"Your Majesty, please let us know."
Rolando picked up the tea cup and took a sip. "Do you know what caused such a big harm?"
Everyone shook their heads. If they had known it, they might have prepared the same thing, and would not feel confused here.
"Then why didn't you clean up the battlefield carefully?" After Rolando went back to the barrack, he carefully asked about what had happened last night and today. The situation was small-scaled last night, and then it was large-scaled today. During this period, Shawn had taken people to clean up the battlefield, and they might not only have cleaned the battlefield, but also set a trap, which caused a large range of death and injury today.
Everyone looked at each other. They were stunned by the explosion last night. They didn't think of cleaning up the battlefield at all. They just wanted to retreat quickly and stay away from that horrible thing. However, they never thought that if they had carefully cleaned up the battlefield, they would have found some clues.
"Your Majesty, have you sent people to clean the battlefield in order to find clues?"
"Everything will leave some clues after it is done. No matter how thoughtful and cautious Shawn is, it is inevitable that he has missed something. As long as we find some traces, we can solve his mystery," Rolando said coldly.
"Your Majesty." A man walked in quickly. "We have found it."
Rolando's eyes lit up. "Submit it to me."
The guard brought a mud ball to them, which they had found when they were cleaning up the battlefield. Coincidentally, it did not explode, and was found by the Cyan Garment Guards.
Rolando wanted to get it, but was stopped by the leader of the Cyan Garment Guards, Bastian. "Your Majesty, it..."
Rolando pushed Bastian away, took the mud ball and looked at it carefully. "This is Shawn's secret weapon which killed and hurt many people in our army?"
"I suppose so."
"How can a small mud ball cause such a damage?" all people asked in disbelief. They couldn't believe that they were defeated by such mud balls.
"Only this one?" Rolando examined the mud ball carefully. It was rough and smelt strange. There seemed to be carbon, with something odd mixed in it. He could not tell what was in it.
