A "hmm" sound came from the shadow. As the inspector's personal bodyguard, she would only protect her employer's safety at the critical moment. As for the life and death of others, it was not important to her at all.
Cecil and the others looked pale, as if they were frightened by this scene. In fact, apart from not having the means to deal with mental magic, the strength of this team of adventurers was not weak.
But the team lacked leadership, experience and courage.
I just stood there stupidly the whole time, not moving at all.
"Licinius, dead?"
Cecil blinked subconsciously, and for some reason he felt a little gloating.
With a bang…
The wind warlock was thrown to the ground, bruised and battered, unconscious.
In particular, his mouth was full of blood foam and all his teeth had been knocked out, not a single one left.
Even if there was poison hidden in the teeth, it would be impossible to commit suicide.
The officers immediately swarmed over and restrained the big man. They took out special magic-blocking shackles, locked his neck and limbs, and blocked the flow of all magic power.
Prevent prisoners from escaping or passively triggering any suicide curse.
Luciemia, however, was not surprised at all by the arrest of the criminal. Instead, she looked up at the iceberg girl beside her and couldn't help asking, "Your young master's life or death is unknown, aren't you sad?"
Norn tilted his head and asked blankly, "Why are you sad? The master will be fine."
Lucimia was stunned: "Why?"
"The young master is much more cunning than you think. Although he is just an ordinary man, he will not die no matter who dies, so don't worry. He has a lot of life-saving magical tools and even holy relics. Believe it or not, this is what he told me." Norn rarely said a lot of words.
After Li Xini awakened his memory, what he was most worried about was the girl's safety.
So you have to spend money to equip yourself from head to toe.
It's just that Miss Norn has a weird personality and is unwilling to accept the young master's morbid protection with peace of mind.
In order to convince her, Licinius could only claim that he had better equipment to save his life.
For example, a pair of panties engraved with an alchemical matrix costs four hundred gold coins.
After he places the order, he will say it is only worth fourteen pieces.
And his long windbreaker worth three gold coins would be boasted as a high-end product worth eight thousand.
Norn has raised doubts.
Anyway, the question is just one: you, a rude and barbaric woman, know nothing!
Therefore, in Norn's cognition, the young master is also a treasure chest monster who is fully armed.
"Are you serious?"
Lucimia's voice trembled slightly, and a glimmer of hope ignited in her beautiful eyes.
Yes, even though we are ordinary people, we are not allowed to carry magical tools and relics!
At this time, faint footsteps were heard in the ruins.
"Hey, you guys have solved it?"
Licinius came out covered in dust, his clothes were half torn and his body was covered in blood.
In his hand, he was dragging a headless corpse.
Oh shit!
Cecil and his friends were all stunned. This is the power of paid items!
That's the difference.
An ordinary person was attacked by the black sorcerer, but not only was he safe, he also killed the opponent!
Cecil split open directly.
"Master, are you injured?"
Noren walked forward with a stern face, leaned close to his chest to take a closer look, poked here and touched there.
"Don't worry, everything is fine. Thanks to the six thousand gold coins top I bought last time, even a dagger can't penetrate it. It also has a dual alchemical matrix of shockproof and healing. Nothing will happen to you. As for the prisoner, we couldn't leave him alive in a hurry, so we blew him to death with explosives." Li Xini pinched her face.
He has long been accustomed to things like nonsense.
Anyway, this girl is stupid and easy to fool.
"Is it?"
Noren sniffed it carefully and felt that the blood was clearly the smell of the young master.
"Okay, no more questions."
Licinius asked impatiently: "Are there any survivors left?"
Noren raised his chin and pointed at the unconscious body.
Li Xini took a glance and said with relief: "Thank God, I was really afraid that you would kill him with one punch."
When they first came to Roma City from the royal capital, they encountered a group of robbers.
Noren rushed forward and started to attack, and with two punches he blew up more than a dozen people's heads.
Li Xini was shocked at that time and said that you are the other world version of a strong woman!
Suddenly, he noticed the burning gazes coming from the side.
The look in Luciemia's eyes when she looked at him had completely changed. She was thankful but also had a hint of indescribable shyness. She said softly, "Um...thank you for what happened just now."
Licinius shrugged: "It's just a small matter..."
Seeing his nonchalant attitude, Lucimia said seriously, "I will repay you."
Licinius was happy: "Don't think about repaying me, just clean up the scene. We finally arrested a living heretic, and we must get something out of him. It is obvious that this is a gang crime. There is a black magic criminal gang hidden in the city of Roma, which should not be underestimated."
He looked around, confirmed the situation at the scene, and nodded with satisfaction.
Very good, a member of the Dawn, plus three non-staff dark magic users.
It was exactly the same as the result he had predicted in the gray fog.
Although Hanpi Xieshen is very rigid in his work, the results of his divinations are absolutely accurate.
Liz thought she was being clever.
In fact, Master Li Xini even knew exactly how many moles she had on her butt!
If nothing unexpected happens, the real culprit should have been caught.
As for this non-staff member of Dawn, it would be better to hand him over to the Control Bureau for interrogation.
Only by getting solid evidence can they allow them to cause trouble for Dawn.
Lucimia realized the seriousness of the matter and turned to her subordinates and ordered: "Take the prisoner back to the military headquarters for interrogation immediately. I want a conclusion before tonight..."
Snapped!
Licinius chopped her head with his sword and said, "You haven't learned your lesson yet? How was the prisoner assassinated at the military headquarters last time? And why was he brought to the military headquarters this time?"
Luciemia was stunned.
"The traitor in the military has not been found yet. The prison is not safe."
Li Xini said unhappily: "Don't you have your own secret base in the Administration?"
o
Outside the manor of the city lord, knights in silver-white armor were patrolling nearby, as silent and majestic as sculptures in myths and legends. Their sharp eyes could be vaguely seen under their steel masks.
Every step they took was accompanied by the clanging sound of armor rubbing against each other.
The armor and swords reflected the scorching sun, shining brightly.
On a crooked tree in the distance, there was a knight girl sitting, holding her chin with her hand, looking bored.
"It's so boring. I've already arrived in Roma City, but I can't even meet Licinius and Norn. I don't know how they are doing after being apart for so long."
This is a young and handsome female knight, with a rare head of long cherry-colored hair tied up behind her head. There is some melancholy in her beautiful blue eyes, and a hint of childishness in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows. She has a pure and elegant face, and she is bare-faced.
Even though she was wearing armor, you could still see the girl's seductive curves as she began to grow.
"Will they hate me? I should not have accepted the financial support from Madam Valerius. That woman is so evil. She deliberately sowed discord and tried to destroy our relationship! How hateful, how hateful, how hateful!" Fran angrily broke off a branch and gestured in the air.
At this time, a companion came over quickly and said, "Deputy Captain Fran!"
Fran lowered her head in annoyance: "Why are you calling me?"
"There was an accident in the civilian area, and we need to deal with it."
The knight said solemnly: "There is a heretic in the city!"
Fran was stunned: "What does your majesty mean?"
The knight hesitated for a moment: "Your Majesty seems to have encountered something happy, so let us deal with it casually. After that, we can have half a day off..."
Chapter 38 The Envied Norn
Fran knew very well that the Knights of Holy Light were a guard group that served only His Majesty.
Generally speaking, don't interfere in external affairs.
But there are exceptions to everything. In this border city known as the city of sin, there are always emergencies that even the military cannot handle. At that time, the Knights of Holy Light need to take action.
Of course, the prerequisite is that you must obtain His Majesty's permission before you can go out.
Since His Majesty lets them handle it as they please, it shouldn't be a particularly important matter.
But when she arrived at the independent branch of the Bureau of Control and saw two bodies being examined by a forensic doctor and a heretic who had been beaten beyond recognition, she was completely stunned.
"This is too tragic. He has a severe concussion and most of his organs are shattered. There is not a single healthy bone in his body. He was simply killed by an explosion. Was it the kind where gold coins exploded while he was being beaten? Who could be so cruel?" Fran really couldn't bear to look at the interrogation room anymore. It was a bit painful to look at.
The heretic was supposed to be tortured first.
As he was about to die, all they had to do was call a doctor and a pastor.
It took both physical and magical means to save him.
Fran always felt that this sense of violence was inexplicably familiar.
In the following period of time, at least until the prisoner wakes up and is interrogated, she will lead a team to guard the Bureau branch to prevent assassinations by users of black magic from happening again.
Just then, she heard a noise from the next room.
"Sister Jasmine, I have made up my mind." That was the voice of Inspector Lucimia.
Fran had met this inspector once before. She heard that she was the daughter of the Barron family. Unlike her, who were born into a commoner family, she was a top aristocrat who grew up with a silver spoon in her mouth.
It is said that she is also a villainous lady.
"This is your only chance if you still want to get Lady Constance's approval. Once you report the case truthfully in the report, you will only be an assistant in the process of solving the case. Lady Constance will not recognize your ability because of this." Jasmine said lifelessly.
"But I didn't solve this case in the first place, did I?"
Lucimia said, "Sister Jasmine, I seem to have come to understand myself... I don't have the ability to solve cases like my father. My past honors were only due to the convenience of the Bureau of Control."
Jasmine asked, "Is it because of that boy?"
Luciemia said faintly, "Yes, he solved this case all by himself from beginning to end, and he didn't seek help from any other forces. Isn't that enough to prove the point?"
Although external forces were used during the battle, when it comes to reasoning, I have to rely on this person alone.
The innocent and lovely inspector lady is still unaware of the dangers of society.
I didn't even know that there were such things as evil gods in the world.
"Eh?"
Fran listened in the corner and thought that this was indeed a talented person.
I just don't know who the boy they are talking about is.
Lucimia said confidently, "If nothing unexpected happens, I will never be able to surpass my father in my lifetime. But what if I can learn the psychological profiling he talked about? Will there be a chance of turning things around?"
Jasmine was silent for a long time. "So in order to learn how to solve cases from him, you want to give him the Ouroboros? You have to think clearly. Even the Barron family doesn't have many of these holy relics..."
"No matter how good the relic is, it is not as important as life."
Lucimia seemed to have thought of something, and there was a hint of ambiguity in her voice: "And I think the Ouroboros is quite suitable for him."
