Chapter 51
"Could it be poisoning?"

Wu Liuqi pouted behind her back.

Merlin spread his hands, "There is no magic that can test for drugs, don't think about it."

Wu Liuqi said dissatisfiedly: "Shouldn't this kind of dirty work be handed over to the police? They two mages can't handle this kind of thing no matter what."

"Stop complaining, go and have a look in other rooms." Said Merlin who was holding his nose behind him.

The two searched the entire village.

The village has a total of 145 people.

All died.

They didn't feel much about this matter, Wu Liuqi had long been used to seeing life and death, and Merlin was the kind of person who treated every life equally, and would not feel sad about "death".

He just felt a little nauseous.

"What do you see?" Merlin asked.

Wu Liuqi held his nose. They moved all the corpses to the open space. He couldn't stand the strong smell.

Everyone dies the same way.

His facial expression was ferocious, and there were no wounds on his body.

There also seemed to be no explanation other than poisoning.

Merlin lit a fire. Cremation is popular in this world. They also believe that after death, only flames can wash away sins. There is no idea that cremation is more environmentally friendly.

"Split-toothed bird, why is there no slit-toothed bird here?!" Wu Liuqi suddenly realized that something was wrong. The mission described in the mission scroll was to solve the plague, but these villagers showed no signs of illness at all.

"Merlin, where is the mission scroll?"

Merlin opened the door and took out the scroll.

It was a very ordinary encrypted parchment, and the contents had not changed.

Recorder: High-ranking mage, Klein.

The village of Andrew is facing death, and an unknown plague covers the village. Please go there, find the source of the plague, and use your wisdom to solve it.This is a very suitable task for interns, take care all the way, young mages.

"Unknown plague?" Wu Liuqi murmured.

So the person who recorded the quest wasn't sure what kind of plague it was either.

Merlin interrupted suddenly: "The missions of high-ranking mages usually don't go wrong. Let's walk again, maybe we will find clues. I guess this unknown disaster has already happened when he came to the village, and he can't find the reason. , may have used a lot of probing spells, and after confirming that there is no danger, he threw this task to us."

"Many high-level mages will issue tasks like this. If they can't solve them by themselves, they will use probing spells to check for dangers and then throw them to newcomers."

Merlin looked at the parchment and sighed, "It's really not easy for a newcomer."

As he spoke, he took out a map.

Wu Liuqi's eyes lit up: "If you have such a good thing, why didn't you take it out earlier?"

Merlin pointed to a hut: "I found it when you moved the corpse just now."

The two looked at the map.

Merlin said: "There is a pier next to the village. I don't know if there are any living people there. We haven't seen the slit-toothed bird in such a long time. Maybe the initial inference was wrong. This plague has nothing to do with the slit-toothed bird. "

"We must treat all life equally, and we cannot deny him just because he once brought disasters to the world..."

"Oh... don't go, listen to me..."

Wu Liuqi didn't care about Merlin, who was talking on his own. In some respects, he really got the true biography of Greenwood, and he was in the same way when he said nonsense.

The two came to the pier.

This part of the world is relatively backward. It is said to be a dock, but in fact there are only two small beds.

"You two!! What are you here for?!"

A boy came out of the hut by the pier. He had a long scar on his face and looked extremely fierce.

It was such a young man who looked at Wu Liuqi and Mei Lin with a trace of fear in his eyes.

"Don't be afraid, the two of us have no malicious intentions," Merlin said.

"What happened in the village? Do you know? Oh, by the way, we are mages, and we are specially here to investigate."

The boy snorted coldly: "What's the use of knowing? You didn't come when the plague broke out! Everyone died and you came to investigate instead! Let me tell you, can those who died come back to life?"

Wu Liuqi stepped up one by one, grabbed the neck and lifted the boy up.

"This kind of child is in the rebellious period, so you don't need to tell him too much."

"Cut it!"

A pair of scissors lay across the boy's neck.

"Even if you put on a pitiful look, it's useless. The aura on your body has already exposed you. You have killed too many people, and the accumulated resentment can't be erased. And your eyes, if you want to pretend to be helpless Let’s get rid of the scars on your face first.”

Merlin wanted to stop him.

As a mage, you can't be biased. Even if this boy kills countless people, he must be treated as an equal.

Before he came, he opened his mouth in a hurry, and the boy directly bit Wu Liuqi's arm.

Then he grabbed the scissors with his backhand and stabbed Wu Liuqi in the eyes.

"What a ruthless boy!" Such a thought flashed in the minds of both of them at the same time, and the next second, the inscription on Merlin's hand lit up, and Wu Liuqi's fingertips gathered true energy.

"Scissors with Qi!"

The scissors in the boy's hand fell off, and the scissors controlled by Zhen Qi cut off his right hand, followed by the golden inscription, tightly binding the boy's limbs.

After counting interest.

The boy stopped struggling, and Merlin typed another inscription to stop the bleeding on his right hand.

"You are too far behind the two of us. If you want to kill us, this three-legged cat skill is not enough."

Wu Liuqi looked at Merlin, who nodded.

The runes that bound the boy gradually tightened, and his limbs began to deform. Merlin said unhurriedly: "I don't need to tell you what will happen next. My magic will not stop until you tell us the truth. After the hands and feet are The calf, the thigh after the calf, the squeeze of space is extremely painful, you may not feel it now, but you will not be able to stand it soon."

"Trust me, your life will be worse than death."

Merlin's half-smile was half a smile, and the boy's forehead was covered with fine cold sweat.

The horrific screams echoed in the small pier.

——Mage Merlin treats all creatures equally, good or bad, and will not hesitate to kill them.

Simply put.

He is a mage, he has no feelings.

Just when the boy screamed.

Two black figures jumped out of the water.

Wu Liuqi's eyes froze.

"Splittooth bird! Has it finally appeared?"

The two looked at each other, and Merlin released the inscription that imprisoned the boy.

"My right, your left!"

"Scissors with Qi!"

Ji Dabao's super scissors, additional features: nothing is continuous.

The scissors shredded the carapace of the split-toothed bird, and it whimpered and rushed towards Wu Liuqi.

Magic: Open the door.

A golden ring sparkling appeared in front of the Clefttooth.

The speed of the charge was too fast to change the direction. The Clefttooth Bird fell headlong into the door, and on the other side of the door was another Clefttooth Bird charging towards Merlin.

The two giant beasts collided, and the huge impact made them dizzy for a while.

The scissors followed.

"Keep alive!" Merlin added.

The scissors that were slashing at the bird's head changed direction and cut at the bird's claws instead.

Blood splattered.

The two monsters lost their ability to move.

"The boy ran away." Wu Liuqi said.

Merlin said: "I know, he has my magic imprint on him, first look at these two birds, he can't run away."

Wu Liuqi asked: "Why do you want to keep alive? What clues can there be on the two birds?"

Merlin said: "The source of the plague is still uncertain, keep it and let it lead us to find other split-toothed birds, maybe the source is there."
