"What?!"
An angry voice came from the room. It was a handsome blonde boy.
"Did you say that guy was killed?"
"The person who killed him is that bastard's brother, Ma Wen of the White River Valley? Isn't he a useless person? He doesn't even have a combat profession. "
In front of him stood a man in black with his body slightly bowed. The man said in a low voice, "Young Master White, according to our intelligence, Baron Ma Wen doesn't have a combat profession."
"Then how did he manage to kill my subordinates and two of my followers in front of everyone and before the law enforcement team could stop him?"
White looked very angry.
He had given that kid a small task, but he didn't even get rid of him. Instead, he lost his own life.
That little bastard was annoying. He didn't expect his brother to be so troublesome.
"I don't know. Maybe the intelligence was wrong. "
The man in black bowed again and apologized, "I hope you can understand, Young Master. The White River Valley is too small and remote. Our intelligence network didn't set up there."
"No matter how wrong it was, it can't be wrong like this!"
White took a deep breath and revealed a pondering expression. "This Marvin doesn't look like a simple character. At least he's much smarter than his brother. "
"To be able to kill a wizard apprentice and his followers, it proves that this guy's strength is at the top of the grade 1."
"He used the September Medal decisively. It seems that he wants to make things bigger …"
"I have to say that he's a smart guy. But in front of us, Unicorn, these little tricks can't help him. Instead, they will send him to hell! "
The man in black nodded.
"Now the Tower of Ashes is contacting the arbitrator of the Southern Wizard Alliance. I think they will go through a process."
"Going through the process is easy." White sneered and said, "Replace the arbitrator and the judge with our people."
"I'd like to see what else Baron Marvin has up his sleeves!"
"Yes! I'll do it immediately! "The man in black immediately retreated.
…
At the same time, in the side room of another dormitory in the Magog College.
The thick smell of magic potions permeated the air. The whole room was even a little foggy.
An incense burner was placed at the head of the bed. It was burning with a strange incense that had a calming effect.
Ma Wen walked in silently. Other than the unconscious Vigny, there was another person in the room.
It was a girl, about eleven or twelve years old. She was a little surprised to see Ma Wen come in.
"I am Vigny's brother, the lord of the White River Valley, Ma Wen."
He briefly introduced himself.
"Ah, hello." The girl showed a shy expression. "I am Lulu, Vigny's classmate."
Classmate?
It couldn't be that simple, right?
Ma Wen looked at the girl and the unconscious Vigny speechlessly. The nobles in Fernand's world matured early. Usually, they began to lust after forbidden fruits at the age of eleven or twelve. Vigny was only nine years old, yet he already had a girlfriend?
That was a little too fast.
However, the status of wizards was very high, so it was not difficult to find some women. Ma Wen could see that this girl named Lulu was probably a wizard apprentice with the potential to become an alchemist. However, her talent was not high, so it was very difficult for her to further develop. She was not bad looking, but not to the extent that she could attract high-level wizards.
She sat on the side of Vigny's bed, looking a little haggard.
"Miss Lulu has been taking care of young master Vigny since his illness broke out." The old butler's voice came at the right time.
Ma Wen nodded and said thank you.
However, he immediately changed the topic. "Miss Lulu, you must be tired these days. Since I am here, I will take care of my brother. You should go back and rest."
Lulu was stunned for a moment. She looked at Vigny with some reluctance, then nodded and left.
Only the old butler and Ma Wen were left in the room. The two looked at each other. The former seemed to be a little surprised by the change in Ma Wen.
It was a kind of spiritual transformation. Although Anna had already mentioned this matter to him in a letter, when Ma Wen really stood in front of him, he seemed to have an illusion.
The current Ma Wen was like his grandfather when he was young.
Wise, full of vitality, full of decisiveness.
This was a necessary quality for a good lord.
"Master Ma Wen …" The old butler whispered. "You don't have to worry too much. The teachers in the academy are very angry, and they are working very hard to find the culprit. "
"I believe they will find the answer soon."
Ma Wen did not speak, but silently looked at Vigny on the bed.
His young brother was covered with a thick blanket. His face was frighteningly pale, his cheeks were sunken, and his hair had begun to wither, like a withered tree.
"Huh?"
Ma Wen's eyebrows furrowed slightly.
He gently pulled the blanket away. Vigny's chest was cold, but his heart was still beating strongly.
"Every night in the middle of the night, he would be awakened by nightmares three times, and then he would vomit violently."
"The things he vomited out … are all dirty things."
The old butler explained. "Toads, poisonous snakes, and the like. I have already explained it to you in the letter. "
"Vigny's teacher said that it might be done by the Twin Serpent Sect."
Marvin calmly covered himself with the blanket and slowly shook his head. "It's not the Twin Serpents Sect."
"Ah?" The old butler was a little surprised.
"It is not done by the Twin Serpent Sect. Someone is imitating the tricks of the Twin Serpent Sect. "
A trace of coldness flashed in Ma Wen's eyes.
"This is not an ordinary curse, but a mixed curse."
"On the surface, it looks like the hibernation curse of the Twin Serpent Sect, but in fact, under the camouflage of hibernation, there is a curse that is constantly draining Vigny's life force."
"He is very weak now. I must immediately remove the source of the curse!"
Ma Wen clenched his fists, and his brain spun rapidly.
It was indeed not the method of the Twin Serpent Sect. This was just a cover. Someone was playing tricks behind the scenes.
And it must be someone from the academy.
Even someone around Vigny!
"Wait …"
Ma Wen suddenly raised his head.
He seemed to have guessed something!
…
Magog College, in a certain conference room.
"I think I have found the source of Vigny's curse."
A deep voice rang out, "We must punish the murderer severely."
"So what if you found it? The final qualifier will begin in a week. I am afraid your apprentice will not be able to continue participating, "another sharp voice said.
"So what?" The first voice said angrily. "Someone is openly framing my apprentice, openly cursing a student of Magog College, and everyone here is indifferent?"
Everyone was silent.
The last voice said, "Henzel, since it is your apprentice, you will suffer the greatest loss. You should do it."
"But that person should be a student of our affiliated academy. If she is willing …"
"If she is willing to hand over the antidote or remove the curse, I can spare her life," Henzel said decisively.
…
Knock knock knock! Knock knock knock!
Someone knocked on the door.
The old butler was a bit surprised.
Who would come to visit at this time?
Under Ma Wen's signal, he went to open the door.
The person was wearing black clothes and a black hat. He looked very old-fashioned, but also very dignified.
A peak grade 2 wizard.
Ma Wen instantly made a judgment. He didn't dare to use Scout. That would be an affront to a wizard and would likely anger the other party.
He used experience to judge.
"Sir Henzel?" The old butler was a bit surprised.
"This is?" Henzel also looked at Ma Wen strangely.
"I am Vigny's brother, the lord of the White River Valley, Ma Wen." Ma Wen introduced himself again.
"Hello. When Vigny entered the academy, we seemed to have met once. "
As if remembering something, Henzel's serious face revealed a trace of a smile. "Moreover, you are the first person in 300 years who dares to kill in front of the Magog College."
"Someone wants to frame my brother."
"I will make them pay the price."
Ma Wen's voice was very calm, but there was an unusual chill in it. Even a master like Henzel couldn't help but look at him again.
This young man … seemed to be a bit different from before. When he first heard that Ma Wen killed in front of the gate, he thought he was very reckless.
It didn't seem to be the case.
But that wasn't the main reason he came here.
Henzel said in a low voice, "I have already caught the murderer who framed Vigny."
"It's his little girlfriend, Lulu, right?" Ma Wen said casually.
"How do you know?" Henzel said hoarsely.
(Up to Sanjiang! Computer users remember to vote for Sanjiang at Qidian's Sanjiang channel. 500 points are enough. Tomorrow is Monday, so there will be a chapter update after midnight. Next week's goal is still the recommendation list. This week, we rushed up on Monday, but then we were slowly pushed down. We have been goalkeepers at 16 and 17. Taking advantage of Sanjiang, I hope to stabilize next week. Currently, the plot is in transition, and the pace is a bit slow. It will be very exciting next, and I hope everyone will continue to support me. In addition, speaking of small characters, I actually prepared to choose a small character several times, but then I found that … everyone's character cards are too detailed! Especially the background, if the character card is too detailed, I can't insert it, and it will break the original train of thought. So, if you really want to play a small character, the most convenient is a slightly simpler one ~ ~ ~)
