Lin Jiu and Red Lotus acted together, not to investigate the intelligence, but to get to know Sindy's stepmother Figas head-on. As a part of the story, she must know a lot more than the others.

The location of Figasi's residence was not difficult to find, and Lin Jiu had already inquired about the location in advance during the day. After night fell and the town was quiet, Lin Jiu quickly found it.

This residence was much larger than Lin Jiu had imagined. Next to the Guards camp is the most luxurious residence in the town of Metz. Because it is the residence of the mayor of Metz Town, and being able to serve as the mayor of Metz Town also has an identity in the royal city, so it is normal.

The house in front of it can be said to be the second most luxurious in the town of Metz. After Cindy left, it stands to reason that there were only three orphans and widows left in their family. I didn't even run into any trouble, could it be because of the deterrence of the name of the evil witch.

Even if Anna has the power of flames and wealth, she is still targeted by people with intentions. Wait a minute...... Sophie has stated that her stepmother can do magic, but she is not exactly an evil witch on the surface.

Perhaps it is the power of magic that makes the greedy who peep at the wealth helpless, and the name of the evil witch spreads. This will definitely attract certain people to deal with the "evil witch", and those who are greedy will have a chance.

Soon Lin Jiu didn't think so, he was in big trouble here.

"Outsider, you seem to have some bad thoughts. Sneaking into a lady's home in the middle of the night is not what a gentleman is called. A mature female voice came, followed by a two-finger-thick fire snake swimming towards Lin Jiu.

Lin Jiu reacted very quickly and pulled out the twilight sparrow and cut the fire snake open, but saw the broken fire snake twist twice, recover its integrity, and swim back.

The house lit up, and the moment the Blackbird Radar launched a reconnaissance, Lin Jiu also saw the appearance of the owner of the house. Tall figure, dark red top, black pants with gold vertical stripes. Beneath the linen-colored hair is delicate features, and the body is also embellished with jewels. A white mink hangs from a pair of arms, and one hand elegantly holds a fan. There is no doubt that even at the kingdom banquet, the woman in front of her is like an elegant aristocratic woman.

And the degree of control of the fire snake in the other party's hand just now made Lin Jiu secretly troublesome. Lin Jiu could naturally see that the fire snake was purely composed of flames, which was already comparable to using the energy control ability of the spirit gauze feather cloak to control the solar fireworks.

It seems that what Sophie said will be a little magic, but it will not be a star and a half, and the information displayed by the Blackbird radar in the next moment also verifies this.

……

Lin Jiu's hunch was not wrong, he was in trouble, and it was a big trouble. He may have thought about the role of Sophie's stepmother, and maybe the strength will not be weak. But I never thought that it would be an archmage.

You must know that the title of Archmage is not worthy of everyone. Lin Jiu really didn't know much about this, but the last archmage he knew was named Lafayette, who caused the magic guild to encircle and suppress him, leaving a bunch of puppets to become the target of his main quest. This experience alone shows how extraordinary the Archmage is.

Lin Jiu felt that the only person who could answer his doubts was the person concerned, and asked directly, "I didn't expect you to be an archmage. How are you...... Uh, how are you going to go into seclusion? ”

"Shouldn't you, the uninvited guest, explain to me first?" Figas is an archmage in the end, and his temperament is very good. A pair of Danfeng eyes stared at Lin Jiu so unkindly, quietly pulling away some distance, and the fan in his hand swayed, as if he was ready to make a move at any time.

Just now, Figas thought that it was some kind of foreign thief who didn't have long eyes, and was ready to teach a lesson, but when she saw the scene of the other party's sword slashing the fire snake, she instantly realized that the person who came was not good, and it was not simple. The archmage's spells are so easy to block, then this name has long been rotten on the street.

His own fiery snake was cut off without any resistance at all. The consequences of being close will only be worse, as a mage, the first thing is to keep your distance from melee. Now it's indoors, and the combat environment doesn't seem to be very favorable for itself. Seeing that the other party had no intention of continuing to use force, Figas also chose to verbally confront.

And there are many reasons why Lin Jiu chose to stop first, first, the two of them are fighting and moving a lot, I am afraid that they can blow up half of the town of Metz; Second, he is here to find information, not to kill people. His original plan was to find a way to control the target so that he could better ask for information, but now this path is not working.

In terms of force, the archmage is at least at the level of a fourth-order contractor. An archmage of Lafayette's level should start at at least the fifth order. The option of controlling the target is only used when the two sides have a large difference in strength, and the strength is similar, that is, they fight each other.

Lin Jiu was not nervous at all in this scene, and even found a chair to sit down, the reason was that it was easy to come: "Ms. Figas, I'm sorry to visit you in this way." I am a friend of Sophie's friend, and I was asked by my friend to come all the way to visit Sophie. But after some inquiry, Sophie is no longer here.

But I still have to know the reason, those movements during the day are my first arrival, and I don't know what happened, so that you can laugh, lady. After thinking about it, only Ms. Figars might know the details, so she took the liberty of visiting at night. ”

"Friends of friends...... That's not a very clever reason. Figars shook the folding fan in his hand and shook his head slightly.

"My friend said she wasn't worried about what would happen to Sophie, she just asked me to say hello." Lin Jiu smiled, the other party said that the reason was not clever, but in fact, he believed it. Because it is precisely because it is not clever that it is more likely to be true. If it's fake, it can be made up to be more believable.

"Mother, hasn't the thief been solved yet?"

"It's been a long time since a thief has appeared." Two young women appeared behind Figas, with some doubts. There may have been cases of outsiders breaking in before, but they were all easily solved in front of them. This time it seems a little strange.

Lin Jiu only glanced at them, and after confirming that there was no threat, he ignored them.
