In the middle of the night in the forest, there was a dead silence.

After the noise of the day, the forest at night looked particularly eerie, but for Fangzheng, it was obviously nothing.

"Honestly, what's the point?"

Fang Zheng held his head in his hands and walked boredly in the forest, while looking at Heine not far in front of him.

"You're still not dead on that secret method? Why don't you be serious, wouldn't it be nice to join us directly in the Thousand Worlds Tree? ”

"You have to give it a try, magicians are such stubborn people."

"So why are you pulling me?"

Fang Zheng was really a little puzzled, because after discovering the old man's body in the morning, Heine found himself and the flowers. Originally, Fang Zheng thought that the other party had finally figured it out, but he didn't expect Heine to ask the two to take care of his sister Rosalind.

That's it, anyway, the little girl is quite well-behaved and sensible, and she can watch a day with relish when she puts a pleasant goat. What Fang Zheng didn't expect was that in the evening, Heine actually found him again and invited her to go with him to track down the inheritance and the whereabouts of the murderer.

This made Fang Zheng a little puzzled, but if she couldn't figure it out, she still followed.

"But aren't you here too?"

"It's coming, it's coming, but I'm thinking about ending this farce sooner, and it seems that Webb guy is going to play the detective, but I don't have the heart to do it, and I'm not interested in reasoning. A simpler and more straightforward way to catch the killer is to catch it directly at the scene of the crime..............."

Saying this, Fang Zheng clenched his little fist and waved it.

"It's time for this farce to end!"

As he spoke, Fang Zheng looked at Heine.

"What about you? Still don't give up on that secret method of warmth? ”

"Actually, I've dealt with the beast once."

"Oh, I've heard that."

Fang Zheng was not surprised by Heine's words, because he was the first discoverer of the first victim, Ryori Kano, and according to Heine's description at the time, he was in the castle looking for a "puzzle" when he was attacked by some kind of beast, and then he followed the beast to the hall to find the body of Ryori Kano who was impaled on an angel.

"I was very unhappy that I couldn't tell the winner, so I was going to come back and try it again."

"So what does this have to do with me?"

"I want you to be a witness."

Heine smiled at the red ponytail, the smile on that handsome face would definitely scream if it was a real girl——— but Fang Zheng naturally did not react.

"Okay, okay, I don't care, I might be able to find the murderer sooner after you, and it's good to get it done early and go home early."

While the two were talking, they had already walked to the clearing at the edge of the forest, where there was a pedestal, and the part on which the statue should have been placed was empty, but there was no need to think about it, it was supposed to be an angel.

"Angels become wild beasts, gazing at the sky in the west and devouring the sun."

Looking at the handwriting on the pedestal, Heine took out his invitation and glanced at it, then whispered to himself. Then, he took a closer look at the pedestal and stretched out his hand.

"Boom Rumble ........."

With a slight whisper, the pedestal slowly moved back, and then a pitch-black tunnel appeared in front of the two of them.

"Not bad."

Seeing this scene, Fang Zheng couldn't help but whistle.

"You're a lot better than that guy."

"It's just a little clue."

As he spoke, Heine walked into the tunnel, followed by Fang Zheng.

After entering the tunnel, Fang Zheng saw Heine standing there, and then he closed his eyes and whispered to himself.

"Let's circulate."

The next moment, I saw that Heine's body was instantly shrouded in knight's armor, and at the same time, there was an extra spear in his hand——— seeing this scene, Fang Zheng's expression couldn't help but be stunned.

"Hey, I said, are you serious?"

"Huh? What the? ”

Heine turned his head and looked at Fang Zheng in surprise, as if he didn't understand what she meant.

"What do you say you don't use a gun......... Don't you know the ancient spearman Lucky E? ”

“……… Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean? ”

"That is to say, people who use guns have been very unlucky since ancient times."

Speaking of this, Fang Zheng also added in passing.

"And they all died miserably."

“……………”

Hearing this, Heine didn't know what to say for a while, so he could only cough, turn around and continue walking.

The sound of silent footsteps echoed in the secret passage, and the two of them walked forward one after the other, there was no light in the dark secret passage, but this was naturally not a big problem for Heine and Fangzheng.

“—————”

Sure enough, it didn't take long for both of them to stop, and even if there was no light, they both saw the darkness that was entrenched in the darkness ——— deepened by the darkness.

"This is the beast you're talking about? It's ugly. ”

Fang Zheng narrowed his eyes, carefully looked at the monster in front of him, and gave his opinion. For Fang Zheng, who had dark vision, the monster in front of him was really not very good-looking, it looked like a mixture of a spider and a wolf, and its fur was covered in blood and mud. At the same time, Heine also clenched his spear and assumed a fighting stance, and then he looked at the monster and whispered.

"See you again."

"Hoo ———!!"

Without replying, the black monster swooped down from the other side of the passage, raising its claws and swinging at Heine in front of him. At the same time, Heine, who turned into a knight of the spear (really unlucky), also lowered his center of gravity, and the spear in his hand stabbed out at the black monster.

However, to Heine's surprise, the monster did not attack him, instead of attacking him, it swung its claws directly into its spear, cutting a notch into the sharp head.

"I see."

Heine whispered to himself, and then quickly swung the spear, only to see that the spear began to change in his hand, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a long sword. Obviously, he also knew what the monster was fighting in mind, and the other party obviously wanted to defeat his weapon first, and then slowly torture himself.

In the face of Heine's counterattack, the monster jumped up again, bouncing around in the secret passage at a speed completely unimaginable to humans, like a bouncy ball, and in the blink of an eye, it came behind Heine, and then it stabbed Heine in the back of the heart with a claw again.

However.........

"I knew you would."

As Heine spoke, the armor on the young man in front of him suddenly melted, and then turned into a chain form, and the monster was restrained. At the same time, Heine turned around and raised his sword at the monster.

"Then, please let me take a good look at your true colors."

At this moment, the monster opened its mouth as if crying.

The next moment, piercing screams filled the entire secret passage.

At the same time, Heine's body trembled suddenly, and then he fell limply. And the chains that bound the monster also regained their original form at this time. At this moment, the monster stretched out its right hand to Heine's chest——— and then a small white hand suddenly appeared from the side and grabbed the monster's claws.

"I say, have you forgotten my existence?"

Before the words fell, Fang Zheng jumped up and punched the monster in the nose, directly knocking it out. It was only at this time that Fang Zheng turned his head and looked at Heine who was lying on the ground and fell into a coma.

"Hey, it's okay!"

She grabbed Heine and slapped him in the face with a crackling slap, which brought Heine to his senses.

"I, I get ............"

"Got what?"

"Why are Ryori Kano and Old Man Orlock so easily killed by this monster........."

Feeling the weakness in his body, Heine also gasped and spoke. In fact, since the beginning of the incident, Heine has always had doubts in his heart, Rishi Kano is the representative of the Circle Sect, and Orlock is the veteran of butterfly magic, their magic skills must be extraordinary, and taking a step back, even if the enemies they encounter are really quite strong, these two people will not even be able to escape.

What's more, judging from the battle just now, the other party is just a beast.

But now, Heine finally understands why Ryori Kano and Orlock died at the hands of the beast.

Its cry can have an effect on magic markings.

In fact, the moment he heard the scream, the magic mark on Heine's body immediately lost its effect.

The more powerful the magician, the deeper the connection with the magic mark, so if you run into problems, you are more likely to get into trouble. This was the case with Heine, and so was Ryori Kano and Orlock. Although they are all quite powerful magicians, once the magic mark is completely stopped, then they will be like robots that have lost power, and they can only be slaughtered by others.

Fortunately, not everyone has been affected.

"Are you alright?"

"I should have something to do with what you said."

Grabbing Heine by the collar, Fang Zheng ran quickly towards the depths of the secret passage, stalking the beast to death.

"I'm not like you fragile magicians, magic engraving stuff, I don't want it! Stand for me! ”

At this moment, the red ponytail suddenly stopped, and then Heine saw her right hand swiped from the hair ornament, and then a bright red, burning and flaming greatsword appeared out of thin air, and the red ponytail held the big sword and slashed at the monster rushing in front of her!!

"Boom, boom, boom!!"

The scorching heat was mixed with a violent explosion that nearly tossed the ground upside down, and the monster wailed and disappeared into the flying dust.

"Cut!"

Fang Zheng grabbed Heine and jumped out of the collapsed tunnel, glancing left and right, but unfortunately the monster seemed to have disappeared without a trace. This made her snort, and then threw Heine to the ground.

"What's wrong?"

"What the hell is going on?"

At this moment, they heard the noise, and Ermelo II, Grey, Luvia and others also ran over, looking at the scene in front of them, they couldn't help but be surprised.

"We just met the murderers of Ryori Kano and Mr. Orlock.........

Heine seemed to finally pick himself up, gasping for breath as he got up from the ground.

"I almost got killed, thanks to Miss Red Ponytail who saved me........."

"What the hell is going on?"

Hearing this, Luvia obviously couldn't help it, but just as Heine was about to speak, she suddenly ......... A flash of light appeared in the distance.

"Boom !!"

The next moment, under the gaze of everyone, I saw that the window on the second floor suddenly burst open.

And that's the room of the square and the flowers.
