Mages Are Too OP

Epic mission.

In the Moonlight Tavern, Shuke sat opposite Roland, looking at the task he just shared, and felt emotional.

"Whether it's you or Beta, your luck is a little too good. Wherever you go, you'll get an epic mission and come back to play."

Roland: Huh? ? ? ?

As we all know, when I put a question mark, it's not that I have a problem, it's that I think you have a problem.

As the only paladin among the players in the full server, you, Shuke, have a divine outfit from the goddess, and a beautiful girl dragon under the crotch as a mount. The paladin is also so powerful that even the Pope can shake his face.

In this way, relying on a handsome face to lie down, you can get something that other players can't even think about without moving. You actually say that the two of us are either working hard outside, or we keep doing magic experiments, and we don't stop Two people who have worked hard... luck?

Do you want to nod your face!

Looking at Roland's weird, even slightly mocking eyes, Shuke knew that he was acting too hard, he coughed lightly, and said, "Since this task can be shared, should we go and accept Li Lin and the others too? Come here, rare epic mission."

"I talked to them in the guild system last night, and the result..." Roland reluctantly stroked his forehead: "They said that they were low-level, and they had just recovered their health some time ago, and they ran to meet the goddess of love again. They've fooled around, and now they've become soft-footed shrimp. They're recuperating in Hollevin. It's the kind of state where you can barely protect yourself, but if you want to do something big, it's not very good."

Shuke tutted: "These guys are completely addicted."

"There's no way. For them, this method is not slow to upgrade, and it's happy. They are people who are more open-minded, so it's not clear to you."

Another scantily clad female bartender came over to serve the dishes, and touched Shuke's shoulder unintentionally or unintentionally.

But Shuke was completely unmoved. After a while, the female sommelier left again disappointed.

Roland has long been surprised by this.

After all, he has seen similar situations countless times since he was a child.

Shuke took a sip of fruit wine: "Let's go back to the mission. I told you yesterday that I felt that the atmosphere in Wangcheng was wrong. I didn't expect that the vice president of the Magic Association was assassinated so soon. I paid special attention to it. After hearing this news, I obtained second-hand information from acquaintances of the Heresy Interrogation Bureau."

'Heterotic Interrogation Bureau', the name of this institution is full of arrogance and murderous aura.

It is indeed a religious organization.

"So you know what's going on?"

Shuke shook his head: "I know some information, but I still look at flowers in the fog and look at the moon in the water. The vice president of the Magic Association is a woman with a very strong style. It is said that her personal position is more inclined towards the eldest princess Stephanie. , so I guess the political struggle may have caused this result.”

"What about the others?" Roland asked.

Shuke thought for a while and continued: "She is very talented in magic. Although she is only about sixty-seven years old, she has already touched the threshold of legend, so the Magic Association is also very optimistic about her. Now she has been assassinated, magic It is also common sense for the association to jump."

"When you touch the threshold of legend, to assassinate such a person, you have to be about the same strength." Roland thought for a while and said, "Is there any powerful assassin in Wangcheng recently?"

Shuke spread his hands and said with a smile: "What do you think? The Royal City of France is not a place where any organization can come in. It's better to talk about other warrior associations, such as assassins associations, thieves associations and other dark organizations. As long as you dare to put your hand in, our Light God Sect will dare to pick up a stick and knock his hand off. This is the King City of France, and it is also the Sanctuary of Light."

No wonder Shuke said that.

For a long time, the Light God Sect, the Thieves Guild, the Assassination Guild and other organizations have been rushing.

They pride themselves on being bright, look down on those villains hiding in the shadows, and even disgust them with extreme disgust.

Ordinary people's dislike of thieves and assassins comes from fear and vigilance against the dangers lurking in the dark. But the priests of the God of Light are different. They despise these people who dare not stand in the sun from their hearts, and think that they are maggots in the dark, with foul-smelling things all over their bodies.

In other cities, the Light God Cult is too lazy to pay attention to the dung maggots in their eyes, but in the Sanctuary of Light, the place closest to the Goddess of Light, they absolutely do not allow any disgusting dung maggots to appear.

This would detract from the glory of the goddess.

However, the power is mutual, and being discriminated against in this way makes these hunters walking in the shadows extremely unhappy.

So they also get revenge.

If you have time or not, I will harass the temples of the God of Light in other cities. If you have nothing to do, it will add to the actions of the Temple of Light.

The two sides have 'interactions' with each other.

From the outsider's point of view, there is a feeling of rejoicing with the enemy.

Because the Temple of Light dislikes the professions of thieves and assassins, there are almost no people from these two organizations in Wangcheng. Even if they appear occasionally, they are those little thieves who can't be named. Legendary assassins and assassins will not come to the King City of France to seek abuse.

Not to mention that there are at least three kinds of light magic that can break the invisibility. The light sanctuary has been stationed here for many years with the light pope, saintess, thirteen paladins, and more than ten legendary archbishops.

Combat power exploded.

Assassins with seaweeds in their minds would only think of stepping on landmines in the Sanctuary of Light.

Roland often looks for books in this world to read, so he has a certain understanding of this matter. After listening to Shuke, he thought about it and said, "That is to say, your light religion excludes powerful assassins or assassins from coming. The possibility of something going on here?"

"I can't say it's completely ruled out, it's a high probability ruled out." Shuke thought for a while and said, "The news we got from the Heresy Interrogation Bureau said that the vice president of the Magic Association died of a backstab and stabbed his heart directly from the back. One blow is lethal. The weapon should be a short sword. But now the murder weapon is not found, nor is there anything or clues left by the suspected murderer."

"Just so much information?" Roland scratched his head.

Shuke also sighed helplessly: "That's it. Our Bright God Cult is not very involved in secular political struggles, but is just trying to maintain the balance of power as much as possible."

"Tsk, it really is looking at flowers in the fog." Roland sighed: "It's a bit difficult to complete this epic mission with just this information."

Shuke thought for a while and said, "It's okay, don't worry. I'm also a paladin, with some power. Next, I will apply for an organization to establish an investigation team to investigate this matter."

"Hey, you have a bit of power." Roland said with admiration, then paused for a while, and then said: "But private use of public tools will make the high-level evaluation of you in the Temple of Light lower."

Shuke laughed for a while, and then said: "Roland, you still made a mistake in experience and common sense, applying the normal organizational structure to the sect. In the major religions, the most important thing is the gods they believe in. , The essence of all the behaviors of the gods is to spread her ideas and expand their beliefs for their own gods, and you can even use a lot of methods that you don't dare to think about. It's just that the sect of good gods has a bottom line in doing things, and they don't send in so much. So as long as it's something related to faith, it's not trivial."

"Is this related to belief?" Roland was curious.

"Not yet, but it's unclear if there is any after checking." Shuke drank the small half-fruit wine in the glass and continued: "I have now understood the essence of the paladin, you can consider me as a relative of the goddess , not to mention pulling a small team and using public weapons for private use. As long as I have a suitable reason, I can even go beyond the Pope and launch a crusade."

Roland looked around and found that no one paid attention to the chat between the two of them.

He breathed a sigh of relief: "I know that you are a powerful person now, but don't be too arrogant. After all, the Pope is the nominal second-in-command of your religious religion. If you said this just now, it might make him feel bad. some mustache."

Roland's words were straightforward and had a strong sense of exhortation. Under normal circumstances, these words can only come from brothers and sisters, or people who have a very good relationship.

Shuke was stunned for a moment, he touched his eyebrows, and looked a little dazed.

Then his expression became very strange, as if he had thought of something terrible, and his face was a little ugly.

Roland couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"

"No, my mental state is a bit wrong." Shuke frowned and said, "I shouldn't be such a swollen person, and you know that I have always been a stubborn person."

Roland nodded.

That's why he was strange, so he just spoke out to exhort him.

"I'll go back first and ask the saint to help me see if there is something wrong with my soul." Shuke stood up and said, "I will pull up the investigation team. It's not difficult. I think you can use it. As for your identity as a magician, first investigate it in the Magic Association, if there is anything, we will talk about it in the guild chat system."

"Okay." Roland nodded.

Shuke went to pay for the meal, and then left in a hurry.

Roland stayed and drank the fruit wine slowly.

It stands to reason that the Son of Gold also means that players will not be affected by mental aspects.

Unless... someone has the ability to break through the protection of the system.

is it possible?

From a gaming perspective, this is impossible. After all, the rules of the game system are bigger than the sky.

But the problem is, if you take this game world as real, everything is possible.

All spells and specialties have strength.

If it is the real world, the protection of the system should also have a strong statement.

So, what level do you need to break through the mental influence of system-level strength?

At least legal level.

Because the official bikini underwear prepared by the game for the girls is legal protection equipment.

In order to understand and use the abilities of the law level, you must be at the demigod level or above.

Shuke spends most of his time in the Sanctuary of Light, which is the place where the Goddess of Light is watching.

Who can influence the spirit of a paladin under the watchful eye of a goddess?

Roland subconsciously looked at the sky, where there was a golden scorching sun hanging in the silence of white clouds.

Ah!

After Roland finished drinking the fruit wine in his glass, he felt as if he was worrying too much.

Leaving the Moonstone Tavern, Roland returned to the Magic Association. Compared with yesterday, the atmosphere here was much more serious. From time to time, he could see soldiers in black robes patrolling the building.

Back in his room, as soon as he opened the door, he saw three women in the room drinking afternoon tea.

Andonara, Princess Stephanie, and Sharon.

The three women are all quite beautiful, even the worst of the three, Sharon, gives people a plump and mature beauty. When they saw Roland, they all stood up.

Roland felt that the eldest princess was quite idle, and had afternoon tea for two days in a row.

Andonara came up directly to help Roland pat the dust that didn't exist on her body, her expression was gentle, and she didn't seem to know how virtuous.

Roland nodded to the eldest princess and said, "I'm sorry to disturb your chat. I'll go into the bedroom later, the three of you continue, don't worry about me."

Stephanie smiled and said, "Wait, Your Excellency Roland, this time we came here mainly to talk to you about something."

Roland was stunned for a moment, then reached out and asked Stephanie to sit down, and he sat down himself.

Andonara immediately brought a glass of fruit wine to him.

Taking a sip of the fruit wine, Roland asked, "I don't know if the eldest princess is here. Is there anything I can help you with?"

Although the other party was the princess of France, Roland felt that he didn't need to take the initiative to lower his identity, and the big deal was to leave the country of France.

Anyway, since the last time he was discriminated against in the country of France, he had no good feelings for this country.

Stephanie looked at Roland's indifferent attitude, and shook her eyebrows slightly. Among her peers, there was no one who could face her so neither humble nor arrogant.

Either forced by her status and power, or fascinated by her pomegranate skirt.

Only those big bosses who are old and are almost inhumane can face her peacefully.

As expected of the man that Andonara re-selected? Stephanie sighed in her heart and felt a little disappointed, and then she said, "I think your Excellency already knows about the assassination of the vice president of the Magic Association."

Roland nodded, isn't this nonsense.

The two of them were almost regarded as murderers last night. If it wasn't for the endorsement of the mentors of the Red Magic Tower, maybe he would have beaten the city of France now.

"I'll be honest, the vice president of the Magic Association is my person. Her death is most likely directed at me, directed at me." Stephanie whispered: "The vice president's She is very strong and has special magical equipment to protect her body, but even so, she was killed. I am very insecure now, so I want to ask someone I trust to protect me for a while."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Andonara.

Roland understood what the eldest princess meant.

Now he was worried that there was no way to complete the epic mission, and he couldn't even figure out how to start, and the condition proposed by Stephanie was exactly what he wanted.

At least in relation to epic quests, there may be a breakthrough.

Just... Roland looked at Andonara.

Then he smiled and said, "It's up to Andonara to decide. If she wants to protect you, she can go. If she doesn't want to, then forget it."

After hearing this, Stephanie immediately turned her gaze to Andonara, her pupils shone brightly.

Andonara hesitated for a while, and said to Roland in a negotiating tone: "Then... protect her for ten days, okay?"

After two days of getting along, especially when Stephanie took the initiative to show her kindness, Andonara felt that she was a good friend.

Since a friend is in trouble, of course you have to find a way to help.

It's just... In Andonara's view, Roland has to agree to this.

"I said it's up to you." Roland walked over and hugged Andonara gently: "Don't worry, have fun, I'll learn magic here, and come back to me when you settle things up."

Andonara smiled and nodded.

Since getting to know Andonara, Roland has found that she has never voluntarily left the 'comfort zone', nor has she voluntarily left home.

This is a serious lack of security performance.

In Andonara's world, Roland is the most important and the only important.

But now she is willing to try to come out and make new friends, why doesn't Roland support it.

Hearing Roland agree, Stephanie breathed a sigh of relief.

She was afraid that Roland would not agree. After all, when Andonara had afternoon tea with her in the past two days, she hardly did not mention Roland.

From Andonara's gentle eyes and happy expression, Stephanie could tell that the woman in front of her was doing well.

In contrast, she was... a widow, and she killed her husband with her own hands.

At Andonara's wedding that year, she made a lot of nonsense, but within a few years, reality slapped her face hard.

Andonara held the long sword and was reluctant to part. She wanted to protect her new friend and stay by Roland's side.

Still so confused.

At this time, Stephanie moved in her heart and said, "How about Lord Roland also come to live in my manor?"

"No, I'm going to learn magic here." Roland waved his hand.

"But in my manor, there is a big library with a lot of books." Stephanie smiled and said, "My ex-husband is also a magician. After he got married, he spent almost all the money on books and books. Above the spell model, the library in the manor has been sealed since his death, but I think there are so many books in it, there are always some that you have not read."

Um?

If you say so, then I'm not sleepy at all.

Roland's eyes suddenly lit up: "Okay, then I'll tell the tutor, you guys wait here."

Andonara was very happy when she heard that Roland was willing to go to the princess' manor with her.

Hug Roland first, then go to hug Stephanie.

The Magic Association is too big. Roland asked someone for directions, but it took him a long time to find the high-level area of ​​the Magic Association. He accidentally bumped into a mentor of the red magic tower and asked him to send a message to Elford, saying that he would go first. Live in Stephanie's manor for a while.

This mentor is an insider, and he knows exactly what Erford's purpose in bringing Roland to this morning is.

Hearing this, he immediately agreed for Erford.

After Roland turned around and walked away, the mentor said with admiration, "We haven't made any efforts here yet, so you have a relationship with Stephanie yourself. Do you really like wives and mature women so much?"

Roland didn't know that his reputation continued to be murdered. After he returned to his room, he left the association with the three women, and took a carriage to a manor about 300 meters away from the palace.

There is a square grove on the periphery of the manor, which wraps the entire manor.

Inside the manor, the layout is very atmospheric.

Large green lawn with gazebo on the left and orchard on the right.

A pale golden building is in the middle, and at the back is a field that is being cultivated, and I don't know what to plant.

Speaking of which, it seems that everything in the manor is very simple.

But if I tell you that the grass on the lawn is star flower, the building material of the light blue pavilion is the moss stone of the elves, and the light gold building, the wood is all the yellow eucalyptus trees of the elves, as long as you know what to do People will give an astonishing price.

There are more than a dozen wooden houses hidden in the small square forest surrounding the manor, and at least more than a hundred elite soldiers are hidden.

After entering the manor, Stephanie personally took Roland and Andonara up to the second floor and let them stay in the best and largest guest room.

Then take Roland to the basement.

The basement of the small building is already in a half-empty state. There is not only a secret passage, but also a huge library.

Stephanie put the rusted bronze key in Roland's hand, pointed to the blue iron door in front of her, and said, "This is the library, since my ex-husband died, I haven't gone in. Listen to the maid. It is said that the cries of the ex-husband are faintly heard inside, and there may be ghosts. But my ex-husband is far worse than you, and he died not long after he became a full-fledged mage. Compared with you, I believe that inside Even if you have a soul, you shouldn't be afraid."

Roland shrugged.

He has seen a lot of soul stuff.

I killed one when I came out of Red Clay Town, and then went to the Kingdom of Life... I saw a horrific number of voters of the Kingdom of God. In essence, those voters were all souls.

With a slight smile, Stephanie took Andonara away, and said as she walked, "Come on, let's go to have afternoon tea, I got a very precious thing, elf honey, I don't know if you have heard of it. What about gold coins of equal value?"

After the two women left, Roland opened the iron door of the library with a bronze key.

Karma's sour voice echoed in the secret passage. After the iron door was pushed open, it was pitch black.

Roland flicked his fingers and threw a small ball of light into it.

After waiting for the scene in front of his eyes to come into view, Roland couldn't help but wow.

Rows of bookshelves appeared in front of his eyes, and each row of bookshelves was full of books.

Roland walked in and touched the bookshelf lightly as a strong bookish air rushed to his face.

All of the bookshelves are beautifully crafted, and while each is the same size, the carvings on the shelves are completely different.

All are beautiful.

Each shelf is written with a special ink on the type of books in that shelf.

'Biography', 'Customs', 'Magic Catalog', almost all the book categories in this world.

Roland came to the magic catalog, and first found a large number of books on spellcasting experience, written by different magicians.

There are at least more than 400 books. Roland randomly picked out a few and flipped through them. He found that the previous owner had also made detailed notes and notes in these books.

He also wrote down some of his own experiences.

Then Roland found the bookshelf of the spell model.

The first- and second-level magic is very complete, there are many third-level magics, and there are only a few fourth-level magics. Roland even found a spell model of fifth-level magic.

'Bloomfall'.

Earned earned earned.

Roland's head was so excited that he quickly called up the system camera and scanned all the spell models he had never seen before.

This fifth-level 'bolide fall' is not particularly strong among the same-level magic, but it is also a fifth-level magic anyway.

For any spell model diagram of fifth-level magic, the purchase price starts from at least fifty gold coins.

In fact, money is only a small matter. Even in the red magic tower, if you want to learn magic, in addition to paying money, you must have enough 'contribution'. There is no specific quantitative rule for contribution. It is the high-level red magic tower. I think you can Learning is enough to contribute.

After all these spell models were scanned, Roland went to other bookshelves to see if there were any books worth noting.

Then Roland found out that Stephanie's ex-husband had a very wide range of hobbies and a very mixed set of hobbies.

In addition to the major classified books mentioned before, he also collected many life books.

Books that teach people how to fish, books that teach people how to cook, for example.

Of course, these books are of poor paper quality and feel like papyrus in your hand.

It is estimated that it cannot be stored for too long and it will weather and shatter on its own.

In addition to life books, this person also collected a lot of novels about color.

Roland even found several princess books like "The Yalong People's Moxibustion Hot Spear and Toast", "The Fall of an Innocent Girl", and "The Plain Life of My Sister-in-law and Me".

What "The Princess Cries at Night", "The Princess and the Slave" and so on.

Um? Wait, isn't your wife a princess? You still like to read this kind of book.

Could it be the arch dam brother from another world?

Roland took a deep breath. This concubine's hobby is really interesting.

After flipping through a few color novels, Roland shook his head indifferently.

The world is, after all, a cultural desert.

In general, there is not much textual communication.

The plots of these novels are very old-fashioned, and the text and plot rendering are even worse.

If you search for novels about color on the Internet in modern society, most of them can be hanged.

After all, most of the people who write color novels on the Internet have been systematically educated for at least 12 years. If the number of compositions written every year is fixed, they can produce several books.

What's more, everyone learns from each other, supports each other, and absorbs each other's writing and essence.

The things written are really much stronger than the color novelists of this era.

Putting these boring color novels back on the bookshelf, Roland couldn't help but have a question.

The eldest princess killed the concubine, is it because Stephanie also saw these princess color novels?

After all, in these novels, the fate of the princess is too pitiful.

Roland went back to the bookshelves of the 'magic catalogues', picked out a random copy of other magician's experiences, and looked at it.

Paper is very expensive in this world, and those who dare to record their hearts in books have two brushes.

Roland watched it for less than three minutes before indulging in it.

He read it very carefully, and was unwilling to let go of every word. Sometimes, he would read a sentence of the author several times, and then compare it with his own experience.

Pages were turned over, and time passed little by little.

When the light ball was dark, Roland would subconsciously release another.

When he was hungry, Andonara would appear by his side at the right time and bring delicious food.

As long as he opens his mouth, Andonara will gently feed the food into his mouth.

Roland's entire thoughts were put into the thoughts written by these magicians.

In the past few days, there will be comments and notes from the concubine, but the later experience is getting more and more difficult and more imaginative.

But Roland understood.

The experiences of these magicians are unpredictable, some are real personal experience, and some are just speculation.

It's a whole new idea.

Modern society is talking about innovation and innovation. It seems that as long as you think about it, you can get new technology and new technology.

But they ignore that a solid foundation of knowledge is the foundation of all innovations.

Unfounded ideas, whimsical ideas that don't reach the ground, are just nonsense.

Those wild ideas are really interesting, but these magicians have no way to realize them, they can only use books to keep their ideas.

And these have become Roland's knowledge and experience points.

This is the importance of laying a good foundation, otherwise your ideas will only become fertilizer for other people's growth.

The Son of Gold does not need to sleep, and as long as he does not exercise excessively, he will not feel tired.

So Roland doesn't know how long it has passed, but he has only read half of the bookshelf, and there are still three bookshelves for such a magician's experience books.

It won't be boring for a long time.

Roland sat on the stone chair made of 'Turn mud into stone', his expression became more and more comfortable.

On the ground, in the pavilion of the manor, Andonara, Stephanie, and a few noble ladies were drinking fruit wine, eating pastries, and chatting about gossip.

Stephanie took a moment and asked Andonara next to her in a low voice, "Your Excellency Roland has been in the basement for four days, won't he be sleepy?"

"Once he started to study magic, it was like this. It was common for him not to come out for a few days. The longest time, he did not leave the magic laboratory for two months." Andonara smiled.

Stephanie looked rather surprised: "So diligent?"

"Isn't he very boring?" A lady next to him interjected: "Andonara, you are so beautiful, it's a pity to follow such a boring gourd. With your appearance, there is no problem in becoming a princess. ."

Stephanie chuckled, she felt the same way.

Andonara said: "That's what you don't understand. Even if a man can't speak sweet words, you will feel at ease as long as you know where he is and that he is not looking for women. As long as I can feel him , even if he doesn't talk to me and just does his own thing, I'll be happy, but if a man runs around, when you miss him, you don't know which woman's bed he's in, no matter how sweet his mouth is, he can say no more What's the use of so many sweet words!"

As soon as these words came out, the ladies around were embarrassed.

That's how their men are, often not knowing which woman's bed they're in.

After Stephanie was stunned, she smiled softly: "It turns out that you like a peaceful life, but it's a pity that you are so powerful."

Andonara smiled and said, "If you have strength, you can protect him well."

Looking at Andonara's happy expression, a lady was very upset and said, "That's because he wasn't tempted, why don't we send a beautiful one to try? Maybe he has tasted the taste of other women. , will run around everywhere..."

The air suddenly solidified.

I don't know when, Andonara left the seat, with an extra dagger in his hand, and was standing on the neck of the talking lady: "Bitch, you dare to try this?"

The gentle and kind Andonara looked indifferent at this time, even with a faint killing intent.

Although the Phoenix bloodline is the bloodline of the hero, according to the Demon Lord Diablo, Phoenix is ​​one of the demon gods of the demon world.

Just betrayed the demon world.

So from the source, Andonara is the descendant of the Demon King, and it is not wrong.

"I...I just...whatever...say."

When has this lady ever seen this battle? She felt the cold iron on her neck, extremely sharp, as if she would have to open her delicate neck with a single movement.

Suddenly, Hua Rong turned pale with fright, her face was pale, and there was even a faint smell in the air.

Stephanie didn't stop her, she was treated like this by Andonara back then, but at that time Andonara used a long sword, and her aura was far less fierce than it is now.

"You can't talk nonsense, remember." Andona shook her hand, and the dagger disappeared. She swept a few other ladies: "Who else has a similar idea?"

Several ladies shook their heads vigorously.

"That's good."

Andonara sat back in the chair and slowly drank the fruit wine.

But the atmosphere at this time was completely ruined.

After calming down a little, the threatened lady felt a chill under her body, how could she not understand what was going on, she covered her face and ran away from the manor crying.

Several other ladies also got up, bowed slightly to the eldest Princess Stephanie, and left the manor.

Taking a breath, Andonara said, "Sorry, I was too excited to stir up your afternoon tea."

"It's alright." Stephanie refilled herself with fruit wine and said, "I was only familiar with them, and the relationship is not very good. Afternoon tea, there are many people who drink more, two people have the beauty of two people. , isn't it?"

Andonara nodded in agreement, then she looked around to see if there were any enemies around, and then she said, "You said you wanted me to protect you, but I haven't found any in the past few days. Suspicious person, are you lying to me?"

"I don't know if someone will kill me." Stephanie's eyes were a little confused: "But the vice president is my person, that's not wrong. It may be that I have been staying in the manor, and the enemy has no chance. Let's start the relationship."

At this moment, Stephanie's old butler rushed in in a hurry, he put his hands on his knees, half bent, panting, and said: "My eldest princess, it's not good, something happened. General Lewis is dead. He was hanged from a crooked-neck tree behind his estate."

"What!" Stephanie stood up suddenly, her face full of anger.

General Lewis is her subordinate and the talent she relies on.

Stephanie even planned to hand over the Knights of the Guard to General Lewis to lead after she became queen.

This shows her trust in General Lewis.

But now... the person she values ​​and believes so much is actually hanging behind the house.

If it is said that no one is targeting her, the ghost will not believe it.

"Bring the guards and come with me to see." The eldest princess slapped the table suddenly, and the pots and cups on it jumped up a bit, then fell again, and bounced everywhere.

"I'll go with you." Andonara approached the princess Stephanie.

Stephanie forced a smile and nodded.

Then Andonara suddenly clapped her hands and said, "Why don't you bring Roland, he is very smart, maybe he can see something."

"Okay?" Stephanie was suspicious. Because Roland has been reading books in recent days, she has regarded him as a nerd.

Such people will be very knowledgeable, but generally speaking, the level of on-the-spot performance and application is not very good.

"Besides, I also hope he can come out for a walk." Andonara smiled.

"Okay, listen to you." Stephanie smiled. In her heart, Andonara was her only friend and had a special status.

Andonara happily ran down the secret path, and pulled the somewhat confused Roland out after a while.

At this time, Roland was still immersed in magic experience, the ocean of magic knowledge, and his head did not completely turn around.

It was not until she was pulled into the carriage by Andona and arrived at the scene with more than 100 soldiers, when she saw a naked man hanging on a tree and fluttering in the wind, that she was completely awake.

The atmosphere of this world is relatively open, whether it is Andonara or Stephanie, there will be no embarrassment when seeing a man's naked body.

Their expressions were even serious.

Mainly because the deceased looked so miserable.

There are at least a dozen long sharp tool scratches on his body, each of which has deep bones.

In addition, the abdomen of this strong man was cut open, and the pink intestines and other colored organs were exposed, and even the intestines were almost dragged to the ground.

The air was filled with a strong smell of blood, and on the ground below the deceased was hanging, there was a black blood that was not completely solidified.

The surrounding area has been cleared, and now there are only Roland and others and more than a hundred private soldiers of Stephanie.

But the surrounding air was very dull, and under the scorching sun, there was a strange overcast wind blowing.

The eyes of the deceased were open and out of focus, and the tongue was pushed out of the mouth, which was very long and looked disgusting.

"Put people down." Stephanie waved her hand coldly.

Immediately, several soldiers stepped forward, untied the rope from the dead man's neck, and laid the man flat on the ground.

Even kindly stuffed the deceased's intestines back into the abdominal cavity.

Roland walked around the deceased, then looked around, and said strangely: "Princess, before you came here, you told me that this is the back of the deceased's house, right? Judging from the color of the blood, although the deceased The time of death is not too long, but how can I say it has been more than an hour, the home is in front, and no family members have come to take a look?"

"I also find it strange." Stephanie nodded: "I have already sent people to the manor in front of me to see what's going on."

It seems that this eldest princess is not a straw bag, at least the response is normal and calm.

Roland Gao finally glanced at the eldest princess, then he squatted in front of the deceased, looked at the face of the deceased, and stood up thoughtfully.

"Have you found anything?" Andonara walked to Roland and asked.

She already had a long sword in her hand.

Roland raised his eyes and asked, "Princess, this general, can he know magic?"

"No." Stephanie shook her head: "General Lewis is a pure warrior. Look how strong his muscles are, how could he be a mage!"

"I think so, but I'm afraid that he is a dual-cultivator of magic and martial arts." Roland stood up and said: "There is a very obscure magic element in his body, which is slowly dissipating, and ordinary people can't feel it. The degree can only be, that's why I ask that."

Stephanie frowned: "How is this possible, General Lewis has never learned magic. What's with the magic element in his body."

"If it wasn't for his own magic element, he was beaten in." Roland stood up and walked around the deceased's body again: "I think these sharp-blade wounds outside may be to cover up the real cause of his death. "

Stephanie was very smart, she immediately understood what Roland meant: "You mean, he died under magic? Can you tell what kind of magic it is?"

Roland shook his head: "It's too late, magic has been reduced to the most basic magic element. However, judging from the fact that his whole body is damaged by sharp blades, but there are no scars of energy damage, if he died of the curse, he died Spiritual magic. In the magic association, who is more proficient in these two kinds of magic?"

Stephanie sneered: "That's a lot. But if you say that, I have a few goals."

Then she waved her hand and shouted, "Bury General Lewis first and put him in a nice dress."

Several soldiers came up immediately and began to wrap the body of the deceased with straw mats, preparing to take them to the manor in front.

At this time, a few soldiers followed, and the team leader rushed over, knelt down on one knee in front of Stephanie, and said in a panic, "Your Highness Princess, it's not good, everyone in General Lewis' family is dead. , and not a single one alive."

Stephanie's face darkened, and then she became angry. She gritted her teeth and said, "Everyone, please surround General Lewis' house first, and not a fly can be let go."

Then more than 100 people rushed to the manor in front and rushed in.

The garden is very clean and quiet. The team leader in charge of leading the way walked quickly at the front. As he led the way, he said, "Everyone in General Lewis' family has been thrown into the storage room on the third floor. Exactly the same."

Half of the soldiers stayed downstairs to guard the rotation in case the enemy came in.

The other half rushed into the house, rummaged through the cabinets to make sure that no one was hiding in the house, and then took Stephanie upstairs.

Stephanie, Roland and Andonara had just reached the third floor when they smelled a strong smell of blood.

Because this is indoors, there is no ventilation, and the smell is not known to be many times heavier than the outside.

By the time I got to the storage room, the smell suddenly became stronger.

Looking through the door, I saw at least thirty corpses, stacked naked in a small storage room.

There was black blood on the ground.

The deceased included men, women and children, all of them had severe sharp blade wounds all over their bodies, and their abdomens were cut open.

Stephanie's face became extremely pale, she could endure a corpse, so many corpses piled up together, it was a test of people's sexiness.

She covered her mouth, stepped aside, and almost vomited.

Roland stood in front of the door for a while, then walked back and said, "In the same situation as General Lewis, there is a weak element of magic in his body that is overflowing."

"I understand."

Stephanie didn't want to stay any longer, she quickly went downstairs, took a deep breath on the lawn for a while, and said to the people around, "burn this building down, I remember that Lewis has a biological younger brother. He is an honorary knight in the name of the nobleman, and told him that General Lewis died for the country, and now the status of the marquis is inherited by this younger brother. If he wants, I can perform the award ceremony for him. "

The squad leader next to him nodded again and again.

Then Stephanie returned to her carriage, and Roland and Andonara also got into the carriage.

The carriage swayed erratically.

Stephanie looked at Roland: "You really can't figure out the original appearance of those magic elements?"

"No." Roland shook his head: "This may also be due to my lack of skill. You can ask the masters of the Magic Association to identify it."

"no need."

Stephanie turned around, lifted the curtains, and looked out the window. Even though it was far away, the three buildings of the Royal City of France: the Temple of Light, the Square Corridor of the Magic Association, and the Royal Palace were clearly visible.

These three buildings form a wonderful equilateral triangle, which also indicates the balance of the three forces.

But now, Stephanie suddenly felt that the bigger the palace was, the bigger it was, but it was actually a little short.

She lowered the curtains again, looked at Roland and said, "Since he died of magic, then the Magic Association is very suspicious. I'm going to let them debate at this time, don't I want to tell them that I know something. Am I so stupid? ? Are you testing me?"

"No." Roland shook his head.

"Hmph." Stephanie snorted: "You magicians, all of you have thoughts, who knows what you think."

Andonara took Stephanie's hand and explained, "I know that Roland is not such a person. He simply thinks that you don't believe him very much. He didn't mean to test you."

Stephanie looked at Andonara, and then at Roland, who had an indifferent face. She smiled suddenly and said, "Sorry, I was in a bad mood just now, and I spoke rather aggressively. Please forgive me."

"It's okay." Roland waved his hand.

The carriage returned to the manor, and Stephanie said, "Your Excellency Roland, I'm going in to see my father, and I have to bring Andonara to protect me, so please stay in the manor by yourself, anyway, the son of gold can't die, I don't think you need an escort."

Roland was just about to continue reading those books of experience. Hearing what he wanted, he immediately went to the secret passage and reopened the library.

Then I sat down and read the previous content.

After reading this book, he picked up the next one. The cover of the book read "Aisi's Inspiration Experience". He thought it was a book of light or spiritual magic experience, but he opened it and saw, I found out that this thing is selling dog meat with sheep's head, and the cover outside is only used to fight rejection. The real content is actually a diary.

August 14th, XX

"I finally got Mrs. Ivanka. It seems that the slight human charm can indeed gradually work..."

September 22, XX

'Stephanie is really beautiful, and her body feels good, but she's too cold, she doesn't have any initiative when it comes to bonding, and she's very strong. I don't know if it's good or bad to be her husband... …'

Seeing this, Roland knew that this diary belonged to the concubine.

Ordinary people would definitely take this opportunity to read the diary, but Roland is not the kind of person who likes to peep at privacy. He closed the diary, put it back on the bookshelf, and picked up a new book of magical experience.

After Roland read another magic book, Andona pulled back, she shook Roland's arm, woke Roland from the book, and said, "Roland, the eldest princess needs you to help her, something is wrong. Variety."

Hmm...that's a hassle.

Roland was a little reluctant, but thinking that he had read so many books for free, he should have reciprocated, and followed Andona out of the library room.

When she came to the pavilion, Stephanie saw Luo Si and said, "Sorry for interrupting your pursuit of knowledge again. Your Excellency Roland, I have a question, what is your man's favorite thing?"

"Everyone likes something different, but if there's one thing men like in common, it's probably about the process of making kids."

Andonara covered her mouth and giggled, her cheeks a little red.

Stephanie smiled and said: "You are too sincere, I want to find an opportunity to ridicule you, but I can't do it. I went to see my father just now, and I want to ask him to lend me one or two royal guardians to drive me for a while. , but he refused."

"Well, why?"

Stephanie sneered: "He said, although he didn't know who assassinated the vice president or who killed the Lewis family, he felt that this was a test for me. If I pass, then I may continue to be eligible to compete for the throne, but if I fail, I will marry out in three months and become the third princess of the French kingdom to marry out in two hundred years.”

Roland shook his eyebrows and didn't speak.

This is someone else's family business, and he doesn't want to get involved.

Seeing Roland's unmoved appearance, Stephanie should have been angry, but for some unknown reason, she smiled and said, "I know, this time I became a joke. Obviously my strength is in In the royal family, except for the strongest father, but now that I am being targeted by others, I can't even find the shadow of the enemy, it's ridiculous, even I think so."

After finishing speaking, Stephanie lowered her eyelids, looking like she was hit.

Roland still didn't want to pay attention to her.

At this time, Andonara walked over, took Stephanie's hand, and said, "I will help you, if your father wants to marry you out, I will let Roland take you to Delbon City to hide. stand up."

After Roland heard it, he suddenly laughed.

He thought Andonara would say, 'You are my friend, no matter what, I will help you and protect you. ’

In the end, he was not optimistic about Stephanie, and maybe even didn't want to leave him, and he didn't want to part with his friends, so he wished Stephanie failed, and then followed him, and then the two became friends for life.

I can only say... Andonara is a little black.

Stephanie is a little smarter than Andonara, so she might not know Andonara's plan.

Suddenly, my stomach hurts again, and I want to laugh again.

The sweet and sour taste made her uterus twitch.

She had to cover her stomach and said tangled: "Do you want to help me, or do you want me to be unlucky."

Andonara smiled and didn't answer.

well! Stephanie sighed deeply.

At this time, Roland interjected: "Don't be discouraged, in fact, not only did you not understand the situation, but your father, as well as the Temple of Light, did not understand the situation. The Magic Association may know something, but you don't ask. ."

"How do you know that the Temple of Light can't figure out the situation, do you know the high-level officials of the Holy Land of Light?"

"Know a paladin."

"You can brag." Stephanie naturally didn't believe it: "How long have you been in the royal city, you already know the paladin."

"Isn't there a son of gold among the paladins..."

Stephanie waved her hand: "I have already investigated, your golden sons don't actually know each other very well, and there seems to be some conflict of interests. That golden son Shuke is the most valued by the Light God Cult in recent years. Newcomer, how could you possibly know someone."

"Really know, we were friends from the beginning." Roland said lightly.

Stephanie asked suspiciously, "Really know?"

"Forget it if you don't believe it." Roland didn't force it, it didn't matter to him whether others believed it or not.

"No, I believe it." Stephanie suddenly jumped up from the chair, and then jumped in front of Roland: "Since you are good friends, do me a favor!"

"Ask him out for you?" Seeing her bright eyes, Roland thought that Stephanie was also a little woman who bowed to Shuke's handsome appearance.

But Stephanie said, "It doesn't matter if you see it or not. Can you help me ask him for five red dragon scales?"

Um?

Roland was a little surprised: "What do you want that thing for?"

"Refining the golden potion." Stephanie said with bright eyes: "Although I am also a warrior, my talent is limited. But if I have the blood of a red dragon, it will be different. In that way, my upper limit can be raised a bit, even if You can't become a demigod, but there is still some hope that you will become a legend in your lifetime."

"It's precious."

Stephanie nodded again and again.

"No help."

Roland shook his head. Since it is very precious, it means that if these dragon scales are removed, it may affect the little dragon girl.

Roland is not personally familiar with Xiaolongnu, but no matter what she says, she is also her brother's woman... a mount?

For the sake of Stephanie, the eldest princess who hasn't met for ten days, she went to beg her brother to hurt her... mount, he couldn't do such a bad thing.

"Looks like you're bragging." Stephanie sighed in disappointment.

Roland knew she was agitating and was unmoved.

Seeing that Roland was not fooled, Stephanie felt a little depressed, but she soon cheered up and said, "Roland, I can see that you are very smart, I want to hire you to help me find the murderer behind the scenes, okay? I'll pay enough."
