Chapter Seventy-Four: Tracing the Roots
"What did he do when he showed up?" asked Glade.
"He had a power in that world that kept bouncing me away so that I couldn't cut the threads anymore. I felt like a polo that was kept being hit away by the pole, and finally I ran out of strength and was bounced out of it by him. ”
"Well done, little one, you've already fought with his soul, and it's a shame that you've been fighting a magician for so long as a magic apprentice. Glade stroked her head, "At your current level, it's remarkable. This shows two problems, one is that you are very talented. The second is that the realm of that guy himself is not high, and his mental power is not strong. No wonder it's a sneaky thing, I guess he's probably a wild mage. ”
Jenny was very happy to receive the teacher's praise, and although she was very tired, she still smiled shyly.
"Don't worry, although I can't solve Team Leader Chen's poison, I can still do it if I suppress the poison and keep him from dying in a short time. Seeing that Kalanda looked anxious, Glade walked over to her and said, "I don't know anything about the characters in this world now, have you ever heard of such a person?"
Although Lao Chen was seriously injured, Kalanda was the leader of the mercenary group after all, and she quickly calmed down and recalled some information, "It sounds a lot like that killer 'puppet master'." If it were him, Lao Chen's poison would be very dangerous. ”
Glade raised an eyebrow and said, "Puppeteer, it's not a good thing to hear." ”
"The puppeteer is a killer who has been famous for more than ten years. He was supposed to be a magician and alchemist. This is a very bottomless person, the best at manipulating others through magic, and no one knows where he learned his weird magic. He has a disgusting habit of turning the people around his assassin into puppets that he can control. When he kills, he never shows his face, but always uses these puppets to do it. Because many times, the target is defenseless against the people around him, especially easy to get his hands on, and he himself is not in danger. So, no one has ever been able to catch him at the time of the assassination. ”
Glade thought for a while and said, "Maybe I have a way, we are the heirs of the Spirit Tower, and no one is better at soul matters than us!"

The news of Mayor Chen's encounter with the Assassin's injury spread throughout the town. However, although the news caused an uproar in the town, it did not cause confusion.
Unlike in the time of the barons, the whole town is now run by the town government, the mayor of the town is down, the deputy mayor of the town is still there, the captain of the guard, and the heads of various parts of the industry, trade, intelligence, organization, etc., are still in charge, the heads of various institutions such as farms, forest farms, schools and other institutions are still there, not to mention the mutual aid society, the women's association and other institutions to help manage the locals. As long as these institutions are functioning properly, the people of the town government will be able to control the town.
The feudal era is like a stone axe and a rifle compared to modern administration. The power of modern government is that it reaches every corner and every person in the town. Both control and mobilization were unimaginable to the feudal aristocracy.
Moreover, under the guidance of well-intentioned people, the people of the town are telling the story of Mayor Chen, who stood up to fight for the Assassins when they appeared to attack them, and in the end, the children were unharmed, but the mayor was heroically wounded. A strong vindictive warrior, the administrator of a territory, can fall for a dozen peasant children, which makes Chinese once again elevate in the minds of local residents......

The people from Montenegro still live in the inn they stayed in three months ago.
When the baron was defeated, it was not that no one proposed to live in the small castle of the baron's house, but Chen Hansheng vetoed it on the grounds that it was too detached from the masses. The Baron's castle is now a public area for celebrations and gatherings, with more areas to be opened in the future as facilities such as schools, libraries, and training grounds.
A room on the second floor of the inn. A beam of silver light flashed on Glade's fingertips, and he quickly clicked through several vital points on Chen Hansheng's body, injecting silver light clusters into his head, heart, lungs, and liver...... After these light clusters are planted, they do not dissipate, but are fixed in the corresponding position on Chen Hansheng's body, and Chen Hansheng is like a neon sign in the shape of a human.
"It's going to last another day. According to my estimates, as long as I cast the spell once a day, his current physical condition can last for at least three months. "Glade casts a unique spell that belongs to the Spirit Tower: Body Solidification. This spell was originally used to stabilize the physical state of the target during soul surgery, but now it is used to stabilize the toxins in Chen Hansheng's body, "In three months, we must find this puppeteer, or find other effective antidotes. ”
"Thank you, Glade. If it weren't for you, Old Chen ......" Kalanda wiped her face and cheered up, "Then we can start probing the whereabouts of the puppeteer?"
Glade nodded: "Jenny should be almost recovered after a day's rest,"
Kalanda kissed Chen Hansheng's forehead and followed Glade to the next room. They knocked on the door and entered the room, and it was Doris who opened the door, while Jenny was resting on her bed.
"Teacher. Jenny sat up.
"What do you think, has the spirit of the parasite reunited?" asked Glade.
"Yes. Teacher, I'm ready to start. Jenny said with certainty that she had wanted to use the Spirit of Parasitic Objects yesterday to help Glade find traces of the enemy, but Glade was unwilling to overdraw her soul power and let her rest well before casting spells.
"Hmph, then let that guy know how powerful the Spirit Tower is. With a wave of his hands, a curtain of light appeared on the white wall, and he said to the others, "In a moment, information about Rosa's manipulator will be released, and you all take a closer look at the scene inside, and help me find information that can determine the location." ”
Kalanda and Doris, as well as Wang Zifeng and Maleno, who came later, nodded in agreement.
Glade put his hand on Jenny's head and used all his might to stimulate her parasitic spirit, a soul that had fought with her opponent in the spirit world, and had unknowingly had some ties to the soul of the other party. It is impossible to trace the soul imprint of this level for ordinary mages, but the imprint left by the spirit of the spirit of the Spirit Tower is extremely long-lasting and obvious, and with the corresponding secret technique of Glade, it can be used to find the traces of the other party.
Sure enough, a few seconds later, the scene was revealed in the light curtain on the wall, which was exactly what the enemy had seen and heard at this moment.
