"It's you?!" Regnar's eyes were filled with fierceness. Although Balor was not friends with him, from Vera's point of view, Regnar still hoped that he could survive. And now that Alex directly admitted that he had cut off Balor's head, Regnar would naturally be angry.
"Calm down!" Alex said quickly: "I cut off his head, but he was already dead when I found him!"
"How did he die?" Regnar's face was gloomy. When he left Balor, this guy was still wringing his neck and yelling at him! How could he die so easily
"I don't know." Alex shrugged helplessly: "I was ordered by the president to go to Nightsong Forest to observe the result of the duel between the two of you. But when I arrived there, Balor It has become a corpse.”
"Impossible!" Regnar obviously didn't believe it: "I just paralyzed him with poison. In terms of injuries, he was even lighter than me. How could he die like that?"
"Paralyzing poison?" Alex was stunned: "What poison did you use?"
"Red-blooded blue-backed snake venom, plus ghost grass and cartilage flower." Regnar said: "Balor was bitten by a red-blooded blue-backed snake when he was a child, so I concocted a paralyzing poison based on his characteristics. "
"..." Alex looked slightly stunned, then he sighed and said, "That's no wonder..."
"how?"
"If the venom of the red-blooded blue-backed snake is mixed with ghost grass and cartilage flower, it can indeed prepare a very powerful paralyzing poison." Alex explained: "But this poison is very unstable, and it may be fatal!"
"Damn it! These things were not written at all in the notes the teacher gave me!" Regnar was startled. Could it be that his poison really killed Balor by mistake? So what happened to the shadow clone in Pato Town before? Is Balor dead? In an instant, Regnar felt that countless questions were emerging in his mind.
"This is just a very rare case." Alex spread his hands: "According to reports from those lunatics in the guild's alchemy department, there is an extremely low probability that paralysis poison made with red blood and blue back will directly cause death to people. Death. But because this situation is so rare, I don’t think the president wrote it in his notes."
"How is that possible?!" Regnar couldn't believe it. If he said that, didn't he really kill Balor himself? How will he face Vera in the future
"Of course it's impossible!" A hoarse female voice said.
"Teacher!" Regnar shouted out in surprise.
"President?" Alex turned his head in confusion, but did not see Villes at all.
"I mean, even if the chance is very small, it still exists. Why doesn't the teacher write him in?" Regner could only say that he was wrong.
"This... you also know..." Alex began to explain again.
Regnar took advantage of Alex's explanation and took the opportunity to ask Garona: "Teacher, when did you wake up?"
"It's daytime today, right?" Garona said with some uncertainty: "I had just woken up at the time, so my consciousness was still very vague. It wasn't until that Goethe came to find you that I gradually woke up."
"So did you hear the conversation just now?" Regnar asked, "What do you think of this matter?"
"Obviously." Garona said with a bit of pride: "Although I, Garona, am not an alchemist or pharmacist, I think that there are few people in the world who know more about poison making than I do. More. But I have never heard that the venom of the red-blooded blueback snake has lethal properties."
"So you think Uncle Alex is lying?" Regnar asked.
"There is more than 80% chance that he is lying." Garona said: "All his explanations seem very unnatural, so I think he is probably lying."
"Then what is his purpose?" After finally finding a strategist, Regnar would of course make good use of him.
"Idiot, think about it, if Alex killed Balor, would he admit it in front of you so arrogantly?" Garona said disdainfully: "Tch, you humans are better than us at this point. The orcs are so hypocritical!"
"You mean Uncle Alex killed Balor?" Regnar was a little shocked. Balor was also a high-ranking member of the Moon Shadow Thieves Guild. Why did Alex kill him? Was it the order given by Teacher Villeless
"These are just guesses." Garona replied lazily: "And don't forget, the dark shadow in Pato Town, that guy gave me a very similar feeling to Balor."
"Should I ask him about this matter?" Regnar considered, but he quickly rejected the idea: "No, if it is really the guild that wants to kill Balor, tell Alec now Didn’t Si just expose him?”
"Ha! I didn't expect that after a month of seeing each other, my good disciple would still have a brain?" Garona's appreciation was always somewhat sarcastic.
"I'm very smart to begin with! Otherwise, how could I be your disciple?" Regnar said flatteringly.
"Okay, you don't have to worry about Balor. Just check it slowly. Besides, I always feel that Balor is not dead yet." Garona pointed out how to deal with it to Regnar, and then she called He yawned: "Teacher, I'm still a little sleepy. Let's do this for now. When I wake up completely tomorrow, I still have something to give you."
"Yes, teacher, please rest in peace." Regnar said in a bad tone.
"Fuck you!" Garona didn't mean much - she was a dead person to begin with, so being able to rest in peace was a kind of enjoyment.
"I don't blame you for this, and you don't have to blame yourself too much." Alex came over to comfort him with serious words.
"Huh!" Regnar snorted in his heart, but he nodded, indicating that he accepted Alex's statement. Then, he asked: "Then, why did you cut off Balor's head and take it back?"
"Actually, I didn't want to cut off his head." Alex shrugged.
"What's that for?" Regnar asked.
"For..." Alex hesitated before saying, "For the shadow essence in his body..."
"As expected!" Regnar smiled coldly in his heart again. Maybe Balor was already dead when Alex arrived, or maybe Alex killed him. But no matter what the process is, there is no doubt that the Moon Shadow Thieves Guild has its eyes on Balor's shadow essence.
The power of those with attribute abilities is ultimately a temptation to others. Since the orcs can rely on this shamanic secret technique to inherit this power, can't human magic do the same? I'm afraid every alchemist will have this idea. The essence of various attribute ability users is what they need for research and inheritance.
It seems that the Moon Shadow Thieves Guild is not uninterested in attribute ability users!
Therefore, as an attribute ability user, Regnar was more wary of his own guild. The guild will target Balor, so there is no guarantee that it will not use its own brains.
But for now, Villes treats himself pretty well. Therefore, Regnar was only careful and did not regard the Moon Shadow Thieves Guild as an enemy. Because no matter what, it was the place where Annelotte grew up, and the place where she was taken in when she was desperate.
"So, that piece of shadow essence?" Regnar adjusted his mood and asked.
"Of course I'll leave it to the guild." Alex smiled: "Can I still keep it for myself?"
"Okay." Regnar then asked, "If that's what happened, why do you say I cut off his head and sent him back?"
"This is for your next consideration." Alex spread his hands: "Look, does it sound a bit arrogant and cold when I say this? Including the records I spread about you before, These are just to build momentum for you so that you can have a good reputation among the people and the military intelligence department. "
"You..." Regnar glared at Alex helplessly.
Then the two people talked about MI, Kordak and Snow. It wasn't until midnight that the two finally finished the conversation.
"If nothing happens, I will go back. There are people waiting for me over there." Regnar stood up.
"Okay." Alex nodded: "If you are ready in two days, come and find me."
"I will." Regnar waved his hand: "Then I'm leaving, uncle."
Alex looked at Regner's back and finally couldn't help but said: "Xiao Lei!"
"Huh?" Regnar stopped.
"Actually speaking, I watched Balor grow up." Alex sighed and said, "Whether you believe it or not, I am actually very sad that he died."
"Really?" Regnar smiled noncommittally, then turned and left.
"You don't believe the truth or lies." Alex murmured to himself with a wry smile after Regnar left.
Yes, he killed Balor. He personally inserted his sword into Balor's heart. On the one hand, it's because Balor wants to leave the Moon Shadow Thieves Guild; on the other hand, it's because of Balor's shadow essence.
Although he didn't know what the president was going to do, Villeless had emphasized it before Alex left. If Balor is still willing to serve the guild, then everything is easy to say. If he doesn't want to, then regardless of whether Balor is dead or alive, his shadow essence must belong to the guild.
Therefore, no matter how deep his feelings for Balor are. He eventually killed him and cut off Balor's head, bringing it back to the guild to extract the Shadow Essence. According to research, the essence of all attribute ability users is concentrated in the head.
But even now, Alex still can't forget Balor's expression before he died. He seemed to have a smile on his face, was he laughing at himself
