Chapter 924
924 Poison kill
Late at night, in a room in the Ceylon Empire’s consulate in Coland, the lights were still on, and the atmosphere was heavy.
The summoners in the consulate and the Ceylon Empire’s Consul General in Koland were all in the room. All of them looked gloomy.
Baron Maya was lying on the bed. His body was stiff and his face was pale. His pants were stained with blood and he was not breathing at all. He was dead and in a horrible way.
The floor and walls of the room were covered with broken pieces of vases and furniture. There were a few big, dark holes in the hard wall. It was as if the room had been bombed. The bed was even worse. Half of the mattress was burnt black, with obvious burn marks.
The few Summoners in the consulate all looked exhausted. After all, when Baron Maya went berserk, he had already injured a few people in the consulate. They had to step in to stop him. If they did not stop him, a berserk Summoner could tear down the consulate.
before Baron Meyer died, he was hallucinating and mentally deranged. He said that someone was after him, so we could only trap him with the water shield temporarily, ” a Summoner from the consulate said as he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. the water shield is harmless and won’t kill him. Before he died, he clutched his neck and seemed to have difficulty breathing. He also had blood in his stool and his heart stopped beating after a few minutes.
you’ve done your best. Baron Maya’s death has nothing to do with you! The Consul General tridani said calmly to the sharp Baron Meyer. Tridani the Consul General looked a bit elder. At over 50 years old, he was wearing a pair of thick glasses. With well-combed grey hair and a mustache above his lips, he was slightly fat and looked gentle. He was also a noble of Ceylon Empire with the rank of Viscount. At this moment, he had not even taken off his ceremonial dress for the banquet.
After the reception, the Consul General and the special envoy of the Bullard Business Alliance left Fort kant by carriage. They had a private meeting in the carriage for an hour and only returned to the consulate now. When the Consul General returned, he saw the body of Baron Maya.
A few Summoners in the consulate were trembling in fear as they faced the Consul General, tridani. They had just used some spells to stop Baron Maya from going berserk. If the Consul General were to blame them for Baron Maya’s death, the consequences would be very serious. Baron Maya was a noble, while they were civilians. The crime of murdering a noble was a very serious accusation in the Ceylon Empire. Once they were involved, they would be finished. Furthermore, Baron Maya had a large family behind him. They couldn’t afford to offend him.
After hearing the words of the Consul General, tredani, the summoners finally let out a sigh of relief.
“How did Baron Maya die?” The Consul General tredani stood by the bed, his eyes looking over Baron Maya’s body inch by inch, ” even if he lost in the banquet, it shouldn’t be to the extent of death!
yes, the fight at the banquet was an indirect fight between Summoners. Baron Meyer may have been mentally injured, but it wasn’t enough to kill him, ” an experienced Summoner said. Baron Meyer had severe bleeding in his stool before he died. He also had hallucinations, mental confusion, breathing difficulties, and heart failure. These symptoms are similar to body poisoning. I suspect that he may have been poisoned by a deadly poison or a terrible Voodoo!
“Poison, Voodoo!” The Consul General tredani frowned, ” can you confirm how he died? ”
we’ve just tested it, but we can’t be sure. If it’s poison, it’s not one of the poisons we know. If it’s a terrible Voodoo, Baron Meyer is a Summoner. If he’s poisoned, he should know it immediately and have a violent reaction. So, it’s hard for us to be sure, ” another Summoner said with a serious face.
The Consul General tredani stared at the body of Baron Maya. He frowned and was silent for a moment. if he was poisoned, is it possible that Baron Maya was poisoned during the banquet? ”
“It’s possible. After all, there are many people at the party.”
A cold glint flashed in the eyes of the Consul General, tredani, and he suddenly asked, ” is it possible that Xia Pingan poisoned it? ”
The summoners from the embassies looked at each other, thought about it, and then shook their heads.
Baron Meyer didn’t know Xia Pingan at all before this, and they have never been in contact. Xia Pingan has no motive or opportunity to poison him! A Summoner said.
and … a Summoner next to her added, ” when Baron Meyer challenged Xia Pingan tonight, he was more than 15 meters away from Xia Pingan. There were people around him. Until Baron Meyer vomited blood and left, he did not have any close contact with Xia Pingan. I was right next to Baron Meyer at that time and did not feel anything unusual. It was impossible for Xia Pingan to complete Baron Meyer’s poisoning!
The summoner was telling the truth. Although he used the word ” challenge “, it was actually a provocation. Before Baron Meyer started the fight, the two of them had not interacted much. Xia ping ‘an had neither the motive nor the opportunity to poison him. After the provocation, Xia ping’ an had no actual contact with Baron Meyer because he was too far away. Therefore, it was impossible for Xia ping ‘an to poison him. There were many powerful Summoners present at the time. If anyone dared to use Voodoo on that occasion, they would have been killed by the poison. It was impossible for him to not be noticed, and it was even more impossible for Baron Maya to not have any reaction.
There was nothing wrong with the judgment of the summoner from the Ceylon Empire’s Embassy. However, no matter how hard they thought about it, they could not have known that Xia Pingan had already poisoned Baron Meyer before he started to stir up trouble and when the first dance of the banquet had begun. Baron Meyer’s fate was already sealed. Everything could only be said to be a freak combination of factors.
Garfield, I’ll leave Baron Meyer’s body to you. Baron Meyer died on duty this time. After you clean up the body, go back to the Ceylon Empire and hand it over to his family. If his family asks about the cause of his death and how he died, you have to tell them the truth!
“Yes!” A Summoner who had just spoken nodded and said. He hesitated for a moment and then asked, ” my Lord, will Baron Maya’s family deal with the bet between Baron Maya and Xia Pingan as well? ”
Baron Maya’s challenge to Xia Pingan tonight is not for personal reasons, but for the sake of his status. Baron Maya is defending the dignity and status of a Summoner from the Ceylon Empire. On such an occasion, a Summoner from the Ceylon Empire can not be completely suppressed by a newly-promoted God’s chosen one like redron. The bet will be paid by the consulate! The Consul General tridani said icily. When he said this, he had already thought it through. The Boulade Business Alliance would be responsible for the wager. Such a bit of money and those realm beads were nothing but sh * t for them.
No one dared to renege on a debt because it happened on such an occasion. If the Ceylon Empire reneged on a debt because of this, their reputation in the Brandi province would go bankrupt, and they would become a laughingstock. Therefore, such a thing was absolutely not allowed to happen.
As for what the family would do after receiving the body of Baron Maya, as long as it was not through diplomatic channels, it had nothing to do with the Admiral.
……
While the Ceylon Empire’s consulate in Koland was dealing with Baron Maya’s corpse, Xia Pingan, who was in Fort condera, had already gone to sleep patiently.
Although he had a pile of realm beads waiting to fuse, Fort condera was not the place to fuse the realm beads. Xia Pingan could only wait until he returned home the next day.
In the middle of the night, the wall next to the fireplace in Xia Pingan’s bedroom suddenly slid open silently, revealing a passage. Helena, who was wearing a long dress and had perfume sprayed on her face, slowly walked in under the hazy moonlight. This was the ” surprise ” she had prepared for Xia Pingan.
Xia Pingan was still lying on the bed, not moving.
Helena bit her lips. This guy was still pretending to be asleep at this time. Helena did not believe that Xia Pingan did not know that she had already entered his room. She knew that the senses of God’s chosen ones were extremely sharp. It was impossible that he did not know that a stranger had entered his room.
“Does this guy want me to climb onto his bed?” Detestable!
Just as Helena was looking at Xia Pingan, who was lying on the bed, with a little anger, she saw Xia Pingan turn over. He did not even get up from the bed. Instead, he moved his finger, and a light spot that looked like a bug flew out of his finger and entered Helena’s body.
In the blink of an eye, Helena felt an endless wave of sleepiness wash over her. Then, she heard Xia Pingan’s lazy and hazy voice in her ear. Madam, don’t stay up late. You age easily. Good night and good dreams!
After hearing those words, Helena felt as if she were sleepwalking. Her sleepiness grew so heavy that she couldn’t even open her eyes. It was as if she had been hypnotized, and she returned from the secret passage all the way back to her bedroom. She lay down on her bed, and endless sleepiness washed over her. She immediately fell into an extremely sweet dream.
……
It had been a long time since Helena had had such a good night’s sleep. When she woke up the next morning, she found that the sun was already shining on her bed. She felt warm and comfortable, just like the seaweed floating in the water under the sun.
Helena was shocked, and she hurriedly got out of bed. Only then did she realize that it was already late. It was almost noon. She asked her personal maid, and found out that her personal maid thought that she was too tired last night, so she didn’t disturb her.
When he asked again, he found out that Xia Pingan and Mrs. Caitlyn had already left the castle after having breakfast this morning.
that b * stard! Helena cursed in embarrassment. She had already been rejected, and yet he had still rejected her. After cursing him, she thought about it for a moment, and couldn’t help but laugh. She wasn’t angry at all. He was a special man, and it was because of this that she had a good eye for people and was worthy of his love.
