Chapter 273: The Judgment of Speculation

Finally, it's time for Kusiux.

Felik didn't expect Kusiukes to be like this.

"Didn't you say Sancheng? Why are there so many? ”

When he walked through the city gates, Felik felt that the ratio was a little wrong, and as far as the eye could see, there were many people in the streets who were sick, and they didn't look like mages at all, just ordinary civilians.

Maisie walked up to Felik and patted him on the shoulder: "Let's go, I'll take you to see where the patient was first found, and what you might find there." ”

"Hmm."

……

The dark but not damp basement could feel an oppressive aura as soon as they entered, and Belina sensed the chaotic flow of magic in the air the moment she stepped on the stone steps, and down the stone steps, they came to this place, a place that resembled a secret room.

An iron table with messy paper on it, and maps nailed to the surrounding walls, both imperial and non-imperial, all kinds of illegible, yellowed maps with red lines and crosses, like strategic maps.

"Miss Maisie, is this a secret room?"

"As you can see, it's a secret room."

"Who is the owner of this secret room?"

"I don't know."

"Belina, did you find anything?"

Belina stepped over to the desk, reached out and gently grasped the handle of the drawer, then slowly pulled it open.

Only one crack was opened, and a thick and violent magic gushed out of this gap, and even Felik noticed it, and he quickly stepped forward to tear Belina open, turned around and kicked it on the drawer, and kicked it back again.

"What's that?" Felik asked.

Belina shook her head: "I don't know, but it is likely to be related to this plague, in a natural environment, such a violent magic should not appear in such a place." ”

Maisie said, "Wait a minute, you two, I'll call someone to open this drawer, and you can go outside and wait for a while." ”

After Maisie had taken care of everything, when the two of them went in again, they saw a rag, which was still impregnated with dangerous magic, and if they were driven to cast this magic power, it was inevitable that they would be consumed by the spell.

This rag feels like it is wrapped in something dangerous, and it may be the source of the infection of this crisis, or the key to solving the crisis, but it may also be just a dangerous magic tool.

In order to confirm this, it is necessary to investigate the information on the table.

They collected all the materials with words and moved them back to Maisie's manor.

Belina is very knowledgeable and can develop antidotes, but he has no special skills, and the only purpose of staying here is to investigate the origin of the disease, although for a few days, no clues about the plague have been found in the chaotic text, but he has found an interesting information that has nothing to do with the plague.

The owner of the secret room seems to have been looking for something called the "Truth Thing".

The history and legends of the Truth Thing are written on a thick pile of materials, and the map is the speculation of the owner of the secret room about the whereabouts of the Truth Thing.

"I didn't expect anyone to be so serious about looking for the legendary thing, but I don't think I found it, and if I did, there would probably be one more Doyle." Felik sighed and put down the information in his hand.

Although it doesn't have much to do with the plague, the secret room is obviously related to the outbreak of the plague, and even Maisie says that it is where the plague first broke out, so there are definitely some clues.

However, the clues ...... Where is it?

Felik was puzzled and looked at the maps, clueless.

Just as he was about to pause for a break, Maisie pushed the door open and walked in.

Every time he saw Maisie wrapped himself tightly, Felik always had an urge to take off the other party's cloak, but the seven gods of the king are all powerful characters, and some quirks are not difficult to understand, maybe Maisie just doesn't like to expose her skin.

As soon as she entered, Maisie threw a stack of letters on the table.

"Felik, I've found something that I think should help your investigation."

"I'll see."

This is!

[In the battle in the royal city, my heart is getting weaker and weaker, if I can't find a replacement, I'm afraid my life will end here, but fortunately, now I have found the truth, which gives me a glimmer of hope, the legendary artifact, should be able to continue my life.

But it will take some rituals to open it, and the disaster caused by forcibly opening it is obvious, and this place cannot be left behind, and I will go to that place to wait for you, and I hope you will come as soon as you see this letter. 】

It's Reims.

Felik is sure.

In the battle of the King's Change, he destroyed the opponent's heart, and Lance used a magic trick to renew his life.

There can be no such coincidence in the world, the one who gets the truth must be Lance, and if it is that person, I am afraid that it will cause a big mess somewhere.

Reading between the lines, the truth has been revealed, and the source of this plague is precisely the so-called truth.

"No, there are too few clues to be traced."

"Yes, there are too few clues, if you can know what kind of person the prisoner is, if you can understand the psychology of the prisoner, then you can try to track it down." Maisie frowned, thoughtful.

"Maisie, you're such a genius!"

Her unintentional words aroused Felik's mind.

If anyone knows Lance, it should be Walter, although Walter has been deceived by Lance for so long, but he has sent Lance as a cadre for so long, and he should have a certain understanding of Lance's style of acting.

But how do you get in touch? Walter didn't even tell them where he was.

And...... In some places, Felik is also confused!

He secretly glanced at Maisie, sorted out the information at hand, sighed, and said: "It's a pity that we don't know him, the clue is interrupted here, and now we must focus all our energy on developing an antidote, although the plague is terrible, it does not mean that it cannot be cured." ”

Maisie's face changed slightly, and she hurriedly spoke: "But this person is obviously the culprit of the plague, if we don't catch him, then he may cause another plague outbreak, and there will be more victims at that time!" ”

Felik spread his hands and replied, "But now we have no clue at all!" ”

"No, it's not completely clueless, it says about Wang Cheng's change, obviously he was involved in that coup d'Γ©tat at the time, and must have been involved in the battle, if you carefully investigate the people who have experienced the battle, you may be able to get a clue from it."

Felik squinted at Maisie, a meaningful smile on his lips.

"Felik, what are you laughing at? Am I ridiculous? ”

"No, I just think Maisie you are so smart that you even thought of this, now that I think about it, I really know someone who experienced that coup d'Γ©tat, and her identity is quite special, I think you should also know that I can fight for my life that time."

When Maisie heard this, her face changed significantly.

Felik is a well-known prisoner with a sky-high bounty, and the reason why he was rewarded is that anyone who knows the inside story understands the reason, when this man forcibly rescued the head of the revolutionary army who was about to be executed from the hands of the beast David. Evelyn.

But Maisie had previously found out that Walter's bounty list had been revoked, and even Felik, who was recognized by the emperor, had not revoked the bounty list, and Walter's bounty had been revoked, which meant that she had been sanctioned by the Holy See.

But now listening to Felik's words, it seems that Walter is not dead.

"That'...... It's just wonderful. Maisie replied absent-mindedly.

Felik had already confirmed his guess in his mind.

"Well, I'll go back to Caswan first."

"Why go back, wouldn't it be better to use the magic crow to send a message?"

"In addition to investigating the whereabouts of that mysterious man, there are still some things to confirm."

"What's the matter?"

"You don't need to know that."

Maisie frowned.

The next day, Felik left Kusiuks alone in his carriage.

After leaving Kusiux far away, and when he could not see it, Felik stopped the carriage, jumped down, slapped his hand on the horse's buttocks, and drove it away, while he himself walked towards Kusiux.

Returning to Cass Bay was just an excuse, and his real purpose was to investigate Maisie's real purpose.

Felik was convinced that his judgment would never be wrong, and that Maisie was hiding something from everyone......

Felik ...... What a dangerous fellow, it's been five days, and if you count the time, he's already in Cass Bay. ”

Sitting on the balcony of her villa, she overlooked her own territory, which was originally okay, although she was not good at governance, but because of the help of that person, she was also well managed, and the lives of the people were barely rich.

But look at it now, it's become like this.

Those who can walk have already left, and those who can't are locked up in the city where they are dying.

The army sent by the Emperor has taken over all the exits, and not a single sick person can leave the city, and those who still live here are either sick or unwanted to leave because of the illness of important people.

"It's all my fault." Maisie sat in her chair, staring at it all with a blank face, her eyes gradually turning sad.

Just as she sighed to herself, a voice suddenly appeared behind her.

"Mistress Maisie, your magic seems to flow, it seems...... It's kind of weird. ”

Brush!

Kicking the stool away, Maisie turned around like a whirlwind, and touched the saber at her waist with her right hand.

Seeing that it was Belina, Maisie straightened up awkwardly and smiled: "It turned out to be Belina, sorry, sorry." ”

"I didn't ...... Never mind. ”

"You just ...... Did you hear anything? ”

"Oh, it's all your fault when I hear you say it's all your fault, I don't think you have to blame yourself."

Great, she didn't seem to hear the previous words, Maisie thought to herself, so she asked instead, "By the way, you just said that my magic flow is a little strange, don't you...... Can you see the flow of magic in my body? ”

"I can just feel it." Belina didn't want to reveal her law-breaking eyes.

Just now she secretly observed when she stood behind the other party, this is a diagnostic habit she has recently developed, when she saw the magic in Maisie's body, she had a very strange feeling, but the magic did not flow backwards, indicating that Maisie was not sick.

"The flow of my magic has always been like this, but I can still cast spells, you see."

At the same time, Maisie raised her fingers and recited the spell lightly, and a beam of fire rose in her fingertips, turning into the appearance of a sharp sword, which was the third-level magic flame sword of the fire system, and if she could cast a spell, it would mean that Maisie was definitely not a patient.

Because the moment a sick person casts a spell, the magic power of the whole body will go berserk and spontaneously combust.

"And what is the matter with Belina coming to me?"

Belina's expression was serious and extremely solemn.

"Lord Maisie, there is a situation that has to be faced, and now the patient's death cycle has become shorter again!"

After a long silence, Maisie asked rhetorically, "How short?" ”

"Two days, if it is a high-level mage, it will only take two days from illness to final death, and if it is a mage apprentice, then it is estimated that he will die within a week."

"I see, Belina, you go get busy, I have some things to take care of."

"Okay."

Seeing Belina leave, Maisie's eyes froze.

"I'm running out of time, Felik...... You've got to hurry. ”

"I didn't expect that woman to be able to feel the flow of magic in the human body, what a terrible talent, almost exposed. There was really no one around that man, so it was no wonder that he could snatch someone from David. ”

Muttering to herself, she walked into the room, and she headed for her study.

Turning the doorknob and entering the room, she stopped, looking at the person sitting in the chair in front of her, Maisie's pupils suddenly dilated, and her steps were sluggish.

How could he be here!!

"Mistress Maisie, I haven't seen you for five days, don't come unharmed."

Felik sat in the soft chair with a smile on his face, his feet resting on the desk with his hands on his desk, reading with a book in his hands, his purple eyes shining with a strange light, like an inquisitor ready to interrogate a prisoner.

What I said just now, this kid didn't hear it, Maisie was a little worried.

Soon, though, she won't have to worry about it.

"My team members are really good, of course, as the leader...... It's not an idle person! Felik said slowly.

"Hehe, I'm not in a good mood, and I can't help but complain when no one is around, which makes you laugh."

"That's right, you're Lance's partner, so you naturally have to be wary of a dangerous person like me, I think it's quite normal!" The corners of Felik's mouth rose slightly, he closed the book with a snap, and slowly stood up from his chair.

With a flick of his hand and the book in Maisie's footsteps, Felik got straight to the point and said, "Tell me, what is your purpose?" ”

With her head down, the shadow of her cloak covering her face, making it impossible to see her expression, she slowly leaned over, picked up the book on the ground, patted it, and raised her head with a smile.

"What are you talking about? Reims? Seems to have heard it, oh I remember...... Isn't this man the wanted man of the Holy See? How could I be his partner, and...... What does he have to do with this plague? ”
