    Tahitian stared coldly at the young man who had a sigh on his face and spoke strange words, but in her heart she was thinking about whether to stab him to death with a sword, and then join a large team to fight together.  But I saw that guy turning around with a sly smile on his face: "How about it? Do you want to follow them to see the excitement? It doesn't seem to be too far. It's another place only about thirty miles away?"

    How did you know?

    "If they really had the ability to keep secrets, they would have succeeded this time." Edward chuckled: "Follow them, maybe you can help them when they encounter danger?"

    The temptation described in the soft voice made Tahitian bite her lip, and her heart felt like a swing, constantly swinging.

    To go or not to go?

    In fact, when thinking about this issue, the three people were already on the way forward.

    It is not difficult to follow the troops of the brigade. Although under the hazy moonlight, the flying dust in the distance is not easy to see clearly, and you will be discovered if you get too close, but there is a road leading to the target location.  As long as you control your speed carefully, you won't be left too far behind.

    But riding a horse at night is not an easy task. The eyesight of creatures like horses is not good at night. The forward, backward and evasive are controlled by the rider. However, their hoofs and feet are surprisingly fragile, and any small potholes can be easily detected.  It can break the horse's legs and throw people out. The horse's legs can be broken in a minor case, or a person can be injured in serious cases, ww¡Ùw. The horse and the horse are killed Although the hazy moonlight in the sky can still illuminate the way forward, in this situation  In this plane, most of the roads have not undergone any repairs. The road hardening project and the flat dirt road are already in good condition.  At present, the roads in sparsely populated areas do not even have a solid surface, but most of the gravel, tree roots and other things have been removed.  Potholes are not uncommon, so knights must control their horses carefully.

    But in fact.  Tahitian knew that she was always in some kind of danger. The feeling of secretly disobeying the teacher's orders made her unable to concentrate. From time to time, she would be distracted and look at the person in front of her who caused all this.  The culprit was completely opposite to her nervous and excited mood. The guy named Edward still looked leisurely. It was just his mount. The hybrid stallion was like a legendary spiritual creature and was not needed at all.  Under the guidance of the knight, he ran as smoothly as during the day, several times.  Tahitian followed its position to avoid potholes on the road that could cause accidents.

    What kind of trick was used?

    The female knight almost subconsciously sensed the man and the magic fluctuations around his mount, but still found nothing. People are ordinary people, and horses are ordinary horses.

    "It looks closer than expected"

    Thirty miles is not a long distance for a military mixed-breed horse, but after more than half an hourglass, the group in front began to become clear, so the three of them followed suit and reined in the horses.  Carefully ascend a small hill.

    The moonlight is shining brightly.  It was slightly past the darkest second half of the day, but the sky was still as dark as ink. Only the area around the crescent moon was rendered silvery gray, and the moonlight filtered through the mist-like thin clouds.  It was cold and blurry, but it was enough for Tahiti to look through a sparse forest and look several miles away.  A continuous stretch of buildings.

    The flickering lights outline the vague shadow of the manor This farm covers an area of ??less than one mile.  It seems unremarkable, similar to the manors dotted around the metropolitan area.  Even the shabby kind.  Just when her eyes lingered on the pale magic light, Tahitian suddenly shivered slightly, and her heart tightened. The slight coldness that penetrated her body was not due to the temperature in the middle of the night in late summer, but to the body's response to the magic power.  some subtle reactions.

    It's like disgust, but also like fear.

    Where is that place?

    This question passed through my mind, but there was no answer. It was just that cold feeling, but it seemed to follow me, spreading slightly on my body.  Fortunately, a voice reached her ears at this moment, interrupting this dangerous thought just in time.

    "Miss, you have a very strong sense of magic. Why didn't you try to be a mage before? Isn't it much better than a knight?" Edward's eyes casually passed over the manor, absent-mindedly far away.  , he had already observed this place in a more detailed way.

    "What do you know?"

    The female knight snorted, but the praise implicit in the other party's words made her tone soften: "Those mages are all weird guys. If a girl goes to be their apprentice, she might encounter something.  Such a problemit's not like the magic academy in Tuminis."

    "You can secretly find someone to learn some magic skills."

    ¡°I hate labs with dead salamanders and spiders.¡±

    The sound of the female knight gnashing her teeth made Edward curl up his lips The empire's mage inheritance still adheres to the ancient master-apprentice system, and the number is far less than that of Tuminis. Mages hired by nobles often occupy all the resources in a region.  , this eldest lady obviously encountered a not so good example.

    But he didn¡¯t seem to notice that the female knight suddenly reached out quietly and pressed the hilt of the sword.

    Although Tahiti lacked a lot of experience, this did not mean that she was a stupid little girl who could be deceived by others. She looked suspiciously at the man's slightly shining eyes as he looked into the distance, and she almost immediately thought of it.  This man obviously also felt the unusual magical atmosphere in the manor about certain things, but his performance was obviously more plain, even the kind of calm that he had already understood.

    In other words, he is likely to have a certain understanding of magic.

    "The method of using magic items is actually not a secret, and there are many people in this world who can do it. But if there is anyone who pays special attention to it and even turns it into a systematic ability, then it must be the so-called  The wanderers." Tahitian thought of the teacher's daily teachings in her mind, and her eyes became colder when she looked at that person.

    The so-called wanderer is just a more polite term, and its meaning is very broad.  And most of them are not so good thieves, agents, killers, spies, bounty hunters, even gangsters and so on.  can be collectively classified into the ranks of such people, and most of them.  It can also be called 'villain'.  They never agree with the constraints of 'morality', and many of them are even believers in evil gods, taking pleasure in spreading fear and death on the continent, and those evil beliefs often bring them some incredible abilities.

    And does the person in front of you completely fit this description?

    Of course, it is also possible that he is simply an ordinary person who is just putting on a show.

    But what¡¯s the point?  If he had no other purpose, why would he get involved in such a thing?  To know.  No matter how convinced they are that they are doing a just act, in any normal understanding, this action may be to break into someone else's house. If no evidence can be produced, all  The participants are simply committing crimes.  Even if this action is correct, it is still very likely to fail, and at that time, the participants will still be the most annoyed.

    Does he look like the kind of person who would take such a risk in his eagerness to help others?

    "I know this place. This manor seems to be the property of a businessman. It does not have any aristocratic background"

    The young knight following the two men spoke softly, but it was more to relieve his nervousness than to provide information. As the youngest of all the arrivals, he may not be over twenty years old.  age.  This was why he was asked to stay and leave with Tahiti.  This judgment was obviously very correct. At this moment, the real battle had not yet begun, but the little guy's fingers holding the horse's reins were already trembling.  I don¡¯t know if it¡¯s because of fear or excitement, or both: ¡°No. I mean, actually in the capital area. It¡¯s an anomaly without any background, so what the adults are saying is, we can  ¡­¡±

    But before he could stammer out anything, the female knight had already turned her head towards him, and the stern look in her eyes made him sluggish.

    "How do they plan to get in? They won't rush in directly after taking a rest, right?"

    Edward raised his brows mockingly, and his gaze extended forward from the knights who were stopping on the road to form a team, and fell on the small manor.

    This manor has a winding outer wall as a protection, but it is only made of simple rammed earth and wood. The height of about seven or eight feet is not much higher in the eyes of a flexible person. There are no watchtowers on it. If there is a  It is not difficult to break open a heavy weapon of good quality, but the owner has arranged the inside of the wall into a courtyard, and the main building is hidden behind the layers of tree canopy.  No one can confirm whether there are any more troublesome traps later.

    "But what Edward is concerned about is something deeper.

    At the core of this manor, there is a circle that he cannot see through

    Although it can be said that Edward is not the real Edward at this moment, but is just a clone constructed by part of his spirit and divine power, this construction method makes him actually not much different from the clone of God.?, in the main material plane, there are very few things that can completely hinder his perception.  But in the manor in front of him, there was something 'rare' right in the center of the manor, invisible to the naked eye. It was like a thick darkness, pure and deep, swallowing him up.  All probing¡­

    In the center of the darkness is a two-story building. However, this wood-and-stone structure adopts a gorgeous and tall style. Therefore, although it is only on the second floor, the height of more than ten feet is enough to stand.  The people at the second-floor window looked out at the dark, sparse woodland at the edge of the manor.

    At this moment, a woman was sitting by the window, leaning on the railing and looking.

    The gorgeous long dress, the brown hair combed into a high bun, revealing the slender white neck, and the gorgeous clothes on the body constitute a noble and dignified appearance, but like a cat, the eyes are big and bright.  Her eyes, combined with her slightly plump lips, are enough to give her a different kind of charm, a kind of wild charm.

    Rather than calling it charming, it might be more convincing to call it 'enchanting'

    But at this moment, her eyes were filled with an indescribable emotion She looked outside the crystal window lattice.  There seemed to be something about the silhouette of trees in the darkness that attracted her.

    "They are just a group of stubborn fools. Their actions have long been under the control of the Marquis, and the reason why they are not blocked out is just because these guys have good abilities and can be used as slaves of the emperor. These things  People can never learn to be smarter. In fact, the Marquis has already given them a chance. Of the more than 100 people they originally contacted, more than 50 wisely chose to abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side. But they  It¡¯s still here.¡±

    The speaker was standing behind the woman. He was a tall but not bloated man. He was about thirty-four or five years old.  He has a chiseled face and a beautiful beard.  Although there was a hint of smile on his face.  But it will never bring too much goodwill to others. On the contrary, this smile makes his face look a little unpredictable, which can be said to be reserved or insidious.

    In fact, from the moment he opened his mouth, the lady with her back turned to her frowned in disgust.  However, she was not in the mood to refute the fallacy of the person in front of her about "abandoning the darkness and turning to the light". She just gently patted the swaddle in her arms. The soft deerskin and fabric revealed the face of a sleeping child, pink and tender.  Small face.  Her long eyelashes were drooped, and she was breathing softly and evenly, but her sleep didn't seem to be stable, and her light brows would wrinkle a little from time to time.  As if to cater to the woman holding him.

    The knight was silent.  However, he did not look away, but looked at the woman in front of him with interest. His eyes were the blue-gray color often seen among imperial nobles.  It just shows a kind of depth and sharpness that is different from ordinary people, just like a sharp steel nail.  Giving everyone he looked at a feeling of being nailed.

    Even though her back was turned to him, she was swept by that gaze unscrupulously for a long time.  The aristocratic woman seemed to have finally lost her patience and spoke.  "Your Excellency Salazi, don't you have to deal with those uninvited guests? Or at least prepare, just in case?"

    "Preparation? No, there is no need to prepare for such a fool. What's more, the order given to me by the Marquis is to protect your majesty's safety." The middle-aged man chuckled, and the sullenness in the voice of the woman in front of him seemed to be just  It will make him feel a certain kind of pleasure: "Weeding is the gardener's job, washing is the maid's job, and I just need to be ready to obey your orders at any time."

    "I'm really grateful for your high opinion, Lord Saraqi Sword Master, but I am not your Majesty." The woman said coldly.

    "No, of course you are His Majesty." The middle-aged man's smile seemed to be more cheerful: "Even if the false emperor does not recognize you, you will soon get a more glorious identity. As long as the ceremony is completed, you will be  ¡­¡±

    "Shut up!" The loud scolding interrupted his chuckle, and the woman stood up suddenly and turned to him: "I will not let my child become the carrier of that damn monster, even if it costs me and his  Life!" She raised her head and stared at him, her eyes flashing, as if burning with blazing fire: "Never, and never! No matter how many times it is repeated, no matter when it is!"

    "Do you think there is really any point in talking about these things at this time?"

    The middle-aged man sneered and said: "The great emperor will inevitably come back to this world, and he chose your child. This is the fate of that child. Welcome all this with joy, be grateful and praise him."  It, this is your destiny, the power of destiny is the greatest power in this world, not you, me, or anyone else can?What is speculated is not something that those stupid and weak knights can stop. We can only bend down, welcome its arrival, and rejoice in it This is fate.  "

    He spoke slowly, but the last words seemed to be reciting a psalm of praise. The gentle voice caused a slight echo in the empty room, but seemed to make the surrounding air a little cold.

    "Everyone has his destiny. This is the truth. Resistance or acceptance is just an inevitable part of what fate has arranged for them. The wise know how to choose, but the fool"

    He said, and then turned his gaze to the darkness in the distance. At this time, a little fire light was rising between the trees, and then moved forward, drawing dazzling lines in the darkness.  He paused, then chuckled: "Let's see how these fools perform"

    A bit of dark red flame drew bright orange lines in the dark night, and finally landed on the door decorated with patterns, and then expanded there, exploding and expanding into a ball of fire in an instant, and the bright flame burst into flames.  In an instant, the surrounding dozens of feet were transformed into a place shrouded in morning light and the air wave expanded beyond the flames, knocking open the two thick oak doors, and then tore them off with a shock wave visible to the naked eye.  Countless flying sawdust lit it up into a magnificent arc.

    After the loud explosion, there was the rapid sound of horse hooves.

    It only took a short moment for the light of the fireball technique to go from expanding to extinguishing. When the door flew away, it had been extinguished and turned into a dim bonfire, creating only heavy shadows that impacted the interior of the manor
