Chapter 1715

The restaurant fell into dead silence. It was Sir Eddie who broke the silence first.

"Ghost? There are ghosts in the manor?"

Sir Eddie laughed dumbly, as if he had heard something funny.

"Deputy Legion Commander... Sir, do you think I would hide ghosts in the manor?"

"That's right."

Su Xiao threw down the tableware in his hand. Coming to Eden Manor was a very risky behavior, but there was a big fish here. Su Xiao even suspected that Sin might be hiding here to recuperate.

"Hahaha, my Joshua family has experienced many changes with the Empire. Deputy Legion Commander, you know, how much capital have my ancestors, grandfather, and father donated to the Empire? That is a number you cannot imagine. I cannot step the efforts of so many generations of the Joshua family into the sewer. To put it another way, even if I really have ghosts here, at least I need the consent of the councilors before you can search here."

Sir Eddie threw the tableware onto the dining table with a bang and signaled the servants to take his offspring away.

"Is that so? Then I'll put it another way. On which floor of the castle is Moon Eclipse? That is a female ghost, likes to forage at night, an important member of the Ghost Ring organization, the proposer of the Eye Chamber plan, or rather, do you have an Eye Chamber here?"

Although Su Xiao didn't know the function of the Eye Chamber yet, he had seen it once with his own eyes. That thing was extremely difficult to destroy after it was successfully set up. At least he had no good way. Physical destruction was not very possible. Once there was an intention to destroy it, those eyeballs would disappear, and the entire Eye Chamber would move to who knows where.

"Deputy Legion Commander, you are a professional in the field of ghosts, but I don't understand your words at all, so stop this meaningless dispute. Even if I am really guilty, it must be adjudicated by the Empire. Moreover, I am innocent, so... you... have no right."

Sir Eddie stood up and turned hostile with Su Xiao, this Legion Commander. He didn't regret it, because he had to do so. He knew what kind of department the Execution Agency was. It was terrifying, true, but it was also the Empire's power organization. As long as it belonged to the Empire, he didn't worry about what Su Xiao could do to him.

"Stop this meaningless dispute...," Su Xiao was silent for a moment, seemingly agreeing with Sir Eddie's statement, and continued: "Fine, Sir Eddie."

As soon as his words fell, he pulled out D·Assassination from his waist.

Pfft, pfft.

One shot to the skull, one shot to the heart. Sir Eddie's mouth opened wide, and he fell straight backward.

Su Xiao had already smelled the fishy stench of ghosts when he entered the castle before. Even if it was very faint, he still smelled it.

Just as Sir Eddie fell, Hank and Gus both widened their eyes. Gus even coughed, and a noodle sprayed out of his nostril. The two looked at Su Xiao in disbelief. They didn't expect their superior to be so fierce. That was Sir Eddie! He slaughtered him just like that? Just like this?

Reinhardt grabbed a table knife, and an electric arc flashed on the table knife.

Swoosh~

The table knife shot out, directly piercing the skull of an old man, preventing him from roaring. Lightning surged on the old man, instantly electrocuting him until he was charred, and a burnt smell permeated the air.

Just at this moment, Su Xiao received a prompt.

【You have killed Sir Eddie (Half-breed · Human/Ghost).】

【Sir Eddie is a half-breed · Human/Ghost. Because the ghost bloodline is thin, Sir Eddie's combat power is equivalent to a one-eyed ghost. Because of his special status (Pioneer, Ghost Ring organization fund provider, one of the founders of the Ghost Ring forces), you have obtained 3.1% of the World's Source.】

【Killing the Pioneer, Promotion Mission (First Ring) mission completion +10%.】

Seeing the prompt from Reincarnation Paradise, Su Xiao was somewhat surprised. He had actually killed a big fish with two shots! No, it was a super big fish. And from the prompt, his previous deduction was wrong. It seemed there were indeed Pioneers. The half-breed of ghost and human might be the Pioneer, and the aura of the half-breed was exactly the same as a human.

Su Xiao just came to catch a female ghost named Moon Eclipse, but the real big fish was slaughtered by him along the way. This was like going to buy a lottery ticket, the lottery ticket bought didn't win, but the lottery ticket picked up along the way won millions.

"The master is dead!!"

After a roar.

Bang!

Gunshots came from outside the room. A hole the size of a fist exploded on the wooden door. It was the manor's gunmen.

"My lord, what should we do?"

Hank already knew that the 10,000 Gold Le was not easy to earn, but since he was already on the pirate ship, he had to fight for his life.

"Kill all the gunmen, no need to pay attention to the servants. Arrest all the people of the Joshua family. Kill anyone who resists."

"Understood."

Gus took out a short stick from his bosom. With a click, the short stick popped open, about a meter long. One could see circles of round blades on it. With one strike of this thing, it would definitely smash off a large piece of flesh and blood.

Screams and roars soon came from outside the room.

Su Xiao picked up the tableware on the table and began to eat a lemon-grilled fish in a leisurely manner. He was indeed very hungry, after all, he had just recovered from a serious injury.

"If you think invisibility can get you close to me, I advise you to give up."

Su Xiao chewed the food in his mouth and spoke vaguely.

"Mr. Kuku Lin, hello, I am Joshua Albert."

A man about thirty years old appeared. It was Sir Eddie's second son. He had been at the dining table before.

"Preparing to avenge your father?"

Su Xiao looked at Joshua Albert. The other party inherited Sir Eddie's handsomeness, but didn't have that kind of ruthlessness.

"No, my father pushed the Joshua family into the abyss step by step. When he killed my mother with his own hands, he might have already gone crazy. I want to make a deal with you. Let me leave, and the wealth of the Joshua family will belong to you."

"Oh?"

Su Xiao looked at Joshua Albert with great interest. He used the Apostle's Eye to investigate the other party's information. This was a half-breed with a very thin bloodline, and he was not a Ghost Ring member. His combat power was not even as good as an ordinary ghost.

Joshua Albert placed a gold-inlaid iron box on the dining table. The Boundary Line wrapped around the iron box. After wrapping a crystal layer on his hand, Su Xiao opened the iron box.

Real estate certificates, bank deposit slips, etc., all added together, were worth at least 94 million Gold Le. This was a huge sum of money that would make everyone jealous, but as long as one had a brain, one wouldn't be interested in this money.

"If you were one-tenth as smart as your father, you shouldn't have handed this thing to me. Hank."

"My lord, I am here."

Hank shouted at the restaurant entrance, still carrying a corpse in his hand.

"This is a person of the Joshua family, arrest him."

"You!"

Joshua Albert retreated several steps, his eyes full of disbelief. It wasn't that he didn't want to escape before, but he couldn't escape at all. As the second son of the Joshua family, he knew what kind of organization the Execution Agency was. The chance of escaping from the castle was too slim.

"Heh, a child spoiled by his father."

Hank witnessed everything that happened in the room. He rushed to Joshua Albert in a few steps. Joshua Albert just wanted to fight to the death, but he suddenly noticed that Su Xiao was lightly tapping the plate with the table knife in his hand, so he didn't resist. Hank, this clever old man, also only symbolically tied his hands.

Joshua Albert was still considered smart. He didn't have to die, but he couldn't be free either. Let Su Xiao just let the other party leave like this? That was simply ridiculous. He couldn't explain it to Monarch Harold.

Half an hour later, the castle fell into dead silence. Flames spread on the first floor, gradually swallowing this castle that had existed for hundreds of years.

Parliament Palace, fourth floor, still in that study.

Monarch Harold leaned behind the desk. The crow's feet at the corners of his eyes had clearly deepened in the past few days. His face, which was originally in his forties, began to lean toward fifty.

"Speak, what is the matter this time."

Harold rubbed his forehead and sighed. To tell the truth, he had a headache even when he saw Su Xiao in recent days, exhausted both physically and mentally.

"I slaughtered Joshua Eddie."

"..."

As the Monarch, Harold was clearly stunned for a moment. Very few things could make him show such obvious emotional fluctuations.

"When did this happen."

"Half an hour ago. This is his property."

Su Xiao took out those real estate certificates, bank deposit slips, etc., and added a sentence: "The total value is around 94 million Gold Le."

"Reason."

"He is a half-breed of ghost and human. The corpse is sealed at the Execution Agency headquarters."

Harold looked at those real estate certificates and bank deposit slips and was silent. This amount of Gold Le, even he could not ignore.

"I will handle the councilors. As for the matter that Joshua Eddie is a half-breed of ghost and human, keep it secret for now. Kuku Lin, how is your acting talent?"

Harold smiled. Joshua Eddie was someone he had always wanted to kill but could not personally order to kill.

PS: Happy New Year! (Roar) Yes, paying a New Year's call must have momentum.
