Chapter 461: Ruins 8

There are a total of nine members of the expert group, including Liu Li, who will give the final expert review opinion on the safety of the mind mage Luo Qi. Nine chairs were placed at the front for them, and now sat eight members, each over a century old. Peng Xiaopeng, who is from the Fan Ya family, sat on the chair in the second row, and his original position is now sitting ** Fan Ning. After Peng Xiaopeng had enough of the insult a few days ago, he couldn't resist the pressure, and Fan Ya had to send a more senior figure, his younger brother Fan Ning.

Du Zhengyi, who asked the question, stood between them and Liu Li, with his back to the expert group. Someone coughed, trying to remind him of the problem between status and rules. But he didn't look back, let alone regress, and he wasn't disturbed in his momentum, as if the expert group didn't exist at all.

Liu Li's sharp gaze swept over everyone in front of him, and suddenly stared at Zhou Quan sharply.

Zhou Quan was slightly taken aback, then reacted and understood what Liu Li meant. He immediately explained to Du Zhengyi what had just happened in the sandbox at the fastest speed and before someone could interrupt him.

Liu Li gave him a satisfied glance, he breathed a sigh of relief, swallowed slightly, and his gaze was biased towards Du Zhengyi again. He knew that Liu Li was trying her best to control the development of the situation and ease the conflict between all parties, but it was uncertain whether she could control the development of the situation, and he was quite curious about the direction of the situation.

It all depends on Du Zhengyi! Zhou Quan shuddered for a moment, and suddenly wondered why he thought so. The members of the investigation team have nine old immortals, with deep seniority, complex backgrounds, and monstrous power, and Du Zhengyi ...... It's just Du Zhengyi at the moment. He didn't think that Pei Shu would be desperate to help Luo Qi in this matter. Will he? He won't, Zhou Quan replied to himself with confidence, there is only Du Zhengyi here.

Zhou Quan observed Du Zhengyi with interest, and the young man did not have any reaction on his face after listening to his report. He turned to Liu Li, and Zhou Quan could only see half of the man's face in the dim light, the face that looked like a statue was emotionless and unassailable. He spoke, and his voice was one of the arrogance and impatience that Qionglin had long been accustomed to, "So the test has failed. Now you should stop the test immediately and open the sandbox. ”

Liu Li didn't say anything for a while, she pursed her lower lip tightly in embarrassment. Du Zhengyi is also her favorite student, although she is strict, she has always been protective. Du Zhengyi has always been her doting eldest son, and she doesn't think he is offended by talking like this, but others don't have to bear it like this, and one person stood up in the chair of the expert group, and then two more people stood up. However, the latter two seemed to be just uneasy by the interruption of the magic image, and even took a few steps back invisibly after getting up, subtly widening the distance. Zhou Quan saw all of this in his eyes.

At that moment, the first man to stand up spoke. "You don't have the right to point fingers here, kid!" The person who spoke spat out the word "child" very heavily.

Du Zhengyi turned his head to look at the person he was talking to, with white hair, a round face, light brown eyes, and a thick skeleton. Du Zhengyi knew who he was. Although he is not at all like Fan Ya, he is indeed Fan Ya's younger brother. It's just that he's half-brother, he's more like his mother who lives on the grassland, and his mother has a good reputation among the mages of that generation. Fan Ning's appearance is more rugged, and because of this roughness, he has a little less Fan Ya's femininity, his dignity is the style of the grassland aristocracy, and there are more proud ingredients in the formula.

"Kid?" Du Zhengyi's voice strangely repeated the word he had just heard. Zhou Quan almost laughed out loud, he didn't know that Du Zhengyi could insult people so bitterly, his expressionless face was now accurately filled with pity and surprise, as if he was looking at an ignorant elementary school student. "If you still respect the mage's bloodline, it would be too rude for you to speak like that. I vaguely remember that you were my cousin, but your mother's bloodline was so far away from me, and you didn't know who you were talking to because of that? ”

Someone really let out a laugh, it was the battle mage in the chair, the only battle mage representative.

Fan Ning was taken aback at first, then angry, but immediately fell into hesitation, this young man named Du Zhengyi was too domineering, but the female venerable behind him did not interfere with him. Even, just as Fanning looked over in annoyance and protested with her gaze, she actually avoided her gaze. It was a heavy blow to him, and he was shocked to realize that it meant that the young mage was not spewing out wild words, and that was the truth, no matter why his rank was so outrageous. Maybe their family has been old for generations, and his surname is Du, and he can only come from the twelve families of the mage. In the most orthodox mage society, even if this surname is almost extinct, it is much more precious than his Fan surname. This may not be a big deal in the outer mage society, but these are still very important in the core mage circle, his ancestor had married the Du family, and it was a great honor when he was still young. He was very humiliated, and he opened his mouth for a while, and Du Zhengyi turned his head and continued to speak at this moment.

"I don't know why you haven't stopped testing, since there's no way to fix it, you won't know what's going on inside, and there won't be any more test results. So now, stop testing now. ”

Fan Ning hurriedly followed his words, he had planned to be able to blow him away directly, but now to face the reality, he had to argue with this young man. "I think it's better not to do this, we may never find such a good opportunity to test the safety of Mage Roach again. If he gave up this test now, Mage Roach would once again be unable to gain the trust of Jonlin, and perhaps the opportunity for trust would never be the same again. That will be of no benefit to anyone, and we will always be suspicious of this excellent mage, and he will spend countless energy trying to prove his innocence, which will be an endless nightmare for him. ”

Du Zheng tilted his head to the side and turned to him slightly, as if he was a little surprised that he could say so reasonably. "Master Fan, that's the only reason why I'd agree to let him be tested." His face turned cold again, and he said coldly, "But, you guys screwed up. ”

"You agree?" Another mage stood up from his chair, and Du Zhengyi didn't know him. He was a short man, of course, a little taller than Roach. But Roach still has a long hope, and this person who has lived for a hundred years will definitely have little chance. "As far as I know, Roach and you have only known each other for two months. What magical pact did you provide to force the Supreme Council to ask for your consent? Or is Roach actually in control of you? ”

"Master Xu Hong, it is impossible for Du Zhengyi to be controlled by Luo Qi, I thought I had already explained it to you. In fact, with Roach's current level of skill, he can't even control an ordinary battle mage. I don't think there's any need to talk about it anymore. Liu Li said in a tone that could not be questioned, and the mage nodded to Liu Li stiffly, and sat down again in a huff.

She sighed and turned to Du Zhengyi, "But I also want you to consider what Master Fanning said, he has a point. Roach had to be put to the test, but since we couldn't see what was going on inside, I thought it should be shortened to forty-eight hours. ”

"Twenty-four hours." Du Zhengyi said in a deep voice.

Liu Li hesitated for a moment, turned to Fan Ning, and said with a slight pleading. "We also have a mage in there, and I hope to consider her personal safety."

Fanning hesitated, "One of the most important things to test the Mind Mage is the ability to withstand mental stress for a long time, even forty-eight hours is already a short time. Perhaps we could consider opening the sandbox every twelve hours and sending someone inside to inspect what's going on, while keeping the original length of time the same. ”

"Fanning, you should know that the sandbox cannot be opened at will, every time it is opened, it will affect the closed magic space inside, and frequent opening may change the rules of the sandbox. Even if it is only a slight change in conditions, it is not sure what kind of stimulation will be caused to the creatures inside, and it is entirely possible that the situation will exceed Roach's ability to control, which will be a huge loss for the entire mage society. Liu Li said.

As soon as her words fell, Du Zhengyi suddenly said, "Twelve hours later, I will go in and evaluate." If I think the tests should be terminated, I'll bring them out. The test must be over forty-eight hours at the latest, or I'll apply for mage refuge in the Highlands on behalf of Roach. ”

"You're betrayal!" The mage shouted angrily.

Du Zhengyi turned his head and said calmly. "You can go and tell the Highland Mages that if anyone asks for refuge from the Highland Mage, they are betraying Jonlin. I promise that when your life is threatened with unreasonable conditions, you will have the only way to kill yourself. ”

"Is the threat coming from you?" The old mage said indignantly.

Du Zhengyi looked at him quietly, "Whatever you want to understand." ”

"Shut up." Master Liu Li shouted, not only for Du Zhengyi, she took out the identity of the Venerable Mage, and her eyes swept sharply from Du Zhengyi to the senior mage who was sitting. "Master Xu, you should understand the delicate balance between us and the highland mages, do you really want to create a diplomatic crisis on their turf?"

"But......," he said, he was already a little nervous, regretting his rash mistake.

Zhou Quan suddenly smiled beside him and said, "Master Xu is just used to saying such things in Qionglin, we are all here, and it was not a big deal." Who would have thought that one day we would be exiled to the realm of the highland mages, hehe......"

"Shut your mouth Zhou Quan, we are not exiles." Liu Li said angrily, "Let's just decide, open the sandbox once in twelve hours." However, Du Zhengyi, you can't just go in, there will be other battle mages, in addition to this, I will also let the experimental mages go in and install new monitoring nodes. Wei Zhen, you are responsible for finding the most remote and ancient communication magic, and you must ensure that Liu Ziyu does not know. I didn't allow anyone to argue with me anymore, so it was decided. ”

Her gaze particularly swept to Du Zhengyi, Du Zhengyi raised his head, his gaze did not meet with anyone, and this time no one refuted Venerable Mage.
