Arcane Lord

The arrival of Metril City's Chief Mage Dax and Councilman Gaudit brought the latest information about Paris. The other party imprisoned most of the members of the city council and even prepared to sacrifice the entire city.

Hearing this horrifying news, Ryan almost jumped up anxiously, but now he could not stop it all by himself, so he could only look at the investigators around him with anxious and pleading eyes. They:

"The situation is urgent, please help the innocent people in Metril!"

"Help is definitely a given. After all, we are already involved." As one of the leaders of this investigation team and willing to take responsibility, Doom was the first to respond to Ryan's request.

But then he changed the subject and turned his attention to Dax, "I have a few questions. I would like to ask Master Dax to answer them."

"What question? If I can answer it, I will answer it."

"Just yesterday, a reconnaissance team from the Northland Alliance disappeared in Metril City. Do you know what happened?" Doom asked.

This was originally a question that was intended to be asked to the top management of Metril, but now that Paris has rebelled, the commander of the city guard will most likely not be able to ask the question. Only the chief mage in front of him can ask.

But regarding this question, Dax showed a confused expression, "The Northland Alliance's reconnaissance team? Did the Northland Alliance send another reconnaissance team to Metril?"

"They did not come specifically to Metril, but were passing through. To be more precise, they were preparing to return to Everesca from Metril, but they disappeared."

"I don't know. I haven't heard of any reconnaissance team. Even the arrival of Messenger Ryan only came to me after I escaped from the Silver Spire."

Only then did Dax react belatedly, "Are you a human? Why do humans appear in Metril City? Who are you?"

"We are an investigation team from the Northland Alliance, here to investigate the disappearance of the investigation team that occurred yesterday. This was agreed by Taivi Mansa."

After Doom finished speaking, Ryan nodded affirmatively, and added a little more, "The Crown Prince and the Council attach great importance to this matter, and have notified Metril City in advance to explain the situation. Could it be that you Didn’t receive the message?”

"I swear I didn't receive any relevant information. It must be Paris. He intercepted and even tampered with the summons from the capital, deceiving most of the members of the city council to go to the Silver Spire."

Dax was in a state of excitement and kept cursing Paris, including Councilor Gaudet who followed him and fled out of the Silver Spire.

"That's enough. Swearing now won't help. The key is how to respond!"

Even as the envoy of the crown king and the council, saying such emotional words is completely offensive. After all, regardless of whether Dax is suspected or guilty, he is a high mage.

But now no one cares about Ryan's tone of voice. It is even this decisive attitude that can win the trust of others.

At this moment, Xia Duo also took the initiative to stand up and gave everyone a big comfort:

"Everyone, I have contacted Speaker Badigal of the Sevington Parliament through special communication means. If nothing else happens, he should notify Taivi Mansa of what happened in Metril. Maybe now Support is on the way, what we need to do now is to find out what happened in the city."

In the end, there is no way to hide the matter of contacting the outside world. As Shado said, support may be on the way now, and may even have arrived outside the Metriel Mystery Lock.

Afterwards, only a few pieces of information were needed to know that someone had tipped him off, and the tipping off was not a bad thing. Of course, Badigal would not deliberately hide Chateau's credit.

So it doesn't matter to say it in advance now, it can just boost everyone's morale. Of course, there is no need to say anything about the demon descendant, because it involves the demon descendant's unique magic of erasing traces.

There is no record of this kind of magic in the Northland Alliance at all. Considering that the Demon Intelligence Research Laboratory is already the result of the full exchange of information between various countries, it is unlikely that various countries will hide anything in this regard.

The situation is urgent now. If we talk about demon descendants or something, we will inevitably have to explain and prove it. In fact, there is no way to prove it at all.

As long as Paris can be dealt with now, the follow-up investigation can be carried out slowly.

"You can still contact the outside world in this case?" Some elves showed obvious disbelief, especially Councilor Gaudet who followed Dax and escaped from the Silver Spire.

He also has a lot of research on magic. Although he has not yet achieved the achievement of supreme magic, he is far superior to most ordinary mages. He tried to contact the outside world just after escaping from the Silver Spire, but it didn't work at all.

The essence of the Mystery Lock is to reconstruct the macroscopic Magic Network structure in an area, but a clever Mystery Lock can often have a restrictive effect on the microscopic Magic Network strings.

In layman's terms, any restriction that can be thought of can be restricted. Of course, there is a question of benefit trade-offs.

The entire city of Metril is currently under lockdown, and it is impossible to contact the outside world. If contact can be made, then one can actually leave.

Shado could have ignored the doubts of individual elves, but in order to gain consensus and practice attacking the Silver Spire later, he still explained:

"There is no need for me to lie on this issue, and I can say that I am not the only one here who can contact the outside world. Do you think I am right? Master Dradel!"

The Mage Deladale that Shado mentioned was the investigator from Cormanthor who came here in a puppet body. When Shado called his name, Deladale stood up somewhat unnaturally:

"Lord Shado is right. I do have a way to contact the outside world. I just need to give up my current puppet incarnation and use my real body to spread the news here. But I still can't do it in real time like Lord Shado."

"I believe in Lord Shado."

Originally, there are opinions and teams. The name Shado has a high reputation even among the elves, especially the Ilfarran elves who are more familiar with Netheril.

Due to the current urgent situation, the issue of contacting the outside world was quickly skipped. "We can't control what's happening outside the city for the time being, but we are here in the city. After all, we can't be indifferent and let the situation develop. We must do something."

"Paris is performing a sacrifice ceremony at the Silver Spire. We must disrupt the ceremony." The speaker is the chief mage Dax.

However, Dax is still a suspect, and everyone is hesitant about whether to attack the Silver Spire. However, the more this is the case, the more decisive it is.

Shado, Doom, and Ryan all proposed to attack the Silver Spire, but Dax's participation was not required. Although the other investigators wanted to stop Paris or break through the blockade, they had no idea and could only reluctantly agree.
