Mephis took the pet to avoid the eyes and ears of the onlookers outside, jumped off the roof all the way, and took a long detour more professionally than a thief, and quietly followed Fippley.

"Master Mephis, doesn't it matter if there's no one in the library?"

"You don't have to worry about this, those books have exclusive imprints, and they can't be taken away without my permission."

Although the various upgrade conditions are becoming more and more demanding, the abilities that are available are very easy to use, and the entire library is like the world of Mephis, not to mention that the door of magic protection cannot be opened by conventional means, even if someone can enter and take a book, Mephis can recall the book with just a thought.

On the night when the city guards and mercenaries pursued the wither, a fire broke out in an alchemy workshop in the city at the same time, and no one escaped.

Mephis didn't know the news of the alchemy workshop yet, but he knew that Phippley was more or less hiding the person he was doing business with, obviously he was such a dangerous customer, and Phippley didn't mention half a word when he was most panicked and scared, did he pretend that nothing had happened and didn't want to cause trouble?

Phippley pulled the empty car all the way from the orphanage back to the Chamber of Commerce Hotel, and along the way kept taking out the information that Mephis gave him, and he seemed to have seized a large amount of wealth in love, and then he put away the information, and looked around, intentionally or unintentionally, as if he was secretly scolding himself for being too careful and patted his head.

"Lord Mephis, look over there."

Herveil's eyes were sharp, and her long combat career made her extremely suspicious signs, but not long after she came to the vicinity of the Chamber of Commerce Hotel, she found a suspicious person, and she saw a guy dressed as an ordinary passer-by along the location she pointed, if this passer-by did not carry an assassin's dagger in his wrist, I am afraid it would be inconspicuous.

Assassinate? No...... Mephis noticed that the Assassin had taken no action, and simply turned away as Phipley entered the inn, quickly disappearing into the crowd.

"Hevier, you follow him."

"Is there anything that needs to be done?"

"No, just wait and see."

The Assassin unhurriedly turned into a remote alley, which was not suitable for further follow-up, and Hevier had to hide on the roof of a distant building to observe, and after a while the Assassin stepped out again, as if the person who had just hung up the phone had put it back in his pocket.

It didn't take long for Hevier to return, and at the same time the assassin returned to his original position, and the ordinary person pretending to be waiting for the boss stood at the door of the inn, and it was not long before a man dressed as a mage appeared in view, and the mage glanced at the Chamber of Commerce inn and walked in.

Mephiss frowned and immediately walked towards the Chamber of Commerce Hotel, and the vague bad premonition came back to her heart strongly.

At this time, Phippley was reorganizing his salute, and was about to go to a far away place to do business, and all kinds of small parts in life should be prepared a little more, at least in triplicate, one for daily life, one in the truck, and one for others to sell.

Knock knock - there was a knock on the door to the room.

"Who's looking for me at this time?"

Phippley muttered dissatisfiedly, put down the clothes in his hand and walked to the door, as soon as he opened the door and saw the other party's dress, Phippley instantly switched to the smiley face mode.

"Hear people say you're lucky Phipley? A businessman who can complete any transaction in the fastest time? ”

"Oh, it's the mage, what a distinguished guest, if there is no second fat man named Fippley, then the person you are talking about must be me."

The mage nodded.

"I have a business I want to talk to you about."

"I'm sorry, I'm very embarrassed, I already have a commission in the next place, although I really want to cooperate with a big man like you, but the businessman has the sincerity of a businessman, please allow me to refuse, I hope you don't blame."

Phippley shook his head like a rattle, how dare he take the mage's business again, they are all big people who don't know each other, and the goods transported are not confirmed, God knows what trouble will be caused, and if there is an accident, the thigh he is holding will first kick him to death This hundred catties of fat.

Even when he was refused, the mage didn't show any regret, but raised his hand.

"You are not qualified to refuse, there is a big man who has taken a fancy to your life, since you are not willing to deliver to your door, I will do it for you."

"It's you-!"

Phipley's eyes widened and he retreated, he thought that he had escaped, and even thought that his little person had been forgotten, as long as he pretended that nothing had happened, did not reveal a single sound, and went to a remote area to avoid the limelight, but this hope was dashed at this moment.

"That's it, you come to clean up the aftermath, I'll go find what he brought out from there."

The mage turned his gaze to Fipley's luggage, who should not have been involved in solving the work of a merchant, but the organization was interested in the materials that Fippley had brought out of the library.

The Assassin looked at the situation inside the house and prepared to set up a suicide illusion, on the surface, the merchant named Fippley was bankrupt because of a business accident, and it was reasonable that he could not accept the blow and commit suicide, and this reason could at least be concealed from most people.

Just then, there was the sound of hurried footsteps downstairs.

"Who?"

"I don't know."

The two of them saw doubts on each other's faces at the same time, hiding in the house and hiding the door to observe the situation outside, if the accident was for someone else, it would be fine, but if it was going straight to this room, it would inevitably take a lot of effort, what reason to find? The scene of a debt collector and a debtor who has a dispute and fight, and then accidentally stabs the other party to death?

Mephis's action interrupted the two people who were thinking, and he kicked in the door simply and rudely, picked up the thick magic book and slapped it on the mage's face, the assassin who escaped the catastrophe reacted very quickly, and immediately escaped from the dagger and prepared to pounce on Mephis, and then he was grabbed by Hevier's neck and lifted in the air, and the speed was almost instantaneous to subdue the two of them.

"Hervier, kill him!"

The moment Heviel received the order, he snapped the Assassin's neck, lifted the man's body and folded it on his knees, almost folding the Assassin ninety degrees from behind before throwing him to the ground.

"Then deal with the people outside the door, and find any reason."

Mephis hurriedly walked to Phipley's side, the fat man was now breathing, his face was purple, and he hurriedly pressed his heart with his hand, slowly channeling the magic in his body to dispel any power that did not belong to Phipley.

"Exhaustion curse? It's good that it's just a salted fish that bites you. ”

It is difficult to tell whether he killed or committed suicide as long as he was cursed to death, and the time spent following the clues at the scene was enough for the murderer to travel around the country.

Curses are very common abilities whose main purpose is to weaken certain attributes, or to continuously drain life and mana, eventually causing them to lose their effects or die.

In the era of the game, there were wizards who were good at cursing, and there were also oracles who were good at dispelling and rejuvenating, and Mephis still remembered that the wizard mentor of the mage tower had introduced, which basically meant that the lower curse magic was to condense a stream of dead air into the human body to achieve the effect, and the dispel magic that players mastered at the beginning was actually to condense a stream of magic to disperse the dead air.

Dispelling the dead qi, Phipley's breathing eased a lot, and his face gradually returned to normal, but after such a toss of the curse, at least he lost his life for more than ten years.

“… May, Mephis... Mr......? ”

"How does it feel?"

"I... No more... Please... Take my legacy... Give it to my family......"

"How can you be so virtuous? Rest well, you're safe now. ”

Seeing that the fat man had regained consciousness and was able to speak, Mephis did not seem to be hurt too much, so he simply let him lie on the ground and turned his gaze to the mage on the ground.

The unknown mage was trampled by Hevier, unable to tell whether it was pleasure or pain, and searched the man's pocket, searching for a piece of value, which was inlaid with emerald gemstones, and the surface of the gem was carved with a bird motif.

Of course, Mephis has seen similar patterns, and not only has he seen them, but the organization that owns this pattern is also the boss of the game's third expansion, which has brought Melia a key role in turmoil, and many people's tragedies are caused by them.

"The symbol of the mourning bird, the secret society of alchemists and mages within the reformers, if you guess correctly, the gang of sand thieves in the deep desert is your people."

“……”

The mage on the ground remained silent and did not say a word, Mephis was not in a hurry, and motioned for Heviel to let go of his hand, and Mephis pulled him up and asked him to the chair.

"It's rude, and for a mage, it should be treated with the most basic respect."

“…… Who are you? ”

The mage gently wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and stared at Mephis fiercely, but as soon as he finished speaking, Mephis threw out a magic book and smashed him to the ground.

"I'm sorry, I'm not very good at entertaining guests, if you have any complaints, you can come and hit me."

"Bastard!"

Mephis took the kettle on the table, poured herself a glass of water to moisten her throat, and then smashed it on the mage's head along with the rest of the water, the shards of the teacup scratched the corners of the mage's eyes, and blood flowed out like tears.

"I didn't expect that as a human being, the racial talent on the ground that did not resist choking the neck, I express my deep condolences for the death of your companion, but the salted fish is dead when it dies, and your identity as a soft-shelled turtle is not low, it should be valuable."

“… Don't think... From me... Know what ......"

Mephis nodded knowingly, and once again dragged the mage up and threw him onto the chair, helping him straighten his collar.

"Of course, from the beginning, I never thought that the torture of a noble mage master to extract a confession, peeling the skin and cutting the body, burying the needle alive, and other pediatrics, will definitely not work for you, the master."

The mage shuddered and swallowed hard.

"That's... Be... Of course ......"

"You're not an academic mage, are you? Forgive me, a mage like you, who focuses on combat, is just using his power to do nonsense with his talent, and he is not much more clever than a goblin wielding a holy sword, but what matters is how much death qi you have accumulated in your body in order to induce the power of the curse? ”

The mage wanted to say something, but Mephis reached out and gently flicked it in front of his eyes, and the flames scorched his forehead.

"Do you know what death can bring?"

Mephis paused for a few seconds, and when he saw the mage's dazed look, he sneered.

"Sure enough, you don't know anything, your mentor hasn't given you these theories at all, hehe, guess why? After death, the **bacteria in the body will grow and multiply wildly because of the dead air, and the unimaginable **bacteria can produce a large number of dirty green **gases, which are filled in the human body, and then you will become a rare giant. ”

"What... Stuff......? ”

"You don't even know about the Giant View?"

Mephiss shook her head lightly with a look of pity on her face.

"It doesn't matter, I'm a good teacher, I can explain it to you today, because you are lucky, in order to catalyze the curse magic, you have accumulated three or four times the death qi of ordinary people in your body, as long as I isolate your control of the death qi, this power will become the best teaching material, and you will have the honor to see the formation process of the giant view with your own eyes."

Without waiting for the mage's reaction, Mephis asked Hevier to bring the mirror in the room for changing clothes and place it in front of the mage.

"Your whole face is swollen like a watered balloon, and then your eyeballs are squeezed out and hung on your cheeks, your lips turn fat and want to turn out, and the tip of your tongue sticks out almost above your chin. Your body will be completely swollen and bulging enough to be rolled down the slope as a tire, oh, forgot, it won't roll so smoothly, because your limbs are thickened at that time, and your skin is also dirty green, so rolling is a jump and a splash of filthy liquid, and then the skin falls off like a glove, and the whole corpse swells and swells into a giant, even if your own mother sees it, she can't recognize you, this is the giant view. ”

"No... You can't do this...... Please......"

"It's okay don't be afraid, it may be a little itchy at first, but soon you don't feel it, I will control the reaction time in a few hours so that you can fully learn the process"

With a frightened look on his face, the mage shook his head desperately as he got up from his chair and tried to jump out of the window, but under Hervel's gaze, he was pressed back to the mirror like a chicken waiting to be slaughtered.

“…… Please spare me. ”

Mephis made a gesture of please.

"Come, relax with a cup of tea, say what you know, no one here will hurt you."
