Chapter 153: Number Four
The circle of energy ended under the gaze, and a strong woman landed on the ground, her image would undoubtedly be impressive, with wavy brown curls in a shawl, an angular square face, high brow bones, a firm nose, thick lips, oblique cross leather breastplate revealing bronze muscles, silk-like mage robes, two fleece leggings, and in addition to the double-headed sword that glowed in the candlelight, a weapon that Tarrant could not imagine, nearly a man's height, with a thick blade, this weapon was almost a combination of two two-handed greatswordsγ
"Good evening sir", the woman knelt on one knee and saluted, her voice loud.
"Shar Shrevan," Nicole held her hand and motioned for her to get up, "Have there been any strange magic fluctuations in the city lately?"
Sharsh Levin slowly stood up, the corner of his eye sweeping over everyone present, "No, sir. β
Her eyes were fierce and arrogant, full of the strength and blood of a warrior, and Tarrant took a step closer to Katrina, and the range of the double-headed sword would be amazing.
"Truth be told, everyone here is loyal to the king," Nicole looked up at her, the difference in height between the two was a big difference.
Shar Shlevin turned to stare at Malken, "There were magic fluctuations in the underground of Hongdu last night. β
"Handled?" asked Nicole.
"The Emblem team has gone to check, it's a lich sacrifice ritual", said the report after a pause, "The wizard is dead, the ritual has been suspended, and the guards have brought back his head and diary. β
"Anything else?"
"No, sir. β
"Is there any abnormality in the subject of long-term monitoring?"
"Nope. Sir. β
Nicole nodded slightly, "You're doing a great job." Let me give you a formal introduction to these three investigators of the Light of Sanctuary. β
Sharsh Levan didn't turn his head, complete contempt.
Tarrant guessed that the mage belonged to the outer tribes of Imbasin, and that her appearance and dress were clearly different from those of the Serensians, and that he seemed to have seen her somewhere, and that her back gave people an inexplicable sense of security.
"You must wonder why they are here, we have a little trouble". Nicole looked sideways at Tarrant. "A traitor has appeared within the Royal Guard, and she is trying to offend the glory of Siant. β
"I'll destroy her, sir!" Shalshlevin fell to his knees again, his double-headed sword standing firm.
"According to the available clues, this person also joined the Ancient Wizarding Society. β
There was no answer.
"Have you heard the name Crystal Heart?"
The male lion bowed his head. "Yes. A female mage who likes to hide her body odor with perfume. Erudite and thoughtful. β
"Oh?" Nicole asked, "do you know her identity?"
The male lion did not answer immediately but was silent for a moment, "Not sure yet." β
"There aren't many people who qualify. The Light of Sanctuary has confirmed that the Crystal Heart is from the Royal Guard, a gifted mage, and a woman, so that we can easily find her. β
"No," Shar Shlevin calmly denied.
"Lay down your arms", Nicole suddenly hardened, "your loyalty will be duly recognized." β
Shar Shlevin lowered her head, curly hair obscuring her gaze, even kneeling her figure was far more formidable than Nicole, she was a lion who could open his claws at any moment.
Melken moved to Nicole's side, "The Royal Guard will ensure the honor of every member of the team, lay down their arms, and respect themselves." β
"Are these people accusing me?" Shar Shlevin turned to look at the three Tarrants, and Kira Veton fired back with the same disdain.
"No one charges you," Malken clenched the hilt of his sword, "it is the duty of all of us to eliminate the threat, including you." β
"My devotion is a testament to my loyalty to the Empire. β
Tarrant stared at the leather armor on her back, he must have seen it somewhere, this kind of dress was so special, even more naked than Kira Vidon, he flashed a picture, "Have you been to Wilsing?"
The two commanders of the guard looked at him, but Sharsh Levin did not answer.
"What's the problem?" said Malken, puzzled.
"There was a pirate attack in the port of Wilsing, and they plundered a lot of zircon, and I rushed onto one of the pirate ships, and I seem to have seen ...... there" Tarrant couldn't be sure.
"Lynn's transport?" Nicole recalled, "the timing coincides." β
"She's with pirates?" said Malken, looking disappointed, "Shame on the Guards." β
"No, no," Tarrant hastily explained, "she fought the pirates very bravely, and all the pirate ships were sunk. β
"You didn't report this", Nicole's expression showed that she didn't care about it.
Shar Shlevin did not respond.
"It was a dangerous situation, and she bought time for Wilsing," Tarrant had no intention of praising "at least then she was a hero." β
Nicole said: "Shar Shlevin has made contributions, some of which are quite remarkable, but that doesn't mean that he can do something to harm Selenso, and lay down his arms and be investigated. β
Shar Shrevan clenched his double-headed sword and raised his head, "The person you are looking for should not be me. β
"What do you mean?" the sentence was like an accusation, and Nicole accentuated it.
"The Royal Guard gifted mage who joined the Wizarding Society, there is someone more suitable than me, I know who it is, sir", Shalshlevin's gaze met with that of the chief, "you are looking for a fourth person." β
Nicole's eyes were fixed on Sal Shrevan's mouth, and she said word by word: "Four, four, one?"
"Someone has secretly joined the Nagu Wizarding Guild in violation of the royal guard ban, without approval, she likes the Wizarding Guild. β
"Have you seen a fourth man?" asked Nicole.
"I've always doubted her identity, since the first time she appeared in the Wizards' Guild, her conversation and etiquette proved that she was a nobleman, and the smell of her body ......" Shar Shlevin stood up and looked down at the two chiefs in front of her, "the scent of hard pink flowers that can only be found in the palace of Sant. β
"You're making up a person who doesn't have zΓ i", Nicole bluntly rejects this possibility.
"No, Crystal Heart, the name has reminded me that she has a crystal ball. β
"Who is she?" Nicole clenched her left hand into a fist.
"A man who comes and goes freely with teleportation. β
"Teleportation is forbidden in the palace", Malken turned to Nicole, "That's your area, who can use teleportation in the palace?"
Nicole didn't answer, "How did you track her?"
"The smell of space spells," Sharsh Levin sniffed, "I'm sure she's back inside the palace." β
"Who is she!" Nicole asked again.
"She used perfume to hide her original scent, a variety of mixed perfumes, normal women don't do that at all", Shar Schlaven frowned, "There is only one possibility, she knows my sting, she is afraid of my sense of smell." β
"Another fan," Melken thought, "living in the palace district, knowing that Shalshlevin is in the Wizards' Guild and can freely use teleportation without being detected by Nicole's magic", he suddenly realized what he was saying, "This can't be!" (To be continued......
