At least half an hour after the black shadow left, an afterimage swept from the other end of the corridor, and the faint black light it carried fluctuated like a wave of water, and the calm and deep contained the smell of violence and destruction.

The afterimage stopped in front of the barbed wire, and looked around with a solemn expression.

It was a man in his thirties in a black shirt, black dress, black trousers, black leather shoes, and a black bow tie, with a neatly trimmed beard and black hair all combed back and smooth - a new trend that Aalto's upper nobles had just learned from other kingdoms.

At first glance, this man is a person who pays attention to dressing up and status.

It's a pity that he is not a nobleman.

He's Lonzan Aaron,

In Aaron's gang, as long as you are in constant contact with Lonsan? Aaron's leaders know that beneath the elegant surface of Aaron's efforts to chase aristocratic demeanor, there has always been an unexplained anger burning in his heart, exuding endless viciousness, resentment and anger, which makes people deeply feared.

Ronsang Aaron, in fact, is a knight who has stimulated the power of the bloodline, and is even about to break through some of the limitations of the mortal body and become a great knight, but the tragedy is that the bloodline power he stimulates is dark in nature, so not only can he not become a true nobleman, get a given manor, enjoy a noble and beautiful life, and leave the title of lord for future generations, but also have to hide from the church, like a mouse shuttling through the sewers, not daring to run in the sun.

Because the ancient magic empire ruled the sky, the earth, and the sea, and conquered many different dimensions, knights, priests and other professions that mastered extraordinary power at that time could not help but refer to magicians in the division of strength.

The three-ring spell "Flying Technique", the six-ring spell "Spell Trigger", and the incomparably powerful nine-ring magic have caused the magician's essential strength to leap, plus just at these three levels, the magician's soul and spiritual power will mutate, so that the lifespan will also be increased to a certain extent, therefore, in the ancient magic empire, the first-ring mage, the second-ring mage and the second-ring mage are called the beginner-level magician, the second-ring to the fifth-ring mage are called the middle-level magician, the sixth-ring to the eighth-ring are called the high-level magician, and the ninth ring is called the archmage.

Referring to this division, the knights linked the four ranks of their blood power greatly increased with the four mage levels of three, six, nine, and legend, and then compared and divided the strength to improve the less terrifying level, so they stimulated the blood power and became a knight, the first and second levels are often called knights, the third to fifth levels are the great knights, the sixth to eighth levels are the heavenly knights, the ninth level is the golden knight, and the top is the epic knight.

The same is true for the division of priest ranks, but after becoming intermediate priests, most of them become bishops, so the third to fifth level is also called the bishop level, and the senior priests tend to hold the position of cardinals, as for the ninth level priests, there is no special title, if they can enter the cardinal conference, they will be a cardinal together with those "Holy Spirit priests", if not, they are still cardinals.

The entire Principality of Vaorit, not counting the hidden and secret powerhouses, has more than four hundred knights, only more than fifty great knights, and less than ten heavenly knights.

And most of these knights are members of the Violet Knights, stationed in various key places.

As a second-level knight, as a strong man who is about to break through to the rank of a great knight, how can Longsang Aaron not be angry and resentful of his situation, so he willingly became the black glove of a certain big man, specifically dealing with some shady things for him.

"A faint smell of sulfur, blood, and a few other smells. Aaron's nose moved slightly, and he smelled the residual breath, and he could distinguish the most obvious smell of sulfur and blood from the filthy and foul stench of the sewer mixed with countless smells.

After stimulating the amount of blood vein power, not only do you gain "divine grace", but the ability of all parts of the body is greatly improved without conflicting with the blood power power.

It's a pity that Aaron saw that Jackson and the others hadn't returned for a long time, and only after smelling a trace of the wrong dangerous smell did he go to the sewers to investigate, it was already a long time late, whether it was the corpse, the ice slag caused by the frost rays, or most of the smell, all of them were destroyed by the dark river, the smell of garbage, etc., and he could only find some less important clues, such as the smell of sulfur, the smell of blood, and the traces of blood that had been deliberately cleaned, traces of brain plasma, and a little scorched black mark of corrosion that he found at a glance.

Aaron frowned: "Brain, is it a water ghost? Hmph, will the water ghost know how to deal with traces? acid, sulfur, it seems to be a reckless magic apprentice, unfortunately, I arrived too late, he has been gone for a long time, I am afraid that a lot of the smell has long since dissipated, as long as he is careful, I will not be able to find his traces, and he may have already found a way to warn the church or some nobles." ”

If it was a formal magician, Aaron believed that Jackson and the others plus those ordinary believers of the "Silver White Horn" did not have the strength to leave traces on the other party at all.

Considering that this more than half an hour is enough time for the other party to do a lot of things, and the other party is a magic apprentice who will not be indifferent to what the "Silver Horn" church does, Aaron's idea became simple: "Although you can find the priest of the 'Silver Horn' to cast a spell to track down, but after all, after too long, the probability of success is not high, and most importantly, if he has warned the church, the next period of time will be the key to whether we can escape, is it wasted on tracking him?"

Naturally, there is no difficulty in choosing this kind of thing, and Ronsang Aaron will not risk his own life, and it is not worth the risk.

He turned, kicked his feet in black leather shoes, and the whole person rushed towards somewhere in the sewer like a black afterimage.

............

Lucien lay on the bed, pretending to be asleep, on high alert, listening to whether there was any inexplicable noise in the quiet late night outside, until two or three hours later, when he felt that the cult and the gang would not chase him, he slept in a daze for a while.

Before falling asleep, Lucien had been trying to parse the magic ring, so that even if the enemy found him, he would have some strength to defend it.

The structure inside the magic ring is a three-dimensional model, but there are no complex surfaces, curves, etc., and the construction principles contained in it are also in Lucien's understanding, so Lucian's results in reviewing high school mathematics and physics during this time appeared, and it only took an hour, with the calculations in the soul library, etc., to preliminarily analyze it, and try to engrave the spiritual power imprint in the core of his magic array.

The soul injury made Lucien just spread the recovered spiritual power out of the body, he felt a splitting headache, it was difficult to concentrate, and he almost failed to engrave the seal, fortunately, leaving the spiritual power mark is much easier than casting magic, which was barely completed, but Lucien himself judged: "I'm afraid that within two days, it will become very difficult to cast magic, and soul trauma is really troublesome." ”

After leaving the Psychic Power Seal, the message left by the maker of the seal in the magic ring was obtained by Lucien:

"The 'Ice Avenger' ring, it is a magic apprentice who was betrayed by a friend, and uses all the wealth he has acquired to ask a powerful alchemist to refine a vengeful thing, the icy touch can make people stay awake and cold like most official knights, and the daily two-ring magic 'Palmeira's Ice Blade' can make betrayers feel both the pain of blood and the cold of ice and snow embrace. ”

The alchemist did not leave his name, but only provided the reason for the minting and the ability of the "Ice Avenger" ring.

"Its magic effect should be, raising the will to the level of a first-class knight, and the daily second-ring magic 'Palmeira's Ice Flying Blade', according to the classification of magic items, should belong to the second-level intermediate level. The water ghost will mutate, and it seems that it is mainly the effect of the first magic effect. Lucien keeps the Ice Avenger ring in his pocket, making sure he can touch it at any time.

This is because of Lucian's status and status, he can't afford to wear such a valuable item, which will arouse suspicion, and Lucien is still in a state where his soul is injured and his spiritual power is difficult to spread, so he can only rely on friction to cooperate with the stimulation, and the magic effect of improving the will can only work if it is directly in contact with the skin.

............

In the early morning, Lucien forced himself to wake up with a headache, his head was still a little dizzy, and his forehead was hot, as if he had a fever.

"Soul trauma can also cause weakness and cold. Lucien sighed, cheered up, changed into another linen tunic, and went out of the city without even eating breakfast.

The sun was near the horizon, the sky was still dark, and the cool and fresh air shook Lucian's spirits, and he got rid of his uncomfortable state a little, and after walking for about forty minutes, he finally saw Sir Vane's manor.

Sir Vane was born in the Violet Knights, a second-class knight, and left the Knights due to old age, and was no longer stationed in the fortress near the Dark Mountains, but when the Grand Duke of Vaorit was still the Earl of Violet and the head of the Violet Knights, Sir Vane developed a friendship with him, so he was often recruited into the court, and was regarded as an advisor to the Grand Duke to consult the military situation near the Dark Mountains.

The manor is surrounded by a high wall, and there are facilities such as arrow towers, which can be seen in Sir Vane's iron-blooded style.

Outside, there were many farmers working in the wheat fields, and the gate was open, and two young men in gray knight's uniforms were leading seven or eight soldiers, one with dark yellow hair and eyes, and the other with Aalto's usual brown hair and blue eyes.

"What are you doing at Sir Vane's manor?!" the young man with dark yellow hair asked sternly as he saw Lucien approach.
