Constructing-Style Wizard

Chapter 97

Four days have passed since the fall of Colabo's Legion.

This morning.

Somewhere in the border of misery, inside MI2's secret outpost.

Merster wore a silver mask and a black hood, covering himself tightly without revealing any skin, and not even hair appeared on the brim of his hat.

He sat upright behind the desk, arms bent, elbows resting on the arms of the chair.

His ten fingers crossed in front of him, forming a triangular mountain peak.

"Cavador, three days ago, you submitted an investigation report to me. You said in the report that the murderer who killed Kai'Sa was most likely an imperial traitor named Yugo. He was the one who manipulated the assassination of the undead. Kasha..."

Master paused for two seconds:

"The emperor fired the person who was sitting in my position, and let me command you instead. This is a move to change MI2, Kavado. So your previous working method, you have to Adjustments have been made. What I want is the truth of the matter you have investigated, not a false lie that you think you can use to make a deal...

"Now, Calvado, tell me. After I denied your first investigation results, what kind of investigation report did you bring?"

Lieutenant Cavador stood by the desk, took off his hat, held it in his hand, and placed it in front of his abdomen, speaking heavily.

"I'm sorry, sir. I was negligent last time. This time I brought a new investigation report.

"According to my investigation, Kai'Sa's death is very strange. I originally thought that the murderer was the undead of the Necromancer sect or the traitor named Yugo, but as the investigation deepened, I found that something was wrong."

"Well, that's right. Believe in the evidence instead of unrealistic assumptions. Continue." Merst nodded his chin invisibly.

"I found the vehicle driven by Kai'Sa in the secret underground passage. All the supplies in the car are there, including the effective combat medicine and the tobacco that the imperial soldiers love most. I walked through the door opening of the secret underground passage and came to Next to the underground river, I saw a battle scene. At that time, I thought that the traces of the battle on the scene were left by the undead attacking Kai’Sa. At that time, I preliminarily judged that the murderer who killed Kai’Sa was a self-explosive skeleton soldier. But the military situation The test reports of the three places negate this speculation."

Lieutenant Kavado took out a stack of paper documents and put them in front of the officer:

"After inspection, the bone fragments and flesh moss stuck in the crevices of the stones are obviously abnormal. The bone fragments are indeed left by the structure of the undead, but there are bullet marks left by machine gun bullets on them. Kai'Sa's team did not carry light Machine guns. Besides, minced meat is not human body parts, but pork, to be precise, pork in a pork can."

"So someone deliberately faked the crime scene, right?"

"Yes, sir."

"Look, Kavado, aren't we getting closer to the truth? Then, who is the person who forged the scene?" Master asked.

"Sir, I found some important clues, but to be honest, I'm getting more and more confused."

Lieutenant Cavador opened the briefcase, took out documents and placed them on the desk:

"After I entered the fortress of the Kolabo Legion, I used a secret order to connect with the spies in the Legion and obtained important information from the other party. First of all, Yogg, who guards the underground morgue and incinerator, was polluted by the Necromancer sect. Taboo violated.

"In his dormitory, he set up a ritual array for summoning walking corpses, and desecrated nearly seventy corpses. Regarding the source of the pattern of the array, the origin of the original death stone that supplies energy to the array, etc., I have already learned The preliminary investigation results are all on the file."

Master didn't move his hands, keeping his fingers crossed.

He looked at the desk. The documents on the desk floated in front of him automatically without wind, and the pages were slowly flipped.

Facing this scene, Kavado felt tremors and envy in his eyes.

Merster is a fast reader. Within half a minute, he finished reading dozens of pages of the report.

Lieutenant Kavado introduced:

"The people who provided Yogg with the knowledge of the pattern of the circle and the original stone of death are the spies of the death society. Their disguised identity is the guard of the steam train. Now they have been deprived of their status as guards and sent to the legion at the mountain pass as criminal soldiers. went.

"These spies transported criminal soldiers for the legion all the year round. They hid the death stone, books recording death magic, potions and props needed to learn death magic, etc., in the bodies of a pair of criminal soldiers brothers.

"After the two corpses were sent to the underground morgue, Yuge obtained the forbidden knowledge in the corpses. He used the corpses in the morgue to practice the skill of suturing the corpses. He also prayed to the important figures of the Death Society , and under the bewitchment of the other party, set about arranging a ritual circle to summon the walking corpse.

"We should have discovered Yogg's abnormality earlier. But Yogg's skin disease is too confusing. His white skin just conceals the external manifestations of being corroded by death energy. I guess, this is death. The main reason why he would be chosen as a spy within the Legion."

After reading the document, Master raised his finger lightly, motioning for Kavado to continue.

"Sir, we simulated the range of influence of Yogg's summoning circle.

"According to calculations, the three basement floors to the three ground floors of the castle are all within the range of influence of the magic circle.

"We repeatedly confirmed and came to a conclusion. That is, although the summoning circle arranged by Yogg can affect the third underground floor of the castle, it is some distance away from the scene where Kai'Sa was killed.

"If Yogg wants to send his dead men to forge the scene or attack Kai'Sa, he has to lead the team around half of the fortress and enter the ground from the steam boiler room. This is impossible. Because many people saw him near the castle that night. Our informants in the fort can also prove that Yogg has always stayed on the ground and never went underground.

"After I realized that my investigation was in the wrong direction, I immediately started looking for new clues. I soon received new information from the army cleaning up the ruins of the fortress."

Cavaldo put another document on the desktop and continued:

"On the night when the fortress of Colabo's Legion fell, about 20 soldiers who made mistakes were imprisoned in the confinement room on the third floor of the basement. All these soldiers died tragically in the fire in the guard's duty room, but one escaped, that is criminal soldier 888 No., Leno Jarvis.

"The army that cleared the ruins of the castle confirmed that they did not see the body of Leno Jarvis. The person who confirmed this was Sergeant Mars, Leno Jarvis's immediate superior.

"It is worth noting that the door connecting the guard duty room to the stairwell was locked from the inside. The fire that burned the soldiers was only confined to the inside of the guard room. These signs all indicate that someone helped Leno Jarvis Escaped from the brig and faked the tragic death of Leno Jarvis.

"It was only then that I remembered that the scope of influence of Yogg's summoning circle includes the confinement room on the third floor underground..."

Master raised his hand and interrupted Kavado's speech:

"You mean, after the soldiers in the confinement room were killed, Yogg transformed them into walking corpses and helped Leno Jarvis escape from the third underground floor. Then, Yogg manipulated the walking corpses to lock the guard duty room from inside door, and set up a fire to make it look like Leno Jarvis died tragically, right? So you think Leno Jarvis is Yogg's accomplice. The two of them murdered Kai'Sa together?"

"No, sir. I think the murderer is Leno Jarvis. Because Yogg only showed the extraordinary ability to command walking corpses from the beginning to the end, our informant did not see him commanding skeleton soldiers. And in the case of Kai'Sa's murder At the discovery site, I only saw the remains of skeleton soldiers, and the undead who attacked the steam boiler room were only skeleton soldiers."

Lieutenant Kavado took a deep breath:

"So, I finally came to the conclusion that Leno Jarvis was the murderer. But...but, I couldn't figure it out. How did he command the skeleton soldiers. I asked everyone who had contact with Leno Jarvis, Everyone reported that there were no traces of death energy erosion on his body. His complexion was normal, his speech was full of energy, and there was no sign of weakness or shortness of breath."

Merster pondered for a while and asked:

"Cavador, let's assume that the murderer is Li Nuo Jarvis. The feud between him and Kaisha is his motive. But the difference in strength between the two is too big? I have observed Li Nuo Jarvis Si, he is just an ordinary person who has just been injected with a strengthening potion, and there is no energy fluctuation at all. Have you ever thought about how he can kill the opponent before Kaisha can react? Also, have you Do you think that the person who forged the scene of the underground river crime was also Leno Jarvis?"

"Yes, sir. I even suspect that the team of skeleton soldiers who attacked the underground boiler room was written by Leno Jarvis, but" Lieutenant Kavado opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

Merster finished speaking for the other party:

"But the absence of contamination from death in Leno Jarvis confuses you so much that you still find it hard to believe your own speculations, doesn't it?"

"Yes, sir. Anyone who comes into contact with the forbidden power will show very obvious external characteristics. Yogg also has it, but it has been covered up by his own physical defects for a long time.

"Leno Jarvis has no physical defects, and we can't see any abnormal phenomena in him. But one thing is very clear, that is, Leno Jarvis knows death magic very well. Kaisha arrests him He said a lot of crazy things when he was here, and he accurately predicted the fall of the fortress of the Korrabo Legion. This part is also included in my report."

Lieutenant Kavado opened the file and showed it to the officer.

While reading, Master muttered:

"'Talk about empires, talk about undead, talk about goddamn Misery', 'you're all like idiots', 'you'll only be led by the enemy'. Well, interesting, this Leno Jarvis said From the bottom of his heart, he has long been impatient with us, and he is very clear about the crux of this life-and-death battle. I arranged for him a nurse as a love partner, just to weaken his IQ with love, but I didn’t expect He wasn't fooled at all, but became more sober. This kind of guy with superior intelligence is the most difficult to deal with."

Master's ten fingers shook regularly, drawing arcs like waves.

"Cavador, I have some guesses."

"All ears, sir."

"It wasn't Jarvis who killed Kai'Sa, but the wizard of the Guild of Death. On the night the fortress fell, Yogg obtained action instructions from the object of prayer during the prayer process. He helped Jarvis escape from the confinement room. After getting out of trouble, guide the other party to join the wizard of the Death Council. After the two sides meet, they leave the Legion Fortress from the underground river together.

"Jarvis had a grudge against the imperial army first, so he accepted the invitation of the Death Council. He and the wizard of the Death Council met Kai'Sa on the way. Jarvis asked the Death Council to kill Kai'Sa, To relieve their hatred, the people from the Death Council killed Kai'Sa and set up a false crime scene.

"In this way, it completely explains the cause of Kai'Sa's death, who arranged the false crime scene, and why there is no sign of pollution on Jarvis' body. Because the one who did it that night was not him as an ordinary person at all, It was the death wizard who came to meet him."

After Lieutenant Kavador listened, his eyes trembled, he pondered for a few seconds, and nodded heavily:

"Yes, sir. Your conjecture is more convincing than mine, and it is more in line with the actual investigation situation. But why did the people from the Death Council accept Jarvis?"

"Because you know why, Kavado, use your brain carefully. You have captured so many apprentice wizards from the Death Society, how many of them can write necromantic runes with a 100% success rate? Li Nuo's talent on the wizarding journey is far higher than that of the wizarding apprentice."

Kavado showed a look of sudden realization:

"Yes, sir, yes. After you reminded me, I realized just how capable Jarvis is. If he joins the Death Council, he will definitely become a headache for us.

"What are we going to do next, sir? Shall we go to the eastern border line and search carefully for traces of Jarvis and the wizards of the Death Order?"

"No." Master shook his hand:

"It is impossible for the people from the Death Council to take Jarvis to the east. Since the moment the Colabo Legion fell, the entire border defense line has entered the highest level of alert. Even I may not be able to pass through the border defense line and return. The hinterland of the empire."

Master put up a finger:

"If Jarvis wants to return to the hinterland of the empire with the people from the Death Society, there is one and only one way to go. That is to cross the Blade's Edge Mountains, arrive at the "Fission Wilderness" of the Golden Federation, and then return to the Empire through the illegal ferry on the wilderness . We can't control the illegal crossings of the Golden Federation, but it is still possible to block the passes in the Blade's Edge Mountains. "

"Block the pass. But sir, if Jarvis and the Death Sect's people don't cross the mountain through the pass controlled by our empire, but walk through the pass of the Necromancer sect, won't we be able to catch them as well?" Kawa Ask more.

"No. I am very clear about the virtues of those who sue the death club." Master waved his hands confidently:

"The people of the Death Sect are eager to master the power of death as a living person, and they look down on the undead of the Necromancer Sect from the bottom of their hearts. The Death Sect managed to get a talented apprentice candidate from the empire, of course it must be cultivated , turned him into a serious death-type wizard. It is impossible to send him into the territory of the undead and transform him into a undead. Therefore, in all likelihood, the people from the Death Society will take Jarvis from the empire Pass through the pass, cross the Blade's Edge Mountains, and arrive at the Golden Federation.

"As for who the death wizard who helped Jarvis escape from the fortress is, I have some speculations. That person is most likely the leader of the wand destruction team who carried the bone elder wand and betrayed the empire. It was this traitor who cooperated with the necromancer sect. A ceremony to summon an army of undead was carried out within the Legion."

Cavaldo was deeply convinced, convinced, and said from the bottom of his heart:

"Sir, your reasoning is much more reliable than mine. Then I will personally lead someone to guard the pass, and never let Jarvis and the people from the Death Council cross the mountain range."

"Yes, Kavado, I officially authorize you to go to the pass to perform this task. In addition, there is one more thing."

Merster continued:

"Regardless of whether the members of the death squad around Jarvis are traitors from the wand destruction team or not, he has impressive strength. How about this, in order to ensure the success of the operation, I allow you to mobilize a biochemical soldier with proliferative armor."

"!!" Lieutenant Kavado's eyes widened all of a sudden, and his tone suddenly became agitated:

"Proliferation armor, biochemical soldiers. Sir, our research plan is successful?! Has the emperor approved us to invest in proliferation armor and biochemical soldiers? That's great! We must prove to the imperial army that the imperial people don't need to know about necromancers Wen, you can defeat the Necromancer sect! The power of biochemical mutations is enough to defeat everything!"

Merster raised his hand and pressed lightly, calming his excited subordinates:

"Cavador, calm down. The research plan has not been completely successful, and there are still many research parameters that need to be adjusted. You go to hunt Jarvis this time, and you can just use the people from the death club to try the combat effect of proliferating armor and biochemical soldiers. When you get back, remember to write a detailed report and send it to MI3.

"If you find traces of a traitor during the search for Jarvis, I allow you to use all means to keep him. This order has a higher priority than the search for Jarvis, because the traitor has a bone elder in his hand. wand."

"Yes, sir!"

Kavado answered loudly, with his back straight and his heart agitated.

He took the transfer order from Master, raised his hand in salute, and turned to leave.

Only Master was left in the office.

"Eh…"

A sigh wafted through the office.

"It's so hard dealing with a bunch of people who don't know what a wizard is.

"In a country where magic can't be mentioned, it's even more difficult to command a bunch of idiots who go to the head when they hear wizards.

"Father, father. Since you hate wizards and magic, and you don't accept alchemy, why did you call me back to take over this mess. You just want to use the extraordinary knowledge in my mind to help you take care of MI2 ?

"The power of magic is great, father, so are wizards. I helped you destroy the Death Council, and new magic organizations will appear in the empire. One is stronger than the other, and the other is more extreme...

"Do you want me to fight those behemoths..."

Master lit a cigarette in distress.

He held the cigarette between his fingers.

The cigarette butt did not touch the mask or lips.

He took a slow breath.

The sparks of the cigarette butt became bright, and the tobacco shreds burned rapidly.

"Huh~"

There was a sound of exhalation, but no white smoke could be seen in the office.

"Let's just maintain the status quo. The Death Council is still easy to deal with... I'm afraid that the new magic organization is something I can't mess with."

The second chapter is at 12 noon!

Starting tomorrow, the update time will be adjusted to noon, so as to prevent everyone from staying up late chasing books and hurting their bodies.
