Central Square, Moldavia -

St. Lauren's Cathedral is arguably the most majestic church in the Northland, and it is one of the oldest sanctuaries in the Northwest Territories in terms of history, it was founded together with the main city of Moldavia, and its first priests also settled in this cold wilderness with the Radcliffe family.

For example, the teleportation hall, which has just recently been built.

The side hall located on the left side of the prayer hall was filled with waves of time and space, and the church personnel who had already been notified hurriedly opened the magic circle that was connected, and then, the blue space-time door opened in the center of the side hall.

Joshua, who was the first to walk out, frowned.

He heard a terrible scream faintly coming from not far away, and the warrior stepped forward slightly, making way for the others, and then, with his eyes rolling to the right of the hall, his gaze seemed to pierce the wall.

"What, have you caught the cultist again?"

Motioning for Ying and Rin to go and check on the situation first, he asked in a flat tone to the young apprentice who was controlling the teleportation circle on the side, seemingly impatient: "They haven't learned their lesson yet?" have already sent so many people. ”

"Yes, my lord, on the night you left, Miss 3 caught a number of cultists, and Mr. Lolanda is now interrogating them with the Holy Light."

The apprentice who was controlling the circle was still the young black-haired priest apprentice, who looked a little tired, as if he had been harassed by the screams caused by the interrogation until he couldn't sleep at night, and he cheered up and replied seriously to Joshua's inquiry: "Due to the large number of people, I have been interrogating since last night, and now it should be the seventh person, right?" ”

"Trouble."

Shaking his head, the warrior looked dissatisfied with this method of disposal: "Their purpose has long been revealed, it is better to execute them early, so as not to waste energy." Between the words, I didn't treat the cultists as human beings at all.

"At first, that's what Atanis and they thought the same way."

Just after Joshua finished speaking, Ying and Rin also walked out of the side hall and went to the place where the screams were made, a somewhat soft girl's voice came from the door, this voice was a little illusory at first, with a hint of echo, but then it became clear: "But then I found out that this group of people is not the same group of people as the previous ones, and the paladin is also worried that their purpose is not the same, so he decided to interrogate all night to see if there is any new information." ”

As the sound gradually became clearer, the faint light of magic flickered, refracting holographic projections in the air, and with the continuous construction of tiny runes, the figure of a blue-haired girl suspended in mid-air appeared at the door of the side hall.

About 1.5 meters, dressed in a black dress, the skirt is decorated with some feathers, this girl's face is beautiful, as delicate as a doll, her ears are slightly upturned, and there is a pair of wings on her back, which can be seen that she is not human.

"No. 3, anyway, thank you for your hard work."

Turning his head sideways, Joshua raised his hand and greeted the depressed girl, he asked dryly, "So what is the difference between this group of people and the previous cultists?" ”

"Hmmm......"

Tilting her head, Number 3 looked a little distressed, she put a finger on her lips and thought about the adjective: "Weaker?" It's even more unorganized, it's a complete rabble, and the purpose is messy, and it's basically lying. ”

After speaking, she shook her head slightly, snorted cutely, and then said a little boringly: "I thought it could be more interesting." ”

Just as the AI girl and Joshua were talking about the cultists who appeared last night, the follow-up mages also came to the side hall through the space-time passage one after another.

They seemed to be very familiar with the matter of teleportation, and none of them were dizzy from the slight spatial dislocation caused by teleportation, and after all fifteen people had passed through the passage, the dark blue space-time door slowly closed.

Before these mages could realize that they had come to the edge of the Northland, the most 'rural place' of the former empire, they saw No. 3 floating in mid-air in front of Joshua.

"Shhhh

The first person to see the artificial intelligence girl was a middle-aged mage with graying sideburns, who looked very gentle, and he didn't have the slightest emotional fluctuation about the fact that he was going to face the chaos plague next, and he had already made all the psychological preparations, but even so, after seeing the figure of No. 3, he couldn't help but gasp.

"It's ...... What is it?! ”

At a glance, it was clear that the other party was not a real creature, but some kind of magic gathering, but it was precisely because of this that the middle-aged mage was so shocked: "Such a fine magic control technique, a perfect rune structure, it is exactly like a real person-no, it is more beautiful than a real person!" ”

"O truth!"

Following his fiery gaze, the other mages also noticed No. 3's posture, and they all set their eyes on the AI girl's body, and then exclaimed in unison: "It's art!" ”

As mages, they quickly analyzed the runic structure on No. 3's body that was beyond the current magic level of the Microf Continent.

"How is it possible, even those guys from the Eastern Plains can't make this level of magical life!"

"Twenty years, no, at least thirty years beyond our technical level, this level of micro-rune construction is a continent-level problem, many magic energy mechanical cores are trapped here and cannot be miniaturized, who has solved this problem and actually applied it?!"

“…… Incredible. ”

couldn't help but widen his eyes, Moore, who had been in a daze all the time, his eyes also changed from the previous sloppy to condensed, this compared with Nostradamus, there is less of a mage's elegant style, but there is a trace of a soldier's unique perseverance The old mage looked at the figure of No. 3, and said in a deep voice: "It's not so much a magic aggregate, it's an elemental creature...... A life constructed entirely of pure magic and runes, and a perfect soul, O Truth—"

At this moment, he seemed to be a little short of words, but then, Moore nodded vigorously, and said in a tone of certainty and excitement: "It's perfect!" ”

Noticing the commotion of the mages, Joshua, who was communicating with No. 3, couldn't help but suffocate slightly, but he forgot that for this group of mages who were obsessed with knowledge and technology, the very existence of No. 3 would make them extremely excited.

It was a life formed by the convergence of the most elite magical energy technology in the world of Karlis, and its own existence was a miracle.

And the AI girl loves the compliments these mages give her, especially the ones that are 'the same as the real thing!' ''No, it's more beautiful than the real thing!'' ''What nonsense you guys are talking about, that's true!'' When No. 3 heard this, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl slightly, but she also understood that if she continued to stay here, the situation might not be able to be controlled, and those mages who were still shocked might not be able to help but directly 'move' to analyze her later.

So after roughly explaining the information about the cultists to the warriors, the AI girl simply disappeared in place, leaving only a broken magic point of light.

"All I can say is, no comment."

Before the mages could react, Joshua was the first to turn his head, glancing at the spellcasters behind him, and he said in a serious tone, "This is a secret about the Radcliffe family. ”

- Even if you ask me, I don't know about those techniques. Thinking of this in his heart, with his terrifying charm, the warrior successfully suppressed the scene, except for the old mage Moore's face did not change, as if he was still thinking, the other mages felt a cold wind urging by, a bad chill rose behind them, and the excitement of seeing the unprecedented exquisite rune technology also cooled down.

As spellcasters, they were naturally smart people, and after calming down for a while, these mages who had been a little carried away all recalled their original mission, and they all recalled what Nostradamus had told them before leaving the imperial capital.

'There is much more in Moldavia than you can imagine. ’

The old mage said in a deep voice, "But don't get too excited and forget your original mission. ’

Originally, they thought it was just an ordinary admonition, but now that they looked back, the mages immediately understood that Nostradamus was just stating the facts, and they had better follow suit.

This is not the imperial capital, but the northern land far away, the powerful black-haired warrior in front of him is the lord of this place, in a sense, he is the lord of this place, since he said not to ask, then shut up quickly.

After seeing these people in front of him quickly quieted down, Joshua nodded slightly in satisfaction, it seemed that the negative charm occasionally had a positive effect, and then, he turned around, looked at the black-haired young priest, and asked directly, "What's your name?" ”

"My name is Draenor, my lord."

The black-haired priest was slightly stunned, as if he didn't expect the warrior to ask this question, but he quickly replied, "What do you command?" ”

"Then Draenor, you first take this group of mages to the resting place and prepare breakfast."

Giving a decisive order, the warrior turned his head and said to Moore with a serious expression: "And Mr. Moore, you can go with me to see the cultists, and if necessary, we can also go to the dungeon to see the so-called plague." ”

"Okay."

The old mage agreed in a deep voice, as the leader, he was more calm than the others: "This is our purpose. ”

After speaking, the two of them left the side hall neatly, and the other fourteen mages followed the black-haired priest who screamed for Draenor to the waiting room of the church next to him.

Moore and Joshua had not been away for long, and after about an hour, the old mage walked back with a serious face.

At this time, the mages who had finished their breakfast were divided into several groups, and they were discussing the difficulties of miniaturization of rune construction, high-density magical life, and artificial souls, and some of them suspected that No. 3 was not actually some kind of magical aggregate, but a projection of some more superb artificial life, because the other party's body was so easily condensed and dispersed, and there was no sign of gathering around some kind of core.

Unfortunately, no one can confirm this conjecture, and they don't have the opportunity to verify it.

"All right, guys."

Looking at the scene in front of him, Moore's face was solemn, and he said in a deep voice, asking everyone present to be quiet: "We're going to get down to business now. ”

The entire living room was silent in an instant, which was enough to show the majesty of the old mage in the third research group, but even so, Moore did not show any happy look, he sighed slightly, and then took out a small bottle containing something black from his robe, and said solemnly: "This time our mission is extraordinary. ”
