Chapter 48 Capture

A strange aroma of honey and walnuts slowly floated out from the large hole between Count Orwell's chest and abdomen, and gradually dispersed in the air. After Roland smelled and recognized this smell, his whole body was filled with excitement.

Startled.

After about a few seconds, the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised.

"It's really...interesting."

Roland has gradually come back to his senses.

No wonder Roland had a sense of instant vision just now.

This aroma is one of the characteristics of Flowing Fire Light, but the purity is not very high. If it were the purity of Flowing Fire Light that Roland used back then, it would smell like a burning candle when it comes into contact with the air.

.

Based on Roland's experience, since it turned into this color, it was probably mixed with a relatively high concentration of charm potion or dragon power potion - and looking at Orwell's state, Roland felt that it might be the former.

After smelling this iconic aroma, Roland finally remembered where he had seen such a human body bomb.

It is a city of wealth.

No, it is not accurate to say that I have seen it. At that time, Roland gave a bottle of Flowing Fire Light to a stupid homeless man named Old Tom. After he entered the water prison, Roland detonated the Flowing Fire Light in his body.

Blow up the water prison, which was heavily surrounded by guards, along with the Tillans Dam without any fighting.

If Roland hadn't witnessed the explosion, he would have realized this when he was attacked by Count Orwell.

In other words, the person who wanted to frame Roland must have a considerable understanding of Roland's methods.

But because of this, Roland felt frightened——

Is it a coincidence or intentional to use this method to frame Roland?

If it was intentional, did he already know Roland's identity?

And if it was just a coincidence that he used Orlando's method to deal with Roland... What purpose did he want to achieve by using Orlando's method to frame Roland?

Don't worry, I thought of going together - compared to Flowing Fire Light, the professor has a dozen inventions that can achieve better results and are cheaper.

At that time, the reason why Roland used the Light of Flowing Fire instead of other things was because Roland had no money.

The professor gave this box of Flowing Fire Light to Roland in order to collect experimental data. In fact, Roland didn't know why the professor was so generous and actually gave Roland a whole box of Flowing Fire Light.

Originally, Roland only wanted three. Even only two of the Flowing Fire Lights were necessary, and the rest could be replaced with ordinary explosives.

Under normal circumstances, the light of flowing fire is still used to pollute water sources, create flowing fire and mudslides, or is used as expensive military equipment to be used in conjunction with the rainstorm spell. Even after dilution, it is too wasteful to assassinate a person.

There are very obvious traces of imitation in this frame-up incident. And there is almost no hiding.

What Roland didn't know was whether the man behind the scenes wanted to warn Roland that he already knew Roland's secret, or whether he wanted to draw Roland's attention to Orlando.

No matter which one it is, Roland deserves to be vigilant.

Whether it is the malice directed at Roland or the malice directed at Orlando, they will eventually converge on Roland. And the malice directed at Orlando is more troublesome, because Orlando is dead, and Roland has no position to speak for Orlando.

Throwing the blame on the speechless dead has been a skill that humans have been good at since ancient times.

So, who is... the professor? No. Impossible.

Even if this was the light of flowing fire, Roland was very sure that it was impossible for the professor to use such a dirty trick. For him, bothering to think about a trick to frame others was an insult to himself.

From the perspective of an alchemist, there is nothing more wasteful and shameless than thinking other than creation. It is an insult to human intelligence and reduces human thinking to the same level as the hunting of beasts.

of evil deeds.

Just following instincts to fight and plunder is not noble at all. This is one of the reasons why alchemists hate wizards.

Wait, there seems to be another possibility...

An inspiration flashed through Roland's mind. But before Roland could catch it, the severe pain in his chest interrupted Roland's thinking.

Roland looked down and found two crossbow arrows shining with green light embedded in his chest.

"Children's stuff...it's really ridiculous."

Roland chuckled lightly, stretched out his hand to pull out the arrows from his chest, and threw them aside as if nothing had happened. I hope that the arrows designed to be easily broken when pulled out will be spit out by the wriggling of mercury.

.

After the arrow left Roland's body, Roland's flesh and blood began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye. Tentacle-like mercury entangled and bulged around the wound, and even his clothes grew out.

Immediately, frightened by this strange situation, the gathered guards suddenly stopped their progress.

The impression of the mystery and power of druids has long been planted in the hearts of the Kalar people. Although most people don't know what druids can do, this does not affect their imagination.

Roland's recovery speed from fatal injuries and his complete disregard for toxins made these people realize very clearly that Roland was definitely not a novice.

For a moment, facing a black-robed Druid, the guards of the Earl's Mansion couldn't help but feel weak.

Just looking at him from a distance, the pressure was enough to make their legs numb, their fingertips cold, and their hearts beating violently.

They have not forgotten what the black robed druid represents.

If the Earl has committed any serious crime, if they rush forward at this time, it will undoubtedly be a crime of following him, and they will enjoy the same punishment as Earl Orwell.

As for what Orwell's punishment is...just look at the ground.

However, even if they wanted to retreat, the housekeeper was watching from behind, so they couldn't retreat.

Suddenly the two sides fell into a stalemate.

But at this moment, Roland suddenly heard two superimposed exclamations: "Dad!"

not good!

In an instant, alarm bells rang in the hearts of Roland and the guards.

Orwell's two children will undoubtedly break the current deadlock. Although Roland feels that they should not be able to stop him... but just in case.

After a slight hesitation, Roland decided to take two steps back to avoid Count Orwell's body first.

"Everyone, calm down...see who I am first."

Roland was very calm and said in a helpless tone: "I have just arrived, and your colleagues also saw me before... Yes, it's you, right?"

For a moment, all the guards turned their attention to the guard who led Roland.

"Yes, but..."

He retorted with some hesitation.

But before he had any reaction, Roland replied lightly: "There's nothing good to say. That's just the way it is, I'm innocent."

"I think I need to explain this matter to you...otherwise, I can just walk away. Can you still catch me?"

Roland's sincere tone made his words more credible.

That's right. Because that's exactly what it is.

For a moment, the guards showed obvious hesitation.

If the commander gives the order now, there is a high probability that these guards will not be able to carry out the order.

"Why can't I catch up?"

An old and smiling voice sounded behind Roland.

The moment he spoke, Roland felt his presence. A pinprick-like sense of crisis quickly swept from his back to his spine, and Roland's expression suddenly changed -

The next moment, Roland felt something splashing on him. The liquid, which was colder than the cold wind in the north, was sprinkled on Roland's body in large swaths with bone-chilling coldness! (To be continued.) Mobile phone
