Alien world

Chapter 1048 279. Advancement
He stood in front of the gate, his hard boots soles crunching on the snow.

"Gratton, nice to meet you."

"I... I'm the butler." The butler who came out to buy time for Gratton said haltingly, "The master is not at home..."

"How could that be? My people just saw him at the window." With the unique arrogance and pride of young people, Young Master Olme tilted his head and said, "Let's go in and say hello to Gradon."

"You...you can't go in!" The butler tried to stand in front of Annan, but was pushed away by him.

When they were about to break into the manor, a roar sounded:

"Mr. Olme!"

"Little... Kyle?" Annan looked at the little bat falling from the sky, and a flash of surprise passed through his mind: "Mr. Kyle, do you know Gratton?"

"Graton is the Grand Duke's man. Do you dare to cause trouble for Lord Barbatod?"

"Mr. Kyle, I'm just following orders."

Annan still maintained a trace of respect for him, which comforted Kyle a little and made him happy to play this scene with him.

"Whose order?"

"Mr. Councillor."

"impossible!"

Annan took out the amulet given to him by the chairman of the parliament: "Every move I make has been approved by the chairman of the parliament!"

Kyle's pupils shrank slightly, because the amulet was real... What was going on, why was the Speaker on the side of Annan?
and many more……

Kyle vaguely remembered that the Councillor's last name was Augusta, and the Deputy City Lord of Annan was also named Augusta...

Kyle and the butler, who looked ashen, said thoughtfully:
"Tell your master that Grand Duke Barbatode has no say in this matter."

"Lord Kyle..."

Kyle didn't listen to the rest of the words and flew up like a big bat... Hey, where is his black cloak?
Annan retracted his gaze and continued to give orders: "Begin the search. Anyone who dares to resist will be killed on the spot!"

Even the legendary wizard was scared away. The butler and guards had no idea of ​​resisting and let the people from the Purification Court break in, capture their grandfather, search everywhere, and do to them what they had done to others.

The men under the Purification Court were all experts at confiscating houses. In less than twenty minutes, they had scraped off a layer of the wall coated with gold powder.

Returning to the Purification Court, Annan couldn't wait to go to the dungeon.

Chatting with Gratton, who had a gloomy face and refused to speak: "Did you know? Milburn, Barr and the others were originally imprisoned in this cell."

There was some fluctuation in Gratton's eyes.

"Do you know why I arrested you?"

Gratton said hoarsely: "I didn't collude with the Free Blade..."

"Tell me everything you know."

"I didn't collude with the Free Blade..."

He repeated this sentence over and over again, refusing to cooperate.

Terry came over and said, "Do you want us to beat him for a few minutes before interrogating him?"

Annan stared at Graton, whose fat body was trembling, shook his head, and suddenly said, "Princess Sayles."

Gratton looked up in surprise, but he showed no panic or evasiveness.

"Your current evidence is enough to go to Milburn and the others, but if you can tell me something that interests me, I will allow you to make amends for your crime."

"I know nothing..."

Annan asked a few more questions and confirmed that the warden really knew nothing. He handed him over to his subordinates and rushed to the main location of the clue - the residence of the Sugra grain collector.

In order to avoid being discovered and tracked down by the people behind the scenes, Annan picked a few lucky people from the list. Anyway, they have committed many evil deeds, and if they live one more day, the civilians will suffer one more day.

With so many people coming in, the dungeon suddenly became extremely lively. Sugra, who was imprisoned in the cell, was dejected. He had heard of Olmeshao's reputation and the horror of the Purification Court dungeon. It was said that no one who came in could get out alive, even the royal family was no exception...

Fortunately, not only did he not collude with the Free Blade, he also did not embezzle much money. Young Master Olme should not be forced to confess, right?
And a little bit of relief that it wasn't that...

"Why did you kill Olga to silence her?"

Sukla's pretended calm was broken: "I don't know what you are talking about..."

"He is still alive. The Shadow Brotherhood you entrusted to do the job is not very reliable."

"I...he is blocking my way. If I want to get promoted, I have to get rid of him. And he is..." Sugra quickly thought of an excuse and perfected it.

"Sugla, who asked you to harm Princess Saiers?"

Then all the hopes were shattered by Annan's words.

He knows everything...

Sugra's expression didn't need any further probing, so Annan chuckled and said, "I got you."

"Tell me everything you know."

Sugra was silent, and Annan was not in a hurry: "If you can be sent to kill Olga, someone will be sent to kill you. I actually saved you."

"I'll die if I tell anyone."

"You will die if you don't tell anyone."

At this time, the subordinate came to the side and said: "Sir, he must be referring to the spell that will kill anyone who mentions the relevant content."

Annan looked at Sugra inquiringly and got his confirmation.

"Can you untie it?" Annan asked his men.

"I can't detect anything, at least it's a spell above the eighth ring..." The subordinate who was already an elite wizard shook his head.

It seems that Skeleton King or Kayle needs to help, but Annan has a more suitable candidate.

He took out the amulet given to him by the chairman and activated it directly.

A soft white light that was not very strong lit up in the dungeon, and the head senator in a white robe walked out.

Sugra was stunned. When he confirmed that this was not an illusion, he lowered his head and said, "I'll tell you."

The importance of the chairman of the parliament in the eyes of the people of the kingdom was more important than Annan had imagined. Just by standing there, Sugra didn't want to hide anything anymore.

"Don't worry, let me remove the curse for you first."

The senator knew what was going on as soon as he used his magic power to investigate. He raised his staff and condensed a milky white halo that fell on Sugra.

It seemed as if some shackles had melted away. Sugra felt relieved, knelt on the ground, and told everything he knew:

Sugra was only the executor of this huge conspiracy, and the real murderer was someone else - that was for sure. How could he, a mere grain collector, have the guts to murder the royal family?

"Who is your upline?"

"I can't contact that big shot. I only know that the person who contacted me is a butler named Ruby..."

The Councillor looked towards the other cells in the dungeon.

"They are a cover, and I'm worried about being discovered by the people behind the scenes," Annan explained.

The chairman of the parliament looked at Annan: "Only one day has passed."

"I've always had good luck," Annan smiled modestly.

The Councillor took the amulet, recharged it, and returned it to Annan: "Do what you want to do, no one can stop you... I'm waiting for your good news."

This time Annan can really walk sideways in the new king's capital. Even if he beats Agarwal, the chairman of the parliament will think there is some hidden meaning.
