Chapter 500: Scheming
In the mansion, Graal was furious. If it were any one of them, there would be no peace of mind at this moment. A guard in his own mansion blatantly used the Boiling Blood Magic Crystal in public. Doesn't this tell others that he hides prohibited materials in Viscount Graal's mansion?
Thinking of the words Oban said meaningfully to himself in the study earlier. Graal was not only angry, but frightened.
Aubain said: "Gral, I suppressed this matter for you. But although the matter can be suppressed, it cannot suppress the thoughts of outsiders. I believe in you, and I believe that you will not hide military funds privately, but I don't know whether others believe me or not. With me, I can still protect you. But in case someone from above checks it out, even I can only stand by and watch, so you should know better than me how to deal with it. "
These words are too scary. The Boiling Blood Demon Crystal cannot be seen in the light, at least it cannot be used so ostentatiously in public. According to the constitution of the empire, if this matter gets involved, the higher-ups will send someone to investigate it. As long as Graal cannot produce the official channel authorization letter of Magic Crystal, he will have to go to the gentlemen of the Ministry of Justice of the Empire. As a result, even if he will not be convicted, he will have to bleed a lot.
That loss cannot be made up for by a mere thousand magic crystals.
It's just that the magic crystal hidden in the cellar was taken by the guards, and it was used foolishly in the market. As long as it is a normal person, it knows that it is not allowed to touch it, and if it is absolutely impossible, who would use a thing like the boiling blood magic crystal, which has obvious defects and advantages?
"My lord, I have already checked. Beffin stayed in the bar for a long time last night, then went to the casino, and I heard that he left in the morning. Not long after that, he did that kind of thing at the market. The subordinates think , There is something strange about it." The captain of the guard of the mansion carefully organized his words, now Graal is like a powder magazine that could explode at any time, he doesn't want to be accidentally injured.
"What do you mean? Someone is planning to frame me?" Graal was not stupid, and he could hear the meaning of the captain's words. He frowned: "No, who knows me..."
His face changed suddenly, don't go out of the hall. The captain followed closely behind, but Graal turned around and said, "You stay here!"
Came to the passage of the cellar alone, Guerra's heart was pounding. The boiling blood magic crystal is hidden in the cellar, and now someone has set it up to blame. If the two are connected, the answer is ready to come out: this secret vault has been exposed!
Graal's hands trembled when he saw the chain on the ground, and the stench that had gushed out of the vault. Pushing open the door hard, holding up the torch to see, Graal almost fainted. The evil beast he had raised had its head cut off, and it was already rotten and smelly. Not far away, a box containing the Boiling Blood Magic Crystal was opened.
Looking at other places, it is also a mess. It seems that this place has not only been visited by people, but also searched a lot.
Graal held back his dizziness, first called the captain of the guard and scolded him, and then ordered people to go down to clean up the animal carcasses. After the air in the vault was no longer so disgusting, Graal checked it himself and found that three Boiling Blood Demon Crystals were indeed missing. Even more frightening, a box of his savings coupons and secret letters disappeared. In that box, there are about 2 million gold savings certificates, which are funds that he will only use when he plans to use them urgently. That's all, but those few secret letters can't be lost. Otherwise, once it is exposed, Oban will not be polite to him, because it is important evidence that Oban's secrets were betrayed to the other two dukes.
How could Graal have such a vault if he hadn't sold Aubin's secrets.
It's just that the gold coupon and the secret letter have disappeared together, and Graal has no way of judging that the other party is for money, and the letter was just taken away unintentionally. Or it was for the letter at all. Afterwards, he found that two gemstone necklaces were missing. The two necklaces are worth about 100,000 yuan each, which is not a small fortune. From this point of view, the other party should still be doing it for money, otherwise they wouldn't do anything unnecessary.
It's just that Graal couldn't explain how the lost blood-boiling crystal got on his guard, and that damned guard had to use the boiling-blood crystal in public, so there were too many ambiguities. However, after using the magic crystal, the guard also died due to the side effects of the magic crystal. Even if Graal wanted to get him out, he couldn't figure it out.
He can only sigh himself.
Now that this treasury has been exposed, especially the existence of the Boiling Blood Demon Crystal is more like a hot potato. Losing it is not, not losing it is even more wrong. After thinking about it, Graal could only move the contents here as soon as possible, so as not to cause more trouble.
While Graal was dizzy with work, Alan and Ruola were enjoying a leisurely afternoon tea time in the restaurant of the small building.
After Allen came back yesterday, he did the counting and found that Ruo Lasai had given him more than one million gold savings coupons. This is not a small amount of money. If the money is used well, it can be exchanged for the excellent equipment of a thousand-man army. Of course, it is still a little bit of a stretch to achieve the luxurious configuration of Shen Hailin Ji, and not everyone is as rich as Oban, and millions of military expenditures are spent every year on the direct line of troops without even raising an eyebrow.
Allen was naturally happy to get this reward. However, apart from being happy, he felt puzzled, and the puzzled one was that Ruola's hand was too generous. In the box he got from Graal, there were at most two million gold savings certificates, Ruola threw him two-thirds of it at once, and then left in a hurry. It doesn't feel like she said before, purely for making money and looking for excitement.
Moreover, Ruola knew the inside of the mansion like the back of his hand, and she even knew where the Glarna vault was in advance. That being the case, she was able to do the action last night alone, why did she drag herself on for nothing and pay so much afterwards. It looked as if he was pulling himself to cover her. This reminded Allen of the evil beast, which was cut by him with a flash of fire. Anyone who has studied him carefully can see the clues from the corpse of the beast.
If Ruola planned to use herself as a cover from the beginning, it means that she did not go for Graal's money, but had a deeper purpose. As for Allen, it is natural to let him break down other people's eyes, at least so that Graal will not guess Ruola's body.
If this is the case, then this woman is not so simple.
Allen didn't like being used as a gun, especially when a woman used him immediately after winning him a little favor, this feeling was very bad. Of course, Alan would not act rashly before there was sufficient evidence that Ruola used him.
Seeing Ruola talking eloquently in front of his eyes, Alan had a strange thought: this might be an interesting game.
"That's it. I asked the unlucky guard to win all the money, and then told him that as long as he crushed the spar on the spot, the money would be returned to him. And it would be doubled, so the next thing It's a matter of course." Ruola spread her hands and said, "What do you think?"
"Very good. In this way, Graal won't be able to wash it off even if he jumps into the water. Anyone will associate the Boiling Blood Demon Crystal with him."
"This is the effect I want." Ruo La showed a smug smile on her face.
"But Miss Ruola, the guard probably didn't know that the thing in his hand was the Boiling Blood Magic Crystal?" Allen asked coldly.
Ruola was taken aback, and said, "Of course I can't let him know, otherwise my plan won't work."
"So he won't know that with his source power, which is not even tenth level, he will die after using the magic crystal, right? He won't even know that your promise is just a blank sheet of paper?"
Ruola's face fell down: "If I heard correctly, are you accusing me? Baron Allen, are you going to put yourself on a moral level to accuse me? Yes, that's right. I sacrificed a fifth A super guard, but so what? Working for Graal, he will die sooner or later!"
As soon as the words came out of her mouth, Ruola seemed to realize that she had said something wrong, and a strange expression flashed across her face. Allen saw it, shrugged and said, "I'm sorry, I probably don't regard Viscount Graal as an enemy, so I think these methods are disdainful. But if you put him in a hostile position, believe me, as long as you can hit the opponent, even Even if the means are despicable, I am willing to use them."
Ruola's face softened, and she joked, "You're calling me despicable in a roundabout way."
"No, it's just the wisdom of a commander."
Both of them laughed, but Alan was having dark thoughts in his heart. He made an assumption just now, assuming that Graal is Ruola's enemy. But Ruola did not object to this statement, and looking at her natural appearance, she subconsciously regarded Graal as an enemy. This is strange, Graal is a vassal of Oban, why does the count's sister treat him as an enemy?
It seems that Oban's circle of influence may not necessarily be peaceful. Allen thought.
"Believe me, after all these things, Uncle Graal must be in a hurry to move the contents of his vault. In the mansion, we can't move those belongings. But if it's outside, you can imagine it this way. Uncle Graal He was eager to transport his things away, but he encountered robbers on the way. Even better, his things cannot be seen, so if he lost them, he didn’t dare to make a big announcement, so he could only suffer from being dumb.” Speaking of Here, Ruola's eyes sparkled with excitement: "How about it, Sir Allen, cooperate with me again?"
"Yes, but I can only dispatch three masters including me." Allen said indifferently.
"Okay, my people will take care of the trivial matters. After the matter is completed, you will be four and six. Of course, these things must be handed over to me first, and let me turn them into legitimate funds before handing them over to you."
"Miss Ruola already has a detailed plan, of course I'd rather be respectful than obedient." Allen laughed, he had an idea. This second robbery will be a good time to find out Ruola's secret.
