Chapter 499: Wizarding World: Death
Bard: "Don't just stand, we have to look for clues." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ā
Tang Tu: "Wait, go and call Rogette over first." ā
Leaving the bard to guard the scene, Tang Tu ran out to find Rogette, whispered a few words in his ear, and then the two went to the sorceress's house together.
Rogert's face was very heavy. There was a corpse on the ground, not Lily nor a sorceress. Rogette found an eye hole in one of the walls.
Bard: "A peephole, someone uses it to peep... Behind this wall is the women's branch, maybe the people over there have seen something? ā
Rogette led the bard and Tang Tu to the women's branch next door and found the girl across the wall.
Female Branch: "Welcome." You're in luck today, I've got a special service. But you'll have to pay for three people. ā
The bard knew the lady: "Dilaye, this is the demon hunter Rogette and his henchmen. We're just here to talk..."
Rogette: "Tell us who's used this room lately. ā
Dilaye: "Margot and me. Is there anything you guys are up to? ā
Rogert: "Lily and the Sorceress were in the next room... Do you know what happened to them? ā
Di Laye looked a little flustered: "I... We didn't peep, I didn't know anything. ā
Rogette tried to reassure her: "Don't be afraid, just tell us what you see." I know you've seen through the peephole. ā
Dillaya: "Margot is a little nervous because of the holiday, and she wants her girls to provide special services starting today. She came to my room and we did the AI. JUST IN FRONT OF ME, WE HEARD CONVERSATION. Margot began to peep and saw the sorceress and Sevik..."
Bard: "Are you sure?" ā
Di Laye: "Yes, I'm sure. Out of curiosity, we began to rush to see it, and finally Margot let me take a look. Lily says she wants to see who has spoken to the Ice Queen lately. She leaned closer to the mirror and whispered something. Then there was a flash of light, and a scary-looking man appeared in front of the mirror. ā
Rogert: "Describe what that man looks like." ā
Di Laye: "He looks like a pterodactyl, a hungry, ancient pterodactyl. ā
Bard: "I don't understand. ā
Tang Tu: "It doesn't seem to be Resso. ā
Dillaya continued: "Lily was stunned, and then the man said, 'Lily, why is your face so pale?' Do you see ghosts? He grinned wickedly, and..."
The scene suddenly switched, and Tang Tu found that the surrounding scenery entered the plot animation mode.
In the room, Lily and Sevik stood in front of a glowing mirror, an elven archer kneeling beside them. This elven archer was the corpse in the sorceress's house. And the sorceress Hill wasn't there.
A figure appeared in front of the mirror, the man Dillaya had described. The man was standing in the charm drawn on the floor of the sorceress's house. These spells are supposed to be used in conjunction with Lily's spellcasting.
Lily looked at the man and said, "Desmo, hello. I just want to know who Hill has been in contact with lately..."It turns out that this man's name is Desmo.
Desmo: "Spying on each other, huh?" It's so fresh, what's the matter with you? ā
Lily: "What's Ciel's intentions?" ā
Desmo: "Lily, are you crazy?" Just that I'm willing to talk to you should be gratified. How dare you talk to me like that..."
Lily: "I need to know what's going on. Desmo, help me. Count me in debt to you. ā
Dysmo: "You don't know anything useful to me, I don't need your favors." You're not my thing. ā
Lily: "Did you hear that Felipa left Retaia?" ā
Dysmo showed an interested expression: "I heard, do you know where she is?" ā
Lily: "I do. But you have to answer my question first. ā
Dysmo: "Okay. I'll just answer you a simple question in exchange for Feliba's message. ā
Lily: "What does Hill want?" What will be the reward for her miracle cure? ā
Desmo: "A seat in the Royal Council, plus ownership of three alchemy shops." The profit in one year alone is more than three hundred pounds. ā
Lily: "She's amazing..."
Desmo: "If it were me, I would let the dog bite her." And you said, where did Felipa go? ā
Lily: "Felippa is in Ferguen, a small town on the border between Cordwin and Yadian. ā
Desmo: "I know exactly where that place is. The remnants of the Yadian army were assembled there, led by a little girl who was said to be a dragon slayer. ā
Lily: "Who's that girl?" ā
Dysmo: "She commanded a group of peasants, poor aristocrats, and inhuman races. Even Prince Sternis, the son of Demavi, did not dare to despise her. But it was pointless, Hengsette would still run over the rats and chase them with a whip. What is Felipa doing over there? ā
Lily: "Desmo, I won't get anything in return even if I tell you, you know too little. Good bye. ā
The episodic animation ends. The scene returns to the women's branch.
Di Laye: "That's it. I didn't hear or see anything anymore. ā
Rogette: "What happened to Lily and Sevik?" ā
Dillaya: "I don't know. Margot pushed myself away from voyeurism. But I heard collisions, yelling, and fighting. Margot covered the peephole with a painting. She turned pale and told me to keep it a secret. We sat for a while and didn't leave until the next door was quiet. Margot went back to her room, and I never saw her again. Later, though, I saw Severik staggering down the alley that led to the forest. ā
Rogette: "Bard, you're waiting here. 'The Chef Not the Butcher' and I went to Sevik. ā
Bard: "What about Margot?" ā
Rogette: "By the way, we've got to find her." ā
Bard: "I'll go find her." ā
The bard went to Margot. Tang Tu followed Rogette to the forest to find Sevik. On the way, they met a few squirrel squirrels in the forest and had a fight.
On the path in the forest, Tang Tu opened the Eagle Eye and found blood stains on the ground, which should have been left by Sevik. Following the trail of blood, they found Sevik lying on the ground.
Savik was badly wounded: "Goodbye, white wolf... Soon I will no longer feel pain ... I've always wanted to die among the trees..."
Rogert: "Sevik, what's going on in that room?" What about Lily? ā
Sevik: "Lily asked me for help. I killed the humans guarding the door, and then we broke down the door. I killed another man..."
Rogert: "I know that, but what happened later?" ā
Severik: "A demon hunter rushed in and attacked us. I tried to protect Lily, but he was too fast for me to beat him... He struck Lily before she could cast a spell. This man knows how to deal with a sorceress. Then he asks Lily to activate the clairvoyant mirror, and he needs to go to Yadean... Near the dwarven town of Ferjian. Lily says it's crazy and she doesn't have exact coordinates... The man looked at her with strange eyes and threatened, 'You'd better do your best, you go first, I'll follow'. Then I passed out and when I woke up they were gone. I knew I was dying, and the forest was calling to me. ā
Rogette looked sad: "Why, Sevik, why are you involved?" ā
Sevik: "And what are you for?" Sometimes, we just have to... Did I tell you about my hallucinations? That's why I'm greedy for cups, and it helps me. I feel at ease in the fog of spirits... I can't see anything, I can't feel anything..."
Rogette: "Sevik, calm down. ā
Savik continued: "Now, I can see very clearly, you have to get your memories back... Only then will you understand who killed the king of humanity ... And why. ā
Rogert: "How do I get my memories back?" ā
Sevik: "In Yadean... There is a place stained with black magic, where the ghosts of the dead are engaged in a great battle. Save their souls and you'll be able to regain your memories. ā
After saying this, Savik became even weaker: "The forest... I feel calm..."
Rogette half-knelt in front of Sevik. Many forest animals gathered around, and they were saying goodbye to Severik.
Sevik closed his eyes calmly. He's a good elf. It's a shame to die like this.
Scene switching. Djordan and the bard approached.
Bard: "Rogette, Fernon has sent me to you, and we are preparing to go. He found something new. ā
Dwarf Dzoltan: "The Squirrels seem to be planning something big, too. ā
Tang Tu: "Rescue Orpheus?" ā
Rogert: "What's Fenon's plan?" ā
Bard: "He's been complaining about Roredo, and I think it must have something to do with the commander." Things should be very important. ā
Rogette: "Drottan, do you have any news of the Squirrel Party?" ā
Dwarf Zortan: "As the chef is not the butcher says, they want to save Orpheus and the other prisoners who have been captured, and they seem to want your help." ā
Tang Tu raised his eyebrows, is the heart of the Squirrel Party so big? Orpheus was arrested because of Rogette, and now they actually want Rogette to help them rescue Orpheus.
Rogert: "Drottan, you're part of the Squirrel Party?" ā
Dwarf Dzortan: "That's not the case. They were to escort the prisoners to Djokenbo. There are special prisons for the inhuman race. That's a monument to human hatred! In this matter, the Squirrel Party does not trust you and does not trust me. But you can change that. ā
Rogert: "I'll talk to them. ā
Tang Tu: "No. Boss, you keep swinging between human and non-human races, don't end up seeing you as mortal enemies on both sides. ā
Rogette: "Femnon or the Squirrels, maybe they can always help me." ā
Tang Tu followed Rogette and his party back to Floating Harbor and found Fernon.
Fenon: "How's it going?" ā
Rogette briefly talked about the Kingkiller and Lily: "The Kingkiller has taken Lily hostage and teleported to Ferjian in Yadian. ā
Fenon: "Damn, this guy is playing us like monkeys!" If he wants to play like this, I'll make him regret it. ā
Rogert: "I've heard you've got some new news. ā
Fenon: "Rolledo and Cordwin made an agreement. The merchant who lived in his house was an envoy of Hengset. With just a bag of gold, Lordedo promised to assist the army of Caldwin in an incident. ā
Rogert: "Uh-huh. ā
Fenon: "I'm going to catch that spy and force him to tell him the truth, and then I can sentence Commander Lloredo to death." ā
Rogette shook his head: "Fenon, we have to go to Yadian, and the kingkiller is our goal." ā
Femnon insisted: "I'm not going anywhere until I settle Lrecdo. The spy might know the Kingkiller. I'm not surprised if all of this is behind Cordwin's Hengsette. ā
Rogette compromised: "Alright, let's deal with this spy." ā
Fenon summoned his men and began to assign operational tasks.
Fenon: "Listen carefully, I won't repeat the following words. We have two targets, the first is the Cordwin spy Arnott... I want him to live. The other is Roledo, the commander of the trading post, a traitor to Temoa, and we can't let that live.
Arnott barely leaves the mansion, so we'll have to attack here. To get in, we'll have to use Tess's talent and Arnott's hobbies. Roldedo's mansion, with several rooms on the ground floor, Rogette had the opportunity to investigate first, usually with patrols. On the second floor is the guardhouse of L'Ledo. These guys think they're the strongest warriors in the Yalu area, but they're just useless drunkards in painted armor. The third floor is the lair's lair. This is where the valuables looted by Lotricho are stored. HE EATS AND DRINKS HERE, OR ELSE HE LOOKS AT THE STATUE OF THE FEMALE ELF. Only the following persons were allowed to enter: Arnott, Lrecdo's mother, his cousins, and... Female branch girl. ā
Tess crossed her arms: "I'm not sure if I have decent clothes..."
Fenon: "After completing his official duties at the trading post, Lorredo would always call two female branch girls. Tess will dress up as one of them. The mansion was a fortress, but Lorredo expanded it. Demon hunters enter through the extension, and Tess will open the windows for you. Once you get in, you're going to have to improvise. Rogette, you have the advantage of concealment, and Tess can take care of herself. ā
Rogette: "I'll take my little brother in. ā
Tang Tu: "Listen to the boss." ā
Fennon: "Zaning and Recard will cover you from the vantage point. If things don't go well, lead these jerks to the window. I would stay in the yard with the others, ready for extreme situations. I repeat, extreme cases. ā
Tang Tu wanted to ask what an extreme situation was, but he swallowed the words when he saw that the others looked at each other.
Fenon: "That's it, let's do it." ā
