Hearing Ella's shout, Alfred turned around and asked in a low voice: "Your subordinates?"
Ella nodded: "He is my swordsmanship teacher."
"Swordsmanship teacher? Why are you here?"
After Alfred left the door, he asked his men to light the candles again. Even so, he still stared at the door cautiously. The door was opened, and an Aztlan soldier walked in. Alfred made a prompt decision,
He and a knight rushed forward from left to right.
The Aztlan soldier was startled, jumped back, hid his mouth in his collar, took it out, and spit out a stream of fire, forcing Alfred and the two back.
Then, he shouted dissatisfied: "I only said not to ambush, but does that mean I agree with your frontal attack?"
The voice sounded like Daxter, but Ella's outfit looked like an Aztlan soldier. Seeing Ella's confused eyes, the Aztlan soldier reacted and took out a piece of cloth and put it on his face.
After wiping it on for a few times, when he took off the cloth, he could faintly recognize that it was indeed Dust.
This trick shocked Alfred, and he couldn't help but ask: "Are you a subordinate of the King of Sweden? How did you sneak into Winchester?"
Dast rolled his eyes: "Winchester is not a fortress. Just put some blood on the corpse mountain outside the wall and lie there. The people on the wall won't be able to see it. Wait until they open the door and throw it out."
When you find the corpse, why don't you just find an opportunity to roll in? I came in the night before yesterday."
The night before yesterday was the first day Ella was arrested. Hearing that Dust had sneaked in so early, Ella was also surprised: "Then why did Master show up now?"
"You've sneaked in, but it's easy to reveal your secret! I've never been in trouble in Aztlan. I'm not used to the way they talk and behave. Why don't I spend more time to learn it? No, it's almost the same.
Come over here. King of Sweden, don't be angry. I was watching from the duel field when you were dueling. I thought that if there was any accident, I would have to take you out even if I was forced to do so. But King of Sweden, you have to do it.
It's not bad, and it doesn't disgrace my name as a 'white knight'."
Dust gave Ella a thumbs up.
"It's just that you can be more ruthless and stab him to death. If you want me, I'll paralyze him and then watch his companions sacrifice him. That would be so satisfying."
Dast said it easily, but Alfred and others were even more surprised when they heard: not only did he sneak into Winchester under the eyes of the Aztlan people, but he even went to the duel field to watch, so what?
Is it something that ordinary people can do? It wasn't until he heard Dast announce the name "White Knight" that Alfred thought thoughtfully: "White Knight, I seem to have heard this name somewhere before."
When Dast heard this, he raised his head proudly: "Oh? My name has already reached the ears of the King of Knights?"
"King of Knights, I remembered." A knight whispered from the side, "It's that rogue who often goes to the hotel and orders water for free, and then sleeps on the table all day long. A few years ago, the owner of the hotel
I couldn’t bear it anymore and came here to complain.”
When Dast heard this, he immediately responded confidently: "Complain? Water is free in the first place. You can't force me to order a drink and then have me be arrested if I can't pay for it, right? It's better to sleep in a tavern than in a bridge.
, there is no wind around, and you can still watch the dancers dancing at night..."
"Master!" Ella was also very dissatisfied, "You have the ability to sneak in and out, why don't you teach me?"
"No, then you have to save a few skills as a master, right? This is the foundation of my family and my life. To teach is to put my life in the hands of others, so if I don't spread it easily, even the King of Sweden can't do it..."
"How much more will it cost?"
"At least one more Nomisma every month."
"make a deal!"
The master and apprentice shook hands in greeting.
Alfred was deeply shocked by the conversation between master and disciple.
"Speaking of which, King of Sweden, you used to do things that I couldn't understand..."
"What?" Ella didn't hear clearly.
"Nothing." Alfred coughed, "Then what should we do now? Have the soldiers of the King of Sweden really begun to attack the city?"
"Ah, I almost forgot about the business." Dast became serious, "King of Sweden, your maid asked me to come and see if I can rescue you. I have been observing outside for two days, and now only the ones who can enter and exit the city are
Aztlan's soldiers. There are no women among them, and they are all very tall. Even if I disguise you, you will be discovered soon. So it is not feasible."
"What does master mean?"
"I will go out of town tonight to report the news. If you exceed this time, they will think that you and I have been in an accident. Before I came here, the maid told me that if you are still safe, I can't take you out of the city.
, then it is best to find an opportunity to contact you and ask for advice on the next military strategy." Dast said, "In order to rescue you, the King of Sweden, siege is necessary. Your maid and Glahid are both attackers.
Do you think this is appropriate?"
"A strong attack? I'm afraid it won't work." Ella said, "As far as I know, there are three elf-level magicians here. In addition to the three hundred magic warriors, with the three thousand people I brought,
The odds are slim."
"So what do we do?"
"The first is their magic. I don't think Amy will misjudge the enemy's magic level, so the enemy suddenly reaches the elf level after eating the heart." Ella looked at Alfred, "They attacked you.
At that time, I also ate the heart, right?"
"That's right." Alfred said, "But according to my observation, there are only three people who can reach the elf level after eating the heart. I'm afraid this is not a condition for increasing magic power, but a condition for replenishing magic power."
"The group of Aztlans told me before that in order to have strong strength, they need a lot of hearts. But you said that eating it directly can only replenish magic power and cannot improve strength, so that's wrong. It's not eating it directly.
That means...sacrifice to the gods?"
Ella suddenly understood.
"I know why so many of them have magic. The way they increase their magic is probably to sacrifice their hearts to the gods. The more sacrifices they make, the more powerful they are! Compared with our magic system, it is more expensive to increase the level of magic in this way.
Much easier!”
"Then what should we do?" Dast said, "If eating the heart can replenish magic, and sacrificing the heart can improve magic, then the entire Winchester city is a resource for the Aztlan people. We can't deal with it.
An enemy with endless magical power?"
"This is just a guess on my part. But in short, master, can you find a way to enter the city again after you leave the city?" Ella pointed to the bag of powder on the ground, "Sneak into the duel venue and get as much of this as possible.
Burn incense and place it on every torch stand on the city wall."
