Cold season.

Duchy of Loying.

A city on the western edge of the realm was silent.

It was still daylight, and it was supposed to be a lively time for the city, but at this moment, the whole city was quiet.

The gate under the castle tower was half-open and half-hidden, and there were no soldiers guarding it, and there were no pedestrians passing by, and looking through the half-open gate to the inside of the gate, it could be seen that the entire gate was also empty.

Boom boom...

In a short time, the sound of horses' hooves sounded from the avenue outside the city, and a cavalry team that looked like a hundred people rode towards this side, splashing dust all the way.

The leader of the team was a middle-aged general with a dignified and resolute face, and when he came to the city gate, he looked at the half-hidden but empty city gate, and his face immediately changed slightly, and then he waved his hand.

"Search!"

"Yes!"

Thundered!

The sound of the heavy gate being pushed open, and under the leadership of the middle-aged general, the team immediately entered the city, and then dispersed into multiple teams of five to ten people to scatter and search.

More than an hour later.

"Captain, I've searched the south of the city, but there's no one. ”

"Captain, the west of the city has also been searched, but there is no one. ”

"Captain, there is no one in the east of the city, not a single person in the whole city. ”

"Not only is there no one, but there are not even poultry and livestock in the whole city, and not even a living creature has been seen!"

“.........”

The scattered teams returned in turn, listening to the report, and the look on the face of the middle-aged general became more and more difficult to see.

The soldiers behind him were all unnatural, and even many of them were faintly pale, and there was a look of uneasiness in their eyes.

Because of this situation, they have found more than the first case during this period of time, before here, from the big city to the small township, they have found more than a dozen such situations, all of which are extinct in people and animals, and they don't know what is going on, as if overnight, all the creatures in the city have disappeared, not only living people, but also poultry and livestock can not be found.

It was attacked, but the whole city was clean, and there was no trace of a fight.

Thinking of the rumors and events in various places during this time, all the cavalry couldn't help but feel a sense of uneasiness in their hearts.

"Captain, what do we do now, this is already the fifteenth. ”

After all the searching team members returned, one of the guards couldn't help but look at the middle-aged general and asked.

The middle-aged general's face was also not good-looking when he heard this, if he knew what to do, it would not be like now, and the other ordinary soldiers behind him may not know the specific situation, but he is quite well-informed, and knows some unknown high-level news, and knows that there are already official mages in the high-level of the principality because of this matter, and it is not a problem that they can solve at all.

For them, the only thing they can do is to gather information, and their faces changed for a moment, and they immediately raised their hands again.

"Let's go, get out of here, and report the news. ”

"Yes!"

Boom Boom!

In an instant, the rumbling of horses' hooves sounded again, and the team came and went as fast as they could.

And almost as soon as the cavalry team left, two figures, one black and one white, appeared on the tower of the city, looking at the departing cavalry team from a distance.

The white figure is dressed in a white mage robe, with a kind and kind face, which gives people a kind and friendly old grandfather feeling, and the black figure is a black mage robe, looking like a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy with a rather delicate face, it is Gu Ao and Dulanke.

Although Durak is still on the wanted list of the Duchy of Luoying, with the energy of the Godslayer and their own strength, it is easy to avoid these wanted notices.

"Even the sharp armor light cavalry of the Principality of Luoying has been dispatched, it seems that this evil spirit incident is indeed not trivial, and the high-level leaders of the Principality of Luoying may not be able to sit still. ”

Looking at the cavalry team in the distance, Gu Ao slowly spoke.

The elite cavalry is the most elite cavalry team in the Principality of Luoying, and the main task on weekdays is to garrison the Principality of Luoying, and cooperate with the mage regiment of the Principality to form the strongest army of the Principality of Luoying, under normal circumstances, it is impossible to leave the Principality of Luoying, but now it appears here, obviously the incident of the evil spirit has made the Principality of Luoying to a very serious point, otherwise such a force will never appear here.

"That's good. ”

Durant spoke, with a look of happiness on his face, since he was wanted that night, he didn't have the slightest affection for the entire Duchy of Luoying.

Gu Ao knew in his heart that Durak was now about the situation of the Duchy of Luoying, so he didn't say much when he heard it, but turned his head to look at the empty city behind him and thought about it.

Although this evil spirit incident directly threatened only the Duchy of Luoying on the surface, Gu Ao did not dare to relax in the slightest, because he knew very well that the purpose of his and the others coming to Luoying City was to come to investigate the traces of the gods.

And this evil spirit incident made him a little suspicious if it might be related to the gods.

"Does the Archmage suspect that this evil spirit incident is related to evil spirits?"

Looking at Gu Ao's thoughtful appearance, Durak also guessed Gu Ao's thoughts a little, and couldn't help but speak.

Gu Ao nodded when he heard this, and spoke.

"As far as I know, 10,000 years ago, during the period of the gods, among the many gods, there was an evil god who was related to death and ruled the law of death, known as the god of death, he ruled death, and also created death, and everywhere he passed, it was said that the more death, the stronger his power became, and he was a very powerful and evil god among the gods in the period of the gods, and his followers also believed in death. ”

"This evil spirit incident in the Principality of Luoying, although it seems to be an evil spirit on the surface, but in fact, it is actually a continuous increase in deaths, and not only can the bodies of these living beings not be found after they die.

It's too weird that even death hasn't been born, and as far as I know, something similar has happened not only in the Duchy of Loying, but also in the neighboring Duchy of Sapphire and Principality of Boruk. ”

"I can feel that death is spreading on a large scale. ”

Durant was shocked when he heard this.

"The archmage is suspicious, and the god that the prophet said will be revived in the Duchy of Luo Ying is the god of death. ”

Gu Ao nodded with a serious face, revealing a solemn expression.

"If this is the case, then we must find Him before he returns from full recovery, otherwise not to mention just the Duchy of Loying, even the whole world, will be shrouded in death and turn into hell on earth. ”

................

Locking City.

Mage's Tower.

A group of core high-level leaders above the Grand Mage of the Principality of Luo Ying gathered together.

Messe Lo Ying sat down on the chair with a solemn face, looked at the crowd and asked.

"How's it going, did you find any useful news?"

The atmosphere was a little heavy, and Keno, Randolph, Simon and other archmages all had solemn expressions, and Keno shook his head when he heard this.

"No, I'm afraid that the enemy's strength has exceeded our original estimates, and it is very hidden, five official mages sent out have lost contact, and the enemy has been in the shadows, I suggest that all the remaining mages outside be recalled, and the matter will be discussed in the long run. ”

Randolph, Simon, Angelina and several other archmages next to him were shocked when they heard this.

"Five mages have already been missing?"

Several people couldn't help but change their faces, although they already knew that there was an accident with the mages sent out during this time, but they didn't expect that five of them had disappeared, you must know that every official mage is an extraordinary existence, and losing five of them at once is a big loss even for the entire Luoying Principality.

And the main thing is that until now they don't even know who the enemy is and what purpose they are, and that's the tricky.

The unknown is often the most terrifying.

"We can't go on like this, we have to do something, whatever means we use, we have to find out the enemy behind the scenes as soon as possible. ”

After a deep groan, Randolph spoke, and a fierce momentum erupted from his body.

"Since the enemy only dares to sneak in and do not dare to face us, it means that the enemy's strength does not exceed ours, so we do not need to be afraid of them at all, for us, the biggest problem is to find them, as long as we find them, then everything can be solved. ”

The crowd, who were still in a heavy mood, were shocked when they heard Randolph's words.

"Yes, Archmage Randolph has a point. ”

Messer Loe Ying also answered.

"Since the enemy only dares to secretly move and does not dare to face us, it means that the enemy's strength does not surpass us, as long as the enemy is found, then the matter can naturally be solved, so the next thing we have to do is to increase our efforts to find the enemy's traces. ”

"In addition, a few days ago, I have already made contact with the Grand Duke of Bolin of the Sapphire Principality, and learned that there are some similar evil events on the side of the Sapphire Principality, and the Grand Duke of Bolin has reached an alliance with me, and in half a month, the Sapphire Principality will send an envoy team to discuss the alliance. ”

Keno, Randolph and others were immediately shocked when they heard this, the Principality of Sapphire is a neighbor of the Principality of Luoying, the strength is equivalent to the Principality of Luoying, and the lord of the country is also a powerful legendary mage, it is Boleyn in the mouth of Messer Luoying, if there is such a strong ally at this time, it is undoubtedly good news for them, and it is also a booster.

"If the Principality of Sapphire unites, with the strength of our two countries, then I think this matter, no matter what the enemy is, will eventually be annihilated. ”

Kino smiled and said, knowing that Messe Loying summoned them today to announce the alliance with the Sapphire Principality.

Everyone was also relieved, and their faces showed a hint of relief and joy.

At the same time, after spending several days of leisure time in the off-campus manor, in Lin Tianqi's mind, the system prompt that had previously entered the upgraded state finally sounded.

"Ding, the system upgrade is complete, please check it confidently. ”
