Chapter 44: The Dark Servant
(Sorry, there was a bit of a mistake in the number of magic missiles in the front, so I changed it)
Magic Missile, the most popular offensive type of first-level magic, although the damage value is not high, but the penetration is amazing. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoIt can ignore immunity, so it is loved by mages and has become a necessary low-level magic for skipping levels and fighting monsters.
Five magic missiles flew in front of Buck in an instant, and he didn't even have time to think, because the incident happened so suddenly that he didn't even have time to toss the fate coin.
But another skill of the Gambler of Fate came into play.
Insight into weaknesses! The image received by the eye is quickly transmitted to the brain through afferent nerves, and the brain immediately analyzes and dissects the image in front of it.
In fact, this skill is mainly for gamblers to quickly remember the cards, so as to train the ability to quickly analyze and remember, and then you can analyze the flaws of the enemy's moves.
In a breath, Buck had a plan. He doesn't retreat, but advances, because the magic missile can bypass obstacles and track, so dodging is useless, and it is better to turn defense into attack.
He protected the vital point and let the missile hit his body, and the contact hit his body with five Qi Brushes.
A number popped up in front of my eyes......
"You take 1 Magic Missile Damage ......"
"You take 2 Magic Missile Damage ......"
"You take 1 Magic Missile Damage ......"
ā¦ā¦
The damage is not high, but it takes a total of 8 damage in five times.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, he had managed to break through to Isha's side.
However, Isha only made one move, and he decisively chose to give up. The girl quickly confided a few syllables, and there were 5 more doppelgangers at once between the shaking of her figure......
Mirror Shadow Technique, he had to at least destroy all the clones before he could attack the real body, and in such a long time, an eighth-level wizard could turn over and kill him several times.
"Don't do it yet...... Do you want to let the real murderer go unpunished. Unable to beat the other party, Buck chose to convince people.
"My mirror technique only lasts 5 minutes, you have 5 minutes to convince me ......" The girl was unmoved.
"Imagine if I was a murderer, then why would I stay here waiting for you to catch me?"
Buck wiped his sweat and continued, "Even if I'm stupid, then I don't have a dispute with him that is too important, and I don't have a motive to kill......"
"And I'm going to do it, so I can kill everyone present, so that no one will testify against me, wouldn't it be better?"
After listening to Barker's explanation, Isha lowered the staff in her hand.
"It's useless for you to convince me, you have to know that my aunt doesn't need any evidence to execute a civilian like you......"
Buck had a great headache, he knew that what the girl said was true, and in the eyes of the nobles, the lives of commoners were not even comparable to one of their favorite horses. What's more, the stakes are so high that it is difficult for him to take responsibility, even if it is just suspicion......
I really want to leave this place and continue to wander and flee. In this way, his whole plan was broken......
"You can help me find the murderer and prove my innocence." Isha only then said her purpose, in fact, she knew from the beginning that the murderer would not be Buck, she had investigated Buck beforehand, this was just a rootless adventurer, and it had nothing to do with any forces in the Federation.
It was only to put pressure on him to obey his arrangement. Growing up in the emperor's family, this kind of simple mental trick is no problem.
"I'm afraid I don't have room to refuse......" Buck smiled wryly.
ā¦ā¦
The turmoil caused by Nord's death in the Imperial Capital of the Federation is probably something that no one expected.
The nobles of the Holy Federation are obsessed with pleasure, whether it is martial arts or spells, they are inferior from generation to generation. They oppress civilians only by relying on their own identity. As soon as Nord died, those nobles realized that their identity could not bring security, and for a while, everyone was in danger.
They poured pressure on the sheriff and ordered him to catch the real culprit within a limited time. Poor Nat was almost white-headed overnight, and soon fell ill from stress.
The guards lost their leader, and took the opportunity to extort civilians in the name of finding the real culprit. The entire Emerald City was shrouded in a thick haze.
"I need all the information about the corpse......" Buck quickly got into the groove. He wasn't sure how much time Isha would be able to buy him, and when he heard that the adventurers who were just passing by that day had been arrested, he, the most suspicious person, was given the opportunity to participate in the investigation of the case under Isa's protection.
Porusing the report on the autopsy, he found something odd.
All the blood drained?
Is it a vampire?
No, vampires are a race that has a high demand for blood food, and they are more inclined to suck the blood of virgins. Moreover, there have been no other blood-sucking incidents here.
It is certain that the murderers will not do useless work, and this blood will have an effect on them, so they will go to great lengths to extract it......
Buck didn't think it would help much, "I wanted to go to the murder site and see the scene myself. ā
Isha on the side thought for a moment and agreed to the request, "Yes...... I'm going with you, it's already locked down. ā
The murder site was filled with abandoned wagons, creating only a narrow passage through which Nord's body was found.
Buck asked, "Did you use prophecy to predict the killer's tracks, or send out hounds?" ā
The guard on the side saluted respectfully, "I heard from the priest, it seems that the prophecy spell is blocked; Also, the hound didn't react at all......"
The prophecy spell is also invalid......
Buck thought of an organization. An organization that was once all the rage in the game......
In previous lives, the casual killing of commoners or nobles would be wanted, and the Holy See would send knights, and the palace would send guards to hunt them down.
However, there is such an organization whose doctrine is to reveal secrets only to those who are faithful to you, and everything is done in secret.
Therefore, as long as you join the organization, no prophecy spell can take effect. This means that the killers can go unpunished. At this point, all the players in the evil camp are crazy, and if you join the organization, you can kill NPCs without any damage, and you can also receive organizational rewards. For players, the allure is simply unstoppable.
It wasn't until later that the arrival of the Sage of the Moonlight Goddess Suren made the murderer unconcealed, and the organization was made public.
This group is made up of a group of people called the Dark Servants, who are followers of the dark goddess Shar. And their purpose is simple, to complete the dark act under the command of the priest of Share......
