"Master, is your lord very busy recently?" King Nanyue asked.

Ailette frowned when he heard this. He had made it clear that Link had something to do recently, but the king seemed in a trance, out of his mind. This is the third time he has brought up the topic of Link, and he seems to particularly hope that Link can come to the South Moon Kingdom.

"Your Majesty, our lord has been paying attention to the situation in the northern war recently. If you encounter any difficulties, please tell me directly, and I will try my best to help you. If I can't, I will definitely convey it to you." At the end, Ailette deliberately emphasized his tone.

"Oh, that's it, that's good, that's good, I don't have any troubles now." King Nanyue smiled awkwardly, and after being silent for a while, he said: "Ah, don't mention this, Mr. Ellette .You came all the way here, you must be tired, so I won't bother you any more."

With that said, he got up and wanted to leave.

Ailette became more and more strange in his heart, but he stood up calmly, and sent Nanyue Kingdom out of the Magic Academy all the way.

When the king and his party were far away, he turned to look at the person in charge of the Field Magic Mission, and asked in a low voice, "Amir, has there been any strange news from the palace recently?"

He felt that the king's family was very abnormal.

Amir is a level 5 magician. He is in his 30s. He is small and looks dull, but this is just his appearance. In fact, he is a very shrewd person. human reason.

He glanced left and right, and seeing a few people from the Glitter Academy of Magic standing around, he said, "Master, everything in the palace is normal, and I haven't heard of anything strange."

He spoke at a normal volume, but as he spoke, he gave Elette a slight wink, indicating that he had news that he had to report in private.

Ailette was stunned for a moment, and he also turned his head to take a closer look at the magicians of the South Moon Kingdom. At first glance, they seemed to be doing their own business, but if you look closely, you can find that they are paying attention to them intentionally or unintentionally. Among them, there was a young magician who moved most obviously, frequently looking towards them.

Things are going wrong.

Ailette is also a quick-witted person. He yawned, patted his forehead, and showed a trace of sleepiness on his face: "It's fine, I'm really tired, so I'm going to rest now."

After finishing speaking, he stretched out his hand and patted Amir's shoulder lightly: "Where is the yard where we rest, take me there."

Amir nodded: "My lord, please follow me."

He turned around and walked towards a garden villa in the southeast corner of the Magic Academy. This villa was very large, with more than 20 rooms in it. All the magicians on Field's mission this time lived here.

After entering the garden of the villa, Amir immediately took out his wand, and with a slight movement of the magic power, he cast a level 5 mysterious magic: soul fog.

A circle of faint mist emanated from his wand, and quickly expanded, turning into a faint cloud of water vapor, covering the entire villa.

Then Amir continued to walk, and when he entered the villa, he went to a small room on the second floor of the villa, and he cast a level 4 shielding enchantment.

After doing this, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Master, the situation is very strange now."

His previous series of actions had alerted Ailette, and he asked, "Why are there so many enchantments? Is there anyone else who is specifically spying on our every move?"

Amir showed confusion on his face, shook his head and said: "I don't know if anyone is peeping, but in the past half a month, several times, I felt something was wrong when I was sleeping, it seemed that someone was hiding in the dark Looking at me. I searched quietly, but I couldn't find the peeping person. To be honest, I couldn't bear it anymore, and I had nightmares for several days."

Ai Laite carefully looked at Amir's expression, and saw that there were faint dark circles under his eyes, the whites of his eyes were also filled with light blood, and his face was still slightly blue, which was indeed exhausted.

He felt that the situation was a bit serious. After thinking for a while, he turned his head to look at the shielding barriers around him, and asked, "Are these barriers effective?"

Amir suddenly shook his head and smiled wryly: "I don't know, maybe it's useful, maybe it's just a psychological comfort."

Ellette frowned slightly. After thinking about it, he also took out his own wand. His wand is not simple. It was transformed from Link's Burning Wrath, and it is now called the Wand of Sunfury.

The whole body of the wand is like a crystal, and at the same time exudes a light golden flame like sunlight. When the power of Ailette's sunlight pours into the wand, the flame on the wand suddenly increases several times, and the whole room is dyed with a layer of light gold. .

"Sun Barrier!" He shouted in a low voice.

Sun enchantment

Level 7 Sunshine Magic

Energy Consumption: 2000

Description: Use the power of sunlight to open an enchantment that shields external perception. During the process of opening the enchantment, all alien forces in the environment will be dispelled.

(Note: The sun shines on the world.)

A pale golden ball of light spread from the tip of the wand, and the golden torrent washed over everything around. There were a few soft 'hissing' sounds, and there was indeed something in the corner of the room. It was a secret detection magic, very hidden. But under the influence of the power of the sun, they are all invisible.

Half a second later, the enchantment was completed, and the walls of the room were filled with a layer of faint golden light, as if coated with a layer of pale golden crystals.

"Okay, no one should be able to hear us now. Tell me what you know, but be quick, and it's best to finish it within three minutes." While speaking, the power consumed by Ailette began to recover quickly .

He is also very confident in this magic, because Link also participated in the development of this magic, which is specially customized for the power of the sun. After the magic was completed, Link personally assured that within five minutes after the magic was cast, it would be extremely difficult for even legendary experts to see what happened in the barrier.

Amir was very shocked, he had never seen such power, but time was short, he concealed his surprise, and said quickly: "Half a month ago, there were rumors in the palace that the king, queen, princess, prince, etc. Two members of the royal family got a strange illness together. The illness was not serious, and it didn't take long. They recovered within a few days, and there was no abnormality at all. But soon after, some attendants reported that the king's temperament seemed to have changed. Like a person."

"A different person? For the better or for the worse?" Ailette frowned. Before coming, Link told him about the parasitism of the Void Spirit. Now that he heard about it, he instinctively suspected that it was the Void Spirit.

Amir shook his head: "I don't know. In the past half a month, the king hasn't received us very much. We don't know much about the affairs in the palace. The reason why I sent a message to the lord is not because of the king's business." .”

"Oh, you said." Ailette felt that the situation in Moon City was a little weird.

"Just three hours ago, there was a level 5 court magician who went crazy. He released a Pyroblast in the palace, blowing up a hall and killing several warriors and maids. The court magician then died. He was controlled, without any trial, and executed on the spot. What's more frightening is that the specific details of this news were immediately suppressed, no matter how I inquired, it was useless... I think something is very wrong, I am afraid that the Nanyue royal family will Something big happened."

"Is that so..." Ailette fell into deep thought. He looked at Amir beside him, who seemed nervous and a little scared. It is estimated that this incident gave him a lot of stimulation.

Magicians have always been noble and have great effects. All countries treat them very politely. Even if they are to be executed, it is a heinous crime, and they will make a fair trial, so that all magicians are convinced, and then they will do it. Like this time, Just like killing a chicken on the spot, it rarely happens.

But there are too few details about this matter, and Ailette couldn't figure it out. He thought for a while and asked again: "The people in the Academy of Magic seem to be very wary of us. What's going on?"

Magicians have always been independent-minded. In the field of magicians, they don't pay much attention to the secular government of the kingdom, and generally only recognize the level of magic. And with Link's great reputation as a legendary magician, he shouldn't be so feared here, right

Amir sighed: "So many things have happened in the kingdom recently, there is a faint rumor circulating in Moon Wheel City, saying that we brought bad luck to Moon Wheel City... Of course, this is just a trivial matter, the real reason may be related to the dean of the Magic Academy a few days ago It is related to the illness of the Earl of Andorra. The Earl also fell ill, and after recovering from the illness, I obviously felt that we were under surveillance."

"Another illness?" Ailette was surprised when he heard that, if these sick people were all parasitized by ethereal spirits... hiss~ he felt like walking into a wolf's den.

But he quickly forced himself to calm down and began to think about countermeasures. After much deliberation, Ellette was going to visit the dean of Glint Academy of Magic, and he wanted to see if there was really something wrong with the dean.

"Okay, you all stay vigilant now, I'm going to visit the Earl of Andorra now." He said, he met him just now, and felt that the dean was a little silent. Now that he thinks about it, this behavior is really a bit wrong.

Amir asked: "Master, do you want me to accompany you? There is also a care for each other."

"No need." Ailette shook his head: "He is only a level 6 magician, and I can handle it."

After finishing speaking, Ailette put away the enchantment, did not rest, turned around and walked out of the garden villa. Outside the villa, he walked along the square for a while, and then turned around a corner. Just after turning around, he saw A magician from Glint School of Magic came out from a hidden corner and blocked his way.

This magician looked very familiar, he seemed to be the guy who paid special attention to his conversation with Amir just now, and Ellette remembered that his name was Fleming.

When he got close, Fleming suddenly said, "Master, I have something to tell you."

"You also have something to say? How do you say it?" Ailette was a little strange.

Fleming looked around for a while, then lowered his voice and said, "You have to be careful with that Amir, he's not normal recently, there are rumors that he has secret contact with the robbers outside the city. I once saw him with some Strange strangers come and go, I told the dean, the dean still doesn't believe me, but I think I have to remind you."

Fleming is a young man, only in his 20s, and his magic power is only at level 1. When he spoke, his eyes were still looking around, very vigilant, as if he was afraid that a third party would hear this. He really doesn't look like a liar.

"..." Ailette became more and more confused.

He had only been in Nanyue Kingdom for less than two hours, and he felt that his surroundings were covered with mist, and he didn't know who he should trust. Amir and Fleming, who is lying, or everyone is lying.

After much deliberation, Ailette still couldn't distinguish the truth from the falsehood of each statement, so he could only stick to his original idea and investigate the dean of the college.
