The house of Esselit is on the mountainside of Ayr city. The houses in this city are very dense. Even if he is the captain of a cruiser, the house in the city is not too big. It was a three-story house with a small courtyard.
After Essett and Brudes left, Xiao Chen and his team of more than 20 people waited in this house.
The interior decoration style of the house in the western continent is biased towards metal and wood, which is very different from the stone and wood-based style in the eastern continent. Many furnitures are either made of steel structure with wooden boards as countertops or wooden frames with metal decoration.
Xiao Chen speculated that perhaps the mainland is rich in trees and rich in minerals. Industrial development improved smelting technology, so this style was formed.
Xiao Chen picked up a local newspaper from the coffee table in the living room. This newspaper named Ai'erchen was very similar to the early newspapers of another world. Some serious news squeezed in the upper part of the first page.
"Mayor Argurod visited the newly-built Anita Steelworks. The new factory will recruit 20 experienced old workers and 50 apprentices."
"The fire that occurred in the northern part of the city last night killed six people. It is reported that the rebel wizards launched an attack for the prison. The executive team of the referee has come to the city. Please report to the City Hall in a timely manner. "
"Later in the square in front of the city hall, the witch Beda, who used the power of the devil to kill five civilians, will be hanged."
Among the most important news, two are about witches. It seems that people who use "demon power" are not as rare as Captain Ballyvian said.
This witch will be hanged publicly, presumably of the most sinful type, and her associates are still causing trouble in the city and trying to rescue her.
Xiao Chen is very interested in these wizards. According to his guess, these people are actually some wild mages. In a world where magic is prohibited, what kind of state the wild mages naturally produce is an interesting topic. . In particular, most people on this continent are naturally resistant to magic. I do n’t know how these wild mages will exert their power.
When Xiao Chen found Huang Zheng, he was on the terrace of the house, observing the warship in the port. In addition to the Red Cloud, two other heavy cruisers are anchored in the port of Ayr City, as well as four or five smaller warships that can be called destroyers.
"Are you still observing those ships?" Xiao Chen asked.
Huang Zheng ’s hand rested on the railing, looking out to the distant sea and said,
Yeah, since I discovered that the western continent is a whole country, I have been wondering why they still have to work so hard to develop armaments. If so, the armor and firepower of these warships are too strong. "
"Maybe their hypothetical enemies are the" devil "of our eastern continent?" Xiao Chen asked.
"I have such speculations too, but such a warship does not look like it was designed for defense."
Xiao Chendao "Maybe the top leaders of this country are preparing for the expedition to the eastern continent?"
"This……"
auzw.com "I'm just guessing." Xiao Chen smiled and smiled.
He handed the newspaper to Huang Zheng and said, "Look at the news about witches and witches."
Huang Zheng scanned the news with a line of sight, and looked up and asked, "What do you want to do?"
"Witches and witches are actually another very important aspect of this continent. Before negotiating with those rulers, I would love to see what these people are like. Now give your Marines a mission. Search in secret In this city, if you can find these wizards who came to prison, send them to my side. I have to ask them some questions.
I have already sensed some unclear mental power fluctuations from afar, and you may be rewarded by looking in those directions. "
Huang Zheng immediately led his way away. In this magic-free city, it is very convenient for people with magic to do things secretly.
He sent two groups of teams, each consisting of a high-level warrior and a high-level mage. They disappeared into the body and sneaked into the city in the direction pointed out by Xiao Chen.
For these magicians who can detect spirits, as long as the wizards act, their mental power fluctuates, as if the lights were in the dark at night.
Less than half an hour later, the reconnaissance team composed of Crete and Katrina dragged a comatose back.
This is a pretty young man, wearing the clothes of a port cargo worker. He didn't have any wounds on him, and he was attacked by magic at first sight.
Katerina said,
We found this guy near the port. At that time, he was cheating some workers on the dock with some rough tricks and wanted to sneak into a warehouse to steal something. We dropped him and went to the warehouse. I took a look here, it was a warehouse where military supplies were placed, and there were many explosives stacked. I think he was supposed to steal those explosives and use them to blow up the cell. "
"Let me talk to him." Xiao Chen took Luo Ling and others to lead the young man into a lounge, and closed the room with magic. First searched all the things on the wizard, and then awakened him.
When the young man woke up suddenly, he found himself in a very unfamiliar room, sitting in a chair and standing across from him, several men and women.
He thought he was caught by the referee, and immediately wanted to flee. He saw that he pushed his hands forward without any rules, and there was a burst of sparks between the two hands, towards Xiao Chen and Luo in the shape of a fan Ling Juan. But the magic disappeared without being sprayed in front of Xiao Chen. The man who was turning around and escaping from the room was immediately kicked on the side by Roger, who was on the side, and could not afford to fall.
"Don't be excited, wizard." Xiao Chen looked down at him and said, "This is not a referee, and we are not executives. I brought you here, just want to ask you some questions."
The young wizard apparently did not expect that the other party would say this, and his face was full of distrust, "If you are not trying to catch me, why did you secretly attack me and tie me here?"
Xiao Chen did not answer his question, but only preached, "What is your name first?"
"Name? Those of us who have been hiding have long abandoned their names. They call me a crow, and you can call me by this name."
