Chapter 2423 Murder
At first glance, the middle-aged elf in a rich uniform looked arrogant, but his tiger eyes swept across the crowd in the lobby, scaring some of the novice adventurers into hiding and not daring to look at him.
Most of the older adventurers continued to look like they were watching a show, with their arms folded, leaning against the wall, craning their necks, or standing on tiptoes to look around.
Their expressions are also different, some are sneering, some are sneering, some are frowning and dissatisfied, and some are observing my expression and winking at me from time to time.
The older adventurers who made eye contact with me were all those I had dealt with before or were still dealing with, mainly palace guards.
By the way, I have to mention here that the Moonlight City Palace Guards not only protect the safety of the palace, but during their shifts, like other adventurers, they also hunt monsters in the dungeon to upgrade and increase their strength.
The difference is that the palace guards are not allowed to join the private adventurer guild, but are concentrated in the special adventurer guild established by the royal family. This adventurer guild is small in scale and belongs to the medium-sized adventurer guild level. The adventurer guild claims to the outside world that , belong to the guild affiliated with the Legion of Roses, but in fact, they only obey the orders of the two majesties.
Those older elf adventurers who have seen the storms and waves disdain the pressure of middle-aged elves, let alone this group of palace guards who frequently meet with the highest authority group in Moonlight City.
Although the two queens are not seen often, officials at all levels, aristocratic families, top nobles, aloof royals, and elders whose status is second only to the two queens, they meet at least once every day, and these Compared to the big guys, a mere aristocrat doesn't even count. He can only show off his authority in front of a newbie.
Like father, like son, this is absolutely true.
After the middle-aged elf scanned everyone's expressions, he fixed his gaze on Princess Aurora's face, and then walked straight towards the princess. The stupid young man who was running rampant and looking at everyone in front of him seemed like nothing, Marion Dahle and Marion Dahle. He is simply printed from the same mold.
As a result, he was also stopped by Mi Lulu's battle ax after not taking a few steps. However, this guy was much more arrogant than Marion Dahle. He glared at first and tried to force Mi Lulu back with his momentum. After the result, he immediately adjusted his tactics and shouted: "Get out of the way!"
Mi Lulu remained unmoved, glanced at him lightly, and said coldly: "Stop, if you have anything to say, just say it here."
"My master tells you to get out of the way, so just go away and don't stay here."
The sound stopped suddenly. A certain rude scoundrel next to the head of the Marion family suddenly opened his eyes in horror and covered his neck. In the middle of his throat, a multi-edged crossbow arrow was inserted, and the arrow was bleeding. There was blood and bright red foam flowing out, like soapy water dyed with red paint.
"Not bad" I praised Lilea with a smile.
Lilea blinked her starry eyes with an innocent look on her face, as if everything that just happened had nothing to do with her.
"Who! Who is it!" The middle-aged elf was shocked and angry, and shouted loudly: "Who is so bold that you dare to kill my servant! Do you really think that there is no one in the Marion family!"
The middle-aged elf roared in anger, only to receive disdainful snorts and sneers from everyone.
When the guards of the Marion family saw that their master was furious, they all drew their swords out of their scabbards with a wink, and protected Marion Dahle in the middle.
Seeing that his power could not affect everyone, the middle-aged elf once again turned his attention to Princess Aurora and said coldly: "Did your people shoot the arrow just now?"
Princess Aurora looked at him with pity, as if looking at a fool.
On this point, I deeply agree. The patriarch of the Marion family who keeps showing off his authority is really a fool, right?
This time of summoning troops to investigate crimes, if it were placed in other towns, it would be fine, but where is this? Moonlight City Capital! Moonlight City is the only imperial city!
At the foot of the imperial city, how dare you do this?
Now I deeply doubt whether this Marion family was a big noble in some small or medium-sized town before moving to the capital? Are you a nouveau riche who uses money and connections to buy status? Only a family with no background would choose a person with such no background to be the head of the family.
Those wealthy and powerful families with truly deep roots would not support such a stupid young man even if they support the puppet head. God knows if one day they will suddenly show their wits and bring about a catastrophe to the family.
Seeing Princess Aurora looking at him with such contempt, he was very unhappy. The next second, he planned to rush over and give this dwarf girl a lesson.
But if you want to get close, you must first get past Mi Lulu, so the head of the Marion family raised his hand angrily and grabbed Mi Lulu's little hand holding the ax handle.
Mi Lulu snorted coldly, turned the ax, and struck it horizontally. This sudden change was unexpected by the Marion family. With a muffled pop, the middle-aged head of the family was knocked away by the axe. He went out and fell heavily on the marble floor two meters away.
Seeing the master of the house being beaten, the guards were stunned for a few seconds, then suddenly screamed strangely and swarmed towards Mi Lulu.
Mi Lulu was also unambiguous. An ax danced like a whistling wind, and it was a killing move. After a few axes, all the bones and tendons of the guards were broken. The better ones still had breath and could use the ground. A few words of suicide note were written in blood on the body, and the unlucky ones burped on the spot, and even worse ones, not even the whole body was left.
It stands to reason that killing someone in an adventurer base is a serious crime, but it also depends on who commits the crime. If it were the two queens and several elders, let alone a few people, even if they went on a killing spree with rivers of blood, no one would order it. Their crime, after all, the entire Moonlight City belongs to these few people.
Of course, if the God of Creation suddenly comes to the world at this time and declares several people guilty, the staff of the Adventurer Base will definitely send these people to the guillotine and make them plead guilty and punished. After all, even if they risk their lives, they will be killed. , the first service target of the Adventurer Base is the God of Creation, the old man.
Mi Lulu who committed the crime is neither His Majesty nor an elder, but she is the fiancée of the elder, which is equivalent to the elder committing the crime. Therefore, the staff of the adventurer base, including the team of guards who maintain order, are too lazy to step out into this muddy water. Some of them were hiding far away, watching the show with excitement just like the other people watching.
The mood of the onlookers was exciting, but the mood of the Marion family head was horrifying. No matter how stupid he was, he knew that committing murder in the adventurer base was a serious crime, but the guards of the base were hiding all the time. They were far away, as if they were a source of infectious disease. Once they were touched, they would be dead or disabled.
This phenomenon is very illustrative of the problem.
