Chapter 324: Followers

Zhao Xu's gaze suddenly fell on the man who stood up, compared to the luxurious clothes of most of the people present, the other party was also wearing a wide and simple robe in this winter, covering up a somewhat thin figure, but it was also a little out of place with the people around him.

Even the poorest five Warlock players can be paired with the Adventurer Outfit presented by Arthur Deluxe.

And Zhao Xu also noticed that the other party was one of the few people who didn't secretly sneer just now.

Except for the five absentees, Zhao Xu basically remembers the demeanor of the remaining twenty-five people from just now to now, which is also the effect of intelligence becoming real.

In particular, he noticed that the other party's tone of admitting his mistake was very gentle, as if he was standing up and reciting.

It is not the kind of hypocrisy that pretends to be unconvinced, nor is it the kind of hypocrisy that is afraid of serious consequences.

As if it were resignation, stand up, recite, finish, and accept the punishment.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Xu also understood.

It turned out that a class of thirty people in front of me had also formed a strict enough society.

And this indifferent and handsome student, being able to stand up also means that he is a substitute for the dead chosen by the small organization of "class".

After Zhao Xu recalled the name of the other party on the information, he stood silently for more than ten seconds, and it was not until someone began to wonder that Zhao Xu raised his hand to signal the other party to come out.

However, he looked at the other students who were about to move, and said directly: "If it's okay, just sit here obediently, otherwise it will be another spell." ”

As he spoke, he raised the blank scroll in his hand, and the invisible pressure made everyone present silent.

For a while, before Zhao Xu didn't know the details of a ruthless person like Zhao Xu who raised his hand and smashed down three or four hundred gold coin scrolls, everyone was more cautious.

After hearing Zhao Xu's command, the indifferent student was silent for a while, but he still followed him out and walked all the way to another adjacent classroom.

"I don't think you look like you're being bullied, do you?" Zhao Xu looked at the student named Eliton and said.

He had memorized the list of personnel for the entire class, and there was also a brief introduction to these students, and of course, the most important part was that each student was a descendant of which family and which mage.

Even which mage or priest or even a big man of Mystra specially asked for an explanation, and it was all clear what needed attention.

Generally, people who are bullied have a weak aura and even walk with their heads down.

It's just that Zhao Xu saw from this Eliton's body a sense of indifference that put life and death aside.

Even players with five resurrection stones have never had this kind of mentality in the game. If you say that you don't shoot to death, you don't necessarily mean that you are really not afraid of death.

"No, if you do, just stand up and admit it." Eliton lowered his head slightly, his voice slightly weaker, and he didn't want to look directly at Zhao Xu.

Zhao Xu suddenly regained the mentality of the apprentice martial artists he had taught under him.

Seeing that the other party was not very cooperative, he also directly began to attack his heart, "Looking at you with a bitter and hateful look, it doesn't look like you will be bullied so much that you can only carry the black pot?" Tell me? ”

It's just that Eliton, who also has black hair and a somewhat pale face due to malnutrition, still hasn't replied positively to Zhao Xu's question.

Zhao Xu could only grin at this, he didn't expect that he would have to be an intimate counselor one day to induce conversations.

It's a pity that he doesn't have any good candidates, otherwise there would be no need to talk nonsense here.

After Eliton in front of him was alone at this time, he could see the melancholy temperament of the other party, with the handsome face in itself, and put it in their university where there were many monks and few porridges, it was all the corners of the girlfriend who had the capital to change his girlfriend once a week by virtue of his appearance and temperament.

"Do you think that a group of people sitting in the next class who are eating and waiting to die in the shadow of their ancestors can help you get revenge? They can't even become mages, so how can they help you? ”

Suddenly, Zhao Xu's tone began to carry the blade from the shop, piercing Eliton's heart little by little, and also made the other party's face slightly faster.

"How do you know I'm going to get revenge?" Eliton said, his voice trembling slightly, "The school's student materials will not publish this kind of material, after all, it is not a glorious thing. The dean's assistant secretary had just come in, and she had heard at most but didn't know much about it. ”

"And she wants to remind you that people like me who have no use value are not at the forefront at all." As he spoke, Eliton looked at Zhao Xu deeply, and his voice was a little high.

He couldn't see through the intentions of the class guide who was leisurely holding his cane at the moment, as if he was waiting for afternoon tea to come.

Because in every way, this man resembles the kind of aristocratic and well-educated scholar.

Therefore, the decisive attitude of the other party just now directly formed a huge contrast, which was so easy to deter everyone. When honest people fight hard, they will be more ruthless.

Suddenly, Eliton remembered some strange hobbies of aristocratic families, and then thought of the two of them staying in the classroom at this time, and a bad chill came over his heart for a while.

On the other side, Zhao Xu looked at the other party's ability to calmly analyze his access to information under this kind of secret memories that pierced his heart, and nodded with satisfaction, at least he knew how to use his brain.

The Elliton in front of him was also from a mage family in Mystra, and finally became a mage in the third generation, meeting the minimum standard of "mage family" issued by Mystra.

Who knows, but it was also in that year that the Eliton family suffered a murder. His grandfather, grandmother, father and brother, added up to no less than three mages, with seven or eight servants, and more than ten members of the family were slaughtered.

It happened that Eliton and his mother returned to their parents' house that day, and they escaped the catastrophe and became orphans and widows.

Zhao Xu, who knew the inside story of the year, looked at the other party, but did not show a sympathetic look, "You know, Arthur's major towns will collect local information every year and feed it back to the 'source of knowledge'. In a murderous murder like your family, local knowledge and historical knowledge can find some context. ”

At this time, Zhao Xu did not admit that he had failed the knowledge test just now.

However, the Monk Priest's Level 1 ability, "Knowledge", allows him to retrieve some local legends and even secret information like a bard.

At this time, Zhao Xu already has a lot of rich means, even if one fails, he can achieve his goal from another channel.

This is also the strong advantage of his mage, dossier, scholar and double elite, two career lines, duplication also means more possibilities.

And after Elleton heard Zhao Xu's words, his face turned a little ruddy,

After realizing that this was not the case, he sighed, "Just the knowledge and skills that don't have any magic power can do this?" ”

"It's, but if your level is high enough, even the truth of some past events can be retrieved by knowledge and skills." Zhao Xu replied.

At this time, Eliton himself was also in deep thought, "Isn't that a spell capable of achieving a more powerful effect?" ”

"What happened back then, do you suspect that there is an inside story?" Zhao Xu faintly heard the meaning of the other party's words.

But Eliton avoided answering.

"Although I have not yet accessed the dossier, I am only judging based on the knowledge I have retrieved. But I can also tell you responsibly that any homicide involving a mage, especially one that has formed a family scale. ”

"It's definitely a joint investigation by the Mistrido department, and unless the Big Seven intervene, no one can cover it up with one hand. The fact that you can still go to school here shows that the incident has been closed. There may be other possibilities for motives, but the fact of the murder is absolutely irrefutable by conclusive evidence. So that murderer is definitely that murderer. ”

Zhao Xu said indifferently, "If you think that the murderer back then is someone else, then I advise you not to work in vain." Because it's true, it's the kind of fraud that doesn't happen in a million, and you can't uncover it with the ability of your guru. ”

Zhao Xu said very firmly before, but in the end, in order to avoid being slapped in the face, he still left a gap.

He believed that Eliton in front of him was not the kind of stubborn fool, and he would not be stupid enough to shout that I would investigate and so on.

But Eliton shook his head directly, "I'm sure the murderer is him." ”

After speaking, he raised his eyes and looked at Zhao Xu with a longing gaze, "But I know that I can't take revenge, the moment I fail the mage assessment, I understand that my path is broken." ”

"Even if I was able to enter here for the second-level 'mentor' professional training with the sympathy and shadow of other mage families, I knew that I had no hope of revenge. Level 16 can only cast a limited number of five-ring spells, and the 'Mentor' class, which doesn't even have a Dao Damage Arcane, how can I succeed in taking revenge! ”

Eliton said with a hint of crying in his voice.

"Oops, what are you crying about, a big man." Zhao Xu didn't have a sympathetic mentality, if the girl on the other side cried, he could comfort him a little.

Hearing Zhao Xu's ridicule, Eliton was not angry, and immediately wiped away his tears, as he had done in the past ten years.

"Midsummer mage, I know you're a mage, and you and those big people in Floating City feel the same danger to me." Eliton said, gasping for breath from emotion.

"Although you pretended to cast a spell with a scroll just now, I still saw that you actually sneaked the dust on the scroll first, and this extra action should be some kind of spellcasting material. And I heard them say that the spell you put is the three-ring spell 'Rain, Snow and Storm', then you are a three-ring mage. ”

Eliton suddenly stood up at this time and bowed deeply towards Zhao Xu, "If you can help me avenge me, I will sell you this life." ”

Zhao Xu couldn't help but be surprised, it was a pity that the other party's observation and perception ability was not to be a priest.

However, it is not easy to become a pastor. When one's own obsession conflicts with one's devotion to the gods, it often makes things uncontrollable.

"Revenge, you have to do it yourself, and others will serve you, then it's not interesting." Zhao Xu refused.

And Eliton didn't raise his head, still kept bowing, "I'm just going to be a 'mentor' in my life, and every time time passes, the gap between me and the enemy gets bigger and bigger, and there is no hope." ”

Eliton gritted his teeth to keep the tears from falling from his eyes.

It was only to a certain point of despair that he persuaded himself to accept this fact.

Zhao Xu smiled lightly, if he said it so deadly, why did he talk nonsense with the other party for so long.

In the spacious sewers of Mystra, there are miserable people who cannot see the light of day.

"What if I could make you a mage?"
