Magic Apprentice

Chapter 80: connection

Views:

It is also a desert, but it is far less harsh than the northern desert with its windy and sandy sky.

For Her Royal Highness the Princess and Kate, the only thing they need to worry about is how to pass the Mercalus Fortress.

Although they didn't know what was happening outside, they were absolutely certain that major changes had occurred in the Kaoqi Kingdom.

Although the recent search was still extremely strict, members of the Sophien embassy clearly felt that although the investigation was strict, it was like a large network of omissions, full of loopholes.

Apparently, the brilliant commander who had chased them until they had no way to escape and was almost in dire straits a few days ago has been transferred.

The members of the Sophien embassy had already guessed that the terrifying and thoughtful commander must be Hegeero himself.

But now there was obviously something that prevented him from looking away.

Although the Kaoqi Corps without Hegeero still has a large and powerful body, it seems like it has lost its soul, and it is confused and confused all day long and does not know what it is doing.

Because of this, so many people from Sophien's embassy were able to escape to Utiv, a small town on the southwest border of the Kaoqi Kingdom in just a few days.

It is only a few dozen kilometers away from the border town of Caladan.

In Caladan, there should be a magician named Shimados who descended from Hades to assist him.

But now there is one thing that is quite troublesome.

Her Royal Highness the Princess and Kate didn't know how to get in touch with Magician Mados.

At first, Magician Mados contacted Enleco through the magical dream-returning technique.

The reason why this is possible is because Enleco holds the soul ring in his hand.

This powerful weapon can easily capture extremely subtle soul fluctuations, and Hades' divine warriors have the ability to control free soul fluctuations.

Now that Enleco is not here, things are much more troublesome.

Because of this, the members of the Sophien embassy had no choice but to use an extremely secret place near this town as a temporary place to stay.

Before taking any further action, they must have a plan of action in mind.

Utif is a small town with a population of less than three thousand.

Because of its proximity to Caladan and the river next to it, the town is quite prosperous.

The town is full of shops and hotels.

However, Kate and the others would never dare to enter the town. Now every town in the Kaoqi Kingdom has strict inspections.

You must verify your identity when entering or exiting the town.

Although all the members of Sophien's embassy can speak fluent Kaoqi, they still have a hint of the accent inherent to foreigners in their speech.

The only ones who will not be discovered are Bertina and Jerry.

Jerry is a language expert and extremely good at imitation. Therefore, he can speak authentic Kaochi with a Vydsk accent.

As for Bertina, it's because she has stayed in Strayer County for a long time. And there are always countless people there who are proud to talk to her.

Therefore, when she was in Chengdaville, she had few opportunities to remain silent.

Over time, she acquired that thick Strayer County accent.

But because Bertina's goal is too obvious. What's more, the Kaoqi Kingdom has strange customs. Therefore, she is not suitable for publicity.

All the detective work was done by Jerry. This may be the most useful time he has been put to use since the beginning of the magic apprentice trial.

Other Sophien embassy staff were huddled in a temporary warehouse by the river.

It was originally a place used to store wood shipped from upstream in spring and summer.

By now, this temporary warehouse has long been idle.

Since there were no valuable goods, there was not even a guard arranged.

This warehouse is undoubtedly an extremely comfortable palace for those Sophien embassy staff who have been running around for several days and can only sleep in the open air. At most, they have to spend one night in a cold and damp cave.

However, in order not to make the patrolling guards suspicious, Kate opened another entrance and exit next to the warehouse.

The entrance and exit are hidden underwater. Unless you have the help of Bertina, Kate or Her Royal Highness, you can only swim in if you want to get in and out of the warehouse.

Early in the morning, Jerry dressed up as a boy from a passing merchant and went to the liquor store in the city to inquire about information.

But apart from that, the most important thing is to find as much as possible the whereabouts of the Sophien Kingdom's contact personnel related to the Mados magician.

But nothing was gained early in the morning.

Jerry returned to his hiding place dejectedly.

Seeing no one around, Jerry tapped lightly on the wooden wall of the warehouse a few times.

Immediately a huge funnel-like whirlpool appeared above the river.

A bluestone stained with water stains was exposed at the bottom of the whirlpool.

Jerry jumped in.

The surrounding river water was frozen by magical magic, like a wall made of pure crystals.

Seeing this scene, Jerry secretly admired that Bertina's ability to manipulate water magic was indeed getting stronger and stronger.

When the magic apprentice trial had just begun, she could only cast a very limited number of water magics.

And now just in terms of the intensity of magic power, Bertina not only far surpasses Her Royal Highness the Princess, but is even inferior to Kate.

If the princess and Kate were left to do this work, the river would never have receded so cleanly.

Think about the time when I, Kate, and Bertina learned magic at almost the same time.

Except that Kate studies very hard, she and Bertina are pretty much the same.

And among the three of them, my magic qualifications can be said to be the best.

He had learned the floating technique and wind wing technique very early on, and at that time, he was really proud of it.

Although Kate works hard, due to her talent, even though she works extremely hard, her strength is not much different from Bertina's.

But now, Kate's strength is completely different from his.

At most, he is just a qualified magic apprentice. If he wants to pass the apprentice magician test, he may have to rely on other factors, such as donating funds or asking others to intercede for his help.

Kate is completely different. His strength is obvious to all.

After the Victory Day memorial ceremony, he learned more exquisite martial arts from the knights of the Holy Knights who he had a good relationship with, and his unique magic martial arts gave him extraordinary strength.

Now, he may still not be able to deal with a paladin like Hegeiro.

But except for the extremely limited number of paladins, others are no match for him at all.

If his opponent is an ordinary magician, the scene of the duel between Old Wolf and Teacher Chris in the magic forest will happen again.

Ordinary magicians would never even think of attacking Kate.

As for Bertina, she is already the recognized successor to the Pope.

This is something that is unimaginable for others.

For her, it is a natural and rightful place.

Even the two archbishops who had great hopes of becoming the next pope did not feel the slightest surprise or dissatisfaction.

Creating holy water of life may not be a big deal, but being able to unify religion into one is simply a miracle.

The more Jerry thought about it, the more unbelievable it became that the well-known future Pope was once a little girl who had no ambitions and was confused all day long.

And at that time, her strength was the worst among the three.

Of course, there is no one Jerry wants to think of more than Enleco.

In his opinion, Enleco has gone beyond the incredible. Like Teacher Chris, he has become a monster living in this world.

The extremely powerful forbidden spell mage, the wise and omnipotent wise man, and the builder of artifacts.

This series of famous names has already made Jerry dumbfounded.

Enleco didn't know how to cast magic at all, and his physique was not suitable for becoming a magician.

Even when he was with Teacher Chris, he only knew some knowledge about magic circles.

But since his mission, this guy's strength has soared as quickly as his reputation.

According to Joe's opinion, this guy may now be almost as powerful as Teacher Chris, a crazy woman.

At least Kobe Leo, this stupid bear, is no longer the most powerful magician in the world.

In Stryer County, the forbidden magic performed by Enleco had already alarmed the whole world.

That kind of forbidden magic can be used to destroy a country.

Enleco's changes are difficult for Jerry, who knows the details, to believe it anyway.

But he had to believe it all.

What's more, he also knows another secret. He saw this secret with his own eyes, otherwise it would be even more impossible for him to believe it.

Enleco, this strange guy, can actually be dressed up as a perfect beauty.

Not only is there no trace of dressing up at all.

Moreover, the Miss Fenacia she transformed into was actually infinitely charming and radiant.

The uproar caused by that appearance was enough for the Kingdom of Kaochi and the Kingdom of Sophie to launch an all-out war.

Jerry felt weak whenever he thought of Enleco. This difficult escape was entirely caused by this guy.

But this is another secret that absolutely cannot be revealed.

However, Jerry is very doubtful if he tells others that their country-protecting goddess Miss Fenasia and Sophie Kingdom's forbidden spell mage Enleko are the same person.

How many people would believe this.

I'm afraid there are absolutely not many people who believe it.

Even some people who know this secret try their best to forget it all.

His Royal Highness the Prince was such a person, and the image of Miss Fenacia gave him too deep a stimulation.

So much so that now he doesn't look down on any of the palace maids.

Shaking his head to drive out the infinite scourge Enleco from his mind, Jerry began to think about how to report his findings to Her Royal Highness the Princess.

Through a low tunnel, Jerry entered the warehouse.

The warehouse was divided into two parts. The part at the back near the door had more light, so it became the temporary palace of Her Royal Highness.

And behind it is where other people live.

In this small and crowded warehouse, the members of the Sophien Kingdom's embassy still maintained stubborn royal etiquette.

Seeing these stiff-minded royal knights, Jerry shook his head helplessly.

However, his actions immediately led others to mistakenly believe that the trip was fruitless.

"Jerry, thank you for your hard work. It is not an easy thing to get in touch with Magician Mados." Kate comforted.

"Is there any news outside?" Bertina asked.

"The blockade is still very severe, and there are patrolling cavalry everywhere. All passing merchants are no longer able to travel freely throughout the Kaoqi Kingdom. The supply of dry food has also been distributed according to fixed rations. I really have no way to get food. And I'm also worried about whether Magister Mados and the others are still in Caladan. They must not be able to live there either," Jerry said.

"What's going on?" Kate asked in confusion: "Why is the blockade suddenly strengthened?"

"Presumably now there is a commander who is not very good, so he can only find our traces by strengthening the blockade." Her Royal Highness expressed her opinion.

"This doesn't do much harm to us. If we weren't trying to get in touch with the Mashik magician, we could easily bypass these towns," Kate said.

"Maybe we don't have to wait for Mashik Magician anymore, and escaping back to Sophie Kingdom as soon as possible is the most important thing for us now." Jerry said. In fact, he had been thinking about this issue on the way back.

"Without Magus Mados, how do you plan to pass the Mercalus Fortress? Are you planning to cross the Valx Mountains?" Kate immediately pointed out the major flaw in Jerry's plan.

"What's more, even after crossing the Valquez Mountains, there is still a large desert in front of us. Have you forgotten how long it took us to walk through that desert when we came? Although we stepped up when we went back You are on your way, but it is almost impossible to reach a safe place in a few days. The Kaoqi Kingdom has gathered heavy troops in Mercalus Fortress and is also equipped with many magicians. You have the ability to be like Enleco Can you resist all the pursuers like that?" Bertina said unceremoniously. At this time, she looked down upon Jerry, who always had a strong voice.

"That's true. It's just that it's more dangerous to stay here. Don't forget that we discussed at the beginning that the safest way is to never stay in the same place for more than one day. Now the two days are almost here. We may be discovered. There’s a lot more sex,” Jerry said.

"Tell me, where should we go? Now we have no choice. We ran away all the way, so it didn't matter if we found a hiding place every day. But the most important thing now is to find the magician Mados. Wherever we go Wandering around will only reveal our whereabouts. And this place is a pretty good hiding place. It may not be easy to find a safer place." Kate explained.

"What's more, it's close to a water source. There are so many of us here and we have enough dry food, but it's impossible to carry a lot of drinking water. If we give up here, where can we find a more suitable hiding place? Don't forget that this is a desert. There are not many water sources on the edge." Jack also began to teach his brother a lesson.

"Okay, okay, I'm being stupid. But please think of an effective way for us to get in touch with the Mashike magician." Jerry saw that everyone couldn't do it, and quickly found a step to come down to avoid being besieged by everyone. .

"Still using the old method, this time I will go to Lakadan to show my face and create a disturbance to attract the attention of the Mashik magician." Kate suggested.

"This is too dangerous. If anyone from Drakes or Trode is here, wouldn't you become a target? Kate, although you are very strong, you still want to deal with Drakes and Trode. Virtue must be impossible." Her Royal Highness the Princess stopped.

Hearing the words of Her Royal Highness the Princess, Kate seemed to be able to clearly feel the trace of concern contained in them.

Based on these, he would not hesitate to break his body to pieces.

"Your Highness Princess, don't worry, I will never act recklessly. And even if I encounter those two super magicians, I still have the heart of reason in my hands. Last night, I already filled the heart of reason with magic power. "Kate has obviously made up her mind and is willing to sacrifice everything for her beloved Princess.

"No, that's too dangerous. Even if you want to attract others' attention, there is no need for you to show up. It was very dangerous last time. If it weren't for our good luck that the magician was transferred away the day before, maybe you would have been injured. I I won't let you take risks easily." Her Royal Highness the Princess said firmly.

"What's more, you may not be able to guarantee that you will be able to find Mashik Magician. If Mashik Magician has left or has not found you, then your risk will seem too unworthy. And this possibility It's quite big." Her Royal Highness the Princess revealed the most worrying thing in her heart.

"Then we create a magic firework over Caladan and tell Mashik Magician that we want to get in touch with him. I think Mashik Magician is definitely an elder full of wisdom, and he will naturally arrange for people we are familiar with Come and meet us. At the same time, he will definitely be guarding the side, so that even if Drex and Trode are present, they will not dare to act rashly. After all, Magician Mados is a super magician with the same strength as them ." Jerry's brain suddenly became easier to use.

Everyone didn't have much doubt about Jerry's suggestion.

Secretly setting off a magic firework is not an adventure full of risks.

And the magical fireworks are enough to attract everyone's attention.

"I remember the magical fireworks I saw at Fenasia's engagement ceremony in Vedsk. They were indeed colorful and dazzling. And to reach that level, it was simply easy with Kate's strength. How about we spell it out with fireworks and write on it, 'The envoy of the Kingdom of Sophie is grateful for the warm hospitality of His Majesty the Emperor of the Kingdom of Kaoqi. On the occasion of bidding farewell, we hereby express our sincere gratitude.'" Jerry said proudly: "In this way, the Kaoqi pursuers will be confused, so that they don't know whether we have escaped the Kaoqi Kingdom."

Although the others had no intention of getting involved in Jerry's idea that was almost a prank. However, if you think about it carefully, it may be a good way to convey the message.

After seeing such a line of text, it will surely spread in the streets of Caladan soon. So even if Magician Mados didn't see that scene with his own eyes, he could still know what happened from the rumors of others.

"Kate, you should be able to do this. I believe you." Jerry said enthusiastically.

As soon as he thought about the sight of Carradine going to the basket and seeing such a line of words, Jerry couldn't restrain his joy.

"But how should Kate sneak into Caladan? The interrogation at the city gate is extremely strict, and flying magic cannot be used." Bertina asked worriedly.

"Brother, I might have to trouble you to make a trip for this matter." Jack said immediately.

If he was asked to stand far away and watch the fun, Jerry might still agree. But it is almost impossible for him to take risks.

"Brother, I really want to do this for Kate. However, you know that my strength is not enough for me to do this task. I don't understand fire magic." Jerry quickly defended.

Although he knew that his brother was timid and cowardly, and what he said just now was just an excuse, Jack couldn't find a reason to deny it.

As Jerry said, it is absolutely impossible to create magic fireworks with his ability.

This guy's strength was already terrible.

"Jerry, you are familiar with the outside world. Is there any way for me to enter Lakadan?" Kate asked.

"Unless you know teleportation magic like Teacher Chris and Enleco. Otherwise, I can't think of a way for you to enter the city. You can never imagine how detailed the current investigation is. Before entering the city, not only must you check in detail When asking about your origin and identity, you also need to ask who you know in the city? Where does that person live? What are the characteristics of that place? You also need to check whether there is makeup on the face and whether the hair has been dyed. I was wrong twice. Every flaw was found," Jerry said.

"Yeah, Kate doesn't know your tricks of changing faces at will. His bounty portraits are hung everywhere on the city gate, and he can't get through at all." Bertina said with a frown.

These words were also directed at herself. Because among those bounty portraits, her portrait is equally detailed and lifelike, and even Jack's portrait is very similar.

Only Jerry had returned to the Kingdom of Sophie because he had arrived so early. There were not many Kaoqi people who had an impression of him, so the portrait he painted was very different from the person he was.

"What a face-changing trick, that's a standard smile. My dad taught me. If you don't believe me, ask my brother, he can do it too," Jerry argued.

However, his brother was obviously reluctant to mention the birth of a wealthy businessman in their family.

That kind of twisted and flattering smile can really make the face completely distorted. And this kind of smile is obviously not too unfamiliar to the guards, because all the passing merchants have this look.

But Jack doubted whether he could still show that disgusting and undignified smile after being a royal knight for so many years.

As a descendant of the knight family, Kate is even less likely to learn this skill.

"I just have to act according to the situation. If there is really no other way, I will force my way in. As long as the signal is given, I can escape unscathed." Kate said confidently.

Hearing what Kate said, the others had no choice but to fall silent. Now this was the only way.

If they don't get in touch with the Mados magician again, their situation will become even more dangerous.

After packing up all the things, Kate walked out of the warehouse without looking back. The river parted around him.

As he nearly emerged from the water, Kate looked around.

When he was sure there was no one outside, he cautiously stepped ashore.

It was still dozens of kilometers away from here to Caladan, but Kate used the land gliding technique and slid forward as fast as on smooth and flat ice.

If it weren't for the fear of being discovered by those magicians who were always watching, Kate could move even faster.

A journey of dozens of kilometers is nothing to Kate.

It only took less than an hour to arrive at the westernmost town of the Kaoqi Kingdom.

At first, the envoys stayed here for one day when they came.

So Kate knows something about the city.

Lakadan is an open city without walls.

There was no city here originally, it was just a market where merchants from all walks of life gathered.

Because there has never been a trace of the desert bandits group in the desert close to the Kaoqi Kingdom. Moreover, this place is very close to Mercalus Fortress.

Therefore, more and more families of soldiers stationed in Mercalus Fortress moved to this small temporary market.

Initially, Rakkadan was just a small town with a population of less than a thousand.

However, with the smooth flow of trade routes, this unique place became prosperous.

During the peak period of Lakadan's growth, there was even a situation where the city expanded three times in one year.

Because of this, Lakadan had little means to build formal walls.

No one could predict when that city wall would become an obstacle to urban development.

Because of this, Caladan did not have any obstacles to isolate access except for two rings of city walls in the center that had been built long ago and were not later demolished.

However, this does not mean that Caladan is more accessible than other places.

On the contrary, since Lakadan became a prosperous city, the Kaoqi Kingdom turned it into an important town for transporting supplies and supplies to Mekarus.

The city center, built like a fortress, not only has large warehouses, blacksmith shops, weapons workshops, and armor workshops, but also the Magic Association and the Military God Church are located there.

The periphery of Rakkadan is shrouded in a special magic circle. That circle of magic can emit a wall of scorching fire to block the enemy's attack.

It is also easy to use it to block Rakkadan.

Kate was convinced that as long as he touched the invisible barrier a little, the magicians in the city would be able to detect him.

Therefore, the only way to enter Lakadan is through those closely guarded gates.

Far away, Kate stopped.

He looked quietly at the city gate in the distance that could be called a sentinel at most.

There was a long queue at the city gate. They were all people eager to enter the city, and the surrounding circle was filled with carriages.

Soldiers went one after another, checking whether there were any suspicious items hidden on the carriages.

Two rows of heavy armored infantry held sharp dragon rifles in their hands, always watching the passers-by.

There was also a group of heavily armored cavalry, fully armed and energetic, standing on both sides of the city gate.

Although she couldn't see it, Kate guessed that there must be a magician resting in the house behind the city gate.

Lakadan, who is close to Mekarus Fortress, can easily find enough guard strength.

Kate would never dare to make a mistake, although he was sure that he could easily eliminate those guards. But if a powerful character is introduced, it will be troublesome.

This journey is full of thrilling escape journeys. Kate is even more aware that there is still a gap between her own strength and those high-level magicians.

Not to mention the existence of those two super magicians.

Sometimes, Kate is indeed extremely envious of Enleco.

I envy this guy's tyrannical strength.

Kate often guesses one thing, if Enleco and Teacher Chris fight, who will win the final victory.

But it is certain that the old wolf is no longer Enleco's opponent in all likelihood.

If Enleco were here, I'm afraid he would be able to pass through Mercalus Fortress with great arrogance.

Kate believed that the guards at Mercalus Fortress would never have the guts to stop Enleco's actions.

Because they were all people who had witnessed that earth-shattering explosion.

It's a pity that her power has not reached that level after all, and Kate is thinking hard about how to enter.

Of course, he had also thought about launching magical fireworks outside the city.

However, Rakkadan is not a small city. It has a very wide area and the surrounding buildings are relatively sparse.

If it were launched from outside the city, it would probably only be visible to a very small number of people.

Now that I'm here, I have to find a way to get to a place close to the city center.

Suddenly, Kate saw a military carriage slowly driving into Lacadan.

However, this military vehicle traveled unimpeded and was not subject to interrogation or search.

Seeing this scene, Kate suddenly had an idea in her mind.

He waited quietly in the woods at the intersection, waiting for the arrival of the next military vehicle.

For a military town like Rakkadan, military vehicles can often be seen entering and exiting the city gate.

Not more than half an hour later, another military vehicle came here.

This time, Kate accurately grasped the fleeting opportunity.

When the military vehicle passed by him, Kate quietly boarded the carriage.

It was a carriage carrying salted fish and cured meat.

The smell on the carriage was terrible.

But Kate doesn't care about that.

The salted fish and bacon were placed in wooden barrels, and Kate emptied one of the barrels.

After stuffing the salted fish and bacon haphazardly among several other wooden barrels, Kate got into the empty barrel.

The only thing he regretted was that these wooden barrels did not have lids, so he had to take a few salted fish to cover his head.

The carriage made a creaking sound and moved forward smoothly.

Kate's heart gradually calmed down.

Like other military vehicles, this carriage entered the city smoothly.

After being a little distance away from the city gate, Kate quickly got out of the carriage with no one around.

With the smell of salted fish all over her body, Kate did not dare to wander around on the street, which would attract people's attention.

Go from this alley into that alley.

Kate hurried toward the city center.

Although Caladan is a large city and quite lively, it is not as prosperous as Vedsk and Kashina.

Although there are also many shops here, the decoration and the goods sold here are far less rich and exquisite than those in Vedsk and Kashner.

And there are no grand squares in the city center like other cities.

There is only a tall city wall here, with a row of arrow stacks built on the top of the wall.

Along the city walls, Caladan is the most prosperous place.

Although the streets are narrow and crowded, and the houses built on both sides are dilapidated, there are many pedestrians.

People crowded on both sides of the narrow road, choosing their favorite products among the dilapidated shops.

This is a city that belongs to the common people, and all happiness also belongs to the common people.

Kate walked around the city wall and roughly calculated the area occupied by the downtown area.

After making up his mind, he quietly got into an alley next to him.

Hiding in a remote and deserted corner.

Kate once again confirmed that no one was around, and he began to calm down and meditate.

As for what Jerry said about making the fireworks reveal words, Kate did think that was a pretty cool idea.

However, Kate didn't know how to control the explosion of fireworks without testing.

After thinking for a while, Kate immediately came up with an idea. Although she couldn't make the fireworks form words accurately, she could still make a relatively simple pattern.

Nothing could remind the Mados magician more than a flag of Sophie Kingdom.

Thinking of this, Kate whispered the spell.

Several colorful clouds of smoke floated in the air around him.

Since it was during the day, only fireworks could be used instead of fireworks.

As the last two incantations were completed, Kate made two random strokes.

Between the pokes of his fingers, the smoke balls shot into the sky one after another.

They are high in the air, forming special shapes according to Kate's wishes.

Kate scolded, and the smoke balls suddenly exploded, dotting the sky above Caladan with a gorgeous pattern.

Looking at the somewhat distorted and deformed smoke of different colors intertwined with each other, and barely able to distinguish the pattern of the flag of the Kingdom of Sophie, Kate shook her head helplessly.

The first time you do this kind of work, you will inevitably have some failures.

But now was not the time to think about it, Kate ducked out of the alley.

Before leaving, Kate also cast a thunder magic.

The rumble of thunder echoed across Caladan.

At this time, it was impossible for no one to notice the changes in the sky.

Walking out of the alley and into the crowd, Kate planned what to do next.

Maybe he should wait a while and see if anything changes.

Kate really hopes to see the Mados magician send a signal to her. As long as she can be contacted, things will be much easier in the future.

Suddenly, a shrill whistle sounded throughout the streets of Caladan.

Knights on horses and armor, ordinary infantrymen without guns, and heavily armored warriors all came out of the castle in the city center.

They were so aggressive that they occupied every intersection.

The common people immediately got into the small shops next to them. After a while, the streets gradually became empty.

Kate felt something was unexpected. He looked around and found a shop with the most people and got in.

The shop was extremely crowded. Kate was afraid that hiding outside would be more likely to cause trouble, so she squeezed in as hard as she could.

Those who were already in the shop were quite disgusted with Kate and did not want to make way for him. But the smell of salted fish on Kate's body made those people afraid to accept her, and others avoided her.

After finding a corner, Kate got a little chance to breathe.

At this time, a group of soldiers walked to the door of the store, and they began to interrogate everyone in the store.

Kate peeked and saw the same soldiers standing at the door of other shops.

Seeing this arrangement, Kate already knew what was going to happen next.

Under the interrogation of the soldiers, those who hesitated a little were taken to the side and temporarily imprisoned.

Kate had absolutely no confidence that he would be able to evade questioning, and he had already begun to prepare for battle.

He began to look for a breakthrough direction, and at the same time he was also looking for weapons suitable for his own use.

Although he is more familiar with weapons such as swords, it is more advantageous to have long weapons when charging into battle.

Kate had taken a fancy to the halberd held in the hands of a hoplite.

He waited for the opportunity to snatch it.

Just as Kate was nervously preparing to fight, suddenly, there was another rumble of thunder in the sky.

This time it wasn't Kate.

The soldiers who were still checking one by one immediately rushed out of the store when they heard the second thunder.

Apparently they had crossed everyone in the store off their list of suspects.

Almost at the same moment, Kate hid in the corner of the shop, holding the piece of rational heart made of emerald in her hand, and began to meditate.

Although the distance is much closer than the real heart of reason, this emerald can also search for magical fluctuations.

Sure enough, in the other corner of Caladan, a faint magical energy was slowly dissipating.

Obviously that place is where the thunder magic was released just now.

There was a fierce battle in Kate's mind.

Now he was faced with two choices, either rush out and alert the soldiers and at the same time release the thunder magic again to draw out the Mados magician.

Or you can still hide in the shop, wait until the soldiers disperse on their own, and then go to the place you just felt to investigate.

But for Kate, now is definitely not the time to hesitate.

Kate is not the impulsive type.

In the end he chose to err on the side of caution.

With a few whistles, the soldiers lined up and moved towards the place where the roar had just been heard.

However, there was still no pedestrian on the street, and there were still well-equipped heavy-armed soldiers patrolling the intersection with halberds in hand.

"Can we go?" A passerby couldn't help but ask.

"If you don't care about being caught, just go to the streets. I can't see the evening, and the martial law will not be lifted. If those soldiers don't catch the criminals, they may have to come back to continue the investigation! Hey, the guards would rather arrest the wrong person People don’t want those Sophien people to escape from the border.”

"Who says it's not? I heard that among the Sophien people, there was also the little forbidden spell mage who destroyed the Mekarus Fortress a few months ago. Once they escape back to the Sophien Kingdom, I'm afraid the Sophien Kingdom will be destroyed. The army is going to be sent to attack us." Some guy said worriedly.

"Nonsense. The Sophien Kingdom envoy originally came to plead for peace. How could they launch an attack on us?" another passerby refuted.

The passerby just now retorted: "One moment, another moment. At first, the Sophie Kingdom did not know our details, so they came to ask for peace. But after they walked around Kaoqi, they found that their strength was greater than Since we are strong, we will naturally no longer be afraid of us. What’s more, we took Her Royal Highness the Princess hostage, which naturally angered Sophie’s benefactor.”

"Nonsense, Sophie's benefactor voluntarily allowed the princess to serve as ambassador in the Kaoqi Kingdom. We did not force her to hold her as a hostage." Another passerby refuted again.

"Her Royal Highness the Princess is the Crown Prince. Which country would be willing to let the Crown Prince stay in a hostile country? Everyone knows this matter well," said the person just now.

After hearing this, no one answered.

Kate listened quietly and he never said a word.

He never thought that the people of the Kaoqi Kingdom would view the collective escape of Sophien embassy members in this way.

It seems that the sensation caused by Enleco and Bertina in the Kaoqi Kingdom has caused a sense of fear in the people of the Kaoqi Kingdom.

In this way, the Kingdom of Kaoqi may have to think twice before using force against the Kingdom of Sophie.

No wonder Qiao would order the embassy members to escape from the Kaoqi Kingdom. It turned out that he had already spotted this.

But now, what Kate is more concerned about is that after a while, those soldiers will still come back for questioning.

Regardless of whether everything the person just said was accurate, I couldn't do nothing here.

At least I had to go and see the place just now.

Thinking of this, Kate looked around for a while and saw the stairs nearby leading to the second floor window.

Kate quietly slipped up to the second floor. He looked out the window and saw an alley next to him.

But there was a heavily armored warrior standing in the alley.

Kate originally planned to sneak away quietly from the alley, but after seeing the heavily armored warrior, a new idea jumped out of his mind.

Along the wall, Kate quickly slid down to the heavily armored warrior.

His dignity as a descendant of knights does not allow him to attack others behind their backs.

However, the heavily armored warrior was obviously stunned by this sudden change.

Before he woke up, Kate had used a paralysis technique to make him completely unconscious.

Drag the heavily armored warrior into a blind corner deep in the alley.

Kate took off the armor he was wearing and put it on herself.

After putting everything neatly dressed, Kate walked out of the alley swaggeringly.

Following the direction she felt, Kate moved towards the place where the thunder once emitted.

It is obviously where the wealthier people in Caladan live, so both the houses and the layout are slightly better than other places.

There are even garden areas and a chapel there.

But now the streets are also surrounded by guards.

Kate stood under a tree, touched the emerald in her arms and meditated again. Because the distance is closer, the feeling becomes more sensitive.

That location is just a street away.

Just as Kate was thinking about how to test whether there was the person he was looking for in the room, the sky suddenly became gloomy.

He looked up and saw a red cloud covering his head.

Under the clouds, Drex was floating in the air, holding an extremely long wand in his right hand.

"Mr. Drekes, how about you please come in and have a chat?" An old voice came from inside the house.

Kate was very familiar with this voice. It was indeed the Mados magician.

"Mr. Mados, I have known for a long time that you have entered the Kaoqi Kingdom and are in this city. I just didn't expect that you would hide in this place. However, you were so miscalculated that you exposed your whereabouts. "Drekes said loudly.

"Haha, Mr. Drakes, keep an eye on me and be careful of the hunter behind you." Magician Mados said calmly.

What Magician Mados said made Kate's heart move. He suddenly thought that this was a great opportunity to deal with Drakes.

Having a rational heart, she is undoubtedly an invisible enemy to Drex.

Facing the magician Shimadus who descended from the God of Hades, it is absolutely impossible for Drekes to be distracted. It would undoubtedly be a joke with her own life.

Just one look at Drex's fully armed posture, and it seemed that he was not very sure about this battle either.

Although this method of combat is difficult for Kate to accept.

Because this is undoubtedly contrary to the knight education he has received for many years.

But because it concerned the comfort of Her Royal Highness the Princess, he didn't care much.

Although I have never learned how to carry out assassinations and sneak attacks.

However, along the way, Kate did a lot of research on the rational heart that Enleco gave to herself.

He knew this magical weapon very well. And he knew very well how to rely on this magic weapon to hide his whereabouts.

What's more, Kate also has a skill that Enleco doesn't know.

As a magic knight, he can cast magic while fighting.

Therefore, as long as Drakes confronts the Mados magician, he can definitely give Drakes a fatal blow by surprise.

Drekes, who was floating in the air, obviously understood what the magician Mados meant.

And he had also guessed that the first thunderbolt just now was fired by Magic Knight Kate.

Because as far as he knew, there were definitely no more than five people among the Sophien Kingdom embassy staff who had the ability to do this.

Among them, Her Royal Highness the Princess and Bertina would never take such a risk.

And that Enleco is now far away in the northern desert.

As for Jerry, who has never taken action among the four Sophien Kingdom magic apprentice trainees, he seems to be the most useless one.

So the only possibility is Magic Knight Kate.

Drekes also had a headache for this guy with unique skills.

But Drekes already had a plan.

"Mr. Mados, I am the master of this place no matter what. It is my duty to entertain distinguished guests from far away."

As he spoke, Drex slowly descended from the sky. Although he was a super mage, he still couldn't cast two types of magic at the same time.

After all, no one else can do this except Chrissy, the crazy woman.

Seeing Drakes landing on the ground, Kate felt indescribably excited. He used his rational heart to completely eliminate the fluctuations in his magic, and quietly hid not far behind Drakes.

When she was against Enleco and Fenasia, Drekes never dared to use large-scale magic that required a long time of preparation. Because Enleco's attack was too fast, even faster than a swordsman who was good at close combat. Using magic that requires a long period of time to chant a spell is simply a joke with one's own life.

But facing the warriors of Hades, Drekes no longer had such worries. Because he knew very well that the magical power of the divine warrior was undoubtedly quite powerful, but there was absolutely no way to speed it up.

But Drekes would never want to use her fast magic to win.

Because every divine warrior has powerful protective magic given by the gods.

Following a long sound of chanting mantras, the red clouds in the sky suddenly rolled up, as if a small storm was coming.

A gap like the eye of a hurricane appeared in the center of the red storm, and a strange red light shone in from the gap, shrouding the roof of the house.

The soldiers seemed to know that danger was coming and retreated one after another.

Suddenly, bursts of bright electric light flashed among the red clouds.

The electric light rolled and twisted like a strange snake, converging towards the eye of the hurricane in the center.

The eye of the hurricane gathered a large amount of electric light, making it look dazzling.

There is no doubt that the terrifying and fatal energy will hit the targeted house in a moment.

Seeing the scene in front of her, Kate suddenly remembered the scene when she saw the great mage Koby Leo casting the forbidden spell "Doomsday Catastrophe" in front of Mercalus Fortress.

The principles of the two are obviously similar, but there are differences in power.

Seeing Drakes busy casting that powerful magic, Kate finally couldn't bear it any longer.

Although there was a circle of heavy infantry and swordsmen standing around Drex, they surrounded the super magician tightly.

But Kate didn't take these guys seriously.

In a voice that could not be heard by the people around him, he chanted the simple incantation softly, let a wind wing wrap around his body, and then jumped up.

His body was like a wind sweeping across the earth, and like it was gliding silently on the ice.

Using that incredible movement, he passed over the heads of the guards and landed behind Drex.

If Leerta had seen what he was seeing now, he would never have thought that it was possible for him to block the strange movement that resembled the "Moon Shadow Void".

During her time at Vydsk, Kate had further perfected this stunt.

He no longer has any weaknesses.

Just as Kate waved her right palm and slashed it down on Drekes' neck, Drekes' figure suddenly swayed.

The figure disappeared in an instant.

At the same time, a bolt of lightning struck down mercilessly from above his head.

Almost at that moment, Kate understood what was going on.

Drakes didn't fall to the ground at all.

What floated down was just a phantom.

And when he rashly attacked the phantom, he not only exposed his figure, but also fell into the trap carefully set by Drex.

Obviously this guy had planned to deal with him a long time ago.

However, Drekes also had some oversights.

He never expected that Kate would approach him in the garb of a heavily armored soldier.

Unexpectedly, Kate had already become accustomed to dealing with various lightning attacks from Teacher Chris.

The four Sophien Kingdom magic apprentice trial students all have a very deep understanding of lightning magic.

In the rush, Kate wiped the spear in her hand on the ground.

The tip of the spear penetrated the bluestone and penetrated deeply into the ground.

Lightning struck the tail end of the dragon, and it was immediately absorbed by the dragon like a lightning rod, which directed most of the energy into the ground.

Just when Drex discovered his mistake, a green cloud formed in his hand, and he was about to launch another attack. Suddenly, a cloud of black smoke erupted from the house that was originally shrouded in red light.

A huge human figure with only an upper body and a lower body made of swirling smoke was revealed in the smoke.

As soon as the giant humanoid appeared, Drexel knew something was wrong.

At the same time, he also knew that he had been fooled.

Just like Kate didn't see her phantom, she also didn't see that the magician from Hades, Mados, was not here at all.

The cunning guy has a stand-in here.

An extremely scary and difficult substitute.

This huge human figure is undoubtedly the servant of the dead god under the seat of Hades.

These guys are a huge problem for themselves.

Most of the magic he is good at is not very effective against these guys. Instead, Kobe Leo's fire magic can drive them away.

Faced with such an opponent that was difficult to defeat, Drakes had no interest in continuing to struggle.

He rose to a higher place and casually threw the green clouds towards Kate who was surrounded below.

The only hope now is to gain something.

But Drekes knew there was little hope.

Since Mados had been prepared, he must have been prepared to deal with his companions.

Sure enough, a burst of black smoke suddenly emerged from the ground and tightly wrapped Kate's body.

Kate, who was wrapped in black smoke, felt as if her body had turned into smoke.

He had felt this feeling once before, when the magician Mados led everyone through the Valx Mountains.

Presumably this time is also the arrangement of Magician Mados.

Drekes looked at Kate who turned into black smoke and quickly disappeared. He shook his head helplessly.

Likewise, he watched helplessly as the servant of Hades tore the red clouds in the sky into pieces. The scorching lightning was of no use to the servant made of smoke.

Drex turned around and flew towards the castle in the city center. He wanted to plan how to fight next.

In the Valquez Mountains he had one more chance.

However, that would be the last chance.
