095 Darkness Emerges

Returning from the Rose Manor, Green and Earl Norton each went to their own databases to search for records of dark magic over the years, and Sei also sent a message back to the court magician to ask for information. Facts have proved that everything cannot stand up to scrutiny. You didn't find anything, it can only mean that you didn't pay attention to him at first, and after everyone's efforts, a huge shadow organization shrouded the heads of the countries on the continent gradually began to appear.

In the conference room provided by the Earl of Norton, rows of papers were spread out on the large conference table. It had been a few days since everyone had left the Rose Manor.

The first to send back the news was the Adventurers' Guild, after being forced by Green to re-establish contact with the Manning Guild, Gülen received from the headquarters the information on the dark events that the Adventurers' Guild had dealt with for nearly fifty years.

In the past, when the Adventurers' Guild encountered a dark magic event, once it was found that there was a violation of the Continental Convention, it would immediately mobilize the members of the hunter group around it to exterminate it, and what was sent to the headquarters of the Manning Adventurers' Guild afterwards was a report document, and in these documents, Green found many signs of sword qi warriors and special magic arrays.

"Captain, why didn't you notice it before?" asked Gülen, who was accompanying him to check it, curiously.

As the leader of the hunter group, Green is also reflecting on himself, the mainland has been peaceful for a long time, and the adventurer's guild also acquiesces that the dark forces of all parties only dare to cause trouble in private, every time the dark magic event is successfully resolved, the hunters will celebrate it, and no one has ever examined the relationship between them, until in recent years, the gradually increasing number of dark magic events have slowly attracted the attention of the general association, before this, the main work of the adventurer's guild has shifted to the release of mercenary tasks.

After sorting out the relevant information, among the hundreds of event materials in the past fifty years, Green found that there were about more than ninety dark events involving the magic array, of which only more than half were "blood arrays", and the rest of the magic arrays were different. And the samurai with sword qi have appeared everywhere many times.

In addition, Green was surprised to find that the Adventurers' Guild had captured the existence of the Dark Rising organization many times in the past ten years. Yes, Green can now confirm that Dark Rise is an organization. Eight years ago, the former head of the Hunters reported that they had exterminated an evil organization that practiced dark magic, and found a large number of uniform logos and clothing among the relics of the dark mages, and the words "Dark Rising" appeared in a prominent position.

However, in the follow-up investigation, the appearance of Dark Rising was not seen for a while, and the successor hunters did not pay attention to it, and regarded Dark Rise as the name of the small organization that had been wiped out.

Green can't blame his predecessors for not working hard, indeed, if it weren't for the cooperation of many parties, he would not be able to locate the existence of such a terrorist organization until today. And in the year of lack of information, there was even more no way.

Of course, Setie also has gains.

In fact, the mainland now has a very rich means of transmitting information. In the beginning, the royal family, the army, and the great nobles of various countries used manpower to transmit information. Later, this inefficient and unsafe way of human transmission was criticized by various countries. As a result, the Adventurer's Guild was commissioned to invent the method of "Flying Bird Messenger". The huge low-level monster "Flamingo" was tamed and used to deliver letters.

The Flamingo is a low-level magical beast that can blow a strong wind and increase its flight speed to about five hundred miles a day, and at the same time, thanks to its size, the Flamingo flying in the air basically has no natural predators. Adventurers' guilds and guilds generally rely on flamingos to convey information, unless it is important content that must be protected by humans (Note 1). Recently in White Rock City, Glenn communicated with Manning's general association in this way, in fact, each adventurer's chapter is equipped with a special whistle that can summon nearby idle flamingos, these birds were domesticated when their respective chapters were established.

And Setty, as one of the only remaining magicians in the continent, the methods they use are obviously much more sophisticated, and they are all space magic or space magic arrays left over from the magic empire. Of course, because of the existence of the Convention, this means is limited to magicians.

So through the magic circle, Setty received a lot of information from the court magicians of San Jose.

The first is the magic circle of the Rose Manor, through the efforts of the magicians in the large library, its manifestation was discovered, similar to a very evil spiritual magic "soul extraction", it is essentially an evil spiritual killing magic, in the era of the Magic Empire, it was widely used. This magic uses mental power to impact the human brain, causing the brain to feel endless pain, as if the soul will be out of the body. In fact, the nobles of the Magic Empire often used this magic to interrogate prisoners.

Strangely, this record of magic is only kept in the few words of the Great Library of San Jose, and there are no actual magic spells left. The existence of the magic array has deepened its range of action and power, but the magic array itself has not appeared in any records at all, and it seems that it has been artificially improved.

The court magicians of San Jose, who found the right direction, showed their ability, and after Green provided relevant information, they dug up more information on the magic array, and they all had some obvious things in common: first, almost all of them were variants of spiritual magic, and many of them were expanded from single magic to magic arrays with similar functions. Second, almost all of them can only be found in the Magic Empire materials in the Great Library, and no one in the world knows how to use them. Third, judging from the information provided by Green to the Adventurers' Guild, these magic arrays have definitely existed for more than fifty years.

Green said that fifty years of information was the limit of what he could provide, and that more information would require the Guild of Elders to agree to authorize. However, even fifty years of information is basically enough. The dark magic events of fifty years ago, as far as he knew, weren't too many.

The direction of Duke Norton's and General King's investigation is biased towards investigating within the Desik Empire. Thanks to General Jin's status as General Garrison, the entire garrison was mobilized by General Jin, focusing on the foreign population that had recently entered the territory of Desik and White Rock City, focusing on dark mages and dark warriors.

The information on the mysterious cases found by Earl Norton in the Prime Minister's Mansion was basically confirmed to be related to the dark organization, and it seems that the magicians of the dark organization are also constantly experimenting with their magic array, so there is a matter of domestic animals being sucked dry of blood by the magic circle.

General Kim's actions were a bit big, and even the Kaiser was alarmed and sent Archduke Edward to inquire, but he was dismissed by the old and spicy General Kim with "receiving a report that a dark mage has entered White Rock City, and in order to prevent a recurrence of the Manning incident, it has to be so".

So, in the large conference room of the Earl of Norton, rows of clues of dark magic event materials, dark organization documents, and information provided by court magicians were all displayed in front of everyone.

Earl Norton cleared his throat, he was the moderator of the meeting today, and in addition to General King, Green, and Setty, as well as Setty's two companions, Pete and Angelina, there were also Earl Norton's Diplomats, the Officers of Internal Affairs, who needed to coordinate domestic and international relations, such as with the Adventurers' Guild, the two battalion generals under General King, who were in charge of the main manhunt operations, and the representatives of the court eunuchs sent by the Kaiser and an intelligence officer sent by the Grand Duke Edward. Green and Setie also donned their fines and attended the meeting as official international ambassadors.

"If there were still some doubts before, then, after everyone's efforts, we have basically confirmed this matter. A new dark terrorist organization, Dark Rising, is located in the territory of Desik, no, it should be said that it operates throughout the continent. In recent years, the 'Carman Incident', the 'Manning Incident', the 'Westside Bridge Incident' and the San Jose 'Cape Island Incident' can almost all be confirmed to have been premeditated by this organization.

Even in the records of White Rock City over the years, there have been many recorded incidents, including the murder of the former crown prince 'Rose Manor' that everyone here has heard of. ”

Earl Norton's words shocked everyone, and everyone who heard about it for the first time began to discuss it one after another.

"Lord Earl, are you saying that the murder of thirty people in the Crown Prince's Manor, which was making a lot of noise in White Rock City at that time, was premeditated by the dark organization?"

"I'm afraid so. Earl Norton, nodded heavily.

The palace eunuch sent by the royal family asked, "Will it endanger the safety of the royal court?" Manning, I heard that the royal family of Manning is very ugly. ”

"The chief (Note 2) is relieved," replied General Kim, "We have strengthened the guards around the palace, and I will not dare to relax at this moment, as the general of the central garrison." ”

The palace eunuch nodded and did not speak again.

Seeing that everyone had no doubts, Earl Norton continued, "We have designated the Dark Rising organization as a terrorist organization, and we will search for it nationwide. At present, the focus of the search is on the two portraits provided by the Adventurers' Guild, which have now been distributed to the front-line soldiers. The others, the three magicians of San Jose, will stay in White Rock City for a short time to cooperate with our work, and I will personally report this to His Majesty the Emperor!"

At this moment, the door to the venue was pushed open, and an officer of the garrison hurried in, came to General Kim's side, and handed over a piece of parchment.

General Jin looked down twice and looked up at everyone, "I'm afraid, our meeting is about to be suspended, and the garrison soldiers under him have found some anomalies in the east of the city." ”

Green's eyes lit up, "Does it have anything to do with what we discussed in the meeting?"

General Jin nodded emphatically, "That's right!"

The audience was in an uproar.

Note 1: Flamingos, a large, low-level magical beast with few natural predators and a docile temperament, were domesticated to deliver letters and small items. However, it is a kind of Warcraft after all, and the official national letters and official documents of various countries generally have to be transmitted by manpower.

Note 2: The Desik Empire likes to use court eunuchs to serve the king, and unlike other countries, Desik's eunuchs will have a certain political ability, and often appear as the emperor's intelligence director or adviser. Therefore, the ministers of Desik generally called them governors.
