Chapter Nine: The Nanheng Bloody Case (II)
There aren't many magicians who can kill people with spiritual magic, and they will help at this time, and Brian doesn't have to guess to know that it's the mysterious enemy. However, Bryan is really afraid of the means of the enemy. Quietly discovered the three secret guards, and asked them to kill them before they even had time to send out the alarm for help, using the incomparable spiritual magic. This kind of magic that cannot be prevented will be feared by anyone.
Meng Yuchen was thinking about something else. Thinking about the daytime, the spirit and what he said.
Meng Yuchen's thoughts, Filch and Brian didn't know, since the dark guard was solved, it was natural to continue to go on.
But then, something even more surprising happened, all the magicians and samurai guards below the ninth floor had all died cleanly, and all of them died in peace and ease. Apparently they didn't even notice that someone was attacking them, and from the fact that no one showed any panicked expressions, they were all killed at the same time. At the very least, every floor of the guards was taken out at the same time.
Filch, Meng Yuchen, and Brian exchanged colors, with complicated expressions. I have long known that this enemy soul is not simple, but I didn't expect it to be so powerful. Silently killed all the guards in the entire building. The most terrifying thing is that even the three of them are completely unnoticed.
Just as the three of them were about to move forward with complicated expressions, the vengeance quietly appeared in front of them.
"No need to go any further!" the Haunt continued in his unpleasant voice that seemed to be pieces of rusty iron rubbing against glass, "I've killed all the guards in the building, and the alarm system down there has been turned off. As long as you don't cast too much magic here, no one will notice!"
"When did you come in? After us, why didn't you show up sooner?" Although Filch is a dual cultivator of magic and martial arts, he is still a warrior at heart, and he is very uncomfortable with such sneaky movements as the hatred spirit.
"Pretty much, but you're coming in from above, and I'm coming in directly from the first floor!" the Haunt grinned, and went straight into the wall on the side, and then came out again, "This kind of wall without the magic of isolation is nothing to me!"
"Enviable craftsmanship!" said Brian.
"Envy?" the Hater smirked, "If you knew what I lost, I wouldn't have said that!"
"Don't waste any time!" Filch interrupted the enemy, "Now that you've gone around and you've been to the place where you stored your things, have you found what you're looking for?"
"That thing is naturally protected by them, how can it be placed in a place where things are usually stored," the evil spirit said casually: "If it is placed in those places, wouldn't the officials of the mountain city know about it?"
"In other words, we have to go to the place where they live to find a circle," Brian nodded: "Then don't say more, it will change later, let's leave quickly!"
The vengeant didn't say much, and quietly disappeared in place. The three of them rolled over and ran upstairs again.
The thirteenth to seventeenth floors are the dormitories for the Institute's researchers. Normally, the researcher would have gone home to rest, but since this afternoon, it has been raining heavily in Nanheng City. The researcher's work just happened to be the biggest time to go down, and it didn't mean to slow down until now. As a result, almost all of the researchers spent the night in the dormitory of the institute.
The office building also has a magic platform that can directly and quickly reach each floor, but Filch and the others are worried that the magic fluctuations will attract the attention of people in the middle of the night, so they all take the stairs on foot. I thought it would be difficult to find a dormitory, but it turned out to be surprisingly smooth, because the name of the dormitory owner and the research room to which it belonged was written on the door of each dormitory. The trio quickly found the rooms of the three targets.
The first one is Fran Daigo. It is affiliated with the Space Magic Research and Application Laboratory.
Since the magic vigilance of the entire building had been broken by the Haunts, the three of Filch broke into the door directly. Of course, the sound of breaking the door was slightly controlled, otherwise even if the alarm did not go off, it would inevitably wake up the other researchers. Although these researchers tend to be much lower than mages of the same level in terms of actual combat ability due to their perennial research, they often obtain some strange magic as a result of their research. None of the three had any intention of trying it.
Therefore, although it was directly broken in, there was not much movement. There was a lot of snoring in the room, and Fran was clearly asleep and not woken up.
Filch quickly slid into the dormitory, although the layout of the dormitory large suite surprised him at the high standard of the dormitory for the researchers of the Yamashiro Academy, but he did not stop for half a minute, and went directly to the bedroom, where the moon blade slashed through the throat of Fran, who was still sleeping. A handful of blood spurted out and splattered onto the wall, and Fran's snoring came to an abrupt halt.
Filch first pulled the seventh-degree gold ring from Fran's finger, which was obviously strangely fluctuating, and unceremoniously brought it on his hand. This time there were three targets, and there were three rings, and the three of them were destined to be one each. As for the hater, he said at the beginning that he would not touch the harvest this time.
The three of them rummaged through the room and found a dark compartment, but there were only a few crystal coins and a magic crystal card inside. Nothing else. Filch, the crystal coin, unceremoniously put it into the newly acquired spatial ring. Although Filch had never used a space ring before, this thing is really convenient and can be used as soon as you get your hands on it. It's just that time is pressing, and Filch doesn't have time to check anything other than to check if there is anything targeted in the space ring.
After carefully inspecting both sides, the three of them went out, closed the door, and went to the next target's room.
Since Ji Chengcheng and the other female researchers lived on another floor, the three of them found the second target first, when Jiang Chenghuan's room. Coming to the gate of Jiangcheng Huan, Meng Yuchen suddenly had a strange idea in his heart. If...... Could it be that Ji Chengcheng also lives in this room? Or does Jiang Chenghuan live in Ji Chengcheng's room? During the day, Ji Chengcheng admitted that Jiang Chenghuan was his boyfriend.
Of course, no one knew about Meng Yuchen's strange thoughts, and Filch carefully pried open the door again, but there was a question in the room: "Who!"
As soon as Meng Yuchen heard it, he could tell that it was the voice of Jiang Chenghuan he had seen during the day, and Jiang Chenghuan was actually awake!
The three of them were all shocked, and peeked through the crack in the door outside to see if the lights were not turned on inside, and it was already the middle of the night. The three of them subconsciously felt that Jiang Chenghuan had already slept, but they didn't expect that he was still awake!
Without any communication, the three of them quickly rushed in, trying to kill Jiang Chenghuan when he reacted to avoid causing more movement.
However, Jiang Chenghuan's reaction could not be described as unpleasant! He was used to going to bed late, and before going to bed, he studied the space magic that he was not very familiar with. As Aegean's first true space magician, he felt obligated to perfect this wonderful magic as soon as possible.
I heard movement outside the door, followed by a slight sound of the door opening!
The doors of the dormitory apartments of the Yamashiro Academy Research Institute are all magic locks, which can only be opened by the owner's own magic fluctuations. Each person will have subtle differences in mana fluctuations due to the strength of their magic, the strength of their mental power, their attributes, and even their physique. It's hard to have two people whose magic fluctuations are exactly the same. Even the same person's magic fluctuations at different times vary greatly. Therefore, this kind of magic door will basically not be opened except for himself. Even before I leave, it's best to synchronize the mental fluctuations again, otherwise if you don't come back for three or five days, the magic fluctuations are a bit big for some reasons, and you may not be able to enter the door!
Jiang Chenghuan was originally a flame department cultivator, and speaking of which, he had some intersections with Ye Hanshuang and others. He is Jiang Jieqian's own brother and Jiang Yuhan's cousin! After concurrently cultivating the second series of space magic, he has already obtained the title of magician. His magic fluctuations are compatible with the characteristics of the fire system and the characteristics of the space system, and it can be said that the whole Aegean is the only one! His door can't be opened by anyone but himself! But at this time, the door is opened, so it can only be forcibly opened by external forces, but the forced opening does not trigger the magic alarm, Jiang Chenghuan already knows that something is wrong after questioning!
Seeing a figure rushing in, he subconsciously threw away a fire dragon technique, and then used the space magic space to jump (flicker) and prepare to flee quickly. No matter what kind of enemy it is, since the opponent can break the alarm magic, it must be prepared. Whether you have the possibility of victory or not, it is better to leave first!
If Jiang Chenghuan had escaped with a spatial jump at the beginning, he might have been able to escape this catastrophe. It's a pity that he is not proficient in spatial magic, although as a high-level magic space jump, as a magician, he can already achieve instantaneous, but he still needs to tidy up the magic structure a little. Moreover, he was the first to practice flame magic, and it has been more than ten years, and the routine of flame magic is deep in the bone marrow, so the first reaction subconsciously is to use flame magic to fight back.
The magician's high-level magic fire dragon technique, even the three of Brian have to deal with it carefully. Brian and Meng Yuchen released the blood baby at the same time, and the blood baby instantly sent two blood arrows, blasting the fire dragon technique in the air, but they also clearly saw that Jiang Chenghuan disappeared in place in a flash. Filch's wind blade and Meng Yuchen's flying sword both missed and landed on the wall behind him, leaving deep marks on the wall.
The three of them secretly shouted that it was bad, Jiang Chenghuan was the first cultivator of space magic. When the theory of space magic was first introduced, it was very popular with the magicians, because in addition to its strong ability to attack fortifications, it was also a first-class escape magic!
Seeing that the target had disappeared on the spot, the three of them knew that he had escaped with space magic! But there was no trace of this space magic escape, so that the three of them didn't even know where to chase it. Once Jiang Chenghuan escapes, he will definitely be more vigilant in the future, and it will be difficult to imagine that it is so easy to touch his side today!
Just when the three of them were very anxious, Jiang Chenghuan, who had just disappeared, suddenly fell back to the same place!
Jiang Chenghuan looked panicked, he didn't understand why the space jump didn't fall outside the originally expected building, but returned to the same place. But he couldn't think much about why! A pale and slender bone spear pierced his throat from behind! Aegean's first spatial magician who had grown up by cultivation died......
The arm, which had been black and seemed to be real and imaginary, stretched out from the wall behind Jiang Chenghuan, and pulled out the bone spear inserted in the back of Jiang Chenghuan's neck. The bone spear disappeared without a trace in his hand, and immediately after, a black shadow slowly emerged from the wall, naturally it was the enemy spirit.
"It's so dangerous, I almost let this guy run away!"
"Why are you ......" Brian was a little surprised, Jiang Chenghuan had obviously teleported away, how could he suddenly appear again.
"I forcibly changed his landing coordinates with my mental power!" The enemy replied flatly: "This guy's mental power is very strong! I almost couldn't pull him back! In order to pull him back, I also paid a small price, and I could only solve him in this stupid way!"
The stupid way that the Haunt spoke of was naturally a bone spear, and for a mage, melee attacks were obviously a stupid way.
"It's good to solve it!" Brian nodded, stepped forward and took off the space ring from Jiang Chenghuan's hand, and after a little inspection, he showed a happy look. Then the colorful light in his hand flashed, and a dagger with a simple shape appeared in his hand.
It was a swarthy dagger, with only the blades on either side gleaming with colorful light. The shape is simple, but the whole body is covered with diamond-shaped patterns, and each diamond-shaped pattern is engraved with extremely fine textures. The texture in each pattern is different.
"That's it!" Brian said happily, "Now that the thing is in hand, go to that little girl's place, take the ring and go!"
"No need!" said the Hate, and then a black-haired man the size of a thumb, with four arms, and a spiraling black mist on the lower half of his body, quietly appeared, holding a ring in his arms that he had taken from Jiang Chenghuan and Fran with Brian and Filch.
"Hernandez?" Brian was very knowledgeable, and said the real name of the Thumb Ghost.
The Thumb Turtle is the weakest magical beast in the undead department, and loves to cling to the silent oil lamp in the depths of the ancient tomb, sniffing the smell of light and destruction, and as an undead spirit, it has the strange habit of turning to the light, which is really strange and impressive.
The thumb ghost slowly floated in front of Meng Yuchen and handed over the ring. Meng Yuchen turned the ring and looked at the enemy with a strange expression.
"I've already killed that little girl, let's just leave!" said the vengeant blandly.
Brian looked at the enemy soul quietly, and the enemy spirit was very calm. However, his whole body was shone in the smoke of the black robe, and he didn't know what his expression was.
"Hehe," Brian suddenly smiled: "The enemy makes a move, we are naturally relieved, then let's go!"
The vengeance roared and disappeared in place. Brian's smiling face disappeared suddenly, and he glanced at Meng Yuchen, Meng Yuchen checked the ring, it was indeed a seventh-degree golden space ring, so he nodded. Brian gritted his teeth, told the dagger to put away, and said, "Since you're here, don't waste it, go around the ninth and sixth floors, and see what precious materials there are!"
"You go, I'll go up and take a look at that girl!, just in case!" Meng Yuchen said. Brian nodded, and Filch hurried downstairs, while Meng Yuchen went upstairs.
Cautiously found Ji Qingcheng's room, the door was still locked! But thinking about the ability of the enemy to penetrate the wall like nothing, Meng Yuchen was not surprised. Just as he was about to break into the door in the same way, the vengeful spirit suddenly came out of the door, and Meng Yuchen, who thought about it, was a spirit, and retreated again and again.
"What, don't worry about me?" said the Hater laughed in a low voice.
"I'm just going to see if you will do anything you shouldn't do!" Meng Yuchen replied coldly.
"Is it something you want not to do?" the Haunt mocked in a low voice, "I've heard a little about your deeds in the Realm of Chaos!"
"You ......" Meng Yuchen's eyes were cold.
"By the way, you just said you were leaving, and now those two should be almost at the top, you can escape, right?"
"What do you mean?" Meng Yuchen wondered, he knew that Brian was greedy and went to find precious magic materials.
"It's not interesting, I just forgot to say one thing...... "The enemy laughed: "This building also has the most special alarm, which is the countdown alarm, if the magic control room is not triggered for a period of time, the alarm will automatically sound, calculate the time......"
Before the vengeful spirit could finish speaking, a piercing magic alarm had already sounded throughout the building,
"Sure enough, I was right!" the enemy grinned, and slid into the floor. Meng Yuchen gritted his teeth, walked quickly to the end of the stairs, kicked open the window at the end of the stairway, and jumped into the rainy night.
