268 The situation changes

Since living in the dormitory of the Inquisition with the little doll Nora, Lawrence has slowly recovered from the tense state of nerves caused by the constant assassination. Taking advantage of this opportunity to finally settle down,

He began to study the knowledge he had previously obtained from that stone tablet.

The knowledge recorded on the slate of the final inheritance treasure of a certain school in the Maury Empire last time is indeed the kind of top knowledge that directly points to the most basic knowledge of power, and the soul connection with Nora also allows him to obtain similar knowledge when studying these things.

With the addition of an external brain. So after living in the dormitory and studying quietly for three days, he finally successfully integrated the results of his previous scattered research.

Although he only had a preliminary understanding of what was recorded above, it also allowed Lawrence to successfully add two faint runes representing new magic next to the white shadow of Bai Ze in his mind.

These two runes that represent different magics look very similar. If we want to say they are different, we can only say that the rune that represents zero-level magic is slightly simpler than the rune that represents first-level magic. In fact, the rune represents one level of magic.

On, from a certain point of view, these two magics are the same magic.

Because Lawrence's current understanding of the knowledge on the stone tablet is not deep enough, the magic named Elemental Arrow by Lawrence is just a simple magic that causes damage to the target by condensing concentrated elemental power. It is just the same as those common ones.

The difference with the evocation magic is that the two magics Lawrence now masters can freely adjust the proportions of various elements in the magic structure when releasing it, so as to cause maximum damage to different targets.

However, because Lawrence's understanding of that knowledge was too superficial, the elemental arrows composed of the released magic elements could not explode like the fireball technique. Fortunately, he condensed the arrows and bullet-shaped arrows according to Nora's calculations.

Magic can maximize the range and accuracy of magic, which can be regarded as giving this magic enough lethality.

After dinner on the third day after arriving at the Inquisition, when Lawrence was practicing his newly invented magic with Nora in the underground training ground of the Inquisition, a sudden burst of ringing sounded throughout the underground space. In an instant, the room where Lawrence was

All the magic lights in the room went out at the same time, and the emergency lights on the wall lit up simultaneously.

"What happened?" Lawrence looked at the room that was suddenly filled with the red light of the emergency lights and looked confused, because no one had told him what to do in this situation before. And just now he was still recording.

Nora, who had new magic data, floated behind Lawrence as soon as the room changed, subconsciously filling up his visual blind spot.

"Attention to all units, attention to all units. The headquarters of the Tribunal will be on orange alert from now on. Please enter your respective combat positions." Soon, a voice spread throughout the room. Then the doors of all the rooms in the entire corridor opened at the same time.

Opening it, the members of the tribunal who were practicing just now walked out of the room quietly and quickly, and then walked down the corridor to the ground like a silent river.

"What happened?" Nora followed Lawrence and followed the flow of people to the ground and asked him close to him. This sudden situation made her a little confused, because everything was very normal when she had dinner just now, and

It doesn't look like a big crisis is about to break out.

"I also feel a little strange." Lawrence walked quickly to his room after coming out of the underground shooting range. In his opinion, an organization like the Inquisition should theoretically have excellent intelligence capabilities and should not be as sudden as now.

Enter the emergency state directly.

As soon as he returned to the dormitory, Lawrence took out his weapons and medical kit and prepared for battle. After all, if a battle really broke out at this time, everyone would definitely need to contribute their own strength.

Just a few minutes after getting ready, Yagoda, a new friend he had made after fighting a bloody battle with him, suddenly opened the door and walked in. He was first stunned by the heavily armed Lawrence, and then said quickly

"It's ready so soon? This is great. Come with me quickly."

After saying that, he walked in front and led Lawrence and the others towards the main building. While walking through the open space in the middle of the building, Lawrence saw that all the metal gates on the ground were open, and some staff and inquisitors were busy.

They lifted boxes one by one from these underground spaces.

There are also many people on the wall now, either checking weapons on the platform inside the wall, or setting up sandbags and barbed wire on top of the wall, giving the scene of an imminent war.

"What's going on?" Looking at the tense atmosphere inside the tribunal headquarters, Lawrence asked Yagoda who was leading the way, "Are there enemies about to attack? But this is the capital city of Vindobona, why?

There may be enemies."

"You are right, this is the capital, and theoretically there should be no enemies." Yagoda explained as he led Lawrence and the others into the main building of the trial, "But now the problem still happens here.

It’s because of the capital. If it weren’t for those guards, I don’t think it would have happened—”

Having said this, Yagoda closed his mouth, and then led Lawrence and the two of them into the small stairwell under the stairs of the main building, and then went down the cast iron stairs in the stairwell. Soon, the three

The individual walked along a brightly lit corridor and arrived at a medical room.

"I will trouble you to take charge of the field first aid work in a moment. Our chief medical officer is currently temporarily detained in the palace to take charge of the work there." Yagoda shrugged helplessly. "Originally, he went there this morning.

The palace reported what we discovered as the deputy director of the interrogation section under the trial court, but we didn’t expect that things would turn out like this.”

"Can you tell me what happened?" Nora asked curiously, "I just heard you say something happened to the guards in the city?"

"The current problem is indeed related to the Guards, but it is no longer just a problem of the Guards." Because he knew that Nora was a constructed life, Yagoda also answered the question about the little doll seriously.

."If you want to talk more carefully, this is also related to the prisoners we captured last time."

According to Yagoda, the colleagues in the interrogation room finally got some very valuable information from the prisoners this morning, including the identities of the people behind the scenes.

But the real trouble broke out after the tribunal arrested the instigators behind the scenes and followed the clues to try to get to the top.

"I can't believe that the person who issued the assassination order to you was actually a major of the Guards." At this point, Yagoda shook his head in disbelief. "And after arresting him and interrogating him, we discovered that the assassination

Many of your gunners are temporarily retired Guardsmen. In addition, we also found that there are more senior commanders of the Guards who seem to be planning some conspiracy."

"But because this is something that happened in the secular world, it also involves the issue of the military directly under His Majesty the Emperor. Therefore, as a tribunal, we must report this matter to His Majesty the Emperor. His Majesty the Emperor met with us and listened to our arguments.

After the report, on the advice of His Excellency the Prime Minister, I immediately ordered you to discuss the recent troubles in the Guards as an excuse to invite those suspicious officers into the palace."

"But this process did not go very smoothly. It may be because the news of our previous arrest of the Guards Major leaked out. Now the already nervous Guards began to gather in their camp, and at the same time,

Under the instigation of those officers, our people were prohibited from entering the camp, and the atmosphere in the city suddenly became tense."

"What's even more strange is that even though the situation has deteriorated so much, the field troops directly under the emperor only set up positions inside and outside the palace, and evacuated some personnel and materials into the palace. It seemed like they were allowing chaos to spread."

"This is indeed strange." Lawrence frowned after hearing this. The best thing to do in this situation is to quickly dispatch the army to maintain order and avoid the situation from deteriorating rapidly. The current approach of shrinking into the palace is really a bit too much.

It's not like what the wise old emperor did.
