"What a beautiful technique."
Cato looked at the photo of the results, and the first sentence was a sincere compliment.
Yurisses and Dabinett both had ugly expressions on their faces, but none of them spoke.
Slowly, Cato's expression changed.
From the beginning, admiration became serious, then solemn, and then incomparably fearful.
"What a fast sword. No, it should be sword qi. There's also sword intent. What a sharp sword qi. What a strong killing intent."
He flipped through the photos several times before suddenly raising his head and asking, "Is there anything else other than these photos?"
"Agent Odoni, who was in charge of the investigation, found the witness. She was a 20-year-old girl. She said that at the time of the incident, she only saw a ray of light and Taylor and the others were killed."
"A ray of light?!"
Cato's expression changed.
"As expected, it is indeed sword light."
Cato's expression changed. Finally, he put down the photo and muttered to himself.
"Why isn't it Bladelight?"
Yurisses couldn't help but ask.
"From the photographs and witnesses' descriptions, At that time of the crime, The murderer must have instantly killed someone from a different location, including Taylor, If it was a knife, The wound won't be so delicate, This kind of delicate wound, "Only the edge of the sword can do it. Furthermore, the murderer is an expert who can condense sword energy. To put it bluntly, sword energy is used to compress the air in the path of the sword's attack to the extreme, making the air extremely sharp. As a result, the length of the weapon is deformably prolonged. With a saber, it is impossible for the wounds drawn by the saber blade to be so consistent."
Cato said in a solemn tone.
Dabinett and Yurisses looked at each other in confusion, not understanding at all.
"Judging by the size of the bedroom and where the body fell, The murderer must have only used one sword strike the moment he attacked, However, this sword changed moves halfway through, Taylor's body smashed into the wall, It should have been sent flying by a huge force, There were fragments of the bed at the scene, In other words, The killer was probably hiding under the bed before he attacked, At the time of the incident, Taylor should be in bed, The moment the murderer attacked, he tore the bed apart with his sword. Taylor was thrown into the air, He raised his sword, The blade of the sword instantly cut Taylor's neck. Before the sword could finish, The opponent had already changed his moves, The raised sword turned into a sweep, "The sword qi instantly killed everyone else in the surroundings. Judging from the distance between Taylor's position and the five people's positions, the moment the opponent drew his sword, the sword qi was almost ten zhang long, that is, three meters long, or even longer. In other words, only Taylor died under the blade of the sword, while the rest had their throats torn apart by the sword qi."
Cato paused. "Sword Qi is the air in front of the edge of the sword, This kind of thing is hard to control, The opponent was actually able to use sword qi to kill people, and the wounds he caused were exactly the same. I can only say that the killer's domain of using the sword is definitely at its peak. The real peak is nothing more than that. Moreover, his opponent is skilled in using the sword, and his speed and strength are also far beyond the limits of the human body. I wonder if there is anyone suspicious of such a person, Mr. President and Mr. Councilman. "
"Lin Xuanyuan!"
Yurisses and Dabinett exchanged glances and called out in unison a name that had nothing to do with Scana, their biggest suspect.
'"Lin Xuanyuan? He can do it, but it was at his peak. Now that his injuries have not healed, it is basically impossible for him to do so. Unless he has a new understanding of the sword, but I don't think it is possible."
Jia Tu frowned. For some reason, he rejected the possibility that Lin Xuanyuan was the murderer.
It was definitely not Lin Xuanyuan.
It couldn't be Lin Xuanyuan.
If he was really the one who did this in a heavily injured state...
Jia Tu didn't dare to continue thinking. He shook his head fiercely and told himself in his heart that this was impossible.
"Could it be that the Emperor personally took action?"
Yurisses asked again.
"Impossible."
"First, although the Emperor is invincible, his speed alone is not necessarily faster than Lin Xuanyuan's. Moreover, his injuries are more serious than Lin Xuanyuan's, and his combat strength is also declining. It is impossible for the Emperor to make a move on this matter," Jia Tu shook his head again.
"Other than the Emperor and Lin Xuanyuan, who else in the royal family has such strength?"
Yurisses asked again, intentionally or unintentionally, he seemed to want to clear Scana of suspicion.
Jia Tu shook his head as if he did not understand Yurisses ' meaning. "No, let alone the royal family. Even with the entire Divine Continent Empire, only the Emperor and Lin Xuanyuan were able to do this. They were still unharmed, so …" Jia Tu shook his head as if he did not understand Yurisses ' meaning.
"So it can only be Aresis, right? We don't know his exact strength, but we can be sure that this person is not injured."
Dabinett interrupted Cato and said coldly.
Yurisses frowned and remained silent.
"I will make them pay the price."
Dabinett took a deep breath and said in a cold and resolute tone, "A heavy price!"
Yurisses frowned, hesitated for a moment, but did not say anything.
As Catu thought, or as Catu could have imagined, Yurisses had already thought of it.
He was also aware of the opportunity before him. To him, this special plane was simply unparalleled.
As long as Irving continues to disappear, then sooner or later, the Dabinett Group will suffer a huge loss of vitality, And it's not going to be too slow, For Yurisses, This opportunity was simply too great. He could suppress both the Howington Group and the Dabinett Group. At that time, it would be a 100% matter for him to be re-elected as president. His prestige would return to its peak, and he would live a life of utterance. His name would be recorded in the history of the United States. How glorious was this?
All of this was now tied to a think tank called Erwin.
As long as Elvin didn't show up, all of this was possible.
Therefore, even though Yurisses knew that Scana was the most suspicious person, at least more suspicious than the royal family, he still wanted Dabinett to look at the royal family with suspicion.
Dabinett didn't have to be a royal family. As long as it wasn't the Howington Group, he could suspect anyone.
Yurisses wanted the water to be completely muddled, so that Dabinett had better never find Elvin, at least not for a long time.
What Dabinett didn't know was that even though Erwin's disappearance was still a secret, Yurisses had already begun to prepare to spread rumors the moment he received the news. As long as the rumors formed a certain scale, the hearts of the Dabinett Group would definitely be unstable.
The emperor raided the ancient city, Dabinett was the one who suffered the most, Many of the higher-ups of the Dabinett camp had died, Although these people were also selected within the Dabinett Group, But there were too many people staring at these positions, resulting in intense competition, Dabinett was already in deep trouble, He could only barely stabilize his footing and didn't have time to care about him, It was only because the capture of Huo Wenton gave him a special plane that his cooperation with Yurisses allowed everyone in the group to see a wonderful future. That was, as long as the Huo Wenton Group was annexed, the Dabinett Group would obtain more high-level positions, thus greatly easing the competition within the group.
It was precisely because of this that Dabinett managed to calm down the competition within his group.
At this time, once the news of Elvin's disappearance reached the Binnett Group, Dabinett's backyard would definitely be in turmoil again.
Irwin's missing, The strength of the group was greatly reduced, Under such circumstances, Perhaps no one would believe that they could swallow up the Howington Group. As a result, the competition for vacant senior positions within the group would become even more intense, and Elvin's direct descendants would also ask Dabinett for an explanation. In this way, the situation of the Dabinett Group would definitely not be much better than the current desperate Howington Group.
Once these things broke out, even if the two large groups could barely stabilize their footing, they would completely lose the qualifications to challenge him.
Moreover, even if Elvin could return to the Dabinett Group in the future, Dabinett would still have to make significant concessions and compromises to him during the period when he did not return and the rumors spread.
At the very least, he didn't have the confidence to continue fighting for the Golden State position, and the other important positions of the Howington Group would also become his possessions.
Therefore, from Yurisses's point of view, this was a profitable business. Irwin would be able to earn more profit if he came back one day later.
"Aresis? The king of mercenaries? I haven't met him before, and I'm not sure of his strength. However, if he really did this, then it can only be said that he's hiding it too deeply. Even if he isn't a giant in the World-shaking Sovereign ranks, his strength isn't far behind. At least, he's not much weaker than Lin Xuanyuan. He's definitely stronger than me right now. "Furthermore, Aresis is not alone. He also holds tens of thousands of elite mercenaries from the Black Mercenary Group. I would like to give you two a piece of advice on such a goal. At this time, try not to use extreme methods to resolve it. You can try to negotiate peace first."
Cato said with a smile.
"It's just a mercenary group. Aresis is inferior to Lin Xuanyuan. I'll kill someone like him!"
Dabinett gritted his teeth and said coldly.
'"That's right, an Aresis isn't scary, plus the Black Mercenary Group. But what if Aresis cooperates with the royal family? Tens of thousands of elite mercenaries plus a quasi-tycoon. If they are stationed in Dark Town, we will have to pay at least 100,000 troops to take them down. Can you handle this outcome, Councilman?"
Yurisses said coldly.
Dabinett's momentum froze, and then he sneered, "It seems that Aresis is indeed not easy to provoke, but the Marshal's injuries are getting better and better. After he recovers, what are we afraid of Aresis? He kidnapped Elvin first. Do I have to go and apologize to him?"
"Regardless of whether Marshal has recovered or not, we cannot afford to offend such a quasi-giant at this time. In terms of high-end combat strength, we are already at a disadvantage."
"This is only temporary."
"It's not wise to provoke Aresis before Father wakes up, but it doesn't matter after Father wakes up. Although our high-end combat strength is temporarily at a disadvantage, it's not impossible for us to do so," Jato said with a laugh.
"What method?"
Yurisses and Dabinett asked in unison, their voices filled with excitement.
"Find an ally."
Jia Tu smiled and said confidently, "This ally can only be invited by my father. I'm not qualified enough. Don't worry, both of you. In terms of high-end combat strength, we will soon surpass the royal family. I can guarantee it!"
