Chapter 315: Behind the Scenes? Capalette?
Nebula felt a pity for letting the black-robed man run away, and Carson, who was in the office, shouted as a fluke after hearing Nebula and Romeo's description.
After hearing that the black-robed man had the ability to turn into shadows, Carson guessed that the black-robed man was most likely a shadow assassin made of dark magic.
Although the lethality of the Shadow Assassin is not very high, as long as it sneaks into the shadows of other objects, it will not suffer any damage at all, not to mention that the Shadow Assassin is extremely concealed after turning into a shadow, and ordinary adventurers will not be able to detect its existence at all.
If it weren't for the fact that Nebula's spiritual power was too large, Nebula probably wouldn't have been able to detect the anomaly of the shadow.
The next moment he knew that the Shadow Assassin was made by dark magic, Nebula subconsciously thought of Sheila.
Sheila is defeated and disappears, and it is not impossible for her to hide in Magatia, who has a mysterious aura everywhere.
Realizing the seriousness of the matter, Nebula immediately informed Shinas of the incident with the communicator on his wrist, hoping that Shinas and Ikart would be vigilant.
Ikaert said that he would be on guard so that Nebula didn't have to worry too much, after all, Sheila had been injured in the previous battle, and it was impossible to make any major moves.
In the dormitory, Nebula spoke to himself to the communicator, and Romeo, who heard part of the situation, shook his head and denied Nebula: "I don't think it's Sheila in your mouth that shot this time!" If it's really her, then she's too stupid to do suspicious things when she has lost most of her strength, isn't this death? β
"And that shadow assassin's target has always been me, if it weren't for Nebula and you to hinder his attack, maybe he wouldn't have attacked you at all." Romeo stroked his chin and gave his reason.
Nebula nodded and said to Romeo, "I also saw that the target of his attack was your heart, throat, and skull, these vital parts, I really don't know how you made a feud with the dark forces?" β
"Hey! Don't frame me, okay? I don't know any magicians who can use dark magic, and I don't know why the target would be me. Romeo slapped the table and retorted to Nebula.
After hearing Romeo's rebuttal, Nebula didn't continue to say anything, but held his chin thoughtfully and thought for a long time.
"Romeo, do you have any enemies? Or does President Carson have any enemies? Nebula asked Romeo earnestly.
After thinking for a while, Romeo shook his head at Nebula and said, "No, I usually just stay in the association, I don't have much time to cause trouble, and I almost never go out except for dating Juliet. As for Mr. Carson, what do you ask Mr. Carson to do? This shouldn't have anything to do with the teacher!? β
"Can your head not be so rigid, who wants you to die but your enemies? That's your teacher's enemy, why don't you think about it, who will be the saddest if you die? Nebula asked Romeo with a shake of his hand.
When Romeo heard Nebula's question, he immediately blurted out: "Naturally, it's Juliet, if I die, she won't survive." If she dies, I won't survive. β
Nebula covered his face helplessly and continued to ask Romeo, "Okay! Who else but Juliet, who can live and die with you, who will be sad for you? β
"Are you saying that the mastermind behind the Shadow Assassin really wants to be against Mr. Carson?" Romeo asked Nebula suspiciously.
Nebula nodded affirmatively and explained to Romeo, "There are many, many terrifying things in dark magic besides shadow assassins.
For example, forcibly extracting the memories of dead people's souls, such as making dead people into puppets
Either way, if it's successful, it can have a big impact on Carson.
With Romeo's memory, then the entire Montegu Alchemy Society can almost let them come and go freely, and even infiltrate Montegue's key facilities to cause devastating damage, thus inflicting a huge blow on Montegue.
If Carson hadn't discovered Romeo's puppet's identity, more than ten years later, Romeo, who had been made into a puppet, could even take over the management of the Montegu Alchemy Society directly from Carson's hands and become the new president of the Monteo Alchemy Society.
Doesn't this mean that the Montegui Alchemy Society has been completely mastered by the people behind the scenes?
Romeo shuddered at the thought of this, he forcibly suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and explained to Nebula: "Teacher Carson doesn't have many enemies, except for the group of guys from the Capalet Alchemy Society, I really don't know who else would dare to attack Teacher Carson. β
As he spoke, Romeo began to grit his teeth and scold, and Romeo, who seemed to be Sven, scolded the Capalet Alchemy Society from beginning to end with vulgar words. (Except, of course, his dear Juliet.) οΌ
It seems that Romeo was really frightened by this incident, otherwise he wouldn't have scolded so fiercely, and the more he scolded, the more frightened he became.
However, even though they know that it is most likely Capalet's ghost, Nebula and Romeo have no evidence that Capalette was responsible for attacking Romeo.
So Romeo and Nebula discussed until late at night, and they didn't come up with any useful strategies at all, so they had no choice but to bury their heads in the bed and go to sleep
β ?????????????????? β
The next day, at noon, in Romeo's bedroomβ
"Oops! Oops! Something big is wrong with Nebula!! Romeo shook the bedridden Nebula and shouted at the Nebula.
Nebula was taken aback by Romeo's anxious appearance, thinking that something really had happened, something similar to Sheila's control of the skeleton to attack Ariante.
After Nebula inquired about Romeo in detail, he realized that what Romeo said was actually a big thing
"Juliet didn't come to the cake shop this morning!! Something must have happened to her! Otherwise, she would never have missed the appointment! We have made an appointment to see each other or leave!! Romeo said nervously to Nebula.
Nebula yawned and comforted Romeo, "Maybe it's just that Sister Juliet was grounded by McMade, or maybe the matter between you and her was known to McMade, so she can't come." β
"Wouldn't that be more troublesome? If the matter between me and Juliet is known to McMaid, McMaid will definitely not give Juliet a good look, and maybe he will do something excessive to Juliet. Nebula, you must help me!! Romeo pleaded to Nebula's folded hands.
Nebula looked at Romeo very suspiciously, and asked Romeo, "You mean to let me go to Capalet to help you find out about Juliet??" I'm very busy, I'm going to the semi-finals in two days, and I have a lot to prepare. β
"What alchemy materials do you need, just tell me, and I'll help you get it. I'm really eager to hear from Juliet, she's okay, if something really happens to her, I'll be devastated!! Please, please help me, Nebula!! Romeo pleaded again to Nebula, crying.
Looking at Romeo's bloodshot eyes, Nebula could no longer say no words, so he nodded and agreed to Romeo's commission.
"Since you're so worried about her, let's go together! I've got six flasks of invisibility here, which should be enough for us to walk around Capalet, and maybe find evidence that Capalet used the Shadow Assassin to assassinate you. Nebula patted Romeo on the back as if he were reassuring, and said to Romeo.
Romeo stopped talking for a long time, and finally scratched his head and said to Nebula: "Capalette Alchemy Society is full of anti-hidden magic arrays, and it is said that the two major alchemy societies of Montegu and Capalette have hired many flying heroes to infiltrate each other's territory and wreak havoc during the war. At the beginning, facing the stealth state of Feixia, the two alchemy associations were still distressed for a while, until the two alchemy associations drew anti-stealth inscriptions inside and out, and the stealth skills of Feixia were useless at all. β
After hearing what Romeo said, Nebula said with great difficulty: "Then how do I infiltrate the Capalette Alchemy Society?" Without the help of the invisibility potion, with my current strength, I'm afraid I won't even be able to break through the gate. Or if we tell President Carson about it, he should have a better solution. β
"Nope! No way! If Mr. Carson had known, I would have died an ugly death! Why don't you pretend to be an alchemist who wants to join the Capalette Alchemy Society and give it a try? Romeo not only rejected Nebula's offer, but instead came up with this method that was not at all substantial.
Nebula said to Romeo helplessly, "I'm almost known in Magatia, right?" Yesterday's preliminary round, the old man McMade's old man looked at me with a few regrets, maybe he was already planning something against me, if I sneaked into Capalet and was discovered by McMade, wouldn't it be a sheep's mouth? β
"Then you can dress up a little, right! We can cross-disguise and infiltrate Capalette!! Our purpose is just to find out about Juliet, which shouldn't be too difficult. As long as we get news of Juliet, we can withdraw it at any time! Romeo said excitedly, as if he had figured something out.
Nebula carefully considered what Romeo said and found that it was indeed feasible, anyway, it was just to find out the identity of Juliet's sister, and it was enough to hide it for a while!!
However, there must be a disguised identity in addition to this, otherwise unidentified strangers can easily arouse Capalette's suspicions.
Well~~~~ It's been a long time since I've said hello to Senior Brother Ante, and I hope he can help make up a suitable identity that will allow him and Romeo to infiltrate the Cappalet Alchemy Society.
He and Romeo also have to take advantage of this time to think about the two of them's cross-dressing, what to do so as not to make Capalette's group of guys suspicious
(Capalette was innocently shot, but this is also a matter of course, and it is generally suspected that there is a hostile relationship first.) οΌ
