117 I slew him
There is an absolute difference in strength, and small tricks will not play any role at all.
The main thing is that Cross is still too weak to resist even an ice ring technique. If it were Hawk and Link instead, the Ice Ring would only affect their movement to a certain extent, and it would be impossible to freeze them in place.
At most, it's just slowing them down.
After a moment of pause, Roland summoned two mage hands, grabbed the Cross Ice Sculpture, and walked all the way back.
Out of the jungle, walk through the city gates, through the bustling streets, and finally return to the Magic Tower Square.
Along the way, everyone saw this humanoid ice sculpture, and they were so frightened that they hid aside, and the timid woman even blindfolded herself with her eyes, not daring to look at it.
No one bothered Roland, even if the guards at the city gate saw a corpse, they didn't bother Roland, but just took two steps back as if nothing happened.
Cross is also a bit of a well-known person in Del Bon City, after all, he is also responsible for many of the external work of the Magic Tower.
Now seeing his ice corpse being carried away by Roland, many people were surprised, and began to pass on the news to their acquaintances.
By the time Roland returned to the Magic Square, the important forces already knew that the magic apprentice Cross was dead, and it was suspected that Roland had done it.
Arriving at the door of the magic tower, the two guards looked at Cross floating in mid-air, looking at him apparently dead, first surprised, and then hanging their heads.
They feel like they don't know anything and don't dare to ask.
Roland entered the magic tower and said, "Close the door, except for the people related to the magic tower, no one else is allowed to enter or leave." ”
Two guards immediately went over and closed the heavy stone door, and they volunteered to stand outside to help the guards.
They didn't dare to stay in the magic tower anymore.
Roland continued to carry Cross's ice corpse up to the second floor, just in time to see Vivien coming down from the upper floor with two new little magic apprentices.
Vivien saw Roland's face beaming at first, then at Cross, wondering how the man had been caught in the air, and then she was suddenly startled and covered her mouth with her hands.
She couldn't feel Cross's mental power, and was clearly dead.
The two little magic apprentices were gangsters and no strangers to the dead, and the two of them looked at Cross for a while, then timidly hid behind Vivien.
Roland carefully put Cross's body down and straightened it.
Ice magic is not so easy to dissipate, and at this time, Cross still maintains his previous movements, so he can easily 'stand' up.
"Ring the golden bell and let everyone assemble."
Roland's tone was a little low and a little stunned.
Vivien put down her hands and walked to the table, ringing the golden bell on it.
There was a crisp tinkling sound, and Vivien glanced at Cross's corpse and saw the struggle and fear on the latter's face, feeling a little sad.
Although Cross didn't have a very good relationship with her, she still felt a little uncomfortable that such an acquaintance died.
Soon the apprentices were coming out of their rooms or from the magic laboratory.
When they saw Cross's corpse, they were all shocked, and a few of them even cursed, saying that someone dared to bully the head of the magic tower.
Roland ignored them, just stood quietly.
Soon the magic apprentices were all assembled, and they were already angrily clamoring for revenge, but when they saw Roland standing quietly, his expression like a waveless well water, his clamor slowly subsided, and finally became completely quiet.
Vivien also walked into the queue of magic apprentices with two young magic apprentices.
Roland's gaze swept over the magic apprentices, all of whom were there, including Jerry, who went to see his grandchildren.
"As you can see, Cross is dead."
Everyone didn't react much at this time.
Then Roland added: "I killed it." ”
There was a bang, like an explosion, the sound of surprise, the sound of inhaling cold air, one after another, and then everyone began to talk to each other.
But soon they were quiet again, and looked at Roland fixedly, wanting to hear his explanation.
In the eyes of all magic apprentices, Roland is a very kind and considerate apprentice, and if he really kills, there must be a valid reason.
"You should know that I have been investigating the disappearance of the girl before." Roland looked at the crowd and paused.
Vivien glanced at the Cross Ice Sculpture and asked, "Is he the murderer?" ”
"It's him." Roland nodded, and then said with some discomfort: "If possible, I don't want to be my acquaintance. ”
Everyone was silent, although Cross was not a particularly outstanding and talented person, but it was not a happy thing to watch an acquaintance die.
"Is it 100% sure it's him?" Vivien asked timidly.
In fact, she didn't question Roland, but used this method to give Roland 'eyes' and create an atmosphere and reason for Roland to continue talking.
So Roland told all the things he had investigated during this time, including Cross's plan to lead the way to the east and almost hit the wrong thing.
"He's a very smart man, but it's a pity that his brain isn't used in the right way." Roland sighed, "I brought Kroos's body back just to tell you. Even if you don't want to be a good person, then don't do bad things, don't be a bad person. A lot of sons of gold, including me, like people like Kroos, who have no bottom line, because he will make us kill people and have an excuse. I don't let my heart be condemned. ”
Cold sweat broke out on the foreheads of all the magic apprentices.
Especially the two little magic apprentices, looking at Roland's eyes, they were both afraid and adored.
"Jerry, you go and tell Cross's family to come and claim the body, and if you can, have their head of the family come and talk to me."
The gray-haired Jerry immediately replied, "Understood, I'll do it right away, Vice President." ”
At this time, it was a hundred kilometers away in the mountains.
Beta found a mountain spring water, parked the carriage nearby, and then took out the cutlery from the space backpack, and then took out the black wolf steak that had just been baked, and grilled it.
Lisa, the little maid, was doing other chores on the side.
Beta brushed the steak with spices, and when he was happy, he was suddenly stunned, and after a long pause of more than ten seconds, he turned his head to the little maid behind him and said, "Lisa, the murderer who bullied you has been found." ”
Lisa's face turned pale with a look of fear, the events of that day were too terrible for her. She was silent for a while, and asked with a little resentment in her eyes, "Who is it?" ”
She knew that her master had a special ability to talk to the other children of gold through the air.
"Cross, the magic apprentice of the Magic Tower."
As soon as these words came out, Lisa squatted on the ground blankly, Roland is the vice president, since the murderer is a person from the Magic Tower, it is impossible for Roland to kill, at least Lisa thinks so.
And Roland is kind to herself, and she doesn't want to force Roland to kill Cross, after all, she is a little maid who knows how to repay her kindness and know how to advance and retreat.
But Beta continued: "Brother Roland has frozen Cross into an ice sculpture, and if he is dead, you will be at ease in the future." ”
After being stunned for two or three seconds, Lisa's eyes shone brightly.
The whole face is happy as if it can shine.
