"You've got the right person," said Hood, grinning, his voice a little hoarse that made it difficult to tell his age, "Don't look at me living in the outer city, I happened to be near the palace on the day of the incident, and as soon as the roar sounded, I ran outside the palace gate. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoYou probably don't know how amazing the loud noise was, if the thunder in the sky bloomed on the ground, the windows of the surrounding houses, whether papier-mâché or glass, were destroyed by invisible forces, and some people were scared to death because of the sudden noise......"

Each rat claimed to be nearby and had witnessed the whole story, but when you compare them, you can see that each has a different story. "Well, stop dwelling on these meaningless things, how did it happen?" interrupted Otto Losi, "is this really related to the Fourth Prince...... Roland Wimbledon?"

Hood coughed twice and held out his right hand, "Of course I can tell you, but ......"

"You need to weigh all things," Otto said, unzipping his pocket, "how much?"

The so-called measure of all things is just another name for the golden dragon, and there are only groups like rats, who like to set up some simple codes or passwords to show off the mystery, and there is no level at all.

The other party made a two-to-two gesture.

He took out two golden dragons and put them in his hooded hand, "This is not a cheap fee, I hope your message is worthy of it." ”

"Of course, it's about the credibility of the skull fingers," the other party smiled greedily and took the golden dragon into his arms.

The credibility of the rat is probably as ridiculous as the king's benevolence, and Otto snorted coldly in his heart, "Say it." ”

"I'll answer your first question first," he said, probably with the gratuity in his arms, and his hood was much more relaxed, he took a sip of ale, leaned back in his chair, and then pointed to the ceiling, "Thunder comes from heaven. ”

"What do you mean," Otto frowned.

"Didn't you ask how the loud bang happened?" said the other in a low voice, "All thunder comes from the sky, and this time is no exception. I witnessed a white stone drift into the palace before the roar sounded, and then what happened next. ”

"Ridiculous! Do you want to tell me that a boulder fell from the sky and destroyed most of the palace?"

"Hehe, what I said is true, otherwise Skull Fingers wouldn't have assigned this job to me, and if you think I'm talking nonsense, you can leave now," the hood shrugged, "but the fee won't be refunded." ”

“...... Go on. Otto suppressed his displeasure.

"It only took a few breaths from the time the stone appeared to the time it fell into the palace, but I could see clearly at the time that it was not very big and not fast, and it was probably impossible to smash the palace of the sky, so I called it floating. In addition, at the same time as the loud noise and thick smoke appeared, I also saw the tumbling fire, which was so powerful that it was definitely not caused by the impact. "Actually, didn't His Majesty Tifeko's final search confirm this—the closed inner city was cleared several times, and no suspects were caught, and the palace area itself was heavily guarded, so if the attack didn't come from the sky, where could it come from?"

He took another sip of ale, "As for the fire and smoke, it resembles the phenomenon produced when an alchemical item called snow powder burns, which is why I am sure it is an attack. By the way, I know a little bit about the snow powder as well, but you'll have to pay extra for it, just ......"

"No, I don't want to know. Otto interrupted. He had heard a little about this thing from other sources, it was originally a celebration item, and it could be used as a weapon after improvement, and it was unlikely that the rat knew its specific ingredients, so there was no need for him to waste money here.

"Well, now for your second question. Hood spread his hands disappretently and said, "There is no doubt about this matter—it has a lot to do with the fourth prince." ”

"Why?"

"I don't know when you arrived in the royal capital? Of course, I'm not asking about your origins or ...... Identity, this is the inquiry rule of the black street, you don't need to answer me," the other party chuckled, "I mean, if you arrived in the royal capital in early autumn, you must know one thing: His Majesty the King has sent thousands of troops to attack the western border, but few have returned alive, and these defeated soldiers still carry the documents handed over to His Majesty by the Fourth Prince. ”

The six rats all mentioned it, and it seemed that it was basically correct, but he still had to ask, "You mean the prophecy of revenge?" It's a bit sensational, are you sure it's not a folk rumor?"

"Most of the paperwork followed the rout into the palace, and the few that came out were mostly scavenged by the town hall, but the skeletal fingers always surprise customers. In fact, I have a copy of the trailer here. Hood held out five fingers, "What do you think, considering that it is a letter from the prince and that it is rare in quantity, so the price will be a little higher?"

......

Otto Lossy braved the cold wind and returned to the palace, and Belinda immediately greeted him, "Is there any new news?"

"Not much, but I got a paper from the fourth prince," he said, handing him the crumpled note, and then took off his coat and sat down in front of the fireplace, and recounted the inquiry in detail, "The six rats have basically the same answer to the second question, and with this note, the result should be clear—Roland Wimbledon is not at all as weak as His Majesty said, and even on the contrary, if the Kingdom of Dawn enters into an alliance with Tifeco, it may not be beneficial, and it will add a troublesome enemy to itself." ”

"But for the first question, the rats had different answers," Belinda frowned.

"It proves that the attack came so weirdly that almost no one knows how it happened, and I kind of believe the last mouse. Otto took a sip of hot tea and exhaled a long breath of turbidity, feeling uncomfortable after staying in the cheap tavern for a long time.

"From the sky?" Belinda looked at him in surprise, "Are you crazy?"

"Of course not, if I hadn't seen this document, I wouldn't have dared to think about it. He was confident in the timing and location of his attack, and that only by attacking from the sky could he get past the towering walls and tight defenses, and make it impossible for well-informed rats to know," he pouted, "but that's not the point, it's what we do next." ”

"The threat to the church is imminent, and they should end the confrontation and unite against the foreign enemy. ”

"That's not something we can decide," Otto shook his head, "the only thing we can do is to secure as many reliable allies as possible for the Dawn Kingdom." His Majesty Tifeco Wimbledon now looks ...... It doesn't seem to be reliable. ”

"Do you want to go to the West?" Belinda was slightly stunned, "Isn't it in danger because of the Demon Moon?"

"It's nothing compared to the danger of the kingdom's fall," he made up his mind after a moment of silence, "and you will stay here and wait for the new king's reply, and I will go alone on this trip to the West." ”
