258 Undercurrents

The sixth-order natural magic "Land Dragon Scroll" is not a deadly spell, but it is a functional spell with a wide range of influence, and if it were not for Charlie's exquisite control, it would be a mess within a radius of fifty yards.

The crowd was stunned, and the iron pipe in the mouth of a gentleman fell to the ground with a clatter.

At this moment, two samurai in silver armor cut through the crowd, a fierce murderous aura that was terrifying, and the scimitar with the enchanted effect was a real killing weapon, shining under the bright magic lamps of the Corniche.

One of the knights was dignified and said loudly: "Sir, in view of the fact that you have made trouble in public, injured innocent citizens, destroyed other people's property, and violated Articles 13 and 16 of the Public Security Code of Haynes City, we will arrest you in accordance with the law, please cooperate!"

"When did the Silver Knights start meddling in policing matters?" Charlie glanced around and saw several vigilantes in the crowd, and for some reason, they were standing outside the circle watching the show.

"In Haynes City, under special circumstances, the Silver Knights can intervene in events of any nature, which is a privilege granted to us by Archduke Thomas himself!Do you have any questions?!"

"Privilege!he~~ You also know that this is a privilege, so you shouldn't abuse it!" Charlie stared at him coldly and asked, "Why didn't you show up when he provoked me?

One sentence aroused the onlookers' hatred of the enemy.

The knight sneered, "Haynes, Young Master Charlie shouldn't be an ordinary person without power, right?"

Hearing this name, as if they had encountered a plague, the crowd invariably retreated, with Charlie as the center, giving way to a blank area within a radius of twenty yards, and everyone remained indifferent and guarded, and the little sympathy that had just been shown disappeared without a trace, and people whispered.

"What's going on??The Pavel family is fighting with their own people?!"

"You don't know this, right! Since the Grand Duke deposed Young Master Charlie, his status has plummeted, and even his relatives will feel disgusted by people like him!"

"It is estimated that because of the departure of the Grand Duke, the current family owner has begun to clean up this bad boy!"

"Good news! It's better to fight, it's not a good guy anyway!"

It seems that this is not a chance incident, but a premeditated event, and it also exposes the unfavorable news: Bled has corrupted the Silver Knights, and more and more Silver Knights will join Brad's command as time goes on.

"Since you don't think I'm a powerless person, get out of the way!"

The knight sneered, "That was before, now I advise you to recognize the reality and go to the Public Security Bureau with me!

If you go with him, the end may not be as simple as he said.

Charlie pointed to the badge on his chest and said solemnly, "I feel sorry for you two for you to make this silver badge dusty! If I have the chance, I will take them off with my own hands, because you don't deserve it!"

The two silver knights were annoyed and yelled, "It's not your turn to teach us a lesson! One last warning, untie your weapons immediately, or I will make you taste regret!"

"Come then!" beckoned Charlie to them.

Just as the two silver knights were about to make a move, a burly man squeezed in from outside and shouted, "Stop!"

He is a middle-aged man, with long shawl hair and a neatly trimmed beard, full of wild taste, wearing a decent tuxedo, a pair of delicate leather boots, and elegantly embracing savagery, two diametrically opposed styles are naturally presented in him, and he is particularly charming, he is the Marquis of Gosta.

"What's wrong?" Gosta frowned slightly.

One of the knights made a brief debriefing and said that they had to take Charlie with him today.

Gosta scolded in a low voice, "This is a law and order dispute, what are you involved in?Is the privilege of the Silver Knights used by you to use it like this?!"

The knight said without humility or arrogance: "Since we have seen it, and the patrol has not been dispatched, of course we should come forward, this is for the sake of justice! Besides, Lord Marquis is in charge of logistics, it is better not to meddle in daily affairs!"

Something is wrong!

"Okay! good for justice!" Gosta laughed angrily and said loudly: "Even I can't command you anymore, call your immediate superior, let me see how many hairs he has grown, and put it on a score in front of Lao Tzu!

A thunderous roar shook the two of them involuntarily, knowing that Costa was really angry, and if he hit him again, I was afraid he would have to make a move.

When the two were in a dilemma, another middle-aged man broke through the crowd and walked inside.

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Don't be excited, deputy commander! These two recruits don't know the rules very well, and they make you angry, so I apologize to you on behalf of the two of them." ”

Gosta said in a solemn voice: "Sergeant Garton, it turns out that they are your soldiers? How did they teach them?

"From the perspective of fairness and justice, I admire these two little ghosts, they have the spirit of not being afraid of power, and from the perspective of soldiers, the two of them are indeed unqualified!" said that, Garton turned his head and scolded the two silver knights, "I really don't know how to be flexible, stupid to death, don't let me get down!"

And this time, the two silver knights retreated respectfully.

This is clearly showing off, Charlie tasted it, and it seems that Brad's corruption of the Silver Knight is far more serious than he thought.

Gosta said three good words in succession, and he gave Garden a deep look, "You're very good, I remember you, Sergeant Garden!"

Gosta made a point of emphasizing his rank.

Garton pursed his lips and said with a smile: "I won't be a non-commissioned officer soon! Lord Brad plans to form a new knight order, the Dark-Edge Knights, and invite me to be the deputy head of the knights, responsible for the training of knight recruits. ”

Gosta squeezed out a smile, "It turned out to be a high promotion, so congratulations!"

Garden smiled, "Thank you, please have a drink then!"

While Costa and Garden were chatting, on the outskirts of the circle, in a luxurious carriage half-draped with curtains, several shrewd and gloomy men sat around a table, one of whom was a handsome young man who grabbed everyone's attention and seemed to be the center of the small table.

If Charlie sees him, he will recognize him as Charlie's cousin Steven, the sixth-ranked young talent who is currently in line with the throne, and he is the first guest of the family to visit him after Charlie returns to Fort William.

Steven looked at Charlie in the distance and said, "Lord Costa has come forward, and this temptation is almost over here." ”

A chubby middle-aged man on the far left said, "I can't figure out why Costa would stand up for him? ”

Steven glanced at him and said, "That's because you are lonely, Costa is Thomas's classmate, he trusts him very much, and it is understandable to entrust Charlie to him before leaving, don't look at this guy who looks reckless, he is actually a difficult character, his IQ is not low, and he is also very alert." ”

"Do you want to?" a short, thin, black-faced man gestured to seal his throat.

"Gosta could indeed be a big obstacle against Charlie, but it's not that time, and Brad's side isn't ready. ”

A shrewd and capable old man said, "We help Brad so much, I don't know if it's good or bad?"

Steven hurriedly stopped, "There is no need to mention this kind of thing, it is meaningless, you just need to know that now he needs us, and we also need his power, so that's it." ”

As he spoke, Steven paused, his face gloomy, "It's only been a year, and Charlie's changes are unbelievable! Not only is his martial arts extraordinary, he can tie with Bedwell, but the magic he showed just now is also first-class, could it be that the Earth Thunder bloodline really has such incredible potential?!"

The old man corrected: "The Earth Thunder Bloodline is not such a performance, he does not control the power of the Thunder, and I don't see that he has the talent of the earth system, I guess he may have activated the hidden bloodline from the Williamson family, which is a very historical and heritage family, but unfortunately we have too little information." ”

The black-faced man sneered: "No matter how much potential he has, he is only one person, and he has not yet reached the level of an archmage, if we send our best killer, I am confident that he will not see the sun tomorrow!"

Steven shook his head, "Don't worry, some actions will only be beneficial after we are fully prepared, and if we make a rash move now, we will only cheapen Brad in vain." ”

"But we don't necessarily have that much time, Charlie's growth rate is terrifying, who knows what he will become after graduating from the Olympiad Ring?"

Steven thought for a moment and muttered, "Uncle Brad is racing against time to form the Knights of the Gloom Peak, the purpose is to prepare for his own name by force, he is constantly weakening the power of the Silver Knights, and he needs time.

In addition, in order to find some clues about the accident that year, Thomas went to find Okaz Island, and it was basically determined that he would not come back.

As for Charlie, he's still young, not to the point where he gives us a headache.

Looking at it this way, time is actually on our side. ”

The old man said in a deep voice: "Speed up! Whoever runs the fastest now may get the most." ”

Steven nodded and said, "Yes, there is one thing that needs a little attention, Charlie's teacher, Archmage Ron, has been acting a little abnormally recently, and it feels like he is planning something, we had better investigate this matter clearly, my intuition tells me that there may be some secrets hidden here." ”
