Chapter Twenty-Four: The Lie Detector Gem

"Hey, old dog, have you heard, tonight I heard that a lot of fire wolves died outside the town, not a thousand but eight hundred, and I watched as those migrant workers moved those huge fire wolf corpses into it one by one. ”

"Your news has long been outdated, let me tell you, in fact, it was a Warcraft King in the Warcraft Forest who drove this beast tide in order to take revenge on humans. ”

"What? Warcraft King? This kind of thing hasn't been seen in years!"

"Hehe, don't listen to his nonsense, let me tell you, in fact, it was a group of men in black who planned this beast tide, and behind this group of men in black was the Ottoman Empire!"

.......

Brian sat in the corner of the tavern, sipping sip of wheat wine, and all kinds of speculations were endless, although many people guessed some of the facts, but more of them were some nonsense such as what kind of evil dragon turned into a princess.

Of course, Brian wasn't entirely unrewarded, at least these people reminded him of something else.

Why those fire wolves would be at the mercy of the people of the Dark One Association, if it was one or two wolves, it would be explained, but in the previous situation, there were definitely dozens of wolves who would command so many fire wolves, otherwise it would be impossible to put the entire Fire Wolf Town under so much pressure.

Don't think that these wolves will only be the strength of high-level star mages, and they will be slaughtered by people, the wisdom of this kind of demonic beast is not low, and the population consciousness is extremely strong, dozens of wolves will be this number, unless it is granted by the wolf king......

Wait, Warcraft King, Wolf King?

Brian seemed to have a flash of lightning in his mind, but it was gone in a blink of an eye, so why couldn't he catch it?

Damn, what the hell did I just think of?

Brian kept tapping his head with his hand.

"You look distressed? Brian?"

Just then, a voice sounded above Brian's head, and then a blonde young man sat down beside him.

"Why are you here?" Leo in front of him is the same as Lance, he is also a student of the First Branch, but compared to Lance, Leo is much more low-key.

If you want to talk about Brian and Leo's acquaintance, it's a bit illusory to say it, Brian met Leo through an interview for a job, and at that time, Leo was Brian's interviewer and employer.

However, the interview for that job was strange, because Leo asked a lot of questions about magic and math in the interview, and he also had a time limit to answer.

Although Leo's request was strange, Brian at that time still quickly completed many of Leo's problems for the sake of salary. He remembered that Leo was very surprised at that time, and he watched it several times before he was convinced that Brian was not bored.

It's a pity that Brian fell to the level that Leo thought was the most impossible to pass - mental strength.

So Brian's high-paying job naturally fell through.

But I didn't expect to meet each other again here.

"Like you, get intel. Leo didn't call for wine, much to the displeasure of the hostess who at first thought she had bumped into a gold owner.

"The result?" asked Brian casually.

"The harvest was not bad. Leo smiled.

"Oh?"

"Would you like to come with me? Speaking of which, this matter has something to do with you. ”

"Something to do with me?" Brian said with interest, "Go now?"

Leo shrugged, got up, put down a gold coin, and walked out of the tavern.

Brian looked at the gold coins on the table, and for a moment wanted to exchange the silver coins on his body, but finally sighed and followed Leo out of the tavern - it seemed that the other party had calculated that he would go.

......

What Brian didn't notice was that in the other corner of the tavern, there was a pair of eyes staring at Brian at this time.

This person is none other than Andre the 'Black Bear' who had a previous conflict with Brian.

"Cousin, what did you call me for?" At this time, there was also a burly student sitting next to Andre, if there were students from the Third Branch, they would recognize that this person was the famous third-year student of the Third Branch, 'Stegosaurus' Locke.

"Cousin, is it true that you said that the students selected by the trainees after the training will directly affect the students' standings?"

"How could I joke with you about this kind of thing. Locke said: "I remember that you are not on the left-behind list, why do you still look like you have lost your soul?"

"Alas, cousin, you don't know, if that's the case, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult for me to get into the top fifty!" said Andrei, smashing the big wooden wine glass with resentment:

"That Brian, he actually stayed! And according to other teachings, the clues he provided this time and the credit for resisting the wolf tide will be directly divided into his points!"

"The Empty Shell Mage?" said Locke, frowning.

"He's not a shell mage now!, this guy doesn't know what shit luck he had, and he's actually healed if he's mentally weak!"

"Is it okay to be mentally weak?" Locke also exclaimed. There is no precedent for mental weakness to recover, but this probability can be said to be one in a million, why did Lady Luck favor Brian.

"Well, now the teachers say that Brian seems to have been reborn as a different person. Andre drank the stuffy wine from the wine glass and said depressedly.

"Reborn, like another person?" Locke heard this, a wit, and suddenly remembered some of the words he had heard from his father earlier.

The Temple of Sacrifice is looking for some 'weirdos', and the most important characteristic of these weirdos seems to be that their behavior has suddenly become abnormal.

Moreover, the Temple of Sacrifice also gave a huge list of people with no regularity, men and women, blacksmiths, and wanderers....... But Locke remembered that there seemed to be Brian's name in the list!

"I said, cousin, I have a way that may help you get rid of this problem once and for all. Locke remembered the rich bounty offered by the Temple of the Holy Sacrifice, and his heart was moved.

"Completely get rid of Brian?!" Andre was shocked when he heard Locke's words, woke up instantly, glanced around, made a gesture with his hand on his neck, and said, "Cousin, do you want it?"

"Hey, that's too risky. Locke Yin shook his head, then took out a pale red gem from his arms, which was about the size of a little thumbnail, and smiled:

"I wonder if you've ever heard of 'Lie Detector Gems'?"

"Lie detector gem?" When Andre heard Locke's words, he suddenly said listlessly again like a deflated ball: "What's the use of this kind of thing?"

Lie detector gemstones, as the name suggests, are able to detect whether the person is lying.

It's just that this kind of gem that sounds like a powerful gem has many drawbacks.

First of all, putting aside the objective factors of low output and high development cost, it also has too many limitations in terms of use. The first is that it can only be used by a stellar mage under the age of 20, the second is that it can only detect 'yes or no' lies, and the third is that it can only be effective if he comes into contact with the person being tested.

These three alone have turned this gem into a kind of chicken rib in an instant, and perhaps only noble ladies and ladies would use this expensive gem to regulate their boring lives.

This is also why Andre looked disappointed when he saw Locke take out this kind of thing, the polygraph gem can only disgust Brian at most, what practical effect can it have?

"Hey, hey, this kind of thing is perfect for him!" Locke smirked, then leaned into Andrei's ear and said something quickly.

The waitress on the side saw two men whispering in the corner of the tavern, and then occasionally let out a strange laugh, and couldn't help but feel a sense of horror, and hurried away.
