By the time Lilith arrived at the target, the courtyard was already on fire. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The fire at the scene was very large, but the person who set the fire didn't seem to want to hurt the people nearby, and left a transparent barrier outside the door before leaving, and the flames couldn't pass through the magic barrier, so although the smoke was billowing in the small courtyard, the two houses next to it were unharmed, including the museum that was only separated by a wall from the small courtyard, but it scared the nearby residents into a cold sweat, and two thinly clothed guys rushed out of the house with only a sheet wrapped in a sheet, and were shivering in the cold wind at the moment。

In addition, most of the people were busy collecting everything that could hold water at hand, scooping pots and spoons from the nearby well, but compared to the fierce fire, this amount of water did not play any role at all, Lilith couldn't help frowning when she saw this scene in front of her, showing her identity as the vice president of the Gudris branch of the Magician Guild, telling the people around her to retreat, and then she raised her staff and began to chant.

After a while, everyone saw a small dark cloud slowly drifting from the sky, enveloping the burning courtyard, and it didn't take long for the raindrops to fall from the air, from the first dripping to the later pour, the two guys in bed sheets shivered, and hurriedly ran into the bookstore next door to hide from the rain.

The rain is getting heavier and heavier, but the strange thing is that this rain is always confined to the nearby half of the street, and half of the street is business as usual, and passers-by are amazed, is this the power of magic? Although Gudris is known as the city of mages, and you can always meet magicians with pointed hats on the streets, they rarely use magic in the city, so scenes like this are actually rare.

After a while, the guards also arrived here, and the leader of the team was Thomas, who greeted the female magician and said, "President Lilith is also here, was there a magician fighting here in the previous movement? ”

Lilith nodded, "About half an hour ago, someone used forbidden magic in Gudris to open the gates of hell here, and there seem to be people behind them who released fire totems and sword storm storms, both of which are fifth-order magic, as for whether there are casualties, it's still unclear, I'm planning to go in and take a look." ”

"Eh, now?" Thomas was stunned, although the fire had gradually subsided, it had not been completely extinguished, and there were still many places burning, and it was obviously impossible to enter.

As a result, the next moment he saw the sorceress manipulate the rain around him to make a cloak for herself, put it on her body, and strode into the fire.

After about ten minutes passed, Lilith came out of the fire, her expression was rare with a hint of solemnity, there was a floating pocket behind her, and the female magician was the first to speak after seeing Thomas, "There are three human corpses in the courtyard, two men and one woman, including a thief and a swordsman, and the woman is a magician, but their corpses are all badly damaged, and it is basically difficult to get any other information after burning for so long," Lilith paused and continued, " There may have been another victim, and I found a lot of blood in the well as well. ”

Thomas thanked him, then gestured to the pocket behind her, "President Lilith, what's in there?"

"The corpse of a monster. The sorceress said lightly.

Thomas raised his eyebrows, a little surprised, "Monsters, like ghouls? Gudries would have such a thing?"

Lilith shook her head, "I don't know, I need to bring this thing's corpse back and study it." ”

Thomas was a little embarrassed, "President Lilith, since there is a murder, according to Guderis's law, all evidence must be kept here by our guard before a new order is issued by the council, you see this ......"

The sorceress thought for a moment, "And I want an arm?"

Thomas smiled bitterly, this request is undoubtedly not very reasonable, but the other party, as the vice president of the Guderies branch of the Wizards Association, is the nominal manager of all the magicians in the university town of Guderis, and there are magicians among the victims this time, so the Magicians Association also has the first investigative power, and Lilith herself is also a member of the city council, although this request is suspected of violating the rules, but it is not too much, so the captain of Guderis's second guard team finally agreed.

The sorceress did not want to waste any time, and said to Thomas, "Lend me your sword." ”

Thomas hurriedly said, "No, no, no, how dare you do this kind of thing, President Laullith will do it yourself, it just so happens that I still have some questions I want to ask you." He glanced at his two men, who stepped forward to take the sack and find a place to unload their arms.

The captain of the guard knew that the female magician in front of him was a resolute person, so he didn't talk nonsense and went straight to the point, "President Lilith, I don't know if there are any clues about the origin of these people, and I won't tell you that I often patrol around here, so I'm quite familiar with this place." ”

Thomas pointed to the small courtyard in the fire, "The owner of this house is a guy named Marcus, but that guy seems to run an inn on the dwarven side, and he is away all the year round, so this house is basically vacant all the time, I also asked the residents in the neighborhood just now, and they all said that they have never seen anyone enter or leave this small house before......"

A wry smile appeared on the captain's face, "If these four people are residents of Guderis, it's okay to say, as long as we put a little more effort into determining their identities, but I'm afraid that they are outsiders and have not been registered with the city hall, so we can't find out their presence even if we want to......"

"I'm sorry, but I don't know where this guy is. Lilith said, "But it involves a battle between magicians, and the guild will definitely pay close attention." ”

Thomas grasped the point of the sorceress's words, "The battle between the mages, do you mean that these four men were not killed by that monster?"

Lilith patiently explained, "The female corpse has a very serious penetrating wound on her chest, and her heart is missing, it looks like it should be the killer under that monster, but the other two corpses don't have similar injuries, I am more inclined to think that they were killed by humans, and the monster, if it killed four people, then who cut off its head in the end?"

Thomas looked confused, "You mean that this monster killed the magician first, and then someone showed up to kill the monster, but also killed several other people......? Is it good or bad?"

"We, the Wizards' Guild, will work with your guards to figure this out. The final answer of the witch was very official, but she also reminded the captain of the guard before leaving, "No matter what the identity of this group of people is, one thing is certain, that is, they are all masters, so the people who can kill them must also be masters, not you ordinary guards can deal with it, if I were you, I would report it to the council immediately, and ask the special investigation team to take over this case as soon as possible." ”

After speaking, Lilith was about to turn around and leave, and Thomas hurriedly threw out his last question, "Then do you think this case has anything to do with the evil ** cases that happened in the south of the city some time ago?"

"Chengnan?" Lilith stopped.

"Just about two weeks ago, the guard received a report from a dozen citizens that they had been attacked by unknown people the night before, but fortunately they were all safe and sound, and according to them, the people who attacked them were all dead, you must have heard about this before. ”

"Well, so what happened to this?" The sorceress did remember the news that had been very popular in Guderies not long ago, and many people used it to criticize the deterioration of law and order in the university town, the lack of responsiveness of the guards, and the pressure of the council during that time.

Thomas sighed, "No, we couldn't find the bodies of those attackers, we just speculated that the only thing they had in common might have something to do with Master Gagarin, but then I took someone to the guy's residence and found that it was empty, and what I'm most worried about now is that some cultists of the evil gods will find him and force him to repair some evil magicians." ”

"I remember you shared your concerns with the council, but because you couldn't produce enough evidence to prove your idea, the council eventually rejected your proposal to arrest Gagarin for the whole city. "I also voted against it at the time, I will not agree to put a magician on the wanted list when there is no reason to be sure that his actions will threaten the lives of others, even if your intentions are good in order to find him as soon as possible and ensure his safety, but it is a matter of honor and dignity for all magicians, and I hope Captain Thomas will understand my decision." ”

"Of course, of course, I didn't mean anything else. Thomas thanked Lilith, who didn't have to explain so much to him, but the sorceress was meticulous in explaining the reasons to avoid misunderstandings, and in this respect the vice-president was as unsmiling and surprisingly approachable as the rumors.

"As for whether there is any connection between these two events...... Lilith thought for a moment, "I don't know, I can only say that tonight's incident should have nothing to do with the evil gods." ”

The last sentence of the female president was somewhat meaningful, but she did not mean to explain further, and after saying that, she left the street with the monster arm that the captain of the guard had promised her, and it was not until she was far away that she made sure that there was no one else around, and the female president withdrew the invisibility magic she had released earlier.

The next moment, a lame old man appeared behind her with a sleeping earth dog.
