Chapter 411: Maxelle's Trap

There was a faint sound of glass breaking upstairs, Xing Han noticed that it was not good, there were no windows in the study corridor, if there were a few extra pieces of glass out of thin air, it was probably to prevent Lan from moving quickly with a steel wire.

"Ahh

Xing Han glanced at the arm that fell to the ground, holding a long sword in his palm, it seems that Lan's assassination has failed, and now he must hurry upstairs to support her!

The sound of the fight was getting closer and closer, and Xinghan crunched down and felt the corner of the stairs, slowly poking his head out from behind the wall.

There were about seven or eight guards in the spacious corridor, each with a weapon in their hands, and Lan was forced at the end of the corridor, so she had to slash one of the guards and pull it in front of her as a shield, her eyes seemed to have found her position, and she glared at Xinghan and told him not to come.

"Luifez, the guy who infiltrated the Wind Rider Manor is really you, and we have caught you now, right?!If we hand you over to the king, our brothers will probably be able to get a few titles, and it is better to stay there obediently, do you think you can still run away in this situation?!" The guard standing at the front slowly approached Lan, no matter how skilled her physical skills were, she was outnumbered against so many enemies in this narrow corridor.

"Damn!" Xing Han retracted his head back behind the wall, now he can't use magic, not even the forbidden weapon can be summoned, if he can use the broken star, these arrogant guys are simply air in front of him!

"Is it a good plan to block my steel wire with glass, who taught you?" Lan looked at the thin steel wire that two of the guards were holding in their right hands, not only did they break the glass just now, but even the steel wire was caught by them, and it was arranged like this, it must be aimed at themselves, could it be seen through by others so quickly?

The lead guard laughed and said, "Hahaha, this is what Master Maxelle 61K61 Laurock ordered us, she said that the murderer is probably Louifez 61 Lan, hmph, sure enough, Lord Maxelle guessed correctly!"

"Cut...... It turned out to be the woman. Lan frowned, Maxelle seemed to have surpassed herself in every aspect, whether it was physical skills, magic skills, from combat to reasoning, she was really much better than herself.

Xing Han only noticed at this time that Lan's one hand was holding a sword against the neck of the guard in front of him, while the other hand had been covering his abdomen, the blood on the ground was no longer distinguishable from who's, it was bright red in the light, and the carpet was full of glass shards, mixed with the blood and blurred.

"Whew-"

Suddenly a black shadow scurried behind him, Xing Han cautiously turned his head, but what he saw was only a phantom shadow, and with the shadow flew out with an earthy yellow ball, which seemed to be a smoke device, and quickly spewed out a large amount of white smoke and dust after landing!

"What?!And accomplices?!"

The white smoke suddenly filled the entire corridor, Lan saw the opportunity to stab the guards in front of him with a short sword back, and the sturdy figure immediately disappeared into the white smoke, and after a few sword shadows, the wall was splashed with blood on the guards!

"Looks like that woman isn't here......"

"Uhh

"Are you okay?" The white smoke gradually dissipated, revealing a girl in a gothic dress, she glanced back at Xing Han's position, and said with a chuckle: "It's good that it came in time, otherwise that stupid guy doesn't know what will happen~"

"Merlot...... Call...... It's good to be you. Xinghan glanced at the corpses that were staggering on the ground, so there was probably no need to hide it anymore, Maxelle seemed to be too confident in her plan, she thought that the guards she had arranged were enough to catch Lan, but this was also her negligence.

Lan sat slowly on the ground against the wall, his forehead was full of sweat, his black battle suit was dirty, his abdomen was open, and blood was constantly pouring out of the wound.

"Uh...... I was careless for a while, but I didn't expect to fall into Maxelle's trap. Lan glanced at her injuries, she had been stabbed by the guards who had been ambushed in the room during the battle, and those magicians could have done it, no matter what she was holding in her hands, and they all beckoned to her.

"Lan, let's take a break in the study, Merlo, is there any way to heal the wound?" Xing Han opened the door of the study and carried Lan to the desk.

Merlo then closed the door of the study and locked it, there was nothing to support the source of magic here, and she had no choice but to slowly walk in front of Lan and said, "This can only stop the bleeding first, fortunately, the wound is not deep, otherwise there is only a way to treat it outside the king's city." ”

Xing Han took off his coat and took off the shirt inside and handed it to Mei Luo: "Let's use this for a while, and then treat it well after I go back, since the wound is not deep, I can only grieve you to rest here." ”

"Mr. Xinghan, the time of that monitor is from eleven to four in the morning, right?"

"Hmm. ”

"Then we have to go back an hour early, otherwise we won't be able to finish her wounds before four o'clock. Merlo used a knife on her desk to cut her shirt into strips of cloth and tie it around Ran's waist, then sneaked into the dining room outside, took a glass of water and brought it back to the study, and locked the door again.

After placing Lan, Xinghan took out the King's Seat and continued to think about it against the keyhole of the drawer, and he had been thinking about the King's Seat for a long time during the day, but sure enough, he could only get serious when he came here and faced this drawer.

"Mr. Xinghan, is there any problem?" Merlo didn't continue to take care of Lan, but ran to Xinghan's side and squatted down to look at the drawer of the desk, "Eh, the inscription of hardening magic, isn't there no magic here?"

"I don't know, this is the last clue left by the Duke of Windrider, I suspect it has something to do with this necklace. Xinghan handed Merlo the throne, hoping that she would find something useful in it.

Merlo looked at the throne and the keyhole with hardened magic attached to it, and after a long time, she said slowly, "This necklace is a very pure magical body, and it is not suitable to exist in this enchantment where magic is forbidden. It's like my Silver Pillar of Light, which is also a pure mana, but it can be fully displayed here, and I tried to summon the Silver Pillar of Light when I came here, but failed. ”

"Do you mean there's something affecting it?" asked Hoshihan.

"That's probably it, there's something in this enchantment that can keep it alive for a long time, it could be a person or an object, and it's the same reason that this magic inscription exists. If I'm not mistaken, I've seen in books before that everything that maintains a pure magical body has its true appearance, and the key to whether this true appearance appears depends on the object associated with it. In other words, this necklace called the Throne is not what it originally looked like. Merlo placed the necklace on the table, stood up and walked towards the bookshelf.

"What are you doing, Merlo?" Xing Han asked with some curiosity as she watched Mero start rummaging around the bookshelves.

Merlo turned around and said, "Although I don't know the truth about the relationship between the Duke of Windrider and the Rebel Revolution, if the Duke of Windrider deliberately left the contents of that drawer, he should have some useful information stored around." ”

"It's impossible, this place has been searched by the Wang Formation troops, except for this desk, the rest of the valuable things must have been taken. Xinghan came to the bookshelf next to Merlo and watched her rummage through the bookshelf.

"Stupid Lan, do you remember the book that Duke Windrider usually reads the most?" After five minutes, Merlo finally gave up on this idea and turned to ask.

Lan frowned a little dissatisfiedly and said, "It seems to be written by Basanrinik's "Despair", my father has been studying this book since I was a child, and I seem to admire its author very much. ”

"yes, where is this book located?"

"How do I remember this!" Lan retorted loudly before he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen, and shrunk back to pay no attention to Merlo.

"Mr. Xinghan, it seems that you are the only one looking for it, there are forty-five minutes left, take that book back and read it, and come here again the night after tomorrow." Merlo jumped down from the height of the bookshelf, patted her butt and walked to the door.

Xing Han reacted and grabbed Mei Luo's shoulder: "Why am I alone?"

"There's a lot of broken glass outside, and if this is a trap set by someone, I'm going to restore it to its original state, so that I can clear my suspicion of stupid Ran. Merlo glanced at Lan by the wall, opened the door and walked out with a blank face.

"Click"

The door of the study was closed by Mei Luo from the outside, and Lan asked softly after seeing Mei Luo leave, "Xing Han, that girl is the fourth lady of the Judri Lan noble, right?"

"yes, what's wrong?" Xing Han dealt with Lan's question as he searched for a book called "Despair".

"Nothing, kid...... It's very smart. ”

"I'll admit that she's always been very good at handling and analyzing problems, and she's probably the smartest of the four heirs of Juderiland. Xinghan replied with a smile.

"Your relationship looks good. ”

"Looking at her always reminds me of Fei'er, anyway, this feeling is not bad, I haven't been back for nearly two months, I don't know how Fei'er is doing in the world, but if there is Nishizawa in that place, nothing should happen, Julio should be able to take care of them......"

Xinghan stopped suddenly, Lan probably didn't know what she was talking about, she didn't know who Julio was at all, and Nishizawa rarely met, so she always felt a little excluded.

After a long time, Lan, who was leaning against the wall, sighed and said, "During the time I was away...... Xinghan, you've been through a lot again......"
