There's definitely something wrong with this murder mystery game Chapter 802: 679 Silver City-State2

Chapter 802: Chapter 679 Silver City-State_2

The North is desolate and uninhabited, so there’s no need to be constantly secretive.

The Senior Officer glanced at his hair and eyes, a flicker of surprise crossing his face, then quickly perford a Holy Court courtesy.

An invite is an invite, respect is respect.

Each has its place.

Xu Shuo didn’t waste any ti either, scanning the surroundings before raising his right hand.

Cold magic energy swirled in his hand, with visible glimrs of cyan light flowing from all directions — a reaction only seen with large-scale magic.

A huge Magic Array ford in his hand, spreading patterns filled with profound mysteries, faintly emitting a sacred aura of the God of Light.

“You are…”

The sight left the Senior Officer sowhat startled and dubious.

The activity of the magic energy made him instinctively tense, his hand gripping the sword hilt at his side.

This was an innate precaution against crisis.

Xu Shuo said nothing, his expression calm and unchanged, his pale skin almost blending into the icy landscape.

The next mont, he casually tossed the intensely concentrated Magic Array outward.

Hum——

The wind and snow in the forest suddenly intensified!

As if struck by a blast of freezing air, the biting cold spread across the ground, climbing the trees, and rapidly encasing all the earth and plants in sight in a sheet of ice.

Tall trees swayed, then beca still in their most vivid mont, their ice-covered branches shimring with a light, crystal clear and stunningly beautiful.

The magic seed not to have frozen a forest.

But rather created a Crystal Forest.

The evening sunset pierced through the trees and leaves, casting a reflection on the glistening ice crystals, dazzling and eye-catching.

Xu Shuo nodded in satisfaction: “It’s good enough.”

If Sola returns to check the situation, she will probably understand how he escaped, so this precaution was rely to prevent her suspicions.

And the Senior Officer next to him.

He was already stiffened, his already stern face looking even more serious.

As the ice spread, he felt the sting on his feet, but the cold wave halted at his ankles just in ti.

He certainly didn’t think it was a lack of magical energy.

In fact, he hadn’t even responded to the sudden change, because it all happened in an instant.

The snowstorm hit abruptly, the cold spread quickly.

In the blink of an eye, the forest changed.

The Senior Officer seed to realize sothing, stiffly looking at the Bishop of Light beside him.

He had heard that the Church of Light’s mastery of magic was very high.

To imagine the true strength being so formidable, this power on the battlefield could even turn the tides, if not sweep across it solely.

No wonder the Bishop of Light asked him to clear out everyone else.

If his troops were still here, even if not entirely wiped out, there would definitely be substantial injuries.

After all, controlling magic energy to spare just one person is one thing, but to manage dozens? Even a Grand Magus would likely find it difficult to be so precise.

The Senior Officer couldn’t help but feel profound respect!

…

But the truth was not so.

Xu Shuo was simply too lazy to protect so many people.

Why bother? Rather than make an effort to split his focus, it was easier to have them all step aside.

After taking asures to prevent further problems, Xu Shuo followed the Senior Officer out of the Coniferous Forest.

Since his horse had unfortunately perished, a soldier offered his mount to Xu Shuo, while he made do by sharing a horse with a comrade.

“The Duke has already set up a banquet in the city to await you, so we will probably not stop for rest on the way. We should reach the Silver City-State by nightfall, please understand,” the Senior Officer sincerely said.

“No trouble.”

Xu Shuo was indifferent.

Regardless of who held the initiative in this situation, it truly didn’t matter to him; however, this action did sowhat reveal the disposition of the Duke of Silver on the other side.

He seed a bit like the Capital Commandant, only feeling secure when everything was under his own control.

As for the ambush set up in the Far North Mountain Range to wait for the Ice and Snow Elf on his orders a few nights ago, it was probably just a precaution.

Or maybe it was a asure taken after the other party evaluated the world background and conjectured the involvent of the Elf Clan. Pushing the boat with the current.

In any case, a very cautious person.

While approaching the Silver City-State.

Xu Shuo spotted the sa hawk hovering in the sky, and with his grey-graduating pupils, it was indeed the sa one.

In the feeble gaze of the Holy Pope, the white ice and snow land blended with the pale sky, seeming like an endless expanse at a distance.

It sowhat resembled snow blindness.

Therefore, even a hint of a darker color would stand out distinctly.

Moreover, under the light grey sunset, the black-grey hawk was still conspicuous as it constantly followed the troop.

When Xu Shuo looked up, he asked directly: “Is that your Duke’s pet?”

The Senior Officer beside him responded with so surprise, then honestly replied: “That’s Yue, it has grown up with the Duke since it was young. It’s the Duke’s Blood Pact Beast.”

Xu Shuo’s gaze shifted: “Magical Beast?”

“Yes, Yue is a special kind of Magical Beast.”

After saying this, the Senior Officer averted his gaze and fell silent, signaling the end of the subject.

Xu Shuo didn’t inquire further, lost in thought.
