Chapter 523 Big Review (13)

The Imperial Capital Library ushered in a comprehensive inspection, which was so strict and powerful that even several ministers and nobles in the upper city came here to inquire about the situation.

They cautiously asked Earl Phoenix what he was going crazy... To put it mildly, was there another ignorant guy who made this respectable old man angry?

And after learning that five fake copies had been found in the precious rare book collection room of the Imperial Capital Library, even these ministers and nobles couldn't calm down.

This matter can be big or small.

From the imperial guards, patrolling knights, mirror sea guards, and the two departments of truth and gnosis, all of them will be defeated. If Axel comes out to reprimand, all the departments responsible for the defense and intelligence work of the imperial capital will be completely dead. If there is an earthquake, maybe a few people will be arrested and beheaded and hanged.

In the final analysis, what this matter means is that even in the imperial capital, which is so strictly guarded and protected by many intelligence organizations, there are still people who can unknowingly transfer the people who are under heavy protection and receive the most attention. Treasures and collections are stolen quietly - what are these intelligence organizations doing?Where did the imperial capital have so much funds and so many appropriations play a role?

And a little smaller... Earl Phoenix himself may be fine. After all, he is so old and has no official job, but the current librarian and all related personnel will probably be suspended on the spot to perform crimes and meritorious deeds. Watch the Kuroshio next to the dark mountains.

Just now, Earl Phoenix subconsciously exploded out of his ability known as "Phoenix Form" because of his anger. Bursting and manifesting.

In fact, the old earl had already suppressed his anger very well. This huge power was withdrawn after only a moment of manifestation, which only stimulated the defense program of the library.

However, Ian observed a strange change—just now Earl Phoenix was the center, and the space around the old man showed some distortion similar to the 'virtual realm'.

If Ian hadn't been to the Void Realm recently, he might not have noticed this small change.

This may be quite important information, maybe it is some secret of the great nobles?

Write it down first.

"...Do you understand! Everyone will report to me about all the recent movements. The lie detector psyker will be here soon. Don't expect any of you to escape!"

"Yes! Curator, we understand!"

At this moment, Earl Phoenix had just put down the neck of the current curator, his youngest son, who had been strangled by the neck with one hand and slapped several times.

Everyone didn't care about this nobleman who was theoretically the real curator, and just stood there respectfully.

And the current curator, who was slapped seven or eight times by his father, although his mouth was full of blood and a few teeth fell out, but his face was full of rejoicing-the library lost lone books under his management, more than Yi Yi, the moment he knew about this, he doubted whether he would be murdered righteously by his father, or strangled to death with his own hands.

It's just a few slaps now, probably because there are still guests today.If this is the case, the old man will probably be able to get rid of the fire after returning home, at most he will be paralyzed.

And Earl Phoenix's lingering anger still persisted. He was still looking at the leader of the Knights of the Book Guard on the other side with his dangerous golden eyes, and pinched the great knight's neck with one hand extremely skillfully, and roared: "Did you guys grow up eating garbage! You can't even find out about this kind of thing! Five books were lost! Five books! (The count found two more books when he went back to check)"

Actually nine.Ian thought so, but even he didn't dare to say it out. Let the old earl know about it. It is estimated that a row of people will be hung up at the entrance of the library today to turn it into a barbecue.

"The curator...the subordinate...is wrong..."

This regiment leader is also a great knight of the third level, and he is well-known in the imperial capital. He is a big man, but in the hands of Earl Phoenix, who has strength, merit and status, he is almost the same as an ant. The armor neck guard, which is strong enough to withstand the bombardment of the battleship's main guns, is no different from mud when the old man grabs it casually: "Subordinate... swear..."

The captain was strangled by the neck, and could only use the source quality to vibrate the air to make a sound, but even the source quality appeared intermittently under the fluctuation of Earl Phoenix's overflow, the smell of coke came from his body, and even half of the body's armor appeared. A hot melting reaction occurred, turning into molten steel and falling to the ground.

Seeing this scene, Ian's thought was not funny, but a very simple question.

——Does the fourth energy level have such rights and authority... This is still in the imperial capital. If it is in his own territory, what is the difference between Earl Phoenix and a god to ordinary people?
And to be honest, regardless of the misery of the two people who were beaten, for the sublimated, it was essentially just a few slaps on the palms of the parents with a ruler, which can be regarded as a small punishment and a big warning.

Ascendants are so tough, look at the official curator over there who had four or five teeth knocked out, rubbed his chin, and all the teeth grew back.

And here, as Earl Phoenix let go of his hand, the head of the Knights, whose body was half roasted, cooled down in less than three seconds, and the black powder on his charred body fell off, revealing The slender neck that has been regenerated.

No Adam's apple?She was actually a female knight.

As for the molten steel that is about to vaporize?That didn't even burn the great knight's skin.From this, it can be seen how terrifying the heat that Earl Phoenix almost cooked the great knight was.

"It's really scary."

Ian thought so.

No matter how approachable such a high-level sublimator is, if he is not careful, he treats ordinary people with the same attitude as other sublimated people...I am afraid that ordinary people in a village or a small city will be wiped out in an instant .

You can't even say that he is malicious. For him, this kind of strength is probably similar to slapping a mosquito casually.

They have to control their powers very, very carefully to be able to live with normal people.

"It's no wonder that above the Midtown, there's an Uptown... The ascensionists of this level probably live there."

The Earl of Phoenix had calmed down at this moment, his body relaxed, and the aura that did not cause any temperature change, but gave everyone a burning sensation in their spirits and souls dissipated.

Snapped!He gave himself a slap, and this slap scared everyone on the spot, even more fearful than when he punished the curator and the head of the knights before—the knights knelt down and chanted in grief, "Subordinates!" Damn it! ', and the same is true for those library staff, shivering and kneeling on the spot.

——The old earl can even attack himself, let alone them?
But Earl Phoenix ignored them, he turned around and left the group of kneeling people on the spot.

"Smiled."

After seeing Ian and a group of goblins watching the excitement with emotion, the old man who recovered his white hair was quite tired and said: "Damn, I didn't expect the inner ghost to hide very deep. I tried it several times, but I didn't feel any emotional changes. .”

"Strange, even if you are not afraid of my disciplinary methods, basically everyone will have an abnormal emotional change when they see me hitting myself, whether it's 'this old man is putting on a show' or 'gloating' or feeling 'embarrassed' and 'Fear', there will always be some signs... I have studied emotions and souls for so many years, and my grasp of this aspect should be quite accurate."

"Why is there no response?" He was lost in thought.

"Calm down." Mo Feng comforted: "As long as you get the book back, it doesn't matter. Since they are replacing fakes, they must need the real ones—they may value books more than these library staff. !"

The two parties are indeed old friends. This is indeed the right place to comfort. Hearing this, Earl Phoenix's expression eased a lot: "Yes. Indeed, but we still need to find the thief first, and then try to prevent him from destroying the stolen property. Orphan."

But he still sighed deeply: "Oh, it's still my negligence..."
