It had been more than two months since the battle on the third floor of the underground city.
Van 'er the Fifth had sent out the three heads of the Church to ambush Rob at the entrance from the third to the fourth floor. They wanted to use force to force Rob to hand over Lolo. However, the final result was one dead, one injured, and one escaped.
Saruman, the former head of the cardinals, was pierced through the chest by a spear made of lightning and died on the spot. Chief Judge Osman of the Court of Heresy was seriously injured and returned to Saint Massa to recuperate in seclusion. Meanwhile, Rogge, the leader of the First Holy Knight Regiment, was scared out of his wits by Roland's combat skills and amazing learning ability. He actually fled halfway through the battle.
It was because of his sudden departure that Osman was injured.
The battle started and ended quietly. For some special reason, neither side seemed to have the intention to publicize it.
However, this did not diminish the far-reaching impact of the battle. The old forces of the Church led by Van 'er the Fifth suddenly became silent after the battle. The joint arrest warrant was still there, but the Church seemed to lack interest. Perhaps Van' er the Fifth could not find any good ideas. Even if they found traces of Lolo, it would be useless if they could not get past Rob.
As for the future Supreme Magus Your Honor, apart from achieving the strategic goal of hurting the Church, the battle itself had brought him many benefits.
During this period of time, he had been coming into contact with new rules and power systems every day. Whether it was divine power or secret force, he was learning them all. However, most of his research was still at the stage of thinking and derivation.
The battle with the Church's Triumvirate had forced him to integrate these bits and pieces of knowledge into his actual combat skills. Under the immense pressure of death, he continuously stimulated his potential. He had almost forcibly compressed the progress that would have taken years into a short battle, and finally completed the transformation of his body. Every time he fought, he would become stronger.
As his opponent, Rogge, felt this the most. It was precisely because of this that the leader of the First Holy Knight Regiment was afraid and had no choice but to escape.
This terrifying rate of improvement was also inseparable from the strength of the opponents. Roger and Saruman were both top-notch experts who were famous in their own regions, and they would not easily make a move, not to mention the three of them teaming up against one person. With their status, it was very difficult for them to do such a thing, unless it was done in an underground place where no one knew about.
Such a powerful training partner was hard to come by. While the three wanted to defeat Rob and take Lolo away, the future Supreme Magus Your Honor was also using the pressure from the three to train himself.
In a sense, Rob, who had mastered magic, divine power, secret force, and a part of the rules of the Force, could no longer be considered a pure mage. It was just that he could not find a new class to define him for the time being.
On the carriage heading to Armored Rock City, the future Supreme Magus Your Honor was playing with a small piece of oak. The oak was rolling between his fingers. The next moment, Rob gently tossed the oak up and placed his palm flat on the ground. Then, a shocking scene appeared. The oak did not fall due to gravity, but quietly floated in mid-air.
At this time, the Lord of Evernight was leaning quietly beside the carriage. The future Supreme Magus Your Honor did not have a staff in his hand, nor did he have any other magic devices.
In other words, he was relying on his own strength to make this small piece of oak float.
However, this time was very short, only about six or seven seconds. After that, the oak fell back into someone's hand.
Rob opened his eyes. "There's still something wrong."
Lolo comforted him. "It's only been a little more than a month, and you've already increased the time from two seconds to six seconds. That's already very impressive."
"I have a rough understanding of the rules of the secret art. What's left is to study it in depth bit by bit. There's no shortcut. However, there's still too little information about the Force. I've been searching for it for two months and still haven't found a direction."
Luo Bu's current understanding of the Origin Force came from the experience of fighting the giant of light at the summit of Anarepu, as well as a portion of the research results given to him by Matata.
As the most outstanding secret art master of that era, Matata had already touched the edge of the Force. Otherwise, he would not have been able to design the secret brooch. Unfortunately, what he grasped was only a fragment of the rules. The future Supreme Magus Your Honor combined the two clues together, but still could not deduce the sequence of the Force.
Lolo said, "Didn't you say that there's some kind of Force virus in my body? T-If that's the case …" The girl's voice suddenly became softer like a mosquito. She blushed and said, "I … I can let you study my body."
Rob put the oak aside and patted Lolo's head lovingly. He smiled and said, "It's fine. I'm just doing it out of curiosity. Since we've decided to live in seclusion together, these things will soon be useless. It doesn't matter whether you know about it or not. I heard that Armored Rock City's honey wine is very famous. Let's go there and have a drink after this."
The girl nodded.
The carriage slowly drove through the city gate. Lolo lifted the window and looked curiously at the shadow cast by the top of her head.
Armored Rock City was known as the most majestic city in the north. It had an extremely long history and was once the capital of the Black Dragon Dynasty. The latter had briefly unified the entire human world, but following the death of the founding emperor, the new successor could not suppress the local forces. Soon, the country fell into civil war and the country was torn apart. Years ago, the Reinhardt family rebelled and overthrew the descendants of the Black Dragon Dynasty's royal family.
In order to eliminate the influence of the remaining forces of the Black Dragon Dynasty as much as possible, the Lionheart Empire established its capital in New Tylte. However, Armored Rock City had a good foundation and a good geographical location. Under the deliberate suppression of Reinhardt the First, it was dispirited for a period of time. When Reinhardt the Second came to power, the old party was mostly cleaned up. After regaining the support of the empire, it quickly became prosperous again.
The headquarters of the Siathos Chamber of Commerce was in Armored Rock City. Viscount Wales, the third in command of the Chamber of Commerce, had previously met the two on Six Flowers. The fat noble even invited the two to his house as guests, but under the current circumstances, it was obviously not suitable for them to meet again.
Lolo followed Lulu's instructions and asked around about the Parrish family in the southern suburbs. As expected, she soon found the destination of this trip.
