Vol 9 Chapter 24: Missing minor issues
Ten empress gold coins? Downey's breathing suddenly became a little heavier. Although he knew for a long time that he would earn a lot of income after becoming a formal magician, he had been in school before. Many subsidies were directly allocated arcane points, and basically no cash. Trading, so after hearing the quotation of ten empress gold coins, I still couldn't help but my heartbeat speeded up and I spit quietly.
Ten emperor gold coins are nothing to aristocrats, wealthy merchants and magicians, but Downey was born into a civilian family in a small town. He has not seen a single gold coin in his life so far. It is a trip, without really solving the problem, you can harvest a lot of wealth that can significantly improve his family environment.
If you want to continue the path of the magician, materials, scrolls, books, extraordinary items, etc. are inevitable things, and they all need the support of wealth!
If the problem is really solved, how much will Baron Herdos pay?
Downey's thoughts rolled and his voice became slightly hoarse: "If I could solve this problem, how much would the baron pay me?"
The steward's look remained unchanged, and he did not laugh at Downey's self-control. To know that a tricyclic magician had taken the shot before, but he could not resolve the matter. He respectfully said: "My master said that if Mr. White The castle is restored to tranquility. In addition to these ten emperor gold coins, you will also be given a 'magic glove', which is a second-class extraordinary item. "
Extraordinary items? Downey only felt the blood surged and almost agreed.
Fortunately, his long-term meditation and spell-casting practice kept him awake, and he calmly said: "Baron Herdos is the lord of the town and I can help him, but I need some previous mages and The apprentice's record of the castle's peculiarities, and if I'm sure, I'll go to the castle in person. "
It's better to be cautious about this kind of thing.
A smile appeared on the respectful face of the steward, and he pulled out a thick pile of documents from his arms: "This is the record you need."
Feeling Downey's surprise, he explained with a smile: "My master is no stranger to magicians, so I know you will need this."
Donnie was relieved, took the record, cast a spell and looked at it, and found that there were no traces of tampering, and then read it carefully.
After a long time, he rubbed his papers and calmly said, "It's just that the two apprentices were so surprised that they jumped out of the castle window and fell there. There is no record of the mage's death. Well, to me, there should be nothing Dangerous, Mr. Housekeeper, please take me to see the Baron. "
的 The first half of his sentence was not addressed to the steward, but to the parents and sister, so as not to worry them.
Sure enough, after hearing his explanation, Lily and Mrs. White, all worried about trying to stop, relieved, and a smile began to emerge from their hearts. His son (brother) could be valued by the Lord Lord. This is the glory of his family. It was the right choice to let him go to general education!
——As civilians, they are more afraid and obedient to lords than to ordinary magicians.
Downey's father, Old White, nodded excitedly, so that Downey did not have to worry about his family's affairs.
Uh ...
The hills near the small town are undulating, covered with evergreen trees, and a dark and ancient castle stands beside a beautiful and quiet lake, which complements the surrounding landscape.
In the old castle, Downey sat on the sofa with Baron Herdos, who was sallow and coughing.
"This is an old castle that our family has passed on for nine hundred years, and it is a symbol of our Herdos family, but the haunting phenomenon of recent decades has made us restless. I hope Mr. White can help you solve it, you are a Necromancer. Professional. "Baron Herdos said weakly.
He lived in a villa in the city, and basically did not return to the castle. Today, he was waiting here specifically for Donny. Since the laying of electrical systems has increased, various alchemy items have become popular. More and more nobles like to live in the city. Villas or suburbs can enjoy these convenient manors, and similar old castles have gradually become furnishings, unless future infrastructure can penetrate the mountains and forests.
Although Downey is a necromancer in the direction of "body structure and genetic factors", the relevant knowledge of ghosts and evil spirits is a compulsory course at Heidler College, so he is no stranger to this and asks solemnly: "I don't know dozens What happened last year that led to haunting? I hope you can tell me everything, don't miss it. "
The sudden appearance of haunting is certainly not without reason.
"It really isn't, a few wizards have asked it before." Baron Herdos answered with a grin.
Although the magician he hired before was not a professional in the Necromancy department, since he was going to solve this matter, the necessary preliminary investigation would still be done-unless he was crazy, no magician is a completely reckless guy, Especially the current Arcanist, clear thinking and clear logic are the basic characteristics!
"It seems to have suddenly appeared, who may have done something secretly, but after such a long time, the clue is long gone." Baron Herdos added.
Downey nodded: "I hope you will give me the family information of that period, all kinds of information, I live here tonight and rely on them to" pass "time."
"Please come to Mr. Downey tonight." Baron Herdos nodded slightly, and then he left ten empress gold coins on the table, left the castle with the butler, and returned to the city.
The servants in the castle came during the day and left before the evening. No one dared to live here. Therefore, with the departure of Baron Herdos and his party, the castle restored its deep tranquility. The fire in the fireplace was burning, but it could not be. Scatters the deep cold.
Downey inspected the castle for nothing, then found a bedroom, started meditation, kept energy, and waited for the night to come.
when! when! when!
Three bells rang and the old wall clock "signified" the arrival of ten o'clock in the night, and according to the data of Downey's hand, all the haunting phenomena occurred after this time.
boom! boom! boom!
As soon as the chirps stopped, Downey heard a dull and strange sound, and frowned. This was the sound of the cold wind blowing the window against the window frame? But I checked it before, all the windows are closed!
挲 rubbing the magician badge on his chest with his right hand, Downey opened the door, entered the corridor, and walked towards the place where the sound was made.
boom!
A huge and dull crash sounded behind Donny's back, scaring him to turn around quickly, only to see that the door of the room he had just left closed automatically!
Alas, alas!
Weakness, like a hallucinatory cry, came down to Donny's ears and heard his pores shrink. He would not have been able to stay calm unless he had experienced several real nightmares.
Alas!
The howling wind made a whining sound, and suddenly blew in the corridor.
A candlestick went out, and the darkness completely covered the castle.
Donnie quickly ran a "brightness", and the gloves immediately glowed red like a torch, illuminating the surroundings.
Suddenly, a cold breath blew down Donny's neck, stabbing him into a cold hair, and then the "brightness" ended silently and silently!
"This evil spirit is more terrifying than described!"
Downey "sees" all kinds of undead in the nightmare, and feels more clearly about the power of this evil spirit than ordinary magicians. He felt a little anxiety in his heart, quickened his pace, and walked directly towards the castle gate. "It Interrupting my spells made me unaware! How could those magicians survive in the past? "
Generally, these evil spirits are trapped somewhere, as long as they leave the castle, they are safe!
"Giggle!"
A white blurry figure fluttered in front of me, laughing sternly:
"If they weren't allowed to leave, why would anyone 'feed me' food again and again?"
Donnie was shocked. Does it know what it thinks? Or are you shaking your mind with illusion and language?
"Don't worry, I won't eat you directly, I will slowly and slowly **** your soul." This figure flickered, giving Donny no chance to lock in, "Since being awakened, I have always been It ’s very modest and only takes less than half of it. This allows you to forget what you ’re experiencing and take the initiative to come every few months. ”
Donny walked alertly, unaffected by language, and the evil spirit did not stop him.
This made him feel a little at ease, feeling that the evil spirit was nothing but appearance. At this moment, the gate of the castle appeared in front of him.
I just ran away!
Donny opened the door, but outside the hall is the castle hall!
Frightened in horror, a chill rose from under his feet, quickly paralyzing him.
"Haha, I like this kind of panic emotion most." A pale and illusive face was highlighted in front of Downey, his mouth opened, and the stench slammed on Downey's face, making him dizzy, Nor could he concentrate on casting the spell Looking vaguely at the face, Downey only felt that the meaning of coldness and coldness was getting stronger and stronger, and his soul seemed to be frozen.
That nightmare is okay, and the result is to die in the hands of this not too strong evil spirit?
Suddenly, Downey felt the coldness of his right hand surging, and then it lifted up uncontrollably and grabbed the face in front of him.
This is my right hand?
Downey's pupils reflected a monotonous black and white gray palm. Seeing it was like seeing death without any vitality, death that never fades!
"No?" The evil spirit screamed miserably, seeming to see the most feared and most afraid of things.
Then, it stood still as if waiting for Downey's right hand.
穿过 Through his right hand, the evil spirit split and disintegrated, plunged into black and white, and disappeared.
Donnie recovered his spirit and quickly performed the light surgery, and saw that everything was normal as usual, except that the candlelight went out.
"Illusion? No, it must be true!" Downey raised his right hand, looked at it without any abnormalities, and muttered to himself, "What happened? Why did my right hand become like this?"
Before that moment, he felt that he was the master of death!
与 "Yes, it feels like the black and white gray and black armor in the nightmare!" Downey suddenly raised his head, his face was full of cold sweat.
Uh ...
Outside the castle, a tall black shadow stood quietly and smiled, "It's really not that easy to solve all problems." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to subscribe to the mobile network (), call Reward, your support is my greatest motivation.)
