Later, in the rooms of the Royal Palace.

"You're a little weird today, Levy." Goth looked at his friend suspiciously.

"Nothing." Levi said.

At this time, the one in the palace is just a clone of Levi. All of Levy's doppelgangers share a single consciousness.

He was still reflecting on the battle he had just fought before. In this battle, he lost, lost completely! He failed to stop the "Emperor of the Eternal Night". Nearly eighty percent of the doppelgangers who had been made by consuming the wealth accumulated by the Fedorovich family over the years had died in this battle. The treasure given to him by the teacher, "Palm of the Underworld", I am afraid that it will also fall into the hands of the "Emperor of the Eternal Night".

"I'm going to lie dormant again." Lévy thought silently.

"Huh?" Goth, who decided that Levi was hiding something from him, was about to test him from a different angle, but was interrupted by a sudden knock on the door.

"You are?" Lévy walked to the door.

"Excuse me, honorable Lord Fedorovich," a female voice came from across the door, "Your Excellency has invited you to Jin. ”

"Am I the only one?" Levi asked.

"No, Mr. Goth and Miss Belveyle will be with them, too." The female voice said respectfully.

"Goth is a guest at my place," said Lévy, "and we'll be together in a moment." ”

"Please make sure that the two of you are as soon as possible," the female voice said, "the Prime Minister is very anxious. ”

Lévy turned his head to look at Goth next to him.

"She's not an ordinary maid," Goth said in sign language, "She should be a secret warrior. Asking a secret soldier to monitor us throughout the whole process, it seems that Chancellor Friedrich is really "in a hurry". 】

[Let's just do it.] Levi also replied in sign language. However, he secretly suspected in his heart that the "Emperor of the Eternal Night" led many secret warriors to raid the Engor Manor should not have been discovered yet. Could it be that apart from himself, there are other lurking powerhouses in Engor Manor?

--------------------

Rewind time minutes ago. A corner of the Engor estate.

The man in white, "Void Serpent" Victor, held his breath.

On a whim, I came to Ngol Manor to take a look at the eldest ladies in training, and the results ......

But he accidentally bumped into the real "big fish".

The secret ritual "Curved Light" that manipulates light, the secret ritual "Wind Rider" that manipulates wind and sound, and the secret ritual "Void Jump" that shuttles through space. Under the combined effect of the three secret rituals, Victor's actions are neither visible nor audible, and the route is unpredictable. Even the most sophisticated thieves will be willing to bow down to Victor's stealth skills.

There were a total of thirteen secret warriors who raided the manor. It is conservatively estimated that at least half of them are on par with their own strength. The strongest of the thirteen, undoubtedly the lion in the sand, Leonard? Schmidt.

There is no doubt that the case in the imperial capital these days has something to do with them. So, is Leon the murderer of the teacher's "Broken Scaly Fang"?

No...... The "Cliff" with the black scepter in front of him was even more suspicious, Victor thought. Just now, the entire manor's space was shaking. What exactly is he ......

"Someone else is coming." Victor, who was secretly observing the "Emperor of the Eternal Night", was nervous again.

……

"It's you."

Hearing Leon's voice, the "Emperor of the Eternal Night" hurriedly hid the "Palm Underworld" left behind by Levi into his pocket. There will be time to study it later.

"'Emperor of the Eternal Night', I wonder why you have been delayed for so long," Leon asked, his face full of doubt, "what is wrong?" You said you were coming to receive Angel, but what about Angel? ”

"There was a little accident," said the Emperor of the Eternal Night, "and it didn't hurt. Go, let's go to the hostages, I can open the door to the plane prison. ”

And Viktor, who was peeping from the sidelines, became anxious in his heart. Oops, he thought. If you let them join up with your subordinates, you won't find a chance.

They are the leaders of the enemy, and Victor's heart is like lightning. Kill them and your enemy's plans will be put to an end!

The Void Serpent made a decision in an instant. "Kill one of them by sneak attack," he thought to himself, "and then kill the other head-on!" ”

Victor clenched the snake whip in his hand. His only offensive secret weapon, Blood Shadow, is a trick that allows the whip to temporarily dissolve into nothingness, ignoring enemy defenses and passing through the enemy's body, destroying the enemy's organs and blood vessels. If it is used for assassination, it is very suitable.

Now all he's waiting for is an opportunity to make a move—

The black-robed man, "The Emperor of the Eternal Night", and Leon, the "Lion in the Sand", have both turned their backs. Which one to start?

In just half a second, Victor made his decision.

The black-robed man "Emperor of the Eternal Night"!

He was a mage, and he seemed to have just been through a fierce battle. Unlike the Mystic Warriors, once the mage has exhausted the prepared spells or mental power to the limit during the battle, the combat effectiveness will be greatly weakened. There is no doubt that now is the best opportunity to assassinate him.

Under the effect of "warp light", the light around Victor is completely distorted, making him completely invisible to the naked eye. And the "Wind Rider" firmly controls the wind element at his side, blocking all sounds. Now walking behind is none other than the "Emperor of the Eternal Night". He was defenseless......

"Blood Shadow!"

Victor roared in his heart. He unleashed his long whip and unleashed his unique attack ritual to target the heart of the "Emperor of the Eternal Night"—

……

Blood, flowing.

Victor looked at everything in front of him in disbelief. The whip he was bound to get was gone. And his shoulders were dripping with blood. He looked down and saw that it was a short blade made of sand. The short blade pierced deeply.

"You're too merciful, Leonard," the "Emperor of the Eternal Night" sneered, but didn't even look back, "why don't you let me do it?" If I had done it, he would be dead by now. ”

"You've just had a fight. Now it's my turn. Leon said.

"Waste of time. I'm going to go first. "The Emperor of the Eternal Night" snorted coldly.

"In three moves," Leon said, "the battle will be over." It's just the first move. ”

"Hmm......" felt a stinging pain in his shoulder, and Victor gritted his teeth. What happened just now...... Does this man have a secret instrument of detection......?

In any case, it is better to retreat and regain momentum, Victor thought to himself. But Leon obviously won't give himself this chance-

"Lion in the sand", his knife unsheathed.

The wind swept up the yellow sand. Both of them possess the secret ritual of the "Wind Rider", and each manipulates the wind elemental to collide in the air. The result of the contest was a complete rout for Victor, with strong winds crushing Victor on one side......

And that's exactly what Victor wanted. His wind neutralized more than ninety percent of the power of the Lyon wind, and the remaining wind just blew away his body. In the blink of an eye, Victor had been blown into the distance, and under the effect of "Curved Light", his white figure that had been stained red with blood quickly disappeared.

"Just like your teacher, 'Broken Scaly Fangs,'" said the Emperor of the Eternal Night, "knowing the cowards who escaped. ”

"Teachers are not ......"

In that moment, anger rushed to Victor's head. He was ready to immediately perform the "Void Jump" and flash hundreds of meters away, but the words of the "Eternal Night Emperor" made him lose his mind. He stood up straight in the air of his conditioned reflex.

"I can't do that!" Victor roared in his heart, "This is a trap! I should have run away immediately, right now! ”

…… It's late. Victor was only delayed for a second out of anger. And the winner is enough to decide in this second.

- Leon has rushed in front of Victor.

"The third move," Leon said, "is over, young mystical warrior. ”

"The murmur of the sand", waved down. The light of the knife tore through Victor's thin body, and blood gushed out, turning both him and Leon into bloody men.

Victor's body fell from the sky.

……

"Thank you," Leon sighed, looking down at Victor's motionless body on the ground, "'The Emperor of the Eternal Night'." ”

"'The Lion of the Desert', I think it's a bluffing lion," said the "Emperor of the Eternal Night," "Three moves? If I hadn't provoked him, you wouldn't have been able to stop him from escaping. And if you hadn't taken the lead and hurt the other party, it would have been difficult for you to win alone. ”

"You too, 'Emperor of the Night,'" Leon said sarcastically, "I don't know what opponent you've encountered. Obviously, your mental strength is so overdrawn that it is difficult to even stand, but you can barely hold on. If I hadn't shown up, I'm afraid ......"

The "Emperor of the Eternal Night" leaned against a wall. He took a bottle of spirit-boosting potion from his pocket and drank it. The potion does not work immediately, but it can bring you back to its peak within a few hours.

"Viktor, Serpent of the Void," the Emperor of the Eternal Night shook his head, "Luckily it's an inexperienced brat. Let's go. I don't know why he's here, but I'm afraid there will be more and more strong people coming. ”

The two quickly left. But neither of them noticed, and just as the two turned their backs, Victor's body moved slightly.

"The last ritual has worked," thought Victor, who was so angry that his chest was almost completely slashed open, and he was still conscious of the heart-rending pain, "and the 'illusionary' ritual made them think I was dead." Hurry up and ......."

……

in the Royal Palace.

In the main hall, Chancellor Friedrich was closing his eyes and recuperating.

"Victor." Suddenly he felt something.
