People are forbidden by magic, just become mercenaries

Only the front half of the car was left, and the rear half of the car body was forcibly torn off, and the second half used to transport combatants rolled down in the middle of the road.

The "Alpha" and others who were originally gathered in it adjusted their bodies steadily in mid-air.

After ensuring the safety of the "suitcase", everyone landed firmly in place.

"Everyone is ready. The 'magician' is coming!"

Put the suitcase into the armor suit on the back, the original pure white hard armor suit looks like a wriggling slime, and integrates the forearm-long aluminum suitcase into the armor behind it.

Instead of checking to see if the driver ahead was dead, all members of the "Silver Cross" armed themselves with guns to guard against the attacker.

But, for a long time.

The attacker didn't show up.

As if they didn't exist, except for the members of the "Silver Cross" who were standing guard, they couldn't see anyone now.

"What happened? What happened?"

In a panic, he climbed out of the completely scrapped car body with difficulty.

The Anbe member who was the driver did not understand the current situation at all.

The instructions he heard should be to transport combat equipment to No.20 School District [-], but he was blown into the sky in a daze.

"Crack~"

Responding to his doubts were the muzzles of the "Silver Cross" members.

"Wait, wait! What are you doing?"

"'Wizard', too obvious."

The messy gunshots were covered up to the maximum extent under the action of the silencer.

Although it can still be heard, it cannot be conveyed to farther places on the cross-district bridge.

And knowing that the moment before being shot, the magician who took advantage of the chaos and pretended to be the driver knew that his spells would be seen through by a group of ordinary people who didn't understand magic.

In fact, he didn't know that under the armor suits of "Alpha" and others, the inside of the goggles had already been engraved with special spells by Sigurd. will be marked.

So just now, in the eyes of the "Silver Cross" members, the driver has always had a red mark reminding them that this guy is an enemy.

"It seems that the mercenary is already prepared?"

"Notify the others and withdraw from Academy City immediately."

"Eh? But boss, isn't it that we are here this time..."

"It's not necessary, this thing is not what we need."

Showing the contents on the animal skin in his hand, the man turned his head and looked at the "Silver Cross" who started to use the "Armor Suit" to move on foot, thinking about the No.20 Three School District.

(The strongest gold. Kind of mean...)

Chapter 240 Six: Brand New "Rune"

"It seems that you are not going well?"

"The vehicle was destroyed."

Handing over the suitcase intact to Sigurd, "Alpha" didn't care at all why there were two white girls who looked like primary school students and several men in black following Sigurd.

He truthfully conveyed the incident of being attacked on the way here.

"The body of the magician who was killed was not recovered according to your instructions, Mr. Sigurd. But we have just received a notice from the 'garbage recycling company'. The body seems to have been taken away."

"Normally, the corpses of those guys cannot be taken away by others. If you recover the corpses, you will be attacked by the other party immediately."

"Alpha" didn't ask who "those guys" were.

Quietly stood there waiting for Sigurd to confirm the contents of the suitcase, motionless like a statue.

"You can close the team. I will take care of the rest."

"learn."

Without showing any curiosity or other emotions, like a robot simply following orders, "Alpha" and other members of "Silver Cross" just left No. Airport.

"Soldiers from Academy City actually killed a magician?"

"Aztec magicians are good at 'human skin amulets'. Although they can interfere with human judgment, 'machinery' will not be affected."

"I seem to fully understand why the science and magic sides promulgated the 'science-magic treaty'. If you can choose 'equipment' in a targeted manner, those guys are enough to wipe out ordinary small magic associations, right?"

Magicians, after all, are humans with special powers.

If you get shot, you will die, and if you are not prepared, you will be blown to pieces by missiles.

Like an Aztec magician, if he is detected as "cross-dressing", a round of shooting can kill him.

"If the science side and the magic side go to war, the mid-to-low specification confrontation is the absolute advantage of the science side. The mid-to-high level confrontation depends on the 'intelligence' of both sides. In the top-level battle, the magic side is absolutely crushing, and the science side There is no right to resist."

It is very pertinent. After all, if the magicians of the middle and lower levels do not prepare in advance, most of the encounters will be sent to see the ancestors by a shuttle.

In mid-to-high-level fights, both sides have enough combat power, and whether they can defeat each other depends on their own "intelligence".

In top-level fights, magicians have the ability to move mountains and fill seas beyond ordinary people. In this level of competition, the science side has no advantage.

"The guy who was killed should be the magician from 'Return of the Winged One'?"

"Um......"

Looking professionally at the fragments of the stele in the suitcase, Sigurd answered Birdway's question perfunctorily.

"Why do I feel that these things seem to have a Nordic taste?"

"It's not like..."

Sigurd stood up and threw the stone into the suitcase from a long distance away.

Sighing, after getting the complete content, Birdway also saw the meaning of those words.

"These are 'rune texts'?"

"It does not belong to the 24 existing runes, nor is it different from the six brand new runes 'discovered' by Stiles. This is an unrecorded, brand new rune text."

In Norse mythology, in order to seek higher wisdom, Odin, the father of the gods, hung himself on a tree for nine days and nine nights, thinking about the mysteries of the universe.

When he came down from the world tree, he understood the secret of rune.

That is to say, the "rune text" was not invented by Odin, but existed in itself, and was only "discovered" by Odin.

Then it is not surprising that there will be a brand new "rune text".

"If the entire stele can be restored, we can probably use the existing 'runes' to roughly decipher what this thing expresses. But now..."

Looking at more than a hundred pieces of stones, large and small, these "original codes" that have lost the ability of "self-recovery" due to their severe damage.

Although the stones are protected from being completely weathered and disappeared, they can still be put together simply through the "exhaustive method" and by trial and error one by one.

Without staying too long, Sigurd directly contacted the Puritans in England, asking them to send someone to recover these steles that recorded the new "rune characters".

And Badway didn't object to anything, and simply complained a few words, "Is this the end?", and said angrily that he was going to go around Academy City, at least he had to eat a special dessert before leaving .

On the other hand, Leisa was looking through the stones in the suitcase curiously, and seemed to be very interested in these things.

Completely different from the original plan, "Return of the Winged Ones" seems to be a tentative move, and no further actions were taken after the members were killed.

The other two associations seem to have no further movement, and they have most likely given up.

After all, not only Sigurd himself has actually accepted the "stone", but also the members of "Scarlet Rizhao" have arrived. .

Even if they snatch it, can they really go back alive?

(First, the Egyptian magician tried to summon the gods with the assistance of the black dwarf. At the same time, he also tried to use the "Original Code" to obtain the knowledge of the forbidden book catalog...)

Sigurd frowned, the recent events seemed a little too weird.

(Afterwards, multiple associations showed an unusual interest in an incomplete "Runn Codex"...)

It seems that these things have little in common if they are to be related further.

But Sigurd just felt a little strange, after all, what happened during this period seemed a bit too intensive.

And considering the commonality of these magical associations, it can be said that there are or there are no.

In terms of commonality, the Egyptian magic association is exploring the existence of the "Kingdom of Heaven".

"Darkness to be awakened" has never stopped searching for various system magicians.

As for Aztec's "Return of the Winged Ones", he never stopped exploring the two volumes of the original scriptures on "Godhood of the Body".

The Greek association "Giant Ship of Heroes" also has the desire to "return to the golden age", and in a sense it is also exploring the road.

But to be different, the purposes and philosophies of these magical associations have no overlap at all.

The Egyptian magicians have never stopped exploring the "Kingdom of Heaven" since thousands of years ago. In the final analysis, they can only be said to be "persistence".

"Darkness to be Awakened" simply likes to study, any technique that utilizes and transforms other systems, although dishonest at present, does not have any special goals.

And "The Return of the Winged One" simply wants to become stronger and expand its influence, and there is no special reason.

As for the "Giant Ship of Heroes", they believe that the "Golden Age" is the most perfect, and the modern age is simply a garbage dump. They believe that human beings live happily with God without any worries, and obey God's will piously That's the right thing to do.

Although extreme and outrageous, it has nothing in common with the previous associations, and it can even be said to be "hostile".

(Egypt, Greece, Northern Europe, Aztec...what the hell is it for? Is it really just a coincidence that they got together during this time?)

Chapter 240 Seven: The Lost "Catalogue of Prohibited Books"

"Isn't it rare? It's not Stiyl who came to hand over to me?"

"Ah, that guy hasn't been in England lately."

Arriving at the airport in Academy City by plane, Kanzaki Kaori generally sorted out the documents at hand while checking the contents of the suitcase.

Kanzaki Kaori sighed, closed the suitcase and continued talking.

"Stiier has been busy dealing with 'that child' recently. After all, it has been confirmed that the child is at risk of being targeted, but now it is impossible to determine and bring her back immediately."

"I can't even think of a word that fits the current situation to describe the current situation. Let a child with [-] grimoires run around the world and lose them?"

Sigurd sighed, but didn't say much.
