Chapter Ninety-Eight: Backtracking
The Wings of Truth Underground Headquarters, here is the deepest part of the underground headquarters base, the structure of the Wings of Truth Underground Headquarters is a hollow huge tree-shaped hollow, the center of the hole is a huge pillar, and there are many buildings embedded in the walls around the hole, and many combat teams and research institutions of the Wings of Truth are among these buildings, and the real core area of the headquarters of the Wings of Truth "Ming" lies in the central column.
The diameter of the central column has reached tens of meters, and the height of more than 100 meters is straight to the ceiling, and there are mysterious carvings and patterns on the column. The pillars are smelted into a lot of precious metals and stones, and they are unbreakable. This pillar is of course an important support, but it is semi-hollow, and the hollow pillars are cast into numerous rooms, which are where the upper floors of the Wings of Truth are located.
The lowest level of the stone pillar, the realm of Reinhardt, the Fourth Heavenly King of the Wings of Truth.
A huge circular space with a diameter of tens of meters, there was nothing superfluous except for a huge stone chair, and the obsidian floor shone brightly, reflecting the nervous and suffocating face of a person.
A member of the Wings of Truth was on one knee, beads of sweat sliding down his face onto the smooth obsidian floor.
The man on the throne had gray hair and was scattered behind his head, and even when he was sitting, he looked very tall and majestic, like a lying lion, with a pair of narrow eyes of a yin owl on his huge hooked nose, staring at the kneeling member of the Wings of Truth.
"You're saying that just now, Petra killed a couple of researchers from the weapons lab, and stole the Hallows?"
"Yes, Throne. ”
The member of the Wings of Truth hung his head, he was the lightning mage who had spotted the anomaly and chased Lucius.
"Is there anything important about the deceased?" Reinhardt's voice roared like a lion in the empty hall.
"Not really. ”
"Then you stand down, I'll take care of it, and I'll ask him why he stole the Hallows. ”
"But・・・・・・" the lightning mage hesitated.
Reinhardt's eyes froze, and the air in the entire hall seemed to condense, and he didn't like it for anyone to disobey his orders, even if it was a momentary hesitation.
The thunder mage was walking on thin ice, his body seemed to stiffen, "Throne, Petra is ・・・・・・ dead・・・・・・"
Petra has no other background, but he is still arrogant in the master Wings of Truth, because he has been instructed by Reinhardt, the fourth ace of the Wings of Truth, and is one of his disciples, and Reinhardt has always been a protective person, whether he likes this student or not.
The thunder mage held his breath tremblingly, but the storm he had imagined hadn't come.
"How he died. ”
"He ran away after ・・・・・・ killing, stealing the Hallows・・・・・・ and then I had the early warning system activated in the hope of stopping him, but he was killed by the guards when he went out・・・・・・"
Reinhardt's wide hand grasped the armrest of the stone chair, and the stone chair broke inch by inch under his grip, half of which instantly turned into powder, and together with the obsidian slate underground, it broke inch by inch with the chair as the center of the circle!
"Caretaker ・・・・・・"
He stood up, his rage burning the entire space.
The flame was quickly extinguished, for the murderer was the caretaker of the wings of truth.
"What about the Hallow?" Reinhardt was like a lion with suppressed anger.
"I don't know about this ・・・・・・, there is no holy weapon on Petra's body, but Deacon Petra was very badly injured, and it stands to reason that the dead would not have caused him such a great injury, and his behavior was very abnormal, an indescribable unnatural feeling・・・・・・"
Reinhardt's right hand was opened, and the air currents around him surged wildly, and the thunder mage flew in front of him like a piece of paper, grabbing the mage's neck with his broad palm.
"You, go find the hounds in the Spell Identification Department, and I'll find out this matter myself!
"Yes・・・・・・ yes, Lord Throne. ”
・・・・・・
Of course, Detective Wales didn't know that the Royal Spell Trace Identification Section, which he wanted to apply for cautiously and dragged his friends to invite, was summoned by Reinhardt, the fourth ace of the Wings of Truth, and immediately rushed over, which is probably the effect of power and strength.
In Reinhardt's hall, the mangled body of Deacon Petra had been moved, and a young mage in blue robes was standing around it.
"Master Falot, please use the backtracking spell on this corpse. ”
Although Reinhardt was using honorifics, no one could hear the polite meaning inside, which was clearly a blunt order.
"Yes, Your Excellency Reinhardt's Throne. ”
The Falo mage from the Spell Trace Identification Section looked calm, not angry at Reinhardt's tone, nor afraid of the overwhelming aura of his body, even though he was almost out of breath under it.
He crouched down slowly, Petra's body in tatters, as if someone had used a broken puppet. There was a palpable look of disgust on Fallow's face, and it was not known if he was disgusted with the corpse or his own abilities.
Fallow suddenly plunged his index finger into Petra's corpse's eyeball, stirring it so hard that a disgusting liquid flowed from his socket.
The next action made the lightning mage who was watching from the sidelines almost vomit out his lunch, even though he was used to killing.
Fallo actually put the finger that had stirred in Petra's brain into his mouth!
He savored the sticky taste on his fingers as if it were the best delicacy in the world!
This is Falow's unique talent, and it is also the reason why he became the deputy head of the forensic department at such a young age.
Typical backtracking spells use magic element 96 to recreate the scene at the time, but this scene is not dynamic, but rather staccato images.
And Falo, by touching the brain marrow of the deceased, can use the retrospective spell of the magic element No. 96 to form a real dynamic picture in his own brain, which is what the deceased really saw and heard before he died!
Of course, this ability reinforces the authenticity of the Flashback Charm, but it can only form a picture in Falo's mind, and cannot be seen by others through the medium like a regular Flashback Charm.
Fallow opened his eyes.
"How?"
A solemn expression appeared on Falow's face.
"It's dark. ”
In other words, Petra was cut off from the sensual and mental connection before she died, and he was controlled by man. ”
"Where's the Hallow?"
Fallow shook his head.
Taking control of people's bodies and seizing the Hallows sounds like those necromancers or puppeteers. But each of them is a mortal sin that will not die with the wings of truth.
"What should we do?" asked the Thunder Mage resignedly.
"Kill my disciple right under my nose, take my artifact・・・・・・ find him!
Reinhardt was like a lion about to hunt.
(It's a holiday, I wish you all a happy New Year's Day!)
