In Sun City, near the alchemy factory in the North District, most of the people have slept. A while ago, I worked overtime and did too much work, and the lord of the city finally let everyone rest.

A sneaky shadow approached the door of the alchemy lab, put his hand on the magic lock, and quietly sensed.

"Who is it!" a sleepy-eyed guard shouted out of the hallway.

Behind him, suddenly a hand reached out and covered his mouth hard.

"Don't move, or you'll die. The man whispered.

The guard nodded, and the man let go of his hand and said, "This magic lock is newly installed?"

The guard continued to nod, and the man said, "Tell me how to open it, you must know, right? I see your identity mark, you've been here for at least a year." ”

In the guard's eyes, the expression turned cold, and he suddenly stiffened a carp, broke free of the man, and shouted: "Someone, someone has broken in!"

The man was furious, and with a poke of his finger, he stabbed the guard in the back and through the spine, and the guard did not wear armor today, and this vulnerable part was pierced, and he was paralyzed on the spot.

The person trying to open the magic lock shook his head, turned around and said, "I can't open it, it's weird." ”

The person who injured the guard bent down and said coldly: "The voices here are all blocked by me, do you think you can call someone over?"

The guards stared at him with a mask on his face and no expression in sight.

"Say it, I'll let you live, otherwise ......"

Bah!

The guard spat out a mouthful of phlegm and spat it on the man's face, who also felt disgusted through the mask.

"Let me live? I tell you, if you kill me today, your whole family will die tomorrow. My life belongs to the Duke, and you can't take what he gave me. ”

"Really?" a green flame flew from the man's palm and slammed it on the guard's forehead.

The guard's forehead exploded with a thud. The man was overwhelmed and didn't know what had happened to his spell. He didn't see that the guard's soul did not crumble, but followed the blood light into the insignia he wore on the inside of his chest.

"Mission failed, let's go. The locksmith gritted his teeth.

This guard is missing, and with the speed of the duke's reaction, it will soon be discovered, reported, and then immediately sent someone to investigate. The surveillance device here was destroyed, and it must have been the first person to come over.

It's a pity that after a few months of lurking, the alchemy laboratory that was finally approached wanted to get some secret recipes for the drawings of the Duke's Mansion or something, but the people here are so strict-mouthed, and even the outermost alchemy laboratory is very thoroughly defended.

The murderer was so angry that he stepped on the chest of the dead guard, and pressed down in anger, shattering the guard's sternum.

"Kill my whole family? Lao Tzu will leave, you idiot, don't you die in vain! Your duke is so powerful, he can't find me!"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" said the lockpicker coldly.

The man then retracted his feet, snorted stupidly, turned and left the hallway, and disappeared into the alchemy factory in the night.

Because of the temporary holiday, after dawn, the people who came to the alchemy laboratory found the corpses of the guards, which was not light.

The dukedom had never had such a thing, and the city defense army immediately sent an epic mage to cordon off the scene. Soon, Shrek also arrived in person.

"Light and shadow backtracking!"

Shrek recited the incantation and solemnly unleashed a spell, in fact, because he wasn't very skilled himself. But what Xia He gave him, he had to learn.

The magic was released, and phantoms appeared in the corridor, recalling what had happened before, step by step.

The power of the legendary mage was so strong that it wasn't until the thief appeared that Shrek stopped, his face grim.

Someone actually made up their mind to go to Sun City?

Stealing technology is not common in the empire, and the most hateful thing is that it kills people. There was no sound in the light and shadow backtracking, but looking at the guard's mouth, Shrek knew what he said.

"Go check, it was the inner ghost who did it, and he may have escaped from Sun City now, but it doesn't matter, he escaped to the edge of the sky, and I will catch him back." Ma De said that he would kill his whole family, and I took care of this matter. Shrek said viciously.

No one around dared to speak, and it was indeed not difficult to find out, because there were indeed two mages who escaped overnight.

On the other side of the harbor, a small boat was lost.

"The city defense army is really lax. Shrek said this coldly and returned to the Duke's Palace.

On the side of the city defense army, it was already in chaos, and after the construction of Sun City, there was a bloody case for the first time, and people fled overnight.

When Shrek said this, many people had cold necks.

Responsibility cannot be shirked, and can only be punished according to the system, and the most terrible thing is to deduct meritorious service first.

Soon, the origin of the two magicians was found out, and they threw themselves into Sun City, giving them fake resumes, and their real identities were family mages of a nobleman in the middle of the empire.

That nobleman, now in refuge with the Merriphon family.

Shrek is even more angry, can he join the alchemy factory in Sun City with a forged identity?

Fortunately, these two guys didn't know the details of Sun City, so they didn't pay attention to it, and they left some hair and cut nails, and they were analyzed by the people in the alchemy laboratory, and compared Xia He's database, they found the real murderer.

Two great magicians in their twenties, Pierre and Trian.

Born from the Sith family, they are even collateral blood relatives of the Sith family. The Sith family is a first-class earl title, and Shrek does not feel that an earl is provoking the majesty of the duke.

This matter may not be as simple as thought.

However, having promised the poor guard, he had to do it himself.

After thinking about it, Shrek felt that he couldn't accomplish this with his own people, so he had to come to Golia.

Goliath doesn't live in King Kong now, but is still in her own magic tower, and Shrek comes over, and Gloria asks, "Shrek, do you want to avenge that guard?"

"It's just one thing, mainly, that someone is challenging the majesty of the teacher, and I can't tolerate it. ”

"And me, you have to be honest, or I won't help you. ”

Golia's age is not young, but she is not a little girl who is easy to coax, she said so bluntly, Shrek's face turned red, and he said: "The teacher once drove the army of the Merrich family out of Red Sea City and sent it back to the empire directly. The Merifin family has not reacted to this matter, it is very abnormal, they are also dukes. ”

"Do you think that the Sith family was instructed by the Merriffin family to test us?"

"Even if not, it is now. The Merry family will definitely support the Sith family. ”

Gloria nodded, Shrek was young and could see things quite thoroughly. The revenge of Red Sea City, the Merriffin family will definitely take revenge.

The location of the Sith family is relatively close to the mainland, and it is impossible to send a large army to find trouble on the side of Rhode Island.

If they do that, the Merreven family will always find a name to protect the Sith family.

Now that everyone is at war with the demons, if the Duke of Asra provokes a conflict, it will always attract criticism. Besides, most of the legends in Rhode Island have been transferred away now, and the other party is also testing the details.

"What help do you want?"

"Convince Smith to come with me to the Sith family. ”

"Why don't you go by yourself?"

Smith...... He doesn't like me, I don't have anything to say to him. ”

"If you do things together, it will be very troublesome. ”

"It's all for the teacher, not for myself. Shrek said calmly.

"Then I'll go and talk to him, if he is willing to go, if he doesn't, I can't do anything. You know, he's not on my command. ”

"I know, I'm going to trouble you about this matter. ”

"Yes, it's all for the duke. Golia said politely.

Before Shrek could return to the Duke's Palace, he received news that Smith had asked him to go to the port and meet him on the ship.

Shrek was overjoyed, Smith's power, he vaguely knew, and every time he saw it from afar, he felt a sense of danger in his heart. In the face of most legends, he did not have such an induction.

Besides, Smith is a student that the teacher values more, and the equipment on his body must be very powerful.

On the battleship, Smith was checking and studying in the bilge, and when Shrek arrived, he stopped what he was doing.

"Smith, you're working on a battleship?" Shrek looked curious.

Smith's face was full of disgust, and he said: "No, I'm watching, how can I find the most vulnerable part from the bottom of the ship and sink it directly, you can get down to business." ”

"I'd like to ask you to join me on a trip to the Sith family. ”

"What are you going to do?"

"The two mages who committed the crime, captured them alive, refined their souls, paid tribute to the dead guards, and then made the matter public, reported it to the House of Commons, and demanded compensation from the Sith family. ”

"Catch it, although the Sith family is an earl, there is also a legend. ”

"That's why I'm inviting you over. ”

"You're so direct......"

"The truth of the matter is that it is, if I change it to another way, you will dislike me even more. ”

"I heard, you're going to kill those two mage families?"

A hint of gloom flashed in Shrek's eyes. Said: "Although it hurts the innocent, but this is my style of doing things, and it has nothing to do with the teacher." ”

"These two mages are also collateral blood relatives of the Sith family. ”

"If the Sith won't hand them over, let's die together. Shrek said.

"I don't like to kill innocents. Smith said.

Shrek looked at him, waiting for his final answer. Smith tapped the plank on the bottom of the ship with his toes, and said: "This is it, it is a weak point, if a legend attacks with special spells, it will affect the stability of the keel, and after the formation is broken, other attacks will be too easy to destroy the battleship." ”

"Hmm. ”

"Did you know that this huge battleship has good defenses, and even a legend can't sink it in one fell swoop. But the existence of this weakness gives the legend a chance. The dukedom is also a huge warship. I don't like to kill innocents, but there are always people who think it's not a big deal to test the dukedom. But after a long time of testing, you will find loopholes. ”

Shrek was overjoyed, knowing that Smith had agreed.

"I don't like someone to test the loopholes of the dukedom, such a person, even if the whole family dies, lest someone follow in the future and always fail to remember the lesson. ”
