Chapter 739 Lanqi Bravely Enters the Mafia

"Boss Cat, calm down, tell me where you are."

Lanqi held the communication magic card to his cheek with both hands and asked quickly.

The communication effect was very poor.

He wasn't sure exactly what Boss Cat was trying to convey.

But he could hear a distress signal in Boss Cat's voice.

"Lan...meow...danger...hurry..."

He heard pretty much the same thing.

Lanqi looked at Talia, who also had a questioning look on her face.

It seemed that not only could they not hear Boss Cat clearly, but Boss Cat also couldn't hear Lanqi's instructions clearly.

Ding-dong, bang-bang.

In addition to the communication magic, the doorbell rang downstairs, accompanied by some heavy pounding.

It seemed that someone had come to him at this time, and they were impatient, not caring that he was a professor at the Saint Creatia Monastery.

Logically speaking, Professor Landri had only been at the Saint Creatia Monastery for a week, and Secretary Naira had helped him hide his address information. Apart from Secretary Naira and a few internal members of the academy, no one should know where he lived.

Normally, even if it was an insurance salesman, Lanqi would open the door and have a good chat with them.

But Lanqi couldn't care less about others now. No matter who came to him, it was a secondary matter. Boss Cat and Elsa were the most important.

"Emp...ty...al...ley...meow..."

Boss Cat's IQ seemed to be gradually increasing. Even without hearing Lanqi's instructions, it roughly realized what useful things to say.

"Why are you looking at me? I don't understand what Boss Cat is saying."

Talia suddenly felt that Lanqi was a bit damned. She wasn't a cat, so how could she understand Boss Cat's meaning more easily than Lanqi?

On the contrary, this guy Lanqi inexplicably had a group of animal friends wherever he went. He could even talk to the birds on the balcony. Talia really couldn't understand why Lanqi could understand the language of animals.

"Very good, you still have to say 'meow' even if the communication is bad."

Lanqi really couldn't decipher Boss Cat's compressed message.

The sound was still intermittent, making it difficult to judge Boss Cat's meaning. Lanqi could only put the magic card to his ear and quickly walk downstairs.

The doorbell continued to ring incessantly. For the first time, Lanqi felt that riddles and listening tests were so difficult.

In a story about another world that he had read in his spare time, the heroine only said one word each time, and the hero inexplicably understood her meaning, and then only replied with one word, which always made the readers confused.

Lanqi now wished he had the hero's ability.

But that was ultimately a beautiful story that only existed in books, unrelated to this world, and there was no need to forcefully imagine the fictional story and reality together.

"Lanqi, think positively, Boss Cat's speech habit is still so clear."

Talia also returned to Lanqi's body and went downstairs with him.

She felt the anxiety in Lanqi's heart, so she tried to comfort him.

Although Lanqi was still as calm as ever on the surface, she, who could read Lanqi's mind, knew very well that Lanqi's heart was beating faster than when she had pinned him against the wall just now.

"..."

Lanqi nodded.

Boss Cat was, after all, an eighth-order being. If it were to release a large eighth-order spell in Brilda, the entire city-state would enter alert mode. Now, the outside was still calm, indicating that Boss Cat was just hiding in the shadows and using communication magic to contact him, and hadn't used any trump cards yet.

According to his instructions, it was best if Boss Cat didn't use a single spell unless absolutely necessary. Its level was too high, and its spells were too flamboyant.

Boss Cat understood how to try its best not to expose itself. The best way must be to shake him, Lanqi, over. He had Landri's sixth-order professor status, and the adjustment space for his actions was very large.

Arriving at the entrance hall on the first floor.

Lanqi grasped the doorknob and twisted it open. He was just about to go out, so he could take a look at who was looking for him at this time.

Night had completely enveloped the courtyard, and the cold moonlight洒 on the grass, coating everything around with a layer of silver gauze.

A girl with purple hair and green eyes outside the door was raising her hand to continue knocking on the door. She was wearing a black suspender dress, and her delicate girlish features showed a hint of impatience, while her eyes had a boyish handsomeness because of her heroic spirit.

When she saw the door open, she stopped her hand immediately, otherwise she might have slapped Professor Landri.

"Ursula?"

Lanqi didn't expect the uninvited guest to be Ursula Roland, a student in his course.

He had a good impression of this marquis's daughter, the younger sister of Ryan, the Ninth Army God and the Crystal Seat.

Not for anything else, she was indeed very talented, whether it was in magical engineering or magical practical skills, she was already the well-deserved top level among the first-year students.

"Elsa is missing."

Ursula said urgently to Lanqi with a serious face.

"Huh?"

Lanqi still held the communication magic card, which occasionally made meowing sounds, to his ear, but his gaze had already focused on Ursula.

"As her brother, don't you care about your sister at all?"

Ursula rolled her eyes in an instant, feeling that Landri's ignorant state made her angry.

Originally, she thought that Elsa had canceled the agreed-upon play tonight, and found an excuse not to go, so that Elsa could watch it with the brother she had been thinking about.

As a result, this Landri decisively rejected his sister's invitation for the sake of work.

According to Elsa's cotton personality, she would definitely not say another word.

Now that she came to Landri's house, he still looked like he was full of work, like he was working stupidly, just came down from the study that was lit on the second floor.

"It's my negligence, please tell me what exactly happened."

Lanqi walked out directly, and the door behind him automatically closed as the bearing retreated. He stood in the courtyard at the door and asked Ursula.

He didn't care about Ursula's attitude, because Ursula always had a casual attitude in class. As a professor, he was already used to the students' learning methods. What he cared about now was whether Ursula knew anything about Elsa and Boss Cat.

"Elsa and I agreed to have dinner together tonight and then go to the premiere of the play, but she didn't come to my dormitory to find me at the agreed time. She never comes late, and she will definitely notify me even if something comes up temporarily. I went to her dormitory next door and couldn't find her, and then used a short-distance communication magic device to contact her and found that she was not in the school at all."

Ursula said with a frown.

She had told Elsa to be sure to come.

Because she didn't tell Elsa that she was actually preparing to persuade Professor Landri to put down those works and go to the play.

Ursula originally planned to drag this Landri out today anyway and let him accompany Elsa. If she told Elsa, Elsa would definitely not agree.

As a result, Elsa didn't return to Saint Creatia Monastery.

Ursula felt more and more wrong.

"If you had agreed to go out with Elsa, there wouldn't be so many things."

Ursula was extremely dissatisfied with his behavior, and her green eyes narrowed slightly, her tone full of disdain and disgust,

"How important is your career to you? Is it more important than your sister?"

Elsa's afternoon schedule today was actually very simple. It was just going to the Temple of the Gods to pray to the goddess for a while, and then returning to school, just like usual. There was no reason for her to suddenly disappear.

So she came to the easiest teacher to find—

Landri.

She had offended the other teachers a little bit, and they might not actively help, but this guy was that child's brother.

Anyway, she had prepared to come to him today.

"My spirit cat is on Elsa, but the communication is particularly poor. Can you analyze where Elsa is?"

After listening to the whole story, Lanqi nodded calmly and asked Ursula.

He put the [Ultra-Long Range Communication Program] next to Ursula's ear.

"!"

Ursula's eyes were initially doubtful, but she didn't refuse. Hearing Lanqi's explanation, her eyes quickly lit up.

She listened carefully to the noise and childish meowing sounds coming from the communication magic.

"My cat has repeatedly mentioned words like 'box' and 'alley'. Do you know where there are boxes and alleys?"

Lanqi asked aside, trying not to disturb her as much as possible.

The other words of Boss Cat were too abstract. Only these two could more clearly infer nouns.

"She goes to the Brilda Temple of the Gods to pray every weekend. From her route back to the monastery, there are boxes, alleys, and it has to be relatively dangerous..."

Ursula rubbed her eyebrows, trying to think, and muttered,

"Then it's probably only the port area in the southeast of Brilda, which is the territory of the Brilda Mafia."

Her brows relaxed and she looked at Lanqi, drawing the answer.

Although she felt that no matter how biased Elsa's route was, she wouldn't deviate to the port, but from Landri's description, that was the only possible place.

Otherwise, it would not be dangerous to take a fifth-order spirit beast in the town.

The only explanation was that Elsa was forcibly sent to the gray area of the Mafia using a space magic item.

Space magic, like divination magic, was not only rare but also often had great limitations.

Just like teleportation magic, either the distance was extremely short, or the energy consumption was extremely high, or the teleportation target must be very low-level.

"Are you sure?"

Lanqi took back the communication magic card and stared at Ursula, asking her.

After all, he was a newcomer to the Creatia Empire. No matter how much he knew about the map, he couldn't have seen all the landmarks of the super-large city of Brilda.

And all of this seemed vivid in Ursula's eyes.

"100%, I am very familiar with every place in Brilda. I am the most outstanding scout in the first grade."

Ursula told him firmly,

"You go to Secretary Naira. The Mafia not only has sixth-order cadres, but also seventh-order leaders, and there are even rumors of a mastermind behind the scenes. You must not provoke them."

Ursula grabbed the lapel of Lanqi's suit jacket and instructed him on his next course of action without delay.

The heart hanging in her throat finally fell by half. She couldn't help but be thankful that Landri had put the contracted beast on Elsa, which not only allowed her to find key clues, but also had a powerful contracted beast to protect her, so Elsa was at least much safer.

It seemed that Elsa was not deceived by her scumbag brother. Elsa's brother had at least considered his sister's safety.

"Principal Violet is not here, give me some points, which places in the port area have more containers."

Lanqi simply explained the situation clearly and naturally broke away from Ursula's hand.

If Principal Violet didn't come forward in person, there would be no way to solve all the problems in an instant.

Apart from Principal Violet, the Saint Creatia Monastery currently has no other seventh-order or above transcendent combat power. It would be too slow to let Secretary Naira handle it. Maybe Boss Cat would have to take action by then.

"Calm down!"

Ursula understood what Landri wanted to do in an instant.

This guy wanted to break into the Brilda Mafia's port by himself.

That giant Mafia territory was like a complex maze even on the periphery, and it was not suitable for sneaking in alone.

Ursula knew that Landri was not weak. He was a magical craftsman with a sixth-order rank, and he might be able to defeat very strong opponents of the same rank with his wisdom, just like he did on the Brilda train.

But in the Brilda Mafia's home, he would be crushed at the first touch. The other party could defeat him just by the number of people!

"Trust me, I'm not going to die."

Lanqi lowered his head and looked into Ursula's eyes, saying to her word by word.

Those clear blue eyes were pure and sincere, and especially bright in the night.

"..."

Ursula was momentarily speechless, and her lightly opened lips slowly stopped.

She had rarely been stared at like this.

It was like she was really being seen.

Not only did he believe in her, but he was also asking her to believe in himself.

Sometimes, the best persuasion is the persuasion that has no reason, because this man's eyes didn't look like a reckless man going to die, but rather had a clear understanding of the chances of winning.

"Let's go together, I'll guide you."

Ursula said firmly instead.

Maybe this was an adventure that seemed to have no chance of survival, but she had never been afraid of anything. Her fearlessness in the school was never fake.

She was sure that Elsa's brother really cared about Elsa, so that was enough to make her believe in this man.

"..."

Lanqi's eyes were a little hesitant.

After all, this was the daughter of the Roland Marquis family, and the younger sister of the Ninth Army God. If he involved her in danger, it might cause a lot of trouble.

What's more, if Secretary Naira really knew that he had brought a female student into the Mafia's area, he would definitely be scolded. The nature of this matter could be said to be quite bad.

"Take me with you, I can smell Elsa's scent."

Ursula added concisely, returning the same look to the professor.

She wasn't a reckless man either!

"Tata, go to the port in the southeast."

Lanqi instructed in his heart.

Anyway, that was a gray area where battles below the seventh-order could be conducted at will. He and Talia had fought too many black boxing matches in the Holy Silver Vine Arena in Paris, and they knew how to restrain their strength.

Common flight magic was mostly wind magic and telekinetic magic. Talia was better at special types than elemental types, and the levitation magic she used was also a telekinetic type.

In an instant, the weeds began to dance wildly on the lawn of the courtyard, and the figures of Lanqi and Ursula also merged into the night sky.

"Thank you, Ursula."

Lanqi immediately turned back and said to her in mid-air.

"It's difficult for you to find her accurately alone. With me, you don't need to distract yourself too much to protect me, but you can find her several times faster, I promise!"

Ursula smiled contentedly and replied to him.

As the eldest daughter of the Roland family with the blood of the ancient griffin, she also had the potential for talent magic, and her best [Reconnaissance] magic destined her talent magic to also be reconnaissance attributes.

Not only could she smell Elsa's body scent, but she could also smell her magic scent, or rather, as long as it was the target she locked on, no matter what kind of concealment magic was used, she would definitely be found by her.

"You must pay attention to your own safety."

Lanqi exhorted.

He couldn't let other students be in danger or even get injured just to protect Elsa.

"I know, take care of yourself first, the Mafia is much more dangerous than you think!"

Ursula nodded and replied in the high altitude.

Although she had never thought that anyone's brother would take her to do such a stimulating thing as breaking into the Mafia, at this moment, she felt more of a long-lost excitement than fear.
