My blood regeneration is 100 million points faster

Xia Zuo once took over the task of investigating traitors.

Back then, he and Dim uncovered the bio-alchemist traitor Hemst in Sbrier City.

In the whole process, there are two people who have made indispensable contributions...

One is Xia Zuo himself, who witnessed the entire process of Hemst's fall and gained insight into the conspiracy discussed by the other party with the blood demon Qualuowuqi.

The other was Emily, the leader of the research team at the time, who provided information about Hemst's unusual behavior.

The captain has higher loyalty and will have more information, making it easier for Xia Zuo to collect intelligence quickly. For this reason, in this investigation of the traitor, Xia Zuo also planned to start from the captain of the academy's mage team.

He drifted all the way to the westernmost part of the kingdom and stopped at the Pisco Bastion on the border.

This is a highly militarized fortress building, the main body of which is a vast bastion - a kind of building that can effectively resist ground military units in the Middle Ages. Looking at the appearance of the bastion from a high place, you will find that it is a relatively regular polygon. Each protruding corner bastion will be protected by the adjacent corner bastions on both sides.

Xia Zuo knew that this kind of military structure, which was effective against ground units, would gradually reveal its shortcomings and shortcomings as the monsters were released, because the temple had plans to release flying monsters on the border.

However, this is all a story for another day. How to deal with flying monsters should be left to the kingdom’s military.

Xia Zuo came here just to secretly summon the leader of the mage stationed in the city, who was also the captain of the team of mage from the academy.

He used the talisman given by Beatrice to safely pass through the protective circle of the fortress tower without disturbing anyone, and finally landed on the roof of the tower.

After dialing a secret message, Xia Zuo stood under the shadow of the roof wall and waited patiently.

Two minutes passed.

An inconspicuous little bat flew up from below covered in moonlight. As it approached the platform on the top of the building, it transformed into a black mist, and then condensed into a beautiful figure.

Xia Zuo looked at the other person's face and ponytail, and thought to himself that they were indeed half acquaintances.

The captain of this academy mage team is a female mage named Yani.

When Xia Zuo and An Ru'er were still in school, An Ru'er often went to class and went shopping with senior Yani. Later, Yanni was assigned to Sbrier City as the resident mage and once handled Hemst's body.

Xia Zuo was now wearing a hood with a concealing effect to cover his face, changing his voice, and using the illusion magic circle that came with the high-level mage's robe to change his body shape. There was zero chance that Yani could recognize him.

Xia Zuo walked out of the shadows, and a letter flew out of his sleeves and fell into Yani's hands.

Yanni saw the stamp on the letter and the emblem on the wax seal, and knew the identity of the other party.

Xia Zuo waved his hand to set up a barrier against prying eyes, tilted his chin slightly, and motioned for Yani to open the letter and check it out.

Beatrice herself had a relatively high opinion of Yani, so she directly stated all the instructions in the letter. She made it clear that the high-level mage in front of her was here to investigate this case and she must cooperate fully.

After Yani read the letter, she bowed and saluted solemnly, "Your Excellency, please ask me."

"I need all of your work records from the day you were stationed in this fort to the present. The most complete and detailed kind must include meditation schedules, personnel handover records, spell casting records, and records of entry and exit from the tower. And you Personal memo.”

Xia Zuo continued:

"If you find any suspicious clues, you can give them to me."

"Okay, Your Excellency. I have always carried these things with me and can hand them over to you now." Yani took out a leather bookcase from her alchemy pocket.

Xia Zuo took it with his palm made of silver sand, opened the box from a distance, let the books inside float to his side, and browsed quickly.

When he was promoted to a high-level mage, the spell book given by Kristo included an enchantment spell called [Reading Acceleration].

This spell can greatly enhance the caster's own reading speed in a short period of time. For every 20 points of non-attribute power invested, one more book can be read at the same time.

Xia Zuo can now quickly read 7 books at the same time.

About 20 minutes later, Xia Zuo finished reading 7 notebooks.

Receiving a large amount of text messages in a short period of time made his forehead slightly swollen and uncomfortable.

Xia Zuo resisted the urge to rub his temples and press his forehead, trying hard to maintain the image of an enigmatic high-level mage.

After taking a short rest, he quickly reviewed the whole incident in his mind.

About 10 days ago, when the kingdom's army was fighting against the invasion of monsters, they accidentally discovered several monster cubs - 4 saber-toothed porcupine cubs and 3 Creek hydra baby snakes.

Some people in the kingdom's army asked: Can monster cubs be tamed to fight against monsters?

It must be said that this idea is relatively unconventional among many strategies, and has been approved by some innovative and pioneering people in the kingdom.

The Provincial Council of Massano decided to give it a try. So the seven monster cubs survived and were brought to the city of Masano.

Five days ago, these seven monster cubs broke free from the shackles of their cages and embarked on a journey to escape into the mountains in the central part of the Western Continent.

Finally, they succeeded.

For Xia Zuo, who knew the plan to release monsters, the number of monsters escaping this time was not large, and their growth stages were limited to their infancy. Overall, the threat was not great, and the consequences were not too serious.

But the problem is that neither the young saber-toothed porcupine nor the young hydra snake are the kind of monsters that can sneak away honestly.

They are very similar to human cubs in their active nature. As long as they are not watched by their parents, they will run around and cause trouble.

What's more, the feces of the saber-toothed porcupine and the saliva of the Creek hydra all have a strong pungent smell. The trained garrison and garrison mages can easily detect their whereabouts...

The search results recorded by Yani showed that these monsters left almost no traces in the kingdom. Even if they were accidentally exposed, they were artificially covered up, as if someone escorted this group of monsters out of the kingdom.

Various evidence points to a speculation:

There was a person who was well versed in the habits of monsters and knew how to take care of monster cubs. After mastering the layout of the kingdom's defense line, he secretly moved these monsters outside the kingdom. His purpose may be to use flesh and blood alchemy to refine more powerful monsters, or it may be to refine alchemy equipment. Since the kingdom has experienced the disaster of rogue bandits, the level of internal investigation is no longer what it used to be. The plan for this unknown mission must be carried out in a desolate place like the central mountainous area.

Taken together, the scope of the investigation has been narrowed a lot, and the focus is on the target person being well versed in the habits of monsters.
