On a roof outside the cage barrier, a young man in ordinary clothes was leaning against the wall, tossing a red crystal in his hand, quietly watching the fierce battle in the barrier.
This young man was none other than Lorenzo. Whether Luo Ling and his men launched an attack or the mages surrounded Luo Ling, he did not take any action and just watched quietly. However, when he saw Luo Ling summon a blue bird-shaped golem, he stood up from the wall and walked to the center of the roof.
Looking down from the sky, there was nothing special about the roof, but when Lorenzo threw the crystal in his hand and let it fall to a certain position on the roof, strong magical energy surged out from the crystal and spread out according to a pre-drawn formation. It took only a dozen seconds for a small formation with a diameter of less than one meter to appear in front of Lorenzo. The formation was not large in area, but very delicate, like layers of rings stacked together, rotating continuously.
Lorenzo looked at the high platform. Liu Pengfei approached the gallows, raised one foot and stopped above the magic circle, as if waiting for an opportunity.
Luo Ling's release of the Golem Bluebird was a signal to activate the formation and save that idiot. As long as that guy was not killed in the explosion and could grab the Golem's body before the enemies on the stage could react, he would be able to escape from danger.
However, Lorenzo had no interest in rescuing the Chinese, but he was very interested in cooperating with the Chinese to punish the despicable traitors in the magic tower. After choosing to cooperate with the Chinese, he sneaked into the market area with Xiao Chen last night. He combined the crystal grenades provided by Xiao Chen with the explosive formation he inherited from the Fu Tower, plus a large number of fire crystals, and finally used the concealment formation to hide the crystal magic fluctuations of these formations, forming a trap within a trap. Maybe its killing ability is limited, but it is more than enough to disrupt the enemy's arrangement.
When Queen Laura saw how hard these people were struggling, she thought that the Chinese had played all their cards and were about to be trapped. How naive she was.
When Lorenzo saw Liu Pengfei running out of the explosion range, he immediately stretched out his foot to step on the formation. As his toes landed, the formation began to rotate rapidly. At the same time, five formations of similar shape but much larger appeared at the four corners and the middle of the platform. A moment later, a huge explosion occurred at the location of those formations. The mages and warriors who were still in the defensive barrier and fighting against Luo Ling and others were instantly blown to pieces. Some people were even blown away directly.
The defensive barrier cast by the mages was torn into pieces by the force of the explosion, and the rhythm of their attacks was also disrupted by the explosion. The attacks of Gabriel and others passed through the damaged barrier and fell on their heads, making the scene a mess.
Lorenzo saw that the only area on the platform where Liu Pengfei was located was not affected by the explosion. The rest of the area was covered in flames and smoke. It seemed that the explosion was controlled very successfully.
He walked out of the rooftop, slowly fell to the ground, and quietly walked behind the mages who were maintaining the cage barrier on the periphery. He raised his hand, and a cold light shone on the backs of the mages. Their bodies gradually turned gray and finally turned into dust and drifted away. That was the magic bestowed by the God of Wisdom Temple: Moonlight.
———————
Just now, Liu Pengfei was provoking Queen Laura while walking quickly towards the gallows. Laura didn't understand his performance and was a little overwhelmed, which gave him several seconds to almost rush to the gallows.
Liu Pengfei even saw the blue bird in the sky. He knew it was Luo Ling's golem, and it must be here to save him. He could imagine that as long as there were explosions around him, he would have a chance to hold the golem and fly away.
On the other side, Queen Laura was ready to have someone catch this crazy guy, but just as she was about to call for help, she saw a magic circle lit up on the ground around her, and then a violent explosion occurred behind her. The shock wave accompanied by a wave of fire pushed her out, and flying wooden boards hit her like raindrops. Her black dress burst out with bursts of magical halos to offset these attacks, but the power of the explosion obviously exceeded the limit of the dress, and the protective magic circles on it suddenly lit up, and then went out in an instant, and finally the whole dress became fragmented.
She was knocked flying and fell only two steps away from Liu Pengfei, falling into a coma.
Liu Pengfei was stunned when he saw Queen Laura lying on the ground. She was lying on her side, unconscious. The hem of her dress had been torn, revealing a dagger tied to her calf. The people around her were either isolated by the smoke or knocked down by the explosion. At this moment, no matter what he did to the queen, no one could stop him. He looked up at the sky and saw a blue bird circling and falling towards him. As long as he took a step forward, pulled the dagger off the princess' leg and stabbed it into the woman's heart, he would kill her.
Liu Pengfei knew that if he went back like this, he would become a laughing stock for everyone. He foolishly surrendered to the princess, was abandoned by her, and finally was rescued by Luo Ling like a dog. This would be a failure and stain in his life. However, if he could kill an enemy leader who had just declared war on the Chinese and buy time and opportunities for the school, he would be a hero of the school.
At this moment, time seemed to slow down, and he seemed to hear a call: everything was simple, just walk over and kill her, without even worrying about wasting time to escape.
He walked towards the queen involuntarily, pulled out the dagger smoothly, clenched his hands, and stabbed the other's chest without hesitation.
The dagger stabbed into Laura's chest, but it only penetrated less than a centimeter and got stuck there. A burst of light burst out from the torn dress, and the dagger in Liu Pengfei's hand flew out. Liu Pengfei hurriedly picked up the dagger that fell two steps away, but when he turned around, he saw Laura who had already sat up.
Liu Pengfei was so scared that he broke into a cold sweat. Just then, a blue bird flew by, and he quickly jumped up and hung on the blue bird to escape. But he suddenly felt a huge force pulling his feet, and he was dragged down and fell to the ground.
"Laura!" Liu Pengfei grabbed the edge of the execution platform and wanted to jump down from a height of more than two meters, but Laura came up from behind, pressed her knee on his back, and used her fighting spirit to pull the noose around his neck.
With a snap, Liu Pengfei's neck broke.
The bluebird returned, clawing at Laura's head, but she turned her head to avoid it, leaving only a scratch on her shoulder. When Gabriel and the others saw what was happening here and attacked her, the protective barrier on the execution platform appeared again, wrapping her up on that side.
"You're courting death!" Luo Ling angrily threw the controller in her hand away, glanced at the barrier behind her that Lorenzo had opened up, and shouted, "Retreat!"
