Scepter of Truth

Chapter 46: Simple investigation

Views:

When Victor walked out of the burning shop and returned to the place where he was attacked, a tragic picture appeared in his vision.

On the left side of Victor and the right side of the street, a pit with a diameter of five meters and a depth of about half a person is very conspicuously engraved there. There are traces of violent explosion all around it; from this pit to burning Shops on fire, this short section of the road is densely covered with fist-sized holes left by magic missiles.

"Victor, it's nice to see you intact..."

After seeing Victor, Rosa made a joke: "Do you know? All of this in front of me makes almost me doubt whether you can survive..."

"It's just a fluke!"

Victor recalled the scene of the young mage before his death and the scorched corpse of the middle-aged man who had been burned terribly by the "hellfire", and bursts of nausea immediately came up.

"Oh..."

Victor, who was holding back the feeling of vomiting, closed his mouth tightly, his face looked abnormally pale.

"Try to adapt to this situation."

Rosa patted Victor on the shoulder, "Get used to it! Did you know? After I killed the enemy for the first time, I had a nightmare for a whole week..."

Victor nodded, still closing his mouth tightly without speaking.

"Hey! Victor, are you okay?"

Dean, who hadn't seen him for a long time, suddenly walked out of the mage team dealing with the scene, "This is the first big scene I have seen... Tsk!"

Dean, who wears the badge of the Three Ring Mage on his chest, danced and described what he saw and heard.

Seeing Victor staring at his mage badge, Dean proudly showed off: "I didn't expect it? I actually have the blood of a sorcerer... With the help of the teacher, I slept and was promoted to the third ring mage! "

Suddenly, Dean sniffed vigorously and sniffed around: "Eh? It smells so good! Victor, do you smell it?"

After Dean’s prompt, Victor also noticed bursts of attractive meaty smell...

"Wow!"

Victor, who thought of the source of this smell, couldn't help feeling nauseated, and vomited vomitingly as he clutched his chest.

"You... what's wrong with you? Why are you reacting so strongly?"

Dean touched the back of his head and cast a suspicious look at his mentor.

"Look, that's the source of the fragrance..."

Pointing to the burnt half of the thigh on the side of the pothole, Rosa asked angrily, "Should I use it to taste the taste?"

"Wow!"

There was another hapless guy beside Victor, who accompanied him to throw up.

"Your Excellency Rosa, after preliminary investigation, we can confirm that this was a premeditated assassination against Mr. Victor..."

A Sixth Ring Mage from the Ministry of Internal Affairs reported to Rosa, “Only two bodies were left at the scene, but because the bodies were too badly damaged, we could not determine their identities! However, we can ask the prophecy to ask The first-order mage came to assist..."

"Yes! Find out the identity of the attacker as soon as possible..."

Rosa waved his hand, beckoning him to handle the matter quickly.

"Victor, for the sake of safety... From now on, you'd better reduce or stop all outings!"

Rosa frowned and said: "Due to the recent disputes, Greenland's external defense system, and even the internal defense system of'Skasiti', have had some unnecessary loopholes... For you, This is not a good thing!"

Victor, who was pale, covered his mouth and nodded vigorously.

"Master Rosa, can you come and take a look?"

After hearing the sound, Rosa led Victor and Dean to the ruins of the shop that was almost burnt to white ground.

"You see, the flame on this corpse is very special... It cannot be extinguished by conventional means! We think this is a new type of spell with great lethality..."

Following the direction of the internal affairs mage's finger, Victor saw that the body of the middle-aged man disguised as the shop owner was still burning.

"Frozen Ray."

Rosa's right hand finger emitted a faint blue spell brilliance, hitting the burnt corpse.

The ice layer that was visible to the naked eye and exuding bursts of chill covered it, but the flame that should have been extinguished was still burning stubbornly in the ice.

"Um?"

Rosa calmly glanced at Victor, and said, "Very well! Let me take care of this... You can check around again."

"Yes! Lord Rosa."

After checking the surrounding area again, Rosa confirmed that no one was paying attention here, and cast a spell to completely annihilate the corpse and the flames burning on it.

"Dean, forget everything you just saw... forget everything!"

"Ah? What did I see just now? Haha, I saw the respected Mr. Victor vomiting..."

Dean rolled his eyes and left the incident behind him.

"You kid!" Rosa shook his head helplessly.

After sixty minutes of magical moments, with the efforts of the mage of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, this "battlefield" was completely restored to its original state, and everything was back to normal.

"Unblock! Close the team!"

After Rosa gave the order, she turned her head and said to Victor: "Victor, come with me... Go and meet my father, he has something to say to you."

"Okay, Lord Rosa."

Victor said in a hoarse voice: "There are some things I want to communicate with Lord Grant."

On the way to the Tower of Babel, Dean kept chattering.

"Victor, how did you come up with combining algebra and geometry?"

"Victor, do you know that you have become the idol of the mage apprentice?"

"Victor, do you have any new research results recently?"

"Victor, when did you get promoted to the Second Ring Mage?"

"Victor..."

"Shut up!"

After the unbearable Rosa gave Dean a big brainstorm, the chattering guy finally calmed down with grievances.

"call!"

Victor let go of his clenched fist and gave Dean a hard look.

"Victor..."

Rosa, who was walking in the front, said in a low voice: "I will personally submit the results of this investigation. That kind of unquenchable flame... Don't worry.

"Also, my father is not in a very good mood... If possible, please give him a relief."

"I understand."

Dean touched the back of his head again, his eyes wandering suspiciously between Victor and Rosa, "What are they talking about? Why don't I understand..."

"No more! What will be delicious tonight?"

As soon as his thoughts turned, Dean felt that his saliva was about to flow out again.
