necessarily true." However, someone immediately raised an objection, and it was Earl Lipton, the most despised among the nobles, a utterly treacherous villain, which made most nobles keep a respectful distance from him.

"Oh, does Liptonbe have any novel ideas?" Wuluowana asked Liptonbo in a bad tone.

"It's very simple, of course it's the mob! For example, what kind of Tern village, if they killed Carlos, of course they can't ask anything." Lipton responded to Ulowa with a sly smile That border guy.

"Stupid, a group of peasants, it's impossible to kill Viscount Carlos!" Urovana's frontier uncle sneered at Lipton's words.

"Littonbo, I think it's very difficult for a group of unarmed people to defeat Lord Carlos who is guarded by twenty cavalry." The kingdom's warrior commander, Gazef, also explained the irrationality in Liptonbo's words in a calm tone. .

"Who knows if they used some method to kill a person, it's very simple, or, it couldn't be that magic caster named Ainz Ooal Gown who did it before. Didn't he just appear in the territory of Viscount Carlos?" Littonberg continued to defend his sophistry, and casually brought Ainz into it.

Soldier Captain Gazef, who had been rescued by Ainz in the previous operation and witnessed who Ainz was, immediately became serious when he heard this: "Litonber, I hope you will pay attention to your words and deeds, Ainz Ooal Mr. Gong is definitely not the kind of person you said!"

"Who knows." Littonbo still taunted in his own way, not paying any attention to the eyes of other nobles looking at him.

"Okay! That's all for now, Uncle Ulowana, then you will continue to be in charge of the investigation of Carlos with the Knights of the Kingdom. All nobles above the marquis will stay in the capital for seven days. Go down."

"Yes, follow His Majesty's order."

"Yes, follow His Majesty's order."

When the kingdom gave an order, all the nobles retreated.

The border uncle Ulowana hesitated for a moment, looked up at the king, and finally retreated.

After everyone left, the king sighed again, picked up the scepter at the side, and stood up from the throne with support.

"Your Majesty, be careful." Gazef wanted to help the king, but the king refused.

"Gadeff, my body has not reached that point yet. It's just that in troubled times, fatigue is inevitable."

"Your Majesty the King." As a warrior, Gazef didn't know how to comfort the king.

In this way, Gazef accompanied the king and left the hall, and walked towards the king's room in the corridor of the royal castle.

Suddenly, on reaching a window, the king stopped, looked out of the window,

Gazef stopped together in bewilderment, and followed the king's eyes to look out of the window, but saw nothing except a garden.

The dazzling sunlight outside is shining in the garden, and the gardener is taking good care of each flower. However, because he treats each flower equally, each flower does not feel the care of the gardener.

The king was silent for a while: "Gazef."

"Yes, Your Majesty the King."

"Gazef, you are the person I trust most." The king said to Gazef without looking back, looking out the window.
