In the woods, the girl named Fleur was still continuing her training, concentrating the magic power between her hands, and her eyes were tightly closed, completely unaware that anyone was hiding around her.
Under such circumstances, in the grass, Yeye, Xia Lu and Sigmund focused their attention on Luo Zhen.
"Why are you so sure that the will not stop its attack?"
Xia Lu raised this question with great confusion, making Yeye and Sigmund nod.
In everyone's mind, the so-called "Magic Eater" is a random murderer like Jack the Ripper, who doesn't pick a target at all and does whatever he wants.
The last time the opponent made a move against Luo Zhen, he was repelled by Luo Zhen and was almost caught on the spot. So, it is not impossible for the opponent to become fearful, stop showing up, and completely hide his whereabouts.
In this case, why is Luo Zhen so sure that the other party will appear again
In fact, the reason is also very simple.
"Why does the hunt down some ordinary students who are not strong enough and destroy their dolls even though they have the strength of the level?"
Luo Zhen asked such a question without answering.
This made the three people present stunned.
Seeing the performance of the three people, Luo Zhen curled his lips and smiled.
"You must have never considered the issue of motivation, right?"
That's right.
No one has considered what motivation the had to randomly kill some students and destroy their puppets.
When others attack others in the academy, there are reasons such as eradicating competitors or creating grudges, but the "Magic Eater" only attacks those students who are far weaker than themselves, and they hunt them indiscriminately. Obviously not In order to eliminate competitors or make enemies with someone.
So, what is this person’s motivation
"Is it just to enjoy the pleasure of killing?" Luo Zhen shrugged and said, "I don't think so."
If the other party is just a happy murderer, then he can go outside the college and kill some insignificant people. There is no need to attack students with all backgrounds from all over the world in this college, not to mention offending so many big forces. , and also offended the behemoth of the academy.
unless...
"The other party has a reason to carry out the attack in this academy."
Luo Zhen pointed this out.
So, what is the other party’s purpose
"It's very simple." Luo Zhen said: "If you think about it carefully, what will disappear in every attack?"
This problem immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"student!"
This is the answer every night.
Yes.
Every attack by the will cause the student who is a puppet user to disappear.
But, besides that, there is something else that will disappear.
"Does it mean the magic circuits of those automatic dolls?"
Sigmund pondered for a while and then gave this answer.
"That's what happened." Luo Zhen confirmed the two answers and said: "The magic circuits of the students and their puppets will disappear. The former is missing, and the latter is being eaten. This leads to Some speculations can come to light.”
After hearing about the deeds of the "Magic Gnawer", Luo Zhen had many guesses.
One of them is the motivation of "Magic Gnawer".
"If I'm not wrong, the reason why the former disappeared is because the hid the other party."
Luo Zhen explained.
"Disappearance and death are two completely different outcomes. If they are missing, then the sponsors behind these students will think that they cannot handle the extremely difficult courses of the college and run away on their own. If they are dead, then those who have Companies, institutions and even a country's military that are able to become sponsors will definitely get involved and pose a threat to the Magic Eater."
In view of this, the other party needs to hide the person, no matter what method is used.
"And the other party deliberately ate the doll's magic circuit. The reason shouldn't be just because it can satisfy his greed or satisfy his curiosity, right?"
Luo Zhen sneered.
"If my guess is correct, then these magic circuits may be the real purpose of the "Magic Eater"."
Hearing this, Yeye, Xia Lu and Sigmund were all slightly startled.
"The magic circuit is the real purpose of the ?"
How is this certain
Everyone looked at each other and stood up.
Seeing this, Luo Zhen didn't show any impatience at all, he just said this.
"Don't you remember the content of the divination just now?"
On a moonless and lightless night, the teeth of the eater devil gnaw the pearls of the dog to strengthen itself.
When such a divination content comes out, what others notice is the first part, that is, the part where the teeth of the eating devil gnaws the pearl of the dog on a moonless and lightless night.
However, what Luo Zhen noticed was the latter paragraph.
"To strengthen oneself"
Luo Zhen spoke calmly.
"If you add this section and we have determined the target of the opponent's attack, then the content of the divination will become that on a moonless night, an existence named "Magic Gnawer" will come out to attack the pearl-colored Isn’t this a girl’s dog-shaped automaton used to strengthen herself?”
As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions suddenly changed.
Obviously, at this point, everyone already knows what Luo Zhen wants to express.
"According to the divination results of the sun disk, the being named "Magic Eater" wants to attack not the pearl-colored girl, but the girl's dog-shaped automaton."
"The reason for the attack is because it can be used to strengthen myself."
"Then, in all previous attacks, eventually, the automaton's magic circuits will be eaten away."
"With all this information added up, we can easily deduce it, right?"
Luo Zhen's eyes swept over everyone's faces one by one.
"This has some means of becoming stronger through magic circuits."
"What he really wants is not the students, but the magic circuits in the students' automatons."
"Because they can make him or his doll stronger."
This is what Luo Zhen speculated.
"Then why does the other party deliberately want to become stronger?"
Luo Zhen smiled sarcastically.
"Isn't it that you don't hesitate to do this in this academy just to win the night party and finally sit on the throne of the Demon King?"
Therefore, the opponent will definitely not stop attacking before the night party begins.
That's why the other party attacked the students in this academy, because it has the most automatic dolls and the best magic circuits.
"Everyone thinks that the Magic Eater is just a random murderer, but he is not just killing people aimlessly in the academy."
Luo Zhen said this calmly.
"In the final analysis, the other party is doing whatever it takes to achieve their own goals."
That's it.
After hearing Luo Zhen's words, the three people present behaved differently.
Ye Ye bit her lip, her face full of indignation.
Sigmund was silent and finally sighed.
As for Xia Lu, she held her little hand tightly, with anger burning in her eyes.
"Unforgivable..."
Xia Lu gritted her teeth and forced out these words.
"Absolutely unforgivable...!"
Everyone heard this sentence clearly.
