"Could it be him?" asked Regner.

"If you were to be sifted by the criteria of ability, Master Mel would be the most likely. Annie Lot frowned and said, "Although the teleportation technique is just a very ordinary spell, according to what you said, Innie should have been by my side for the past month to study the magic cannon with me. If I was so close to me and could completely conceal the magic fluctuations so that I couldn't detect them, there shouldn't be many people in the whole of Melindell who could do it. And Master Mel is undoubtedly among the few people. ”

"Sister Annie......" Innellis thought for a moment, and suddenly realized something.

"What's wrong?"

"Actually......" Inellis said after glancing at Erin, "Actually, that voice mentioned one more thing. That is, most of my ideas and ideas in pharmacy were obtained from him. ”

"From him?" the other three were a little puzzled.

"Some of my ideas for potion formulations came to me at night when I was dreaming in my sleep. "He said it was his idea. ”

"Psychic guidance?" Anelot thought with a frown, if she could still cast spells like psychic channeling, then Mel would be even more suspicious. But even so, Annelot shook her head: "I don't think it will be Master Mel. ”

"Why?" asked Regner, who also didn't think it would be Mel, but he needed to hear Annelot's reasoning.

"He has no motive. Anne Lot replied, "Why did Master Mel harm me?"

"That's right. Regner nodded.

Mel really didn't have any motives, why did he do this? Because he was jealous of Annelot's talent? How could this be! Master Mel's personality was clear to everyone, if he was really a small-bellied and jealous guy, then the Hawke Empire's Court Mage Association would not have developed to the scale it is today. And Regner doesn't think anyone can disguise an image for decades.

Moreover, Mel is not only not jealous of Annelot, but admires her talent very much. More than once, he wanted to accept Annelot as his personal disciple, but each time Annelot politely refused. But even so, Mel still has a crush on Annelot. According to the information gathered by Regner, Anne Lot's research on the magic cannon was so successful, including the secret help of Master Mel.

If it weren't for the fact that he opened the door to Annelot's research and lent her some of the best alchemists in the Mage Guild, Annelot would not have been able to complete the restoration of the magic cannon so quickly.

Moreover, since Annelot's injury, Mel has also been running back and forth. If it was really him, there was no need for Mel to be in such a hurry, right? he could have stood by and watched coldly, maybe Annelot would never wake up again?

Combining all of these factors, both Regnar and Annelot agree that Mel has the ability to do this, but he has no motivation to do so.

However, to be on the safe side, Regner thought it would be better to consult Malolette privately after this discussion. Although the Tempest Juggernaut may seem to be at odds with Master Mel, in fact, Regner knows that they were also comrades who fought side by side during the Founding War. If anyone was familiar with Master Meier, it would be Malolite who would undoubtedly be one of them.

"If not Mel, who else could it be?" Regner seemed to ask Annelot, as if talking to himself.

"Then the problem comes back to the beginning. Annelot replied, "There are only two explanations for this." First, the power of the man in Ocean Tide City has completely surpassed my comprehension, so it is possible for him to do anything. The second is that there is still a mage in Melindell whose strength is not inferior to that of Master Mel, or even stronger than that of Master Mel, and he did all of this. ”

"Divine magic cannot be forgotten. Regner reminded, "Maybe Stoke sent a priest to do it." ”

"I'll ask the teacher to pay attention to this aspect of the pastor. Erin took the initiative to say that she knew that her ability in this area was too weak, so it was better to let Martin check it with her.

"I'll figure it out on my own, Master's problem. Anne Lott also said.

"Then I'll take care of the rest. Regner nodded, and then he scratched his hair a little helplessly: "After discussing for so long, it seems that no results have been found." ”

"I'll pay attention to it later, and if that voice comes out again, I'll tell you. Iniris said quietly and sincerely.

"Alright, Ini. Regner couldn't bear to look at Innellis's submissive appearance. He smiled and rubbed Inelis's long golden hair: "Don't blame yourself for everything, you were also confused by that voice, and besides, blame my brother for not noticing your changes." It's none of your fault. You see, I don't blame you now, and Anne doesn't blame you either, so be happy. ”

"Hmm......" Inilis' eyes reddened slightly, but she couldn't hold back her tears.

"In that case, so be it. When Anne Lot saw that it was over, she prepared to go back.

"Annie. Regner called out to the Frost Maiden.

"What's wrong?" Anne Lott frowned slightly, Regner's affectionate title made her a little uncomfortable.

"Where are you going to live in the future?" asked Ragner.

"Naturally, it's the Wind Mansion, or the academy. Anne Lot replied as a matter of course.

"You don't reply anymore...... Where am I?" asked Regner, with some bitterness.

Anne Lott blinked, then her tone was a little cold: "I think you misunderstood." ”

"Huh?"

"There are two main reasons to discuss these issues with you, one is because you are very passionate about it. The other is because you're the Chief of Military Intelligence and I need your help to find out the truth. But when I discuss these things with you, it doesn't mean how close I am to you, and I hope you understand. Anne Lott said lightly.

"......," Regner couldn't help but feel a little gloomy when he heard this.

"Sister Anne......" Innellis felt a little more guilty when she heard Anne Lott say this.

"If it's okay, I'll go first. When Anne Lot saw Regner's appearance, she felt a twitch somewhere in her heart. In order to hide this emotional turmoil, the Frost Maiden had no choice but to retreat immediately.

"Is it ......" Regna began, his voice hoarse and helpless, "Do you really want to alienate me so much......? I...... Some are unwilling to ......"

"I don't know what the relationship with you was like before, but now I can't accept you like this. Give me some time and let me find my place...... That's all I can say. Anne Lot didn't look back, so no one saw the complicated expression on her face when she said these words.

Anne Lott didn't stop any longer after speaking, and walked out directly. Only Regner was left staring blankly at her back.

"Don't worry, Brother Regner, Sister Anne just hasn't adapted for a while, and I'm sure after a while, you'll be back to the way you were before. Erin stood up and whispered comfortingly.

"I'm fine, don't worry. Regner grinned at the corners of his mouth.

......

"It won't be Mel's. ”

In the afternoon, Regner went to talk to Malorette about Mel. Although she had strongly objected to Mel going to Anilot's rescue, at this point, Malorette had answered Regnar with such certainty.

"Why?" asked Ragner, "Didn't you suspect him before?"

"But then he did us a great favor. Malloret spread her hands: "Moreover, I was not defending against him at that time, but the Hawke Empire." If he came alone, I naturally wouldn't stop him, but at that time, he brought a large number of people from the Palace Mage Association, which made me dare not feel at ease, so I blasted them out. ”

"......" Regner was speechless, "So, you don't doubt Master Mel?"

"I never doubted him. Malolet replied, "Mel is a little shorter, though he has a bad temper." But his skills and personality are still more appreciated by Marolet. That guy has a stubborn temper, and it's absolutely impossible to agree to something he doesn't agree with. And as you said, Mel is quite fond of Anne, and I don't think even the Hawke Empire can force him to hurt Anne. ”

"The Empire can't order him?" Regner was stunned, he thought that Mel, as the president of the Court Mage Association, should be very loyal to the royal family of the Hawke Empire, how could it not be like that when he heard what Maloret meant?

"Boy. Malolet knocked on Regner's head: "It seems that you are still not familiar enough with this empire!"

"You say, old man. Regner put on an open face.

"Now, look. Malollet held out two fingers: "The empire has only been established for twenty years. Do you think the empire has been able to cultivate an organization that is absolutely loyal to itself for such a long time? Even if you bring the foundation of the previous Duke Merlin's era, the duke is not a king after all, and the institutions in his hands are still pitiful. Therefore, the two institutions of the Military Intelligence Department and the Court Mage Association were basically built with the help of external forces. ”

"......" Regner was silent, continuing to listen to Mallorlet's story.

"Although the Court Mage Guild seems to be directly under the royal family, in fact, these are just magicians hired by the king of the empire in his private name. They are not talents that the empire itself has devoted its efforts to cultivating, so naturally they will not be completely of the same mind as the empire. And then the mage itself is a strange position, and wants a group of recruited mages to become loyal dogs of the Empire? Do you think this is possible? And ......" Malloret paused here before continuing, "Mel is actually a Stoke as well. ”
