Chapter 92 The Gathering of the Faceless
During this time, has anyone entered your room?
It is also possible that the goblins were manipulated by magic to place this thing on his desk.
Lin En realized this immediately, and then the bright red envelope trembled slightly as if sensing something.
[Curtain of Ice]
Lin En raised his hand to cast a spell without hesitation, a solid ice crystal wall blocked in front of him, and pressed his right hand on the doorknob, ready to open the door and run away at any time.
Under Lynn's vigilant eyes, the bright red envelope was automatically opened, suspended in the air, and the golden rune inside was very conspicuous.
[Dear Mr. Carl
In view of your outstanding performance in Iyeta Harbor, we sincerely invite you to become a member of [Faceless].
[Faceless] is committed to exploring the mysteries of magic. There are no rules or identities here. All members will exchange knowledge as equals and jointly explore the truth of the world...
…
…
The next meeting will be held in four days, at 11:00 p.m. We look forward to your visit. ]
Lin En's eyes swept across the long paper, and finally condensed on the two words [Carl] at the beginning of the envelope.
Has your identity been exposed?
Lynn couldn't help thinking that Carl was the name of the body he occupied. He hadn't heard this name for a long time after arriving in Harbor Town.
Although the red letter in front of him seems to be just an invitation letter, and the content and title are also very polite, but judging from the direct identification of his identity, it is obvious that the visitor is not friendly and has a sense of threat.
And now Jonny is the only one who knows exactly who he is...
No, the white pigeon and the lifeless Kelu also count as half.
Lin En's first target of suspicion is naturally Jonny. After entering the seaport town, the identity and status he obtained do not match the original Karl, and the other party may have some doubts in his heart.
Just revealing his identity, which is of no benefit to Johnny, because that means that the responsibility for the interruption of the route will be brought up again.
Compared to his officially certified status, the words of an apprentice do not have much credibility.
Followed by Baige, although this child is already half dead, but some powerful psychic wizards may be able to search for some key information from her mind.
Herram has already taken the frozen body of the white dove to find a great wizard who is proficient in psionic magic, maybe it has something to do with it.
But Lynn quickly vetoed this guess, because the great wizard just set off yesterday, not to mention whether he could reach the city of wizards within a day, but at least he couldn't return to send a letter to himself.
In addition, Herram's power was beyond his ability to contend with. If the other party took advantage of it, he didn't have to be so troublesome if he wanted to do something himself.
If he guessed correctly, there is a high probability that Baige's soul has been taken away by the brain, even if there is magic to search memory, it may not be useful.
All kinds of thoughts flashed in his mind, and after experiencing the initial panic, Lynn quickly calmed down.
The other party may not be able to confirm this. This letter is likely to be a temptation, otherwise this letter would not have been submitted until now.
Because there is no evidence to prove that he is Karl.
In the case where psionic magic is completely banned in the land of wizards, things like checking brain memory cannot be used as evidence to bring it to the surface.
After all, the person who said this is tantamount to declaring himself a psionic wizard, and using magic that is prohibited by the Wizarding Council in violation of the regulations. This is not a small crime.
Lin En was thinking, the envelope floating in mid-air spontaneously burned and turned into scattered paper ashes.
At the same time, a delicate-looking ring fell out of it and landed in the teacup on the desk, making crisp sounds.
Lin En activated [Mage Hand] and took the ring in front of him.
According to the description in the envelope, only need to input magic power inside, a specific magic frequency can be emitted, and part of the magic power with will will be sent to the meeting place.
You don't need to go yourself, and you won't show your true face. This is the meaning of [Faceless]!
Except for the inviter, no one can know the identities of the others... Every member is free to discuss topics that are considered taboo in the wizarding land, naturally including psychic magic that is considered taboo!
It's kind of like a... holographic projection?
Lynn turned around and looked at this exquisite ring. The whole body of the ring was made of mithril, and many strange runes were engraved on the surface. The most conspicuous thing was the red gemstone inlaid on the ring setting, which was carved into a very beautiful flower. Showy flowers.
"Blood-colored thorns?" Lynn naturally recognized this peculiar flower, and instantly understood who sent the envelope and ring.
Did someone notice the interrogation of Nur just now?
Lin En thought to himself, maybe the moment Nuer died, the person who planted the soul restriction in his mind received the news, and then sent this letter.
As for whether this was a threat, a warning, or a solicitation, Lin En didn't know, but one thing was certain, this wizard organization named [Blood Thorn] seemed to know a lot of information that they shouldn't know.
Whether it is the blueprint of the airship that I got suddenly, or the name Karl...
Prophecy? Divination? Spiritualism contacted Kolu, who may have died, some kind of magic that can eavesdrop on other people's conversations, a spell to identify lies, and bought someone who knew the information with money...
Thinking of all kinds of possibilities, Lin En's expression suddenly turned cold, and he wrapped the ring suspended in his palm with a magic-hating stone that can isolate magic power, and then took the books off the shelf one by one, and opened them on the wooden board behind. He made a hole and hid the ring in it.
He is not going to bring this kind of thing of unknown origin. Lynn has no plans to attend the so-called [Faceless Man] party.
Now there are still four days before the next meeting of [Faceless Man], which is probably the time limit that the other party specially left for himself to consider, but Lynn doesn't want to follow this pace.
"[Black Doctor] Ladakh?" Lynn recalled the name that Nur had repeatedly mentioned when he questioned Nuer before.
This Ladakh should be the core figure in [Blood Thorn], and the person who is most likely to set a soul restriction in Nuer's mind and send a letter to himself!
