Arcane Rebirth

As soon as Jia Lan led the girl arbitration team to leave the Kemo University, a thief wearing a double-headed dragon badge hurriedly came up and whispered to him respectfully.

Frowning, Jialan grabbed the excited Ailan and told her that she would lead the team to visit and study at the Kemo Adventure Mercenary Branch. She had other things to deal with and could not lead the team to go there.

Because she just learned that her elemental talent was still "rescued", the girl was still immersed in excitement. Although she was a little surprised that Jia Lan was about to leave temporarily, she didn't take it seriously, but she just nodded obediently.

, smiled sweetly and said that he would definitely bring back the members of the arbitration team safely.

This time, I went to the Adventure Branch for inspection, accompanied by the mercenary guild throughout the whole process. Jia Lan naturally didn't have to worry about the safety of these girls. So after watching the girl arbitration group leave, Jia Lan used messenger technology (a kind of long-distance transmission briefly).

The message's level 0 spell) informed several old mercenaries of the Iguana Tooth to come quickly while asking about the incident.

"…President Clark and Captain Kenmait are also rushing to Fort Doom, and they should have arrived now."

The silver thief respectfully described the incident briefly. Jia Lan frowned. Last night, several hired workers in charge of night shifts in the Castle of Doom died mysteriously, but no traces of struggle or struggle were found at the scene. The face of the deceased was

There is even a smile of happiness and satisfaction on it.

The scene was blocked by the golden double-headed dragon mercenaries on duty, and the deceased was also covered up by the excuse of transfer. It did not affect the operation of the Kolai potion production workshop for the time being, but this situation was too strange, so

People can't help but think of the infamous horror legend of Fort Doom again.

As a spellcaster who studies the essence of things and believes in the truth, Jialan certainly does not believe in any horror legends. However, according to the narrative of the silver thief, the dead workers died on the way to the medicinal warehouse.

However, in that area, the Golden Double-Headed Dragon Mercenary Group arranged at least three or more vigil teams to patrol across the board. The patrol interval would not exceed five minutes, and there was no abnormal sign in advance. No investigation after the incident found any

The suspicious thing is that it is like the night shift workers who died of illness suddenly, but this is obviously impossible.

After blocking the scene, a deputy commander of the Golden Double-Headed Dragon who was stationed in Fort Doom, he immediately sent someone to notify President Clark and Jialan, waiting for them to arrive before handling it.

The four old mercenaries who received the message from Jialan followed Jialan on a carriage that had been waiting outside the gate of Kemo University for a long time, and the group rushed to the Fort Doom.

The current 100,000-ping castle group under the name of the Fort Doom and the surrounding forest land of about 12 million square meters (about 40km2) have been secretly spent 8 million golden towers by Jialan in the name of the "Covale Mystery Group".

Lan's huge sum of money was purchased from the Property Management Office of Kemo University for infrastructure land under the Future Development of Kemo Group.

Therefore, in the name of the Golden Double-Headed Dragon, a large number of employees were hired to level the mountains and build houses, making this barren land a large number of noisy and busy construction sites. Logically speaking, it should be no short of popularity.

According to ordinary people's ideas, ghosts will not appear in places with high popularity (but ghosts usually don't think so). Therefore, the employees who were originally afraid and rejected to work in the Fort Doom area gradually became more and more afraid of the huge number of people.

Let go of my guard.

Now there is a sudden supernatural incident of the strange death of a hired worker. Once exposed, it may be a serious blow to the construction of the Doom Castle. It is estimated that all the hired workers will run away within half a day.

No matter how generous the wages are, they are not as precious as their own life.

From this point of view, the Golden Double-Headed Dragon is an experienced mercenary group. Whether it is the speed of reaction to events or the methods of handling them afterwards, they all seem very skillful and extremely skillful.

Although it is somewhat unfair to the families of those who died, in this era of strict social classes, who would care about the lives and deaths of a few civilians like ants?

Although Jialan, who gradually accepted the memory of the foreign soul in her mind, had a vague resistance, but as the master of the Doom Castle, she could only temporarily keep her reservations about this way of handling it.

The conflict between two different concepts in my mind made Jialan feel that his recent behavior has become a bit weird. As a spellcaster, he actually began to sympathize with a civilian?

In history, in spell confrontation between spell casters, any spell plague was released, and it was normal for civilians to die and one city to die. When did you see spellcasters compensate civilians?

Otherwise, why are the nobles in the secular world so respectful and fearful to the casters? A large-scale killing method like spell plague should not be too much in the mage's magic list! If used in war,

It is definitely a strategic-level map killing effect.

Who should not mess with the wizard? It has become common sense for people in Jialan's era.

Through the huge construction site around the Doom Fortress, the carriage that Jialan and the others rode on the newly built dirt road and entered the Doom Fortress. When the mercenaries guarding the gate saw the silver thief who was responsible for acting as the driver, they immediately pushed him.

The newly replaced thick log city gate was opened, allowing them to go straight to the warehouse group behind the castle group without any obstacles.

Due to the expansion of production scale, the demand for medicinal materials by Kolai's potions has also increased, so several castle buildings were specially cleaned up as medicinal materials warehouses to facilitate the storage of raw materials purchased in large quantities through the channels of the Mercenary Guild.

.

When Jialan and the others arrived, the warehouse area had been martial law, and the medicinal materials were used, and the mercenaries were transported entirely on their behalf. Although the employees felt that the atmosphere was a little strange, they did not think much about it, because the production tasks were getting heavier recently.

, When you are too busy, the free mercenaries will also help you with your work.

Casey, Diff, President Clark of the Mercenary Guild, and Chief Kenmait of the Golden Double-Headed Dragon were all on the scene. The bodies of the dead workers were parked in place and not moved.

"…There were no signs of struggle and struggle at the scene. The distance between the four employees died was five or six meters apart, which means that when the incident happened, they didn't even notice that someone was attacking them... It was very similar to the means of a thief!

”

Seeing Jia Lan arrive, President Clark greeted him and directly talked about the search results of the experienced thieves under his command.

"But there was no trauma on the body, and it was not poisoned after testing, just like... it was like they suddenly lost their lives..."

President Clark can be regarded as an experienced old mercenary, but even he has never encountered such a bizarre thing.

Jia Lan squatted down one by one and looked at the bodies of the four hired workers. She found that they were all leaning back. In addition to their pale and dead faces, they seemed to be asleep, and some of them had their mouths in their mouths.

A smile, some of them had half-open mouths, as if they were still happily talking to their colleagues about something.

This scene looked too strange, and it made people feel cold in their hearts. This can be seen from the faces of the mercenaries guarding the crime scene. Even though they all have silver-level strength, they have such unknown

A strange event is still hard to resist the fear in my heart.

"Although I don't know how these employees died, I doubt this matter will be inseparable from Kim Kwon!"

President Clark, who had no clue about the cause of the death of the employee, frowned and said, "In recent days, the atmosphere in Corland City has been very strange. A large number of neighborhood gangs are as excited as if they have smoked 'Devil Leaf' cigarettes, and at least every night

Hundreds of fights are about to break out…”

"The prison of the City Guard is almost arrested and the members of the neighborhood gangs are blocked! This is so abnormal. Although these neighborhood gangs often fight each other for territory, they are far less frequent and unscrupulous. Someone must be manipulating them behind the scenes.

them!"

President Clark looked at Jia Lan: "If nothing unexpected happens, it is probably the power of the Jinquan Society who is making trouble behind the scenes, but they just don't know what they want to do!? Attack us by force? disrupt the market? Use urban security to force the Civil Affairs Council?"

Jia Lan nodded and shook her head, and began to whisper and release some detection spells around: detecting toxins, detecting secret techniques, detecting alchemy, detecting charm, detecting undead, detecting immortals...

When the "Detection Immortality" spell was released, a strange wave was sensed by Jia Lan, which made his brows frown a little, but he said quietly: "It's not that toxins kill, it's someone from behind.

Attacked them..."

Jia Lan gently turned the head of a hired worker's body, let him face one side, push his loose hair away, pointing to the skin behind his ears and said, "Look here."

Everyone came over and saw two small red spots on the neck of the hired corpse, which were about an inch away from each other, and looked like a swollen bag bitten by a mosquito.

President Clark and others were confused for a moment, but immediately realized that although the current season is not as cold as before, it is still a long time before spring. In the cold weather at night, there should never be mosquitoes!

Jia Lan reached out and took out a bottle of alchemy solvent from her pocket. After pulling out the plug, she gently placed two drops on the wound of the corpse. If it was a living person, these two drops of alchemy solvent would be enough to poison him, but for the corpse

But it doesn't matter.

As soon as the two drops of alchemy solvent fell on the two red spots, the red spots began to emit faint white smoke and even black pus and blood began to flow out, as if corroded by strong acid! (To be continued...
