She found that she still seriously miscalculated Ella's strength, but why can a girl who is less than 20 years old be so strong?This even made her unable to help but recall the content on the wanted warrant again. Maybe there is a more complicated story behind this incident.But the former swallowed all these doubts rationally, and she seemed to be able to hear a voice chattering tirelessly in her mind, asking her to trust the girl in front of her more.

The detective lady regarded this as her instinct and did not raise any questions.

Ella tried to talk to the monster that had completely surrendered to her. She was not worried about whether the other party would obey. This relationship was so strong that even if she ordered the other party to self-destruct now, it was just a thought.What she is worried about now is whether the other person is intelligent enough to have a conversation with her.

"How were you born, and what happened in the past few days in the catacombs?"

The skeleton continued to open and close its jaw, making a hoarse and incomprehensible sound, as if the voices of countless people overlapped.

Ella let go of her worries, and she could vaguely understand what the other person said.

The girl lowered her head and pondered for a moment.

The aggregated undead means that it was born from a large number of aggregated spiritual imprints. This was originally a natural and slow process, but it was artificially accelerated.

Five days ago, a few black-robed wizards came to the catacombs and used some kind of spell that the undead could not understand to accelerate the aggregation of the marks. They tried to engrave some kind of new brand on the body of the undead, but in the end they failed. Failed to be killed by the latter out of control, and devoured the soul.

It sounds like the story of a few hapless ghosts with empty ambitions.

Chapter 12 Urgency

But Ella did not feel at ease because of this result. After all, she failed to find the ashes of the lost dead on these scattered corpses.

And for a while, she couldn't explain why these dark wizards were able to find Nils' tomb accurately.

The girl tried to channel the dead dark wizards, but was disappointed to find that their souls had been completely digested, leaving only a few marks mixed with the polymer.

The clues of the corpse case seem to be completely interrupted here.

Ella's eyes darkened, feeling that there was probably no way to resolve the matter in a short time.

"There is no way to do this. Be optimistic. It is better to say that finding this information in a short time is already a big gain."

Ling touched her head from behind.

"The question now is what to do with this big guy."

The bloated body of the undead aggregate almost filled the passages of the catacombs, and even when it was crawling on the ground, it looked like a hill.

"There is no point in destroying it. It is difficult for us to guarantee whether such an environment will give birth to new aggregates."

Ling's consideration is correct. I am afraid that there will be no more tombs filled with millions of bones in the world. After the hymn has brought changes to the world, its birth is almost inevitable as time goes by.

Although this kind of monster that is only composed of harmless fragments is not terrifying, and a wizard of Ling's level can easily dismember it, but at the moment when the executors are short of manpower, it is also possible to be killed on the fragile ice floe. cause terrible disasters.

Ayla thought about it seriously, and then decided to let more gray-white fire essence pour into the monster's body, which caused a large group of gray-white flames to burn in the latter's entire chest cavity.

The temperature in the tomb seems to have become lower again. The monster's body has shrunk, and sharp bone spurs have grown from its joints. It no longer looks so bloated but has a strange beauty.

Her tone was no longer serious, but like telling a naughty child.

"Never be allowed to approach the entrance of the tunnel, guard here, expel dark wizards and dangerous creatures approaching, but cannot kill living people."

This order may allow evil dark wizards a chance to escape, but it also prevents it from harming ordinary people who stray into the tomb.

"I allow you to continue to grow stronger, and the imprints of reconciliation and awakening in the future will also become your food."

This command can be regarded as a magic released by Ella herself. These flame spirits will absorb the magic power contained in the undead aggregate itself and the air, and use them as nutrients to continue to split, and she does not need her to use her own strength to maintain it.

And as Ayla's magic, unless she herself loses control or dies, it will never fail or be defied.

The skull that was the head lowered down, pressing its forehead to the ground, gray-white flames dancing in its eye sockets.

Ella recognized the meaning it conveyed in its husky voice:

"Of order... my lord."

This should be the most appropriate way to deal with it.

Its existence may give birth to one ridiculous strange story after another in this city in the future, but in comparison, there is nothing bad about it.

-

The figures of the three reappeared on the Concorde Square, and the sky was getting dark at this time.

"Sorry, that's all I can do for the time being. Afterwards, you can try to investigate the stronghold and members of the Albion Brotherhood. If you have any useful clues, you can always tell me about it."

Ella's tone was low, and she seemed to be in a heavy mood.

The girl lifted the corner of her skirt and bowed slightly. Miss Melanie was relieved by her willingness to continue to help.

Although the reunion a few months later only lasted for a short afternoon, the ability and experience shown by the other party after he no longer concealed his identity gave Melanie a very high degree of trust.

She asked urgently:

"Then how should I contact you?"

This question made Ella and Ling look at each other and think about it for a few seconds, although according to Melanie, the arrest warrant on Ella has been lifted.

But they guessed that this was probably just a temporary concession made by the principal in order to avoid unnecessary losses.

The relationship between the alliance and Kleist is still very complicated. Just cooperation in this kind of matter will not allow them to reveal the specific address of the alliance stronghold.

The surrounding space began to fluctuate, and a small thing that looked like a bat but had multiple eyes squeezed its head out of the ripple-like space.

"It's called Beatrice, and she is my messenger. I will let it remember your breath. If you have any new clues, please contact me by summoning it."

After bidding farewell to Miss Melanie, Ella and Ling walked towards the Champs-Elysées Avenue where they lived before. The setting sun cast long black shadows behind the trees on both sides.

Ling looked at her profile, and suddenly asked:

"Not in a good mood?... Well, it's all written on your face. In fact, I don't understand. It's better to decide to see Kleist, or this time. Ella, are you here?" After Ascension Day, something has been wrong, it seems to have become a little too impatient."

Thinking back on her actions, Ella was a little upset for a while, and this emotion had been magnified to the point that she couldn't ignore it.

"Are you impatient... Maybe you are right, it seems to be true."

She tried to find the source of this emotion, and said with some hesitation:

"I don't know why...but I always have a vague hunch that we're running out of time to act."

This sounded unlucky words made Ling frown.

"Maybe this incident is really the dark wizard's attempt to collect magic materials, and it doesn't necessarily mean that Val Farmigne or her teacher is behind the scenes."

Ella shook her head.

"Even without this incident, I would take the initiative to find news about Farminie and Philip. This is not just hatred—their existence is a bit too dangerous. Before the real threat comes, all unstable things must be eliminated—— "

At this point, Ella suddenly felt that she could not continue talking. She seemed to have caught some inspiration.

[Before the real threat comes, all unstable factors must be eliminated. 】

This was an old man's voice that made her feel a little familiar, because it had been too long since she had talked to that person, and it took a few seconds for Ella to recall whose voice it belonged to.

She understood that at a certain moment, the old man who was recognized as the strongest wizard - Albert Kleist seemed to have said almost exactly the same words.

This feeling made Ella feel a little creepy for a while. What kind of mood did that old man who was as kind as an ordinary flower farmer in her memory have when he issued the arrest warrant?

Or, did he also have a premonition of something, so he started to take action?

Chapter 13 The Promised Future

"Ella—"

"Ella?"

Ling's voice brought her back from her thoughts, but within a few seconds Ayla fell silent again.

The former looked at her out-of-focus eyes, stretched out his hand and shook it in front of her.

"I'm in a daze again."

"Feel sorry......"

It wasn't until this time that the girl got out of the previous state and explained:

"I just thought of a lot of things that I had never considered before... such as why the principal suddenly became paranoid. In my impression, he was always a gentle person before."

"It's not that I'm going to forgive him for what he's done to me, I just want to know why? Is it a mental anomaly and a personality change that's out of control? Or what did he really find in Sibyl's legacy? ——If it’s the latter, I seem to have some vague premonitions now.”

"Maybe this world is like a flimsy ice floe floating on the sea. It only needs a slightly larger undercurrent to drag everything into the abyss. When I think about it, I don't—"

Ling raised her index finger to cover her mouth, and her soft lips were slightly deformed by pressing.

"Let's not talk about it. Even if we discuss it seriously, we won't get any results now. Maybe we will have an answer when we see Craster. Isn't it for this reason that we are going to see him?"

Saying that, she withdrew her fingers.

"So three weeks before that it's been a long time since we've had that opportunity?"

Ella was stunned, reluctantly accepting the statement.

Indeed, they have done everything they can do at the moment, and that is enough.There's no point in continuing to be nervous about an uncertain future, it's better to stay calm.Enjoy rare leisure during this waiting time.

A strange touch remained on her lips, and Ella subconsciously touched her lips with the tip of her tongue, then frowned.

"What a strange smell, what is this?"

Ling himself smelled it,

"Hmmm... maybe truffle fries? Weird at first. But after getting used to it, it seems to be okay."

"What's good...go wash your hands!"

Ella pushed her back towards No. 30 Champs-Elysees. When she opened the iron gate of the courtyard with a key, the girl suddenly felt an inexplicable emotion.

She recalled what Professor Adolf had said before leaving Nod this time:

[Think of it as a trip, a vacation. 】

If this is really just a trip, what happened on the way is too scary and complicated.

She remembered that she seemed to have seen such a sentence in an unknown novel:

"The most anticipated part of a journey is the journey home at the end."

If the concept of travel is expanded, then the current scene should be the beginning of this journey home.

After all, she hasn't been back for too long.
