Versatile Mage: Thunderstorm
Chapter 205: Abnormal Mage, News of the Missing Person
“what?”
Carly’s smile froze for a moment, and then, with the curiosity that ordinary people have, she moved closer to Li Yu and asked in a low voice:
“Are you hunters or…”
“The Tribunal?”
“Miss Carly, you’re joking. If we were the Inquisition, would we be able to state our purpose so blatantly?”
Li Yu shook his head and smiled.
“Too.”
Carly nodded in agreement. The trial would arrest people, and when they revealed their identities in front of others, it was basically the end of the net.
“Who are you going to arrest?”
Li Yu did not answer, but smiled mysteriously.
“Secret.”
Carly was also very sensible and stopped asking questions, and just said:
“If you need any help, please contact us.”
“Our master would not want any lawless elements to disturb the peace of the manor.”
“Thank you Miss Carly.”
Li Yu thanked him.
“Then I’ll go down first. If you have any requests, you can find the waiters wearing red collars.”
After Carly left, Li Yu turned his gaze to Ding Yumian, who had been silent just now.
“Is there something wrong with her?”
Ding Yumian shook his head.
“I don’t know. Although she was flustered for a moment, it is normal. I can’t tell whether she is guilty or not.”
After all, no one would take it calmly if they heard that a guest came to a private manor with the purpose of arresting someone. Moreover, it would be abnormal for a private manor that specializes in receiving dignitaries to not have some things that are inconvenient to show to others.
“But you should have discovered that this Kali is a mage, and she is hiding very obscurely. Ordinary people may not be able to discover her.”
But obviously, this ordinary person does not include Ding Yumian, who has stepped half a foot into the seventh realm of spiritual realm, and Li Yu, who is in the upper sixth realm.
“But this doesn’t prove anything. There are too many mages who hide their strength and pretend to be ordinary people. Considering Carly’s status and the specifications of this private manor, it’s not surprising that she has some cultivation.”
“So should we go outside and walk around more to let them know we’re here?”
Li Yu, who used the power of space to block out the sound, said to Ding Yumian.
“Let’s go. After all, we are tourists, so we have to play our roles well.”
Li Yu and Ding Yumian stood up.
“There are many foreign trade companies on this island. Let’s go and take a look.”
On the table, two cups of brewed black tea were lying quietly.
However, before leaving the town, Li Yu and Ding Yumian, who had only walked around the town, both frowned.
“Am I feeling wrong? Why is the density of mages around here a bit high?”
Li Yu looked at Ding Yumian beside him in confusion. The latter nodded and said with a slightly serious expression:
“Your feeling is correct. There are indeed too many mages here. Moreover, they have all suppressed their magical fluctuations and disguised themselves as ordinary tourists.”
After all, mages are only a minority in this world, and the probability of awakening is only one in a dozen. The proportion of mages in the population structure is basically the same as the awakening probability, or even lower.
Perhaps in some prosperous or special places the ratio of mages may be higher or lower, but the ratio of mages to ordinary people around us is almost close to one to two.
This town is neither a government office nor a military stronghold, nor is it the headquarters of a magic organization. Where do so many wizards come from?
“They’re coming?”
Li Yu was alert to the tourists around him with a serious look in his eyes. There were hundreds of mages passing by him. If it was really the Black Church, there might really be a big battle today.
However, upon closer inspection, Li Yu’s eyes showed a hint of excitement in addition to vigilance. After all, with so many mages, they should be able to have a good fight.
But Ding Yumian quickly poured a bucket of cold water on Li Yu’s rising blood.
“This group of people is not them. If it were them, we wouldn’t need to come. The Inquisition would have dispatched them.”
Ding Yumian probed the surrounding space with his mind, and finally revealed a strange smile.
“We are so lucky.”
“What?”……
“what?”
Ancient capital, Bell Tower Magic Association.
Several foreigners in desert attire were protesting to Han Ji, the president of the Bell Tower Magic Association:
“We protest and we want to file a complaint with the Five Continents Magic Association! Your people concealed information and deliberately sent our students to their deaths!”
“We protest!”
“…”
Han Ji frowned and looked at the translator who was smiling bitterly. The translator said in embarrassment:
“President, this is all the useful information I have. Believe me, you won’t want to hear the rest. It’s all swear words.”
“And…the curses were quite filthy.”
It was so dirty that it was unbearable for him, a translator who was used to big scenes. At this time, the advantage of others not being able to understand it became apparent, and he was the only one who suffered.
But if he had a choice, Han Ji would rather listen to the other party scolding him, even if it meant losing his family tree, than to cause such a thing.
These foreigners who were cursing were none other than the Egyptian team’s government mentors. Two days ago, the Hunter Alliance suddenly noticed a huge terrain change on the Egyptian team’s training route. A mountain over a hundred meters high disappeared without a trace overnight, and the Egyptian team’s trainees suddenly lost contact. Everyone realized that something was wrong.
Encountering this kind of thing, the various departments in the ancient capital that had just walked on the line between life and death were scared half to death. With such a big commotion, could it be that the ancient king was preparing to bring the undead out of the mountain?
Putting aside the safety of the Egyptian national team, the ancient king’s emergence has put the ancient capital in direct danger. All of a sudden, all major forces entered a state of combat readiness, and the ancient capital even made plans to evacuate the people.
After waiting for two days in fear, I found that everything was unusually calm, especially the original site of the hill, as if it had never existed before.
Before Han Ji could calm down for a while, this group of foreigners came again, demanding that the ancient capital send out mages to rescue their students. Originally, they had planned to come a long time ago, but at that time, the news of the ancient king’s comeback was spreading like wildfire, so they were persuaded by others to stop. Now that the incident has calmed down, they naturally couldn’t help but come.
When the other party stopped scolding because he was tired, Han Ji sighed and explained:
“Mr. Hassan, please believe us. We definitely did not intentionally put your country’s students in danger.”
“We didn’t want this accident to happen…”
Han Ji was interrupted by the furious Hassan just as he was about to finish his words.
“I don’t care!”
“Our students encountered an accident during the mission you provided. The intelligence was wrong. You must be responsible for sending mages to rescue them.”
Hassan’s anger was not just pretextual. He was also very panicked. He was in charge of the Egyptian national team. The death of one or two people was not a big deal, and the country could tolerate such a loss.
But during the training process, his entire army was wiped out, including even Sind, a magic research genius, and Mios, a direct descendant of the royal family. If he really couldn’t save them, he would forget about returning home.
What’s more, there is currently no information showing that it was a problem with the Egyptian National Team itself, but rather that the ancient capital’s intelligence was inaccurate and their National Team was cheated.
After all, a mountain suddenly disappeared, who would have thought that?
In short, any problems that arise in the ancient capital must be resolved by the other party.
“We are searching for the whereabouts of your students, but there is no news at all.”
Han Ji comforted:
“Please rest assured. I have already applied to dispatch a Space Master and several Undead Masters to participate in the investigation. I believe that your country’s students are blessed with good fortune and will be fine.”
“No, you must act quickly.”
Hassan refused to give in.
“Send out experienced mages to conduct a comprehensive search. The rescue cannot be delayed.”
Han Ji frowned. It was impossible to conduct a carpet search with a large number of people. This would be like sending food to the undead. Moreover, once the noise got out of hand and the ancient king was displeased, the ancient capital would be destroyed. This kind of thing could only be done slowly.
But it is obvious that Hassan cannot accept it. As time goes by, the chances of survival for the Egyptian national team will become increasingly slim.
Just when the two sides were in a stalemate, there was a burst of excited shouting outside the Magic Association.
“President, President…”
When the man came closer, Han Ji asked hurriedly:
“how’s it going?”
Not only Han Ji, but also the Egyptian instructor was listening attentively. He said breathlessly:
“Found it! Found the person!” (End of this chapter)
