Chapter 784: When the Storm is Coming
It is very likely that the gem that Arin wanted was in the hands of this prisonerββ
In the Chamber of Commerce, Lelouch sat on his chair and pondered, judging from the information he had obtained since he came to the Free City, the gem was most likely in the hands of this prisoner, and now that the city security team had found the other party's hideout, they should take the gem first.
But the situation that the investigator Lagervin considered was also considered by Lelouch, how to prevent the other party from using the power of the gem to escape again, the power that could not be perceived, detected, and guarded against was really too tricky, once the other party used the gem to hide his body, his own side was equivalent to no means to prevent the other party from leaving.
Use the Crystal Dragon's spatial talent to trap the opponent!
But Buyani also said frankly that the other party's ability to completely avoid the dragon inscription circle and enter the chamber of commerce is obviously not just a matter of hiding the body, it should be more like some kind of power that has infiltrated another plane, allowing it to walk in the gap between the present world and the imaginary plane. And more importantly, even if it is using divine magic to infiltrate another plane, it should be detected in the dragon grammar array, even if it cannot be stopped, but the dragon inscription array did not have any relevant records on the night of the accident, indicating that the power used by the other party is beyond the scope of divine magic in some aspects.
For this new and unknown power, Buyani really can't guarantee that she can trap the other party with her spatial talent.
I have enough people to arrest here!
Lelouch couldn't help but glance at the room from afar, whether it was himself as a black dragon or a crystal dragon Buyani, the powerful Sephiroth and the Lord of the Yin Stream hidden in the shadows were both powerful warriors, but this time the blade was sharp enough, but it was impossible to visually see the object that should be slashed, even if he held the sharp sword in his hand, it was meaningless if he couldn't see the enemy!
"I need more information. Buyani, will you be able to see through the illusion?"
"All magic is immune to me, but it can only take effect if it comes into contact with me, if it is an illusion magic arranged at a distance, I may not be able to see through itββ" said this, Buyani was slightly stunned, and then stretched out her finger and said affirmatively: "βBut I can completely perceive the magic flow of the illusion circle, and as a crystal dragon, I am the most sensitive to any magic fluctuations." β
Lelouch nodded and then quickly summoned Zai: "Zai~ Go to the municipal bureau to get a drawing about the underground waterway, I want the most detailed drawings." β
A gloomy voice flashed. The figure of the Lord of the Yin Currents flashed through the window like a black mist, disappearing into the setting sun.
An hour laterββ
He easily took out a map of the city's waterway layout from the municipal bureau that would not have been revealed, and by the way, he also took a set of old waterway maps before the renovation and handed them back to Lelouch. After spreading out the two drawings, Lelouch took out the map of the lower area and overlapped it with the waterway map, and looked at the intricate waterway map, Lelouch quickly began to empathize with his own position, thinking about what he would do if he was the other party.
Thinking of the possible age of the prisoner, the possible purpose, the way of going in and out, and the way of action were all deduced by Lelouch in his mind, and then simulated these ways to calculate the next step of the other party. Thousands of possibilities flashed through his mind, and the powerful spiritual power brought by the dragonization made Lelouch's mind quickly analyze these complicated data like a supercomputer that told it to run, and selected the most probable.
"Do you have any idea of a solution?, Lord Lelouch!" asked Buyani, who was waiting on the sidelines, in a whisper.
These days of getting along made it clear to Buyani that whenever Lelouch showed such an indulgent look, it meant that he must have thought of a way. It's just that this time the opponent she faced was tricky even for Buyani, an enemy who could hide at will, and in the lower urban areas with complex terrain and large populations, it was simply impossible to catch the opponent.
"Be quiet~ little girl!"
Sephiroth's magnetic voice rang in Buyani's ears. The Crystal Dragon Girl glanced at the other and shrugged her shoulders and said no more. Ignoring Buyani, Sephiroth still sat on the sofa with Erlang's legs crossed. And the calamity hidden in the shadows also stared motionlessly at Lelouch who was lost in thought.
Both Zai and Sephiroth have been more satisfied with Lelouch during these days, maybe Lelouch doesn't like to go to the battlefield to confront the enemy head-on, but he can strategize after the battlefield to let the enemy step into the trap step by step!
Lelouch is an excellent strategist for Zai, he is an invisible ninja like himself, he kills and injures the flesh with his sword, and he destroys the spirit with stratagem!
For Sephiroth. This boy who looked sixteen or seventeen years old was the opposite of his appearance was his calm mind and judgment, like a good chess player to get the opponent into trouble step by step, no matter what kind of team he liked, such a staff officer, with him in the rear as a support, even the soldiers on the front line could not help but feel at ease.
Even the arrogant HRE warriors had to admit that if there was a Lelouch in the original world before he crossed over. He is fully qualified to serve as a staff officer in his own troops!
"Here and here should beββWell~ The lower area will be blocked, but the other party should also expect itββThen the upper area may be a better choiceββ" Lelouch looked at the drawings while marking some marks on the drawings with a quill pen, and gradually the black prince's face showed a determined smile.
Finally putting down the pen, Lelouch turned to look at the crowd: "Next, we may be very busy!"
"It's better than being idle every day. Sephiroth moved his arms and stood up.
Zai also emerged from the shadows, his scarlet eyes shining with bloodthirsty light, and even more filled with flames that washed away shame, and the spider blade in his hand shone with a cold light like a hungry poisonous spider eager to drink blood.
Only Buyani stepped forward and asked softly, "Did you find a clue?" β
"It's not like I've found clues, it's just that I've found some possible loopholes on the other side, please note that it's just 'maybe'. β
"What is the probability of this?" Sephiroth asked.
Lelouch looked at the drawings in his hand again and replied lightly: "It's not high, only thirty percent at most." β
"That's enough, let's say, what are we going to do. β
Nodding, Lelouch spread out the drawings: "Specifically, it's not that we take the initiative, but wait until the other party crashes inββ"
After that, Lelouch pointed to a position on the drawing and explained it carefully, not letting go of every detail and every key point, and in order to convince everyone, he also explained the calculation method of his reverse thinking, which rigorously and meticulously explained the reasons for the final decision of the choice.
ββββββββββββββββ
Just when most of the free city was operating in secret, Claire, who was about to be thrown to the forefront, did not know that her originally hidden hiding place had been exposed under the nose of the city security team, on the contrary, Claire was lying on the bed at the moment and resting semi-celebratingly, because she had finally broken through to the magic level 7, which was already a few catties of ghostly achievements on the mainland, and she was already her own age, as long as she was willing to leave the free city and go to the holy capital of law. The Tower of the Sage', then he will definitely be regarded as a key training object and obtain a very high privileged position in the 'Tower of the Sage'.
A 14-year-old level 7 magician, through the 'Tower of the Philosopher' and the power of gems, Claire believes that she may be able to break through the level 20 level before the age of thirty, and become the third and youngest human archmage on the continent after the two archmages of Syllia and Farron.
And at that time, whether it is money or power, it will be rolling in to him, not only can he abandon his status as a slave, end this miserable and hateful life, and become a human being, maybe he can also sit with the nobles at that time and talk about the taste of Sandenbell wine, and maybe when he goes to that point, the arrogant nobles will be respectful in front of him. Not only that, as long as you have the power of the gem itself, you can continue to break through, and you may even reach the legendary realm.
But you can't!
Claire, who was lying on the bed, clenched the stone in her hand, maybe she could really just choose to give up, and she could end this life of hiding in the underground waterways like a ditch rat, but she couldn't! Even the thought of returning to avenge Longa after becoming an archmage couldn't appear, because she was afraid that she would forget all this when the time came!
In the red light and wine, in the graceful and luxurious life, can you really remember today's hatred in these long years? When you become the day you become the Great Magus, will the unforgettable memories of the past really not be diluted by money and power?
Claire couldn't believe it, she couldn't believe what she could do, because she was a weak-willed person, very weak! she didn't want to forget her hatred today, she didn't want to just let the person who killed Longa continue to live in this city, she couldn't leave or end this life, because only in this way could she let the flame of hatred continue to burn, like the fire of hell that never stops!
"I'm going to kill Philips ββ and Gerkate ββ I'm going to kill them, I'm going to kill them!"
Claire covered her eyes and said hideously, the face that originally looked as burned as an abomination became more distorted and terrifying because of this hatred, the boy was almost as if he was leaned over by a demon, but the stone in his hand was quietly shining blue at the moment, as if responding to the mood of the holder.
