"Do you really want to let those two people go, Your Excellency?"

Purple smoke continued to fill the sky above this street, and finally turned into long whip-shaped dragons. They quickly extended in all directions along the intricate ancient streets and lanes, instantly covering everything in those streets and the surrounding areas.

All the crowds were swept in. Violet slowly retracted her hands. Violet, whose lavender curly hair was fluttering in the wind, also withdrew the serious gaze she had always shown. She looked at the people who waved her hands expressionlessly.

The purple energy emitted continued to ravage the scene around the streets and alleys. After a while, he turned around and responded to the question from Sherman, who had just climbed up: "Are you awake?"

"It was my mistake." Understanding the meaning of the other party's words, the middle-aged magician, who had no time to adjust his robe and hair, lowered his head deeply: "Please forgive me... No, please punish me.

"

"It doesn't matter, this result is within my expectation anyway."

Violet, who was still floating in the air as her fingers kept moving around her cheek, replied calmly: "Ever since I saw the potion prepared by that guy, I knew that he was not something that could be dealt with casually.

Opponent, if you don't fight him with all your strength at the beginning, you will inevitably suffer a loss in the end."

"After all, the other party is dealing with us with the consciousness of death." Her long eyelashes flickered back and forth twice, and her voice became much deeper: "And they actually saw our intention so quickly.

…”

"I...didn't expect that the alchemist could actually refine pure elements." Looking at the last direction in which the two adventurers escaped, Sherman's breathing voice became deeper: "Just now

At that moment, I even thought I had reached the land of fire in the north..."

"As you might guess, he cannot really bring these flame elements under his control." Violet chuckled and shook her head: "However, as long as he can summon the flame elements,

, is enough to give most people a headache.”

"After all, this is not the elemental body left in our world, but the real fire element itself."

His eyes gradually became serious. Sherman stood up with his shoulders in his hands and gritted his teeth: "We must catch him."

"I can't leave this place now."

Pointing behind him in the distance, the Lord of Violet once again lit up his own purple light, and circular magic arrays wrapped with magic runes began to follow the airspace wrapped by him.

He began to slowly compress into that space: "I don't want the place where I live to turn into a sea of ​​fire. This space must be repaired. Although I don't mind making up for the trouble that little guy caused, but about that

Women’s things…”

"We also have our own agreement." Her voice paused, and then she looked at the middle-aged magician's leaving figure: "You should understand, right, Mr. Sherman Magician?"

"I understand." The middle-aged magician replied without looking back, and then quickly disappeared into the distance with the sound of wind: "This time..."

"I won't be careless anymore."

****************************

"Continue to attack! Don't be careless! There are enemies lurking nearby, find them all for me!"

Near the city gate in the northeast of Tanzania City, among the shadows left by countless figures intersecting with each other, Gomez's loud shouts were also raised in the chaotic scene along with his sword slash.

Over the battlefield, accompanied by his eyes looking at the fiery red sky in the city again: "Damn it, at this time..."

"Captain, do we—"

"No need, His Royal Highness is right here."

His eyes lingered on the temporary high platform not far away from him for a moment. The captain of the Royal Guard named Gomez gave his order with a serious face: "Continue to guard! No suspicious persons are allowed to pass! Raman

,How is His Royal Highness’s injury?”

"I'm fine."

A low, breathy response sounded behind him, accompanied by a figure belonging to His Royal Highness Prince Chris, who was being helped off the stage by another person who looked like the captain of the Royal Guards: "You guys... continue.

Just keep fighting."

"Your Highness the Prince."

After quickly issuing a few more orders, Gomez then retreated to the rear of the battle line at the city gate: "My subordinate failed in his duty and you were injured."

"It doesn't matter. This is an expected situation."

He reached out and pushed away the hand of the captain of the Royal Guard who was supporting him. His Royal Highness Prince Chris stood up straight and revealed an arrow still stuck in his arm: "I just didn't expect that those despicable people would

The adventurer actually dared to attack me..."

"Their strength shouldn't be that strong."

He reached out and took out two bottles of magic healing potion from his waist. The tall and burly Gomez gradually approached His Royal Highness and said without any waves in his voice: "There must be other problems here, or other things are mixed in."

The forces of evil.”

"You mean...there are restorationists sneaking into my side?"

Looking up at the high platform he was standing on just now, His Royal Highness's eyes glowed like fire: "That archer..."

"I remember his name is Li Kuo Ma, right?"

Quietly looking at Gomez, who was treating His Highness the Prince's wounds, another captain of the Imperial Guard named Raman read out the name in a low voice: "If our intelligence statistics are not wrong, that guy should

It belongs to an adventure group called the Beast Alliance..."

"They should be from the same family as the two guys who were arrested at the top of the city wall." He took out a piece of military bandage, and Gomez began to help bandage the prince's arm: "I heard that the two guys who were arrested were

, or the leader of that adventure group."

"I know those two people."

I don’t know whether it’s because he is enduring the pain in his body or because he is enduring the anger in his heart. His Royal Highness’s limbs are trembling: “Their names have appeared on my table before, and that person even promised me

Yes! But——"

"The number of enemies seemed endless - it was beyond acting."

Looking quietly at His Royal Highness the Prince's sudden stop, Raman then began to look around at the Imperial soldiers who still showed no signs of stopping fighting: "Where's the captain?"

"I've sent someone to send the message, and you'll hear back soon."

"Where are the brothers who were sent to the banks of the Gemenan River?"

"I don't know. Unless something unexpected happens, I should be back soon."

"Hopefully there won't be any other problems over there."

Reaching out and slashing out a brilliant golden sword, the captain of the Imperial Royal Guard, who had been turning his back to the battle line, finally turned around with a cold face: "Otherwise, I may need to vent more anger.

"

"You'd better restrain your emotions. The city guards haven't appeared yet." Gomez also raised his sword, but Gomez shook his head slightly: "Most of the nobles in Santerius are now here."

If something unexpected happens here..."

"All the nobles in Santerius combined are not as important as the safety of His Highness the Prince." Raman raised his sword again with a cold voice: "If it weren't for His Highness the Prince arranging this performance on his own, I would definitely kill this person.

A bunch of winebags and ricebags!”

"Just by reaching this point, the final result can only provoke the empire's anger." Gomez's voice became calmer: "I'm afraid they have other tricks...

look."

"There seems to be more riots in the city."

He glanced towards the west where the battle formation was located, and his sight also passed over the city battlefield where players and NPC figures were mixed, and fell to the sky above Tanzania City. The blazing flames surrounding the air were also accompanied by this.

As more and more purple smoke entangled, the clear sky that should have belonged to this city turned into gloomy darkness. Also looking at the source of this darkness, Duan Qing silently let go of himself and hugged Maggie with all his strength.

His hands and body that seemed to have exhausted all his strength then followed the corner of the last alley and stopped in the shadows of countless houses: "It seems that the Lord of Violet intends to repair the wounds of this city first.

ah."

"We should have time to take a little rest."

He placed Maggie's body to one side, and then let out a heavy gasp again. A bottle of yellow-light potion followed the path drawn by his trembling hands and was poured down his throat instantly.

He continued: "Are you right, fellow Taoist?"

"how could I know."

Holding his sleeves angrily, the figure belonging to Hongshan Old Taoist then slowly appeared behind the alley where Duan Qing had just walked: "Old Taoist, I have completely fallen into your trap now, and I haven't found it yet.

It’s time to reason.”

"What, you're not satisfied?"

Wiping the corners of his mouth, Duan Qing smiled and turned his head to look in the direction of the old Taoist: "This is a rare opportunity that you won't encounter even after practicing Taoism for a thousand years, do you just let it go?

"

"I know this is a once-in-a-lifetime hidden mission, but now I have..."

After shaking his arms, Master Hongshan's mood dropped as his voice suddenly stopped: "Forget it, Master, I have already fallen in love with you in the tavern. Now that I have come to this point,

Then let’s walk all the way to the dark side... um."

"By the way... do you know the identity of this woman?" He pointed at the face of the woman lying on the ground, and his suppressed expression also showed a hint of probing: "She is really... that important.

?"

"Although it's just a test, you should have heard what I just said."

Looking up at the flaming cloud sky entwined with purple smoke, Duan Qing lowered his brows: "I can't explain the specific situation, but this woman's identity should be very special. I don't know why she appears here now.

, but since they had such a strong reaction to my attempt to take them out of the city..."

"What the Violet Tower is doing is now apparent." A gloomy smile appeared on his face, as if he had retrieved something from ancient memories: "They are not taking care of Maggie, but her.

's caretaker."

"And the entire city of Tanzania is actually her prison."

He let out a long sigh, and at the same time pressed a bottle of healing potion into the hand of the woman with confused eyes: "Being able to use a magic mechanism of the Violet Tower level and an entire city as a prison head,

Who do you think she will be?"

"Uh...ah hahaha."

A trace of cold sweat gradually broke out on his face, and Master Hongshan's expression began to become cloudy and uncertain: "No, that's right, now that I think about it, what you said is very likely to be the truth..."

"The only thing unclear now is what exactly they wanted to do with her."

As if he didn't notice the expression of the veteran behind him, Duan Qing, who was still looking at Maggie, said in a heavy voice: "Judging from her reaction just now, this prisoner is probably having a bad life here..."

"Are they going to do something to her?"

Recalling what the two said to each other when they first met Maggie, Master Hong Shan frowned slightly: "Strange..."

"What's wrong?"

"Ah no, it's nothing."

Quickly waving his hands, the experienced player cleared his throat vigorously: "I mean, do we really want to rob the prison?"

"The difficulty of hidden tasks is always very high." Duan Qing raised his head with a smile: "And I don't trust the Lord of Violet."

"Oh why?"

"Coupled with what you just told me today, we have a lot of clues at hand."

Helping Maggie beside him to stand up again, Duan Qing's voice then echoed in a low voice around the alley: "For example, when the Crook outpost was attacked, there were people from the adventure group who appeared at the scene. They

The method of breaching that outpost was to poison the wine, and it was mixed with a long-popular cocktail as a catalytic method..."

"We already have a general direction as to the identity of the adventurers who attacked the outpost." Having said this, he turned his head and glanced at the face of Master Hong Shan: "They are probably the people you mentioned before."

"Those people I mentioned?" Old Taoist Hongshan's expression became obviously weirder: "When did I mention that -"

"They have the same goal, which is to attack His Royal Highness."

Interrupting the other party's words, Duan Qing carried Maggie's body again: "But... if this matter itself is mixed with other factors, and then turns into a fake show, what will happen to the situation?

Woolen cloth?"

He took two hard breaths, and then started a new round of running again. The voice belonging to the Hongshan Taoist then sounded behind him, accompanied by the sound of breaking the air belonging to him holding the Taoist robe.

The questioning voice in the ear: "You, you actually knew this a long time ago? How did you-"

Cha.

The sound of the sword blade piercing through the body then sounded in Duan Qing's ears, interrupting again what Hongshan Taoist was about to say. Still not stopping, he then turned around and waved the sleeves of the man's robe.

, but the figure of the Taoist priest who slowly fell because his body was pierced was thrown into the distance of his sight. (To be continued)
