Full-Time Magister: Time Stop Talent, Many Children, Many Blessings
Chapter 13 Invitation to the Trial
Several men in grey robes looked at the priest in black robes as if they had a tacit understanding.
The Black Vatican has a strict hierarchy.
Although they had seen the man in blue a few times, he always wore a mask and his voice was deliberately disguised, making it impossible for them, a group of people in gray, to find out who he was.
The only one who might be able to find out the true identity of the man in blue.
Only the priest in black.
At this moment, everyone knew the consequences of betraying their superiors, but they were even more afraid of Lu Heqiu in front of them!
If the people in black can't reveal who the people in blue are supporting today, their fate will be no better than that of those black beast demons!
"I...I've never seen the man in blue before!"
The man in black who had spoken was no longer arrogant; his voice trembled slightly as he spoke. Although he hadn't witnessed Lu Heqiu's attack, the black beast that had vanished and the lingering scent in the air were telling him what had just happened.
"Every time I saw him, he was always wrapped up tightly; no one has ever seen his true face!"
He was afraid that Lu Heqiu wouldn't believe him.
The man in black added a few more details as he spoke.
His understanding of the blue-clad men was actually about the same as that of the gray-clad men.
Even if the judges themselves came to interrogate him, the answer they got would be no different from Lu Heqiu's: he truly didn't know who the man in blue was!
"So what is your mission here?"
Lu Heqiu asked very detailed questions, afraid of missing any information and losing control of the subsequent events.
"To train these new recruits, and to make these black monsters obey."
"Waiting for my boss to appoint me."
"However, we haven't seen Blue Robe for almost two months. They say the Tribunal is investigating us closely after the disaster in Bo City and won't let us contact him without permission."
The man in black told the truth, even revealing things that Lu Heqiu hadn't asked, in exchange for a chance to live.
Lu Heqiu pondered for a moment. If he wanted to capture the man in blue, he would have to continue to lie low here disguised as a man in black. But how long would he need to lie low? Three to five days would be fine, but if he really had to lie low for several months, it would be completely not worth it for Lu Heqiu.
He wasn't a member of the Inquisition; at most, taking the Black Vatican's blue robes would only get him some bounty.
It's more worthwhile to do tasks than to lie low for several months.
It's even more worthwhile to continue pursuing Mu Nujiao!
"never mind."
"You guys are lucky."
The silver star in Lu Heqiu's hand was formed almost instantly with a thought. The spatial hand pressed down on the group, and with a gentle squeeze, Lu Heqiu shattered their bones with his mind control, leaving them without any chance of survival.
Although living members of the Black Vatican are more valuable, Lu Heqiu is still unwilling to risk exposing his abilities.
After doing all that, Lu Heqiu pressed the earpiece again and spoke.
"nailed it."
"The reason for the screams was that there were members of the Black Vatican infiltrating the area. They were torturing a group of unruly Black Beasts. I have now dealt with both the Black Vatican members and the Black Beasts."
"There's still the Black Beast Demon's slime on the ground; anyone with a little experience could tell."
Lingling, hearing Lu Heqiu's voice again on the other end of the earpiece, breathed a sigh of relief and immediately replied, "Okay, I'll notify the people from the Tribunal to go over there right now."
"And the Hunter's Alliance, I told them to raise the bounty."
......
"What's wrong, Sister Mu?"
Ai Tutu and Mu Nujiao stood by the roadside. They had just come out of the mall and were standing by the roadside preparing to go back. However, Mu Nujiao's eyes lingered on two cars that sped past on the roadside.
Mu Nujiao only turned her attention back to the two cars when they were completely parked in the roadside parking spaces.
"Nothing much."
"Look at those two cars."
"One car was escorted by a police car, and the other had white license plates; they must be either military judges or members of the inquiries committee!"
"It seems Lu Heqiu was right after all; there is indeed a problem here. But what kind of problem is it that the Magic Association didn't send anyone, but the Inquisition itself?"
Ai Tutu followed Mu Nujiao's gaze and, after only a moment's pause on the car, recognized its true owner.
"It's someone from the trial committee, Sister Mu."
"Even if the military mages don't use Skyhawks in the city, they'll still use Jeeps. These cars are only for members of the Inquisition!"
"Should we go over and take a look? The people from the trial committee are all here, so nothing bad is bound to happen."
Ai Tutu was bursting with curiosity, staring longingly at the alley they had entered. Mu Nujiao was equally curious, looking at the crowds around them.
Hearing Ai Tutu's words, she did not refuse, but simply nodded and said, "Then let's observe from a little distance."
"Let's go."
The two followed the flow of people in that direction. Although they were outside the alley, they could see the situation inside clearly. The people sitting in that car were indeed from the Tribunal.
In addition to the two judges on the trial panel, there was another person who was clearly the officer in charge.
She wore a charcoal gray business suit and high heels, with long, straight black hair cascading down her back—a typical mature and sophisticated style—yet her face held a hint of sternness.
Only after the two judges had examined the scene did he speak to the boy in front of him.
"You're Lu Heqiu, the one Lingling was talking about?"
Lu Heqiu stood in front of her, his gaze sweeping over Leng Qing. Leng Qing was indeed very beautiful, exuding a cold aura, but this coldness was not the kind of coldness that Mu Ningxue had, which kept people at a distance.
It's more of a businesslike coldness combined with a sense of aloofness, the aloofness of a mature woman.
"Yes, I am Lu Heqiu."
"Eight black beast demons, one cursed beast demon, plus one black-robed priest and four gray-robed figures. Is the check clear?"
Lu Heqiu spoke calmly and confidently, without the usual panic one would expect from a young man facing a trial.
Leng Qing glanced at the judge beside her, who nodded slightly before she spoke again.
"Hmm, did these guys reveal any useful information before they died?"
"Yes, they said this is the rendezvous point with the Blue-Clad One. They're here to train the Black Beast Demons, waiting for the Blue-Clad One to activate them, but..."
Lu Heqiu gestured with his lip towards the crowd of onlookers outside.
"Under these circumstances, unless that person in blue is an idiot, he's unlikely to reappear."
"This outpost has probably been abandoned."
Leng Qing glanced at Lu Heqiu with surprise. She had thought that Lingling had called because this guy had gotten into trouble and was being surrounded by the Black Vatican, which was why she had brought so many people to bolster her image.
Judging from this guy's answer...
He's not stupid!
At least they're willing to use their brains.
"Yes, the information you provided is very useful."
"After we go back and verify, we will give you a reward based on the value of the information."
"If you'd like to become a trainee judge in the judicial system in the future, feel free to contact me!"
