The castle of the Borean family was built beneath the rock greatsword, and from the window at the back of the castle, you could only see the towering cliffs, like a straight mountain. 【For more exciting novels, please visit】A miracle of such a grand scale is by no means accomplished by human beings, and it is said that it was the Sword Saint of the North Wind himself who inserted this sword here as his own tombstone. However, El scoffed at this statement, preferring to believe that this thing was originally a mountain, and then it was cut into its current form by the Sword Master of the North Wind.

The base of the greatsword can only be seen from the castle window, where there is no tomb of the legendary Juggernaut, only a huge platform paved with white stone, about a hundred meters in length and width. Thinking that this is where Miss Quasi-Sword Saint practices martial arts on weekdays, but now it is empty, and it looks particularly empty and quiet.

El leaned on the wall with a teacup, looking at the white platform under his feet, and there was an impulse in his heart to try, according to the introduction of the little maid Qiqi, the swordsmen cultivated by the Northern Wind Sword Saint for generations have cultivated here, and over time, this platform has also been infected with a layer of invisible coercion, and ordinary people can't even get close.

Of course, El doesn't think of himself as an ordinary person, maybe he has had this kind of inferiority complex before, but after all, he has been a general for so long, and his long-term position of high power will eventually affect his self-perception. His previous dream was at best to be a small estate owner like Baron Farrah, but now, Baron Farah was just an insignificant role in front of him. The higher you stand, the farther you see, and the more ambitious you are.

"What the hell is that prophet of the Masonry Brotherhood up to?"

Across the balcony, Tiana put down her teacup and squinted her eyes to enjoy the sun. The hustle and bustle of the exile ranks kept her desk from her desk, and she hardly had time to relax like she did now. Because she always wore a veil, the girl's face was much fairer than before, perhaps this was the goal pursued by those noble daughters, but El preferred to see her ruddy face, health is the most natural beauty.

"It doesn't matter what I'm going to do, I've always been laissez-faire anyway, but doesn't it matter what you do over there?"

"It doesn't matter, I've already contacted Lorana with the Teleportation Crystal, and she'll take over my job temporarily. Tiana closed her eyes and changed to a more comfortable position, and said lazily: "I don't have anything serious about the work in my hands, to put it bluntly, it's nothing more than the coordination of interests and the distribution of numbers, with the character of that fox, I am likely to enjoy it." （）”

"Ah, say it! Is it really good to describe your secretary like that? I'll make a small report," El laughed.

"If you say she's a fox, that guy will just laugh at her. Tiana suddenly opened her eyes and looked at El with a serious face and said, "Do you think that the two of us are really redundant. If we weren't there, Mr. Ahmed and Lorana could just as well do what we're doing, and definitely better than we did. ”

"If it were someone else, I would say that there are some things that only you can do! El spread out his hands and pursed his lips and said helplessly: "The two of us are not Istarons in the first place, even if we are not here, Istalon people can still survive tenaciously. So...... Why don't we two just elope. ”

Tiana also knew that El was talking nonsense, so she didn't bother to refute it. The reason why the two of them were able to get such leisure time was due to the current owner of Sword Castle. After hearing of the tragedy of the destruction of the Little Lord of the North, Diana showed a considerable degree of shock, and then, without saying a word, rushed out to find the prophet of the Masonry Brotherhood, leaving the two guests in the dining room.

Although it is said that a strong person like her has freedom of action, El and Tiana are not optimistic about her reckless behavior. If the prophet was as cunning as they thought, he would have been able to deceive Diana in a few words. According to Tiana's estimate, this process should not take more than three minutes, so the two of them found a balcony with a nice view, and waited for the return of the prospective Miss Swordmaster while resting.

"What do you say the Prophet Muhammad would have explained to Diana?" El asked after lying for a while.

"The easiest way to do that is to bite back and throw sewage on us. Tiana said without thinking.

"But we have someone here. ”

"That kind of person can be found as long as you buy it with money!"

"They don't look like they're rich, do they?"

"Didn't you just make a big vote?"

"That's true, but then again, what exactly are they robbing for?"

This is also a problem that cannot be solved for the time being, from the perspective of El and Tiana, no amount of money is now more important than food, God knows how far this plague will be, even if the food in the field is about to be harvested, but the refugees may not be able to wait until that time. So now the question arises, what is the use of the Masonry Brotherhood asking for money? Can they buy food from sources that others don't know about? Money is also meaningless to the dead of the Cursed Sect, only the souls of the living can satisfy their appetites.

The Masonry Brotherhood, hidden among the refugees, is still a fog so far, and there is nothing El and Tiana can do about it when they don't get more information, all they can do now is lie in the sun and waste the tea and snacks of the Sword Keep, chatting while waiting for news from Diana.

It's like two chess players playing against each other, El's plundering of food is the first move, and the masonry brotherhood is taking advantage of the fire to rob is the response. Last night's temptation was the second move on Ixtalen's side. As the situation was still uncertain, both El and Tiana were cautious, and they had no way of knowing what the prophet was doing, but in any case, if the opponent made a second move, the situation would be clearer, and at least they would be able to find a general direction.

"Miss Diana has been gone for half an hour, hasn't it?" El looked at the angle of the sunlight on the edge of the teacup, and couldn't help but speak, "Even if you let that prophet make up nonsense, it's time to finish, right?"

Tiana opened her eyes, frowned, and sat up to take the communication crystal from her pocket. Just as Elle was speaking, she suddenly felt the vibration of the communication crystal. Because this thing is not a hand-made magic item, it is inevitable that all kinds of accidents will occur, so she and Lolana will not use this method of communication casually unless necessary.

Before she could hold the communication crystal steadily, the voice of Lolana could not wait to be heard from the other side, and Miss Merchant's tone sounded unusually serious: "Miss Lanstadt, you and El must rush back as soon as possible to preside over the situation, the Masonry Brotherhood ......"

With a click, the communication crystal fell to the ground, and the light in the crystal ball flickered a few times before it was extinguished, and Lolana's voice came to an abrupt end. Tiana looked at her palms suspiciously, and suddenly felt a dizziness in her mind, and couldn't help but shake her body to the side.

"What's wrong with you?" El hurriedly pounced and held the girl on top of the chair, and then he also felt that something was wrong, the power in his body seemed to be passing silently, like a water bag that had been poked out of a small hole, at first he didn't feel any change, but when he tensed his muscles, he immediately noticed that something was wrong.

"Tea...... Poisonous. Tiana leaned limply back in her chair and whispered as she opened her mouth tremblingly.

With a loud bang, the door to the reception room was kicked open, and heavily armed guards swarmed in through the doorway, encircling the two men. Then, a middle-aged aristocratic man with a sword at his waist walked in from outside. He held the hilt of the sword in his hand, carefully looked at the state of the two of them, and said loudly: "According to the order of the eldest lady, the evidence of your collusion with the robbers has been confirmed, and now you must lay down your weapons and accept supervision, please don't make unnecessary resistance." ”

El tilted his head to look at him, and asked with some curiosity, "May I ask what your identity is and what should you call it?"

The middle-aged aristocratic man cleared his throat and said expressionlessly: "Here is the captain of the garrison of the Beifeng family, the first-class honorary viscount Hua Rhine Baroque, if you have heard my surname, you should know that my ancestor is the sword protector of the Beifeng family. I know that both of them are young and handsome men of Isttalon's name, but it is better not to be clever in front of me. If you can cooperate, I will arrange treatment for you in line with your status......"

"I've never heard of a sword protector. El impatiently interrupted the middle-aged nobleman's rambling speech, looked at him with a sneering face, and smiled: "Although everyone understands what is going on, it is better to make up a reasonable reason, right? If that young lady really has this intention, a sword can solve the problem." And you're talking so much nonsense here, it's just that you want to wait until the poison is completely set out before you do it. ”

Since the two of them refused to cooperate, they could only express regret. Hearing what El said, the corners of Hua Laiyin's eyes twitched, and he snorted coldly and said to the guards beside him: "Catch them, and if you resist, kill them on the spot!"

"You may be mistaken about one thing. If that young lady were here, we'd not even be able to put a fart. El shrugged his shoulders and smiled disdainfully, "But that doesn't mean we're also afraid of you who can't even draw a sword. ”

"Kill them!" Hua Laiin shouted with a grim face, and the guards around the room immediately drew their long swords and stabbed them at El's body with extraordinary ferocity.

The light, which could not be seen directly by the naked eye, exploded in the room, followed by the sound of wails everywhere. The guards subconsciously closed their eyes because of the sudden light, but at this moment, the small marbles scattered on the ground erupted into snowflake-shaped sharp spikes, and the huge phantom thistle terrestris with a radius of more than eighty centimeters turned the entire room into a flesh slaughterhouse.

El took Tiana in his arms, kicked over the guards who stood in the way, ran to the edge of the balcony in two steps, and jumped without hesitation.
