The expelled crowd dispersed quickly, and the members of the Lord's Guard became more impatient. They quickly drove away the slow-moving people - Kate, who was standing on the window sill on the second floor, saw at least five or six people being held horizontally by these instigators.
Carry it out.
Andrew was not tall, which Kate remembered deeply. His robe was as wide as ever, and the low brim of the wizard's hat blocked her line of sight, preventing her from seeing his face clearly. Whether as a lord or as a lord,
As a mage, maintaining mystery is a necessary means of governance.
As expected by Duran, Andrew did not choose a horse-drawn carriage. In fact, the streets in the municipal area are very close to the market area, and many farmers have set up their stalls here, which greatly affects traffic. If you ride a horse-drawn carriage,
I'm afraid it will take a lot of trouble, so it would be faster to walk.
"It seems that that batch of materials is indeed crucial to him." Kate couldn't help but frowned. Out of the instinct of a spell caster, when she saw the pile of corpses and the materials scattered on the ground next to the corpses, she had an idea.
This is an ominous premonition. There have been rumors for a long time that the dragon mage Andrew has exhausted his spellcasting talent. Without a formal wizard training system, he has begun to pursue other avenues. It seems that this is not groundless. According to Dulan,
Many of those materials are related to black magic or evil spirits in the lower planes.
Although she didn’t know why Duran always seemed to understand a lot, Kate still believed his words without reservation.
Andrew actually took not many people with him on this trip. There were probably two small teams. One small team was responsible for opening the way, and the other small team was responsible for protecting him. Maybe he didn't expect that someone would dare to do it in broad daylight and in front of him.
To assassinate a lord of the Dragon Empire on his territory, right?
"This guy always does amazing things." Kate couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed and amused when she thought of how stunned she was when Duran proposed this plan. Now the defense force around Andrew has dropped to a low point. She had participated in the assassination at Bergen Manor.
You know, if you take action there, you will have to face at least five times the number of guards.
What's more, there is an additional knight with a blood-sworn oath. Although the failure of Mr. Qiu's plan is unexpected, it is also reasonable.
Thinking of this, Kate's heartbeat began to speed up for some reason. A sudden thought came to her mind: What if the assassination of Andrew this time was the same as the last time? Things did not develop according to Duran's plan, so it would eventually happen again.
What has it become?
As soon as this idea came up, it was like a wild horse running wildly in Kate's mind. Just like the previous time, before the knights of the Burning Blood Oath Legion took action, she even thought that Mr. Qiu's plan was about to succeed. Andrew
They were indeed in danger. However, at that moment, the light of the sword flashed across their eyes, and everything was over. And this time, will it be like the last time, will Andrew have a backup plan?
Kate was slightly flustered. She finally regained her composure. The small team surrounding the dragon mage had already passed her downstairs. Two of the young men even raised their heads and glanced at Kate who was leaning against the window.
At that time, her face was slightly modified by Dulan's disguise technique, and her facial lines became thicker and harder, which was very different from before, so she was not afraid of Andrew recognizing her.
Time was tight and Kate was not allowed to think too much. She silently replayed Duran's plan quickly in her mind, and then suddenly stretched her hands out of the window. In an instant, the warlock completed the spell-casting state.
A fiery red mark emerged from her palm, and in the blink of an eye, a fireball the size of a pumpkin surged out of her palm!
[Purgatory Fireball], an upgraded version of Purgatory Fire, Kate’s latest learned spell.
Demons are experts at playing with fire. Infernal fireballs are stronger than ordinary fireballs not only in size, but also in power. The moment the fireball appeared, the man in luxurious clothes seemed to notice it. There was a sudden wave of movement on his body, and a light purple enveloped him inside.
"Magic protection and repulsion barrier." Seeing Andrew's quick reaction, Kate knew that she might not be able to cause much harm to him. The effect of the magic repulsion barrier cast by a gold-level mage was still very significant, and she didn't even use it. Looking back, you can guess the result - the fireball hits the barrier and is immediately absorbed or assimilated by the anti-demon stance. Some unlucky guy around him may be slightly hurt, but compared with the original power of the purgatory fireball, this The damage is simply insignificant.
But all these were just imaginary actions on her part. She had already fled the room quickly and rushed down the stairs.
The moment she rushed down the stairs, the door of the hotel was slammed open. A leader-looking guy waved a long sword and a small shield in his hand, and angrily shouted: "Everyone, get down! Damn it!" , how dare you sneak attack the lord in Baisha Town, you guys, follow me."
Kate deliberately took half a step towards the hall, pretending to see a group of guards, then she exclaimed, covered her mouth and turned around to run away.
"There! That's the woman." said a soldier.
"Follow me!" The leader rushed through the corridor with a dozen people without thinking. At this moment, they saw with their own eyes that Kate easily jumped over the high wall in the backyard with the help of Simodo. The mercenary man He followed without hesitation.
Behind the high wall are complicated alleys. Duran has already planned an escape route for them. Behind the hotel is a lively market area. Kate and Simodo can lead a small part of the Lord's Guard in the market area. Spin back and forth.
"Chase!" the leader shouted angrily. The guy at the front quickly jumped over the high wall, and the others were also eager to try.
Who knows that at this moment, a timid voice came from the shadows behind the corridor: "Sir, adults, I am the waiter of the hotel. Are you chasing that woman? Her room is upstairs, you Do you want to go over and have a look?"
The leader immediately pointed to the shortest guy at the back of the team and said, "Go up and have a look."
The rest of the group, led by the leader, quickly chased Kate and Simodo, while the short man walked into the corridor. He glanced at the young man standing timidly aside, and suddenly felt that he looked familiar.
He raised his sword horizontally, and a look of fear immediately flashed across the young man's face. The short man asked rudely: "Who was that woman just now? Why did she stay in your hotel?"
The boy panicked and said: "Sir, we don't know anything about this! She has nothing to do with our hotel. If he knew that she was the person captured by the adults, the boss would not let her stay."
The short man thought it was the same, so he nodded and said: "Where is her room, you lead the way."
The young man timidly said: "I'm afraid..."
The short man snorted and stomped up the stairs without looking back. He said impatiently: "I'll go ahead."
"Okay, as you wish - you are indeed ahead." A cold voice came into his mind, and his heart suddenly contracted, but he found that he had lost the ability to speak.
The short figure suddenly fell down, and Duran quickly pulled out the oak thorn, skillfully dragged him to the storage room on the first floor, and then took off his clothes.
"It looks a bit ugly, but ugliness is easy to disguise!" Du Lan took out the tools he had prepared and started to work quickly.
Three minutes later, the effects of the disguise technique and the bone shrinking technique were revealed. When Dulan put on the other party's clothes, he was exactly the same as the original owner of the clothes.
"Hey, Lord, I have brought you good news!" Dulan tried to imitate the other party's tone and walked out of the storage room on his own.
