Sending off a group of professionals, the captain of the musket motioned for the others to put away their guns.

He came to the Grand Duke and glanced at the man in black who was leading the horse for the Grand Duke.

"Grand Duke, why don't you send this one away together."

Archduke James glared at him angrily, and said dissatisfiedly: "What, you still want to take care of the affairs of this Archduke?" ”

"This kid has eyes, and knows that Archduke Ben likes to hear others call me Archduke James, and Archduke Ben likes him, so keep him by his side and listen to it, you can handle it!"

"Well, you aren't needed here. Take someone back! Next, my personal guard will take over and keep me safe. ”

"This ...... Yes, Grand Duke. ”

Faced with the threatening eyes of the Grand Duke, the musketeer captain swallowed back the words that came to his lips.

He is not one of those fools outside, he worked as an errand under the Grand Duke in his early years, and he knows the temperament of the Grand Duke.

Otherwise, the Grand Duke would not have directly named him as an escort.

He was not the only captain of the musketeers.

"Stinky boy, it's quite obedient. Do a good job, and in a few days you will be promoted to captain! ”

I'll go!

As soon as you say that, I'm in good spirits!

The captain of the musket looked back excitedly at the Grand Duke, in exchange for a disdainful glance from the Grand Duke.

Scratching his head with a sneer, the captain of the musket ran away with his men.

When all the outsiders left, leaving only the man in black and the Grand Duke, the man in black fell directly to his knees.

"Subordinates, see the Grand Duke."

"Get up. What's going on, how did you get hurt. ”

"My subordinates are incompetent, and I was injured by the old man from the Magic Guild."

"What! Damn old thing, I knew I let Faith shoot him with an arrow! ”

Fisli is the Golden Knight just now. He is good at archery, and it is said that when he was young, he practiced archery for a while with a ranger who passed by the village.

It's a pity that the ranger left later, and the unguided Filsley stood out in the army with his good archery skills, and was appreciated by his superiors, who then recruited him as his son-in-law, and passed on his family's fighting spirit.

Fisley then embarked on the path of knighthood, but his archery skills were even better than those of ordinary hunters.

Sneak attack on a mage, more than enough.

"Don't worry, Grand Duke. We didn't lose anything, although the old man covered it up well, but as an assassin, I could still see that he was shot and wounded, but it was a little far away, and I didn't see where he was hurt. ”

"Oh? Looks like you're a kid with a lot of talent. In this way, while you are recuperating from your injuries, I will grant you a vacation, and you will go to the palace for further study. I'll say hello to the Queen, and she'll arrange for someone to guide you. ”

"Thank you, Grand Duke."

"Okay, don't thank you. Tell me, what's going on here? What are your three men looking for at the bottom of the lake? ”

The man in black scratched his head embarrassedly and replied, "Actually, my subordinates don't know what happened. Because when the subordinates arrived here, they only saw the ending. As for my subordinates, they are helping Lord Zola salvage things at the bottom of the lake. I don't know exactly what it is. But what can make Zola-sama fall in love must be something very precious! ”

"Huh? Zola is coming? How I don't know. ”

The man in black thought about it, but decided to take the duke to see it.

"Well, Lord Duke, please dismount and come with me. By the way, be prepared not to be scared. ”

The Duke smiled and rolled over and dismounted, and followed.

"Why, you're just like the fool outside, thinking that Grand Duke Ben will only pretend and be a!"

"The subordinates don't dare. The wisdom of the Grand Duke can be seen through by outsiders. ”

"You kid can be a sycophant, but I like it."

"Hey, hey. Wherever I speak, I speak from my heart. ”

"It's over, it's over."

The two of them have no superiors and subordinates at all, and they are like friends at will.

Walking into the forest for more than ten meters, the Grand Duke suddenly paused and looked at the scene in front of him in surprise.

I saw a huge block of ice standing between two or three frozen trees.

Inside the ice, a monstrous spider monster is frozen inside.

"Is this—the monster that escaped last night?"

For some reason, it was obviously different from the form in the intelligence, but the first reaction of the Grand Duke was already thinking of the monster that suddenly disappeared after the storm in the city last night.

"The Grand Duke is wise! Sure enough, the discernment is unique. The subordinates also studied it for a while before they deduced that it was the monster. ”

The Grand Duke did not respond to the sycophants of the man in black, but let go of his steps and stepped forward.

Fearless of the low temperature released by the ice, he leaned over to the ice cube and carefully observed the monster inside.

"It's strange, since it was Zola who made the shot, how could there be so much damage on it. It doesn't fit Zola's aesthetic at all. ”

"You have misunderstood, Grand Duke. This monster wasn't wounded by Mistress Zola. When I arrived, I saw Mistress Zola standing in a tree by the lake, watching the whirlpools appear in the lake. ”

"And in the whirlpool, the injured monster is using spider silk to entangle the trees on the shore and get out of the lake."

"As soon as it came ashore, it was frozen by the sword of Lord Zola, and then Lord Zora resisted it into the three forests and hid it. Then he jumped off the whirlpool and brought out two seriously injured and unconscious ...... from the bottom of the lake Person. ”

"Huh? What are you waiting for? ”

"The subordinates feel that maybe the title is a bit wrong, because the subordinates feel that one of the people rescued by Lord Zola may not be a person."

"Oh? And this kind of thing? However, since it was Zola's decision, we don't care. ”

"Later, Lord Zola should have discovered his subordinates and recognized the origin of his subordinates, so he ordered his subordinates to help salvage the things at the bottom of the lake, and keep it secret by the way."

"Ahh

"Don't make fun of me, adults. Since Mistress Zora knows my identity, he will definitely know that I am going to report the results of the investigation to you, so how can you care about this with me. ”

"So, Zola's purpose is to save people. As for the monsters, they're just doing me a favor. ”

"Huh? What do you mean, Grand Duke? ”

"Hehe, you're still too young, stand down and stay away. Beware of hurting you, this monster isn't dead! ”

"What!"

"Don't worry, since Zola didn't kill it on the spot, it means that this thing is not something she can deal with immediately, or rather, she can't dispose of it in a short time. So, she left it to me! ”

At this moment, the man in black was excited.

"Grand Duke, are you going to do it yourself?"

"yes, I haven't been active for a long time, and I don't know, has my skills regressed."

Hearing this, the man in black was so excited that his eyes moistened.

Oh my God, the Grand Duke is going to do it in front of him!

He was actually lucky enough to see the Grand Duke's swordsmanship!

No one knew that the grand duke in front of him, who seemed to have no heart and was angry, was a ninth-order golden swordsman! It's only half a step away from the holy level!

Because those who have seen the swordsmanship of the Grand Duke are either his henchmen or dead!

As a direct subordinate of the Grand Duke, the man in black has only heard rumors of the Grand Duke, and now that the Grand Duke wants to show his swordsmanship in front of him, doesn't it mean that he has been regarded as a confidant by the Grand Duke!

How could he not be excited!

"What are you doing standing stupidly, so that you don't hear it when you stand far away!"

"Ahhh The subordinates will go farther. ”

The man in black retreated to the edge of the forest and stood still.

The Grand Duke pursed his lips, a little dissatisfied.

"This distance is a bit of a hindrance to my performance. Forget it, no matter how far you go, you can't see it. ”

The Grand Duke slowly drew the sword from his waist.

It was a small thin sword, which was generally used by nobles for entertainment or to be worn as decoration.

After all, not every nobleman is a professional, but it does not prevent them from having a heart disguised as a strong person.

The sword on the Grand Duke's body, naturally, is not a decoration, although most people think that it is a decoration.

The Grand Duke with a foil in his hand exudes an oppressive aura.

Even the man in black who was more than ten meters away felt difficult to breathe.

The Grand Duke was calm and focused on the monster in front of him.

"Even if it is frozen in ice, it still exudes a rich flame energy on its body. It seems that there is an amazing power hidden in you. No wonder Zola wants to freeze you! ”

"However, you can't be a demon with a frozen monster."

"Foil James Ginseng!"

"Sword Dance, Hundred Flowers!"

The sword in Archduke James's hand turned into white light, shrouded in solid ice.

A crisp sound of "clanging" sounded, and the figure of the Grand Duke disappeared from the ground and appeared around the ice.

I saw that the figure of a grand duke appeared on the left and right sides of the ice, and even above.

The sword in the Grand Duke's hand turned into countless rays of light and fell on the ice.

"Whew! I'm tired, I'm old, I'm useless, and I can't stand it when I move. ”

As the figure of the Grand Duke reappeared directly in front of the ice, the man in black suddenly felt that the pressure on his body disappeared and his breathing became smoother.

"Wonderful, the Grand Duke's swordsmanship is really ......"

"Don't come here!"

The Grand Duke drank the man in black who wanted to step forward.

The man in black was stunned, not knowing why the Grand Duke suddenly changed his face.

"Let's go!" The voice of the Grand Duke rang in his ears

The man in black's eyes lit up, and the Grand Duke appeared beside him, grabbed his shoulders, and rushed to the lake with him.

"Boom! Bang! ”

There was a loud bang, accompanied by a bright fire, and a heat wave hit the face.

"Plop!"

The Grand Duke jumped into the lake with the man in black and plunged headlong into the bottom of the lake.

Call~

A wave of heat swept across the lake, almost hitting the other side of the lake.

"Zizi!"

A layer of water on the surface of the lake was evaporated by the heat, and the water of the lake dropped sharply.

After a while, the Grand Duke climbed into the case with a black face and a man in black who had drunk enough water.

In the distance, three embarrassed figures dressed in black and masked climbed up from the river.

They swam from the bottom of the lake to the river because they were salvaging.

When the explosion occurred, although the heat wave did not affect them, the tremors made their ears ring.

"I didn't expect that! Careless! ”

The Grand Duke looked at the entire forest that had been razed to the ground, and the lake where the water mark had dropped by more than half.

Originally, it was just a small lake of a few hundred meters, but because of this explosion, it directly turned into a large lake of thousands of meters.

However, if you want to fill the lake, I am afraid that the river water will pay attention to it for a long time!

"Not good! My private army! ”

Suddenly, the Grand Duke let out a scream of grief.

He remembered that his private army was defending himself nearby at the time of the explosion, but he was afraid that this time he would suffer heavy losses!

That's his private army! It's all a private army built by him out of his own pocket!

Except for Fisley, who left, I'm afraid everyone else will suffer!

I'm afraid there are only a few people who can survive this kind of explosion!

"Zola! Your mother pits me! ”
