Chapter 418 The Spiral of Contradictions Emerges Suddenly
"This should be the owner of the Linglong Pavilion... right?"
There was a bit of uncertainty in Elsa's words. She really couldn't connect the elegant man holding the victory in the photo with the broken corpse kneeling on the ground.
His face was ferocious, and he seemed to be roaring something. The dark blood had dried up, and the putrid smell still lingered in the air in the basement. His skin was as dry as the bark of an old tree, and his eyes were filled with crazy blood. If it weren't for the three-stroke order on his body,
Damn it, she really couldn't recognize that this was the owner of the Linglong Pavilion.
With the passing of the Master, the three-stroke black Command Seal has turned into a mere decoration, and the powerful magic power inside can no longer be felt. Looking at it this way, Caster also suffered an accident, and may have withdrawn from the Holy Grail War and returned to the Seat of Heroes.
.
"Who exactly took care of the owner of the Linglong Pavilion and Caster?"
She murmured to herself, puzzled. Elsa glanced around subconsciously, with undisguised disgust on her face.
A dead apostle that had been made into a specimen was fixed on the wall. There was also a strange artificial life form baby in a petri dish. The experimental table was filled with thick magic books and parchments, filled with strange things.
Formulas and symbols, beakers and test tubes containing dark red liquid, and traces of experiments still remaining on the instruments.
"Elsa, look at this."
Archer came over and handed her a heavy notebook that he found on the table.
"This is……"
Elsa opened the note, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, and undisguised anger soon emerged.
The experimental notes record the entire process of the development of mutant Dead Apostles in detail. The high-spiritedness of the owner of the Linglong Pavilion can be seen between the lines. Although the research on Death Apostles is against the rules in the Clock Tower, it is also allowed in private. Many magic tricks
In pursuit of the origin, all teachers gave up their identity as humans and became immortal disciples.
The mutant Dead Apostles caused at least hundreds of casualties in Tokyo, and almost exposed the existence of the magic world. If such things were known to the Holy Church, the Linglongkan family would be forcibly deprived of the qualification to participate in the Holy Grail War.
[Fortunately, the head of the Linglong Pavilion died and did not cause more trouble. 】
She thought to herself that this should be something to be happy about, but she felt more and more uneasy. This was the intuition honed on the battlefield. She once saved one of her during an interview. Elsa believed in her
Feel.
Soon she noticed the teapot on the long wooden table. The tea in the teapot had cooled down and she couldn't feel any heat. The broken teacup was lying quietly on the ground, and the dried watermarks could be vaguely seen.
[Could it be that the owner of Linglong Pavilion was suddenly attacked while drinking tea?]
But there were no traces of the fight around, and Elsa's head was getting bigger. Although she liked Sherlock Holmes, it didn't mean that she liked being involved in such bizarre incidents.
"Let's get out of here first. Is there any other information? Archer."
She shook her head to expel this feeling from her brain.
"There is also a body in the room on the second floor."
………
Pushing open the door of this room on the second floor, what comes into view is an antique Nordic style table with an old-fashioned radio placed on it. The surrounding decoration is also different from other places in the mansion, with a touch of luxury.
A bit lively as a girl should be.
On the soft single bed, the black-haired girl was sleeping, just like a princess waiting to be awakened by the prince, but she could neither wait for the prince nor the day when she was awakened.
Elsa subconsciously clenched her fists. This girl looked to be no more than four or five years old. As expected, she should be the future heir of Linglongkan, the child prodigy known as "Genius" - Linglongkan Misaya.
She walked forward, lifted a corner of the quilt from the girl's body, and then placed it on the girl's neck.
After a brief silence, Elsa gently covered her with a quilt, as if she was afraid of waking the girl up. Her mother's glory appeared on her face after a long absence, but this glory looked so sad.
Archer remained silent and simply looked at her.
"let's go."
Elsa shook her head and walked towards the door of the room, "It is already certain that the corpse is the head of the Linglong Pavilion. If it wasn't him..."
She did not continue, but Archer still understood what she meant. For the magic family, an excellent heir is extremely important. If the head of the Linglong Pavilion is alive, whether he is the head of a famous magic family or a
Father, he will not sit back and watch his daughter being killed.
The moment Elsa stepped out of the room, a strange magic appeared.
The sleeping spell was stirred up, and the new barrier covered the Linglong Pavilion mansion. Archer decisively drew his bow and shot at the wall behind him. There was only one wall between the place and the outside. The arrows condensed with magic power exploded it, and from there
From the gap, you can see the lush black forest outside.
Although he didn't know what the spell was, at least he couldn't stay in the mansion. He grabbed Elsa's slim waist and jumped down from the second floor.
"wrong……"
The ground beneath my feet disappeared at some point, replaced by a deep darkness, like a lightless lake.
Even the great hero of Persia couldn't borrow power in mid-air, let alone with a person.
Amidst the anxiety and uneasiness, they fell into the darkness at their feet and soon felt the solid ground. What was completely different from what they imagined was that this was not water or something else. To be precise, it was more like mist, covering the ground.
It covers about ten centimeters.
The mist rose, obscuring the field of vision, making it impossible to see even one's hand. Elsa held Archer's hand tightly, keeping it in its original position, and did not move rashly.
A strong sense of dizziness came over her, almost making her unable to stand still. As the world was spinning, and after an unknown amount of time, the deep mist slowly dissipated, and light appeared here again.
The mist was vulnerable to this light, and was quickly torn apart and melted into it. The light became more and more dazzling, and even the concentration of magic power in the atmosphere increased a lot.
"What is this place?"
The ground beneath my feet was replaced by stone bricks at some point, and dazzling golden light filled every inch of the space. The style of the building also changed drastically, and it looked more like an ancient Egyptian building.
Archer suddenly tensed up his body. He felt an unparalleled sense of threat, just like the sun hanging in the sky, emitting its own light and heat wantonly. The enemy could only wail under this light and linger on.
, and was finally obliterated by this ruthless brilliance.
He turned around slowly, tightened the crimson bow in his hand, and looked deep into the hall, at the sun above the Amyrlin.
