Chapter 950: Soul Cage
When Frey found Franconia, he was flipping through a yellowed book.
The act of communicating with the giant soul was very unpleasant, and Franconian tried to contact the other party's shallow soul several times, but was refused, and even due to the strength of the other party's soul, the soul fire of the heart of the undead suffered some damage.
Because of this, while continuing to try while it is safe to do so, Franken also began to work in other ways to try to gather clues.
The end result is this book.
The book was kept in a sealed alchemy box, and although it inevitably suffered a little erosion of time, it was much luckier than the ancient books that had long since turned to ashes.
Naturally, the text of the book could not be Hugh Men language, Franken found that this kind of text was similar to the text of the vampire clan that he mastered, and with his experience before his death, he was barely able to stumble over it, and some incomprehensible places, with his excellent magical literacy, it was not much of a problem to even guess it.
The owner of the book is a magician named Norlancia, and the book records the results of his life's magical research and some conjectures.
This made Franken, who is also a research-oriented talent, addicted to it at once, and even forgot to continue his communication attempts with giant souls.
Until Frey and the others found him.
"Something terrible happened."
As soon as Frey met, she said straight to the point: "There is an unknown existence in this city, we have been ambushed, and now Miss Salanlia is in a very bad situation!" ”
"Can you elaborate on that?"
Franconian asked unhurriedly after putting the book back in the alchemy box and putting it in his spatial equipment.
Frey nodded. Franken told him a rough story of what had just happened.
Although not as keen as Shalan's vampire sense, the leaning angel in Frey's body was more or less aware of Naia's existence, and under normal circumstances, Frey might not care about this, but after Sharan insisted on keeping the palace by herself, and drove her and Theo out. It was only then that Frey realized something was wrong.
"Miss Sharan's bats are capable of maneuvering long distances, as she had previously demonstrated when she sent bats to explore the city on a large scale. If it weren't for the queen's sake, she wouldn't need to stay there herself......"
Fortunately, Frey is not the kind of heroine in the movie who willfully yells 'I'm going to stay with you too' when she finds out that something is wrong and finally makes a mess of things. Then immediately ask Franconia for help.
"Did you pass the word on to the Academy?"
Franconia asked.
"No, I tried, but there doesn't seem to be a way to communicate with the outside here." Frey shook her head.
If it weren't for the fact that it would take quite a long time to get from the academy, she would have returned to the academy to move the rescuers on her way home.
"Obviously, the college beacon has been plugged in, and it is used as a transit point. Theoretically, it is possible to contact the Academy...... In fact, we only got in touch not too long ago. ”
With that, Francony took out his professorial card and tried to contact the college.
It turned out that the Academy Beacon, which had been working before, seemed to have lost its effectiveness.
"Hey, something big is wrong, old man!"
At this time, Claude suddenly ran in out of breath.
"You're never going to believe what's going on out there - that giant soul has suddenly surrounded the whole city! It's like putting us all in prison! ”
Claude, who had actually been arrested in prison, had no fear at all, and although he said that something big had happened, the expression on his face was still dominated by the excitement of seeing this spectacle.
"Well, it seems that we don't need to find out where the interference source is."
Franconia put down his professorial card with a blank face.
The actions of the Giant Soul undoubtedly indicate its position.
It is the enemy.
Moreover, the mastermind behind the ambush of Shalan and them should also know that Frey and the others guessed their own existence. That's why it took so much effort to cut off the communication channels of the group.
However, the other party still underestimated the cheats of Adric Academy......
"Claude, you and Gila use the Homecoming Crystal to go back to the Academy. If we can't rescue Miss Saran along the way, then I'm afraid we'll have to trouble the dean. ”
Franconia twisted the screws on his head and said to Claude.
Then he looked up again, and looked at Tio with shriveled eyes: "And Miss Tio......"
"I'm going to help."
Theo held his wand and stood firm.
"All right, Claude. It's up to you this time. ”
"What about you, old man?"
Claude asked hurriedly.
Although he was always tossed by Franconian before he was cured of his ghostly disease, he naturally had some feelings after getting along for so long.
"Miss Frey, of course, to rescue Miss Sarah." Franconia said.
"Old man, are you kidding? Miss Saran is the strongest person in the entire academy except for the dean. Although Miss Frey is worshipped by the people of the Eastern Plains as the Holy Silver Sword Lady of the Pure White Church, her strength is only comparable to that of Miss Sharan, right? Claude said excitedly. As he spoke, he looked at Frey. The latter did not answer, which could be regarded as acquiescing, so he continued: "Even Miss Saran is not an opponent, and even the enemy who told Miss Frey and Miss Theo to flee quickly, what is the use of you going?" ”
"I can't give up Miss Sharan, it's not something that can be said to be 'useful' or 'useless'."
Franconia looked at Claude with some guilt.
It is precisely because he failed to fulfill his responsibilities as a father that Claude grew up alone in the plague city of Morrag, which led to Claude's mercenary way of thinking that only proceeds from his own interests.
"What's more, we have no intention of going head-to-head with the enemy in the first place...... From the beginning to the end, my goal was to rescue Miss Saraan. ”
As Sivi's servant, Franconia naturally knew that Sivi attached great importance to Shalan, and he would give up Shalan's behavior without even trying, at least he would never be able to do it.
"Moreover, in fact, the most critical people in this operation are you and Jira, and only if you bring reinforcements as much as possible, will the situation really stabilize...... Don't worry, I won't wait to die if I really can't, there are no other things, and there are a lot of crystals in my space on the way home. ”
After finally convincing Claude to let him leave with Jira, Francony sighed, and said in that emotionless tone without turning the screws to adjust his voice.
"So, let's do it now." (To be continued) R752
