Greetings, Mister Principal - Chapter 128
Letting out a sigh, Sullivan looked at the crowd coming and going outside the station indifferently.
‘Come to think of it, this should be the second time I left the Rainbow Tower this year.’ Sullivan thought, and he looked at the address in his hand again.
“Mr. Sullivan, we have been waiting for you for a while.”
As soon as he walked out of the station, a few men in long robes greeted him with a smile on their faces. The people that came in and out of the station walked around them, not daring to disturb these mages. They must be the person in charge of the local Magic Association. If it was normal time, the local Magic Association would definitely welcome the arrival of the fifth-ring mage with great fanfare, but this time, Sullivan had told them in advance to keep quiet about his arrival.
“I’m traveling for personal reasons this time, so it doesn’t have to be this troublesome.”
Sullivan whispered, and he didn’t even ask the other person’s name.
“Is the information I want ready?”
“Yes, yes, we’ve already prepared it a long time ago, but…” The headed mage looked troubled and hesitated.
“If you have something to say, just say it!”
Sullivan scolded. He hated people who beat around the bush the most. People in the Rainbow Tower would not do anything like this. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
“Sir, there was a vicious incident in the town of Sur two days ago. There are no survivors yet…”
“What!?”
Sullivan’s eyes widened in shock when he heard the other party’s words.
“It’s like this…”
The person in charge of the Magic Association walked along and told Sullivan the story.
In the beginning, some merchants who had been doing business with the people from the town of Sur noticed that they hadn’t received any products from the town of Sur for a while, so they ran to the town of Sur to check the situation.
Outsiders were not welcome in the town of Sur, and people outside were unwilling to come here, so when these merchants came to the town of Sur, they finally realized that something really had happened.
The original picturesque town had been burned by a fire, and among the dark ruins, the corpses that had turned into coke were scattered. This fire should have been burning for several days. It gradually extinguished until there was nothing to burn.
Originally, the merchants thought it was an accident, but soon, they found some unburnt corpses near the well. These corpses had serious wounds caused by blunt or sharp weapons, and it was obvious that those were fatal wounds.
Then the death of the town people of Sur became very mysterious. This was obviously a murder case.
But the mystery didn’t last long, and the sheriff quickly found the murderer.
In the wilderness about a dozen miles east of the town of Sur, there were a few young people and the corpses of the horses they were riding on.
They were lying on the wilted grass, without any fatal wounds, only their skin showed varying degrees of ulceration.
When the sheriff approached the scene of the crime, he felt a strong release of energy, so he immediately sealed off the scene.
After comparing the list of people in the town of Sur, the sheriff found that all the townspeople in the town had been killed and no one had survived.
These were the things that just happened yesterday. So Sullivan’s arrival made the local Magic Association feel that they finally found a savior.
“Energy release?”
Sullivan frowned slightly. Could it be any magic item that Kailavin made?
“By the way, what about Kailavin Napishtim, he also died in the accident?”
“No, actually, Kailavin Napishtim died before the accident. We found the only building that hasn’t been burnt down outside the town of Sur. He and his wife’s graves were found near that tower.”
The mage replied, not daring to look at Sullivan’s expression. Although he was the head of the Magic Association of a city, he was only a third-ring mage after all. Only after he realized that he no longer had any hope to advance to the next level did he finally come out of the Rainbow Tower. At this time, facing the mid-level mage Sullivan, he naturally did not dare to treat him with any disrespect.
“Already dead?”
Sullivan stopped suddenly and froze in place.
“Yes, the association originally had a doctor in the town of Sur. He brought back Kailavin’s death report. The mage seemed to have a strange disease.”
Hearing the other party’s words, Sullivan immediately noticed something strange.
“Take me to see the death report.”
Naturally, the person in charge of the Magic Association did not dare to refuse. He immediately took Sullivan to the archives of the association headquarters and found Kailavin Napishtim’s death report and pathology report. This was sent by Dr. Philip a few days ago.
Looking through Kailavin’s death report, the expression on Sullivan’s face became more and more gloomy.
“I have seen this symptom in the paper. The two elements that Madame Maria studied would cause the surrounding creatures to have this kind of disease. Only the magic barrier above the fourth ring can withstand such erosion.”
Sullivan said, taking notes in his notebook.
“Wait, did you just say that there was a strong release of energy at the scene of those young people’s death?”
He suddenly asked, causing the confused Magic Association leader to shudder involuntarily.
“Yes, that’s right.”
“Damn it, is Kailavin studying this element?”
Sullivan had already connected the dots at this time. He understood that studying this element without protective measures was tantamount to suicide. But why did Kailavin want to do this?
“Let’s go to the scene where the energy release was discovered.”
Without stopping, Sullivan immediately rode a carriage to the scene of the accident. As no one dared to approach, plus the weather was hot, so the corpses of these young people had long been rotten, giving off a disgusting stench. Sullivan opened the magic barrier to isolate the stench and approached the scene.
In the quiet air hid the invisible murderous intent.
Suddenly, a strong wave of energy hit Sullivan’s magical barrier. These deadly energies tried to tear Sullivan’s barrier, but it was to no avail, so they could only surround it.
“This kind of feeling… It is really the…”
Sullivan scanned the ugly corpses and finally found an opened black box in the arms of one of the corpses.
There was a dark stone in the box. Sullivan picked it up with the wizard’s hand, and immediately cast an Appraisal Apell.
The result of the appraisal surprised him, because it was nothing but the naturally formed Redir ore! ! !
This element, discovered and named by Madame Maria ten years ago, had the characteristic of releasing energy. There were still many unsolved mysteries waiting for the mages to study, but because the energy released was enough to kill the vast majority of people, including low-level mages. So only the middle-level and high-level mages were allowed to study it.
“It’s just that the characteristic of the Redir element should take effect very quickly, and it shouldn’t be possible for them to carry it for such a long time before there is a problem…”
Sullivan thought. These dead people were ordinary people, there was no way for them to resist its energy, so it was impossible for them to leave the town of Sur to such a far place while carrying this ore.
“Unless there is a way to prevent this energy from leaking…”
He then moved his eyes down and landed on the black box that originally contained the ore
