Chapter Seventy-Five: Danton's Invitation

After dinner, Kane walked the mountain paths of Iron King's Castle, with patrolling soldiers at his feet. The fire elemental wizard was in the mood to put on a fireworks display with a huge torch on the ground, and the fire spirits jumped out of the fire and circled around the people present. The soldiers were amused by the lively elf.

When he first practiced swordsmanship at Hammer, Kane was most impressed by the obvious class discrimination, as well as the deceitful and deceitful efforts to trample others under his feet for the sake of rankings and resources. Some people will also have a bad heart because of their military exploits, and spend every day in a highly tense nerve.

But the army below the Iron King Castle does not seem to have this atmosphere at all, and they have many fun activities to play, such as drinking, dancing, singing, etc., which are all activities for them to relax themselves. As far as he knew, there was no such activity in the regular armies of the Harrence Dynasty, and they had no daily entertainment other than training, and the soldiers were like machines that ran according to orders.

Summer fireflies twinkle in the night sky, and the breeze rustles the thick leaves of the iron trees. Kane walked along the gravel trail around Iron Ridge. The eyes of the two-toothed beasts in the valley glowed red, and their low roar was carried up the mountain by the mountain wind and into Kane's ears.

There seemed to be a figure in the stone pavilion in front of him, and he looked a little familiar. Kane walked up in confusion, and then he saw Neroth and another unexpected "acquaintance". It is not quite correct to say that they are acquaintances. I guess Tib himself thinks so, and he looks like he's prepared this time. The last time they met, the two were still chasing and being hunted and killed, but now they can sit together and chat well in this pavilion, and they can't see that the two had that unfriendly experience before.

Neros was not surprised to see Kane coming, but Tib did not seem to have any intention of continuing the conversation, and he got up to say goodbye to the two of them.

"His appearance looks like he's changed a lot, but maybe I'm bigger in comparison." Kane said with a smile, "He probably doesn't recognize me." Still, I'm curious how he ended up here, and you're still sitting and chatting. ”

"Everyone has a plan, and nothing is impossible as long as the interests are agreed. He'd done so much before just to get my magic notes from the black market, which he said was one of their Firefier clan's treasures, and he was going to bring it back. He wants to get it back from me. ”

"All you gave him?" Kane asked, looking at Neroth. It was something he had exchanged for his life, and it would be a bit of a pity for Nelus to give it away like this.

"Of course not, I'm not that stupid, and the notebook isn't on me right now. I couldn't take him with me when I escaped, and I guess Talos has taken it by now, and this scumbag uses it to summon dark creatures and blame me! His tone grew cold, and Talos betrayed his trust and stabbed him in the back, causing him to be what he is now.

"So how do you deal with him and tell him that things aren't with you?"

"No, I told him that if he could bring Talos to me, or break into the Magic Society, I'd give him the note."

"He agreed?"

Of course, he had no reason to refuse, he had already planned to do so. He was an important helper in Danton's plan to attack Carrot City, and he tried to use Danton's power to destroy the Guild and find the note. Well, now that we're all on the same page, we're all aiming for the Magic Guild. Teacher Yorick is gone, it's no longer the place I want to protect, and if Talos wants it, I'm going to let him get what he wants, and I'm going to destroy the position he coveted. Neriches saw an intricate projection of the Guild's architecture in his palm, and with a firm grip of his hand, the projection instantly dissipated and turned into a little fluorescent.

"Can the Iron King Castle really deal with William? Everyone could see Danton's rebellious heart, but William was not afraid at all, and even prepared a banquet to invite him to the palace to deepen the brotherhood together. William wouldn't be stupid enough to be like this, right, would he have ambushed an army in the city, if Danton dared to go, the end might be that there was no return. Kane guessed.

"The situation should not be as bad as we think, and we can imagine the situation Dandong can also think of it, and if he dares to launch a rebellion, he will be sure to deal with the unexpected situation. At the moment, we can only hope that Dandong will not be so stupid. ”

"Hopefully."

Back at the Iron King's Castle, Kane was invited by Danton, who invited him to his study, accompanied by Hut. It seems that his Xiu Te's status is even higher than he imagined, and the mage who can accompany Dandong in this situation wants to have a little extraordinary status. His magic level is not very high, just an ordinary fifth-level mage, there are many powerful mages and wizards around Dandong, but only Xiute can accompany him.

Dandong pushed open the heavy door of the lacquered gold-edged room, the interior was richly decorated, the books were neatly stacked on the shelves, the room exuded a faint fragrance, and all the furniture was spotless.

Danton lay comfortably on the couch, Kane sat down across from him, and Schut sat on the other side. He asked Kane what he wanted to drink, and when he got the answer, he got to work. Kane was full of doubts, but Danton looked very relaxed.

Schute quickly brought a drink, Kane asked for a glass of juice, and Danton loved wine.

"I've heard from Shut that you're a very powerful mage and a knight with extraordinary combat prowess. I'd like to ask you to join me at the banquet in three days' time to enter the palace and change into the Iron King's Castle armor with the Red Skull Knights. Dandong put down his glass and said with a smile.

Kane didn't reply immediately, he looked at Hught, and then pondered for a moment. Seeing that he was thinking about it, Xiut wanted to persuade Kane, but was stopped by Danton. He respects Kane's choice and gives him time to think about it, and what is difficult is not his principle.

Danton's words revealed a lot of confidence, and it was also an opportunity for Kane to deepen his relationship with the Iron King. Kane had no reason to refuse, so he agreed. Danton was glad that he had made the right decision, and for this reason asked Xiut to pick up the gift that had been prepared for him.

Shut led Kane down the hall, and he showed Kane the magic scrollβ€”a broken ancient fragment of blood magic that wrote how to suppress the blood demon that ran rampant in his body.

This doesn't do much for Kane, he has Aruno in his body, and he will have a way to help Kane suppress the Blood Fiend. But after all, this is also a part of Danton's heart, and Kane is embarrassed to refuse, so he can only accept this scroll.

Back in his room that night, Aruno suddenly appeared again, telling Kane that the scroll was useful. He made Kane unfold, and there was only a corner on it, just a part of a full scroll.

"Is there anything special about this?" Kane asked.

"Do you think he's just an ordinary scroll that suppresses the Blood Demon, if you think so, you're very wrong. I've seen this scroll, of course, a different part. Remember the powerful blood mage I told you about, I had seen a scroll like this in his place, and he told me that it was the origin of blood magic, and that there were many mysteries of blood magic that he had never figured out. With this scroll, we can beg him to teach you about blood magic, and there is no reason for him to refuse such a gift. ”

"How did such a rare treasure fall into Dandong's hands?" Kane wondered.

"That's not what we should be concerned about, anyway, it's a good thing to get it. Now it's time for you to practice blood magic, I have a hunch that the blessed ones of the Church are tricky people, and they happen to be of good use to you. ”

"I'm not just a mage, I still have this sword." Kane said as he wiped the Demon Sealing Sword.

"I'm worried that there are some other threats that we don't see, you know? Things are not as simple as we seem, times are changing, and something is about to break through the shackles and escape from the abyss. The world that was as calm as the surface of the water has been changed by a stone that has inadvertently fallen into it, and there is a murderous motive hidden under the rippling surface of the water. ”

"I know, strength is the only weapon to live in this world."

What Aruno said he understood that the time was in the right place and that there was no time to waste. In the first two battles, he absorbed a lot of blood power, and even the prototype of the blood demon was condensed, Kane thought about the plan for the next few days, he wanted to take advantage of the few days when no one was disturbing the Iron King Castle to absorb a little more blood power.

He set his sights on the two-toothed beasts in the valley, they were very good nourishment, they could provide a lot of blood, and the blood power of an adult two-toothed beast was worth three or four strong humans. He planned to tell Danton about the hunt tomorrow, presumably he would not refuse to invest in a powerful ally.

When he told Danton about this, Danton generously let him kill as he pleased, and even lent Kane his few excellent hunting dogs, just so that he could hunt a few more in a short time.

Although Xiut is a mage, he has a special ability - the Imperial Beast, and it is a beast with special properties, such as wolf demons, mutated beasts, etc. He offered to help Kane, and he could use this special ability to help Kane quickly.

After packing up their gear, they descended the huge ropes that hung down from the mountain to the valley floor into the valley forest, where the ground was littered with bones, and they had only taken a few steps before a skull rolled down. The forest looked more unforgiving and terrifying here than it looked from above, like a cruel place where corpses were dumped, and where the executioners were wild beasts.
