the last magic noble

Chapter 39 The Evil Mage Everywhere
Laura and I were taken aback by the news of Thork Olvia's death.

I hurriedly asked, "What's going on?"

The clerk said sadly: "After the conversation with the two of you yesterday, after a while, I heard a voice coming from his study. I need to arrange for Lord Sauk to rest according to the usual practice, but he has been writing behind the desk. What, let me go to rest first, this morning, when I went again, I found that he was dead, and I found something on his desk, so I can only give it to you two."

After finishing speaking, the clerk took out a letter. There were blood stains on the cover, which seemed to be from last night.

Led by the clerk, Laura and I went to the inner room behind the lord's hall, opened the envelope, and the letter read:

"Dear Miss Laura Hurley, Mr. Hummer Collinan, I'm sorry I can only say goodbye to you in a letter. What happened tonight is not something you can solve now. I hope you can protect yourself, evil mage Their strength is far above yours, and they act insidiously, and their methods are cruel beyond your imagination. Hummer, please allow me to call you that, I am sorry that I cannot help you find your lost things, but I already have After getting some clues, I will give you the two books and notes I read with you yesterday in the study. There are some of my whimsical ideas in them, and I hope they can be useful. In addition, please inform the clerk that I have sent The lord position of Mount Olvia will be axed. In the future, Mount Olvia will no longer be a fiefdom of the kingdom, but just an ordinary manor. Please ask him to take care of it. He will agree to your every request, and the three of you will jointly own it. Make good use of this piece of property. Finally, I hope you can grow up safely, and the Olvia family blesses you. --Sock Olvia"

After reading the letter, Laura was already sobbing non-stop. After I handed the letter to the clerk, the clerk nodded with tears in his eyes.Then, the clerk summoned the nobles and announced the decision on the future of Mount Olvia.Most of the nobles were protected by the barren magician group, so there was no objection. After a very small number of nobles made a fuss, they decided to leave Mount Olvia and live in other parts of the kingdom.

After the arrangements were made, the clerk ordered the guards to be on high alert.Then he took us to the study room, which was untouched, and Sok Olvia was reclining on the large chair with a peaceful expression, as if he had fallen asleep.

Laura finally couldn't help crying softly. I held back the pain and bowed deeply to Sok Olvia. After the clerk helped Laura sit down, he said to me: "Mr. Hemmer , This study has not been moved at all. I think something is wrong, so I am waiting for you to come and check. In addition, I have sent a search team to search Richards. The mountain has been tightly sealed. I believe there should be news soon. "

"Thank you. I think you should arrange for Miss Laura to go back first. I need to check this study as soon as possible. Also, please arrange for someone to guard Jonathan's body and keep the dungeon tightly sealed. I will check it later."

After the clerk agreed, he immediately took Laura away and went to make arrangements.I slowly checked in the study room. The fatal wound on Suoke's body should be a huge wound that was punctured in the chest, and the edge was covered with blood. After being penetrated by the sharp weapon, he lost blood and died, and wrote the letter before he died.

This wound, I recognized at a glance, should be caused by the wind knife, and it was able to seriously injure the powerful Sok Olvia to death, and they were the only ones, the evil mage army.

I closed my eyes and sensed it. The flow of elements in the study was orderly. Only a little gathering and disturbance of wind elements remained in Suoke's wound. It seems that my uncle died under the same spell.

Thok's suicide note told me that he already had a clue about how to get me back my control over the elements, but what exactly is it.

By the way, I rummaged through the books he gave us, and finally found the two books we read last night, a notebook and two cowhide scrolls. These things were simply wrapped in a piece of silk Parry, there is also a little blood on the silk handkerchief.It seems that these books and letters were sorted out in a hurry by Sock Olvia after his injury.

I checked the rest of the study and found nothing suspicious.After exiting the study, I rushed to the dungeon. Inside the dungeon, the corpses of the guards were lying on the ground in disorder. They basically had a cut on their necks. They were killed with one blow. The key was gone. The murderer probably took it away and opened the dungeon door. .

Jonathan was still reclining in the dungeon, his chest pierced by a metal rod, hanging on the wall like a pile of rotten meat, his eyes wide open.It seems that the evil mage and his minions did not want to take Jonathan in, only Richards.Being seduced by Richards and going astray, and now dying alone in prison, it can only be said to be the punishment of God.

After I checked a few scenes, I returned to the lord's hall. Laura and the clerk had been waiting in the hall for a long time.After I briefed you about the inspection, the clerk said palely: "Mr. Hummer, Miss Laura, I don't know if I should say something."

"It's okay, please tell me."

"Actually, the Evil Mage Legion came to Olvia Mountain several times many years ago. The first time was to persuade Lord Sauk to cooperate. The next two or three times, they tried to attack Olvia Mountain, but they were led by Lord Sauk. Now this time, could it be that they took advantage of the internal strife in Olvia Mountain and came to profit?" When the clerk said this, his face was pale, perhaps, those few attacks really gave He brings no small shadow.

I thought for a while, then shook my head and said, "If I said that I wanted to take advantage of the opportunity a few times before, it must not be this time."

"why?"

"Because I checked Sock Olvia's wounds and found that he was seriously injured by wind elemental magic, but Sock Olvia is not an easy person. Even if he is old, he can still seriously injure him head-on. There are not many people, let alone kill him. And so many research materials in the study are intact, I think, the battle must not have happened in the study, it should be in other open places, and it is far away from Mount Olvia An open place. Otherwise, there will be huge movements. I think the purpose of the evil mage army should be to rescue Richards, and then was discovered by Sauk Olvia. They can only escape with Richards, Sauk Olvia chased them to a distance, was seriously injured after a fierce battle, and came back to write that letter, I think, when you last saw him write something, he was already seriously injured and died.” My speculative thoughts Although there is no supporting evidence, it is the only reasonable explanation at present.

After discussing with me, the clerk decided to arrange the funeral of Sok Olvia and others first, because he is a person who does not understand magic, and the barren magician group will be handed over to Laura and me.

Although the news of the attack on Olvia Mountain is blocked, rumors and rumors continue. At this time, the safety and stability of Olvia Mountain must be ensured first. To do this, the barren magician group must be stabilized .

After discussing with me, Laura decided to take over the burden for the time being, but an in-depth investigation must be conducted on the evil mage, and the first step is to take a good look at the books left by Sok Olvia, maybe I can Find answers in books.
