Chapter 47: Alarm
The office of the Chief and Undersecretary must be larger than the other rooms.
The interior decoration style of Loren Magaga is that both the room and the office of the home like to fill the furniture and decorations, such as the four walls of this office, there are five portraits, two flags and a coat of arms shield. But Rao was like this, and Ao Zheng quickly found the locked-up rune cabinets mentioned by Di Er.
There are four cabinets in a row, each one long and wide, lined up on the wall, and the cabinets are all open doors with keyholes in the doors. To the touch, the whole cabinet is made of metal, and when you tap it twice, the sound is so thick that I am afraid that it will take two or three or four adult men to move a single cabinet.
"How do you open this kind of cabinet?" Ao Zongheng casually unblocked the first speaker.
"It's just opened with a key. ”
"Only the key?" Ao Zongheng frowned, he wanted to see the first expression, but in order to prevent the other party from seeing his face, he couldn't see the other party's face. "What's the use of that spell?"
"The incantation is used to protect the cabinet from being opened by any means other than a key. ”
"Do you know how to open these cabinets?"
"I'm just a little head of the house, do you think it's possible for me to open the chief minister's cabinet?" Terre really wanted the other party to see his wry smile, but he didn't even make a wry smile before he lost consciousness - since he couldn't help, Ao Zongheng let him sleep.
Ao Zongheng reached out and pulled the doorknob of the cabinet, sure enough, he couldn't pull it, he was lucky to try to pull it again, at this time, the spell worked, and his true qi was absorbed by a faint blue light as if it was in the underground treasury of Senubes.
Is this kind of energy-absorbing magic circle barrier again? It's not what it used to be, and Ao Zongheng now has the experience to deal with this kind of barrier. However, he didn't plan to smash the cabinet open here, after all, he was in the palace building of the Legal Management Department, and a group of leading mages and even robed mages were nearby, so it was better to leave as soon as possible.
What Ao Zongheng didn't know was that he was in a hurry, but there were people not far away who were more anxious than him.
Almost at the same time as he reached out to pull the doorknob, Chief Deputy Minister Guibent received an alarm of the fluctuation of the magic pattern, which did not belong to the function of the spell cabinet itself, but a small spell that he privately attached to the spell cabinet, when someone other than him touched the doorknob of the cabinet, as long as he was within a taekwon, he would receive an alarm signal, and the range of a taeklow was enough to cover the distance between his official residence and the office, which itself was used to guard against "people with intentions" Sneaking into his office and trying to open the Spell Cabinet is one of the means of safety.
The so-called "people with hearts" are, to put it bluntly, the people of Minister Yingting Mou. Chief and Deputy Minister Quibent's ambitions were known to almost anyone outside the Ministry of Justice, and he would not have thought that Minister Intingmu would be honestly beaten passively - such a person would not have been able to become a branch minister.
So as soon as he received the warning pattern, his first reaction was to look at Ying Tingmou, who was sitting on the main seat, with a face as good as an ancient well, did he use this meeting to arrange for someone to do it? But what did he want to take? There was nothing in those cabinets that was not good for him or himself? Could it be that he had recently shown some of his feet and thought that I had it in his hands?
It seemed to feel that Guibent was aiming at him, and Yingting Mou's slightly blank eyes also swept back, and the highly sensitive Guibent hurriedly returned to his previous expression in the moment before the eyes of the two sides met.
It's just that his heart can't be as calm as it was just now.
He couldn't point out that someone had snuck into my office and tried to steal it - it would inevitably expose his little spell on the spell cabinet, if it was just a warning spell, it was just one of the insurance methods, there were so many experts here that he could see the other small tricks on the spell cabinet at a glance. Once this matter is made public, then he will at least have a reputation of "polluting Qing Xiu with secular power", although this kind of thing is also a universal reality, but it can be done and cannot be said, and it will be even worse if it falls into the hands of the opponent, even if the one behind him is not easy to come forward to ease his cheeks.
It's not impossible to find an excuse to leave the venue, but now is the critical time to force the palace, once he leaves, I'm afraid that the rest of the people will not be able to withstand Ying Tingmu's words, this excellent cauldron can be stuffed out, how can he sit back and watch the burial.
Find a reliable subordinate to go to the office and have a look?Reliable subordinates do, the question is how to tell him, in front of a group of robed mages, the trick of the mage's inspiration call? Don't joke, even if others don't know what you say, they will definitely find out about this kind of secret communication, which will instead give Ying Tingmu a chance to use the question to unload.
Could it be that this is a move that Yingting Mou had laid out long ago before the meeting? Predicting that the situation is unfavorable, he will put me in a dilemma? Thinking of this, Guibent couldn't help but glance at Yingting Mou at the top again, but seeing that he still looked like an ancient well, he really couldn't grasp the other party's thoughts. No matter, there shouldn't be anything important in it anyway, and even if there is, it's not something that can be opened by just someone, Yingting Mou's trick is nothing more than trying to mess with my heart, and I don't miss it.
The corners of Guibent's mouth twitched slightly, and he glanced at Yingting Mu again with his residual vision. If you want to rely on yin tricks to avoid the pot? Sure enough, when you are old, I will let you talk for a while, and in the end, you will vote on the big deal, I don't believe that there are no people who can see the direction of the wind among those who stand in the middle.
The OCC is, of course, a hierarchical behemoth with a long history. But unlike those secular countries, the highest and oldest of the Primordial Ten Laws of the Legal Management Commission has a strong anti-authoritarian tendency. Even though after thousands of years, the erosion of secular power and scheming ideas has become more and more serious, but after all, it has not been able to get on the stage.
From the CMC to the CMD, a word is only allowed to appear in routine matters and judgments where there are enough common practices to follow. Other matters are decided mainly at the level of the head of the house and the deputy head of the house, the house, the director and the house, the deputy director, and the minister and the deputy minister. In the event of such a stagnant situation, the final way to stop the dispute is to vote - all the participants (those who take minutes are not needed) participate in the vote, and one vote at the ministerial level is equal to four votes, one vote at the level of room and director is equal to three votes, one vote at the level of room director is equal to two votes, and one vote is one vote for those below the level of room director. Moreover, when the vote is made, the person with the highest status on the scene does not participate in the vote in principle, the reason is to avoid the suspicion of leading the vote.
Because of this, Guibent was very confident in the vote, and Intinmu could not vote, and they had a deputy minister plus two rooms, and the director plus a Saradin, thirteen votes. I have two deputy ministers and two rooms and directors, just fourteen votes. Although there is only one more vote, he thinks that no one in the centrist will be willing to risk his own anger and the dissatisfaction of his own boss or even squeeze out the limelight.
Outside the legal department, there are still those waiting to be in the limelight.
Big Mouth and Big Eyes led people to guard the front and back of the Law Department, and the Law Department did not have a back door, but the mysterious mage could not walk out of the door so properly, so they scattered the people and surrounded them on all sides. In accordance with the brain's instructions, their encirclement left the perimeter of the courtyard wall of the Ministry of Legal Affairs.
The mages of the royal family's spell advisory group followed the big mouth and big eyes respectively, and the remaining two sides were handed over to the private mages of the mouthless, and this arrangement was also to try not to expose their own private soldiers. There were eighteen mages around, especially the side near the third wall, which was the closest direction to the royal capital and the most important place for them to set up defenses, where in addition to the four mages, there was also the only robed mage among the mouthless private soldiers.
"What? You can't take it? What's going on?"
Proud of his surprise, he had just tried to take away all the cabinets in the borrowing ring, and then took them out and slowly smashed them when he got somewhere else. Nazhi brushed it with one hand, and the incantations appeared on those boxes, but they remained in place, not included in the ring.
"Hmm, borrowing the magic ring with the storage method is just an ordinary space spell, many worlds have similar spells, since these spell cabinets have a protective effect, it is not strange that they can be immune to space storage spells", the ring spirit said slowly.
"Wouldn't all spells be ineffective against it?"
"How is it possible, a small protective spell is nothing more than a wide range of applicable laws, and the power is limited, if you use the borrowing ring to collect it, you will definitely be able to take it away", the ring spirit thought for a while and complained: "Actually, you are also stupid, you sit on top of these cabinets, and directly use the borrowing ring to teleport away, blink to the outside of the city, save more trouble." ”
"I always borrow the law and borrow the law, I told you that I hate borrowing things the most, and it is my own cultivation that cultivates, and it is not my own after all to use external objects", said arrogantly and solemnly.
"Okay, okay, you have to be strong, just you are arrogant, then you can figure it out yourself, hum!" said the ring spirit angrily.
The ring spirit was angry, and the arrogance had an idea.
Ao Zongheng first sealed the entire room with a sense of qi to prevent the sound from leaking out, and then luck lifted the two cabinets and slammed them into the other two. This is the way to be arrogant - anyway, if you take it out, you have to forcibly smash it, so why not just smash it and take it away?
According to his assumption, the energy-absorbing barrier on the incantation cabinet was very powerful for pure energy, but it should be useless to deal with the actual impact.
Sure enough, the first collision, the thick cabinet door made a huge muffled sound, the cabinet door was obviously loosened in the collision of potential energy of its own weight and thousands of catties, the second impact, the cabinet door began to deform, the third impact, the cabinet door has been completely broken.
However, with the sound of metal striking, several dazzling rays of light burst out of the broken cabinet doors, enveloping the room with absolute lightning speed.
