"Is there a situation, my lord?" At this time, Gerant, who had been patrolling outside the palace, also rushed to Byron's side.

"Yes, you noticed that dark shadow just now, right?" asked Byron.

"My lord, if you can escape the eyes of the royal guards, this guy is not simple. Geraint laughed.

"No fox, no matter how cunning, can escape the eyes of a hunter. Byron said, "Bixia is calling the ministers for dinner, but don't let this little thing disturb you, let's go and see what Lana has to discover." With that, Byron and Geraint walked out of the palace gates.

Not long after the two of them walked out of the door, two figures, a man and a woman, appeared in front of Byron.

"Hey, Lana, and Kevin, Lord is looking for you!" Jaylant shouted at the two.

"Lord Byron, did you notice a flash of darkness just now?" Lana asked Byron.

As the commander of the Golden Dragon Knights' Priest Force, Lana, known as the Holy Maiden of Compassion, is particularly sensitive to the aura of darkness. She cast a perceptual spell inside and outside the palace as Byron requested, and she could sense anything unusual inside and outside the palace as soon as it appeared. Byron's drunkenness in the palace garden was sensed by Lana, which was later the reason why Byron stopped drinking.

"That's right, just now when we were on patrol, we spotted a strange black shadow, but it quickly disappeared again. Byron said.

"Oh, Lord Byron, you're a little different today!" Lana said suddenly, "I seem to have drunk some wine, am I sensing this?"

"Lana, don't be kidding, let's hurry up and find out the danger you feel!" Kevin said on the side.

Kevin is the chaplain of the Golden Dragon Knights, who has a powerful healing technique that can restore everyone's physical strength and the ability to dispel dark magic.

"You mean to say that the danger is still in the palace?" asked Geraint, "how did it get under the noses of so many of our guards?"

"I don't think it's coming in from the outside. Lana put away her smile and said seriously, "Instead, it comes directly from inside the palace, and I sense that an evil aura is beginning to envelop here." ”

"How is it possible, hasn't the darkness disappeared for hundreds of years?How can there be a dark aura in the Holy Light Enchantment?, and it comes from the inside of the palace?"

"Geraint, I trust Lana's induction. Byron said, "Let's go, let's go back to the palace together." ”

Everyone returned to the inner courtyard of the palace together, and Lana cast a magic spell to detect darkness: "Great goddess of light, please help me shine to every corner of Shijie, so that darkness and evil cannot be hidden." ”

"How's it going?" asked Geraint.

"Come with me, that guy isn't very far away from us, and my magic is good enough to sense his bearings. With that, Lana waved for everyone to follow her.

At the same time, in the hall of the royal palace, the dinner for the 20th anniversary of the king's accession to the throne was still going on happily. The crowd tasted delicious food and wine and chatted with each other to the melodious sound of court music. As for the Knights, Schroeder was desperately eating the delicacies that had been placed in front of him, gulping down the wine that had been treasured by the king, and his mouth was still boasting about his prowess from time to time. From time to time, Roger snapped a few words with Schroeder and joked with the people around him, with only the occasional frown indicating that he seemed to have discovered something. Bai Ao did not smile as always, slowly tasting the wine inside with a wine glass, and suddenly a glimmer of light flashed in the corner of his eyes, and then he continued to drink the wine indifferently, with a touch of disdain on the corner of his mouth. Parsa was still so gloomy that he didn't want to say a few words to the others, but it was clear that he didn't seem at ease.

"Hey, I said Parsa, what's going on with you today, just have a drink, everyone is happy, don't always put on a look like everyone owes you money. Roger suddenly threw a chicken leg onto Parsa's table, startling Parsa.

"Roger, you don't mind my business, I'm a magician, unlike you muscular men, I have to pay attention to moderation. Whether it's food, alcohol, or women. Parsa calmed down and said to Roger.

"Haha, how boring that life is! You see how happy Miranda and I are, and we sail out to sea together from time to time, enjoying the beautiful haode life. Roger laughed.

"Oh, damn it, I always think something bad is going to happen tonight. Parsa muttered to herself as she watched the food on the plate in front of her, smashing and splashing all over because of the chicken leg Roger had thrown at her.

On the other side, Byron and the others, led by Lana, came to the garden in the palace.

"Lana, this is the garden. You see, in this beautiful night, and with that beautiful view, what makes you feel that danger comes from here?" said Geraint.

"No, I feel that the threat is around here, and I'm starting to get nervous because of our arrival. Lana said solemnly.

"Then I'll try it!" Kevin shook his head, "I'll cast the Holy Light and see where the danger is." Any dark creature will be hurt by it. ”

With that, Kevin began to pray, raising his staff and casting the Light in the middle of the garden.

Suddenly, in a bush, there was a rustling sound.

"Haha, the kids are finally out to play. Geraint said, quickly rushing towards the bushes.

"Geraint, you have to be careful, don't be careless. Lana shouted.

When Geraint rushed to the bushes and was about to use his sword to pick open the trees to see what was hidden inside, the objects in the bushes suddenly rushed out and attacked Geraint.

"Weird, this isn't an easy guy to deal with. Geraint shouted as she ducked.

As the first knight under Byron of the Golden Dragon Knights, Geraint is skilled after all. Even if he wasn't riding on a war horse, he still had a good reaction and dodged the monster's attack at the first time.

"This monster has just been injured by my magic, and is in a state of pain and anger, Geraint, you need to be careful. Kevin yelled at Geraint.

This monster's body is similar to that of a wild wolf, with black skin, and the most terrifying thing is that on the neck, there are actually three heads that resemble vicious dogs. Its six blood-red eyes stared fiercely at Geraint, sharp fangs baring out of its mouth, and saliva trickling from the corners of its mouth.

"Is this the legendary three-headed Cerberus, how could it be in the inner courtyard of the palace?" Kevin muttered to himself, "but judging by his size, he shouldn't be fully adult. ”

Geraint didn't hear what Kevin was saying clearly, and was fully absorbed in dealing with the enemy in front of him. Cerberus was in a state of great pain due to the Holy Light Technique, and all three of its heads were emitting black smoke. It seemed as if it had to bite the prey in front of it hard in order to vent its anger.

After all, Geraint is strong, and in the face of the attack of the three-headed Cerberus hatchling, he was not timid at all, and quickly found a flaw. After dodging three rounds of Cerberus's attacks in a row, he stabbed Cerberus through the chest with a single sword. The monster, which had been extremely fierce just now, suddenly fell to the ground, groaning in pain.

"Geraint, what did I usually warn you?" At this time, Byron walked to Geraint's side, stared at the Cerberus lying on the ground, and then swung his sword and cut off its three heads, "Don't let up because the enemy has fallen, as long as the enemy hasn't lost his breath, it is possible to die and struggle, and then give you a painful lesson." ”

"You have taught you a lesson, Lord Byron. Geraint shrugged her shoulders and said.

"Weishenme could have such a monster appear in the inner courtyard of the palace, and in the king's back garden?" Lana wondered.

"To be honest, this is the first time I've seen Cerberus in real life, and I always thought they would only appear in books. Kevin said.

"Generally speaking, only dark magic can summon such monsters. The kingdom's most proficient student of magic is probably Lord Parsa. Lana said, "Maybe we can ask him what he thinks, as the Chief Archmage of the Kingdom, I think he should know something." ”
