Volume 9: Vampires and Dungeons Chapter 22: The Black Tower Murder Case (Part 1)
Mortals are not worth mentioning in the eyes of mysticism, because when a mortal's spirit reaches a certain limit, he will naturally awaken his magic power and become a member of the mystic. Even this kind of naturally awakened ability person is a very high-ranking existence in the mystic.
The reason why the mysterious was amazed at the mortal was not because of his great achievements, but because of the fact that he had made such great achievements but had not awakened until now. However, such mortals would often hold their heads high and step into the top position. Therefore, the mortals and the mysterious were never isolated from each other, and the degree of their close connection was beyond the imagination of outsiders.
After all, many areas have already entered the magical society in an organized manner, but authentic tourist areas like the Black Tower are a bit rare.
As the only dark fortress city that has not been burned to ashes under the Holy Light, the secrets and so-called darkness contained here far exceed everyone's imagination. However, all of this is for the better service of mystery.
So, as the top source, Li Lin doesn't care what happened here, or what happened in the past. As a referee, you can just watch the show. If you are curious, you can investigate it yourself. Li Lin doesn't believe that the people here dare to rebel and directly attack the university's teaching assistants. Aren't you afraid that the university that protects its own children will directly send dozens of associate professors to beat this place into an elemental soup?
The city defense system of the Dark Ages is not even , so Li Lin is very clear about his position and looks forward to what will happen next.
The guy who Li Lin regarded as the protagonist would definitely not sit idly by and wait for death.
Of course, the most important thing is confidence. Li Lin doesn't believe that Les Miserables can block him. First, the game alludes to politics and then deliberately blocks the character's progress. Can your company open? Do you really think that A-level authority is shit? Li Lin is now playing the game with peace of mind and endless joy.
And as expected, after a few days of reading and searching, he also got a lot of clues. The Misty Family did not stop him from going out. In the vast city of Black Tower, Li Lin took Sally to travel around and see the local characteristics and the warlock performances left over from the old days. Those strange fantasies born out of fear really brought them a lot of fun.
The analysis of the Misty Family also yielded a lot of results in the Black Tower, such as a little story about the Misty Family. They moved to the Black Tower a long time ago, even before the Holy Light Sect purified the world. In that crazy and desperate era, they were one of the managers of the Black Tower. There were more records and legends about these crazy and terrifying families than Li Lin could imagine. He even suspected that there was a complete chain of tasks in this family, not just the few random tasks he found at the university.
In other words, what is contained here is likely to be the main storyline.
Well, for the mortal-level main storyline, Li Lin's level is a bit over the standard. Although this kind of quest chain will always involve gods, demigods, and all kinds of messy things in the end. But Sally herself is a god, Li Lin's salary has been paid, and the virtual godhood index has officially exceeded ten, neither of them is a good person. What are you going to do if you throw the two bosses into the early storyline? Of course, it's the protagonist who works hard?
What's more, this time there is a protagonist in the plot. The young man who exploded the virtue is absolutely awesome. Li Lin is very confident. After all, the virtue looks similar to what he made in the Black Forest at the beginning. It is not an ordinary thing.
So now Li Lin and Sally's order of action is to eat and drink every day, and then wait quietly for the development of the situation.
As expected, on the third day that Li Lin and Sally spent in the mansion, a turning point came. The protagonist, with a gloomy look on his face, hurried from outside to the guest room mansion and knocked respectfully on the door.
It seemed that even after a few days, this mysterious family had trained their heir to be decent. But this decent heir did not consider his family. After Li Lin opened the door, he looked around and hid in with a sneaky look. He rubbed his fingers and released a series of clumsy traces of magic, covering up the surrounding sounds.
Li Lin did not speak, but quietly watched the performance of this guy who might be the protagonist of the plot. After a series of arrangements, the tortured man finally showed a relieved expression after watching him pull out a few books and flowers from the room and throw them outside. Looking at Li Lin who still did not give up his duties in the dangerous situation and chose to guard here and intimidate his family members (the fat man thought so himself), it was obvious that what he found could only be told to this person he trusted.
"Mr. Li Lin..."
He changed into a dark brown robe, and his fat body became thin and upright after these few days of uncertainty. The young man, who had become an ordinary man, showed a strange expression . He looked at Li Lin who was holding a book and whispered:
"Butler...he's dead."
"……?"
"I don't know what happened. I heard from the servants that the butler committed suicide in the kitchen... The reason is unknown. There was no blood or wounds on his body, and there was no mental feeling. He simply broke his spine with his hands, and then died in the kitchen. I have no idea what happened..."
"Wait a minute, you broke your spine? You did that yourself?"
Why does this description sound so familiar to me...
Li Lin thought of a possibility in the blink of an eye, and looked at the protagonist of the story with some horror.
The protagonist obviously also thought about the sensitivity of his own magical properties. He waved his hands in shock, indicating that he did not do it at all.
"I swear to God, I definitely didn't do it, and I don't have the ability to kill the butler... You don't know, his condition is actually very strange. I suspect he may not be a human at all. I have seen this in the past few days, but he still died..."
This is a serious matter. I have asked the servants to block the news. Now the only person I can trust is you, Mr. Li Lin.
The fat man, no, now it should be said that the young man in the long robe now said sincerely.
