Chapter 537 Murder(2/3)
Su Lun felt hesitant to say it directly. Not only the highly mechanized giant city like Marfa, but also many cities in the Luying Empire were much bigger than this.
Looking over, the houses in the slums are all low, but the palace at the foot of the mountain is magnificent. The white dome is painted with gold paint, and it looks majestic even from a distance.
Su Lun looked up again. The city relied on a huge mountain range. Behind the palace was a snow-capped mountain that towered into the clouds and the top could not be seen.
Johnson introduced: "That's the Rocky Snow Mountains. The Silver Dragon that protects the country is in the cave at the top of the snow mountain. If you are lucky enough, you can see it soaring in the sky. But it only happens once every few years, most of the time.
It is all dormant.
"oh.
Su Lun took another look after hearing this.
The eighth-level silver dragon is already one of the most powerful creatures in the world. It is also because of this silver dragon that the Gracie family has been able to sit on the throne for thousands of years.
The flying dragon of the Miracle Legion landed in the acropolis outside the city. This is the place where the royal knights specialize in raising flying dragons. Su Lun saw tens of thousands of flying dragon knights. The strength of this Silver Dragon Kingdom is not weak.
After asking someone, Captain Bennett and the others arrived with a prison van last night. Deputy Commander Johnson took Su Lun to the city behind the high wall.
There are many people in the royal city and they are lively and noisy, but everything about the civilians here is very primitive. Even the enlarged version of Atlanta City before, there is nothing interesting to see.
After walking around for a while, Su Lun was taken to a high-end post house where distinguished guests were received to rest, saying that he was waiting to be summoned by the royal family.
He felt that Bennett should have informed the king of the matter, so he thought there was no harm in waiting.
After all, the petrification antidote formula he needs is still in the hands of his brother, the white-robed wizard Garcia-Hayden.
I didn't expect to wait for three days.
....
In the inn, Su Lun woke up from meditation, with confusion on his face: "It's strange, Bennett hasn't shown up yet."
Originally, he was thinking about how to explain the "Helen" problem to His Majesty the King in a tactful way, but he didn't expect that he was overthinking it.
After waiting for three long days, not only was he not summoned by the king, but Bennett did not show up again. In fact, no one from the Miracle Legion who had been seen before showed up.
This made Su Lun very strange.
He had made an appointment to come to the royal capital before, and Bennett said that he would give him some ancient books and nautical charts collected by his family, and even introduce him to borrow some materials from the library of the royal family and nobles.
Unexpectedly, I haven't seen anyone in the past three days.
Although the contact time was short, Suellen felt that Bennett was a very trustworthy person.
If there is any delay, I can understand it in a day or two.
Then on the third day, this is the problem. Even if they don't come, they will definitely send someone.
Moreover, for such a serious matter as "Plane Invasion", no matter how arrogant and extravagant the Silver Dragon King's royal family is, there should not be any reaction.
In this situation, there is probably something going on.
"It doesn't make sense, what kind of accident could happen?" Su Lun looked out the window, thinking in his eyes.
The lively and noisy streets in the distance are no different than usual.
The post house he stayed in was very high-end, usually a noble house that received envoys from the other two countries. Not only had he not been neglected in the past three days, he had also been treated to delicious food and drinks. His travels were not restricted, and he was notified.
There will be officials from the post house who will arrange the carriages and servants carefully and thoughtfully. There will also be beautiful maids who will serve you every detail. If it had been anyone else, it would have been a lively and wonderful day, and you would have been wasted without even realizing it.
However, Su Lun had no needs and was meditating almost all the time, so he became more and more aware that this feeling of being "forgotten" was abnormal.
He always felt that there seemed to be some undercurrent hidden under this calmness.
I asked through the communicator and found out that everything was normal with Senjou. She was walking through the corrupted forest full of monsters, honing her sword skills along the way.
On the Yongye side, we also leisurely headed north along the coastline. Although we encountered some sea monsters, everything went smoothly.
Li disposed of it.
Su Lun took another look at Master Crow in the room. It was very quiet and nothing was abnormal. A sudden thought came to his mind: "Am I overthinking?"
But it seems that other than waiting, there seems to be no other way to get the formula in the royal capital of Eklensa. Which is a coincidence.
Just when Su Lun was thinking, he suddenly noticed a person sneaking into the post house.
The reason why it was said to be sneaky was that the man came in by lying down in the guard's carriage in the post house.
Su Lun's perception covered a large area near the entire post house, so he could clearly perceive everything. He guessed: "A professional thief? He is very powerful."
The man's concealment skills were very clever, and he managed to sneak in even though the soldiers were deceived.
Su Lun didn't even expect that the guy climbed straight up from the outer wall towards his room. He was a roughly fourth-level assassin, and Su Lun didn't feel any threat.
He looked at the window with interest.
After a few breaths, I saw a hooded person dressed as an assassin walking in. She lifted her hood directly, and she looked pretty good, she was actually a female assassin?
Seeing how calm the people in the room were, the assassin seemed slightly surprised: This person didn't react when he noticed the assassin entering the room?
Before Suellen could speak, she directly introduced herself: "I am Bennett's sister Isabel."
When Su Lun heard this beginning, he immediately realized that something was wrong.
If you look closely, you will see that this female assassin does look a lot like Bennett.
Isabel saw that Su Lun had no reaction and asked again: "Are you Mr. Su Lun?" Su Lun nodded lightly: "Yes."
Isabel always felt that the cold reaction of the person in front of her was strange, but she said succinctly: "My brother was imprisoned after he came back, and I don't know why. But through my connections, I got the message he dragged out.
He asked me not to tell anyone, find you, and then remind you to "be careful."
"Let me be careful?"
Su Lun frowned when he heard this, but he wasn't very surprised.
It turns out that Bennett was locked up, no wonder he didn't show up. But why?
Because of that Princess Betsy thing? It doesn’t seem to be the case.
Isabel looked at Su Lun in a daze, and said urgently: "The current situation is unclear, and I don't know what happened. But my brother asked me to ensure your safety."
After a pause, she added: "I mean I think it's best for you to leave here now. It's best to avoid everyone. I'll take you away."
"leave?"
Su Lun was lost in thought as he listened.
He came to the royal capital of Eklensa for the petrochemical formula and the sea map. How could he possibly get these things if he really wanted to hide in hiding?
What's more, if he wants to leave, where does he need someone to take him?
..
Su Lun thought about it and asked directly: "Do you know where I can get the petrochemical antidote formula?"
Isabel didn't know why at such an urgent moment, not only was the guy in front of her not in a hurry, but he actually asked such a strange question.
But she also responded: "It is said that the formula is only in the hands of the royal capital's treasure house and uncle Garcia Hayden."
"oh.
Su Lun listened and had no intention of leaving.
Isabel looked at his cold demeanor as if it had nothing to do with him, and felt very anxious in her heart, saying, "Aren't you going to come with me?"
Su Lun shook his head, sensed something, and said, "It's too late. People are already here."
Isabel looked aside as she listened to these words. Then she realized it later, looked sideways at the window, and said in shock: "No, that's Garcia's carriage!"
Su Lun was slightly surprised when he heard this. He was not surprised but happy, and asked: "Is it that uncle Garcia-Haydn?" He also said that the person coming was very powerful, and he guessed who it was, but he didn't expect it to be this person.
"right!"
Isabel said, frowning and wondering: "It's strange, why did he come..."
Although Su Lun didn't know why this person was here, since someone was here, all the mysteries would be solved. He glanced at the woman who came to report to him and said, "You can leave first."
Isabel said: "What about you?"
Su Lun's eyes gradually deepened, and he said meaningfully: "It's okay. That Lord Garcia may have come to bring me news.
Isabel felt that it must not be that simple, otherwise her brother would never bring the letter specifically, and said: "But."
Su Lun shook his head disapprovingly, stopped her persuasion, and asked: "Didn't your brother tell you who I am?"
Isabel's expression froze slightly and she said, "No. He is on the bottom floor of the Royal Capital Prison and cannot be contacted at all. The only news he brought out is that you should let me rescue you."
Time was running out and she didn't have time to stop. She frowned and said, "Forget it, be careful. I'll hide first."
Hearing this, Su Lun didn't say anything.
At this time, Isabel made a light leap and quietly left the room.
She instantly restrained her aura and fell into a stealth state. If it weren't for soul perception, there would really be no flaws.
Su Lun was stuck, his eyes narrowed slightly, but he didn't say anything.
A group of people came outside the post house.
Not long after, there was a knock on the door.
Tuk, Tuk, Tuk!
