In order to protect himself, Earl Edward began to eliminate all clues that might lead to him.

A fourth-level confidant was called in by Edward.

Then he received the order to assassinate the slave trader and left the reception room.

As soon as he went out, the confidant encountered a third-level soldier rushing towards him in a hurry.

The confidant frowned and asked, "What's the matter that makes you so flustered?"

Earl Edward was now in a state of distress.

If this soldier rushed in to report the situation like this, Edward would definitely be unhappy, and he might even be punished by the angry earl.

"Lord Hayden!" The third-level soldier saluted the soldier in front of him and said, "There have been many murders in the city today!"

"Is there a murder?" Hayden said unhappily, "If there is a murder, go and solve it. Why are you running to the Earl's reception room?"

"This... this matter is rather strange! Even Captain Nicol can't find the murderer!"

Nicol, as the soldiers called him, was also a fourth-rank soldier captain.

After hearing this, Hayden looked back at the closed door of the reception room and asked, "Tell me what's going on?"

The soldier also knew that Hayden was Earl Edward's confidant, so he told him directly.

"It's like this, we received a report this morning that several civilians were killed last night!

Because we were looking for the escaped demon slaves, no one cared about these things.

Everyone also thought that the deaths of civilians were caused by escaped demon slaves.

However, two hours ago, around five o'clock this afternoon, after we captured all the slaves, we received another report.

Captain Nicol led people to solve the matter, and found that the heads of the victims were smashed after they died.

After careful observation, Captain Nicol discovered that the victims' faces had been peeled off.

These victims were probably killed by the same person.

The purpose of smashing the head was probably to cover up the skinning.

This is weird!

In addition, Captain Nicol found several hairs on the hand of one of the victims! "

"Skin them? Hair? Are there any demons that haven't been captured yet?"

"Joey said they've all been found!"

Joey was the slave trader.

After hearing this, Hayden angrily cursed: "This guy is obviously afraid of taking responsibility and is lying!"

He was about to assassinate Joey.

After learning about this, Hayden planned to ask Joey to verify the slaves' information before killing him.

At least we need to know what species the demon slave who has not yet been captured is.

We can’t let it keep killing people in the city!

The slums of West Town in Selby.

This place is homeless, beggars, thieves and other low-level people.

At night, patrolling soldiers would never come to such places.

At this time, a figure with an ordinary face, wearing a turban, wearing ill-fitting clothes, and with a hunched back, sneaked into the slum.

If you look closely, you can see that this person has long hair on his exposed hands...

"An, we have something else to do, so we'll leave first!"

After arriving in Thordar, Ashe and Green left first with Phil.

Before Phil left, he reluctantly said goodbye to Tina and Annuo, and told them where she lived.

"If you have time, come and play with me!"

Anno nodded, waved goodbye to Phil, and said goodbye to Alman and others.

"The mission is accomplished, and it's time for me to leave!"

"I'm sorry to have caused trouble to Lord An along the way!"

Alman took out a purse and handed it to Annuo, "Here is a reward of 500 gold coins. Thank you for your help along the way!"

The remuneration is five times what was previously agreed upon!

"That's very good."

Annuo accepted the remuneration with peace of mind, asked Alman to sign a "satisfactory" evaluation on the power of attorney, and then left with Liz.

As for Alman's concealment of the goods along the way, he even gave tips to the guards to avoid searches when entering the city.

An Nuo didn't ask any further questions.

The mission he accepted was only to escort the caravan to Sodar, and everything else had nothing to do with him.

"As expected of a royal city, it's still so lively at night!"

An Nuo looked at the brightly lit pubs on both sides of the street and went into one at random.

"Welcome, what can I do for you?"

The two waiters standing at the door were good-looking, with two furry ears on their heads, which made people want to play with them.

"What a cute beast girl! I really want to touch her ears!"

When the two orc girls heard what An Nuo said, their cheeks turned pink.

An Nuo glanced at their chests without leaving a trace.

Yeah, it's quite big.

Moreover, the boss understands his customers very well, and the design of the clothes is quite bold, almost exposing the entire upper hemisphere!

“Ahem!”

Liz coughed next to me.

An Nuo turned his head and saw Liz's resentful expression.

"Master, my magic horns are also very interesting. Do you want to play with them?"

Liz pointed at the two devil horns on her head and said with a dissatisfied look on her face.

"Well, let's eat first, and then have a good rest!"

An Nuo smiled awkwardly, found an empty table and sat down, then called the waiter and ordered a few dishes.

While eating, An Nuo was listening to the conversations of people around him.

The purpose of eating in the hall is to find out some information.

From them, Annuo learned that the situation on the front line was becoming increasingly tense.

The kingdom is constantly recruiting soldiers and expanding its army.

The troops sent by various nobles to support the northern border have also arrived in the royal city one after another. After systematic training, they will be sent to the northern frontier.

In addition, there are some interesting stories about celebrities in the royal city.

Anno even heard people discussing Sylvia.

It seems that she has broken through the fourth level and become the youngest fifth-level priest in the royal city!

"Level five!"

Anno smacked his lips.

Sylvia is only in her twenties.

With such achievements at this age, he is worthy of the special talent praised by Test.

"I wonder what happened to Xue Feibai and the others!"

Too much time was wasted on Anno Road.

Xue Feibai and his group should have arrived in the royal city a few days in advance following Tester.

A group of extremely talented professionals entered the royal capital. As long as they were given time to develop, it would be easy for them to stir up trouble in the royal city.

After that, Annuo didn't hear any useful information from the diners.

Just as he was about to go upstairs to stay, several fourth-level professionals walked into the tavern.

As soon as they came in, they started talking about the dragon in Sunset Land.

Many diners, including An Nuo, fell silent and listened to the discussion at their table.

"The captain will be back from the Land of the Setting Sun in a few days!"

"What? Captain, is the news that there is a fourth-order dragon in the Sunset Land false?"

"Not really. From the news that was sent back, the captain and his men did find a red dragon in the Land of Sunset, and it is indeed a level four red dragon!

When professionals from all over the place got the news, they all rushed over to hunt the dragon!

Many people died in that battle.

I heard that there are many fifth-level professionals participating.

The dragon was seriously injured, but eventually flew away and disappeared.

Many professionals from various places died.

However, I heard that someone has collected dragon blood, and someone has found dragon scales!

However, the Lord of the Sunset Land sent out his army to fight for these precious materials, and they fought with the mercenaries, and many people died!

The leader was not very strong, so he stayed behind. Although he didn't gain anything, at least he survived.

However, many of the mercenary groups that rushed over from the royal city lost their leaders this time."
