Tiandao: "In this mission, the experience everyone has gained is 110 (Chris), 120 (Max), 170 (Hinter), congratulations to Hinter, after Chris, he became the fourth third-level hunter. At present, everyone's experience points are, 25 (the default order, Hitbels, Chris, Max, Hinter Cook, and this order has been used since then), I hope you continue to work hard, and it takes 1000 experience points to be promoted to level 4 hunters, and now you still lack a lot of experience, so keep working hard. ”
Four: "Yes!!" ”
July 3rd Dark Dungeon Location: Unknown
A thousand faces. Yugsaron: "Well, my resurrection plan is too slow!" ”
"Isn't it enough for 4 high-ranking people of the Demon Soul Empire plus so many souls?"
A thousand faces. Yogsaron: "My resurrection requires the souls of a hundred humans as the basis for breaking through the seal!" Although 4 high-level souls are good, these four high-level souls, one is at most 3 points of soul energy, plus the 9 who died before, I only have 21 points of soul energy now, and it has been 2 months, with your progress, I want to be resurrected, it seems that I can only wait for next year. ”
"Those civilians are ordinary souls, and the upper echelons of the Demon Soul Empire are considered high-level? So... The intermediate-level ones are those who know spells and are in the middle of their abilities, right? ”
A thousand faces. Yugsaron: "What do you want?" ”
"There are too many 'magic soldiers' in this world, I will find a way to make these magic-capable people die, so that your resurrection speed should be faster, right?"
A thousand faces. Yugsaron: "That's natural, their souls can replenish up to 2 soul energy, but in this way, I'm afraid your plans will be revealed!" ”
"They don't have time to take care of it, the murder in the imperial capital, the plundering of Vetani, they can't keep it busy. But you also reminded me that since their soul energy is higher than the other, so... Does it mean that the soul power of those gods is more beautiful? ”
A thousand faces. Yogsaron: "If you want me to be resurrected, these people must be the biggest obstacle. But they're not so easy to deal with! ”
"My colleagues died at their hands, and I naturally knew that. In order to resurrect you as soon as possible, I will plan well, and no one will ruin the resurrection plan! ”
July 7 at 10:40 a.m. light rain in Straker City
In a private house, the fire was constantly burning, and even a light rain could not extinguish the fierce flames, and the fire engulfed everything, and even the raindrops were like fuel for the flames.
Two hours later, the fire brigade arrived and finally extinguished the fire, but under the wreckage, there were not only burned houses and homes, but also a corpse that had been charred by the fire
Later, according to the police investigation report, it was written that 'a fire broke out due to a malfunction of electrical appliances while cooking', and although the matter was settled at that time, an urgent letter was immediately sent to the Shuguang Building
After reading the report, Sadou Okun immediately understood the seriousness of the situation, and immediately informed the 'Shield' base, and informed the person in charge of the letter of the contents of the letter, 'Tiandao', and the 'Heavenly Dao' immediately summoned the Silver Wolf team to D3
Tiandao: "Although this case has been handled by the local police, but... Look here. ”
Max: "Badly scorched, but doesn't smell burnt?" What's going on? ”
Tiandao: "Also, this part. ”
Chris: "Although the wiring of the household appliances was burned, according to the power company's inspection, none of them were faulty at that time. ”
Hinter Cook: "This also means that at the time of the crime, there was no so-called 'electrical malfunction due to electrical problems', but someone could have burned down the house in order to cover up the clues, in order to cover up all the evidence!" ”
Hitbels: "Rain, fire, burnt, ...... circuits"
Tiandao: "XT, have you thought of anything?" ”
Hitbels: "Do you have any information about the victims?" ”
Tiandao: "You have to go to this to find out." I think you've got a rough idea, XT. ”
Hitbels: "That's right, it's obvious, a revenge case committed by a fire mage!" ”
Based on the existing clues, Hitbels deduced who the murderer was, from the severe scorch marks but no smell, to the rainy day when the flames did not subside, Hitbels understood that the murderer was a fire mage
Flame mages, their attacks are classified as 'magic attacks', all fire attacks are mana aggregation, so they will only leave scorch marks but will not have smoke, burnt smell, etc., and because it is a spell attack, this flame can be controlled, and the murderer can fake this place as an electrical fire through his own flames and burning flames
And the reason why the flame on the roof cannot be extinguished by rain is natural, the roof is applied to the 'mana flame', unless it is extinguished with the 'mana flow', it will continue to burn until the roof is destroyed, or the mana power is insufficient
In order not to arouse suspicion, the fire in the house was caused by the murderer deliberately igniting the house, and the victim was wrapped in the 'mana flame', but the murderer adjusted the power of the flame in order for people to find out, and the purpose of the 'mana flame' was only to isolate the fire when the fire was opened
The murderer was a deliberate attempt to fake the false impression of the victim's accidental death, but the police did not do what he wanted, first issued a fake notice to announce the closure of the case, and then reported to the Shuguang Building, after all, there are too many suspicious points, in order not to cause panic, the police can only choose to lie first, let the Shuguang Building decide the case
Sheriff: "You're finally here, haven't you been discovered?" ”
Hinter Cook: "We're secretly operating this time, that's why we're here so late, let's go in first." ”
At 9 o'clock in the evening, the Silver Wolf Squad arrived at the Straker City Police Station, because it was night, so the residents did not notice Hinter and the others, the sheriff had been pacing in his office, when a police officer at the door came to tell the sheriff that there were several people at the door of the police station, the sheriff came to the door as fast as possible, because he knew that his request to the Dawning Mansion had passed, and it must be someone from the Dawning Council, or someone affiliated with the Dawning Council
Sintle Cook: "Sheriff, the boss already knows what you're worried about, so they asked us to investigate. ”
Sheriff: "Thank goodness I noticed it when I was at the scene, but I was afraid of causing panic, after all, the house had become open and almost nothing was burning, and there were quite a few people with umbrellas and nearby residents outside the cordon. ”
Max: "Sheriff, how did you find out?" ”
Sheriff: "Unquenchable flames!" When the fire brigade came to the scene, these flames could not be extinguished by the rain until the fire brigade used high-pressure water cannons to extinguish the fire, but when we entered the scene, although there was a burning smell everywhere, when the forensic personnel carried the deceased on a stretcher, I inadvertently smelled it, and found that although the deceased had serious scorch marks, there was not much smell. ”
Hitbels: "Sheriff, can we check the deceased's information?" I need to confirm one thing. ”
Sheriff: "Of course. ”
The sheriff quickly pulled out a report, and Hitbels gave him a quick look and nodded, and it was exactly what he thought
Deceased: Ikanns, 42 years old, former Magic Kingdom Fire Magic Instructor, left the Magic Kingdom at the age of 35, along with Bronnie, Hixi, and Moraso, all of whom were 28 years old on average, and were Ikens' three apprentices, all of whom were fire mages. Dissatisfied with Cleon Susa, one of the members of the Council of Morost, they quit the Magic Kingdom, and the four of them came to Straker City to live their own lives, with the occasional three apprentices approaching Ikans to practice spells
Hitbels: "All three are flame mages? It's more complicated than I thought. ”
Sheriff: "Are you sure it's all three?" ”
Hitbels: "The mainland has ordered a ban on the construction of magic academies, because mages are very dangerous professions, unlike 'priests' and 'warriors', but these people have to go through special training to master 'skills', but mages are different, he is not like priests who can heal and save people, and mages are mostly offensive spells." ”
Max: "According to the peace treaty, the conditions for the construction of the magic academy are, first, that is, the top management must be present, that is, the personnel of the Demon Soul Empire or the Dawning Council, and the second is that the risk must be taken, once the apprentices in the academy commit a crime outside, the highest management department, that is, the Demon Soul Empire or the Dawning Council, has the right to close the magic academy, and arrest all apprentices and lecturers, and conduct a strict investigation of everyone. The third is that it must be registered, and according to us, the only magic academy that is willing to take the risk and has been registered is the Magic Kingdom, which is what it means ......"
Chris: "No one would have been able to make this fire so dramatic without the Academy's professional counseling. ”
Hitbels: "That's right, and the deceased is an old lecturer, not all mages can approach and defeat him, and only acquaintances can do crimes, and the most familiar person is that he has directed three students." ”
Sheriff: "Proficient in fire mages, familiar with the victims...... I understood, and I immediately asked people to investigate these three people! ”
Officer: "Oh no, Sheriff! ”
Sheriff: "What's wrong?" ”
Officer: "In the city center, there was another fire, and it was ......"
Sheriff: "And what, say it quickly! ”
Officer: "And a charred corpse was also found, the same way Ikans died!" ”
Everyone: "What?!" ”
