Chapter 58 Magic and Mystery
After reading the contents of the first three letters, the Last Dragonborn took out the last letter.
When he took out the letter, he keenly noticed the difference between the fourth letter and the previous three letters.
Although it was also placed in an envelope, the envelope was not sealed and there was no sending date on it.
Moreover, there was a gap on the edge of the letter, which showed that it was torn from a book.
Unlike the first three letters which were rough and had some spelling errors, the handwriting of this letter was obviously more delicate, as if it was written by a woman.
'It's been a month and a half, and there's no news from him. Let those nobles keep their damn money! I can't wait any longer!'
"I have to go to Manchenko Castle. I can only ask my mother to take care of the children temporarily."
'After fifteen years of being together, I can't bear the pain of losing him. This time, no matter what happens, I will be with him.'
'May the gods protect us—'
It's more like a diary than a letter.
After reading all four letters, a prompt popped up on the panel again.
[System prompt: The 'Dead' mission is completed, triggering the C-level mission 'Tracking']
[Mission Introduction: The blood-stained letter revealed the deceased's message before his death. In order to pursue her lover who lost contact during an escort mission, she embarked on a journey with no return date.]
[Mission objective: Find the final whereabouts of the escort team.]
[Task Reward: 250,000 Experience Points]
[Completion rate: 0%]
After reading the system prompts, the Last Dragonborn put away a few letters and finally checked the necklace.
The necklace has a heart-shaped pendant made of the same material, which can be opened.
The elf stretched out his finger and gently pressed the top of the pendant. The dark cover popped open, revealing a tiny magic shadow photo inside.
The blonde girl in a white dress placed her left hand in a V shape in front of her, and hugged a young brown-haired mercenary with her right hand, smiling brightly.
This magic shadow necklace is usually a pair, and the material is not valuable. When collecting spoils on the battlefield, if this pendant is found, the victorious party will tacitly leave it to the deceased.
No one can guarantee that they will not die on the battlefield, but they at least hope that they can always be accompanied by their loved ones when they rest in peace.
After years of experience in online novels and role-playing games, the Last Dragonborn has already reached a conclusion in his mind.
The lover this woman was looking for is most likely gone.
This is inextricably linked to their last mission, or more precisely, the cargo they were secretly escorting.
The location of Manchenko Fort is not far from here on the map. Even at the speed of the caravan, it will only take about seven days to arrive.
What exactly were they escorting?
A cool breeze gently blew the weeds beside the road. The mutilated body of a woman lay quietly in the weeds. A pair of empty bloody eye sockets that had been gnawed by wolves seemed to be looking at him pleadingly.
Looking at the several coins in his hand that were also stained with blood, the elf was silent for a moment, and suddenly smiled.
"I, the last dragonborn, accept your employment—"
Afterwards, the elf no longer hesitated. After comparing the direction on the system map, he changed direction and leaped rapidly towards the direction of Manchenko Castle.
What the Last Dragonborn didn't know was that all his actions at this moment fell into the sight of an eagle in the sky.
Separating the last Dragonborn from the caravan was a plan that Avis had already arranged.
Since the data will be deleted at the end of the internal test, these 100x experience version players are like unstable bombs. In order to test some "game mechanisms", they may drag others to explode at any time.
The most terrifying thing is that they can explode five times in total! But after all, he is a rare player sample, and Avis will not let him completely out of sight. Maybe he will be used someday in the future. . ….… .Airship, fifth day, dinner time.
Still at the same dining table, Avis and Hillier were chatting while Albins was eating in silence.
"The airship will arrive at the academy at seven o'clock tomorrow morning."
In a beautiful tone like an opera, Avis sighed with a mixture of truth and falsehood.
"Time, you are always so hurried and indifferent--"①
The pigeon had run out by itself before and was now flying around in the cafeteria. Anyway, no one could see it, so Avis just pretended it didn't exist.
"Well, can we meet again after we arrive at the academy?"
Upon hearing the news, Hillary felt reluctant.
After several days of getting along, the girl gradually got rid of her initial restraint due to Anvis's approachable manner and returned to her original lively and cheerful personality.
But she knew in her heart that she and Avis were not from the same world after all.
Therefore, even though she admired the elegant and handsome Anvis very much, the slender girl was just careful to keep this vague feeling in her heart.
She only hoped that this journey could last a little longer...
"There will be a chance, Hillary."
Anvis comforted the girl in a gentle and graceful manner, with just the right amount of regret on his face, revealing his aristocratic demeanor.
"Excuse me, after entering the academy, which school or sub-faction will you two go to?"
"Before I boarded the ship, the masters of the academy detected that I have a strong talent for the School of Illusion... but I haven't decided which sub-faction to choose yet."
The girl's slender fingertips were entwined with a strand of brown hair that fell to her shoulders. She lowered her eyebrows and thought for a moment, then spoke in an uncertain tone.
"School of Change, a school of change in space-time forms."
Albins raised his head slightly, spoke a few words sparingly, and then lowered his head again.
The girl glared at her impolite brother, then gave Avis an apologetic look.
Anvis shrugged his shoulders, spread his hands to the girl, and smiled helplessly, indicating that he was used to his personality.
"What about you, Anvis, which school will you choose to enter?"
"My choice?"
Avis smiled.
"I'll go into the occult."
Although Pamir College also has a prophecy department, Avis will never choose to join it.
Being a descendant of one of the four great families who possesses the gift of prophecy is almost like putting a layer of highlight on yourself, fearing that the enemy will not take you seriously enough.
Moreover, entering the mystical school of Pamir Academy was part of his plan.
As an ancient force with the same level of foundation as the four major families, some of the things collected by the Mystical School of Pamir Academy made Avis very coveted.
"Mystical school? Is it very strong?"
Hillary was a little confused, she had never even heard of the mysterious school before.
“Not necessarily very strong, but very profound and mysterious.”
Anvis smiled.
"Magic is vast, and countless spells have been created over the long years."
"Hilary, in your opinion, do all spells have their own casting models?
