Everyone in the room was shocked by the picture projected by the magic crystal ball.

How long has it been since they last saw such a bloody scene?

One year, two years, or even five years? !

As the picture continued, more bloody pictures appeared in the picture.

Headless corpses, people who were eaten to the point of only having a pair of legs left...

Suddenly, a noble seemed to be unable to bear it and hurried out to vomit.

I don't know how long it took for the picture to disappear, but everyone didn't react and was still immersed in the picture just now, unable to extricate themselves.

You know, these are all living people, but they died tragically there.

How long has it been since the empire suffered such a serious attack.

Bang!

Just when the whole room fell into silence.

Suddenly, the sound of a cup breaking on the ground was heard.

Everyone turned around and saw that Wade had thrown the cup to the ground.

"What is going on? Why did this happen!"

Wade asked angrily.

A town was bloodbathed. Such a terrible incident has not happened in so many years.

The nobles lowered their heads. They just learned about this situation and rushed over.

Originally, they thought it was the orcs' business, but they didn't expect it to be something more serious.

"Your Majesty, according to the news sent back by the Knights in front, many corpses of monsters were found in the town."

"This town should have been attacked by monsters..."

At this time, Ship slowly spoke.

"What do you mean it was attacked by monsters? How is this possible? In the past ten years, I have never heard of such a large-scale monster attacking people."

Wade would rather believe that the orcs attacked them than believe that the monsters actually attacked a town directly.

"And isn't there a magic barrier in the dark forest? There are only some low-level monsters below level three in the barrier. Even if they attack on a large scale, it is impossible for the entire town to be destroyed by monsters!"

"Isn't there an Adventurer's Guild and a church in the town?!"

Wade asked excitedly.

He simply couldn't understand. Even in this small town, there were at least thousands of people. How could they all be wiped out? !

"Your Majesty, the president of the Adventurer's Guild, President Angus, also died. He died at the entrance of the Dark Forest."

"According to the information sent back by the Knights in front, Angus' body was completely hollowed out... Only a shell was left..."

Ship paused and then said.

"It looked very tragic..."

Ship deliberately did not show the death of President Angus, because the appearance of the corpse made him sick.

It was really too cruel.

Ship really couldn't think of what kind of monster could do such a thing.

"But the president of the town's church, Hubert, survived."

"He was the only one who survived in the entire town!"

Ship continued.

"How did he survive? Where is he now?"

"Your Majesty, he is now controlled by the Knights, but the church wants to take him back... This matter..."

"Ask first!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Hipp was reassured after hearing Wade's words.

Because the president of the church is a member of the church after all, according to the regulations, they have no right to detain people from the church.

But this matter is too strange and sudden.

Only the president of the church survived in the whole town, and if you want to know the truth, you must interrogate the president to find out.

"I will tell the church about this matter in person, you can just interrogate him, and you must find out what happened!"

Wade looked at Ship and said.

"Everyone, the Dark Forest and our empire are bordered by a large area. The cities you manage are very close to the Dark Forest. These cities should immediately enter a state of war readiness and report any suspicious situations immediately."

"Then don't go into the Dark Forest if you can avoid it during this period. Wait until the matter is thoroughly investigated before making plans!"

Wade said to the nobles in the room.

Then Wade reminded them of some other things.

"Okay, you guys go down first!"

Wade waved his hand and said a little tiredly.

In the end, only the eldest prince Cohen and Ship were left in the room.

"Why don't you two leave?"

"Is there anything else?"

Wade frowned as he looked at the two of them.

"Father, just now, the otherThere is one thing that Knight Commander Sip did not say. "

Cohen looked at Wade and said.

"Huh? There is one more thing? Why didn't you say it just now?"

Wade was even more confused when he heard Cohen's words.

"Your Majesty, this matter... cannot be announced to the public for the time being!"

"And it has not been confirmed yet... I want Your Majesty to send someone to confirm..."

Wade was even more confused when he heard what Ship said, which also made Wade's back a little cold.

"What is it? Tell me!"

"Your Majesty, when the Knights checked the core of the church's magic barrier... they did not find any magic barrier core... That is to say... the magic barrier arranged in the dark forest... may have expired."

"What! .... What a joke!"

"Father!"

Seeing Wade shaking his body and looking a little unstable, Cohen immediately stepped forward to support Wade.

"I... I'm fine! "

Wade took a deep breath and looked at Cohen.

"Hip, is what you just said true?"

"Yes, the core of the magic circle was originally stored in the church for safekeeping. It would be opened for inspection and maintenance every year... According to the report of last year's inspection, everything was normal..."

"But..."

Wade heard what Ship said and knew that only one of the two sides could be lying.

But now all the signs show that the church is lying.

"Father, I want to ask to investigate this matter thoroughly and go to the town in person!"

This is what Cohen said to Wade.

"You?"

Wade looked at his son and said with some surprise.

"Father, you must be worried about handing this matter to others. It would be better to hand it to me, and you will feel more at ease! "

Wade nodded after hearing what Cohen said. This matter was too important.

If it was true, it would not just be this small town, but all the barriers near the Dark Forest might have disappeared!

This magic barrier was originally a natural barrier for the empire, but if it disappeared now...it would undoubtedly make the empire vulnerable to attack from both sides!
