In the same dimly lit hall, Peterson's contemporary patriarch, Lyles took a sip of wine, his eyes were a little misty, his posture was not unbearable, and his consciousness was still sober, but the depressed spirit on his body was impossible to ignore. The old butler silently put away the empty bottle at his feet, and refilled the table with a full bottle of wine.

"Uncle Connor, sit, have something to say."

The old man was slightly stunned, but he didn't expect the young master to call him, but after a little hesitation, he carefully put down the empty bottle in his hand and sat down under Lyles.

"Uncle Connor, you've been taking care of us since my mother."

The old butler nodded, his mottled face softened a little, "Little master, your mother was also brought up by me when she was a child. ”

"Tell me about my mother." Lyles' voice was flat, his head bowed, the light dim, and he couldn't see his expression clearly.

"Mastermother......" The old butler recalled some distant memories, he didn't explore why the little young master remembered his mother on this night, but just followed the memory little by little, as if he thought of something interesting, his wrinkled face bloomed with a heartfelt smile, but he looked older.

"The housemother was the most naughty back then, and at the age of thirteen or fourteen, she caused trouble everywhere, and the children of the same generation in the clan were actually a little afraid of her. When she had bullied the children in the family enough, she began to go out with a group of slaves to play, and when she saw something unpleasant, she would definitely be upset. But it's always like this, how can anyone not touch the nail, once I met the eldest son of a rich family, and the two didn't know why there was a quarrel, and the temper of the main mother back then went straight to the action. But on the other side, after all, he is the first child in the clan, and the guards around him are much more powerful than the main mother's. As if thinking of the scene when the housewife was deflated, the old man laughed, but his voice was like a low cough, "Your mother suffered a loss, and she didn't tell the family, but where can that group of guards hide things, and they will say everything as soon as they drink two or two wines, and many children in the clan who have suffered losses feel that this is a turning point, and the housemother is really keeping to herself during that time, and they are becoming more and more arrogant." But how did they know that the housemother was the master who was willing to suffer, she was secretly planning during that time, so she relied on the little person in her hand to find out the habits of the son. Finally, one night a month later, when the little boy was about to return to the mansion after drinking, the master mother set up layers of ambushes and knocked down his guards one by one, and finally the little boy was left alone, hahahaha......"

Lyles listened quietly to the old man's story, and sometimes took a sip of wine, and grinned when he heard the funny place, but the sour feeling kept surging from his body, and easily rushed to the corners of his eyes, dripping out two lines of ravines......

From dusk to late at night, the old man's chatterbox was completely opened, as if he had accumulated too many words in his heart. Before you know it, all the wine has been drunk and the tears have dried up. Lyles raised his head, there was a little confusion in his eyes, only firmness, but the old man Connor, who had not been drunk, was already asleep.

Hill pushed the door open. He returned to the family mansion for two days, although there were some changes on the farm, but the shadow guard had another purpose and did not conflict with him, so he finally took all the resources he had stored. He expected that it would not be easy for the shadow guard to move in person, so he decisively gave up the opportunity to gather the remaining thirty percent of the reserves, and chose to return directly to Lyles's side.

"Patriarch......" Hill stopped talking.

Lyles waved his hand, "Forget it, Uncle Connor has taken care of my mother and me all my life, and if I am in his position, I can't compete with my father's power, so send him to Wendy and live for the rest of his life." You do it yourself. ”

"Yes." Hill bowed in response, and his heart was even more impressed. Lyles's strength and skill are in no way inferior to those of his peers in the family, and he had discovered many years ago that Connor would regularly report his situation to the old patriarch, but he had been holding back. Prior to this plan, Connor would have been an important part of paralyzing Berg, but Lyles simply gave up. Hill is only a marginal character in the entire family, so he can't understand it at all. Peterson was already a quasi-first-class family on the entire continent, so why did the Patriarch act like this. From his point of view, Lyles is definitely the best choice in the family.

Lyles gently lowered the empty bottle in his hand, "Let's get started." ”

Hill understood that this was just the patriarch's own words, all the plans were arranged by Lyles himself, and he had endured for more than ten years just for this day, how could he not understand where the plan had got.

"Ready."

Hill saluted again, picked up the sleeping old man, and exited the hall.

_______________________________________________________________________________

In the underground space, the sudden riot of the black mist caught Shadow San off guard, and the magic power in his body was instantly emptied, and he didn't even have time to put away the crystal sword, he suddenly swallowed a large amount of magic power stored in the sword, and won a very short time. And he immediately put away his long sword, his hands turned into afterimages, and he threw out more than a dozen iron plates. In an instant, all the iron disks released golden light, completely enveloping him, and then as the black mist pressed against his body, the situation immediately stabilized. But he was caught off guard, the magic power that had just been swallowed for a moment was too huge, and at this time, there was a faint feeling of oppression in his body, and he knew that some small blood vessels had burst, although it did not affect the overall situation, but it would always cause some trouble, and his strength would inevitably be damaged.

Everyone was affected at the same time, in no particular order, but unlike Shadow Three, the four of them were quite well prepared, and they did not cause the reversal of the flow of magic power in the first place, and they could still bear it at this time. But the black fog is obviously not just getting bigger, the suction is getting stronger rapidly, and it won't be long before it reaches a critical value, so the five of them can wait peacefully.

"Shadow Seven! What the hell is going on! Shadow Four shouted loudly regardless of the consumption, the situation had forced him to wait any longer, "If this is the case, we will break through separately, do you think this fog can trap us?" ”

"Wait, everyone, I'll take control." Shadow Seven also had to transmit the sound again, as Shadow Four said, the four of them were not unable to break through the blockade of the black fog at this time, but they secretly endured it based on the choices they made. When they pay far more than expected, it is impossible to sit still.

"Isn't that enough?" Shadow Seven muttered to himself, and without much thought, another token appeared in his hand, and the same ghost shadow was impressively stamped with the mark of "Eight". His right hand turned into an afterimage, swinging like a whip and even making a popping sound. The next moment, the token appeared in the storm on the stone table. Like the five tokens just now, black smoke erupted from the tokens. At the same time, the black fog surrounding the five people finally stopped, maintaining a huge state, but stagnating and expanding, and the picture seemed to fall into silence, waiting for the change to be completed in the storm.
