Chapter 198: The Plan Begins
Kazas? Halowyn was one of the captains of the city guard in Hohenheim.
As the Grand Magician Howard? Green's personal student, he is the envy of the entire wizarding world. And he did not live up to this status, and entered the realm of high-level magicians at the age of his establishment, becoming one of the candidates who are currently most likely to become a great magician before the age of fifty.
And now, when the legendary 'mage' has become a noun in the legendary story like his name, the great mage is the top of the entire mage class!
The Mage Guild also had great expectations for this supernova-like existence, so much so that for the first time, the position of Captain of the Horhenheim City Guard, with great authority, was given to him as a sign of trust, not yet forty years old.
It's just that now the man who overshadowed the magical geniuses of the entire Eastern Plains has no calmness on his face.
His cheeks, which had been a little sickly pale because he had been in the Mage Tower all year round, were now flushed with anger, and the expression that was sick to everyone except for his teacher or other great magicians was now full of anger.
"You bunch of rice buckets!"
His Excellency the Commander raised his arm, which had become extremely slender due to malnutrition, and smashed the magic book in his hand on the face of the strong man in front of him, but the light and fluttering force probably couldn't even kill a cockroach.
The strong man let the powerful magic book crash into his rock-like face, and then instead of being angry, he picked it up with a look of sincere fear, and respectfully handed it back to the angry Kazas.
"Captain Halowin......"
"It's a mage!" Kazath huffed and snatched back the spellbook. Xiang Jianqiang corrected: "Before I was a soldier, I was a magician first, understand! ”
"Yes, Master Hallowin." The strong man immediately pandered to him with a slick style that was extremely inconsistent with his tough guy appearance.
Kazas looked down on the military, in fact, he looked down on almost any profession, including nobles, except for magicians - this is also for the reason that many countries have recruited this commoner-born magician, and some countries have even played the title of duke that can directly give him as long as he is the reason, and there are fiefs and everything. The tax is lower than in other realms, but so far he has not had any knighthood in any country!
He would not allow anyone to speak ill of a magician or be hostile to a demonic swordsman. No matter what the occasion, he considers himself a magician and is proud of it. He was like a fanatic who could give everything to his beliefs. It's just that the belief has changed from those ethereal gods to the inherent concept of 'magician'.
After learning this, the strong man naturally wouldn't go against this high-level magician - not to mention that the strong man himself was still a demon swordsman who was inexplicably hostile to Kazas......
"There were explosions at the same time at twelve ruins in the city, and although there have been no reports of casualties so far, the impact of the explosion on the surrounding area alone has already caused the prestige of the association to plummet! Not to mention the damage caused by the destruction of those ruins to the entire Skynet Barrier in Hohenheim! Kazas slapped the table angrily, and then retracted his aching hand from the reaction to the bottom of the table: "And at this time you tell me that there is not even a clue to the prisoner, and you can't even be sure if his means of destroying the ruins are magical?" ”
"10. I'm very sorry!" The strong man's head was covered in cold sweat, and he knew very well how terrifying it was for the extremely sickly looking mage in front of him to really launch a surge.
However, even with all the manpower at the disposal of the city guards, so far they have not been able to find the culprit of the bombing, so he can only let the sweat run through the corners of his eyes. Lowering his chin, he made a promise to Kazas: "We will do our best to find the prisoner in the shortest possible time!" ”
"What I want is not a guarantee, it's a result, Jun Cao!" Kazas's anger was not at all calm. Instead, it gives people a depressing and dangerous feeling like a volcano that can erupt at any moment: "I don't want to hear anything until you find the answer!" Now, get out of here! ”
So the strong man ran out of the mage tower of Kazath with a rolling belt.
After the strong man left, Kazas took two deep breaths, and the angry expression on his face immediately disappeared.
As a powerful magician. How to control their emotions is a compulsory course, as many times emotions affect their spell casting.
It's the same with Kazas, he gets angry, but he doesn't let it blind him.
"The so-called crime must have a corresponding motive." He began to think quietly, his slender index finger unconsciously tapping the hard cover of the magic book with a very regular aggressive sound: "For my own benefit, for some feeling, for someone or thing...... Even if he is a psychopathic murderer, he is motivated by a distorted sense of self-satisfaction. ”
A smart mage is not necessarily powerful, but a strong mage is invariably smart...... Although occasionally smart enough to go in something not so good.
So even if it was just a little bit of information, Kazas began to try to analyze it.
"So...... What was the motive for this incident? What is the use of destroying ruins? ”
First of all, although the ruins are the nodes of the Skynet Enchantment, if some of them are destroyed, it will definitely have some impact on the Skynet Enchantment, but in fact, the center of the Skynet Enchantment is still the headquarters of the Qiyao Mage Tower, and even if all the ruin nodes in the city are blown up, it will still only affect the Skynet Enchantment slightly, so the motive of hindering the operation of the Skynet Enchantment can be ruled out.
Then there are the terror attacks by heretical mages or humanoids, but considering that the twelve explosions were all in the ruins of no man's land, this is much less likely - it is more in line with the horror of bombing the dwellings than the ruins.
In the end, it is to attract the attention of the city guards by detonating the ruins to divert the tiger from the mountain......
"Huh?" Kazas's fingers stopped on the cover of the page, and his faint eyebrows, which were almost invisible, furrowed: "Attention? ”
If the other party really wants to draw the attention of the city guards to those explosion points, then what is his own purpose? Is it stealing or spying on something?
"It's not good to have too many things to covet......" Kazas closed his eyes again, rubbing his temples with some headaches.
As the headquarters of the Seven Dawn Mages Guild, Hohenheim has a lot of things that can be coveted by other countries and even other races. If it was a real fight, I am afraid that tying up those young people together would not be enough for the Mage Association to pinch it, but a small action like this in the dark like this now made them stare dryly at the place where the mess happened.
"In any case, being fully prepared for protection, so that they have no idea where to start, should be able to prevent the other party from succeeding to the greatest extent."
Just as Kazath was about to summon his own demon and tell it to inform the various units to prepare tight defensive measures, there was another loud explosion outside...... (To be continued)
