199 Chapter 199 - Reporter
The law enforcers were astonishingly efficient in making their search. In only a dozen or so minutes, they’ve already found the entrance to the basement.
Soon, the dark basement was illuminated by over ten illumination spells. The teleportation formation the Holy Church established without permission was found by the law enforcers.
“These are the runes used to set up a teleportation formation. The core beneath the ground is still operational. Men! Eliminate these runes! Bring the core back to the council!”
The captain of the law enforcers commanded the others. As for the templars that followed them down to the basement, they were completely speechless with the proof before their faces.
They could only watch as Norland’s law enforcers started to demolish the basement with no concern for what might be there.
At this moment, Thousand Faces stealthily took out the ‘magic camera’ Joshua gave her.
She pressed the shutter on the upper left corner nonstop and took pictures of the entire basement.
But now, the dark elf had the ‘magic camera.’ With this, things were completely different!
Iron-clad proof was in her hands in the form of photos. The molten gold has instantly transformed into cool gold bars.
She believed that if those photos were to spread in Norland or posted onto the Mage Forum, the Holy Church’s prestige in Norland would fall to their lowest point.
To construct a teleportation formation in the territory of another country without their approval was a hostile act akin to invasion.
‘You’re too young, too naive. Don’t always think about earning money. A competent reporter not only needs to run fast, they would, at times, also need to get hold of a major piece of news.’
Joshua’s reply appeared in the dark elf’s line of sight. She was currently lingering behind the team of law enforcers. She planned to take a picture with both the law enforcers and the templars.
When she saw the message Joshua sent her, she truly felt the urge to tell him her true age. But, in the end, she didn’t bother doing something as meaningless as that.
The dark elf stopped wasting time with the conversation. The law enforcers had erased the majority of the teleportation formation’s runes. One of the law enforcers activated a magic that started to control the bricks on the ground.
try { window._mNHandle.queue.push(function () { window._mNDetails.loadTag("386623558", "300x250", "386623558"); }); } catch (error) { }
The entire basement started trembling. The floor was immediately lifted from the ground. The core of the teleportation formation, the source of its magic, appeared.
“It’s you… damned traitor!” He recognized Thousand Faces.
“I also remember you… you’re the one who’s most afraid of death. Seeing that you’ve worked under me before, answer a couple of my questions and I’ll spare you.”
The dark elf’s ice-cold voice sounded by his ears. The dagger on his neck had cut through his flesh. If it moved a couple centimeters further, it will sever his vocal cords.
“Traitor, you can give up on that thought! Your torture is useless toward me!” He shouted. He seemed to want to make the people around notice him with his shout.
Unfortunately, the templars of the church were all together with Norland’s Law Enforcers. The nuns were also hidden away for their own protection. As such, there was not a single sould in the vicinity at all.
“Torture? This is no torture…”
The dark elf suddenly recalled that her identity was no longer Norland’s number one information dealer since a couple days ago. Joshua had given her a legitimate occupation… an occupation called ‘reporter.’
Because of that, her style of conduct had changed. As her profession had changed, what she does would naturally have to change its name too.
