Chapter 42: Do You Know Who Your Son Messed With?
"The Royal Academy of Magic is locked down!"
An exclamation came from nowhere, causing the students in the academy to fall into a panic.
Several students couldn't believe it and dragged their bodies to the school gate.
The door can be opened, but a barrier separates the outside world.
No matter how the students flapped, the barrier did not move.
The sudden appearance of a black barrier in the sky above the academy spread throughout the entire royal capital at a very fast speed, and its influence was extraordinary.
Countless newspaper reporters and mages gathered in front of the barrier.
The black barrier emits a hint of black aura, which seems to dye half of the sky black.
The countless lines on it are complex and exquisite, covering all directions.
The inside of the barrier seems to be filled with filth and darkness, constantly eating away at people's energy.
The darkness swallowed everything up, leaving only the sound of panic inside and outside the barrier, with a distinctly strong sense of weakness.
"What the hell is this?"
"Such a subtle circle...... What kind of formation is this? ”
Numerous headlines have been reported, all without exception, related to the Black Barrier enveloping the Royal Academy.
What's more, rumors have been spread that this matter has something to do with Victor.
Although the academy is completely cordoned off by a barrier, it is impossible to communicate inside and outside.
But before the lockdown, there were rumors that Victor had kidnapped and deliberately murdered Professor Devon.
The news soon spread to the Du Chloe family.
Erica was very confused when she heard about it, obviously Tsunade heard from Hernie yesterday that Victor was not in the academy, why did such a big thing happen today?
What's more, word came out that Victor had been at the academy yesterday against Devin Reeser.
This is very different from what Hernie said.
"What the hell is going on?"
"Did Hernie deliberately hide it? Could she be the one in the know? ”
The more Erica thought about it, the more confused she became, and now she just wanted to see for herself what was going on.
But she can't be so reckless, and the top priority is to make sure that her father knows about it.
She hopes that her father can help Victor in this matter and suppress the impact of this matter!
Because Victor really made a big mistake this time!
Who is Devin Reiser? This matter is known to very few people even in aristocratic circles.
The Rayser family had a great deal of influence in the south, and they took over almost all of the business in the southern part of the empire.
The family had a strong ability to amass wealth, and those with high authority like the Du Chloe family understood the significance of the Lesser family to the entire royal family.
That was the main source of the royal economy.
More than half of the money in the treasury every year will be spent to the Reeser family, and then the Reeser family will give more feedback every year.
In other words, all the businesses developed by the Reeser family in the south were all acquiesced in by the royal family.
Because the Reeser family is the royal family, the emperor's sister, and married to the Reeser family.
The royal family gave the Rayser family privileges, and the Rayser family gave back the royal money.
A win-win for both sides.
Erica doesn't know why Victor is attacking Devin Rayser, but she understands politics.
As the only daughter of the duke, her father has always groomed her as a successor.
Whatever Viktor's motives, it is already a fact that he hurt Devin Reeser.
If you want to keep Victor, you have to ......
Before the barrier of the academy is broken, don't let this matter get into trouble in front of the emperor.
"Someone who can get the emperor to come forward in advance, and who has such a motive and identity......"
"Lady Kasanna!"
Kasanna Reesser, who changed her surname due to her marriage to the head of the Reeser family, was the emperor's sister until then.
Although the Lesser family had a lot of business to do every year, the lady was not in business and lived in a city not far from the king.
If you received the message yesterday, calculate the time to rush.
"She will be able to reach the royal capital today and meet Your Majesty!"
Thinking of this, Erica immediately set off to find the Duke of Rivi, but the maid saw her with a heavy face and was in a hurry, and stopped her.
"Miss, don't be in a hurry."
"When the Duke left this morning, he asked me to inform you, and if you want to go out to find him, let me tell you that he is outside the city gates."
"Outside the city gates?"
Erica was stunned, a little puzzled.
What was my father doing outside the city ahead of time?
Don't...... He already knew?
She was in a nervous mood now, and at this moment, it was as if she was the only one who was kept in the dark.
Erica wanted to know something, and she suddenly thought of someone.
People who are related to this matter and may have deliberately concealed it.
Only Hernie!
"She must know something!"
Erica thought to herself, and hurriedly said to the maid:
"Prepare the carriage! Be fast! I'm going to the back hill of the academy right away! ”
She remembered the place she had talked to Hennie yesterday.
Erica had told Hernie that she would be over the next day.
If Hernie hadn't broken her promise, the other party would have been waiting for her in the mountain behind the academy.
Victor really wanted to do something to lock down the academy, and he wouldn't let Hernie lock it down with him.
"Damn! What exactly is his motive? ”
Erica clenched her fists and bit her lip.
She couldn't figure it out, and she couldn't find out for herself.
She hated the feeling of powerlessness.
It's like that time on a volcano.
.......
At the same time, outside the city gates.
Duke Levi stood at the gates of the city, hundreds of knights in silver armor stood behind him, and dozens of people wearing hoods and holding magic balls like mages were beside him.
A strong sense of danger pervades the city gates, as if war is coming.
Soon, a number of guards arrived with a carriage and slowly stopped.
A knight opened the carriage door, put the feet on the ground, and the woman dressed as a noblewoman gracefully dismounted the carriage.
She is very beautiful and well-maintained, but she can still see some traces of time.
But this does not affect her outstanding luxurious temperament.
As soon as she got out of the car, she glared at Levi and asked:
"Levi! What do you mean! ”
"With your private soldiers and the army of magicians, you came to the gate of the royal capital to stop me? You're so daring! ”
Duke Revie smiled kindly and nodded at her.
"Lady Kasanna, don't come unharmed."
"I've brought so many people here just to ask you to stay here a little longer."
"I'll let you into town, but not now."
Although Revie smiled kindly, there was clearly some-for-tat between the two.
"Levi, don't forget who I am."
"I have never forgotten, Lady Kasanna, that I have remembered you since you forced me to marry you in your capacity."
Under the kind face of Rivi, he tells an extremely exciting past.
This matter, which could almost be called a royal secret, was told lightly by Rivi, and the guards around Lady Cassanna looked at each other in shock, wondering whether to continue listening to what was going on.
However, when Lady Cassana heard Rivey mention this, she suddenly became angry and cried out in a loud voice:
"What do you mean by mentioning it even now? Just want to humiliate me! ”
"I just want to stop you from catching up on the past, and by the way, I remind you that you don't have the surname Thor now."
Duke Rivi waved his hand, and a sorcerer behind him stepped forward and poured magic into the orb in his hand.
As the magical energy swirled chaotically within the orb for a while, it materialized from the orb.
A table and two chairs are generated out of thin air from the ground.
"You may be seated."
Levi stretched out his hand and took the lead in his chair.
Kasanna looked at the magician, and her excitement calmed down a little.
Rivi's Legion of Magures.
Strictly speaking, a sorcerer is a profession.
They are not mages, but it is much harder to become a mage than to be a mage.
The magicians are used to support their use of magic through expensive magic items, and they also have to train their strong physical strength for a long time to assist in battle.
Even if you train a magician, the price you spend is beyond the reach of ordinary nobles.
In the entire royal capital, only Duke Rivi has such sufficient financial resources and status to cultivate such a legion under the emperor's nose.
All in all, if Kasanna wants to break in.
She can't get in.
"I know the purpose of your visit to the royal capital, Lady Casanna, and you want to go and ask to see Your Majesty."
The knight behind him had already made tea for Rivi and placed it in front of Kasanna and Rivi.
Welcoming guests to tea at the gates of the city is something that only the Duke of Rivi can do.
Kasanna took the teacup with dignity and said calmly:
"Devon is my son and his nephew."
"He's not going to sit idly by."
"Don't be impulsive, ma'am."
Duke Rivi has not been in vain in politics for so many years.
He continued to persuade, and with his extreme affability, he easily calmed Kasanna's emotions.
"First of all, you have to know who your son has provoked."
"Victor Kravena, you must have heard of this name."
Hearing the name, Kasanna's expression flashed with a few distressed embarrassments.
Knowing her son is like a mother, of course she knows how arrogant her son is.
"But Victor is just a viscount......"
"He's a fourth-order mage now."
Lady Kasanna's eyes widened suddenly, and she looked incredulous:
"No, how is this possible, even you don't have ......"
Duke Levi shook his head and smiled wryly.
"But that's exactly what happened."
"If Victor is at fault, the emperor will naturally punish him heavily, but if the person in question is Devin Reeser."
"With all due respect, be prepared to lose him."
