Chapter 326: Choices and "Daily"
"It's ...... Dolls? ”
Zheng Shu picked up the attacker's head and looked at it carefully, although it looked very realistic, but there was an obvious sense of falsehood, and the parts that emerged from the broken neck could also indicate that this was indeed a puppet made of magic.
It's no wonder that something was wrong when I was going to use suggestive magic, and of course a completely soulless thing like a puppet wouldn't be affected by magic.
Zheng Shu walked to the puppet's body again and examined it carefully, there was nothing too special about the other party's body, such as the puppet's spherical joints and other things were also obvious, but the head was indeed lifelike, and with the cover of the coat, it would look like a living human from a distance.
What's more special is probably the briefcase and coat on his body.
Needless to say, the briefcase is naturally the nest of the previous group of insects, and the special thing about the coat is that it is engraved with various magic spells, according to the magic knowledge that Zheng Shu has learned in recent years, the function of these spells is to be used as a transit station.
In other words, the real mastermind behind the scenes is remotely controlled from a further distance through this puppet as a signal relay.
"Acting so cautiously...... Someone who seems to know a lot about my information, is it from the Magicians Association? Or is it that the reason why he came over to assist the Araya Zonglian was originally a temptation of the Magicians Association. ”
Zheng Shu knows very well in his own heart, most of his information is actually quite closely protected, and basically everyone who knows his specific information has been killed by him.
However, there is one piece of information that is expected to be revealed in a long battle, and that is his ability to search for enemies.
The other party may not know what the specific principle of his search ability is, but he definitely knows that Zheng Shu has this special ability.
After all, every time Zheng Shu encounters an enemy, in order not to leak information about himself, in addition to the people who attack him on the frontal battlefield, he usually uses the blessing of the moon god to find logistics support personnel and kill them together.
Therefore, although all the people who came into direct contact with Zheng Shu were dead, these forces are estimated to be able to infer from Zheng Shu's killing efficiency that he has relevant abilities.
"It's really discreet, whether it's the dolls or the costumes on the body, all of them are made by different people." Zheng Shu took a closer look at the doll again.
In addition to the above-mentioned insurance, the puppet's internal self-destruction technique comes into play the moment its body is destroyed, using all remaining power to destroy the magic circuit and magic fluctuations.
Including the corpse of the group of insects next to it, it is estimated that the user manipulated the puppet to make it, so the only target that the moon god blessing can find is this puppet.
"It's really cautious, but it doesn't make much sense, after all, your technique is a bit too special, and the lion robs the world."
With a wave of magic power in his hand, the puppet's body and the two magic costumes were completely destroyed, and Zheng Shu quickly left here while no one found him.
Because Araya Zonglian's plan has been cracked by him, it is not him who really needs to be anxious now, but Araya Zonglian. He doesn't need to look for someone at all now, he just needs to wait quietly, and the enemy will be unable to help but send it to the door himself.
……
……
In a grave on the outskirts of the hospital, a brown-haired man wearing a black jacket, several fanny packs pinned to his waist, and carrying a suitcase in his hand, suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Monsters...... Is that guy really a magician, even a crown magician can't reach such a level, right?! And that girl......"
Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, the lion robbed the world of life and glanced at the cigarette that had been extinguished by blood in his mouth, and simply took it off and threw it on the ground.
Habitually stepping on the cigarette, the lion robbed the world as if he could not bear the injuries in his body at last, and sat down in front of a broken tombstone.
"Ahem, it's really a monster, it's obviously disconnected in time, is this guy's magic self-conscious?"
The Lion Tribulation Realm felt that the magic circuit in his body should have been damaged, and it would probably take a few months of recuperation to recover.
He also said that he couldn't understand this, he had obviously disconnected the magic connection in advance, but the weak force of the other party still caused damage to him along the almost non-existent connection.
No! It's not the opponent's power that causes damage to you, but the backlash caused by your own strength when you counterattack the opponent's power.
It sounds very strange, obviously because the rejection of external forces will cause the backlash of its own power, and the lion robbers can't figure it out, but it is true that such an unbelievable thing happened.
If Zheng Shu heard his question, he would definitely tell him very seriously that this was the power of divinity.
Although Zheng Shu's divinity itself is not offensive, after all, it is also a power beyond the imagination of ordinary people, and just a slight manipulation of the enemy's body is enough to seriously damage any magician to the ground.
"I just said that it must not be so easy for those old people to spend so much money on the work I did, and I would lose money now. Alas! If I hadn't been lucky, I wouldn't have had to take on this job. He took a few deep breaths and felt a little better.
The lion robbed the world and sighed helplessly, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional. He pulled a crumpled cigarette from his bosom, put it to his mouth, and pulled out a lighter to light it.
"Shhh...... Ahem, ahem! ”
The stimulation of the cigarette made the injuries in his body break out again, and the lion robbery couldn't help but cough up a few more mouthfuls of blood: "Forget it, anyway, I've already found out some of the information about that guy, and it's enough to make a deal, so in the future, I should reject all the commissions related to this guy......"
He took out an eyeball from his pocket, which was the information he had recorded on the battlefield, and after a little hesitation, the Lion Tribulation still chose to erase the information about the girl with the magic eye.
"Hey, I'm such a nice guy." Smiling self-deprecatingly, the Lion Tribulation took a second look at the information recorded by his eyeballs, and after making sure that nothing was missing, he put it back in his pocket.
In fact, the reason why the lion robbed the world to erase the information of Asakami Fujino was not because of kindness, but because of fear of death.
What kind of temperament those old things in the Magicians Guild are, but anyone who has been in the Magicians Guild knows it.
As long as such a powerful ability as Asakami Fujino is discovered, it will inevitably be designated by the seal, and then there will be a bunch of people who will come to look for trouble.
The lion robbery realm is not stupid, and after taking the task about Zheng Shu, it is natural to carefully investigate his relevant information.
And all the intelligence of Zheng Shu before, the clock tower itself had no intention of concealing it, so he naturally knew how strong Zheng Shu's strength was.
It was a monster that broke into the clock tower alone, pinched nearly half of the magicians in the entire clock tower to death, and then escaped with its whole body, and it is said that the Hosei Division, which was used to maintain order in the clock tower, was even killed to the point that only two or three big cats and kittens were left.
You must know that before this, the Law and Political Department of the Clock Tower was the same as the executors of the Templar Church, they were notorious executioners, powerful and had a large amount of magical costume support, specializing in dealing with those who dared to disobey the Magician Guild.
If ordinary magicians are targeted, even magician families that have been inherited for hundreds of years will be uprooted.
And such a terrorist and violent organization was single-handedly slaughtered by this person.
In addition to this, the Lion Raider also learned through the grapevine that the executors of the Templar Church also seemed to have suffered heavy losses in the following period.
Although it was not revealed who the enemy was, it could be seen from the subsequent personnel movements of the Templar Church that the main loss of forces was in the area where Zheng Shu had originally appeared.
In this area, there are ruthless people who can make such a large group of church executors disappear silently, and Zheng Shu is basically the only one with this strength.
Having provoked the two strongest forces in the magic world in a row, and making these two forces suffer a big loss, they were also alive and kicking at the same time, and the Lion Tribulation Realm didn't feel that his small life was as hard as the life of the executor of the Templar Church.
Judging from the reaction speed of the other party just now, he does have a rather terrifying search ability.
is ridiculously strong and good at searching, and the lion robbers feel that they haven't lived enough.
And judging from the surveillance footage just now, the girl named Asakami Fujino and Zheng Shu should have a good relationship.
The Lion Tribulation Realm doesn't bother to care whether the relationship between these two people is a master and apprentice or a lover, anyway, no matter which one of them, he can basically ensure that if the other party is sealed, there will be no problems in the end.
Magicians have a strange sense of morality, and they will see their disciples or family as their doppelgangers.
Therefore, some magicians who are cold by nature will even conduct experiments directly on their own disciples or family members, because for them it is not much different from conducting experiments on themselves.
Similarly, once a disciple or family is violated, their counterattack methods will be quite terrifying.
Sending back the information of this guy Zheng Shu is completing the commission, and the other party will not find his head if he looks for the initiator.
But if the girl's information is leaked, although it is possible to get additional commissions, but in this way, he basically offends Zheng Shu to death.
When the time comes, the Magicians Guild and the Templar Church will not die with their own heritage, but he, the guy who dares to leak the information, will definitely die.
This kind of thing that is not at the same level of benefit and danger is something that a normal magician would not choose to do.
So for the sake of his own life, the lion robbery world is still very careful to erase the information about Asagami Fujino.
"Anyway, this guy can do the same damage, so let's just push all of this little girl's abilities onto this guy." The Lion Tribulation Realm looked at the eyeballs in his hands with satisfaction, "With such an extra heavyweight piece of information, we should be able to blow up more good things from that old guy's hands." ”
Throwing away the cigarette that had burned out in his other hand, the lion robbed the world with great difficulty, and climbed up with difficulty on the broken tombstone, and limped out of here.
"What a monster...... After I go back and recuperate, I'll choose a task that suits me better......"
……
……
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is already the hottest time of summer.
The dazzling sunlight makes it impossible to open your eyes, and verdant greenery flows from the park. The sun shines brightly, enveloping the world of high-rise buildings in the sweltering heat, and today's temperature has reached its highest temperature since the beginning of summer, and comfort has entered its lowest point.
Such hot temperatures are stripping passers-by of their stuff, in addition to the obvious moisture, but also calmness, patience and spirit.
It was past twelve o'clock, but the sun was still hanging high in the sky, and the thought of such heat continuing into the evening would make anyone want to escape the heat in an air-conditioned room.
But in such a situation, Zheng Shu followed Cangqi Orange to stand outdoors.
"I said, do you have to let me come to an event like this? You should be able to handle it on your own, right? And if I'm not mistaken, I'm supposed to be your guest, why do you want to do the job of an employee now? Zheng Shu stared blankly at the sun overhead.
With his strength, this little change in temperature will not have much effect, and the reason why he is impatient is entirely because the guy on the stage in front of him has been speaking for too long.
Obviously, his body was soaked with sweat, but there was no sign of his mouth stopping...... It seems that no matter what country you are in, people at the top like to talk at length.
"There's no way, my member is dating another new member, it's also a building designed by our company, if only I come out alone, I will definitely be looked down upon." Aozaki Orange looked relaxed.
"And haven't you been learning my puppet technique? Although I didn't explicitly accept you as an apprentice, in the magic world, I am willing to teach you this kind of skill at the bottom of the box is already a master-apprentice relationship, and as an apprentice, it is only natural to help the master share a little bit of the problem. ”
Zheng Shu could feel the slight magic fluctuations emanating from him, and it seemed that this guy had used some kind of magic costume to lower the temperature around his body.
They are now at the inauguration of a high-end hotel, and the entire building of the hotel was designed by Orange alone.
Probably because of the magic eye, in terms of "construction", Aozaki Orange has an extraordinary talent.
Therefore, even though her office is quite difficult to find, she has slowly opened up the market in Guanbuzi City.
And for magicians, worldly money also plays a considerable role, after all, most of the alchemy materials can actually be collected in the world.
What's more, the guy Orange also likes to buy things that are completely useless and just look invisible, so the firm's funds have been stretched thin, and even often deduct employees' salaries.
Even Zheng Shu couldn't stand it several times, so he had to lend Hei Tong Kanya, a poor child, a little money for him to use as living expenses.
Of course, the expression that Hei Tong Ganye, a calm and warm man, shows every time he receives support from Zheng Shu's living expenses, is also one of the reasons why Zheng Shu is willing to lend him money.
In a sense, it can be regarded as spending money to have fun.
Even Zheng Shu sometimes suspects that the reason why Aozaki Orange often doesn't pay Kurokuri's salary is also to see his expression.
Glancing at the customized suit on his body that was bulging with muscles, and then at the guests around him who were still afraid to approach him even in such a situation, Zheng Shu sighed helplessly.
The reason why he agreed to come over was because he heard that there was a commemorative party, after all, it was quite tiring to stay at home and study at the office every day, so it was good to find a chance to relax.
But I didn't expect that there would be such a tirade before the party started.
"How do I remember the opportunity I bought with Saint Quartz."
"Humph! That's called the Apprenticeship! Aozaki Orange looked up with a smug expression.
"Alas!" Zheng Shu sighed helplessly again, but did not refute anything.
Actually, Aozaki Orange is right, although there is a transactional relationship between the two parties, but teaching is such a thing, even if the content of the teaching is the same, but according to the moral level of the instructor, it can still teach different things.
Obviously, Aozaki Orange is a person with a good moral level. Not only did he do his best to help Zheng Shu carefully guide all kinds of problems, but also compiled his lifelong learning into a book.
Although it is not clearly stated, the identity between the two can indeed be regarded as master and apprentice.
The two of them then stood there and waited for a long time.
Zheng Shu was even so bored that he closed his eyes and calculated in his mind the procedures that he hadn't completed before. And although Aozaki Orange still seems to be standing in place very calmly, Zheng Shu is probably calculating something in her mind according to the fluctuation of the magic power she perceives.
Finally, it was the midsummer sunshine that made the greatest contribution, and the old man standing on the stage couldn't bear the increasingly hot weather, and finally had to regretfully end his speech early and announce the beginning of the banquet party.
So everyone ran to the banquet hall on the first floor, which was full of air-conditioning, and among them, an unknown crown magician and a certain heroic spirit ran the fastest.
In a sense, Aozaki Orange and Zheng Shu are actually the same type of people, under normal circumstances, they both like to squat in a corner to study their knowledge, and when their brains are a little tired and want to relax, they will generally choose a place similar to a banquet to eat for free.
It's not that they lack money for one or two meals, with the current net worth of the two of them, even if they eat the best food every day, it is more than enough.
The reason why the two like to relax in this way is mainly to experience the pleasure of getting something for nothing, and in fact, without a banquet, a trip to the cafeteria can achieve similar results.
"So, how long are you going to teach that little girl? Judging by the way you look, you probably won't be in this city for too long. Aozaki Orange stuffed a piece of steak and said vaguely.
Obviously, the eating speed is about the same as Zheng Shu, but she looks extremely elegant, and she is not even very noticeable.
"Fujino's magic eye is too rare, no matter how much you cover it up, it will definitely be discovered in the end, and when the time comes, it will definitely be sealed by the group of old guys who are not afraid of death in the Magicians Association. She is half my apprentice at best, so I naturally taught her until she was able to deal with such a situation. Zheng Shu was like a bottomless pit, constantly eating all kinds of ingredients at the banquet.
Anyway, with his current servant body, there is no such thing as being full, and all the food that is eaten into his body will be converted into magic power and stored in the next instant.
"Ah...... 'dealing with such a situation' is easy to hear, but ordinary people don't dare to say that except for monsters like you."
"Fujino has such a talent, if you really fight, you are not necessarily her opponent now. With the deepening of her study of magic, she has recently been able to distort the technique. ”
"What? Wait, wait, did I hear something wrong, what terrible thing did you unknowing?! Aozaki Orange was so surprised that she forgot to eat.
Zheng Shu glanced at her and didn't speak, but continued to eat Haisai.
Fortunately, the worship of foreign countries in Japan at this time was quite serious, so the banquet was basically a Western-style food similar to steak pasta, which was placed in Japan at a later point in time, and it is estimated that there would be no cooked things on this table.
So for Zheng Shu, he was quite satisfied with this meal.
"Huh?" Suddenly, Zheng Shu stopped what he was doing and frowned.
"What's wrong?" After seeing Zheng Shu's movements, Aozaki Orange immediately became vigilant, and the magic dress she carried with her was also in a state of activation at any time.
I don't dare to say anything else, but she is quite recognized by Zheng Shu's strength, and being able to make him show such an expression means that something must have happened.
"I think I heard something...... It's on the top floor, I'll go up and check it out, and you should pay attention to the bottom and do a good job. Zheng Shu gave a slight command and left the banquet.
It's also a little strange to say, obviously his size is so eye-catching, but when he leaves, he seems a little silent, and most people don't even notice that there is a sudden lack of one person in the venue.
"The top floor? The hotel we are in is more than 20 stories high, can you hear it? The corners of Aozaki Orange's mouth twitched slightly.
Looking at Zheng Shu's figure leaving without anyone noticing, he couldn't help but nod with emotion, and even a little smug in his tone: "It is worthy of being a student taught by me, which implies that the use of magic is like art." ”
(PS: Tomorrow will continue to add more, the realm of the void is almost over, I want to think about the five wars, and prepare for the whole big job.) )
