The Wizards Federation of the Magic City at 9:23 a.m

The elevator on the 29th floor opened with a clang, and a middle-aged woman in a black suit hurriedly held a tablet and knocked on the door of the office of the director of the [Arrest Division].

"Enter!" a dull male voice sounded.

The middle-aged woman pushed the door in, turned around and closed the door, and said with a solemn face: "Director, something happened." ”

The office is not very large, it is very neat, only a table, a chair and a set of leather sofas, without any decorations. The entire wall on the left is a huge LCD screen with thousands of different images on the screen. It seems to be real-time monitoring, or case recording video or something like that.

Zhang Yue, director of the Department of Arrest, was standing in front of the giant display screen, scanning the screen on it.

Without saying a word, he turned his head to look at the middle-aged woman, a pair of pupils that changed colors, and quickly returned to their usual appearance.

The middle-aged woman walked up to Zhang Yue and clicked on the video file of the tablet in her hand, "Director, last night the Qianxi Guili City Branch received an alarm from the [Wave Energy Sensor] and sent a team of division members to a place called Wanzhong Mountain to investigate. did not return at 8 o'clock this morning, and the Guili City Branch sent two more 5-star captains to the place of the incident. Here's the video that just came up. ”

Zhang Yue's slightly pale and thin face did not have a trace of expression, took the tablet board, looked at the video content, and the two shallow eyebrows were slightly twisted.

The video time shows that it is exactly 8:58 a.m., and it is the content of the footage captured by the recorder installed on the head of the sub-division of the Detective Division.

Guili City in Qianxi Province is located in a remote area, and the place where the incident occurred is located at the foot of the densely forested Wanzhong Mountain. The first thing that appears in the picture is that the towering giant tree has been moved to the ground, and the stumps and limbs can be seen everywhere.

The two 5-star captains rushed forward along the bloody road, as if a huge force had struck suddenly, knocking the two of them away.

The screen swirled, and in a chaotic voice, one of the captains could be heard calling, "Control center, request for support! There is a level 7 vortex door open, request for support..."

Before the words fell, I saw a little light in front of me suddenly explode, and the picture of the earthquake was blurred for a while, and the sound was drowned out.

Immediately afterwards, an extremely long unidentified object wrapped around the neck of another 5-star captain, and before he could even resist, he saw that the 5-star captain was separated from his head......

The video was only less than a minute, and after Zhang Yue watched it, he handed the tablet back to the middle-aged woman with a cold face.

"Inform Xiao Nanbei that he will command the operation, and Peng Dingfang, the captain of the 7th detachment of the General Division, will cooperate with the operation and approve the use of [Space Source Energy Lock] to go to the scene to close the door of the whirlpool; Xin Kexin led a team of [cleaning team] to be responsible for amnestics and other related aftermath work.

In addition, the list of all the members and captains who died in the Qianxi Guili branch will be reported and compensated for the death. The relevant archives of this matter are immediately blocked, and the first level is intensified to avoid leakage. Hurry up!"

"Yes!"

The middle-aged woman turned around and hurried out of the office, Zhang Yue walked to the floor-to-ceiling glass, looked at the cloudy sky of the magic capital, and lowered his brows.

After a while, he spoke: "Please ask a [Mystic Speller] to go to Kyoto, and the Qingwang Mansion and other murders are probably related to the Vortex Gate that has been frequently opened recently. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a stack of white paper on his desk fly up, and quickly closed into a human figure whose face he couldn't see clearly.

"Yes, sir. ”

A cold voice replied to Zhang Yue's order without emotion, and after that, pieces of white paper flew away one after another, piercing through the glass and into the distance.

Zhang Yue closed his eyes with a sigh of relief, and muttered to himself: "Hope, my guess is wrong!"

…………

9:56 a.m. Wanzhong Mountain, Guili City, Qianxi Province

After several huge tremors, the rolling mountains of the mountains have collapsed, and the dense jungles have been blasted into dust, and the dust is flying and a mess.

A battle had just ended, and the Gate of the Level 7 Vortex that enveloped the entire foot of the mountain was gradually closing in a powerful wind.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the mountain, a tall man named Ozaki is clinging to a half-sliding hillside.

At the foot of the hillside, a village of tiles and farmhouses has been destroyed. A young woman dressed in red floated in mid-air, chanting a spell as the mountain dwellers of the village all sleepwalked silently towards the foot of the mountain.

"Xing'er, hurry!"

As soon as Sui Xing finished closing the door of the whirlpool, he heard the roar of the third uncle, Xie Sansi.

Xie Sansi's palms spread angrily, trying his best to control a 5-cubic-meter water-shaped prison. Trapped in it was an extremely burly, exotic charm beast.

Due to the previous battle, the elemental power was already consumed a lot. At this time, Xie Sansi was already at the end of his crossbow, and the badly injured enchanter beast was still struggling to break through the water prison.

Then the star wind flew quickly to Xie Sansi's side, raised his arms and raised his palms to push forward, and a strong wind rose on the ground around the charm beast.

[Isolated], an invisible transparent cage trapped the charm beast, and the water prison completely collapsed into droplets.

The members of the Suixing Squad have been on the front lines for many years, and have fought a variety of exotic creatures thousands of times. But one of the three enchanting beasts I met this time was level 7!

If it weren't for Sui Xing's breakthrough and successful promotion to the high-level second-rank, and Ozaki and Red Lotus also broke through to the high-level third-rank, I'm afraid that the team with a brilliant record would also be folded here today.

A humanoid succubus about 3 meters tall with an extremely long tail. Its tail is covered with a layer of extremely hard, scaly object, which is ridged at the very end, like an arrow.

The beast was injured by the combined efforts of Sui Xing and the others, but it was still very stubborn and kept hitting the inner wall of the air cage created by [Isolation]. The tail that was more than 5 meters long kept waving and sweeping, but it was no longer powerful because it was injured.

The beast has two red horns on its head, and its entire face resembles that of a creature called a baboon on Earth, with a pair of fangs, arms that are longer than the knees, and three fingertips on each hand like knives.

He roared hoarsely, his eyes fixed on the direction of the whirlpool gate that had been sealed by the star.

Sui Xing's hands were folded and stretched to the sides, and two black chains glowing with a faint black aura flew out from between her palms, and quickly swung towards the phantom beast, binding it firmly. Then, she quickly opened the small debris space that had been used for Fan Wujiang's experiments, and included the charm beast in it.

After doing all this quickly, Sui Xing shouted at the young woman in red, "Red Lotus! ”

The two rushed to the young man nicknamed Crazy at the same time, whose real name was Zhang Dafeng.

The woman in red named Red Lotus, after checking the madman's injuries, raised her hand to show a bottle of mixture.

"The tip of the tail of the charm beast is highly poisonous, but fortunately, the madman has [Mizuhime] protection. It's okay, the poison of the blood amaranth can remove the remaining poison. It's just that you'll be in a coma for a few days, and then you can wake up and recuperate. ”

Red Lotus said as she smeared the powder from the bottle on the madman's injured back.

Sui Xing furrowed his brows and stared at the unconscious man without blinking.

Honglian didn't look up at her, but said indifferently: "Xing'er, the madman should block the tail sweep blow of the charm beast for you." If I had been near you at the time, I would have been the one who stood in the way. You're the strongest of all of us, and once you're knocked out, we can't escape. So, you don't need to feel guilty. ”

"Red Lotus, I understand. Don't do it again, though. I can't afford it!"

With that, the star turned and leaped up, riding the wind to the point where the whirlpool gate was closed.

Ozaki and Xie Sansi worked together to repair the collapsed mountain and came here.

There were originally a few large rocks at the foot of the mountain, but they had been blasted into powder. In the previous battle, everyone saw some kind of rune on the stones.

The [Return and Resurrection Spell] can temporarily restore damaged objects, and after Xie Sansi uses this spell, the powder and gravel quickly return to the place as if time has gone back, revealing their original appearance.

"What kind of secret spell rune is this? I've never seen it!" Xie Sansi said.

Suixing and Ozaki also shook their heads at the same time. I saw that the dark green pattern outlined on the stone block was extremely complex, and there seemed to be some kind of symbol that looked like words.

Xie Sansi analyzed: "Following that person to chase here, I will actually encounter such a large whirlpool gate opening, these secret spell runes must be related to the whirlpool gate." ”

"Yeming, have you taken a picture?" asked Sui Xing.

Ye Ming, the remote technical support on the other side of the headset, quickly replied: "It's taken down, boss, I'm doing an analogy check." ”

"The person who is tracking down must have something to do with this secret spell, maybe some kind of spell he did.

He wasn't a [prophet], just an ordinary fire wizard, and he couldn't have expected the Vortex Gate to open here. Moreover, after chasing here, he lost his trace and elemental aura. So, I think he must have something to do with the exotic.

He doesn't appear to be parasitic or controlled by [Soul Eater]. Third uncle, this matter is getting more and more complicated. ”

Regarding the truth of the Bowan War, she already had relatively clear clues.

But today, following a line, tracking the man to the bottom of this remote mountain, he encountered a tough battle. Everything seemed to be plunged into a fog again, and Sui Xing faintly felt that what he had investigated might be beyond the scope of his original imagination.

Perhaps, some of the dark claws hidden beneath the deep current have begun to move.

"If this person is really connected to the foreign land, does that mean that someone was involved with the foreign land during the Bowan War?!!" Ozaki said in shock.

Sui Xing shook his head, Xie Sansi squinted, and said, "I'm afraid, it's not a relationship that was only involved in that battle..."

"Boss," everyone's headsets rang at the same time, "Intercepted the energy signal fluctuation, someone is coming to your side!"

"Withdraw!"

Without half a word of nonsense, the well-fought Suixing squad quickly evacuated from the foot of Wanzhong Mountain.

A minute later, 17 officers of the Detective Division in uniform arrived at the scene.
