Chapter 1122 Targeting The Orion Arm
Paramel walked into the exclusive office in the space station. As soon as the door closed, the originally calm expression on his face instantly became extremely gloomy.
"Tell me, what\'s going on?" Prince Lekas\'s voice sounded in the office, "If only a few people died, I don\'t think there\'s a need to call me over."
"Yes, Your Highness. This is clearly not only a matter of a few people dying."
Paramel replied in a low voice and walked over to sit in front of Prince Lekas. He opened the personal terminal in his hand and a document appeared on the virtual screen.
"This is all the abnormal situations gathered from the beginning of the Hunting Assembly until today. Look."
Prince Lekas narrowed his eyes slightly and read it carefully from beginning to end. His frown deepened.
In the end, he was silent for a moment before suddenly raising his hand and shattering the coffee table in front of him with a furious expression.
"They dare to come here and cause trouble? They\'re simply courting death!"
After venting his anger, Prince Lekas calmed down and asked Paramel, "Did you find any clues?"
"Yes." Paramel operated his personal terminal and displayed another piece of information, "Actually, we\'ve already noticed this situation a few days ago, but there has never been any actual evidence. However, yesterday, we captured three guys and asked them for some information. Look, this group of people is clearly ordered by someone behind them. Moreover… from the information of all sides, I suspect…"
Prince Lekas glanced at Paramel.
"Why don\'t you continue?"
Paramel smiled bitterly and shook his head. "There\'s insufficient evidence. I\'m afraid that revealing my suspicion will cause a very bad effect."
"I\'m the only one here now. What are you afraid of?" Prince Lekas sneered.
Paramel hesitated for a moment before nodding. He continued in a serious voice, "According to the confessions of the three people who were captured, they were hired by someone with the goal of specially killing the young martial artists of the Garden Hunting Assembly. Be it those from other countries or the young martial artists of the Empire, as long as there\'s a chance, they\'ll definitely kill them. According to the price of the people behind them, regardless of whether they killed them or not, as long as more than a thousand young martial artists die after the first stage ends, they\'ll obtain a reward for every additional one."
"Then are they the happiest if all the participants are dead?" Prince Lekas grunted, and his expression became even uglier, "Are they trying to completely destroy this Garden Hunting Assembly?"
"Not only is their goal to destroy this Garden Hunting Assembly, it\'s even more likely to destroy the future of the entire Orion Arm!" Paramel suddenly emphasized, "Your Highness, did I say anything from those three fellows just now?"
"Speak."
"Although we don\'t know who transferred the money to the three people who were captured and we can\'t find anything through this clue, these people\'s actions are not completely without a goal but have a clear goal. According to their confession, the targets they will attack are only those opponents who don\'t have any special marks on them."
"Special mark?" Prince Lekas frowned, "What special mark?"
"Those three people said that the other party did not say it explicitly. They only told them that they would naturally know when they encountered it. However, the three of them expressed that they had never encountered such a situation so far, so they did not know what the special mark was."
Prince Lekas frowned. "Doesn\'t that mean that you didn\'t get anything after asking for a long time?"
"No, Your Highness. Although they did not say, I spent some time comparing the young martial artists who died in the Hunting Assembly these few days to a more detailed statistic. Then, I discovered a phenomenon that had to be noticed. Look…"
Paramel operated his personal terminal again. A form and a star map representing the Milky Way appeared on the virtual screen.
"I\'ve recalculated this form according to the nationalities of the participants who have been confirmed to be dead. Then, I distributed their nationalities according to the Star Field. Do you see anything?"
Prince Lekas\'s gaze instantly locked onto the star map.
In this star map, a red dot represented a dead participant. Then, this red dot would be displayed in the corresponding Star Field according to his nationality.
Therefore, at a glance, he could see that these red dots were scattered throughout the entire Milky Way and were very easy to recognize.
However… in the Orion Arm and the galactic center area connected to it, the red dot representing death was clearly much denser than the other two spiral arms.
Prince Lekas\'s gaze swept past the almost dense red dots on the Orion Arm before looking at the sparse red dots on the other two spiral arms. He narrowed his eyes and was silent for a long time before asking in a low voice, "Are you suspecting that… someone is deliberately targeting the young martial artists of the Orion Arm and our Declan Empire?"
"Yes." Paramel nodded and admitted without any hesitation, "Although there are more young martial artists who belong to the Orion Arm among the young martial artists who came to participate in this Garden Hunting Assembly, the probability of death is still abnormal. Therefore, I suspect that the mastermind behind those three people is targeting the young genius from the Orion Arm."
"So you want to say that… this was done by those lunatics from Erehuana or those unscrupulous merchants from Noctem?" Prince Lekas raised his voice.
"I can\'t say for sure." Paramel lowered his head slightly, "However, since such a situation has happened, I have no choice but to suspect it."
Prince Lekas fell silent again.
After a long silence in the office, Prince Lekas slowly said, "Keep this a secret for now and don\'t publicize it. At the same time, strengthen the monitoring of Planet Ricardo and try to capture more of these guys who risk their lives for money. Remember, before there\'s enough evidence, any suspicion is meaningless."
"Yes." Paramel immediately nodded, but then he revealed a hesitant expression.
"What other questions?" Prince Lekas took in his expression and immediately shouted.
"This… Your Highness." Paramel rubbed his hands as if he was in a dilemma, "Although I can control the situation on the planet with just the satellite monitoring, I don\'t have so many powerful martial artists under me to ensure that no accidents happen again. Therefore, do you think… we should let Supremacy Yamucha and the others move a little?"
Prince Lekas suddenly turned around and stared at Paramel. The light in his eyes immediately made him shiver and his body involuntarily tensed.
Fortunately, Prince Lekas only emitted a trace of his terrifying aura before retracting it and waving at Paramel.
"Go find Supremacy Yamucha and the others for such a thing yourself. If they\'re willing, there\'s no problem. You don\'t have to ask me anymore."
Paramel was immediately overjoyed and agreed.
