Chapter 781 (1/2)
After a look at each other, Jones and Aesop showed a dignified expression.
”It's not a time of peace. There should be no such joke.” Aesop threw the heavy magic guide book aside, and the coat rack that came out of nowhere picked up the book and stuffed it into the corresponding bookshelf.
Jones put his helmet back on his head, and said to the guard outside, ”bring the messenger here, and we will personally confirm whether the information is true.”
”To order.”
Then the sound from the outside died away with the sound of footsteps.
”Although the possibility of joking is small, maybe the other party's purpose is not a joke.” Compared with Aesop, who has been studying magic and alchemy in his room all the year round, Jones is obviously more mature and sophisticated in the battlefield. When he meets this situation, he thinks more comprehensively: ”for example, we are the heroes in turn to be transferred from the city wall and so on.”
”You mean, the other party may be the spy of the abyss devil.”
There was a chill in Aesop's eyes.
His hometown was affected by the invasion of demons, and almost all of them were destroyed.
Aesop's family, originally a small aristocrat, was also fragmented in that war.
It was too late when Aesop, who had studied with a legendary great mage, returned to his hometown. He only found two bodies full of maggots and highly rotten from the ruins of his home
It is because of this that he joined the salvation army when he returned to the teacher and achieved his cultivation. He blew up a surprise team composed of twelve big demons through a series of carefully designed magic traps, and became a new hero.
”It's just possible. I'm just making an analogy.” Jones scratched his helmet and made Aesop frown with a screeching sound like a fingernail scratching a blackboard.
”In a word, we can't judge until the man comes.”
”Hum.” Aesop leaned back on the velvet deck chair unhappily, humming without answering.
After a while, the guard's announcement came outside the door.
To their surprise, however, the informant was a girl.
”My name is Raven de Paisley, a swordsman from outside Stein.”
The informant first pulled up the corner of her skirt to reveal the leather trousers under the skirt and saluted the two heroes.
She was not humble or overbearing, and Jones was very fond of her.
Aesop directly releases a detection evil, but raven is not a spy from the abyss, so this detection magic has no effect at all.
But Aesop did not rest assured. Instead, he used an unfinished detection lie.
This magic is only effective for humans, and depending on the magic of the subject, there will be a certain degree of resistance to magic.
Raven didn't have much magic power before she entered the state of Dharma substitute, so the magic still took effect.
But there was no lie in her previous words, so the magic did not respond.
”Magic is not resisted. It's not high on magic. It should not be the devil or the people who are bewitched by the devil.”
Aesop narrowed his eyes and whispered in a voice only he could hear.
Of course, because of the increase in armor, Jones could also hear his words, knowing that there was no doubt about the identity of the girl in front of him.
But the necessary vigilance is still indispensable.
”Where did you live?”
He asked in a solemn voice.
This kind of voice with his nearly two meters of height, give people a very strong pressure, ordinary people will involuntarily fear, will tell the truth.
But Laven still looks calm.
”I came from the east side of the mainland, but now that it was occupied and desperate, I went to the plain of talieside and found the two men on the wanted list in the camp of centaurs.”
The place where Raven was before crossing was indeed the eastern plain, and in this era the eastern plain was indeed occupied. In order to respond to SIVI's plan and participate in the final war, there is no other way except to go to talieside. The statement that the two men on the wanted notice were found in the Centaur camp did not say when he met them or that he did not know them. Although it gave a misleading impression that they happened to be found near the Centaur camp, there was no lie in the literal sense.
So there's still no movement to detect lies.
”Well, your honesty has won my respect.”
