What a waste of natural resources!
The demon who called himself Misty stood beside Claire and sighed as he looked at the boy who was in pain. It was obvious that the boy's body could not withstand the impact of the power contained in this gem. Even if it was only observed with the naked eye, Mi Sidi could see that all the muscles in Claire's body were tense under the impact of the power of the gem. The whole brain was almost smoking under the overload and high-speed operation. Some capillaries in the body began to rupture and cause nosebleeds. It was a sign that if Claire continued to use the power of the gem desperately, his body would be twisted like a rag.
If a more powerful person uses this gem, such as a high-level mage, a mentally stronger elf, or a physically strong orc, they will be able to use the gem for a longer period of time and stimulate more power in the gem. , but the holder of the gem is a human being, an underage human being who has not grown up enough either mentally or physically to control this great power.
Perhaps┉┉even I can't control this power that represents the origin of the world.
Misty is eager to gain insight into the existence mode of this gem, but her cherishment of life overwhelms her desire for power. The more powerful the existence is in front of this gem, the more terrifying power it can feel, creation and destruction. They are all integrated into one and dependent on each other. Once the power of the devil touches it, it will be purified and destroyed immediately, and if the gods touch it, it will be defiled and destroyed in an instant. On the contrary, mortals with low power can master this power without any taboos, but their bodies cannot withstand the impact of this power, and they are destined to be unable to activate all the power in the gem.
It's almost as if it was done deliberately, or this power has already been destined to belong to a certain existence!
Although this gem cannot be used by herself, Misty also had the idea of letting her followers sneak into the city to seize the gem. She cannot use it, but her followers are also mortals and must still be able to use the power of the gem. , and compared to an immature child, his followers are far better than Claire, both spiritually and physically, and far better than this young, cowardly and ignorant child.
However, it is precisely because of Claire's youth and ignorance that Misty can safely make a contract with him and let this gem containing great power be in his hands. Otherwise, once her followers have mastered a huge power, It is inevitable that power will not betray itself. Everyone's selfish desires are powerful. The reason why believers are willing to believe in themselves is not only to be deceived, but also to satisfy their own shortcomings and selfish desires. It should be able to satisfy their shortcomings and selfish desires. After the power appears, who can guarantee that they will not abandon themselves.
Moreover, the power of gems is extremely powerful and closely related to the original power of the world. Even with the use of spells or even mantra contracts, any constraints imposed on them can be eliminated with the help of the power of this gem. There is no absolutely safe and effective method. Bind the holder of the gem!
What Misty must do now is to restrain the holder of this gem, at least until he finds a better person to control or achieves his own goal, so that he can use the power of the gem for himself.
And now observing Claire, understanding this child's character and desires and letting him dare to use her for her own good, Misty does not think it is a difficult thing, let alone looking around in this fallen city full of negative emotions. In a small room, Misty easily sniffed out the strong negative emotions emanating from Claire, which were emotions called hatred and revenge. Since this child was learning magic and using the power of gems to grow at such a young age, He became a level 7 mage when he was young. In the eyes of mortals, this is a terrifying talent that can make people amazed, and this child should also know very well how powerful the gem in his hand is!
He should understand that as long as he wants, he can leave this city, leave this city that is full of hostility to him, and then let himself thrive in any country and anywhere, surrounded by countless wealth and power, in this world There are many nobles who are eager for power and are willing to marry powerful magicians and warriors. Even the royal family members of some countries marry young and beautiful princesses who are old enough to be their grandfathers in order to win over a powerful magician. It's common for old people to be young, not to mention that Claire is still so young and her potential is limitless.
In addition to wealth and power, it is not impossible to stand at the pinnacle of mortal power or even step into a transcendent existence!
But this child chose to stay in this city, abandoning all glory and wealth to hide in the dark underground waterways, living with rats and bugs all day long.
Regardless of everything because of hatred!
Misty showed a slight smile and flipped through the books Claire put on the table. Although hatred and revenge are the beliefs that support him to continue moving forward on this thorny road, if he wants to thoroughly implement this belief, then this It is not enough for the child to be depraved. Only by completely degenerating and giving up the bottom line of human behavior can this revenge be successful!
The devil from the abyss injects another dose of poison into Claire, who is already in the limelight!
Just as the demons of the abyss gradually invaded the free city, the arrest order was issued to the security team, hundreds of elite personnel were deployed, and the mages blessed everyone with the 'Eye of True Sight' spell resistance. "Anti-magic detection", "Magic Trap Prediction" and other magics. The sea blue knight Gale from the garrison also led four high knights to come to support, and there were also several high-level mages from the legal institution to help out. The scope of this arrest operation is simply unprecedented. Even the intelligence personnel who arrested the Holy Capital before did not mobilize so many high-end combat forces.
Although the real appearance can be described as luxurious, the people responsible for arresting have their own ideas. Seablue Knight Gale is a strong and strong warrior and decisive in killing. For him, if the person being arrested dares to resist, he will directly kill him with a sword. It was all done by killing him, but the mages led by Farrakent had a tough attitude and insisted on capturing the opponent alive.
Investigator Ragavan felt a headache when he saw the two sides arguing endlessly when the arrest was about to begin. However, neither the Sea Blue Knight Gale nor the old mage Farrakent was the target of Ragavan's control. One side represented the three Among the giants, the great slave merchant Felibus represented the legal merchant Eunogia, so Ragavan had no choice but to stay out of the matter as much as possible to prevent these gods from fighting and himself, a mortal, suffer.
"Mr. Ragavan, as the investigating officer, don't you think that a person who has committed such a heinous crime should not be killed on the spot?" However, Gale's question made Ragavan, who originally wanted to stand beside him, frown. Got involved.
"Stupid~ You fools, don't you understand the value of that kind of legal technology? The losses suffered in the free city are not worth mentioning at all. The technology and knowledge he mastered are priceless treasures." The mages of the legal institution He also shouted without giving in.
Forced to have no choice, Ragavan had no choice but to stand between the two sides and try to smooth things over: "Everyone, please be quiet and don't start fighting among yourself at this time."
"Raghavan, as the investigator of the security team, you are responsible for this arrest operation. How do you think you should decide?"
damn it!
Seeing Gale's unceremonious question, Ragavan sighed and thought for a moment before replying: "That's my opinion┉┉To be honest, I still hope to capture the opponent alive if possible."
Suddenly, the face of the Sea Blue Knight, who was over six years old and had gray hair and beard, became gloomy, while the mages all smiled at Ragavan.
"Please forgive me, Mr. Gale. After all, the criminal's behavior this time was too weird. We need to figure out how he managed to escape so many protective circles and commit so many cases. Otherwise, if we kill him all at once, we need to find out how he committed so many crimes." The next criminal with the same abilities will be even more difficult for us to capture."
"That's right! You guys who have trained your brains into muscles don't even think about it. If you don't figure out how the other party sneaked into the free city, then there must be the next person to commit the crime."
Looking at the Seablue Knight with a bad expression, Ragavan lowered his voice and continued to explain before the other party got angry: "Of course I have also considered the pressure you are carrying, Sir Knight. To tell you the truth, the entire security team is also burdened with a huge pressure. Pressure, this arrest operation is imperative. If the other party escapes once, it will be very difficult for us to catch the other party next time. So if the other party tries to resist during the arrest, Mr. Gale, you have the right Do whatever you have to do.”
"Huh~ That's it. I'm not an unreasonable person. If possible, I would like to capture the other party in one fell swoop." Gale sweated coldly and then stopped arguing with the mages and went aside.
Just when Ragavan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, a staff member gave Ragavan a document. That was the news sent back by the detective responsible for monitoring the waterway today. The suspect was no longer there after entering the underground waterway yesterday. It was found that he showed signs of going out, including that the suspect was not found in the entire lower area where the suspect was active. There is a high possibility that the suspect is still hiding in the waterway.
No outing!
Ragavan quickly analyzed the possibilities of all the actions the opponent would take, including resting in the hiding place, making magic weapons for destruction, planning attack plans, the time for eating, the possible time for sleeping, and countless possibilities from Ragavan A flash passed through Vin's mind, while Ragavan tried his best to choose the most probable situation for the next step of calculation.
The possibility that the other party is still in the hiding place is indeed very high. I don’t know if he will go out to carry out a new attack tonight. Of course, he may also choose to rest and sleep. What I want to do is to find the time when the other party is most relaxed. When launching a surprise attack, you must not alert the opponent and let him escape. Once the opponent escapes, he has the ability to evade detection by any magic circle. It will be extremely difficult to find him next time.
"Continue to maintain surveillance and keep all operational members in a state of silence. We must not alert the enemy at this time!"
After some thought Raghavan decided to hold off for a few hours. (~^~)
