Witch, don't be so lazy

Two more people arrived later.

They are all second-level mages.

The dean of the Asda City Magic Academy, the head of the Winter Magic Chamber of Commerce, and the head of the Turner family.

Their reaction was almost the same as Deshup's. After interrogating Estherin and chatting briefly with An Keduo, they immediately took action.

Because there are so many things to deal with.

The most urgent task is to report to the city lord, then strengthen the security inside the city of Asda, and then find those mages who have been bewitched and remove the influence on them, and also urgently notify the ruins of Taiqir.

In addition to the new member Esther, there are at least two other members of the Disaster Cult - Silver Fang and Lady Rose.

The former is a necromancer, who seems to be holding a "Staff of the Deep Serpent" in his hand; and the latter vampire seems to be the "Messenger of Withering" named in the letter, who plans to use the collected orphans to hold a blood feast in the ruins of Tekir. She has already grasped the details of the wizards in the city of Asda, and cannot attack the troll tribe at will, as that may be a trap.

Of course, in addition to the major events mentioned above, there is also a small thing.

starting today.

The Page family, which had been prominent in Arthda for over fifty years, was doomed to vanish into thin air.

If the internal structure is to undergo new changes, it is necessary to redivide industries and responsibilities.

only.

In addition to the seven major forces, there is also an ordinary little wizard who seems to be able to get something from it.

The news spread like wildfire.

literal meaning.

The temporary base of the Adventurer's Guild far away in the ruins of Teqir.

In the huge temporary stone house, Smoya, Doron and Matika were still discussing how to attack the troll tribe.

Suddenly, with the buzzing of the communicator, the three of them turned their heads at the same time.

They were willing to use long-distance communication, which meant that there was urgent news coming from Asda City, and it was unknown whether it was good or bad.

Smoya was the first to walk over, picked up the communicator, activated it according to a specific method, and listened attentively.

The other two people had been observing his expression. When they saw Smoya's brows furrowed and his expression switching between astonishment and shock, they couldn't help but feel their hearts sink, feeling that it was not good news.

"What happened?"

As soon as the call ended, Matika couldn't wait to speak.

"..."

Smoya looked strange, hesitant to speak. He pulled out the phonograph next to the transmitter, which recorded the content of the conversation. As he handed it over, he couldn't help but say,

"Matika, the good kid you mentioned has met Estherin, but...you guys should listen to it yourselves. You can't leave me alone in confusion."

……

The Page family estate.

The gate of the manor was ruthlessly destroyed, and the impolite guests broke directly into the owner's room.

But the guards didn't dare to say a word, because they recognized that those people were big shots who could call the shots in the city. Not to mention stopping them, they wanted to run away on the spot - with such a big scene, anyone with a normal mind would know that something might happen to the Page family.

It's a pity that they didn't dare to move, because there was a little girl in the middle who told them to stay here and she would be interrogated later. No one knew her background. The person in charge of the Iris Workshop and the head of the Turner family nodded in agreement.

I've never heard of the city lord being married. Where did this daughter come from? An illegitimate daughter?

Enter Esther's room.

The three of them began to rummage through the drawers.

"The list of mages who inserted hints, tsk, most of the first-level mages have done something wrong, Estherin, sigh."

"She sent so much to the Disaster Cult, she was really generous."

"...Group chat... Hey, Miss Anke, what's wrong?"

Deshup found Anke squatting, motionless.

In front of her, the lock on the drawer had been unlocked, revealing a hideous skull inside, and the girl's fingers had just touched the skull.

"Isn't this the tool Eselyn mentioned for communicating with the Calamity Cult? Is there something wrong with it? Is it coated with poison?"

Deshup asked repeatedly.

"No, it's nothing. It's just that the negative energy above is quite strong and scared me."

Anko picked up the skull and showed it to the two of them.

But her mind was elsewhere.

What the hell!

System, Tongbao, what are you doing?!

An Ke couldn't help but let out a cry in her heart.

Chapter 106 City Lord

The secret room of the manor.

An Ke finally came back to his senses and fell into a long period of thought.

Just now, for unknown reasons, when she reached out to touch the black skull, the system suddenly started popping up strange messages, and at the same time absorbed the spirituality on it, and finally gave her an [Apostle of the Eternal Death Star].

But unlike the last time when she became the priestess of the Dark Sun, her consciousness did not travel to the spirit world this time, she did not see the image of the Eternal Death Star, nor did she receive any mission.

Perhaps it was because he was a first-rank priest back then, but now he's just an ordinary apostle? Or was it the difference between the Dark Sun Lord and the Eternal Death Star?

After all, the former is just a newborn god, relatively weak, and even anxious to capture people from the church to be used as saints; while the latter is a very ancient and powerful existence, symbolizing death and the end.

But then again.

How did he suddenly become an apostle? There shouldn't be a shortage of believers on the "Eternal Death Star", right?

An Ke noticed a line of words: "The influence of the same external force has been detected, and the remnants of the scorching sun are still active."

The remnants of the scorching sun. According to the information the system had given, the Lord of Dark Sun was the fusion of this thing and the remains of the Dark Sun in the Abyss.

Combined with the word "same origin" mentioned above, does this mean that the Dark Sun Overlord and the Eternal Death Star are related in some way? Can putting them together create a bond?

Their names seem to be related to celestial bodies?

Encore acted as if he didn't understand, but judging from the system's meaning, it initiated a response in the identity of the anonymous Dark Sun Priest, and the Eternal Death Star responded directly. It was really outrageous.

However, there is still a crucial issue.

Why can the system connect to the Eternal Death Star through this skull? Isn't the organization that follows and serves it the Well of Silence?

It seems that the Cult of Disaster doesn't have any gods they believe in. Their top leaders are the patriarchs of the major branches. For example, the patriarch of the northern branch is Dachis, the "Serpent of the Abyss".

Anko frowned.

Talk about it.

The way Eselin communicated with the Disaster Cult was not through black snakes. It was obvious that Thornes was communicating with them through black snakes at that time.

Anke had previously thought that it was because the skull was more advanced and could communicate directly over long distances. Although this thing did seem to be more precious - just like when she chatted with Celine Weier in the Papal States through the Dark Sun Lord, this skull seemed to have also borrowed the power of the Eternal Death Star to achieve long-distance communication - but this did not seem to be something the Disaster Cult should have.

So she thought of a not-so-good possibility.

Could it be that in addition to the Cult of Disaster, the Well of Silence is also eyeing the city of Asda?

Two dark organizations cooperated?

A group of chaotic evil lunatics and a group of notoriously insane necromancers. Although the probability is very small, it is not impossible. The only question is how much benefit will it take for them to unite?

According to Eslin, the Disaster Cult intended to use the "Abyss Serpent Staff" to fight against the Lord of Kunda City, and then wait for an opportunity to summon the evil spirit that bewitched the Asda family in the past, completely destroy the entire city, and finally let the necromancer called "Silver Fang" be promoted to the third level, and at the same time the vampires in the ruins of Taiqir can also complete the blood feast.

In return, Esther can also transform into a corpse witch with the help of evil spirits and gain a long life.

An Ke had previously thought that there was no problem, that it was completely the plan of the Calamity Cult, but if you consider that the necromancer of the Well of Silence was also involved in the incident, then...

What are they seeking?

And as for that unknown evil spirit, Esther must be talking nonsense. She actually said that the evil spirit was not eliminated at all. Not only did the Lord of Kunda City keep the summoning ritual, he might even have frequent communications with the evil spirit in private.

Even after she drank the truth serum, she still said the same thing. Because it was too outrageous, everyone thought that Esther was really crazy. No wonder she associated with the Calamity Cult.

Is she completely crazy, or has she actually been deceived?

"The negative energy on this skull is truly extraordinary. Hmm, why can't it be used? Is it bound to Estherin? Or did Estherin lie and not tell us the true method of use?"

Deshup looked at the thing in his hand, feeling both moved and confused.

"It seems possible."

An Ke felt inexplicably guilty when she spoke, but then she thought, it’s not her fault that the skull is broken, it’s all the system’s fault, Miss An Ke is also innocent.

"Don't touch it for now. We'll take these things back to the city lord. The old dean and the others should be waiting."

Patriarch Turner paused. He heard some noise and turned around. "Ah, the city guards are coming. I'll go give them some instructions."

"Row."

When the Page family estate was completely blocked and controlled, the three of them quickly interrogated the guards and some family members, then headed straight for the city center with their belongings.

The destination is the landmark building of Asda City, the tall tower with a giant sword and a rock dragon on top.

……

This was An Ke’s first time stepping into the City Lord’s Mansion.

Even stranger than I imagined.

It is clearly an extremely cold winter, but here you can see endless green grass, gurgling streams, and even the ancient ochre-red buildings are not covered with a single snowflake.

What is even more surprising is that there are no active people along the way, only puppets, goblins and alchemical creations of various shapes.

For example, the one responsible for opening the door and leading the way is a sixteen-legged metal spider that is nearly two meters tall.

There are also many snow-white balls patrolling in the sky. They are snowballs, a kind of monsters that are good at perception. They are born with the ability to master a cold current spell. They can also gather their tribes in a short period of time and transform into snow monsters to fight.

"Be careful! Don't mess with the City Lord's snowballs. They have bad tempers, but they're quite powerful. The snow monster they form is completely comparable to a second-level snow monster..."

Deshup introduced himself in a low voice, but before he could finish his words, a snowball flew towards him. If the old man had not turned his head quickly, it would have almost hit him on the forehead.

"Hey, you guys, forget it. I won't bother with you. Ah, Miss Anke, don't grab them with your hands. Snowballs hate being restrained. They might freeze your hands... Uh, okay, forget what I said."

Deshup looked at the girl in front of him who was showing him the snowball in her hand, and was about to say something.

An Ke gently squeezed the cold snowball in her palm. This little thing looked quite cute, just like the snowball in the Onmyoji game in her previous life, but without the little claws.

Frostbite is certainly out of the question.

Due to the shared talent [Friend of Nature·Frost], these snowballs naturally became close to her. In addition to the one rolling around in her hands, there were many others circling around her.

"...Maybe they like children and don't like us old guys."

The Turner family head smiled helplessly.

Until a short and beautiful music floated in the air, the snowballs finally floated away reluctantly.

Follow the metal spider all the way into the giant tower.

Finally, there are living people in the magnificent hall.

The old dean of the Asda City Magic Academy, the chubby head of the Winter Chamber of Commerce, Estherin kneeling on the ground with mithril chains wrapped around her, and Momo yawning and looking sleepy.

Besides.

Standing in the front is the Lord of Kunda City.

A handsome face, pointed ears, long blue hair, deep green eyes, a starry blue magic robe, and blue fish scales on his cheeks.

That's right, half-elf.
