The night was long, and at this moment, I don't know how many people in Port Louis have no intention of sleeping.
Abandoned warehouse in Baifan District, Fountain Square in Luqu District, Harbour Warehouse in Monsoon District, Magnison Villa in Wisteria District...... Although the high-level members of the Port Louis Council did not hesitate to send troops to set up roadblocks to forcibly block these areas in order to stabilize social order, it still could not stop the growing rumors, after all, many people have seen the tragic situation in these areas with their own eyes, and it is difficult for the council to hide it even if it wants to, not to mention that there are a large number of innocent victims who have been affected.
Of course, the top of the council knew what was involved, but fortunately, the Cathedral of Divine Radiance, which had caused the turmoil, sent priests to discuss with them the follow-up issues, and finally agreed to attribute the source of the turmoil to the notorious heretical organization of the continent, the "Subversive Fangs"!
Late in the wee hours of the morning, Clara accompanied her mother to find Auston, the Templar Captain of the Divine Radiance Cathedral, in the White Sails District, and informed them of the purpose of their plea.
Auston agreed for two reasons, one is Clara's mother's friendship with Bishop Christopher, and the other is that he suspects that the mysterious man and woman who attacked Magnison's villa are likely to be related to the "subversive fangs".
Who is Magnison? He was a well-known alchemist in Port Louis, in terms of his status. The guards of the villa residences will certainly not be far behind. However, the intruders forced the fortification of the villa. He even hijacked Master Magnison, so you can imagine the strength of the intruder!
Auston hadn't heard of any great powerhouses coming to Port Louis recently, and then thought of the "Subversive Fangs" that suddenly appeared in the White Sails District to ambush them during the day, so he naturally suspected the intruders on the "Subversive Fangs", because in the entire Port Louis, except for them, they were the only ones who had the strength to forcibly break through Master Magnison's villa garrison head-on.
As for the plan to rescue Master Magnison that Clara said in the end, Auston agreed on the surface, but in fact he didn't think so. As long as he is sure that the intruder is a member of the "Subversive Fangs", he will definitely not let the other party go!
The antagonism between the Radiant Sanctuary and the Subversive Fangs is not a matter of a day or two, but an immortal feud forged with blood over countless years, and it is undoubtedly a fantasy to let the two sides spare each other.
If it weren't for Auston's fear that his rash actions would lead to the death of Master Magnison, which would have caused a bad impact, otherwise according to his character, he would have been killed directly in the morning!
In the attitude of "subverting the fangs", the "Radiant Templar" has always advocated that it is better to kill mistakes than to let them go!
Auston is not the only one who has been deeply influenced by this thinking, but the vast majority of people within the Radiant Church.
Immersed in alchemy for many years, Clara certainly didn't know what Auston really thought in his heart, but Clara's mother couldn't help but show a trace of worry in her eyes when she looked at Auston, even though she couldn't see any clues from Auston's expressionless face. But she is good at dealing with people, she will always be particularly accurate in looking at people, perhaps because of a woman's innate accurate intuition. She sensed an inexplicable danger in Auston, not for them, but for Magnison!
Although she and Magnison have rarely been in touch since their marriage broke down, she would never want to watch Magnison die lightly, after all, they have been married for many years, and they still have a little affection in their hearts.
She didn't know if it was right or wrong to find Auston, but she didn't have any choice.
……
"It's dawn."
In the spacious and bright underground room, Magnison's teacher closed the thick book in his hand and suddenly spoke.
Xia Lan, who was sitting on the chair and seemed to be recuperating with his eyes closed, opened his eyes slightly, swept away the sleepiness of his body and brain, and after he was fully conscious, he looked sideways at Adelina who had been guarding him all night, only to see that she was still as indifferent as ever, and there was no trace of tiredness in her fiery red vertical pupils.
"Adelinea, are you tired?"
"Mr. Xialan, I'm not tired."
Facing Xia Lan's concern, Adelina said with an unchanged face.
Xia Lan nodded, after confirming that Adelina was indeed not affected by sleep, he stood up and glanced around the real room, Magnison was still obsessively pondering on the Vientiane Refining Array, judging from his languishing appearance, it seemed that he had also not slept all night, and his teacher was in front of the bookshelf, pulling out another book and reading it as if no one was around.
"Nothing happened during my break, did it?" Xia Lan's voice was a little hoarse.
"No, they're very honest." Adrina glared at Magnison and the old man.
"Where's it up there?" Charland Road.
"Again, there was no movement." Adelina said.
"Thank you for your hard work." Xia Lan said lightly, slowly walked to the edge of the Vientiane Refining Formation, and looked at Magnison lying on it, he frowned. "It's an eyesore!"
Bang -
When the old man heard the sudden noise in the room, he immediately turned his head to look at Xia Lan, especially when he noticed Magnison who was curled up and coughing and moaning in pain under the wall of the room, his face suddenly changed, his brows were slightly angry, and before he could speak, Xia Lan's words instantly blocked his unhappiness.
"Please check the refining formation again."
"What do you suspect Magnison did on it?" The old man knew the meaning of Xia Lan's words as soon as he heard it.
"Yes." Xia Lan glanced at Magnitson by the wall. "I don't believe anyone who has studied the refining formation formation for a night and won't do anything!"
"What if he doesn't?" The old man frowned.
"I'll apologize to him." Xia Lan said lightly.
"Good! Remember what you say. ”
Although the old man was extremely reluctant to see Magnison, he was his only disciple after all, and he could show up to expose Magnison's conspiracy. can make him ruined with his own hands. Because these are the sins that he deserves. However, if someone kills him for no reason, then the nature is different, and as a teacher, he will inevitably come forward to defend it.
The old man began to examine it carefully in the Vientiane Refining Array, and as time passed, his face became more and more ugly.
"You're right, the refining formation did make him move. Although he handled the details very well, as the master of the refining array, even the slightest flaw on it could not hide from my eyes. The old man looked at Magnison and sighed with a disappointed expression. Magnison, why are you doing this? ”
"Huh...... Teacher, he doesn't believe me, I don't believe him either, do you really think he won't kill me afterwards? Magnison leaned against the wall, stared at Xia Lan with resentful eyes, and said, "Put yourself in their shoes, will you let go of the people who plotted against you?" ”
"But, haven't you thought about the consequences?" The old man sighed. "You're ruining your last chance of life!"
"Vitality? My life was completely ruined by the time you sent that information! Magnison looked at the old man and laughed wildly. When the time comes, once the plagiarism is exposed. What face do I have to live in disgrace? ”
"This qiē is the result of your own fault, if you did not plagiarize and steal Baidel's research results. You are still a respected alchemist in the alchemy world! But I don't understand, why would you do this? The old man smiled bitterly.
"Teacher, because you're dead, and I'm still alive." Magnison said in a decadent voice, "So, you won't understand. ”
"I really don't understand, I haven't understood you for many years." The old man said.
"Mr. Xia Lan, do you need to kill him?"
Adelina had been silent, and asked Xia Lan for instructions.
"No, he still has the value of being alive for the time being." Xia Lan shook her head.
Aderina's clenched sword hung down, and the strong killing intent that remained in the vertical pupils could not be dissipated, she suddenly turned her head to look at the door of the real yàn room, and said in a cold voice: "Someone is coming." ”
She was right, someone had come, and it wasn't Clara, but the villa guard she had wounded.
"Your Excellencies, in the lower Donnaxiu, I have sent you materials on the orders of the young lady."
Donasius was no longer as domineering as he had been, and he was unusually respectful when dealing with Charan and Adrina.
"Where's Clara?" Xia Lan said with a cold face.
"The young lady was so frightened that she was unwell, so she had to be assigned to come down." Donnaxiu said with a natural expression.
Unfortunately, no matter how much he tried to hide it, anyone knew he was lying.
Xia Lan didn't mean to pursue it, and said, "What about the materials?" ”
"The materials are in the room above the real room, if you need it now, have it sent down immediately." Donner Monk.
"Kuài!" Xia Lan said expressionlessly.
"Please wait a moment."
With that, Donnasius turned around and walked towards the stairs above the room, and after a while, he saw guards carrying large and small boxes and walking down, which soon piled up into a small mountain.
"Your Excellency, all the materials have been shipped."
When there were no more guards in the room, Donnaxiu's figure appeared at the right time.
"I need to check it out."
As she spoke, Xia Lan's eyes looked at the old man and gestured.
The old man nodded, came to the hill-shaped boxes and opened them one by one, and after seeing the materials inside, he carefully observed them and put them down, then opened another box, and so on.
"There is no problem with the material." After checking the materials in the last box, the old man said to Xia Lan.
"Without further ado, please start reshaping my hands now!" ――
