Chapter 119: Trance
As soon as Isaac followed Claire down, he rushed forward, rolling up his sleeves and trying to touch the corpse. This kind of thing is the same as cutting out the required task materials from the corpse of a demonic beast, and he is very familiar with it.
"Hey, wait!" Claire stretched out her hand to stop.
But Isaac's hand had already reached out, and he turned back and asked, "Huh?" What's wrong. ”
"Smack!"
In the next second, Isaac felt that his outstretched wrist was pressed by a palm, which frightened him so much that goosebumps came out, jumped up on the spot, and hurriedly shouted: "Claire, he's not dead yet, hurry up and shoot a few more shots!" ”
"Is this how you treated your uncle?" The familiar hoarse voice rang out.
Claire also smiled awkwardly, her eyes glanced away, he didn't expect Isaac to be so eager to touch the corpse, and he was caught by someone.
The stumbling mage Hughes, who had fallen from the air, stood up and tossed Isaac's hand aside, his misaligned bones and dented scars returning to normal at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Isaac took a step back in surprise, looking surprised.
"What's going on? Didn't you hit him in the heart? ”
Claire wiped the spatial ring, took out another yellow bullet from it, and explained: "This is just an ordinary bullet as before, he is a necromancer, and it is no different from piercing the heart and penetrating other places." ”
Isaac's eyes widened, and he finally reacted, pointing at the two of them, "When did you hook up together?" ”
……
Time pulls back to the scene where Isaac and Hughes "confessed".
“…… It's a pity that my talent is not as good as his, and after graduation he stayed in the academy, and I had to find my own way...... After all these years of searching for magical monuments and the forsaken kingdom, I changed to the necromantic system to advance to the ...... of archmage."
As soon as Hughes finished saying this, a glint flashed in Claire's eyes, and he heard a different kind of information from these words, so he immediately radiated his spiritual power, and used the spiritual power connection method he learned before to try to establish a connection with Hughes.
Hughes's eyes flickered slightly, and he glanced at Claire suspiciously, and after not seeing any danger, he established contact with Claire.
'What do you kid want to do?' Hughes asked.
As soon as he finished speaking, Hughes felt that this was a little different from the communication technique usually used between mages, and he could actually detect what Claire was thinking on the other side.
It's kind of interesting...... Does this mean that the other person can also feel their emotions and thoughts?
At this time, Claire had already stood up and began to chat with Hughes, talking on the surface, but in private but in private.
On the bright side, Claire shouted: "How about I multiply the price that Earl Green gave you a little and a half......"
But his expression remained the same, conveying his thoughts with a spiritual connection, 'You are doing things for Earl Green for the funds he financed you, right?' ’
A sarcastic message came from Master Hughes, "You want to buy me with money? That's not impossible......"
Earl Green also shouted out at this time: "Master Hughes, don't listen to him, his whole family property now adds up to less than a million gold coins......"
'You don't seem to be as rich as Earl Green, it seems that we don't have to talk' Hughes's eyes narrowed, and he looked like he couldn't talk.
'I don't have any money, but I have a way! ’
'Huh? How so? ’
'Does the Auguste family know?' ’
'I know, which mage of the three giants of the magic shop in the country doesn't know. ’
'I know the current head of their family, Countess Sophia, I can help you write a letter of introduction, so that you have the opportunity to enter the Auguste family, you must know that Count Green, a border earl, and the top family in the royal capital can give you different support, even if Count Green gives you most of the income in the territory, it is not as big as the leftover residues of the Auguste family. ’
What's more, some magic materials are not available with money, let alone the magic materials that you need as a necromancy, and they are even rarer. But the August family runs a magic shop, and although it may give you one or two hundred thousand gold coins a year, the benefits elsewhere are not beyond the reach of ordinary people. ’
Hughes's eyes flickered, from the spiritual connection, Claire did not lie to him, he really had a way about the August family, if he could enter the August family, it would also be an opportunity for him to go to the next level, if there was such an opportunity, then it was really not uncommon for him to stay by the side of Earl Green.
Claire sensed that Hughes was a little moved, so she hit the railroad while it was hot: "Now you just need to nod your head, and you can seize this opportunity." ’
'Are you sure enough to let me into House August?' Hughes asked, wanting a definite answer.
Claire can't lie under the spiritual connection, "No, I just gave you a chance to get in touch with the August family, and with my letter of introduction, the chances of success will be higher, mainly depending on your ability." ’
Hughes thought about it and then planned to agree, Earl Green can give him very little support now, and he can't give other aspects of financial support at all, but if he joins the Auguste family, then his own path can continue, and he is very confident in his own strength.
However, Hughes still has some concerns, not to mention that it is not moral, and it will also affect his reputation, even if he joins the Auguste family in the future, he will be worried by them, after all, an archmage who betrayed his lord and other nobles will stay away if they know about it.
Claire saw his concerns and said lightly: "There is a dead Zhang San, and there is an extra Li Si......
'What do you mean?' ’
"As I just said, you don't have to do anything, and then you will be killed by me, and Master Hughes will also perish, and then you can join the Auguste family in whatever capacity you want......
Hughes thought for a moment before nodding his head, 'Okay. ’
Claire helped him create a death certificate, all he had to do was to disguise himself as a new necromancer, which was not a difficult task, and the mages and knights under the lords who had fought with him were all killed by him, and there were not many people who had seen his spell fluctuations, and if he deliberately hid it, he would not be able to tell that he was Hugh. As for the modification of appearance, it is even simpler.
The spiritual exchange between the two was unusually rapid, and when he spoke of this, Earl Green's words had just fallen.
"I can give you a certain amount of research funding every year, don't be deceived by this kid!"
Hughes also waved his robe directly, and said to Claire with an indifferent face: "Okay, don't say it again, I'm not the kind of villain who has no principles, for Duke's sake's sake, I will let you make three moves, and after three moves, I will do it!" ”
After the first two attacks, Claire loaded her previous bullets, aimed at Hughes, who was far out, and pulled the trigger.
The bullet shot out and sank into the force field shield, Hughes felt the power above it was exactly the same as Claire said, so he pretended to be difficult to resist, and then took the initiative to pierce the force field shield, so that the bullet penetrated his heart, he has been a necromancer for many years, and the human weakness of the heart has long disappeared.
Then he shielded all his life force, entered a state of suspended animation, and fell directly from the sky.
……
After listening to the explanation, Isaac suddenly understood, and his eyes kept looking back and forth between Claire and Hughes.
"You two have made this deal behind my back in such a short period of time, and I'm still in the dark!"
Claire put her arm around Isaac's shoulders, "What a deal, it's called cooperation!" ”
Hughes didn't say much, he flew up and set himself a flying technique, and said to Claire, "Where is your city?" ”
Claire pointed in the direction, and Hughes sped in the direction of Nafjo, not interested in chatting with the two little boys.
It wasn't until Hughes had flown some distance that Isaac spoke, "I thought you really got my idea out and killed him?" ”
"How is it possible, how can a mage at the level of an archmage die so easily."
The two of them also flew up slowly, keeping a distance from Hughes and continuing to talk.
"But I'm still a little worried."
"Say."
"What are we going to do if he doesn't make this deal with you?"
"How is it possible, the relationship between the lord and those enshrined mages is originally a pure relationship of interest, as long as the benefits you give are greater, they will not hesitate to fall to your side, if I am 100% sure that I can let him enter the August family, then he can immediately turn around and help us deal with Earl Green, without any need to look ahead. And ......"
Speaking of this, Claire was suddenly stunned, and Isaac hurriedly asked, "And what?" ”
Isaac flicked the spatial ring, and a yellow bullet flashed before entering the spatial ring, "And how do you know that I didn't get that idea of yours out." ”
Isaac's eyes lit up, and he reached out and grabbed Claire, "Show me!" ”
Claire put her index finger to her lips, "Shhh Secret! I'll see it next time I have a chance. ”
After saying that, Claire sped up and rushed out, and Isaac quickly chased after him, entangled in front of Claire and kept chattering.
