God-level Archmage

Chapter 169 Proof of Innocence
An ice arrow shot through Viscount Sargent's mouth and pierced the back of his head.

"Ah!" Jennifer had never seen such a horrible scene before, and suddenly screamed in horror.

Gao Feng said coldly: "If you scream again, I will kill you right away."

Although the sound insulation in the room is good, she can easily cause unnecessary trouble if she screams like this.

Jennifer's screaming stopped suddenly, she covered her mouth, her face was full of horror, but she didn't dare to make any more sound.

Gao Feng frowned and asked, "Is there anything else you want to say?"

Jennifer immediately begged: "I... I don't want to die, please don't kill me, I can satisfy you whatever you want, just please don't kill me."

Gao Feng said: "But I don't want to die either, but you all want to kill me. Now it's your turn, but you say you don't want to die, isn't it very unfair?"

Gao Feng suddenly smiled and said, "I'm suddenly very happy for Harry. Fortunately, you dumped Harry at the beginning. Otherwise, Harry doesn't know how many cuckolds he would wear if he married a wife like you."

Speaking of Harry, Jennifer immediately remembered Harry's obsession with herself, and Jennifer immediately screamed: "You can't kill me, because Harry likes me, he loves me very, very much, if you kill me, he will hate you forever Yes. As long as you let me go, I am willing to marry Harry, and I will live a good life with Harry wholeheartedly. Harry likes me so much, and she will be very happy if I marry him."

"I'm sorry, you don't deserve it." Gao Feng stretched out his hand, and a freezing spell was released. The freezing spell hit Jennifer's body, freezing her body and her life instantly.

Gao Feng thought for a while, and then took Jennifer's body into the Void Realm, let Jennifer become a missing person, and let Harry keep a relatively good memory of her.

As for Viscount Sargent's body, there is no need to move him, just let him stay here and become a witness.

Gao Feng scanned the room with his eyes, and then walked towards the bookcase in the room.

Gao Feng talked so much with Viscount Sargent just now, not for nothing, but to reverse time and space, go to see Viscount Sargent's past, and see what secrets he has. I saw his private small vault. The entrance of the small vault is in this room, just behind the row of bookshelves.

The mechanism to open the bookshelf is a huge vase next to the bookshelf. Turn the vase, and the bookshelf will slowly move to the left, revealing the vault behind.

There is no key in the safe, and the lock on it is a combination lock.

The password peak has seen it just now, enter the password, and the door of the vault will open.

Gao Feng's thoughts swept into the vault, making sure there were no traps in the vault, and then entered the vault.

The safe is not big, just a small secret room of less than ten square meters. The surroundings of the secret room are covered with metal. The metal is shining with a faint light. It is obviously processed by magic, which makes it impossible for the mind to check the safe. The existence of this also prevents the items in the vault from being noticed by outsiders when they emit magic power fluctuations.

The vault is not big, but it is full of various items, gold coins, gems, antiques, and some beautifully crafted magic weapons. This should be all the belongings of Viscount Sargent. Although there are no precious things, but This wealth is also very valuable, at least hundreds of thousands of gold coins can't escape.

Gao Feng did not come in vain.

Wait, what is this, a box of gold cards, one, two, three... fifteen gold cards, each worth 150 gold coins, this box of gold cards is worth [-] million gold coins, this is the whole building The most valuable part of the vault is also the biggest heritage of the Viscount Sargent family.

Gao Feng may have miscalculated. With the gold card in this box, the harvest this time, at least 200 million gold coins, is really amazing.

How could these nobles be so rich? With the 200 million gold coins, as long as they were willing to spend half of it, they could invite high-level assassins to kill Gao Feng people in the city without knowing it.

It's a pity, he can't bear to spend such a big capital, so Gao Feng can live well until now.

Fortunately, it was Gao Feng's fluke, fortunately Gao Feng came to fight back and kill people. If you let him go, let him continue to spend money to buy murders, Gao Feng is not sure, he can survive.

Now, all this has changed, Viscount Sargent is dead, and this sum of money belongs to Gao Feng.

Gao Feng began to pack up the loot, and packed all the property in the vault into the void.

How did Gao Feng know that this sum of property was the wealth accumulated by Viscount Sargent's family for more than 300 years. If not, how could he, a little viscount with no real power, have so much money.

After packing up his belongings, Gao Feng exited the room and went to the residence of Viscount Sargent's family.

After a while, Gao Feng left Viscount Sargent's manor without a sound.

It was not until the next morning that a servant discovered the body, and only then did he know that a murder had occurred in the manor.

Not long after, the body of Viscount Sargent was found, the body of the guard was found, and the bodies of Viscount Sargent's family members were also found.

The murder in the manor soon caused quite a stir in Huangyan City. After all, Viscount Sargent was an aristocrat, and the murder of an aristocrat is definitely a big event, and must be investigated clearly.

After investigation, it was found that the butler and the captain of the guard in the manor were missing, and the treasure house in Viscount Sargent's bedroom was opened, and the property inside was looted. According to various clues, it is easy to conclude that it is the butler of the manor. The captain of the United Guard and an ice mage also took care of this case.

The motivation is easy to understand, it is for property, the property in that treasure house is very tempting.

Moreover, the treasure house was opened by a password, which was obviously done by an acquaintance, and there is no condition for outsiders to know the password.

Now things are simple, issue a warrant to hunt down the escaped butler and guard captain.

It has to be said that these sheriffs are all smart people, and they quickly sorted out the clues of the case. As for whether the murderer can be caught, it has nothing to do with them, at least not so much responsibility, which is what they are happy to do Come up with reasons for this conclusion.

Gao Feng returned to Huangyan City a month later. Within a month, he went to the Bauhinia Forest three hundred miles away. There are many first- and second-level monsters living in the Bauhinia Forest, which is very suitable for him. Such a one-star mage conducts training.

This is the reason for the peak to go out for a month.

Not long after Gao Feng returned to the academy, people from the noble council immediately came to the door.

Gao Feng met the two in the living room of the villa.

Both were members of the Council of Nobles, one called himself Earl Cronke, and the other Earl Abra.

In addition to titles, nobles are also divided into categories, one is real power nobles, the other is fief nobles, and the last kind of nobles is jokingly called literary and artistic nobles.

Both the real power aristocrats and the feudal aristocrats have great influence, and their status is also very high.

The literary aristocrat is a pleasant name. The literary aristocrat has no fiefdom and no real power. Most of the time, he spends leisurely discussing poems and songs, so he is nicknamed the literary aristocrat.

The two nobles in front of them are literary nobles, so they are regarded as earls, but their status is not too high, they just have a false name.

Viscount Sargent is also a literary aristocrat, otherwise, it would not be so easy for Gao Feng to kill him.

Earl Kronk kept a straight face, and he asked Gao Feng unfriendlyly: "Mage Gao, the two of us are here to ask you a few questions under the order of the noble council of this city, please answer them carefully."

Gao Feng bowed his body and said lightly, "Of course, if you have any questions, just ask, and I will answer truthfully."

Although he was very unhappy with this guy's attitude, Gao Feng was not caught by the other party because of his attitude.

Earl Kronk continued: "It's like this. I want to know where you were on the night of the xth last month, what did you do, and why you disappeared for a month later."

Gao Feng said: "It's like this. In order to test myself a month ago, I went to the Bauhinia Forest to hunt and kill monsters. After a month of trials, I killed ten first-level monsters. The workout worked out perfectly, but my body was also exhausted, so I came back for a refresher."

"As for the authenticity of what I said, it's easy to verify. You can send someone to the Thorn Town near the Redbud Forest to check. I have bought all my daily necessities in this town for a month."

After a pause, Gao Feng asked curiously: "Can you tell me what happened? Could it be related to me?"

"Yes, and it's unfortunate news that Viscount Sargent's family was killed a month ago."

"Oh, what a sad news." Gao Feng asked blankly: "Then, what does the killing of Viscount Sargent have to do with me? Do you suspect that I killed it?"

"You misunderstood." Earl Abra coughed and said gently: "We didn't suspect you, it's just because Viscount Sargent's child was killed by you in the duel. It is related to the matter, so come here to inquire, hoping to get more clues."

Gao Feng shook his head and said: "I'm really sorry, you know, my duel with Parnell is sacred and just, so there is no hatred between us, and Viscount Sargent obviously agrees with this very much. A little bit, so he didn't come to trouble me, we live in peace, and I can't provide more clues."

Earl Kronk seemed a little reconciled to this. He opened his mouth and wanted to continue questioning, but Earl Abra didn't give him this chance.

Earl Abra seemed to be relieved, he smiled and said: "Yes, your duel with Parnell is sacred and fair, Viscount Sargent is an upright person, naturally he will not come to trouble you , you have nothing to do with this matter."

Now that Earl Abra had come to a definite conclusion, Earl Kronk had no choice but to keep his mouth shut.

"Then let's say goodbye."

"Both of you, please go slowly." Gao Feng sent the two of them out the door, watching the two gradually go away, a smile slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Earl Abra and Earl Kronk also had a small argument on the road.

Earl Kronk was somewhat dissatisfied with Earl Abra's sloppy, he whispered: "Count Abra, I think this peak mage is still suspicious, we should continue to interrogate, maybe we can get unexpected results Harvest, if we can catch the real murderer of this case, I think our contribution will definitely be huge, this is a murderer who killed a nobleman."

The reason why Earl Kronk is so active in this matter is because of this huge credit.

Count Abra frowned, and said flatly: "The case of Earl Kronk is very clear. It should be the butler and the captain of the guard who joined forces with the robbers. We are just asking Mage Gao as a matter of routine. Mage Gao has a lot of knowledge. Sufficient proof of innocence. It is not a wise decision for you to offend a promising one-star mage because of this kind of thing."

"If you want to continue the investigation, you can go ahead and I don't think I will."

Earl Kronk weighed the pros and cons, still sighed, and said sullenly, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

　I did it, I really did it, finished the fifth update today, a total of [-] words, especially thousands of words in just a few hours tonight.Really tired, but also very satisfied in my heart.I'm working hard, please support me.
