Jack Attacks Base Camp

After everyone was ready, Wu Ming, Jeanne, Chiron, and Caules went to investigate the missing members of Yggdmillennia in Trifas.

Fiore, Sieg, and Astolfo live in Millennia Fortress.

Since these people who lost contact were scattered in different places, it took a long time to investigate the last person who lost contact.

The basement of a room.

"With this, the eight people have finished investigating. This is the site of the final investigation." Caules crouched on the ground, examining the corpse.

Seeing the corpse tied to the chair with his eyes turning white and several scalpels stuck in his body, everyone fell silent.

Caules took out these scalpels one by one, and the wounds on the corpses were basically bloodless.

"The results of eight local surveys have one thing in common, and everyone heart has been dug out."

Speaking of this, everyone present frowned.

"The heart is the essence of magic power. The phenomenon of the heart being dug out is not strange to the unbridled Black Assassin."

Wu Ming folded his arms and stood to the side, then said: "Perhaps Master Black Assassin is an ordinary person and not a Magus."

This reminds everyone.

"There is a saying that digs into the heart of a Magus to increase magic power." Chiron said.

"Except for excavating the heart, the corpse appears to have been questioned throughout its life, and the torture methods were extremely cruel," Caules said.

"What is strange is that some of the corpses have traces of torture, and some have no traces of interrogation. This is a strange place." Chiron took what Caules wanted to say.

"Could it be that Black Assassin needs to scare people, so you torture these people?" asked Jeanne.

"No way, this can't explain why some corpses don't have any traces of torture, and there isn't enough time. Previously, we were all busy with the battle between the black and red factions, and there was no time to control the Black Assassin." Wu Ming shook his head, frowning.

"I thought it was a Magecraft ritual, but it doesn't look like that upon inspection." Chiron also added the opinion.

Caules stood up and walked back.

"With this, I must apply <Psychoscopy>"

Jeanne didn't understand Magecraft stuff like this, and she asked, "What is psychoscopy?"

"It's a kind of magic that can get information about their deaths, although it's a bit dangerous."

Caules took a chair and said, "But now I can only do this."

"Wait!"

Wu Ming said quickly as if he sensed something.

Then he rushed out in an instant, leaving only one sentence.

"The Magecraft trap I left in Fort Millennia has been triggered. The opponent is at the Servant level."

"What!" Chiron also ran in an instant.

"Chiron!" Caules shouted at Chiron.

"I know!" After that Chiron also left.

"These tortured people are all those who have the password to open the facilities at Millennium Fortress! That's why the Black Assassins will attack Millennia Fortress." Caules analyzes.

After listening to Caules explanation, Jeanne ran outside in a hurry.

Only Caules followed hastily.

After all, he couldn't reach the speed of a Servant no matter how fast he was, moreover, he had to calm down now.

Caules picked up the phone at this time and wanted to call his older sister, but at this moment, the phone showed no signal.

"Elder sister, I hope nothing happens to you." Caules could only pray like this.

.....

At this time, the Yggdmillennia family, Millennia Fortress was fortified.

Around the edge of the castle, magic power formed a protective barrier, protecting the entire castle in the shape of a hemisphere.

The outside of the protective covering was filled with thick fog, including the roof.

The Homunculus who had been guarding outside the Millennia Fortress also retreated.

In the entrance hall, Gordes, Sieg, and Astolfo were examining this Homunculus. Some of them were outside the protective cover and inhaled a bit of the acid mist. Fortunately, the treatment was timely and there are no casualties for now.

Gordes anxiously asked at this point.

"Where is Fiore now? Is there a guard by his side?"

The Homunculus on the side answered.

"The Patriarch is currently studying the former Patriarch, and there are no guards by his side at this time."

Upon hearing this, Sieg immediately turned around.

"Quick, Rider, the enemy might be a Servant."

"Oh oh! I understand."

With that, the two quickly ran towards the study.

Gordes was left with a confused look.

At this moment, the outer protective covering seemed to have reached its limit and shattered into pieces.

A thick fog spread towards the Millennium Fortress at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Damn it!"

Gordes quickly took out a box like golden sandalwood, placed it on the door, opened the lid, and purple smoke came out.

The purple smoke seems to have this effect to block out the thick fog, which cannot enter through the gap in the front door.

However, the rest of Millennia Fortress was engulfed by a thick fog, and slowly, the entire corridor where Fiore was in was shrouded in thick fog.

And Fiore who had just been busy working in the study also found something wrong at this time and quickly opened the door and looked towards the corridor.

Seeing the foggy corridor, Fiore took out a magic handkerchief, covered her nose and mouth with one hand, pushed the wheelchair with the other, and walked towards the room where her Mystic Code was kept.

After all, Fiore had paralyzed her leg due to Magecraft circuit damage and abnormality. She had acquired an extraordinary Magecraft skill, but she was unable to move freely. The regular combat is based on the Mystic Code developed by her.

Bronze-Link Manipulators, this is the name of Mystic Code designed by Fiore. A special support is used to replace the immovable leg.

But even if a third grade Magus is equipped with this Mystic Code, it can become a first grade Magus.

The shape is similar to a backpack, which is mounted on the back. The back has four prosthetic hands. Forged from a special alloy that circulates magic power more easily.

Each prosthetic hand had a beast spirit attached to it. It can move according to Fiore wishes, and the Mystic Code can act according to the situation to protect Fiore.

When Fiore finally walked to the door of the room where the Mystic Code was kept, Fiore caught a glimpse of a strange little girl holding a knife standing behind her.

But there's no doubt that this little white haired girl looks so cute, serial killer Jack the Black.

Maybe Fiore panicked a little. After opening the door, she tilted her body and fell to the ground along with her wheelchair.

Fiore hastily crawled in, then closed the door with Magecraft.

As Fiore heaved a sigh of relief, the door opened again.

"I'm sorry, big sister, I know the Magecraft of this door~"

This innocent child gentle words made Fiore feel cold, and her pupils could not help but shrink.

There is no doubt that this is the voice of the devil.
