After leaving the "Betrayer's End" behind, Lucien and the Sage quickly left Morning Star's home and blended into the darkness to avoid being blocked by the Church.
In fact, the Inquisition, which had experienced the professor's behavior once, was no longer unfamiliar with it and was aware of it. Therefore, they suspected that the professor had deliberately appeared in the magic circle in order to expose the spies they had installed and repeat the Fire Wolf incident.
Even the Inquisition has planned to use several spies as bait to set up traps - the news of the headquarters of the Magic Council and the reappearance of the professor will spread to other magic circles through mercury, etc. Those circles also have spies, and they also pass similar information to Vigil
people.
However, the Inquisition did not expect that the professor could target Morning Star immediately, and took action decisively just half an hour after he secretly delivered the information. It was obvious that he had been monitoring him. On the other hand, the identity of the sage was exposed, and the clown's actions made it difficult for him to do so.
The person in charge of the tribunal believed that the target of the professor's trap was the clown and the night watchman he was chasing. Therefore, his focus shifted and he did not have time to set up the trap. He only arranged for two ordinary night watchmen to secretly protect and guard him. Lucien easily concealed it and shot him.
Kill the morning star.
Lucien and the Sage secretly made twists and turns in the darkness, passed through several blocks, and came to a secret hiding place arranged by the Sage a few years ago.
"Mr. Professor, I didn't expect that in addition to being good at astrology and elements, you are also very proficient in necromancy magic." The sage, who was really relieved until now, sighed. His body had not yet reached the level of a quasi-knight, and his tone was very serious after losing too much blood.
weak.
When he witnessed Lucien using the necromantic magic circle made from the human body to mix one-third of his own blood with the stumps and severed legs and other corpses collected in the black forest to create a body that was no different from a real person,
The sage was shocked from the bottom of his heart. This was completely touching the realm of the true God. As he got older, he became more and more fascinated by the mysterious magic, and became more determined to go to the Magic Council.
Lucien still pretended to have a hoarse voice and smiled slightly: "It is still far from being proficient. I only started to make up for the weakness in this area more than a year ago, but the council has made great progress in research on human body refinement. For example, I
The results of the cell memory used can fully exert the effect of your blood. Judging from the current magical effects of the church in similar aspects, it is absolutely impossible to tell whether it is a fake corpse, unless a cardinal asks the 'spirit',
Go back to the scene and wait for level nine or above divine spells to check."
After more than a year of research, coupled with a solid foundation in arcane and magic, Lucien, who is already a fourth-ring magician, is no worse than Hunter, who was refining human bodies in the past, in necromancy magic, and thanks to arcane and magic
With the advancement of magic, the creation of the human body is closer to reality.
"It's still far from being proficient? What about being truly proficient in necromancy?" Even though he was weak, the sage couldn't help but ask surprised questions. Then he thought of something: "Suddenly more than two years ago,
Felipe Canero, who rose from the bottom of the purification sequence to the 91st, is a necromancer, and when he rose in rank, he was only at the fifth level, and was later promoted to a high level. Mr. Professor, you
Is this the level of proficiency you are referring to?"
As the "former" Archon of Alto City Hall, Viscount Klein the Sage is qualified to understand the purification sequence in detail.
"I have to admit that he is very proficient in necromancy." No matter how tense his relationship with Felipe was, Lucien did not belittle him at will. He was indeed a rare genius in necromancy. And Felipe was already
High-level, even though many young magicians in the Magic Council compare themselves with him, he is still very aware of the current gap between the two.
The promotion of magic becomes more and more difficult the further you go, especially at several passes. When you reach the advanced level of the fifth ring, you already need the assistance of magic rituals. Without enough arcane and magic accumulation, the failure rate is extremely high.
Then, Lucien changed the subject: "Sage, I'm sorry to involve you in this matter without explaining it in detail, and whether the clown will really kill you, and whether the distance between the night watchman and him is enough for me to rescue you.
, are all unknown, which puts you in great danger. I am deeply sorry for this."
Because he was worried that the clown would ask for some detailed information after taking control, Lucien did not mention the trap to the sage at all, but only hinted that he would be in great danger tonight and that he would save him.
"It doesn't matter, Mr. Professor, I have always believed in your wisdom, and I want to escape from this dark and depressing life and embark on a new path in life. How can I not pay a price?" Since Lucien had hinted in advance, the sage
He nodded thoughtfully at that time, and after seeing the clown, he roughly understood what was going on, and took advantage of the situation to show off the arrogance and hypocrisy of a nobleman, so he was relatively open-minded about it, and then he laughed and said, "
Besides, I believe that Mr. Professor, you must have made other arrangements at that time, so that I would not really die."
Lucien nodded slightly, and Camille was indeed nearby at that time: "No matter what, it is a bad thing to put you in great danger. The items obtained from Morning Star will be left to you, Sage, as compensation.
Don't refuse, this is the principle of my life. Okay, you can rest for a while after taking the potion, and then leave Alto as soon as possible."
"Okay, Mr. Professor. I feel a lot more relaxed now." After the sage became an official magician, the pressure increased. The status of consul and viscount not only failed to bring him glory and enjoyment, but also made him
He felt unspeakable panic, and as he got older, he had long thought of leaving everything behind to find the secrets of magic. Anyway, there were already successors in the family, so this suspended animation helped him to escape in a sense.

…………
In Latasha Palace, Natasha, who looked gloomy and indifferent, symbolically hugged Archduke Violet, who came after hearing the news, and comforted him: "Father, don't worry about me, I will recover soon. Don't worry.
, have I experienced too many blows and hardships? I think this is the Lord’s test for me. My mother and the others will look at me lovingly in Heaven Mountain, so I will live well, live happily, and live for you.
.”
"Poor little Natasha, I believe in your tenacity, but don't hold yourself back too much." Grand Duke Violet touched her hair lovingly. This child must be very sad. He has forgotten that her mother is
Magician, how can the soul go to Heaven Mountain? But little Natasha is really pitiful. She just came out of her closed heart, and her only two relationships did not end well.
However, what comforts the Grand Duke is that at least his daughter's love affair with Lucien Evans shows that she doesn't just like girls. At most, she has never had the opportunity to fall in love with men before, so don't force her too much in the future, so as not to develop in the opposite direction.
.
"Father, please allow me to be quiet for a while tonight." Natasha raised her head and smiled "hard". She really felt uncomfortable. No one wanted to deceive their loved ones, but she was too deeply hurt in her last relationship.
, and so far, the feeling for women is better than that of men, so it is best to have a relatively long period of time to quiet and distinguish your heart.
Grand Duke Violet nodded and touched her hair again: "Natasha, I believe you can come out."
Watching Natasha return to the "War Gallery" with Camille and several guards, Grand Duke Violet's expression suddenly changed: "Won't women and men not like her anymore after she was hit?"
In the War Gallery, Camille sat quietly on the sofa, while Natasha vented her bad mood on the piano, and the passionate and tragic melody echoed repeatedly.
"This is the best "Pathétique" I've ever heard you play, but can you stop and talk about what happened in the villa? Did the clown and the night watchers discover anything?" A guard stood in the room without leaving the room.
Next to the piano, he teased Natasha in a very familiar tone, trying to make her feel better.
Natasha stopped her fingers, took a deep breath, and regained her composure: "Lucien, your puppet was refined well, and they found no problems."
This guard was Lucien in disguise. After bidding farewell to the sage, he quietly met up with Camille, and under the cover of her and Natasha, he sneaked into Latasha Palace and hid in this seemingly dangerous place.
"I'm very confident in the doll that uses a quarter of my blood. What I care about is your performance, Natasha. If you suddenly stop laughing when you are sad and saying 'love words', things will be completely messed up.
." Lucien understood that Natasha was in a bad mood because she deceived the Grand Duke, so he made a joke.
Natasha hummed twice: "Am I so unable to control myself? I think I could have acted in an opera at that time! But such a role is not suitable for me. I should be like this..."
Before she finished speaking, Natasha swayed and appeared directly in front of Lucien. Then she pressed her right hand on her chest, lowered her head slightly, and looked at Lucien's eyes from a very close distance. She said "affectionately" in a manly manner.
"Very authentic:
"Every time you see the moonlight, you will think of me."
Their eyes were staring and their breathing could be heard. For some reason, Lucien and Natasha, who were usually used to making similar jokes, felt a little uncomfortable after seeing each other's beautiful and deep pupils.
Natasha laughed dryly and stepped back. Lucien also took the opportunity to take a step to the side.
"By the way, Lucien, why didn't you let me kill the clown with one sword, instead of letting him run away with serious injuries and dying? Although I am confident that he won't live long, there is always the possibility of something unexpected happening." Perseverance in giving up on the clown
Natasha does have some admiration for her role in eliminating evil, but when faced with crazy people who do not follow the rules, admiration cannot change her stance. What if one day the clown kidnaps Joel and other ordinary people in order to eliminate evil? So, for the clown,
Natasha had a determined intention to kill. If Lucien hadn't repeatedly warned her, and she wasn't "angry" at the time, she wouldn't have been able to kill her even slightly with one sword.
Lucien smiled slightly mysteriously: "I'm waiting for him to appear."
"He?" Natasha asked doubtfully.
Lucien chuckled and said very vaguely: "Although I haven't met him this time, I think I can guess what he was thinking. This matter went smoothly thanks to his 'help'.
"
"Can't you reveal it?" Natasha had no intention of insisting on knowing other people's secrets.
Lucien shook his head: "It's better not to know, but I will tell you the result."
"Where did you know the result?" Natasha felt more and more that Lucien, who had returned from the Magic Council, had mysterious methods.
Lucien smiled and said nothing.
…………
After arranging for Lucien to hide in a vacant room in the War Gallery, Natasha leaned on the chair with a somewhat gloomy expression and looked at the silver moon outside the window.
Although he and Lucien are good friends, in this incident, the slight estrangement between a magician and a nobleman who believes in the true God was revealed without deceiving himself.
Camille, who didn't know when she left, opened the door and walked in slowly.
"Aunt Camille, is there any new information out there?" Natasha asked without turning her head.
Camille's serious face showed a bit of weirdness: "The professor appeared again and left behind the 'betrayer's ending', so the night watchmen judged that he was the great musician who killed, and then designed to frame the clown. Of course, the clown
Previous actions that violated the agreement between the church and the nobility should also be punished by death."
Startled, Natasha's expression softened. (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!)
