Chapter 4601
- Bloody Specter City. Finn was, naturally, unhappy about the recent incident in the Silverwyrm Army’s camp. Apart from a few soldiers who were out on missions, the soldiers, the miners in the Celestial Stone mine, and the newly ascended celestials were all killed. Inside the great hall of the City Governor’s estate. Finn was seated on the main seat while Neymar, the Commander of the Black Dragon Army, was seated below. Finn asked grimly, “Neymar, what do you think about the recent incident?” Although his cultivation base granted him a better physique, it could be seen that he was visibly exhausted from his long investigation of the incident. His eyes were bloodshot. “Initially, I thought the Silverwyrm Army might have offended someone. However, the more I thought about it, the more it doesn’t add up. If Locke provoked someone who strong enough to kill him, that someone should’ve looked for you to have a word with you. After all, you’re not only Locke’s superior, but you’re also the City Governor of Bloody Specter City,” Neymar replied. After a moment, he seemed to recall something so he asked, “Lord City Governor, didn’t Locke carry a Floating Image Celestial Talisman?” “When he died, the Major Floating Image Celestial Talisman didn’t receive the recording from his Minor Floating Image Celestial Talisman,” Finn said. Upon hearing Finn’s words, Neymar inhaled sharply. “Then... Does this mean a Great Overarching Golden Celestial killed Locke?” Finn answered confidently, “That’s highly likely...” “How or when did the Silverwyrm Army offend a Great Overarching Golden Celestial? If a Great Overarching Golden Celestial was here, it would be impossible for him not to visit the City Governor, right?” Neymar muttered to himself skeptically. “Perhaps, there’s more than meets the eyes,” Finn said gravely. Whoosh! Suddenly, a gust of wind blew into the hall. “Lord City Governor.” An ancient voice rang in the air at this moment. Following that, an old man appeared in the great hall, cupping his fists at Finn. Upon seeing the old man, Neymar quickly rose to his feet and respectfully greeted the old man, “Elder Miller.” Although he was the Commander of the Black Dragon Army, he did not dare to be negligent or disrespectful to this old man. Not only did this old man have a good relationship with Finn, but the old man was also the head of the Golden Serpent Guards and the second strongest person in Blood Specter City. “Elder Miller, any success?” Finn asked with a hint of anticipation. Elder Miller nodded slightly before he said, “Lord City Governor, there were two unknown visitors who came to Bloody Specter City recently. These two individuals came from the County Governor’s estate in the County City of Nine Specters County!” “Two individuals from the County Governor’s estate?” Finn widened his eyes in shock. He asked grimly, “Who were they?” At the same time, Kaden Rollins appeared in his mind. After all, Kaden Rollins was one of the two Great Overarching Golden Celestials in Nine Specter County. Finn and Neymar looked at Elder Miller, riveted, as Elder Miller replied, “Among the two individuals, one of them is an inner-estate elder called Shane Erickson. As for the other person, he’s Frank, the godson of Kaden Rollins, the first Revered Elder of Nine Specters County. About one and a half years ago, David Bishop had severed all four of Frank’s limbs!” After a moment, he said, “Shane Erickson is Kaden Rollins’s subordinate, and Frank is Kaden Rollins’s godson... Is it a coincidence that the Silverwyrm Army was annihilated?” Finn mulled over Elder Miller’s words for a moment before his expression changed dramatically. “Lord City Governor...” Neymar was quite curious. What did Finn think of that his expression turned so unsightly? Alas, Finn waved his hand dismissively and said, “Neymar, you may take your leave. I’ve figured out what happened so there’s no need for you to continue your investigation. I’ll explain the matter to you another time. I have to speak to Elder Miller privately now.” Despite his curiosity, Neymar did not protest and swiftly left the great hall. “Yes, Lord City Governor.” Once Neymar left, Finn said in a grave tone, “Elder Miller, if I’m not mistaken, Kaden Rollins must have discovered that David Bishop is a Heavenly Celestial who had just ascended to the Spirit Overarching Heaven two years ago. Moreover, he must have found out about David Bishop’s extraordinary Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities. Based on his greedy nature, there’s no doubt that he covets David Bishop’s Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities. Otherwise, there’s no need for him to take such a drastic measure to make sure nobody from the Silverwyrm Army would be able to leak this news.” After putting the puzzles together, it was not difficult for him to guess that the culprit was Kaden Rollins. Elder Miller asked, “Governor, if it was Kaden Rollins, why didn’t he come to look for trouble with you?” “Kaden Rollins is a petty and conceited person. I’m afraid he’s already discovered I sent David Bishop to deal with him... Based on his character, after he deals with David Bishop, he’ll definitely come and look for me!” Based on Finn’s words, it seemed like he knew Kaden Rollins quite well.
