Chapter 472: Poison, Orders and Letters (Subscription Request)

Half an hour later, the entire Lion Manor was under complete martial law.

Countless black-clad swordsmen appeared. They had cold expressions and eyes like knives. They wore black cloaks, and their rapiers and magic pistols were faintly visible at their waists.

They guarded every place and strictly prohibited people from moving around. Even the original knight guards gathered together under the order of Butler Hoover.

These knight guards were naturally unwilling to accept the defeat, and even had the urge to compete with these black-clad swordsmen.

But when Ang showed up, just a cold look from him extinguished all their arrogance.

Everyone in the Flower Territory knew that the Earl secretly had an all-pervasive intelligence organization. There was almost no news they didn't know, and no one they couldn't kill.

And their leader is the young man in front of them, who is even younger than the Earl.

According to private rumors, this young man never smiles and always has a cold face, which means that he will draw his sword and kill people at any time.

But this is not his most terrifying moment. His most terrifying moment is when he smiles at you.

It is worth mentioning that there is another person behind Angel, a middle-aged man who looks very ordinary.

He is dressed in ordinary clothes, has ordinary looks, ordinary height, and ordinary manners. It can be said that even if he stands in front of you, you will ignore him.

But only those who know the business will marvel at his superb 'stealth skills'.

This person is none other than the faceless killer Ulysses, the fourth-order scourge assassin that Loy had recently recruited.

Ange is a studious person and never thinks it is shameful to bow down and ask for advice from the strong.

So, when the faceless killer Ulysses appeared in front of him, he took him with him without any hesitation and asked him for advice on all the knowledge about the dark world.

From assassin skills to stealth, from personnel development to intelligence organization management...

His humility and patience are the foundation of his rapid growth, and the faceless killer Ulysses originally wanted to come here to retire, so he was naturally willing to teach.

He handled the current situation in a very organized manner.

Sealing off the manor was the first step to prevent anyone from escaping during the chaos.

Then follow this pot of mushroom soup, from the maid who served the food, to the chef who cooked it, to the procurement, cleaning and processing of the ingredients, and all the people who came into contact with it...

Following this line, he will be able to find out the person who poisoned him and then discover the hidden secret.

Ang looked calm on the surface, but in fact, a raging fire had already been ignited in his heart.

He didn't even want to imagine how great the impact and consequences would be if Luo Yiru was poisoned.

He felt that it was his own mistake and he had to correct it.

He originally thought that whoever dared to poison the Earl's food must have had a thorough plan, but just over ten minutes later, he knew who the poisoner was?

Jonas Kofman, the chef of Lion Manor, is in his fifties and has served the Raymond family for more than twenty years. He is good at making various soups.

This is an old man with a gentle temper and is kind to others. Everyone likes to call him Uncle Jonas.

But Ange couldn't get any useful information out of him, because he was already dead, having died of poisoning!

There was a small bottle of poison next to him. The remaining poison inside was still flashing with a faint blue light, but there was no smell at all.

The faceless killer Ulysses's expression changed. He suddenly took two steps forward, picked up the bottle, and turned it slightly. He saw the orchid liquid inside turn into colorful light, and the shock in his eyes could no longer be concealed.

"This is the King of Poisons, the Tears of Reese!"

…

After a while, Luo Yi finally stepped out of the living room and walked towards the kitchen along the road in the manor.

The sky had completely darkened, and the magic crystal lamp was lit, emitting a bright and soft light.

But the faces of the servants around him seemed to be covered with a shadow. Negative emotions such as panic, fear, and uneasiness were boiling, making Luo Yi couldn't help but squint his eyes slightly.

Oliveira was the first to come back and he brought good news. Lilia's meal was a special meal for pregnant women, which did not include mushroom soup.

As for Klein, he was still nursing, so it didn't matter to him at all.

This made Luo Yi feel relieved!

Then, there was the return of Ang and the faceless killer Ulysses, who brought more detailed information to Roy.

"The Tears of Reese, a special poison of the Church of the Thousand-Faced God, is said to be made from venom taken from the fangs of a deformed three-headed snake, using secret techniques. It's known as the 'King of Venom.'"

"Firstly, it's extremely toxic. Even the slightest bit of it will quickly destroy the blood structure and organs, leading to the collapse of the body's circulatory system and instant death."

"Secondly, because it destroys the blood, even if the fighting spirit is strong, without blood circulation to carry it, it will not have any inhibitory effect at all."

"Even the most healing Holy Light Dou Qi is useless!"

"In other words, even if you're as powerful as a legend, it doesn't make any difference if you're poisoned by this. You'll still die if you're supposed to."

“Secondly, this poison is colorless and odorless and can be absorbed into any food. Even if one’s tongue and nose are very sensitive, they won’t be able to detect any strange smell.

So, even if someone died from Reese's poison, no one would know how they died; the only outward manifestation would be organ failure."

"As for whether there is an antidote for this poison, yes, there is, and it is well known to everyone.

The antidote is the gallbladder of a deformed three-headed snake, but it must be taken alive. No one can survive ten minutes after being poisoned, let alone finding this deformed three-headed snake.

Luo Yi finally asked, "So, this poison is very rare, right?"

"It's not rare, but quite rare. After all, the Thousand-Faced God has fallen, and the ancient books recording his name must have survived for hundreds of years.

As for the believers, they were completely wiped out.

The existing Tears of Reese are all inventory that has been produced for who knows how many years."

As they were talking, they had already reached the kitchen. After walking through the corridor and the warehouse full of vegetables, they arrived at a room.

The place was filled with black-clad swordsmen, making it impossible to get out, but there was only one corpse in the room.

A fifty-year-old middle-aged man lay on his back on the ground, blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, his eyes covered with a layer of gray, his expression painful and angry.

Next to him, in an open medicine bottle, a faint orchid-colored liquid emitted an enchanting light.

At this time, Luo Yi finally asked: "Since the Tears of Si are so rare here, who has them?"

Ange didn't say anything, but looked at the middle-aged man beside him.

The faceless killer Ulysses took over the conversation: "As far as I know, several major royal families should still have some in stock. I haven't heard of any others."

"Have you seen it?"

"When I was studying, I saw it in a book collected by an old wizard. To be honest, if it weren't for the unique method of identification, I wouldn't have believed my eyes."

As he said this, he looked up at Luo Yi with a strange look in his eyes.

He knew that Luo Yi had eaten the thick soup, and even two mouthfuls would be fatal.

But looking at Luo Yi again, he doesn't look poisoned at all.

So, he was very curious about how Luo Yi detoxified himself?

Of course, although he was curious, he didn't dare to ask, because the earl was full of mystery.

Of course, Luo Yi would not tell him that the [Dimensional Capsule] decomposed when it sensed harmful substances.

Nor would they tell him that even the remaining contents of the [Kidney of Rock] were directly filtered and excreted from the body.

The secret sacred skill versus the legendary poison, the victory is complete!

Squatting slightly, Luo Yi looked at Jonas, whose eyes were still open, and asked, "Is it possible that he was forced to drink the poison?"

“We checked and found traces of mental magic on his body, but no external injuries.

His wife and children were also found dead, their necks broken, outside their home.”

"so what?"

“Our initial assessment is that someone threatened him with his wife and children, planted a curse on him, and then poisoned him.

After completing it, he manipulated himself into committing suicide by taking poison."

"So, it's still unclear who did it?"

"Please give me some time."

As Ange said this, he suddenly took two steps forward and whispered in Luo Yi's ear: "Just now, I received a letter."

"letter?"

"Yes, it was a letter from the Grand Duke of Carlisle, but it wasn't sent through the usual channels. Instead, it was sent by the tavern owner."

“Give it to me!”

Ange took out a letter from his pocket and handed it over.

Luo Yi took it, opened it casually, pulled out the letter, shook it, and then looked down.

The letter is very long, a full three pages, but it is full of nonsense and quite wordy!

Luo Yi read it through, but couldn't grasp the main point. He felt like he had no idea what he wanted to express.

But this was obviously impossible. He narrowed his eyes slightly, with blue light flashing in his eyes, and scanned again.

Led by Deep Blue, various analyses ultimately converged on the final sentence.

"Luo Yi, are you satisfied with my big order?"

This reminded Luo Yi of the order that had just been sent in. It was a huge order, and the amount of arms demanded was even equal to the total of the previous six months!

Before, he didn't think much about it and just thought that the war was getting more and more intense.

But now, Luo Yi suddenly reacted.

Is this order too big, perhaps abnormally large?

He even wrote a letter to show off?!

But this is not the style of Grand Duke Carlisle, and the relationship between the two sides is not that good!

So, if this letter isn't meant to show off, it's meant to be a reminder?

At this moment, Luo Yi's thoughts suddenly became clear.

Tears of Reese, large orders, reminders from letters...

What does this indicate?

This means that someone finally couldn't help it and wanted to take action against the flower collar!

At this moment, Luo Yi's anger had mostly disappeared, and he even felt like waiting and waiting until the flowers withered!

But it feels like what is supposed to come has finally come!

So what should we do now?

Of course, to lure the snake out of its hole!

"Angel?"

"My Lord Earl, what are your instructions?"

"Continue to seal off Lion Manor. Then, spread the news that I, Roy Raymond, have been poisoned and my life or death is unknown."

At this moment, Luo Yi said resolutely: "I really want to see who will jump out first?"
