"What are you guys doing! Are you crazy!? ”

The only remaining guard in the city guard where the weapons and offensive magic scrolls were stored was wounded, blood running down his upper body to his pants, and he leaned his back against the wall, threatening the front with his sword, but there was no response, except for the sword stab that followed.

But in the eyes of the citizens south of the city, he was not the only living guard at the scene. Because he was confronted by a group of men who were also dressed as Zebel guards, each with their swords stained red with blood, and from their feet to the three-story guard's house, lying strewn all over the body of the guards, all of whom had done it.

Passers-by only witnessed two waves of guards inexplicably clashing, and some even used magic to wipe out the people guarding the stronghold, who were originally preparing to support the castle in the northern city that was attacked by evil dragons.

The townspeople thought that the southern part of the city, far from the castle, would be a safe place, but they did not expect the same frightening deaths.

The pedestrians fled one after another, but among them, an old man who was calm and unhurried slowly stood up from the bench leaning against the house.

"Run, old man!" The young man shouted as he passed by, trying to reach out and drag him, but was dissuaded by the other man's ageing face, "... The guards are crazy, maybe they'll come against us later! ”

He ignored it, and the young man had to leave first.

He is the essence of Palmer. Before returning from the void, he immediately hid in an invisible corner when he found the signs, and the reshaped body used the soul as a condensation point, building a skeleton, weaving veins and muscles, and finally forming a skin.

However, the newborn body is just the opposite of the one that began to grow when he was young, and it is an old man who is almost dying, and then only when the physical body slowly recovers will his physical strength and magic return to his best.

Even though he struggled to use most magic, Palmer could use the illusion to weave a plain robe for himself to cover his newly reshaped nakedness, which he wore and no one recognized him on the street.

He had just thrown out a Paisi bird, and the first thing he did after his physical transformation was to write a letter asking for help, addressed to his senior, Greveld. Now that the royal capital is in danger, it is in urgent need of reliable strength, and only Greveld is an indispensable helper in the surrounding villages and towns.

Grevald is not good at flying magic, and if he rides a fast horse with enhanced physical fitness, it will take about a day to reach the royal capital, which is much faster than an ordinary march, and I hope his old body can support it.

Now that the castle is controlled by Rodney, it is really difficult to find a Pais bird that remembers the magical aura of Greveld, and it is not easy for Palmer to find one, or in the nearby alchemy material shop, Greveld occasionally buys alchemy recipes remotely.

Unexpectedly, I bumped into the puppet army attacking the stronghold.

Are the soldiers finally on the move...... Palmer quietly turned on the detection magic in his pupils, and saw through the magic disguise, and the appearance of the Standy Kingdom Army was unobstructed in his eyes.

Earlier, when he was in the throne hall as a geist, he already knew that there were about 10,000 disguised troops in the city.

Palmer threw his head back and unleashed three consciousnesses, one to the northern suburbs and the other two to the castle's hidden exit, which led to the secret basement.

Along the way, the geist possesses a soaring eagle in the air, and its orbiting trajectory changes abruptly, turning downwards and swooping down on a gecko that realizes something is wrong and chooses to flee with a broken tail.

But just as the gecko broke its tail, another geist leaned over it, stopped suddenly, and was obediently caught by the goshawk.

In a small grove on the outer wall of the castle, this is also part of the castle, and ordinary civilians are not allowed to enter and leave without permission. Under a colossal statue of Mori, the god of wood, a heavy door rumbles open with a square groove on the front of the pedestal.

Rodney, along with King Charles, who was escorted by soldiers, appeared in the shadow behind the door.

and a squeaky rat that followed and was trampled to death by the soldiers. It was the animal that Pammel first possessed, and it was because of it that Pammel knew King Charles's movements.

The goshawk carrying the lizard is just in time, and the moment the rats are trampled to death, Palmer loses their position.

Skimming low in the air, the eagle loosens its talons, causing tiny lizards to fall onto the blades and cushion them to the ground.

"Why are you doing that?" The eldest princess, Felicia, asked.

Although King Charles had the same doubts at first, Rodney did not say so.

"I've got a safe house out of the city, you have to live, Felicia, I'm doing it all for you." As he spoke, Rodney raised his hand to open a wide portal circle in front of everyone, "And I don't have any hatred for His Majesty, you can live, even if it's for Felicia." ”

King Charles was dismissive of Rodney's well-intentioned behavior.

A tailless lizard scurbled past the ground covered in fallen leaves, but it didn't attract anyone's attention.

Immediately after that, it ran up the leg of King Charles's trousers, and hid in the hem of his clothes.

Palmer was glad to catch up, because it wasn't long before King Charles and the eldest princess were forced to pass through the portal under the forced leadership of Rodney. One step later is a thousand steps away, and it is not so easy to find the trace of King Charles again.

Then, no matter how far away the safe house is, how hidden it is, he can find the door to rescue His Majesty, and his magic is gradually recovering.

Thinking of this, Palmer smiled faintly.

And his other wandering spirit found a new crow nearby, and he had new news to tell Xia Zuo.

Even if His Majesty is safe for now, as long as Rodney lives for a day, it will be a threat to the Kingdom of Andoo, and the entire kingdom is still in his hands.

The crow flew over the city gate, swept over the forest leaves, and went backwards along the river, and after a while, he saw the figures of Xia Zuo and Long Ge heading south.

"There is new news~ Xia Zuo! There's new news! As he approached, Palmer's voice was particularly excited under the crow's tone.

kept yelling, and after arriving, it flew around Xia Zuo at close range twice, provoking Long Ge to cast a disgusted look.

Under the dynamic vision, he quickly reached out and grabbed the blackbird.

The crow struggled a few times, "Even if you pinch it to death, I won't have the slightest pain, miss..."

The nervousness is due to the fact that even if there is no pain, finding another animal to possess the body to transmit a message will produce unnecessary mana consumption, and any little bit of magic power is precious to the reshaped body that is currently desperately lacking in magic power.

"Long Ge, listen to what he has to say." Xia Zuo blocked.

"I didn't plan to pinch it to death, it's just that it's too much of an eyesore to go around~" Long Ge said with a smile to Xia Zuo.

"Here's your chance! The opportunity has come, the stranger Xia Zuo. The crow made an excited sound.

"yes, why do you have to repeat it twice."

"Sorry, possession will take on some host characteristics," the crow flapped its wings, "Listen to me, Rodney is in a fight with another commander!" And locked up the commander. Your Majesty is safe for the time being, now is a golden opportunity! ”
