Chapter 20 - Doubts

The 10th day of the month of the god of nature, before noon.

County of Senubes, on the outskirts of Sealand City.

Turning over another hillside, the minaret of Lindenbo Castle seemed to be much closer.

On both sides of the road are large golden fields, this year's weather and moisture are quite good, even the harvest season has just begun, many fields are already lined up for harvesting, almost every field can see farmers harvesting, during this most exciting time of the year, it seems that even the air scorched by the three suns is not so sultry.

However, if you pay a little attention, you can see that there is not much joy on the faces of those busy farmers - two days ago, the county has announced everywhere that a temporary special tax of 10% of the harvest will be imposed this year.

Of course, the priests of Yan Du Pu would not have noticed this, these secular affairs, the officials of the legal system did not worry much about them, let alone the mages in the professional department like them, it would be even more distant. It's not that the commissioners don't have to eat, as mentioned earlier, the Ministry of Legal Affairs has a large number of fragmentary autonomous territories, and the food and use basically come from there, but the commissioners only receive money and grain according to the quota, and have no actual fiefdom, let alone participate in production and operation.

He received an invitation for help from his old friend Rui Ke Dada five days ago. The two were contemporaries of the Kunshike Spell Academy, and they were both top students at that time when they were in school, and they competed with each other, although they later chose different paths, and their relationship was better than before.

In order to find out the murderer who killed the five royal mages, Nie Ertu owed five standard magic crystals on credit to the legal management department, and tried several methods, but finally got the closest information about the murderer - this is an item that does not belong to this world, which cannot be described and is difficult to present. After getting this news, Nie Ertu almost didn't vomit blood, and five standard law essence stones got this kind of information? It would be strange if he didn't eat the head of the row this time, so he pestered Yan Dupu to ask for a discount, and Yan Dupu, a scholar-type person, was also a little uncomfortable with this result, and finally agreed to accept only three standard law crystals, and the remaining two were converted into Luo Lun shield.

Because Ruike Dada demanded that all royal and vassal forces must be concealed from this matter, Yan Dupu of course did not tell Nie Ertu, and directly brought some men and horses to Senubas.

On the southwest avenue of Lindenbo Castle, at the small kaiseki station, Master Ruike Dada is the eldest son of Master Ruike Dada and Senu Beisi, and Senu Sumire is waiting here for Yan Dupu and his party.

According to the aristocratic etiquette system of the Loren Magaga Kingdom, the servants have the responsibility of defending the border, so even if they are both county magistrates, there is no difference in power, and they are also half a level higher than the inland county magistrates in terms of nobility, and they can divide the highest level of nobles by themselves, and they are all second lords. The only difference is that their heirs are also the first heirs of the Dujue is also the second lord, and the first heir of the Duke is the second lord, which is a legal honor, and because there is only one second lord at most, the eldest son of the lord is born above all the second lords, at least the second person in name.

The second person naturally has a corresponding line of travel, and the twenty horsemen behind the second horseman are his own horsemen, plus the twenty horsemen sent to him by the second horseman, these people alone occupy half of the small Huaishi inspection station, and even the stationmaster of the inspection station is crowded far away.

"Coming, coming, there is a group of people in front, and there are a few heads. The station guard who was standing on the tower on the second floor shouted excitedly.

In the Tambro Continent, there are many animals that ride on their feet, and horses are very popular with nobles because they are fast and elegant and relatively rare, and there is also a market among mages, but if you want to really reflect the identity of a mage, you have to count them.

Only the commissioning mage can ride the horse, and the secular mage can ride the horse, and the person who loses the law can be punished. Why do you say that non-master riding is considered a defeater? You don't have a spell with you, but you have the ability to ride for me?

They are not the indigenous creatures on the continent of Tambro, they were introduced with the establishment of the legal departments of various countries, the ducks have four legs and hooves, the female has two horns, and the male has a horn, both male and female, they are all outside and inside, and the adult is larger than the horse, but the strength is several times that of the horse. Even if ordinary people have great strength, they can't obey it if they ride it, and if they don't pay attention to it, they will be thrown away by it, and they will be kicked to death by it in mid-air, or stuck in a corner. The reason why mages can use them as mounts is because they have a natural ability to digest and absorb spell energy, and use spell energy as the best food. And the reason why mages like them is not only that this guy is big and powerful, but also has a special ability, after absorbing spell energy for many years, the physical signs will change accordingly, and they communicate with the master's mind, so each mage's vision is unique.

Senubus is both remote and war-free, and there are not many opportunities to see a single rider throughout the year, and there are a few people in the team who come to see it, and who else can there be except Yan Du Pu Fashi.

The team approached, and sure enough, it was Yan Dupu, everyone greeted each other, and saw that the second man personally greeted him, and Yan Dupu also felt a little more faced, and his smile was a little more, after all, with his identity as a head of the house, the second man waited until he arrived at the gate of the castle to come out to greet him, which was already polite.

Although they were surrounded by guards and subordinates, Senu Sumire and Rui Ke Dada waited until they entered the central fort of Lindenbo before they began to get down to business.

In the conference hall, Senubus sat upright and listened to Ruike Dada introduce the situation of the night to Yan Dupu. It was the second time that the second lady was responsible for tracking down the lost money, but it was impossible for Lord Yi to sit idly by, and since someone from the legal management department could come to help, of course he didn't mind participating in the entry. Yan Dupu saw that Lord Yi was also present in person, and naturally felt that he had gained a lot of face this time, who said that professionals don't pay attention to face? Knowledge needs to be respected, understand?

Ruike Dada's introduction was not too long, because his knowledge was really limited, and Yan Dupu answered very simply.

"Then use the reproduction scene to reproduce the magic circle, I just used it a few days ago, is there a magic crystal on the honor?" I have to say that the people in the professional department are quite honest and say whatever they want.

Fa Jingshi said that the money vault is the old bottom of the old man, yes, but who doesn't have a few change in their pockets? But what is the matter with "I just used it a few days ago"?

So Yan Dupu told him about helping the royal family track down the disappearance of the mage, and the royal family didn't ask us to keep it secret anyway.

Of course, Senubes knew about the royal family's pursuit of the remnants of the Maharaja Perelodo, and he himself cooperated, but he had no interest in these royal family fights, what he cared about was - could this mysterious murderer have something to do with the theft of my treasury?

For the use of the scene to recreate the circle this time, Master Yan Du Pu is very confident, because the location to be reproduced this time is clear, and it is not particularly large. And there are a lot of clues left at the scene, all kinds of wood residue, gravel, and armor-breaking pieces are still in the treasury.

However, although everyone is anxious to see the results, it still takes a day to cast the spell - this time the coverage of the magic circle is particularly large, and the energy consumption of the mage is very large.

The next day, the group came to the underground treasury, last night his subordinates had already set up the formation in advance, and the guards guarded it all night, waiting for Yan Dupu to preside over the formation.

Yan Dupu still took out the Jilan wood twisted staff, put on the magic crystal prepared by Lord Yi, and began to recite the incantation.

Soon, the circles began to glow with cyan light, and after a while, the wood and gravel in the circle disappeared and turned back into large wooden boxes.

It was the first time that the father and son of Senubas had seen this kind of magic circle, and when they saw those who had accumulated wealth over the years, they couldn't help but let out a low cry, but fortunately, Ruike Dada was calmer and quickly stopped them.

I saw that in the magic circle, the unknown man took away the money and goods, destroyed the giant armor guard, and then used the slag ball to smash the barrier of the energy transfer circle one by one, and more than a dozen people on the scene were silent—everyone was completely shocked.

If it is said that taking away money and things can still be understood by the mages, the ability to easily blow up the three giant armor guards without moving their bodies is simply incredible, you must know that the armor on these giant armor guards is made of a special alloy of anti-spell energy, and a big fireball of a fire leader mage may not be able to blow them down, let alone fall apart. In addition, this person was constantly talking, but it was obvious that he was not chanting a spell, this person didn't look very old, and he was actually an Italian mage?

"This person could really be a demigod. Almost everyone present had such an idea in their minds.

"Master Yan Du Pu, is there any way to hear what he is saying?" Senubus was the first to come back to his senses and ask.

"There's no way, this is the scene reappearance circle, you can only see the scene. Yan Dupu replied quickly.

"Isn't there a circle where you can hear the voice?" thought Lady Li, perhaps hearing what he was saying would make it clear who he was as soon as possible.

"As far as I know, none of the legal branches have mastered this kind of magic circle, maybe the legal management committee has a way. ”

Senubus was speechless, what else could he say? Ask for help from the Legal Management Commission? Dream, I'm afraid I won't be able to look down on them if I give them all my wealth.

"In my opinion, isn't it also important to find out who he's talking to?" a voice suddenly remembered, coming from the legal management department personnel brought by Yan Dupu.

"May I ask who are you?" asked with a frown, didn't the people from your family's legal management department teach you the rules, I will talk to your boss, when will it be your turn to interject? Of course, he can't say this on this occasion, but his face is enough to reflect his dissatisfaction.

"I, my name is Germe Saradin." The man answered.
