As soon as he walked out of the reception hall, Xia Duo felt that he was surrounded by a strong sound, and it seemed to be full of people outside.

And at this moment, a butler-like person trotted over to greet him, it was Larry, who Xia Duo had just met not long ago, and at this time he almost completely forgot the experience of being beaten just now, and still saluted quite respectfully:

"Sir, the welcome ceremony is ready, please move to the South Tower Square!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Duo couldn't help but glance at Ozkal, and it turned out to be exactly as he expected, those people chose the assassination location in the South Tower Square.

Of course, it may also be on the way to the South Tower Square, and Xia Duo will not let up in the slightest.

"Good!"

At this time, Ozkal regained the enthusiasm he had when he first met, and stretched out his hand to Xia Duo, "Lord Xia Duo, please!" ”

Of course, this is not to go hand in hand, but to invite Xia Duo to parallel, and at this time, Xia Duo can be regarded as personally experiencing what the welcome ceremony in the mainland is like-

The road was lined with cheering crowds, and the closest side of the road was filled with young girls with flower baskets in their hands, and whenever Shado and Ozkal passed by, they would throw out petals a few seconds earlier, paving a path for the two of them.

Now that we have entered the deep autumn season, it is almost impossible to achieve such a scene without magic, and even if there is magic, it is a big expense to create so many petals in a short period of time.

Of course, the other side of etiquette can also be understood as a display of strength.

However, for the ever-vigilant Xia Duo, these petals are undoubtedly a nuisance, and who knows if there will be an assassin or magic suddenly sprang out of these petals, which is not impossible in the wizarding world.

At this time, the bloodline ability [Qi Control] can play its due role, and Xia Duo always controls the airspace within three feet of his body.

And within nearly a foot, any petal that enters this range will quickly lose lateral velocity, as if hitting an invisible barrier.

Ozkal saw these changes around Xia Duo, but did not show them, but secretly reminded: "Be careful of the band behind you!" ”

"Band?"

Xia Duo was shocked, and almost subconsciously turned around to look back, but he still held back, didn't turning back at this time mean that he already knew that there was an assassination?

This may cause the other party to change their plans, or even abandon them, which is not in line with his "assassination" mission.

Xia Duo only communicated with the 0 ring [Communication Technique] with a faint aura fluctuation, and quickly exchanged some information:

"Lord Rodney, is there anything wrong with the band?"

"The sound of the organ is a little out of step with the rhythm of the other instruments, maybe the organist has changed!"

“……”

Xia Duo listened carefully, but he didn't hear anything wrong with the sound of the organ, and he couldn't even make out the sound of the organ.

However, he still agrees with Ozkal's judgment, after all, in terms of familiarity with the band, it must be more familiar to Ozkal, the lord.

Moreover, it is better to believe it than not to believe it, especially in matters related to his own life, Xia Duo still cautiously pays more attention behind him.

……

The distance from Ozkal's waterfront manor to South Tower Square is not too far, but in the middle of the ceremony, the speed is not as fast as it is possible.

In other words, Chadon would rather encounter an assassination on the way than step into the scene of the assassination that may have been arranged by them.

Of course, it is possible that the scene of the assassination was laid out on the way to the South Tower Plaza.

Ozkal speculated that those people would likely use magical items to assassinate them, after all, if you want to assassinate another arcanist in front of a senior arcanist, it will not work without some special abilities.

Along the way, in addition to paying attention to the people he listed as the object of suspicion, the most important thing to focus on was the magical aura that might appear on both sides of the road.

It's hard to avoid this, and even if the magic item itself is devoid of aura, the moment it is used, it will still stir up a magical aura.

This is like trying to attack an underwater target, even if the bullet is invisible, the refractive index of the water around the bullet will change when it penetrates the water body, revealing the body.

In this world, the magic net is almost everywhere, and it is almost impossible to bypass the magic net and attack.

Even if an arcane master unleashes his own arcane fire and attacks through his own miniature magic net, it will still provoke a reaction from the external magic net environment.

Unless it's a purely physical attack like a knife slash or an arrow, but this level of assassination may be possible for an ordinary person, but it is unlikely for an arcane master.

Seeing that he was about to enter the South Tower Plaza, Xia Duo's heart was about to rise to his throat, and he had not found any useful clues until now, which was reassuring.

In this case, he had to pay more attention to the band behind him again.

Although his back was to the band and he couldn't see the magic aura, Xia Duo's perception of the magic net was not much weakened, and it would be an insult to the caster to try to assassinate him just by sneaking up on him from behind.

Where the hell are the Assassins hiding?

……

At that moment, the music suddenly stopped, and Xado and Ozkal stepped into the South Tower Square almost at the same time, and there were not many people in the square, but a small number of them stood out.

It was full of spellcasters, and their identities were a little special, Ozkal immediately left Xia Duo, walked over quickly, and scolded in an unkind tone:

"Nothing to do? What is the heap doing here? ”

At the same time, Coles, who was mingling with the ordinary people in the square, suddenly appeared in his consciousness, "My lord, the target has been confirmed, do you want to do it now?" ”

"Wait, wait for that side first- no, do it, do it now!"

When he saw that the casters had all fallen to the ground at the command of Ozkal, Coles immediately realized that something had changed.

The correct thing to do was to give up, but it was too late, and Larry had already taken out a magic scroll covered in silver lines, which was about to be activated.

Seeing this scene, Coles wanted to die, how could the master let such a fool become his leader!

Before the action, he saw Larry give the magic scroll to one of Ozkal's sons, but he didn't expect Larry to take it back again, which was stupid.

But now that Larry has shown signs of making a move, Coles is not allowed to cooperate with him, and now he is betting on whether Ozkal will have the courage to turn against his master.

The bet is won, everything is as it was before, and even Ozkal will no longer have the psychology to resist; If the bet is lost, the consequences are not for them.

No matter what happens to Ozkal's side, as long as the assassination is confirmed, Ozkal will not be able to get out of the relationship, and even if they win the bet, everything can still return to its original place.

In the flash of light, Coles had sorted out all the stakes and explained them to the others in the Psychic Link.

Psychic communication was swift, and it wasn't until Coles made a decision and teamed up with his subordinates to cast a spell to block teleportation around the plaza that Larry's magic scroll was activated.
