Inside the Roselle morial Exhibition hall, security personnel had completed an ergency evacuation.
In the study exhibit area, Rafter sat slumped on the ground, as if he had lost his soul, his eyes staring blankly ahead.
Horamick frowned and said, "The other party is very cautious and left no information behind."
He had just used relatively brute force thods to invade Rafter's spirit, but found no clues.
Because of this intrusion, Rafter's astral and spirit bodies suffered varying degrees of damage. For the next three to four days, he would appear dull, like a walking corpse, and it might take one or two weeks to fully recover.
Ikanser had no choice but to take out an ancient silver mirror with strange patterns from the special pouch at his waist. The mirror had "eyes" decorated with black gemstones on both sides.
Ikanser lightly brushed the mirror surface three tis: "Honorable Arrodes, my question is, who instructed Raft to disrupt the order of the venue and steal Roselle's Manuscript?"
The surrounding light beca deep, like paint seeping from an oil painting.
An extrely blurred picture appeared on the mirror. Ikanser looked at it carefully for a long ti before determining that it was a towering bronze gate.
Such a bronze gate had appeared just now in the study exhibit area.
The picture disappeared, and blood-red words appeared on the mirror: "According to the principle of reciprocity, it's my turn to ask a question. If you lie or can't answer, you will accept the task and punishnt I arrange."
Two or three seconds later, these sentences disappeared, and new words ford a question: "Do you like to solve problems with violence?"
Ikanser breathed a sigh of relief: "I don't like it."
The blood-red words disappeared, and Ikanser did not receive any punishnt.
Imdiately, Ikanser asked Horamick, "Your Excellency, does the bronze gate have any special significance?"
"It represents so abilities of the Death domain," Horamick said with his hands behind his back. "It also represents so sacrificial gates of the gods. As far as I know, the sacrificial gates of the Sailor pathway, the True Creator, and others are all bronze-colored."
Ikanser looked at the silver mirror in his hand: "This is the first ti the Arrodes Mirror has given such a vague answer."
"This shows that the person who stole the 'Manuscript' has a very high Sequence," Horamick said. "Change your question and try to find a breakthrough from Rafter."
"Yes." Ikanser smiled helplessly and picked up the Arrodes Mirror again: "Honorable Arrodes, when did Rafter decide to visit the Roselle morial Exhibition?"
The mirror rippled like water, revealing a picture: Rafter was scattering sweat on the gambling table. Suddenly, his movents beca a little stiff, and he began to look around. After a while, Rafter's expression changed obviously, and he stood up and said, "I'm not playing anymore. How can playing this be as interesting as going to see the Roselle morial Exhibition?"
(The Arrodes Mirror used text to indicate what Rafter said.)
The picture in the silver mirror ended, and everyone could see that Rafter's decision-making appearance was very wrong.
Blood-red words appeared on the mirror again: "It's my turn to ask a question. Have you ever wanted to hang up and ravage a colleague around you?"
Ikanser' face turned livid: "No."
A silver-white lightning bolt appeared out of thin air and struck Ikanser on the top of his head.
Zzzzz...
Ikanser' hair stood on end, and a little black smoke ca out of his body. If he hadn't held onto the wall in advance, he would have fallen to the ground.
The other team mbers thought of the previous question. Since the captain doesn't like to solve problems with violence, why would he hang up and ravage soone? Or is the "ravage" here not referring to beating?
Although everyone wanted to pretend they didn't see anything, they moved away from Ikanser as if they had a telepathic connection, still betraying their inner thoughts.
Ikanser took a few seconds to recover, and then spit out a puff of black smoke: "Your Excellency, Arrodes doesn't even know who influenced Rafter."
As for the tricky questions in the mirror just now, and the consequences of answering the questions, Ikanser was already used to it.
Horamick still had his hands behind his back: "Find that casino as soon as possible and see if you can find any clues."
This demigod couldn't help frowning. He rarely encountered such an event with no clues. Not only did the Arrodes Mirror not provide clues, but he also didn't find any clues with his own abilities.
The similar cases he had encountered before were all related to true gods. Could it be...
Impossible! Horamick imdiately denied his idea. The power of the black shadow in the study exhibit area was very weak, and it had nothing to do with gods, but those two bronze gates...
Just as he was thinking about this, a security guard ran over quickly: "Your Excellency, the King's carriage has arrived. Viscount Stratford wants to see you."
Horamick was stunned. Why is the King here? Is he also here to see the exhibition? Even if he wants to show that he is close to the people, there is no need to show it like this.
Before Horamick could say anything, Stratford entered with a loud laugh: "Archbishop Horamick! I am relieved to have you here. You will definitely be able to find the culprit who caused the chaos."
Viscount Stratford was the captain of the Royal Guards. He walked closer and gave a noble salute, and then said: "The King asked to ask, who caused the chaos? Do you need help?"
Horamick smiled and said, "We are investigating."
Then he seed to think of sothing: "Is the King coming to visit the Roselle morial Exhibition?"
"Of course not!" Viscount Stratford said: "No leader is more enlightened than King George, and Roselle is no exception."
"Yes, yes." Horamick said casually: "Then, why did the King suddenly appear here today?"
"The King suddenly recalled that he had passed by here a long ti ago, and today he suddenly wanted to pass by this street to take a look."
Horamick smiled and said, "I see."
After sending away Viscount Stratford, Horamick imdiately said to Ikanser: "The chaos just now was probably caused by a high-Sequence Beyonder from the Loen or Feynapotter royal family!"
He paused and then said: "The possibility of the Feynapotter royal family is higher. After all, George III was the one who was attracted here."
Ikanser imdiately understood the basis for Horamick's judgnt: the Law of Beyonder Characteristic Convergence!
Since the King, who was born into the "Arbiter" family, was attracted here, it must be that other High-Sequence mbers of that pathway are committing the cri.
The other mbers of the team did not understand why His Excellency the Archbishop made such a firm judgnt because they did not have the relevant knowledge.
Ikanser glanced at Rafter: "What should we do with him?"
"He is just a pawn," Horamick said: "Send soone to monitor him for two weeks. If no abnormalities are found, withdraw the surveillance personnel."
As he spoke, he was already considering how to investigate the Feynapotter royal family, after all, this was the only clue to the robbery.
Hehe, let's complain about this Archbishop: this result is worse than "no result".
