The moment the nobleman's words sounded, the eldest prince's heart was suddenly shocked.

He said that the person in the ice cube was somewhat familiar, but he didn't recognize it for a while.

It turned out to be the daughter of Duke Rivi!

Seeing the girl in front of him, the eldest prince remembered that Duke Revy had also been invited to this banquet.

However, the duke declined the invitation on the grounds that he had something important to do, and let his daughter come to the banquet instead of him.

However, Albanny only saw Erica at the beginning of the party, and then lost his impression.

Why didn't she see it for a while, and she was stuffed into the ice?

The eldest prince looked at Erica, who was sealed in the ice, and a wave of anxiety appeared on his face.

"We have to find a way to get her out!"

This is the Duke's daughter, and there is no room for error.

Fortunately, at this time, Claudia carefully observed Erica in the ice, and whispered to the eldest prince:

"Don't worry, she's fine."

After saying this, the eldest prince and the nobleman were all stunned.

The two men froze in place, looking at each other.

No, people are sealed in ice, can this be okay?

The eldest prince turned his gaze to the ice again, and saw that Erica's body seemed to still rise and fall slightly.

Breathing steadily, as if sleeping peacefully in the ice.

Looking at the scene in front of him, the eldest prince felt a little incredible.

Is this falling asleep in an ice cube?

Claudia's gaze also fell on the ice.

However, instead of Erica, she was focusing on the golden light that surrounded the ice.

She reached out and gently touched the ice, feeling the familiar repulsion.

It's exactly the same as what I felt with Lipoot.

Based on this alone, she could basically conclude who the girl in front of her was locked in the ice.

Claudia stared at the golden light, pondered for a moment, and then turned to ask the Grand Prince:

"What did Victor say to Lipoot just now?"

Hearing her words, the eldest prince gradually came back to his senses, stroked his chin, and began to recall:

"Queen Mother, ...... do you mean?"

Victor refers to Lipoot as Lipoot Nannad.

The surname Nannard is very popular among business people.

It was the last name of the president of the world's largest chamber of commerce, the Casidra Chamber of Commerce.

The eldest prince couldn't help but start thinking deeply about the meaning.

That is, Lipoot may have been associated with the Casidra Chamber of Commerce, which is an independent and powerful organization.

If Lipoot represents the Casidra Chamber of Commerce, it would be a bit scary.

For decades ago, Lipoot had already come to the empire as a merchant with the pseudonym 'Rayser'.

and established a financial empire belonging to the Lesser family in the empire.

And now, he even has a relationship with the Casidra Chamber of Commerce outside the empire.

In this way, Lipoot's wealth and power are not even weaker than those of the Empire.

However, such a person was easily killed by Victor?

The eldest prince instinctively didn't want to believe it.

But that's not what Claudia asked. She continued to say calmly:

"No, what I want to know is the next sentence Victor said."

Because at that time, Victor unleashed a terrifying fifth-order magic, and the explosion shook the air, so that Claudia could not hear his last words clearly.

"It seems to be Hull...... Or something? ”

The eldest prince can't remember clearly.

At the time, his attention was drawn to the thrilling magic, and he missed the conversation between Victor and Lipoot.

After all, that shocking magic was enough to attract the attention of everyone present.

The more Claudia thought about it, the more she felt that this half of the name felt somewhat familiar.

But after all, they didn't hear the full name clearly, so they didn't know the second half of the name.

The most urgent thing at the moment is to get Erica out of the ice.

The eldest prince looked at Erica in the ice, pondered for a moment, and said:

"This situation can only be rescued by Count Victor."

Fortunately, he also knew that Erica was a student of Victor.

Victor shouldn't have left it alone.

When the nobles on the side heard this, they reacted with great discernment, and hurriedly volunteered:

"I'll go find Mr. Victor."

It's just that before he could take a step, the familiar cold voice on the side slowly sounded:

"No need, I'm already here."

Everyone followed the sound and saw that the figure in a black trench coat was slowly approaching.

He held his staff in his hand, calmly, and walked in front of several people.

The moment he saw Victor, the eldest prince immediately relaxed.

Somehow, Victor's presence always brings peace of mind to many people.

It has to be said that this is the powerful influence of Victor.

"Mr. Victor, what the hell is going on?"

Victor lowered his head, his calm gaze falling on Erica in the ice, as if gazing deeply into her serene countenance.

Even the crow on his shoulder narrowed his dark and deep one-eye, and secretly communicated with Victor in his heart:

"Interesting handwriting, it seems that the thief god is not useless."

"Ah, yes."

Looking at this scene, Victor calmly muttered to himself:

"Hermes, I confess his treachery."

"It did cause me some minor troubles."

The eldest prince standing on the side heard Victor's self-talk, and couldn't help but ask curiously:

"Trouble? Count Victor, what trouble are you referring to? ”

"Need my help?"

But Claudia, who heard Victor next to her, suddenly widened her eyes hidden under her mask.

"Hull...... Moss? ”

She murmured softly, as if she had heard something terrible.

At this time, Victor put his hands in his pockets, turned to look in the direction where the elves were hiding, and said lightly:

"If nothing else, something should happen to the elves."

After hearing these words, the eldest prince felt even more confused.

If nothing else, there will be an accident?

As he pondered, the elves suddenly heard the sound of fluttering and falling to the ground from their hiding place.

The eldest prince was attracted by the sound, and when he looked up, he just saw several elves falling from the trees.

They curled up, their hands clutched tightly to their chests, their faces pained.

The elf on the side watched his companion fall, thinking that the other party was not standing firm.

The elf next to him saw his companion falling, and thought it was a stumbling fall.

But when he saw their painful appearances, he suddenly realized the seriousness of the situation, and his expression immediately became panicked.

They hurriedly jumped off the branches and gently stroked their companions' bodies:

"You...... What happened to you! ”

But when she saw the blood-colored thorns rising from her companion's neck, she kept climbing.

Suddenly frightened, his face turned pale, and he hurriedly stumbled back a few steps.

Blood-colored brambles travel across the skin like living lines.

Wrapping around the elf's neck and limbs, it was stretching towards her chest.

A sharp tingling and a strong feeling of suffocation enveloped the fallen elf's entire body.

The thorns stretched longer and longer, and the more she could feel the stinging pain in her heart, the pain sinking deep into her bone marrow.

The terrible screams echoed in the quiet land, attracting everyone's attention.

The eldest prince witnessed this scene, and shock burst into his puzzled eyes.

"This ...... What the hell is going on? ”

How could a good elf suddenly fall to the ground, and behave so painfully.

Almost at the same time, the witchers standing behind Claudia reacted.

Their eyes gradually turned red, staring at the thorn-covered elves.

At that moment, the demon hunters felt a familiar power in the body of that group of elves.

Like prey that should be hunted.

Only Claudia is different.

It was also a witcher, only her gaze was calmly on these elves.

Because of this power, she is very familiar with it.

"Jealous Demon ......"

It's just that this group of elves was not possessed by the demon of jealousy to become what they are now.

They were only attacked by the demon of jealousy who had escaped.

Each Primordial Demon has its own special characteristics.

The Greedy Demon can never satisfy his greed, and the Angry Demon will also be angry from time to time.

In the same way, the nature of the demon of jealousy is its incomparably jealous heart.

The Devil of Jealousy will attack those who stand out in all respects.

For example, beautiful, intelligent, or strong.

And the reason why it attacks such people is precisely because-

Jealous of the demons, these people will never be allowed to be more perfect than it.

And in the field, the most perfect creatures, self-evident.

Elves are known as the darlings of nature, and each of them is the most perfect individual born of nature.

So they were attacked by the demon of jealousy.

And at this time, Victor's voice suddenly sounded:

"Your Highness, do you know why elves are known as nature's darlings?"

Hearing this, the eldest prince turned his head to look at Victor and subconsciously responded:

"Because...... Once someone hurts the elf, then it is natural to punish him. ”

This is almost universally known.

But when the eldest prince answered this question, his eyes widened suddenly.

"They've been attacked by the demon of jealousy."

With Victor's explanation, at that moment, horror quickly spread over the face of the eldest prince.

"Quick, go and save them......"

"It's too late."

Claudia's voice sounded on the side, and at that moment, the eldest prince could only stare in astonishment, unable to watch the group of elves suffer.

The air in the Western Zhou seemed to be filled with tension, and the feeling of panic spread rapidly like a wave of air.

Boom ——!!!

Suddenly, there was a strong shock to the ground beneath his feet, and a dull rumbling sound spread almost throughout the courtyard.

Everyone felt a terrifying tremor coming from beneath their feet, and many were unsteady in the strong tremors.

My legs went limp, and I almost fell.

Even their vision became blurred.

A nobleman felt the shock and his face was full of doubts:

Just...... Was it an earthquake?

He looked around Xizhou in a panic and found a wall to lean on, which barely stabilized his figure.

At this point, all eyes were on Victor, hoping to get some comfort from him.

But Victor didn't explain the reason for the tremors, he just looked quietly in the direction of the elves, his eyes flashing dangerously.

"Let's go and evacuate all the inhabitants of the royal capital."

The eldest prince looked at Victor in astonishment, only to hear Victor's voice continue to sound:

"War is coming."
