Chapter 537 537 The first
Floating city, absolute balance.
Margaret Palace.
An old mage with blue skin, holding a light golden crystal staff in his hand, slowly walked into the palace.
"How long has Margaret been missing?" The mage's face was calm, he looked around and asked.
"It has been a while since the patrolman said he was going to investigate the disappearance of the cargo ship. It has been months since he left the floating city." In the palace, a petite young girl with a translucent body appeared in the air and responded respectfully to the old master.
"You are the Zhiling of this palace. You should know the trajectory of her last route, right?" the old mage asked in a deep voice.
"I'm sorry, I don't know." The young girl replied, "The inspector specially closed his movement track recorder before leaving. I have no right to view and record." The young girl replied.
"Waste!" The old mage's face turned cold.
"His Excellency Lucian, she is just a wise spirit. The most urgent thing is to find the guy who has experienced large-scale fluctuations around him."
A tall and thin man with gray and black all over appeared behind the old master.
"According to remote estimates, the energy level fluctuations at that time had reached the highest peak of the immortal level."
"Is the level eight? It's really good. Margaret died without any wickedness." The old mage's eyes became even colder. "What does the prophecy say?"
"There is still nothing to be found there, but based on the investigation of the reasoning traces, we have confirmed that Margaret had received a warning from Master Liu Chi-chan before departure. The purpose of her trip must be related to Master Liu Chi-chan, and the two must be related." The tall and thin man replied.
"Liu Chi has newly accepted a disciple. It is said that several of his companions and friends have some conflicts with the inspector Margaret." The man continued.
"Is that child named Ku Chan? He has good qualifications and character. Unfortunately, he stands on the opposite side of us." The old wizard Lucian turned around and looked at the empty palace.
After being silent for a long time, he turned around.
"If you dare to attack and kill the inspector nearby, you will be extremely guilty and must be severely punished. Start with Liu Chixuan's side."

"I always feel a little restless these days."
Inside the Heihei Ling, Yu Hong and Quanhe sat opposite each other and ate the side dishes they had made to serve.
"If the spirit reaches our level, if you practice both magic and magic strong enough, you will spontaneously have a premonition of some unfavorable things in the future." Quan He explained with rich experience.
"So, I might encounter something unfavorable to me?" Yu Hong frowned, but he thought carefully that he could never find any possibility of making a problem in the surrounding area.
"If you feel light, sometimes people and things that are connected to you and value will react when something happens." Quan He continued.
"This" Yu Hong frowned, and the first thing he thought of was the chain reaction of the floating city caused by killing Margaret.
Margaret's disappearance is first of all, and it takes a certain buffer time to be discovered, because as a Level 6 Austrian, she often goes out. It is estimated that she will not be able to find out about her dereliction of duty after a period of time, and thus start a missing investigation.
He told Quan He this guess.
"I'm worried that the floating city might affect Ku Chan and the others." Yu Hongmo said softly.
"I'm hesitating, then I'll just go and take a look." Quan He whispered, "With the master and the others as their backing, go and take a look, and even take everyone over, it's a good way."
"What you said is reasonable." Yu Hong nodded.
Now his cultivation level has broken through to the late stage of foundation building, and his true energy has been chasing the Tailing Art without being sealed. Go and check one or two more and you can feel much more at ease.
Yu Hong immediately stuffed the rice into his mouth a few times, put down the bowl and stood up.
"No further ado, I'll go and ask for leave from Master and the others."
He felt a strong whim in his heart. When he reached his level, once he felt this way, there would definitely be problems.
Hurriedly went out and teleported to Wanxue Palace. Yu Hong told the teacher about his feelings.
"Has Xuankongyi and Tiandunyi both refined and fused?" Yu Xuezi asked.
"It has been refined and fused." Yu Hong nodded. He refined and fused these two basic magic weapons that he had just released.
"Then go." Yu Xuezi nodded, "Last time your senior brother and sister gave you a talisman, this time you."
"This time I won't bother my senior brothers and sisters. I'll go there by myself." Yu Hong said.
"I don't bother them, I just have to be my teacher, right?" Yu Xuezi was helpless. "Since you know that you may be in danger, will your teacher not react at all?"
"Master, my disciples don't mean that way." Yu Hong said quickly.
"What do you mean?" Yu Xuezi glared at her eyes, "Okay, stop talking nonsense." He pointed at Yu Hong with one hand.
Swish!
A little light golden rune is in the flash of the big eyebrows.
"Okay. Go, if you encounter danger, just shout." Yu Xuezi reminded her a few words, then waved her hand to let Yu Hong go out.
Yu Hong remembered the mantra and felt the increasingly rapid throbbing in his heart. He immediately did not dare to neglect and quickly retreated.
Back to the safe house, he finished cleaning up a few times, and went to visit his senior brother and sister, and then activated the Black Spirit, escaped into the depths of the wind and disappeared. *

Os Academy in the Floating City.
General Office of the President.
Liu Chixuan stared at the Ao Mage who was trespassing in with a bad expression.
Among them is the old master Lucian who entered Margaret Palace before.
"Master Lucian, even if you are a member of the Nine Rings, trespassing into the private realm of a high-level mage is seriously violating Article 7 of the Absolute Regulations of the Floating City! The mage's private space is sacred and inviolable!"
The old monk's face was calm, as if he had not heard the warning, and he slowly paced in the office, as if he was inspecting the territory.
"Margaret has been missing for a while, do you know?" He suddenly spoke.
"The inspector is missing?" Liu Chi explained the seriousness of the problem. Margaret is the confidant of Lucian in front of him, and is a member of his power.
The Lucian faction is not weak in the Floating City, but not strong, so the power controlled by a patrol chief is not insignificant to him.
As faction leader, Lucian must respond equally after discovering that Margaret is missing to appease the rest of his subordinates. This is a necessary approach to gathering people's hearts.
Liu Chixuan's mind flashed with a variety of countermeasures in an instant. After understanding the other party's purpose, it would be much easier to think about countermeasures.
Although Lucian is a great arcane in the ninth level and a member of the Supreme Council, there is also a member of the same ninth level MP standing behind him. It is already considered overstepping the line for the other party to go straight to Os Academy.
"You don't have to worry. My trip is just to investigate all the clues that Margaret last contacted during his lifetime. After all, I am absolutely a balance. A dignified patrolman disappeared and died. If the truth cannot be found, it will also be a huge blow to the prestige of the entire floating city." Lucian said calmly.
He was not sad about Margaret's death, but was more irritable. His many plans include Margaret's tasks and roles. This time, the participation of the inspector's position is missing, and the subsequent series of impacts need to be re-determined.
Compared with the other nine-level arcane masters, he is still young and has a shallow foundation. There are still many people staring at him closely. If this treatment is not perfect and strong enough, it will cause a lot of unnecessary trouble in the future.
The great arcane who is opposite to his own ideas and factions will not watch him handle everything smoothly.
"Okay, I believe that Councillor Lucian can give me a fair attitude." Liu Chixuan said coldly.
"That's good, call your student Ku Chan over." Lucian nodded.
He could understand Liu Chixuan's anger, but this was a time difference. The person behind Liu Chixuan was now entangled in miscellaneous matters and could not come immediately. So in order to take this opportunity to find the clue as soon as possible, he personally led the team to inquire.
"good!"
Liu Chixuan's face turned pale, picked up the communication crystal on the table, and whispered a few words.
After a while, Ku Chan pushed the door and entered, holding a stack of spell notes in his hand.
"Teacher, are you calling me?" He saw Liu Chixuan with an ugly face when he entered the door, and his heart immediately jumped, and then he saw Lucian with a smiling face.
“This is”
Liu Chixuan reached out and was about to introduce Lucian's identity.
At this moment, Lucian suddenly pointed.
Swish!
"No need to introduce it, just come with me."
A little purple light lit up at his fingertips, and the light quickly expanded, turning into a huge purple silk screen, which suddenly enveloped the dry Zen.
The next moment, Ku Chan's entire body of magic power was sealed, his body was entangled with a wire mesh, shrinking rapidly, turning into a ball and flying towards Lucian's hand.
"Mr. Lucian! You!" Liu Chixuan was shocked and raised his staff. A dazzling golden halo lit up from under his feet and spread in all directions, activating the defensive array in the entire office.
"Spell Counter." Lucian's staff was paused, and instantly, a circle of transparent ripples spread and exploded with him as the center, completely destroying the surrounding golden magic circle.
"I will take Ku Chan back to assist in the investigation first. Even if Liu Xiran comes in person, I will strictly follow the laws and regulations!" He grabbed the purple light ball that shrank Ku Chan with one hand, turned around and left.
"Lucian, suddenly ran to my place and captured my disciples. Are you going to openly turn against Os Academy?" After going out, countless golden lights outside quickly landed from the sky, condensing into a fuzzy human form composed of electric current.
"Liu Xiran? You reacted quickly enough. But you are far away from the front line, and you can't stop me now!" Lucian said lightly. "As both members of the parliament, who did this matter? The truth can be hidden from ordinary mages, but we can't hide it from us."
"So what? If you fail to take action, you will be killed instead. You, a backstage person, have to help the aftermath personally. Are you trying to bully the small? " Liu Xiran said coldly.
"For us, the traces of time and space are clear at a glance. You can check what the identity of the murderer who took action is. In exchange, even if I catch one of their people as compensation, I am already magnanimous." Lucian said in a low voice.
"You don't go to catch the murderer, but you are the one who came to catch me. Are you planning to fight the two factions when I come back?" Liu Xiran raised his voice.
"I arrested people because the relationship between this person and the murderer is closest. I can use this to cause you to come, and you won't hurt your disciple. As for whether to start a war, I'll talk about it when you come back! Now, a mere clone can't stop me." Lucian raised his hand and pointed, and suddenly Liu Xiran's human figure in front of him exploded and disappeared.
Next second. The golden light beside him lit up, exploded like a bubble.
After the golden light dimmed, the person had disappeared from the spot, leaving only Liu Chixuan and others rushing out and the roar of the mage kept ringing.
