Novel Bin Chapter 27: You're Hiding Someone?
Chapter 27: You're Hiding Someone?
The burly man who was held up still didnt understand the situation when in almost the next second, he was instantly thrown by the huge hand.
Bang!
The sound of landing suddenly rang out, making everyone present shudder in their hearts.
Before they could say anything, Victor slightly lifted his head, his cold eyes seemed to pierce their hearts like steel needles.
Get lost.
As soon as the words fell, the little brothers panicked and ran away completely.
From beginning to end, they didnt even dare to fight back.
After they all escaped, Victor retracted the lava giant hand.
This amazing arm seemed to melt into Victors coat, completely blending in.
After doing this, he turned around and glanced at the trembling manager, saying coldly,
Im here to pick up the horse.
He immediately understood Victors intention, shakily stood up straight from the counter, and sized up the man in front of him.
Youhow do you prove this is your horse? Proveprove your identity!
Victor looked at him appreciatively, seeming to approve of the others courage, and said lightly,
Victor Clayvinna.
The person who left this horse should have left this name.
Upon hearing this, the manager carefully checked the register and quickly nodded, Nono problem. You can take it away.
Then he took out a money pouch from under the counter and handed it to Victor.
The knight deposited 5,000 ducats here. This is the remaining portion after deducting boarding fees. Take it.
Victor didnt stand on ceremony either. He took the money pouch, weighed it, and directly put it away.
5,000 ducats
It could only be said that Gwen had no sense when it came to money.
Spending so much to board a horse was enough to feed this horse for half a lifetime.
Victor went into the stable, stroked the sturdy white horse.
It looks like youve been treated well these past few days.
The white horse stretched out its head and rubbed Victors hand affectionately.
He stroked the horses sleek coat for a while before leading it out and skillfully mounting it.
Veega lowered her head and said to Victor on his shoulder,
With your current strength, it would only take a few teleportation circles to get back to the capital. Why insist on riding a horse?
Veega wasnt exaggerating. Victor could now teleport freely within a hundred kilometers using teleportation magic.
Because he had already entered the ranks of Saint Magus.
Twenty-nine, fourth order.
Had anyone in the history of the Empire ever achieved this?
Hearing Veegas inquiry, Victor chuckled lightly.
This horse isnt mine.
I borrowed it, so I have to return it.
After the last battle with Calamity of Fire, Victor gained an enormous amount of experience points.
Although his previous experience was basically enough for him to become a fourth order mage.
But Victor had always controlled his experience level, not rashly advancing.
Until he fought with Guldon, the experience gained was too much, causing the players own experience bar to burst.
Victor ClayvinnaLv41
HP: 2000/2000
MP: 14800/15000
He continuously leveled up twice, with his max MP increasing by 10,000 compared to before.
This seemingly very powerful attribute did not make Victor arrogant.
Level 40 was just the beginning.
His current strength was still inferior to the original Victor, the boss in the second chapter of the game.
But at the very least, he no longer needed to worry about being controlled by others in the capital on the surface.
Not to mention his gains were not just leveling up.
A red stripe flashed across Victors coat.
That was the emblem of Guldons power.
He had absorbed Guldons Fire Origin, obtaining some of Guldons abilities.
One of them was the solidification of the fire element.
Victor could turn fire magic into lava-like substantial intense heat, even solidifying it into magma.
The lava giant hand from before was casually solidified by him using magic.
At the same time, he could also attach the Fire Origin to himself, greatly enhancing his resistance to fire elements.
Most importantly, he could freely shape it into whatever form he wanted.
The coat he was especially fond of was destroyed in the battle with Guldon.
So now, Victor used Guldons Fire Origin to attach it to himself, forming the coat he was currently wearing.
This was simply a waste of resources.
But for Victor, this look was just right.
Strength was just for a version.
But being cool was for a lifetime.
I can understand your obsession with the coat, but
Veega dropped a small exquisite hourglass pendant from her wings, saying to Victor:
Can you explain to me what exactly this thing is?
Victor took it and glanced at it.
Item Name: Exiled Epimetheus (World Class Item)
Nature: Single-use consumable
Effect: Disrupts causality, able to transform specific time causalities that should have occurred in time.
Victor just glanced at it, and the items description appeared before his eyes.
World class items could only be obtained by players who made world class achievements in the game.
Of course, Victor had never obtained one before.
Each world class item had its own unique and amazing effect.
They existed disregarding the rules of the world.
World class items could only be used once, and would vanish immediately after use.
Also, world items had binding properties, and could only be used by someone recognized by the item. Even if others obtained it, they would not be able to activate it.
This was also why Veega could not understand it at all.
Killing the world boss Guldon for the first time was definitely a world class achievement in the game.
Not to mention he solo killed it.
The world will would not make sense if it didnt give him a world class item.
After Victor woke up, this item automatically appeared in his player backpack.
Out of curiosity, Veega borrowed the pendant and said she wanted to study it.
But obviously, she didnt find out anything about it.
Victor took the hourglass pendant and put it around his neck.
Didnt you already know what this thing was?
Veega looked at Victor suspiciously, but he maintained a poker face and replied:
I dont know.
Hearing Victors perfunctory reply, Veega was so angry her teeth itched.
To be honest, she was very envious of Gwens ability to see through lies now, and wished she had it too.
Victor glanced at her and said sarcastically:
Dont even think about it, youre not righteous at all.
Veega wished she could peck Victors head into pieces. She said in dissatisfaction:
No wonder people dislike you so much.
..
The capital was especially quiet at night, with moonlight quietly climbing onto the rooftops.
Outside the balcony of Victors study, a figure passed through the moonlight and climbed in through the window into the study.
Lia leaned against the desk, looking at tonights moon, not knowing what she was thinking.
Leon jumped in, flipped back his hood, revealing his sharp ears.
Miss Lia, I tailed Duke Rivierres butler for a week, and can confirm the money transaction was done by the dukes butler.
The butler had no motive to provoke the Clayvinna family, so I believe this was on Duke Rivierres orders.
After hearing Leons report, Lia smiled lightly, with a hint of disdain at the corners of her mouth.
The moonlight on her face made her look especially cold.
Duke Rivierre is already in dire straits himself, whether he did that thing or not no longer matters.
Leon was puzzled to hear this and asked, What? What happened?
Lia stroked the ebony desk and said slowly,
Some time ago the mages who went to Mount Vesuvius collectively petitioned the Emperor to impeach Duke Rivierre.
The reason being, the Duke wanted to kill all the mages present.
Upon hearing her explanation, Leon couldnt understand it.
How could Duke Rivierre do something so reckless that would damage the royal reputation?
But thats what he did.New novel chaptš¯’†rs are published on novel(b)in(.)com
Duke Rivierre has admitted that as the leader of war magic, he stopped maintaining the magic array.
If the volcano had fully erupted then, all the mages present would have died.
Leon was a little confused: But didnt the volcano not erupt in the end? Why did they still impeach the Duke?
Lia could only smile and shake her head helplessly when she heard this, saying, You really dont understand the human world.
In the eyes of these noble mages, of course life is only secure when in their own hands.
And Duke Rivierre, whom they trusted the most, betrayed them at the most critical moment. Regardless of whether the volcano erupted or not, Duke Rivierres failure to continue maintaining the array was already a grave sin.
They just got lucky this time that the volcano seemed to be stopped by some special power. But what if the volcano had really erupted?
A hint of brilliance flashed in Lias eyes.
At that time, the dead would not only be the mages, but also the tens of thousands of innocent people living below the mountain.
Leon suddenly understood, but Lia still had the leisure to joke at this time.
Its just a pity that these mages were busy impeaching the Duke, and not one came to me to buy potions.
I was hoping to earn a good sum before Victor came back.
Leon noticed Lias lowered eyelids, it seemed she really felt regretful about it.
Leon opened her mouth, wanting to say something more, but stopped herself.
So Lia reached out and knocked on her head, smiling and said:
You wanted to say, dont let me wait any longer right? That Victor definitely wont come back?
Leon didnt say anything, but her eyes had already betrayed her thoughts.
There is a saying that circulates among humans, good people die young, evil lingers for a thousand years.
Someone like Victor is the latter. Unless someone brings his corpse right in front of me, I will never believe he is dead.
Never.
Leon still wanted to say something to persuade Lia, when suddenly, she sensed a strong yet familiar aura appearing at the door.
Her ears twitched, and Lia noticed itit was the signal that an elf sensed someone approaching.
Its Victors aura! Hes back!
See?
Lia smiled radiantly.
I said he wouldnt die.
Leon lowered her head, putting her hood back on. She nodded at Lia.
Concealing her figure, she maintained an aura that would absolutely not be noticed and leapt straight out the window.
At this moment, the servants surprised voice sounded from outside the door.
Master, youyoure back?
Mm, take this horse down and feed it well.
Yes! Ill go do it right away!
Along with the sound of footsteps getting closer and then suddenly stopping, the study door was pushed open.
Lia leaned against the desk, looking at Victor with a smile.
Welcome home.
Victor expressionlessly nodded, just walked into the study, looked left and right.
Finally, his gaze fixed on Lia.
Youre hiding someone?
Lias smile froze, then gradually collapsed.
