Billy, the man in black, instantly stood on end, held back the fear in his heart, and immediately ran towards the church not far away. As a result, the red-haired man flashed to his side between breaths.

Billy's eyes widened sharply, sensing obvious malice. The "scholar" only gave him a strong ability to understand and learn, and did not improve his physical strength.

Not to mention that the other party's sequence is obviously higher than him, Billy is already desperate.

For the red-haired man, Pol, watching the enemy's expression constantly switch between hope and despair makes him feel very happy, especially this game of cat and mouse, which makes him very proud.

As a "criminal" pathway sequence 8, the "arsonist" not only surpasses normal humans in all aspects of his physical qualities, but is also proficient in various hunting and fighting.

The "Arsonist" even gave him the ability to move short distances through flames instantly, how could he let a "scholar" with little combat power escape smoothly.

Pol felt that it was enough to play with him now, after all, it was too close to the Church of the God of Machines and Intelligence.

In an instant, a dark red dagger with a hilt appeared on Billy's chest, piercing Billy's heart accurately.

Weird and terrifying things happened directly.

I saw Billy's chest shrink sharply, and he coughed violently and silently, but he couldn't spit out anything. Then, as if the blood in his whole body was flowing to his heart, his chest kept rising, and the color of the hilt became more and more vivid, and in a matter of seconds, Billy's body quickly dried up, turning into a black corpse wrapped in clothes!

Chris, who was hiding in the wooden box, saw this terrifying scene, his heart beat violently, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly covered his mouth, not daring to make a sound.

At the same time, the red-haired man quickly found what he was looking for in Billy's arms, a bloody letter, and by the way, an extraordinary trait of an "Arcanist".

Looking at the bloody letter that the red-haired man pulled out, Chris became even more frightened, it was exactly the same as the letter in the dream.

His subconscious told him that the letter was important, especially to himself. But the strange murderous picture in front of him has made him quickly lack oxygen.

Chris breathed rapidly while trying to control the sound and frequency of his breathing, for fear of attracting the attention of the murderer.

Chris's body was tense and almost numb, unable to move.

Human beings are often more afraid of the unknown, let alone such strange things.

What's more, Chris knew that even if he rushed out now, he wouldn't be able to snatch the bloody letter from the weird red-haired man alive.

"Tsk, this place is not far from the church, and I am afraid that those 'punishers' who are like flies have noticed it, and it seems that they will not be able to wait for the extraordinary characteristics of this 'scholar' to be elucidated. ”

As he spoke, the red-haired man took the letter and quickly disappeared into the distance.

There was a brief silence in the air, and the street was empty except for a corpse lying on the ground.

Chris hid in the wooden box, and after seeing the red-haired man leave, he didn't dare to come out immediately for a while.

Then, his brown pupils gradually widened, and he saw that the dried corpse on the street was constantly decomposing, with a faint green light, and the body gradually disappeared, and finally only a dazzling stone remained, shining in the crimson moonlight.

Then, he seemed to hear what seemed to be movement in the church not far away.

So, Chris got out of the wooden box, grabbed the rock, ran quickly to the carriage on the side of the street, unlocked it, and drove away.

The action was completed in one go, and at the moment when the carriage disappeared, a member of the "Punisher" came to the scene.

It's a pity that there is no one on the scene except for the remnants of pale green spirituality.

So he urgently returned to the church to report.

At the same time, in the royal palace of the kingdom of Gulport, the capital of Adiran, located in the south of the Northern Continent.

Compared to the Count's Palace in Federenburg, the palace here is a hundred times more luxurious.

Just from the outside, the two gates are made of gold, with a huge crown on the golden gate, a round shield below, and elaborate and ornate decorations on both sides, symbolizing the king's invincible, invincible, and supreme authority.

The whole palace is resplendent and extremely gorgeous, accompanied by melodious music, and there are constant laughter and laughter in the palace.

Obviously, there was an extravagant dinner party going on inside at this time.

Outside the palace, a little girl about ten years old sat quietly on the steps, looking up at the starry sky with a crimson moon.

Looking at the large and small stars in the sky, the little girl's eyes were filled with purple light.

She was the king's favorite youngest daughter, Andrea Trenzoa, the jewel of the Trenzoya family.

She has silky golden curls tied up on her back, and a baby-fat chin, and a beautiful nose. A pair of golden eyes, large and bright, but glowing with a faint purple light, revealing a trace of bewitching.

The bodice on the upper body is a soft pink shirt with leg of mutton sleeves, a delicate bow at the collar, a corset in the middle, a light white lotus skirt embroidered with pink lace with skirt supports, dotted with white pearls, pink stockings just above the knee, and a pair of crystal pink crystal shoes underneath.

With a necklace inlaid with purple crystals around his neck, and a pink lace scarf tied with hair on his head, there are no other superfluous accessories, but he is more delicate and lovely.

Although the little princess is not very old, she is already an extraordinary person, and only few people know that she is now the "locksmith" path of sequence 8: "The Door Opener".

The potion recipe for the "Locksmith" sequence path has always been in the hands of the House of Trenzoya in the Kingdom of Goulpott, and is only available to members of the royal family, ancient nobles, and the military.

"Andrea, why are you sitting here, the banquet is not over yet, and the Queen Mother is looking for you everywhere. ”

Behind him, there was a tall and handsome man who looked a little like the little princess, with the same golden eyes and short blond hair that looked very energetic. A white shirt with a stand-up collar is topped by a black embroidered waistcoat and tuxedo, and at the feet are long polished leather boots.

It was Andrea's brother, the Grand Prince of Goulpott, Stuart Trenzoa.

"Oops, brother. Andrea stretched, the purple glint in her eyes disappeared in an instant, her hands stretched out to Stewart who came to her, and she pouted coquettishly: "Then you pick me up." ”

Stewart looked spoiled and helpless, and gently and gentlemanly hugged his sister, who was already not small.

I saw Andrea's hands and feet like an octopus, "snapping", sticking to the eldest prince's body, the movement was skillful and fast, as if it had happened many times.

"Andrea, you're not young anymore, let go of your brother and come down and stand up. A majestic female voice rang out:

"Stewart, don't get used to her, it's your home today. ”

Andrea looked up and saw her mother, the queen of the kingdom of Goolpott, appearing behind Stewart, dressed in full costume and makeup.

The golden doors of the palace were completely open, and behind them were many noble ladies and ladies who were dressed up for the banquet, drinking and laughing in groups.

Today was a blind date banquet specially held by the queen for Stewart, and almost all the noble ladies of Gouldport City were invited to come dressed up in exquisite makeup.

"Oh" Andrea unhurriedly let go of her hands and feet, pouting in Stewart's funny and doting eyes, obediently acting like a lady.

Glaring at his little daughter, "You two come in quickly, it's already 11 o'clock, and the banquet will end soon." The queen turned and walked into the main hall to conclude her speech for the feast.

As for the future princess, she already has several candidates, all of whom are top aristocratic ladies with good looks and temperament.

After seeing their queen mother leave, Andrea hugged her brother's arm again and said with a straight face: "My brother has a sister-in-law, but I can't forget your favorite sister." ”

Stewart pinched the other party's delicate nose dotingly, and said with a smile: "Naturally, yes, no one can replace Andrea in my heart." ”

Immediately, two dimples reappeared on Andrea's delicate cheeks, and she took her brother to the ball with her.
