Chapter 696 Arrival of investigators
Half an hour ago,
Phill, April, May, and Hank are sitting down and talking to one person. The person is none other than Theo.
Theo is a lot younger compared to the middle-aged team. He was in his early thirties. He has green hair and eyes.
His physique is a learner with a tan skin tone. He is also carrying a wicked smile on his face.
"I didn\'t expect this from you guys," Theo said in a serious tone.
May and April are quickly displeased.
May refused by saying, "You broke the promise first. If you had arrived on time yesterday. We wouldn\'t have selected the newcomer."
April echoed the same opinion by adding, "It\'s your fault for not honoring your own words."
"Wait a second!"
"It\'s not the time for bickering. We need to figure out what to do next?" Team leader Phil said.
"Harumph!"
"Just kick out the newcomer. What is there to figure it out about?" Theo said with a snort.
"We have planned something," Hank, who was staying silent, opened his mouth at this time.
"Plan?"
"What plan?" After saying that he looked at the team leader. He soon realized they were planning something else without him.
Team leader Phill\'s expression turned solemn. Because Theo was a pillar of the team. In most of the adventurer missions, he had taken care of the enemy.
Also, Theo\'s magic was special. The enemy had no answer on how to respond.
Perceiving Theo\'s gaze. Phill let out a small sigh before starting to explain.
A few minutes later,
Theo\'s mouth curved into a cunning smile.
"You guys dared to use the 2nd entrance. Do you have any death wish?"
"Even if you are planning to use him as a scapegoat. Don\'t forget the dangers after that," Theo said with a smile.
May and April looked at each other. They didn\'t expect to hear pessimistic words from Theo.
Phill\'s eyes flickered. He saw through Theo\'s thoughts.
"Do you have any other good ideas?" He asked directly.
"Ha...Ha...Ha..."
"Team leader, you are as smart as I thought," Theo said with a laugh. Then he sat up straight.
"I do have a good plan. But before that I want to meet the newcomer," Theo said.
Hearing April and May sighed in relief. Even Hank nodded his head in agreement. Without Theo\'s magic, it\'s difficult for them to face the enemy.
"I\'m going to get him," Hearing that, May stood up and said.
A few minutes later,
Room,
I walked out of the shower a few minutes later. Then I changed into the adventurer dress. After wearing a mask, I stepped out of the room.
May had come a few minutes ago to get me.
"What was his name?"
"Theo isn\'t?" I said in my heart. Then I started walking downstairs. Half the way, I saw a person with green hair sitting and talking to everyone.
Is it him? A quick gleam flashes in my eyes.
On the other hand, Theo also noticed someone was appearing. A wicked smile appeared on his face.
The next second, he said, "Hi, I\'m Theo."
Hearing that I didn\'t show any changes in my expression. I began to reply politely, "Hi, I\'m Vincent. Nice to meet you."
I deliberately avoided telling my last name.
The team leader Phill doesn\'t want any drama to happen. So he interjected by saying, "We are discussing you. Theo is back in our team. But that doesn\'t mean that we are ditching you. We decided to take you with us as well."
I showed a surprised expression outside. But I sneered inside. "They still haven\'t given up their plan of using me," I said in my heart.
Theo probed the newcomer\'s strength. Seeing that he was just a level-4 wizard, he laughed in his heart. Even the team members don\'t know Theo\'s true strength.
At the same time, I smiled in my heart. While Theo was accessing me. I too saw through his strength.
"Level-5 wizard?" I raised my eyebrows in surprise.
"What a cunning guy! He is not different from me," I said in my heart. It\'s just that his teammates are dull compared to him.
Then I changed the topic by asking, "When are we leaving?"
Phill sighed in relief. Nothing serious had happened.
"We are going to leave tonight," Theo said before the leader.
Phill didn\'t question him. He agreed as well.
May, April, and Hank stayed silent. But in their heart, they knew it was going to be the last night for Vincent.
After the discussion, everyone left. Phill and Theo left the mansion to buy the necessary things. May, April, and Hank went back to their mansion.
Seeing that I decided to return to my room as well.
...
Bloodline Hall:
The fat elder is sitting down in his office. Looking at the contact names on the communication watch.
"What are they doing right now?" He said in his heart.
He knew the family elders had entered the city on the last day. Since they were searching up until last night. He thought they would call him if there was any news.
But there were no calls so far.
When he tried to contact one of the leading leaders.
The call was quickly connected.
"Elder, what is going on?" The fat elder asked.
From the other end, a deep voice came.
"Master, we weren\'t able to find his whereabouts. He seems to have disappeared out of thin air."
Hearing that fat elder frowned. He got the news from the Taboo Hall anonymously. Vincent did not seem to be leaving the city.
The city was especially under restriction now. It\'s not easy to hide your movements.
"Did you guys check out the border areas?" He asked again.
From the other side, a long sigh came.
"Master, I don\'t know but the police wizards are silently watching our movements. I guess our strength has been exposed," The elder sounded pessimistic.
Hearing the fat elder frown. He is aware of the news. The police wizards are on high alert.
But he didn\'t want to hear any excuses. So he said, "Elder, pay attention to the border. He has to leave the city somehow."
Hearing the bloodline elder obeyed.
...
Beluz City\'s police force,
The Police Head Terry received high-ranking wizards from other cities. They came here to investigate the appearance of an unknown wizard.
The team consists of 5 members. The captain was a level-8 wizard. The other members are level-7 wizards.
In the building, the investigators are dressed in police uniforms. The only difference is that they have more badges compared to Terry.
The level-8 wizard was wearing a pointy hat and black trench coat on top of the uniform. His name is Paul. He didn\'t even take a look at Terry and walked into his room directly.
His gaze then fell on the desk. Terry on the other side was terrified. The other officers are waiting outside. They didn\'t step into the room.
"You come here," Paul\'s voice reached Terry\'s ears.
The next second, he broke out in a cold sweat. He is feeling unknown pressure from the level-8 wizard.
He then walks into the room.
"Elder?" He said in a low tone.
"Tell me what you saw that day," Paul asked directly. Though he had read the reports. He wants to hear it from him.
Terry started to explain slowly. The officers who are standing outside are also listening to the conversations.
A few minutes later,
Captain Paul\'s eyes gleamed with a twinkle. It\'s unclear whether the attacker was from a white organization or an evil organization.
If it\'s an evil organization, their investigation would be easier. But if it\'s a white organization, things are going to be difficult. A complex glint appeared in his eyes before it disappeared.
"Alright," After saying that he turned towards his men.
He then said, "You guys can start your investigation."
Hearing that four officers left the place right away.
Terry was scared sh!t. He thought the elder was going to take out his anger on him.
Terry\'s action didn\'t go unnoticed under Paul\'s eyes.
"What about your friend?"
"Did he find out anything?" Paul asked.
"Friend of mine?" He muttered to himself.
Then he realized the elder was talking about Leroy.
Seeing the stunned expression of Terry.
"Looks like you have realized. Did the Adventurer Union guys tell you anything?" Paul asked.
"How does he know?" Terry was terrified in his heart. Not many people know that he has a good relationship with Leroy.
Then he realized that he was being monitored as well. He gulped his saliva in fear before shaking his head.
"He didn\'t contact me after that," Terry said.
Paul revealed a smile before saying, "Looks like that adventurer union wants to know from us. So they must be showing a wait-and-watch attitude."
Terry wasn\'t surprised. He knows about Leroy\'s character. Then he looked at the elder and said, "I\'m going to ask him whether he knows anything new."
Hearing that Paul nodded his head before walking out of the room. Then he flew away from the office building in a blink of an eye.
"Phew!"
"Level-8 wizards are something else. It\'s not easy to strike up a conversation with them," Terry said in his heart.
