Volume 5 Chapter 16 The Missing Xia Zuo
On this day, Xia Zuo did not appear in the academy.
No one knew where Xia Zuo had gone, because Xia Zuo had left the night before, and he hadn't told anyone else before leaving, except for Lei Zhi.
In the evening, Barnett, who had been waiting for an afternoon at the Legion of Glory station, arrived at Fanny's villa.
"What, Xia Zuo is gone?" Vani sat up from the couch with a nervous expression.
"Don't worry, he's only been missing for a day, maybe something, you can see where he is now?" Barnett reassured.
"Oh...... Okay!" Fanny nodded stunned, looked at the staircase and waved her hand.
Soon, the crystal ball flew down the stairs and floated in front of Fanny, who dragged the crystal ball with both hands and began to chant the incantation softly.
When the last word was pronounced, Fanny opened her eyes, and a white mist appeared in the crystal ball, constantly surging, but there was no picture of Xia Zuo.
"He's not in my divination range?" Eve frowned deeply, the wizard's divination is limited by distance, and if the target is too far away, it can't be divined.
"He's gone?" Barnett's face sank slightly.
"No, Xia Zuo won't just leave without saying hello, is it because he entered some kind of seal, so I can't see him?" Fanny guessed, what she was talking about was a very special situation, if Xia Zuo was really in a place with a strong seal, and the strength of the person who arranged the seal was more than Fanny, Fanny would not be able to divinate Xia Zuo's location.
"How could he have entered the seal inexplicably?" Barnett also frowned, obviously Xia Zuo was more likely to leave.
"Follow him!" Fanny turned grim, dragging the crystal ball in her hands, closing her eyes again, and chanting another incantation.
Divination tracking, an ability that combines divination in the past and divination in the present, it doesn't matter if Xia Zuo really left England City, at least Fanny can see Xia Zuo's experience before leaving.
But...... When Fanny opened her eyes again. There was still a white mist in the crystal ball, and Xia Zuo still couldn't be seen.
Fanny's face changed completely all of a sudden, and this situation can only mean that Xia Zuo has been imposed some kind of restriction, and cannot be divined by a wizard, and the person who can impose this prohibition is at least stronger than Eve, who is already an eight-star great wizard, that is, the person who imposes the ban. It is likely to be a nine-star great wizard, or even, a legendary wizard!
"How so?" Barnett stood up suddenly, he was already a peak legend, even if he was not a wizard profession, he knew a lot about divination.
"How could he be in such a big trouble?" said Eve's face turned pale.
"Contact Mistress Fiona, King Charles' son is lost and must be found......! How could this be!" Barnett's civilized stick slammed on the ground, looking a little angry.
He knew that Xia Zuo was the son of King Charles. It was much later than Fanny, and it was only after contacting Eve's teacher Fiona that he found out about it, which is why he asked Xia Zuo to join the Legion of Glory. That's why he was willing to let him enter the Martial Arts Enhancement Gym.
This may be a flattery, and Barnett believes that King Charles will know that the day of his breakthrough is getting closer and closer, and the trump card must be obtained. With the help of King Charles, the chances of success are at least several times greater.
But today, Xia Zuo turned out to be lost!
"I'm going to contact the teacher!" Fanny was a little flustered. Turned into a streamer and flew upstairs.
The next day, a viral message caused an uproar in Englandtown.
Steam Alliance spies and vampires wreak havoc in Southtown, killing Nandy, son of Earl Acheson, sheriff of England City, two noble barons, six noble knights, and eighty-seven elite soldiers of the Seventh City Guard.
Among them, there is one big martial artist, six martial artists, and four fighters.
The 1st Brigade of the Seventh City Guard was almost completely killed and wounded, and Henry Street, where the battle took place, was completely stained red with blood, and it was washed away for a whole day, and the blood on the ground was not washed away.
It is said that the British side dispatched the Wyvern Knight to settle the matter, but it was only the capture of the Steam Alliance's spies and the capture of two energy weapons, as for the vampire Viscount with the strength of a great martial artist, he fled after being seriously injured.
This has caused the wrath of Queen Mary II, and it is not without fighting in England, but it has not happened for a long time to cause the death of nobles and the loss of a large number of elites of the city guards.
This is the core of the British Empire of Great Britain, the hub of power where the nobles gather, and it is impossible for the queen not to be angry if she dares to do such a big thing under the queen's nose.
For the next few days, the city was in a state of turmoil, and the British government began a comprehensive search of the entire city, looking for hidden vampires and Steam Alliance spies.
In the Royal Academy, this incident also caused an uproar, originally this matter had nothing to do with them at all, they had even experienced the invasion of the Demon Legion, and the death of a few nobles outside was nothing at all, but this time, Nandy died!
They only care about this, and the match between the Legion of Glory and the Aquaman Legion.
As for where Nandy's killer came from, who was it, what he looked like, they didn't care at all, not to mention that the official had already given information to the outside world that he was a spy of a certain country in the Steam Alliance.
"Hey, really, where did Xia Zuo go?
In the cafeteria at noon, Vivien was eating sullenly, muttering in her mouth, talking about the game all around, talking about Nandy, and only she still remembered the missing Xia Zuo.
"Could it be that he didn't think he could win the game, so he ran away? This guy can't be such a scumbag, right?" Louis joked on the side.
"Perhaps, he just went out to relax, and he wouldn't really be scared away by the arrears of 300,000 gold, right?" Peña on the other side took a small bite to eat, guessing, she didn't think it should be, because she knew that Xia Zuo was from Celsa.
Treacherous! and cruel have always been synonymous with the Sersa.
But no one has ever denied the bravery and fearlessness of the Sersa, will Xia Zuo back down?
......
Cold, painful, unpleasant stench...... Xia Zuo's consciousness gradually revived, his eyelashes trembled, and he slowly opened his eyes, vaguely. He saw some figures, and the light was dim.
"Look, he's moving!"
"It's so badly injured and not dead, it's really fatal!"
Xia Zuo heard some talking, and the world in his eyes gradually became clear, a small room, three walls, and the remaining one was an iron fence, and there were more than a dozen people in the room. They were all dressed in the same gray linen clothes, young and old, black and white.
"Ahem, cough, cough!" Xia Zuo coughed hard, spitting blood in his mouth, not only raised his hand to cover the wound on his abdomen, the wound had stopped bleeding, but the internal injury was not healed.
Xia Zuo noticed that he had changed into the same clothes as those people, and on one of his wrists. The dual-force bracer is still there, and it is estimated that it is too difficult to take off, so it is left on it, and above the wrist. The position of the forearm is a very special kind of handcuff.
The handcuffs were not chained to each other, about two fingers wide and one finger thick, and were intricately inscribed on them. I don't know what the role of the road is.
"Ahem, where is this?" asked Natsuzo as he got up, barely sat down against the wall, and spoke.
"The Third Prison in England. Kid, how did you get caught here......? How can you commit such a great sin?" said the old man who looked to be nearly sixty years old next to him, who looked very bad, hungry and only skinny, dirty, and smelling unpleasant.
"Third Prison?" Xia Zuo muttered, "You didn't even kill me!"
"How long have I been here?" asked Xia Zuo again.
"It's been a day and a night, hey, in this world, how can you even catch a child!" sighed the skinny old man, who had been in prison for thirty years, and it was the first time that a prisoner of this age had been in prison.
Of course, if he knew how big a crime Xia Zuo had done, he would never say that he was a child again.
What is the third prison in Xia Zuozhi Road, there are only three prisons in England City, the first one is for ordinary people, the second is for felons among ordinary people, and this third prison is a place for the most heinous criminals and professionals.
The mention of this prison makes many people feel fear in their hearts, because no one who enters this prison has ever made it out alive, and it is a place where even legendary martial artists can be held, and the level of rigor is unimaginable.
Xia Zuo knew that he had caused so much trouble, how could he be easily killed, because the two weapons given to him by Lei made him mistaken for a spy of the Steam Alliance, killing and wounding too many nobles and city guards, Xia Zuo must go to court, and at the end of the day, he will have to go through public execution, only in this way can he give an explanation to those angry nobles.
"Huh!" Xia Zuo suddenly felt something strange in his heart, and immediately calmed down and felt silently.
"It's actually starting to fuse?" Xia Zuo's eyes lit up, and he felt that the blood magic stone in his body had begun to merge with his heart.
The first stage of the "Blood Saint Demon Codex" wants to be cultivated, and it is divided into three steps, which are opening, fusion, and transformation!
Xia Zuo had already stuffed the blood magic stone into it, started the cultivation, and the following was fusion, fusing the blood magic stone with the heart, Xia Zuo thought that it would take at least half a year or so to start the fusion, but he didn't expect it to start now.
"Could it be because the injury is too severe?" Xia Zuo thought about it, his eyes getting brighter and brighter, but there was an abrupt dimming.
What's the use of merging in this horrific prison?
"Hey, don't fight, don't fight, grandfathers, I know it's wrong......"
"Dead fat pig, come and lick my toes, hahaha...... Aren't you rich? Why don't you go out of the country?"
"Where's your musket? Get out of here...... Haha......ha
The sudden noise woke up Natsuzo, who was thinking about something with his head down, and he seemed to hear a familiar but unexpected voice.
"Hit, beat him!"
"Hey, hey, this shit!"
There were also some sounds of laughter and shouting outside the cell, outside the cell where Xia Zuo was located was an aisle, and on the other side of the aisle was another cell, and there were many prisoners in it.
Fights between prisoners in prisons are common, and the guards don't even care if they hear the sounds, and the people held here are either sentenced to death or imprisoned for life, and one is less than one killed.
It's no different from the second prison, the prisoners of the second prison, even if they are hanged, there will be a process of being sold as slaves, if someone buys them in the slave market, they lose their human rights, but they will be spared, and if no one buys them, then they will be really hanged.
Here, there is no slave trade, and the third prison does not allow prisoners to leave the prison alive.
Xia Zuo got up slowly, and was about to go over to take a look.
"Hey, don't go there, kid!"
"Don't go!"
Several people around were whispering to persuade Xia Zuo, and one of them also grabbed Xia Zuo's trouser leg.
"It's okay, uncle! Xia Zuo said to the middle-aged prisoner who stopped him, and slowly walked over holding his abdomen.
The beaters were two white and one black, all in their thirties, all of whom were very strong, and they were beating a bearded prisoner, and the beaten man was curled up on the ground, covered with dirty footprints.
Xia Zuo watched from the sidelines, and his whole body was shocked, he really knew the prisoner who was beaten.
"Why are you beating him for?" Xia Zuo said.
The three of them suddenly stopped, and they all looked at Xia Zuo.
"Boy, are you looking for death?"
"We like it, don't you want to try it too?"
A few people saw that Xia Zuo was still a child, so they didn't do it immediately, but they also scolded a few words.
The surrounding prisons suddenly set off louder shouts and beatings, all of them looked like they were watching a good show, and in the prison where Xia Zuo was located, the few people who had just persuaded Xia Zuo to go over shrank back, not daring to go up to persuade them, looking afraid of these three prisoners who beat people.
"Why are you scolding me?" I just asked!" Xia Zuo asked, gesturing to himself.
"You ......" the white man with a scar on his face opened his mouth and scolded again......
Syllable!
With a loud slap, the scar-faced white man flew out of the wall, slammed into the wall, curled up in the corner and spit out a few bloody teeth.
"......Ahh Hit me, beat him to death......" The scar-faced man yelled.
The remaining two middle-aged people, one black and one white, moved at the same time, and smashed their casserole-like fists towards Xia Zuo.
Bang bang!
Almost indistinctly two consecutive feet, two figures flew upside down like cannonballs and smashed on the scar-faced man, all of them spurting blood, holding his stomach and unable to get up, and the scar-faced man was smashed and spurted blood again, almost fainting.
The sound of shouting and beating suddenly fell silent, and the prisoners who could see the situation in the surrounding prisons all stared at Xia Zuo with wide eyes.
"You can't talk properly, nervous!" Xia Zuo muttered, rubbing his abdomen again, and walked over to the prisoner who had just been beaten and sat down.
The bearded prisoner quickly ducked to the side, looking very afraid of being beaten.
Xia Zuo's expression suddenly became extremely complicated, because he couldn't understand how the person in front of him could change from the original generation of giant businessmen to this?
"Why are you here? Xia Zuo sighed. (To be continued......)
