Chapter XXIX: Case X Fluctuations
Su Yu returned to the Ellik Mansion, but the head of the Elric family still hadn't returned, so he received a report from the butler, "Young Master, the warlord chief asks to see you." ”
In this world, there are warlords in every region, warlords hold a certain number of soldiers, protect the stability of the region, and at the same time warlords are responsible for the trial of various local cases, equivalent to the prefect in ancient times, although the warlords do not belong to the subordinates of the regional fief nobles, and must obey their orders, but the fief nobility is above the warlords, and often the warlords will ask the fief nobles to decide if they have something that cannot be solved, and the nobles cannot send the warlords to work for them at will, except for the necessary time to protect the nobles and comfort.
"Ask the warlord chief to wait in the parlor, and I'll go change my clothes first. Su Yu nodded, the head of the Erlik family is not here, so it is naturally up to him, who is the young master, to call the shots, but unfortunately I have not yet digested the information I know so far before I encountered other things. Su Yu turned around and pursed the corners of his mouth, now that he can't be contacted, what warlord is doing for a long time, and he doesn't want to have anything to do with anything unrelated to the task. Su Yu had no choice but to meet people.
"Young Master Elric, Gui'an. The warlord has a mustache, some tight military uniforms and his round belly look funny, Su Yu complained in his heart that this is the image of cannon fodder or villains in the novel, but Su Yu is smiling, still looking like a gentle male god, "Warlord chief, please sit down, my father is not here, I don't know if there is anything I can help with." ”
"The young master is polite. The warlord sat opposite Su Yu, the flesh on his face piled up with a smile, "Presumably the young master has also heard about the recent disappearance of the girl." ”
Su Yu had a plan in his heart, it seemed that he had heard that the case of the girl's disappearance had reached a point where the warlord could not solve it.
"The girls who have recently disappeared are all between 15 and 18 years old, and 12 people have disappeared and have no other common characteristics. The time of disappearance is irregular, but the scene that has been found has left alchemy fluctuations, which are preliminarily determined to be done by alchemists, and it is not excluded that ordinary people use alchemy magic tools to do it. There are not many alchemists here, they have been checked one by one, and the alchemy fluctuations do not match, there is likely to be an external warlock, I don't know what his purpose is, we don't have a clue about these, and we ask Young Master Elric to help. ”
All alchemists in this world have to go to the Alchemy Association for registration and level evaluation, and the alchemy fluctuations left by different alchemists are unique, and alchemists can be identified through alchemy fluctuations. I can't imagine that this warlord chief is not brainless, and yes, not all cannon fodder is stupid, this warlord chief is probably a little villain. Su Yu has always believed that the reason why the cannon fodder was cannon fodder was completely because of stupidity, and the reason why the villain was killed was because of the existence of the protagonist.
Speaking of alchemy fluctuations, Su Yu's first thought was You Fei, and I don't know if You Fei has registered. "Oh, the warlord hasn't finished the investigation, I haven't been examined. "Su Yu is registered in the imperial capital, and only the fluctuation of warlocks registered in the imperial capital cannot be detected in other places, but it can also be confirmed directly through personal testing.
"The young master said with a smile, no one will be you, young master. The warlord smiled awkwardly.
"The warlord chief should check it out, I must set an example of how seriously the Elric family takes this matter, and no one can be excluded. ”
"In this way, there is Young Master Lloellick. As he spoke, the warlord chief motioned to the guard officer beside him, and a silver hourglass was brought up, with a tip conduit on the top and bottom of the hourglass, which was not very beautiful. The lower end has been fed into the alchemy fluctuations detected on the spot, and the detected person will input the alchemy fluctuations from the upper end, and if the fluctuation frequency is exactly the same, all the sand above will flow into the lower end.
Su Yu raised his hand and silently urged the spell to transmit the fluctuations to the hourglass. Su Yu sighed more than once, fortunately, every time he crossed, he could inherit the tall skills of the original owner.
I saw that the white sand grains began to glow with golden light and flowed downward. Su Yu watched the hourglass quietly, and the sand grains stopped after flowing two-thirds of the way. The warlord seemed relieved and waved for the hourglass to be taken down. It seems that the warlord chief really doubted him.
"So what does Master Elric think about this? ”
Su Yu lowered his eyelids and pondered for a moment, "I can refine a sensor with my mental fluctuations, so that all girls aged 15 to 18 can wear it with them, once the prisoner appears and shows alchemy fluctuations, I can feel it and rush over as soon as possible." ”
"Excuse me, Master Elric. The warlord smiled brighter and brighter, just waiting for Su Yu's words, as a senior alchemist, Su Yu could catch the prisoner by himself. "It's a blessing for the residents to have Young Master Elric, then we'll go first, and when the young master refines the sensor, I'll send someone to fetch it. ”
"Butler, send the warlord chief. ”
When Su Yu returned to the room, "Ahhh!!!!h
Su Yu rolled over on the bed and struggled for a while, deciding to refine the sensor first.
Su Yu used cinnabar to draw a magic array in the room, reciting spells, and at the cost of metal utensils, urging mental fluctuations. There was a burst of white light, and the sensor was made, simple and rude!
The girl disappeared within 300 miles south of Elric's Mansion, and there were not many girls of the right age in the area, but there were hundreds. The refining of the sensor was not complicated, but Su Yu still felt very tired after the number of hundreds. After asking the housekeeper to let the warlord chief come to receive it, Su Yu fell asleep.
The fluctuations from the sensor were very strong, and Su Yu was not worried about sleeping and missing the prisoner, and he had already drawn an indirect teleportation array in each sensor and room. The teleportation array is different from the portal, which is a door made through alchemy, which can be teleported to any place at will, and each time the teleportation costs expensive, a large amount of gold or rare gems. The teleportation array refers to a short-distance temporary teleportation within 300 miles, and only 500 gold coins are required to urge the formation, but the user must return through the teleportation array within 1 hour, otherwise the teleportation array will begin to consume a large amount of alchemist's spiritual power. Therefore, when using the teleportation array, the alchemist will also use the hypnotic technique of time-limited forced return.
Su Yu went back in a daze, and after a long time, in a daze, he seemed to hear someone calling his name;
"En......" Su Yu replied impatiently.
"Wake up Su Yu!"
"Ah....... in a row!." Su Yu immediately came to his senses and rubbed his eyes, "Luo Yi, how are you now." ”
"I should ask you this. For some reason, the restrictions on the temple's side only weakened in the middle of the night, and I can only contact you at this time. ”
"Well, it seems a bit of a hassle. Su Yu told the situation of meeting with You Fei and the case of the girl's disappearance.
Luo Yi thought for a while, "Do you think You Fei has anything to do with this matter?" ”
Su Yu was silent, his impression of You Fei was very good, quiet, calm, studious, strong, and extremely trusting of himself, in addition to the contrast of the black and straight beautiful girl's painting style, so Su Yu still likes You Fei's sister very much. But I have to say that he doesn't know You Fei at all, and from the memory of the original owner, he can't know when You Fei started practicing alchemy, how high You Fei's level is, what You Fei thinks, to herself, to the people around her who completely ignore her, and to this world that denies her. Apathy, resentment, or it doesn't matter.
The prisoner in the case of the disappearance of the girl has not been caught for so long, and there is no doubt that the alchemy ability is very strong, or the alchemy magic weapon used is at the law level or the holy level. The warlord naturally didn't know that You Fei's alchemy was very powerful, or that no one except herself and Su Yu knew about it, so naturally he hadn't checked You Fei's alchemy fluctuations.
"I don't know, I don't want to believe that You Fei has something to do with this matter, isn't You Fei the protagonist of this world, and this kind of thing is not what the protagonist should do. Su Yu pursed her lips.
"Su Yu. Luo Yi didn't expect Su Yu to be willing to speak for someone who had only met once, "No matter what, you have to bring You Fei to the imperial capital as soon as possible, this plane is more complicated than I imagined, You Fei is different from your previous mission object, her soul power is so strong that it is likely to bring you harm, only when you go to the imperial capital can I protect you." ”
"What the hell is going on, you Fei ...... her"
"That's all I can tell you. Su Yu, believe me. ”
"Isn't that nonsense? The only thing I trust is you. If you go to the imperial capital, what will happen to the task, if You Fei's wish can only be fulfilled here. ”
"No, the mission is to maintain the stability of the plane and develop in the specified direction, if you can take You Fei to the imperial capital, it means that the mission can only be carried out in the imperial capital. Listening to Su Yu's unhesitating trust in him, the corners of his mouth rose, and joy filled his heart, it felt like a filament was pulled from his heart to bind him and Su Yu together. It's just not satisfied, if there are more......
In the temple, the conversation between Luo Yi and Su Yu was communicated in his head, and the attendants only saw their handsome priest bathed in the moonlight, and suddenly smiled, blinding everyone.
"That's it, I'll go talk to You Fei tomorrow. What if she insists on refusing to go?"
"Then we'll talk about it then. ”
