The half-scorpion mercenaries guarding the castle's atrium are either dead or fleeing, and Roland is leading the Redstone Guards to search the various rooms in the castle. Baron Hurd knew very well that it would not be long before the other party would break into this place, and it would be up to him whether he would live or die.

The former overlord of southern Xinjiang was on the verge of a mental breakdown at this time, slumped among the gold bricks on the ground, panting, his face was as pale as ashes, and he pulled out a dagger inlaid with gems and tried to insert it into his heart, but his trembling wrists could not exert his strength.

At this moment, the door of the secret room was suddenly slammed open, and Baron Hurd dropped his dagger with a scream, and looked at the door with a frightened face.

A figure in a gray cloak hurried in, grabbing Baron Hurd's wrist without saying a word.

"Your Excellency, this is dangerous, we need to get out of here."

"Huh? It's you...... Master Gaode! Baron Hurd saw the other party's face clearly and breathed a sigh of relief, "I thought it was the rebels who broke in." ”

"They're actually coming, and we've got to get out of here before they break in." Master Gaode pulled out a magic scroll from his pocket, "This 'Return Mantra' can teleport us to Media, where we will be safe. ”

"Medes is Prince Meyer's territory, and it's safe, but ...... Just the two of us? Baron Hurd hesitated.

"It's a pity, Your Excellency, apart from me, it's hard to find anyone else in Mochizuki City who is willing to follow you and flee." Master Gao De's words are sarcastic.

"But what about my gold, I can't give it up to those damned traitors!"

Looking at the mountains of gold bricks in the secret room, Baron Hurd's eyes were full of regret and reluctance, this is the family property that he has accumulated over the past ten years of secretly operating a gold mine, who would have thought that half a life of hard work would be made for people to make wedding dresses? The thought that the mountain of gold in front of him would no longer belong to him made Baron Hurd's heart ache.

"Fool who doesn't know the severity!" Master Gao De couldn't bear it anymore, slapped His Excellency the Baron fiercely, and reprimanded angrily: "Is it true that gold is more precious than life in your eyes? If you really think so, then stay here and bury your gold, I don't want to die with you! Then he turned and walked out the door.

"Master Gaode! Wait for me, wait for me! Baron Hurd woke up like a dream and hurriedly chased after him.

The druid stopped, unfolded the scroll in his hand, and whispered a incantation. At the same time that the door on the first floor was smashed open by the Redstone Guards, a teleportation light array rose from under the feet of Master Gao De.

Baron Hurd glanced back at the treasure in the secret room, gritted his teeth and resolutely turned around, and ran quickly to Master Gaode's side. The teleportation light array rose into the sky, and the two figures disappeared at the same time.

"Damn! One step too late and let that guy run! Veronica rushed into the chamber and stomped her feet in anger as she watched the magical glow of the teleportation spell fade.

There was a sound of footsteps behind them, and Lyudmila and Tonya hurried in, and the first thing they saw was the large gold bricks piled up in the basement, and they were speechless for a long time in shock by this golden scene, until Roland also entered the secret room, looked at the thousands of gold bricks and whistled.

"Baron Hurd's family background is really not ordinarily rich." I picked up a gold brick and weighed it, about 50 pounds, and weighed it heavily in my palm.

"Roland! Rowland! Guess how many gold bricks there are here? Lyudmila rubbed her hands together excitedly.

Roland looked around and saw that there were no less than 3,000 gold bricks piled up along the walls of this square-wide underground vault, which was about 7.5 million gold talers, which was a lot of wealth.

"It is estimated that there will be no less than 3,000 gold bricks, why don't you count them yourself?" Roland made a joke casually, but he didn't expect the giant girl to take it seriously, turned around and pulled Tonya to whisper a few words, and the two girls began to divide the labor: one was responsible for counting the gold bricks on a wall.

Veronica had long been accustomed to the mountains of gold and silver in the treasury of the royal family of Parnia, and this room of gold bricks was not worth making a fuss about in her eyes, and it was both angry and funny to see Lyudmila and Tonya with their faces full of concentration, counting the bricks there.

"I said you don't bother counting the gold bricks yet, Baron Hurd just teleported away from here!"

"Huh? That guy was pretty fast. Roland walked over to Veronica and looked in the direction of her finger, "Roney, are you sure that Baron Hurd teleported from here?" ”

"I'm sure!" Veronica nodded seriously, and hurriedly added, "But I'm not sure if it's him who cast the teleportation spell, because there was another person who accompanied him to teleport away at the time, but unfortunately he didn't have time to see his appearance clearly." ”

"Don't worry, I have a way to find out what happened to them." A silver glint appeared in Roland's eyes, and he entered a state of "Mind Concentration", spending 7 psionic energy to show the fourth-order ability "Tracking Teleportation", and the remaining magic fluctuations in the secret room showed clear traces in his eyes.

"It's ...... Back to the mantra? Roland muttered to himself while maintaining his apparent concentration, "I went to Media." ”

"Media? This place name is familiar and seems to be the border fortress of Canaan. Veronica thought to herself.

Roland nodded, "It is a city located near the border between Canaan and our Far East, with a population of more than 200,000, much larger than Mochizuki City, Medes was originally built as a military fortress to resist the expansion of the Assanian Empire from west to east, and it also has the purpose of monitoring the desert psionic royal family and curbing the northward movement of sand bandits, but in the past twenty years, there has been no war on the frontier, and Medes have also transformed from a military fortress to a commercial city where Canaan and the Far East and desert nomads conduct trade activities, of course, This also includes trade that is not legal in the Far East, such as the sale of slaves. ”

"Baron Hurd set Medes as the destination of the 'Return to Mantra', which shows that he has long considered leaving this back road for himself, and regards the border fortress of the Canaanites as his refuge, which means that in his heart Medes are safer than Mochizuki City." Veronica's face gradually became serious, "Maybe Baron Hurd didn't regard the Far East as his homeland from the beginning, and he was simply a spy for Canaan!" ”

"I don't rule out this possibility, but for people like Baron Hurd, he shouldn't be asked to have any patriotic feelings, all he loves is money, and whoever can bring him benefits will take refuge in whomever he wants, and he didn't hesitate to spend a lot of money to buy a knighthood in the imperial province era, and now that the empire's rule in the Far East has been overthrown, the Kolas government can't accept his illegal rule in southern Xinjiang, and it makes sense to go to Canaan to seek support, but it's not necessarily a professional spy." Roland said lightly.
