Chapter 203: The Baron's Death (Part 2)



Luther rolled his eyes. He was actually a little worried now because he felt that the entire Patton County might be caught in a storm.

Under normal circumstances, Luther should have analyzed and discussed the matter with his uncle and other heads of the seven major families, but Luther didn't know what was wrong with his brain circuit, and he hooked up with Miss Alice.

"I heard that this Sicia Gandaor has a very good relationship with your brother, Lucy Patton." Luther considered his tone and then said.

"Are you accusing my own brother of murdering Babana, Gandor, and his son Mousse in alliance with Scia and Gandor?"

Alice's expression changed and she spoke in a somewhat fierce tone.

Now the official result is that Babana Gandalf was murdered by an evil wizard, but Luther is skeptical.

"I didn't say that." Luther was obviously not intimidated. He shrugged and said, "And I heard that your relationship with your brothers is not very good."

“Hehe, you’re not scared at all. You’re worthy of being the man I value.” Alice licked her red lips with a very charming expression and looked straight at Luther.

Luther rolled his eyes again. He wondered if he would develop cataracts if he continued like this.

"Although my brother is a big suspect, he is also a suspect." Alice raised her head and looked at another person.

This is a somewhat weak gentleman.

His features were very gentle, like a lady, and his figure was quite slender. His expression was a little gloomy at the moment.

This gentleman's name is Naz Wilson.

He is the contemporary knight of the Wilson family, Knight Wilson, a family that owns the only two towns as fiefdoms in the Patton territory.

Although this knight looks very weak, he is a genuine high-level knight.

If Babana, Knight Gandaor is called the most powerful minister in Patton's territory, then this title of knight is questionable, because Knight Wilson can be compared with Knight Gandaor in terms of ability and strength.

But in terms of reputation, he is not as good as Babana and Gandhar.

But now Babana Gandor is dead, and his younger brother Scia Gandor is inferior to Natsu Wilson in every aspect.

Now Lord Barton, Naz, and Wilson are the true first vassals.

Before this, the Wilson family and the Gandal family had a certain degree of conflict over some land and interests.

If someone murdered Gandalf and his son, then Knight Wilson is also a suspect.

Luther looked at Natsu, Wilson, Cecilia, and Gandal, and felt that everyone looked like the murderer, and he had a severe headache.

All in all, he felt that the peaceful days in Patton County might be gone forever.

My Pompeii, do not let this affect you.

bother.

The funeral was completely over. Luther and Mrs. Sophie said goodbye to Mrs. Gandalf, then got on the carriage and, under the escort of the family's knights, took the route through the city of Cayeux and returned to Pompeii.

The other guests were basically the same. Although the road between Gandaor City and Kaiyue City was relatively wide, the queue still formed a long snake shape.

Walking very slowly.

In the carriage, Luther sat face to face with Mrs. Sophie, who was still immersed in sentimentality and felt very sympathetic towards Mrs. Gandol.

"Mrs. Gandalf is only 39 years old. Her son died some time ago, and now her husband has died too. She will have to live with her three daughters alone in the future. It's really pitiful. Luther, I think we should help them more in the future."

Lady Sophie said.

She is a woman, a sentimental woman, a sentimental and compassionate woman.

Only a woman like this would treat her stepson Luther as her own son.

"Mom, I will." Luther agreed, but he would never put it into action because it would be the Baron's job to take care of Babana, the widow of Knight Gandal.

It’s not the Pompeii family’s turn yet.

Mrs. Sophie had no idea that Luther was just trying to please her. She felt relieved and a slight smile appeared on her face.

And Luther was immersed in thought, still pondering.

Who murdered Gandal and his son?

There was a loud bang, and at that moment a huge change occurred. Luther first saw a flash of light, a golden light like the sun.

The light is thick and big.

Then there was a loud noise, and the entire ground shook slightly. Madam Sophie in the carriage almost fell to the ground.

What was even worse was that the driver could no longer control the horse, which began to run around in panic. Luther immediately rushed out of the carriage holding Mrs. Sophie, and stood near the carriage in shock.

At this time, the family's knights had already controlled the restless horses and were guarding Luther and Mrs. Sophie.

"What's going on, Luther?" Mrs. Sophie was dizzy before this. After calming down a little, she left Luther's arms and asked palely.

"It's a magic cannon." Luther replied solemnly.

This was the first time Luther had seen something like this.

Legend has it that this thing is a powerful weapon created by wizards, and the operation of this magic cannon is extremely simple. Even a junior knight holding a magic cannon can kill a high-level wizard.

Of course, this also depends on the level of the magic cannon.

In any case, this weapon is too dangerous. The production drawings are currently only in the hands of some bigwigs in the wizarding world, and very few are circulated outside.

Magic cannons are therefore expensive and energy-intensive.

This shot might be worth one million gold coins.

But these are all insignificant details. The key is the big shot that this man has always dreamed of. Who is the target? To be frank, Luther is not worth this shot.

The answer is obvious.

In this long line, there is only one person who is worth this shot, and that is Mr. Baron Patton.

Luther's face suddenly looked very ugly.

Luther did not hate the baron. On the contrary, he thought he was a amiable elder and a harmless lord.

From a personal point of view, Luther didn't want anything to happen to the Baron.

Politically, Barton County needs stability, and the Baron cannot be in trouble. Now it's Knight Gandalf first, and if the Baron dies too.

Lucy, Barton will definitely be ready to make a move.

Moreover, Luther had to wonder whether the New Party was involved.

Luther felt like his head was exploding.

Baron, you can't get into trouble.

Luther prayed in his heart, but it was of no use, and soon the sad news spread.
