Herot then asked: "Which of you knows Lord Secombe?"

The three people looked at Melis.

Melis said: "Earl Secombe is now the Secretary-General of the Empire's Heavy Industry Committee. The Secome family has a very powerful influence in the empire's heavy industry. It directly controls more than ten mines. Among the empire's state-owned heavy industries, Many officials had ties to the Secombe family.

In fact, Imperial Heavy Industries is a very closed bureaucracy. These aristocratic families often have rich mineral resources in their hands and have their own smelting plants. They used to call themselves the 'Rust Nobles' and produced armor and weapons for the Empire. In the early stages of the empire's transition to industry, the 'Rust Nobles' established the Imperial Heavy Industry Committee, laying the foundation for the empire to enter the industrial age.

It’s just that the ‘Rust Nobles’ are too exclusive and firmly control the Imperial Heavy Industry Committee, and then control all the imperial state-owned heavy industries. The palace had no choice but to turn to support private industry, and the Tomorrow Group rose rapidly because of this. "

After Melis finished speaking, Reinham reminded: "Our Drake family is a farm aristocracy. We used to look down on these poor rust aristocrats at all. Now it's completely reversed. The rust aristocrats have power and wealth. Look at our farm." Nobles are country bumpkins.

The Rusty Nobles are indeed very exclusive, and ordinary nobles cannot enter their circle at all, let alone commoners. If we want to touch Earl Secombe, we must be prepared to make the entire Rust Nobility an enemy. "

Helot still knows something about the Rusty Nobles.

Even Emperor Bradley has no good way to deal with them, and the Tomorrow Group will also spend a lot of money to win over the Rust Nobles.

If the rusty nobles hadn't shown their swords this time, my mother would not have killed Earl Secombe.

Helot said: "Earl Secombe looks very young."

Melis thought for a moment: "If I remember correctly, Earl Secombe should be 56 years old. But looking at him today, he seems to be less than forty years old. He does look very young."

Rineham said: "Ten years ago, when Countess Sekom passed away, my father and I went to express our condolences and met Count Sekom. At that time, he looked much older than he does now. Today I accompany Mr. Couribal I almost didn't recognize him when I saw him."

Herot recalled his observations of Lord Secombe tonight.

With experience in his fifties and sixties, appearance in his thirties, and aristocratic temperament, he has a unique charm. Many female guests at the cocktail party were attracted to him and secretly expressed their jealousy towards their mother.

But Herot always felt that there was a sense of disobedience in Count Secombe.

This "youth" does not belong to him.

"Arrest Lord Secombe!"

Helot's sudden order startled all three of them.

I just said that Earl Secombe is a member of the Rust Nobles, and a powerful one among them. To touch him is to make the entire Rust Nobles an enemy.

Now you don't just touch him, you even arrest him!

Melis asked: "On what charge?"

Helot said: "Catch him first, then find charges!"

Both Reinham and Anthony were sweating on their backs. Although this was the usual style of the Imperial Military Police, it also depended on who the other party was, right?

Even if the Chief of the Imperial Military Police is still in office, he would not dare to arrest Earl Secome casually. Even if His Majesty wants to arrest someone, he must first think of a crime.

Unexpectedly, Melis said: "Then arrest people first!"

Reinham and Anthony looked at each other.

The descendants of the founding dukes were so confident that they did not take an earl seriously at all. The Rust Nobles and the Imperial Heavy Industry Committee are all scum in the eyes of the founding Duke family.

Emperor Bradley placed the head of the Claude family here, and appointed a daughter of the Ice and Snow Duke as his assistant, just for this situation!

The two asked: "How to catch him?"

Herot said: "Anthony went to find out the Earl of Secombe's itinerary, and then find out how many people he brought with him and what their strength was. When we find the weakest guard around him, we all go out to stop him!"

Anthony agreed: "Leave this matter to me. The Public Security Bureau has the regular travel records of important personnel in Covenant City. I just have the authority to check it. I should be able to get Earl Secombe's schedule tomorrow afternoon."

For a high-ranking official like Earl Secombe, the daily itinerary is very similar, so it is not difficult to check.

Helot: "As soon as you get the itinerary, send it here. Sergeant Melis will formulate an ambush plan and implement it when I get back from get off work."

"Yes, team leader!"

"The meeting is over, let's all go back and rest."

The Imperial District of Covenant City.

The powerful Earl of Secombe owns a luxurious courtyard here, and the four-story building is splendid, showing wealth and luxury.

Underground in the small building, there is another mysterious space.

At this time, Earl Secombe was lying on a medical bed, with a blood bag hanging on each side, and fresh blood was being delivered to his body through an infusion set.

At first, Earl Secombe was sleeping quietly, and there was no one in the white room.

Suddenly he opened his eyes, the whites of his eyes were filled with blood, and the blood vessels on his forehead swelled as if they were about to burst. His face showed the ferocity caused by pain, and his throat made a "gurgling" sound. He wanted to shout but could not make a sound.

A group of people in white medical uniforms pushed open the door and rushed in. They did not take any medical equipment, but surrounded Earl Secombe.

They stretched out their hands together and chanted a spell.

Black mist emerged from their palms and penetrated into Earl Sekom's body. Earl Secombe slowly calmed down, the blood color receded from his eyes, and the swollen blood vessels returned to their original state.

Let out a long breath.

Lord Seacombe asked: "Is this the price of immortality, having to suffer the pain of organ rejection every night?"

The medical staff all retreated, leaving only a beautiful woman.

The woman stretched out her hand to scan Earl Secombe's body, using magic power to detect the status of the internal organs.

"My Lord Count...it's just pain! If we hadn't replaced those failing organs for you, you would have gone to see your countess long ago.

Rest assured, the organ rejection has subsided. When this blood is replenished into your body, you can be in your best condition to pursue Ms. Irina. "

"Irina..." Earl Sekom couldn't help but show a sinister look: "That coward Coulibal, Princess Maelubelli scared him away. This is not Northern Xinjiang, nor is it ice and snow. Peak is the Covenant City!

I will go to him at dawn and let him know what the wrath of the rust noble is.

Cough cough cough…”

Lord Seacombe coughed violently.

The woman immediately used magic to stabilize his organs that were experiencing rejection, and warned: "Within three hours, you must calm down your emotions."

Earl Secombe took a long breath: "When will the new organ you promised to find me arrive? I've had enough of this torture. I want a body that truly belongs to me.

You said you could do it! "

"Of course we can do it!" The woman looked down at Earl Secombe: "But the destruction of the Iron Stone Community deprived us of a perfect testing ground. We were about to cultivate a perfect body, but we were burned down! "

Earl Secombe asked angrily: "Who did it?"

"I don't know!" The woman touched Earl Secombe's face and smoothed out the wrinkles: "There are very few people who came out of the Iron Stone Community alive, and the Lord Corpse King blocked the news. But it must have been done by the Imperial Military Police, because at that time The imperial military police sent a signal to summon nearby police officers to come for support.

Does your Excellency know any news? "

"Imperial Military Police? I heard that His Majesty personally established a new department in the Imperial Military Police Headquarters and gave it high privileges. If there is an Imperial Military Police unit that goes alone and you don't know about it in advance, it must be this new department."

"Do you know what this department is called?"

"I don't know! Do you dare to inquire about the news of the Corpse King's blockade...are you not afraid of death?"

"I'm sorry, Lord Seacombe."

"Give me a good massage. I have several important meetings tomorrow!"
