I made science magic

In the evening, two uninvited guests were welcomed into the slums outside Nordland in the Sekas Empire.

The leading man was about thirty or so. He was wearing a tight-fitting leather armor, a long knife hanging on his waist, and his dark golden hair was spread behind his head. He looked out of place in this dilapidated and decaying slum, and naturally attracted countless malicious pairs of eyes at the first time.

gaze.

The hungry mob and thieves lurked in the dark, scanning the two men with their sharp eyes.

After seeing the mark of Holy Light on the clothes of the two men, these targets of prying eyes immediately retracted their attention.

In the Sekas Empire, there may be people who don’t recognize the empire’s flag, but there will never be anyone who doesn’t know the Mark of Holy Light…

This is the symbol of the messenger of the gods!

Apart from the clergy wearing temple robes, the only ones with the mark of the Holy Light on their clothes are witch hunters!

It is rumored that every witch hunter has been blessed by the gods and possesses skills far beyond ordinary people. No one is willing to provoke such a target.

Noticing that the figure hiding in the dark disappeared, Andre smiled disdainfully, but the faint stench coming from the dilapidated streets soon made him frown.

"Sure enough, what Bishop Anziuk said is right. These wizards are like mice, they like to hide in such dark and smelly corners." Andre looked at the stains and feces remaining in the dark corners of the street, and couldn't help but cover his head.

He held his nose and complained.

"We'd better be more vigilant, Andre, the person we need to deal with this time is not an ordinary character," the leading man was somewhat dissatisfied with Andre's flamboyant posture, and couldn't help but remind him.

A few days ago, a big event happened in the Duke of Nordland. A wizard named Kelu tried to seduce the Duke's second daughter. Fortunately, he was discovered by the guards stationed in time, which prevented the Duke of Nordland's young daughter from being tricked by the devil.

Bewitch.

The brutality of that encirclement and suppression battle is still vivid in my mind.

In order to capture this daring wizard, the Duke of Nordland sent two entire brigades of guards to pursue him. Even so, he still suffered heavy losses. In the end, if the bishop of the Holy See had not arrived, the Duke of Nordland would have been disfigured.

It's all going to be lost!

And their target this time is the other party’s apprentice, who is also a wizard!

"Don't worry, Blaney." Andre said with a sneer. "What we are dealing with this time is just a wizard apprentice who has only been exposed to magic for a few months. These people usually only know one or two small tricks. Trust me,

A farmer wielding a hoe is harder to deal with."

Since joining the witch-hunting team for more than half a year, he has participated in several hunting operations against witches.

At the beginning, Andre could be afraid of the legendary wizards inspired by the devil.

However, after actual contact, Andre discovered that those wizards were not as scary as he imagined. Most of them were not a threat. Their magic power was limited, and some were not even as reliable as attack weapons and long swords.

As for those apprentices who are not good at learning, they can only be described as waste. Once distracted, they cannot use magic in battle and can only be slaughtered by others.

What makes Andre most satisfied is that the bounty for capturing these wizards is very high, and the Duke of Nordland is even more generous. If you capture an apprentice alive, you can get a full six Sekas gold coins, enough for them to spend extravagantly.

Been on it for a while!

Of course, if killed, it would only be worth half the price.

Blainey glanced at Andre and didn't refute, but he didn't let go of his guard.

In his impression, those witch hunters who believed in intelligence often did not live long...

The slums outside Nordland were not large, and the circulation of people was even less. With his identity as a witch hunter, Andre confirmed the target's hiding place from a homeless man with a little threat.

It was a building that was difficult to describe as a house. The red brick walls were covered with pits and green vines, and the door looked shaky, as if it would collapse with a slight push.

The target we were looking for was right in front of us, but neither of the two people present had the intention to act immediately.

Andre glanced at his partner, cursed secretly in his heart, then stepped forward and pressed his palm on the door. He pulled the door bolt hard with his calloused knuckles. The seemingly shaky door remained motionless, obviously.

Someone had blocked the back of the door with something.

Andre was furious and kicked the door with all his strength.

There was a violent crash, and the door burst open, revealing the scene in the back room.

The narrow house lacked maintenance and looked messy, with garbage piled up in the corners.

There was a candle burning on the wooden table nearby. Probably disturbed by the sound of wind caused by the violent breaking of the door, the weak candle flickered twice and then went out.

The originally bright room suddenly became very dark. Only a little light shone through the wide open window, and you could vaguely see the worn blanket on the bed being dragged to the ground and extending to the window.

Blainey, who followed, scanned the room, and his eyes were quickly attracted by the note falling on the ground.

Andrei also noticed this when he entered the door first. He bent down and picked up the crumpled note. After seeing the content on it clearly, his face became very ugly.

"Damn it, it looks like we're late, this guy has already gone to join other apprentices!" Andre said angrily, and combined with the environment in the room, he immediately figured out what happened.

The target of their arrest, the wizard apprentice, had received the news before they arrived, and ran away before they even had time to pack up their belongings.

However, judging from the unextinguished candlelight and the residual warmth on the bed, it seemed that the other party had not gone far.

Thinking of this, Andre was very anxious. Even if he was about to leave, these were six Secas gold coins, so he couldn't just run away.

Once the opponent reunites with other wizard apprentices, it will be difficult to capture him. Of course, in comparison, Andre is more worried that the target will be caught first by other bounty hunters halfway.

"etc……"

Just when Andre hurriedly wanted to climb through the window to pursue him, Blainey reached out to stop him. With the former's impatient expression, he pointed to the desk beside him.

Andre turned his head and looked over. In addition to the extinguished candles, there were also a dozen copper coins and manuscript papers with strange characters and patterns scattered on the table.

After thinking for a while, Andre quickly understood what his companion meant. If the wizard apprentice left after receiving the news, it would be impossible to leave behind the coins that were easy to carry, let alone these "precious" magic manuscripts.

.

Andre, who had experience hunting wizards, knew very well that most wizards would rather die to protect the so-called research notes they said.

In other words, the other party is probably still hiding in this room...

Andre sneered. The dragging traces of the blanket on the ground, the wide open window, and the dropped note all hinted that the other party had fled.

Obviously this wizard apprentice played a good trick and wanted to mislead them to other places. Maybe it was a trap and he almost got fooled.

At this moment, Lin En, who was hiding in the darkness, broke into a cold sweat. His spirit became even more excited in this fatal crisis, and his divergent spirit continued to spread to the surroundings under the influence of magic.

It can even affect the flow of air to a certain extent and extinguish candles, and it will not make any sound when breathing. It is thanks to this that he can hide under the eyes of the two witch hunters.

Blainey ignored the awakened Andre, looking around the room, and soon looked at the dark red cabinet next to the vertical window.

The cabinet was only shoulder-high, and its surface was covered with dust. It was very close to the open window. It was inconspicuous in this dilapidated and drafty hut, but it was enough to accommodate a huddled-up adult man...
