Hyperdimensional Warlock

Chapter 1482 Murder in Gust Town
To say Alex is funny doesn't mean his character.It was Angor who discovered that this Alex had a very peculiar aura.If the aura is likened to a halo, then everyone else is shrouded in a layer of darkness, but Alex is as bright and dazzling as the sun.

Because the only power Angel can use now is illusion, he didn't see why Alex had such an aura that was so different from other people.

Angel simply began to observe this Alex.

During the observation process, Angel also noticed that this Alex seemed to be able to see himself, and when other people glanced at him, they were unaware of it because of the blinding illusion.But when Alex glanced at him, although he concealed it well, the micro reaction of his pupils still betrayed him.

Could this Alex be an extraordinary person?However, it doesn't look like it.

Angel thought that Alex would pretend not to see him all the time, but he didn't expect that when all the people in the church left, he would take the initiative to talk to him.

"Are you a ghost?" Alex asked again.

Angel stared at Alex, this white-haired boy who looked no more than sixteen or seventeen years old. When facing him, he had no other emotions, no fear, no surprise, just curiosity.

If this is a four or five-year-old child who is innocent and ignorant, that's fine.But Alex obviously had a lot of thoughts, but his thoughts were not on others, but on himself.

When dealing with foreign objects and even outsiders, there is an attitude of "doesn't matter whether there is or what is not."

It was not easy for Angel's appearance to make him show a little curiosity.

"Have you ever seen a ghost?" Angor asked back.

"It seems that you are not a ghost." Alex said very firmly.

"Your observation is very keen." Angel nodded noncommittally.

Alex continued to answer Angel's question before: "I don't know if I have seen a ghost, maybe I have, my heart tells me so."

"Is it because of amnesia?" Angel remembered that the priest named Branlang seemed to have mentioned that Alex lost his memory.

"Eavesdropping is not a polite behavior." Alex said softly, without going into too much detail or harshness, and continued: "It is indeed a relationship of losing memory. I don't remember what I have experienced, but I tell you in my heart I, who I used to be, may have seen ghosts."

Alex paused: "Mr. Pat, have you ever seen a ghost?"

"I have seen."

Angel's assertion without hesitation made Alex a little distracted, and muttered in a low voice: "It turns out that ghosts really exist, not my imagination?"

Angor thought that Alex would ask about the ghost, but he quickly calmed down and didn't ask anything, but said: "Then Mr. Pat is not a ghost, so what is it? Why can't others see it?" your turn?"

Angel: "It's normal that other people can't see me. I think you should ask: Why can you see me?"

Without any hindrance, Alex followed Angel's words and asked, "Why can I see you?"

"I don't know either." Angor replied with a smile.

Alex was taken aback by this malicious answer, and the corners of his calm mouth couldn't help twitching.

Angel did not know, but he thought it might have something to do with Alex's lost memory, maybe he was once a Transcendent.After all, the transcendent's inspiration is very strong, and the blinding illusion he casts is actually very low-level. The pure use of illusion energy does not involve the level of "law".Ordinary talented people can detect something is wrong, but it is not difficult for apprentice wizards who have entered the door to see themselves.

Angel: "I'm curious, don't you feel scared when you see someone that others can't see?"

Alex: "If you're going to kill me, you have plenty of chances; if you're not, why should I be afraid?"

After Alex finished speaking, he didn't even pay attention to Angel, but sat down, took out a piece of paper and recorded some words.

"The deduction of the death of Knight Riven?" Angel muttered softly, and muttered to himself: "So, have the current priests even started part-time detectives to solve the case?"

Alex continued to hold the pen, rustling and writing quickly on the paper.

However, the content in it was very brief. It just listed the name of Knight Riven, and then on the other side of his name, wrote Faxi's name, and marked "Fasi's birthday present" underneath.

Alex thought for a moment, and finally crossed out all the characters and wrote a place name: Holy City.

"Where is the holy city?" Angel saw that Alex was focusing on the things in his hands, so he planned to walk around the church and then leave, but he did not expect Alex to write a place name in the end.

What Angel was looking for was location information, so he asked directly.

Alex put down his pen and looked at Angel suspiciously. It seemed that he was a little surprised that Angel didn't know about the holy city.

Alex was silent for a long time, and instead of asking about Angel's background, he asked, "...Why did you follow me?"

"I want to ask you for some information." Angel did not hide anything.

"what's the message?"

"Location information." Angel pointed to Alex's "Holy City" on the paper: "I want to know where this is, where is the Holy City, and what is the name of this continent? "

Angel's three consecutive questions made Alex's eyes move slightly: "Listen to your tone, are you not from this continent?"

"I don't know." Angel shrugged: "Aren't I waiting for your answer? After you answer, I can confirm whether I am from this continent."

Alex looked at Angel quietly, always feeling that this strange person was full of mysterious unknowns.

"This is Gust Town. It is said that it is in the southeast of the Holy City. The Holy City is an acropolis of the Kruya God Court, and it is also the closest city to Gust Town."

Angel: "It is said? Haven't you been there?"

Alex shook his head: "At least in my memory, I haven't been there."

Angor's gaze unconsciously looked at the page. The "Holy City" on it was clearly visible, and he asked casually: "You have never been to the Holy City, so what do you mean by writing this Holy City? Or do you think , the death of this Riven knight is related to the holy city?"

Alex shook his head: "There's no evidence of that, it's just..."

When Alex said this, he suddenly fell silent.

Angor came here to find location information, not to solve the case, and he didn't care about the answer. He was about to continue asking about the location, but at this time Alex continued the topic that he hadn't finished before.

"It's just that I don't think it's just the Knights of Raven. Miss Camelot, Uncle Minnie's family... These series of cases seem to have one thing in common." Alex secretly researched the causes of these people's deaths. , Although he couldn't find the murderer, he found something strange.However, for some reason, he didn't tell Father Branlang, nor anyone else.

Now Angel suddenly asked this question, Angel was a stranger to Alex, and also a stranger to Gust Town.

So, after thinking for a moment, he slowly expressed his long-suppressed desire to express.

"Knight Riven has a long-awaited lady named Faxi. He once told me that he wanted to confess his love to her on Faxi's birthday. Later, I heard that Faxi told her friend that if If she can go to the Psalm Hall to listen to a sacred chorus on her birthday, she will have no regrets in her life."

"The Psalm Hall is in the Holy City. I believe that the Riven Knight must have known the news. It will be Faxi's birthday in a few days, so he went to the Holy City alone, and his head was on the bridge pier of the Holy City. up, found."

Angel didn't want to listen to the analysis of the case, but Alex himself was completely immersed in the case.

"Knight Riven is not a single case. There have been many cases before him. All the dead have only one head. The sheriff said that the murderer is an unbiased murder, but I don't think it is right. I found a The commonality, the cause of their death, is all because they want to step out of Gust Town."

"Miss Camelot is going to the Holy City to visit her relatives whom she hasn't seen for many years, and Uncle Minnie's family is going to move to the Holy City... Knight Raven is most likely going to the Holy City to buy tickets for the Psalm Hall for Faxi .”

"It's all like this. All the dead are leaving Gust Town. Whether it is intentional or unintentional, as long as they step out of Gust Town, they will die."

"The entire town of Gust is like a birdcage that cannot escape."

"As long as the bird wants to fly away, its wings will be broken by an unknown hand."

Angor was not interested in the case of Gust Town at first, but after Alex's narration, he became interested.

If what Alex deduced is true, all the people who died actually died because they were leaving Gust Town.

So this series of cases is indeed not simple.

After all, it is impossible for everyone to tell others about their destination, but in the end, without any accident, everyone died.This is obviously not something that ordinary murderers can do. In particular, Alex analyzed one of the deceased. Her death was most likely due to a quarrel with her husband that night, and she was about to leave Gust Town in a fit of anger; It is impossible for a wizard to perfectly grasp the movements of other people. People's hearts are changeable, and there are countless possibilities every second.

Which "murderer" can grasp everyone's movements without omission, even if it's just an accidental quarrel and leave, can capture and kill someone?

Therefore, after listening to Angel, he felt that it might not be an ordinary case, and that it might be caused by Chaofan.

"As long as everyone wants to leave Gust Town, accidents will happen. So, why do you think?"

After releasing his inner desire to tell, Alex regained his calm look: "I don't know either."

"Then you study these cases out of curiosity?"

Alex shook his head without hesitation: "I'm not curious."
