Chapter 27

In other words, after Santes left Yu Chao's house.

At first, he was so anxious that he could not wait to let all the senior officials of Santa City know about Hyland's great changes immediately.

However, as the carriage moved forward, Santes became suspicious again.

Is what Bruce said true?

If it was true, why didn't he agree to hand over the servant?
After all, the thinking mode is different.

A servant, still newly recruited, just garbage without human rights.

It's not like letting him go to die.

You just need to take it back for questioning, why don't you agree?

unless
Bruce has concerns!

So what is he worried about?

Santes, as one of the top executives in charge of Santa City, has the supreme power in Santa City. This kind of politician will not trust anyone by nature.

He was just afraid of Bruce's background and ability before, and it was reasonable for him to be a little unresponsive when he suddenly heard such a shocking event.

At this moment, politicians’ thinking mode has once again taken over the high ground.

Therefore, he had to doubt.

Why didn't anything happen for so many years, and Bruce just came to Santa City, and he learned of such a bizarre thing by such a coincidence?
Why is he so concerned about whether there are wizards in the Wizard Tower?

what he said,

How true is it?

How fake is it?

As many questions came to his mind, Santes began to calm down and think about how best to act.

It is not advisable to rashly inform other senior management of this matter.

But I don’t believe what Bruce said at all, and that’s not okay!
Santes, who returned to the wizard's tower, finally cleared his mind.

"Come here, release the raven for me, and let Highland City tell you all the news about Highlander as soon as possible. It must be done quickly."

"Also, let me go again and go to the port to find out where Bruce Yu came from, whose ship he took, who he talked to along the way, etc., all for me to find out."

"In addition, I will find out all the actions of Bruce after arriving in Santa City, including the big and small things that happened in the city, and send them back to the manor."

After issuing three consecutive orders, Santes was still a little uneasy.

He originally wanted to strengthen the guards and armed forces in the city, just in case.

However, this kind of matter involving military power is not something he can control at will.

It must go through a city-wide high-level meeting and get the consent of most people.

With his authority alone, it would be bad if he really wanted to make a fuss and cause panic among other high-level officials.

"Bruce, I hope you won't let me down." Santes muttered to himself looking at the gray sky.

North of Santa City.

A horse team came to a mountain ridge and stopped in front of a lonely building.

Not far ahead, on the high mountains, there are weird tree vines everywhere.

Thick black clouds seem to have always shrouded the mountains, so that it always gives people a cold and lonely atmosphere around them.

In particular, there is a deep crack, at least three meters wide, that appears below the mountain.

And the mouth of the gap in the black hole was filled with mist, and some strange sounds could be heard faintly.

Anyone who has seen this scene for the first time, there is no one who does not shiver.

"Hiss, for some reason, every time I come here, even in summer, I feel a chill in my heart."

"Yeah, obviously my hands and feet are not too cold, but I still feel a little flustered for no reason."

"Hun Dan, shut up! You don't want to die, we still want it!"

"How many times have you been warned, talk less and do more, don't you listen?
Half of the salary will be deducted this time, to see if you still remember the lesson. "

"Come on, boss, we didn't say anything, did we?"

"That's right, boss, you're deducting half of the salary, isn't it a waste of time for us?"

"If you want to do it, do it, if you don't do it, get out!"

"Listen to me, take care of your mouths and feet, otherwise, if something happens, don't worry about me not taking care of everyone!"

The steward of the team got very angry, and then quickly directed the rest of the people to remove the goods from the carriage.

In a place like Silent Hill, the consequences of saying the wrong thing are serious.

If it weren't for coming here to deliver the goods, the reward is several times that of other places, who would want to come here!
As for the two people whose money was deducted, I am afraid that no one is interested in paying attention to them except them.

It's nothing to do with yourself, it's not all the same wherever you are.

Not long after, a black thing quietly flew out from the back of the camp. It seemed to be holding something under it, and flew straight towards the gap in front of it.

After about 20 minutes, this thing came to an old castle.

No one could imagine that in such a dark and deep mountain, there would be a huge old castle standing on a high hill, as if overlooking everything below.

The castle was old in style, brightly lit, and there were faint and sad music sounds.

In a wide hall of the old castle, huge candles hung on the surrounding walls and pillars, making the shadows reflected in the hall invisible.

Right in front of the hall, stands a tall and huge seat.

A pale, withered arm with slender nails stretched out from the handle of the seat, just in time to catch the envelope that fell from the sky.

The owner of the hand, after slowly opening the envelope, did not make any other movements for a long time.

"Hey, I didn't expect someone to remember this."

"Sure enough, I am afraid that only among the former life-and-death enemies and temporary allies, there are people with weird thoughts who are so enthusiastic."

"Forget it, although I have been disappointed countless times, I still have to keep trying."

"Well, come here."

A figure quickly crawled to the ground.

"My lord, please give me your instructions."

"Send someone to Santa City, a little guy sent a message, saying that there is something that Earl Ben has been looking for."

"Go and see, if there is one, bring it back to me."

"If it's fake, then catch the guy who dared to lie to me and fertilize the vines."

"As you wish, my lord."

Bauhinia Manor.

Santes flipped through the message sent back by his servants.

Although he has watched it countless times, he still doesn't let go of any detail that he might have missed.

"A small captain of the city gate guard and a broker. It's strange. I don't see anything worthy of Bruce's attention?"

"Odd, very odd."

"Hiss, large-scale procurement and hoarding of supplies, most of which are food, this"

"Bruce went to buy a book first, and within two days, the whole family of the book seller died???"

"A setup, a coincidence, or something else?"

Santes tapped his fingers on the table, thoughts came to his mind one by one, but,
It has been impossible to connect these, or even confirm the conjectures that are there or not.

"Come on, give me a reminder, why hasn't the news of Hyland been reported yet?"

At this time, the butler replied: "Master Viscount, the raven we released may have to wait for a while to come back.

Just in case, I also sent someone to Highlander to inquire about the news. "

Santes waved his hand and said, "Well, if the raven comes back with a message, give it to me as quickly as possible!"

"Yes, Lord Viscount."

Until the night was about to fall, a raven flew towards the Bauhinia Manor.

"Damn!"

"Those nobles in Hyland are fools!"

"They, they lost Hyland so easily!!!"

"Come here, prepare a carriage for me. I want to rush to the Wizard Tower immediately!"

Soon, bells rang one after another in Santa City, three times in a row, each ringing louder than the other.

Many people turned their attention to the location of the wizard tower, and a doubt suddenly came to their minds.

What the hell happened to ring the bell for the wizard's tower?

And all the leaders of the nobles in the city put down their work almost at the same time, and began to take a carriage to the wizard's tower.

They panicked inexplicably.

According to the traditional regulations, when the bell of the wizard's tower rings, all senior officials of Santa City must go to the wizard's tower immediately.

Because, the ringing of the bell means that Santa City is in crisis and everyone needs to be called to a meeting!
