Chapter 211

Just as his teammates were absorbing Leon's experience in shamelessness, there was a knock on their inn room door.

It was the secretary of the magistrate of Mori City.

He explained the situation to everyone—just now, the magistrate, who was receiving the mermaid delegation in the meeting hall, had received a secret letter from the capital of the Kingdom of Rune.

The letter was from a mysterious figure who the magistrate had previously reported Leon and his group to, explaining the situation.

This time, the reply indicated that the mysterious figure was very interested in the miraculous healing abilities of the Eastern Monk Group and wanted to hire them to perform a secret surgery in the Rune capital.

"Hmm."

Leon stood in the living room, rubbed his chin, and suddenly asked the secretary, "What is the name of that figure?"

"I'm sorry, I don't know."

The secretary said helplessly, "But I can guarantee that he must be extremely powerful. Gaining his friendship can only be beneficial, not harmful."

Leon exchanged glances with his teammates and agreed to the secretary's request—they needed a reason to go to the capital of the Kingdom of Rune. They had originally planned to go with the mermaid delegation, but it would be even better if they could shorten the time.

The figure's need was quite urgent, and he directly booked a first-class train carriage ticket for Leon and his group for the afternoon.

The secretary handed the tickets to Leon and the others, then left the inn, allowing the Eastern monks to prepare.

After he left, Leon and the others immediately discussed their strategy.

"Based on the current situation, that figure is most likely Princess Anna, or directly the Ice Queen."

John Joyce said urgently, "Should we go?"

"We definitely have to go, we just need a reason to go there."

Leon squinted and said, "If it's really the Ice Queen who's sick, then all of this makes sense."

"Assuming that the Ice Queen or her sister arranged this consultation, then according to their plan, there will definitely be people monitoring us along the way."

Julia said softly, "And after arriving at the destination, we will probably be closely watched, with no chance to use the magic mirror or gather intelligence. We need to be prepared."

"Yeah."

Leon looked at the ticket, weighed the time, and without saying a word, took out the magic mirror fragment and activated the fifth special effect.

[Special Effect: False Prophecy. The user contacts the magic mirror to have it predict the probability of their death in the next twenty-four hours, as well as the percentage of various fundamental causes of death. No consumption, cooldown time of seventy-two hours.]

As Leon pressed his finger on the magic mirror fragment, lines of data were reflected on the mirror's surface.

[Probability of Death in the Next Twenty-Four Hours: 0.05]

[Percentage of Fundamental Causes of Death: Rupture of Cardiac Aneurysm with Acute Cardiac Tamponade 20%, Mechanical Injury 19%, Mechanical Asphyxiation 17%, Lightning 11%, High and Low Temperature Injury 10%, Exogenous Toxic Substance Poisoning 7%, Decapitation 4%, Strangulation 1%]

These data were dense and intimidating to look at.

However, Leon didn't care at all, and instead observed his possible causes of death with interest.

"The probability of death in the next 24 hours is only 0.05, which means that as long as I don't act recklessly, there won't be any danger."

Leon said calmly, "The fundamental causes of death should be the possible causes of death after an accident, after I fight with the Spellcaster Legion.

"The rupture of a cardiac aneurysm with acute cardiac tamponade is actually higher than mechanical injury? That's really interesting."

The others didn't dare to say a word. Even if the probability of 0.05 was small, it wasn't negligible. They were really afraid that Leon would blame them for his future cause of death.

Leon thought for a while and buried the doubts in his heart. Since the probability of death was not high, he did not use the sixth special effect of the magic mirror, [Temporary Immortality].

Afterward, the players slightly sorted out their equipment and props. Leon asked Smoker, Bob, and John Joyce to go to the train station first, while he and Julia went to the magistrate to resign (and also to verify the situation), before going to the train station to take the train.

Smoker, Bob, and John Joyce were already waiting in the train carriage, accompanied by two low-level officials in uniform—

These two should be high-level spellcasters directly under the capital, accompanying Leon and the others both for protection and for monitoring.

The tendency of the fairy tale world's technology tree to be skewed was very obvious. The streets of prosperous cities were still mostly carriages, and cars were rare, but the train technology was very good, stable and fast.

Leon silently flipped through books, John Joyce played cards with Bob and Smoker, and Julia drowsily leaned against the window to sleep.

After an eight-hour train ride, the group arrived at the capital's train station of the Kingdom of Rune at night, and under the guidance of the two spellcasters, boarded a spacious carriage.

The curtains of the carriage were as black as ink, airtight.

There were two officials waiting inside the carriage, holding several long black ribbons in their hands—these were not prepared to strangle Leon and the others, but to blindfold them.

Leon and his group put on the black ribbons, blindfolded themselves, sat in the carriage, and quietly moved forward in the capital.

The carriage circled around the city a few times, but this trick was not very useful for spellcasters, not to mention that Leon had a good sense of direction and had already flipped through countless maps of the Rune capital before coming.

By calculating the time through his pulse, the guidance of his sense of direction, and the map in his mind, Leon directly determined that the carriage stopped at an apartment building near the magistrate's residence.

There were also people waiting outside the apartment building to meet them, and they led the blindfolded Leon and others into the apartment building and took them to the third floor.

There were obviously many people walking around on the third floor, and there was a strange smell in the air—Leon, who had been basically soaking in potions these days, clearly smelled that this was a potion called Mandragora,

The specific effect is to increase the user's cardiopulmonary function, and is specifically used to treat and alleviate severe congenital heart disease.

The materials for Mandragora potion are rare, difficult to refine, and expensive, and only the great nobles can use it.

Most importantly, one of the medicinal guides for Mandragora potion is fresh human heart blood—which means that refining Mandragora potion usually costs a life.

This potion had long been banned by the government, and the prescription could only be found in the archives of museums and the collections of secret cults.

According to the concentration of the medicine in the air, it can be judged that this person must be taking the medicine for a long time, and the amount is far greater than the average dose.

With the arrival of Leon and the others, the sounds of walking around the apartment building were lightened a lot, but this group of people had no idea that Leon and the others had special reconnaissance skills, and could see their appearance even through the black ribbons.

These people were all wearing uniforms, and judging from the nameplates on their chests, they all held important positions in the capital.

That is to say, the important figure lying here should be the magistrate of the Kingdom of Rune, the sister of Her Majesty the Ice Queen, the actual ruler of several kingdoms, Princess Anna.

The other companions also realized something, and couldn't help but feel a little nervous. Before, they had been monitored by spellcasters all the time, and they didn't have time to use the magic mirror's detection function to scan this mansion.

But they could figure it out with their toes. Those responsible for Princess Anna's security should be the most elite and powerful spellcaster organization in this land.

They were already deep in enemy territory, if the magic mirror fragments carried by the players were found, or if something was noticed

John Joyce and the others were a little nervous. The group was led by the spellcasters to small cubicles, where they took off their blindfolds and were searched.

All the magic mirror fragments that the players had collected before were handed over to Leon for safekeeping, but the security personnel in charge of the search did not seem to be able to find the mirror on Leon.

After walking out of the small cubicle, the other teammates looked at Leon strangely, as if suspecting that he had some weird storage device like a four-dimensional chrysanthemum.

With suspicion, the players were led by the security personnel into the ward on the fourth floor of the apartment building, where they met Princess Anna.
