Chapter 81: The Seed of Cause

Ye Qi, who took two steps forward, seemed to have thought of something, and paused slightly-

"Please take these potions!"

Ye Qi took out the five elixirs of [Bear Tenacity], [Brute Bull Strength], [Cat Elegance], [Owl Insight], and [Eagle Radiance] that he had refined in the wizard tower before, one by one, and handed them to the Grand Duke of Snowy Night.

"In a battle, there will always be accidents, and if possible, we should minimize such accidents! After all, as the Grand Duke of the Duchy, you are not alone - behind you, there are the people of the entire Principality of Snowy Night, who need you to lead! ”

Ye Qi looked at the slightly hesitant Grand Duke of Snow Night and persuaded in the most appropriate way.

And undoubtedly, such persuasion was very effective, and the Grand Duke of Snow Night stretched out his hand to take the potion.

"These potions increase Constitution, Strength, Agility, Perception, and Charisma, respectively, for about an hour or so - forgive me, for not experimenting with them before...... These are some of the 'new' potions I made on my way to the Duchy of Snowy Nights! ”

Ye Qi admonished the Grand Duke of Snow Night, and bit down on the word 'new'.

If you want to make a potion that you make shine and be watched by the world, you naturally need a stage to demonstrate the effects of the potion, and what is more suitable than a battlefield?

With this battlefield, it was only a very small-scale battle - after the [Perception] with the immortal level and the special specialty [Blind Combat Perception] were superimposed, Ye Qi very clearly confirmed the location and number of enemies, as well as some people who needed special attention; And again, it is precisely because of this confirmation. It was only then that Ye Qi finally decided to take out these potions.

After all. In order to cover up the situation that he could not shoot with all his strength.

It's hard to guarantee that there won't be some 'surprises'. And under such a premise, the safety of the Grand Duke of Snowy Night has naturally become the top priority.

Therefore, a grand duke with the power of self-preservation is undoubtedly reassuring.

Of course, it's not that the Grand Duke of Snow Night is weak—compared to ordinary people, this female Grand Duke is quite strong, but compared to some special beings among the offenders this time. But it's much weaker.

However, this is only in the ordinary state.

With the blessing of those potions, Ye Qi believed that the performance of the Grand Duke of Snow Night would surprise those people after that, and even come up with a beautiful counter-kill.

And in this regard, Ye Qi naturally couldn't ask for it.

After all, what could be better than a factual 'advertisement'?

"Thank you!"

The female archduke, who didn't know Ye Qi's deeper plans, thanked her very sincerely.

Facing help instead of thanking is not the style of the Grand Duke of Snow Night, even if she says thank you. It's the same with someone who didn't make a good impression on her before.

Naturally, Ye Qi's shot before. Coupled with the potion at this moment, it greatly reversed the impression of the Grand Duke of Snow Night on him.

From what didn't seem to be reliable, it has changed to a level where it looks quite reliable.

"This is what I should do!"

Seeing that the Grand Duke of Snow Night had taken the potion, and a shocked look appeared on his face, Ye Qi bowed slightly, and walked towards the Wizard Tower again.

Each potion will be divided into different grades due to its own potency.

And the five potions that can be called secret medicines, [Bear Tenacity], [Brute Bull Power], [Cat Elegance], [Owl Insight], and [Eagle Radiance], are naturally different.

Even, because of some changes in Ye Qi, the effect of the medicine has reached a higher level.

Of course, this is also because Ye Qi has [Bear Tenacity] in his spell list, and through some coincidental experiments, the five secret elixirs have been improved again.

However, Ye Qi naturally wouldn't tell the female archduke in front of him about these innocuous things - the shock of the unknown is what is truly memorable.

Ye Qi undoubtedly knows this.

So, when the Grand Duchess raised her head to look for Ye Qi again, Ye Qi and his wizard tower had long since disappeared.

"This is the potion he created?"

The Grand Duke clenched her fists, feeling the amount of force pouring out of her body, and couldn't help muttering to herself; Soon, however, the Grand Duchess came to her senses, and walked at a faster pace among the guards and militiamen, arranging her fortifications loudly.

……

Just as the female archduke was making an orderly arrangement, a burst of angry voices came from the dense forest—

"Damn, damn it, you bunch of wine bags and rice bags!"

In such shouting and scolding, there is indescribable anger.

In the face of such anger, those robbers and bandits who were scolded shrank their necks like quails, not daring to make any sound, and just bearing the scolding of the black-robed person opposite, as if doing so could make the other party's anger dissipate.

But, in fact, not only did this not make the black-robed man's anger dissipate, on the contrary, it made his anger more and more intense and intense.

Even, he began to wonder if he had chosen to gather this rabble in the first place, and whether he was right.

"Fifty elites carrying thirty large crossbows, the elites didn't even release a single arrow, and they all died there......" Every word made the black-robed man's breath short, his chest twitched up and down like a bellows, and the voice was even more hoarse as if he had been squeezed out of a crack in the rock.

And underneath these, there is a deep distress.

Of course, he will definitely not feel sorry for the death of those 'elites', but for those crossbows!

After all, in the sense of ownership, those thirty large crossbows were completely his own property!

"My lord, it's the wizard......"

Looking at the black-robed man's silent appearance, the leader of a robber said cautiously.

"Wizard? Didn't I warn you before I acted? ”

Hearing such an explanation, which was not even prevarication, the black-robed man suddenly jumped up, and a green light flashed in his palm.

Suddenly. The robber leader who opened his mouth to explain. He let out a terrible roar. fell to the ground, and the whole person seemed to be watered with concentrated sulfuric acid, and melted away like this.

And in the process, his wails have not stopped, and even become more and more miserable, which is unbearable to look at.

The robbers and bandits around him looked at this fallen colleague in silence, except for glad that he had not made a bird before. It's more about liver and gallbladder splitting.

Because, what happens to the colleagues in front of you is likely to be what happens to them in the future.

The wailing stopped abruptly!

The leader of the melted robbers slammed his head into the trunk of the tree with all his might, and ended his own life; However, the effect of the spell continued until he completely turned into a puddle of green water, and then it stopped.

"Now, I'm going to give you another chance...... Go and break the Snowy Night Castle for me! Remember, this is the last chance! ”

The black-robed man looked at the pool of green water and said word by word.

And the bandits and bandits who were present. Without a word of rebuttal, they ran to their own people one after another. began to gather his subordinates, preparing to launch a siege battle.

It is clear that this is not a simple battle, and it is likely that there will be death.

But it's better than staying here and dying, right?

Therefore, every bandit and bandit leader is unusually positive!

As for escaping?

Every bandit or bandit leader who knows the true background of the other party will not do this-because it will only make them be caught in a very short period of time, and then die even more miserably.

The black prison of the aristocracy is always so terrifying.

And some of their former colleagues have already demonstrated it to them.

So, there is only one way in front of them-

Defeat the Snowy Night Castle!

"A bunch of rubbish!"

Looking at the swarming team, the black-robed man commented coldly; Then, as if remembering something, he raised his hand and waved a curtain of light, on which a figure flickered—

"That Joe, is there a possibility of being co-opted?"

The black-robed man looked at the figure in the light curtain and asked directly.

"I haven't been in contact with that Master Joe...... However, judging from the information I have gotten, it is not easy to win over that Master Qiao! ”

The figure in the light curtain gave an answer that made the black-robed man more and more dissatisfied.

"I don't know how to lift!"

The black-robed man snorted coldly.

"Do you need me to help you?"

The figure in the light curtain asked.

"No need...... After all, that guy had just arrived here from the Imperial Capital, and His Majesty's eyes would definitely stay a little longer—it wasn't too late to clean him up later, and now, what we needed was to break through the Snow Night Castle; So, that guy just needs to find a few people to entangle him! ”

The black-robed man waved his hand and rearranged the plan.

"As you wish!"

The figure on the light curtain disappeared as soon as he bowed slightly.

And the black-robed man who raised his hand again and scattered the light curtain stood in this forest like this, looked in the direction of Snow Night Castle, and smiled coldly: "Pendragon? I'm going to make your reputation disappear from Lorante, once and for all! ”

Like a curse that sounded from the abyss underground, such a voice echoed back and forth in this dense forest, and the black-robed person who knew the Dao Dao also disappeared before gradually disappearing.

Just after the black-robed man disappeared and the voice disappeared, where the black-robed man was standing, a light flashed, and a figure suddenly appeared.

If it was the black-robed man who saw this scene, he would definitely be surprised.

Because, this person really talked to him before, and he should still be a partner in the imperial capital!

"Stupid ......"

In a low whisper, a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of the man's mouth, and then, as before, disappeared again.

……

The Wizard's Tower is invisible in mid-air, a place close to the dense forest and connected to the hill, which is not very noticeable, but it can overlook the whole picture.

Ye Qi stood at the window of the wizard tower, looking at the flickering figures in the dense forest, with a cold gaze in his slightly narrowed eyes.

Ye Qi didn't have a good impression of these robbers and bandits.

In other words, Ye Qi has no good feelings about robbers and bandits of any era - perhaps, they have unspeakable reasons. There is no way to do it.

But. When the butcher's knife was raised. When faced with civilians who were just like themselves, they were already heinous.

If they killed a wizard nobleman, Ye Qi might still have a point or two of appreciation, but if he completely stood on the corpse of a commoner and plundered the wealth, Ye Qi definitely didn't have the slightest affection for him.

What's more, these people are more than that-

Human trafficking!

This is a word that Ye Qi has seen in books. But when he saw it with his own eyes, the real cruelty made him feel the urge to draw a knife and cut people.

If a robber who kills is still a human being, then the same person is not a human being if he is sold as a commodity!

It is even said that such a guy should not even exist, and should be directly erased.

Ye Qi took two deep breaths, adjusting the killing intent in his heart - because. He knew that these robbers and bandits who worked as human traffickers part-time. It's not something he needs to target.

These guys were the targets of the Grand Duchess.

As for him?

Ye Qi raised his head slightly, looked at the void not far away, and smiled coldly.

In that void, the snow fell, and under the gray sky, there was no trace of disturbance—perhaps, at first, such a snow scene was worthy of people's attention, but after a long time, the bitter cold temperature and the cold wind that blew from time to time only made people take refuge in aggravation, build a brazier or two, squat by the fire, and take two sips of spirits.

However, the place where Ye Qi's gaze was fixed was a little different.

Because, it is even colder, and even freezes into the bone marrow.

Any mortal who dared to look at it would definitely be frozen in the next moment, and even some low-level apostles would feel uncomfortable looking there.

And only when you reach a transcendent existence can you sense that something is wrong.

In fact, the reason why Ye Qi chose such a place and parked the wizard tower here was more to lure this guy over.

In his immortal-level [perception], the other party was too conspicuous.

After all, an existence that has stepped into the middle between immortal and legendary, among a bunch of existences whose highest is only about the peak of the moonlight level, this is completely out of the crowd.

As for the stealth of the Wizard Tower?

It may be a good spell for other beings, but it's just a trick for reaching a transcendent being.

Therefore, Ye Qi is very sure that the other party can easily find him.

As long as the other party is here for him!

And from now on, the other party is indeed here for him!

As for what?

Ye Qi took a slow breath, and his gaze looked farther away-

There was a flash of a special aura, although it was a flash, but it really caught Ye Qi's attention.

It is the place where the gods fight.

And the breath that could not be suppressed could even slightly affect Lorante, allowing the Snowy Night Principality to enter the 'Snowy Night' in advance.

Or rather...... It was precisely in order for the Duchy of Snow Night to enter the 'Snow Night' that such a war took place.

And the goal of 'them'......

Naturally, it's the Principality of Snowy Night!

The gods also need a bridgehead, and the Duchy of Snowy Night is undoubtedly a very good location - located on the edge of Lorante, but connected to several rich principalities (Autumn Forest District, and the unseen Yellow Sand District), once it really stands on its feet, it can immediately introduce the flames of war to Lorante, attracting the attention of the wizarding emperors.

Undoubtedly, the battle situation in the land of the gods' conquest was not as smooth for the gods as it seemed.

Or rather, at some point, something speculative happened.

After all, since the birth of Lorante, the gods have not been monolithic, and those battles have long been no secret, Ye Qi knows very clearly, especially after his contract companion told him some things, it makes Ye Qi very clear that the battle between the gods is going on.

However, no matter what it is, Ye Qi doesn't need to dig deeper-

As the snowflakes flew, a figure began to loom.

It's as if it's blue smoke, and the feeling of virtual reality becomes less real in an instant.

Even, everything has a kind of stillness...... Or rather, disappeared for a moment.

And when everything returned to normal, a figure had already appeared in front of Ye Qi.

Although it has the appearance of a human being, the breath that is not human is not concealed in the slightest, as if looking at another statue.

"Carving insect skills!"

After the visitor said in a low voice, his eyes looked in the direction of the wizard tower, and then, with a wave of his hand, the wizard tower suddenly appeared.

The other party looked at Ye Qi in the wizard tower, and the sarcastic smile on the corner of the other party's mouth was still retained.

"Master Qiao, hello!"

As if the disdainful words before did not come from its mouth, the other party slowly bowed and bowed to Ye Qi with an inexplicable etiquette.

Ye Qi didn't answer, just looked at the other party carefully.

Although the other party was wearing a hood, some of the tattoos that appeared on his face looked like tattoos and natural scales, and he couldn't help but squint slightly. Undoubtedly, the battle with the gods has already begun.

And as the minions of the gods, those alien races, will naturally appear at the most opportune time.

It's like now!

"Sea Clan?"

Ye Qi asked.
