Abel sorted out his elven perfume and cologne. He was ready to go to the Grand Ducal Palace in the morning to deliver the elven perfume he promised Grand Duke Edwina. Archie, the half-elf coachman, drove him out of the mansion and towards the Grand Ducal Palace.
On the carriage, Abel began to have some doubts about why he exploded after being threatened by Prince Adolf last night. Although his meditation jade heart had cleared his murderous aura, his excessive murderous aura had also caused his temper to flare up. Now that he had calmed down, he realized the problem.
The only way to solve this problem was to train his power of the will. Abel's power of the will had been growing too fast recently. Every time he used the 'soul potion', his power of the will would increase a little. If it was through meditation, it could be completely controlled. However, it would take a long time to fully control the power of the will.
An unstable power of the will would not be able to control the murderous aura. Although the aura of a Knight captain was powerful, without a stable power of the will, it would become a runaway horse. That was why he had lost control this time.
At that moment, Abel felt Archie slowing down the carriage. They were still some distance away from the Grand Ducal Palace, so he couldn't help but ask, "Archie, why did you slow down?"
"Sir, a carriage in front of us collided with another carriage. The goods were scattered all over the ground. The road is blocked!" Archie's voice emerged from outside the carriage.
"Archie, don't stop. Let's go another way!" Abel couldn't help but shake his head. At the same time, he felt a sense of alertness in his heart. He was just about to take this road, but it was blocked. He couldn't stay here any longer.
"Yes, Sir!" Archie turned the carriage into an alley on the right. It was called an alley, but it was actually a side street. It was only a little narrower than the main road.
The silver white carriage sped along the stone road. However, Abel felt something was wrong. Soon after they entered the alley, there was no sound around them. It was like the carriage was isolated from the world.
"Archie, stop!" Abel yelled.
The carriage stopped under Abel's yell. Archie also realized something was wrong, so he lowered his voice and said, "Sir, please open the protection circle of the carriage. It's dangerous here!"
"Master Bennett, my Lady has invited you to be a guest. Please come out of the carriage and follow us!" A voice emerged from all directions. It was shocking.
Abel knew it was a magic circle. Although he didn't know what kind of magic circle it was, he knew it had the function of an isolation circle. Its range was much bigger than his little isolation circle.
"Sir, I'll open a path for you!"
Archie's eyes flashed, and a white combat qi glow emerged from his body. When Archie became Abel's coachman, Abel knew this half-elf was not an ordinary person. He guessed Archie was a bodyguard Grand Duke Edwina had prepared for him. It seemed like Archie was also a Knight Captain.
Archie had always felt guilty for not being able to save Abel in time when Abel was attacked last time. His half-elf body was already thicker than an elf's. Under the support of his combat qi, his body expanded like a balloon. He endured the tearing pain and reached under the shaft of the carriage. A long elven sword appeared in his hand.
"Archie, don't be impulsive!" Abel yelled as he opened the carriage door. He couldn't stop Archie anymore.
Archie ignited his combat qi with all his might. He did not use any of it for defense. Instead, he used all of it to attack. This was the most extreme way to use combat qi. It was only used when you were risking your life.
Archie rushed forward with an unstoppable momentum. A giant sword qi followed his sword and slashed into the air. The sword qi made a soft whistling sound as it slashed through the air. Afterward, a transparent light shield appeared in the air. The sword qi and the light shield collided. Strangely, no sound was made. The light shield only shook a little, and the sword qi's power was completely dissipated.
"Sir, this is an intermediate magic circle!" Although Archie knew he could not break the intermediate magic circle in front of him, he still unleashed all of his combat qi to attack the light shield.
At that moment, a giant burning stone ball rushed towards Archie. Archie's eyes were filled with despair. This was an elemental Druil spell.
"Sir, take care!" Archie's Dou Qi was as dazzling as the sun. Like a moth to a flame, he rushed towards the huge burning stone ball. The moment he hit the burning stone ball, the explosion of the stone ball blasted Archie's body into pieces.
"Archie!" Abel did not expect Archie to die so gloriously in such a short time. Although he did not spend much time with Archie, Abel had a good impression of this cheerful half-elf. He still remembered the pride on Archie's face when he introduced himself as a half-elf.
Abel silently put the city defense circle control card back into his portal bag. If he did not try to use the city defense circle control card, he would not have missed the chance to save Archie. This area was surrounded by an unknown intermediate magic circle. Even the city defense circle control card could not connect to the main defense circle of Angstrom City.
An elf wrapped in a black robe appeared on the side of the carriage. Another elf in a black robe appeared, one after another. A total of 8 black-robed elves surrounded the carriage.
"Master Bennett, your coachman was too impulsive. I'm deeply sorry!" A black-robed elf said with a bow.
Since there was no longer a magic circle, Abel could clearly sense that the black-robed elf in front of him was a beginner Druil. The other 7 black-robed elves were all Knight Commanders.
With such a luxurious lineup, Abel knew who sent their men to capture him. Other than Prince Adolf, no other force could get so many elven Knight Commanders and official Druil to help.
"You shouldn't have killed Archie!" Abel's voice was very soft. It was almost like he was mumbling to himself.
"Master Bennett, what are you talking about?" The black-robed Druil frowned. Abel's expression did not look like he was helpless.
"You shouldn't have killed Archie!" Abel's voice was a little louder.
"Master Bennett, it's just a coachman. It's fine if I killed him!" The black-robed Druil heard Abel's words clearly, and a mocking smile emerged from the corner of his mouth. The death of a coachman was enough to make the master in front of him panic.
"You shouldn't have killed Archie!" Abel's voice was getting louder and louder. His voice was already echoing around the intermediate magic circle.
"Master Bennett, my patience is limited. Please come with us!" The black-robed Druil took out a black chain. The chain was densely packed with tiny patterns. It was a sealing chain. As long as you put it on, your combat qi and mana would be completely suppressed. It was a torture tool used in large cities to capture important criminals.
"You shouldn't have killed Archie!" Abel's voice was accompanied by a dragon's roar. This dragon's roar was not made by him. Instead, it was caused by his power of the Will going out of control.
Abel's original plan was to use his aura to intimidate the black-robed Druil. As long as there was a chance, he would be able to deal a fatal blow to the black-robed Druil in front of him. Therefore, Abel had been increasing his aura over and over again. However, as he kept repeating his words, the dragon's roar became even more powerful.
Giant dragons were the most powerful life form in the Holy Continent. They rarely appeared outside of the Dragon Abyss, but their legends were passed down everywhere in the Holy Continent. Every life form instinctively feared them.
The dragon's roar was the roar of a giant dragon. Although Abel's dragon's roar was not even 1% of a real giant dragon's roar, the black cloaked druid in front of him was not some powerful elite. He was only a beginner druid, and the 7 black cloaked elven warriors on the side were even worse.
