Gervais waited silently on the shore for more than half an hour, and at this time, Gervais's eyes lit up, and the opportunity finally came.

I saw a small group of guards searching the woods in front of them, and a few people were slowly searching towards the lake.

One of the guards was approaching Gervais with a torch.

There were several large rocks in front of Gervais, and the guard glanced at this side, and walked over with a torch.

"That's you!"

"It's good that Lao Tzu is versatile!"

Seeing the guard approaching, Gervais began to conceive illusions in his mind, he had no fighting spirit now, and if he wanted to quietly trap this guard, he could only rely on illusions.

With a torch in one hand and a sword at his waist in the other, the guard cautiously approached the stone slowly, ensuring that if any danger arose, he would be the first to respond.

But suddenly, the guard seemed to see a glimmer of gold ahead in the darkness.

"What's that?"

Seeing a touch of gold, the guard couldn't help but raise the torch a little higher, wanting to look more closely.

By the faint light of the fire, when the guard saw clearly what was emitting golden light, his heart suddenly felt a thrill.

It was a money bag, the mouth of the black money bag was opened, and there were more than a dozen gold coins scattered around the money bag, but the money bag was still drumming and muttering.

It was a windfall, but the guard, though he was overjoyed, did not lose his vigilance, but became more cautious, stopped and began to look around.

The guard first carefully checked the situation behind a few boulders, and found that there was no figure, so he looked around again, but there was still no figure, and then he began to move his body and quickly came to the money bag.

"Good luck! It's worth the income of the first half of the year! ”

Thinking of this, the guard bent down and lowered his arm on the hilt of his sword, ready to pick up the gold coins and money bags on the ground.

But when the guard's arm was placed on the money bag, he suddenly realized that something was wrong, because his fingers did not feel the touch of the money bag.

Boom!

But it was useless for him to react at this point, because Gervais had already knocked a stone the size of a brick on his neck.

After a muffled sound, the guard fell unconscious, and Gervais quickly took the torch from his hand and helped him behind the rocks.

It was only three minutes later that Gervais had changed into the guard's armor and stepped out from behind the rocks.

The guard, on the other hand, was thrown directly behind the rocks by Gervais, tied into rice dumplings with wire locks found on him, and a large blanket was gagged in his mouth.

In fact, the safest thing is to kill him, otherwise with his silver knight's cultivation, the ordinary rope will not be able to trap him at all.

Luckily, Gervais found a small bundle of wire locks from him, forged from Mithril, which allowed the guard to escape, leaving one behind.

After all, there is no injustice and no revenge, if you can not kill him, Gervais is not willing to kill innocents indiscriminately, and killing him will really offend the owner of this place to death.

The man was tied hand and foot, covered his mouth, and hid behind rocks, and could not be found until tomorrow.

……

"Assemble!"

Gervais did not leave immediately after changing the guard's armor, but searched the vicinity in disguise.

One is to wait to leave with the guards, and the other is to prevent other guards from coming here to search.

After about ten minutes, there was finally a gathering sound on the road ahead.

When Gervais heard the shout, he saw that the other guards had stopped searching and went to assemble, so he walked there without hurrying.

"Did you find anything?"

This man should be their captain, and when he saw the team members returning, he glanced at everyone and asked.

"Captain, I didn't find out!"

"Captain, I didn't find it here!"

Several guards shook their heads, and Gervais's appearance was exactly the same as the guard who was stunned by him, and he also shook his head in the midst of everyone's voices, indicating that he had not noticed.

"If you don't find it, forget it!"

"Today's things are a little inexplicable, I heard the captain say that he is a thief, but he has no cultivation, how is this possible, it is impossible for ordinary people to break into the City Lord's Mansion if he gives him 10,000 guts, and besides, the walls of the City Lord's Mansion are more than thirty meters high, who can climb in!"

"Captain, do you think it could be a wild mage?"

"The number of wild mages is so small, how dare they come to the City Lord's Mansion to be thieves, if they are ordered by the Magic Association, they will die!"

"Let's go! Since there is no discovery! Let's meet at the gate! ”

The captain and the team whispered for a moment, and finally waved his hand and led the group forward.

Soon, Gervais followed everyone to the gate of the welcome area of the City Lord's Mansion.

At this time, hundreds of uniformed guards had gathered here, all of them standing quietly and waiting.

"Deputy Commander! We didn't find anything! ”

"Well, let's go over there and wait!"

Afterwards, Gervais and his group of ten people joined the crowd and stood quietly waiting on the sidelines.

Only then did Gervais really feel the extraordinaryness of this place in his heart, and the soldiers present were all silver knights, and there was not even a bronze knight among them.

Fortunately, these soldiers will not be like Gervais, who turns on his perception and peeps at others all day long, otherwise he will definitely be noticed that something is wrong with him if he has no fighting spirit now.

After waiting for more than half an hour, Gervais and his family had gathered thousands of guards, all of whom had just returned from the search in the welcome area.

The deputy commander of the legion, having determined that tonight's search had yielded nothing, walked to the front of all the guards and began to speak.

"It's late at night, and there are still VIPs in the pre-function area, so in order not to disturb their rest, today's search operation is suspended, and the search will continue tomorrow morning!"

"The 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th squadrons are now back at camp and ready for tomorrow morning's search!"

"The sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, and squadrons are to guard all exits in the welcome area tonight, and not even a single mouse is allowed to go out!"

"Do you understand?"

"Yes, sir!"

"Very well, let's get moving!"

After saying that, the deputy commander didn't reply, turned over and rode a magical beast that Gervais had never seen before and left first.

And Gervais also learned from these guards beside him that the team he was in now belonged to the fifth squadron, and it was just right to return to the camp to rest.

This made Gervais breathe a good sigh of relief.

There are not many people in this welcome area, except for the guests and guests received by the city lord's mansion, only those servants who are specially responsible for guarding, and it is the middle of the night, these servants can only stay in the manor where they are located, and there are no people on the road outside except for the soldiers who are searching.

The lack of people meant that Gervais couldn't fish in troubled waters and leave, and now leaving the pre-function area gave Gervais a much better chance of escaping.

In addition, this pre-function area is a key search place, and if you continue to stay there, you will be the turtle in the urn.

Soon, under the leadership of his captain, Gervais easily passed through the exit of the welcome area.

"This city lord's mansion is really big, I'm afraid that the palace of the City of Glory doesn't even have a tenth of his!"

After exiting the pre-function area, Gervais silently followed the guards into a wider area.

The view was much wider than in the pre-function area, and there were many Gothic buildings on both sides of the road, and it was here that Gervais finally met a man or two other than the guards.

However, Gervais obviously couldn't get away with these people, and didn't pay much attention to them.

Instead, he kept secretly looking around and observing the terrain.

After walking for about five or six minutes, Gervais suddenly noticed something strange.

"Why is that tree so tall! And what are those lights? Neon? Or a drone? Am I not dreaming"

Just as Gervais passed through a city gate again, he suddenly noticed a tall tree in the distance.

Gervais estimated that he was at least a mile away from the tree, but it still felt very tall from here.

The most important thing is that when he looked closely, he could see that the big tree was actually emitting a faint fluorescence.

Although the fluorescence was not very bright, it could be faintly distinguished in the dark.

And in addition to the fluorescence of the tree itself, there are also colored lights like the tail of a meteor passing around the trees, sometimes fast, sometimes slow, sometimes close to the big tree, sometimes rapid and far away.

This aroused Gervais's curiosity, but it was night, and although there was a little moonlight, he couldn't see the distant scenery at all.

Gervais didn't dare to ask the guards around him, otherwise he would definitely expose himself, so Gervais held back his curiosity and waited until he left here.
