Everything was kept as it was, probably for the same reason as Mo Gan, in order to preserve as many clues as possible that had not been destroyed.

Mo Gan took a quick look and realized that there were traces of magic circles all around the mansion. Dolando, who hoped to do something to help the boss, was also very keen.

"There are a lot of forces on the verge of breaking out in the ruins ahead... Well, it seems very strong."

It doesn't know what it is.

But of course Mogan understood that if he got any closer, he might be caught by unknown magic, so he only looked for the special spot mentioned by Will nearby.

For example, the roof where the siblings first noticed something unusual and planned their separate actions, the corner where Will heard the knight's trivial conversation, and the general direction where Connor went while Will watched.

Morgan tried to put himself partially into the previous situation. Looking from the roof to the house, I found what a teenager would see as an excellent path - there weren't many options, it should work.

The meeting place chosen by the two children was far away from home, and the nearby houses were in normal use and had not been abandoned. Morgan was sure that as long as he was in the pedestrian passage, there should be no problem.

Following Kangna's possible path, Morgan used his imagination to find it. If anyone saw this scene, they would probably wonder how such a neatly dressed man could be so sneaky.

After turning around, Morgan also saw the back door of Miranda's house, which was also where Will himself deduced that his sister should go.

Compared with the unreasonable disaster that happened to the knight's family, and the fact that the cavalry captain has yet to be heard from, the most thought-provoking and inconclusive question in this matter is Conna Mirandi's secrecy.

Kangna did not disclose what she witnessed at that time, even when facing her own brother, she remained tight-lipped. She insisted on waiting until she saw the queen, and didn't even say anything when Cecilia came to visit.

This proves that the complexity of the facts may be far beyond imagination.

Morgan squatted down, found a position roughly consistent with Kangna's height, and looked at the currently visible range of Mirandi's mansion.

The back door made of ebony wood is tightly closed and the shape is intact, which proves that at least this area should not have been affected by the fire and has survived to this day.

Morgan may not know the whole story, but he is very sure that if it was just an ordinary fire, Will would not have met the knight standing by and heard the conversation that frightened him.

"Maybe now, it's a good thing that I can't find it..."

"Under the current situation, even if we keep the two siblings in the Knights, I'm not sure we can keep them. If they can fly far away, maybe to the royal capital..."

There were no injuries on the knight's body caused by the fight, and his vigilance also allowed a child to overhear their conversation and leave. This shows that the situation was critical and they themselves were in disarray.

The mysterious power that can make people dare not move forward or retreat, make people feel timid even before contact, and have to wait for the situation to develop in order to ensure safety, must be an extraordinary magic.

However, now, all that is left in front of the mansion is a big seal and a dead silence. There is no trace of the Mirandi family and the knights in the past.

It's difficult to guess Kangna's thoughts completely, but Morgan also came to the conclusion:

The view here was unexpectedly good. According to the direction of the street lights at night, Kangna's choice of detour made sense. She could indeed see everything happening at the door clearly.

And what did she actually see, so she made the decision to leave immediately after finding her brother, and at the same time she was emotionally unstable, and finally left such a message questioning whether the Queen could solve the matter?

这是需要解决的问题。

Kangna is a child who understands current affairs, but she did not return to the royal capital immediately to join her brother.

Instead, she boarded the pirate ship after taking a long detour. No matter what twists and turns she experienced, she probably didn't feel that her information was crucial and she had to report it as soon as possible.

However, knowing that the crisis in Nova City was still unresolved, she still left with the Royal Knights. The only hesitation in her decision was whether the pirates would abandon her. She must have realized something.

Without any more clues, Mogan didn't waste any time and walked in another direction.

"I felt like that place was a bit stuffy just now..."

Dorando suddenly spoke, her voice a little gloomy, and she was obviously affected.

Only then did Mo Gan remember that this little guy had the special ability to read the emotions of objects, so he put it back on the wall and put it on the wall again with great effort.

After trying it, Dolando said it was not possible, "The feeling is already very weak, maybe it took too long... I can't read the specific content. In short, it is quite sad and very depressing."

A year has passed, and perhaps countless people have walked back and forth here. Although someone may not necessarily touch the street corner with special emotions, the original imprint will be diluted to some extent.

But sad?

Mogan suddenly realized the importance of emotional changes in the entire incident.

This is actually in Will's description at the beginning, but the panic of a young boy is taken for granted in emergencies and is usually not so sudden.

而康娜这个少女则是例外。

The child, who was calm even in the face of the fire, turned pale when they were reunited, and only cheered up when he resumed his responsibility to protect his younger brother.这自然能延伸出一些猜想。

Will's first reaction was that it was quite normal to run to the capital, mainly because he heard the adjutant's casual chat suggestion and was ready to do it without thinking too much.

他一向擅长遵守别人的要求。 Even if the person who gave the target did not realize that the person he mentioned was behind him, he had no idea that he had made a reckless proposal.

It's unlikely that Kangna would hear the same chatter and make a decision about it. And Kangna is not someone who is easily bossed around. For a girl like her who aspires to become a free pirate, she can compete with the violent first mate of the shark, which shows her strong opinions.

If it was Kangna's own judgment to leave, it means that what she witnessed symbolized a danger beyond her original understanding, and she had no choice but to escape.

比如父母受伤、甚至死去。

Although it was a little offensive to speculate on other people's life and death out of thin air, Mogan felt that it was inseparable.

The Queen just asked Will to stay in peace, without telling the truth, but left him alone for a long time. This means that the cavalry captain may not have a good ending, and his wife will also be in trouble.

威尔至今仍旧对此一无所知。 At most, he occasionally doubts, but he doesn't delve into it deliberately so as not to cause trouble to others.

But that was not the case for Kangna. She may have witnessed the most horrific events happening right at the back door of her home.

Unfounded inferences can only go so far.

Since someone can take the initiative to seal this place with a magic circle, it means that the clues here are very useful, and after investigation, there should be corresponding file results.

The person most likely to lead such an investigation is naturally Assad, the chief prosecutor of Nova City.

Morgan really didn't expect that Inspector Ellaberg would find out that he was going to Nova City to give him a backup letter of recommendation so quickly.

The only obstacle at present is probably that it is too conspicuous to go directly, and it is easy to offend the ears and eyes.

But at least there is one more direction.

It was already dark, and he had to find a place to stay. It was precisely when he decided to go to Nova City that he did some advance research and determined that it was the most cost-effective hotel in Nova City.

He remembered the route clearly the first time he looked at the city map. He hardly had to find the way, and Dolanduo followed behind him.

After it discovered that there were very few pedestrians on the road and that it basically didn’t need to hide, it became much bolder and even chatted with Mo Gan while walking.

"Boss, you have always had black mist on your body, but it's just more and less. There was more of it suddenly just now, and now it seems to be less... Are you thinking about anything special?"

The child took a trip, but didn't know anything. At most, he learned that a sad man leaned on the street, but he didn't have any problem with it - Dolando was a worry-free little apprentice.

However, the elf's tone became more and more like that of a human apprentice, and this kind of title was a bit disgraceful to the elf who was supposed to be less philistine.

Mainly, this made Morgan vaguely worried. If he brought this little guy to Everest in the future, he might be held responsible.

He himself may think it's good not to be so simple-minded, but he also knows very well how important the elves are to the de facto only Miaomiao. Even though he is a human, Everest is the only adult alien "spokesman" of the elves so far.

His request was unusual.

Since the four-year-old "precocious" Morgan and Everest could complain about the fact that the child's heart was not pure enough, they had been thinking about it for a long time and left a deep impression on him. It was hard to say whether it would cause hidden dangers.

If this kind of problem is taken into consideration, Nova City may really be considered "perilous".

Compared to the small town of Windsor, which has an overall warm and simple folk customs, or even Pandora Market, which has frequent business transactions and mostly rules, the residential areas of Nova City are filled with a lot of messy information.

Such as the small paper advertisements stuck to the wall on the street. These are things that are widely distributed in a city like Nova City with a considerable flow of people. They are also another rare thing discovered by Dorlando today.

Realizing that the information in the advertisement also included other human products, the diligent and studious young scholar Dolando would put stickers on the paper from time to time on the road, and then be surprised by the creations of the human race.

Stick it, marvel, stick it, marvel, stick it... Repeatedly many times, Mogan was a bit stunned when he looked at the active little green ball, wondering where it got so much energy.

Perhaps because he had a salary and felt that he no longer lacked energy, Dolando gradually became more lavish in using his abilities without wasting time.

But it's not a problem if it continues like this.

With hidden worries about the direction of education, Mo Gan, who discovered the new hobbies Dorlando had acquired after entering the city, used his relatively good eyesight to read the advertisement in front of him at a glance and ten lines at a time.

Then he stepped forward and tore off a piece of paper that said "Not suitable for elves" in advance.

Originally it was just a tear.

"Ah, there are more!"

Doranduo diverted his attention from his hobbies and continued to complete his tasks, and then sighed at the black mist that appeared and disappeared on Mo Gan.

"Boss, what are you thinking about? Why is it getting darker and darker?"

Morgan took a deep breath.

In the real field of vision that no one could see, his Adam's apple moved subtly, but rarely made any sound. As usual, he used the most decisive words to immediately make the most reasonable response.

——Because even now, he doesn't know what to say when faced with this situation.

Dorando was even more confused now.

"Why do I feel like there is a fire burning something, but there is nothing... Boss, did you bring something called 'gunpowder' that was written on a piece of paper just now? Humans are so powerful!"

At this moment, Dolanduo couldn't see the magic power surrounding Mogan's hand at all, but he could find that the paper filled with weak wood elements in his hand suddenly disappeared, and he was naturally a little surprised.

But it did learn to draw inferences from one instance and was able to determine from the advertisements selling gunpowder for mining mines that it was an explosion that could use magic similar to fire.

Although the direction is not quite correct, I can generally guess that it is not magic, but artificial.

Mogan knew the real reason.

He stared at his palm. There was no ash residue left on it, as if he had never touched or torn off any piece of paper.

Like touching a frying pan with hot oil, the paper moved in his heart. The moment he was about to cast a spell at will, it was instantly annihilated in the flames that could be released at any time.

As if to remind him at the right time, with his bloodline, there is no need to recite any spells at all.

A single thought can destroy everything it touches, and for Mogan, who possesses half dragon blood, this is just a fact that he was born with.

What appeared on his hand just now was not magic, or rather it was another existence that was opposed to magic, and naturally it could not be sensed by Dorando.

It is not a simple and practical flame magic, nor an artificial spark, nor a product of technology, but an uncontrolled dragon flame originating from blood.

For Mo Gan, this was not a gift, but a signal that frightened him, a warning of chaos, and a symbol of loss of control.
