Chapter 55: The Poison of Suspicion (The Third Update!) )
Led by the torches, Reina was accompanied by the sky to Zil's corpse, and a series of curses such as "evil spirits" and "demon seeds" continued to sound around him, and finally all of them were masked by the sobbing cries of female students - they are not only the most outstanding elite of the entire kingdom, but also the pillars of the major magic families.

Zil's body leaned against a large tree in the dense forest, his mouth was slightly open, his expression was very hideous, his face seemed to be scorched, and several surrounding trees also had scorched marks, as if they had been scorched by lightning.
"Reina...... You're optimistic about this place! Zil's companion Apelo pulled Zil's coat open slightly, revealing a cross-shaped wound on his chest, which was also scorched.
"The guy who can hurt people with a sharp blade...... Among us Magisters, only your Warrior Queens can do it! Apelo grabbed Reina's collar and said grief and anger on his face. The firmament also held the imperial weapon on his waist at this time, and some people on the student's side began to show magic marks, and the two sides showed a tense momentum.
"That...... Things haven't been clarified yet, so let's not jump to conclusions. At this time, Rams stood up from the crowd and motioned for Apero to calm his anger, "Brother Reina...... After all, Miss Xuanyi and Qi'er had some misunderstandings before, and now the suspicion is all pointed at her, and I hope you don't cover her up at will, and explain her whereabouts as soon as possible, and we will not be too late to track it down. ”
"Although the little girl looks quite cute...... But sure enough, the barbarians from the other world are always a bunch of barbarian guys......"
The endless chatter pushed Reina and his war queen to the forefront.
After being put down by Apello, Reina squatted down and silently observed Zil's wounds, and before Reina's hand was about to touch Zil's corpse, he was pushed away by Apero and fell to the ground.
"Stop insulting Zil's corpse, evil spirit!" Apero continued to curse Reina.
"Anyway...... Your reaction seems to have been overdone. Reina smiled at Apero, but it only made him angrier—
"You guy! I can even laugh at this time! Apello excitedly raised his hands to release the magic sign, but was held down by the red-robed Magister behind him—it was Vice President Hiss.
"That's enough."
His long, blue phoenix eyes fell on Reina, "Do you have any clues?" ”
"Hmm......" Reina touched his chin and squinted at Zil's corpse, "It's a pity there's no Magus of Light here - if there's any light elemental magic......"
"I've got it here,"
Fryface stepped out of the crowd, holding a small pearl ring in her hand, "This is the magic weapon of the light element, the Holy Light Ring. ”
"Can other elemental mages use it to unleash the power of a light mage?"
"You can only use some low-level magic...... But it's doable. ”
"It's enough to be able to use 'purification'. Can you help me? ”
"Hmm."
At Reina's motion, Fleface put the Holy Light Ring on his hand and slowly approached Zil's corpse.
"Hey, hey, hey...... Why would Vice President Fleface help Reina? Could it be that the rumors of the two kissing at the previous banquet are true? ”
"Didos...... Are you finally going to make an alliance with Ransell......"
The enthusiastic discussion seemed to be saying that the scandal between Reina and Fleface was more explosive than the news of Zil's death.
Fryface and Reina apparently paid no attention to these discussions, and after urging the magic power in their bodies, Fryface approached Zil's corpse wearing the shining Holy Light Ring.
"Slowly approach him, huh...... That's it. ”
Just when everyone didn't understand Reina's intentions, a strange dark red light suddenly flashed behind Zil. Wolfgar frowned slightly, stepped forward and lifted Zil's clothes, and found that under Zil's shoulder blades, there was a subtle tooth mark that was difficult for everyone to notice, and on the back where the tooth mark extended, an extended network of dark red meridians appeared.
"The poison of Yuglon." Reina blurted out lightly, "Zil met the monster before he died. ”
"Monster ...... No way! ”
"It's so quiet ...... night"
"What if you encounter a monster! It's also possible that the monster was devoured after Zil's death! ”
"This can't be," Wolfgar interrupted a furious Apero, "monsters are especially attracted to living creatures with magical powers, and they are not interested in the dead. ”
"Even if that's it...... Could it be that the wound on the chest will be fake? Where is that warrior of yours now? Tell her to come out and confront her now! ”
"Xuanyi's inability to come out is secondary—there are a lot of doubts here." Reina calmly looked at the furious Apero,
"First, it's not that far from our campsite. If Xuanyi were to use the Thunder Sword Technique, you Thunder Magisters should also know that it was absolutely impossible for the roar and shining sound of thunder and lightning to turn a blind eye in front of so many people. ”
"Second, since Qi Yi has been injured so badly, there must be a lot of inconvenience in his body, even if there is any situation, why did he run to such a dangerous place?"
"And the third," Reina's gaze shifted to Apello's furious face, "From discovering that Qi Yi is missing, waking everyone up to look for Qi Er, to finding Qi Er's body, the whole process took less than two hours, according to what Wolf Ga's mentor said on the road, it seems that you did it all alone, Apero Senpai." ”
As soon as Reina's words fell, the students who had unanimously criticized Reina before suddenly became a little hesitant.
"The relationship between Apero and Qi Yi is not so close, right? I remember that at the academy they were always rivals. But then again, Qi Yi has always been so arrogant...... Who would be his friend? ”
And his reaction just now...... It's a bit too much......"
"You guy! Do you suspect that I killed Qi Er! Didn't you say before that Qi Yi had encountered a monster? ”
"It's a monster indeed...... But there is something strange about this wound. ”
While everyone was arguing, Matthew appeared next to Qi Er's corpse.
"Matthew! What are you doing! Don't touch the corpse! ”
Cruise, the deputy commander of the expedition, lifted up the fat Matthew.
"Cruise, let him speak." Wolfgar squinted his eyes and came to Matthew with his hands behind his back, "The old man asked you to join our expedition because of your knowledge of beasts. Can you tell from the wound what kind of monster caused it? ”
"Hmm......" Matthew began to explain his speculation to the crowd before he could thank Wolfgar for his appreciation, "like such a thin tooth mark...... It should only be inflicted by demonized creatures of the bat species - but don't forget that last year was winter, and this year's bat species won't wake up from hibernation until at least summer, even if they are. ”
"Could it be ...... 'exorcist'?" Fleface said the name in a daze, but his eyes stayed on Reina.
"A rumored magister capable of wielding monsters?"
"It's not a rumor," Wolfgar's gaze looked a little anxious, and he glanced at Bonnie, another archmage on the side, who immediately understood, and urged the magic mark to freeze Qi Er's corpse, and the seventh-order water magic completed this action almost instantly.
"We'll investigate Qi Er's matter slowly, and we'll send Bonnie to escort him back to his dead body." Wolfga's gaze fell on Reina's, "At least...... Before we return to the royal capital at the end of our expedition, you must retrieve Xuanyi...... Otherwise, regardless of whether Xuanyi is really related to this matter or not, we can only conclude that she absconded in fear of crime......"
"Please rest assured Tutor Wolfga...... I'll definitely get Xuanyi back. ”
Reina's usual calm face...... There was a rare hint of awe.
