Chapter 242: Execution Ground
As agreed.
Claudia led the way, and Ronald followed behind.
It was in this dark Mufan Street that they walked through the streets and alleys, left and right, and without leaving the slum, about a quarter of an hour later, the two came to a high wall.
During this period, although there were still people who set malicious eyes on them.
But it is probably the local convention culture, because with those gangsters who attacked Ronald and the others before, even if the others had some excitement in their eyes, no one took direct action.
But after seeing the direction in which the two were heading.
Knowing that there was a wall blocking the way, they showed a sneering expression quite tacitly.
And the other side.
Stand in front of this wall.
Ronald looked at Claudia beside him, and the girl looked at him at the same time.
“……”
In this way, the two looked at each other in silence for a few seconds.
The battle of eyes went on in silence and ended with Ronald's defeat.
After bending down honestly and feeling Claudia's body sticking to it, Ronald once again recreated his performance at Wildlin University.
It's still a fairly easy process.
Led Claudia over the wall, and in this place that was completely separated from Mufan Street, everything in front of him suddenly became clear.
It was a fairly spacious square, and the air was filled with the cold winds of winter nights.
Not far in front of Ronald and the others, a high wooden platform lined up in the middle of the square, two straight and parallel logs stuck vertically on the platform, and the bright blades hung from the beams at the top of the wood.
- The standard guillotine.
Looking at the thing in front of him, Ronald subconsciously touched his neck after putting down Claudia.
Presumably to facilitate executions, these guillotines also have a device at the top that can replace the noose, and can be used as a gallows with a little operation.
Springs City ......
How can there be such a place of mass execution?
Looking at the execution ground he was in, Ronald whispered to Claudia, who had just gotten off the ground behind him:
"Isha, here's a ...... Execution ground? ”
"That's right." Hearing Ronald's inquiry, the girl simply nodded in acknowledgement, and then pointed around and introduced, "This is a special place for batch disposal of death row prisoners." ”
"Basically, only during the month of repentance every year, which is now called February, this place will be responsible for processing last year's death row prisoners in large quantities, and outside of this time, as an ominous place, this place is basically completely closed."
"If we're here, even if we do something out of the ordinary, no one will bother us."
Ronald nodded thoughtfully:
"Is that so......"
This kind of place for the mass dead is not a good place in most civilizations.
It's a matter of course that no one comes.
And according to Claudia, it's open for a limited time in February every year, and now it's in January, so you really don't have to worry about anyone coming to disturb you.
In every sense, Claudia really picked a pretty good place.
While Ronald was still surveying the open space, Claudia walked up to him at the same time and whispered the incantation she was accustomed to:
"Three volumes, two hundred and eighty-four pages, the second heading."
"Ronald, you stand still first, I'll take a good look."
With a wave of her right hand to pull out the shadow of the original canon from the air, Claudia immediately channeled her magic power on Ronald and began to study this detection spell, and emotions such as "this magic power is interesting", "it's quite powerful", "hehe" and so on came out one after another.
It lasted like this for three or four minutes, and after a variety of methods such as spell hedging, magic washing, and curse covering, Claudia raised her hand from Ronald with a smile on her face:
"It's perfectly fine to get rid of this tracking mark."
"I can even rip it off on its own and do some little tricks on it."
"But Ronald, it's not easy for you to provoke someone."
"Even if it's a tracking spell left by an elite-level investigator, I'm sure I'll get rid of it soon, but you're ......"
Speaking of this, Claudia showed a somewhat emotional smile:
"The person you provoked must be a guy with the original scriptures, right?"
Faced with Claudia's slightly teasing inquiry, Ronald nodded helplessly:
"I'm not sure if the other party uses the original text."
"But considering what happened to me before, it's still not a big possibility."
In the face of such an answer, Claudia did not complain or complain or anything, but spread her hands happily:
"Haha, that's not bad."
"It's hard to have a social experience of fighting an enemy who really owns the original text."
The voice landed, and Claudia's movements were also direct.
As she said, the girl manipulated her magic to delicately strip a spell from Ronald's body.
The almost transparent white air mass solidified into a small dot and was firmly held in Claudia's hand.
Obvious.
This is the magic of the reconnaissance spell in Ronald's body.
At the same time, looking at the appearance of Claudia in front of him seriously operating.
Ronald had a wry smile on his face.
He couldn't help but think back to the time he faced Malcolm on the train.
With just one person, that guy paid the price of one eye and wiped out an elite army of the Church. With this level of canon control, it is definitely not as easy as Claudia says.
Wait a minute......
Thinking of Malcolm, an idea popped into Ronald's head.
When trying to solve this scouting spell, Claudia in front of her showed a rather exaggerated knowledge reserve.
In this case......
Could he have asked this companion to do him a small favor?
Thinking of this, Ronald simply took out the core of the magic circle that he took out at Elva's house this afternoon, and then said:
"Claudia, see if it's possible to make this thing into spell gear or something. If I could, it might be a lot easier for me in the next battle. ”
Seeing Ronald's movements, Claudia immediately became interested.
With one hand controlling the magic power, she pinched the condensed air mass of the detection spell in her hand, and at the same time took the strange stone from Ronald's hand.
After looking at the object in her hand and thinking about it for a few seconds, and then infusing her own magic power, Claudia had a very confident smile on her face.
His eyes looked at Ronald with interest.
She then spoke in a rather generous tone:
"This thing......"
"Easy to do!"
