Archmage Daily Research Report

This is the central city area. The people stationed here are not ordinary sheriffs, but a team of elites who stand out from the Magical Corps. They have a fashionable name that is very popular among young people—Shield of Nova—yes, that’s the official name. .

Judging from the attire, the ones surrounding us at this moment are the members of the Nova Shield. The team leader seems to have a high rank. They are wearing long windbreakers that seem to have no deterrent effect, but I know that the materials of the clothes are all high-level magic patterns Cloth—this is the work of the research institute; they wear mechanical exoskeletons on their arms, can extend high-frequency electric knives and magic guns, hold magic hand cannons, and shoulder-mounted small heavy cannons on their shoulders.

——I also know those weapons, but I think Mel will be more familiar with them, because they are his masterpieces. In the first year of accepting the invitation of the Federation, he improved this equipment for the elite guards, and the power of the optimized weapon system Large, low energy consumption, and he made a very exquisite guardian magic array to replace the bulky explosion-proof shield. The current members of Nova Shield are all mobile humanoid weapons, and they are beautiful in appearance, so they have gained many fans. It is trying to find opportunities to take pictures with them.

The officer leading the group obviously recognized Mel right away and looked extremely shocked.

"Aren't you Mr. Archmage Madsen? Why are you here!" He was surprised, but he didn't put down the gun in his hand, "We have detected that someone is using dangerous black magic here, in order to prevent large-scale damage... Uh, I didn't expect it to be you."

All the soldiers were still wary of us, and didn't let us go because they recognized Mel, but their expressions were not so ferocious.

... Oh, no!

Both Mel and I came to our senses immediately. Although the officer was obviously exaggerating, we did not cause large-scale damage. Theoretically speaking, a real large-scale dangerous spell is enough to cover the entire capital, but... Mel and I realized at the same time , We are immersed in the beauty of magic, forgetting that this is not a laboratory, this is a library!

For a library that has been carefully maintained all year round, the damage Mel and I have caused is indeed more than the damage caused by the noisy children on weekends.

"We are the Guardians of the Oslant Federal Capital City - Nova Shield. According to the "Public Security Management Regulations" and the "Arcane Convention", the two of you are suspected of using dangerous spells to destroy the Central Library, so—"

He paused, twitched his heroic thick eyebrows, and yelled in a serious manner: "You are under arrest!"

Mel: "Ah..."

Me: "...um..."

The captain stretched out his hand, and said solemnly: "Please hand over the magic weapon, spell book, space storage device and communication equipment, please cooperate with the law enforcement, any non-cooperative behavior will aggravate your crime. "

Mel and I stood surrounded, surrounded by all kinds of mess after being ravaged by spells, it was indeed our masterpiece, the wooden table that turned into cinders was the most pitiful victim, and the rest of the tables, chairs, and vases were also in miserable condition It's different, I can't bear to see it, at this time, the fireworks-like spells in our minds are gradually quieting down, and reason makes us feel a little annoyed-as a mage, it is so important to keep calm at all times!But... alas...

Right now, we did cause some damage to this lovely building, there is a slight burnt smell in the air, there are two members of Nova Shield holding up the camera to take detailed pictures of each damage, and a small magic wizard Man-machines are recording the law enforcement process above our heads, and our "criminal facts" are hard evidence.

We are mages, and mages should be responsible for their spells.

"terribly sorry."

We spoke almost simultaneously.

"The Central Library of the Holy Light City has a long history, and it is a veritable temple of knowledge." Mel said to the captain apologetically, "This is my first visit here, not to mention meeting an excellent mage, so I'm so excited."

I sighed: "Yeah, me too. I have benefited a lot from learning spells with Mr. Madsen... Especially today it is rare to be so clean. We are willing to accept punishment for hurting such a precious land."

Due to our cooperation (of course we will cooperate with law enforcement, the black mage is really not equal to the evil big devil!) - and Mephisto Madsen's reputation, the members of Nova Shield did not make things difficult for us too much , They took away the rings on me and Mel's fingers... Even if two of them were just decorations, Mel had other magical ornaments on his body, he removed them one by one, and the spell notes of the two of us were taken away by Mel Put it into the space ring and hand it over to the captain. Mel explained:

"We all have some protective spells on our notes to protect important privacy. I'm worried that someone will touch them by mistake, so please don't mind me putting them in the space ring."

Given that Mel's identity as a black mage is an open secret, no one disputes it, and no one wants his family members to receive a pension for his death in the service because of accidentally touching a black mage's spell, especially when this black mage Under the premise of a good attitude of pleading guilty.

The captain carefully put away our spell items, and continued to ask: "Communication equipment, including mobile phones and personal smart computers, small robots are also counted, please turn them off and hand them in."

Mel spread his hands: "I don't."

I said, "Me too."

In order to prevent people from disturbing me, I deliberately left my mobile phone in the apartment.

The captain obviously found it inconceivable, he looked us up and down—robes are also magic items, and now Mel and I are only wearing shirts and trousers in an unseemly manner, obviously it is easy to judge whether there is something hidden.As far as I know, the smallest holographic smart computer also needs to be worn on the wrist, or there are some more expensive models that can be made into rings, but Mel and I are as clean as brand new notebooks, except for the brain. Knowledge, we don't have anything to own right now.

"Okay." The captain nodded seriously, "Forgive my offense, please extend your hand."

Well, technically he was kind enough not to be offensive - but then I realized he was referring to his next move, the clunky Arcatraz being placed on our wrists - which was As I said before, this is almost unique, the only piece of ancient runic knowledge that has been passed down to the present day and is still used in real life-oh my god, the adjectives in my sentence are so long Yes... I think it has also been combined with magic technology, and it has become the current magic-proof handshake for modern law enforcement agencies and the army, and the standard equipment for imprisoning mages.

Uh, I have to say, this thing is really a torture tool!

Its main body is a high-composite metal plate, and the runes are engraved on the metal plate, but this plate also has a sandwich layer, which is the result of modern magic technology-the induction electric shock device, which will activate the sensor for sensing spiritual power after wearing it. Nano-robots, once the program of these robots detects that the wearer is trying to break through the forbidden rune, they will release a momentary low-frequency current to punish the wearer. As long as the evil mage is put on this, he will immediately be docile like a lamb. Even if he doesn't know how to obey for a while, the electric shock device will teach him how to become docile.

And my only feeling is - it's too heavy, my wrist is sore and sore, it's going to fall off!

Mel's complexion is also very bad. Any normal mage is not good at bearing weight, especially our hands that need to be carefully maintained. Bearing such a weight is really one of the scariest things I have ever encountered in my life!

But this is not over yet!

The Nova Shield took out some weird things again, and Mel and I were shocked almost at the same time.

They wrapped our fingers with a pair of objects that were also made of metal—five connected cylinders separated our hands and fingers and bound them individually. Only a little fingertips could be exposed from those iron objects.

——This kind of stuff is like double insurance, preventing mages from using gestures to cast spells, I guess.

I can understand the truth, but, my God, this feels terrible!

I originally thought that the captain of the Nova Shield was too kind and not in line with his vicious professional positioning, but now I decided to change my judgment. Using such cruel methods to torture the well-maintained hands of an excellent mage is really extremely vicious!

Uh, no, hold back, calm down, restrain yourself!Don't turn him into a goblin on impulse!Not to mention that I have learned my lesson, the green-skinned and hairless little monster is so ugly that I can't eat for a few days, and if I turn the captain of Nova Shield into a goblin, I will definitely be on the most wanted list, I Will be classified as an evil mage, and then the brave men who came to crusade against me will follow suit!

Absolutely not, I still have so many good books to read!

While adjusting the instruments of torture that tormented me—fortunately, he still had a bit of conscience to ensure that my fingers would not be strangled to death from ischemia, he explained to me politely: “In the past, belts were commonly used , hemp rope or iron chains to bind the hands of mages, you must know something about these histories, so please forgive me, this is an experience from ancient times, and it is also our rule, although I personally think that banning magic is enough... But I You have to follow the regulations, and the higher-ups are worried that if you don't tie your hands, you will run thousands of miles away with your fingers!"

"No." I said, "The effective distance of teleportation is the visible range, unless the mage's eyesight is good enough to see the target place thousands of miles away, and there are no obstacles in the middle."

Mel added: "Transparent obstacles are fine, such as glass windows. A mage can teleport from inside to outside the house, as long as he can see it-what he sees is what he reaches. Those who cannot see the destination are teleportation spells. Most teleportation types All spells need to reserve positioning runes in advance as anchors... Oh my god, did you hang a dragon on my hand, it's so heavy."

"That's right." I nodded, and here I agree with both his statement about teleportation magic and the rhetoric behind him, and then I said: "So the teleportation distance of elf mages will be farther than that of human mages."

"Yes, the eyes of elves can indeed see thousands of miles away." Mel agreed, and then said, "But since the two of us are purebred human beings, you don't need to worry about us teleporting to the next city .”

"Even the elves can't do it anymore. The buildings in the capital are too tall and they are all blocking them."

"Well, to put it another way, we won't teleport to the top of the TV tower or the advertising airship, don't worry." Mel assured.

The captain fell into silence, just like the others I was talking to, who usually go into a steady silence after they've chatted with me about the weather, lunch, whatever, because they didn't actually understand what I was doing say what.

They finally adjusted, checked carefully for a while, and thought it was safe, and because of our good attitude (or Mel's reputation is too high), we were not put on the shackles, (It may also be that the members of Nova Shield feel Not necessary, but I think the captain hesitated a bit, and changed his mind after seeing Mel's dangerous face) Thanks to all the good gods for that.

The captain breathed a sigh of relief and waved his hand: "Take me away!"
