Chapter 125: Duke of Silver Star

"Lady Viola?"

Roger had an ambiguous expression on his face, "She's your crush recently?"

"Ahem......" Wren nodded generously and acknowledged, and said, "It's not just a lover, she's my girlfriend." ”

Roger nodded in understanding, putting away a teasing smile. Zoltan, who was next to him, had already finished writing the book of hatred, and when he heard the conversation between the two, he scratched his head and said, "Viola? ”

Without waiting for Wren to explain, the dwarf suddenly slapped his thigh and said in surprise: "Wren, she won't be the half-elf boss of the Violet House, right?"

"Yes, you know Viola?" Wren was a little surprised.

Zoltan runs a hotel in the Rien district all the year round, and the Rien district is a slum area, which is like two worlds from the Silver Star district, which is relatively far away, and there should be no intersection.

"I haven't met her, but I've heard that the Half-Elf is often mentioned in inns by transcendents, claiming to be the most beautiful woman they've ever seen, and there's not a few women in the entire Empire who can match her. ”

Zoltan shook his head and said, "These transcendents play cards and brag all day long, and they can fight for a small thing for a long time, and they don't hesitate to fight, but when it comes to this Viola, everyone who has seen her thinks that she is a rare and stunning beauty in the world, which is a rare thing for them to reach a consensus, so I remember it very clearly." ”

Roger listened with some curiosity, he had been in Lonzud for a relatively short time, and he had never heard of Viola's name.

So he asked Wren, "Is your girlfriend really so beautiful?"

Wren was a little proud in his heart, but he glanced at Roger with some vigilance, and he had to guard against this veteran of the love scene, and said reservedly: "It's okay, Viola is indeed quite good-looking." ”

"You kid......"

Roger shook his head with a smile, didn't say anything more about it, and instead asked, "Can she contact the Duke of Silver Star?"

"Viola is the great-granddaughter of Duke Silverstar and can be seen at any time. ”

Wren showed the microphone in his hand and said worriedly: "But I suspect that the microphone of the demon slayer team has been secretly monitored. ”

The microphone has a function much like a walkie-talkie, and each demon slaying team has an independent sound channel, so that when one team member speaks, everyone else can hear it.

If someone secretly manipulated and equipped with an additional microphone, then the entire demon slaying team would have no secrets to speak of.

Wren's last report suspected that there were not only moles in the Sheriff's Bureau, but also that the rumors were not safe.

Otherwise, those Lohi believers would not have reacted so quickly, not only calmly withdrew, but also prepared to deal with it, so that the demon slaying team could not find any clues.

Even if he goes to the Duke of Silver Star through Viola, it is still very likely that the secret will be leaked and detected by the Shadow Blade in advance.

Roger took the microphone and looked at it a few times but found no clues.

He shook his head, "The situation is urgent now, whether we can contact the Duke of Silver Star or not, the Shadow Blade will detonate the fortress and passage at any time." ”

"Yes, so even a leak doesn't bother. ”

Wren didn't hesitate at all, "At least we can't make the Shadow Blade fully prepared, if the Duke of Silver Star moves fast enough, maybe it's still too late." ”

"It's best if Duke Silverstar can kill them all. Zoltan said hatefully.

Wren nodded and fell silent.

If Duke Silverstar hadn't been able to stop the Shadow Blade and the passage had been blown up, they would have been trapped in Ironbeard Fortress and would have to find another way.

The conversation between himself and Pollock did not reveal much useful information.

However, at this point in time, and Viola's identity sensitivity, it is still possible for Shadowblade to deduce useful information if the microphone is actually being monitored.

It wasn't until half an hour later that the microphone vibrated again, and Wren pressed to receive, and Pollock's voice came out: "I've arrived." Then Viola's voice asked, "Wren, what's so urgent?"

She knew Wren was in the Underground Fortress, so she didn't ask where he was.

Wren had already thought about the wording, and said quickly: "Viola, you go to see the Duke of Silver Star immediately, Shadow Blade has dug a tunnel in the Sword of Oath on Brent Street, leading to the Wizard Tower, the target is the core of Eola, and the leader is Halken and Tinos, they are also preparing to blow up the passage to cause disaster, the microphone may be monitored, so you must be fast." ”

After sending the message, it only took a few seconds for the microphone to vibrate.

"I'll go to the Wizard's Tower right now. Viola, who has always been calm and elegant, is a little flustered at the moment.

Immediately, the microphone became silent, and there was no reply.

Wren let out a long breath.

From this moment on, things can erupt at any time.

All three were aware of this, but could only wait in the dark.

Vigo Manor is very close to the Wizard Tower, less than two hundred meters in a straight line, almost at the foot of the tower, Viola enters the tower to make a detour to the Silver Star Academy, it only takes less than three minutes.

The problem is that it is not so easy to meet the Duke of Silverstar, even Viola has to be briefed and delayed a little.

The worst-case scenario is that the Duke of Silver Star is not in the tower, and if no one can be found for a while, it will be all over.

It's a race against time, between Duke Silver Star and Shadow Blade, whoever reacts faster and starts earlier will win the game.

None of the three of them spoke, nervous and waiting for the result.

As the minutes ticked by, there was no movement on the upper floors of the fortress, and there was no response from the microphone.

Zoltan clenched his fists and walked up and down the stone house, fidgeting. Just as he was about to hold back his question, the button of the microphone lit up.

Viola's voice rang out: "The Duke already knows, I am gathering the Secret Fire Guard, and the Duke himself has gone to Brent Street first." ”

"Great!" Zoltan cheered.

Wren and Roger breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, apparently, this time Shadow Blade's reaction was a step slower.

However, before they could rejoice, a rumbling sound came overhead.

The entire Ironbeard Fortress was shaking slightly, dust was falling, and many of the already fragile buildings in the caverns collapsed in the shaking, as if a major earthquake had occurred.

The three of them hurriedly ran out of the collapsed stone house and stood in an open place.

The tremors lasted less than ten seconds and ended quickly without causing a larger collapse.

But Wren's mood couldn't help but sink.

This was on the fourth floor, far from the first level of the fortress, but the vibrations could be transmitted, which was enough to show how strong the explosion was.

The space of the Ironbeard Fortress is very large and complex, and it is impossible for the Shadow Blades to destroy the entire fortress, they only need to blow up the passage and the first layer and part of the space, causing a chain reaction.

Even if you don't get the Core of Eola, you can inflict heavy damage on Longshand, and maybe even the Wizard's Tower.

"We can't get out. Zoltan looked anxious.

Wren calmed down and said to the microphone, "Viola, what's going on outside?

After half a minute, Viola responded: "The Wizard Tower has not fallen, but there has been an earthquake in the Silver Star District, many places have fallen, the Duke is fighting the enemy, and I and the Secret Fire Guard are also going to hunt down the enemy." Wren, are you okay in the Stronghold?"

"I'm safe, you have to be careful. Wren replied.

"It doesn't seem like the worst is out yet. Roger shook his head and said, "Duke Silver Star made a move, those Luo Xi believers should not be able to escape, don't worry about them anymore." What we have to think about now is how to get out of the fortress. ”

Zoltan said depressedly: "The passage on the first floor will definitely not be able to get out. ”

"If you can't go up, we'll go down. Wren had already thought about it, "There is an underground river below the tenth floor, and I heard a voice when we passed by before. ”

He explained, "The passage on the first level was dug out by the Shadow Blade, and before that, how did Elfa the Great and Walden get out? ”

"Yes. Zoltan was shaken.

However, he hesitated a little, "Go to the underground river, but I didn't prepare underwater breathing medicine." Roger suddenly took out a few bottles of potion from his waist pouch and said with a smile: "I'm ready." ”

Wren's eyes lit up, the witcher was worthy of a potion jar, and he had always been the most prepared in terms of potions.

The three of them immediately went into action.

Because of the familiar route, it took less than an hour to go down from the fourth floor to the eighth floor.

When passing through the night goblin battlefield, it was found that the great war had stopped, and there were corpses everywhere, and there were very few night goblins that survived, probably only two or three thousand in total.

Wren secretly regretted that after this cannibalism, it would take many years for the night goblins to repopulate a large population.

Descending from the eighth floor, it didn't take long to reach the tenth floor, which was the lowest level of the fortress.

The area of this layer is very small, full of primitive karst caves, living some strange small animals, the environment is humid, and the terrain is complex.

Wren followed the sound of the water and soon found an underground river.

The river is only a few meters wide and is located in a narrow cavern, with a slow but steady flow into the dark underground space where it leads.

Wren, aided by the will to truth, saw through the darkness.

The water was still relatively clear, and there were many fish swimming in the water, so he immediately found a few traces of artificial excavation, and a few thumb-thick steel nails were nailed deep into the rock bed at the bottom of the river.

Only a small section of the steel nail is exposed, one every three to four meters, all the way downstream.

This should be a signpost left by those who came before us.

Wren told the two of them what he had discovered, and without hesitation, they drank the underwater breathing potion and jumped into the river.

The river water is cold, and if it is an ordinary person, it may not be able to stand it for a few minutes, but for the three of them, it is not too uncomfortable. The effect of the underwater breathing agent can make people breathe in the water with only a little stuffiness, but there will be no feeling of drowning.

A bottle of underwater breathing medicine can last more than an hour.

Wren swam at the front, and every time he reached a fork in the dark river, there were steel nails to point out the direction.

I don't know how far I swam, but after more than half an hour, a bright light appeared in front of me, and Wren also heard the sound of fierce water, and quickly accelerated to swim over, passing through a hidden stone crevice, and found himself in a deep underwater, and the bright light shone down from the top of his head.

He swam more than ten meters and finally came out of the water and breathed in the fresh air.

"Hoo ......"

The sound of water in my ears continued, and when I looked up, it turned out to be a waterhole under a waterfall, and the surroundings were extremely secluded and desolate, with no people within a radius of several hundred meters, only large areas of weeds and woods.

It was night, and a bright moon hung in the sky, sprinkling a faint moonlight.

At this time, Roger and Zoltan also came out of the water.

"Moradin is on top, we're finally out!" Zoltan shouted happily, and Roger smiled.

The three of them climbed onto the water's edge and completely relaxed.

Wren got up and looked into the distance, and soon recognized that this was outside the city north of Longshand, that is, the lower reaches of the Fregeren River, on a low ground, on a small tributary, and the water would flow a few hundred meters further down into the Fregeren River.

He secretly remembered the location of this waterhole, and if he wanted Thor's hammer, he would definitely come back in the future.

The three of them didn't stay long, disposed of the water on their bodies a little, and walked down the tributary.

Wren found a path, and after walking for a short time, he came to a wilderness from which he could see Lonshande on the horizon in the distance.

At night, the eyes of the dragon are very dazzling, and the light is lit up from time to time.

Wren's soul eye measured the distance, which was more than seven thousand meters away from Longshande, and even if he was so far away, he could still faintly hear the sound of explosions coming from the city, as well as the exclamations of many people, as if the whole city was in chaos.

The three of them looked at each other and hurriedly hurried to the city.

But just halfway through, there was a sudden violent roar, and the flames soared into the sky, as if a big explosion had occurred.

Far away, Wren still sensed a huge wave of magic, and then, the chaos in the city gradually subsided, and finally quieted down.

Roger slowed down and said with a smile, "Duke Silverstar should have dealt with the enemy." ”

Wren nodded, "Shadow Blade can play some shady tricks in the dark, but once exposed, they will still be unable to escape death in the face of the Holy Soul Wizard." ”

"In that case, let's go slowly. Zoltan gasped, he swam a long way through the water with a large metal box on his back, and halfway through the run, his strength was almost overwhelmed.

At this moment, the microphone in his arms vibrate.

Wren took it out and answered, it was Viola who sent a question: "Wren, where are you?"

"We're out, on the outskirts of the north of the city. ”

As soon as Wren sent the words back, a streamer flew from the direction of Longshande, extremely fast, like a huge silver flame, with a tail flame more than ten meters long, like a comet cutting through the sky, and in less than half a minute, it flew above his head.

In the midst of the flames, there was a vague figure.

Wren's eyelids jumped wildly, this silver fire contained an extremely terrifying aura, and it felt a little familiar, reminding him of the statue of the goddess of magic in front of the Silver Star Pavilion.

"Holy Soul Wizard!" Wren hurriedly closed his soul eye so as not to see something he shouldn't see.

"The Duke of Silver Star is here......" Zoltan exclaimed.

Roger looked at the figure in the sky, his face a little puzzled. The silver flames swirled in the air and landed with a thud, the flames dissipating, revealing the true face of the Holy Soul Wizard.

When the three of them saw the appearance of the comer, they were all stunned.

"De Lersa......
