Chapter 25: Thank you
Get you back...... ?
Annan narrowed his eyes slightly, and his heart was as clear as a mirror.
He knows very well that since he came into this world, he has basically not offended anyone.
If this is revenge, it can only come from one person.
Viscount Alvin Barber from Roseburg.
Although it is not known what exactly his purpose is...... But from the very beginning, he had a very obvious hostility towards Frozen Water Harbor.
When he first sent those men to raid disguised as robbers, Don Juan Geraine had no intention of going here.
In other words, the old viscount's hostility was not directed against Don Juan himself.
And Roseburg also theoretically belongs to the North Sea Territory. It was also the fief of Count Geraint...... He himself was a vassal of Don Juan's father.
Let's not mention what he really wants to do.
“…… As a vassal, he dared to burn his lord's ships—"
Annan let out a cold and majestic rebuke, his face was like frost: "I'm curious, where did he get the courage to do this?" Who gave him the confidence? ”
This kind of thing, Annan must be-
…… Very pleasant to see.
If the old gentleman didn't send a few people to burn the ship, it would be equivalent to destroying all the previous evidence. How many things were left of the entire ship, how many people had been there, and the traces of the battle on it were all gone.
The entire ship was burned clean.
This means that they have no evidence that Annan is not Don Juan Geraine.
Of course, Annan had to look very angry. Because he needs to show an attitude...... It's just an attitude.
With his identity, no one will ask him to go directly.
The only place that could be exposed was Don Juan's body. The body must still be in the vicinity of the ship...... In three or four days, maybe the body will still be recognized.
As for John's body, it was deliberately left on board by Annan to mislead others — or rather, to provide clues to others.
After all, he died from the ritual "Tongue in the Mirror" triggered by the Chief of the Guard. Annan believed that the traces of such ritual crimes should at least be able to be detected by the church...... Otherwise, it will inevitably be very closely regulated.
"Did anyone die around there?"
So Annan pondered for a moment and asked Salvatore: "Or, is there a body on board?" ”
"I don't know, I don't know, I can't see clearly."
Salvatore shook his head, poured himself a glass of water, and drank it down.
Then he breathed a sigh of relief and explained, "Because it's not just the ship that has been burned. There was even a fire burning on the water around it......"
"On the water?"
"Well, that's a special kind of fuel. Liquid fuel oil converted from gases stored in the swamp by the transformation wizards of our Zedi Black Tower. It has a stable model that can be supplied to civilian use, we call it Green Fire; But what is sold is more of a kind of oil drum used in defending the city...... It is a bit more attached and is known as black fire. ”
Salvatore sat across from Annan, glanced down at what book he was reading, drank another glass of water before gritting his teeth and saying, "I did some sampling...... The heat kills me. That idiot will pay! I'll find out which damn idiot sold this thing to them when I analyze it. ”
“…… You look very angry, senior. ”
Annan looked at Salvatore, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and a pleasant smile appeared.
He raised his eyebrows, returned to his flat expression again, and made a cold voice: "Is it burned?" ”
"I'm not weak enough to get burned by something like this."
Salvatore said angrily, "Don Juan, your father probably didn't tell you about these things...... Black fire is a strategic material, and it is not allowed to be sold in non-wartime, let alone smuggled. After all, the lethality of this thing is too great, it can only be sold to the wartime border marquis, and after the war, the unused parts will be recycled, because ordinary people do not have the environment to store this kind of thing.
"At room temperature, a black flame will explode as soon as it encounters a violent impact, or if it encounters an open flame after a leak. Once the black flame is detonated, a fierce fire that is extremely difficult to extinguish will be ignited within a dozen meters around...... As long as you stick a little bit, you will burn people alive. The other strategic materials that were put together with it would naturally be burned out.
"So, it doesn't matter who was on your ship before and what was on it...... Now there's nothing left. It wasn't until just now that I put out all the black fires. ”
The young mayor was very sleepy, and the dark circles under his eyes became more and more obvious.
He hammered the table very irritably: "Hell, it's really uncounting! Did the brains of that group of people flow out of **? There is a forest not far from the next door, are they trying to start a forest fire?! ”
“…… Such a fierce fire. ”
Annan frowned slightly, and then soothed: "It's good that I didn't keep anyone on the ship." My guards have all been sent out by me. ”
Thank you, old man.
He thanked him from the bottom of his heart.
The reason for mentioning the non-existent guards is that Annan intends to give the players a legal identity - but because he is not sure how the players will come, Annan does not dare to tell Salvatore directly about his death now.
We'll find out in a few hours anyway...... Don't be in a hurry.
“…… If you've had dinner, why don't you go to bed first? ”
Annan looked at Salvatore's eyes, which were already scarlet bloodshot, and couldn't help but persuade: "I feel that you are about to fall unconscious." ”
"I can't go to bed so early yet, in case the coma passes, it'll be over."
Salvatore sighed: "Don't look at me like that...... It's not that I want to stay up late, it's my curse, and I don't want to. Don't ask for specifics. ”
"Okay."
Annan shrugged and said no more.
"I've been annoyed lately......"
Salvatore scratched at his unusually soft hair, leaned on the table and cried out weakly, "I'm so sleepy......
"Hey, Don Juan. Have you chosen your spells, I might be about to go. ”
"I've chosen."
Annan replied calmly: "But I don't need you anymore - I've already learned." I'm just waiting for you to help me advance. ”
His current wizarding apprenticeship has become like this:
Wizard Apprentice LV10 (Advanced): [Instant Spell LV2 (Cold Contact, Lazy Eye)], [Channeling Spell LV2 (Wall of Stillness, Frost Nova)]
His experience was just enough to raise the profession of wizard apprentice to level ten. Before you advance, this is the highest level of a wizard apprentice.
The spell slot on his body can hold a total of four spells. Two instant spells, two channeling spells.
To put it simply, it is the difference between opening and closing, and having to guide the release -
[Eye of Laziness (Instant): Curse your own eyes to infect the minds of others through their gaze. All those who look at you will immediately become lazy and weak. The effect rises when used on tired people. Every 2s (depending on the total wizard class level/5), consumes 1 of Order's Power.
[Wall of Stall (Channel): Passivates the air in the designated area, causing any object passing through the area to immediately lose its original velocity. The effect of using it on inanimate objects is greatly increased. The larger the area, the greater the power of order consumption, but the minimum cost of order power per second is 1]
[Frost Nova (Channeling): Causes the temperature of the designated medium (air/water/earth) around 30 meters to drop rapidly, and can instantly conduct a curse equivalent to the instant spell "Cold Contact". Curse effect increases at the edges. Every two waves of Nova (depending on the total wizard class level/5), consumes 8 of the power of order, which can be released continuously]
Because Annan didn't know if he could wash some. So he chose the spells that had the widest range of applications in the school of incapacitation and could complement each other.
His fighting ability has finally taken shape at this moment-
