Throne of Magical Arcana

…………………………………………………………………………

Noble area, in the study of Viscount Klein.

Viscount Klein was tied to the armchair, his neat black hair was in a mess, and his deep green eyes were fixed on the man wearing a funny clown mask in front of him.

The clown, who knew the magician "Sage" very well, easily restrained Viscount Klein under the surprise attack by virtue of his fifth-level strength.

"You are the clown the princess mentioned, right? You are so crazy, you dare to attack me!" Viscount Klein, the consul of Alto Town Hall, scolded angrily and a little bit in fear.

The clown looked up to the sky and laughed: "Master Viscount, don't tell me that the magic you used just now was inspired by objects, what's wrong with me arresting an evil magician according to the provisions of the Holy Scriptures, or you want me to call you 'sage' 'gentlemen?"

Viscount Klein's feigned anger collapsed, and he said in astonishment, "Why do you..."

In the middle of speaking, he hurriedly stopped, as if worried that the clown was here to deceive him.

"Master Viscount, we have known about your situation for a long time, but we have not arrested you. This is mainly to see if you will repent. After all, you are a nobleman with a high status, but unfortunately you have not. But you still have one last time Opportunity, as long as you tell me the professor's whereabouts, you can continue to retain your status as a nobleman and consul, and you only need to secretly join the night watchman team." The clown looked out the window, worried that the "real" night watchmen would come at any time.

Viscount Klein was stunned, and then sneered: "It turned out to be to arrest the professor. It is indeed dangerous to communicate with characters on this purification sequence, but I don't believe you. You have been removed from the Night Watch team and are a dangerous fugitive. I'll wait until the real Night's Watch arrives."

He behaved like a clown expected, without the bottom line and persistence to keep secrets, just like most nobles who are arrogant but smooth, if the interests are enough, he can even cooperate with the devil! So after he knew that his identity had been exposed and he was arrested, he would judge the situation more than other magicians.

And his current ridicule is obviously to fight for better conditions!

The clown's exaggerated smile approached Viscount Klein, and he clicked his tongue: "It's a good idea, but you met me, and I was very impatient. I was afraid of procrastinating and arousing the alert of the professor, so I wronged you, Viscount Klein."

Just when Klein's expression changed dramatically, the clown's ten fingers began to move, causing Klein's muscles to twitch. His eyes and mouth opened and closed under the clown's command.

Gradually, "Sage" Klein's eyes began to cloud, as if not only his body was being manipulated, but his brain and soul were also being controlled.

Compared with other night watchmen who are knights, the clown can ask for real information even without using magical means.

"What's your code name? Are you an official magician? What department?" The clown first adjusted the effect with simple questions.

Klein's eyes recovered from the turbidity, and he looked the same as before, but he smiled uncharacteristically: "Reporting to Mr. Clown, I am an official magician, code-named Sage, and I am good at astrology. Since I can't activate the power of blood, and I don't have any potions The formula, and the status at that time could not be bestowed by the Grand Duke, so I found out some books secretly collected by my ancestors after killing the magician and began to study, trying to restore the formula of medicine that stimulates the power of the blood, and found that I have the specialty of the astrology system, so Getting deeper and deeper."

After confirming the effect, the clown didn't ask Klein any more questions about himself, and said bluntly, "How did you meet the professor this time? How should you contact him?"

"Reporting to Mr. Clown, I was approached by the professor after I came back from the concert that night. He used the four-ring magic 'mirror reflection' to talk to me from a distance, and asked to participate in the latest gathering of the magic circle so that the headquarters of the Magic Council Tell them the news." Klein replied without concealment, "After I agreed, we met privately once in an uninhabited garden villa at No. 116 in Jisu District. The contact number is... But I don't know what he really is His hiding place, the meeting was his pre-determined location."

"Sure enough, he is a cautious, insidious and cunning professor. Would it be possible to use contact symbols to design traps, but it is easy to be seen through by a guy like him who likes to use schemes." The clown muttered first, not thinking that his IQ could be compared with the professor.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, "No. 116, Jisu District? Isn't it the place where Lucien Evans used to live? It's in a remote environment, and it hasn't been rented out yet. Only an old servant is watching. It's very suitable for hiding ! Given the secret relationship between the professor and Lucien, he is probably hiding there!"

The clown felt his blood boil and trembled with excitement, because he might have found out where the professor was hiding. If he hadn't investigated Lucien Evans thoroughly, without missing any details, no one would have thought of it.

But he was terrified by the professor, forced himself to calm down, and analyzed whether there were traps and conspiracies: "Lucien Evans is recuperating in a villa in the noble district, and Natasha is said to be dealing with the principality's affairs today, and has never left Lataxia Palace." , if they suddenly appear at No. 116, Jisu District, anyone with eyes can see that it is a conspiracy against me and the night watchmen. After all, I did not sneak into Lucien Evans' house, and they have no reason to appear there in the middle of the night .”

"Design me to fight with other powerhouses? Impossible, this is in the city of Alto, not the Black Forest of Melzer. As long as there is a fight at my level, the high-level powerhouses will soon be alarmed, and Juliana and the others will follow up." They will also come with the night watchman squad and the head of the referee."

...

The clown knew that the most ideal way was to wait for Juliana and the others to do it, but the flames in his heart were burning fiercely. The grief and indignation of being wronged and ordered to be executed, and the anger of seeing his companions die all made him want to grab the professor with his own hands. , and he also has a certain degree of confidence in his own strength. After all, he has had contact with the professor and has first-hand information. He is not a person who judges his terrifying strength based on the purification sequence.

After careful analysis, seeing that Juliana and the others hadn't come yet, and worried that his actions against Klein would arouse the professor's vigilance, the clown quickly made a decision: "I'll go there and investigate carefully, step by step carefully." See Is there a concealed magic circle for ambush? If you can find the professor, then entangle him, arouse the induction of Alto's magic circle, and let the high-level powerhouses pay attention. If you can't find it, or the villa is too weird, just Hide and turn it over to the Night's Watch large force.

After using his puppet ability to seal Viscount Klein's spiritual power, the clown picked up a pen and paper on the desk to write out the information he found out. This was to avoid the night watchman who came behind asking Klein and wasting time. It's time to confirm from Klein's mouth according to what he wrote.

After doing all this, the clown left the noble area and rushed to No. 116, Jisu District.

The entire garden villa is shrouded in dark shadows, like a lurking monster, which makes people palpitate.

The clown carefully and carefully checked the surroundings of the garden villa, and found that there was no trace of the magic circle arrangement, so he gradually became more courageous, dragged out the residual shadow and sneaked in, but along the way, he did not forget to check the surroundings, and would rather slow down. I don't want to fall into the professor's trap.

The villa was empty, and after the old servant who was guarding the place passed out, the clown hid in the darkness while carefully inspecting house by house, trying to find clues.

Soon, the basement and the first floor were inspected, and the clown went up to the second floor more cautiously.

…………

The home of Viscount Klein.

Valdo, the "Proctor" of the Violet Court, led a small team of night watchmen to the second floor quietly, trying to find and control Viscount Klein.

They didn't come to arrest them openly, fearing that the nobles in the surrounding villas would notice and leak the news, allowing the professor to escape.

As soon as he stepped onto the second floor, Waldo, whose big brown beard almost covered his entire face, suddenly twitched his nostrils slightly, and then he said solemnly: "I smell the smell of blood, and I feel the breath of death."

"What? Lord Waldo, is there something wrong with Viscount Klein, or did he kill the insider and escape?" Juliana worried that the clown could not control the madness in her dark blood.

Waldo was tall, and he walked to the door of the study in two or three steps, and said solemnly: "There is only one dead person, and it smells like the blood of the Moshi family."

The Moshi family is the family that Viscount Klein belongs to.

As he spoke, he pushed open the door, and a strong smell of blood came over his face.

Juliana and the others looked into the room vigilantly, and frowned all of a sudden. Even the night watchman, who was used to murder and death, subconsciously resisted the slaughterhouse-like dismemberment scene.

In the whole room, flesh and blood flew everywhere, pieces of tiny pieces of meat and drops of blood were everywhere, and no complete bone or flesh could be found, giving people a bloody, cruel, monstrous and disgusting feeling.

"Such a murder scene looks familiar..." an unknown night watchman said.

Most of the night watchmen immediately remembered that the guy who was torn by the "clown" puppet thread was basically like this.

"Impossible, Captain, he can't kill Viscount Klein." Juliana said to herself palely.

Waldo ignored the filth and blood in the room, and stepped over to the desk in one step, picked up the paper that was pressed by the ink bottle, read it carefully, and then his voice became louder, and he said solemnly: "It was the clown who left the paper." He confirmed that Viscount Klein is a sage, and guessed that the professor is hiding at No. 116, Jisu District. This is his handwriting and the internal code of the night watchman, and no one can imitate it."

Even Juliana, who believed in clowns the most, couldn't help gasping, and began to believe that after the clown asked the whereabouts of the professor, the blood boiled with excitement and executed the evil magician.

If the status of the sage is not Viscount Klein, this is not a strange and serious matter for the night watchman.

"Viscount Klein is a magician's business. There is definite evidence inside the court. He should be killed for resisting arrest. Let's hurry to No. 116, Jisu district. The professor may have some conspiracy." Waldo is the court's judge. Among the three people in charge, the one who was more sympathetic to the clown gently suppressed this matter.

"Yes, Lord Valdor!" The rest of the night watchman said in unison. An evil magician kills and kills!

…………

While guarding against the trap and the appearance of the professor, the clown carefully checked the traces in the room on the second floor, but it was indeed in a state where no one had come for a long time and it was neglected to clean.

One after another, when the clown was about to be disappointed, he suddenly felt someone in the study in front of him!

The great knight's consciousness made him clearly aware of a man leaning against the French window, seemingly enjoying the cool night breeze.

"Professor?!" The clown was taken aback, he never expected to find the professor so easily and so easily!

And he didn't find himself before?

Although there were many doubts, when facing the evil and powerful middle-level magician, the clown didn't dare to be careless, and directly popped out the puppet string, and at the same time dodged to the side, speeding up to avoid being locked.

With the full strength of the fifth-level great knight, the door of the room shattered, and the clown who turned into an afterimage was shocked to see that the man by the window turned out to be Lucien Evans!

He stood twisted with his whole body bound, a stiff and strange smile appeared on his handsome face, and then under the action of an inexplicable force, he fell directly backwards, falling downstairs like a swan shot by a bow and arrow.

The black dress that was wrinkled by the ropes, the stiff and weird smile, and the scene of falling backwards that seemed to be frozen, made up a strange oil painting that was forever imprinted in the clown's mind.

The professor actually killed Lucien Evans in order to frame him?

This is a situation that the clown could never have guessed.

In mid-air, Lucien Evans bloomed like a flower, blood and pieces of flesh splashed everywhere.
