Chapter 1 The Traveler Mage of the Guest Detective and the Trap Succubus
The Principality of Herrien is an absolutely neutral country standing in the north of Chiyan Continent. It is famous for its multi-ethnic inclusion and absolute neutrality that has never invaded foreign countries for thousands of years since its founding. Vita is a border town in this country. At this time, Lynn, the apprentice of the Nine Towers Spell Council, was resting and thinking in the hotel.
Time traveler Lynn is very depressed. He does have reasons for depression. As a new mage who has just mastered the three-ring arcane art, he undoubtedly won the "Lottery King" in the trial of a mage that is related to future and destiny.
When the students happily went to the small forest beside the town to deal with the bear goblins and wild beasts, Lynn, who is known as "the most unlike mage apprentice of the Nine Towers", was assigned by the parliament to Vita, the most remote border town in the north of the Principal of Herrien, to deal with the confusing murders and completely unknown enemies there.
"Hey, who told me that I was so lucky? I had never seen my parents when I was born, and I didn't even know my surname. I still have the blood of a barbarian. No wonder those mages who claim to be noble excluded me." The tall and burly barbarian mage thought of this, but did not reflect on my own being excluded at all. In addition to his barbarian bloodline, it was because of his "great achievements" of all apprentices who relied on their strength to defeat all the apprentices of the same period when they first entered the apprenticeship.
"In less than a month, I am a three-ring shaping elemental mage, and I don't know much about detecting prophetic spells. How did I go to the haystack to find this killer hidden in the crowd? If he doesn't show up for a month, then I'm not waiting to fail." It was already winter outside, and Lin En's heart was burning like a fire.
This trial opportunity was finally obtained by his mentor. It is said that the old master was also very angry because of this. If he failed so unknown, he would probably have no face to explain to the old master who was as close as father and son to him.
"Damn it, in this town with a population of nearly 50,000 or 60,000, how to find the next victim and murderer? Do you have to ask me to come out in the square to quickly? I'm here to catch you, and he wants him to come to me on his own initiative." Lin En was anxious to think about it, "take the initiative to find me on his own initiative." He seemed to have caught some clues and began to think carefully.
"I remember a book mentioned in my previous life that criminal psychology is to think about problems from the perspective of the criminal. Most of the victims are outsiders or living alone, which means that the murderer selectively looks for objects that are not easy to find when the victim is not easily discovered." Forced into a dead end, Lin En's thinking became clearer and clearer instead
"That is to say, if he wants to hide himself and continue to kill people, then instead of finding him with luck, let him take the initiative to find me. Time is too short, let's take the opportunity to take the initiative to find me. It's too late, just take a gamble." Reverse thinking and gambler mentality made Lynn make up his mind.
He left the town that night and came back the next morning, but this time there were not many people who recognized him.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Late at night, the four-leaf clover constellation in the middle of the sky marks another unbearable cold winter. The border town of Vita is biting cold and there are few pedestrians on the road. The newly opened bar "Roil Copper Pot" in the town is bustling with people and is in full swing.
The bar door was crackling with the cold wind, but the bonfire in the bar fireplace was burning vigorously.
At the bar, men surrounded the beautiful bar owner Ianna, who was very attentive. Ianna is a famous romantic widow around. It is said that the whole Vita wants to have a lovely love, and men can line up from the bar to outside the city gate.
Beside the fireplace, a group of people were surrounding a barbarian warrior and listening to his bragging. The barbarian was about two or three in height, and his ragged leather armor was covered with strong muscles. The exquisite battle axe with one or eight behind him implying the amazing power of the user. The thick black beard on his chin made people unable to see his face and age. The black eyes as big as a copper bell were bright and his voice was as loud as thunder.
"Ha, seeing the strong body of the old man, those damn bear goblins shivered and surrounded them timidly. I took the opportunity to chop down two of them. Ha, one jumped and slashed and killed three of them, and one whirlwind slashed and five of them. The timid goblins were so scared that they scattered."
The savage man lowered his head and took a sip of the ale, and raised his head and the sound became louder.
"Uncle, I shouted, 'Don't run away, hand over the treasure, kneel down and don't kill.' The bear goblins came back obediently and knelt down, put the gold coin bag on their heads, I took it one by one, weighed it, felt that I had gained a lot, so I said, 'Get out', ha, the bear goblins didn't dare to get up, and rolled away directly on the ground."
After the barbarians told the story, they started drinking again, but the audience around them became riot
"Just blow, when will the bear goblins understand the common term and still have gold coins?" This is a question about the bear goblins' intelligence.
"Can you attack the range of jumping? You can also slash three with one and whirlwind slash. With your equipment, you have a bronze staircase? Then I have a holy dragon defender with treasures long ago." The warrior who was teasing the bar girl at the edge of the bar raised doubts about the protagonist of the story. Judging from his contemptuous expression, he obviously believed that the barbarian warrior was a parallel warrior who could blow the atmosphere.
Although the whirlwind slash is not a high-level combat skill, it already involves the use of qi. The premise of comprehension is to exercise the body to the extreme. This requires at least a warrior above the level five bronze level to meet the requirements. This bragging barbarian warrior has a flat temple and a dull eyes, and obviously does not have the basic skills to use qi.
"It is worthy of being a bragging overlord and barbarian clan. You dare to brag about any cow. You have money and live in a bad tavern." This is a question of the racial character of barbarians.
The savage man was not annoyed when he heard this, and laughed loudly, and started drinking with no words.
The barbarians are brainless, reckless, greedy, and bragging temperaments are well known to the entire Chiyan Continent. Therefore, although this barbarian has been in the town for less than half a month and has become acquainted with many regular guests in the taverns. The barbarians who are addicted to alcohol use the tavern as their home, and in the past half month, they have traveled all the taverns on the streets and alleys of Vita.
In this border town where even the bards don’t want to come, it’s a rare entertainment for listening to the bragging of barbarians. In the past half month, some people even followed the barbarians to go around the bars in Vita to listen to his “adventure stories”. The stories of barbarians have become increasingly exaggerated and interesting as the audience increases.
The barbarians who used to be able to make fun of the night saw clearly that they were tired today, and the story was over in just a few seconds. Now they were just concentrating on drinking. The audiences around them saw that the barbarians were not very talkative, and the crowd gradually dispersed. They each started chatting with their companions. The topic became more and more distant, and gradually began to talk to the most sensational murder case in the town at present.
"It is said that the blacksmith John's family was also dead on the south street, and the whole family was dead..."
"Is this the tenth? It is said that they all died extremely miserably. The group of wastes in the garrison, the winter beast tide, has not yet begun, and people have died in the town. How can I live this day?"
"Say a few words, my brother is in the garrison, and some dead people's blood are left dry. There is a magic circle made of blood next to the leaked corpse. It is said to be an evil blood sacrifice. My brother said that it was either a vampire or a black wizard. "When talking about the infamous black wizard, the speaker couldn't help but tremble.
"Black Wizard!" The people around couldn't help but make a sound. The air seemed to suddenly condense, and the bar suddenly became quiet.
"Ho...huh...huh...huh..." Suddenly, a thunderous snoring broke the unbearable calm. People looked at the voice, but found that the barbarian had fallen asleep soundly.
"This guy always does this. He goes there and sleeps there. He drinks enough and then goes to bed. He is not afraid of murderers coming to him."
"It's easy to have no brains. I'd be like that guy."
"Sleeping in the tavern every day, then your old Martha kicked you out of bed." Someone around him immediately started to joke with him
"My Martha is not so arrogant..."
The atmosphere of conversation around became more and more lively.
The bar maid arranged two big men to help slowly carry the barbarians to the room upstairs, with great skill. It was obvious that taking care of the drunks was already their daily job.
As the barbarians left, the bars became noisy again, but the topic had nothing to do with the murders. They were all meaningless and heard about the wind, flowers, snow and moon, as if the noise of the crowd could dispel the coldness of autumn and winter and drive away the shadow of death in people's hearts.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was two o'clock in the morning and it was getting late. The bar hall was empty. A charming figure stood at the door of the second floor guest room. Listening to the thunderous snoring in the guest room, the woman quietly pushed the door and walked in.
In the room, the barbarian opened his mouth wide and kept his saliva, and was already sleeping unconsciously, and the thunderous snoring echoed in the room.
The woman walked to the bed and saw the barbarian sleeping well. The woman walked slowly and slowly towards the head of the bed. She approached her head and slowly kissed the barbarian with her bright red lips.
Could it be like a barbarian courtship? When did human aesthetics have such a big deviation, a barbarian cannot even see clearly, and it is so popular.
At the critical moment, the snoring stopped, and a big hand suddenly twisted the woman's right wrist and said, "What are you doing?". A low thunderous roar sounded in the woman's ears, and the savage man who was confused actually woke up at this time.
The moonlight shone on the woman's slightly panicked face, allowing the barbarian to see her face clearly. The beauty who took the initiative to come to the door was actually Ianna, the bar owner's wife. The rare panic on her pretty face made her more beautiful and charming than usual. Her tempting curves in her tulle were visible under the moonlight. Her breasts and beautiful buttocks that could not be covered under the veil were particularly tempting and moving.
"So it's the boss's wife. I have something to do with us so late? The money we paid for in advance was used up." The barbarian questioned in confusion.
The woman was Ianna, the bar watchmaker. When she saw the barbarian awaken, she smiled slightly, and her panic expression instantly switched to a charming smile.
"The long night is long and I can't sleep. I'm here to talk to my elder brother." The soft whisper seemed to have endless temptation.
But not everyone will take the beauty trick. Suddenly, there was a severe pain in his right wrist. The beauty frowned when he was in pain, but the barbarian laughed, and his thick and rude voice suddenly became gentle and magnetic.
"Beauty is like jade, beauties are like dreams. Unfortunately, I am Lynn, I have no habit of finding a demon to warm the bed." It turns out that this barbarian warrior was disguised by pursuing the murderer, wizard apprentice Lynn.
Faced with the desperate situation in front of him, he insisted on taking advantage of his barbarian bloodline and used his bars to be the most likely drunkard to disappear one by one. Even he himself did not expect that he was so lucky. In less than half a month, he actually waited for the rabbit and pretended to be drunk and encountered the murderer. As for how Lin En discovered the identity of the boss's wife, you can tell at the moment his performance.
Seeing Ianna's expression still pretending to be innocent, Lynn pursed her lips and signaled Ianna to look to the ground. She only saw the moonlight imprinting the shadow of the beautiful boss lady on the floor, but she was a charming figure with long horns on her head and wings and hoofs behind her.
Transformation can only change the appearance, and under the moon goddess Elune, which represents reality and holy, no evil creature can continue to maintain disguise.
Seeing that he could no longer hide it, a flash of fire flashed, and Ianna's beautiful face instantly turned into ferociousness. Shui Liang's pupils, full of temptation, instantly turned into vertical pupils with full beast nature.
Lin En felt as if he was burning with his right hand. When the tiger's mouth hurts, his hand loosens, and the boss's wife disappears without a trace.
The barbarian mage stood against the wall, looking around with great caution. He knew that in order to conceal his identity, if the succubus felt that he had the chance to kill him, the insider, would not easily consider giving up his identity and escaping.
"The innate spell Burning Hand and Invisibility are only adult female succubus," said the barbarian in a deep voice. He paused for a special moment when describing the word "only" and "female" of animals. It was obvious that Lynn was planning to completely anger the succubus,
"Only? Female? Damn Savage, I wanted to have fun with you first. Before the blood sacrifice, I would cut off your flesh and chew off your bones." The sharp voice seemed particularly harsh in the middle of the night, and the sound stirred back and forth in the small room. What was strange was that the location of the pronunciator could not be found.
Most low-level demons are transformed from evil souls falling into the abyss, and there are many memories of the past. It seems that the barbarians do not regard demons as wise creatures, which has extremely successfully angered the demon.
"Sound magic? With the succubus's natural temptation of humans and anesthetic kiss, at least five types of magic abilities, it seems that it is about to advance, and it is not easy to do. Haha, fortunately, I didn't greedy for the cheap, so I let her kiss." It turned out that the boss's kiss was even more uneasy. If he was kissed, it would be inevitable that he would be sacrificed under general anesthesia.
Thinking of the enemy being quite powerful, Lin En frowned slightly, and couldn't help but think about it, but he was even more unforgivable. "What a boring, an ancient threat. It seems that the boss's wife is not young anymore and is still "heart talk". Who doesn't know that the demons and angels are both sex creatures, and then they don't know whether it's 'Lele' or 'Back'."
Demons can choose their gender when they are "born", but except for a very few perverts, no one will take the initiative to change the color of their souls. Obviously, Lynn is distorting the knowledge related to the demons and trying to anger the invisible succubus.
"Ha, Isn't it just to stimulate me to show my appearance?" The succubus smiled furiously. "I think it's about seeing what a low-level barbarian who doesn't even have a sense of energy can do with me, Lord Ianna."
In the words, the enchanting figure with the bat-winged hoof feet appeared in a corner of the room, and a faint smell of sulfur suddenly appeared in the room. This smell with flames and lava was the symbol of the demon legion, and the succubus was not low.
"I want to see if your hands are as hard as your 'mouth'"" After appearing, the succubus, who is famous for his treacherous and cunning, calmed down and teased him in a pun, and while speaking, he even gave the barbarian a glamorous look.
As the mid-level commander of the Abyss Demon, Succubus is not good at fighting ability. Fraud, temptation, and the dagger behind it is their trump card.
But this weak combat ability is discussed relative to the intermediate level of the demon Silver Level (above level ten). The temple of the "barbarian" Lin Neng was not prominent, and he obviously did not realize the sense of energy. He did not even enter the bronze level of the battle position (above level five) and the succubus in the silver level felt that he could eat him steadily, so he swaggered to give up the advantage of invisibility and face the enemy head-on.
"Is that so? Then see what this is."
Lin Neng clasped his hands together and practiced words. In a flash, an orange-red fireball as big as a football appeared between Lin Neng's hands. He pushed the fireball flatly, and quickly flew towards the succubus.
"How is it possible? Can the barbarians still work as part-time mage?" Succubus Ianna was so frightened by this very conscious phenomenon that she turned to run towards the door.
There was a loud "bang". The fireball exploded three meters away from the succubus behind the left. When the succubus saw the explosion of the fireball, he felt relieved and stopped.
"I am a vulgar barbarian. I use high-temperature spells on the demons born with fire kang. Oh my god, what a bad magic control power, you can beat the target at such a close distance." Under normal circumstances, the three-ring shaping arcane fireball exploded from the core, with a killing radius of three meters around. Obviously, the succubus believed that this spell was completely impossible to hit him.
Unexpectedly, the fire spread rapidly to the five-meter periphery of the explosion center. The careless succubus was trapped in it. The fire barely stopped in front of Lin Neng. It seemed that his estimate of the spell range was very accurate, and the succubus suffered from common sense.
However, the second floor of the bar is completely finished. With the addition of Lin Neng's special physique, the most destructive power under the silver level and the highest cost-effective spell - the three-ring shaping spell Fireball Technique, played a very long destructive role.
As a result, the pillars on the second floor of the bar were split, and the four empty rooms on the second floor were completely destroyed. A large skylight was opened on the roof of the bar. It seemed that people could no longer be accommodated without thorough renovation. However, the bar owner was lying in the ruins with charred body, so there should be no need to worry about business issues.
Looking at the unbelievable eyes on the charred body of the succubus, the joy of successfully pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger and challenging the success made Lynn overwhelmed
"Now I know the skills in my hand. I think the fireball in my natural fire pit skin can't blow you to death. Do you want to know that the fireball technique with a three-meter explosion radius extends to five meters? Do you want to know how I wear leather armor to cast spells?"
Seeing the succubus showing expectant expression as expected, Lin En smiled even happier.
"The murderous demon wants the right to know. I just don't tell you, so you can go back to the abyss with your eyes open. There is one thing that can be told to you. From the beginning, you were wrong. I am not a barbarian berserker. I, Lynn, a mixed race between the barbarians and humans in the Northland, and a mage."
After saying that, Lin Neng raised the exquisite battle axe that he had forgotten for a long time, swung her neatly, and cut off her head under the austerity's resentful stare.
