……

"What...... Sieve? ”

"Wait!

This voice is - Matthew?

How did you end up here?

It can't be any sister who has become you, right? ”

in fishing nets.

Rhaegar struggled to turn his head sideways, trying to look at Matthew through the web.

Matthew was a little amused:

"It seems that your sister has left a deep shadow on you."

Between words.

The net continued to shrink, turning into a pair of net stockings wrapped around the sides of Rhaeggar's arms.

Rhaegar breathed a sigh of relief.

Matthew casually cut out a dagger, easily snapped the stockings, and lifted Rhaegar up from the ground.

He looked back at Margaret.

The female devil who fought her was nowhere to be found at this time, so it was no wonder that the other party's binding spell had failed.

"We've received some bad news, little Parton even thought you were dead, so I came to see you in time to confirm if it's time to carry out the lord handover ceremony in Rolling Stone."

In Rhaeggar's astonished gaze.

Matthew explained bliantly.

Rhaegar suddenly looked grateful.

Then the next second.

Most of that gratitude was gone.

"Zeller said that this plane trip can be reimbursed, you should be okay, right?"

Matthew said.

Rhaegar grunted twice in his throat:

"I think you should be more calm, you don't have to come and see me, and see, I'm not alive and kicking, right?"

Matthew just wanted to say something.

Margaret had returned to the two of them.

"She ran away."

"We'll need to clean up the battlefield quickly, and then get out of here, I guess in fifteen minutes at most, this place will be surrounded by the forces of the Blue tribe and the Blood Banner Kingdom."

That's all that is said and done.

She snapped her fingers, and a flash of white light revealed a goblin with a thief's eyebrows, a white backpack, and exaggerated gold earrings on either earlobe.

"Speed."

Margaret gave the order.

The goblin trotted all the way and began to touch the corpses on the battlefield.

It is extremely skillful and lightning-fast, groping and draining everything of value on a corpse almost every three seconds.

Matthew recognized the creature.

It's a treasure goblin.

Treasure Goblins are highly intelligent creatures that get their name from their penchant for collecting loot and always having good stuff in their backpacks.

They only look like goblins, and are essentially high-level elven creatures that have mastered a small amount of magic and space-related abilities.

In Aindor, there are many idle adventurers who dream that they will stumble into a treasure goblin and rise to prominence.

For mages, this creature is also great as a pet or a slave.

It's the first time Matthew has seen a living treasure goblin.

I have to admit it.

There is a specialization in the art industry, and this guy's efficiency in cleaning up the battlefield is much higher than that of a soldier.

But Matthew wasn't too embarrassed to touch the loot.

After all, people were killed by Margaret herself.

At most, he picked up something she didn't want.

"Are you interested in these corpses?"

Margaret noticed Matthew's gaze.

Matthew nodded:

"The corpses of demons, devils, and vampires are rare in the main material realm."

Margaret waved her hand generously:

"Then they're all yours!"

"Just let Blinken help you pretend!"

Matthew was slightly stunned:

"Blinken?"

Immediately he reacted:

"You call that treasure goblin Blinken?"

Margaret took out a large bag of magic biscuits and tore them open, chewing them on a rattle.

She replied vaguely:

"Yes, yes."

"It's not just Blinken, every ex-boyfriend can occupy a slave name with me—

I'm pretty affectionate, aren't I? ”

said.

Suddenly, a long whip condensed from the void and slammed into the emaciated back of the Treasure Goblin.

Syllable!

"Blinken, come back to this lord to get orders!"

The goblin trembled all over, but he didn't dare to slack off under his feet, and rushed to Matthew with a shrunk of the ground.

"Pack up all the corpses for him! If you miss one, you can lie down on your own. ”

Margaret commanded without question.

Under the flattering gaze of the treasure goblin.

Matthew handed the body bag to the other party.

Look at this treasure goblin working diligently.

Matthew couldn't help but be curious:

"How many ex-boyfriends do you have?"

Margaret chewed vigorously on the magic biscuits used to replenish her mana:

"Why do you ask this?"

"Do you want to join in?"

Matthew smiled dumbly.

When he turned back, Rhaegar had already taken care of his appearance, and he was no longer embarrassed.

"This is Rhaeggar, Lord of Rolling Stone, Prince of the Blood Banner Kingdom, my friend."

"This is Lady Margaret, a fifth-order mage, a rare opponent under the legend, and half of my teacher."

Matthew said quickly.

The two nodded to each other, exchanged a few words, and the treasure goblins over there cleaned up the battle.

Rhaegar took the initiative to say:

"I know a safer place, let's go there."

Matthew took the heavy body bag from Margaret's hand, and his heart was filled with the joy of a good harvest.

"But if we leave on foot, won't we be overtaken?"

He asked, a little worried.

Margaret waved her hand, and she pointed to a smoky biological airship not far away.

"That one can still be driven."

Matthew is embarrassed:

"Really?

But there are three of us.

And there are only two seats on the airship.

Or Rega ......

Are you wronged? ”

Rhaegar patted his chest:

"Do you want me to squeeze it?"

"It's okay."

"I can cooperate."

A minute later.

The smoky creature airship sailed abruptly away from the surface.

In the cabin.

Matthew and Margaret huddled together as before.

Rhaegar, on the other hand, has a safety rope tied around his waist.

Silently hung underneath the airship.

Fortunately, the trip didn't last long.

About twenty minutes later.

The creature airship flew straight into the sky.

Margaret carried Rhaegar in her left hand and Matthew in her right hand, and landed on the ground using flying skills as usual.

A dazed Rhaegar paused for a moment.

Finally, after a few moments, I found the safe spot I mentioned.

It was a spider tunnel underground.

After passing through a secret door.

The humid air is mixed with a thick smell of sulfur, which makes people feel a slight sourness on their faces.

Bang.

Several clusters of mage fire floated in the air.

Everything in the tunnels is revealed.

"Matthew, let's go inside and talk, I have something to tell you."

Rhaegar gives Matthew a color.

The two of them were just about to lift their feet and walk inside.

Margaret took a step out:

"It's okay, you guys just talk here, I'll go outside to check the situation, and there must be someone to watch."

said.

Her figure disappeared behind the secret door.

"You're a reasonable teacher."

Rhaegar praised.

Matthew nodded:

"Margaret is indeed different from the average Alliance mage."

"So you're interested in being an ex-boyfriend?"

Rhaegar smirked.

Apparently he also heard the origin of the name of the Hidden Treasure Goblin.

Matthew rolled his eyes:

"It's better to care about yourself first, how did it become like this when you said you would easily go home?"

Rhaegar sighed softly:

"It looks like my message to Zeller has been intercepted."

"Here's the thing, I was going to keep a low profile and suddenly return to red and black without informing anyone.

In fact, I did just that.

No one knew when I dive into Red and Black.

After him I came into contact with a couple of old fellows in the castle, all of whom were loyal to my father and were unlikely to leak secrets.

I learned the secrets behind Sive's awakening from them and from the castle's collection.

My fears came true.

Sif's awakening is not normal.

She is now in danger like never before! ”

Matthew said in a deep voice:

"What danger?"

Rhaegar said with a sad face:

"It is possible that she will fall into a long slumber because of the failure of her awakening, and this slumber is almost endless, and no one can say when the symptoms of slumber will disappear, and it is more likely that after a long time, she will never wake up again."

Matthew was stunned and said:

"Why is this happening?"

Rhaegar shook his head:

"It's my problem."

"Because of the environment she has been educated and exposed to since she was a child, she is a little too pure and kind."

"The devil is inherently evil, and the awakening of the devil's bloodline must also need some evil elements as an aid."

"But Seve doesn't have any of these things."

"She's so kind, maybe so good that she doesn't even have evil thoughts."

"In this case, the blood from the ancestors turned from a gift to a curse, a curse that frantically took the elements of sin from Sif, and her weak body could not support it at all, and in the end she could only avoid this temporarily by sleeping."

"But Shen Sleep can't fundamentally change this situation after all, she needs the power of evil!"

Matthew understood.

He said with a solemn face:

"So, if Seve goes to kill a few people and do a few bad things now, is it possible to satisfy the needs of the evil element?"

Rhaegar hesitated for a moment with a complicated expression, and then said uncertainly:

"Not necessarily, it's probably too late to do something evil, and Seve wouldn't do that."

"Don't look at her temper is always soft and weak, in fact, she is a very stubborn girl, if you let her kill people for her life now, she may not agree."

Matthew thought for a moment:

"Is it possible that she's just stubborn towards you?"

Rhaegar glared at him with bull's eyes.

Matthew hurriedly waved his hand:

"I'm just kidding to set the mood."

"But what does all this have to do with your current situation?"

Rhaegar explains:

"I knew there was a way to solve Sif's problem. In the Bloodbanner Clan's castle, there is a treasure called the Holy Grail of Sin that provides the sin element that Siv needs to awaken.

But I am not qualified to take this item, not even to borrow it.

The people of the Blood Banner family were on strict guard against it, and the guards nearby were so tight that not a single fly could fly over.

It's almost impossible to get it.

Forced into desperation.

I had no choice but to give it a go.

I left the castle and revealed my whereabouts, attracting the people of the Blood Banner Kingdom to come to me;

In order to be able to deal with them, I privately informed the people of the Blue tribe.

Anyway, the two of them are old enemies, and if they don't fight now, they will fight later.

I've been hiding from both sides to get the attention of most of Escana, most importantly to lure away the legendary red and black devil Lutithia.

So far, the plan is only half the battle, and there are indeed many Tifflins who have left the Red and Black Castle to come to me, but Lutithea has not appeared.

But it shouldn't be far off.

I guess after Lilith misses, she'll come looking for me!

At that time.

That's when Asma and Doreen, lurking in the depths of the castle, make a move! ”

Rhaegar whispered about her plan.

Matthew frowned:

"You're going to steal your own treasures?"

"Is your relationship really that bad?"

"I think they still value you a lot, can't you sacrifice your body and negotiate a loan plan with them?"

Rhaegar sighed:

"If only it were that simple, the Holy Grail of Sin is no ordinary treasure."

"It is a funerary object for the ancestors of the past generations, buried in the cemetery on the mountain behind the Red and Black Castle, and placed in the legendary sacrifice room of the Blood Banner Kingdom along with other treasures."

"Only members of the Blood Banner royal family after death are eligible to enter the cemetery, and any attempt to break in under any other circumstances will be regarded as a heinous crime!"

"I know them well, including the old retainers, and the old-fashioned ones are unlikely to promise me to let me go to the cemetery."

"So I had to find a way to sneak in on my own."

Matthew's face was also very solemn:

"But Asma and Doreen, the two knights, don't seem to be good at thieves."

Rhaegar said helplessly:

"I couldn't have done anything better in a hurry."

Matthew's brow furrowed.

He asked a few more detailed questions.

Rhaegar replied.

Finally.

Rhaegar suddenly asked:

"Your mentor, she looks like she can fight, can she deal with legends?"

Didn't wait for Matthew to answer.

Suddenly, a loud voice came from outside the secret door:

"Yes!"

Matthew looked in the direction of the secret door with some amusement:

"Are you eavesdropping?"

There was silence for a moment.

It was a long time before Margaret's voice came:

"No eavesdropping, it's your voice that is too loud......"

The two looked at each other.

They all walked towards the depths of the tunnel.

Rhaegar spoke:

"Anyway, I have to keep running around the border to get the attention of both sides, I have to attract Lutithia and then get out and return to the main material realm at the right time."

"Hopefully Asma and Doreen will succeed."

However, he was not finished speaking.

A blood-colored phantom quickly formed in front of Rhaegar, and a very gentle voice came from the phantom:

"Are you back?"

"My dearest brother, Rhaeggar?"

"These two servants of yours are really restless, they actually sneaked into the castle, don't they know that the realm of the legendary devil is very sensitive? Hee-hee-hee-hee......"

That's it.

Two screams rang out from the shadow of blood.

Rhaeggar's face turned white with a brush:

"It's broken! It's Asma and Doreen! ”

"That's right, it's them."

The gentle voice continued:

"Don't worry, they are the guardian knights registered by the Blood Banner Family, I won't hurt them, I just can't guarantee that after a long time, they will change their allegiance, after all, I am the most outstanding person of the Blood Banner Royal Family's generation."

"You wait for me in the same place, and when I take the contract from them, I will come to you immediately."

Say that.

The blood shadow vanished instantly.

Depression was written on Rhaeggar's face.

Immediately, this depression turned into tension:

"It's Lutia, she's lying, she's speeding towards me, damn it, she's mastering the mystery of the Blood Banner bloodline, she'll be sure of my location at any time!"

"Ten minutes at most, no, maybe seven, and she'll find here!"

Matthew proposed:

"Let's go back to the main material realm first, and then think about it in the long run."

Rhaegar shook his head quickly:

"No, Lutithia's departure from the castle now is an opportunity.

Asma and Doolin couldn't have confessed my plans, and she probably thought I might want to steal something from the castle.

But in fact the cemetery is on the hill behind the castle.

This is really an opportunity.

If we can get there now, the guards there must be very lax, and maybe a high-level invisibility technique will be able to sneak in.

Damn it!

If only there were teleportation scrolls! ”

Compared to Rhaeggar's excitement.

Matthew maintained absolute sanity:

"We are not enough to confront a legend head-on for the time being, even if you succeed in diverting the tiger from the mountain, even if we can reach your ancestor's cemetery, but the tomb is probably very dangerous, and the probability of finding the sacrifice safely is very slim."

Why didn't Rhaegar understand this?

He also smiled wryly and said:

"You're right, the most important thing is that we don't have a good thief on our team, so it seems that we have to return to Rolling Rock and ask Richard to help......"

And yet at this very moment.

Margaret's figure suddenly appeared between the two.

Her expression looked a little impatient:

"Who says you can't rob a tomb without a good thief?"

"I've got a lot of lockpicking spells and trap removal skills."

"If you can really get the Legend's attention and give me enough information about the cemetery, Matthew and I can do it for you!"

The two of them were startled by her, and involuntarily took a step back.

Matthew looked at Margaret in wonder:

"Didn't you say there wasn't eavesdropping?"

Margaret's face did not change color:

"It's true that there is no eavesdropping, but there is a crack in the door, and your voice is leaking from inside."

The two of them were just about to look at the secret door.

Margaret suddenly flicked her fist into the air.

There was a fist-sized hole in the secret door.

The wind poured in from the outside.

The two looked at each other, both convinced by Margaret's reasoning.

"How?"

"Need my help?"

Margaret smiled a smile that she thought was kind.

Rhaegar was torn apart.

Of course, he understands that there can be no goodwill without a reason in this world.

The reason why Margaret is willing to help is probably because she has a crush on the treasures in the sacrifice room!

"Can you promise me not to take too much?"

Rhaegar asked with difficulty:

"After all, it was my ancestor's funeral goods."

Margaret agreed:

"Of course, I can take none of them if you ask for them, after all, Matthew is a good friend of mine."

Rhaeggar's eyes lit up:

"Really?"

Margaret immediately said:

"Fake, I said that to make you feel better."

"Really, we have to get to the bottom of it!"

Rhaegar smiled bitterly.

Matthew looked at Margaret curiously:

"Can you really deal with Legends?"

Margaret proudly puffed up her flat chest:

"I'm 4.6 million!"

"I'm not really afraid of ordinary legends."

Matthew asked with interest:

"What about the topaz dragon we met last time?"

Margaret's little face fell:

"Don't mention him!"

"He's not an ordinary legend, besides, he still has that mushroom king and weird microbes by his side, which can be regarded as two and a half legends!"

In the tunnels.

Rhaegar paced back and forth.

Half a minute later.

He stomped his foot suddenly:

"Forget it, I'm out for Siv's sake!"

"Those old things that lie in the cemetery every day should understand me, right? Anyway, they are all dead, why do they leave so many funeral goods, it is better to benefit future generations. ”

Between words.

He handed Matthew a map, three glass bottles filled with blood, and an old amulet.

"This amulet will protect you from the undead guards in the cemetery;

These three vials of blood are mine, and they are about seven hours to go, and you can use them as you see fit;

This is a map of the Red and Black Castle, where you can find the location of the cemetery and the exact location between the sacrifices.

Remember, the treasure that Sif needs is something called the Holy Grail of Sin, make no mistake!

Also, don't even think about pulling up the corpses of my ancestors! ”

Rhaegar warns Matthew.

Matthew didn't want to go.

But hearing this.

His eyes suddenly lit up.

It seems that it is not impossible to take a trip......

"What does the Holy Grail of Sin look like? Can you describe it? ”

Matthew asked.

"You know it when you see it!"

"A treasure of this level will tell you its name, but you have to be careful not to be fooled by it, otherwise you may become its slave."

Rhaegar hurriedly said:

"I can feel Luetia getting so close to us, I must run now!"

"This spider tunnel leads to the hinterland of the Blood Banner Kingdom, and it will only take three hours at the earliest, and you will be able to reach Red and Black."

"But there are also many traps in this tunnel, you must be careful!"

said.

He patted Matthew on the shoulder, then walked briskly out of the secret door.

Soon after.

Rhaegar's breath vanished through the secret door.

"High-level escape scroll, your lord is really a rich man!"

"If he has a lot of this kind of high-end goods in his hands, maybe he can really deal with the legendary devil."

Margaret said with some envy.

"I just hope the next time we meet, he's not tied to the ground with nets."

Matthew shrugged.

At that moment, Margaret used a repair technique on the leaky secret door, and used means to clean up the traces of the entrance and exit of the tunnel.

The two of them walked quickly towards the depths of the tunnel.

With the passage of time.

The tension in Matthew's heart was gradually diluted, replaced by a slight apprehension.

It seems that the legendary devil is indeed chasing Rhaeggar.

"It's his sister anyway, I hope I can do it lightly."

Think of it.

Matthew couldn't help but quicken the pace of progress.

I didn't take a few steps.

Suddenly, he was grabbed by Margaret!

"There's a trap ahead!"

Margaret quickly dropped a trap detection spell.

For a moment, the surface in front of me, the walls on both sides, the ceiling overhead, and even the air between them were filled with crimson lines.

That's the sign that triggers the trap!

"So many traps?"

"It's a hassle to rule out, isn't it?"

Matthew proposed:

"Can you open through any door?"

But soon he found that the passage in front of him had a dark vision, and it seemed that the effect of darkness had been applied, and if he opened any door rashly, it was very likely that he would burrow into the wall and cause a tragedy.

"Don't use any doors, there are usually countermeasures against mages near this trap set."

Margaret explained as if in class:

"The golden mean to deal with traps is to find thieves."

"The worst way to do this is to use the trap elimination spells to dispel them one by one."

Matthew couldn't help but ask:

"Aren't you going to use a trap removal spell?"

Margaret shook her head confidently:

"Of course not."

"I have my own trap elimination technique, which is what I call the best method, and I will call it the Margaret Elimination Method!"

"You take ten steps back."

Matthew did so without knowing it.

The next second.

Margariste's body lit up with a colorful light.

First, the mana shield.

It's the ball of the force field again.

There are also Arrow Offset, Sword Invulnerability, Body of Steel, Damage Transfer, Physical Reflection, Mana Absorption, Fire Immunity, Acid Protection, ...... A whole bunch of protective spells.

That moment.

Matthew suddenly guessed what the Margaret Elimination meant!

The next second.

But Margaret walked into the trap with her head held high.

Bang bang bang.

A dense sound of bhooting sounded in the depths of the secret passage.

Countless huge fireballs erupted from the stone walls on both sides, followed by dozens of sharp steel spears piercing alternately, and a large number of crossbow arrows were shot at Margaret's body from all corners.

Ma Youfu strong acid arrows.

Serial lightning.

Curse of Weakness.

Poison Cloud.

The floor is collapsing.

The acid swells.

In an instant, countless spells erupted at the same moment.

Even if you're ten steps away.

Matthew also had to take out the Psalm of Guardianship and call up a protective spell to fend off the aftermath of the explosion of the trap trap.

And the place that is really bombarded indiscriminately by various forces.

has completely fallen into the maze of colorful colors.

Matthew couldn't see Margaret.

Ten minutes later.

When the dust settles.

Matthew saw Margaret with a relaxed expression at the end of the tunnel.

She pulled out the bolt that had been stuck in her temple.

Then he smiled and beckoned to Matthew:

"Look, aren't the traps cleared?"

"This is Margaret Elimination!"

"Have you learned?"
