Age of Mysticism Chapter 159

  Chapter 159 Have you seen it? (3000)

  Iscoran had difficulty answering Agatha's question.

  In the past, the Brotherhood of Blades would fight against the Golden Shield royal family. One-on-one was simple, and the two sides could always find a balance that was uncomfortable but acceptable to everyone. But now that a new aristocratic force has been added, the difficulty of the three-party game is not as simple as adding one, especially the new aristocrats have suddenly emerged, gaining momentum and showing their sharpness.

  Under the pressure of the imperial power and the new aristocrats, some members of the Blade Brotherhood, who are losing power step by step, have undergone great changes in their mentality, and internal divisions have become increasingly serious.

  The sense of crisis can easily make people go to extremes.

  The combination of the Duke of Celtic and the Temple of the Abyss will cause big problems sooner or later.

"Alas..." Viscount Iscoran sighed, "Yeah, the times are different, maybe the Blade Brotherhood has fulfilled the duties entrusted to it by its ancestors. Your Highness, you want to know what is in that bag ?"

  Agatha said: "You don't need to look, I can guess... Is it the evidence of the government-business smuggling syndicate in Raging Waves City?"

"I know that you can't hide everything from Your Highness. These are indeed the evidences of smuggling by officials and merchants in Raging Waves City that I have collected, and they are just the tip of the iceberg. If Your Majesty is willing to dig deeper into the evidence, the tax revenue of Raging Waves City can be increased by at least five times." times maybe more."

Agatha put the purse back on and said: "At least 50% of the court officials should be arrested, and there are many royal family members among them. This is not a big case that you can start. My father knows that it will bring great harm to the empire." What kind of turmoil it brings. You should know it too, but you still came with these evidences... What do you want to do?"

  When Viscount Iscorran was about to answer, the servant came to inform: His Majesty summoned...

  The Viscount got up and said to Agatha: "That's not important anymore, can I ask you to go to see His Majesty together?"

   Agatha stood up and replied: "Yes... Raging City's tax revenue can be increased by two times instead of five times, which is a very considerable wealth for the empire.

  On the way, you can continue to talk about Inspector Meteor, I want to hear the evaluation of him from all parties in Raging Waves City. "

   "Yes, Your Highness...please..."

  The next day, Raging Waves City.

  Yormington arrived almost on time when he was at work at the Secret Intelligence Bureau in Cape District. This time he got his wish and met Inspector Meteor who was about to go out.

   "Detective Meteorite..."

  Luke walked past Yomington and said, "Let's go, let's go see Virgil together."

  Yormington didn't show any emotion because of Luke's rudeness, he followed out the gate and got into the special car of the detective of Secret Service.

  When the convoy started, he asked Luke who was sitting next to him: "Why didn't the little girl named Sandpaper that I saw at Sissai Palace last time come with me?"

  Luke knew that he was tentatively asking Kestrel, so he replied: "Sandpaper is just an ordinary mechanical repairman here. Last time we encircled and suppressed the abyss mage, all the war machines dispatched needed to be overhauled, and the mechanical maintenance room was very busy."

  Yomington continued to ask: "That girl is very strong, and being a mechanical repairman is too much to bury her talents. If you are willing to let her come to work with me, Chief Assistant, I promise to give you a very generous reward."

"Hahaha..." Luke laughed and said, "You are looking for Kestrel. I can tell you the truth, she is in my hands, and I have helped her recover part of her memory. What did you do. Apart from having a good reputation, what you do is not much different from the Abyss Temple.

   Now I have enough evidence to ruin your reputation. "

Yomington didn't expect Luke to admit it like this. He said threateningly: "I can't understand some of your words. I ask you to hand over the kestrel to me immediately. I am her legal guardian. I reserve the right to sue." You have the power to kidnap and many other crimes."

   "Then sue me... Whether it is in the court of Raging Waves City or the Supreme Court of the Empire, I will accompany you. I have a carload of data to play with you. It depends on whether you dare to play with me."

  Yormington certainly didn't dare to make this matter a big deal, especially since he wasn't sure how much evidence the Secret Service had. The girls like Kestrel are too young, once they are put on the bright side, it will be a difficult incident to end.

  He never expected that someone would be able to **** the kestrel away silently under heavy protection. And that sandpaper is obviously the girl who killed Professor Gray Farley. She is also a survivor of the Eternal Life Secret Art, and she is a very special existence. The three rescued girls all showed a sense of dependence on her.

   This is the subconscious that is difficult to be suppressed by brain modification devices.

   "You have caused a lot of trouble for His Royal Highness in Raging Waves City. If you don't give me the kestrel and sandpaper, you will cause even more trouble for Your Highness."

  Yormington changed the direction of the threat.

  Luke snorted: "Don't you think it's funny when you say this? I really want to see what trouble you can cause Her Royal Highness the Princess?

  Yormington, kindly remind you... first think about how you can leave Raging City alive. "

   "Are you threatening the life of a senior imperial official?"

   "I'm very clear, I'm reminding you. We're here, let's go see Senator Virgil together, and look forward to what he can say to us."

   The convoy stopped at 102 Organ Street.

  A big battle left a beautiful small building dilapidated. Even after days of cleaning, piles of broken bricks and various pieces of furniture can still be seen everywhere.

  The Secret Intelligence Bureau of Cape District has bought the ownership of this land from Councilor Ible at a very low price. The imperial spies moved in and used several rooms that were still in good condition as office locations, and the cellar in the northeast corner had been transformed into a dungeon.

   Passing through the ruins, Luke took Yomington into the heavily guarded dungeon. Inside the dungeon were cells separated by stainless steel fences, and Congressman Virgil was locked in the middle.

  As soon as he entered the dungeon, Yomington noticed the abnormal atmosphere inside, the extreme depression and the fear that made his flesh jump. This isn't a cell at all, it's a mental mill. It can grind people's spiritual defenses little by little, grab the most fragile nerves, and crush them cruelly.

  Yomington could already imagine what Virgil would look like at this moment, but when he saw Vergil, he found that his imagination was really too optimistic.

"You can't treat an imperial nobleman so cruelly! I demand that you release Vergil immediately! I want to take him back to the imperial capital. He is entitled to treatment in line with his status. The Supreme Court of the Empire has accepted this case. Judge's order letter.

  Detective Meteorite, let him go! "

  Yomington ran to the Cape Secret Affairs Bureau every day these days, asking to see Vergil, and was planning to use his trump card to bring him out immediately after seeing him.

  The order letter of the Supreme Court Justice of the Empire was shown in front of Luke, unless there is an order from the Emperor of the Empire, he must release people.

   As long as Virgil is fished out, all the charges against him can be eliminated, and then there is a counterattack.

  According to the normal process, it is indeed the case.

   But what Yomington faced was a "fake" detective.

  Luke brought the judge's order letter over, and after reading it once, let Taotie burn it.

   The scene was very quiet for a while.

  Luke said: "Lord Yomington, where is the judge's order letter? Show it to me, as long as it is true, I will release him immediately."

  Yormington looked at his empty hands, and those falling gray traces... Dumbfounded!

  He has been an official all his life, and he has never seen such a bold person.

   "You, you dare to burn the judge's order letter!"

Luke crushed the large piece of ashes that fell on the ground, and said, "Master Yomington, don't slander an upright senior imperial agent at will. When did I burn the judge's order letter? How dare I Burn the judge's order letter!"

  Yormington didn't expect Luke to be so shameless, he pointed at the imperial agents who came in with him and said angrily: "They all saw it!"

   Luke asked the spy: "What do you see?"

  These spies were temporary workers recruited by the dock, and they all shook their heads and said, "We didn't see anything."

   "I obviously burned a piece of paper."

   "Yes, Lord Inspector burned a piece of paper."

  Luke asked again: "If you go to the Supreme Court of the Empire to testify, what do you say?"

  The spies said: "We don't know how to read, we really don't know how to read."

Yomington never expected that the spies of the dignified empire would dare to give false testimony on such a matter. He pointed angrily at the entourage who followed him and said, "All my people have seen that I gave you the order letter from the great judge. , you burned it!"

  Luke sneered: "You said they were your people, but they can still testify in court?"

   "You, you..." Yomington blushed angrily: "I will definitely sue you, and the Supreme Court of the Empire will definitely make a fair judgment."

   "This will have to wait until you leave Raging City alive." Luke said to Yomington contemptuously: "I'm going to interrogate Virgil now. Do you go back and get the order letter from the judge, or listen in?"

  Yormington calmed down instantly.

  A person who dares to burn the judge's order letter, dare to kill a senior official of the empire? Even if he is a staff member of the chief assistant of the imperial cabinet, even if he is a nobleman of his own empire.

  Look at the crazy Virgil in the prison, look at the ashes on the ground, there is nothing this Inspector Meteor cannot do.

  He has the ability to silently steal the kestrel, and also has the ability to silently assassinate himself.

   Even directly killed his group of people in this prison.

  He is so confident, there must be a princess who endorses him. On behalf of the Eldest Princess, the action in Raging Waves City is very firm, no matter there is any obstruction, this nail must be nailed here.

   And the reason why the eldest princess did this... Was it her intention, or His Majesty's intention?

   I have to admit that many things that Rage City has done are very excessive. The trade volume has increased year after year, but the tax revenue has remained the same all year round. Lord Shoufu also knew that doing so would definitely touch the limit of His Majesty's patience, but there were too many mouths to eat on this plate.

  If you want to pay more taxes, it is bound to affect the interests of many people.

  The interests of these people were mobilized, and the position of the chief assistant was unstable.
