There was a sound on the table, and the Queen Mother patted the table and stood up.
"Someone killed it, I have to find that person and cut him into pieces!"
she shouted.
However, the Demon King frowned slightly and said calmly: "Sit down."
The Queen Mother stood for a while, then sat back obediently after a few seconds, and then stopped talking.
Next to her, Mel sat tremblingly on a chair, not daring to breathe.
"Although this is a trouble caused by your unauthorized actions, this incident also proves that someone is secretly obstructing us."
The Demon King said, of course he already knew who it was, the woman in red, the doll must have been left by her, and she deliberately turned Yoshitetsu into a monster just to attract the attention of the Adventurer's Guild.
Come to think of it, this person has been against him. The Demon King doesn't know why. Is this retribution for abandoning his disciple?
No, no, no, he would not be superstitious about these things. There must be some reason for this, such as what impact his expansion had on her.
Moreover, this batch of grain did not sell as fast as he expected. He underestimated the selfishness of businessmen. Those big businessmen who did not cooperate with him blocked information about his shop, and even spread some rumors, such as the current cost of transporting grain.
Being detained and fined etc.
Not only them, but also those wandering merchants, who are the current main customers of the Demon King. In order to reduce competitors and keep the prices of their goods high, they will put some thought into putting other goods in the carriage to cover up their goods.
And kept silent about it.
Therefore, outside of Stone, almost no one knows that grain is sold here.
"Let all your people leave here, let them bring a message, and let them not come near here."
The Demon King looked at the Queen Mother and said.
"good."
The Queen Mother did not dare to oppose him this time.
"Mel."
"Ah, I'm here!"
Mel was startled when she heard her name. She looked over nervously and saw a pair of dark eyes. For some reason, her uneasy heart suddenly calmed down.
"I'm leaving for a while, you stay and look after the store."
"Oh? Me?"
Mel pointed to himself, somewhat unable to believe his ears.
"Yes, you stay to protect her and don't make any mistakes, do you understand?" the Demon King ordered the Queen Mother.
"All right."
The Queen Mother muttered.
The Demon King stood up, and suddenly a magic made his voice reach the ears of many people. Some of them were in warehouses, some on the streets, some in underground passages, and some were sitting on seats full of food.
Big sleep.
"Everyone in Stone Ancient City, listen up. From now on, Mel's words are my words, and you all have to listen to her."
Many people were stunned in place, and before they could react, the sound disappeared.
"Yes, Master..."
They nodded slightly and continued to do their work as usual.
"Where are you going?"
The Queen Mother couldn't help but ask.
The devil glanced at her.
"I'm going to clean up someone's mess."
After saying that, he turned into darkness and disappeared into the room, leaving behind a bewildered Mel and the mother and queen who were secretly thankful that they were not scolded much.
…
At this time, in a certain hotel room, light balls hung on the ceiling like light bulbs, there were many documents on the long table, and a dozen people gathered around the table, as if they were discussing something.
"We will split up, Bilox. You stay in the city and communicate with the union's informants. We will obtain evidence tonight."
Rael said.
Standing opposite her was a middle-aged man with short hair. He had a very friendly face, and you could tell at a glance that he was a good person.
Bilox is indeed a good man and very silent, but this does not affect the fact that he is very reliable.
"Glenor and I will go to the place indicated in the note. If we don't come back within three days, then report to the president for me." After Rael said this, everyone except Bilox and Greno
In addition, the dark adventurers showed surprised expressions.
"Miss! You don't want to take such a risk, why not let me go? My ability is best at exploring paths!"
Edel was the first to persuade.
"Yes, miss! This must be a trap."
"You can't go. This is the territory of monsters. It's too dangerous."
They said one after another.
Only Pilox was silent. He suddenly spoke, his voice was very low, but the others immediately fell silent.
"Can you tell me the reason?"
That's what he said.
"It's just intuition."
Rael replied. Her round glasses reflected a light, making her eyes invisible. The butler Grenot stood behind her, and the two of them gave people a very mysterious feeling.
"Aren't you a rationalist?"
"No, Piroux, please persuade her quickly."
"The union cannot live without you."
The room was filled with chaotic sounds again.
"Okay, have a nice trip."
However, Bilox said something that left everyone speechless.
"Well, for the union." Leer said.
"For the union..."
The others lowered their heads and said reluctantly.
As the top planner, Reyelle Phoenix likes to be on the most dangerous front lines. This is what makes everyone willing to join her team, but it is also the characteristic that worries them the most.
As a result, the investigation team was divided into two sides. One side directly conducted a strong investigation and directly collected evidence that Acas used the demon species. They wanted to directly remove Acas from power. The union took this opportunity to conduct a thorough investigation of Stone Ancient City.
The Demon King stood at the highest point of the city wall, looking down at the city.
They won't find any clues, they will only find Arcas who doesn't know anything. Just because Mikki doesn't know anything, they can't ask anything useful.
The trouble is on the other side, as Rael and Greno are heading east.
Of course, the Demon King can make them get lost for a few days without knowing it, so that they can retreat before the difficulties, or he can directly turn them into his puppets, although that may be noticed and cause bigger problems.
But it can last until the city is completely under his control and his first batch of troops are released. At that time, these problems will no longer be a problem.
But now it's very embarrassing. The Demon King needs time. He can't let these two people die. They have the entire union behind them.
Suddenly, the devil thought of a bold idea.
Maybe he was crazy to do this, but he wanted to give it a try.
The demon king on the city wall had disappeared without knowing when.
The morning sun in the east was particularly red, and there were two lines of footprints in the snow, extending straight towards the sun. At this time, there was a strange sound in the city that no one could hear, a long and ethereal black sound that reached to the horizon.
