Chapter 68: Killing People and Destroying Mouths
In the palace's underground laboratory, Murrihan was still looking through the parchment. He may not have noticed that behind him, there was already a small black dragon. There is no doubt that the black dragon is none other than Giroud.
Giroud had previously felt that it was being studied by others, due to the fact that he had the ability to sense things of his own. The ability to sense is a universally visible ability in Warcraft. As long as it is a part of the body of the monster, even if it falls off or is forcibly taken away by others, it can be tracked according to the breath.
"Giroud, if someone is using something to investigate you, get rid of him. Princess Kate has already gone back, I'm afraid you won't have a chance to wait a minute. You'd better not expose too much, and it's better to do it quickly. As Giroud looked at Murrihan from behind, Edge's voice came from within his soul.
At this time, Giroud saw the black scales in the magic medicine bottle on the laboratory table next to him, and he would not recognize his own scales. 'So that's what happened...... ' After seeing the black scales, it replied to Age, "Don't worry, young man, I have found out the cause of the matter, and I will solve it immediately!"
"After all, it's me who caused something like this. Giroud said, flicking his wings with great speed, flying to the magic vial, biting it with his mouth, and then flying to the next corner.
"Who?!" Murrihan, who had been cautiously looking at the parchment scroll, suddenly turned around and shouted. He was already a little nervous when he was worried about being found by others, but Giroud's sudden appearance naturally made him as frightened as if he had met a ghost in the middle of the night.
But because Giroud was so fast and flew to the corner, Murrihan didn't see it. Surprised, Murrayhan, who had seen nothing, hid the parchment behind his back and cautiously examined every corner of the laboratory. Although he has been immersed in research all his life and has not learned too many combat skills, he is already a sage and knows a little magic.
He was sure that something had entered the lab.
Giroud watched his every move from the corner. Giroud was curious to see him quickly hide a parchment roll behind his back with trepidation. This old man who has the ability to study himself actually cares so much about the parchment roll, so the parchment roll is definitely a very important thing.
Giroud wanted to get his hands on the parchment scroll as a punishment for the old man's attempt to study himself and as a "gift" to Edge, if it would be useful to Edge.
"What?!" Murrihan checked around the lab and walked to the lab table where the black scales were placed, only to realize that the magic vial with the black scales was missing. Immediately, he exclaimed, and he was 100% sure that someone had sneaked in the laboratory.
"Damn, you'd better come out and don't think I didn't see you. I see you! I'm coming towards you, you're dead!" Murrihan became more cautious, his eyes looking around, and it was clear that he hadn't spotted Giroud.
Giroud thought it was funny, this old man was really funny, and he couldn't help but hum: "Yes, you saw me, yes, then you come here, come and catch me~"
Giroud actually snorted, not the soul exchange he had with Age. It did this for fun, and to lure Murrihan over, and it wanted to find an opportunity to get his hands on the parchment scroll that Murrihan had hidden behind his back.
Murrayham was amazed at how daring the man who had sneaked in, and he knew there must be a conspiracy. But even then he had to go to the corner where he had just made the sound. This black scale is a clue to track down the assassination of Her Royal Highness Princess Kate, if the black scale is stolen, not only Princess Kate, but also the king will not easily forgive himself.
The pressure on Murrihan was high.
Giroud watched him walk as he walked as he walked by, wondering how he could quickly grab the parchment and leave. As Edge said, Kate has left the dungeon, so she will definitely go here. If you don't evacuate quickly, I'm afraid you'll be besieged by a group of soldiers in a minute.
Murrihan walked towards the corner where Giroud was hiding, clutching a black potion in his hand. It was a magic potion he had researched with great damage power, and he planned to use it against Giroud.
Giroud finally came up with a quick way to grab Murrihan's parchment, intending to get bigger and knock Murrihan unconscious when he got closer.
Merrihan took a sharp step forward and quickly poured the magic potion in his hand.
"Roar!!"
Giroud burst out at the same time, and quickly grew in size, becoming about twice the size of a man. It hadn't turned its body into full dragon form, and if it did, the lab would have been crowded.
"Ah~!"
Murrihan never imagined that a demonic beast would suddenly burst out of the corner that was empty just now. And this monster is still ...... Murrihan was just trying to see what the beast was coming out, but he quickly felt a sharp pain. He was bumped by Giroud, who came out of his way, and fell to the ground and hit his head, fainting instantly.
He, a sage, was knocked unconscious by Giroud so easily, not only because Giroud used a lot of strength, but also because he was so fiercely frightened. Who would have thought that there was originally only one experimental counter, and it was impossible to hide a magical beast in the corner, and a magical beast would suddenly burst out?
I'm afraid that even if it's not Murrayhan, who has become nervous because of the parchment roll, or anyone else, they will be shocked by such a scene.
Giroud quickly became smaller after knocking Murrihan unconscious, jumped behind Murrihan, bit off Murrihan's clothes, and bit the parchment roll caught inside. It then flew away from the laboratory skylight and headed straight back into the dungeon.
Kate was on her way back to the lab, but when she suddenly heard movement in the lab from outside, she was shocked and rushed to the lab. When she arrived at the lab, she was shocked. I saw that one of the laboratory benches had been knocked over, and Murrihan had been knocked unconscious.
What's going on?
Black scales!
She didn't care about Murrihan in the first place, but went to see how the black scales were doing. Of course, the result was that she didn't see the black scales, because the black scales had already been taken by Giroud.
"Damn it!"
When she saw that the black scales were gone, she angrily punched the test table, and the magic medicine bottles on the test table fell one after another, shattering on the ground.
Murrayhan, who had fainted, woke up in shock. Seeing Kate's angry look and the fact that the black scales were missing, he suddenly remembered that he had been knocked unconscious by a demonic beast. However, his first instinct was not to ask Kate for forgiveness, but immediately reached out and touched his back to check if the parchment that was clipped to his back was still there.
When he didn't touch the parchment, his face turned ashen. It's gone, it's gone! It's a sheepskin scroll that records the Adora tribe that is deeply forbidden by the Holy See! What reaction would it have if it were made public?!
Murrihan felt that he had committed an unforgivable mistake.
"Sorry!" Kate shouted, and immediately turned to leave the laboratory and rushed straight to the dungeon.
As she reacted, she thought of the confident words that Edge had said when she left the dungeon. For this reason, she suspected that the black scales had been snatched away by Age. To test this hypothesis, she rushed to the dungeon again.
Inside the dungeon, Giroud stood triumphantly in front of Edge. Edge, on the other hand, looked carefully at a tattered parchment. This parchment scroll is the same parchment scroll that Giroud had just obtained from Merrihan, and it contains the mysteries of the Adora people.
Edge looked through it and said to Giroud, "Giroud, are you sure it's a treasure?"
"I'm sure. You don't see that the old man cares about it, it feels like it's more important than his life. Are you a baby?" Giroud was sure.
But Aegie frowned and said, "Unfortunately, I can't read any of the words on it. ”
"Wow~ That means it's a treasure! If it's a text you can't read, either it doesn't belong to this era, or it's a mysterious race, or both. You should really look into it. Giroud exclaimed.
Of course, judging by its appearance, I can't tell how excited it is. It's a magic dragon and doesn't pursue any treasures. The one who wants the baby should be Age, who is a human.
"Hmm...... Yes, it's just ......" Aegie was responding to Giroud, but suddenly his eyes changed, and he slowly withdrew the parchment roll into his arms, cautious and guarded.
Giroud had already noticed something was wrong, jumped on his shoulder, and said, "Just have to deal with this uninvited guest first." ”
With a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, Aiji stood up and said loudly outside the cell, "Come out, friend hiding outside." ”
As soon as he shouted, a wall outside his cell changed. I saw that the front of the stone wall suddenly distorted, and a purple-black light suddenly appeared. The light swirls and forms a magic circle. Then a masked man in a robe stepped out of the magic circle. The man's eyes were cold, staring at Edge, with murderous intent.
"It's actually a space magician, what a smart guy. Aiji looked at the masked man who appeared and frowned slightly.
But the masked man didn't talk nonsense, and directly cast a few black gravity balls after appearing. The gravity ball flew into Edge's cell, driving the air in the cell, forming wisps of air blades that constantly attacked Edge.
Edge quickly unleashed his magic shield and asked Giroud to support him, so that the Air Blade could not damage him.
"Who sent you here to kill someone?" asked Aegie in a cold voice to the masked man.
Of course, the masked man didn't even move his lips.
"Professional killer?" said Edge, muttering when he saw that the masked man was unresponsive. But soon he began to fight, and snorted coldly: "Although you are very professional, your strength is far worse than that of Red Lotus!"
"Bang!"
With that, he waved his arm, and suddenly sent out a wave of magic to shatter the gravity ball beside him.
Seeing this, the masked man was finally moved, frowned, and then used more powerful space magic to attack again. His mission is to kill Age, no matter what means are used.
Faced with the killer in front of him, Edge guessed that he was here to kill him. The real culprit who hired Red Lotus to kill Kate was not caught, but it was confirmed that it was Kate's brother. Presumably, Kate's brother must be afraid of himself, after all, he used to be Kate's bodyguard. Now I'm afraid he found an opportunity to attack himself before he sent the killer.
