Chapter 33

Feeling the texture of the sword handle in his hand and the weight lighter than all his weapons in the past, Loren began to try to connect it with his spiritual palace.

This is not difficult, especially for him who has taken the course of spell learning. Knowing how to use this kind of prop is a compulsory course. After all, all high-level magic spells need to use magic wands - although he hasn't got his own magic wand yet.

"May the void be with you."

Whispering the original joking spell, the originally empty spiritual palace seemed to be "activated". For a moment, Loren felt that his consciousness was forcibly extended, and the cold alchemy in his hand seemed to have his own life and emotion, and was connected with himself by some force.

The rune on the silver plated blade exudes a light blue light spot - just for a moment, the light light spot instantly tears the surrounding air and condenses into a gray blue "blade" with a length of about one meter, emitting a crystal quiet and elegant luster.

But even if he held it still, Loren could clearly feel the power of the sword - it was in a mess, exploding and colliding all the time, and wanted to tear everything around into pieces!

Just shocked for a moment, with a little expectation, Loren cleaved the "lightsaber" to the stake in front of him. At the same time of touching, the originally calm gray blue blade suddenly became extremely restless. Without hesitation, his right hand continued to wave down and split the stake in two.

No, the word "chop" was a complete mistake... Looking at the half stump on the ground that was almost broken into a pile of garbage, Loren couldn't help thinking of it. The jagged cross-section is like being bitten off by some kind of beast.

In any case, it is indeed a very special weapon - unlike a forged Knight's sword or any pointed spear, it is not sharp or strong. Even if it is touched, it may not be able to penetrate the leather armor.

But if used properly, this "sword" can tear any armor to pieces in a moment.

If there is any deficiency, it is that the maintenance time is too short. With Loren's current mental strength, it is not enough to turn it into an iron cutting "artifact" in an instant. For a few seconds, it can only become a backup means rather than a weapon for confrontation with the enemy.

"Toys."

Aware of the sound behind him, Loren immediately turned respectfully and bowed to the black wizard who came to him, with his hands behind his back.

"Mentor Dalton."

"As a wizard, what you should pay attention to is the operation principle of this alchemy product." Dalton seemed not to hear what he said: "magic is never the best means to kill, at least not the most efficient."

"But they are all one of the means to solve the problem, just the difference between ways and methods." with a humble smile on his lips, Loren didn't mean to give in much: "do you have anything to tell?"

Dalton Kande didn't seem to have any entanglement, but glanced at him coldly: "do you remember the ancient wood town?"

Lauren nodded, and an inexplicable unknown came to his mind. Dalton couldn't have mentioned it for no reason.

"Father Anthony is dead." Dalton said this sentence calmly, but he still could see that he was in a bad mood: "two days ago, he died in church and was bitten by a ghoul."

Loren frowned and clenched his right fist.

"But Draco is dead, and his Ghoul can't be alive." Loren's tone was somewhat stunned: "I cremated his body myself!"

"So this time it won't be him, but someone else." Dalton looked equally bad: "and in this way, the college will be dangerous, and the church will not let us go."

Of course, Loren can understand Dalton's meaning - before, he tried to cover up the truth as much as possible to make the matter in Gumu town look like an accident and fool the priest. But the same thing happened twice, and after dealing with it by themselves, people without brains will not regard it as an accident.

More importantly, even if it is really an accident and a priest of a church is killed, the Holy Cross Church will certainly not sit idly by. Vimpal college is responsible for handling the incident, and natural responsibility is also the responsibility of the college.

Even if it had nothing to do with the college, it would be an excellent excuse for a group of churches that had planned to destroy the college.

"I need you to go to Gumu town again tomorrow and make a thorough investigation." Dalton stopped. "Besides, it may be a trap, so caution comes first."

"Although it's just speculation, I suspect someone wants to frame the College - since you've seen Draco, it should be clear that not all the Wizards here agree with our policy."

This is obvious. Although vimpal college has won its legal status in the Duke's territory for itself, it also has to undertake corresponding obligations. In the eyes of some wandering wizards, it is probably no different from the running dogs of the church and the nobility.

And the killing of a priest in the church by the other party also proves how confident they are. I'm afraid it's not enough just to find out what happened in Gumu town. People who dare to do such things will never be just wandering wizards who hide all day and hide their identity.

"Since the church has not found any problems now, we still have time. I don't expect you to find anything in Gumu Town, but if there is any clue..."

Before Dalton had finished, he suddenly turned his eyes to the gate of the college and walked quickly. Lauren, who was more or less aware, followed him closely.

Before reaching the North Tower, Loren could vaguely hear something from a distance. When the two men came to the wall of the college castle, they saw a team of cavalry and carriages coming this way from the direction of the town.

At the front of the team was a heavily armed Knight, with the flag of the golden cross on a red background flying in the wind.

"The Holy Cross Church, it seems that they have also got the news." Dalton kand's expression is a little stiff, and it is obvious that things have exceeded his expectation: "we are in trouble."

Lauren nodded subconsciously - the other party came here with such a great deal of publicity, obviously to ask the teacher for punishment.

"In the name of the Holy Cross, open the door!"

The knight holding the flag rushed to the gate of vimpar castle and shouted without any politeness: "we are the messenger of the bishop, come to convey the order of bishop Fabian!"

"I'll report it to Dean Peter." Dalton kand, standing on the wall, replied humbly: "please wait a moment."

"It seems that things still have a turn for the better." almost as soon as he turned around, Dalton whispered to Loren behind him: "Fabian didn't come by himself to prove that he didn't want to do things, leaving us room."

Or he has no absolute evidence and certainty to expel vimpal College from the Duke... Loren guessed in the bottom of his heart. I'm afraid the other party wants to use father Anthony's death to pour sewage on the college.

But Draco, disguised as a priest, gave Loren some speculation. Maybe there are other wizards hidden in the church? Or is it simply the church people shouting to catch thieves?

No matter which one it is, this event is a great excuse, but the other party is not very sure. It is even possible that this is only the first step of the other party. The next step is

"Don't guess until you know the truth." Dalton suddenly stopped with his back to the front and said to Loren behind him, "keep calm and don't forget your identity - you're a wizard. You should be rational and calm at all times."

Lauren's expression was a little surprised.

But then he took a long breath and raised his usual formulaic smile again.

"Yes, sir."
