Soruman Bronzebeard and Andrew Luna rushed to the church
"Dwarf, stay outside." The church guard in front of the steps stopped them.
Soruman Bronzebeard stopped without surprise and let Andrew Luna enter.
Andrew Luna walked into the church and followed the nun's guidance to the lounge.
Michael, who was closer, had already rushed over and stood next to Annan.
Seeing that Annan was still awake, Andrew Luna breathed a sigh of relief: "How are you?"
"It's very bad..." Annan lowered his eyes slightly, "The treatment fee actually costs five gold..."
It seems that since becoming a warlock, my expenses have suddenly increased unreasonably.
Annan misses the unfettered life of being able to travel around Pinglin Town with just a few copper coins.
"Bronzebeard said you were attacked?"
But it seems that Annan is fine. The treatment fee is five gold coins... which is probably some non-fatal sharp weapon injuries.
"A group of gangsters attacked me on the street and cut off the tendons in my arm." Annan raised his arm, which had fully recovered after the magic treatment and no longer hurt. "I thought Breeze City was safe, but I didn't expect that they even had warlocks."
Dare to attack."
It's better to be robbed by them... Anyway, I only have a few silver coins with me.
"It has nothing to do with security, they are here for you." Michael, who had always been silent, suddenly said.
Annan and Andrew Luna looked at it at the same time, and Annan asked: "Why do you say that?"
"You really don't know?" Michael looked at Annan strangely.
"Know what?"
"Are you feeling better?" The approach of the nun in the lounge stopped their discussion.
The extravagant nun's uniform with gold threads draped around her body reminded Annan of the money lost in treatment: "It's still a little sad."
"It doesn't matter, young sorcerer, magic can make you happy." The gentle nun said considerately.
"I'm not sad at all now!"
Michael has paid for the magic, which is the only thing that makes Annan happy.
After leaving this place called the Church of the Goddess of Wealth, which was actually the Gold Selling Cave, they walked out along the corridor and said:
"About two months ago, the convoy of Levis Reeves, the new city lord of Breeze City, the only male and heir to the Reeves family, was attacked in the quiet forest near Pinglin Town."
Annan waited for Michael to continue, but he stopped here, and Andrew Luna looked at him thoughtfully.
"What does this have to do with me being attacked?"
"Levis Reeves is about the same age as you. He inherited the black hair of his ancestors, and his body was not found at the attack site."
"So you think I am that boy?" Annan suddenly realized why Fast and the others were always looking at him and muttering, "But the ones who attacked me were just a group of gangsters..."
"Maybe it was just an accident?"
…
Beech Street
It was here that Annan was attacked.
Send Annan back to the attic and let Soruman Bronzebeard guard him while Andrew Luna and Michael come to investigate the scene.
After a brief investigation, it was concluded that several people died, but they were all local gangsters. The person who killed them was a spell caster, and the natural privileges prevented the guards from summoning Annan to cooperate with the investigation. But the answer is very clear, whether the gangster provokes the spell caster, or
The caster provokes the gangsters - and they deserve to die.
But according to residents on this street, they heard terrifying roars and pressure - and said it must be a dragon.
Of course Andrew Luna and Michael didn't believe it, they just thought it was some kind of low-level spell like "giant beast intimidation".
"Look here, the cobweb-like incoherent blood, the body was torn into several pieces by some huge force, and one of them fell here." As he spoke, Michael frowned and looked into the distance.
This is not the scene... the real scene is a few hundred yards away. He knows that many spells can annihilate the body, but he can't think of any spell that can keep the body parts intact and throw them so far away that even the scavengers haven't found them.
"The wound is scorched." Andrew Luna squatted beside the broken body and recalled the news he heard in the tavern. "Look at these twig-like lines... they are not flames, but lightning."
They approached the scene and saw a piece of butt hanging on the treetop in the yard of a house.
They came to the real scene again, which was much more serious. The ground was covered with debris, and the scavengers and soldiers were trying to find ways to dig out the flesh paste stuck on the walls and damaged floor tiles.
Andrew Luna reminded the scavenger that there was a rock ahead and a butt on the tree. Although the rat infestation in Breeze City is slight, never give the rat man a chance.
"Is this a trace caused by Annan's spell? This scratch...is it like a dragon's paw print?" As he investigated further, Michael looked like he had seen a dragon. "There were also traces of lightning. It was a blue dragon.
?”
Michael and Andrew Luna are both well-informed people, and their judgments are almost infallible. In other words, there were four possibilities at the time:
One, Annan summoned a blue dragon to kill these gangsters.
Second, Annan was actually a druid who transformed into a blue dragon and beat the gangster away after being attacked.
Third, the blue dragons were summoned by those gangsters, but they fought among themselves and killed each other.
Fourth, a passing blue dragon dropped down to help Annan defeat the gangsters.
Michael and Andrew Luna look at each other.
In other words, Annan did summon a blue dragon.
…
"I guess it's not an accident."
Michael returned to the attic first. Not long after, Andrew Luna, who was investigating the clues like a detective, came back and said the information he had found: "This is just a test."
"Test?"
"Test whether you are Levi's Reeves."
"Those gangsters who attacked you are from the Baler Gang. Their lair is two blocks away, and they 'mainly' run casinos and protection money. They have nothing to do with kidnapping and robbery."
"We found no traces of bewitchment or soul-eating at the scene, so what circumstances would cause a group of gangsters to suddenly attack a warlock?"
"But they most likely didn't expect that you can actually summon a blue dragon...Is that true?"
Michael still couldn't believe it.
"I can't say..." Annan shook his head, "It's not that I can't say it, but it must be kept secret."
Not even the contract itself can be revealed.
Michael guessed something and stopped asking.
In any case, if the gangster was instigated by the murderer of Levi's Reeves, the appearance of the blue dragon should temporarily scare them away from doing anything. But the bad news is that the murderer may be convinced that Annan is the Levi's.
They also began to believe it.
How else to explain that a boy who became a warlock two months ago was suddenly able to summon a blue dragon?
"But we can charge some interest from the Bale Gang first." Michael said.
Annan is not a person who holds grudges, but he almost died at the hands of gangsters and always wanted revenge: "But I'm just a new warlock..."
