"Let them search." Salin did not think that he had done anything. He had been learning from Eleanor these days and had no time to bother with Bivano's men.
"My Lord, could it be Nelis..." Zola reminded Salin again. He knew that Nelis was not to be trifled with, and her methods were stronger than his. Nelis had asked for a hall alone, so she must be carrying out some secret business. The disappearance of the soldiers might have something to do with her.
Salin frowned and said to Zola, "Open the door!"
He vaguely felt that something was wrong. If this was Nelis's doing, he would have to make a move against Bivano immediately. Five thousand soldiers were not that easy to deal with. More importantly, killing Bivano would completely offend the Agares family. Although Cloud Flow wanted to take back the power of the Agares family, there were some things that no one could take back.
In Fire Dance City, Salin understood this point.
For example, even if Salin's Metatlin City was destroyed, it would only be a huge loss for him. With the support of Seriger Island, Salin could make a comeback.
Behind the Agares family, there must be a similar behemoth.
Therefore, Salin wanted to settle the matter in Sacred Rock City before coming here. Otherwise, he might encounter the Agares family somewhere while walking outside. It was best to do this without anyone noticing. But if Nelis touched Bivano's men, Salin would not back down no matter what.
The door was pushed open by Zola alone. Outside the door were two hundred soldiers, a battalion. These soldiers were fully armed and were the most difficult to deal with sword and shield bearers. Those magic shields could withstand low-level magic attacks. In the last battle, Salin clearly saw that Bivano had put in a lot of effort to deal with the mages.
"Who is the commander!" Zola was familiar with the military system of Cloud Flow and the Titans. The captain was called the commander.
"Your Excellency..." A low-level officer stepped forward.
Zola interrupted him, "This palace belongs to my Lord. I don't know the Titans' attitude towards mages. But let me tell you, you can bring people in to search. If you find anything, the Lord will naturally negotiate with your little duke. If you don't find anything, don't leave. Leave your heads behind. Please come in. "
After Zola finished speaking, he turned sideways and made an inviting gesture.
His words were very unreasonable. If they could find the missing soldiers in Salin's hall, Salin would talk to Bifano. If they couldn't find them, they would all be killed. Of course, it wasn't Salin who told Zola to say this. Zola was just acting according to Cloud Flow's rules and showing his might to these ordinary soldiers.
The captain's expression immediately turned ugly. It wasn't that they didn't want to search, but if they wanted to search, they had to pay the price. He had seen Zola in action. That bow and five arrows had directly subdued a Great Magician. It was not something he could fight against at all. The two hundred people behind him might not be able to defeat Zola even if they worked together. Not to mention that there were two Great Magicians in the hall.
If he went back to gather more people, it would be different from what the young Duke had instructed, and it would really annoy the young mage. Salin's back was facing the door as he sat in the middle of the empty hall, continuing his conversation with Eleanor without turning his head. He discovered that it was much more convenient for him to do things with followers. He was too lazy to say those words to these soldiers, but Zola could.
It was a meaningless conversation and a blatant threat.
The captain gritted his teeth and bowed to Zola, saying, "Thank you." With that, he waved his hand, and the soldiers behind him immediately walked towards the door. Zola did not stop them, and looked at them with a cold smile.
Salin had spatial equipment. Even if he killed a few people, he could hide the corpses, and there was nothing to be found in this hall. But these soldiers still came in. After the search was complete, they would just wait for death. But could Salin slaughter these soldiers? Bifano was a little too overconfident.
Although Zola was not a mage, his hearing was excellent. There was a faint sound coming from the captain's helmet, and it was obvious that he had received Bifano's orders.
Although the hall was not small, all the items had been thrown out by Salin, so it was empty. The two hundred soldiers did not even take ten minutes to finish searching, but of course, they did not find anything.
The two hundred knife and shield bearers looked back. Zola stood at the door with his sword, obviously not planning to let them leave.
"Sir Mage, we also …" The leader of the cavalry came before Salin, wanting to talk to this young mage. Salin lifted his eyelids and looked at him, cutting him off.
"I understand. Don't worry, you will die painlessly." As Salin finished speaking, the entire hall was filled with black fog. The magic formation on the ground was activated, and Salin's seat happened to be at the core of the formation.
Bifano had brought so many people with him. How could Salin not prepare in advance in this enclosed space? This low-level spell, Poison Fog, was not very lethal, but it had a wide range and lasted for a long time. It was terrifying to use in this kind of space.
Zola retreated out of the hall and slammed the door shut. In the Poison Fog, he would not be hurt, but it would consume sword aura.
Eleanor looked at Salin in shock. She was a great mage, and the Poison Fog could not hurt her. She could also see everything inside the Poison Fog. Salin still had a smile on his face when he attacked. This young mage was really decisive in killing.
Sicar curled his lip and walked to Salin's side, sitting down as well. The Poison Fog could not get close to her at all. There was a clean space around her body.
"You're going to kill so many people for Nelis?" Sicar asked Salin in dissatisfaction.
"What about you?" Salin asked.
Sicar thought about it and did not say anything. If she had a choice, she would have done the same, just not as ruthless as Salin. Nelis was one of them, and Bifano's subordinates had come this many at once. Of course, they did not have good intentions.
Inside the Poison Fog, miserable cries echoed in the hall. Some low-level swordsmen had not been poisoned, but they could not see the direction in the Poison Fog. They could only rely on their memory, waving their double-edged swords and charging towards Salin.
High-level swordsmen could hold their breath for more than half an hour, but the Poison Fog could seep in through the pores. This was something swordsmen could not resist. If it were any longer, all the soldiers would die from the poison without Salin even having to do anything. These low-level officers would definitely fight with their lives on the line.
Salin sneered. Bifano had six hundred swordsmen and shields, prepared to fight against mages. These heavy infantry's armor and shields were all magic equipment. Unless it was a great mage, ordinary low-level mages would definitely be tortured to death by these soldiers.
But mages were not fools who could only release fireballs. This kind of anti-magic equipment was still too low-level, and was useless against AoE magic like the Poison Fog. Even if it was not the Poison Fog, a large AoE fire spell would be enough to burn these soldiers to death.
Magic armor made of metal had a natural flaw, which could not be made up for by any means.
Of course, in the eyes of mages, things like Pi Gold and Thorium were not considered metals. Besides, even the Qinyin Empire could not afford to use Pi Gold and Thorium to equip an army. They could not even afford to equip a company of two hundred people.
The cavalry was shocked and angry. He was a high-level swordsmen, and the Poison Fog could not affect him for now. But he could not see anything in front of him, and could only hear the breathing of the mage about six steps ahead. He dropped his shield and double-edged sword, drew his sword, and took a step forward.
With this step, he felt his legs go numb, and then an uncontrollable pain. A sharp object blocked his feet and directly cut off his legs.
How could Salin not be on guard against a high-level swordsman covered in magic armor? The water in the gourd had long been lying in ambush, and silently took care of this troublesome guy.
Shika sat beside Salin, took out his boomerang, and threw it outwards. Every time he threw it, a nearby swordsman's throat would be cut off. Eleanor's face paled. Without the bracelet, she would definitely not be able to dodge Shika's boomerang. Now she understood that this young mage was very polite to her.
The people around this mage were all very good, and they worked well together.
"Am I very cruel?" Salin tilted his head and asked Eleanor.
Eleanor nodded. Salin smiled and said, "Just a few days ago, I was troubled by this kind of thing, but then I thought it through. Some people are doing even more cruel things, but they want to go down in history. I am still me. As long as they don't provoke me, I won't do such things. I didn't invite them into this hall. Before coming in, Zola had already made it very clear. "
"You really don't have to feel guilty …" Eleanor said half a sentence, and suddenly stopped. She didn't know why she was suddenly comforting Salin. Even if she didn't hate this mage, she was his captive.
"You can see it. Yes, I feel guilty. Murderers will always feel guilty. This is normal. If I don't feel guilty, I will become like the person I hate. If I feel guilty, it won't do me any good. "
Eleanor listened quietly. Salin's voice was very young, and it didn't match the content of what he was saying.
"I spared you because I am still young. Eleanor, you are really lucky. "Salin sighed and said.
Lucky? Eleanor smiled bitterly. Her family was already gone, and she was alone. It was probably impossible for her to return to the Elven Plane. She still had a long life, and she didn't know what kind of future she would have in the Myers Continent.
"Salin, what if Bifano leads people to attack?" Shika stopped Salin from expressing his emotions. She raised a very practical question.
"Nothing, Nelis has already made her move. I have to teach her a lesson later." In the depths of Salin's soul, he felt the joy from Nelis. It was the comfort after killing.
