The beautiful mage was kidnapped by the contracted beast again

Hey, hey, hey.

The subtle sound was the sound of shaking bodies colliding with each other.

The necks of these twenty or so people were strangled by ropes, which were then wrapped around them many times and then haphazardly hung on the enormous crystal chandelier in the center of the hall. Due to the uneven weight, the crystal chandelier also rotated in circles.

From a distance, it looks like a bunch of bacon hanging from the beams and slowly rotating while drying.

The carpet under their feet had long been stained with blood, drawing a huge circle. It was unknown whether anyone had walked on it. The bloodstains appeared blurry and messy, and it was impossible to tell what they originally looked like.

The corpses slowly turned, and one of them revealed a face that Miaomiao had seen once.

It was the bearded young man who, when he first arrived at the boarding point, enthusiastically introduced the rules to them and said he was eighteen years old.

Miaomiao vaguely remembered that his name was Hans.

That smiling face was forever frozen in the last moment of terrified death.

He turned his gaze and looked at the other corpses. Sure enough, they all had a blue rope with a wolf head on it.

Surrounding the hall, which was filled with the aura of death, many people watched from afar, but no one dared to approach too closely, only whispering to each other. The staff gathered around, but had no intention of approaching to do anything. They simply opened the cabin door and let the passengers who had arrived at their destination to disembark.

The female captain, who was originally scolding someone, saw Miaomiao and the others coming down, and temporarily stopped scolding them and walked towards them. She saluted Miaomiao, her expression still not very good: "Are you going to get off the boat?"

Miaomiao nodded and pointed to the front and asked, "What's going on here?"

The female captain became infuriated when she mentioned this. She angrily said, "I don't know who did it. Not only did they kill people, they also found all the crystal balls used for record keeping on the ship and smashed them. Not a single one was left. He also stained the carpet on the ship. It was so big that it couldn't be used again after washing."

She was clearly upset that the murderer had vandalized public property but hadn't paid ten times the compensation, so she was dedicated to finding clues at the scene of death to locate the culprit. However, judging by her recent outburst, the investigation wasn't going well.

Liu An walked around the scene, stroking his chin as he spoke, "These people are all from the same mercenary group. Such a large-scale killing went undetected. It must have been premeditated. Perhaps it's related to their mission?"

However, only the Mercenary Alliance can check the records of what missions the mercenary group has accepted, and no one knows which mission caused the feud.

The other party even chose to take action inside the spaceship, which clearly showed that they were here to kill people without any jurisdiction.

Miaomiao glanced at Hans, who was still hanging on the crystal chandelier. After a moment of silence, she said to the female captain, "If possible, let's find a place to bury them after this."

He guessed that given the style on the spaceship, if he didn't say anything, the female captain would probably just find a place to throw the body down.

Hans had met him once before, so he still hoped that the other party would leave in a decent manner.

The order came from the Duke, and it was such a small matter, so the female captain naturally had no objection.

"You are so kind," she said.

Miaomiao just responded with a faint smile.

After getting off the spaceship, there is a port and another identity check is required upon entry.

After once again being exempted from identity verification by relying on the royal insignia, Liu An couldn't help but cast a strange look at his two companions: "Hey, Xiao Shui'er, tell me the truth, you are not the illegitimate son of King Ernst, are you?"

Unlike the female captain, Liu An, who loves collecting intelligence, quickly grasped the information of the royal families of the countries he visited. He was extremely sure that Jiang Liujing was not on the list of children announced by Estes.

Jiang Liujing kept walking: "Don't you know how to tell fortunes? You can tell the answer by telling fortunes yourself."

Liu An followed his steps and muttered, "You clearly know that I'm not accurate."

As he said this, he glanced at Chi again. This taciturn red-haired guy was so mysterious that he couldn't even figure out his background.

As the second-largest city in the Dawn Empire, Rhine's bustle far surpassed Ernst's. As soon as I left the harbor, the clamor of people surged in like a wave.

Dense trees lined the clean, spacious road, blocking the sun's blazing rays like a giant reaching out. Automatic fountains were installed at intervals, swirling and spraying water in a 360-degree, unobstructed motion. Puffs of cool, fine mist washed away the lingering summer heat.

Liu An volunteered to be the navigator, taking them through the winding streets and alleys without even looking at a map. It made people wonder if he was a local resident who had lived in this city for more than ten years.

When the bustling crowds gradually faded away, the neat and densely packed commercial buildings gradually turned into an empty and open plain. After crossing the last magic barrier, a large and magnificent castle that seemed to exist only in fairy tales suddenly jumped into the eyes of the three people.

Just one glance and Jiang Liujing couldn't help but hold his breath.

It is really so beautiful and spectacular.

Before entering the school gate, you can see several towers of different colors from afar. The fluttering flags form a long flowing dragon, extending from one tower to another.

The school gates were open, and a stream of people streamed in. Students dressed in various distinctive school uniforms were bustling around. When they saw new students approaching, their eyes lit up and they waved at them.

"New student? Here, here."

Beside them was a huge stone tablet, engraved with a lifelike three-legged golden crow flapping its wings, ready to fly. Its high-spirited posture seemed as if it would fly out of the stone wall at any time.

All things live and die, and sing to the rising sun.

It is the national emblem of the Dawn Empire.
