Arcane Lord

　　 He turned around and stared at Aiva in shock, "This is—an undead?!"

After 　　, before Iwa could answer, he carefully observed the black robe "person".

Just from the opening of the black robe "person"'s clothes, Xia Duo saw the dense white bones, and he didn't even need to enter the spell-casting focus state. Checking whether the black robe "person" had negative energy remaining on his body, he almost believed that this was an undead creature. .

　　 Just now Aiva said that the situation is a bit special, what could be more special than an undead creature? Coupled with the words he said before entering the door, Xia Duo was even more convinced that this was an undead creature.

　　Of course, it is indispensable to be formally confirmed. Xia Duo immediately entered the state of concentration. The skeleton covered in black robes in front of him was slowly but constantly dissipating strands of negative energy.

　　 was getting closer, and Xia Duo realized that the worn-out and decayed aura he had smelled before came from this black robe "person". When Xia Duo came closer, he felt that the air seemed to become colder.

　　 This is indeed an undead creature.

　　 Of course, now it has truly and completely died.

　　 "Mage Xia Duo, we should leave." At this moment, Aiva reminded him euphemistically.

　　 "Oh, yes, yes, leave."

　　 Xia Duo also realized that it was wrong, and did not dare to move anything in the house at all. He walked quickly outside the house. Just out of the house, Xia Duo's heart suddenly lightened. He had never felt so warm in the early winter sun.

"so close!"

　　 Xia Duo couldn't help being afraid. He had been unknowingly affected by the negative energy just now in the house, but the subtle influence was hard to prevent.

　　 If it weren't for Aiva's reminder, he might still want to study the remains of the undead creature.

　　 In that case, it will be more severely corroded by negative energy.

　　……

　　 Back in the team, Chateau ordered everyone to leave immediately.

　　As the team got closer and closer to Savile Town, Xia Duo felt a little relieved. He had guessed that the foreign attacker might have been found by Old Neil, but after knowing that it was an undead creature, Xia Duo was full of doubts.

　　 Only with an ordinary person like Old Neil who runs a hotel in the Southern District, it is difficult for Xia Duo to associate him with the undead.

　　 This makes the assassin's motives very strange.

　　 Xia Duo consciously came to Savile Town for almost a year, and has always been a low-key person. How could anyone send an undead to kill him?

　　 What kind of hatred is this!

　　 can't figure it out, can't figure it out!

　　 Besides, except for a few undead creatures who awaken by themselves, generally speaking, there will be a master who can actually control them, and this master is generally a mage.

　　 So the question is coming, Xia Duo didn't even provoke ordinary people, how could he provoke a wizard?

　　 Think of a few official mages who have had intersections, are they? Or are they right? Or was it just that a passing mage saw her upset, and only left a skeleton to deal with him?

　　 Then after the skeleton failed, why didn’t the people behind the skeleton jump out and continue to kill him?

　　Too many doubts made Xia Duo's mind a little bit overwhelmed.

　　 "Xia Duo."

　　 "Sata!"

　　 "Ah?!" Xia Duo whispered, but Dean's thoughts just disappeared. He said angrily, "Dean, what's the matter with you?"

　　 Dean leaned on Xia Duo, and whispered: "What happened to the previous assassins? Why did you and Iva stay absent-minded after coming back after a while?"

　　 Xia Duo didn't plan to publicize the discovery or even killing of undead creatures everywhere, so as not to irritate the unknown mage, he planned to report back to it when he returned.

　　 In any case, being assassinated by an undead creature is a matter of life and death, and it is safer to report to it.

　　 Regardless of any consideration, an unknown mage hides in the dark and stares at him. The only thing he can ask for help is the mage tower.

　　 As for Dean’s question, Xia Duo made a sloppy look, "The traces left by the assassin are a bit strange. Iva let me go over and see."

　　 Dean was dubious about this answer, but couldn't find any reason to continue asking, so he had to give it up.

　　 After Dean noticed that he was absent-minded, Xia Duo pretended to be nonchalant. It's just that the unknown mage's pressure made him feel particularly heavy, which formed a sharp contrast with the ease when he set out.

　　 On the other side, Old Neil Hotel, second floor.

Old Neil, who has been ruled out of suspicion by Chateau, is now respectfully receiving a middle-aged man dressed as a businessman. Although this middle-aged man is dressed as a businessman, his every move reveals a strangeness. Style.

With Old Neil’s insight, of course he could not tell that the person in front of him was deliberately imitating the arcanists in the core area of ​​the empire. Although the movements were slightly artificial, in the eyes of Old Neil, they appeared extremely brilliant, far beyond the realm. Of any mage.

　　His attitude became more respectful, "My lord, I wonder if you have any instructions for calling me?"

　　 "Hehe. Did you know that it was your misinformation that caused me to lose a servant?"

When Old Neil heard it, the expression on his face was stunned. The next second he knelt on the ground and couldn’t help explaining~www.ltnovel.com~ My lord, that kid was really just an apprentice, so he joined the wizard tower. It's just a month, there are only a few ordinary soldiers around him, and the elite has long been transferred out by the lord. "

　　 "Well, do you know there is a high-level rogue next to him?"

The middle-aged mage couldn’t hear the joy or anger in his voice, but it just made Old Neil even more nervous, "High—high-level wanderer, this—this is definitely an accident. I know that kid, he is an outsider. It is absolutely impossible to know any high-level wanderer."

　　 "So, do you think I'm lying?"

"Don't dare, don't dare." Old Neil shook his head quickly. Although he did suspect that the middle-aged mage was lying, he did not dare to say it directly. When he brought this mage back from outside the day before yesterday, he had learned this The mages are powerful--

　　 just raised his hand, and a group of goblins rushing towards them fell to the ground instantly, turning into a bunch of horrible corpses.

　　 If it is possible, he would rather never meet this very dangerous foreign mage.

　　 "I need compensation."

　　 Hearing this, Old Neil was finally relieved, took two big breaths, and quickly agreed, "Yes, yes, I will definitely give the adults satisfactory compensation."

　　 Old Neil thought in his heart, I don’t know how much blood will come out this time! I don’t have much money at home, do you want to hire someone?

　　 "I want that necklace on your neck!"

　　 The indifferent words of the middle-aged mage instantly knocked Old Neil back to reality, and the "necklace" made Old Neil touch his chest subconsciously, and almost questioning words were also blurted out.

　　 "My lord, how do you know—"

　　 But then Old Neil kept silent, glanced back and forth on the ground, hated in his heart, but couldn't say what he refused.
