Chapter 43: Midnight Raid
Day 2: In the upper part of the Royal City of Rostas, there is a training ground in the manor house of the Grand Duke of Norris.
Sain is teaching Li Qiang various techniques for using a walking stick.
At this time, under the guidance of the butler, the second prince Karl hurriedly ran over. interrupted the two of them, and said happily to the two: "I have finished the investigation, I know who is behind the scenes, who is there, quickly." Let's go to the barracks together and discuss countermeasures,"
The two nodded, and together they followed the second prince, Karl, out of the manor and towards the barracks.
In the barracks, it was still the same small two-story building. The three of them sat around the table, and Carl took out the documents and handed them to the two. Then he slowly explained
"The man who lives in the streets of Tabon should be called Noel Augustus. He wasn't much of an aristocrat. ”
"He was an illegitimate son of the original House of Augustus, and had traveled the southern continent in his early years. Many nobles have visited him in an attempt to get a knighthood, but they have not succeeded,"
"The Augustus family, in the early years of the Civil War. Died because of the war,"
At this time, Noel Augustus, who was in exile, got the news. He once sent documents to the Noble Council in an attempt to inherit the fiefdom of the House of Augustus. so that I can become a nobleman."
The second prince, Karl, was very disdainful of this man named Noel Augustus, waved his hand impatiently, and then continued:
"Since he was an illegitimate child and had no blood succession papers, he could not be granted the benefits that the Augustus family had. So the Noble Chamber rejected his request. ”
"Then it disappeared into the Southern Highway. Some say he went to sea, others say he went incognito because of shame. ”
"But. In the past year, he suddenly appeared around the royal city again. befriended a few illegitimate children and a few businessmen. Using the recipe of this so-called flame pill, everyone was tied together, and together they formed the gang of Black Light. That's about how it goes. ”
Knight Theon nodded. "I know." Did this Noel Augustus know anyone? Is there any news about this character now? ”
The second prince Karl shook his head, and then said: "After my investigation, the person behind him has never appeared in the vicinity of the royal city or in the royal city, and I only know that this Noel Augustus came to the royal city alone, so it is likely that he has no direct contact with the people behind him at present,"
Li Qiang looked at the information of Noel Augustus, and then asked, "Then since this is the case, does it prove that this person is a bait in front of him?" ”
The second prince Karl shook his head without hesitation and said, "No demon clan would be stupid enough to attack the royal city of Rostas, because Rostas completed it. The seal was enough to suppress the strength of all demons, so no demon would be stupid enough to come to the royal city to do something. ”
Li Qiang didn't know if it was okay or not, so he didn't continue to say much.
Then the three of them discussed it together, and the next action was unanimously decided. I can't give it to the other party tonight. Timing of respite.
It's late afternoon. Second Prince Karl. Brought a suitcase and handed it to Li Qiang, and then said, "Master Ryan, this is the magic robe unique to our Knights of Gaunt. Can greatly resist magic damage. It can be said to be a must-have equipment for mages belonging to the Knights. ”
Li Qiang took the suitcase and slowly opened it, and inside was a pure white robe. Li Qiang picked up the robe, and the edges of the robe were inlaid. A series of patterns representing the Gaunt family.
At this time, the knight of Sain said on the side: "The Gaunt family is mainly white, so the equipment used by the Gaunt family is usually dyed white. Just like the Norris Grand Guild uses silver as the main color. ”
Li Qiang nodded, put on this magic robe, and walked two steps to feel extremely close.
Li Qiang thanked the second prince Carl. Help. Then the three of them got ready to go, just waiting for nightfall.
At night, the barracks are brightly lit. Karl spoke to several of his subordinates: "You guys. The entire brigade was led tonight by the Race Leader of the Knights of Sain. I want to completely take down the Arabella base camp of the so-called Black Light, including the various affiliated arsenals and magic factories. There can be no omission",
All the knights said in unison, "Yes." ”
Li Qiang looked at this group of knights and mages with some curiosity.
The knight of Seon next to him noticed it, and then explained to Li Qiang: "The Knights of Gaunt, there are two kinds of formations, one is knights. One is the mage. ”
"The Knight of Gaunt is good at using the heavy sword, so he is very capable of fighting head-on on the battlefield, especially. At the time of the frontal field battle, a pair of reorganized Knights of Gaunt. It can be done directly. The machine is crushed. A high-level demon. ”
"And you see the one holding the long mage staff with the bell hanging in his hand, that's the mage. Mage Gaunt is adept at using blessing spells. With their blessings, the Knights of Gaunt are invincible without fear of damage. ”
After listening to Knight Thane's explanation, Li Qiang nodded and said that he understood,
The second prince, Karl, continued: "Tonight. Mage Ryan and I went together to arrest the masterminds, and you were making a stir on the front. Cover for us."
The Heavy Knight replied in unison, "Yes."
The second prince Karl was satisfied. He waved his hand and said, "Then let's go."
Li Qiang and the second prince Carl slowly lurked around the streets of Taben. Slowly approaching the bottom of the small building No. 55.
I saw a white light in the southern sky. The white light was through, and the second prince Carl immediately made a gesture to Li Qiang when he saw the white light, and then rushed into the room first.
Carl chops off the butler's arm and kicks him out of the way, making his way to the roof. Access to the bedroom.
Saw. Noel Osgustas got dressed up and was about to flee.
The second prince and his sword are Augustus, and he picks up the long-handled sword without saying a word. Magical brilliance flickered. Slash at Augustus.
Augustus dodged away from the long-handled sword that slashed at him. looked at Carl with a look of surprise.
"Looks like I've been discovered. How did you find me? ”
The second prince, Karl, had no idea of telling the other party more information. With a wave of his left hand, a magical light appeared on the body of the second prince, Karl
"Battle Blessing".
I saw that the speed of the second prince Carl was much faster, and he continued to fight with Augustus.
Kill all the guards in the building. Li Qiang looked at Carl and Augustus, who were already fighting on the top floor.
Li Qiang said in his heart, this Carl is too anxious, so where is he going. If you are in such a hurry, you will do it directly with the other party.
I'm not afraid that the other party has a back hand and a Jedi counterattack.
Li Qiang shook his head and prepared to join the battle.
