Chapter 15: Are You an Expert, Am I an Expert?

"Zhang, this is the entrusted employer, Mr. Merlin."

Inside the church, Smith introduces Merlin, who conceals his identity, to Zhang Huaiying.

"He's a wealthy merchant from Makai County, and he's come to Arkham Town to find important items that have been stolen by the Ripper."

"Hello, I'm a detective in Arkham Town, Zhang Huaiying, just call me Zhang according to your habits."

Zhang Huaiying nodded casually at Merlin, his eyes just stopped for a moment and then hurriedly skimmed, and Ludwig on the side looked frightened.

In his heart, Zhang Huaiying is a real master, and he is a strong person at the same level as a top wizard of the church like Merlin.

He was particularly worried that Zhang Huaiying would recognize Merlin, or that Merlin would recognize the former, but now it seemed that the two did not know each other.

"Mr. Merlin, without further ado, how about we go to the abandoned factory where the Ripper often stays?"

"I'm just an employer, and of course everything is at the mercy of professionals."

Merlin smiled happily, ready to see what was so special about this detective who had been blown into the sky by Smith and Ludwig.

This is the second time Zhang Huaiying has come to the abandoned factory in the suburbs.

Unlike the last time, yesterday after they had captured White the Ripper back into town, the sheriff of the Arkham Sheriff's Department packed up all the evidence and prepared to hand it over to the church.

The relics of the Dark Wizard are likely to cause a great catastrophe if not properly disposed of.

After Zhang Huaiying took Merlin and the two into the depths of the factory, there was nothing left here.

"Detective Zhang, it's time for you to perform. When I came to town yesterday, I heard about your name. ”

Merlin smiled happily.

Searching for possible altars is one thing, and tempting Zhang Huaiying is another.

He was curious to know what kind of reasoning skills this genius detective had to calculate White's kind of thing; Or maybe the latter itself is not clean.

"Of course, reasoning is my forte." Zhang Huaiying is very confident.

He crouched down and touched his chin with one hand in a pensive look.

In his eyes, countless chaotic breaths were disordered, just slightly calm, and the breath that belonged to White was picked out by him, and if he followed this breath, he could go to any place that White had reached.

"What is he doing?" Merlin pondered in his mind.

"Just test him."

In the eyes of the Great Wizard, the elements of the world are clearly visible spirits that can be mobilized with just one thought.

It is precisely by virtue of his subtle control of the elements that the Grand Wizard can easily pry the rules in the microcosm, and can also disrupt the situation in the macrocosm through the connection of elemental chaos.

Just a thought, in the area in front of Zhang Huaiying, a trap constructed of pure holy light appeared out of thin air.

As long as he enters, Merlin can directly touch the trap, and then the pure holy light will cover all parts of Zhang Huaiying's body, as long as he is contaminated with the power of black magic.

Even if he is the best of the dark wizards, if he does not take precautions, he will be severely damaged.

Looking at Zhang Huaiying's back, Merlin flicked his fingers.

"Mr. Detective, what do you think is that?"

He gestured in the direction of the trap, and the fragment of the altar he had taken yesterday appeared on the ground.

"Oh?"

Zhang Huaiying's eyes lit up, and he took a step forward without hesitation and stepped directly into the trap.

Merlin's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

Watching Zhang Huaiying stand defenselessly in his trap.

Could it be that I was mistaken?

He thought about it, and his mind came to mind the traits that countless dark wizards shared.

Crazy, cunning.

Risking one's life is nothing to a dark wizard.

As soon as the thought moved, the holy light in the trap suddenly boiled, and in a place that no one else could see, the majestic holy light seemed to be an active volcano that was about to erupt.

But for all those who are tainted with the power of dark magic, it is as if the sky has fallen.

"Wait!"

Merlin's eyes narrowed slightly, was that really the case?

"Ludwig, do you feel it!"

However, he saw Zhang Huaiying look back sharply at Ludwig.

"What?"

The latter was also surprised when asked.

"You're a knight of the church, so you should know how to do white witchcraft." But Zhang Huaiying didn't give the two of them time to think, he directly picked up the piece of altar fragment that Merlin threw down from the ground.

"You see, this is the remnants of the Ripper White Altar, which was not cleaned up at the time."

"So......" Ludwig still didn't understand.

Zhang Huaiying raised his head and said confidently:

"According to reasoning, white witchcraft and black witchcraft go hand in hand, and this altar fragment has remnants of the Ripper's black witchcraft, as long as you use the white witchcraft correctly, you can successfully reveal the Ripper's previous path of action."

Ludwig listened in a fog, but Merlin was stupid.

What's that?

Black witchcraft and white witchcraft do work against each other, but the question is, what is the use of white witchcraft to show the trajectory of black witchcraft?

Are you a White Wizard?

"Detective Zhang, although I don't know much about wizards, isn't it too whimsical to use white witchcraft to show the tricks of dark wizards?"

Merlin couldn't help it, he only felt that Zhang Huaiying's words were just nonsense.

"Because you don't understand, my reasoning is correct."

Merlin:???

I don't understand? Is there anyone else in this world who understands?

"Ludwig, do it." However, Zhang Huaiying ignored him directly and nodded at Ludwig.

"Good!" Without hesitation, Ludwig raised his hand and there was a holy light.

Merlin didn't expect Ludwig to actually copy it?

He just wanted to ask, Ludwig, have you returned everything you learned from the church to the teacher in the past few years!

Bang!

The pure holy light hit the altar fragments, and the mutual restraint force was like fire and water, and in just an instant, the altar fragments turned into a wisp of black smoke and dispersed.

Merlin blinked, but there was nothing in front of him.

He looked at Zhang Huaiying with strange eyes.

This guy ......

Is it really a detective?

Why would I ...... to him? Look forward to it.

Merlin was dumbfounded, he looked at Zhang Huaiying, who was unaware of the traps around him, and casually dispersed the holy light.

He didn't think that the group of dark wizards would choose a fool to do the internal response.

Then he looked at Ludwig again, how did he feel that this junior he was very optimistic about had become stupid after leaving the church?

"Road ......"

Before the words could be spoken, Merlin's tongue almost cramped.

I saw a faint wisp of black smoke rise from the ground in place, and with a sway, drifted towards the southeast corner of Arkham Town.

Looking at the black smoke he made, Zhang Huaiying smiled with satisfaction, this time the theory was seamless.

"Let's go, let's follow."

As he spoke, Zhang Huaiyi took the lead, followed by Ludwig and Merlin.

The latter looked at Merlin with a worried expression, and the sudden black smoke made Ludwig equally confused.

He didn't learn this in church.

"Sir, has our church used this method before?"

Merlin didn't speak, he couldn't have told Ludwig, and he didn't know.

But with the spiritual power of the Great Wizard, Merlin could be sure that this wisp of black smoke came from the fragment of the altar, and that White had left over from his black sorcery.

It's incredible.

"Look again, see and see."

Merlin was a little shaken, could it be that this Zhang is really a genius?
