Just as the old man just reminded me, when Daley has already seen that there is something wrong with Dwayne Dantès, no matter how much she conceals it, she will be suspected. It is better to expose a small problem to her appropriately to prevent her from discovering a bigger problem.
question.
"Really? Then you didn't report this to Sost?" Dai Li's narrowed eyes opened, her flirtatious blue eyeshadow and green eyes sparkling.
"It's just suspicion, there is no evidence yet. In fact, even if that guy is an extraordinary person and the source of his property is unknown, but based on these alone, we have no way to catch him, which will make many people panic."
The Church of Night’s attitude towards wild Beyonders is pretty good, but with Dwayne Dantès’ current status, he can no longer be called a wild Beyonder. His assets have allowed him to step into the upper echelons of Backlund.
, a hasty arrest without conclusive evidence will definitely cause panic among some nobles.
Dai Li, who has lived in Backlund for more than half a year, nodded invisibly. When it comes to some nobles and wealthy businessmen, some actions of the three major churches will indeed be more cautious. After all, for these people, Extraordinary people are no longer available.
As for the secret, you will either become an Extraordinary yourself, or you will hire Extraordinary people as your bodyguards, and the church will treat it as invisible.
Leonard's explanation was quite reasonable. Although it was not in line with his past performance, at this time, Dai Li was not willing to waste too much time on a strange rich man.
The reason why the two got together after the meeting was because they were about to investigate the Spiritual Order, which is a secret organization transformed from the original Balam royal family and the Death Church. Azik Eggers is likely to be
A member of the Bailang royal family, a descendant of the God of Death, he was wanted by MI9 because he had a conflict with the people of the Spiritual Religion.
Now that you are investigating the Spiritual Cult, you may be able to find Azik Eggers along this line.

No. 100 Berklund Street, this is the home of Portland Momont, the current president of Becklund University of Technology and Technology.
This great scientist, who has obtained hundreds of thousands of pounds in patent profits from various alloy materials, is instructing his butler and servants to prepare for tomorrow's dinner, and will clean and decorate the living room and dining room. Originally, this was just an ordinary banquet.
, but this morning he suddenly received news that the current Duke Negan and his friend Viscount Derrian also wanted to participate in this banquet.
Before he could figure out the reason, MP Maury Macht, a member of the House of Commons who lived at No. 39 on the same street and was also a guest at the banquet, came to bring another news. Earl Hall also hoped to bring his family.
Attend the party.
This turned what was originally just an ordinary dinner into a political evening where two top nobles met. Portland complained and had to temporarily hire a group of servants to prepare for the dinner.
It was not until noon that some of his political friends brought him news, telling him that the reason why Duke Negan and Earl Hall attended the banquet was for the steam chariot. Portland Mormont was no stranger to steam chariots.
He once accepted a commission from the Ministry of National Defense to select suitable metal armor for combat vehicles. This was also his first project after becoming the principal.
But after this project had been running for a period of time, the Ministry of National Defense suddenly announced that it would not adopt the steam tank solution. But he didn't care. He had encountered this kind of thing many times, not to mention that his laboratory did not lack projects, but it was a pity.
My first project after becoming the principal did not end normally.
But now two top nobles want to re-establish this project?
After getting this news, he felt much more relaxed. Although it might involve politics, it still had to fall into technical issues. So on the one hand, he prepared a banquet at home, and on the other hand, he called several experimental assistants from his laboratory.
Prepare information at home.
Soon, a group of experimental assistants arrived at Portland's house with a pile of information. Under the leadership of the servant, they went directly to the study.
Portland Momont, who was tall, with a ruddy face and thick hair, but was already completely white, held a pipe and sat on a chair. He ordered in a loud voice:
"You have all participated in the steam chariot project, but more than a month has passed, and there are other projects in between, so today and tomorrow you must familiarize yourself with the previous information and designs as soon as possible. You saw it when you came in, and tomorrow
There will be a dinner here in the evening, and if everything goes well, this project will be restarted, which will make up for some of the regrets you and I have."
As the first project of the new laboratory, it was natural for them to have some regrets if it ended halfway.
"Okay, I believe in your abilities. If I remember correctly, when this project ended before, Melissa and Wendy were responsible for the final touches, right?"
Portland set his sights on a girl who was dressed very old-fashionedly and a boy who was tall but whose teeth were not neat. Both of them had good mechanical talents, but they were still younger after all. They were responsible for a man who was affected by politics.
The finishing work of a failed project can provide you with a lot of training.
"Yes, teacher."
"Then you will be responsible for reorganizing the information for the time being this time."
…
Beihai, shallow sea Naga tribe.
After defeating the Deep Sea Naga, the palace made of gray and white rocks has been repaired and expanded, and is nearly half the size of before. In another year or two, the shallow sea Naga will acquire a large number of "Sea Scroller" (Sailor) path characteristics.
There will be an explosive growth in population.
In the palace hall, Naga Queen Yinrodah Nichols is sitting on the throne with her snake tail, her fair skin is exposed, and she is leaning lazily on the white bear mat. Her voice is charming with a hint of majesty:
"Chidora, this promotion ceremony of the 'Ocean Singer' requires you to pay more attention. According to the Deep Sea Naga, those two Obnis are equivalent to Sequence 5. In addition, they are huge. If it is dangerous, you can choose
give up."
"Unless they come together, it won't be a big problem."
Having been promoted to a demigod, the traces of wrinkles on the face of Chidorara, the "Disaster Priest" of Sequence 4, have disappeared, as if he has regained his youth, but his voice still has an old tone.
"That's good."
Yin Luoda flicked his hanging snake tail, feeling quite relaxed, with a look of expectation on his face.
After the Obnis that Asana Naga knew about died at the hands of Deep Sea Naga, they could no longer cultivate "Ocean Singers". However, after destroying Deep Sea Naga, they also gained two more
With the position of Obnis and the presence of Chidora, the "Disaster Priest", there is no need to worry about the future training of "Umilamen".
A few months have passed, and the number of "Windwinders" in the tribe who are qualified to complete the corresponding rituals has reached three. Although the number will increase if it continues, Yin Luoda is worried about the agreement reached with the Tamara family, so he no longer
Continue to wait and let Chidora take you directly to complete the ritual.

At seven o'clock in the evening, the carriage slowly left No. 45 Gatton Street and headed towards the West End.
Rawls, who was wearing a tuxedo, a sapphire blue tie, and a diamond brooch on his chest, was sitting on the small sofa in the carriage, but he was not as relaxed as before. After all, he was attending a banquet. As a member of the aristocracy, he always
Something to pay attention to.
Yesterday morning, he received Philip's notice, and in the afternoon Portland Mormont sent someone to deliver the invitation.
Regarding this banquet, the real purpose of Philip and Earl Hall attending this banquet was not for the steam chariot. It was just incidental and was used as a cover-up. The real purpose was to discuss the influence of the three major churches in the expansion of the military.
On this issue, they must reach an agreement, but they must also consider not causing a backlash from the three major churches, so this banquet was held.
Although the steam chariot is just a new weapon, it is promoted by the Negan family as a weapon mainly equipped to the army, so it makes sense for the heads of the two Negan Hall families to meet.
Thirty-five minutes passed, and the carriage slowly drove into Burklund Street and arrived at No. 100.
Rawls got off the carriage, accompanied by his valet Morris, entered the gate, saw Portland Mormont waiting, and handed over the red wine in the valet's hand.
"Good evening, Mr. Mormont."
"Good evening, Viscount Derrian."
The two had never met before and could only exchange friendly greetings. As Portland led him into the hall, he smiled and asked:
"Is Philip here?"
"Duke Negan hasn't arrived yet, but there are already some guests. I can introduce them to Viscount Derian." Portland thought Rawls was a little embarrassed because most of the guests at the banquet were strangers.
"No, you still have to greet the guests, so I'll do it myself."
After politely refusing, Rawls picked up the champagne from the waiter's hand and walked into the hall to see if there was anyone he was familiar with. But before he could find it, Portland's voice sounded again at the entrance to the hall behind him.
"Viscount Derrian."
Rawls turned around and saw a middle-aged man standing next to Portland. He looked about 180 years old and was in his early 180s. He had black hair mixed with some silver threads, deep eyes, good-looking facial features, and a sense of maturity and elegance.
temperament.
"Let me introduce to you, this is Dwayne Dantès, who comes from Dixi and has recently returned to Backlund. This is Viscount Adrian, the owner of Adrian Law Firm. You are all believers of the goddess of the night.
, I think there will be good communication.”
Rao was somewhat prepared when he saw it, but when he heard Portland's introduction, Rawls was still a little surprised. He politely stretched out his hand and said:
"I am Rolls Adrian."
"Dwayne Dantès."
Klein also extended his hand. He had heard news about the other party on the way to Portland. He had also heard the name of the barrister when he was in Tingen and Backlund before, but he didn't know that the other party was actually
Obtained the title of Viscount. When the other party saw him, there was obvious surprise in his eyes, as if he had seen him or heard of him.
"I heard before that a devout believer of the goddess came to Backlund, but I didn't have the chance to meet him."
Did you hear it from Bishop Electra? Klein spread his hands, lit the red moon on his chest, and said with a smile:
"Then thank the goddess for allowing us to meet here today."
"Praise to the Goddess." Rawls also painted a red moon.
Seeing that the two had a pleasant conversation, Portland also left and continued to greet the guests who had not yet arrived.
"Mr. Dantès is from Duchy? I haven't been there for vacation for many years." Rawls said with emotion, rubbing his temples, "Maybe I haven't been there since I went to Tingen to study.
"
"Tingen?" Klein's eyelids twitched, and then he asked doubtfully, "Didn't Mr. Viscount study in Backlund?"
He remembered Portland saying that Rawls was from Backlund, so why did he come to Tingen to study.
"I was too young at the time."
Oh, this is because I want to get rid of my parents’ wings... Klein smiled and nodded:
"When you are young, you should be more adventurous."
The two chatted for a few more minutes. Most of the time, Rawls was asking questions and Klein was answering. Fortunately, the latter was prepared for most of the questions, such as what kind of business he did in Dixi and where he came from.
Backlund's reasons and so on.
"If M. Dantès is interested in a title, he might as well consider 'lifetime peerage'."
"Oh, 'lifelong noble'?" Klein appropriately expressed doubts.
But before Rawls could answer, he heard a voice coming from outside the hall, and the guests in the hall also walked towards the door.
"Phillip and Earl Hall should be here. Let's go there too."
"That's fine."
Klein breathed a sigh of relief. He was really under a lot of pressure with Viscount Derian. He had too many questions. As expected of a barrister, he probably wouldn't be able to find a suitable answer if the conversation continued.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Should he be an extraordinary person, a "lawyer"?
He had just followed Rawls a few steps forward when he remembered what the other party had just said, "Philip and Earl Hall"? Is that the current Duke Negan?
Why are these two great nobles here?
No, I'm not the host of the banquet, so I don't need to care about who the guests are... Klein shook his head slightly, but he still had a bad feeling in his heart, so he went to the bathroom to do some divination soon.
He followed Rawls to the door and found that many guests were also a little surprised. He looked outside. The host of the banquet, Portland Momont, was talking to a tall young man with signs of putting on weight and a middle-aged aristocrat. The former
It should be the young Duke Philip Negan, who is the Earl of Hall.
Behind them, MP Maury Macht, a member of the House of Commons, could only listen quietly. Behind him were two ladies, one was the wife of MP Macht, and the other should be Countess Hall.
, there was a noble girl standing next to them.
Hazel Macht, a suspected Extraordinary of the "Stealer" path... Klein shifted his gaze to the other person, his eyes lit up at first and then solidified.
He was a blonde with blue eyes, and he was the most eye-catching person among the guests in terms of appearance and temperament, even better than Hazel next to him.
Klein has met her and knows her. She is the "Justice" of the Tarot Society.
With the help of "Magic Mirror Divination", I had seen the other person's appearance.
Just as he was about to look away, someone bumped into his shoulder. Klein looked along the source of the force, met the eyes of Viscount Derian Rawls, and saw the smile on the corner of his mouth.
