Reincarnation Paradise: The Void Debt Collector

The last one, Elvi Anthony, is different. As the chief judge, his power is greatly magnified in this world with extremely backward communications.

He can convict a person in a clever way, and he can also exonerate a person in an appropriate way.

If wealthy businessmen, commoners, middle-class commoners, and middle and lower-level officials violated the laws of the kingdom, they would be judged by him.

This enabled him to have a huge network of contacts and financial resources in the royal capital.

Although the Iron Hand had purged many of the old king's dissidents, it was indeed rare to purge important officials like the Chief Justice.

Just as Su Xiao was thinking about what to do tonight, a mouse suddenly crawled into the room.

At first glance, there was nothing special about the appearance of this mouse. Its small body was inconspicuous and its fur was slightly gray. The strange thing was that it was not afraid of the blood emanating from Su Xiao at all. Instead, it bravely ran to Su Xiao's feet, raised its head, and looked straight at Su Xiao with its pair of black eyes.

Lidya Su frowned slightly and looked down at the mouse under his feet.

Soon, he discovered that there was something strange in the mouse's abdomen, as if something was tied there.

Am grabbed the mouse, and the mouse did not struggle. Instead, it rubbed its head gently against Am's fingers. Such docile behavior clearly showed that this creature had been domesticated by humans.

In the mouse's belly, Su Xiao saw a small paper tube. He tore off the tube, opened it and saw a distorted pattern drawn on it. The pattern was crooked and the lines were crisscrossed.

Su Xiao had seen this kind of pattern before. When Iron Hand's identity was introduced in Samsara Paradise, a lot of secret codes were marked below it.

Su Xiao deciphered these distorted patterns according to the secret code, and soon he got three words.

'Is there me?'

"Who sent the secret letter?"

Even Lin Yi, the dean of the Alchemy Academy, has his own way of recording. Su Xiao, as the Iron Hand, must also have related secret codes.

"Rowan Harvey."

"That old man with a white beard? The one who is the kingdom's treasurer?" Upon hearing Rowan Harvey's name, Lin Yi immediately stopped picking up the food and turned his gaze to Su Xiao.

“What? Did that guy offend you?” Seeing Lin Yi’s reaction so big, Su Xiao couldn’t help but feel a little doubtful.

He thought that the identity Lin Yi exchanged for was in opposition to Rowan Harvey, and even planned in his mind that if it didn't work, he would find a way to get rid of Rowan Harvey tonight.

"No, but that guy's identity is very interesting."

"identity?"

"Yes, that guy Rowan Harvey is a mixed-blood just like the two little lolis just now." As soon as Lin Yi finished speaking, Su Xiao's pupils suddenly shrank.

This news is really not good news.

As the kingdom's treasurer, Rowan Harvey's half-blood identity would surely cause a huge storm once it was revealed.

From the treatment of the two little lolis, it can be seen that the Kingdom of Saint Sodin is very wary of mixed-bloods.

As for the reason, it is that the talents of the hybrids are too powerful. Not only do they have the growth potential of humans, but they also have the long lifespan of the undead.

Throughout history, there have been more than one incident where undead hybrids have rebelled after reaching the position of undead monarch.

Nowadays, if the kingdom’s guards encounter a half-blood without an owner on the street, they will either imprison him or execute him on the spot.

If other people knew about this, it would be like throwing a huge rock into a calm lake, shaking the entire kingdom.

"As the financial officer, he shouldn't be involved in the fight for the throne. No wonder he came here to question me as soon as he heard any sign of trouble."

Su Xiao was a little surprised at first. As the treasurer of the kingdom and one of the four powerful people, the old king would not easily take action against Rowan Harvey even if the fight for the throne had an impact on him.

After Lin Yi revealed Rowan Harvey's identity, everything made sense.

Rowan Harvey knew that once his half-blood identity was revealed, it would bring disaster.

Therefore, during such a sensitive period as the fight for the throne, he would inevitably be extremely cautious and would become extremely nervous at the slightest sign of trouble.

Once the old king knew that Rowan Harvey was a half-blood, he would not be able to escape death, not to mention that he was the treasurer of the kingdom. Even if he served as the general + treasurer + chairman of the parliament at the same time, he would not be able to escape death.

In this world, the conflict between humans and the undead is extremely acute.

Thousands of years of fighting had already caused the two races to lose their sympathy for each other. Even human children would kill the Undead with laughter when they saw them.

It is a kind of hatred and vigilance that runs deep in the bone marrow, and has continued to settle and solidify over the long years.

Su Xiao looked at the note in his hand. After thinking for a while, he threw the note into the brazier.

The flames instantly devoured the note, reducing it to ashes.

Then he released the mouse.

"Should we tell the old king about Rowan Harvey's matter?" Lin Yi asked.

"Just wait and see what happens."

Lin Yi and Su Xiao both understood that the fact that Rowan Harvey, a mixed-blood, could sit in the position of the kingdom's treasurer must mean that there must be a huge force behind him supporting him.

Otherwise, Rowan Harvey might have been eliminated by other competitors halfway.

The other party let Rowan Harvey, a mixed-race, sit in this position, and they must want him to do something earth-shattering, otherwise why would they go through so much effort?

Moreover, the subordinates may not know the current situation of the old king, but Rowan Harvey, who often comes into contact with the old king, must be able to guess part of it.

I'm afraid it won't be long before the force behind Rowan Harvey comes out to cause trouble. After all, there is no more appropriate time than the competition for the throne.

Around 8 o'clock in the evening, night had just fallen and the sky seemed to be covered by a mysterious black veil.

The people in the royal capital had just finished dinner and had nothing to do.

Su Xiao originally planned to go out and get a map of the capital, but Lin Yi said that there was no need to go through so much trouble.

If Lin Yi remembered correctly, there seemed to be a map of the royal capital hanging in a classroom of the Alchemy Academy.

With Lin Yi's identity, no one dared to stop him from taking the map.

What's more, this time Su Xiao also followed Lin Yi into the Alchemy Academy.

When the teachers from the Alchemy Academy saw Su Xiao wearing the Iron Hand costume, they all tried to avoid him and didn't dare to get close to Lin Yi and Su Xiao.

"Isn't there a more precise map?" Su Xiao looked at the map in Lin Yi's hand, which was about 5 meters long, and frowned slightly.

He found that the pattern on it was very simple. If Su Xiao did not have a good memory, he would not even be able to find where the palace was.

The rough lines and blurred markings make it difficult to accurately identify the locations of various places.

"Don't look at it. You know the productivity of this society." Lin Yi shook his head slightly, with a hint of helplessness in his tone.

"The map I have here can be said to be the most accurate map. If you go to a store outside to buy it, you may not be able to buy it even if you want. Moreover, this thing is a controlled item, and ordinary people will not sell it." Lin Yi was indeed right.

In ancient times, precise maps were controlled items.

Because ordinary people have no use for this thing, only some ambitious people will stockpile this thing to prepare for their own ambitions.

In this era, maps are not just a tool, but also a symbol of power.

Mastering the map means mastering the understanding and control of the territory.

And this kind of power will not be easily possessed by ordinary people.

As night fell, the entire capital was shrouded in darkness except for a few places where faint lights were still flickering.

In Su Xiao's residence, 50 guards wearing black armor were standing behind Lin Yi. They were not ordinary soldiers, but killing machines specially trained by the royal family. As long as the order was given, they would not hesitate even if they were asked to die.

In front of the fifty guards stood a captain wearing silver-white armor.

He is tall and mighty, a holy warrior trained by the royal family at great expense, and his name is Hicks Donn.

The old king knew that tonight's cleanup operation was full of danger, so he specially sent Hicks to protect Lin Yi.

You have to know that the old king himself doesn't have many assassins of this level under his command. This is enough to show how much the old king values ​​Lin Yi.

"It's almost time." Lin Yi raised his head slightly and glanced at the moon hanging in the sky. The cold moonlight sprinkled on his face.

A silver pocket watch appeared in Lin Yi's hand. After confirming that the time was up, he turned his gaze to the soldier behind him.

As for Su Xiao, at this moment he was sheathing the Dragon-Slaying Flash after it had been maintained. The sharp long sword made a slight hum in the sheath.

Bubu Wang and A'mu stood on Su Xiao's left and right. When Su Xiao stood up, his eyes flashed a hint of blood in the moonlight.

"Set off."

Hearing Su Xiao's order, fifty guards followed Su Xiao out of the mansion in an orderly manner.

The fifty guards had expressionless faces, like cold machines.

Their steps were in perfect unison, and the sound of armor rubbing against each other was particularly clear in the silent night.

Su Xiao, who was originally going to kill someone, was already covered in blood, and with the fifty "killing machines" behind him, the temperature around him seemed to begin to drop.

As for Hicks, he did not follow Su Xiao.

The old king gave him only one order, which was to protect Lin Yi.

"Let's go. I believe many people will not be able to sleep tonight."

Lin Yi stood up and followed the team. Hicks didn't say anything, but just followed Lin Yi silently.

The bright moon hung high in the sky, its cool light shining on the streets of the royal capital.

Su Xiao walked among them, the bright moonlight reflected on his face, outlining his cold outline.

Tonight is indeed a good night for killing.

The streets were empty and eerily quiet. Except for the heavy sound of the armored guards, the surroundings were completely silent.

The first target Su Xiao wanted to eliminate was Ian Pollitt, the congressman.

In his opinion, this guy is the easiest to deal with.

During the day, Su Xiao had already found out the residences of the four targets. Three of them lived in the central area of ​​the royal capital. The closer to the center of the royal capital, the higher the price of the property. This is commonly known as the "rich area". The people who live here are either rich or noble.

Of the four, only one does not live here, and that is Chief Judge Elvi Anthony.

His official rank was not high, and although he was ranked among the top three in wealth in the capital, he had to keep a low profile because his money came from unknown sources.

The reason why the old king wanted to get rid of the chief judge was not because he was going to rebel, but because he was too rich.

The old king is leaving a "newbie gift package" for the new king.

In terms of ability, the chief judge is very good, but unfortunately, he did not see the situation clearly.

Two days ago, he didn't care about the old king's joking remark that "the treasury is tight recently."

In fact, that was the last chance the old king gave him. As long as he gave up most of his wealth, the chief judge could keep both his official position and his life.

What does it mean to live with a king like a tiger? This is what the old king said, seemingly as a joke, but in fact it concerns someone's life and death.

After walking for about ten minutes, the buildings on both sides of the street were no longer shrouded in darkness, and some of the buildings emitted dim candlelight.

This is a place similar to a "high-end club" in the royal capital, providing delicious food, drinks, and women, and sometimes organizing some unique entertainment activities. It is the favorite entertainment venue for the rich at night.

Tonight, our congressman brought his wife to this "high-end club".

This couple is extremely weird. The husband will look for young and beautiful women here, and the wife will choose the middle-aged man she likes.

There was an unusually "harmonious" relationship between them, or rather, there was no affection at all between them.

They got married purely for power and benefit, so if that's the case, they might as well have some fun together.

It is always better to be open than to be sneaky, and it is also very exciting. This kind of thing is not uncommon among the rich.

The sound of women's sweet laughter could be heard from this three-story castle, and from time to time there were also loud laughter from men.

The sound seemed particularly harsh in the silent night, as if telling of the extravagance and indulgence here.

Su Xiao led his men towards the castle, where two strong men were standing in front of the castle gate.

"Stop!" one of the sturdy men shouted.

He saw Su Xiao coming towards him through the dim candlelight. Based on his years of experience as a doorman, he knew that Su Xiao was definitely not a guest and was most likely here to cause trouble.

"This is Lord Warner's private territory. Get out if you don't want to die." The sturdy man's attitude was extremely bad.

Although he saw the soldiers behind Su Xiao, he had never seen what these soldiers were wearing.

Secondly, Su Xiao was not wearing the clothing unique to aristocrats.

Combining the two, the strong man concluded that Su Xiao might be a small wealthy businessman with several guards.

In his opinion, Su Xiao came here today most likely to cause trouble.

There is no need to bring guards when having fun in the royal capital. This is an unspoken rule among the rich.

The strong man has seen many people like this and can deal with them with ease.

First of all, he must be firm in his attitude and never back down, because behind him is an adult who holds a high position in the royal capital.
