Five days later, deep in the Von Enriso Mountains, the center of the northern continent.

The sky was covered with a year-round mist, and dozens of castles, large and small, were scattered all over the mountain, and some Gonzales could be faintly discerned from the sign at the entrance of the castle - the Ghost School Research Center was dangerously off-limits.

Each castle is a research group, such as the Christian Wizarding Research Group, the Grand Cochran Institute for Wizards, and the Brisse-Red Moon Theory Institute......

I saw a young man in a white dress, black hair parted, and gold-rimmed glasses, holding a black box to the door of the center, waiting quietly.

"Siegel bint?"

At this moment, a sound similar to the rotation and friction of gears sounded in his ears.

"It's me," the young man bowed his head slightly, and although there was nothing in front of him, he still behaved very decently, and bowed with a smile on his face, "I was sent by the Siegel newspaper to visit Dean Josue, and I have an appointment. ”

"Come in, Wraith 18 Wizard Research Group, Dean Josue is waiting for you there."

"Understood."

Siegel breathed a sigh of relief, although it was not the first time he had been here, he was still nervous in the face of these wizards who had been dealing with extraordinary characteristics such as undead, machines, flesh and blood, and red moons for many years.

He followed the sound and walked straight to the stone staircase on the left.

I have to say that most of the wizards of the ghost school are obsessive-compulsive.

The stone staircases and stone paths that surround all castles are symmetrical on both sides, regardless of the species, and the spirits will find a way to prune them the same.

For example, vines and thorn flowers, especially thorn flowers, have thin rhizomes, and in order to match the vines, these thorn flowers are woven together, the flowers are pruned, and then special potions are used to keep both sides of the same length, thickness, and length......

The same is true of those stone stairs, which are exactly the same in length and height, and even in some corners, the wizards have painstakingly set up rune circles, so that those who step on the stone stairs will not feel the deflection of the angle.

"Boom!"

Just as Siegel was crawling, a roar came from a castle not far away.

"Number 44, Christian's Wizard Research Group, had an accident and the Department of Rehabilitation went over to recover the body. Oh, is Wizard Christian okay? Then the Ministry of Renovation will withdraw it......"

Listening to the regretful tone in the sound of the gears turning and rubbing, Siegel's hand couldn't help but tremble, and he secretly cheered: The goal is not to die here, absolutely not!

It didn't take long for him to finally stand at the gate of Castle No. 18, take out a handkerchief from his bosom, wipe his sweat, straighten up his clothes, and with a smile on his face that he had practiced countless times, he stepped in.

I don't know what kind of person Dean Josue is, but I hope to communicate better than His Excellency the Great Wizard Sheldon in the apprenticeship management office before.

Well, steady, not dying is victory - all for the gold pound!

Siegel stood at the gate of the castle and waited for a moment before a young wizard in a black robe with messy hair walked out and glared at him with an unhappy face.

"Mentor Josue is waiting for you, come with me!"

"Thank you."

Seegal didn't show any displeasure, and respectfully followed him and walked inside.

The entire castle was similar to the layout of Castle 31 he had seen before, and there were dozens of undead of different shapes standing at the door, holding some bones to gnaw.

It is said that those bones were purchased from the world of the undead and were used to improve the strength of undead creatures.

And the one at the door is also called the undead storage place by the ghosts - well, store yourself and bring your own food, and the undead creatures are very satisfied.

Friendly place, right?

"Mentor Josue, the man you were waiting for has arrived." The young wizard led him to a spacious office in the depths of the castle and knocked on the door, "If you have no other orders, I'll go back and continue my unfinished research." ”

"Oh."

The dean Josué sat down in a large, high-backed chair with his back to the door, and without turning around, he stretched out a withered, bloodless arm and waved.

Seeing this, the young wizard quickly turned to leave, and before leaving, he did not forget to whisper: "Remember, you only have one hour." ”

An hour?

Enough is enough.

With a smile on his face, Siegel stood respectfully at the door, and said in a voice unhurriedly: "Dear Dean Josue, I am Siegel bint of the Siegel newspaper, and I take the liberty to disturb ......."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Dean Josue: "I would like to know the recent news about our wizard apprentice, well, wizard." ”

"What do you mean...... The aberrant wizard named Wayne? Siegel asked cautiously.

"Aberration wizards? Tsk, who allowed you to use such a title without permission, and put it on our Ghost School, the honorable honorary wizard? ”

"Rong, Honorary Wizard?"

Siegel was stunned for a moment, and his mind raced, "I'm sorry, I made a mistake. I'm going to tell you about the wizard of Wayne. ”

"Hmm." Dean Josue let out a nasal sound that seemed to be humming, apparently asking him to continue.

Siegel felt a little relieved, and hurriedly took out various newspapers and notes that had been prepared, and recited them one by one.

"First of all, the Official Gazette of the Kingdom of Châtland, which published the day before yesterday a report on the disaster that occurred in the city-state of Caster, and the whole kingdom mourned and expressed deep regret for the Count of Ernst who died in this incident."

"Condemn the Abyss Sect's vain attempt to summon a demon leader by sacrificing sacrifices in the city-state of Caster, but fortunately it was stopped by the Guardian Knight of the Dawn, thank Dawn."

"In order to ensure that the reconstruction of Custer is carried out in an orderly manner, the Crane side has sent a rescue team to Custer, and will cooperate with Bishop Nayik of the Storm Church to complete it as soon as possible."

"It is reported that Ales Coulibaly, the former director of the secretary of the city-state of Caster, faked his death and borrowed special items to resurrect...... During this period, a total of 120,000 people were killed, including 300 nobles, 3,000 Dawn believers, and the rest were residents of the city-state. ”

"Wayne Lovet, now identified as the intelligence officer of the Ghost Sect stationed in the city-state of Caster, the investigator of the Secret Investigation Division, and the owner of special items, is an aberrant wizard with amazing strength and a cruel personality......"

"Aberration wizard?" Dean Josue's cold voice rang out.

Siegel hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, it's the honorary wizard, in this incident, he killed tens of thousands of Vázquez warriors alone, as well as thousands of priests of the Church of the Dawn, and countless other casualties. ”

"There is also an announcement from the city-state of Custer that the Calamity Legend Ales and the Terrety, the honorary wizard of your school, Wayne, will be included in the permanent unwelcome list and the files of the two will be destroyed......"

At this point, Siegel paused, took out another briefing, and continued:

"In addition, according to the latest news, the Church of the Dawn has also urgently convened an archbishopric council in response to the terrible events that occurred in the city-state of Custer. It was decided to issue a continent-wide decree against the two dominant players, Calamity legend Ales Koulibaly and honorary wizard Wayne Loft! ”

"And the current Pope of the Church of the Dawn, St. Jobin XV, has publicly stated that he will never let go of anyone who harms the Dawn congregation."

"At the same time, the three Knights of Judgment at the headquarters of the Church of Dawn have also set out for Custer to track down and hunt down the two leaders of this incident."

"Finally, there is a piece of grapevine that St. Jobin XV in the Inquisition called the Church of the Storm a clown, the one behind the whole affair, and a thief who only does the trick......"

"In response, Lady Morion of the Storm Church scolded her mother......"

Squeak.

As the voice sounded, the chair turned, and Dean Josue chuckled, "Are you sure that Lady Morion scolded her mother?" ”

"Yes, sure...... Ah no, it's gossip, the kind of ...... that is hard to verify."

Siegel saw the appearance of this Dean Josue, and his heart was shocked, Archwizard of Skeletons?

Dean Josue was seen leaning back in the slightly wide chair, wearing a black robe with the black fire and red eyes on his chest embroidered on his chest representing the Ghost School.

But under the robe, his crystal clear white bone body only occupies a quarter of the area of the cushion, and his height should be less than one and a half meters tall.

"Well," Dean Josue nodded, his skull open, and the two rows of teeth opened and closed, "what do you want to ask?" ”

"Ask, oh," Siegel took out his pen and paper, prepared the notes, and then put on a confident expression, "May I ask Dean Josue, what do you think about what that wizard did?" ”

"Opinion?"

Dean Josue flicked his white bone nails and said coldly: "Wizard Wayne is a ghost core wizard, and he has been awarded the title of honorary wizard by the school yesterday, and enjoys the rights of a great wizard. ”

"And as far as I know, he was only forced to fight back, and it was the incompetence of the top brass of that city-state that caused this to happen...... Well, Wizard Wayne, also one of the victims! ”

Suffer, victim?

Siegel gritted his teeth and recorded his words, so many people died under the spell of that wizard, and they were still forced to do it, were they victims?

"Second question, may I ask Dean Josué, will the ghosts have a response to the wanted warrant of the Church of Dawn?"

"Cope?" Dean Josue snorted, "Whoever dares to want and harm the ghost of the Honorary Wizard will definitely pay for it!" ”

"Third ......"

Within ten minutes, Siegel was sweating profusely and put away the pen and paper.

In a nutshell, the Wraith is not afraid of anyone, will protect the Honorary Wizard of Wayne, and reserves the right to pursue those who hurt him.

"Well, I still have some time, can I visit your institute?"

Dean Josue's eyes flashed red, and he got up and floated in the air, flying out, "Let's go, it just so happens that I have to go over to check the progress of the research." ”

Siegel wiped his sweat and cheered secretly, it would be nice to be able to visit the research topic......

It's just that when he entered the internal research place, he found that the atmosphere inside was different from the serious, quiet, and meticulous research atmosphere he imagined, and all kinds of chaotic sounds were intertwined.

Either shrill or loud quarrels are endless—

"I think he's based on the runes of the corpse blast technique, plus the burst runes, and the blight ......"

"Hehe, you don't mean to say, add a few more powerful blights to the spell?"

"This is the best solution!"

", didn't you see that after more than ten explosions, the power of the corpse explosion technique doubled? The range in the back is larger, the power is stronger, and the epidemic triggers faster, how are you going to solve it?! ”

"Damn, this corpse blast technique...... I can't parse it, I'm such a waste! ”

“…… That flicker spell is elemental, how can there be a clone, and how can you cast a charm spell?! ”

"Your Excellency Wizard Wayne, what a genius he has not met in a hundred years, no, ten thousand years, his attainments in rune literature, I will not be able to catch up in my life...... Whining...... I want to transform into an undead, life is too short......"

"Don't you think the most important thing to study is the mechanical weapon in his hand? I bet there's a burst rune on it! ”

“…… I am willing to sacrifice Mentor Josuet's 100-year lifespan, just to let me decipher all the runes contained in that corpse explosion technique! ”

"Plus a thousand years!"

"10,000 Years ......"

"Get out!"

Dean Josue couldn't help but kick in the door and scolded: "Waste, idiot, give you two days, and you haven't made any progress at all, you are just a bunch of rice buckets......"

All the wizards who were discussing were silent and listened to his roar.

It's just that Siegel noticed that the wizards' voices had stopped, but their hands were still scratching their ears and cheeks, and they looked irritated.

“…… Listen to me, everyone is in the same mind, study that corpse explosion technique, and make sure to increase the power to the level of, well, close to the wizard of Wayne......"

"Damn, if you weren't so stupid......"

Tsk, if you can film this scene - it will be a hundred times better than the previous interview!

……

……

At the same time, the city-state of Custer.

After five days of cleanup, all the sacrifices were cleared with the help of the Storm Church Legion of the Clergy, and a funeral was held for them.

After the funeral, the survivors were all under the command of the Provisional City Guard and the Provisional Council to join in the reconstruction of the city-state.

The investigators of the Secret Investigation Division, under the leadership of Director Nifa, have always scrupulously fulfilled their duties as investigators.

"So, that's your choice?"

"Isn't it pretty?"

Marco looked down at the brand-new jacket on his body and said with a smile: "This is the same style as Blackjack, and I finally found someone to customize it." ”

“…… You also said, that's Black Jack, you? Lacey clasped her hands in her arms and said disdainfully.

"Hey, hey, Lacey, I'm no longer in the Secretarial Division, so you can't show mercy?"

"If you don't serve in the department, I can teach you a lesson at any time!"

Marco waved his hand helplessly, "Forget it, I can't say you, I can't beat you, but ...... Before I leave, I have one more thing I want to ask you for. ”

"Tell me about it."

"Help me think of a resounding name," said Marco distressedly, "I thought about it for two whole days, hesitating between the big handsome guy and the big handsome man. ”

“……”

A big smile appeared on Lacey's face, and she clenched her fists and shook it, "This is a problem you can't solve?" ”

Marco was excited and hurriedly jumped away, "No, I'm just joking with you, after all, if you go to sea, you may not be able to come back for a long time, and you may ......"

"Stop! There is no second possibility! ”

"Yes Yes ......"

"Red-haired, red-haired Marco, how's it going?"

"Redhead? No! Marco pouted, "When will I become the Emperor of the Sea, red-haired Marko?" It's not good, it's not ......."

"The Emperor of the Sea? Just you? Lacey snorted, "It's even more unreliable than me becoming the archon of the city-state of Custer." ”

"Archon? Yes, future Archon Rysie. ”

"Get out!"

"Haha, Lord Archon, you're blushing......"

Bang!

"Huh? Hurt! ”

“……”

The two fought for a while, and unconsciously watched each other fall silent.

"The ship is in a hurry, it's time for me to go...... Not?? ”

Lacey stepped forward and gave him a takedown, humming, "If you want to go, just remember that your hometown is in Custer!" ”

Marco sat up, the ponytail at the back of his head had been cut off, only a red hair was broken, and a bright smile appeared on his handsome face.

"I'll see you soon, I promise!"

As he spoke, Marco stepped forward and hugged her, "I have decided, I will call it a tyrant—one day, you will hear my name on the sea, Archon Lesie!" ”

"I'm waiting for that day......"

Lacey patted him the back.

"Gone!"

Marco turned around in style, "See you next time......"

Looking at his back as he left, Lacey's expression couldn't help but darken.

Thinking back to that night, it's like a dream that happened yesterday.

Wayne, Tina...... I hope you're all right too...... This is out of friend, last concern.

"See you next time......"

And what they didn't know was that not far from them, the same scene was happening.

"Are you sure you don't need me along?" Euan looked at Carly with resentment, as if her beloved little padded jacket had run away with someone.

"Hmm."

Carly nodded calmly, "This time I'll go to the Sanctuary of Dawn with Melbell, where I'll study for a while and hone myself, and then I'll travel to various places......"

"Actually, I didn't ...... with it"

"No need, father!"

Youan looked at her resolute appearance and said in a daze: "Okay, I won't follow you this time, but if you encounter difficulties, you must remember to send a message to me." ”

"Hmm."

After saying that, Carly turned around without hesitation, followed Melbel, who was guarding not far away, boarded a carriage with the logo of the Church of the Dawn, and galloped towards the east of the city-state.

Stay safe, Carly......

You stood quietly in place, looking at the vanishing carriage, his face became more and more hideous.

Is this the power of authority?

It's not just the power holder who has changed, but also the person who has a certain amount of weight in Carly's heart!

Damn, he'd forgotten so many things under the influence of that strange power.

Authority, authority - there must be a way to solve it!

"Doctor Morris, your Carly is gone, shouldn't we leave too?"

Euan heard this voice and nodded with a cold expression, "Take me to Captain Isabello, Blackjack." ”

"Of course, of course, if it weren't for you, I would have been drinking at Daddy's by now......"

……

……

On the other side, after Marco left, Lacey returned to the Secretarial Division.

"Sorry, I'm late."

"Captain Lesian, take your seat." Director Nefa nodded.

"Yes, Sir!"

"Go on, Balats."

Deputy Director Balatz glanced around, and continued, "There will be a two-month reconstruction of the city-state, and the Church of the Storm will prioritize building a lighthouse against the Red Moon......"

"At the same time, they will also relocate some believers from other city-states and start the reconstruction of a new church on the site of the former Krems Cathedral......

"And we, the Secret Investigation Division, also need to recruit new investigators......"

"Governor Lai Xi, your Investigation Department, personnel ......"

"Minister Sandiego, your warheads ......"

"That's all for today's meeting!"

After hearing this, Director Nefa looked at the two senior executives in red uniforms next to him with bright eyes, "Deputy Director Abbott, Deputy Director Yegor, please support the two of you as well." ”

"Yes, Director."

"Huh?" Yegor poked his head out from behind the newspaper in a daze, and spat out a smoke ring, "Don't ...... me"

Rumble!

A cold light swept by, and a two-handed axe slashed through the newspaper in his hand, straight between his legs.

"Deputy Director Yegor, what do you say you don't need?"

"The ...... of the Laissy Governor"

Yegor stared blankly at the axe so close to his legs, and the cigar in his mouth slowly slipped halfway, "...... Don't worry about it, I'll support you. ”

"That's good." Lacey retracted her axe, shook her head and sat down.

At this time, Deputy Director Balatz said lightly: "Damage to public property, Minister Laixi will be fined 20 gold pounds." ”

"What?!"

"Ha, hahaha......"

……

……

At the same time, in a small town in the northern part of the Eastern Continent.

Wayne looked at the snowflakes floating in front of him, clenched his hands into fists, gritted his teeth, and said, "You said before, where is the destination?" ”

"South, Southland......" Claire shrank her head, not daring to look at him.

"And now?"

"People don't know why it's going in the opposite direction, it's all the fault of the damn misty forest......"

"Admit it, you're a road idiot, aren't you?!"

"Don't be angry~"

PS: Volume 1, the end, this time it's real!

The second volume of the story will be updated tomorrow.,But it may be a little less.,I hope you continue to support it.。
