Versatile Mage: Imperial Dragon Emperor

Soul reverberation is the natural talent of Gareph Winston, the first head of the Winston family. With soul reverberation, Gareph can communicate with the reverberation hidden in special magic tools to perform special effects. magical skills.

This type of special magic tool is called a holy relic. In the past, when the magic tool manufacturing technology was not very mature, in order for the magic tool to be contained in one's own soul, the user needed to put himself in the process of forging the magic tool. A small part of the soul separates and resonates with the core of the magic tool. After the resonance is completed, the magic tool can accommodate the soul.

The holy relic also possesses a small part of the user's soul. It will not make the user's soul incomplete, but will enhance the strength of the user's soul. However, when the holy relic is damaged, the user will also suffer a soul impact. Losing a small part of your soul permanently.

This forging method with its pros and cons became the mainstream for forging magic tools at that time. In order to resist the attacks of monsters and the secret injuries of enemy aliens, humans must prepare magic tools to make up for their own shortcomings.

When the owner of the holy relic dies, the holy relic will enter a slumber state, waiting for the next user worthy of its awakening.

There are not many holy relics left in the world at present, and they can be said to be rare. In the entire Ying Kingdom, only the Winston family has the most holy relics. After all, their natural talents can make them better. Use relics

The natural talent of the Winston family - soul reverberation - is the ability to communicate with the reverberation in the holy relics, thereby gaining special abilities.

It can be said that the strength of the Winston family is based on the holy relics. Without the holy relics, the strength of the Winston family will be reduced by more than half. After all, their magic skills are all developed based on the holy relics. .

At this moment, Allen is holding a red-handled sword, which is the sword of Galahad, one of the twelve Knights of the Round Table - Meriaduke.

As one of this generation, the Winston family has the highest level of soul echo awakening, and he is unable to completely construct the legendary Knight of the Round Table, Galahad.

This means that the resonant resonance between him and Meriaduk is not high enough. When Galahad is completely constructed, he will truly become the master of Meriaduk.

Now, it can only be said that he is borrowing the power of the red-handled sword through the echo of his soul.

Galahad, who was gathered by red fireflies, raised Meriaduke, who was also transformed by red fireflies, and placed one end of his sword flat on Allen's right shoulder.

Suddenly the red-handled sword lit up with fluorescent light, and a 360-degree all-round shield composed of red fireflies appeared around Allen, wrapping him in it.

"May the filthy and evil things not invade your body"

The Red Firefly Knight said something that Allen couldn't understand, but Allen, who resonated with the reverberation, was able to understand the meaning.

Then he took the red-handled sword back to his waist, and the red-handled sword instantly shrank to a small sword only ten centimeters long. The red firefly knight behind him also turned into red fireflies again and disappeared in the wind.

"Then I'm going down!"

Allen gave Aris a thumbs up and jumped into the river.

Yaris stood on the bridge and watched this scene quietly. She believed in Allen, but this case might be more difficult than before.

Allen, who dived into the blood-black river, thought that the entire river would turn blood-black. However, when he swam directly to the bottom of the river, he discovered that only one-third of the upper layer of the river had turned into blood-black, and the rest had turned into blood-black. Some of them still have normal colors.

What a strange toxin, let’s go look for clues first.

Allen used his hands and feet to swim in the river as nimbly as a fish.

On the way here, Yaris told him that he needed to find some pieces of flesh and blood in the river.

This made him sick for a while. He had never seen the victim's body, but after hearing what Yaris said, he probably couldn't even stand the corpse.

A faint red light covered Allen's eyes, allowing him to see clearly in the river.

Broken pieces, broken pieces, where are they?

Five minutes passed, and Allen searched for almost half a circle in the river. There were only pebbles, and he couldn't even see any flesh.

You won't be washed further downstream, right?

Allen looked at the lower reaches of the river and thought, keep looking.

Ten minutes passed again, and Allen had already searched the blocked river area. He didn't find any debris, but he did find a one-carat diamond. It was probably thrown here by some rich girl. I have enough money for tonight's meal. .

"Aris, no fragments were found!"

Allen put his head out of the river and shouted to Yaris on the bridge.

No.

Aris put the tips of his ten fingers together in front of his red lips, and his eyelids drooped slightly.

Seeing Aris like this, Allen also stayed quietly in the river.

The two corpses were identical in key details, but the head of the second corpse was missing and there were obvious bite marks on the neck. The technique was obviously different from that of the first corpse.

It shows that when the second murder occurred, in addition to the mastermind, there was an accomplice nearby.

Judging from the wounds, the accomplice was the one who caused the death. Both bodies were found in the river.

But in terms of time of death, the first corpse died nearly two days earlier than the second corpse.

The day before the second body was found, it rained heavily in Fogdu and was accompanied by strong winds.

Yaris looked towards the upper reaches of the river, which should be connected to...

"Alan, look for it again. This time, pay attention to the stone crevices on both sides of the river and the stone crevices under the bridge. Pay special attention to the two bridges downstream."

"learn!"

Seeing Allen dive into the blood-black river water again, Yaris also turned sideways and grabbed the gap of the stone bridge with one hand to support his body so as not to fall into the river.

Using his right hand as a fulcrum, Aris stuck his two slender jade legs in the stone crevices under the stone bridge to stabilize his body.

Those ruby-like eyes scanned the gaps under the bridge, missing not a single trace.

Aris changed positions several times, but found nothing. Then he used one hand to flip back to the bridge flexibly.

It seems there is none here.

While Aris was still thinking, a faint sound of swimming came from the lower reaches of the river.

"Aris! Got it!"

No, why is the Yingguo neighborhood layout in this world so complicated? He couldn't even understand it even with the map.

At this time, Lin Yi was walking on the country road in Wancworth with a paper map in hand.

He is a little confused now. Although it is his first time to go abroad in this world, but logically speaking, would the distribution of neighborhoods in a country change so much?

In the world of science, he has been to Yingguo more than once, but he has never been so lost!

I was in the city just now, then I walked to a group of medieval-style buildings, and now I'm in the countryside.

Even if magic is the mainstream of this world, is this change a bit exaggerated? He can barely understand some of the markings on the map now.

No wonder I can't find the map of Yingguo Fog City on my mobile phone. It's not that there isn't one, it's just that it's too complicated.

It seems to be over here

Lin Yi saw a rather dilapidated church. The windows of the church were sealed with wooden boards, and a lot of tiles on the roof had fallen off.

The abandoned church seemed to be here. Lin Yi looked at the map again.

After he handed over the information about the alien race of ghouls to Lingling, he was asked by Lingling to check the place where the corpses were dumped to see if he could find any useful clues.

Lin Yi walked towards the abandoned church and looked inside through the gaps between the wooden boards.

The interior of the church was dark, with only the sunlight leaking through the gaps illuminating the interior. The fine and dense dust was very clear under the sunlight. There were still some relatively intact long church chairs inside the church.

When he walked to the door, Lin Yi found that it was locked. Although he could open it with a squeeze, it was better not to do that in a foreign country.

I heard that the people in the Throne Court are quite ruthless, and in this world it seems to be a crime to break into a church here in Ying Kingdom.

Just be a legal citizen.

Um? That figure looks familiar? Why does she look like a lolita kidnapped at the airport?

Walking a little closer, Lin Yi discovered that the person was Allen Winston, and there was a blue-haired loli next to him.

When Lin Yi discovered them, Allen and Yaris also discovered Lin Yi at the same time.

"It's you!"

Allen pointed at Lin Yi with a shocked look on his face and said.

"I didn't expect to meet you here, lolicon."

"What the hell is a lolicon! My name is Ellen Winston! Just call me Ellen."

"Okay, lolicon."

Allen: ψ(｀)ψ

Suddenly Alan thought of something, and just as he was about to speak, Yaris said.

"This is the Chinese who called the police and arrested you. He is also a hunter, a high-level mage, and a summoner."

"Have you investigated me beforehand?"

"It's not necessary. This is just basic information and does not need to be obtained through investigation."

awesome!

Lin Yi looked at the blue-haired lolita in front of him. It was amazing that he could get so much information when he saw him for the first time, and all of it was correct.

Seeing that something was wrong with the atmosphere between the two parties, Allen quickly intervened between the two and said.

"Aris, this is Lin Yi from China, and this is my partner, Yaris Holmes."

Sherlock Holmes? Isn't that a character in a novel?

Lin Yi's pupils dilated slightly and he couldn't help but look at Yaris, but Yaris frowned slightly when he saw Lin Yi's reaction.

Seeing Lin Yi's reaction, Allen said with satisfaction.

"I didn't expect that Sherlock Holmes would appear again in this generation."

"Wait a minute, you said you are her partner, does that mean you are (Watson)?"

Allen nodded and admitted his identity.

"Isn't your last name Winston?"

"(Watson) is just a name for Holmes' partner. Anyone can be Watson, as long as he is recognized by Holmes."

Allen showed a proud expression. In order to get Yaris to recognize him as "Watson", he tried so hard to cram in knowledge and practice like crazy for the first time, and was almost sent to a mental hospital by the old man.

But it's all worth it!

Lin Yi watched Allen look at Aris affectionately, and he couldn't help but doubt Allen's motives for becoming Watson.

"Ahem, I didn't choose to be Watson for that reason, and don't look at me with that suspicious look!"

Lin Yi looked at a slightly white-red fragment in Allen's hand. He could tell at a glance that this fragment was part of a human eyeball.

"Are you investigating this case too?"

"right."

"Then wait, let Aris take a look first."

After saying that, Allen handed the eyeball fragments to Aris.

Lin Yi saw Yaris holding the eyeball fragment, stared at it for a second, and then handed it to Allen again.

"Okay?"

"Okay, let's go."

After saying that, Yaris walked in another direction. When Allen saw this, he also stuffed the eyeball fragments into Lin Yi's hands.

"This is the only place you can find in this river. I'm leaving first, Yaris! Wait for me!"

Lin Yi looked at the broken eyeball in his hand and said.

"Apu, do you feel it?"

Apu, who was sitting on Lin Yi's shoulder, revealed his originally hidden dragon form.

Ouch~

Lin Yi looked at the direction Yaris and Allen were leaving and thought to himself.

It seems that Sherlock Holmes in this world has more than just reasoning.

"Aris, did you see that guy's surprised expression? Every time I see these people surprised by Holmes' identity, I feel inexplicably happy!"

Allen said excitedly from the side.

"That's not a surprise about my identity."

Aris' words suddenly silenced the excited Allen.

"Aren't you surprised by your identity? He knew you were Sherlock Holmes?"

"No."

Aris turned his head slightly and looked back.

That look seemed to be questioning the existence of Holmes, or thinking that Holmes existed in fantasy.

It was a strange reaction, as if it were the reaction heard by someone who lives in a world where Sherlock Holmes does not exist.

Twist Hunters Association.

"Here you Lingling, this is the only one on site."

After Allen and the others left, Lin Yi deliberately searched the river again. With Apu's help, he could find it faster than Allen, but after searching again, he found nothing.

Lin Yi handed the sealed bag containing the eyeball fragments to Lingling.

"It doesn't seem to be contaminated by toxins. Let's see if you can find any useful information on it. By the way, I found new clues on the body. You go to the Los Angeles neighborhood in Wanciworth District."

"Has the victim been in that area before?"

"Yes, this is a place that could not be found during the previous investigation by the association. Although the traces of his life were checked, no useful information was found. The fragments found on the body now point to a cowboy business called Dusk. bar."

"Okay, I'll go there later. By the way, Lingling, will you come with me?"

"Go on your own. There are still some documents that are not ready. Put on the communicator and contact us in real time."

After saying that, Lingling turned around and left the room without leaving a trace.

So heartless, Lingling~crying~

Apu flew to Lin Yi at this time, patted Lin Yi's shoulder with his little paw, and showed an expression of "Daddy is with you."

The next moment, Apu was "packed" again by Lin Yi and thrown into the contract space.

Holmes Watson

For some reason, Lin Yi felt that he would see them again soon.

Deadline, I am a real deadline warrior!
