Lord Highlander

  Chapter 881 868. Quiet

As the head of the Law Enforcement Team of the Magic Union, Archmage Alfonso, in the eyes of the wizards of Wilkes City, has a higher status than the president of the Magic Union of Wilkes City, because he is not only responsible for supervising the authority All the heresies in Wilkes City, and also supervise the bad behavior of all magicians in Wilkes City.

The magicians in the Law Enforcement Corps have long tracked down those evil mages who sold their souls to demons or sacrificed their lives to the undead. Those mages are usually stuck at a certain bottleneck, have no progress for a long time, and are desperate for power .

  In fact, the attitude of the magic union towards black magic and undead magic is not to eradicate it when it is seen.

The main reason why the law enforcement team traced the Black Magic Retreat is also because the black magicians in the Black Magic Retreat always try to open the door of demons, summon the demons in hell, try to obtain powerful power from the demons, and use this to Strengthen yourself.

  By doing this, the magicians of the Black Magic Priory are taking risks with the Roland Continent. Once the demon door is opened and cannot be closed, it will be a disaster not only for the Grimm Empire...for the entire Roland Continent.

  The existence of the Magic Union Law Enforcement Team is mainly to allow magicians to restrain themselves and eliminate all unstable factors in the magic world.

Every magician in Wilkes City needs to recite the oath in front of Archmage Alfonso on the day he formally becomes a magician from a magic apprentice, and the 'potential' possessed by Alfonso is An eye that all mages fear—the eye of true knowledge.

  Mage Christopher has long heard that the eyes of Archmage Alfonso can see through lies and falsehoods.

  …

  A group of magicians and lords from Wilkes City gathered in the House of Representatives in Wilkes City, discussing how to get the most benefits from Invercargill Forest...

  For the noble lords, as long as they don’t provoke the ghost-striped red ants in the Dark Worm Valley, the Invercargill Forest of Warcraft is actually nothing to be afraid of.

   But Christopher Magician needs the red copper mine in Invercargill Forest. He spent so much effort, in fact, he wanted to get that mine in the end.

  He is considering how to persuade these noble lords to send out troops to completely occupy the forest.

   Archmage Alfonso appeared in the chamber of the House of Representatives. Holding a long staff in his hand, he stood in front of Magician Christopher with a straight face, staring at Magician Christopher with a pair of deep eyes, and asked him:

   "Christopher Magician, I only give you this one chance, I need you to tell me the truth of the whole thing, did you kill Joel Singh?"

   When Archmage Alfonso asked this sentence, the entire parliament hall was in an uproar. The magicians stood up from their seats, propped their hands on the table, leaned out, and stared at Magician Christopher in shock.

  In recent years, as he got older, Archmage Alfonso rarely investigated cases himself.

  The case of the disappearance of Magician Joel Singh, in fact, the law enforcement team also received a report from the family members of Magician Joel Singh, but the sudden disappearance of a young magician is not a particularly serious matter.

  Many magicians are autistic and withdrawn. It is not unusual for these magicians to suddenly disappear from everyone's sight.

  Some magicians have gone too far. Even if the awakened magic pool is at the peak of life, although life is destined to be a smooth road, they will inexplicably abandon everything they own and leave quietly from the circle they live in.

  After the disappearance of Magician Joel Singh, except for his family members inquiring all over the city, the law enforcement team did not pay much attention to it.

   "Now you tell me the truth, I can think that you voluntarily surrendered and confessed some facts, which can be properly considered in sentencing in the future..."

Master Alfonso's voice changed, he stared at Master Christopher with his wise eyes, and said to him: "But if you want to lie, I will first deprive you of your status as a magician, You will be put on trial."

  The magicians present could not help but let out a low cry in unison. Doing so was like telling the Christopher magician that if he refused to admit it again, he would be tried as a civilian.

  If Christopher the magician becomes a commoner, then what he kills is a magic nobleman, and the only thing waiting for him is the gallows on the execution ground.

   Archmage Alfonso tore open a magic scroll, and a magic shackle appeared out of nowhere in front of Christopher the magician. The black shackle floating in mid-air surged with a faint magical breath.

   "No matter what, you will be temporarily detained by the Magic Union Law Enforcement Team."

Master Christopher's face turned pale, and he held the podium with one hand, his hair was a little messy, he hesitated and stretched out his hands, lowered his head and said in a very low voice: "I killed Joel Singh! "

  When he said these words, the entire council hall erupted.

  Magicians are actually a community of interests. Even if there are some grievances and grievances between the two parties that cannot be resolved, they will generally not lead to the death of the other party.

   What's more, mage Christopher has been touted by mages as a hero of the Wilkes Magic Guild recently. In order to fight for his own rights, he did not hesitate to stand up and fight against the traditional forces of noble lords.

   Even many aristocratic lords want to cooperate with him to develop the Invercargill Forest... He recently stole the limelight in Wilkes City.

  He even became the diamond man in the eyes of Mrs. Wilkes.

  If Christopher Magician hadn’t pleaded guilty on the spot, no one would believe that he actually murdered a young magician.

  Many magicians immediately thought that maybe someone was deliberately framing...but Archmage Alfonso was standing here again.

Afterwards, everyone watched as the magician Christopher stretched his hands into the shackles floating in the air, like an ostrich with its head stuck in the sand, and was taken out of the House of Representatives by two young magicians from the Law Enforcement Corps. hall.

  …

  In the past few days, the people of Wilkes City have been paying attention to the murder of Christopher Magician.

However, the interrogation process was extremely simple. Magician Christopher voluntarily confessed his motive for killing Magician Joel Singh. It all stemmed from the fact that Magician Joel Singh came to Wilkes City from a According to the aboriginal people, they heard that there is a copper mine in the Invercargill Forest of Warcraft.

  After Joel Singh knew about this, he immediately found Christopher, his alchemy mentor, and wanted to invite him to explore the Invercargill Forest together.

  Master Christopher readily agreed to his student invitation, and the two also chose to enter Invercargill Forest during the gap period after the beast tide.

  However, things changed when the magician Christopher saw the faults in the veins of this copper mine, and the natural magic red copper was actually precipitated.

  Such a huge amount of wealth made Christopher Magician's blood boil, and it was also when Joel Singh climbed out of the rock crevice, his defenseless appearance made him feel that he had an opportunity...

The first thing Master Christopher needs to do is to compensate—to compensate the family members of Magician Joel Singh. He spent almost half of his family property to buy a sentence from the family members of Magician Joel Singh' forgive'.

  Yes, Magician Christopher was forgiven by the family of Magician Joel Singh, and he also paid a large fine.

Afterwards, the Law Enforcement Team of the Magic Union publicly announced that Christopher Magician would be exiled to the Great Battlefield. He needs to live in the Great Battlefield for 30 years, or successfully kill a thousand Crypt Demons before he is eligible to return to the Grimm Empire. .

  …

  After such a scandal occurred on the side of the Magic Union, the good image of the Magic Union in the eyes of the citizens of Wilkes City plummeted.

In order to restore the image of the Magical Union, the Magical Union published an apology letter in Wilkes City's weekly newspaper on July 24th. The apology was aimed at all citizens of Wilkes City. I apologize for the appearance of such a magician who lost his conscience.

   But even so, before this trend completely subsides, all magicians in Wilkes City will be stabbed in the back by the public...

  The Territorial Administration of Wilkes City Hall finally couldn't withstand the pressure of public opinion. The director of the administration made a public apology speech on the Wilkes City Municipal Plaza.

   On July 26th, the House of Representatives announced that Viscount Suldak's application for the Invercargill Warcraft Forest's territorial development rights had been officially approved.

  At this time, the garrisons of the towns of the Luthor Legion have received the military order to cancel the return to Bena City, and restarted the rectification of the towns, and started to clean up the remaining ghost-striped red ants in the wild.

  The turmoil finally subsided.

  …

  Wilkes City's municipal square has accumulated a large number of hard armored skins of ghost-striped soldier ants, and a team of porters responsible for moving the hard armored skins lined up to transport these hard armored skins to Bena Province.

This is the fourth time that the businessman Malakom has transported hard armor leather to Bena City. Nacheng, working as a short-term laborer for half a month.

  A magic caravan was parked next to the municipal square, and Hathaway and Beatrice's personal maids were waiting outside the magic caravan.

  At this moment, the car was full of parting sadness, and did not do those indescribable things.

  Hathaway's eyes were red, she just cried.

"Why are you crying? It's not that I haven't seen you for a long time. In fact, Dodan Town is not too far from Bena City. I will go to Bena City to see you in a few days." Suldak sat beside Hathaway. , holding her slender and soft waist with one hand, comforting her.

  Although the tight leather armor completely insulates the good touch, it can outline a nearly perfect body curve.

  Hathaway has become thinner recently, and when she nodded and wiped her tears, the collarbone on her shoulders looked extraordinarily delicate.

  She was sitting in the magic caravan, tightly holding Suldak's arm, thinking that it would be a long time before we could meet again, and she was filled with infinite sadness.

  The hustle and bustle of the square can't wash away the melancholy here.

   "Remember to write us a letter every two weeks..." Hathaway, who had just cried, spoke with a heavy nasal voice.

  Suldak felt warm in his heart, and immediately said: "I will write every week, and I will write in detail all the trivial things that happened in Dodan Town."

The round-faced Beatrice didn't feel much parting. She stared bravely at Suldak with big eyes, and took the opportunity to say to him, "Why don't we just stay...to accompany you .”

   "Aren't you afraid that your family will send people over directly to arrest us and detain us?" Hathaway glared at Beatrice and reprimanded in a low voice.

   "Just don't let them find it!" Beatrice said optimistically.

   "And then... what about our wedding?" Hathaway said with a headache.

   Beatrice smiled heartlessly, and the sad mood faded a lot for a while.

"When the garrison mission of the Bailin plane is completed this time, when Marquis Luther returns to Bena City from the Tarapakan area, and the business of the Gefiro family gradually improves, I will return to Bena City to marry you! Suldak pinched Beatrice's greasy face and promised softly.

   "Yes." Beatrice readily agreed, and then said distressedly: "It seems that we have to wait for a long time..."

Lovers always feel that time passes quickly when they get along, and the three of them didn't feel like talking for long in the magic caravan. They heard the maids knocking on the door gently outside, reminding Hathaway and Beatrice in the car, He will soon return to Bena City with the flow of people in the transport team.

  Hathaway pulled Beatrice out of the magic caravan together, their golden curly hair was extremely dazzling in the sun.

   Suldak waved goodbye to Hathaway and Beatrice after being sent to the portal.

  …

"Viscount Suldak, do you have time tonight? I have an appointment with the largest slave owner in Wilkes City. I heard that a group of dwarves came to his slave camp recently. Don't you want to buy some who are good at digging? The dwarves of the mines?"

  Businessman Malakom emerged from behind Suldak and said to him.

  He saw Hathaway and Beatrice just now, waiting in the distance.

  Businessman Malakom has some rules of his own. He believes that if a noble lady from such a noble family cannot gain the favor of the other party, it is best to stay away.

  At the beginning of the month, Suldak mentioned to the businessman Malakom that he wanted to buy miners, but he still remembered it!

   "Okay!" Suldak agreed.

   Originally planned to leave Wilkes City in the afternoon and return to Dodan Town.

   But now he had to change his itinerary and stay an extra night in Wilkes City.

  Businessman Malakom has to wait for the supplies to be transported to the Municipal Square before he can get out.

Suldak took the opportunity to go shopping in the nearby shopping street, and bought some small gifts for Selena, who was far away in Dodan Town, and Natasha, Rita, old Sheila, and little Peter at home. .

  The vicinity of the municipal square belongs to the most prosperous area in Wilkes City, and the products in the shops here are also items with a little luxury.

Although Suldak got a lot of magic spar in this beast tide, his own consumption concept has not yet changed, and he is not very interested in these jewelry that can only be bought with a few pieces of magic spar Son.

   Finally, I bought a set of silver tea sets and several bolts of magicweave cloth from a trading firm.
