After the auction incident, Angele asked Hailan and Deimos to track the whereabouts of the young man named Anua. Unfortunately, the young man disappeared like a stone, with no trace at all.
The two major families in the city seemed to have reached some kind of agreement, and there was no further quarrel, but they quickly calmed down. No trace of Knowledge Anua ever appeared again. Even Nisi, who left with him, no longer had any traces.
message.
One month later, in the afternoon...
In the study room of Timos's private residence.
Angelet sat with his legs crossed on a high-backed chair in the study, holding a glass of green fruit wine in his hand and drinking it slowly.
Deimos and another middle-aged male noble with black hair were sitting on the side. They were discussing the topic of sacred weapons with a calm expression.
"Holy Arms is a relatively advanced level among Concept Arms. But the situation at the auction that day, the speed at which it disappeared instantly, does not seem to be something that can be produced by Concept Arms with life energy as the main body. It is more like the methods of those wizards.
." The middle-aged noble frowned and said slowly. Most of them did not see the scene that was frozen in an instant. What they saw was just the scene before and after the stasis. It was as if Anua was moving instantly, from one place to another.
The place lasts only a moment.
"A rare treasure like the Monlisa Stone is actually a conceptual weapon. This is what surprises me the most." Dimos said, "Someone saw Anua leaving Lennon City with Nisi and entering.
The forest outside the city. This matter has come to an end. Legendary things like Conceptual Arms are completely rare. We don’t need to waste too much time on it. And the curse on the Holy Arms can
It completely turns the holder into a killing machine. Even if you give me this kind of thing, I won’t want it.”
"Just because of the loss of this treasure, Anua's family will probably decline from now on." The middle-aged man said with emotion. "The once prominent family has withered because of a key treasure."
"Stop talking about this, how long will Mr. Monty stay at Lennon this time?" Demos asked.
"There are about ten days left. I'm waiting for my people to come back from the dock." The middle-aged man frowned. "Lord Angele, since you are a member of the legendary Ram's Academy, I want to express my gratitude to you.
Is it okay to ask about a disease?" He turned his eyes and looked at Angelet, who was listening to the two people talking.
"Of course, no problem." Angelet nodded.
Monty cleared his throat. "Recently, there is a plague in the southern provinces. Those who are infected will slowly develop red blisters all over their bodies within three days, densely distributed all over the body. The blisters are not filled with thick liquid, but
It's blood. On the third day, with just a slight touch, the blisters will explode instantly, causing the patient to lose a lot of blood and die. Have you ever heard of this disease?"
Angelet originally just listened with casual thoughts, but as Monty described it, his expression gradually became serious.
"Are you sure there is blood in the blisters?" he asked carefully.
"Yes." Monty nodded. "Now the upper echelons of the kingdom are feeling very troubled by this plague. They sent several groups of people to the epidemic areas in the southern province. But they all returned without success. According to what is known now, at least
Thousands of people were infected with this plague, and the situation was very bad. It was said that in one lord's territory, everyone died."
Angelet's expression became completely serious at this time.
"Mr. Monty, although we don't have much contact, if you believe me, it's best not to go to the epidemic area in the future. Don't even get close." He said in a heavy tone. "If I guessed correctly, this should be febrile disease.
.Unless you are a knight, most people will die if you encounter it."
Monty's expression also changed and he nodded fiercely. "Even if you don't remind me, I won't go near there. I feel hairy all over listening to the rumors."
"I remember that more than a hundred years ago, in 1430, there was a large-scale outbreak of febrile disease in Santiago. At that time, more than 100,000 people died. The entire Santiago was seriously injured, and a large number of people fled the country. If this happened
It's okay if the sub-febrile disease is small-scale. If it's large-scale..." Angelet didn't finish his words, but the meaning in his tone was understood by the other two.
"Don't worry about this. The disease is now under control." Monty explained, "The entire epidemic area has been quarantined."
"That's good." Angelet nodded.
"In addition, I have also collected a lot of the medicine prescriptions you asked me to help find. I don't know if any of them meet your requirements." Monty continued, "I collected them all along the way to the Imperial Capital. Some time ago, Dimos asked
I helped find the prescription for the medicine. I didn’t know what was going on, but now I know it’s Master Angele who wants to use it.”
A smile appeared at the corner of Angelet's mouth. "Approximately how many prescriptions are there?"
"There are already more than thirty prescriptions for various medicines." Monty smiled, "I'll have someone deliver them to your residence later."
"So what's the price?" Angelet nodded.
"Lord Timos will pay for it. We all settle the accounts at the end of the year." Monty is just an ordinary person who has no knightly talent at all. Naturally, he has a strong interest in making friends with any strong person. In fact, he doesn't at all.
Deimos will be asked to pay, and it will not be recorded in the ledger, but Monty will naturally not take the initiative to tell this fact himself. In many cases, it will appear more sincere if others find out on their own.
After the phosphorescent giant elephant incident, Angele also exchanged the unimportant parts of the giant elephant's body for a large amount of gold coins, which was not short of money. So he asked Deimos' friend Sir Monty in the imperial capital to collect more medicine prescriptions.
, anyway, we were heading to the southern province along the way. However, I didn’t expect that Dimos actually paid the fee first.
"Angelet, do you and I need to talk about this?" Deimos said with a smile while covering his face.
"Well, thank you very much this time." Angelet said casually. These medicine prescriptions are naturally not wizard's medicine prescriptions, they are just ordinary medicines used by ordinary people. Angelet just wanted to collect information from them to use
It just enriches the knowledge base. The cost is only a few thousand gold coins at most.
*****************
After leaving the Timos mansion, Angele got on the black carriage at the door and drove towards the newly purchased manor.
This month, he moved from his original shop to a new manor, and the cost was only more than 10,000 gold coins. Compared with the more than 500,000 gold coins he got from the phosphorescent giant elephant, it was not a big expense.
As for meditation, his mental power is now much more stable. The mental power that was forcibly catalyzed by the potion in the first place has also been condensed and stabilized a lot. But unfortunately, his physical fitness has dropped by 1 point. It should be the graphite potion and the negative energy.
The sequelae of energy corroding itself.
Angelet now has almost nothing to do except studying potions and spells, meditating, and teaching Tia every day. He occasionally visits Deimos or Hailan.
Now his mental power has completely stopped increasing. Although he later collected Night Hive, his body seems to have become resistant to the drug. There is no trace of growth in his mental power. No matter how much he meditates, Angelet guesses that he must have reached the level of wizard.
He has reached his limit. So besides condensing his energy every day, he is also preparing to return to the academy.
To be promoted to a wizard requires the water of Yasu and defensive spells. Both of these are urgently needed for him now. Returning to the academy is the fastest way to obtain these two conditions, and there is no news about his whereabouts at all. So Angelet is now facing
The news from the college is becoming more and more important.
Sitting in the carriage, it was already winter. The afternoon sunlight shone through the window and fell on the back of Angelet's hand, forming an irregular yellow spot with almost no warmth. It was more cold.
The cold wind kept pouring in.
"It's already 1542, and in a blink of an eye, it's winter again." Angelet tightened his collar and looked out of the car window.
The trees on the roadside are bare, and the passers-by who occasionally pass by are also wearing tight clothes. The whole street is gray-white. The sunlight shining on the ground has almost no color, it is very light.
"What day is it today? Old Tom." Angelet asked the coachman loudly.
The driver was a coachman sent by Lord Alf specifically to drive him. His name was Tom, but his surname was unclear. Maybe even his name was just a nickname.
"It's already November, it seems to be the 18th, sir." Tom answered outside the car curtain.
"Is it the 18th? It should be almost the same at Hailan." Angele nodded, "Go directly to Tuanlan Prison. No need to go home yet."
"Okay sir."
The carriage sped up on the deserted street. Turn left along the Y-shaped intersection ahead, picking up a few yellow leaves on the ground.
***********************
Twist Blue Prison. The only death row prison in Lennon City.
It is located in the most remote area of the city surrounded by woods.
Among the large green woods, a yellow manor-style building complex stands quietly.
The light yellow walls and sharp building roofs are like the tops of castles or churches. These buildings are surrounded by a circle of wooden fences, and outside the fences are groups of guards constantly patrolling. They are surrounded by
Wearing black heavy armor, holding long swords or hammers. All of them had cold faces.
From the buildings inside the fence, faint screams can be heard from time to time. They are the struggles of the death row prisoners before their death.
A black carriage followed the path in the woods, slowly approached, and finally stopped on the grass outside the fence entrance.
"Here we are, sir." The coachman was a simple and honest middle-aged man with a short haircut and dark skin.
The car curtain opened, and a young man with a gloomy face stepped out of the car. He was wearing a black hunting suit and long black leather boots. He looked a little cold.
This person is none other than Angelet.
A group of patrolling guards took the initiative to greet him.
"Is this Lord Angele?" asked the captain leading the team.
Angelet nodded.
"Master Hailan has given instructions in advance. You can come in and out at will. But you can only be alone." The captain wore a helmet on his head and his voice sounded a little loud.
"I know." Angelet strode through the fence and walked towards the church-like building inside. The screams coming from inside became clearer.
There was a faint chill and tension in the air.
Blue light flashed in Angelet's eyes. In the corner of his field of vision, a line of data was suddenly displayed.
The grass beneath his feet was soft, like a blanket. Walking to the front building, Angele knocked lightly on the heavy brown wooden door.
Dong Dong.
With a click, a small window opened in the door, and a fat guard glanced at Angelet from the window.
"It turns out to be Master Angele, you are finally here. If you don't come, that guy will die soon." The fat guard muttered, and quickly opened the door amidst the sound of chains.
"As long as you're still alive," Angelet said calmly.
After the door is opened, there is a dark brown stone corridor inside, with small skylights on the walls on both sides. The light yellow sunlight slants in from the skylight on the right, hitting the black ground, and a cold and moist air blows in.
