Chapter 253: Arrest (I)
"Say, what's going on? Why is there such a big thing going on in the royal capital, and you don't know anything about it?
In the war room deep in the palace, Prince Logan slapped his palms on the surface of the long table, questioning his henchmen loudly and hysterically. Under him, there were six strong men with good strength sitting neatly on the left and right. The most powerful of them also have the strength of a Magus and a Legendary Warrior. The first two are even more terrifying. One is a Grand Magus whose magic cultivation is not inferior to that of Flamel, while the other is the pinnacle of a true legendary warrior, enough to be the master knight of any knight school in the Lost Continent.
Any one of these people alone is a powerful character who can stand alone in a large organization. However, at this moment, in the face of Prince Logan's anger, no one dared to take the lead in speaking out with their heads down.
"Anger only makes people lose themselves, Your Royal Highness!"
In the end, it was Logan's left-hand archmagus who spoke first. The white-bearded old man with a shiny head looked thin and weak, but his eyes shone like stars from time to time. In fact, with his strength, he didn't have to stay with Prince Logan at all, but practiced alone like most archmagisers. But he has stayed with Prince Logan since he was born, and he has never left him for decades.
In the words of the Grand Magister himself, "When the fire fills the royal capital, I will naturally leave!" Prince Logan couldn't ask the meaning of this sentence, but he always regarded him as his mentor and elder. At this time, when I heard his advice, most of my anger suddenly subsided, and I sat back in my seat: "You're right, Mr. Medivan! I shouldn't be so impulsive! It's just that I have paid too much for this plan! Now I see that an important part of the plan has failed, and it is really ......."
"It's not time to talk about failure!" Medivan pulled out a vial of golden solution from his bosom and poured it on the table. The moment the golden solution dripped down, the surface of the long table made of fine iron suddenly brightened, and a round golden water wave the size of a palm appeared.
The melodious and lengthy incantation sounded, and Medivan shook his staff gently in a peculiar rhythm, and the stars in his eyes shuttled like fish, dragging countless streamers of light, and then weaving two thundercloud storms. At the same time, the golden waves on the table began to form countless round blisters, as if there was a scorching molten fire buried beneath the water waves.
After a long time, the last spell was finally chanted, and Medivan suddenly slammed the staff on the ground, and all the tiny blisters on the surface of the golden water wave burst into the air at the same time, turning into dozens of brilliant golden balls of light. The balls of light coalesced and connected to each other in mid-air, and soon changed shape, transforming into a golden bird with seven slender tail feathers that resembled the undead by seven or eight points.
The tanuki-sized bird appeared and circled around Medivan several times before finally coming to rest on his shoulder. Without knowing what Medivan had said in its ear, the bird suddenly flapped its wings and disappeared through the ceiling of the war room.
Seeing everyone's confused faces, Medivan explained with a smile: "As long as we can catch the demon who killed the soul last night and force it to show its true face, we can turn the situation around and tell the whole country: this cruel and tyrannical demon is actually Princess Lena's subordinate, and he is killing in the royal capital, in fact, to help Princess Lena clear his name." ”
The legendary warrior on the opposite side clapped his hands in agreement and said, "Your Excellency Medivan is really a good idea! Morrowind Kingdom has suffered a lot from the demon race, and in the eyes of ordinary people, the crime of colluding with demons is ten times more serious than poisoning the nobles!"
The other four powerhouses also chimed in.
Medivan continued to laugh and said, "As for the whereabouts of that demon, it can be handed over to the demon spirit I summoned just now. The prototype of that bird was the seven-tailed lark, a seventh-order demonic beast, and it could sense anomalies in the entire royal capital. As long as the demon dares to appear, it will inevitably be discovered by the seven-tailed lark. When the time comes, the six of us will definitely be able to capture him on the spot!"
"Good!" Prince Logan has absolute trust in Medibunpo. After hearing his plan, he even began to fantasize about how to torture the demon after capturing it, and make it say things like "It's Princess Lena's accomplice" in public.
And Luo Ning, who was in Morrowind Academy, didn't know that he was being targeted by six strong people who couldn't be provoked. At this time, he was in the forging room to persuade the magic bell that had just woken up. The latter was in good health after Wendy's treatment, but after hearing that Princess Lena was imprisoned in the royal prison, she said that she would go and rescue her.
"If you want to die, I won't stop you!" Although Luo Ning said that he would not stop it, his body still leaned against the door, blocking the path of the magic bell.
"But I must warn you: Neo just returned from there last night, and he said that even a hundred of him together might not be able to break through the magical barrier around that cell! If you're confident enough to beat a hundred Neo, give it a try!"
"I ......" Moling was anxious, but he knew his weight very well, his eyes were slightly red, and his eyes gradually became dim.
Seeing that she had listened to her words, Luo Ning continued to persuade: "I have no objection to you doing your best for Princess Lena! But such a meaningless attempt should be avoided! If your mother sees you doing such a stupid thing, she will definitely be heartbroken!"
"My... Mother?" Magic Bell smiled bitterly, "Have you forgotten, Luo Ning, I have had no mother since I was a child!"
Luo Ning felt that there was no need to hide this from the Demon Bell, so he said honestly: "No! Of course you have! Remember the two Night Demon Assassins we met in the Blood Raven? The Red Moon Saint Meryl in their mouths is your biological mother!"
"What?!" the magic bell exploded in his head, and he felt like a lake suddenly thrown into a boulder, becoming undulating and unable to calm down.
"Well, then why did she ......" Magic Bell wanted to ask Ronin why Meryl abandoned her and made her an orphan who "lost her parents". But when her words came to her mouth, a huge panic rose in her heart, and she swallowed the remaining half of the unfinished words.
The magic bell is not good at hiding her thoughts, and it is easy for Ronin to see through her thoughts.
"Meryl has been watching you all the time! She was forced to make that choice in the first place! You have suffered a lot since you lost your parents since you were a child, but have you ever thought about her? She obviously loves you so much, but she wants to force herself to leave you, I am afraid that the damage brought to her by this helplessness is not light!"
