Chapter 11: The Magician and the Dead Apostle

Zhenyu looked at Bazete, who was still a little green in front of her, with short reddish-brown hair, godly eyes, and a beautiful face that naturally exuded heroism, and the dark brown suit on her body added to the heroic spirit on her body. It's just that I haven't been tempered, and now I obviously don't have the confidence I had when I participated in the Fifth Holy Grail War. If it is purely based on age, Zhenyu is not qualified to say this, because the two are the same age, but now, the identity of the magician is indeed very useful......

When Mayu looked at Bazet, she also observed the man in front of her, some delicate faces, looking very good-looking, but this was not the focus of her attention, her attention was more on those hands, white and slender, slender fingers, from the outside, these hands are more suitable for playing the piano than holding weapons, but Bazet, who is proficient in martial arts, has sensitively noticed traces of training.

"Bazet?" Nero asked beside him, waking up a somewhat distracted Bazette.

"Huh? Yes, my family is none other than Mark Remis. ”

"No wonder ......" Mao Yu nodded clearly, the Inheritance Protector is a magic characteristic that is different from the magic circuit, so True Yu senses a different magical aura from ordinary magicians on Bazete.

"May I ask who you are?"

"Nero didn't say? Let me introduce myself, Maba Asagami, from the Far East. ”

"Asagami Maha?" Bazette repeated, "Fourth Magician? ”

"Well, it's me." Zhenyu nodded in acknowledgement, then looked at the man and woman who fell to the ground and asked, "By the way, what are you doing in other magicians' workshops?" Hey, this woman's ...... It seems that half of the body is Deadcast? It's weird that the human and Dead Apostles are in balance. ”

Mayu squatted down and observed it carefully. The woman was about twenty years old, very beautiful, and should be of pure Western European appearance from the outside, with soft wavy golden hair draped behind her, her eyes tightly closed, and her complexion was fairer than that of ordinary Caucasians, but she had an unhealthy white color, like the skin of a dead man, which should have been caused by the blood of half of the dead apostles in her body. The woman's breath of life is very weak, her breathing seems to be absent, and even her heartbeat is very slow.

This situation, like a synthesis of a human being and a dead apostle, is neither a living nor a dead apostle.

"She's one of Bazet's targets." Nero said, "As for me, of course it's boring! ”

"The Clock Tower's mission?"

"That's right, it's a task given to me by the department...... The owner of this magic workshop, Magician Robert, is considered a traitor and a threat because he has violated the laws of the Magic Society, so my purpose this time is to bring him back to the Magic Society. After a pause, Bazett added: "Life or death." ”

"That's really the case...... "Mayu nodded knowingly, the main purpose of those guys in the clock tower is this woman, right? As for the traitor or something, if it's just a Dead Apostle transformation experiment, then this thing is probably unlucky to be the object of the food incidentally. However, Zhen Yu raised his head and asked, "Anyway, how long have you been a member of the Magic Association?" Exposed to such a dangerous task so quickly? ”

"Less than half a year ......"

Nero clasped his hands on his chest and said, "So you're still a novice!" It's no wonder that the previous performance looked inexperienced, and the traps were stepped on twice. ”

“…… It's because I'm not good at academics. ”

"Not necessarily." Zhen Yu shook his head and asked with some curiosity: "This kind of dangerous mission, no one in your department is leading?" Just let you a newcomer come over and do it? ”

"Well, that's true, because in the original assessment, Magician Robert's strength was very average, and he didn't even break through the stone ladder level, so he ......"

"I see......"

is similar to what Zhenyu guessed, the little girl in front of her was obviously betrayed, even if Robert's magic level is weak, this kind of killing task will generally not only send novices, but at least one or two more experienced "seniors" will lead, and novices are generally just "long insights". Especially after Bazet was still a famous family, if he died not long after joining the clock tower, the reputation of the clock tower was not very good. It seems that not only the decision-makers at the top, but also the magicians in the middle and lower departments are fighting fiercely. In other words, the nature of the magician is destined to have a whirlpool of power struggles within the association.

"Hey, millennial heritage...... It's just a bunch of selfish magicians. ”

In fact, it was Zhenyu who thought wrongly, after all, no matter how powerful the battle was, he would not let Bazet come to die in such a mission, otherwise who would join the clock tower after those famous demon sects in the future? This time it was nothing more than an intelligence lapse.

Mayu turned his head to look at the initiator, the magician Robert. Probably in his forties, his appearance is very ordinary, he belongs to the kind that can't be found in the crowd, and his temperament is very bookish, plus a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and many people believe that he is a professor when he is a professor. Most of the magicians from the academy have more or less such characteristics, the difference is that some magicians have lived a lonely life for a long time or have different concepts, and there is always a cold aura on their bodies, which makes people feel very unapproachable, but this Robert gives people the feeling that he is very gentle and harmless to humans and animals.

Although Robert lost his mobility, he did not lose consciousness, his face was a little pale, it should be caused by the pain of the severed limbs on his body, looking at his injuries, Bazet did not show mercy. He smiled bitterly, "I didn't expect to see the legendary Fourth Magician here!" Even if I worked with those Dead Apostles to develop the Transformation Ritual, I wouldn't be able to attract a big man like you, right? ”

"It was just an accident that I came. As for the Dead Apostle Transformation Ritual? Zhen Yu sneered, "Those old guys in the clock tower know a lot more than you. ”

The longer you live, the more power you have, the more reluctant you are to face death, so it is a good choice for magicians to become a Dead Apostle. The problem is that if it is transformed by the Dead Apostle's blood, not to mention the success rate, even if you come back to life, you will become the family of the Dead Apostle, which is not a good choice, so the Dead Apostle Transformation Ritual came into being, and the representative figure is the White Wing Gong.

"Besides......" Zhen Yu's eyes swept over the magic array drawn on the hall, some strange runes in it he had seen once in the Death Apostle's Sanctuary, obviously not a stall, he pointed to the magic array on the ground and said, "Every Dead Apostle can turn you into a Dead Apostle, but ...... Those who can help you complete the Dead Apostle Transformation Ritual and this magic workshop will definitely not be far behind. ”

"But then again," Ma Yu turned his gaze to the woman next to him, "if this is your handiwork, you are worth their investment." I'm curious, which high-ranking Dead Apostle you're working with? ”
