Vane sat quietly in a small corner of the ball, observing everything on the field. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"This woman's popularity is really high. Vane savored the taste of the red wine in his hand, and said to himself.

"According to the plan agreed with her, when the ball is in the second half, she will be responsible for dragging old Brightman, and I will take the opportunity to search his bedroom and find the treasure. ”

However, what is the probability of success, Vane himself has no idea.

The dance party was going on in an orderly manner, and suddenly there was a commotion in the crowd.

A group of men and horses dressed in robes with badges tattooed on their chests arrived belatedly.

Vane stood in the distance and caught a glimpse of Vivien in the group. This group of people is none other than the wizard apprentices in the City Lord's Mansion.

It was the first time Vane had seen so many wizard apprentices gathered together, and although wizard apprentices were only the lowest level of the wizarding system, they were no less powerful than a small nobleman in the world.

The Brown family and the Sosis family have a good relationship, so Vivien is not surprised that she can come to Vane, but Vane has been looking carefully for a long time, but he has not seen the man and woman who came from the royal capital.

Vivien also noticed Vane and walked towards him, the little girl was almost fourteen years old now, and her height was just right for Vane's chest.

Vane vaguely remembers that he bullied her and robbed her of candy when she was a child, and the relationship between the brother and sister dropped to a freezing point when she grew up, and later Vivien went to the City Lord's Mansion to learn witchcraft, and the two rarely kept in touch.

Seeing Vivien, who had a cold face, walking towards him, Vane put down the wine glass in his hand and straightened his collar.

"Father, why didn't Father come?" asked Vivien, staring at Vane.

To be honest, this attitude of hers makes Wayne very unhappy, especially since she still looks like a half-grown Lori.

"How do I know. "Anyway, the relationship wasn't going to be any better, and Vane didn't bother to be kind.

But since he left Brown Castle, there has been no news of Old Barth, and Uncle Chefman had made an appointment to come to the city every three days to buy and see himself, but he has not been here since he returned.

The level of communication in this world is extremely underdeveloped, so Vane does not know what is happening inside the castle.

Fortunately, Bishop Krimu is also in the castle, Bishop Krimu is the archbishop of the Glorious Church in Rolling Stone, and his strength is equivalent to that of a preparatory wizard, although he may not be as good as the pair of men and women who came from the royal capital, but he is still much more powerful than the wizard apprentices at the ball scene.

"How can you talk like that. Little Vivien's little face flushed at Vane's nonchalant attitude: "I'm sure there must be something dirty in the castle, and now my father hasn't contacted us for nearly ten days, how can you have such an attitude!"

"Could it be that if I change to a worried look, can I bless my father with peace and security?" Vane asked rhetorically, "It's a day to be happy, it's a day to be unhappy, why don't you choose to be happy when you can't do anything?"

"Are you ......" Vivien was speechless when Vane asked, and finally held back a sentence: "Shameless and crooked!"

"As for your eldest brother and sister Mary, there should be no shortage of them for such a grand ball. Vane didn't want to argue with Vivien, but changed the subject.

"Sister Mary and Big Brother Tyr are entertaining the adults who have come from the royal capital, so naturally they don't have time to come here. Vivien replied.

After all, the little girl was still young and scheming enough, so Vane asked her and told her.

"Lord from the royal capital?" Vane frowned, "Even the two third-class wizard apprentices, Tyre and Mary, have to entertain them personally, are they official wizards?"

Wizards have supreme authority in this world, and just a wizard apprentice walking on the continent will be recruited as a VIP by countless powerful people.

Although the proportion of people with wizard qualifications and bloodlines on the continent is scarce, in front of the huge population of the continent, the number will not be too small. However, among these people with wizard qualifications and bloodlines, the vast majority of them can only stop at the low-level apprentice stage in their lives, and if they have some adventures, they can break through to the realm of third-class wizard apprentices, and if they choose to serve the country at this time, no kingdom will be stingy with their titles.

However, there is only one person who can really break through to the realm of a formal wizard.

Vivien hesitated for a moment, as if she was struggling with something, but finally couldn't help but say: "I may have to leave Rolling Rock City in the future, and when this ball is over, several adults from the royal capital will go back to the castle with me to see my father, and you will go back with us when the time comes." ”

"Leave?" asked Vane, "where are you going, royal capital?"

The only thing Vane could think of was the Lionheart King. After all, in Rolling Stone, Vivien is studying with a formal wizard, and only by going to the royal capital can she have a greater opportunity.

Thinking of this little girl's talent, Vane himself couldn't help but feel a little jealous.

"Well, we will go to the royal capital first, and then go to a far, far away place. Vivien nodded truthfully, then looked at Vane and said, "After I leave, the Brown family will have to rely on you and my father." ”

Looking at the tone of this little girl like an adult teaching a child, Vane couldn't help but say a little sneering: "Okay, my little genius, I will talk about something after I return to the castle, I still have some things, so I won't chat with you." ”

Vivien shook her head, didn't say anything more, and walked to the place where the seniors were.

Vane didn't mean to open Vivien at this time, and when they were talking just now, Vane's eyes kept an eye on Old Brightman in the dance hall.

When Vivien and his senior brothers arrived, the old man's eyes lit up and he looked a little excited.

By the time Wayne and Vivien spoke, Brightman Sr. was already on crutches and quietly wanted to leave the scene.

Vane quietly followed.

The dance was held in the open air on the grass of the Sosis family estate, and tonight the stars were shining brightly and a cool breeze was blowing.

Vane broke away from the crowd and quietly followed the figure of old Brightman to the gate of the stone castle. At the entrance of the stone fort stood two guards, fully armored and armed with guns.

When Vane approached, the two raised their spears in their hands and crossed them into a large ×, and said solemnly: "Young Master Vane, the baron has ordered that all people are forbidden to enter the stone castle during the ball. ”

Vane said with some surprise: "Oh, I'm a little anxious and want to go to the bathroom." ”

The guard pointed his finger and said, "The toilet is over there." ”

Vane nodded and turned to leave. When he came to an uninhabited tree, Vane looked around, and then contacted Singularity: "Singularity, how is the progress of the insect robot, can it be used now?"

"Report to the owner, the first batch of insect robots has been manufactured, a batch of fifteen, which can hide in the dark and monitor from a distance. However, if you encounter a transcendent, you will be discovered by the opponent's force field, so please use it with caution. ”

These days, in addition to stepping up the purification of No. 1's bloodline, Venn has also specially purchased a batch of materials to make microrobots for No. 1.

The insect robot is a kind of micro-robot, the size and shape are similar to ordinary insects in nature, which can be hidden in the dark, and the high-definition long-distance camera equipped in the body can connect to the central optical brain singularity in the laboratory, and transmit the picture it monitors back in real time. The singularity then transmits the footage to Venn, thus forming long-distance surveillance.

The raw materials needed to build the insect robot were simple, mostly steel and glass, which Vane replaced with items from the world's natives.

However, although insect robots can disguise themselves as insects to spy on them, this method is only effective for mortals, and as for wizards, even if they are ordinary wizard apprentices, they have a strong radiation force field of their own, and they will be discovered and killed by the other party before they get close.

"I hope the elder Brightman is still an ordinary person. Although Vane could be sure that Baron Brightman was indeed an ordinary man from his observations these days, he was always a little uneasy in his heart.

Fifteen insect robots, seven in the shape of mosquitoes and eight ants, flew out of Vane's laboratory and quietly infiltrated the stone castle.

Vane felt the image in front of him turn, as if he had become one of them, and the image in his eyes changed with the angle of the camera on the insect robot.

A few mosquitoes silently bypassed the guards at the door and squeezed in through the crack in the door.

At this time, the stone castle was as silent as death, and most of the servants were entertaining guests on the lawn outside.

"Go to Brightman's bedroom. Vane ordered. Although there are no lights in the stone castle, most of the insect robots have their own infrared scanning machines, so they are not afraid of the dark at all.
