The assassination of Master Zerath had become the topic of conversation among the residents of Elba for a long time. Since Master Zerath's money was missing, the nature of the case was determined to be robbery and murder.
The matter was handled by Prince Yu. In order to minimize the impact, he did not pay attention to evidence at all. In two days, five murderers were arrested, their tongues were cut, and their tendons were cut off. Finally, they were executed in front of the public, thus ending the case.
The five murderers were actually the accomplices of Master Zerath. One of them was the one who bought the pot of desire and the one who robbed the antique from Black Cat.
Prince Yu investigated thoroughly and found clues through the five murderers. As a result, he accidentally learned about Master Zerath's behavior in recent years from the five murderers.
Perhaps he felt that continuing the investigation was purely a waste of energy and time, so he used the five murderers as a scapegoat.
He closed the case quickly and his methods were extremely violent, but it could not change the fact that Zerath was assassinated in Elba. He had to take the blame for lax public security and was reprimanded by the king for this.
Regarding this matter, Law did not pay attention to it at all, nor did he pursue the matter of Black Cat killing people without authorization. After all, the other party had taken out a sharp knife, so it was obviously not easy to deal with.
In the blink of an eye, ten days had passed since they arrived in Elba.
Law learned about Sa Ling and the forbidden desert through the diary, but he did not rush to ask Brother Sa or Lin Nie. He always felt that it was inappropriate to mention the topic of a dead person.
Because Bohara ate all the insect pots in Brother Sa's shop on the first day, he had to help Brother Sa look after the shop most of the time.
During the day, Brother Sa, who had spare time, became a professional tour guide. Every day, he took Lin Nie and Law around the city of Elba, tasted the local delicacies, and visited the shops that specialized in selling various spices.
In the past, Law had to rely on the White Smoke Font to know the origin of things, but since he was familiar with all the books in Lin Nie's collection, even if he did not use the White Smoke Font, he could know the origin of many things at a glance.
The reason why Lin Nie took Law to touch various spices was, on the one hand, to purchase them, and on the other hand, to test Law. The result was naturally satisfactory.
When he returned to the shop, the fat auntie who lived nearby was chatting with Bohara at the entrance of the shop. Her mood was even more enthusiastic than the sun in the sky.
Because business at Brother Sa's shop was really slow, Bohara was unable to free himself and was constantly pestered by the fat auntie to chat.
Seeing that Law and the others had finally returned, Bohara was relieved. He threw away the pestering fat auntie and strode towards Law, asking eagerly, "What did you bring today?"
"Grilled lizard leg."
Law handed a large pack of lizard legs wrapped in kraft paper to Bohara, who took it excitedly, then opened it and ate it on the spot.
Brother Sa walked to the fat auntie's side and said lazily, "You old cow, don't even think about eating young grass."
"Scram!"
The fat auntie glared at him angrily. She picked up the packed insect pot and turned to leave.
Brother Sa looked at the fat auntie's back and sighed in his heart. He knew that the fat auntie was pestering Bohara because Bohara's naivety resembled her foolish son who had never returned from the forbidden zone.
Lin Nie walked slowly into the shop and climbed the stairs to the second floor.
Law came to the side, picked up a red scorpion and stuffed it into his mouth, and said while eating, "You guys go in, I'll take care of the shop."
Brother Sa nodded and rushed into the shop, presumably to find Lin Nie. Bohara also felt that it was too hot outside, so he took the freshly opened lizard leg and ran in, leaving Law sitting alone at the entrance of the shop.
Brother Sa's shop was located in a residential area, still some distance away from the busy streets. There was very little traffic, which was also the reason why his shop's business was slow, but his insect pot was one of the best in Elba.
This house was bought by Sa Ling, and Brother Sa converted the first floor into a shop dedicated to selling insect pots, probably because Sa Ling liked to eat insect pots.
"In the past few days, there hasn't been a single antique in Vulture Street. It seems that the production rate of antiques in the desert is not very good. After all, the risk factor is very high." Law leaned on his cheek and looked at the ground outside.
Ever since he had tasted the sweetness of Vulture Street that day, he would take time to go there almost every day. However, except for that day when he had the best harvest, he rarely saw any antiques that carried Psyche, which meant that no new antiques had been produced.
During the free time, in addition to going to Vulture Street, Law also went to many bars to inquire about the forbidden zone of the desert, but the locals seemed to regard it as a taboo. Not only did they not talk about it, but they also warned Law not to be too curious.
This phenomenon was different from what was described in Sa Ling's diary. Perhaps after decades, some things and attitudes have changed.
At night, the full moon hung high in the sky, and Elba fell into a quiet atmosphere. Almost everyone fell asleep, and only the soldiers in charge of public security were still at their posts and patrolling the streets.
In the night, two figures, one tall and one short, walked quickly through the streets, easily avoiding the soldiers of Elba.
The two figures were Law and Lin Nie.
When the two came to the outer city wall, Law used his telekinesis to open a mouth, and then left Elba and headed for the desert outside.
About two kilometers away from Elba, Law and Lin Nie stopped near a stone about six or seven meters high.
During the day, Lin Nie took Law to personally experience spices and local delicacies, and at night, she taught Law the skills of telekinesis and her sect skills.
Although they were not master and disciple, Lin Nie thoroughly carried out her responsibility as a master, which was Law's luck.
"Nitro's' Fa 'is the ultimate static rotation. Before he urges his telekinesis, his telekinesis is as calm as stagnant water, but after it is urged, it is as fast as lightning, which is impossible to guard against."
Lin Nie stood on the sand and raised her hand. Her telekinesis was like a sleeping tiger, motionlessly wrapped around her arm. As the last word fell, she suddenly punched, and the wind suddenly burst!
The speed of the punch was quite fast, and the calm telekinesis also gushed out, which was a phenomenon of high synchronization with the fist.
"Can you do it too?"
Law looked at Lin Nie's demonstration and asked.
"Did you see my punch clearly?" Lin Nie asked.
"Yes." Law nodded.
"Nitro's punching speed is several times faster than mine." Lin Nie said lightly.
The implication was that she was far from Nitro's level, and there was one thing she didn't say, that is, the speed of the punch was one thing, but the flow of telekinesis was the most difficult thing to keep up with the speed of the punch.
Law knew the details of Nitro's strength, but he could only pretend not to know.
Lin Nie raised three fingers and continued: "Nitro's realm, today the number of people in the world who can reach it is not more than this. I can't do it. It's not a realm that can be reached by simple hard work. Talent is also very important."
After a pause, she stared at Law, who was listening carefully. "But I think you can reach it later."
Realm is not all strength, it is the product of long years of precipitation, but nothing is absolute. There will always be indescribable geniuses in the world, such as Jin …
Hearing Lin Nie's words, Law was stunned. He didn't expect Lin Nie's evaluation of him to be so high.
Lin Nie didn't wait for Law to respond. She suddenly raised her hand and pressed it on the stone. There was no obvious fluctuation of telekinesis, but a deep pit was sunk on the stone. The area was twice the size of Lin Nie's palm.
"Nitro is fast, and I am slow. Which one do you choose?"
"Can I choose both?"
