Chapter 728: The Real Murderer of the Queen's Death(1/2)
"Buzz——"
Saoirse raised her white right hand and danced her fingertips, and wisps of golden aura rippled out, covering her and Li Guanqi's sides, forming a soundproof spiritual shield.
"Mr. Li, have you ever heard of the Odinson family?"
The Jiugong-level female sorcerer looked at Li Guanqi and said softly.
"The greatest nobleman of the Tulip Empire?"
Li Guanqi leaned back on his seat and nodded lightly, "Of course I have heard of it. It is said that before Isabel took over the position of queen, the Odinson family had controlled the Tulip Empire for a long time, trying to build the Tulip Empire into something like the Violet Empire.
They wanted to oust the royal family and let the Council of Elders become the real ruling force.
However, with the appearance of Isabel and the appearance of his brother, the demigod knight, the Odinson family failed.
Elizabeth's royal family is back in control.
Isabel Elizabeth has regained control of the country, and her brother Kevin Elizabeth serves as the strongest backing, providing a demigod-level combat deterrent for her sister and the Elizabeth royal family."
"But now Mr. Kevin has passed away."
Saoirse sighed, "After Mr. Kevin passed away, the evil thoughts of the Odinson family surfaced again."
"So, it's them?"
When Li Guanqi heard this, he couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly, "Did the Odinson family join forces with the Dark Brotherhood to kill Her Royal Highness the Queen?"
"To be precise, it's the Odinson family joining forces with the College of Surgeons, and then the Dark Brotherhood invited by the College of Surgeons."
Saoirse lowered her head and tightly grasped the corners of her clothes with both hands, "It was these three major forces who joined forces to assassinate the Queen."
"Why kill?"
Li Guanqi asked again, "Is it just a struggle for power that has made the Queen a thorn in the side of the Senate, or is there something else hidden behind it?"
"There's nothing hidden, it's just a pure power struggle."
Saoirse sighed and said slowly: "After Mr. Kevin and the demigod who belonged to the Council of Elders were killed by Emperor Wu of the Great Luo Shen, the two demigod positions in our empire became free.
The queen wanted to give these two positions, one to herself and one to her cousin.
Power comes from force.
As long as the Elizabethan royal family can have two major demigods, then the Elizabethan royal family can completely control the right to speak. She wants to take back all the power from the Senate in her generation.
This is not wishful thinking.
Under normal circumstances, it is entirely possible for her to do it.
But the problem is that in order to control the empire, the Odinson family even does not hesitate to join forces with outsiders. That old bastard... The contemporary patriarch of the Odinson family, Douglas Odinson, actually promised that after killing the queen, he would
One of the demigod seats is given to the Magician Academy!
Then the Magician Academy used some method to invite the top killer of the Dark Brotherhood!"
At this point, Saoirse's eyes darkened and her face was full of guilt, "Douglas Odinson, he, he kidnapped my biological sister in order to let me help set up the trap formation. I had no choice but to betray him.
Queen, I..."
"How is your sister now?"
Li Guanqi asked softly.
"Being released."
God Saoirse lowered her head and whispered: "But I know that as long as I disobey, the Odinson family will take her away again at any time to threaten me."
"So……"
Li Guanqi looked at the female sorcerer seriously, "Miss Saoirse, what was the entire assassination process like?"
"I'm not too sure either."
Hearing this, Saoirse frowned immediately, "I only know that Odinson gave me 10 rings of different colors and asked me to bury them in the Queen's back garden.
I don't see anything special about that ring.
After it was buried, the Queen didn't notice anything.
Then, that day... Her Royal Highness the Queen was admiring flowers and drinking tea in the back garden, when the ground suddenly burst into lights of different colors.
It's a formation.
The moment the Queen was trapped, a dark shadow passed behind her.
I didn't see anything clearly.
The formation was activated for only a moment, and the black shadow disappeared instantly. Then, just after that moment, the Queen's soul was completely shattered, and she died in pieces.
Those 10 rings must be the cornerstones of the latest formation developed by the Magician Academy.
And that black shadow must be the assassin of the Dark Brotherhood. He used the soul-crushing assassination method to kill with one blow, crushing the soul of Her Royal Highness the Queen.
The queen died just like that.
It was me who betrayed her, and if it hadn't been for me, the 10 ring-shaped formation cornerstones wouldn't have been buried in the back garden."
Speaking of this, Saoirse lowered her head and covered her face with her hands.
"No, you are wrong."
Li Guanqi shook his head and said calmly: "If you don't help, there will be a lot of people who will help. You are not the only one who can access the back garden."
"Um?"
Saoirse looked at him blankly.
Li Guanqi said this.
Isabel is dead, but not completely dead.
The queen of the Tulip Empire is now resurrected in the real world. She uses whatever tricks she can to get a rich man to be her dog. Then this woman holds pool parties in the villa and mansion every day and plays with male celebrities.
It’s hard to say whether this life is truly happy, but it’s certainly not miserable in any way.
Li Guanqi met and talked with Isabel.
The queen gave him a must-kill list, which included several members of the Queen's Wings in addition to Saoirse.
Obviously, in the Queen's view, Saoirse was not the only one who helped.
Even if Saoirse doesn't help, the Odinson family can still bury the ring foundation, and the queen still has to die. Saoirse's role here is just a replaceable one. It's best to have her, but it's okay without her.
OK.
But Li Guanqi was not sure whether he should tell Saoirse about this.
Tell her that the Queen is not actually dead?
"Let's get down to business."
Li Guanqi decided to put this matter aside and return to the topic, "How many demigods are there in the Tulip Empire now?"
"One, but it can also be said to be three."
Saoirse said in a deep voice: "After the Queen's death, the Odinson family sent a Nine Palace-level Great Perfection different-blood knight to occupy a demigod seat and become a demigod knight.
This demigod knight is truly a member of our Tulip Empire.
Then, Odinson followed the agreement and allocated a demigod seat to the new magician academy, so the magician academy also had a demigod-level magician.
In addition, there is the Dark Brotherhood.
The killer was originally only a Nine Palace level Dzogchen, but it is said that after he succeeded in assassinating the Queen, he seemed to have an epiphany about his assassination method, and he actually took this opportunity to understand the law to a higher level.
He had a face-to-face battle with the demigod knight of the Odinson family, and he did not fall behind. In this case, he can certainly be regarded as a demigod.
After all, 'demigod' is a title of combat power, not a specific realm.
There is a demigod in the Empire, a demigod in the new sect of magicians, and a demigod in the Dark Brotherhood, but we are basically in an alliance now, and it is not an exaggeration to call them the three demigods."
"Seat of demigods?"
Li Guanqi's focus was on this term, "It's this term again, Miss Saoirse, I really want to know what is going on with the demigods of your Tulip Empire?"
"I am not sure."
Saoirse's mood eased slightly and she shook her head, "This is the empire's top secret. I can't possibly know it, but..."
The beautiful sorceress frowned and said hesitantly: "I have heard the queen say before that the demigod power of our Tulip Empire needs to be obtained by entering a secret realm, but the mortality rate in this secret realm is very high.
I don't know the specific situation.
But according to the Queen, the mechanism of that semi-mysterious realm is like this.
First of all, only those who have opened the Nine Laws Palace are qualified to step into it.
In other words, only Nine Palace-level Dzogchen practitioners can enter it. There are no restrictions on different-blood humans and spellcasters. The only requirement is that the Nine Divine Palaces need to be opened.
Secondly, in that semi-mysterious place, the first person to enter has a very high mortality rate, which is rare in history.
but.
The point is this ‘but’.
After the previous person dies inside, the next person who enters the Nine Palace Level Dzogchen in the secret realm will 100% be able to gain the power of a demigod without any risk.
This basically means two for one.
To be continued...
