Natalie's magical growth record

Chapter 1119 Speculation on the origin and purpose of the stalker

【who…】

Natalie was immediately alert, and was about to look back and gather a new round of magic elements to defend against a possible attack. At this time, a howling wind quietly cut through the void, causing the footsteps that should have continued to make sounds for an instant. Stopped abruptly.

"You weren't marked, were you?"

As the gust of wind subsided, just as she had expected, Cyrus stopped the footsteps in time and continued to approach her. At this moment, Cyrus was tossing a blue magic gem with a relaxed expression and looking at her current situation. location.

"Let me confirm it…"

Without enough time to thank her, Natalie quickly followed the questions and sensed the flow of magic power in her body.

After about ten seconds, she shook her head slightly, but did not speak rashly. She carefully waited for the sage assistant in the combat field to start a new topic.

"Then you continue to complete your commission, and I will go to interrogate the situation. Remember, don't go too far before I return."

"Um…!"

Natalie nodded again. Although she had many questions about what had just happened, her long-term teacher's teachings and some instinctive premonitions about how to control the situation allowed her to temporarily suppress her doubts and decided to listen to the other party first. arrange.

Nodding in appreciation, Cyrus did not say any more, and directly lifted the isolation barrier that had been instantly deployed. At the moment when the barrier was lifted, he used the wind magic gem in his hand to continue a [Wind Shackles] magic.

After doing all this and carefully checking again whether there were any other enemies in the surrounding environment, Cyrus immediately turned decisively and led the bound strange man away from the grassland where Natalie was currently located.

Natalie stared at this scene blankly, and for a moment she couldn't believe that this matter, which was likely to contain greater danger, could be resolved so quickly.

Moreover, the enchantment and binding magic with wind magic attributes that Cyrus used before, right?

She was deeply confused about this at first, and almost thought that her guess about Cyrus's magical properties was wrong, but after seeing the special type of gem in the opponent's hand that was obviously different from ordinary magic gems, and seemed to have complex magic array patterns engraved on the surface, , she is not so confused anymore.

She heard from her teacher that when they deal with certain criminals who do not need to be killed immediately, judges often carry certain magic gems that solidify the magic of certain binding areas. It seems that the one Cyrus used just now is the one.

This was the first time she had seen the kind of military magic gem that was said to be made by a top blacksmith, and she couldn't help but have some associations with it.

Of course, this state of thoughts not lasting long, she quickly forced herself to concentrate, preparing to collect the herbs and grass materials she had picked before thinking about other issues.

At this moment, Cyrus also completed the most basic inquiries about the stalker, and gradually only two or three questions that the stalker was unwilling to answer before were left.

"Where did you get the previous information?"

Slightly deepening the pressure he created through pure magic elements, Cyrus repeated the previous question that he had not been able to answer with an increasingly cold expression.     “No comment.”

As before, even though the fatal part of the body was held against the magical element that could burn the skin at any time, the person who had followed Natalie before showed no signs of surrender.

"I understand, then I won't force you."

Although Cyrus said this frankly. In fact, he did not give the other party a chance to relax, and directly increased the magic intensity for interrogation on the side of the other party...

Seeing that Beliti still had an expression that clearly didn't want to believe it, Alina immediately patted the 'mysterious' cornerstone on the shoulder again: "Just when you were saying that you were not qualified to refuse such a task, I Try to analyze this matter from another angle..."

After a deliberate pause to confirm that Beliti had slowly paid attention to her words, Alina continued with some relief: "Is there a possibility that Mr. Harlan will give you this time?" The real purpose of such a mission is not for you to find out any information, but for you to take this opportunity to clear your suspicions?"

"Clear the suspicion? But I don't remember that I provoked those crazy people..."

As soon as Beliti finished speaking, she quickly covered her mouth, almost showing signs of abnormality.

He stared at the leader of the sage assistant next to him in disbelief for several seconds. He finally spoke with an attitude of seeking confirmation without wanting to admit it: "You mean the key?"

"This is my idea. After all, didn't we amplify the existence of the key in order to deceive them?"

Seeing that Beliti's expression became uncontrollably depressed and desperate, Alina thought for a while and kindly reminded her: "Of course, they are just a little suspicious, and they have not yet determined that you were the one who assisted me in killing him. With the help of some of their members, after all, you did not take the initiative to contact or contact the senior leaders of several other schools during the entire operation, nor did you expose your appearance to those people. So, if my judgment is correct, If so, in their eyes, you are at most just a fringe person who has a superficial understanding or even no knowledge of the 'Sky Scholar'. What you need to do is to strengthen their understanding of the latter. As for gathering information to lead out Sayila, it is just incidental. In this way, wouldn’t it be possible to explain Lord Harlan’s intention of asking you to carefully select your companions?”

[Exclude those who are obviously related to the school, and only bring some people who will not arouse suspicion...]

Beliti wanted to say this, but when he thought of his own situation in the words of the leader of the Sage Assistant beside him, he suddenly lost interest in answering.

"You still look depressed?"

Beliti glanced at the leader of the sage assistants who could be said to have pushed him into the current situation with his own hands. In the end, he knew enough not to blurt out his true thoughts.

"Then as compensation for accidentally letting you take those risks, I will help you choose your companions. What do you think?"

While speaking, Alina raised the corners of her mouth without concealing her emotions.

"Thank you very much for your kindness, but I think I won't bother you anymore. After all, you know that after your guidance just now, this matter will no longer bother me..."

Seeing that terrifying smile that seemed to carry countless evil thoughts, Beliti shuddered instinctively. Without hesitation, he immediately put on a smile that was full of awe and submission, and repeatedly waved his hands to reject this kindness that he could not bear...
