Transcendent David
Chapter 636 Investigation
There are dozens of guards standing around Atkins Castle. These are soldiers transferred from the nearest city of Salo. Their task is to protect the scene and not allow anyone to approach.
Inside Atkins Castle, there was a cold white mist permeating.
The origin of these white mists are the various magic circles arranged in the castle. The magic circles maintain the temperature inside Atkins Castle at about zero degrees, so that the scene will not make the body FǔBài due to the heat.
At least until investigators are sent by the Noble Affairs Office, it must remain in the state of being discovered.
This is also a standard operation. Since the tragedy of Atkins Castle was discovered, the nearest city of Salo has arranged all this.
The Minister of Noble Affairs of Gershwin stood outside the castle. He was not a professional investigator, but came to coordinate the relationship between the Noble Affairs Office and the locality, so that the follow-up investigators of the Noble Affairs Office could act more conveniently when they arrived.
"Come!" The Gershwen Minister of Noble Affairs raised his head and looked to the sky. In the sky, a'Xingkong Feizhou' was descending, and that'Xingkong Feizhou' belonged to the Department of Noble Affairs.
The'Starry Sky Flying Boat' hovered in the air, seeming to have checked the situation of the castle in the air, and then slowly landed on the open space in front of the castle.
The Minister of Noble Affairs of Gershwin greeted him with a smile, but when he saw the person who came down, the smile on his face disappeared.
The first person who came down from the starry sky was a middle-aged man wearing the office gown of the Noble Affairs Office. This middle-aged man had sharp eyes and looked like an eagle when he looked at people.
This middle-aged man is the Investigation Minister Dryden of the Noble Affairs Office, and one of the opponents of the Gershwin Noble Affairs Minister.
There is not much hatred between the investigative minister of Dryden and the minister of noble affairs of Gershwin, but they belong to two different camps of the noble affairs office.
Wherever there are people, there are factions, and so does the Noble Affairs Office.
So when the Gershwin Minister of Noble Affairs saw Dryden's investigation minister, his original good mood disappeared.
However, when he saw the investigative minister of Dryden turned around to help the next person, the Minister of Noble Affairs Gershwin hurried forward.
"Master Icks alchemist, why did you come here in person?" Gershwin noble affairs minister bowed and said.
"This time the Noble Affairs Office takes it very seriously, so it arranged for me to come over!" Master Ix alchemy smiled and nodded back.
The Minister of Investigation of Dryden glanced at the Minister of Noble Affairs of Gershwin. In fact, the main reason why Ix alchemist came here in person instead of arranging an alchemist to come was the main reason that his superior invited him.
On the one hand, the Baron family was destroyed. The nature of this case was extremely bad, and the Noble Affairs Office needed to give the nobles an explanation.
On the other hand, there are also reasons why the Minister of Noble Affairs of Gershwin was involved.
When the Noble Affairs Office received the report on the case, it used the intelligence network of the Godly Great World to investigate the relationship network of the Atkins family first.
It focused on investigating all the forces that have hatred with the Atkins family, and found that the most suspicious is the Luce family.
The new baron of the Luce family, Baron Arthur, did not receive the noble education of the gods in the great world, but lived in the Star Federation.
From the perspective of people of the great world of God, places like the Star Federation are God's abandoned land. Without the protection of the gods, the souls of Star Federation people are extremely vulnerable to evil thoughts.
This kind of murder of the baron family is extremely rare in the godly world. People in the godly world rarely do this, and only Baron Arthur from the Interstellar Federation has a high probability of doing so.
When it was found here, the Dryden investigation minister discovered that Baron Arthur had a close relationship with the Gershwin Minister of Noble Affairs.
Baron Arthur and the Minister of Noble Affairs of Gershwin were originally supposed to have an official relationship, but after finishing his mission, the Minister of Noble Affairs of Gershwin actually stayed at Luce Castle, and at the same time wanted to influence Atkins through his own relationship. family.
After the Dryden investigative minister discovered this, he was overjoyed, and he judged that Baron Arthur was very likely to be involved in the case.
Once it is confirmed that Baron Arthur is the murderer of the Atkins Castle murder case, then the Gershwin Minister of Noble Affairs will be implicated, and then they will suppress it, which can completely cause the Gershwin Minister of Noble Affairs and the forces behind it to be hit hard. .
It is precisely for this reason that Dryden's investigation minister applies to his superiors, and Master Ix alchemy will follow.
In the past investigation cases, the alchemist would go to the scene to collect evidence. If the alchemist was unable to handle it, then the collected items would be handed over to the alchemist and the alchemist would handle it in the workshop.
You must know that the alchemist is very busy, in addition to his own research, there is a lot of work.
The Minister of Noble Affairs of Gershwin was also very puzzled. The arrival of Master Ikers Alchemy made him smell an unusual smell.
"Master Icks alchemist's time is precious, Gershwin, don't block the work of the master!" Dryden's investigation minister said rudely.
The Minister of Noble Affairs of Gershwin glared fiercely at the Minister of Investigation of Dryden. The clash of eyes between the two made the atmosphere very tense.
Master Ix alchemy ignored the hostility between the two, his position in the noble affairs office was very detached, and he did not need to rely on any forces at all.
This time, if it hadn't been for Dryden's supervisor of the investigative minister to show him a favor, he would not come in person.
The Alchemist Master Ix walked to the door of Atkins Castle, the door was hidden. He took out a formation plate and held it in his hand, and the spirit activated the formation plate.
There was streamer flashing along the pattern above the array, and then a pattern composed of white light appeared above the array.
Seeing Master Ikers alchemy start to work, Dryden Investigation Minister and Gershvin Minister of Noble Affairs stopped looking at each other and quickly came to the side of Ikers Alchemist.
The alchemy master Ix walked into the castle holding the array, ignoring the corpse on the ground, only staring at the white light pattern projected by the array in his hand.
"Huh!" The alchemy master Icks walked for ten minutes, and after passing most of the castle, he let out a surprise.
"Master, is there any question?" Dryden's investigative minister asked quietly.
"This time the murderer is not a knight. There are no remaining soul fragments on the scene. It seems that all the souls have been cleaned up. Only the followers of Cthulhu will do this!" The Alchemist Master Ix explained in a deep voice.
"There are followers of evil gods!" Dryden's investigative minister's voice was surprised and delighted.
Surprised because once there are followers of Cthulhu, it will expand to the point where powerful knights are required to take action. If there are temple knights nearby, they will come first to deal with it.
He was delighted because he suspected that Baron Arthur was involved. If this is confirmed, then whether it is Baron Arthur or the Gershwin noble minister, it is not a simple murder.
"Go to the place where Baron Chapman was killed and take a look again, the soul fragments of the knight's death may still be preserved!" The Alchemist Ix did not continue to look for it, he said to the Minister of Investigation of Dryden.
"The place where Baron Chapman was killed was in the restaurant, where eight knights were killed together, come with me!" The Dryden Investigation Minister received a preliminary explanation of the case before he made a courtesy.
Master Ix alchemist nodded, and followed behind the Minister of Investigation in Dryden. At the end, the Minister of Noble Affairs Gershwin came to the restaurant together.
Although the Minister of Investigation of Dryden had seen the intelligence statement of the case, he still shuddered when he saw the scene in the restaurant.
The nine knights, including the blood from their war horses, stained the floor of the restaurant red.
If it hadn't been for the help of the ice circle to bring the temperature here to zero, the bloody smell in the restaurant would be unbearable.
The alchemist master Ix walked to the corpses of several knights, and the tragic condition of the corpses had no effect on him.
Every alchemist's growth process requires many experiments, and the bloodiness of these experiments far exceeds that here.
The Alchemist Ix, holding the array, walked over the corpses of every knight, and finally he came to the corpse of Baron Chapman, squatted down and placed the array on the head of Baron Chapman. .
However, the white light pattern on the array plate did not move at all, which disappointed Master Ix Alchemy.
"What I can do here is very limited. Without soul fragments, my role is not as good as your searcher!" Master Ix alchemy shook his head and put away the formation.
In general homicide cases, as long as people die at the scene, there will be soul fragments remaining, and soul fragments can be collected through a special magic circle.
Although the information that soul fragments can provide is not much, it can usually be traced back to the fragment before death.
Because before a person is killed, the emotion is the strongest. This strong emotion directly affects the soul, making this part of the soul fragments more difficult to disappear than the rest of the soul.
Of course, this time is also limited, usually after two days, the soul fragments will disappear.
At this time, it was less than two days before the crime happened, so it is impossible for so many victims without soul fragments to remain.
Knights like Baron Chapman, who are very close to the land knights, have soul strength far beyond ordinary people, and the remaining time of soul fragments should be longer.
Until now, the master Alchemist Ix was 100% sure that someone had cleaned the soul of the scene.
Apart from the priests of the temple, the only people with this ability are followers of the evil god.
"Excuse me, I asked my hand to come down and search!" The Drayden investigation minister bowed and thanked.
He waved his hand behind him, and the five investigators who followed him quickly went into work.
"Geshwen, I heard that you have been very close to Baron Arthur recently, and even you have made an alibi for Baron Arthur?" The Dryden Investigation Minister turned his head to his side while watching his investigation. Said the Minister of Noble Affairs of Gershwin.
"I don't need to report to you what friends I have!" Gershwin's minister of noble affairs replied hard.
"I don't care if you make friends, but Baron Arthur is a major suspect in this case. Have you considered the consequences?" Dryden's investigation minister asked in a deep voice.
The Minister of Investigation of Dryden said that this was asked in front of Master Ikers Alchemist, which was also his intention.
Afterwards, there was a certificate from the Alchemy Master Ix, which was much more useful than the evidence from the investigation.
"You can investigate the whereabouts of Baron Arthur, but you suspect a baron at will without evidence. Have you considered the consequences?" The Gershwin Minister of Noble Affairs was not at all empty and asked in the same tone. .
Although the Noble Affairs Office has great power, in the final analysis, the Noble Affairs Office is an organization that serves the nobles.
If you suspect a baron for no reason, conduct an investigation without any evidence, and if you don't get the due investigation conclusion, then the Drayden investigation minister will suffer the consequences of dismissal.
You must know that in the great world of Gods, the nobles are a privileged class, and the nobles have great power. Once someone dares to challenge the power of the nobles, they will be excluded by the noble system.
"I will have evidence!" The Dryden investigation minister said confidently.
The work of the investigators proceeded quickly, and reports were sent to the Minister of Investigation in Dryden.
The Minister of Investigation of Dryden looked at the report in his hand and was also secretly surprised.
"The murderer has an extremely sharp weapon, at least a third-level weapon, and even a fourth-level weapon, probably with the strength of a land knight, and at the same time has the means to clear the soul!
In addition, the treasury of the Atkins family has been emptied. There is no trace of damage to the treasury, and there may be alchemists involved!
Judging from the scene, the participation of Cthulhu followers is very likely. I want to report to the top and request manpower support!"The Dryden Investigation Minister said in a deep voice.
Master Iker Alchemist nodded in agreement, and the Minister of Noble Affairs of Gershwin saw that Master Iker Alchemist agreed, he would not say anything against it.
The Minister of Noble Affairs of Gershwin still had great confidence in David. He believed that this had nothing to do with David, because he saw with his own eyes that David had just carried out the Knight Enlightenment.
If the knight enlightenment, relying on David's extraordinary combat power, there is still a slight possibility, after the knight enlightenment, the extraordinary power will be suppressed by the knight's pattern, David just wants to act, and has no corresponding ability.
As for whether David has a helper, the Gershwin Minister of Noble Affairs is more aware.
He and Forbes priests brought David from the Star Federation to the Great World of Gods. In the Great World of Gods, there were no other people besides the people in Luce Castle.
Even if David wanted to get to know the followers of the evil god, there was no time to get in touch.
Therefore, after the Minister of Investigation of Dryden said that there were followers of evil gods at the scene, the Minister of Noble Affairs of Gershwin believed that David could not be involved in these matters.
"Master, please help open the liaison circle!" Dryden investigation minister bowed to Master Ick's alchemist and begged.
There are two ways to open the contact circle, one is the power of the bloodline, and the other is the spirit. The Dryden investigation minister is just an ordinary official, but he cannot open the contact circle.
