15. Enter Burketown
What is the key to this, it is actually a matter of the view of the world, although Wang Qinian seems to be a person from this world, but he is not, the people of this world world unconsciously have a thought that sneaks into their hearts, especially the magician, that is, the elemental god, whether it is the elemental angel, they think that the elemental god controls the element, and others borrow the element, in fact, they get the consent of the elemental god, and they are in awe of the elemental god, and people are different from the gods, especially this kind of natural god, which is the embodiment of the will of the elements, and people can only use it, and can never really control this element, this idea goes deep into the subconscious。
And Wang Qinian didn't have this idea at all in his heart, Wang Qinian didn't take Hadir seriously at all, he dared to replace Hadir with Black Lotus, and in his heart he had actually put himself in an equal position with Hadir, and even trampled Hadir under his feet, he dared to challenge the theory of the elements, and in his mind he thought that the elements were just a kind of illusion, and there must be a deeper reason.
This point is different, a earth-shaking step has been taken, Wang Qinian did not think about it, and similarly, the magicians of this world world did not think about it, in the ancient period of magic, where did the elements come from?
It was only in the classical period that the elements of magic matured, but they constrained the development of magic.
Wang Qinian sank into the depths of his soul, unconsciously forgetting things and me, the illusion of the world began to collapse, all this was realized in the spiritual sea, Wang Qinian showed consciousness and did not know the way, after a long time, he opened his eyes, and felt that he was a little different, but where the difference was, but he couldn't say.
Wang Qinian looked at the magic clock, and four hours had passed. Magic clocks are not popular, in fact, among ordinary people, there are already mechanical clocks, but magic clocks are more accurate in time, and more convenient for magicians.
Wang Qinian lay down, still began to do his homework every day, and began to recall the gains and losses of the day, which made him more mature in thinking about things.
At dawn, Wang Qinian got up. He washed up. After breakfast, Jessica had arrived, and he was ready, with a cane in his hand. Come to the school gate.
Jessica wondered if he was holding a cane at all times. Thought it was his quirk. Without much thought, there was a carriage parked at the door, one of those four-wheeled carriages drawn by two horses. There is no coachman, but it is not a horse that pulls the cart, but a nightmare, which is a monster with the same name as a unicorn, and can even be called a divine beast, with a very high intelligence, with two nightmares to pull the cart, there is no need for a coachman at all, as long as you say it, it will not be wrong.
Two senior students are already here, they are already magicians, both of them are level five, one is the wind department, the other is the water department, Otrando did not come, but he came to the school security officer, and he handed over a document to Wang Qinian.
Wang Qinian and the others got on the car, the carriage started automatically, walking unhurriedly, the carriage was very balanced, Wang Qinian asked the names of the two students, James of the wind system and Peter of the water system, the two of them were also very curious about Wang Qinian, knowing that he was a necromancer, and Jessica was a seventh-level spiritual mage, very strange, she did not belong to any elemental system, she was very rare in this category, and was not proficient in general elemental magic, but was very proficient in curses and contracts, and was a good summoner.
Wang Qinian looked carefully at the information in his hand in the car, and after reading it, he recalled it in his mind, handed the information to Jessica, Jessica roughly flipped through it, and handed it to the two students, who read it very carefully and read it for a long time.
"What do you think?" asked Wang Qinian.
"There are a total of six people in the collection team, and their strength is above level six, although their disappearance cannot be seen to be related to the devil's belief, but the timing is too coincidental, but there is no evidence, the devil's belief is very special, a few months ago, no one knew about the Dao, just in the past few months, there have been many people who know the Dao, even the druids have someone in it, I'm afraid it's not simple. Jessica said.
Although Jessica only took a rough look at it, she generally understood it, Wang Qinian always felt that this matter was more strange, he already knew something about Omani, and felt an inexplicable connection, which seemed to be related to him, and Otrando handed over this matter to him, I am afraid that he also felt something.
"The collection team didn't even send a signal, but they approached the druid's base camp, and the druid members actually found devil worshippers, and the conflict with the druids, but unfortunately there was no living mouth, Professor Jessica has a point, the devil worship party is very secret, how should we investigate?" Wang Qinian asked.
"Teacher, judging from the information, it was first discovered in a forest ranger's hut in the town of Berke in Granville, although it was found afterwards, but there were two people at the scene as sacrifices, sacrificed to the devil, and the druid checked afterwards, the victim was less than twenty years old, a man and a woman, the chest and back were painted with pentagram and magic patterns, the soul has disappeared, it is estimated that it was taken by the devil, we are not directly there. James said.
"I agree with James's words, start with the town of Burke. The other two also agreed, and Wang Qinian nodded and said, "Then we will start the investigation from Berke Town." ”
The town of Burke is geographically more partial, but it is more lively, all kinds of adventurers have become a beautiful scenery in the local area, and it is also more chaotic, because it is close to the Gale Mountains, when the founding bishop and the Druids fought fiercely in the Gale Mountains, it was a place where the battle was extremely fierce, because the two sides worked hard to summon otherworldly creatures to join the battle, so that later, various spatial projections were intertwined with each other, and as a result, the space has not returned to normal until now, walking in the mountains, no one can tell when there will be cracks in the space, and even alien space creatures will smash on the head.
So at this time, all kinds of strange creatures appear, and sometimes they will break into the bottom of the mountain, in the mountains of nearly a thousand miles, no one can figure out what will appear, adventurers flock to it, hoping to get rich, and there is no need to worry about the resources being exploited, because these creatures are from another space.
However, there are always a small number of people who make a fortune, most of them are missing in the mountains, I don't know whether they are buried in the belly of the beast, or they strayed into a different space and never came back, the town of Burke is also in chaos, adventurers have been here for many years, although there is a local government, but the adventurers are mixed, and there have even been officials who killed the local authorities, plus it belongs to the edge of the Druid autonomous region, in a word, in the local area, no one listens to the words of the government, and the officials are used to this, and it is only reflected in the collection of taxes, which is not useful at all.
But the local area is not without order, the local aboriginal formation of the gang Berke Defenders and the long-standing adventurers to form the gang Gael's enterprising group, and a few druids to form the order, these three factions dominate, forming the underground three forces, and there are no less than ten other gangs, and they have reached a delicate balance and formed a unique order.
Wang Qinian and the other four people went to such a place, this place is suitable for the devil's belief place, Wang Qinian thought, put down the information in his hand, and the collection team disappeared in this place, originally came here, it is not the first time to come, after all, Huo Linqiaoton's reputation is there, under normal circumstances, the gangsters do not want to provoke, this time, because I heard that there are a batch of good materials, mainly the body parts of otherworldly animals, and even gems that are said to be formed by the tears of fallen angels, but there is no news as soon as they go.
The four of them looked at the bilateral buildings through the curtains, there was no planning on both sides of the street, the road was also bumpy, and many of the houses were like the illegal buildings in Wang Qi's previous life, showing all kinds of strange shapes, some were built between the two buildings, some simply added another layer on the top floor, and some were domineering and prominent, in short, there was no planning at all, and the street was not like a street at all, but like the intestines of a full sarcoma.
As soon as Wang Qinian's carriage of four people entered Burke Town, it immediately absorbed the attention of passers-by, for others, the carriage was too arrogant, the carriage was pulled by two nightmares, tall and majestic, and no one drove, behind it was a huge four-wheeled carriage, the body of the car was luxurious and unassuming, the carriage was full of ancient patterns, and those who knew the goods saw that this was a magic pattern, layer upon layer, covering the carriage, in the carriage, the temperature adjustment array was spitting out a trace of coolness, the slight cool breeze was very weak, almost unable to blow the hair of the people inside, but it kept the most comfortable temperature of the human body in the carriage, in the experience of Wang Qi's previous life, about 20 degrees Celsius。
There are curtains on the windows on both sides, you can see the outside from the inside, but you can't see the inside from the outside, such a carriage appeared, shocking passers-by, who is this person, if it is a big person, how can there be no one who even drives, if it is not a big person, but it is a nightmare pull car, the vehicle looks luxurious.
For a while, everyone fell into all kinds of conjectures, looking at the carriage in their eyes, revealing all kinds of emotions, and in many eyes, revealing a kind of eagerness, a kind of greed, of course the people in the carriage saw it, but they did not take it seriously.
The carriage was still walking unhurriedly, and no one who did not open his eyes stepped forward to stop him, and in this town, if anyone did not open his eyes, it was estimated that he would have already become a corpse, and even if he made up his mind, he would not be in broad daylight.
The carriage turned into a wide fork in the road, stopped in front of an inconspicuous triangular spire building, but there were no buildings around, this is the stronghold of Huolin Qiaoton in this town, because of the importance of the Gale Mountains, Huolin Qiaoton has long set up a point here, because of the name of Huolin Qiaoton, no one can not get along with it, and here, Wang Qinian felt that everything was back to normal, there were no kinds of buildings that did not follow the rules, and it was rare to maintain a pure land.
Wang Qinian got out of the car, and someone greeted him: "Welcome, Mr. and Ms. from my alma mater, I am James and I am based in Burke Town, please." ”
He was very handsome, middle-aged, and had come to Burketown a long time ago, and he was leading the way, and a servant led the carriage into the manger, and Wang Qinian and the four of them followed James into the living room. (To be continued......)
