Chapter 179: The Haunting Cross Regiment
"Hogwarts Flash, the well-known prophet [Sacrificer] was found killed in the early hours of this morning, according to the investigation of the Hogwarts Security Department, according to the report of the necromancer who performed the autopsy at the scene, the Sacrificer was killed yesterday evening from 6 to 7 pm, killing in one hit. The soul of the sacrificer is shattered, and there is no breath left behind by the undead who cannot be repaired and can do evil at the scene, this is a premeditated murder in the secret room. Further investigations are underway, and our station will follow up and report. ”
After a few days of flying by the airship, the city of the academy was already in sight, and from far away Yide and the others, they could see a huge and extremely integrated city in the field of vision, and the sheer size of the academy city shocked Yide. A city? No, this kind of super-giant joint city can no longer be said to be a city, it is a huge urban group aggregation point.
There are a few clouds floating in the sky above the Academy City, but these clouds are different from ordinary clouds, the clouds in the sky are injected with different elements, turning into colorful clouds, under the control of magic, the colorful clouds form the words "Welcome to Hogwarts".
However, what surprised Ed the most was that in a corner of Hogwarts, a beautiful, hanging garden-like floating island floated quietly, and on top of the floating tower, there was a black magic tower that constantly shone with arcane brilliance.
"This is the stargazing tower, which is used to observe the starry sky, and is one of the symbols of our Prophecy Academy. Well, this tower is called the 'Black Tower' by our own people, and there is a tower spirit who is a pervert, the main reason is that the Black Tower is too high, and it is often struck by lightning, otherwise the appearance would not be so black, originally this tower was built of white crystall. If you want to talk about the logo of the Prophecy Academy, there is also a well-known star tower, but the star tower is more weird. In addition to the well-known Star Tower on the ground, there is actually a Mirror Star Tower underground. "When I first heard the bad news of [the sacrificer], Patsy, who was originally full of vitality, has now become a little depressed.
"Patsy, [The Sacrificer] is on good terms with you?" Ide looked at the depressed Patchy and asked with some confusion.
Patchy looked up at Id. Exhale softly, "...... The College of Prophecy is a very special college. There are not many prophets in the entire Divine Grace Continent. Moreover, the way everyone prophesied is also different, and in many cases, when it comes to prophecy, it is actually our group of people who taught ourselves through the Codex of the previous generation of prophets of the Academy. [Sacrificer], this should actually be my senior, and the relationship with me should be both a teacher and a friend. ”
"A murder in a closed room." Ide said with some emotion. Looking at the sluggish Patchy, Ide lowered his eyes and pondered.
"It's hard to imagine that [the Sacrificer] could be killed, and in the City of Academy, he has always been synonymous with good old people. Your Highness, in fact, you can find out that the way the sacrificer prophesied, yes, he sacrificed his own health and even life span to prophesy for others. ”
Id's green eyes were a little deep. He spoke calmly, "As a prophet, perhaps he knows some secrets that he shouldn't know. I have a feeling. Maybe this trip to the City of the Academy will not be too peaceful. ”
Patsy was stunned for a moment, looked up at Id in some surprise, and then recalled the good deeds of the sacrificer, and had to admit that the reason why the sacrificer was killed was probably because he knew some special secret. "It seems that the specific things can only be figured out when we go back to the academy. I believe that with the endless methods of the academy's gangsters, something should have been discovered. ”
"Passengers, Hogwarts, the City of Houses, is about to arrive, please take your belongings with you when you leave."
On an airboat field in the third district of the east of the academy city, the airboat carrying Yide and the others slowly landed.
Follow the flow of people and get off the empty boat. Before Yide and the others had walked a few steps, they saw a gentle royal sister with long pink hair holding a huge sign in a very high-profile manner, which read, "Please go this way from the Ancient Asian Divine Cult Friendship Group", and Yide was stunned for a moment.
With his own pair of divine eyes that can see through all illusions, Ide understood at a glance who the old acquaintance who came to greet him was, the youngest professor of the Illusion Academy, the [Thousand Changes] Loris, that huge sign or something, it was just an illusion, and the real Loris stood calmly in place.
His Excellency the Pope, who had a dark belly, blushed rarely, and looked at the ignorant crowd around him who were talking about the sign not far away, and hurriedly pulled Patchy and the maid Fengxue to run to the direction where Loris was standing.
"Yo, Id. It's been a while. I've already understood what you're going to do in the letter.,Come down and look at me.,I'll help you.,Anyway, I'm also a worshipper of the Ancient Ya God Cult.,Naturally, I should do something or something.。 Seeing Ed and the others hurrying over, Loris smiled and waved her hand, removing the illusion of the huge sign.
Ed nodded, "Then I'll trouble you, Gloris. ”
"Uh...... Professor Clores? Hearing the conversation between Ed and Clores, Patsy, who had been wondering how Ed could have met someone in the College City, suddenly woke up, and Professor Thousand Variations had changed his face again.
In response to Patty's uncertain greeting, the gentle lady with long pink hair smiled, "Well, Patsy, welcome back to school." I've already bought the tickets for Princess Diona's day, and I'm still in the front row, so I'd like to invite you to listen to the music together. ”
"Well, thank you." After hearing Gloris's words, Patchy, who was supposed to cheer excitedly, now just smiled and nodded.
"I'm sorry about the [Sacrificer]." Seeing that Patsy was not very interested, Loris naturally knew why, and after she looked left and right, she raised her hand and arranged a soundproof barrier next to Ed and the others.
"Well, anyway, His Royal Highness Yide is his own person, so it's nothing to say it directly. Honestly, I'll probably need Ed's help this time. Loris shrugged her shoulders slightly, and said with some emotion, seeing Ed and the others staring at her with curious eyes, she hurriedly continued, "According to the code left by the [Sacrificer] at the time of death, we have locked on, and the murderer is a member of the Dark Cross. ”
"Dark Cross?!" Ed's eyes widened in surprise at the same time.
Patchy nodded clearly, and said the words of the Dark Cross, as a prophet, Patchy knows some secrets, and it is no wonder why someone from the Prophecy Academy directly went out to find out the real culprit with prophecy. In the Dark Cross, there is also a prophet who can control his fate, and according to intelligence, everyone calls him 'His Highness the Black Moon'. A legendary prophet does have the ability to cover and interfere with prophecies through certain techniques.
"Well, it's these-stirring sticks." Loris nodded affirmatively, "The people of the Academy City are very capable, which is recognized. In fact, at the grassroots level of the Dark Cross, there is the eyeliner planted by our academy city. According to the information that our informants desperately came up with, it should be the fifth demon [puppeteer] Sneko who shot at the [Sacrificer] this time! ”
