Chapter 47: Inquiry and Temptation

The 'Flashing Technique' can be said to be a powerful spell that Barrett now relies on to save his life, and Barrett almost smashed the pot to sell iron in order to solidify its effect. The Flashdog, on the other hand, has the ability to evoke and terminate similar effects at will, which is much stronger than Barrett's copycats.

What's more, the 'Arbitrary Gate' allows the 'Flashing Dog' to navigate a radius of more than 600 feet, ignoring terrain obstacles. It can be said that unless it is hit by the dimensional anchor in advance, as long as the 'flash dog' wants to escape, I am afraid that few people can easily intercept it.

The 'Flash Dog', which has both of these life-saving abilities, is a little afraid of the Dimensional Anchor and the Dimensional Lock. In the vast majority of cases, it can be said that the sea is wide and the sky is high with the fish, and the birds can fly. So Barrett, scratching the back of his head, couldn't figure out why that creature had disappeared.

Of course, that's not to say that 'Ulrique' didn't have the ability to deal with a 'Flashing Dog' professional. It's just that it is not as easy as it seems to take the 'flashing dog' away without alarming the master and servant of the Colsten family.

There may be a lot of high-ranking people like 'Ulrik' in the capital of Norhan, but how could they have surrendered their status to do such a thing-even the entire Colston family has nothing worthy of the help of those big people, let alone one of the 'watchdogs'.

"So before and after the Mr. Graeme you call him, has anything happened in the house that is different from usual? Or what special visitors have been. Barrett adjusted his words as closely as he could, following the habits of the girl in front of him. Because for this task at hand. His mind suddenly became a little bottomless.

"Anomaly or guest?" Ulrika reached out and grabbed the feather fan on the table, lost in thought. Next, except for Barrett, who was still staring at the client, the remaining players took the time to start looking at the atrium in front of them. From time to time, several ladies exchanged ears, as if commenting on the art style and the owner's taste.

It took about 5-10 minutes. Ulrika finally let go of the palm that was holding the feather fan: "Speaking of anomalies, I really didn't notice anything. And after Mr. Graeme's disappearance, we also conducted an investigation specifically in this area. But there is no news of this either. As for the visitors, we at Colston didn't receive any visitors that day. ”

"If that's the case, it's really a bit of a problem." Barrett frowned, then touched his chin and thought for a moment before speaking, "Do you have any of the everyday items that Mr. Graeme used?" ”

"Barrett, you don't want me to use the 'Trajectory Dance', do you!" When Rieley heard Barrett make such a request, she immediately understood what the other party wanted to do. She reminded with some nervousness, "Use the words 'Trajectory Dance' in 'Ulrique'. We may face a fine of at least 300 gold. That's already one-tenth of the quest pay, and I'm afraid it's a bit more than worth the loss if you add in the cost of casting spells! ”

"If a few are worried about fines. I'm going to have someone go to the town hall and ask for permission to cast the spell right now. With the status of the Colston family, it should still be able to get a quota a few times. Ulrika hurriedly spoke, obviously trying to stabilize the blood-stained gray flowers.

"If that's the case, that's great." Barrett thanked him but also made his own request, "If you can, it's best to apply for cast permission twice." Also, it is best not to limit one of the cast locations to the Colston family's mansion. ”

Hearing this, Ulrika raised her eyebrows. The gaze that looked at Barrett suddenly became vigilant: "What do you mean by this?" ”

At the same time, 'Ms. Isbelle', who was originally curled up and lying on the ground, also raised her head at this time. The pupils in the pair of emerald green cat's eyes contracted violently.

Permission to cast spells in 'Ulrik' is not something that anyone can apply for. A new generation of court nobles like the Colston family would probably have to work hard to get two permits. More importantly, when applying for permission, it means that the family needs to bear some joint and several liability for the next spell casting.

In other words, if someone takes that spell casting permit and takes advantage of the loopholes of the mystery lock to do something illegal. After being discovered, the Colston family will also be punished jointly. Of course, if it was just the fines on those gold coins, the Colston family might not care too much. But if this happens, it will definitely affect the reputation of the Colston family.

This is not allowed for the Colston family, which is still on the rise. It's no wonder that the second lady of the Colston family heard Barrett's request. It's going to react like that.

Barrett, who knew that the other party might have misunderstood something, quickly explained: "If you want to locate Mr. Graeme, you have to cast spells in two different locations to be able to confirm its approximate location. Otherwise, all you get is a direction. Of course, if the first cast concludes that Mr. Graeme is dead or not on the main plane, then the second cast becomes meaningless. You can arrange for someone to observe the whole spell process. Make sure we have this opportunity to try something else. ”

"Alright! If it's really necessary to find Mr. Graeme, then I'll have someone try to get the casting permission you need. The skeptical Ulrika then emphasized: "Of course, I will also arrange for someone to supervise the whole process of casting the spell." ”

"Don't worry! Our bloodstained Grey Flower Mercenary Regiment is notoriously law-abiding citizens. How could you do something that broke the law for no reason? Barrett was afraid that he was not convincing enough, so he immediately laid out his previous deeds: "I was in the city of Poitou before. We are always on the front lines of the fight against the invasion of the lower planes. And it has been officially awarded. ”

"I'll arrange for someone to check on this matter. I hope you're telling the truth! Otherwise, you know the consequences. Ulrika said in a very stiff tone.

"We're open and honest about this, and we don't have to worry about anything at all." Although it seems to be a bit weak in words. But Barrett was not at all worried about the threat of the young girl named Ulrika.

Because in terms of identity. Barrett is probably not much different from the other party now. The other party is the daughter of a noble family of the court. Although she was recognized as a nobleman, she did not have any titles - even the patriarch of the Colsten family was only a lord without a fief, and her daughter was naturally only an empty nobleman until she was married.

Although Barrett is now only a side branch of the Boreham family, don't forget that the Borem family is a very prominent force in the Norhan Kingdom. So even if it is a side branch, as long as the surname still exists and the family tree is famous, then the nobility group of the Nohan Kingdom. Barrett's pedigree must be recognized.

Although the blood relationship between Barrett and the current Earl of Bullebo is really a bit distant, this alone may not be enough. However, Barrett's status as a member of the Red Iron Rank successfully made up for the problem of blood relationship. After having these two identities, he will naturally be accepted as one of them by the aristocratic group behind him.

So even though 'Ulrique' was the home of the court nobility. As long as he returned to the Chamber of Commerce and connected with the local aristocratic forces in 'Ulrike', Barrett was confident enough to make the girl in front of him have a seizure.

This is also the reason why Barrett did not salute the girl in front of him before, causing the other party to frown. The identities of the two sides are equal, and Barrett naturally does not need to make the etiquette of meeting the superior. What's more, the two positions are likely to conflict. In this case, Barrett would be a sign of weakness if he saluted. If it gets out, it will damage Barrett's reputation in his own camp.

Seeing that her words did not have the desired effect, Ulrika was naturally not ready to be bored - in her opinion, the intersection between herself and the mercenaries in front of her who did not know the etiquette was only one time. Then she summoned the servants of the family and went to the city guard with the token to apply for the permission needed to cast the spell.

Of course, it takes time to apply for permission to cast spells, and after arranging for people to handle that aspect of the matter, the courtyard naturally fell into a different kind of embarrassment. Ulrika is reluctant to talk to the mercenaries she thinks are rude, and the players are not in the habit of sticking their hot faces to other people's cold fart.

Looking at Ulrika's performance, Barrett secretly made this judgment in his heart: "The second lady of the Colston family is really inexperienced. During the contact just now, didn't she notice anything? If the so-called new generation of court nobles are like this, it seems that my purpose this time is not difficult to achieve! I hope this is not an isolated case! ’

If the second lady of the Colston family really has a complete elite education. After discovering that Barrett's greeting was different from what he expected, it was impossible to just think that it was Barrett's uneducated faux pas. Instead, we should think about whether there is any other reason for this - you must know that there are still quite a lot of mercenary squads composed of nobles on this continent, such as knights who have completed the rite of adulthood and traveled abroad. It is an important part of this group. If you don't pay attention to the details and show off your superiority, sooner or later you will suffer a big loss.

Although it is never a pleasant thing to get along with such an employer. But on the other hand, if the opponents you face this time are all of this type, it is definitely good news.

The application process seemed very cumbersome, and after nearly 2 hours of waiting, players finally got two cards that looked like metal tokens. Rielly, who took the card, immediately activated the detection magic. Immediately, a royal blue aura immediately entered her line of sight.

After passing the appraisal of 'Mysterious Knowledge', Rielly nodded: "That's right! This is a special curiosity that can be used in conjunction with the Lost Lock. When a nearby wearer casts a spell, it senses a wave and sends a special signal to the Lock. Of course, after each signal, the artifact will be temporarily disabled until it is recharged by the Lock. ”

"Don't say so much! Now that the permission has arrived, why don't you hurry up and cast the spell? As an employer, Ulrika was clearly waiting a little impatiently.

Rielly looked at the silver basin that had been placed in front of her eyes, the lines on it were clear and delicate, obviously hand-carved rather than molded. Picking up the cleaned utensils and holding them in her hands, Rielly sighed: "Even the food bowls used by pets are such high-end goods. I'm not afraid of being scratched by the fangs of the 'Flashing Dog'......"

With such a plate as a medium for spellcasting, Rielly dared to dance in the atrium - the 'Dance of Tracks' spellcasting ritual was so special that it would not be in front of her companions. However, in addition to the employer, there were also her servants in this atrium, which naturally made Rielly feel uncomfortable for a while.

The silver plate that was held tightly drew one shining silver arc after another as Rielly danced. Eventually, the silver platter stopped at the foot of the courtyard, and the corners of Rielly's mouth turned up slightly: "That 'flashing dog' should still be alive, and now it is in this position." ”

"This direction!" Ulrika's eyes widened as she stared at the corner of the courtyard. Then he waved his hand at the few people beside him, as if he had the idea of smashing the stone to see what was going on.

Seeing the other party's behavior like this, Rieli immediately stopped it: "It's just a general direction, it's not that it's trapped in there." If the next 'flashing dog' is not necessarily. We only need to perform a second spell in a different location to find out its approximate location in 'Ulrik'. ”

For the second spell cast, the players chose to be located a full 1 mile away from the Colston Mansion to prevent serious disturbances due to tutoring issues. After the noodles were marked on the 'Ulrike' map in his hand, Barrett immediately frowned: "How can it be where?" Horse team area! Maybe before we get over, the 'flashing dog' will have been transferred. ”

"Isn't it possible to find Mr. Graeme once the location is confirmed?" At this time, the waiter who followed everyone couldn't help but ask. (To be continued)

ps: Yesterday's starting point convulsions used a leave note, so as long as it is sent now.

At the same time, I would like to thank "PKUU" and "Clear Night Starry Sky" for their monthly votes.
