Chapter 159: The Hand of Flame (2) (4/4)

late at night

Hot Spring City, Mage District, Ruins of Street Square.

At this time, more than a week had passed since the attack of the day, and the corpses on the ground had already been cleaned up, and the floor of the house destroyed by the fire explosion was covered with various wooden tools, and a large part of the area of gravel and scorched wood had been cleared.

But the huge pit next to the fountain in the center of the square, the fragments of flesh and blood between the cracks in the rubble, and the two still faintly visible marks of impact on the ground, still silently recount the cruelty of the day's battle.

Next to one of the impact marks, a dark figure in a wide cloak emerged from the shadows of the ruined house, crouched down, and carefully examined the rubble on the ground.

After looking at it for a while, the black shadow spoke: "The surface of these bluestones is black, there are signs of melting, and they are arranged in the shape of a cone radiation, this person uses directional fire magic up to level 4. ”

Behind him, a response came from the shadows: "Whatever magic he used, he was dead." The point is, there is no trace left by the eldest lady here......"

"Don't worry." The shadow replied, and then a thumb-thin wand appeared in his hand, and he held it high, and in a moment the lilac set at the tip of the wand emitted an almost invisible shimmer that radiated and enveloped the entire ruins.

After about twenty seconds, a thin silver glow appeared on the top of a house in the far corner of the square.

The black shadow immediately said, "It's the blood of the silver moon!" It was left by the eldest lady! ”

The Blood of the Silver Moon, also known as the Blood of the Holy Demon, is the unique emblem of the three Silver Moon families of King Pelinde, and its blood contains extremely special magical properties, which can be detected by specific detection magic.

As soon as he finished speaking, two figures appeared in the shadows behind him, and the two rushed to the corner of the square like arrows.

These three people are the masters of the family sent to the south by the Norrigan family, and their mission is to rescue the eldest lady of the family, Olina.

The two people who rushed out, one of them was equipped with these two long swords, and his speed was a little slower, he was supposed to be a warrior, while the other was ridiculously fast, and landed silently, like a puff of smoke, and when the magician's voice completely fell, he was also next to the bloodstain.

He was an Assassin and was best at tracking him, known as the Hound Dog.

He squatted down and observed the shape of the bloodstain: "Parson, Norissa, this is the blood stain of the eldest lady, the blood stain is oval, and the blood spots are splashed everywhere, which shows that the eldest lady was very fast at that time, according to the shape, she should have gone to the west." ”

The man said as he followed the trail of blood, and soon reached the alley where Olina had landed that day, and the magician and warrior behind him followed.

In the alleys, Olina left more and more traces, blood spots, slightly dented footprints, trampled and broken dents on the walls, etc., although more than a week had passed, almost invisible to the eyes of ordinary people, but they were easily captured by the assassins.

The trio followed these traces all the way, and in this way they walked all the way through most of the city, all the way to the westernmost district of Prince Bill.

Prince Biel's is a wealthy area of the spa city, with many parks lined with ancient trees and neatly groomed round shrubs along the roadside.

In a park, the Assassin lost all clues and could no longer track it down.

"All traces are gone, strange, the eldest lady seems to have flown away suddenly." The Assassin was puzzled.

Parson, a magician who had been silent all the way, suddenly spoke: "No, the situation is very wrong, here, I feel the remnants of a powerful magician." ”

Because it was late at night, it was very dark in the park, but it didn't matter, because the dark elves had dark vision, and because it was late at night, everything was quiet, and there was no breath interference, so the magician Parson could feel a very faint breath, and he walked along the path in the park, and finally came behind a bush.

In fact, on the ruins before, he had already vaguely felt this mysterious aura, but there had been a fire explosion in the ruins, and it used to be a busy city, and the aura was very chaotic, so he was not sure, but this place was different, there was only one magician's aura here, so it was as obvious as a torch in the night.

"It's the most intense smell here! Hedel, look at what traces are here. ”

Hedell, the Assassin's name, walked up and walked around the bushes a few times, then suddenly reached out and grabbed the bushes, and when he stopped it, he had a long black hair on his hand.

"It's a woman's long hair, looking at the color and feel, this person is very young, no more than 20 years old." Hadel Dow.

Parson, the magician, took his hair and looked at it, as if it didn't feel right, looked at it again, and finally picked up his wand and cast a detection spell on his hair.

The shimmer shrouded the hair, and the hair suddenly emitted a faint white glow, which was somewhat like mist, slowly steaming, and with the evaporation of the mist, the hair seemed to be constantly losing its luster.

"This is no ordinary Terran woman, she must be much older than 20 years old, and if I guess correctly, she is a mystical magician. Her target should be the eldest lady. ”

After speaking, he looked left and right for a while, and then pointed to the ground five meters behind the bushes: "This should be her footprints, you can see if you can track her." ”

"Okay." Hedell began to wander around the neighborhood, occasionally lying on the ground to take a closer look, and after about five minutes, he said, "Found it, go this way." ”

The two followed all the way.

This time, the trio chased them straight out of Hot Springs City, and on several occasions along the way, Hedell lost all clues, but with the help of the subtle magical instincts of the magician Parson, they soon found the clues again.

When they arrived outside the hot spring city, the three of them looked at each other.

"The eldest lady fell into the hands of a mysterious magician, and she hasn't been taken out of the city yet, so the situation is not good." Parson, the magician, frowned, and he knew very well that many times, mystical magic had another name, that is, black magic.

Although the Dark Elves are more tolerant of this aspect than the Terrans, because of this, the Dark Elves also have a deeper understanding of mystical magic than the Terrans, this kind of magic is unpredictable, and it is usually very cruel, if the eldest lady is tortured by such magic, even if she does not die, it is very likely to be abolished.

"Don't think about it, our duty is to save the eldest lady! The clue is not broken, keep tracking! But it was Norissa, the warrior, who spoke.

"That's what you said." Hedell nodded, and walked first.

It can be inferred from the traces that the mysterious magician grabbed the eldest lady, stuffed her into a carriage, and then drove all the way out of the city, along the King's Road, all the way west.

After tracking for more than an hour, Heidel said: "The other party got out of the carriage, and the footprints of the eldest lady appeared for a while, and then disappeared again. ”

Parson said: "This is normal, this mysterious magician is a woman, her body strength is very weak, she must have used some kind of floating magic." You just have to look at her footprints. ”

"Hmm."

Hedell squinted his eyes and walked along the forest path, and after a while, he suddenly narrowed his eyes: "Parson, what kind of beast footprints are these, how can they be so huge?" ”

The path in the forest was getting harder and harder, but suddenly the footprints of the giant beast appeared, and Hedell was taken aback, the situation was so complicated that he couldn't think of what was going on here.

Parson leaned down to take a closer look at the footprints on the ground, and after a few minutes, he narrowed his eyes: "It's the footprints of the summoned creature Wind Wolf." A new magical aura appeared here This is the second time it has appeared, and the first time it appears, on the ruins of Hot Spring City, he released that level 4 directional fire magic. ”

"Could it be that this mysterious shrine maiden is with him?" The warrior Norissa reacted immediately.

"Nine times out of ten." Parson's face had become very solemn, and they inquired all the way to Hot Spring City, and learned about the battle that took place in the square of Emerald Street, and knew that a young magician had defeated the eldest lady.

Now, this young magician has reappeared outside the hot spring city, and is also involved with a mysterious magic master, which means that although the eldest lady escaped at that time, it still fell into his hands in the end, and the eldest lady is afraid that Parson will not dare to think about it anymore.

The other two also vaguely guessed something, and their faces sank like water.

Because of the guidance of the footprints of the giant beast, and after that, they were very well tracked, and after about half an hour, the three of them arrived at the edge of the wooden house in the brook in the forest, and as soon as they arrived, the face of the magician Parson turned pale.

He felt the breath of death.

Silent, he quickened his pace and entered the wooden house, and on the small bed in the wooden house, he saw a pool of blood on the animal skin, which was used to detect magic, and the blood glowed silver, it was the blood of the eldest lady.

The Assassin Hadell also found a large number of clues, and he followed them from the cabin to the edge of the creek, and from a series of clues he had already deduced the ending of their eldest lady.

"She was killed, and her body was burned to ashes and thrown into the creek." Hadell's tone was very calm, but his dark red eyes shone with a faint battle glow.

"Can you find a clue to the young magician and the mysterious magician?" The warrior Norissa clenched his sword, since the eldest lady was dead, they could not come in vain, and they were determined to avenge her.

Parson didn't answer immediately, he circled around the wooden house three times, and finally said: "That mysterious magician is very cautious, and all the clues are broken, but that young magician can't escape, he is from the East Valley School of Magic, called Link, this person is famous. Let's go, we'll meet him! ”

"I'll dig out his heart in front of him!" Hedell smiled cruelly.

Parson shook his head: "No, take him back to the north and leave it to the prince to deal with." The prince will let him know what cruelty is! ”

"Yes, Parson is right, this Terran mage can't die easily, hehehehe." Warrior Norissa gritted her teeth. (To be continued.) )
