Lord of Arcane

Chapter 2501 History Leaves Traces
the next day.

On the Alfa Square, which has long been under martial law, the twelve investigators finally changed their depressed emotional state two days ago. The dwarf search master from the Underdark region rarely stretched his brows and smiled:
"Finally found the key clue!"

"Master Kandar is still superior. No matter how cunning this assassin is, he can't escape the true eyes of Master Kandar!"

"There must be Master Kandar, otherwise we will really lose face this time."

……

Several elf investigators surrounded Kandal, complimenting him non-stop, making the smile on the face of the dwarf from the Underdark even more real.

"Okay, let's not talk about that, I'm not as good as you in terms of the subtlety of spellcasting, the most important thing now is to fix the evidence, and then ask Netheril and Yeerlan to allow us to continue the investigation."

"That's the truth."

Soon, when the investigation team began to fix the evidence, Horn and Badigal, who had been notified by Brundes, rushed to Offa Square with Yeerlan Ambassador Eve Yaris, who was also very concerned about the matter.

As soon as he arrived, Badigal couldn't wait to ask the investigation team, "Have you found any useful clues? Can you confirm the identity of the assassin?"

"Before we noticed that the assassin seemed to appear in this square out of thin air, but this was obviously unreasonable. Today, under the attention of Master Kandal, we found something unusual."

Investigator Simmer from Ilfaron and Badigal were old, so he took the initiative to introduce the progress, "Your Excellency Badigal, and Ambassador Ifyaris, please come here!"

"Which side?"

"here."

Xi Mo led the way. First, he walked south from the north side of the square where Ye Erlan held the exhibition, and stopped when he reached the gate of the Austrian Federation. At this time, an elf investigator was casting a spell. There are two staring.

When Badigal came over, he could already see a vague body with a smear frozen out of the air. At the same time, Sime introduced:

"This is a trace of history, and it requires extremely sophisticated detection spells aimed at the past to detect it. Master Kandal noticed the abnormality only through his breath, and he has to be said to be very talented.

"The traces of history you see now are traces of the past that share the same source as the assassins. Judging from the direction of their movement, it seems that they have just come out of the Austrian Law Federation.

"If the two agree, we will continue to pursue until we find the original source, or find clues that can determine his identity."

"Of course, we must continue to investigate and rush to assassinate a Netheril lord in Severnton. This is not only a provocation from Netheril, but also a provocation to the Northern Alliance."

After Badigal finished speaking, Ifyaris also immediately expressed his opinion, "Falsely using the name of Taiwei Mansa is also a provocation to Yeerlan, Master Ximer, please investigate to the end!"

"Yes, we are also members of the Northland Alliance. Even if we don't provide you with high rewards, for the sake of the stability of the Northland, we don't want to let go of the mastermind behind this incident."

With the consent of both Netheril and Yerlan, Seamer looked at the other investigators, and the remaining ten elf investigators took their own actions.

Although Kandal has rich experience, he is not good at extracting evidence and fixing evidence. Just finding the right direction for the investigation team is enough to deserve this reward.

Now that Sime accompanied Badigal and others to check the situation on the scene, Kandal was free, so he started to wander around the Offa Square.

When Offa Square was built, Netheril had already established diplomatic relations with Danzo, but because most of the dwarves were active in the Underdark and had little communication with humans, there were not many statues around the square related to dwarves.

Kandar turned around and only found two. One was a dwarf craftsman who was ordered to explore the mines in Netheril. It was remembered by human history because he taught humans the more advanced dwarf forging techniques during the mine exploration process. .

The other is a dwarf craftsman who proposed to build the underground passage connecting Zenith and Askor. No matter in the past or now, Zenith is one of the most important towns in the western region of Netheril. The dwarf has such a There should be such a statue in its origin.

In addition, the statues on Offa Square are mostly casters, humans and elves, and some are priests who sacrificed to save the people in the past.

Apart from the surrounding statues, there is nothing else worth visiting in Offa Square. It is an open space like other squares. If it is normal, there may be some vendors or performers who can be lively.

But now the place is completely under martial law and deserted. Kandal sat down on the steps in front of the Severton Parliament with a lack of interest after strolling around, took out the jug and started drinking.

Through the statues around the square and the text descriptions on the bases of the statues, he had a general understanding of the history of Netheril. He had to admit that although human life was short, it was no less exciting than that of dwarves.

……

On the other side, Badigal followed Simmer through the historical traces. At first, the traces pointed to the Austrian Federation, but soon bypassed the Austrian Federation and pointed to the north again. It was Severton The direction of the parliament, but also the direction of the elf embassy!
Seeing this scene, Eve Yaris, who was also behind Sime, became nervous. If the clues were extended to the Yeerlan embassy, ​​it would be completely unclear.

But he couldn't object at this moment. He had clearly agreed to continue the investigation just now, and now he suddenly objected. Wouldn't it be just for nothing to bring the suspicion on him.

He has already received a clear reply from Taiwei Mansa that this matter was not done by Ye Erlan, so there is no need to worry about the investigation. The clearer and more detailed the investigation, the better it will be for Ye Erlan.

"I hope you guys really have the ability to find really useful clues!"

……

Soon, the footsteps of Seamer and his party had arrived at the entrance of the Severton Council, where the investigators also found a trace of history. Regarding this, Seamer explained:

"The Assassin is very shrewd, almost blocking all possibilities of detection, but as long as everything is touched, it will leave traces, even if he accidentally glanced at others while walking, it will leave traces.

"The traces here are left by him looking down at that time."

Horn, who came over with Badigal but remained silent until now, suddenly asked: "Then why the traces just discovered are not connected in a line? Could it be that the assassin has been using the teleportation spell to move forward?"

"After all, it's the traces of the past, which are constantly dissipating. Only those heavier traces can last longer. If it takes a few more days, there may be nothing here." Xi Mo replied naturally.

After hearing this, Horn returned to silence again. He understood that he had asked an amateurish question. Fortunately, historical discovery is not his main field of research, otherwise it would be too embarrassing.
