Baron Duwei signed an IOU in a humiliating way.
The total amount was as high as two million gold coins.
"My Lord … This amount is a bit wrong …"
After Baron Duwei finished signing, he wiped off his cold sweat and cautiously said: "I remember that it should only be 1.5 million …"
"Hmm?"
Tang En said without hesitation: "You are wrong."
"Uh … Okay …"
In his heart, Duwei once again cursed his math teacher who had died early.
Tang En put away the IOU: "Take me to the treasury."
"Ah!?"
Baron Duwei really wanted to cry: "Didn't we agree to collect the debt from the family?"
"This is the interest."
Tang En looked at Baron Duwei with a blank expression: "Do you think the matter will be solved so easily if I make a move?"
Baron Duwei of course didn't dare to say anything. He had to obediently take Tang En to the treasury of the Lord's mansion.
"Wow! Gold coins! So many gold coins! "
Elijah's eyes lit up. This was the first time the little girl saw so many gold coins. The huge impact even made her doubt her eyes.
"My Lord, there are about 300,000 gold coins here, that …"
Baron Duwei rubbed his hands: "How much interest do you want?"
"Of course, all of it."
"Ah?"
"I said, all of it."
Tang En sneered: "These gold coins are useless to you. They are all mine."
After Tang En finished speaking, he waved his hand and lifted the boxes into his backpack.
"Space, space equipment!"
Baron Duwei's eyes widened in shock. His heart was full of disbelief.
Even the Cadier family doesn't have many space equipment. A mere Ellington country bumpkin lord actually has a space equipment!?
Who would believe such a thing!?
What's more terrifying is the capacity of this space equipment – Oh my God! Ten boxes have already been stuffed inside and it still isn't full!
"My Lord! You can't do this! Leave some for me! "
Duwei panicked. Watching the gold coins disappear, he felt like his flesh was being cut off.
"It's not up to you to tell me what to do."
Tang En sneered as he emptied the treasury. Actually, he didn't care about how many gold coins he had obtained. What made him happy was that there were still a few boxes of Magic Crystals in the treasury. Of course, he would gladly accept them.
Looking at the empty vault, Baron Duwei seemed to have aged a dozen years in an instant.
Gone, all gone!
The gold coins he had painstakingly collected and those expensive Magic Crystals ….. God, if he couldn't deliver these Magic Crystals on time, that person would definitely kill him!
After ransacking the vault, Tang En once again looked at Baron Duwei with a very indifferent expression.
"Now that we've settled our accounts, you can scram."
Tang En kicked Duwei away. He really wanted to kill Baron Duwei, but Castle Kasparmi was different from Ellington. The movement here would attract the attention of the imperial capital. If he killed him, he would soon be in trouble.
But of course, Tang En wouldn't let him go so easily. After leaving here, he planned to find Locke and reveal the news of Duwei kidnapping the little girl to him.
At that time, the mercenary guild would expose this scandal, which would be much better than him doing it himself.
Even the nobles in the imperial capital couldn't face the mercenary guild head-on. Their scandals were all in the hands of the mercenary guild.
Seeing that Tang En didn't intend to kill him, Duwei was finally relieved.
Fortunately, as long as he was still alive, the gold coins would always be earned back.
Duwei made a decision: This year's tax will be increased by 50%. By this time next year, it should be more or less the same!
Tang En pulled Elijah and intended to leave.
"Big brother Lord, why did you let him go?"
Elijah wrinkled her nose: "He kidnapped Elijah, so he must have kidnapped other children. Why not kill such a bad guy?"
"Oh?"
Tang En paused and looked at Elijah: "Elijah doesn't like him?"
"Yes!"
Elijah nodded heavily: "He is a big bad guy! A big pervert! He even appeared in front of Elijah without clothes, so annoying! "
"So that's how it is, then kill him."
Tang En nodded and swung his long sword. The long sword whistled through Baron Duwei's body and nailed his body to the wall.
Duwei's brain still hadn't recovered, and he struggled very painfully: "No … … We agreed … … Not to kill me … …"
"Oh, sorry, I changed my mind," Tang En waved his hand without looking back, "Elijah hates you, so you'd better die."
"You … … Damn … … Pervert … … Con … …"
After desperately saying this sentence, Duwei's head sank and he died completely.
Although he didn't intend to kill Duwei, Tang En wasn't afraid of anything if he really did kill him. It was nothing more than some trouble from the capital.
If the Cadier family really sent a master to avenge him, then it would be a good opportunity to verify the strength of Prandal's high-end combat power.
Killing Duwei was the same as swatting a mosquito.
"Pop!" A letter fell from Duwei's body.
Tang En, who was just about to walk out of the vault, stopped and the letter flew into his hand.
"Carmen?"
Tang En looked at the name and frowned. He opened the letter and read it. The more he read, the tighter his frown became.
The information revealed in this letter was very evil. It turned out that Baron Duwei wasn't a pervert who liked little girls!
He was actually collecting little girls for this guy named Carmen, and that Carmen seemed to be using the little girls to carry out some kind of evil ritual. Baron Duwei had a deal with him. He would provide Carmen with little girls and magic crystals, and after the ritual was completed, Carmen would bestow him with great power and a longer life.
No matter how you look at it, this Carmen looks like a cultist, and Duwei is the one who is tempted.
"Helping the evildoer, no complaints."
Unfortunately … …
Tang En shook his head: "A letter reveals too little information."
He pondered for a moment, then took Elijah back to Duwei's study upstairs. He spread out his spirit power in the study, but in the end, he didn't find the second letter.
"It seems that this guy destroyed all the previous letters … …"
Tang En held the envelope and remained silent. After a moment of hesitation, he made a copy of the letter, and then went back and stuffed the envelope into Baron Duwei's body.
Although he wanted to deal with Carmen, the letter didn't reveal Carmen's location at all, so he couldn't find him. Besides, Ellington had a lot of things to do, so how could he waste time on a nobody?
"Big brother, there are so many people outside … …"
Elijah was a little scared as she hugged Tang En's neck, her body trembling slightly.
She rarely saw so many people rushing over so aggressively, so she was very scared.
"It's okay, we'll go straight back to the hotel."
Tang En patted her head and then directly teleported back to the hotel with Elijah.
After cleaning up his clothes, Tang En took Elijah downstairs.
In Prandal, the boundary between hotels and taverns was very blurred. Many taverns were hotels on the second floor, and many inns were taverns on the first floor. This place was no exception, so the first floor was a tavern with a hubbub of voices.
At this moment, the news of what happened in the Lord's Mansion had spread. Those adventurers drinking beer and eating barbecue were loudly discussing the matter of the Lord's Mansion, guessing who broke in.
"I guess that person must be unlucky," a local adventurer's face was full of schadenfreude, "Duwei's butler is not simple … …"
"Ogg? Isn't he a butler? "
"Bah! How can a butler carry such a strong smell of blood all day? Anyone with a little experience can see that Ogg has killed a lot of people. To be honest, I've seen him before, and I really hate the smell on his body. It's as disgusting as a rat in a ditch. "
"Anyway, this time Duwei is in big trouble. Now there's no movement in the Lord's Mansion, and the guards are still hesitating whether to rush in or not … …"
As soon as this person's voice fell, a person suddenly broke into the tavern, "Latest news! The guards have broken into the Lord's Mansion! They found the guard's body! "
"Boom!"
A second wave of discussion broke out in the tavern. This time, the focus of the discussion was Duwei, Ogg, and the murderer, who would survive.
"Latest news! Ogg's body has been found – Ogg vomited blood and died! "
"Latest news! Baron Duwei is dead! He died in the vault, pierced by a sword and nailed to the wall! "
"Latest news! The guards found a letter on Baron Duwei's body, guess what? Baron Duwei turned out to be the mastermind behind the kidnapping of the little girl in Casparmy Castle! "
"What!?"
"It turned out to be Baron Duwei's doing!? Is this news true!? "
"Of course it's true!"
The man who reported the news confidently said, "The Mercenary Guild has canceled this mission, and we can basically confirm that the mastermind behind the scenes is Baron Duwei and his butler, Ogg!"
"Damn it! What a waste of my two thousand gold coins! "
It sounded like a mercenary who took the mission.
"Latest news! The mastermind behind the kidnapping has been determined, it is Baron Duwei without a doubt! A secret room has been found in the Lord's Mansion! There are also the little girls who have been missing recently! Now they have been released and returned home! "
The new news shocked the adventurers who were drinking in the tavern. They were more and more excited. No one thought that the kidnapping case that had troubled Casparmy Castle for so long would be solved because of Duwei's death!
What was even more unexpected was that the murderer was actually Baron Duwei!
A Lord who kidnapped his own people, this was simply unimaginable, it was simply digging his own grave!
Immediately after this news was confirmed, the mysterious person who killed Baron Duwei and uncovered this evil scandal became the focus of everyone's attention.
Unfortunately, the guards turned the Lord's Mansion upside down, but they still couldn't find the murderer.
And the people of Casparmy Castle, at this moment, had already called the murderer a mysterious hero.
Tang En sat in the corner with Elijah slowly eating barbecue and drinking beer. Looking at the changing expressions of those people, he felt very interesting.
"Hey? Mr. Tang En? "
A voice full of surprise sounded behind him.
Tang En looked up, it turned out to be Loke. = = = = PS: Vote, vote, vote!!! The king of votes on the right is myself, it's really shameful!
