After bumping into the villain boss [Western Fantasy]

Holding the materials he had just bought from a large purchase in his hand, Haishizi quickly sorted and stored them in his storage ring, and at the same time happily stepped into Sisia's Alchemy Association.

The entire room was covered with a layer of gold in the evening sunlight. Haishizi glanced at the clock in the distance, quickened his pace and moved forward twice, wanting to hurry to the front desk.

He came to receive this month's level benefits, and it didn't take much time, so he came so late, and he was already prepared to make a quick decision in his heart.

"Mr. Hayess!" Fina, who was sitting at the bar, raised her hand cheerfully when she saw this gentleman who came here often, "Long time no see, you've been busy lately—be careful!"

In the middle of her words, she hurriedly turned a corner, but unfortunately she still didn't have time to remind Haishizi.

The young man who was walking fast and briskly like flying suddenly staggered on the spot, stepped on the heel of his right foot with his left foot inexplicably, spun around twice, and fell directly to the ground.

"..." Haishizi's expression became a little depressed. He patted his clothes, stood up from the ground, and moved his ankles casually.

Fortunately, although the injury this time was inexplicable, but his physical fitness is doomed, it is not a particularly serious injury, and it will not cause any damage to him.

Thinking like this, he soon forgot about his fall just now, and didn't remember to sum up his experience of just falling, so Haishizi continued to walk briskly towards the counter.

"Fina, is there someone who can take the level-[-] assessment today? By the way, help me get this month's benefits, and I'll give you the list now."

Haishizi asked casually, but he didn't have much hope.

He didn't care much about whether he could get the fourth-level badge.After all, his purpose of learning alchemy is only for a wish, and he doesn't have any idea of ​​chasing fame and fortune, or the goal of continuing in this career for a long time.

However, alchemy is a money-consuming profession after all. If he can get a higher-level badge and save a little more money, he is still very happy.

It's just that Haishizi prefers to spend the whole day outside buying all kinds of excellent materials when they come here, and wait until the evening to collect the resources to avoid missing the materials they need.

Even with him, he often misses the person in charge of the fourth-level and above assessments who can do whatever they want during off-duty hours.

"Yes, Lord Sam is still here today." Fina glanced at the small notebook marked next to her out of the corner of her eye, and replied happily.

Could it be that they are going to issue two badges above level four today?This is a situation she has never encountered since she came to work here for several years.

His eyes lit up immediately, and he quickly turned his head to look at Ryan next to him: "Hello, please give me a registration form for the fourth-level assessment, please excuse me."

It's really rare. In the past, I often heard that Mr. Sam always left early. I don't know why he has not left until now.

But this is indeed a good time. The Alchemy Association always closes get off work at 6 pm, and there is still nearly an hour before they leave work, which is enough for Haishizi to pass the assessment.

----

Linton stood in the corner of the Alchemy Association, holding up a water-blue ball similar to the one he made during the assessment, shaking gently.

The things made during the assessment were made using the materials of the association, and of course they were handed in after the assessment was over.

This is the prototype of the alchemy artifact he made this afternoon, and it's something he just figured out some time ago.In a sense, it is a by-product of following Hirsch's research on light sources——

Construct a hollow ball with a small amount of materials, and then put the siren fish and other materials that have become a part of alchemy into the ball, which can amplify the "illusion" of the siren fish.

Thus, the holder of this alchemy can use it to create illusions that are difficult for humans to discover.Although these hallucinations are not difficult to detect for advanced magicians and fighters, they are indeed enough when the parties concerned have no vigilance.

Linton simply and rudely named this finished product "The Illusion of the Siren Fish". Because of the low production cost and high-quality effect of this alchemy art, he was thinking about whether to copy the production method and send it back to Prinlevi's territory .

However, it doesn't seem good to spread too much of this special thing, and it is easy to arouse people's vigilance.If everyone feels that there seems to be something hidden around them, people who use hallucinations to hide, then life will be difficult.

Still thinking about the countermeasures in his mind, Linton suddenly heard the sound of a heavy wooden door being pulled open, and looked around in response to the reputation, and saw Haishizi opening the door of the examination room——

With sharp eyes and quick hands, Linton took out a small tube and blew towards the doorknob.

The hand that was holding the handle suddenly slipped for some unknown reason, and then the upper body lost its balance and fell backwards, while the lower body kept moving forward.Haishizi fell very quickly and hard, and at the same time he opened the whole door and habitually fell to the ground in the most comfortable position.

"I fell down again..." Fina shook her head helplessly. She has long been used to the inexplicable falling habit of this gentleman with a very good personality and talent, and she is not surprised by it at all. .

Even she didn't feel a strange wind passing by her, rustling the door of the examination room.

As the strange wind, Linton took this opportunity to sneak into the examination room, while shrinking himself to the corner again, silently trying to figure out the ring on the little finger of his left hand.

The contact range of this ring is too short, but a mere alchemy association is still not a problem.

Linton closed his eyes half-closed, and his mental power penetrated into the ring, sending out word by word.

"Another person is conducting the assessment, and Joe Hull still handed him two agreements to sign."

When Linton came in this time, it could be said that he was fully armed. He wore a monocle over his right eye, and the silver chain hung down, swaying in the air with a shallow arc.The magic power in it is quickly transferred to the lens, causing the lens to glow slightly.

Through this "monocle for distinguishing contracts", Linton clearly saw that the second of the two agreements was covered with a black aura!

Sure enough, this Lord Sam is really planning something secretly!

Gently flicking his fingers, Linton quickly rummaged through the various alchemy items he had stored, which were not very useful but more sensitive, and soon found a disposable item that worked well.

"Action doll", you can attract a magnet as a sub-doll to a person, and then move the mother doll, the person the sub-doll is married to will follow the actions of the mother doll, can only be used once, and can only complete a large movement Or two small movements, three slight movements.

Linton saw Joshua stand up from his seat, and approached Hashizi, as if he wanted to observe what he wrote - presumably, his specially written wrong name was discovered, and the other party was not easy to grab What does this small detail say about himself, otherwise he will expose his ulterior motives, so he can only observe as much as possible on the second person.

It was also his action that caused Josue's line of sight to shift during his actions. Linton instinctively used the most excellent angle to flash the magnet and threw it on Hayes's body.

"Ouch." The dark green long-haired boy suddenly let out a soft cry of pain, and subconsciously touched his back, "Is the chair here a little in disrepair? It seems to have hit a nail just now."

Joshua was taken aback when he heard the words, and took a look at the same. Some old wooden chairs did have some nails shyly protruding from them.

"...I will notify the logistics people to come and repair it next time," Joshua thought for a while, "No, you, yes, that's right, it's the one over there, yes, it's you, go and notify those guys now .”

Josue was referring to one of the two apprentices standing in the room. The two of them were originally responsible for getting the materials. Now they looked at each other, and the one who was leaning towards the tall and strong one immediately turned to the one in the daily necessities warehouse. direction to go.

Joshua then turned his head again, looking at Haishizi's face full of amiability: "Why don't you wait for a while, wait for them to change the chair before signing, otherwise, if you hit a nail when signing, then But it's not beautiful."

"...Don't be so troublesome..." Haishizi was taken aback by this serious posture, and secretly felt a little weird in his heart, but Qiao Xiuer didn't give him a chance to react, and quickly called for someone to change the chair come over.

Sitting on a brand-new chair, Haishizi opened the second agreement with a somewhat cautious movement, picked up the quill pen and began to write letters on the last vacant space.

"h...l..."

As he was writing, Haishizi suddenly felt a little numb in his right hand. He subconsciously shook his arm, but he didn't expect that his center of gravity shifted and he fell off the chair.

The agreement paper that was still in his hand was scratched by the edge of the table when it fell down. Haishizi got up from the ground without paying much attention, and continued to write his name step by step.

"There was a slight mistake, but this kind of backup thing, don't you need to care about such trivial things?" As a habitual wrestler, Hai Shizi didn't care about the episode just now. Said almost as usual, nothing special.

"..." Joshua was silent for two seconds, as if trying to suppress his emotions, "Yes, you can start writing the list now, and I will send someone to the warehouse to fetch it."

"Okay, I will trouble you then."

Linton stood quietly in the corner, silently waiting for the signal from Ann Lane's side. At the same time, he unconsciously tried to figure out the ring on his little finger, recalling the previous conversation between the two.

------

"Don't you think it sounds familiar?"

"...Dark Silence Incident?" Linton, who had already vaguely thought about it, was silent for a long time.

The Silence of Darkness event, the death counterattack of the Dark God when he was about to fail.He used quite astonishing magic, which can swallow other people's talents with darkness, and then pour them into the body of the person who has darkness in his body.

Because of this special spell, many dark mages who had originally turned to the side of the God of Light chose to betray, and even those who did not betray remained silent about it.That's why it's called the Dark Silence Event.

The curse suffered by the top ten families is actually similar, that is, the talent is swallowed with darkness, but there is no step of transforming the darkness into talent and injecting it into other people.

If everything before was just a sign of someone offering sacrifices to the Dark God, then the clues they found now prove that the Dark God is recovering.

The dark god who implicated their family, made them suffer for generations, and fell from their original high status to dust... is recovering.

What a funny thing, the God of Light has forever turned into a starlight, and the two families have been declining step by step, but the God of Darkness has only disappeared for a few years, and then reappeared.

Obviously, the God of Light has not shown any signs of recovery.

Ten years ago, there were rumors of the revival of the God of Light, which was said to have been predicted by a cardinal who was good at astrology.However, it didn't take long for the star symbolizing the God of Light to become much more obscure, as if recovery had failed...

Closing his eyes and clearing away the messy thoughts, Linton opened his eyes and looked at Ann Lane: "Could you come up with an idea, how should we do it?"

--------

The ring on the little finger of his left hand suddenly gave off a slight icy feeling. Linton stretched out his right hand and pondered lightly for a couple of times, then penetrated his spiritual power and heard the voice from the opposite side.

"You'll just need to back out later." Anlan's voice sounded strangely low and calm, "You seem to know the other examiner? Bring him out together, and leave the rest to me."

Linton was silent for two seconds: "You should take your medicine tonight."

This is one of the reasons why Anlan followed him here, and there was indeed something going on at the Temple of Light, so the two of them came together.

"It's okay." Allen's voice suddenly brought his habitual smile again, as if he had put on his usual light smile, "Leave the next thing to me."

"I think, you should know that there are some things that are inconvenient for others to know..."

"I understand."

Linton expressed his understanding, then closed his eyes, and began to rest quietly.

He didn't go to watch the refining process of Haishizi. After all, this is the other party's privacy. It would be inappropriate to watch rashly.

More than half an hour later, looking at the last time point, Haishizi handed over a well-regulated sword in his hand to Joshua, and then returned to the front with the approved paper. Linton also took this opportunity to wipe the sword. Leaving through the crack of the door.

Behind the heavy wooden door that closed with the wind, half of Joshua Sam's face was buried in the shadows. The expression on his face was obscure, with a strange sense of gloom.

His two apprentices packed up the remaining materials and other things separately, and left the assessment room, leaving him alone in the room.

It's almost time to get off work, and the two apprentices have already greeted Josue, and they will leave directly after putting away their things.

The setting sun had already set, leaving only the dark blue sky and the moonlight rising at an unknown time.

Under the moonlight through the high-altitude transom, Joshua's face was strangely pale. He didn't pack up his things and leave as usual, but put his hands behind his back, and the wide magic robe covered his exposed skin. Silently staring at the spot of moonlight not far away.

"I know you're outside, so come in directly."

After a while, Joshua's voice suddenly sounded.

"Your Excellency is more sensitive than I imagined."

Anlan's voice sounded from the direction of the door, with a weird smile, it seemed gentle enough to make people fall asleep, and it seemed to be full of some kind of angry will.

Qiao Xiuer's voice was very calm: "It is obvious that the failure of the two contracts today must be the first to notice something wrong, and then he will do something to the second person who came to the assessment hands and feet."

He didn't say anything about Linton being here, because it was just speculation and there was no need to say it.

"In that case, Your Excellency is really bold."

Joshua's voice was calm: "So what? You have no evidence. No one can detect that something is wrong. Even the alchemy that warns of danger can only tell that there is danger, and cannot prove that I did it. In this way For one thing, the big family is afraid of prestige, so it is impossible to do anything to me, only a weak existence like you..."

What's more, the magic of talent transfer will not endanger life, and it is still a question whether the magic that detects life danger can be used.

"It won't be discovered? Because today's two contracts have already been destroyed by you, right?" Allen smiled softly, "Of course, I don't really care about this, and this is what I want .”

When Qiao Xiuer suddenly realized that the other party was not the person who was found by the two victims today, and turned his head suddenly, a strange light enveloped him.

In the milky white halo, Anlan's eyes sank, and the depths of his eyes were completely obscure and unclear.

"The ones who will be hurt by your various calculations are only the weak."

"The real strong don't need to calculate, only the weak can calculate the strong and the reason can't be calculated!"

Suddenly there was a magic staff in his hand, which many people called a coquettish bag. The long tip of the staff touched the ground, and a golden light suddenly began to bloom from the tail.

The golden light instantly enveloped the entire examination room. In the white and smoky world, as soon as Joshua raised his hand to chant a defensive magic circle, he felt that there were many invisible wind blades in the air.

In the middle of the strong wind, Anlan stood there with a smile on his face.
