After too much stimulation, people's reactions may become numb, so although it is completely impossible to imagine what it means for a person to seize another person's body, at least Tahitian didn't make a fuss anymore, just holding the little child, and I didn't forget to wrap him in deerskin. ¡ÀFortunately, the Marquise must have used sleep spells on the child before escaping, so even though he experienced several dangers, he still slept soundly and probably wouldn't leave behind any frightening memories.
But what kind of misfortune awaits behind that door?
Even if that person has become a 'Saraqi', even if he has put on the armor of the royal guard, there are still countless flaws The fat armor that does not fit the body will be a little wobbly when walking, and it cannot be left on forever. The mask of the helmet, not to mention the fact that the three of them returned like this, how could the whereabouts of the others not be questioned? It's just a portal. If someone has passed through and returned just before you noticed it, then I'm afraid it will be a big trap from the other party. At that time, how can you and the teacher protect that person? A Marchioness, and this child?
Fortunately, the enemy values ????the child as well as the Marquise. If he has no choice he can only
No!
"The last resort is just a poor excuse, it's taking hostages, and it's such a child!" In that case, wouldn't he be even more despicable than that person's behavior?
The messy thoughts were interrupted by the trembling of the space. The female knight raised her head and saw a gleam of light from the eye holes of the mask sparse stars on the horizon. It has gradually disappeared, and the increasingly bright blue and white color illuminates the vast horizon to the east. The undulating and looming mountain shadows. Although it is just a few signs of the rising sun, it carries a special sense of beauty. Wandering in the mind.
In the field of vision, there are exquisitely carved building railings, and beyond that, there are rows of green trees running down the gentle slope Countless roofs and tree crowns spread outward, creating a stunning community of beauty.
??This is the star observatory of the Royal Palacethe top of the Royal Palace.
Even though she has never actually set foot here, the unique continuous roofs around her made the female knight instantly think of the name here Everything related to it also came to mind one by one, such as this is the highest place in the Imperial Palace. It was also one of the few remaining buildings from the fire that almost destroyed the entire city. Before the Tower of Heavenly Ting appeared in Illyria, it had always been the best place for emperors to overlook their home. At the same time, It is also close to the sky, 'a place close to God'. In addition to the stargazers authorized by the emperor, even the Dukes of counties and provinces, if they have the opportunity to climb up here and look out, it is regarded as an honor that the emperor absolutely trusts, enough to be recorded in the history of the family.
Although as time goes by. This glory is gone, but the observatory is still a forbidden area of ????the palace.
However, at this moment, dozens of people have gathered here.
Thirty royal guards wearing armor, the magic swords in their hands are shining brightly. As the five people appeared, each moved slightly, and the subtle sound of metal friction seemed to be sharp enough to cut the hearing. And more than ten mages arranged a ritual in the center. The dazzling flow of magic power made Tahitian almost stiff!
The next moment. Dark red light fell from the sky and enveloped the five people
With the blood-like brilliance flashing, Tahitian almost jumped up and drew her sword. But a voice came to her ear at the right time, stopping her actions - so the light fell and rose, and everything was as usual.
But more subtle and more radiance came one after another Then, as if he felt that she was not nervous enough, the 'Sword Master' began to urge dissatisfiedly: "Can you hurry up?"
"This is necessary, Sir Sarachi, you know"
"Of course I know, that's why I just asked you to hurry up! Don't you know that a noble should not show such disrespect in front of anyone?"
"But Sir, we need to ensure your safety"
"Guarantee my safety? Do you think I should believe your nonsense?"
Tahitian lowered her head slightly and listened to the unceremonious sneer from the 'Sword Master' who took it to her. She felt a little lucky that the helmet of this armor was a full-coverage helmet. Otherwise, others would have looked at her face. No, maybe there was some flaw in her rapid breathing. The unprecedented tension made her feel that everything around her seemed to be blurred, and the helmet was filled with her own heavy breathing, mixed with her rapid heartbeat.
Every word that person said from that hazy place made her tremble with fear, fearing that her identity would be revealed in the next moment.
But that person went even further, as if he didn¡¯t even know what ¡®temperance¡¯ was: ¡°Ah¡??Yes, yes, I am the kind of person who would believe it. Who makes me often listen to the stupid words of some people? Just because they swore to me that what I had to deal with were just some ordinary knights What was the result? ambush? It's almost enough to say they ambushed us! "
Although as a noble, he did have the need to be angry - thick blood was still dripping from their bodies, and the sword master who was not wearing armor was particularly miserable, wearing well-tailored noble clothes. It was completely soaked with blood, and it was semi-dry and exuded a pungent smell. Obviously no one is willing to bear the blame of a sword master, even a mage, so this guy is getting more and more aggressive: "That's enough, she just fainted, but this child is a little troublesome Stop, it's not that, go find him." Come here, a priest! And where is the Elector? I have something to say to him."
"Your Excellency is still at his command post"
"Which command post? Do you want me to find them one by one?"
¡°It¡¯s still His Majesty¡¯s office space.¡±
"Hell, find someone to teleport us there By the way, you can't leave, what the heck! Find some people on standby."
The female knight almost gritted her teeth before suppressing the urge to kick him. If the thoughts in her heart could be turned into sounds, then Tahiti might have woken up the whole city, but that 'Saraqi' had no intention of leaving as soon as possible. Fortunately. At this moment, there was a soft click. The space around her shook violently, making her stand unsteady.
¡°Oops!¡± The face of the mage leader changed drastically. Ignoring the still messy Sword Master in front of him, he stepped forward and rushed towards the node of the Tour de France ceremony: "Please leave here quickly, Your Excellency Saraci, the portal has malfunctioned."
So, amid a flurry, the group finally walked down the observatory smoothly. Naturally, there were several maids waiting under the stage who took over the baroness and the child and led them forward. After walking out of several corridors, Tahiti finally found an opportunity. He quietly approached the 'Sword Master' and said softly: "Why not just destroy the portal?"
"That teleportation array is a multi-point type, connecting several locations. It is probably used by them to dispatch troops."
The answer was incomprehensible to Tahiti - if that was the case, shouldn't it be destroyed to prevent the opponent from launching a bigger conspiracy?
"If it is destroyed all at once, doesn't it tell them that we have come in? And so what if it is destroyed? They will definitely repair it immediately, but if there is a slight disturbance in the teleportation circle without affecting the integrity, do you think they will what to do?"
They naturally have to check every node and try one by one. This process must be extremely time-consuming. So it is difficult to detect where the problem lies.
"Moreover, we have just teleported, and there are no problems. Naturally, they will be eliminated immediately. The most important things there have been brought back. So what is there that needs special attention?" The 'Sword Master' said indifferently. It moved, but the voice chuckled in the ear of the female knight: "The teleportation circle is one of the most complex magical creations. If you want to repair it, except for mages who specialize in conjuration, there is no help at all. Even if It¡¯s useless if they have enough manpower, and by the time they realize that the magic line is blocked haha, it will probably be the morning after tomorrow."
"Cunning!" Tahiti grinded her teeth, but couldn't help but asked softly, "What are we going to do next?"
"Do nothing. Rest, rest for a while. Not everyone has the opportunity to enjoy a suite in the palace, right?"
"You're crazy, they will come soon uh." Tahitian bit her lip fiercely, but the voice still caused the maids in front to turn their heads in confusion. Fortunately, these women were obviously not vigilant, and they did not act after realizing that it was not an order. Stop. The guilty female knight could only listen to the man's laughter:
"The so-called organization is actually a very interesting thing. It is like a precise machine. Well, okay, if you don't know what a precise machine is, you might as well imagine it as a person. You know people How do you feel things? I don¡¯t know? It¡¯s through the nervous system that you feel pain of different severity. Whether it¡¯s your touch, smell, vision or taste, it¡¯s actually all pain, just pain in different places. You understand them as different things. The pain felt on the tip of the tongue is sweet, the root is bitter, and the two sides are sour Well, in short, these things are transmitted through nerves, but because they are all pain, so The strong ones will cover the weak ones, and the big ones will ignore the small ones. Have you ever been so painful that your eyes turned black? That's it."
What does that have to do with us?
"Now, they areThere is something big going on, or the resurrection of some emperor, or some other issue. At this time, if one or two communications soldiers forget to report the small matter that someone has just used teleportation, do you think someone will To pay attention? "
Of course no one will pay attention, at least until someone mentions it again, but the mages on the observatory are busy repairing, and they may not even have time to talk But when did this person control the messenger? Moreover, even if he does do that, it may not be discovered The mage's report, the servant's report, or even a casual question may expose everything!
??What on earth does this guy want to do?
From the beginning, every word he said was a complete lie, and his purpose was completely unclear. If he really just wanted that lady he just had to leave that town and teleport. But now, he has entered the palace of Illyria
The palace of Illyria!
Tahitian¡¯s thoughts that had just been relaxed suddenly tightened again!
Such a dangerous assassin has entered this palace that has stood for thousands of years! Although in various legends, this continuous garden and palace has hundreds of various types of magical defenses However, it has not existed for thousands of years. This strict magic system has never had such a terrifying enemy! If he went to His Majesty the Emperor with the face of the 'Sword Master' and the king fell, how could the completely leaderless territories resist Tuminis' attack?
"Don't worry. I'm not interested in that old man's life." The man's voice once again broke through the female knight's thoughts, making her whole body tremble: "What's more, in fact, I don't need to kill him, I'm afraid he has no time left. Moremaybe he's been turned around a long time ago."
The female knight frowned.
Even if you ignore the weird wording, can you believe this guarantee?
But what can you do on your own? Shouting to catch a spy? But what good would that do? Although it was indeed possible to prevent him from causing more damage, everything failed. Neither the young prince nor His Majesty the Emperor himself could escape the control of the Elector Tiberius.
All this is obviously too complicated, and the power she can rely on now is really insignificant, no matter how she thinks about it. It is also impossible to get a satisfactory answer.
So in this tangle, a group of people have been arranged into a small hall. Judging from the scale, this may be a place used to entertain some special guests. There are at least three different layers of defensive formations. The walls are also made of large stone bricks. However, several rooms with fancy styles are magnificently decorated. Although It is not in line with the status of the Marquise, but considering the current situation, this arrangement seems to be quite good.
Although it still makes Tahiti sleepless and uneasy.
In order not to be seen as having any flaws. She even refused the maid's suggestion to take a shower and change clothes, and did not return to the room assigned to her. She simply used magic tricks to cleanse her body instead of taking a shower - and compared to her nervousness, the guy's ease was almost as if It was a joke Enjoying the service of the maid, she changed into a neat soft robe. He casually got a bottle of fine wine from the wine rack in the room and drank it himself. He half-squinted his eyes and didn't know what he was thinking. He was so leisurely that the female knight gritted her teeth but was helpless.
certainly. In fact, Edward is not as laid-back as he seems on the surface.
The silver stars flashed slightly in his eyes, and his field of vision had expanded to the edge of the palace.
Subject to the limitations of productivity in this era. The scale of this thousand-year-old imperial capital is not much larger than Romandy. But in terms of energy level, it is slightly better All of Romandy's magical protections are centered around the academy, but the center of Illyria is within the inner city of the palace. Of course, under the investigation of divine power, most of the obstacles of mortals are meaningless, and even minutely revealed. However, this is not the case in all places. For example, a large area in the center and several specific locations are blocked. It is shrouded in strong energy protection, and the castle is the deepest place.
Even if he didn't deliberately explore it, Edward could feel the rich aura of devil in it However, this richness made his main goal blurred.
So the psychic was a little hesitant.
For Iskandar, a thousand-year-old monster, in fact, from Edward's point of view, there is nothing worth hesitating about. It is understandable that this guy relies on his strength to try to resurrect, but the problem is that he has no eyesight and provokes Edward who just happens to meet him. , as a result, he lost his wife and lost his army. Now, as times have changed, this man relies on the power of the devil to controlEdward still looked down upon the mainland's 'Millennium Emperor', even though he had greatly relied on the power of hell.
But his actions are not just to realize his personal ambitions - Asmodeus's strength has obviously increased a lot now, but the gods have suffered huge losses. Under the decline of one and the other, hell wants to expand. The influence on the main material plane is a matter of success. If it is destroyed, the fragile tacit understanding after working together to deal with the goddess of magic may disappear directly.
Staying in the main material plane, Edward is not afraid of the Lord of the Nine Hells now, but there is no need to easily become enemies with him, right?
His thoughts were interrupted by a light knock on the door.
"Your Excellency Salazi." A maid walked into the room and bowed: "The Marquise has woken up and she asked to see you."
"Let her have a good rest. I have nothing to say to her. By the way, did you leave the child to her?"
"Yes, Your Excellency." The casual reply made the waitress stunned: "But the countess said that she must meet with you, otherwise she will come over in person, so please"
What is this going to do?
"How did you bring me back?"
"Through the portal"
"Don't pretend to be confused for me," the Marquise suddenly raised her voice: "I mean, how on earth did you hold back that Edward! Or what agreement did he reach with you?"
"It's a pity that although he is very powerful, the power of one person cannot be compared with that of a group. My power is combined with the power of twenty mages. Even if he is a real magician, he cannot compete. . So, we finally rescued you, oh, please don¡¯t worry, your child is safe and sound, and you¡¯ll be able to see him soon.¡±
The Marquise was silent.
