Dawn of the Grey Tower

There are a total of six wizards of the life school. This is a standard funeral team. Three people will perform the corpse decomposition ceremony. The other three ensure that the corpse is not affected by supernatural forces during the decomposition process.

In other words, if a mage in the City of All Dharma had signed a contract with the devil for his soul before he was alive, then in most cases his soul will be protected from the protection of the last three life school mages. The devil's request.

The same is true for similar operations. The so-called entry into the natural cycle of the Life School means that the deceased will not be affected by any external spells and die like ordinary people. The starting point of this concept is actually good.

As cheese often said, most spellcasters are uneasy to die. Their spirits have suffered too much damage that shouldn't occur in the course of normal life after they stepped into the magic door, and they are more prone to problems.

Reflected on the individual, the weirdness of the personality is only the most basic, and the mental illness and madness have long been common. The most important thing is that many magic factions themselves will overdraft the original vitality of users. This overdraft is not only physical, but also affects the spirit, and even the soul that may exist. This is why many ghosts and ghosts are in their lives. Something related to magic.

The process of purifying the corpse can reduce these problems as much as possible.

It's just that this ceremony is sometimes felt to be too thorough. Especially for those who deal with corpses, such as spies, "Why is there a ceremony now? The corpse should be parked for three days. This is a rule."

In terms of status or position, the mage leading the purification ritual must be more noble than Russell, but the red-haired mage still did not hesitate to stop it. The reason is simple, because he knows that after this ceremony, the headless corpse behind him will completely disappear. In a more layman's terms, he is gone.

If secular cremation can leave ashes that are not easy to burn, then the spells of the life faction do not have this problem at all. The corpse processed by them will disappear like a literal sense, and there will be no traces of existence, nothing. Leave. After all, the bones and skin of the mage and other body organs may also be used by people.

"The rule is that the remains of all spellcasters in the city will be processed by the School of Life. As for the processing time, there is no absolute requirement. Three days is just a customary time limit. No one says that the remains will be taken after three sun and moon rotations. Deal with it. Especially this one. Don’t you feel sad for the deceased when you see him? How can you and your colleagues bear to make him look like this? It can affect parts of this corpse with magic. So the more you stop, the earlier it needs to enter the cycle. There is nothing to argue about, Mr. Detective."

"Why did we dissect him? It is precisely because of the strangeness of his death. Your duty is to ensure that we enjoy death peacefully, and our duty is to prevent those who have caused involuntary death from continuing to commit crimes. For this reason, we He needs the only way he can tell us the clues of the murderer. This is for the sake of law and justice. Just as we follow the way of magic, so does the law of this city. You cannot go beyond your authority."

Russell's tone and expression were very serious. These words were not only out of investigation needs, but also out of the attitude of a mage of the secret ritual school and a law enforcer of the City of Ten Thousand Laws.

"Magic is the unrevealed side of the world. We are not the creators of magic, just as we are not the givers of life. We are gathered here by law and justice, just like lions and bees. But this is not It means that the rules we set up the day after tomorrow can override more essential things. Secret agents, whether you can find the murderer or you can’t find it, no matter what the result is, the dead can’t come back to life. In this case, what we have to do should be Let the deceased greet death in a calm manner, not because your regulations still suffer insults without dignity and reason after death. And this is our authority, and it is you who exceed your authority."

"You..." Of course, Russell still has a thousand words to fight back against each other. Most mages are articulate and quick thinking, otherwise they will not be able to deal with the tricky questions of the instructor. But Kailas stopped him.

"Let them do it. This thing itself is also a clue." The corner of the cat goblin's mouth with a provocative smile, looked at the leading life school mage, and it really caught the fleeting change from the opponent's face. .

"Not everything will become part of your investigation. Most of the time, the connection between things is not that strong. We are also acting on orders and we have no intention of targeting you."

"Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes." said the cat goblin, taking Russell nonchalantly out of the morgue, and then looking at the mages who entered behind him and whispered, "Then what are you explaining? "

"You just let them ignore the rules so much?" Russell was obviously out of anger. After leaving the room, he immediately questioned the responsible mage, and the latter could only spread his hands and make a helpless expression.

"I tried to stop it, and you saw it. They had no choice but to break into me. Moreover, this group of people was originally responsible for the disposal of the body at this outpost. We will need to cooperate later..."

The red-haired spy didn't listen to the other party's excuse, turned his head and left. However, Kailas and the wizard nodded slightly, and they followed Russell's footsteps without delay.

"Why are you walking so fast? Can you catch people by walking fast?" said the cat fairy yoyo, seemingly unaffected by what happened just now.

But those who are familiar with him know that if this old cat suddenly becomes kind, then he must have a plan. It is precisely because he has a bigger plan in his heart that he does not care about the gains and losses in front of him, and even hopes to take the initiative to lose something to ensure that the following situation can proceed smoothly.

"Of course it is, I can't catch it." Russell was very angry, but he did not vent his anger on others, UU reading www.uukanshu. When com heard Kailas’s question, his high tone slowly sank. Looks a little frustrated.

"It's not a shameful thing. Nine people in front of you have seen the corpse, but haven't they still not caught the murderer? After all, we are here to try our luck. Now it seems that luck is better than expected. Wait. I tell you my speculation, you go back to see the cheese and tell him the situation. By the way, I remember he said that you masters have a bit of drawing skills because you want to draw a magic circle, right?"

Russell blinked and didn't understand the meaning of Kailas's words, but he nodded, "When it comes to painting, I do know a little bit. When I was an intern at the institute, I helped draw several plant illustrations."

"Then it will be much easier. Go back and draw the details of the corpse you just saw. Since you and I may be the last group to see the corpse and do not belong to the life school, this will be very critical."

"Okay, this proposal is good. But won't you go back with me?" The two walked out of the outpost, and the spy said while looking at Kailas who was moving.

"No, I found a new entertainment project. Know that stalking the prey is always the most enjoyable part of a hunt."
