Full-Time Wizard: Starting with Harvesting Wheat
Chapter 120 "Suicides"
If the suicide prevention ring on Theresa isn't removed, her future actions will become extremely troublesome.
If you just run around casually, you might get an electric shock that makes your head go numb.
Rather than letting problems arise later, it's better to pay the price now and completely eliminate this potential threat.
After observing the collar repeatedly with his True Sight Eyes and confirming that it had no other terrifying purpose besides electric shock, Roy said solemnly:
"It might hurt a little afterwards, just bear with it."
Theresa: "?"
"Please lift your head up, and remember not to move around, or you might get hurt," Roy instructed. Teresa hesitated for a moment, but still did as he said.
Her current posture is kneeling on the ground, with her head slightly tilted back, revealing her bare neck covered by a choker.
"They're here."
Roy said in a low voice.
A flash of silver light streaked across her body, and Teresa trembled violently as a powerful electric current surged through her, nearly causing her to faint.
Roy's sword strike created a gust of wind, triggering the suicide prevention zone.
However, when the collar was split in two, it was no longer Theresa's body that emitted electricity, but rather the clean cut itself.
"it's over."
Teresa paused for a moment, then finally stood up, albeit unsteadily.
In reality, the current in the suicide prevention circle is adjusted to a very limited extent to prevent the suicide victim from triggering the mechanism of the suicide prevention circle multiple times, thereby accumulating current and electrocuting themselves.
"Shall we take a break first?" Roy frowned.
"No!" Theresa said resolutely. "We have to deal with that uncle who committed suicide quickly! Ah, no!"
She suddenly realized she had said the wrong thing.
"It's not about solving his problem, it's about getting rid of his suicidal thoughts!"
"I know," Roy chuckled. "Tell me what that uncle looks like first?"
It's clear that the person Theresa mentioned who supposedly committed suicide didn't actually do so; they were forced into it by Gray. Either he had something on them, or...
Is it for the money?
Both are possible. In any case, finding him first and protecting him is the right thing to do.
Fortunately, although Teresa was still immature, her ability to express herself was not diminished, and she grasped the man's main characteristics in just a few words.
Roy listened and nodded knowingly. The characteristics were obvious; finding the person should be easy.
"Now, keep your promise and come with me." Roy held out his hand. "Help me clear away all the enemies in our path."
"it is good."
Teresa gripped the iron hand firmly.
Afterwards, Roy handed the food bucket that had been delivered last time to the person who brought the food, and carefully "instructed" him not to tell anyone about what had happened here.
After brandishing the cold, metallic sword in his hand, the man nodded hastily, solemnly assuring everyone that his mouth had been sewn shut.
Roy also had him bring a cloak and a towel, which he wrapped tightly around Teresa before leading her up to the ground.
On the way back to the tavern, because Theresa was with Roy, even if someone was curious about who the hooded person was, they could only peek from afar.
Finally, Roy took her back to his room and asked the people in the tavern to boil a pot of water.
It's unclear when Gray and the others last bathed Theresa; she already smelled like cow dung in a cowshed.
Just as Teresa began to undress, Roy suddenly realized that, given her current cognitive abilities, it seemed that she wouldn't resist if he watched her shower, or even offered to help her bathe. This was truly...
Undeniably, Teresa's body was approaching thirty years old and not fully developed, but it was clearly very different from a man's.
It possesses a unique allure.
"Flame, let's go out." However, Roy's expression remained clear, and the temptation ultimately failed to take hold, simply because he remembered a rule from his past life.
It's illegal to be an idiot!
inside the room.
Having been an orphan since childhood, Teresa naturally knows how to bathe herself.
But in previous years, she would always strip naked and jump into the icy river to wash, she had never washed in hot water like this before...
A hint of confusion suddenly appeared in her eyes.
In previous years, when was it?
Why does it feel like it was a long time ago?
How much time has passed exactly?
ten years?
Twenty years?
She couldn't remember.
Perhaps it was due to the misty air, but tears silently streamed down Teresa's face.
Like a sparkling pearl.
She swallowed back the sob.
At that moment, she seemed to remember something.
She recalled memories that had been buried deep in her mind.
……
After having dinner with Theresa, Roy decided to start with the man who "committed suicide".
Personally, he didn't really want others to know about Phaethon Prison, since it held too many secrets.
Although Gray and his group didn't search carefully, others might have.
Once those high-tech products are discovered, it will inevitably cause a bloodbath.
For example, suicide collars worn around the necks of prisoners.
Or perhaps, the pen that writes on the wall.
That's right, the prison administrators know the answers the prisoners wrote down, but they certainly didn't go to the cells to investigate. However, there aren't any security cameras installed in the prison.
That can only mean that the problem lies with the pen or the wall.
In cell 502, where Teresa was held, Roy checked the walls and found nothing wrong.
If we assume that the walls of each cell are identical, then we can deduce that the culprit is the pen.
Perhaps, as long as you write on the wall with a pen, the writing will automatically be transmitted to the management personnel?
In short, any of these illogical occurrences that appear in Blackwater Territory would likely cause immense losses.
Don't misunderstand, it was the struggle for them that caused the loss of life.
Of course, aside from the so-called loss of life, what Roy really cared about was always monopolizing Phaethon.
In any case, he could not allow this underground prison to be exposed to the world again.
But at the same time, Gray and the others must be punished as they deserve, and the "suicide victim" must be rescued from his misery.
So, there's only one thing we can do: catch Gray and his gang on the spot when they try to harm the "suicide"!
He had actually considered using his power and status as a knight to force the sheriff to take action and take Gray and the others away.
Unfortunately, the tide was not in his favor.
Gray Blacksmith Shop, which can be considered the best blacksmith shop in Blackwater Territory, has long been the pillar of Dragontooth Town, exporting countless iron products, which the people of Dragontooth Town are proud of.
If this blacksmith shop closes down, their foreign trade will be affected, and they may very well return to the extreme poverty they were in decades ago!
As the ferryman who led Longya Town to this situation, any normal person would feel some pressure.
"There is pressure, but not much." Roy walked into Gray's blacksmith shop, looking around amidst the clanging of iron, searching for the man's figure.
"To me, this was actually a large-scale moral blackmail, but unfortunately, my moral values have always been weak."
"I'm not proud of this, but in the Blackwater Territory, this uninhibited mindset is the right thing to do!"
Finally, before Gray could approach him to talk, Roy spotted the suicide victim in the corner—the one who perfectly matched Teresa's description!
