In the spacious stable, Anthony, who was holding the woman in his arms, was so shocked that even his handsome face was slightly distorted.
In his opinion, Renee is just a maid... Colin is so disrespectful!
I don’t know where the confidence comes from!
After a while, Anthony finally came back to his senses.
Looking at Colin's back who had walked out of the stable, a gloomy look flashed in his eyes.
However, he did not become anxious. Instead, he raised his hand and once again checked the detailed results fed back by the Troy reconnaissance bracelet type 2 worn on his left wrist.
After a while, more detailed detection results than before were transmitted to the retina.
[Target strength: Senior wizard apprentice.]
His strength has not changed, and what is detected is still at the same advanced wizard apprentice level as him.
There is only a small line of comments below.
[Note: There are fluctuations of Aldrich's camouflage crystal (old style) on the target's body. 】
'I see.'
Looking at the new line of information displayed in front of him, Anthony suddenly realized.
No wonder Colin is so confident!
I'm afraid the plan is to wait for him to attack, and then use Aldrich to disguise the crystal, pretending to be a wizard, so that he can retreat...
There was a slight disdainful smile on Anthony's lips.
'The wizards in small places just don't have the knowledge...'
He is not lying, he is indeed a genuine wizard from the School of Miracles.
Although he has left the City of Miracles for a long time, he still has a psychological sense of superiority to wizards in other places.
Looking at the entire world, most of the most cutting-edge and latest technologies and knowledge among wizards are spread from the City of Miracles.
And it’s always being updated and iterated.
The Aldrich Camouflage Crystal is no exception.
Although it is an extremely excellent disguised witchcraft tool, even ordinary first-level wizards could not see through it when it first appeared.
But witchcraft tools are always innovating and progressing.
He spent most of his savings to buy the second type of Troy detection bracelet in the City of Miracles, although it is not the latest model.
But it was still effortless to see through the old-fashioned Aldrich crystal on Colin's body that was unknown many years ago!
Anthony's eyes flickered.
He let go of his arm around the beautiful woman and smiled at her.
"Baby, you continue to choose the horse you like here. Once you have chosen it, you can go back alone...
I'm going to take care of some things."
After saying that, he chased Colin and others in the direction they left.
"Okay, Lord Anthony."
…
Inside a restaurant.
"This is the new information I learned about the Holy Flame Kingdom today...all my father told me this morning."
Connie said to Colin in front of her from the window of the box.
"I know." Colin put down his knife and fork, his face was a little solemn, he paused and asked;
"When exactly did the war start?"
"The news of the war came yesterday, saying that the war had just begun.
But including the time it took for the message to be delivered, I'm afraid the war has started for at least ten days..."
"Thank you, Your Highness Connie, this is very useful to me." Colin thanked him sincerely.
He looked calm on the face, but he was a little worried in his heart.
'I didn't expect that the Kingdom of Holy Flame would have a war with the Kingdom of Qian next door...'
He breathed out gently, looked at Connie and said in a deep voice.
"Your Highness Connie, I have something very important to go to the Holy Flame Kingdom, so I may have to take a step first."
Now that this situation has arisen in the Holy Flame Kingdom, it is obvious that we can no longer delay...the sooner we arrive, the better.
Otherwise, if the Kingdom of Holy Flame is defeated, it will not be so easy for him to complete the task of delivering the message for Erica.
Unfortunately, there was nothing he could do, and he couldn't get to the Holy Flame Kingdom right away.
If we go by the speed of the horses he picked today.
It will take about seven days to get from the Kingdom of Yili to the Kingdom of Holy Flame...
He couldn't help but sigh.
'It would be great if there were horses with the blood of Warcraft. It would save at least two or three days.'
But now... there is no time for him to find better horses.
While thinking about it, Colin stood up and prepared to hurry up and set off immediately.
"Your Highness Connie, I'm leaving first." He said to Connie again.
"So urgent..."
Connie on the other side only reacted at this moment, her expression a little surprised.
You should know that they had just sat down not long ago, and even only two dishes were served.
But looking at Colin's serious expression, she did not try to persuade him to stay. Instead, she smiled and said to Colin:
"I wish you have a nice trip."
"If you pass by the Kingdom of Yili in the future, please come to me again to share what you saw and heard during your journey."
The smile on Connie's face was gentle and sweet, which enhanced her ordinary facial features.
But if you look carefully, you can still catch a glimpse of the undetectable loneliness in her light blue eyes.
Don't look at it. What she does most on weekdays is take the train, travel around the Kingdom of Yili, hang out, and make wizard friends.
But in fact, from childhood to now, she has never really been far away from the Kingdom of Yili...
Not once.
Although this area of the Kingdom of Yili is poor in magic energy, there are also relatively few corresponding monsters and monsters.
But for ordinary people, without the blessing of a wizard, traveling in the wild still basically depends on luck.
Because of this, she can only move within a limited area around the kingdom.
If you go any further, you will have a narrow escape from death.
...Although the Kingdom of Yili is large, to her, it is just a small isolated island.
"I will." Colin responded.
When Connie heard this, the curve of her mouth widened slightly, and she said briskly:
"See you next time, Sir Colin."
"see you later……"
Bang.
At this moment, the door of the restaurant suddenly opened, and Hayden strode in.
He bowed to both Colin and apologized.
Then he looked at Connie with a solemn expression and said quickly:
"Your Highness Connie, to ensure your safety, please return to the palace with me immediately."
"Did something happen?" Connie looked at Hayden and asked doubtfully as she stood up without hesitation.
"Remember what His Majesty said this morning..."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! The sound of their conversation came from behind.
Colin walked in front and didn't listen much. He just took Renee out quickly.
The two horses they selected had already been sent outside the restaurant.
He had also prepared the fodder needed for the journey in advance and put it into the storage ring.
In doing so, the plan was to set off directly after dinner with Connie.
Now it just saves them some time.
One of the two horses is black and the other is brown and white.
Colin turned over and mounted the black horse.
Renee took her sister Demi to ride on another horse... Riding a horse was not difficult for her, who had a strength close to that of a great knight.
drive!
Tap tap tap tap——
Horse hooves were flying, and Colin and the three of them ran towards the nearest city gate.
At this time, there was a little bit of fine snow floating in the sky.
For some reason, there were more guards patrolling the streets. Ordinary passers-by could hardly see them. The few that appeared sporadically were mostly being questioned by the guards.
"Police officer, I just went to buy groceries..."
"Temporary martial law, go home and stay!"
Panic-looking passers-by being interrogated and guards wearing black uniforms with solemn and nervous expressions can be seen everywhere.
Colin gently exhaled a breath of hot breath, which instantly condensed into white mist in the cold air.
They were also interrogated by security guards.
Fortunately, Connie gave me the pass, which saved me a lot of trouble.
In this way, the journey was smooth, and after crossing two more streets, we could leave the city.
But this time.
Renee's brown and white horse behind her suddenly neighed, then fell heavily to the ground.
Swish.
At the critical moment, Renee jumped down with Demi in her arms and landed safely on the ground.
Before Colin could ask.
The black horse under him also neighed, raised its feet high, and then fell to the ground.
Colin rolled over and landed on the ground, frowning and looking at the two fallen horses.
…
Inside the palace.
A luxurious palace.
Wilder, wearing a crown, was waiting anxiously at the door, with Hayden beside him, expressionless.
The snow suddenly became heavy without knowing when.
Snowflakes fell in droves, falling on the white roof, on the carefully tended grass in front of the door, and on the two Wilders.
After a while, a light layer of white accumulated on their heads and shoulders.
Even Wilder's golden crown was not spared and was also stained with a touch of white.
After a while.
The palace door slowly opened.
A graceful female knight came out.
"Your Majesty Wilder, the adults have finished the experiment and you can go in now."
She led the two Wilders through the long corridor and came to a reception room.
The female knight knocked on the door twice, then stepped aside and waited.
For a long time, there was still no response from the house.
But the female knight did not continue to knock on the door, but continued to wait quietly.
This is a rule for adults.
"Ivan and Lord Anthony must have heard the knock on the door...perhaps they are still experimenting. Please wait a moment, Your Majesty." The female knight said softly to Wilder.
Wilder's face was expressionless and showed no emotion.
But Hayden on the side had a faint anger in his eyes.
With the great knight's physical fitness, he could vaguely hear the slight conversation coming from the room. The two wizards were clearly not doing experiments!
"...So I speculate that he is just a wizard from a small place, maybe a wandering wizard who has become a monk halfway.
But he has an old-fashioned Aldrich crystal on his body, and I am afraid he was lucky enough to have received the inheritance from a certain wizard... I think it is also very likely to be the inheritance from an official wizard."
"Are you interested?"
Ivan raised his eyebrows slightly: "Are you willing to give me a share?"
Anthony smiled slightly and said:
"You are more or less a high-level wizard apprentice. The two of you are more confident together."
"What's more, old friend——"
"It's not like you don't know that I have given up on the idea of advancing a long time ago and just want to enjoy my last life. In fact, if I hadn't fallen in love with the maid next to him, I wouldn't have spent this effort."
After saying this, Anthony smiled and added:
"Well, you can take most of the magic stones, but the two maids beside him have to be mine."
Ivan pondered for a moment and then asked:
"Show me the results of the Troy detection bracelet again."
Anthony readily took off the bracelet and handed it to Ivan.
He wasn't worried about anything. He and Ivan had known each other for decades, and the Troy detective bracelet also bore his imprint.
Ivan raised his hand and took the bracelet.
The Troy detective bracelet is overall brown, made of some unknown animal skin, and has an inconspicuous white crystal inlaid in the middle.
He stirs up the magic.
Buzz——
Detailed detection results appeared on his retina.
After reading it carefully.
He handed the bracelet back to Anthony and said with a smile:
"It's a deal."
"It's a deal." Anthony smiled.
After talking about this, they turned their heads and shouted outside:
"come in."
Wilder couldn't wait to push open the door and enter.
"Your Majesty Wilder."
"Your Excellency Ivan, Your Excellency Anthony." Wilder greeted calmly and then went straight to the topic.
"The security patrol this morning found that more than 500 civilians died last night in Chanukah East District, including men and women, old and young."
When Ivan and Anthony heard this, the relief on their faces slightly faded.
Wilder continued.
"At the same time, except for an old woman who accidentally froze to death in the three districts of north, south and west last night, no one else died."
"And the deceased in the East District this time are also different from the previous deceased."
"The deceased in the past all died due to puncture in the heart. However, the causes of death of the deceased this time are different, and the marks on their bodies are also obviously different from before... But most of them are physically disabled, and almost all of the deceased's eyes are missing.
.”
"Is there any other information?" Ivan asked, his expression serious.
When Wilder asked Hayden to come to tell them about this yesterday, they didn't take it to heart.
From Hayden's description, they speculated that it was most likely an ordinary demonic pollution incident.
After all, the Kingdom of Yili is devoid of magic power, and there won't be any powerful monsters...and there won't be that many weird things.
But I didn't expect that things would deteriorate to this extent after just one night.
"There is also information...the victims are basically concentrated in the foggy blue neighborhood."
"In addition, there is more information..." Wilder paused and said: "You may need to go to the scene to have a look."
Ivan nodded and walked aside with Anthony to talk softly.
"I think this matter cannot be delayed any longer, Anthony." Ivan said softly to Anthony.
"I know." Anthony nodded in agreement, and then said, "Without further delay, let's go now."
"But that wandering wizard from a small place..." Ivan asked hesitantly.
Some of the pigeons he couldn't get his hands on just flew away.
"Don't worry, they won't be able to go too far for a while." Anthony smiled confidently, and then said mysteriously:
"Maybe he will come back to the palace on his own initiative."
After saying this, he changed his tone and said in a deep voice:
"So many people died suddenly overnight, and the reasons behind it cannot be underestimated."
"I understand." Ivan nodded, "I will carry the important things with me later. If I go to the scene to see...
You know, it’s still the same old rules.”
"Yeah." Anthony nodded.
It would be okay if the crisis can be handled, but if it cannot be handled...then we can only pray for the Kingdom of Iri.
After all, they are here to make offerings, not to sell their lives.
Then, a group of people took a horse-drawn carriage and rushed towards the eastern district of Chanuka City.
