Luo Ling and Li Tianrui prepared their magic, while Catalina secretly poured her fighting spirit into her whip. If the officer of the Royal Guard refused, Luo Ling and Li Tianrui would attack the soldiers, and Catalina would capture the thief and subdue the officer.

But after a moment, the officer did not insist, but bowed his head and saluted, saying: "Sir, I will open the city gate for you."

The officer turned around, waved for the soldiers to lay down their weapons, and then sent people to open the two gates.

"Are you so cowardly?" Li Tianrui was a little surprised.

"This is easy. These people follow the princess to get promoted and make money, not to fight us. As a high-level wizard, I don't really care about this small number of people." Luo Ling said as she jumped off the carriage, followed by Catalina.

Luo Ling leaned on the shaft of the cart and said to Li Tianrui, "You guys hurry up and leave. Katharina and I will go find Ye Zi!"

Li Tianrui said: "Take care of yourselves. Although I shouldn't say this, but sometimes, when things are impossible to do, saving yourself is the most important thing to do."

"I know my limits," Luo Ling replied.

After watching the three carriages leave, Luo Ling brought Catalina to him again under the strange gaze of the Royal Guards officer: "You just made a wise choice, allowing me to complete the princess's request. Now I want to requisition your two horses and go back to report to the princess."

The officer of the Royal Guard agreed readily this time. Since he had already let the people go, he would not offend the wizard for nothing. After bringing the horse over, he asked carefully, "Excuse me, sir, can you tell me how to address you?"

Luo Ling smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will mention your help to the princess, Mr. East Gate Guard."

Luo Ling and Katarina headed for the Royal Magic Tower. Halfway through, they saw magic light splashing out of the magic tower, and a rumbling sound spread across the sky. Many residents around were looking nervously in that direction from their windows or outside their doors.

"What's going on? They actually started fighting like this. I wonder who dares to attack the Royal Magic Tower." Katarina looked at the Royal Magic Tower from afar, her face full of confusion.

"First it was the Tower of Shining Wings, then the Tower of Refining Spirits... I'm afraid there was a strife in the Royal Magic Tower." Luo Ling said.

"So what should we do now? Should we go directly to the Tower of Shining Wings?"

"There is only one way to find her." Luo Ling pointed to the sky. "I will take care of the situation. It will be difficult for you to protect yourself in a battle like that. If I don't find her and she escapes successfully, she will definitely come to the safe house to find us. You just go to the safe house and wait."

The so-called safe house was actually an inconspicuous little house in the civilian area of the capital. Luo Ling instructed Katarina to buy this house, and then stored food in it and used it as a place of refuge. Because the situation was tense recently, all those who went out were informed of the location of this house.

After Catalina left, Luo Ling continued to move towards the Royal Magic Tower. When she was only about one kilometer away from the magic tower, she dismounted, cast invisibility on herself, and then flew into the sky.

At first, the capital city at night was not very bright from the sky. Even in the noble district, there were only a few scattered points of light under the black. However, today's capital city was particularly brilliant because of the fierce battle on the magic tower. Not only did the barrier that blocked the magic tower turn the outer wall of the magic tower blue, but also the windows of those high towers would often burst out with various colors of magic fluorescence. Such a scene reminded Luo Ling of the buildings with changing lights and shadows in the old metropolis at night.

However, the closer she got to the Royal Magic Tower, the more she felt the threat everywhere. First, there were more than 20 mages floating around the magic tower. They surrounded the magic towers from all directions. The magic props in their hands were emitting clear fluctuations. They were the real eyes used to detect invisible things. This prop could not only detect invisible substances, but also mark them with mental power, allowing the surrounding mages to sense their existence through mental power. Luo Ling knew that as long as she got a little closer to them, she would be discovered. Secondly, there were a large number of warriors holding crossbows on the ground, who were always ready to attack the enemies that appeared in the air. Luo Ling saw with her own eyes that a magician who flew out of the window was shot into a hedgehog by the warriors below.

Luo Ling was floating only four or five hundred meters away from the Glorious Wing Tower, but she couldn't think of a way to get close to the magic tower. Those who attacked the magic tower wanted to wipe out the entire Glorious Wing Tower. Although Luo Ling could now support more time to cast spells, it would still cause great harm to her body. She knew that if she couldn't find a way in a short time, she would not be able to persist to the end like these floating mages, and the pain in her body would make her retreat to the safe house.

However, just when she was at a loss, her extremely powerful and sharp mental power suddenly felt a slight fluctuation, as if some force had penetrated the space blockade barrier and broke through to the outside.

Coincidentally, this obscure wave was coming towards her, so she could sense something. Otherwise, she would have searched for a long time like those magicians outside but found nothing. Luo Ling quickly looked in the direction of the wave and found that three people, two big and one small, suddenly appeared on the ground. Their figures matched those of Ye Zi, Metatron and Javier.

Unfortunately, as long as there is teleportation, there is no lack of magic light effects. Although their landing point is about one kilometer outside the Royal Magic Tower, the magic light in the dark still attracted the attention of the attackers.

A wizard floating in the sky hurriedly flew to the ground and said to a man who looked like the leader of the knights: "Great Knight Philemon, I saw a magical flash in the southeast. Please send someone to investigate. It may be an enemy that has wandered outside the wizard tower."

"Could it be the magician who escaped through teleportation?" asked Philemon.

"Impossible. Our space-locking magic won't let anyone escape. That must be the magician who didn't return to the tower. We are currently sealing off the Royal Magic Tower and cannot spare any manpower. Please ask the Temple of Nature to solve the problem."

Then the wizard flew back to the sky and continued to participate in the siege of the magic tower. The knights on the ground didn't seem to care much about this matter. For them, capturing the two magic towers was more important than anything else. So he only dispatched a team of ten knights to rush in that direction.

Luo Ling did not dare to delay and hurriedly increased her flying speed, moving closer to Ye Zi.
