Linton's words persuaded Garsain. If he followed Linton's arrangement and directly pointed out the agent as him, then the other side would definitely send someone to check Linton's strength. Of course, all they would find is what Linton is like.

trash information. Since all the information found is such information, the people sent by the enemy will definitely not be very strong. They will probably consider letting people from their own family come out to improve their reputation. After all, the judges of the trial by combat are

But very good qualifications will be of great help to the Cavaliers' career.

However, although Garsain is not very clear about Linton's true strength, there are examples of defeating star mages and knights. In this way, he might actually be able to win the competition.

And if, as Linton said, he directly asked for a trial by combat, he might not have to be tortured. After all, in everyone's mind, a trial by combat is just seeking death. Is this really necessary to torture a dead man to extract a confession?

I thought so, but Garsain still said: "You can't use spiritual magic, otherwise the matter may be more serious."

"Okay, okay, didn't I just say that I have just learned a new secret, Wei Mingliu's swordsmanship, and I will be invincible just by using this." Linton said.

"I just wanted to ask you, a magician, why do you learn swordsmanship?" Gaseon asked.

"Do you know what Ashina-ryu swordsmanship is? The essence of Ashina-ryu swordsmanship is that you don't stick to the sword and attack with all the weapons you can use. Magic is also one of the attack methods, so this is the most suitable for magic.

Master's swordsmanship." Linton said.

"It seems to make sense, but why do I always feel so strange?" Gassern said.

"Huh? Can you develop resistance to cheating if you cheat too much?" Linton said in a low voice.

"What did you say?"

"It's nothing. Anyway, you are my nephew. How could I cheat you, uncle?" Linton patted Garsain on the shoulder and said.

"You're the one who tricked me here now, okay?" Garsain yelled.

"I told you that it's your own bad luck..." Seeing what Garsain wanted to say, Linton said directly, "Anyway, uncle, I will save you. You follow my arrangement, I'll leave first."

After saying that, Linton turned into a puddle of mud, then went into the ground and disappeared. Garsain was stunned for a long time when he saw Linton leaving like this. Although Linton's words sounded unreliable, his so-called

Magic was really beyond the scope of his cognition. After thinking about it, he decided to do as he said. Garsain had a vague feeling that this uncle was really powerful.

Linton used Earth Release and Earth Sneak, a very basic C-level ninjutsu. Using this ninjutsu, Linton got out of the prison easily. Soon, he came to Shengde

On the streets of Lavan City.

This was the first time that Linton saw the whole city of Sandrawan. What appeared in front of Linton was a very neat and clean street. Looking along the street, Linton couldn't even see the end. This was a very big city.

City, compared with this city, the city of Digarno where he stayed before was almost like a village.

Looking around, Linton saw a very majestic castle-like building not far away. There was obviously a city wall around the building. If he guessed correctly, this should be the inner city wall, which means that the palace should be over there.

On the opposite side of the palace, Linton also saw a very conspicuous building group. These buildings all had blue roofs, so they were obviously integrated. Linton didn't know what kind of building group it was.

In short, Linton was a little surprised by the prosperity of the imperial capital. Unfortunately, he couldn't appreciate it properly now. Garsain still had to get it done as soon as possible. He couldn't really ignore his nephew.

Now, the first thing to do is to do two things. One is to make peace with the family, and the other is to meet with the third princess. The main purpose is to prevent them from telling the story about the fire-eating beast, otherwise the evidence will be conclusive.

Under such circumstances, there is no way to conduct trial by combat. However, both of these things are quite troublesome now.

Let’s not talk about the third princess. She is in the palace, and it will definitely be difficult for Linton to sneak in. As for Linton at home, he doesn’t know where they are now.

He also asked Garsain before, and it seemed that the others had not been arrested, of course before he went in. It was really unclear what happened after he was arrested, and of course he didn't know where they went.

Linton also had a headache. He had marked the Flying Thunder God on Garsain's body before. He thought that these people should be acting together. He could just make a mark by himself. He couldn't have imagined that this would happen.

.So where are you going to find someone now?

The Meloway family does not have their own real estate in the imperial capital, so theoretically they can only stay in hotels. If they want to find people, it would be more convenient to go to a hotel, but Linton doesn't know how many there are in such a big city just by thinking about it.

If you were looking for hotels one by one, you would have to find out when to go there, not to mention that he didn’t know exactly where these hotels were.

After thinking about it, Linton walked directly to the door of the nearby prison and asked the soldier guarding the door: "Have anyone from the Meloway family been here?"

"Are you from the Meloway family again? I told you that the Governor is not here today and no one is allowed to visit. You can come and see us tomorrow," the soldier said immediately.

From what the guard said, Linton understood that his family should have been here before, but they were driven away. After all, Gaseon also said that no one had visited him yet.

"Then do you know where the Merloway people have gone?" Linton asked.

"How do I know..." The guard was obviously a little annoyed, but after thinking about it, he added, "By the way, I remember a few of them had a discussion at the door, and they seemed to have mentioned Duke Leyden..."

"Duke Leyden?" Linton paused for a moment. He had heard of this name before. Didn't he hear Baron Seders say before that the backers of both the Merrow family and the Seders family were Duke Leyden?

, Linton's father and Baron Thredes were once knights under the old Duke Leyden. Although the old Duke Leyden is dead now, the relationship between the two parties is still maintained.

It is estimated that the family members were anxious because they could not see anyone, so they had no choice but to find a backer. Linton thought for a while and then asked: "Where is the residence of Duke Leyden?"

The guard was polite and pointed the way to Linton. However, he also told Linton that Duke Leyden's palace was in the noble area, and the entry of ordinary civilians would also be restricted. Linton didn't say anything and walked directly towards

I searched all the way in the direction pointed by the guard.

Soon, Linton found the place, because it was obvious that the building in front and the architectural style behind him were completely different, as if there was an obvious dividing line separating the two worlds. Linton also knew that here, the nobles

The common people and the common people are people from two different worlds, which are reflected in all aspects of clothing, food, housing and transportation, and the style of this building is one of them.

Looking ahead, Linton saw that there were indeed people guarding him. It was not forbidden to enter, but the guards would come up to ask everyone who entered. Seeing this, Linton thought about it and sneaked in directly. Although he was also a noble,

But there are no supporting documents or anything like that, so if it is not clear, it will cause trouble.

So he used earth escape again, and Linton bypassed the checkpoint directly from the underground and entered the noble area. He was about to go forward to find Duke Leyden's mansion, but after taking two steps, suddenly someone came from beside him.

Human voice: "Wait, boy, what magic did you just use?"

Linton turned around and looked around, and found that the person who stopped him was an old man with gray hair and a long beard. He must be in his seventies or eighties. Judging from his age, he should be wearing the clothes of an aristocrat.

, and he should be quite high-end, but after all, this is the aristocratic area of ​​the imperial capital, so it is not strange to meet such a person.

However, Linton was surprised that he didn't see this person just now. Although he was not used to sneaking underground, he did a little observation before coming out. There was no one around at that time, and he didn't know where the old man was.

Where did he see himself, and how did he suddenly appear next to him?

"Earth magic." Linton replied simply.

"Earth magic?" The other party was stunned for a moment, "Why haven't I heard of such earth magic?"

"Do you know magic? Are you a magician?" Linton asked as usual.

"Of course I am." The old man was not happy anymore and said a little angry.

"Ahem...Although you are a magician, it seems at first glance that your understanding of magic is not deep enough." Linton said.

"Huh?" The old man looked at Linton in surprise, "What do you mean, you mean I don't understand magic?"

"Of course, otherwise why don't you know what kind of magic I use?" Linton said.

"This..." The old man was really stopped by the question.

"It's okay, step back! I'm in a hurry to do something." After Linton said that, he wanted to leave.

"Wait!" the old man shouted again, "You... don't know me?"

"Are you a famous person?" Linton asked.

"It seems that you are not from the Imperial City." The old man looked at Linton and said, "You said you have something urgent to do, but you are not from the Imperial City. You probably have a headache. Are you here to ask for help? Yes.

Otherwise, you teach me the magic you just used, and I'll find someone to help you."

"Oh? You seem to be very confident in your ability to do things." Linton said.

"There shouldn't be anything I can't do in this imperial capital." The old man stood up and said with an air of dignity.

"Then do you know that a monster rushed into the city and destroyed everything yesterday?" Linton asked.

"Huh? Huh? That thing?" The old man was stunned for a moment, "Excuse me, take my leave."
