292 Chapter 292
Looking at the villa under his feet, the old man frowned. The whole yard, including the room, was covered with an energy light curtain, which could isolate all the investigation information.
“It’s not simple.”
The old man was shocked. He was a powerful level-10 mage, equivalent to the existence of a demigod. However, his spiritual sense was unable to break through a small energy shield.
“My friend, I’m Hardy Franklin, the old dean of the Imperial Mage Academy. Something happened in the academy just now. I’m here especially to confirm with you.”
However, the yard was still very quiet and there was no response.
A few seconds later, Edgar and others also appeared above the yard.
Seeing this, Hardy’s face darkened. To be honest, although this person was able to fight against three level-9 masters, he didn’t take her seriously. As a level-10 practitioner, he could crush a heap of level-9 practitioners with one hand!
What he was worried about was the force behind this female master.
After all, there might be a more powerful existence behind the force that possessed such a master.
He was so polite that he didn’t break in at once. He had already as a favor to this person, but this person was so ungrateful!.
Wilder stood not far away and looked at the gloomy Hardy, with a more worried look on his face.
Hardy’s face darkened slightly. Now that the other party was ungrateful, he did not waste any time. He casually threw the magic in his hand in the direction of the villa.
Boom!
The magic hit the shield above the villa. The shield flashed and then broke into pieces, turning into scattered energy.
No one was there.
The moment when the shield was broken, Hardy’s face became gloomier. The faces of Edgar and others behind Hardy also darkened, but Wilder seemed to be relieved.
“Sir, the young man named Locke Capet was introduced by Wilder. I’ve heard that they have a close relationship. Maybe Mr. Wilder knows something about it.” Edgar reported to Hardy, bowing slightly.
Hardy turned around and looked sharply at Wilder. The other vice deans also looked at Wilder. The relationship between Wilder and Locke Capet was well known in the academy.
Wilder bowed to Hardy and then said slowly, “Locke Capet was indeed invited to the Imperial Mage Academy by me. At that time, I saw that he was gifted and powerful. I wanted to recommend him to attend the mage academies competition in the imperial capital a year later, so I invited him to join the Imperial Mage Academy. However, there was an incident in the process. Locke Capet was seriously injured and lost his strength.”
“At present, although we met once two days ago, we haven’t contacted each other since then, so I don’t know where they are.”
Wilder didn’t try to defend himself. He told everything he knew without reservation. Of course, no one could know any information about Locke’s whereabouts from Wilder’s words at all.
There was no loophole in Wilder’s words.
Edgar couldn’t find any evidence at all, so he had to give up the idea of teaching Wilder with the help of Hardy. After thinking for a while, he said, “Sir, I have a student, she used to be in a relationship with Locke Capet, and she may know more about Locke Capet.”
After a moment of silence, Hardy said, “Ask that student to come here.”
At the same time, in the living room of a small villa.
Locke, Artemis, Ares, and Vanessa sat together.
Vanessa sat in a daze. She was still a little confused.
After a while, she seemed to be making sure whether the news she had just heard was true or not. She looked at Locke and confirmed, “Do you mean that you have killed Walter?”
Locke nodded.
Swoosh~
Vanessa finally believed him. Sitting silently on the sofa, she seemed to need some time to digest this information. Just now, when she was in practice, she suddenly felt a powerful force descending on her body. Before she could react, she was brought to this hotel by Artemis.
As for Locke, he also had a headache. He had to admit that he had underestimated the power of a level-10 practitioner. “If you two work together, can you block the level-10 practitioner?”
“Judging from the aura of the opponent, even if we join hands, with our current state, we can only block the attack of the level-10 practitioner once at most.” Ares said helplessly, “However, as long as we don’t use our power on a large scale, it will be difficult for that level-10 practitioner to find us.”
Artemis looked depressed and resentful, “Humph! When I recover my strength, I will destroy this damned academy.”
She was a god. But now she was chased everywhere like a stray dog!
Hearing this, Vanessa took a deep breath and looked at the two persons in front of her in disbelief. Did it mean that this woman who could resist the three level-9 masters hadn’t shown all her strength in the last famous war?
How strong was this woman? Was she once a level-10 master?
“Although Walter is not the most favored prince, his status is not low among all the princes.”
As she spoke, Vanessa took a deep look at Locke, “Now he is killed by you, it’s equivalent to slapping the face of the Vito royal family hard. I think the royal family will not let you go. In other words, you are now the enemy of the strongest force in the Catacoton Kingdom. I really don’t know if it’s a good thing or a bad thing to invite you to the elf family.”
Shrugging his shoulders, Locke said helplessly, “Maybe it’s not too late to quit now.”
“I’m the elf with the spirit of the contract.”
Vanessa said with a smile, “You stay in the hotel for the time being. After I arrange everything, we will set out immediately.”
“Okay.”
Locke nodded.
“OK, I’ll go back to sleep.”
With a yawn, Artemis turned around and entered the hotel into her bedroom.
“Good night.”
Ares also waved his hand and went back to another room.
Were these people heartless, didn’t know how powerful the Vito royal family was, or did they have something to rely on and didn’t take the Vito royal family seriously?
Looking at the backs of Artemis and Ares, who were about to disappear, Vanessa was surprised. She acted very decisively. After greeting Locke, she stood up and went out without hesitation.
On the second day, the whole imperial capital city was shocked. The news that Walter was killed had been known to everyone only in one morning.
Everyone began to admire Locke Capet’s boldness. How dare an outsider attack the royal family in the capital city of a kingdom? This is simply humiliating the royal family and courting death.
As expected, the Vito royal family was really angry.
Three level-9 masters were sent out to search the whole city for the whereabouts of Locke, Artemis, and Ares.
