The next morning, when the sun was rising, Lin Tianqi, who had slept beautifully all night with Mia in his arms, woke up from his sleep, and then did another morning exercise that was good for his body and mind.
By the time I finally got dressed and came out of the room, it was already three o'clock in the morning and it was almost ten o'clock in the morning.
"Master."
Not long after, in the manor, after receiving the news, Matthew quickly came to Lin Tianqi, bowed respectfully and shouted.
Lin Tianqi nodded slightly when he heard this and asked while drinking the morning tea brought by the maid.
"How is the situation outside? Is there anything special happening?"
Matthew heard this and immediately bowed to report.
"Back to the young master, the news of last night's assassination has spread throughout the city, and the entire city has been put under martial law. Searches are being carried out everywhere to find the murderer, but there is no news about the murderer yet."
Lin Tianqi nodded slightly when he heard this. This situation was within his expectation. If such a big thing happened, the Luoying Principality would conduct a large-scale investigation. However, the results of the investigation would basically not be enough to find the murderer or to find out anything in a short time.
It's possible, because all the murderers last night have been solved by him, and they were the ones who destroyed the corpses and wiped out traces. In this case, it is naturally impossible to find the murderer directly.
"Is there anything else?"
Lin Tianqi asked again.
"Prince Charles, Princess Chris, Miss Daisy, Master Clinton and others all sent people here in the morning and gave them some gifts. They said they wanted to thank you for what you did last night."
Matthew immediately started reporting again.
"okay, I get it."
Lin Tianqi nodded again, and then after asking a few simple questions and finding out that there was nothing else to do, he didn't say much and took Mia directly to the front hall to start eating.
During the meal, several groups of people came outside the manor one after another. They were all sent by the aristocratic forces of the surviving young masters and ladies who attended the banquet at the Pearl Tower last night. They mainly wanted to express their gratitude for last night.
After all, Lin Tianqi played a vital role in allowing them to survive last night, so they all sent people over to give gifts to express their gratitude early in the morning.
Of course, expressing gratitude is one of the purposes, and it may also be another reason to want to get closer to Lin Tianqi.
Lin Tianqi didn't pay much attention to these, but he didn't refuse and still lived his peaceful life.
In the outside world, it was already in turmoil.
This incident had a great impact on the Principality of Luoying. The princes and princesses of our country and representatives of allied countries were assassinated, as well as countless nobles and young ladies, causing a large number of casualties. Only the dead nobles and young ladies reached the
There are dozens of people, and most of them are very outstanding young people. The impact can be imagined.
Even Charles and Chris were temporarily banned as punishment, because although they were not responsible for the assassination, they organized the entire banquet. Now that something like this has happened and the murderer has not been found, who will they take the blame for?
Taking the blame, even Messer Luo Ying had to show this to appease the anger of the princes and nobles who had lost their heirs, so as to avoid internal disharmony.
In one day, the entire Luoying City and the large and small cities within a radius of several hundred miles around Luoying City were conducted a large-scale, land-scraping search.
And this is just the beginning.
In the following time, the entire Luoying Province and even the entire northern region of Luoying went directly into a large-scale search.
The assassination incident at Luoying Lake Pearl Tower spread like a hurricane and swept through the entire Luoying Principality.
.............................
In a corner of the Luoying Principality, Gu Ao and several other members of the God-killing Society gathered together, looking at the news about the assassination in their hands with different expressions.
"Arch Mage, what do you think about this matter?"
A middle-aged mage in black robe looked at Gu Ao and asked.
"I heard that the envoy from the Sapphire Principality came here because there was also an evil spirit incident in the Sapphire Principality. Therefore, they formed an alliance with the Luoying Principality to jointly investigate and deal with the evil spirit incident. Will this assassination be related to this? Leading
Is this person the mastermind behind the evil spirit incident?"
Guao nodded slightly when he heard this.
"There is a possibility that if the people behind the evil spirit incident do not want the Luoying Principality and the Sapphire Principality to unite, then this assassination is probably their plan. The purpose is to destroy the alliance between the two countries. Once the assassination plan is successful, they can kill
If the prince and princess of the Sapphire Principality are removed, it will naturally be a huge damage to the alliance between the two countries."
"If that's the case, what should we do?"
Another middle-aged man next to him asked again.
"Continue to pursue the investigation and find out the reasons behind these evil ghost incidents."
Guao said with a thoughtful expression.
"Our main purpose is to trace the traces of the gods. I have a hunch that this evil spirit incident may be an important clue for us to find the traces of the gods."
The group of people nodded immediately, and then the middle-aged Black Pao Master who spoke first spoke again in amazement.
"This Karl Baruch is really amazing. I didn't expect that not only in terms of magic, but also in terms of knights, he has become a titled knight. He is really hidden deep enough. If it weren't for this assassination, I'm afraid
No one knows yet that a seven-year-old official mage and a seven-year-old titled knight are really——"
At the end of the sentence, the black-robed mage couldn't help but show a bit of admiration and envy on his face.
"It's really amazing. It's a pity that he couldn't become our companion."
Gu Ao also nodded, a little surprised and a little regretful.
Several other members of the God-Slaying Society who were also present also nodded.
This time, with the news of the assassination, the strength of Lin Tianqi's title knight also came out, which naturally caused quite a shock again.
Although the upper limit of the knight's status is far lower than that of the mage, the seven-year-old titled knight is also a promising mage, which naturally has a different meaning.
What's more, although the upper limit of knights is low, it is recognized that they are strong in melee combat. However, for pure mages, melee combat is a recognized shortcoming. Lin Tianqi has now become an official mage and a titled knight, which has undoubtedly made up for it.
The mage's shortcomings in melee combat are undoubtedly a huge improvement in terms of strength, and naturally he has to be compared with others.
But at this moment, a somewhat abrupt and cold voice sounded.
"I won't be worse than him."
Several people looked for the voice and saw that the person who spoke looked like a young boy of thirteen or fourteen years old. Who else could it be if it wasn't Duranke.
For Duranke, Lin Tianqi has almost become the lifelong enemy in his heart. He has sworn many times in his heart to defeat the enemy. At this moment, when he hears the people around him praising his enemy like this, it makes him feel uncomfortable
How could he be so arrogant and arrogant? He felt the eyes of Gu Ao and others looking over and said.
"I will show you who is the best genius in the world."
Like an oath, Duranke's tone was extremely serious.
.....................
"Sarge, your people failed?"
night,
In the ancient forest, in a huge dark temple, a hoarse voice suddenly remembered.
"Just a little accident."
Then another somewhat indifferent voice sounded.
"It's a small accident, but don't delay my god's return plan."
Another slightly sarcastic voice sounded.
"I have my own sense of what I do. I will handle this matter on my own. You don't need to worry about it."
The indifferent voice said indifferently upon hearing the words.
"Really? Then why did someone go to Luoying Principality three years ago and suddenly come back and not see anyone for a year? Tsk, tsk, he must have been beaten back by someone."
The slightly sarcastic and joking voice from before sounded again, obviously not dealing with the owner of the indifferent voice known as Sage.
"snort!"
The owner of the indifferent voice seemed to be in pain, so he snorted heavily and said no more.
For a while, the temple returned to silence again.
............
Seven days later.
Outside Luoying City.
A deserted forest somewhere.
Lin Tianqi stood in the void with his hands behind his back, looking at the forest below. He slowly extended his right hand and flicked his fingers towards the entire forest below.
Whoosh!
A black light suddenly flew out from Lin Tianqi's fingertips and landed on the crown of a big tree below.
Immediately afterwards, in sight, the entire body of the big tree withered from the crown downwards.
The leaves, branches, and tree trunks all suddenly lost their green color. First they became yellow and shriveled, and finally they turned completely gray and lifeless. All the vitality disappeared. The life on the entire tree seemed to disappear in an instant, and it became
lifeless.
A gray-black air flow filled with the aura of death spread along the big trees to the surrounding vegetation.
Facing this gray-black spread of death, all the vegetation that came into contact withered and died instantly like the big trees at the beginning. Even some snakes, insects, rats, ants and other creatures under the soil layer died one after another.
All the vitality in his body disappeared, and a letter of gray-black death arose.
In less than a moment, the entire mountaintop turned into a dead land, and everything, including vegetation and living creatures, was extinct.
In the end, it was Lin Tianqi who took action to eliminate that little bit of death power, otherwise it would only spread further.
"Is this the power of death, which destroys all vitality and is the ultimate goal of life?"
Looking at the results in front of him, Lin Tianqi's eyes flickered slightly, showing a trace of satisfaction.
In seven days, he came into contact with the death energy and understood the true meaning of death through the death spells he had obtained from the memory of the man in black robe, and he also advanced to the third level like other true meanings.
And in terms of power, the true meaning of death did not disappoint him.
The power of death, the ultimate in life, destroys and devours all vitality, and is also highly contagious and contagious.
Just like just now, Lin Tianqi even just used a little power of death to easily wipe out all the living creatures on a hilltop. This was the reason why he finally took action to solve the problem. Otherwise, I am afraid that this entire mountain forest would become a dead place.
And this is just his experimental attack.
He now wants to see if the God of Death in this world can surpass himself in controlling the power of death.
