Mage Veigar

Chapter 98 Magic Cloak
boom.

After a loud bang, the house was burned beyond recognition.

Ellison is dead.

At the last moment, he burned his mental strength again and released a fireball, attempting to die together with Vega.

Unfortunately, his wishful thinking was wrong.

Since the previous fireball failed to kill Veigar, how could the same trick hurt Veigar?

This may seem silly.

Vega originally thought so.

But after interrogating Bray, he found out that the magician was carrying a secret letter to the head of the United Kingdom's spy organization in Kalini. Although the content of the letter was unknown, its importance was unquestionable.

In other words.

This last fireball was not aimed at Vega.

Ellison's real purpose was to burn the letter on his body. From his last words, we can know that this letter must be related to some strategic planning, otherwise the United Kingdom would not have allowed a magician to act as a postman.

However, the letter had been burned.

In other words, the clue has been broken.

This is indeed the case from the current situation, but Vega got even more explosive news from Bray.

In the city of Kareni, the head of the United Kingdom's spy organization is——

Government system, Director General of Law Enforcement, Bruno Valencia.

There are currently 1 soldiers, about 200 professionals, and an unknown number of magicians working for the General Administration of Law Enforcement, which is the only military force in the Kareni government system.

If the Director of the General Enforcement Agency is the head of espionage.

As long as the war breaks out, the main combat forces of the Third Army and the judicial system will all go to the border. In this case, with the rear area extremely empty, if the Law Enforcement Directorate rebels, Kareni will be lost in an instant.

Once Kareni falls.

Then the Third Army and the Legion of Inquisition would not only be attacked from multiple fronts, but even their basic sources of supply would be cut off.

The supply line is the lifeline.

If the rear area is lost, the outcome of the war is foreseeable.

The United Kingdom has actually gone to such an extent...

This is not just about winning the war, but about taking down the entire Third Army!
Vega recalled Ellison's last words again, and a cold sweat broke out on his back.

The Third Army is the main fighting force in the north of the empire. Once it is destroyed by the United Kingdom, what will be lost will not only be the city of Kareni, but the entire northern front of the empire, because the city of Kareni is the throat of the north.

This is a matter of life and death for the entire Kareni and the northern front of the empire.

Vega's heart began to beat violently.

As long as this important information is reported to the military, then as a deal, I believe that the entire Third Army will not abandon Vega even if it means sacrificing the Kareni government system, let alone breaking up with the Kareni Trial System for him.

But the crucial point is.

He has no evidence to prove that what he said is true.

Bray's testimony alone was not enough to bring down a senior official in the Karelian government system.

However, his own evaluation in the military has dropped to a historic low. Not only will he fail to impress the military, he will also be regarded as a desperate clown.

In other words, he still needs some substantial evidence.

Then the problem is back to square one, that crucial letter has been burned.

Now Vega dared to speculate that the secret letter might be a signal that the United Kingdom intended to start a war.

What to do now?
Vega was once again stuck in a dead end. He felt a sense of frustration and began to regret it extremely.

If he had known about the letter and killed Ellison directly, the situation would have become a foregone conclusion by now.

This is like winning the first prize of a lottery worth hundreds of millions, only to find out when you get to the prize redemption center that you had lost the priceless lottery ticket on the way to redeem the prize. If you are a person with a lower psychological endurance, you may not be able to breathe properly.

Although Vega didn't go to that extent.

But my thoughts still stopped for a few seconds.

He turned his gaze back to Bray, who was huddled on the ground and trembling. "What else do you know? Tell me everything!"

“No, it’s really gone.”

As if sensing Vega's hostility, Bray's voice trembled to the extreme: "I have said everything I need to say. I only know that he came to Kareni to deliver a letter to the director of the Law Enforcement Bureau. I don't know the content of the letter at all. He just asked me to find a chance to avoid the eyes and ears of the army and bring the law enforcement team here."

Vega could tell Bray wasn't lying.

So he picked up the dagger, walked up to Bray, and without any unnecessary words or any regard for old friendship, he chopped off his head with one blow, because Bray was no longer of any use to him.

This sudden knife attack also made Bray unable to react, because he never expected that Vega would suddenly kill him.

The dagger is sheathed.

A trace of warm magic was injected into Vega's heart, making him feel a little warmer.

At this point, Vega can only look for other evidence.

So he looked at the magic cloak and staff on the ground that could not be burned and were a little tattered.

There is no taboo about it just because it was worn by a dead person.

In line with the principle of not wasting anything, Vega simply bent down to pick it up and put it on.

The magic cloak is a kind of magic item that has great meditation bonus and mental concentration effects. Especially in the battle between magicians, the concentration of mental power has a direct impact on the speed of casting.

A magic cloak costs as much as a spellcasting medium.

Although the quality of this magic cloak is only average, it is not an item that Vega can afford in the short term.

With the addition of a magic wand in hand, today's harvest can be considered "acceptable"...

This is how I comforted myself.

Vega discovered that this cloak also had a camouflage effect. As long as he put on a wide hat, not only could he hide his own breath and change his original voice, but a layer of fog would also rise from his face to block his vision, making it impossible to see his true appearance.

This cloak is tailor-made for the Shadow Mage.

However, due to his body shape, the cloak is too big for Vega. Of course, it's not that he can't wear it, but it makes him look funny and weird when he wears it, with his limbs and military uniform all covered, just like the pirate ghost wrapped in white cloth in the movie.

Veigar wasn't picky.

He was wearing a black cloak and was about to walk out of the dilapidated house which was still burning.

Because there was no point in staying here. The body of the magician Ellison had been burned to ashes when the fireball exploded, and Bray was almost cremated, so there was nothing valuable to be found here.

But at this moment, a small team in the distance was attracted by the fire.

They were wearing the uniforms of the law enforcement team, and the leader was a level 3 professional.

Vega did not show any surprise. All matters big and small in the city were generally managed by the law enforcement team. When an explosion or fire occurred here, they would naturally rush here as soon as possible.

Come near.

Vega didn't show any movement, but the leading level 3 professional showed an expression of disbelief.

He fixed his eyes on the collar of Vega's cloak.

There is a special symbol that is barely visible at that position.
