Lucien's room was on the third floor of the castle, and it was more than ten meters above the ground. Even a real Knight would get hurt if he jumped from such a high place. Also, in order not to become the target of the "Dry Shadow" and other senior-rank spells, using the "Feather Fall" spell was not the best choice.
Therefore, Lucien did nothing at first. He simply fell at the speed of free fall with the help of gravity. Then, after a brief calculation, he activated Flight and pulled himself upward with the help of the gravity of the stars, slowing down the speed of his fall.
Since he was not far from the ground, Lucien soon stepped on the soil of the courtyard.
The whole process was like jumping off a parachute. The only problem was the accuracy of the calculation. Otherwise, he would spend too much time in the air, which would be dangerous, or he would fall and hurt himself if he did not slow down enough, or his body would be damaged if he changed his speed too much in a short period of time.
For Lucien, who had a powerful soul, memory, and calculation ability, the problem was very simple.
The soil of the courtyard became solid because of the lack of soil. Lucien kicked his feet and quickly dodged the colorful light falling from the sky. He directly rushed to the gate of the castle.
Because Leo had a magic ring that could activate the Feather Fall spell, Lucien was not worried that Leo would be affected by the magic or the "Dry Shadow" spell. However, Leo was not as important to Nikonov and the Count as Lucien, so Lucien was not worried that they would deliberately divert the Dry Shadow's power to him.
However, as soon as Lucien ran a few steps, his spiritual power sensed that Leo was punched away by Ivanovszki. Leo fell on the soil of the garden in the distance like a broken doll, making a loud bang.
Since Nikonov was not killed by the surprise attack of the Count, the magic circle that he set up before he attacked Lucien was shaking, but it had not reached its limit. Therefore, the great Knight and other Knights in the castle still did not notice it. The battle between the Count and Nikonov was so fierce that they did not have time to deal with the magic circle. They did not try to strengthen the magic circle or destroy it to send messages to the outside world.
"Ivanovszki is a great Knight?!" Judging from Ivanovszki's punch, Lucien was quite surprised that he did not see it coming at all.
Although trained knights could hide their real power by controlling their steps, muscle contraction, heartbeat, and blood flow, they were all strong-willed knights. Therefore, they could easily reveal their terrifying aura. In the two conversations that Lucien had with Ivanovszki, Lucien felt that Ivanovszki was just like a real potential knight who had awakened his Blessing power with potions. Also, Ivanovszki was a vicious but weak leader who had been in charge of a smuggling organization for many years.
"If I had attacked Ivanovszki directly in Carleena's manor, I would have been killed …" Lucien felt lucky that he did not act rashly. Then, Lucien sensed that Leo was groaning in pain, and Ivanovszki jumped off the window and rushed towards him.
After being knocked out by Ivanovszki, Leo woke up from the shock when he landed on the ground. He felt that his head and body were about to fall apart, and he murmured to himself, "I'm seriously injured. Any senior-rank squire would be able to kill me …"
Although Ivanovszki used his fist, the strength of a level three or four Knight was terrifying. If Leo did not activate his Blessing, Ivanovszki's punch would have smashed his head like a watermelon. Even so, half of Leo's face was completely smashed. His cheekbones were broken, and blood was flowing out of his mouth. Golden stars were dancing in front of his eyes, and his internal organs and bones were severely damaged. He would not be able to fight for a while.
That was the difference between a great Knight and a Knight. Although Leo had bought a lot of potions over the years to improve his Blessing, he was still not as strong as a real Knight.
However, compared to his physical injuries, the pain in Leo's heart was even more intense. His enemy was a great Knight, and there was no way for him to avenge his family. His heart was filled with endless despair and sadness, as if the whole world was in darkness.
At this time, Lucien's voice came to his ears, "I'll lead Ivanovszki away, and you run away. Then we'll meet at the place we agreed on …"
Second-circle spell, Message.
Leo suddenly woke up from the dark and nightmarish despair. He knew that it was not the time to be sad, and he also had the motivation to live on, which was to repay Lucien for saving his life.
After sending the message to Leo, Lucien rushed to the gate of the castle, leaving a blurred shadow behind him.
Then, Lucien activated the bracelet of Fire Weaver. A fireball directly hit the gate, causing a loud explosion and setting off waves of fire.
Since the magic circle of the castle was not activated yet, Lucien managed to leave a small gap on the iron gate. Lucien was able to run to the west of Ural City.
Ivanovszki landed firmly on the ground, and he was not injured at all. Instead, he even made the ground tremble. Without any hesitation, he followed Lucien out of the castle.
Since Leo was not even a real Knight, Ivanovszki did not even bother to look at him. After all, it was Ivanovszki who killed Leo's family, not the other way around.
This kind of attitude made Leo feel very sad. If you were not strong enough, you would not even care about your enemy, because you would not have the ability to take revenge, and you would not have a future.
However, when Lucien's fireball blew up the gate of the castle, it also destroyed the magic circle that Nikonov set up temporarily. Therefore, the grand Knight, Knight and pastors who were guarding the castle heard the loud noises of the battle.
"I can't waste any more time." Leo took out a tube of Storm potion and drank it to stabilize his condition. Then he turned into a giant and started to run towards the gate of the castle.
On the way, Leo suddenly tripped on something. He looked down and saw that it was Matviv's legs that were corroded by the poisonous fog. The black boots on his legs were not very bright, but they were only slightly damaged.
"Master only has a magic robe, but he needs a pair of magic boots …" Leo thought to himself as he took out some clothes and took off the magic boots. Then he started to run out of the castle. If the grand Knight and grand Knight who were guarding the castle realized what was going on in the sky, he would not be able to escape!
In the room, Carleena was staring at the scene in confusion. She saw Ivanovszki chasing after Lucien and leaving the castle. She saw the knights and grand knights being alarmed, and she saw Leo picking up the magic boots and leaving as well. Suddenly, the look on her face changed and she cursed, "Damn Ivanovszki! Why didn't he warn me?"
Then she jumped out of the window. When she was halfway down, her body started to change rapidly. A pair of black wings grew out of her back, which looked like the evil black wings that only demons had. At the same time, two small horns appeared on her forehead, which made her look cute. On her fair skin, there were faint black scales.
Carleena was indeed a real Knight, and she had activated the Blood of Succubus!
As the black wings flapped, Carleena's long legs landed on the ground. However, as she was about to glide forward, a thin line of blood appeared on her forehead, and her body quickly withered. She fell to the ground like a mummy with her eyes wide open in fear.
Count Viktor hated Carleena the most. He loved Carleena from the bottom of his heart and even helped her inherit a Lot of Baron Nikov's inheritance. However, Carleena had colluded with outsiders to kill him when he was old and sick. If it were not for the fact that he was projected by someone when he was about to die, he would not have been able to take advantage of this opportunity.
Therefore, Viktor thought that Carleena was ten thousand times more despicable than Nikonov and Ivanovszki, who had killed Semyon. Therefore, he wanted to kill her even if he had to give up the advantage. By now, the Knight and grand Knight had realized what was going on. They started to inform the Church and other nobles.
…
After the buffering time, Lucien cast a Haste spell on himself to reduce the distance between him and Ivanovszki. After that, the two of them jumped over the city wall and ran towards the northwest.
As they were running, Lucien sensed that Ivanovszki slightly changed his direction.
"Is he going to outflank us with the help of the familiar terrain?" Lucien wondered.
When Lucien was about to kill Ivanovszki in the quiet night, he was surprised to find that Ivanovszki was nowhere to be seen. Ivanovszki was nowhere to be seen.
"He's not here to kill me?"
Lucien was a bit surprised. Then he realized that Ivanovszki knew that Lucien was a middle-rank sorcerer and had many powerful items and spells. It was not easy for him to defeat Lucien, so why would Ivanovszki chase him alone? Lucien was worried that Ivanovszki was confident that he could defeat Lucien, but now it seemed that Ivanovszki was just trying to run away.
If Count Witte won the battle in the castle, Ivanovszki would be doomed if he stayed there. Also, Ivanovszki was not powerful enough to help Nikonov. However, if Nikonov won the battle in the castle, Ivanovszki could explain that he left because he was chasing after the sorcerer who pretended to be Peter.
Lucien admired Ivanovszki from the bottom of his heart, as he knew that Ivanovszki's acting skills were not as good as Ivanovszki's.
Shaking his head, Lucien found the right direction and turned to the mine in the west of Ural.
…
In the endless mountains, Lucien chose to fly at a low altitude in the gloomy and gloomy places. He mainly flew around the few mines that had to be closed due to frequent collapses.
Lucien chose one of the most gloomy mines and snuck in. Using Sun's Corona, he tried to find the crack that led to the World of Souls.
According to Lucien's experience, the more gloomy and gloomy a place was, the more likely it was to have such a crack. Of course, this was not always true.
Lucien had planned to hide in such a place from the very beginning. In this way, he could hide in the World of Souls when the situation got too dangerous.
The cave was long and gloomy, empty and deadly silent. Lucien, who was walking here alone, felt a bit scared.
"There is indeed a crack here." When he was about to reach the bottom of the mine, Lucien noticed that there was a twisted crack that was invisible to the naked eye and spiritual power. Inside the crack, he sensed the familiar air of the World of Souls.
Lucien found a place to hide near the crack. After a few minutes of rest, he heard some light footsteps.
Then, a familiar figure snuck in carefully.
