Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Storm Will Rise

"Brother Morris, don't worry, Dean Flender is also here!" Reynolds greeted the city lord of Mangala City, and quickened his pace towards the meeting room, it was not easy to talk about things outside.

"Dean?" Arthur glanced at Flender out of the corner of his eye, "He turns out he is the dean of Mangala Academy!"

"Uncle Flender is also there, great, I don't have to go to the academy to find his old man again," the middle-aged man's surprised voice came, getting closer and closer.

Walking quickly into the parlor, Reynolds ordered the maid to pour the tea, then pointed to Arthur and said, "This is my son, who is now well." Arthur, this is your Uncle Morris. ”

"Hello, Uncle Morris" Arthur bent slightly, making a good manner.

Morris obviously had something in his mind, but he still nodded and signaled, he already knew about Arthur's situation, and he wouldn't be too surprised.

When the maid slowly retreated and closed the doors and windows, Fauber stood silently near the door to prevent any emergency.

"Uncle Flender, Brother Reynold, is it so, do you know about the recent murders?" said Maurice as soon as the maid had retreated.

Reynolds and Flender looked at each other, and both shook their heads at Morris, they were usually busy people who had no time to focus on other things.

"Thirty days ago, a young man died in a small village west of Mangala without any fighting and no noise from the surrounding villagers. The young man's face was as dry as the trunk of a tree, and there was a small wound on his neck, but there was no other wound!"

"Twenty-two days ago, in a small town north of Mangala, a husband and wife were killed, this time there was a fight, the woman had a sword wound in the neck, it was a sword fatal, the man was still dry, this time the wound was on the shoulder. But this time I wonder why no one hears a fight, even though there is a fight?"

"Eighteen days ago, a solo traveler was killed in the mountains west of the city of Mangala. ”

"Fifteen days ago, three travelers were killed south of Mangala"

"Seven days ago, a group of four warlocks from Mangala City were all killed on the official road to the west, and the method was the same as the previous ones. ”

"Just last night, in the small town east of our Mangala City, all 13 members of the Wuqin car shop were killed. ”

"In this month, there were 24 people killed, and the murder methods were the same, and it is certain that the murderer was targeting the warlock. The cause of the warlock's death was all death from sucking out the essence in his body. The rest of the ordinary people are all one-hit kills, which shows that he is a professional killer!"

Reynolds rubbed his chin with his palms, his eyes flickered a few times, and he said in a low voice: "Suck up the essence in your body? It's a bit like the methods of those guys thirty years ago!"

"Thirty years ago?" Morris was a little puzzled, thirty years ago he was still a young master in the capital, of course he hadn't heard of what happened in Mangala City thirty years ago.

"Xiao Lei, are you talking about the killer organization?" Flender's expression was a little heavy, thinking that it was not a good thing.

Fauber, who was standing at the bottom, raised his eyelids and sank again.

"Brother Reynoldold, what happened thirty years ago? Tell me about it, give me some clues. While I can still suppress the matter now, I can solve the case quickly, otherwise it will be difficult to clean up the end when rumors begin to appear in Mangala City and make people panic!" Morris hurriedly said, as the city lord, if this kind of thing occurs in his jurisdiction, the pressure on him is undoubtedly huge.

Reynold's expression was rare and serious, he took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and said slowly: "Thirty years ago, there was a gang that made waves in Mangala City. It's also only for warlocks, and the killing method is the same as you said, sucking up the essence of warlocks. To put it mildly, I was also killed by it, but fortunately, Arthur's grandfather and Fauber arrived in time to save my life. ”

Reynolds looked at Arthur beside him with a shocked face, and said with a wry smile, "I have a deep feeling for their modus operandi, they made a cut on my body at that time, pressed their hands on my wounds, and the magic circle lit up under my feet, I felt that the energy in my body was frantically pulled out and absorbed by them." Fortunately, it didn't take long for my father and Fauber to arrive in time, but it caused a lot of damage to my body, not only could the magic energy no longer gather, but even the miracle doctor Oliver asserted that it was difficult for me to have children."

"It's... Daddy, then I'll ......" Arthur couldn't help it, and just wanted to ask how he was born, but was interrupted by Daddy's wave of his hand, "Fortunately, I wasn't seriously injured at the time, and after taking a lot of precious medicines, I finally gave birth to Arthur worthy of the ancestors of my Snow family." To be honest, I was surprised by Arthur's situation three months ago, so I wasn't too surprised. ”

Immediately, Reynolds gritted his teeth and said: "There were five people in that murder gang back then, and I killed seven of my guards and servants and sucked them all dry, which seems to improve their skills."

"This—" Morris was shocked, he hadn't heard of a spell that could absorb other people's energy.

"Brother Morris, I believe they won't have just one person, they should also be a gang, judging by the number of people they killed, there should be three or four people. I suggest that it is best to ask the second-order warlocks in the city lord's mansion to investigate, those people were able to kill the elite warlocks that my father gave me, and my warlock guards are all the pinnacles of first-level warlocks, and they can even compete with a second-order warlock when they join forces."

"Back then, this murderous gang wiped out a small family in Mangala City, and the head of that small family was still a second-level warlock!"

"Second-level Warlock?!" Morris stood up suddenly, his eyes were fixed on Reynold, and his face was extremely serious, "Brother Reynold, you said that this murder gang may have second-level warlocks involved?"

"Alas...... If it were the previous incidents, I wouldn't dare to assert it, but the boss of the Wuqin car dealer and his son-in-law are really the pinnacle of first-class warlocks, oh, I remember that this son-in-law of his seems to have graduated from the advanced class of the academy of magic" Reynold's gaze shifted to Flender's face that slowly became serious. The graduates of the advanced class of magic are the dragons of individuals, first of all, they must be innate warlocks, and secondly, half a foot has already stepped into the realm of second-level warlocks, it can be said that as long as they meditate for a few years and accumulate enough energy, they can definitely break through the barriers of second-level warlocks in one fell swoop.

"Well, if you can kill the students of my academy's advanced class of magic, then these damn killers are definitely the pinnacle of the first level, and they may even be second-level warlocks" Flender rubbed his fingers, his face extremely ugly. They put too much effort into training a student in an advanced class as a teacher.

Morris's face was as black as charcoal, and his eyes showed a look of struggle. The hall was quiet for a while, and then Morris sighed and said weakly, "I'll go back to the City Lord's Mansion now to issue a notice, and the whole city will enter a state of first-level alert."

The second-level warlock committing a crime against the wind is already a very serious matter, the second-level warlock can exist as a principality, and some powerful second-level warlocks can even deter other countries, like Arthur's third uncle. As the protector of the principality, the third-level warlock will not take action easily, and the one who can intervene in the war is the second-level warlock!

"Another point is that the edict was issued to let those second-level warlocks in the city move around and walk around the villages and towns near Mangala City. This group of people obviously learned from the experience of thirty years ago, and did not dare to enter the city to publicize it. Flender thought for a moment and said. "I sent my teachers out, and I sent dozens of students with strong spells to form a team to guard the small village near Mangala City. ”

"Wouldn't it be too dangerous to send students over," Reynolds worried, "After all, if something happens to the students, the academy will have to pay a lot of responsibility." ”

"Isn't it just three or four killers, I arranged a team of eight people, each team has a student from the senior class to lead the team, stationed in various villages, so that it is not far from the teacher and the other teams, once something happens, we can immediately send a signal, we can also know the movement of the criminals in time. ”

"But...... Student's words, in terms of strength, ......" Morris hesitated.

"Do you have enough manpower? If it's enough, just assume that the old man didn't mention it" Flender saw that Morris questioned the students of his academy, and immediately scolded loudly, "Those students of mine, even if they are in the intermediate class, are not much different from the peak of ordinary warlocks in terms of combat power, eight first-level warlocks, one of them is still half a foot into the second-level warlock, even a second-level warlock can be beaten down, do you doubt the old man, my teaching ability is not good?"

"Don't dare, don't dare" Morris was covered in cold sweat, and Flender, who was furious, couldn't help but cry out to himself, turned his gaze to Reynolds, begging for God's help.

"Ahem, Uncle Flender, why don't you do this, the teachers and students of the academy are in charge of the west side of Mangala City, and the villages and towns on the west side are dense and not far apart. I'll contact other large families in Mangala City tomorrow, they are in charge of the south, and there are many officials in the south, and I believe that those families will not ignore it. In the other two directions, the worshippers and the army of your city lord's mansion are in charge, what do you think?"

"Yes," Flender regained his old wand-like smile, looking satisfied.

Morris thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

After discussing some details, the two of them had to say goodbye and leave. Before leaving, Flender still yelled at Arthur, "Boy, remember to come to class tomorrow, if you don't come to the old man to beat your ass"

Immediately, the old man laughed and turned around, leaving Arthur to cry without tears.
