Harvey was stunned on the spot. The Tier 4 aura pressed down on him, causing all the cells in his body to tremble.
With just a single move, a peak-Type 3 expert had fallen. This was the world of a Type 4 expert!
In order not to anger the other party, he could only lie,ââMr. Ockham, I donât understand your question. This video has nothing to do with our Mercenary Association. Iâm just here to investigate Walkerâs sudden death like the other two. â
He quickly clarified his connection with the video. The reason why the Arbitrator ordered him to retrieve the crystal ball was that he was afraid that the Hundred Cities Federation would continue to investigate and find out the layout of the Mercenary Association within their forces.
Ockham was able to do this because of the Mercenary Associationâs help.
The Mercenary Associationâs purpose in doing so was naturally to weaken the strength of the Hundred Cities Federation.
The son of the Prime Minister and his wife was a famous genius at that time, and could possibly become the next Type 4 expert.
If that happened, then including the Prime Minister and his wife, their family might have three Type 4 powerhouses!
This was comparable to the three brothers who founded the Bernadotte Empire. It was very likely that they would be like them, completely coordinating the loose forces of the Hundred Cities Federation and creating a more efficient organization.
This wasnât in line with the Mercenary Unionâs interests in New Frye, which was why the ambitious Ockham killed their son.
However, the Mercenary Association had not imagined that Ockham had also broken through to level 4 and became a platinum deacon of the Hundred Cities Federation.
Hence, the Crystal Ball that he had left behind had become a weapon that could threaten a Type 4 powerhouse.
After all, Ockham had just made a breakthrough. He couldnât defeat the general director and his wife who had stayed at level 4 for many years. He couldnât bear their anger.
As a result, the Mercenary Association decided to test Ockhamâs response to this information.
If he could control this Type 4 expert step by step and turn him into a puppet of the Mercenary Guild, it would be a huge profit.
However, he did not expect Walker to die on the streets. Even the Mercenary Association did not know who did it!
This accident had caused the situation to slide out of control.
If someone else got this crystal ball, Ockhamâs secret would be exposed.
Once this item was exposed, it could no longer be used to threaten Ockham, a new Type 4 expert. It would be a great loss to the Mercenary Association.
That was why the Arbitrator was so eager for Harvey to retrieve the crystal ball.
Ockham looked at the Poisonous Troop suspiciously. He didnât know which force recorded this video. Besides Hundred Cities Federation, the other three forces might have recorded it.
The probability of the Monster Alliance was the lowest. They had always been stupid. The only ones left were the Bernadotte Empire and the Mercenary Union.
If the Mercenary Guild wasnât behind this, then it must be Bernadotte.
âIs that so? Since itâs not your Mercenary Associationâs method, then you can go to hell. â
âAfter knowing the secret of Lord Ockham, you still want to leave here alive?â A melody with the fluctuation of laws shot out of Ockhamâs flute, covering Venomous Centaur Harvey.
âNo, I canât! Lord Ockham! You canât do this!â
Venomâs men were panicking. They had not imagined that Ockham could be so crazy tonight.
He had a high position in the Mercenary Association. Did Ockham not know the consequences of killing him?
Ockham broke through the poisonous smoke barrier like a knife cutting tofu!
âSigh.â
A faint sigh sounded, and a bubble suddenly wrapped around Venom Manhawi. The sonic attack that could easily kill a Tier 3 Champion was neutralized the moment the bubble popped.
âYouâre too murderous, Ockham.â
The white cloth covering the eyes of the arbitrator fluttered in the wind. His appearance was like a fairy, which was totally different from Ockhamâs.
âThis is the opposite of your Musical Profundity. No wonder youâve already broken through to Rank-4 for almost three years, but the improvement in your comprehension of the Laws of Profundity is negligible. â
Ockham changed his face at once. Undoubtedly, the arbitrator of Mercenary Association was the most powerful one in the entire City of Brilliance. If they really fought, Ockham would have a very low chance of winning. After all, this master was very good at both defense and attack.
His âProfound Truths of Musicâ was only powerful in terms of mental attacks.
Yang Xi looked at the two Type 4 experts that appeared one after another, and he was not surprised at all. From the beginning, he had sensed that there was a faint prying on him.
âBut there should still be someone hiding.â The feeling of being spied on didnât disappear with the appearance of Ockham and the arbitrator.â Who could it The arbitrator sensed Ockhamâs nervousness as he smiled, âHarvey lied just now. This crystal ball indeed came from our Mercenary Guild. I was also the one who asked Walker to trade with you. â
As he spoke, he even took the time to look at Yang Xi. The Arbitrator was very optimistic about this little guy called Dulan. Whether it was his talent or ability to handle things, he was the best choice.
Compared to Walker, Dulan was a better chess piece.
âOh, then what do you mean?â Ockham watched the arbitrator calmly. Now that this old thing didnât expose it to the public, it meant that there was still room for negotiation.
As long as he could make a deal, it was not a problem. After all, he had no loyalty to the Hundred Cities Federation.
He was just a pure opportunist. It was already a pleasant surprise for him to be able to advance to Tier 4 in this plane.
His next goal was to establish his own ability family. Therefore, he had been collecting mother ores and inheritance stones during this period of time.
He had originally planned to come to Light City to extort a sum of money and then make a profit on the battlefield. He did not expect this to happen.
The Arbitrator shook his head.â Before that, you have to answer a question of mine.â
âDid you kill Walker?â
âDo you think Iâm that reckless?â Ockham sneered. After knowing that this guy had something on me, why would I take the risk to kill him?â
âOh, but he died not far from you. Even if you didnât have time to save him, with your Tier 4 strength, you should be able to know the identity of the assassin, right?â
The arbitrator thought Ockham was hiding some information.
However, Ockham denied it,â That guy should be a LV 4 powerhouse. However, he killed Walker so fast and so stealthily that I didnât see him at all. â
âHowever, this matter is very simple. There are only a few of us in the City of Light, and if we didnât kill them, it would have been the other three. â
The arbitrator stared at Ockham, trying to find some clues from him. However, Ockham looked very calm as if he really had nothing to do with killing Walker. At this moment, a new voice sounded,â Ockham, are you suspecting me?â
Chris, who looked more and more like himself, appeared next to the Arbitrator. The blue color on his body had clearly decreased.
âIâm working very well with the Mercenary Association now, but I donât have the motive to kill Walker. â
The corners of his mouth curled into a smile, which was not much different from when he first met Yang Xi..
