When he found the night watchman, Lucien immediately threw the blazing glue tightly held in his hand at him.
The magic carried by the "Ice and Snow Avenger" ring has been used up, and the blazing glue has become Lucien's most powerful means, so when he was running in the rainstorm just now, he held a tube of blazing glue in each hand. Throw it out immediately.
"If 'Scream of the Bat' hadn't been very ineffective in detecting under heavy rain and thunder, I could have spotted him in advance and avoided him." Cautiously, he also threw out the blazing glue in his right hand Afterwards, Lucien quickly moved to the entrance of the secret passage on the left front.
When the night watchman saw Lucien, he also stretched out his hands. A pair of dark gloves seemed to be able to swallow all the light. As a night watchman who had been fighting various dangerous creatures in the dark for a long time, his reaction was no slower than Lucien's.
The first tube of blazing glue was directly held by the hands of the night watchman wearing pitch-black gloves. It was about to explode under the influence of mental power, but it seemed to be extinguished under the control of the pitch-black gloves. There was no violent explosion, nor was it ignited. The body, the inextinguishable flame.
The black gloves worn by every night watchman in the church are excellent magic items, engraved with the magic circle of the corresponding level, limited by the number of black glove items, the number of night watchmen in the church has always been small, and every In addition to relying on magic items, a night watchman is equally powerful. There are high-level knight attendants, priests, knights, incorporated dark knights, evil creatures, and even magicians.
As soon as the night watchman caught the first tube of blazing glue, Lucien's second tube of blazing glue flew over, but the power of this tube of blazing glue seemed insufficient, and it didn't hit the night watchman's body. Instead, it fell in front of him, landed on the ground, and exploded violently. A blazing fireball shot up, burning on the night watchman who had no time to react, and at the same time ignited the blazing fire that was caught. Glue, let it react and explode by itself.
With a bang, the night watchman was blown away, and the colloid stuck to the night watchman's body and burned violently, unable to be extinguished by the rainstorm.
Lucien didn't go to check the results of the blazing glue, but quickly moved to the entrance of the secret passage, cast magic, and opened the mechanism.
Suddenly, a cry that seemed to sound from the bottom of his heart appeared in Lucien's ear, with the natural oppressive force of a top creature in the food chain, which made Lucien tremble uncontrollably, his legs went weak, if it wasn't for the Ice Avenger The ring, with Lucien's concentration and calmness in casting spells alone, would definitely not be able to deal with this kind of oppression.
Another huge whip-like lightning flashed, and the night watchman could be seen approaching quickly in the rainstorm, with a layer of burning glue on his body, but he seemed to be completely unaffected, only his face was slightly pale and his mouth was open. There is a thin line of magma-like blood flowing on the side, which was injured by the power of the explosion, not the flame.
From his burnt white dress and shirt, one can directly see the skin inside. It is a layer of skin covered by red scales. The flame of the blazing glue is isolated by this layer of skin, and can only burn slightly. Burnt scales.
Seeing such a situation, how could Lucien still not understand the opponent's strength, this is a dark knight who has aroused his blood power, and his blood power is "Red Dragon"!
This night watchman gave Lucien the feeling that he was much weaker than the black shadow knight just now, but his speed and strength were still beyond his reach. If he turned around and ran, he might be chased by him just after entering the secret passage. Now, none of his apprentice-level magic can stop him, not to mention he still has a pair of black gloves, unless he becomes a formal magician, his mental power is greatly increased, and he can increase the frequency that the hand of resonance can simulate to a high level. The degree of energy infrasound.
Facing the night watchman flying over, Lucien resisted "Longwei" with the help of "Ice and Snow Avenger", calmly calculated the distance between the two without panicking.
"Twenty meters, ten meters..."
Then, Lucien threw out the last tube of blazing glue, and threw it five meters away from him. There was a bang explosion, and the burning colloidal fireball flew forward under the control of Lucien's mental power. The shock wave spread uncontrollably in all directions, including Lucien's own direction.
The night watchman was not afraid of the burning of the blazing glue, but under the impact of the explosion, his forward speed was slowed down, he paused in place, and even took a step back.
Lucien, who was impacted by the opposite direction, just held his hood tightly with one hand and protected his chest with the other, and was thrown backward by the air wave.
The position where Lucien was standing was the entrance of the slanted secret passage, so he rolled directly into the secret passage and quickly rolled out several meters.
Lucien felt as if he had been hit directly by a huge hammer. His internal organs vibrated, his blood swelled, his throat smelled like rust, and he spurted out a mouthful of blood, making him dizzy.
After the explosion outside ended, the night watchman kicked his feet and chased after Lucien who had just stood up in the secret passage. At this time, the distance between the two sides was about 20 meters, and the night watchman was afraid of being attacked by Lucien's other magic items. The hit did not go in a straight line, but moved forward in a serpentine shape.
But the night watchman ran a few meters away, and saw the black-robed magician pressing one hand on the wall of the secret passage, holding a tube of potion in the other hand, bowing slightly, as if saluting himself, and then secreted the passage The entrance collapsed suddenly, the first layer of stones turned into mud and fell, and the stones behind lost their balance and continued to fall. In just a second, the entrance to the secret passage was buried.
This is the "micro-effect fossil into mud" magic circle arranged by the sage to destroy the secret passage in an emergency.
The night watchman slammed directly into the dirt and stones in the secret passage, creating a one-meter-deep human-shaped black hole, but he had no choice but to stop and re-gather his strength. Deep in the secret passage, there was another sound of collapse.
Looking at the yellow-brown soil, smelling the "fragrant" smell, and hearing the sound of thunder, the night watchman gritted his teeth, punched the soil fiercely, and said angrily: "I will definitely catch you, you The damn magician."
※※※
While taking "Tempest" to stabilize his injuries and stimulate his potential, Lucien activated the magic circle every ten meters he ran, destroying the secret passage in this section. The movement of the collapse was traced from the ground to the exit.
Relying on the potential stimulated by the potion, Lucien spent half the time compared to coming here, and quickly left from the exit of the secret passage, closing it with magic.
Then Lucien took off the black robe, transferred the contents into the pocket of the inner linen jacket, and then burned the black robe with the "Little Flame of Maris", so as not to be caught by the night watchman with a keen sense of smell according to his black color. The taste of herbs deliberately added to the robe traced it.
This herbal smell was configured by Lucien to cover up his own smell.
With the help of sulfur, the drenched black robe was quickly completely burned. After doing all this, Lucien hurried out of the house and quickly returned to his hut in the darkness and rainstorm.
It was not until he entered his hut, dried the linen jacket and trousers, put the potions, test tubes, etc. into the laboratory, hid the spell-casting materials in the hut, and lay down on the bed, that Lucien was slightly relieved.
Previously, Lucien's logic was clear and his energy was strong, and he maintained it by motivating his potential. Now that he relaxes, he immediately feels weak all over his body, and his unhealed injuries continue to be tormented by the subsequent slow treatment of "Storm". He fell into a half-asleep, half-awake state.
Lightning, thunder, and heavy rain seemed to isolate Lucien's cabin from the world, and there was an unspeakable tranquility amidst the noise.
Perhaps it was such bad weather that made it impossible for the night watchmen of the church to track Lucien and other apprentices. They spent the night peacefully in the waterfall-like rain until dawn.
According to Lucien's guess, the high-ranking powerhouses should focus on the dead Baron Laurent, because that is the blood and power of the devil, plus the sacrifice with the help of evil power, it is easy to think of the previous "Silver Horn" cult.

In the early morning, the torrential rain was much lighter, but it could still be called heavy rain. The sun was devoured, Alto and the surrounding areas were still dim, and the poor who had to work daily to make a living made various sounds amidst the sound of rain.
Lucien woke up groggy, feeling very uncomfortable, so he decided not to go to the library in the morning, continue to rest, and go to Mr. Victor after lunch. Anyway, Pierre was there, and the library of the association was always deserted.
At breakfast, Aunt Alisa saw that Lucien hadn't come, so she sent Aiwen to see what happened to him, but Lucien seized the opportunity and told Aiwen to go to the library to ask for leave.
After that, Lucien continued to fall asleep in the sound of the rain, and he didn't feel better until he woke up at noon. He felt that he was finally alive again, but his body was still obviously weak. Although the power of the fire glue explosion was not strong, Lucien was not a knight-level powerhouse at such a short distance, so he would inevitably be seriously injured. Fortunately, he had pre-refined the medicine "Tempest" to treat injuries.
After lunch, with the umbrella borrowed from Aunt Alisa's house, Lucien recovered some energy and walked to Victor's house in Jisu District. It is best to settle the matter today, and the last week is only three days away. .

At ten o'clock in the morning, in Victor's piano room.
Victor, who was thinking hard about the melody and his face was full of impatience, suddenly heard a knock on the door, which made him unable to bear the surge of emotion, and it was very difficult to suppress it.
Holding a quill, he opened the door of the piano room. Victor saw Lot, Phyllis, and Herodotus who should have arrived in the afternoon, and asked strangely, "Why did you come here suddenly? What's the matter?"
Lott said with embarrassment: "Mr. Victor, McCants told me that Baron Othello asked you to go to the association as soon as possible today, because Her Royal Highness suddenly wants to know the repertoire of the last three concerts."
According to his habit, he went to the association to practice musical instruments in the morning and came to study with Victor in the afternoon, but he ran into McCants and heard the bad news.
The quill fell on the thick carpet without making any sound. Victor's face was pale, and he took a few steps back before standing still.
"Mr. Victor..." The three students stepped forward with concern.
Victor waved his hand, took a deep breath, and then let it out: "I see, let me be quiet for thirty minutes before going to the association."
※※※
Arriving at Victor's house, Lucien, led by a servant who was already familiar with him, walked to the door of the house and saw the butler Ace.
"Mr. Ace, which room is Mr. Victor in? I have something to ask him." Lucien smiled and greeted the butler Ace, "You look bad, are you sick?"
Ace shook his head: "I'm fine, it's the master, he went to the association, because Her Royal Highness wanted to know the titles of the last three concerts, so Baron Othello invited him to the association."
"You have already been invited to the association to determine the repertoire..." Lucien was stunned for a moment, and then asked eagerly, "How long have you been away, Mr. Victor?"
"I went out at 10:40 in the morning. You wait for about half an hour, and the master should be back." Ace thought that Lucien was in a hurry and wanted to catch up.
It is twelve thirty-five noon.
Lucien was filled with strong disappointment: "If I hadn't asked for leave in the morning, I would have met Mr. Victor in the association. Is it really fate?"
"No, I have to go and try anyway, maybe because of the heavy rain, maybe because of what happened last night, the list has not been confirmed, or it hasn't been sent to the princess yet. I can't just give up like this!"
Lucien thanked Mr. Ace, picked up his umbrella, rushed into the misty rain, and ran towards the Musicians Association.
