"Mego's entourage?" Patriarch Berkley frowned.
"Yes, patriarch," the Temple Knight replied. "But they've already left Winston City after the memorial ceremony this morning. You ordered us to let them go to the Norman family in the north."
"They actually let him go?" Patriarch Berkley's face was gloomy. It was almost night time now, and it was probably too late to chase after him.
Patriarch Berkley knew that Mego had recruited a new entourage, a young man around 18 or 19 years old.
However, he didn't care about this entourage before, so he didn't pay much attention to him.
When Wang Wenyan heard that Ren Xiaosu had left Winston City early, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief. "It's good that he's gone. Let him go to the Norman family."
If Ren Xiaosu was still in Winston City, Wang Wenyan really wouldn't dare to go in …
"You just said that it's best to let the Norman family and the Tudor family put him on the wanted list? What do you mean? " Patriarch Berkley said, "If the Berkley family wants revenge, we don't need someone else's help. He's just a young man."
"Lord Michelle," Wang Wenyan said with a smile, "As long as you can find a way to let the Norman family and the Tudor family put him on the wanted list, then he might be able to help you solve most of the problems. Maybe a large number of the Norman family's wizards will be dead before you even see the Norman family's Knight team."
In Wang Wenyan's opinion, any force that had put Ren Xiaosu on the wanted list would not have a good ending.
Previously, someone had suggested to Wang Shengzhi to kill Ren Xiaosu because everyone felt that this young man would be a hidden danger in the future.
However, Wang Shengzhi rejected the suggestion at that time. On the one hand, they were still friends, so there was no need to become enemies. On the other hand, Wang Shengzhi had asked Zero if there was a safe way to kill Ren Xiaosu, but Zero's answer was no.
Even Zero, who had unparalleled computing ability, had said so, so everyone put the idea aside for the time being.
Many people and forces wanted to study Ren Xiaosu, and as the Wang Clan's current head of field intelligence, Wang Wenyan was probably one of the people who knew Ren Xiaosu the best.
Ever since Ren Xiaosu joined the Razor Sharp Company in the Northwest and wiped out the Soong Clan, the Wang Clan had been keeping a close eye on him. To be honest, Wang Shengzhi did not expect he would save a person who would play an important role in the future of the Barrier Alliance.
Wang Wenyan was there too. If he had known that Ren Xiaosu would be so troublesome in the future, he would have suggested that everyone throw Ren Xiaosu back into the river …
As it turned out, Ren Xiaosu had interfered with Luoyang City's satellite hijacking plan and the Pyro Company's plan to wipe out the supernatural beings at the Sacred Mountain. Fortunately, Luoyang City's plan succeeded in the end. Otherwise, the Wang Clan would not have had such a smooth sailing life.
The head of the Berkley clan could not understand why Wang Wenyan was so afraid of Ren Xiaosu. In the Sorcerer Nation, even people like the patriarchs of the Dudor and Norman clans might not be feared by everyone.
Therefore, the head of the Berkley clan subconsciously thought that Wang Wenyan might not have seen those supernatural powers before, which was why she was making such a fuss.
After all, the concept of the Sorcerer Nation still did not have a clear understanding of the supernatural beings of the Central Plains.
The head of the Berkley clan was recognized as a genius warlock. He started practicing witchcraft at the age of three and became a well-known great warlock at the age of 17. He had also mastered the Song of Flames, an exclusive inherited witchcraft.
Now, he might not even be afraid of the patriarchs of the Dudor and Norman clans.
A conceited person like him did not think that the so-called Young Marshal of Fortress 178 was stronger than him. The head of the Berkley clan felt that since Ren Xiaosu was so young, even if he had mastered supernatural powers, he must have only been cultivating for a few years.
What he did not know was that Ren Xiaosu did not need to cultivate at all. The supernatural beings of the Central Plains were completely different from the warlocks.
However, although the head of the Berkley clan was conceited, he was not a reckless person. A reckless person would not have made such a thorough plan to carry out the northern expedition. He thought for a moment and said, "I'll think of a way to create an opportunity for him to become enemies with the Norman and Dudor clans. Since Mr. Wang says he can save us a lot of trouble, I'll look forward to it."
Wang Wenyan said with a smile, "It's great that you think that way, patriarch. Now that he's heading north, the Norman and Dudor clans should be the ones having a headache. We should celebrate this."
"Haha." The head of the Berkley clan took Wang Wenyan's arm and walked into the city. "Then let's drink our friends from afar tonight!"
…
At this moment, Ren Xiaosu was taking the lead and walking at the front of the caravan. Xiaomei and Little Qian, the "Penniless Duo," followed him firmly on his left and right as though they were his guardians.
Chen Jingshu, An 'an, Chen Cheng, and even the two Sheepmen came out with them.
After Qian Weining came out, he made it clear to his subordinates, "The Berkley clan wants everyone to die, but I've already taken the lead to seek refuge with this Ren Xiaosu. He's a member of the Norman clan, so we'll follow him to find a way to survive.
If any of our brothers don't want to go to the Norman clan, it's fine too. They can leave on their own after a day. As brothers, I hope no one will snitch on me. "
To Qian Weining's relief, these 191 brothers were all willing to follow him to the Norman clan.
At this moment, Qian Weining was still thinking that Ren Xiaosu had been sent by the Norman clan.
On the other hand, the two Sheepmen were a little dumbfounded. Wasn't this the man Sir Meg abducted from the Middle Earth? How did he become a member of the Norman clan?
Ren Xiaosu asked casually while riding on his horse, "Since you have some status in the Burning Legion, you should know a lot of things, right?"
Qian Weining said respectfully, "Sir, please ask me what you want to know. I'll tell you everything I know."
"I'm very curious. What does the Berkley clan have to go against the two top wizard clans, the Norman and the Tudor clans? What exactly is he relying on?" Ren Xiaosu said, "Even if he can make the Norman clan take revenge, I'm guessing the Norman clan won't go along with his plan. If I were the head of the Norman clan, I'd just join hands with the Tudor clan to eliminate Berkley first, and then make a move against the Tudor clan."
Qian Weining thought for a moment and said, "Actually, the Berkley clan still has ten years to prepare for their northern expedition. That's because several of the clans north of Ghent are still hesitating, and the head of the Berkley clan is not fully confident he can go against the patriarchs of the Tudor and Norman clans. In his own words, if he were to fight either one of them, he would only have a 60% chance of winning."
Ren Xiaosu was a little surprised. 60% chance of winning? That was already quite high.
Qian Weining continued, "But a year ago, a guest from the Middle Earth visited the Berkley clan and promised to bring back the weapons used by Fortress 178 17 years ago. As a result, the head of the Berkley clan changed his plans at the last minute."
"A guest from the Middle Earth?" Ren Xiaosu was stunned for a moment. Why were more and more people from the Middle Earth starting to come here? It was obvious this so-called guest was someone from the Wang Clan. Otherwise, who would be so free as to meddle in the affairs of the Warlock Nation?
Ren Xiaosu asked, "So the plan has been brought forward to now? Why do I feel like the Berkley clan is being a little hasty? "
"It's indeed quite hasty." Qian Weining explained, "Actually, the plan is still several months away. But the Great Wizard Kyle of the Tudor clan suddenly plotted the attack on Winston City. The conflict between the two sides suddenly flared up, so the plan has been brought forward again."
Although Qian Weining had already defected, there was no need for Ren Xiaosu to tell him everything.
Therefore, in Qian Weining's opinion, he only defected to Ren Xiaosu for the sake of the Norman clan's background. He did not think Ren Xiaosu was that powerful.
The only people who knew about Ren Xiaosu's strength were Xiaomei, Chen Jingshu, Chen Cheng, and An 'an.
Ren Xiaosu chuckled and said, "It's good that it's brought forward. I happen to be in a hurry."
Qian Weining suddenly asked suspiciously, "Sir, the attack on Winston City has nothing to do with you, right?"
"No." Ren Xiaosu denied it flatly. "What could it have anything to do with me? Do I look like such a ferocious person to you? "
Qian Weining immediately felt relieved. It was not that he was looking down on Ren Xiaosu, but that the incident in Winston City was too terrifying. It was difficult to associate it with a young man.
He asked this mainly because he felt that it was too much of a coincidence that such a thing happened as soon as Ren Xiaosu arrived in Winston City.
At this moment, Mego, who knew the whole truth, looked at Qian Weining with eyes full of sympathy.
Along the way, only two out of ten things Ren Xiaosu said were true, so Mego held back his laughter the whole time. He then listened to Ren Xiaosu fool Qian Weining like a fool.
However, Xiaomei soon realized that Ren Xiaosu had also fooled him in the same way back then, so she could not laugh anymore.
At some point, Xiaomei looked at Qian Weining and even felt like they were in the same boat. Thinking about it carefully, she was not much stronger than Qian Weining.
When night fell, Qian Weining called for everyone to set up camp.
Ever since Qian Weining knew there was no turning back, he became too proactive with his work. He was afraid that he would not be able to cling onto Ren Xiaosu's coattails after the Berkeley family's backing was cut off.
Ren Xiaosu sat by the campfire and felt that something was amiss. He asked Qian Weining, "Haven't you seen anyone from the Mainland before?"
Calculating the time, the first time someone from the Mainland came to the Warlock Nation coincided with the time Wang Shengzhi went to the Northwest. In other words, Wang Shengzhi was already plotting how to keep the Northwest in check at that time.
This made Ren Xiaosu a little worried. Wang Shengzhi was the same as Qing Zhen. If either of them became your opponent, you would have to be on your guard.
Otherwise, the Pyro Company, the Kong Clan, and the Zhou Clan would serve as a warning.
Qian Weining replied, "Sir, that visitor from the Mainland is very mysterious, and very few people have seen his true face. However, I do know one thing, and that's that he should've arrived in Winston in the last two days."
"How do you know?" Ren Xiaosu asked curiously.
"Because the Burning Knights that were transferred from me have all been sent to the armory. The higher-ups have ordered them to pack up all the warehouses within two days." Qian Weining said, "Earlier on, Patriarch Berkeley said that the person from the Mainland would bring gifts. I think the warehouses that have been vacated are probably going to be used to store those 'gifts'."
Ren Xiaosu's eyes lit up. "Little Qian, I always felt that you were too scheming, so I didn't want to recruit you. But from the looks of it now, we really need a smart person like you for our cause! "
Qian Weining blushed. "Sir, you flatter me."
Xiaomei glanced at Ren Xiaosu. 'When you're enemies, you're scheming. But after becoming my subordinate, you're wise. Why do you still have two faces now? You're quite a double standard!'
Of course, he did not dare to say this out loud …
Ren Xiaosu thought for a moment and said, "You guys set up camp here first. I'm going back to Winston City."
Xiaomei was shocked. "Why are you going back to Winston City?"
"I'm going back to see who the person from the Mainland is and what he brought," Ren Xiaosu said seriously. "This is very important for the follow-up plan."
Qian Weining asked, "Are you worried that the Norman family will be tricked by Berkley?"
Ren Xiaosu paused for a moment before saying, "Yes, you guessed right! Alright, have a good rest. I should be back before dawn. "
After saying that, Ren Xiaosu got up and walked into the night.
At this moment, Wang Wenyan, who was drinking happily with Patriarch Berkeley, suddenly felt a chill on her back.
As cautious as Wang Wenyan was, she subconsciously looked around but did not find anything unusual. At this moment, she saw the open windows in the banquet hall and thought that the wind might have come in from outside, so she did not think too much about it.
…
The bright moon in the sky was like a hook. Where there was no industrial pollution, the stars above their heads looked like they had gathered into a sea. It was an extremely spectacular sight.
However, this was not something to be amazed by for the people from the wastelands era. That was because the starry sky above their heads had always been like this since they were born.
Ren Xiaosu had read a description in a book collection in Stronghold 88. It said that humans rarely saw the starry sky before The Cataclysm. Some people even went to the highlands or the polar regions just to see the starry sky.
The people from the wastelands era were not that obsessed with the starry sky. It was probably because the more common something was, the less it was cherished.
Under the starry sky, a burning Knight galloped out of Winston City's north gate and headed north of Ghent City.
The Knight was not wearing armor. Instead, he was dressed in casual cotton and linen attire like a ranger.
He was carrying a long leather tube on his back. This was how the wizards usually used to store documents and letters. This leather tube was waterproof, so the contents would not get wet even on rainy days.
In the week after Wizard Kyle's death, the Winston and Berkley families had withdrawn their military forces in the north to the south.
The terrain in the north was unfavorable. Many of the towns did not even have city walls. Therefore, it seemed like the head of the Berkley family wanted to use Winston City as the first battlefield and rely on the strategic town of Vaduz behind it for defense.
In this way, the Berkley family's supply line would be shortened by a lot, while the Tudors and Normans would have to travel a long way to get here.
The head of the Berkley family planned to wait for the enemy to exhaust themselves, which was a wise choice.
Under the night sky, the burning Knight had a determined look on his face. However, he could vaguely see something approaching in front of him under the moonlight.
The next moment, the burning Knight suddenly reined in his horse and did not move forward. Then, he turned his horse around and galloped in the direction of Winston City.
In less than five or six minutes, a steam locomotive gradually caught up to the burning Knight and rode side by side with him.
Ren Xiaosu, who was in the front of the train, leaned against the window and wondered, "Why did you see me running?"
The burning Knight was speechless. He thought to himself, "If I don't run, I'll be a fool!"
He did not say a word. He clamped his legs hard on the horse's belly and whipped the horse's butt hard.
However, no matter how hard the horse tried, it could not get rid of the steel beast beside it.
Ren Xiaosu felt strange and said, "Why do I feel like you know me … What's that on your back?"
The burning Knight still did not say a word.
Ren Xiaosu sighed. "I'll take it and see for myself."
After saying that, Ren Xiaosu suddenly dispersed the steam locomotive and pounced on the other party. He hit the other party's neck with his knife in the air and knocked him out.
He took the leather tube on the Knight's back and opened it. To his surprise, Ren Xiaosu found that there was a portrait of himself in the leather tube!
There was no Xiao Mei, no Xiao Qian, no Chen Jingshu, no An An, only himself.
Ren Xiaosu frowned. "This person from the Central Plains looks like an old acquaintance!"
Before this, although many things had happened in Winston City, everyone only suspected Xiao Mei at most. No one had suspected him at all.
Now, although he did not know where the burning Knight was going with the portrait, the fact that there was only his portrait in the leather tube was enough to prove that someone knew that Ren Xiaosu was the one who started it all.
Who could deduce it so quickly? It must be someone who knew about the steam locomotive and the Shadow Door, which meant that they were visitors from the Central Plains.
So, who could draw his portrait from memory? It must be someone who had seen him with their own eyes and paid a lot of attention to him.
Although Ren Xiaosu had done a lot of things in the Central Plains, he did not leave much video information during his actions.
"All the more reason for me to go back." Ren Xiaosu chuckled. He wanted to see who was so bold as to not leave immediately after knowing that he was in the Wizard Nation …
And he had even drawn his portrait for the people of the Wizard Nation!
But where was this portrait going? Ren Xiaosu looked to the north. "Is that the Tudor family over there? That's pretty bad. They want the Tudor family to cause trouble for me, and then they want me to help them deal with them? "
Ren Xiaosu did not know much about military strategy, but he could basically guess the enemy's plots and tricks.
He put the portrait into the palace. "The painting is pretty good. When I have time, I'll find someone to color it and give it to Xiao Jin as a gift. I just don't know if she'll like it."
…
The ball was still going on in Winston. The wizards of the Berkley family were having a celebratory banquet in another manor of the Winston family. In order to welcome Wang Wenyan, the Berkley family even invited many of the city's socialites to make the ball look exceptionally colorful.
The patriarch of the Berkley family raised his champagne glass and said to Wang Wenyan, "The informant has already set off. When the time comes, I'll use a double agent who has been in hiding for many years to deliver the message. I'll make the Tudor family remember the name Ren Xiaosu and what he looks like."
Wang Wenyan replied with a smile, "Patriarch, you've prepared more for this war than I expected. In that case, I'll be waiting for the good news. The next batch of weapons will arrive in ten days. Patriarch, as you know, it's been very hard for us to deliver the weapons, and we even have to carefully avoid Fortress 178's detection."
"For friendship." The patriarch of the Berkley family smiled and took a sip of the golden champagne. The bubbles in the glass kept rising, and it looked exceptionally beautiful.
Wang Wenyan downed the champagne in one gulp and suddenly asked, "Patriarch, what are your chances of winning against the Norman and Tudor clans?"
"I only had a 60% chance before, but now that I've made a new friend, I have an 80% chance of winning." The patriarch of the Berkley family was dressed in a decent tuxedo. Some wrinkles had appeared on his middle-aged face, but these wrinkles made him look even more mature and charming.
Especially when he had a confident smile on his face.
Wang Wenyan asked curiously, "Your Excellency Michelle, the Norman and Tudor clans aren't easy to deal with. As far as I know, those two patriarchs wield the black Eye of Truth and have mastered the most powerful witchcraft."
The patriarch of the Berkley family did not seem to intend to discuss this topic with Wang Wenyan. It was better to keep some matters that would determine the outcome of the war to themselves.
A new dance tune started playing in the banquet hall. He smiled and beckoned the socialites over to change the topic. "Let me introduce everyone. This young man is a new friend of our Berkley family. Aren't you going to invite him to dance with you? One Step Away is such a great song. You can't miss it. "
After that, the patriarch of the Berkley family turned to Wang Wenyan and said with a smile, "These are all good girls from Winston. My friend from afar, you must cherish this beautiful moment."
However, hardly had he concluded his sentence when the patriarch of the Berkley family saw that Wang Wenyan was looking behind him with a rigid face.
At that moment, the patriarch of the Berkley family subconsciously felt that something was wrong. His battle instincts were very strong. Without any hesitation, he dodged to the side and reached for his belt for the Eye of Truth.
But it was too late to do anything now.
"Shoot." The patriarch of the Berkley family felt an enormous force on his waist, before he was kicked three meters away.
The banquet hall had a smooth marble floor. The patriarch of the Berkley family couldn't stop himself after he landed and kept sliding on the floor.
At this moment, the patriarch of the Berkley family did not even have the chance to take out the Eye of Truth.
No matter how diligent he was in training, he couldn't resist the absolute power at this moment.
It was already so miserable for a Mage to be approached. Even a genius like Russell couldn't survive it, not to mention a mere patriarch of the Berkley family.
In terms of strength, the patriarch of the Dudor family, the patriarch of the Norman family, and the patriarch of the Berkley family were actually still far from Russell.
While he was sliding, the patriarch of the Berkley family saw a young man in a suit who was waving a saber at Wang Wenyan!
The unparalleled aura seemed to be going to split the sky and the earth. The patriarch of the Berkley family swore that he had never seen such an appalling saber in his life.
It wasn't that the speed of the blade was fast or that it was powerful.
Instead, it was Ren Xiaosu who had snuck in wearing the tailored suit that Yang Xiaojin had custom-made for him. Then when he slashed out with the saber, his movements were too big and caused his suit to burst open.
This movement was too visually impactful!
Unfortunately, Wang Wenyan was much more quick-witted than the patriarch of the Berkley family. Before the edge of the saber reached him, he had already turned into black smoke and flew backward, landing more than ten meters away.
The screams of the socialites broke out in the banquet hall. Someone hurried over to help the patriarch up, while the others immediately took out the Eye of Truth that they carried on their waists, ready to attack Ren Xiaosu.
For example, most Mages wouldn't even bring the Eye of Truth to a banquet like this. After all, the formal attire was close-fitting, and there was no place to put the Eye of Truth. Basically, it was kept by their personal attendants outside the banquet hall, and they didn't have to worry that their personal attendants would steal the stone.
However, the Berkley family was slightly different. They advocated martial arts, and the patriarch of the Berkley family also insisted that all the Mages must carry the Eye of Truth with them like the saber of a Knight.
However, before they could recite the incantation, a figure wearing a white mask fell from the chandelier on the ceiling and decisively knocked out all the Mages one by one.
This hasty battle broke out in an instant. Old Xu's attack was unimaginably fast, so much so that no one could recite the incantation in front of him!
No one knew when the two of them sneaked in, and no one knew what they were up to.
Only Wang Wenyan's heart was in great shock. He had drunk about seven or eight glasses of champagne and probably two glasses of wine earlier, so he was a little tipsy.
However, when he saw Ren Xiaosu's appearance, a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back, and he immediately sobered up!
For Wang Wenyan, this face had the effect of sobering him up!
Didn't they say that Ren Xiaosu had left Winston City? Why did he suddenly come back?!
"Why are you back again?" Wang Wenyan asked with difficulty as he swallowed his saliva.
"Are you surprised?" Ren Xiaosu asked with a smile, "I heard that an old friend of mine has also come to the Mage Nation, so of course I had to come and meet him. Why are you alone? Where's Wang Run? Isn't he here?"
Wang Wenyan said, "It's just me."
"What are you doing here?" Ren Xiaosu asked with a smile, "What new plans does the Wang Clan have? Why didn't you greet us when you passed by Fortress 178? Isn't that a little rude? "
"Old Xu" had already finished his battle. Other than the head of the Berkley clan, there was not a single Mage in the banquet hall who could stand up. They were all lying on the ground.
Actually, Ren Xiaosu quite liked the Mage Nation. After coming here, everyone would take out the Eye of Truth before they made a move. It was just like how the soldiers in the Middle Plains would take out their pistols. However, they were even slower than those in the Middle Plains.
Therefore, many of the Mages were knocked unconscious by "Old Xu" before they could even take out their Eye of Truth.
In the Middle Plains, most of the soldiers had been trained to quickly draw their pistols. Ren Xiaosu reckoned that after he caused a ruckus today, the Mage Nation would have to start practicing how to quickly draw stones again after the stress resistance training.
In the banquet hall, the socialites were carefully huddled in a corner. The head of the Berkley clan had already taken out the Eye of Truth and was about to recite an incantation. But halfway through, "Old Xu" punched him in the chest and interrupted his spellcasting.
As the head of the Berkley clan retreated, he gritted his teeth and tried to recite another incantation. However, Old Xu caught up to him and punched him in the chest again.
The head of the Berkley clan was on the verge of vomiting blood. He was both anxious and angry. But no matter how hard he tried, he would be interrupted by "Old Xu" every time he tried to recite an incantation.
At this moment, a Mage lying on the ground slowly opened his eyes. He quietly sized up his surroundings.
He had indeed been knocked unconscious just now, but it seemed that "Old Xu" had hit the wrong spot, so he woke up very quickly.
The Mage was not in a hurry to get up. Having gone through combat training, he touched his belt and quietly held the Eye of Truth in his hand.
He looked in the direction of the head of the family and White Mask, waiting for an opportunity for them to pause and quickly recite the incantation for the Earthbind Spell, wanting to help his head out of the predicament.
The head of the Berkley clan had long noticed this from the corner of his eye. He felt gratified. The descendants of the family he had nurtured for so many years had not let him down. They were indeed much stronger than the descendants of the other Mage clans.
If it were the descendants of the Mages from other clans, the first thing they would do upon waking up would probably be to scream and run around in panic. How could they be as calm and collected as this young man from the family?
At this moment, the head of the Berkley clan even thought about how he would properly promote this young man in the future. By the way, who was this young man again?
The head of the Berkley clan was a little unsure if this was his son or someone else's son. After all, he had too many sons. This young man was also a marginal figure in the clan and was not a familiar face.
He could not care less. When the Earthbind Spell took effect, the head of the Berkley clan would launch a counterattack.
As he was thinking about this, the Earthbind Spell broke off as soon as it wrapped around Old Xu's body.
Meanwhile, Ren Xiaosu was also stunned. 'What was that thing just now? Why did it disappear before I even exerted any force? Forget it, I'll just continue hammering the head of the Berkley clan. '
At this moment, the head of the Berkley clan was a little dumbfounded. He could not understand what kind of monster he was facing. How could he be so fast?! So strong?
He finally understood why Wang Wenyan said the Young Marshal of Fortress 178 was the ultimate enemy.
He also finally understood why Wang Wenyan said that as long as the Norman and Tudor clans put out a warrant for this person, those two clans would be in big trouble.
Being inexplicably approached by such a person would be a disaster for all the wizards.
No matter how many spells you practiced or how many times you meditated, as long as you could not recite an incantation, you would just be an ordinary infantryman. There was no difference.
The head of the Berkley clan felt resentment in his heart. Only a tenth of the wizards had come to the ball tonight. If there had been more, they would not have been so easily taken advantage of.
However, since the other party had the ability to take his life at will, why didn't he just kill him?
Although it was a little humiliating to say this, the head of the Berkley clan was very sure that the other party did have the ability to kill him now. It was just that he did not want to do so.
The head of the Berkley clan was also a hot-blooded person. After he knew that reciting the incantation was just a dream, he simply threw the golden Eye of Truth to Ren Xiaosu and roared, "Kill me or torture me as you please! Why must you humiliate me?!"
Sure enough, only after he threw away the Eye of Truth did Ren Xiaosu give him a chance to speak.
In the end, the Eye of Truth flew into Ren Xiaosu's hand in a parabola. Ren Xiaosu then threw the Eye of Truth back into the hands of the head of the Berkley clan. "Just stand there obediently. You just have to focus on fighting Norman and Tudor!"
The head of the Berkley clan was stunned. He had been in charge of the top wizard clans for so many years, but this was the first time he was being used as a fucking tool.
So the other party did not kill him because he wanted the Berkley clan to deal with Norman and Tudor?!
The head of the Berkley clan still wanted to say something, but Ren Xiaosu had already ignored him. Ren Xiaosu turned to Wang Wenyan and said, "The Wang Clan is going to attack the Northwest, isn't it? That's why they are so eager to unify the Wizard Kingdoms. Only then will the Wizard Kingdoms have the spare power to restrain us."
Wang Wenyan did not say anything, as if she did not want to answer the question.
Ren Xiaosu sighed and said, "Why do they have to start a war? Isn't it good for us to live in peace?"
Wang Wenyan said, "I'm just going out to travel and see the outside world."
"Traveling with the guns and cannons of the Wang Clan? There's no such logic in the world. "Ren Xiaosu said with mixed feelings," I know that you are a diplomat of the Wang Clan and will certainly not admit what you are going to do, but I want to remind you that every one of you now determines the fate of tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of people. "
Wang Wenyan shook her head. "The people of the Barrier Alliance have suffered for a long time. Only unification can change all of this."
"I don't deny your point of view." Ren Xiaosu said, "But what if the Wang Clan is doing is too radical?"
"How can there be no sacrifice and bloodshed in a revolution?" Wang Wenyan said coldly.
"Sacrifice and bloodshed by others." Ren Xiaosu's voice also turned cold. "I still believe that there's nothing wrong with the unification of the Barrier Alliance, but you can't betray your compatriots when the expeditionary army heads south! The Pyro Company is indeed your enemy, but they have stuck to their bottom line and bled for the sake of the Barrier Alliance. They should die on the battlefield, not in a conspiracy. "
"Is there a difference?" Wang Wenyan said, "The outcome is good, but does the process matter?"
Off to the side, the head of the Berkley clan said with a livid expression, "What are you two talking about?!"
Ren Xiaosu glanced at him. Then "Old Xu" pulled the head of the Berkley clan aside.
The head of the Berkley clan was speechless.
At first, he thought the other party was here to assassinate him. But later on, he realized that was not the case.
Then he thought the other party was here to rob the Berkley clan of their Eye of Truth, but that was not the case either.
In the end, he thought he could at least say a few words. But he realized the other party did not even intend to give him a chance to speak.
There was no negotiation, no criticism, nothing at all. By pulling him aside, the other party was trying to tell him to stay here quietly. There was nothing for him to do here.
But the Berkley clan was the main character in this city!
Ren Xiaosu smiled at Wang Wenyan and said, "Trying to stall for time? I'm sure the Burning Knight Group has already brought their troops to surround us, and the other Berkley clan wizards are also on their way here. But are you confident that you can stop me? "
"You can't stop me either," Wang Wenyan said coldly.
Before she finished speaking, Ren Xiaosu's legs suddenly exerted force. The Winston socialites who were hiding in the corner only felt their vision blur, and then the young man who was originally standing in the middle of the dance floor had already arrived in front of Wang Wenyan.
The faster Ren Xiaosu moved, the slower they felt themselves. Everyone felt as if they were at the bottom of a swimming pool that was several meters deep. Everyone was moving slowly because of the water's resistance. Only Ren Xiaosu's speed was normal.
It was as if they were creatures living in two different dimensions.
The head of the Berkley clan did not say anything else. He only had one question in his mind. 'Are all the people from Middle Earth this strong, or is it just this young man in front of me?'
He glanced at "Old Xu" who was not far away from him and rubbed the ruby ring on his right thumb with his fingers.
But in the end, the head of the Berkley clan seemed to have given up on one of his plans. He had some new ideas!
At this moment, when Ren Xiaosu arrived in front of Wang Wenyan by a hair's breadth, Wang Wenyan's figure dissipated like smoke.
Ren Xiaosu slashed at her with the black saber. However, although the black saber was the sharpest weapon in the world, it could not cut through invisible objects.
"This ability of yours is really amazing for escaping." Ren Xiaosu sighed. He had to admit that he actually did not have a good way to deal with Wang Wenyan.
Unless Wang Yun also came to the Sorcerer Nation, he would not be able to catch Wang Wenyan.
Wang Yun, who could control the air, was Wang Wenyan's natural nemesis.
The black smoke did not continue to stay in the banquet hall. Like a thin gauze curtain, it flew out of the window and blended into the night.
Without any harsh words, the battle ended quietly just like that.
"Boring." Ren Xiaosu sighed. He glanced at the head of the Berkley clan and patiently said, "Fight well, or I'll twist your head off."
The head of the Berkley clan was speechless.
Ren Xiaosu swaggered out of the manor with Old Xu. At first, he walked at a calm pace, but after taking only two steps, he hurriedly sprinted, fearing that the people behind him would chase after him.
Tonight was considered a lucky night for Ren Xiaosu. He had taken advantage of the other party's banquet to launch a sneak attack. If the other party had been fully prepared, he would have been very uncomfortable if one or two Great Wizards chanted deadly spells.
In particular, the Berkley clan's wizards were all as determined as warriors.
That night, a grand manhunt was launched in Winston City. However, the head of the Berkley clan knew very well that the Burning Knight could not catch Ren Xiaosu.
After Ren Xiaosu left, he stood in the banquet hall for a long time before he suddenly gave an order. All the wizards present tonight must keep this matter a secret. The family's honor was already secondary. This was to prevent the Norman clan and the Tudor clan from sensing Ren Xiaosu's strength!
Wang Wenyan was nowhere to be found, but the head of the Berkley clan deeply agreed with what he said. The Norman clan and the Tudor clan had to become enemies with Ren Xiaosu, so that the scales of victory could be tilted to the Berkley clan.
For this reason, he even asked the Burning Knight to lock down the entire Winston villa. Except for the wizards of his clan, everyone who had witnessed the incident tonight must be put under house arrest here until the war was over!
The head of the Berkley clan considered himself a hero of the generation. If he could only be incompetent and furious when encountering such a thing, he would not be qualified to start this civil war.
As the head of a top wizard clan, he had long learned to abandon his personal gains and losses and always consider things based on interests.
In this war, the intervention of the forces of Middle-Earth would certainly increase the variables, but if they were used well, the Berkley clan could benefit from it.
Thinking of this, the head of the Berkley clan made a decision.
However, at this moment, a rumble came from the city wall in the distance. The rumble was mixed with the sound of chaos. The Burning Knight outside the villa was also in an uproar.
It sounded like … the city wall of Winston City had collapsed again!
The head of the Berkley clan was speechless. "What the f * ck …"
