The Truth of Magic

Chapter 464: The real culprit is ahead

At this moment, Freire, who was the most respected in the capital city Oulu, looked at Zhao Xu and the others carefully from beginning to end. He couldn't believe it, but he had to believe it.

In fact, even if the mysterious male mage in front of him claimed to be the nephew of a certain giant in Mystra, Freire and his group would not be so surprised.

Because the other party's age is too young.

Generally speaking, the person who can be appointed by the Mage Association to serve as the "chairman" in a local area is not necessarily the most powerful person in the local area.

But they must be the most trusted by the association, and they can also consolidate and coordinate the relationship between local mages for the association.

This requires that the "chairman" candidate must have sufficient reputation and strength, so most of the time they are selected from the well-connected mages who have been cultivating the local area for many years, otherwise all kinds of complicated situations will not be settled at all.

In addition, the president of the local branch of the association has enough "power" in itself, and also takes on the task of training and developing new apprentices and sending talents to Mystra.

Once entrusted to non-human beings, it is likely to cause a gap in the mage talent echelon in an entire region.

Therefore, after thousands of years, the Mage Association has already sorted out a set of effective talent selection procedures.

The other party said that the Falling Star Town mentioned was just a small town, but Freire knew that it was of great significance to serve as the president of a "Mage Association Branch" in a place that had not yet been established.

Occasionally, one or two young talents appear as presidents in other associations.

However, this kind of opening up new places does not choose experienced "old presidents", but chooses newcomers, which can be said to be unique for thousands of years.

This is already an exceptional promotion among exceptional promotions.

No matter whether it is the nephew of the association tycoon who wants to make such a special case, he can't suppress the pressure from the top management.

The Mage Association would rather waste the countless local spell material resources than be ambiguous in the selection of the president.

Therefore, Freire couldn't imagine how strong the talent of the man in front of him was, and how deep his connections were, so that the high-ranking Mystra Association headquarters could give him the green light all the way!

"Zhong Xia, isn't that the player who successfully entered the crater of the meteorite from the sky before, that is, the 'Palace of Eldraine'?"

At this time, a player sitting in the guard queue couldn't help but exclaim.

All of a sudden, everyone's eyes were fixed on Zhao Xu.

Artifact!

This magical term seemed to add endless charm to the mage in front of him wearing a starry cloak, making him look like he was glowing.

"No wonder, it's such a strong man?" At this time, the guards of the Auru City Guard who led the team to help couldn't help but let out this exclamation.

For them, the biggest event in the near future must be the mysterious explosion that happened in the Sunset Forest before the big snowstorm.

Especially the area involved in this big explosion, covering a radius of nearly 50 kilometers, and the central area where the explosion was the most serious, the leftover large crater with a radius of one or two kilometers, the power and scale can be called the most meteorite rain in the past.

Coupled with the thick smoke and fog that could not be blown away for many days and the threat of the anti-magic field, all of them made this explosion a "hot news" in the Northern Alliance, and even the ignorant women and children in the countryside heard about it.

Not to mention the many surrounding forces and organizations, after communicating with the Northern Alliance, they sent teams to visit the explosion area.

If it wasn't for the Ai Zhuo's palace that suddenly ascended to the sky mysteriously, otherwise, the captain of the guard would have to go to the explosion area to guard the explosion area for a few more days.

The Palace of Eldraine, which houses the high-level artifact "Holy Breath", seems to have left Arthur's continent and returned to the sky, but the aftermath it caused is still rippling.

But at this moment, when the halo of the artifact combined with Zhao Xu in front of him, everyone present suddenly felt that there was nothing wrong with the other party's "guild leader" name.

At the same time, the night that the "Zhong Xia" mage ascended to heaven in the Palace of Ai Zhuo, it became so reasonable to face the counterattacks of many "bandits" who tried to rob.

Only this kind of talented son can cooperate with this kind of feat.

The other players present were hesitant to speak, and wanted to ask questions to the "Zhong Xia" who was said to be the same player, but they dared not speak out due to discipline.

"Don't discuss this matter indiscriminately. The high-level members of the alliance, the Mage Association, and the major churches have all sent investigation teams to investigate. We can just keep silent until the final conclusion is reached." Freire immediately interrupted everyone's speculation and discussion. look.

Then he humbly invited Zhao Xu and others into his wider and more luxurious carriage.

Freire realized just now that his opportunity was coming!

And Zhao Xu, who planned to use the "Freyer" relationship, was not polite about it, and just got all four of the team into the carriage.

"I didn't expect to see you, Mage Zhongxia, here. Your feat in the Sunset Forest has spread throughout the Northern Alliance. At that time, the branch president was surprised when such a powerful mage appeared in the Northern Alliance." After Leier handed Zhao Xu a cup of rare hot tea, he said respectfully.

"Could it be that Mr. Frere you have friends who also participated in the incident that night?" Zhao Xu asked with a smile.

"It's definitely not." Frere waved his hand quickly.

He knew very well that the name "Zhong Xia" popped up out of nowhere at that time, and they were all confused.

Therefore, after the "Palace of Ai Zhuo" announcement meeting ascended to heaven, after the high-level alliance learned the thoughts of many underground organizations "with the intention of plundering" in that tight time, they did not know the "details" of this Zhong Xia. Under the circumstances, it was natural to push the boat along the way that night and silently evacuate the guards.

After all, as long as this "Zhong Xia" mage is a real mage, his battery life must be limited.

Once it is really impossible to connect, no matter how strong a mage is, he will fall down one day.

Therefore, in that short period of time, the first reaction of the league's top management was to wait and see what happened.

If the player Zhong Xia was robbed of the artifact because of his death, then the high-level leaders of the entire Northern Alliance, as a local snake force, would be the most confident in recovering the artifact.

It's just that no one expected that the Master Zhong Xia would come out and kill him brazenly, directly ending all unnecessary words.

"It's not exactly right. After all, no one knows who that black light is. I also threw the fireball casually at that time, and I just killed the encirclement indiscriminately."

Zhao Xu also explained a few words pretending to be domineering, while scanning the other party with his eyes. It seemed that from Freire's expression, he could see the intentions of the Tang De commander at that time.

It can be said that when Zhao Xu heard the announcement, he clearly analyzed the thoughts of the various hidden evil underground forces, and even the top management of the Northern Alliance.

That's why after he came out, he was able to kill him so resolutely.

Because he knew very well that once his magic firepower couldn't be suppressed at that time, and the opponent's magic power and offensive caught up, then he would only lose.

"However, may I take the liberty to ask, Mr. Zhong Xia, have you really obtained that artifact 'Holy Breath'?"

Freire was also considered an old fritter, and after a few simple exchanges, he immediately saw Zhao Xu's "attitude."

It's just that he has to feel that this topic is thrown out before the conversation is deep, and then no matter what the other party answers, he can advance and retreat or defend.

And the White Dragon Serus, who was transformed on the side, has been staring at him with wide eyes since Zhao Xu called himself "Zhong Xia" just now, with an unbelievable look on his face.

He, Cyrus, was born more than 300 years ago, and unexpectedly one day he happened to meet Arthur's powerful "relationship"?

Cerus, the white dragon who was still a little depressed because of being enslaved and saddened by being controlled by magic, suddenly felt energetic all over his body, including his "muscles".

This made Bailong couldn't help but do a few moves to show off his muscular muscles in front of everyone, like a fit man.

Because in his impression, those human strongmen seem to do this action to show their strength, so his great white dragon, the future Duke of the dragon clan, the ancient white dragon Cyrus, naturally had to show it well.

It might be possible to win a "place in the establishment" of the Mage Association with this "Mage Zhongxia".

As for the white eyes of everyone in the carriage, Cyrus naturally ignored it.

And Zhao Xu didn't bother to talk to the silly white dragon in a bodybuilding pose, as long as the other party didn't take off his pants and scare the girls, he would let him go.

He has seen a lot of this kind of oneness in his previous life.

As for the question of "Frell" in front of him, Zhao Xu, who is also an old fritter who is good at dealing with officials, said directly, "Could it be that Mr. Frere you want to make a deal with me?"

"The one behind your scenes is interested in the sacred breath?"

"Or, do you clearly know its value?"

It's just that Freire immediately smirked a few words, and said falsely: "Not really, Master Zhong Xia, you should also know my identity."

"The main reason is that my brother-in-law Tang De, who is the current leader of the alliance, recently lost his nephew because he was attacked by a mysterious figure, and even his soul was annihilated, so I want to see if the artifact can break through the possibility and find out the resurrection method, or provide some clues to the enemy."

"So Mr. Zhongxia, if you have this divine weapon, we are not seeking such a noble and god-given thing with you, but we simply hope that you can extend your hand to help."

"Don't worry, Commander Tang De's nephew is also a powerful family from his father's generation. It is a big family that has been passed down for a long time in our city of Auru. Both they and Commander Tang De offered a generous 'reward' to reward the murderer."

"Mr. Zhong Xia, if you can use the artifact to help, we will pay you a certain percentage of it no matter whether the matter is successful or not."

Hearing this, Zhao Xu couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

Including Vivian, who was on the side, silently lowered her head.

If Freire, brother-in-law Tang de, hadn't mentioned it, Zhao Xu would have almost forgotten about it.

Not long ago, when they searched the mutant scorpion's lair, they got Ernest's mysterious brass treasure chests, which were Antinoya's dowry.

At that time, Zhao Xu was intercepted by a group of cavalry outside the entrance of the cave, and it was obvious that the other party was also manipulating the mutant scorpions.

The result was that Zhao Xu and Vivian killed everyone.

As a result, Frere, who was in front of him, came to ask him, the "murderer", if he had an artifact, could he help him find the murderer?

The reward he really wanted.

But it is not easy to take.

Was he going back and planting a fortune on his nemesis, Graz'zt?

wrong.

Standing behind the leader of Tang De is the demon lord, can he accept this account?

Zhao Xu suddenly felt a headache.

In the past two days, the plot of the time travel has almost been sorted out. Tomorrow, the 3rd update will be repaid.
