Chapter 112: Defence

The warehouse area of Snow Dragon City is not in the city, but in the belly of the mountain in the north of the city. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThis was originally a huge natural cave, which was used as a temporary storage site for supplies during the construction of Snow Dragon City. Later, in order to save space in Snow Dragon City and save budget, it was simply transformed into the warehouse area of Snow Dragon City.

Although this natural cave was originally chosen as a warehouse to save money, after hundreds of years of transformation, reinforcement, and repair, the entire cave has long been turned into a large-scale, well-planned, and well-guarded professional warehouse. In particular, the arrangement of various magic circles is not only enough to resist powerful foreign enemies, but also can maintain the temperature and humidity in the warehouse all year round. Once a toxin is found in the food, it can directly send an alarm and relay the information to the mage tower in Snow Dragon City.

However, all these arrangements in the warehouse area seem to have lost their effect this time, and before the batch of grain brought by the royal capital was unsealed, there was no reaction to detect the toxin barrier. But when the logistics officer who came to collect the grain opened the warehouse, he found that all the grain, whether it was refined flour, or various coarse grains that had not been hulled, and even some of the dregs that were extremely resistant to storage, were covered with black mold. When the moldy food was removed and the toxin detection spell was used, all the food emitted a oozing black gas.

When Rasheng arrived at the warehouse area, Mage Baker was angrily reprimanding George, the head of the warehouse, and a group of trembling warehouse guards stood next to him.

As the person in charge of the warehouse, everyone knows what this batch of grain represents. Now that this kind of thing has happened, it not only means that the war situation may have a counter-war because of this, but also means that the personnel in charge of these warehouses are likely to be regarded as saboteurs and directly executed as scapegoats. In this case, no one will not be afraid.

Seeing Rason appear, but not seeing the figure of Baron Cook, a trace of surprise flashed in George's eyes, and then his expression became a little gloomy. Although he knew that Luo Sheng had recently become famous and in the limelight, he had created a great reputation on the front line of Zhixue Castle and established a very high prestige among the front-line soldiers. But for the logistics staff who have not seen the majesty of Rason with their own eyes, it is still Baron Cook, and Captain Kelly is more reassuring.

Especially now, the cause of grain mildew and poisoning has not been clarified, and the responsibility has not been clearly divided. In this case, if someone who has no qualifications and enough ability comes to contend with Master Baker, then the responsibility will almost certainly be pressed on the side of the warehouse guard. And if he really goes to that point, as the person in charge of the warehouse, although George is an old man of the Cook family and a master of the silver rank, it may be difficult for him to escape responsibility.

"Lord Rason, didn't he come over, Lord Baron?" Although he knew that there was little hope, because it was at stake in his life and death, George still asked with hope of what happened.

"I'm sorry, Uncle George, the barbarians are attacking the city, and Lord Baron can't get out for the time being, so I can only come over and check the situation first. Confirm the cause of grain mildew. After Luo Sheng gave George a reassuring look, he replied very calmly: "After all, such a large-scale grain mildew is not an easy thing, and there must be a problem in the middle." ”

Although he is not very familiar with George, Luo Sheng also knows that George can take care of the logistics warehouse in Xuelongguan, and he must be a close confidant of the Cook family, so such a person must be appeased and protected.

"Lord Luo Sheng, the matter of food is related to the life and death of Xuelong Pass. Since you are here on behalf of Baron Cook, then please investigate these guards strictly! Seeing Luo Sheng appear alone, a hint of surprise flashed in Master Baker's eyes, but he asked very solemnly.

In fact, for this hand played by the Bright Sect, Master Baker was also very troubled. After all, the Mage Tower is responsible for monitoring all the important places in the Snow Dragon Pass, and the warehouse is also a key monitoring area. Now that such a large basket has come out of the warehouse, as the person in charge of the mage tower, Mage Baker is also responsible.

But people are under the eaves and have to bow their heads. In the face of the powerful forces represented by the Holy See of Light, Mage Baker did not have much choice. Even though he knew that this might be a problem in the future, Baker had no choice but to bite the bullet.

Of course, as a semi-independent collaborator, Mage Baker didn't just do what he was told. In addition to the exoneration promises that General Barlow and Daniel have asked for, Mage Baker also tries to clear himself when it comes to the division of responsibility. After all, even if Baron Cook is finished, Elson will not fall completely, and in the future, he may still be held accountable for the defeat of this battle.

"Senior Baker is right, since I am here on behalf of Baron Cook, I naturally have to be responsible for what I say. However, when it comes to the question of responsibility, it is difficult to conclude at this time. It's not too late for me to talk about this question after I've finished reading the moldy grain and asking all aspects of the situation. It is not easy to draw conclusions without investigation, and it is not good to explain to the Baron. Luo Sheng responded lightly.

Although he knew that this was a foreshadowing carefully prepared by the Bright Sect, and there was little hope of recovering his losses, Luo Sheng was still very interested in the methods adopted by the Bright Sect. After all, even with the help of moles, it is not easy to mold and poison a large number of grains stored separately. The means of the Holy See of Light have been determined, and then it is good to deal with and prevent it.

"I'll have someone pick it up right away. Although he was a little disappointed that Baron Cook did not show up to support him, seeing Rason's statement, George had a glimmer of hope in his heart. Luo Sheng chose to defend Baker instead of echoing the other party, which shows that Baron Cook did not sacrifice himself to maintain the stability and unity of all parties in Xuelong Pass. This also means that there is still hope for me to get rid of responsibility.

As for whether Luo Sheng could compete with Master Baker, the giant of Snow Dragon Pass, George was not sure in his heart. Now George can only hope that his old fellows did not brag for Luo Sheng, the son-in-law of the Cook family, when chatting with him, as long as most of the miracles created by Luo Sheng before were true, he might not be charged with the felony of dereliction of duty.

After a while, George's subordinates put several bags containing all kinds of moldy grain in front of Luo Sheng. Luo Sheng took a step forward, grabbed a handful of rye and glanced at it, and after sniffing it again, he couldn't help frowning. After that, Luo Sheng checked all the bags again, and finally stood up and shook his head.

"Lord Rasen, do you see anything?" Seeing Rasheng get up, Mage Baker asked with a sneer.

Although he hated the way the Bright Sect played tricks, Master Baker still admired the other party's ability very much. You must know that this operation, the Holy See of Light did not let Master Baker assist too much, but only let people mix in the warehouse for a while, and as a result, all the contamination of the grain was completed overnight. This kind of means is absolutely not something that ordinary forces can do. Although Luo Sheng has recently become famous, Mage Baker does not think that the other party has the ability to find flaws.

"This is a mold that has been specially cultivated with magic, and its spore state cannot be detected by magic, but it can be activated using special magical rituals. Luo Sheng said with a solemn expression: "Theoretically, the warehouse belongs to the key monitoring area of the Mage Tower, and if a magic ceremony is held here, it will definitely be detected by the Mage Tower." Moreover, in the process of grain mildew, the detection of toxic enchantment should also have a reaction and sound an alarm. These things should be the responsibility of the Mage Tower, right?"

According to Lennon's intelligence, Baron Cook's side had already determined that Mage Baker had chosen to cooperate with the Holy See of Light and betrayed Snow Dragon Pass. Now from this incident, Roson can be more sure of Baker's position. After all, without the cooperation of him, the controller of the Mage Tower, no matter how high the means of the Bright Sect were, it would be impossible to completely contaminate the food silently. So in front of Baker, Luo Sheng didn't mean to be polite, and directly questioned it.

"Lord Rasen, what do you mean, do you suspect that I betrayed Elson?" Finding that Rasheng had basically deduced the methods of the Bright Sect in a moment, Mage Baker was slightly startled in his heart, but his face remained silent and asked coldly.

While speaking, Master Baker slammed his staff, and a huge amount of spiritual power was released, pressing on Luo Sheng's head, wanting to suppress Luo Sheng from the momentum.

"Senior Baker, don't be angry, it's not a question of doubt or not, it's an explanation that Your Excellency must make. The Mage Tower is responsible for monitoring the situation in all parts of Snow Dragon City, and the warehouse is an important place in the army, so it must be closely monitored. Now that all the food has been contaminated, but the Mage Tower has not called the police, is it possible that those magic monitoring circles in the warehouse are in vain?" Luo Sheng turned a blind eye to the pressure around him, and retorted without giving in.

Spiritual suppression is essentially a competition between the soul and spiritual power. Although Luo Sheng is still only at the bronze level, all his attributes have actually exceeded the bottom limit of the silver level. In particular, the most powerful perceptual attribute has reached thirty-one, far surpassing that of Mage Baker. Therefore, no matter how strong Master Baker's momentum is, it will not have the slightest impact on Luo Shengzao.

"These days, the battle on the front line is urgent, and most of the monitoring forces in the Mage Tower are on the front line, ready to support at any time. The warehouse is guarded, but of course it will not be the focus of supervision. Moreover, someone destroyed the monitoring circle and the toxin detection circle in the warehouse, blocking the Mage Tower's sense of here, so the Mage Tower did not raise the alarm. And the only ones who have the ability to blend into the warehouse and destroy the magic circle are the guards of the warehouse. Seeing that he couldn't suppress Luo Sheng, Mage Baker retracted his momentum, but still gritted his teeth and said. As he spoke, Mage Baker's staff lit up slightly, and a message passed out silently.

"Let's talk about this kind of thing after looking at the actual situation. Luo Sheng said lightly: "Please ask Senior Baker to accompany me inside to check the operation of the magic circle." ”

"Good!" After a slight hesitation, Mage Baker replied with a nod. (To be continued.) )
