David was in the alchemy room, holding a quill in his hand, drawing patterns on a piece of crystal.
Suddenly, the strokes in his hand froze, and then cracks appeared on the crystal.
Looking at the scrapped crystals in his hands, David felt a little pity. He happened to replace a lot of crystals this time. He planned to use these crystals to make some alchemy gadgets and practice his ability to draw patterns.
It's just that a burst of alchemy energy just now affected the master-level 'alchemy pattern' in his soul fortress.
The master-level 'alchemy pattern' in Soul Fortress is extremely sensitive to alchemy energy, and David is working wholeheartedly. The sudden burst of violent alchemy energy affects his control over the 'alchemy pattern', making the pattern in his hand work cannot continue.
You must know that the cooperation of the 'alchemy pattern' is required when drawing patterns. Once there is a problem with the coordination, the drawing pattern cannot continue.
David's mind entered Shadow Servant's body, and Shadow Servant came out through the wall and went straight to the sky.
At a hundred meters away, he looked around the city through Shadow Waiter's eyes.
David also discovered the source of the alchemy energy, which were six points located on the periphery of the inner city, which just surrounded the entire inner city.
"Someone set up an alchemy formation!" David understood what happened through the alchemy knowledge in his memory.
It's just that such a large-scale alchemy circle is extremely difficult in terms of difficulty and complexity. Who can arrange an alchemy circle covering the entire inner city
It wasn't that David looked down on Santo Kagel. With the strength shown by Santo Kagel and David's experience of seeing the Santo's Mansion when he attended the reception, he was simply not capable of arranging such a huge alchemy circle.
You must know that setting up such an alchemy circle requires multiple people with strong spiritual talents to do it at the same time.
It is estimated that not to mention the City Lord's Mansion, it is difficult to find a few people with strong spiritual talents in the entire Jianmo City.
Since it's not the City Lord's Mansion, then the biggest possibility is the followers of the evil gods!
"Steward Jason, Steward Albin, Knight Andrew, come here immediately!" Thinking of this possibility, David immediately pushed open the door of the alchemy room, and shouted loudly when he returned to the study.
Soon Butler Jason, Butler Albin and Knight Andrew all rushed over.
"Steward Albin, you are responsible for bringing all the servants into the safe house, Steward Jason, you are responsible for preparing the food, and Knight Andrew will protect everyone's safety!" David ordered directly without waiting for them to salute.
"Yes!" Although they didn't know what happened, all three of them saw the solemn expression on David's face, and agreed without asking.
David didn't explain anything. If his judgment was wrong, it was just a safety exercise, but if his judgment was correct, it would be useless if they knew it. It would be better not to know.
David also has no intention of becoming a hero. His current strength is at a low ebb. Coupled with his current status as Baron Arthur, he has many combat abilities that cannot be used, which limits his combat power.
He didn't want to rush out without knowing the strength of the enemy.
Butler Albin was very familiar with the environment of the villa, and the servants were also well-trained. After receiving the order, no one made a sound, and they all ran into the safe house.
The safe house needs to be entered from a hidden entrance in the basement, which is ten meters deep underground. Due to the special passage design, the basement does not need to worry about the infiltration of gases such as poisonous fog.
Coupled with being deep enough, it can also isolate the mental scan to a certain extent.
This design is very common in noble buildings, but the hidden positions are different.
There are even some nobles who will build a secret passage leading out of the city under the building. That is the real escape route, but there are very few nobles who have such conditions.
David also followed into the safe house, which was designed to accommodate fifty people, but the actual number of people in the villa was only twenty-five, so it was not crowded after entering.
"Lord Baron!" All the servants bowed and saluted after seeing David enter the safe house.
Their eyes were full of gratitude. Although they didn't know what happened, David was able to open the safe house to them when they were in danger. This kind of behavior moved them.
Any safe house is a family secret, and the fewer people who know about the safe house, the better.
Therefore, when danger comes, most nobles will only bring their cronies into the safe house, and will not care about the life and death of the servants.
"Sit down and don't make a sound. Someone has blocked the inner city with an alchemy circle, but as long as you hide here, there will be no danger!" David waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then said.
"Master, the food is enough for everyone here for five days!" Jason the butler softly reported to David.
"Very good!" David nodded and smiled.
There is still a lot of food in his space ring, and the shadow waiter can move freely within a hundred meters. The villa's food warehouse is within this range. If he needs it, he can get more food from the food warehouse at any time.
No one spoke in the safe house, David's mind returned to Shadow Servant, he was observing what happened.
The streets of the inner city have become chaotic, and a skeleton knight is marching on the streets.
The bare bones of the skeleton warhorse are equipped with horse armor, and the knight on the skeleton warhorse is covered by armor except for the face, and the exposed face is the face of the skull.
The faint blue flames in the skeleton knight's eyes made everyone who saw it feel a trembling soul.
Behind the skeleton knight, four people in robes with hoods covering their faces walked on the street.
All nobles lived in this street, and they immediately knew the identities of these four people. Only believers of evil gods would be with the skeleton knight.
The people on the street immediately fled in all directions. Fortunately, these four believers of evil gods had no intention of attacking ordinary people, or maybe they didn't want to waste time on these ordinary people.
The goal of the four evil god believers is very clear, and their goal is the City Lord's Mansion.
Even though the four believers of evil gods didn't have mounts, their speed was extremely fast. They passed through a few kilometers of streets very quickly, and the City Lord's Mansion was just ahead.
Castellan Kagel rode on a horse and ran at high speed in the corridors of the castellan's mansion, completely ignoring those precious decorations.
Some antiques placed in the corridor were brought down by the war horse and fell to the ground. If it was normal, he would be heartbroken.
But today he ignored these antiques. Just now, an alarm came from the watchtower of the City Lord's Mansion, and someone invaded the inner city.
The Lord Cagle immediately took out the contact circle, but he found that the contact circle could not contact Captain Marquis, and could not recall the knight team composed of twenty-six knights.
He knew in his heart that the presence of evil god believers in Sisang Town was probably just a decoy, just to transfer the knight team away from Jianmo City.
Without the Cavaliers and Captain Marquis in Jianmer City, Jianmer City's defense capability has been greatly reduced.
Even if the Lord Kagel wanted to call the remaining knights in the city, he couldn't do it.
Every noble family has to consider their own safety, and they will never send out their final combat power at such a time, even if this is the only way to possibly defeat the enemy, they will not do so.
Because the noble families all have safe houses, the knights of the noble families will not go all out until the last moment.
Without getting in touch with Captain Marquis, Santo Cagle immediately summoned his horse. His goal was to protect Charlie.
Everyone here can die, even he can sacrifice, but Charlie must not have an accident. If something happens to Charlie, let alone him, even Earl Bunker cannot bear the ensuing anger.
"Master Charlie, I'm sorry!" Castellan Cagle rode his horse to the door of Charlie's room, and he slammed open the heavy wooden door while talking.
"What's the matter?" Charlie, who was sitting at the table reading a book, was also surprised when he saw the intruding Lord Kagel, and then asked.
"Master Charlie, there are believers of evil gods entering the inner city, you must hide!" City Lord Kagel said in a deep voice.
"I'm a knight, and I'll fight with you!" Charlie said loudly, his eyes brightened.
"The strength of the followers of the evil god far surpasses that of the City Lord's Mansion. For your safety, you must enter the safe house!" City Lord Kagel said eagerly.
"I'm not afraid of death!" Charlie said passionately.
"I'm sorry!" Knowing that there was no time to persuade the Lord Cagle, he reached out and grabbed Charlie.
He was a knight of the land, and when he made a sudden move, Charlie was grabbed by the shoulder without any intention, and then Charlie was pushed in front of the horse by him.
The Lord Cagle turned his horse's head and walked towards the hidden safe house.
There are three safe houses in the City Lord's Mansion. The safe house located in the stable is the safest. It is designed with a slide-type entry, which can only be used by one person, and it will automatically close after sliding in.
The Lord Cagle ignored Charlie's struggle, and he threw Charlie into the entrance of the passage.
Although Charlie is also a knight, after entering the entrance of the passage, he can only slide down the slide, unable to maintain his balance at all.
After Charlie slipped through a mechanism at the entrance of the passage, the slide began to close.
When he lands in a net, he sees around him.
This is not a small safe house with complete facilities, and food and water are piled beside the walls.
Charlie got off the Internet, came to a table and sat down, because he saw the magic circle arranged on the table, which was the monitoring magic circle.
He used the power of blood to activate, and the situation on the ground appeared on the monitoring circle. The angle of view of the monitoring circle was from the downward perspective of the watchtower, but he could see the overall situation of the City Lord's Mansion.
Charlie saw the skeleton knight, and also saw the four men in black robes.
"City Lord Kagel, hand over Charlie, and we will leave immediately without hurting anyone in the city!" The leader in black robe said in a hoarse voice.
Charlie heard the words of the man in black through the monitoring circle, and he couldn't help being shocked. The news that he came out was very secret, because he sneaked out from home.
An aristocratic ball was arranged at home, and he overheard that a suitable wife would be chosen for him in this aristocratic ball, which made it unacceptable for him who wanted to have a romantic relationship.
So Charlie sneaked out of the house.
In order not to let his family find him easily, he chose to come to the remote and remote Dasheng star.
Of course, Charlie never thought that he could really escape the search at home, but just took this opportunity to come out to play, and by the way, he also threatened the family in this way.
But he never expected that the evil god believers would find out about his sneaking out and track him down here.
"I don't know what you're talking about. I only know that believers of evil gods deserve to die!" City Lord Kagel replied loudly. He waved his hand and ordered the fifty guards behind him: "Form up, prepare to fight!"
City Lord Kagel's heart was also icy cold, he did not expect that the followers of the evil god would come over all of a sudden with four third-level fighters.
Even if a knight of the same level is more powerful, he can only block two third-level evil god believers at most. Could it be possible to rely on the fifty guards behind him to block the remaining two evil god believers
The fifty guards were fully armed, but in fact there was no way to send them out. All the knights from the City Lord's Mansion had been sent out, and the rest were only these combat forces.
The fifty guards might not even be able to stop the charge of the skeleton knight next to the evil god believer, but the city lord Kagel has no other choice.
"Do you really think we can't find Charlie? We are fully prepared for this operation!" The black robe summoned an ugly puppy while talking.
Seeing the ugly puppy, the Lord of Cagle panicked in his eyes.
This is a tracking dog. Although it looks ugly, it is an extraordinary creature with a natural ability to track and track.
"If you want to find Charlie, then defeat me!" The horse under the city lord Kagel hissed softly, and he also had a third-grade epee in his hand, and said in a deep voice.
He was ready to charge, trying to kill him before the Tracking spell could act.
But the four black-robed evil god believers had been prepared for a long time. One of the evil god believers waved his hand, and a thick ice wall blocked in front of the city lord Kagel.
"You guys are going to deal with the Lord Kagel, I'm going to catch Charlie!" The leading black-robed evil god believer said to the other three evil god believers.
"No problem, leave it to us!" A believer of the evil god replied confidently.
White light flashed from the body of the city lord Kagel, and an armor composed of blood power appeared outside the armor on his body. At the same time, the third-grade epee in his hand was also wrapped by the power of blood of white light.
Now he has no idea of retaining his strength at all, he frantically mobilizes the power of his blood, preparing to end the battle in a short time.
Either die in battle or win. The Lord Cagle doesn't want to drag Charlie to be caught, so he might as well die in battle first.
Ever since he knew Charlie's identity, he was worried about Charlie's safety. Fortunately, Charlie was a knight himself, and in a big city like Jianmer City, he didn't have to worry about it with his protection.
The reason why the knight team was established was also the idea of protecting Charlie, but they didn't expect to be transferred from Jianmer City by the followers of the evil god.
