Eighth Crown

On the same day, in order to prevent the possibility of being targeted, Borus moved directly, including his family, together with Lucia, Will, Esdes and others, and temporarily lived in the palace.

This time, let alone a night attack, even Liu Xia couldn't find a chance to assassinate him.

No, there is a chance. As long as he pretends to be a necromancer to assassinate, he will most likely be able to kill Boros, even Hei Tong, Will and others, but such a move will surely alarm Esther Sis, if the two ceremonies and the necromancer did not appear at the same time, his identity would inevitably be suspected, and his undercover inside the empire could almost end.

It is not worth it to kill only one or two emperors who have nothing to do with the overall situation. Even if it is to be exposed, it must be when a decisive victory is achieved.

"Die! Die! All villains are unforgivable!"

In the afternoon, when he was going to exterminate the bandits, Sai Liu took the lead and rushed into the bandit village with Xiao Ke, who had turned into a giant with a hundred arms. As long as he saw the bandits with weapons, he would kill all the bandits without letting go.

"The ruling of the ten kings, justice Qin Guangqiu!"

"Judgment of the Ten Kings, Justice Yan Demon Spear!"

After Dr.'s fashion transformation, Seleu's body was stuffed with various weapons, which were collectively referred to as the "Judgment of the Ten Kings".

The so-called justice Qin Guangqiu refers to a heavy blow with a huge iron ball, which is enough to smash people into minced meat, while the justice Yan Mo gun is a giant diamond drill that can easily penetrate steel.

There are other weapons such as the 'Chujiang Flying Body' and the 'Song Emperor Sword of Justice', which correspond to the Ten Temples Yama, and if all of them are sent, even the emperor may be killed by her single-handedly.

"It's getting more and more twisted."

While fighting against the bandits with the other team members, Ryuxia was also secretly paying attention to Saiyu's state.

Because of the death of her parents and mentor, Seleu's mental state was already a little weird. After the death of Dr. Fashion, her mental distortion had reached the point where almost everyone could see it.

"Seleu, black pupils, and even Esdes, the Tegu envoys are really weird guys."

Liu Xia manipulated the Yueling marrow liquid, forming a defensive iron wall around him, while forming several silver blades, and indifferently divided the surrounding bandits who were trying to attack him.

Of course, he didn't think he was so normal.

Under the circumstance of the emperor's envoys, even if these bandits got the firearms from nowhere, they were all destroyed in just a few minutes, and the entire cottage was covered in flames.

At night, the bright moon hangs high.

In the palace, Liu Xia took advantage of the night to come to the door of Sai Liu's room and knocked on the door.

"Please come in."

Seleu's dull voice came from the room.

Lucia opened the door and walked in.

The lights were still on in the room. Sai Liu was sitting beside the bed and was using a rag to wipe the weapon that was used in the extermination of the bandits today. It was stained with a lot of blood. usage of.

Originally, it was supposed to be done by Dr. Fashion, but after him, Seleu could only maintain the weapons himself.

"How is the state of the weapon?"

Liu Xia closed the door, sat on a chair, and asked Sai Liu, "Fashion is gone, will it affect your use of weapons?"

"No, the maintenance method of weapons, Dr. Fashion has already told me."

Seleu lowered his head and clenched his hand holding the rag slightly, "If it's just maintenance, I can do it myself... But, Captain, why are there so many villains in this world? Why are good people always To die at the hands of the wicked?"

Under the light, her face looked very dim and confused.

"It's not the captain, it's the deputy captain."

Liu Xia paused for a while, then continued: "Just right, I also have something I want you to take a look at. We will ask the captain for a leave tomorrow morning, and then go out."

"Something to look at?" Sai Liu was slightly taken aback.

"You'll know when the time comes, just free up tomorrow morning."

Liu Xia did not reveal the answer immediately, but just repeated her request, and then turned and left Sai Liu's room.

…………

The next morning, after the two asked Esdes for leave, they easily obtained permission, left the palace, and came to the streets of the imperial capital.

"Deputy Captain, where are we going?"

Sai Liu looked at the pedestrians who were constantly flowing left and right, and asked Liu Xia suspiciously.

"The group of bandits we killed yesterday, I thought it was very strange when I saw it."

Liu Xia did not directly answer Sai Liu's question, but instead said: "In this world, although firearms are not very precious, they are not cheap, even the members of the Imperial City Guards cannot be equipped with one. As a result, nearly half of the thieves have handguns."

"Moreover, the base of this group of bandits is actually so close to the imperial capital. It's very strange to think about it. Do ordinary bandits dare to rob near the imperial capital?"

"So, I did a little research and learned the truth from the gang of thieves. They really have the support of high-ranking officials of the empire behind them."

Liu Xia took Sai Liu into the slums of the imperial capital. The life of the people here is obviously not comparable to that of the rich streets before. Although it is not lacking in vitality, no matter it is from the clothes, fabrics, building materials, or the skin color and dress of pedestrians. There is a clear gap between the rich and the poor.

"However, of course, I will investigate the high-ranking officials who support the bandit, but this is not what I intend to show you today."

The two stopped in the depths of the slum, in front of an unusually dilapidated house. The roof of the house was broken with several holes, not even a window, and the door panels were shaking with the wind, making a 'bang, bang, bang' sound. .

"You are……"

There was a dark-skinned, scrawny boy in the room who looked extremely malnourished. He was only about seven or eight years old. He was wearing only a pair of dusty gray trousers. When he saw the two coming, his face showed Confused look.

"Little brother, do you know this wooden plaque?"

Liu Xia stepped forward and handed over a wooden plaque with a carved name. At the same time, the sapphire ring on his hand flickered slightly in front of his eyes, and a fleeting luster flashed in front of him.

The boy's eyes were slightly lost, and then he recovered. He patted his head, feeling that the memory in his head seemed to be a little confused.

"Ah, yes, this is what my father carved for me, but it's strange. Dad didn't come back yesterday. Even if Dad went out to work, he would definitely come back at the latest at night..."

The boy took the wooden sign with a slightly unnatural worried look on his face.

Liu Xia withdrew her hand, inserted the hand with the sapphire ring into her trouser pocket, and looked at Seleu.
