Chapter Twenty-Four: The Mystic Magician

"Great, you're all right."

This was the first thing Raven said.

She stepped forward and held Robin tightly in her arms.

Robin's eyes dilated slightly, and he felt the softness that came from *****.

"What happened?" Robin pushes Raven out a bit.

Raven's face was a little anxious.

Beads of sweat oozed from his face.

"It's not a very pleasant thing." Raven frowned, "I'm afraid there's a terrible mage in Haoyue City. She changed the illusion I had created. ”

Gail and Robin were stunned at the same time, exchanging glances with each other.

What should I say, what Raven said was completely in Matilda's words.

This left Robin at a loss to determine which side was telling the truth.

Or maybe it's all lies.

"How is this possible?" Robin asked tentatively, "Lord Raven, aren't you the strongest magus in the kingdom?" ”

"Aha......" Raven chuckled, not knowing whether to be happy or embarrassed.

"That's all nonsense. How can I compare to Grow Flora. ”

She coughed twice and said, "Even if that's the case, it only means that it's in Itnell." “

"You mean, there are mages from other countries in Haoyue City, and they are of a very high level?" Robin stared into the other's eyes suspiciously.

To know if a person is telling a lie or not, look into her eyes.

The eyes are the windows to the soul.

At the same time, it is also the outward manifestation that most easily reflects people's inner activities.

A liar uses some areas of the brain to form a short thought process, even if it is not obvious, it will show up in the eyes.

Such as hesitation, such as flickering.

"Yes, very strange magic." Raven frowned, "There are really very few powers in the world that can change illusions. Maybe Vivian can do it...... However, when she enters Bright Moon City, she will definitely trigger the defensive circle. The Magus of the other Three Kingdoms, I have never seen such a special ability so close to me, but a completely different magical power. ”

Raven took a few steps back and forth on the ground, feeling more and more irritated.

"It felt like pure nothingness. Rather than my [Structural Power], hers is more like the illusion itself. ”

"What does that mean?" Robin didn't quite understand her words.

However, this made him even more worried.

Because from Raven's performance just now, Robin couldn't tell that she was lying.

If it's really an act, Raven's acting skills are too good.

Able to hold a decades-old alcoholic, while at the same time being able to become sober at a critical moment.

"I'll find out until we meet later." As soon as Raven finished speaking, he shook his head again, "No, it's better not to meet, you are not her opponent." ”

She stopped, nodded solemnly, and then pulled a silver flask from her bosom and fed it to her lips.

Ah......h

Robin rolled his eyes upwards twice.

When this kind of thing happens, she can still drink and she is really drunk.

"And what about the mage?" Robin asked, "Didn't you meet her, or did you find her?" ”

In other words, what Robin really wanted to ask was-

A mage who has no way to prove its existence, how can I trust you, Raven?

"She ran away."

"Ran away, didn't you even catch Raven-sama?" Gail asked in surprise.

"What are you talking about...... Raven nodded a little embarrassedly, "Didn't I say it all just now, the other party's strength is no worse than mine." It was also with that strange aura of void magic that I could barely catch her traces.

She seems to have a strange power that allows her to disappear from this world.

So when I felt the aura getting stronger and stronger, and was about to grab her, the shadow was gone. “

"Shadows?" A bright light flashed in Robin's brain, "Could it be shadow magic like Mandy?" ”

"No, it's not like that." Raven shook his head.

"You don't have to worry about it." She brought the flask to her lips and took a sip, "Ah......hhhh

Raven slammed his lips and let out a pleasant scream.

"Anyway, I'll take care of it. She's not within your means, so don't meddle with it. Raven tightened the lid and put it back in his pocket.

"Okay, then you can go back tonight and get some rest, and tomorrow the magic class continues."

Raven finished speaking, and walked a little shaky towards the lower town.

It wasn't until she was far away that Gail came to his senses.

"What do you think, Lord Robin?" She looked at Robin nervously, "Is what Lord Revane just said true?" ”

Looks like it's true.

But it's not like it's real.

If the truth is as Raven says, then it is the third scenario that Robin guessed earlier.

Now it seems that it was because Raven answered what Mattida had anticipated that all three scenarios were possible.

"I don't know, Gail." Robin replied honestly, "I don't know now." ”

"That means you'll know, won't you?" Gail understood him and laughed reassuringly.

"I believe you, Lord Robin. Either way, I'll choose to be on your side. ”

"Thank you, Gail."

For some reason, when Robin said this, he suddenly noticed that Gail's cheeks were a little redder than usual.

That feeling......

But he immediately dismissed the strange thought.

How is it possible, there is no gender at all in this world.

There is no love between a man and a woman.

……

When Robin returned to the temple, he didn't immediately go to Calista, but waited for Kaye first.

He needed Kaye's help confirming something.

And this guy was sent by him a few days ago to investigate the others, and has not returned yet.

By dawn the next day, Kaye brought back the news just in time.

What Robin asked her to do was to investigate the traces of the vampire life in the previous Santa Berta Territory.

If vampires were to live in the kingdom of Itnell, they would inevitably have to suck blood, even if not human blood, animal blood was essential.

It's just that the news that Kaye brought back made Robin a little surprised-

Not only the Holy Beta Realm, but also the Twilight Realm and the Sunset Realm, as well as other Grand Dukes' territories, including the Frozen Realm, have traces of vampire activity.

Many wild beasts and domestic animals died very strangely, their skin and flesh shriveled up, and the blood in their bodies dried up.

In some places, there have also been incidents of missing persons.

For unknown reasons, these cases of disappearance were finally suppressed.

Or it was shelved because they didn't know where to start.

What surprised Robin even more was -

In the statistics that Kaye gave him, similar things date back more than a decade.

Maybe even longer.

Robin felt a little cold in his body, and his scalp tingled.

If this is true, then didn't Caroline have been hiding in Itney for more than a decade?

Moreover, the content involved in this is really heart-wrenching, and it is not just a problem of the Grand Duke of Olga.

If you don't know it, it will involve other Grand Dukes.

Or even cause chaos throughout the kingdom.

"Let's check the vampire matter here first, if it really has something to do with the grand dukes of the kingdom, I won't find anything if I look into it again." A flame ignited in Robin's hand, burning all the information Kaye had given him.

He shook his hand and threw the remaining ashes into the brazier.

"I need you to help me track someone." Robin said, looking at Kaye.
