Chapter 10: The Palace

Xiao Liu stood at the foot of the main hall and waited for a long time, before a few people came out of it. This incident can be said to be quite vicious, and no one expected such a terrifying incident to occur at such a banquet. Xiao Liu, as a nationally recognized researcher of magic theory, protected the princess and her two children at a critical moment, which can be regarded as a great contribution, so he was excluded from the list of people who carried the blame.

Yes, this meeting is not about deciding how to find the murderer or how to solve the problem, but to find a way to give an account to the people. In the center of the central city, the royal area, which should have been heavily guarded, was attacked like this, and it can be said that the impact was quite bad, and it was for this reason that at this moment, it was necessary to select an "inner ghost" who should be in harmony with the outside to deal with it.

Xiao Liu listened to the results of their narration, and finally breathed a sigh of relief. Whether it was him, the princess or the two children, they didn't tell Ke Zhou, once Ke Zhou was exposed, this matter would be really difficult to do. After all, it is a good thing for such an unidentified person to be used as a scapegoat, especially since he also has the ability to be immune to curses, and once exposed, it is estimated that he will be arrested and experimented to study the causes and methods of immunity to curses.

The end result was that a supervisor had suffered. Xiao Liu didn't listen specifically, he has always been very disgusted with this kind of thing, especially this kind of casual knife, what kind of ministers should be. As long as they had the slightest sense of precaution, such a bad thing should not have happened.

But what is there to say now? Xiao Liu waved his hand and jumped onto the giant eagle. The giant eagle held its head high, the person who had exerted the coercion before looked dead at this time, and now in this large square, there was no longer that feeling of being watched. As a result, the mounts are now extremely active, shouting at each other, or arguing, and there is no unified way to manage them.

"It's just a superficial thing. ”

The giant eagle took off and headed towards another area of the palace. After all, although the matter of the attack was barely "resolved", he had more important things to report: it was already a time when the beast tide might occur recently, and although the country already had some sense of chaos, it should still be prevented.

The regent often attends business in another hall, but few people visit it compared to other places. One is that the regent's temper is really bad, although he is nominally dealing with government affairs, but in fact he is in love with the concubine, which may be some strange fetish, so no one wants to report anything to him. The second is that although he is said to be the regent, in fact, he has been stripped of some power, and if he wants to say anything, he is now just a minister.

But even so, his orders were useful to others, at least when the regent had to do almost anything. And it is precisely because of this that Xiao Liu wants to propose to the regent about organizing the protection of the city prone to animal tides, and organizing the evacuation of residents.

But soon, the guards came out and brought back not very good news

"The king said, "No one is seen now." ”

After Xiao Liu heard this, he sighed and was about to speak, but was immediately stopped again.

The king said, "Submit it in writing, and we'll talk about it later." ”

It is estimated that when the regent heard that Xiao Liu was coming, he already realized that it was difficult to persuade Xiao Liu to leave. Maybe he was doing something unseemly to make the guards say that. Xiao Liu seemed to have expected this result, so he had to straighten out his clothes, recall the giant eagle, and then began to constantly recite some words that people didn't understand.

The black particles gathered around Xiao Liu, quickly enveloping Xiao Liu completely, and the next moment they disappeared in place with Xiao Liu. The next moment, Xiao Liu had already appeared in the teleportation array in his room. Although this kind of instant teleportation does not require the support of the magic array, it is quite mana-intensive, and it is also because of the extremely bad mood that such a method of returning home will be chosen.

Pushing open the door and walking towards the kitchen, I was thinking about whether to summon a creature that could cook to cook for him, but I suddenly saw that the kitchen knife that was originally a dead thing was actually cutting vegetables by itself, and then, the knife suddenly stopped, and the whole board was lifted, and the dish was perfectly thrown into the pot next to it.

The pot suddenly lit up, and the hot stones began to heat, and at the same time, the pot and the woks began to move on their own, constantly stirring the food.

"Huh?"

Xiao Liu looked at all this suspiciously, although he was a little surprised, but more curious. There aren't many creatures left in the house, so nothing should be able to do that, or is it that the spirit bird "White Feather" ran out of the library, but it probably won't be idle to cook. Or is it the guardian beast of the house, the "mountain ghost"? But it is not a living organism, and it is impossible to eat.

Just as Xiao Liu was thinking, a figure suddenly got up from the kitchen floor, wiping the sweat from his forehead while looking at the stir-fry spoon and pot that were frying rice by himself.

"Beef pies, pots and frying spoons are also ready!" Ke Zhou said as he gestured to the table. At the same time, a bird with snow-white feathers flew under the table. It seemed to be very excited, and it actually circled around Ke Zhou on the spot.

"Ke Zhou, Bai Yu, what are you doing?"

Xiao Liu looked at the incomprehensible things in front of him, and he didn't know what to say for a moment. As a small guardian beast in the library, Bai Yu almost never came out, and Ke Zhou had no ability to use magic and a theoretical foundation in magic, let alone do anything. But these two creatures are now letting the kitchen tools move on their own, while chatting about the improvement of the formation.

Ke Zhou and the white spirit bird were asked like this, only to find that Xiao Liu had already returned to the house. They looked at each other, and then, Bai Yu explained.

"This guy just went crazy and said that he had designed a few formations, let me try to work it. At first, I wasn't interested, but seeing him like that, I tried it anyway, and it became what it is now. Bai Yu said this and pointed to the ground.

Looking in the direction of Bai Yu's finger, there was indeed a small circular formation on the ground, which seemed to be a very simple formation drawn with his own quill. And this formation is still slightly shining, and it is obvious that Bai Yu is still supplying it with magic.

"This ......"

Xiao Liu was a little speechless, controlling the knife to cut vegetables, or controlling the board and the iron pot, in fact, it was a very normal thing. Mages can rely on mage hands or other similar magic to do this, but I've never heard of a circle that can make these actions functional.

"Where did you see the magic circle?" Xiao Liu's first reaction was that Ke Zhou had seen some special magic circles and experimented with them, and even automatically ignored what Bai Yu said just now.

"I drew it myself. Ke Zhou said, almost in the same place began to paint again, he painted very roughly, but there are clear eyes, one by one, there seems to be some kind of marking line, all kinds of horizontal and vertical bars interlaced with each other, it looks very strange.

When he stopped writing, Bai Yu couldn't wait to inject magic. The circle became shining in an instant, and almost at the same time, the ground in front of the circle suddenly lifted up, and a few words were clearly engraved on it:

"Welcome back"
