My Attractiveness Only Affects Divine Beasts

Chapter 155 - Assassination in the City

When Mike thought of this, he instantly thought about what he had heard about the Master of the Empire.

‘Could it be him? Who is he? Could it be that so-called Master?’

Mike thought silently in his heart.

“If that Master is related to the Fierce Beast Hunting Union, that would be terrible!”

Thinking of this, Mike started to shiver.

Sifusco interrupted Mike’s thoughts to ask, “Mike, have you thought of something?”

Mike shook his head before speaking.

“No, I just thought of something else.”

Just then, Rowe and Romon also spoke up.

“If these two assassins aren’t from the Empire, then who would want to assassinate us? Could it be the southern and western regions of the Empire that have been revived?”

Before he had finished speaking, Dali had finally rushed back. When he saw everyone in such a state, he could not help but question them.

“What’s wrong? What happened? Why have two guards’ corpses suddenly appeared here? I thought the two of them were still alive when I left?”

Mike looked at Dali, who was still completely unaware of the situation. He smiled and said, “The two of them were assassins. When Sifusco and I sensed their auras, we immediately caught them. Unfortunately, almost instantly, the two of them bit their tongues and committed suicide!”

“Why did this happen? What exactly happened?”

Dali continued to ask.

Mike explained further.

“Although these two are assassins, they don’t seem to belong to the Empire’s forces!”

“Could it be that there are other forces in Lecter City?”

Dali asked.

Mike nodded and replied.

“We can’t be sure right now, but from the looks of it, that seems to be the case!”

“Who could it be? We don’t seem to be enemies with any other factions other than the Empire!”

Hearing Dali’s words, everyone smiled and said, “We don’t know which faction is involved, but from the looks of it, this faction seems to be inextricably linked to the Empire.”

Suddenly, Rowe thought of something and asked, “Dali, how is the investigation going? Did you get any results?”

Dali immediately replied.

“Yes, I found something out! I already questioned the guard at the gate. Lately, there have indeed been a group of people who claim to be merchants who have come to Lecter City.

“According to that guard, this group of merchants seems to number about 20 people.”

Rowe asked, “Have you grasped the current movements of this group of people?”

Dali shook his head and replied.

“Not yet. We don’t know where that group of merchants is now. On the way back, I questioned various people in the city. There’s been no trace of this group of caravans.”

Hearing this, Rowe said, “It seems that the problem lies with these merchants, Sifusco!”

“Yes!”

“Follow Dali to investigate the whereabouts of these merchants! You must find out their movements during the three days of the Lieluo Army’s vacation!”

“Yes!”

After Rowe gave the order, Sifusco immediately followed Dali to the door and began to investigate the whereabouts of the twenty-man caravan.

“Captain Dali, where do you think we should start our investigation now?”

Sifusco asked as he looked at Dali.

Dali was currently feeling confused as well. He then spoke.

“Since they are disguised as merchants, they should definitely appear in the marketplace. I left in a hurry without having time to ask in detail.

“I think we should start from the marketplace and investigate it properly!”

When Sifusco heard Dali’s words, he felt that it was very reasonable. He then followed Dali to the marketplace in the distance.

When the two of them arrived at the marketplace, the bustling scene made the two of them frown again.

The residents of Lecter City were singing and dancing to celebrate the victory in the war.

Among them, many vendors had chosen to pack up their stalls early and go home to celebrate the victory in the war with their families.

Although the streets were bustling with people, the still alley looked quite empty.

Sifusco gave Dali a helpless look before proceeding to speak.

“Captain Dali, are you sure we can ask what we want to ask here?”

Dali also smiled helplessly before speaking.

“Let’s just ask first!”

Then, Dali walked towards an old woman who was about to pack up and go home.

He asked, “Old woman, have you seen a group of twenty or so peddlers in the past few days?”

The old woman shook her head and said, “No, no! We have never seen such a group of people here!”

After receiving a negative answer, Sifusco and Dali walked away in disappointment.

Even after a series of inquiries, they still did not get the answer they wanted.

Then, just as the both of them were almost in despair, an old man walked out from the crowd. The old man took the initiative to speak to Dali and Sifusco.

“Excuse me, are you looking for someone?”

Seeing that someone had taken the initiative to speak to him, Dali responded enthusiastically.

“That’s right! Sir, have you seen a group of twenty or so merchants these past few days?”

The old man listened, thought for a moment, before replying.

“I haven’t seen them on this street, but…”

“But what?” Dali asked enthusiastically.

He was looking intently at the old man in front of him. From within the old man’s eyes, he seemed to see a glimmer of hope.

Right now, Dali seemed to feel that there was a chance.

The old man paused for a moment and then said, “I often see a group of people wearing strange clothes at night in the residential street!

“A few days ago, when I came home late, I always noticed a group of such people. I wonder if they are the people you are looking for?”

When Dali heard this news, he was unusually excited and asked, “Sir, can you tell us the exact location?”
