Annan blinked.

Bite one's tongue.

Twelve obvious injuries all over his body, and the back of his head was shattered by a heavy sword - in this case, it can still be judged as suicide by magic?

How did he manage to smash the back of his head with a heavy sword? Throw it into the sky and then jump up and pick it up?

That's too accurate.

This is second only to being shot hand and foot tied and shot in the back of the head.

- Could it be that he committed suicide using the Rube Goldberg device?

"The spell should be out of order."

Longjingcha pointed to the newspaper and explained: "Look...... Because this result was so bizarre, no one believed it at the time. So a lot of wizards and ritualists came to verify it. Among them even included the teacher of 'The Shield of Immortality' Justs, "The Grey Professor" Setty. ”

…… Wait a minute.

"'Professor Grey' Seti?"

Annan raised his eyebrows and muttered in a low voice with some confusion.

Isn't Seti the title "The Healer"?

Or did this happen before Master Seti became a bone healer?

It's not just not an illusion.

Or maybe it's overthinking......

Hearing the word "Professor Gray", Annan immediately thought of "Professor Wolf".

Speaking of which.

Professor Wolf was removed from his family and renamed "Professor Wolf" shortly after that, right?

He's ...... Want to rub off on the popularity of "Professor Grey" Setty?

Such a thought immediately crossed Annan's mind.

He cautiousd a little.

"Wait a minute, let me see."

"Hmm."

Longjing Tea answered and handed the newspaper to Annan. Annan spread the old newspaper on the table and carefully checked the old records.

Dove, who was on the side, also put the cat's head on Annan's arm and read the newspaper intently together.

Chocolate also put his head on Annan's shoulder, pretending to stare at the newspaper with his eyes blank, and his pupils didn't even move from side to side.

“…… Hey? ”

After flipping up and down twice, Annan was a little surprised.

In the newspapers, there was no mention of the person "Frederick Melvin" from beginning to end.

As mentioned above, Justes was given a rather mysterious mission. A big man named him to enter the Ember Barren in search of a spell.

This task is actually quite strange.

Because the coal was barren at the time, and there were no people yet—it had just been destroyed by magma, and it should have been a barren place.

In other words, there should be no danger in finding something here. Of course, it could be buried by lava...... So the most difficult part should be to dig it out.

- Then you shouldn't be looking for the [Unfalling Shield] at all.

As a very young gold-level transcendent, the "Immortal Shield" is also the most proud disciple of the "Gray Professor". He's a strong bodyguard and security guard, and he's incredibly tough - he's even physically able to resist the fireman's lava attacks, and he's a strong swimmer in lava.

It's usually an underground monster attack, or to protect some big person.

With his own body alone, he can protect innocent people from serious damage.

“…… Link-on messengers? ”

Annan muttered.

The good thing is that the transcendents of the underworld live on the bright side. This newspaper can write so clearly.

- [Shield of Immortality] Justus is the gold that has advanced from the silver-level class "Lian Energy Messenger".

As early as "Nightmare: The Gallery", Annan had seen this profession.

"Uni-Energy Messengers" can transfer energy to each other within the visual range. Extract the life force of a certain person and use it to heal another person; Or take the mana pools of most wizards and concentrate them on a single wizard.

This is a serious tool man profession.

No matter what country or any force, such transcendent beings are very welcome. As generals, they can truly "twist the power of everyone into a rope".

The reverse is true...... Because this profession is too practical and too tooly.

If you want to use this class to advance to gold, it is even more difficult.

If you live a comfortable and happy life, it is difficult to break everything you have and rise to a higher level of stability and pure "upward desire".

But the "shield that does not fall" did it.

At the golden level, he is like a patron saint walking in the world.

He is able to transfer the trauma that others have already suffered to himself; Or transfer the attacks that are about to fall on your teammates to yourself in advance.

Then draw on the power of the enemy or nature to heal yourself quickly.

Whether it's the heart being pierced, the limbs being broken, the skin being completely peeled off, the spine being withdrawn...... As long as there is still a breath of injury, Justes will not die.

He was like a shield in the shape of a human.

As long as he exists there, standing on the earth.

Even if the people around them were drowned in barrage, covered in a rain of flames, and choked out of their throats by assassins piercing their hearts, slicing their throats and smashing their brains, they would not be harmed in any way.

To put it simply, as long as it's someone Justes wants to protect...... Unless the target is taken directly out of Justus' field of vision, the Transcendents below the Golden Tier cannot kill them.

- Justes is the guardian who can give people such a strong sense of security.

Whether it's protecting the militia against monsters, fighting natural disasters and rescue, or escorting others into dangerous areas......

As long as he stands with Justes, his teammates are equivalent to opening the "lock blood" hanging.

“…… Hey? ”

Annan frowned slightly.

- That's not right.

If Justes' vitality is so tenacious......

How could he possibly be taken down by a simple backstab? How could he have such obvious injuries on his body?

"It seems that there are a lot of suspicions."

Dove said softly.

Her cat's head moved slightly on Annan's arm, and she raised her head to look at Annan: "Your Highness, are you here to purify this nightmare?" ”

"Hmm."

Annan nodded, still thinking.

If the task is to find something...... Then it is indeed possible to go with Frederick. Idol wizards come to find something, and while they may not be as quick and immediate as prophetic wizards, they are much easier to determine.

As long as he "can find this thing later," the prophetic wizard can get the result immediately; But by the same token, if he couldn't possibly find it...... That is, when the probability of accomplishing this is low to a certain level, the prophetic shaman's divination is invalid.

But idol wizards are different.

They have the means to turn the effect into the cause. Even if this thing is hidden hundreds of meters underground, as long as the ability is strong enough, it can be directly "searched".

In this sense, Frederick may have been approached by Justes after he took on the task.

…… Well, the probability of pre-set traps for murder doesn't seem to be so high.

You know, Frederick hadn't reached the Golden Rank at that time.

He only advanced to gold after being removed from the family.

At this time, he was just a silver-level idol wizard...... Justus, on the other hand, is a gold-level meat shield class.

Maybe Frederick is going all out to stand on the pile and output, and he doesn't play as much as Justes returns.

That's a murder hammer.

"But Justes was really murdered, that's true. And it's a perfect murder, and no one has found out what Frederick has done for so many years...... He even traded power from the tragic writer through this ritual. ”

Ryujingcha concluded: "It seems that there is no way to gather intelligence outside of nightmares.

"Is there any clue to this nightmare? For example, where can I get the keys...... I think I might have to go into the nightmare to gather more information. ”

"Unfortunately, no."

Annan shook his head helplessly: "Naifi and I came here just to find the 'key'.

"Since the truth has not been made public for so many years...... Even Justes' death at the hands of Professor Wolf is a secret. Then I guess the key here must not have been discovered.

In other words...... If Professor Wolf hadn't purified this nightmare, we'd most likely have to purify a new nightmare that no one had ever purified. ”

In other words, you have to start with the step of finding the "key".

"—the first step, you can already skip it."

A deep voice rang out in the room.

Annan felt that the Dove in his arms exploded instantly, and the delicious wind goose suddenly opened his eyes, and cast a sharp and bright gaze, Longjing Tea frowned slightly, and took a deep breath and was ready to use the edict spell at any time.

But it was only then that they suddenly reacted.

The voice...... Sounds familiar?

"Stop."

Annan stopped their work.

Surprised, he looked at the floor-to-ceiling mirror in the room.

Or, rather, look at the person who has stepped out of the floor-to-ceiling mirror.

Benjamin...... Your Highness? ”
