Chapter 94: Murder and Arson

Reaching the corresponding level of strength does not mean that you will be able to obtain the corresponding equipment, after all, the manufacture of these powerful alchemy equipment all needs to be completed by an alchemist. And alchemists are much rarer and more precious than magicians.

First of all, every magician wants to improve his own strength as much as possible, so he does not want to waste his cultivation time on alchemy from the bottom of his heart, and secondly, even if he is really interested in alchemy, but this science born of magic, the degree of esoteria is far greater than the cultivation of magic, and it also requires extremely high talent, especially the comprehension of the essence of magic circles and magic elements.

Therefore, the number of alchemists is extremely small, and correspondingly, the number of alchemy equipment is also not large, and many people will snicker even if they can get magic equipment one level lower than their own level.

As a recognized genius of magic, the staff in Monto's hand was also a lot of hard work, through the relationship of his teacher, he had to get it with great effort, and it was not for a long time, and it was just a staff that barely entered the stream, not even a staff of quicksand.

And during this time, he had already reached the level of a ninth-order quicksand mage, and he would soon be promoted to a solid rock mage. Knowing that alchemy equipment is not easy to obtain, Montto feels extremely satisfied even if he can get a quicksand staff.

Solid rock-level alchemy equipment, he didn't dare to hope for it at all.

And now in his hand, it was a solid rock staff!

His hands trembled slightly, and Monto gently stroked the quicksand staff in his hand, his eyes shining with excitement, as if caressing the skin of his lover. The fire crystal the size of a pigeon's egg at the top of the staff alone mesmerized him.

Then he saluted again and said excitedly, "Thank you for your generous gift!"

Seeing Monto's almost ecstatic appearance, Li Yunfei pursed his lips and said in his heart, Look at your appearance that you have never seen the world! If you take this product to the underground secret room to take a look, I don't know if he will faint on the spot.

said indifferently at the moment: "Okay, it's just a solid rock staff, since it's my subordinate, naturally it can't be too shabby." Let's go. ”

With that, he jumped out of the study and blended into the night.

Without the slightest hesitation, Montto immediately jumped out as well, following closely behind Li Yunfei, the word loyalty almost written on his face.

"Silence. Two war horses wrapped in horses' hooves rushed out of Rollin Castle, and Li Yunfei released a mute auxiliary magic, and there was no life within three or four meters around the two of them.

Although the night outside was out of sight, Li Yunfei and Meng Tuo were both quicksand mages, and when their spiritual power was released, everything around them immediately formed an image in their minds, which was not much worse than the day.

Along the way, Li Yunfei did not speak, and Monto was equally silent.

Although Li Yunfei didn't tell him who he was going to kill, Meng Tuo also vaguely guessed something.

After the two of them left the city gate of Red River Town, they immediately turned their horses' heads and headed southeast of Rollin's territory.

The black-clothed black horse, like two silent ghosts, went all the way away.

Half an hour later, the two had crossed the border of Rollin's territory and entered the territory of another noble.

County of Carden!

......

Inside the castle of the Earl of Carden, it was a bright light and laughter. In the hall of the castle, more than a dozen scantily clad girls were twisting their soft waists and dancing bewitchingly. These young girls, who had been trained in captivity by Earl Carden, were full of charm between their eyebrows and eyes, and they were constantly secretly sending autumn waves to a few people on the side of the chairman.

In front of the tables next to them, there were several men sitting with wine glasses, looking at the girl in front of them with a satisfied smile.

In particular, an old man wearing a gray Jianyan mage robe, his eyes were full of smiles at this time, staring at a dancer in the middle, as if he couldn't wait to press this dancer under him.

"These maids in the hands of the Earl are simply stunners, and I don't know where they came from?" the mage asked one of the people sitting next to him on the main seat.

The man on the main seat is none other than Earl Carden!

Hearing the other party's question, Carden smiled slightly and said, "It's just a maid, if Master Byron likes it, she is yours." Naturally, he wouldn't tell the other party that these maids were all taken by him from his territory and slowly cultivated as a **** since childhood.

The Byron mage was waiting for this, and immediately smiled happily, and said, "The Earl is too polite, and since this is the case, the old man is disrespectful." ”

Carden laughed and said: "Master Byron, everyone here can enjoy the light to come to my small earl's house, Carden is already full of flowers, which maid do you like tonight, even if you take it away, you will not return if you are not drunk, and you will not return happy." ”

The guests were immediately overjoyed, nodded their heads in thanks, and began to look for their targets among the dancers.

Seeing this scene, Carden smiled slightly, drank all the wine in the cup, and looked around at the people around him, but the depths of his eyes were tinged with a hint of melancholy.

Ever since he learned that the Count of Rollin had not died, and had returned from the wilderness, he had been feeling a little uneasy.

The reason why this happened was not because he was afraid of Count Rollin, but because he was afraid that his collusion with the Archbishop of Cusa in the Central Temple would be revealed, which would arouse the anger of Archduke Roland.

In the minds of these nobles in Roland City, the name of iron-blooded Roland is not called in vain.

It's just that when Carden learned that the subordinates he sent to Rollin's territory were all regarded as bandits pretending to be Templar knights, and their heads were cut off and hung at the gate of Red River Town, and the news that the Knights of Divine Grace in the Central Temple had "disappeared" after entering Rollin's territory, the uneasiness in his heart immediately magnified.

This Saul Rollin is definitely not as simple as it seems! Thinking of his son Ted, who had disappeared in the wilderness, Carden suddenly had a feeling of extreme danger. Although he didn't know where this sense of danger came from, and thought that Thor Rollin would not dare to attack and kill a noble count anyway, he strengthened the guards of Carden Castle and invited several strong men who were friendly with him, all of whom were high-ranking members of the Thorn Mercenary Regiment.

Among these powerhouses, there are magicians and swordsmen, and they are basically at the rock level. Although they are not nobles, their strength is undoubted. What's more, there is also a bronze swordsman inside.

A solid rock mage, a bronze swordsman, plus four or five solid rock swordsmen and seven or eight quicksand swordsmen, this lineup, anyone who wants to make a move must be weighed first.

Thinking of this, he turned to the bronze swordsman and said, "Master Muller, come, I would like to toast you, today I can invite you, the head of the regiment and the thorn mercenary group, to enjoy the light, my Kaden territory is simply full of splendor." ”

When Muller heard that Carden actually called him "Master", he immediately laughed and said, "It's easy to say, it's easy to say, this castle is really comfortable, and I can enjoy it so much." "He is not a nobleman himself, but a mercenary, although his eyes are above the top on weekdays, he is very envious of the status of the nobleman, and when he heard Carden praise him, he immediately felt a little fluttering.

Carden smiled and said, "Where, where." But in my heart I despised this Muller. Others don't know, but he knows that this Mueller is a mercenary on the surface, but he often does some robber work behind the scenes.

His Thorn Mercenary Regiment, ostensibly a mercenary group, is actually a group of thieves, specializing in looting small caravans that travel between various giant cities, and then planting them on giants.

Even, Carden helped him sell a lot of stolen things......

However, although Carden has the arrogance of the nobility in his heart, now is the time to ask someone to do something, and he has to compromise and ask for everything.

"Stand down. Carden clapped his hands, and the dancing girls immediately withdrew from the castle. After a pause, Carden saw that several people around him didn't notice him, and then whispered in Mueller's ear: "Master Mueller, I have an enemy, but I can't take revenge, I don't know if Master Mueller is willing to help me with this?"

Muller laughed, and said in the same voice that only Carden could hear: "Lord Earl, if I am not mistaken, this enemy of yours should be a nobleman, right? But no problem, I, Muller, am the most righteous in my life, and your enemy is my enemy, as long as it is within my ability, I will definitely help." But ......"

As soon as the conversation changed, he continued: "You know, I am a mercenary, and I have a group of brothers under me, and I need money for food, clothing, and housing, and my business has not been very good recently, but I can't turn around ......."

What kind of mercenary group, obviously it is a group of thieves! Carden scolded in his heart, but said in his mouth: "This is no problem, the brothers' expenses are all covered by me, and I will give Mr. Muller 100,000 gold coins later to comfort the suffering of the saddle horse." ”

Mueller took a sip of wine, played with the wine glass in his hand, and said with a confused look: "No way, I have too many brothers, 100,000 gold coins, some are not enough......"

Hearing that the other party was so greedy, Carden's heart was on fire, but he had to forcibly suppress it, and said with a smile: "Such words...... 150,000 gold coins?"

"Not enough wine, not enough to drink......" said Müller, as if he hadn't heard, staring at the glass.

Carden gritted his teeth and said, "Two hundred thousand gold coins, no more, this is already half of my family property......"

"Hahaha, deal. Mueller turned his head and smiled slightly, poured a full wine for Carden, the two of them clinked glasses, and said in a deep voice, "Take people's money and eliminate disasters for others, and the Earl will tell me, which blind fellow has offended the noble Earl Carden?"

"Yes......" Carden was about to say that name when Mueller suddenly reached out in front of him.

"Silence!" Müller snorted, and in the castle hall, many of his men, including Mage Byron, stopped frolicking and looked at Müller intently.

Carden was a little confused for a while, and said in surprise: "Commander Mueller, this is ......"

Mueller stared at the gate of the castle and said coldly: "I sent a few secret sentries to guard outside the castle before, and they were contacted by insects every five minutes, and now the insects have not sounded for six minutes. ”

Only then did Carden know that the leader of the bandit had already sent out a secret sentinel. While he was secretly wary of this muller in his heart, he pondered and said, "Could it be that the sentry has been delayed by other things?"

"Impossible, the four secret sentinels, all of them are the strength of quicksand swordsmen, how can they all not move......" Muller said as he stared at the castle gate.

As soon as he finished speaking, the heavy castle gate exploded in an instant, but no sound came out, like a silent movie, two solid wood gates flew in with a huge amount of broken wood shard, and at the same time, there were four figures who did not know whether they were alive or dead, rolling down on the floor of the hall.

"It's silence!" said the Byron mage's pupils.

When the smoke and dust cleared, two figures appeared, one of them was dressed in black and wearing a black hood and his face could not be seen clearly, and the other was only dressed in black, showing the immature face of a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy.

"Yo, there's a lot of people. The young man smiled, pointed to the four people lying on the ground and asked, "Does anyone want these four insects?"
