…
In the washroom in the corner of the restaurant, the fragrance of flowers and plants covered the smell of the bathroom.
Lucien locked the door and pretended to tidy himself up in front of the mirror. He carefully checked the bathroom and waited for dozens of seconds before he took out a fist-sized crystal ball and a coldsteel dagger from the left side of his pocket.
Lucien slightly cut his left wrist with the dagger, and the cold feeling came to his brain. Drops of blood dripped on the counter.
Then, Lucien extended his right index finger and wrote some strange symbols in the air. Under the guidance of the finger, the crimson blood wriggled and gathered into a not-so-complicated magic line structure.
It was the magic circle that Lucien used to cover the magic waves generated by the crystal ball.
Although it was hard to say how effective the magic circle would be if it was set up in a hurry, the ominous feeling in Lucien's heart stopped him from thinking too much.
The strange behavior of Baron Habearo and Fogtown made Lucien believe that he would be in great danger if he hesitated.
The magic circle made of blood slowly lit up, and the beautiful crystal ball in the center of the room was enshrouded in the magical light.
Lucien reached out his hands and touched the crystal ball, while he murmured a mysterious spell.
The crystal ball gradually became dark, and the bright but blurry stars lit up inside, as if they were reflections of the starry sky at night.
This was the most unique and difficult skill of the school of Astrology, Astrology.
After Lucien became a sorcerer and got the crystal ball, he had mastered the elementary astrology knowledge and the astrophysics knowledge. Lucien's results were even more accurate and clear than the elementary astrology knowledge.
Lucien was even more confused about fate.
As the stars streaked across the crystal ball, the stars in the crystal ball started to form a special astrology.
Lucien frowned and murmured to himself, "According to the astrology, the Host Star of Destiny is indeed showing signs of dimming. Danger is looming over it all the time. And it seems that as time goes by, the danger is getting stronger and stronger. My Host Star of Destiny might even fall! "
Although Lucien's elementary astrology was better than other sorcerers of the same level, he could only get vague results about the danger, such as what the danger was, where it came from, why it was getting stronger and stronger, and who the enemy was.
Even a Prophet's astrology wasn't precise enough. It was filled with vagueness and uncertainty. That was the mystery of fate.
Putting away the crystal ball, Lucien took out the dark red Fire Weaver Bracelet from his right pocket and put it on. Then he put the Ice Revenger ring on his left index finger.
The guards only took away the Sword of Vigilance, but Lucien was afraid that the baron would be able to recognize the magic items, so he took off the other two magic items in advance and hid them well, except for Sun's Corona, which was already covered by his clothes.
Lucien was not sure whether the danger was coming from the baron or not. It was very likely that the danger would come after I left the castle. Lucien didn't want to kill the baron just because he felt that he was in danger.
Lucien thought to himself, "But if I wait any longer, it will be too late when the real danger comes!"
… …
The idea of not hurting innocent people and the instinct of self-protection were fighting in Lucien's mind.
Lucien knew the urgency of the situation, so he did not hesitate. He hid the dagger in his sleeve and scooped out some water from the reservoir.
Lucien thought to himself, "Just like Natasha said, I can't be hesitant!"
Lucien thought to himself, "Since I can't be sure, I'll do it myself! If I'm wrong, I'll still have a chance to apologize. But if I don't do anything, I won't be able to do anything! The dead don't need to do anything at all! "
Lucien thought to himself, "I have to take this opportunity to kill my Host Star of Destiny before it comes!"
Opening the wooden door of the washroom, Lucien walked to the dining table with his hands hanging down.
However, as soon as Lucien took a few steps forward, he found that neither Habearo nor Kaelyn was at the table. Lucien became more alert and asked, "Where are the baron and Kaelyn?"
Even though such a change had made Lucien feel that he had to hurry up, his tone was still calm and natural.
"The baron is not feeling well. Kaelyn is helping him to the bedroom to take some potion. They'll be back soon," Betty answered, a bit worried about Habearo's health.
Lucien slightly nodded, "Then I'll go to see the baron."
Lucien thought to himself, "Is it because of Pathetique that he lost control of his emotions? Or is he going to kill me?" If it was the former, Lucien decided to break in and kill him before he recovered. But if it was the latter, Lucien decided to take him by surprise.
Of course, the baron could also be a hero with a kind heart. If that was the case, what Lucien needed was an apology, but it was nothing compared to the danger he would face.
"Mr. Evans, the baron will be back soon." Betty stood up and looked at Lucien in surprise. So did Simon, Joanna, and Wise.
Lucien did not answer them. Instead, he turned around and walked out of the dining room.
When Betty and the others were at a loss, Lucien walked to the door and asked the guards, "Where's the baron's bedroom? I want to visit him. "
"Mr. Evans, the baron asked you to stay in the dining room." Two soldiers crossed their ceremonial spears to block the door and answered in a polite but emotionless tone.
Lucien nodded and smiled. Suddenly, he moved and bumped into one of the soldiers. The dagger hidden in his sleeve stabbed at the soldier's arm.
The dining room was silent. No one expected that Lucien would attack directly.
Was he crazy?!
The dagger he got from Longsang Aaron stabbed into the soldier's body. However, the soldier, who should have been weak, pulled out his sword and slashed at Lucien with full strength. The muscles on his face bulged as if they were about to burst.
Also, what was flowing out of his arm was not blood, but pale yellow pus, which smelled terrible.
Lucien was agile. He easily dodged and cut the soldier's neck with the dagger. At the same time, he rolled to the side and dodged another soldier's spear.
"Murder … Evans killed someone!"
Even Simon and Joanna, who were always calm and capable, were dumbfounded.
However, they immediately saw that Mr. Evans' body was emitting a pale holy light, which made the soldier who was holding the spear scream in pain. Then, the soldier collapsed on the ground, his body rotting quickly, as if he had been dead for a long time.
"What's this …" Simon asked subconsciously. If the first soldier's body could be blamed on Mr. Evans' dark dagger, then the second soldier's change gave him a bad feeling.
Lucien put away the dagger and picked up the sword, Vigilant, and answered calmly, "Zombie. Mr. Mars, do you know where the baron's bedroom is? "He still knew too little about the magic of Necromancy! Although the dagger was more powerful than Vigilant, Lucien, who had been training with John and Natasha, could use the sword better.
Mars was trembling in fear. Both Lucien's sudden murder and the sudden change of the two dead bodies made him feel like he was in a nightmare. It was not until Joanna patted his back heavily that he finally came back to his senses and told Lucien the location of the baron's bedroom.
"Simon, you two are responsible for stopping the guards who are coming up from downstairs. Also, protect Mr. Wise and Mr. Mars." Although Lucien did not know how much power the baron had left, he knew that being surrounded by soldiers with longbows in the middle of a fierce battle would definitely affect him. If there were even some standard anti-magic longbows among them, it would be even more troublesome.
"Mr. Evans, I'll guard the stairs," Betty answered subconsciously, "Thank you, Mr. Evans. With my archery skills, as long as there is no Knight, I can stop them for a long time. "Betty was very proud of her archery skills, which were inherited from her elf bloodline.
Then, she saw Mr. Evans disappear into the doorway, leaving behind a faint shadow.
"Knight? Mr. Evans is a Knight! " Betty's eyes widened in shock. "A Saint Knight?!" Betty blurted out.
She turned around and saw that her mature and beautiful sister and her capable brother-in-law had their mouths half open in shock. Only Mars and Wise still looked like they were having a nightmare.
A Knight hired adventurers to protect him?! He could kill all the adventurers in Dragon's Tooth Town, as well as all the bandits and beasts in the wild! What a strange hobby nobles had!
"Betty, pick up your short bow and guard the staircase with me." Simon was the first one to come back to his senses. "Joanna, you take the two gentlemen and follow us."
Betty nodded hurriedly and found her short bow beside the two dead soldiers. Then she ran to the stairs.
…
Running as fast as he could in the dark corridor, Lucien realized that one second ahead of time might be the key to turning the situation around.
"Who's there? Stop! "The guards at the corner of the corridor saw a black shadow rushing towards them, and they hurriedly shouted at Lucien.
After they turned into zombies, their intelligence was significantly reduced.
Lucien did not answer. Instead, he rushed forward and chopped off the heads of the two guards with his sword. Then he kept running.
Lucien did not stop until he saw Baron Habearo's bedroom. He did not kill the guards directly.
After observing and sensing the power of the magic circle on the door, Lucien released the power of Sun's Corona from the amulet on his chest. The four low-rank undead creatures were purified and fell to the ground before they could even make a sound.
When Lucien heard the noise, he dashed out of the room and hit the door with Vigilant and Enfeeblement in his hands.
The black magic runes lit up one after another and then shattered one after another. Under the attack of the two extraordinary weapons, the magic runes collapsed instantly, and the door was directly pushed open.
Lucien, who had knocked open the door, used the rebounding force to roll back instead of moving forward.
At the same time, he cast two silver-black missiles out of thin air and flew into the bedroom.
Inside the bedroom, Baron Habearo was sitting in the middle of a strange triangular magic circle. His face was full of wrinkles.
On the three corners of the magic circle, there was a baby, a seven-year-old child, and a thirteen-year-old boy. They were tied up by black tentacles, and the milky white light on their bodies was gathered into a white pupil-less eyeball in the middle of the magic circle.
Driven by Katherine's spell, two lines of tears flowed out of the pupil-less eyeball, and the tears filled the silver cup in Baron Habearo's hand.
Under Habearo's shocked gaze, the two magic missiles hit the silver cup in his hand. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
