"Ogurevi's Longevity Technique!"

When Lusper introduced the situation to Gnieus, Ren had already seen the cause of Desade's death. He had a constant immortality spell on him but was lifted, so he died instantly.

Longevity is a tenth-level spell, which cannot be constant, but can last for a hundred years. As long as the spell is in effect, it will not naturally decay. Locking the state of the soul and body is equivalent to extending one's lifespan by one hundred years. Master Ogrevi relies on it. Lived two thousand years.

However, the biggest disadvantage of longevity is that it can be lifted.

Once the spell fails, he will die on the spot.

Ren has contacted Desade several times, knowing that he is very old, and the Eye of Soul is estimated to be over 980 years old, which is close to the lifespan of a legendary extraordinary person.

However, it was not found that Desade had the longevity spell on his body.

Looking back now, this was his own negligence. The longevity technique maintained Desade's soul state, so that his soul showed no signs of decay and death, so he didn't observe it too closely.

Dessad should have been traumatized by the soul, or some other factor, which reduced his lifespan.

Therefore, he can only rely on the longevity technique to survive.

There is only one person in the world who has mastered the longevity technique, and that is its inventor, Master Ogurevi. Desade's longevity technique was blessed by Master Ogulevi for him. Therefore, Desade has been secretly working for Master Ogulevi, even if he knew that Master Ogulevi had fallen, he did not dare to speak out.

Ren was shocked.

A terrible thought arises in my mind, was Dessad killed by Master Ogurevi?

He has always suspected that Master Ogulevi is not dead, but suffers from a lack of evidence, and Desade's death seems to confirm this speculation.

With the terrifying strength of Master Oglevi, the prison of the Church of Justice seemed to him to be nothing.

One time stop and it's solved.

Dessad's death process also fits the description of the holy swordsman. For the target affected by the time stop, it is like a trance in the senses, knowing nothing, and then it is over.

Master Ogulevi escaped with a fake death and stayed away from the empire. He heard that Dessad was arrested and interrogated by the Church of Justice, so he sneaked into Northrael thousands of miles away and killed him!

This guess seems reasonable.

"wrong!"

Ren suddenly returned to his senses, there was a contradiction here.

Assuming that Master Ogulevi is still alive, then the motive for killing him is that he doesn't want people to know his existence. With his magic skills, there are countless ways to kill Dessad, and there is no need to lift his longevity spell.

For example, Death Finger, Disintegration, Orb of Annihilation, Advanced Dissociation, Otherworld Vortex, or directly teleporting Desad to another place to do it, without the slightest difficulty, and without leaving a corpse.

Leaving Dessad's body was an absolute failure.

This is just like the sentence of the previous life, there is no silver 300 taels here, deliberately making people suspect that Desade's death is related to Master Ogulevi.

Ren was certain that Desade was not killed by Master Ogulevi.

Who would that be?

This person knows the existence of the longevity technique and its flaws, and also knows that Dessad has blessed the longevity technique. From this, it can be deduced that the other party is Master Ogulevi or someone close to Desade, and at least have the opportunity to have long-term close contact. , and thus know some secrets of the fall of Master Ogurevi.

Then, the person must also have the strength to sneak into the prison and do it.

Most importantly, killing Dessad could anger the Church of Justice, make the Church suspect of the Duke of Redstone, and make the two sides feud.

Hostile to the Duke of Redstone, covering up for Master Ogurevi, his skills are superb but he can't leave no trace at all.

These conditions greatly narrow the scope of suspects.

A familiar face quickly appeared in Ren's mind, and he couldn't help but feel ups and downs, showing it on his face, which was noticed by Luspel.

"What did Speaker Rennes find?" Luspel asked.

He stared at Ren, his tone was very light, it seemed he was just asking casually, but Ren felt a lot of pressure, the grand arbitrator was already sure that he knew something, and he was determined to ask from himself come out.

Ren's mind turned sharply.

The secret of immortality is known only to the Holy Soul Wizard of the Supreme Council.

According to the teacher, Master Ogulevi invented the longevity technique more than 500 years ago, and he never told anyone about it until later, when the Holy Soul wizards realized that the lifespan of Master Ogulevi had exceeded the limit, and some were not It's normal, so I couldn't help but ask a few times.

The Holy Soul Wizards are not malicious, but a few have a long lifespan and are very concerned about their own life extension, so I sincerely ask for advice.

Then, Master Ogulevi revealed the longevity technique.

He didn't go into details. The defect that the longevity spell would be killed when it was lifted was actually conjectured by other holy soul wizards themselves.

Today, there should be no more than twenty people who know the secret of the longevity technique.

Luspel and Gneus were obviously ignorant, otherwise, with their experience, they could tell at a glance the cause of Desade's death.

"I can't tell them for the time being, this is related to the mystery of the disappearance of Master Ogulevi."

Ren made a quick decision in his heart.

He shook his head and said half-truth: "Your Excellency the Arbiter, I'm just surprised by Desad's death, like being hit with a finger of death and withering, both of which are undead spells that are difficult to cover up. Traces, maybe you can use light and shadow to trace back to see some useful things."

Luspel stared at Ren for two or three seconds, with a bit of dissatisfaction in his eyes.

The holy swordsman cultivates the power of the mind and will, and has a very keen perception, especially the emotional ups and downs of the target.

As a holy swordsman of the thirtieth rank, Luspell's attainment in this respect is the best in the church.

Ren's drastic change in his mind just now was clearly captured by him. There must be other hidden feelings, and he obviously didn't tell the truth.

But Ren's words were not without merit.

A finger of death combined with the withering technique can indeed cause this corpse state.

If it were someone else, Luspel would never be polite, and directly used the mantra of the law to deter interrogation, but he had to be cautious about Renn. The strength of this young man was not even clear to him. It is said that there is also the legendary element of truth and will , the general mental interrogation method is ineffective, and the backing is also amazing, so it cannot be easily offended.

"Okay, then look back first." Luspel nodded slowly.

Ren's face was light and breezy, "I propose to invite Elder Crono Manser over."

Luspel had no objection.

Gnieus' reaction was half a beat slower, and at this time he also noticed that there seemed to be a secret confrontation between Ren and the Grand Arbiter, and he couldn't help but be puzzled.

A few minutes later, Cronomanser arrived.

The chief elder who had just been in charge of Nether Floating City entered the cell and saw Thadde's body on the ground at a glance, and his expression suddenly became very exciting.

Shocked, hesitant and dazed.

"This is Dessad?" Crono Mancer asked in shock.

After getting a positive reply, he was even more surprised, stepped forward to take a closer look, and shook his head in disbelief, "How could he be like this? It doesn't look like he just died, if it wasn't for the two Lords telling me , I can't believe this is Dessad, have you found any clues?"

"That's why I invited you here," Luspel said. "Look back at the situation with light and shadow."

"Okay." Crono Manser cast the spell without hesitation.

Retracement of Light and Shadow is an eighth-level spell that only legendary high-level wizards can master.

Cronomanser raised his hand to cast a spell quickly, and a few seconds later, an illusion appeared in the cell, as if time had gone backwards. The illusion showed what happened in the past, but it all played. In the illusion, Crono Manser walked out of the cell backwards. After a few minutes, the three of Renn also left backwards, and then went back for a long time, and the figures of the holy swordsmen appeared.

They found Desade's body and hurried to report.

The vision continued to trace back, finally to the time of Dessad's death.

Everyone watched carefully, and the illusion suddenly stopped, as if the picture had been frozen. After a few seconds of lag, it returned to normal. The body of Dessad on the ground was gone, replaced by the living Dessad. He stood there with a look of decadence, his eyes blank.

"What's the matter?" Luspel asked.

Crono Manser said solemnly: "Arcane interference. The other party was very cautious, using arcane interference to prevent the light and shadow from retracing, covering up what happened in those few seconds."

He controlled the illusion to go back and forth for a few seconds, and the result was the same.

Either it's blurry and nothing can be seen.

Either the screen freezes and the few seconds are skipped, in short, Desade's death process cannot be seen.

This made both Lusper and Gneus look bad. Even if they were psychologically prepared, the murderer would definitely guard against the backtracking of light and shadow, but just tried it with a bit of luck, and the result was still disappointing.

Gneus asked, "Elder Cronomance, is there any other way to track it down?"

"Maybe, but I can't do it." Crono Manser stopped the light and shadow backtracking, thought about it for a few seconds, and smiled bitterly: "With this person's magical strength, the other party can also think of the way I can think of, and With all the preparations made, it will not be so easily seen through.”

"Spirit sorcerer?" Gneus asked in a low voice, his expression cautious.

Cronomance's face changed slightly, "Not sure."

Lusper snorted coldly. Like Gneus, he also guessed that this method was too much like a Holy Soul Wizard. There are a total of twelve Holy Soul wizards in the empire, and those who have the motive to kill and silence, can't find the second one except the Duke of Redstone.

Although the move looks stupid, like taking off your pants and farting.

But after removing all the improbables, no matter how improbable what remains, it is the truth!

Luspel suddenly looked at Ren and asked, "Does Speaker Ren have anything to say?"

"No."

Ren shook his head and responded with confusion on his face.

Ever since Cronomance came in, he had been observing each other with the eyes of the soul.

Unexpectedly, Cronormanser's words and deeds, whether it was shock and dazedness, unhesitating retracement of light and shadow, or careful speculation about the murderer, his actions were consistent with his heart. , without the slightest falsification.

This shows that Crono Manser really does not know, neither knows the longevity technique nor who the murderer is.

Unless the eye of the soul goes wrong.

Ren felt that this was impossible. The Eye of the Soul had never produced any deviations, and even the emotional changes of the saint-level superhumans were well known, let alone the legendary high-level Krono Manser.

Previously, Wren speculated that it was Cronormanser who killed Dessad.

Among the two nine-ring spells he has mastered, one of them is astral projection, which can be possessed by a creature at a distance to cast spells and fight to achieve the purpose of killing Thadde; he is the most outstanding student of Master Ogulevi. One, he also had the opportunity to come into contact with the secrets of the longevity technique, and even participated in the plan of Master Ogulevi; in addition, he and the Duke of Redstone also forged a feud over the Nether Floating City, and had the motive to frame the blame.

Ren originally had more than 70% confidence that it was Kronormanser, so he proposed to let him come over and observe the scene.

But the Eye of the Soul's observations disproved this speculation.

Desade wasn't killed by Crono Manser, who could it be?

Any other Nether elders?

Or is the Duke of Redstone really stupid?

Ren found that he had no clue, as if he was shrouded in layers of mist, and he couldn't see the truth behind him at all, and he didn't even have any clues.

There was silence in the cell for a while, and Luspel said lightly, "That's it."

"Your Majesty, don't you continue to investigate?" Gnieus still had doubts.

"Naturally it won't be the end of it." Luspel looked at the three of them, "The Justice Church will definitely continue to investigate, but it will be turned into the dark. Tomorrow I will announce Desade's death and cancel the investigation of him. Judgment, but this does not mean that he can escape the crime, all the honors in his lifetime will be stripped and nailed to the pillar of shame in history."

Gnieus nodded ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ wisely and did not ask again.

Desade is already dead, so these charges are meaningless. The Justice Church has lost all face this time, and Liwei's plan has all failed.

Lusper's remarks were just my comfort.

Even if it is suspected that it is the hand of the Duke of Redstone, but there is no evidence, the Justice Church has nothing to do. Even if there is evidence, it is estimated that it can only be endured.

Luspel left.

Cicero took the trio out of the Court of Justice in place of the Grand Arbiter.

Outside the Court of Justice, after Cicero went back, Gneus and Ren looked at each other with smiles on their faces. This time, the Church of Justice and the Duke of Redstone had a grudge.

This is the result they are happy to see.

Crono Manser also reacted, the corners of his mouth could not help rising, and he whispered: "Good death!"
