I approached the gate of the palace, and the guard guarding me stopped me. My face darkened and I said, "Please tell me that Longbow-Wei of the Royal Academy of Advanced Magic wants to see your Majesty."
Hearing my name, all the guards on guard showed reverence. The leading guard immediately said respectfully: "Please wait a moment, I will report it immediately."
Soon, the guard came out and said: "Longbow Magister, your Majesty invites you."
I nodded and followed him into the palace. It was different from last time. Although there were still some burnt places that had not been repaired in time, the guards and magicians in the palace were guarding abnormally. strict.
Walking to the door of the inner palace, the guard shouted: "The Longbow Magister is here to see you."
King Keza personally welcomed me out. As soon as he saw me, he said happily: "Longgong, you are here. Come on, let's talk inside."
Entering the inner palace, I knelt on the ground with a plop and said: "The common people did not protect me well and almost caused His Majesty to be hurt. He deserves death."
Ke Zha's face changed and he said angrily: "Long Gong, what are you talking about? If you don't protect them well, then they will be even more useless. Thanks to you this time, I am about to make you the protector of the country. You guys. Everyone, please go down, I have something to talk about with the Longbow Magister."
Ke Zha waved away the guards, helped me up, looked at me approvingly and said, "Long Gong, you are truly a pillar of the country. If you hadn't used the forbidden curse this time, the consequences would have been disastrous."
I quickly bowed and said: "Your Majesty, this is what I should do, not to mention that the forbidden curse was only successful with the help of Teacher Zhen and me, plus some luck."
Keza said: "There is no one now. Don't call me Your Majesty. Call me Uncle Keza. It sounds more pleasant. In any case, you are a great contributor to the kingdom. You should not continue to study at the Advanced Magic Academy. Come to the palace from now on, and I will make you the deputy leader of the Royal Magic Corps and the protector of the country."
Seeing that he was in a good mood, I thought it was time to tell him the purpose of his trip. I knelt down on the ground again and said, "Uncle Keza, I don't want any other rewards. I only want one thing from you."
Ke Zha waved his hand and said: "How can I refuse the reward? If you don't ask me for that thing, I know what you want to say. Everything else is fine, but not this thing."
I said anxiously: "Uncle Keza, I..."
Keza sighed and said: "Long Gong, you have to know that she is a demon. This is not my problem alone. I have to give an explanation to the ministers and the people. Do you understand? Because Because of your reasons, I did not torture Muzi. I can only promise you to try to make her as comfortable as possible before execution."
When I heard the word "execution", my heart suddenly sank. I knew that under normal circumstances, Muzi would not be spared. I am afraid that all the people who came with her, except the stubborn old man, would be sent to heaven by me. , none of her tribesmen will save her.
I sighed: "In that case, Your Majesty the King, I will retire now. As for the titles of deputy head of the Royal Magician Corps and Protector of the Country, please forgive me that I cannot accept it. I am still more accustomed to the life of the academy."
I withdrew from the palace. I absolutely could not let Muzi die. I narrowed my eyes. I wanted to save her, and I had to go immediately. Otherwise, it would be difficult for Teacher Di and others to get involved.
After making up my mind, I walked to a place not far from the palace and started planning. The Heavenly Prison is behind the palace, where demons are imprisoned. It will definitely be heavily guarded, and it will definitely not be easy to get in. What can I do
After thinking for a long time, I couldn't find any good solution. I ran out of time and had to force my way through. I had to rush in at lightning speed to rescue Muzi.
I first looked around the prison and found that there were about 1,000 guards, of which magicians accounted for about one-tenth. With such strength, unless I went on a killing spree, it would be difficult for me to break in. Even if I did, Even if you go, you may not come out. No matter what the situation, nothing could change my determination to save Muzi. I first went to the market to buy some things, and then returned to the vicinity of the Tianlao.
I suddenly remembered the escape scroll that Teacher Di gave me. If I wrap everyone up with magic power, I should be able to teleport them out at once. With it, I have a lot more confidence. What I have to do now is to break into the sky prison.
I sat cross-legged on the ground and concentrated my magic power for the last time.
Two hours later, I appeared at the gate of Tianyao. As soon as I approached the gate, I was stopped by the guard. The guard asked, "Who doesn't know that this is the center of Tianlao?"
I coughed, raised the Staff of Socrates in my hand and said, "It's me, the deputy head of the Royal Magician Corps, the Protector of the Country, Longbow Wei."
When he heard that it was me, the guard immediately bowed and saluted: "I wonder what the protector of the country has to do here."
I said with a straight face: "I followed His Majesty's instructions to check on the situation of the two demon prisoners."
The guard said in embarrassment: "I don't know if you have His Majesty's handwriting. Just based on your words, we dare not let you in."
I shouted loudly: "Bold, don't you know who I am? You have delayed my business, do you still want to take your head?"
Just as the guard was about to explain, a magician walked out of the sky prison. Judging from the marks on his body, he had the strength of a great magician. He said, "What's going on? Why is it so noisy?"
When he came over and saw that it was me, he immediately smiled apologetically and said, "It turns out it's Master Longgong, you're here, what's the matter?"
I snorted coldly and said, "I want to see those two demon prisoners, but they won't let me in."
The magician said to the guards: "You are so brave. Don't you know that the two demon prisoners were captured by Lord Longgong? Without Lord Longgong to eliminate the invading assassins, we would all have died in the demon clan long ago. He is in the hands of the clan. I can’t guarantee that Lord Longgong will be fine. Hurry, let him go.” He thought to himself, this kid just saved the king’s life, he must be a popular person in front of the king, and he was appointed as the royal family. The deputy leader of the magician group was in charge of them and took this opportunity to fawn over him, which might lead to his rise to prominence in the future.
The guard immediately let me in in silence. The magician obviously wanted to curry favor with me, so he followed me and said, "Sir, the magic you used at that time was simply too powerful. I have never seen such powerful magic in my humble position. I am afraid that even Dean Zhen is not yours." Opponent."
