Chapter Ninety-Nine: Breaking the Enemy
Old Duke was a little silent, and only then did he really realize the seriousness of the matter.
If everything that happened before had nothing to do with the Dark Wizard, then what was the truth of the matter, and what was the true purpose of the Night Elf Jasmine and the organization behind her?
In fact, when he heard the dark wizard's answer, not only Old Duke was surprised, but even Yang Chen and Xiri, who were hiding in the Necromantic Vision, could see the consternation in each other's eyes after looking at each other!
If the Dark Wizard never knew the Night Elf Jasmine, then why did he attack Old John and the Solon Family Food Collectors?
And that night Heroda was assassinated! all this was too coincidental......
Moreover, there is another suspicious point is the locusts in Xipo Village!
Everyone was silent for a while, and they only felt as if they had been tricked by someone, such as Ciri and the others, even the dark wizard......
"Ahem...... Hahaha......" Old Duke suddenly laughed, "I see, what a trick to kill with a knife!"
"You...... What do you mean?" the dark wizard's eerie gaze under his black cloak grew colder, not at Old Duke, but at the night elf named Jasmine.
"You should understand...... "the reason why we are here is that we have been deliberately misled......
"Which one is named Jasmine?" the dark wizard's face, which was still a little annoyed, had become calm again......
"Yes......" said Old Duke in a louder voice, "it's her...... And the organization behind her...... I should have known...... What could be more chaotic in Nonan than killing the heir of the Cecil family......"
Old Duke muttered.
"What?!" the dark wizard's face finally changed drastically, and he flashed in the air, grabbed Duke Sr. with both hands and asked, "Who is the heir of the Cecil family?"
The dark wizard couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, as a sky powerhouse, he naturally knew the terrifying ...... of the Cecil family
Not to mention anything else, just the current patriarch of the family, Cecil Brooke, is a powerhouse in the Ori realm, and if he knows that he is attacking his heirs, then it will be difficult for him to survive in Noonan!
Old Duke's face was full of mockery, "What?
The dark wizard's face turned red, as if he had been poked in the sore spot.
Although he was afraid of the Cecil family's revenge, if he had known that there were Cecil family members in this group in advance, then he would not have spared his hand before the battle began......!
The dark wizard's face was very complicated, for now, he had already offended the Cecil family to death, no matter what, he could not escape the fate of being hunted down.
According to common sense, he should now directly kill everyone present, and then run away!
But the problem is that he hates the mastermind behind the murder with a knife more than the people of the Cecil family!
If it weren't for the Night Elf Jasmine to get in the way, he wouldn't have offended the Cecil family rashly.
The Dark Wizard wanted to kill Duke Sr. and a group of Secret Guards, but he had to get information about Jasmine and the others from them......
He had been careful to live in seclusion in the forest, but the man named Jasmine and the organization behind her had been able to learn about him and had come up with such a perfect plan......
Compared to the Cecil family, which is powerful on the bright side, the organization hidden in the shadows is even more fearful......
"Hmph......" The dark wizard snorted coldly and said to old Duke, "Anyway, it is a foregone conclusion that I will fight the Cecil family, and I don't care if Brooke's heir is dead or alive...... But you should tell me about Jasmine...... Maybe I'll be able to avenge you!"
"Haha......" Old Duke was stunned for a moment, and said, "Your words are very reasonable, but unfortunately, we don't know anything about Jasmine...... It is only known that she is a half-step sky powerhouse, born in the Night Elf race, and has been active in the Cree City Joy Tavern before...... Other than that, I don't know anymore......"
When death came, old Duke was a little careless.
It's a pity that he really knows very little about the organization behind Jasmine, otherwise he would definitely tell the dark wizard everything, if nothing else, just to expose some clues about Jasmine and the organization behind her.
In the Necromantic Vision, Yang Chen and Ciri could only watch Old Duke die generously, although they were unwilling in their hearts, they were powerless.
Not to mention anything else, the dark wizard is high, and it is difficult for the two of them to get close to each other with the advantage of stealth.
"In that case, then please die! As for the Night Elves, I will settle accounts with him in the future!"
The dark wizard quietly listened to Old Duke's information, and with a slight lift of his hand, the black giant claws that had been slightly loosened before closed again!
Gradually, as the bruises on Old Duke's face were exposed, he slowly strangled him to death!
Sensing that Old Duke's aura had disappeared, the dark wizard didn't stop anymore, and threw Old Duke's body down, and the black giant claws absorbed the black mist in the air and grew larger, smashing towards the dark guards on the ground......
When Old Duke died, Yang Chen and Ciri were a little silent, Yang Chen's mood was slightly low, and Ciri tightened the sword in his hand.
"The Light is coming!"
When the black giant claw was about to slap on the ground, a childish voice sounded, and a pillar of light tens of meters high shrouded the top of the dark wizard's head!
"What?!" The dark wizard never expected to be attacked by someone, and the figure that was still standing in the air was accidentally shot down to the ground by a pillar of light!
The incident happened suddenly, and the dark wizard could only urgently mobilize the power of the rules to protect himself, so that he could not even do the most basic vacancy......
This spell appeared too suddenly, not only did the dark wizard not expect it, but even Xili and Yang Chen, who had been secretly observing the battle situation, were a little confused.
"Look......" Yang Chen patted Ciri lightly and said with a little joy.
"What?" Ciri looked in the direction Yang Chen pointed, and saw that there was a teenager standing in the place where the old Duke's "corpse" had been abandoned, and the magic of light flashed between his fingers.
"That's ...... Old Duke?" Ciri was a little shocked, "He's not dead?"
"That's right, I handed him a mushroom before I left...... Almost forgot ......"
"But...... The Dark Wizard...... It looks like ......" Ciri slowly shifted his body and saw that the dark wizard seemed unharmed!
"Kill!"
When the dark wizard fell to the ground, a group of dark guards who had fallen to the ground before had already reacted, slapped the ground one after another, and directly turned around and slashed towards the dark wizard!
At this time, the dark wizard was running out of old power and the new power was not born, and the unprepared hard resistance to the old Duke struck with all his might, even if he was a little uncomfortable......
At this time, in addition to being able to temporarily release a magic shield, it is too late to mobilize the power of the rules!
At this time, he is just an existence that is more powerful than ordinary high-level mages!
It's just that although the dark wizard is only on par with ordinary mages at this time, these dark guards are also seriously injured, and they can't exert their full strength with one blow!
There were a total of six Dark Guards who followed Ciri this time, but two of them were already unconscious in the previous attack, so only four of them slashed at the Dark Wizard at this time!
Because of the injuries of the four of them, there was already a slight deviation between their cooperation, and they should have slashed at the dark wizard at the same time, but at this time, there was a difference in order.
Invisibly, it gave the dark wizard an opportunity.
He blasted away with a spell of sorcery, interrupting an attack by one of the Guards, and then flashed to dodge another Guard's assassination......
Calculate the time accurately, and use your own magic shield to resist the remaining two attacks!
However, the magic shield was only a temporary release of the dark wizard, and the defensive strength was insufficient, even if it was calculated, there was still a fighting spirit that broke through the shield and slashed to the dark wizard's chest!
"Ahem...... Poof......" The dark wizard couldn't help but spat blood......
He glanced at the diminutive old Duke in the distance, and then at the four high-ranking guards who had fallen to the ground from exhaustion.
I couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Huh...... Hehe...... You're amazing...... Almost, I was really killed by you!"
As he spoke, a black mist began to envelop the dark wizard again.
Caught off guard before, some of the power of the rules was interrupted by Old Duke, and at this time it gradually began to collude......
"But that's it......, that's it!
"Poof!"
Before the dark wizard could finish speaking, he noticed that a sharp sword tip appeared in his abdomen......
"Poof!"
There was another sound, and the blade of the sword was also slashed along the opening......
“...... Dead ......" The dark wizard didn't expect this to happen at all, and his mouth continued to say the cruel words that he hadn't finished just now, but his body had already been disemboweled......
"Wow!"
The power that was about to envelop the dark wizard's body quickly dispersed, and the dark wizard slowly fell to the ground, and Old Duke saw Ciri holding a sword behind him, and on the other side, Yang Chen fell to the ground in the form of a child......
"It seems that it is finally over......" Old Duke also fell to the ground in a coma because of his exhaustion.
......
"Ah...... Ah Qiu ...... "Yang Chen only felt an itch in his nose, and couldn't help but sneeze......
Subconsciously touched his nose with his hand, but touched a long strand of hair.
Yang Chen woke up with a brush, and for a while, he only felt that the quilt he was covering seemed to be pressed by something, which made the body that should have been half-sitting up hit the bed again.
"Ah......" Ciri was awakened by this voice, and subconsciously looked around, only to find that it was Yang Chen who woke up, opened his sleepy eyes, and looked at Yang Chen for a long time before he smiled sweetly, "Are you awake?"
The moment Yang Chen sat up in Xili, he also slowly sat up, looking at Xili's delicate face, coupled with a few rays of the light of the newborn sunrise, a string in his heart was gently plucked.
He couldn't help but nod his head and said softly, "Well, I'm awake......"
