Wizard: I can extract identities
Chapter 72 Trouble Arrives (Please read on and invest!)
At this time, Ximan suddenly seemed to think of something, and asked the maid behind him: "I remember your name is Arya?"
The blonde maid nodded, lowered her head and dared not look at Ximan, and said softly: "Yes, sir."
Arya is Ximan's personal maid. Arya has a sweet face, white skin like snow, a pair of black eyes like gems, and a few freckles on her face, but the freckles not only do not destroy her beauty, but also add a bit of playful temperament to her.
She is also the most beautiful in the whole manor. Ximan is satisfied with her not because of her beauty, but because she is very smart and can see her identity clearly.
After Ximan settled in the manor, the maids in the manor who have some beauty all flirted with him, which made Ximan very annoyed. Although those maids are beautiful, they don't interest Ximan.
Not to mention that they are all maids, who often need to work, their skin must not be very good, and their temperament is also much worse. Besides, Ximan is now a second-class wizard apprentice, with extremely strong mental power, and can clearly sense the large pores and rough skin on their bodies.
When wizard apprentices meditate, they will absorb elemental particles, which will have a positive effect on the apprentice's body. One of them is to shrink pores and make the skin more delicate and smooth.
Ximan's taste and aesthetics have been raised by Susan. Ordinary women are difficult to catch Ximan's eyes no matter how beautiful they are, but Arya always maintains a respectful attitude. As long as Ximan tells her to do something, she will always do it well and will never go beyond the rules, so she has become Ximan's most satisfied maid.
Suddenly, a hurried but subtle footsteps attracted Ximan's attention, and Kara came from a distance: "My lord, the city lord sent a letter to me and asked me to pass it to you."
Looking at Ximan in front of him, Kara looked respectful, lowered her head slightly, and handed over a letter in her hand.
Ximan did not take the letter, but asked directly: "I said, any letter inviting me to a banquet or something like that, I will reject it!"
"Sir, the messenger said that this is not a letter inviting you to a banquet, but it has something important to tell you." Kara explained carefully.
Ximan frowned, took the letter and opened it, and read it quickly, his face slightly ugly: "Prepare the carriage, I want to go to the City Lord's Mansion."
Ximan thought that he could spend these two years in peace, but he had just arrived in Sears for more than a month, and trouble came to him, so his mood was naturally not very good.
Seeing Ximan's face change, Kara became more cautious, nodded, and hurried away to prepare the carriage.
Soon, under Kara's preparation, a group of guards surrounded a luxurious carriage and walked towards the City Lord's Mansion.
As soon as Heman got off the carriage, Albert's butler came to greet him: "Lord Heman, the city lord is waiting for you in the hall, please follow me!"
After arriving at the place, Heman waved his hand and asked others to wait outside, and he followed the butler in.
When Albert saw Heman coming in, his eyes lit up and he smiled and greeted him: "Haha, Heman, I didn't expect you to come so soon, I thought you would not come out of the laboratory until the evening!"
"Who makes the laboratory the second home of wizards!" Heman responded to Albert's teasing, and then sat next to Albert.
Hearing Heman's words, Albert was stunned for a moment, then smiled and shook his head.
"By the way, you said that there are suspected traces of wizard apprentices in the city?" Heman sat in the reclining chair, picked up a cup of beans on the table and drank it, and asked Albert.
"This..." Albert hesitated for a moment before slowly speaking: "According to the reports from his subordinates during this period, more than 20 people have disappeared in Sears, with an average of several people missing every day. Although the missing people are all poor farmers, it has already caused a considerable impact."
"There are no signs of fighting or blood in the places where those farmers disappeared. It seems that they were kidnapped directly, and the murderer's strength is so strong that they have no time and ability to react at all."
"Oh? That's all?" Hearing this, Ximan immediately raised his eyebrows and looked up at Albert, revealing a look of doubt.
In this case, it is impossible to judge that it was the work of a wizard. The knight can easily kidnap those farmers. From this point alone, there is no way to confirm that the other party is a wizard.
"Have you found the bodies of those missing farmers?" Ximan asked again.
After all, the other party can't keep the farmers for nothing by kidnapping them. There must be some purpose. Only by finding the bodies of those farmers can we determine whether it was done by wizards.
"No." Albert shook his head.
"Since there is no body, how do we know who kidnapped him?" Ximan continued to ask.
Hearing Ximan's question, Albert sighed: "Of course there are more clues than these. Recently, the outside of Sears City is not safe. Several people reported that they heard huge beast roars outside the city, and some even saw giant beasts with their own eyes. I also sent people to investigate. Indeed, huge animal footprints were found at the scene. I also asked a wizard apprentice in the city to determine what animal the footprints belonged to."
"Based on his experience, those footprints were definitely not left by wild beasts, not even by strange beasts, but more like those left by demonized creatures."
At this point, Albert paused, and then continued: "The two events happened at about the same time. This is too coincidental. It seems like a wizard did it."
Heman did not respond to Albert's words, but fell into deep thought.
"What is the other party's intention in kidnapping the farmer?" Heman touched his chin and thought. If the other party was a wizard, then he kidnapped the farmer either to feed the demonized creatures or to conduct human experiments, and the latter possibility was obviously greater.
Thinking of this, Heman asked, "What does the giant beast look like?"
Albert thought carefully and recalled the words he had heard before: "It is very huge, about the same size as a cow, with black horns on its head, but at least three times larger than a cow, covered with black hard scales, with sharp bone spurs at the end of its tail, and sharp claws."
Heman narrowed his eyes, and quickly searched for records about demonized creatures in his memory, and soon thought of something: "Black-horned scaled cattle!"
The black-horned scaled cattle is very similar to what Albert described. It is a medium-sized demonized creature. When it grows up, its size is much larger than that of a cow. It has strong strength and defense. It is considered a relatively powerful one among medium-sized demonized creatures.
