The Truth of Magic

Chapter 464: The real murderer is ahead

Views:

At this moment, Freire, who had the most respected position in the capital city of Oru, carefully looked at Zhao Xu and others from top to bottom. He was a little unbelievable, but he had to believe it.

In fact, even if the mysterious male mage in front of them claimed to be the nephew of a certain giant in Mystra, Freir and his party would not be surprised.

Because the other party's age is really too young.

Generally speaking, the person who can be appointed by the Mage Association to serve as the "president" in a local area is not necessarily the most powerful person in the local area.

But they must be the most trusted by the association, and they are also the best candidates who can consolidate and coordinate the relationship between local mages for the association.

This requires that the candidate for "Guild President" must have sufficient reputation and strength, so many times they are selected from well-connected mages who have been deeply involved in the local area for many years, otherwise it will be impossible to handle various complex situations.

In addition, the president of the local branch of the association has enough "power" in itself, and is also responsible for training and developing new apprentices and delivering talents to Mystra.

Once entrusted to someone else, it is likely to lead to a breakdown in the echelon of mage talents in an entire region.

Therefore, over thousands of years, the Mage Association has long compiled a set of effective talent selection procedures.

Although the Falling Star Town mentioned by the other party was just a small town, Freir knew that it was of great significance that a "Mage Association Branch" had not yet been established as the president in a place.

Other associations occasionally have one or two young talents emerging as presidents.

However, this kind of opening up of new places does not select experienced "old presidents", but selects newcomers, which can be said to be unique in thousands of years.

This is already an exceptional promotion among exceptional promotions.

No matter whether the nephew of the association tycoon wants to do this special case, he can't suppress the pressure from the top.

The Mage Association would rather waste countless local magic material resources than be ambiguous in the selection of the president.

Therefore, Freire simply could not imagine how talented the man in front of him must be and how deep his connections must be to allow the superior Mystra Association headquarters to give such a green light!

"Zhongxia, isn't he the player who successfully entered the crater of the meteorite before, that is, the 'Palace of Eljo'?"

At this time, a player sitting in the guard queue couldn't help but exclaimed.

Suddenly everyone's eyes were fixed on Zhao Xu.

Artifact!

This magical term seemed to add endless charm to the mage wearing a shining star cloak in front of him, making him look like he was glowing.

"No wonder, he is such a strong man?" At this time, the Oru City Guards who led a team to come for reinforcements couldn't help but exclaimed in exclamation.

For them, the biggest event in the near future must be the mysterious sky-dropping explosion that occurred in the Twilight Forest before the big snowstorm.

In particular, the area involved in this big explosion covered a radius of nearly fifty kilometers, as well as the central area where the explosion was most severe. The large crater with a radius of one or two kilometers left behind was the most powerful and largest meteorite rain in the past years.

Coupled with the thick smoke and fog that could not be blown away for many days and the threat of the anti-magic field, this explosion became the "hot news" of the Northern Alliance, and even the ignorant women and children in the countryside heard about it.

Not to mention that many surrounding forces and organizations all communicated with the Northern Alliance and sent teams to visit the explosion area.

If the Palace of Azrael behind had not suddenly mysteriously ascended to heaven, otherwise the guard team leader would have had to guard the explosion area for a few more days.

The Palace of Eldraine, which contains the high-level artifact "Holy Breath", seems to have left the continent of Arthur and returned to the sky, but the aftermath it caused is still rippling.

But at this moment, when the aura of the artifact combined with Zhao Xu in front of him, everyone present suddenly felt that there was no problem with the other party's name as "Guild President".

At the same time, on the night when the "Midsummer" mage ascended to heaven in the Palace of Azrael, he faced the counterattack of many "bandits" who tried to rob him, and it became so reasonable.

Only children of this level of talent can match such a feat.

Several other players present were hesitant to speak. They wanted to ask questions to Zhongxia, who was said to be a fellow player, but they did not dare to speak out due to discipline.

"Don't discuss this matter unreasonably. The top leaders of the Alliance, the Mage Association and the major churches have all sent investigation teams to investigate. Until the final conclusion is made, we can just keep silent." Freir immediately interrupted everyone's speculation and speculation. look.

Then he humbly invited Zhao Xu and others into his wider and more luxurious carriage.

Freyr realized just now that his opportunity was coming!

Zhao Xu, who planned to use the relationship of "Freir", was not polite about this and directly asked all four members of the team to get on the carriage.

"I didn't expect to see you, Mage Zhongxia, here. Your feats in Dusk Forest had spread throughout the Northern Alliance. At that time, the branch presidents were surprised when such a powerful mage came out of the Northern Alliance." After passing a cup of rare hot tea to Zhao Xu, Rael said respectfully.

"Mr. Freire, could it be possible that a friend of yours was involved in the incident that night?" Zhao Xu asked with a smile.

"This is definitely not the case." Freyr waved his hand quickly.

He knew very well that at that time, the name "Zhongxia" popped up like an earth-shattering thing, leaving everyone present at a loss.

Therefore, after the "Palace of El Zhuo" announcement meeting was held, the alliance's senior leaders learned about the thoughts of many underground organizations "with plundering intentions" in that tight time. Under the circumstances, it was natural to go with the flow that night and quietly evacuate the guards.

After all, as long as this "Zhongxia" mage is a real mage, his battery life must be limited.

Once it really fails to catch up, no matter how strong the mage is, he will fall down one day.

Therefore, in that short period of time, the first reaction of the league's top brass was to wait and see.

If the player Zhong Xia died and the artifact was robbed, then the top leaders of the entire Northern Alliance, as a local power, would be the most confident in recovering the artifact.

But no one expected that the Zhongxia Mage would come out and kill all the unnecessary words.

"It's not the right time. After all, the guy who was making a fool of himself didn't know anyone. I just threw fireballs casually and just killed my way out of the encirclement."

Zhao Xu also pretended to be domineering and explained a few words, while constantly scanning the other party with his eyes. It was as if he could see the intention of Commander Tang De from Freire's expression.

It can be said that when Zhao Xu heard the announcement, he clearly analyzed the thoughts of the major hidden evil underground forces and even the top leaders of the Northern Alliance.

That's why after he came out, he was able to kill him so resolutely.

Because he knew very well that once his spell firepower could not be suppressed and the opponent's spell intensity and offensive force caught up, he would only lose.

"But I can take the liberty to ask, Mr. Zhongxia, have you really obtained the artifact 'Holy Breath'?"

Freire is also a veteran. After a few simple exchanges, he immediately saw Zhao Xu's "attitude".

It's just that he has to bring up this topic before the conversation gets too deep. No matter how the other party answers, he can advance or retreat.

And the white dragon Cyrus who had transformed beside him, from the moment Zhao Xu called himself "Zhongxia", had been looking at him with wide eyes the whole time, looking like he was hesitant to speak but couldn't believe it.

He, Cyrus, was born more than three hundred years ago, and one day, unexpectedly, he met Arthur's powerful "connector"

The white dragon Cyrus, who was still a little depressed because of being enslaved and sad about having his life and death controlled by magic, suddenly became full of energy, including his "muscles" that all bulged solidly.

This made Bai Long couldn't help but do a few moves to show off his strong muscles in front of everyone, like a fit man.

Because in his impression, those human strongmen seemed to do this action to show their strength, so his great white dragon, the future Dragon Duke, the Ancient White Dragon Cyrus, naturally had to perform well.

Maybe you can even get a "registration quota" in the Mage Association with this "Mage Zhongxia".

As for the blank stares from everyone in the carriage, Cyrus naturally ignored them.

And Zhao Xu was too lazy to pay attention to the silly Bailong who was doing bodybuilding poses. As long as he didn't take off his pants to scare the girl, he just let him go.

He had seen a lot of this kind of stubbornness in his previous life.

As for the issue of "Frère" at hand, Zhao Xu, who is also an experienced person who is good at dealing with officials, said directly: "Is it possible, Mr. Freyr, that you want to make a deal with me?"

"The person behind your scenes is interested in the Divine Breath?"

"Or do you know its value clearly?"

But Freir immediately faked a few words, and said softly: "That's not true, Master Zhongxia, you should also know my identity."

"Mainly because my brother-in-law Tang De, who is the current leader of the alliance, recently his nephew died due to an attack by a mysterious figure, and his soul was annihilated, so I want to see if the artifact can break through the possibilities and find out the resurrection method, or provide some clues about the enemy."

"So, Mr. Zhongxia, if you have this artifact, we are not seeking a divine artifact like this from you. We just hope that you can lend a hand to help."

"Don't worry, Commander Tang De's nephew, his father's family is also very powerful. It is a long-standing big family in our city of Oru. They and Commander Tang De have paid a generous 'remuneration' to reward the murderer."

"Mr. Zhongxia, if you can use the artifact to help, we will pay a certain percentage of it to you regardless of whether it succeeds or not."

Hearing this, Zhao Xu couldn't help but look a little embarrassed.

Including Vivian, who was standing aside, lowered her head silently.

If Freire, Tang De's brother-in-law, hadn't mentioned it, Zhao Xu would have almost forgotten about it.

Not long ago, when they searched the mutant scorpion's lair, they obtained several of Ernest's mysterious brass treasure chests, which were Antinoya's dowry.

At that time, Zhao Xu encountered a group of cavalry outside the cave entrance, and it was obvious that the other party was also controlling those mutant scorpions. At that time, the two parties were furious, and naturally they couldn't get along.

The result was that Zhao Xu and Vivian killed everyone.

As a result, Freyr in front of him came to ask him, the "murderer", if he had a divine weapon, could he help find the murderer

He really wanted the reward.

But it’s just not easy to get.

Was he going back to frame his enemy Graz'zt

wrong.

Standing behind the leader of Tang De is the demon king. Can he accept this debt

Zhao Xu suddenly felt a little headache.

I have almost finished sorting out the time travel plot in the past two days, and I will resume the 3rd update tomorrow.
