City of Dimlight

Chapter 181 Black Knight

Leo and others successfully wandered in the caravan and followed them to the Stone City.

Although I don't know which family this caravan belongs to, it can be seen from the etiquette of the servants that this is a family under aristocratic education. All servants are very particular about the things or food required by their masters. It can be seen that they are relatively picky and well-educated families.

They soon became acquainted with the guards, not only because they could bring back their prey every day, but more importantly, by chance, Leo showed his hand. The snake meat he barbecued was extremely fresh and tender, which made everyone admired.

Soon Leo knew that the owner of this caravan was the family of the old duke, and their owner was the daughter of the old duke, the sister of the leader Leris, and the wife of the leader Enrique - no matter who was crowned with so many titles, he was no exception, and he was unimpeded on the journey. Even the generals under the new emperor Howard respect him.

No one wants to offend such a person. God knows whether he will belong to the old duke in the future.

Leo and others naturally passed the defense line and quickly reached the inside of the kingdom.

At the fork in the road, Leo looked for an opportunity, sneaked away at night, left the caravan and went to his destination.

Soon they found the right way to Buringden Stone City.

But what they don't know is that some of the kings are exploring their tracks.

A miraculous stone pillar stands in the middle of the Stone City, which is a strange building surrounded by the powerful light of magic. Unlike any other building in the forgotten country, the Witch Tower is actually like a stone tree with five spires protruding from above, the largest one in the middle, while the other four of equal height extend from the trunk at an elegant curved angle like an oak tree. Here, you can't see any traces left by craftsmen. For any knowledgeable observer, it is obvious that this work of art is not covered by any physical labor but through magic.

Even the dwarves who have lived in Wangdu for decades can't explain how this stone pillar came out. It seems that it became like this overnight. In their memory, it was originally an ordinary stone pillar, but after the past night, it suddenly turned into a strange appearance, and there were still Soldiers took turns to guard the building.

Maybe there are not many people in Wangdu who know the real situation, but Fulence, the dark elf martial arts commander, absolutely knows - because this is the station they asked for, which was later converted from magic according to the habits of the dark elves.

Now the martial arts technician is listening to the report of his subordinates.

"You did a good job," Forens said. The news he received from the fast bat explained the problem, and now he praises the president of the thief union. "Don't continue to pursue them blindly, but report to me - it's wise for you to do this."

Basha accepted the praise with an understanding nod, and he knew that the other party had lowered his body to praise him. I'm just following the instructions," he replied humbly, glancing at the man standing by the only window in the room in a brown robe and hiding in the dark.

"Why did they come here?" The martial arts chief asked himself softly. He turned to the others, and they immediately retreated instinctively. Although he looks very weak from a distance, if you look closely, you will find that he contains a stronger force than the bulging muscles. And his reputation for attaching importance to the pursuit of knowledge far more than life makes anyone who comes to him feel threatened. Did they say any reason for coming here?

"I don't know," Bacha replied calmly. They should stay at the station now, not go here - unless they are crazy!"

"Not very similar. Howard interrupted that he was talking to himself rather than talking to everyone. They have no reason to come here.

But soon Baxia came up with one - this was originally speculated by him, but now he pretended to be as if he had found it temporarily. "I thought of a possibility, distinguished adult!"

"Hm?" Forens gave him an encouraging look.

"Maybe they came here to revenge," Bacha summoned up her courage, "because Leo and Miss Nicole used to be lovers..."

"Hit!" Howard stood up and shouted, "Don't pull my sister together with that despicable mercenary!" He stared nervously at Lawrence for fear that Nicole would be used as bait - he now knows well the character of the dark elves and how they will make decisions when they know the importance of Nicole.

"Yes, yes, yes!" Basha promised, but he was secretly laughing in his heart, "It's just that he likes Miss Nicole..."

"I told you to shut up, didn't you hear me?" Howard began to approach the guy who dared to provoke himself.

"Really?"

The martial arts chief suddenly asked, and he seemed to be very interested in this news, "Has he ever loved the princess?"

Under his eyes, Howard began to retreat, but he still defended, "He, well, he was with Nicole, but it was a long time ago," he clenched his fist tightly, "I won't use Nicole as bait!"

"Look at what you said," Lawrence suddenly smiled. "How can I risk your sister - but to be honest, after knowing this situation, we can arrange a little plan. You don't need your sister herself, you can use her name to lure this mercenary!"

Hearing the dark elf's promise, Howard breathed a sigh of relief. He stared at Bacha fiercely, then turned his head and asked, "If I don't use my sister as bait, I have no problem - the key is to find them there now!"

Forens smiled and said, "I just have a way to deal with this - please wait a minute. I'll invite someone to help us."

Then he motioned everyone to follow him and enter a specific room.

After lighting a circle of candles along the edge of this special room, he slowly moved to a copper basin on an iron tripod outside the magic spell circle engraved on the ground.

Then he sat cross-legged in the center of the magic circle and recited repeatedly until he entered a deep meditative state. When the flame began to burn and became more and more vigorous, he began to use soul vocation.

His heavy eyelids opened a crack, and the horizon like a line was only fixed on the charcoal fire. These flames will become the life of the summoned soul and give it a shape during the dark elves lock it in the material world.

"Mobis, it's already accepted, take Bin!" Volens began to mutter spells in a slow pace, and then the rhythm became closer and closer. He was pulled by the strong suction of magic, just like the spell that had been given a moment of life wanted to complete itself. However, he easily continued all kinds of tone changes and mysterious syllables. The sweat on his face showed more than tension than desire.

He is addicted to summoning and dominating the will of those beings in the world of death through absolute adherence to his considerable spiritual power. This room shows the extreme of all his painstaking research, which indisputably proves his great power.

This time his target is his favorite intelligence provider, a spirit that really despises him but can't refuse his call. Volens came to the most** of the casting process: naming. Simon." He called softly.

There was only one second of strong and dazzling flames on the copper basin.

"Simon!" The dark elf shouted and would be torn over by the spirit set in another world. The whole copper basin spewed out a small fireball, and then fell silent again into darkness, and the flame turned into a human figure standing in front of everyone.

The dark elf's thin lips curled up. How ironic!" He thought that because after the dead spirit was bound, he learned that this was Leo's former master. After learning that he was defeated by Leo, and the fragments might be in the hands of the mercenary, the ghost emperor gave the dead spirit to him and ordered him to make good use of it at the critical moment.

Whenever the dark elf thinks that the dark knight has a chance to kill Leo, he will rub his hands eagerly.

"Welcome, Simon the Dark Knight." He said with a smile. You're welcome to accept my invitation.

"I will accept every opportunity to see you! Fulence, the martial arts chief. The Dark Knight replied. When you come to the dark underworld on the boat of death, then we will be on an equal footing..."

"Shut up!" The dark elf ordered. Although he will not admit it to himself, he is very afraid that he will have to face the dark knight again. I brought you here for one purpose," he told the other party. I don't have time to listen to your threats."

"Then tell me what I should do." The ghost whispered. Then let me go. Your presence makes me uncomfortable."

The dark elf was angry, but he did not continue to argue. In the summoning spell, in order to maintain the soul in the material world, time will absorb the energy of a wizard, weakening him a little more every second. The danger of this kind of spell is that the caster may try to maintain this situation for too long, and eventually he finds that he is weak enough to control the entity he recruited. Although he has stepped into the ninth level, after all, he is only a warrior rather than a magician, so he should grasp the time when using the only magic.

"What I want today is just a simple answer, Simon." The dark elf said that he carefully chose to use words.

"What's the problem?" The Black Knight asked.

"I want to find your apprentice Leo." The Dark Elf explained. What are they doing in this city? Where are they now?

Simon looked at his foe carefully to find the reason why he asked. You should ask the president of the thief union around you about this question," he replied. Do you think I will tell you Leo's whereabouts?"

"But I've already asked you!" Lawrence screamed and was instantly furious. This black knight is procrastinating and paying a price for every second he spends.

Forens opened a roll of sheepskin rolls in front of him.

"If you don't do it, I will destroy this paper." He warned.

Simon retreated. He understood the nature of these handwriting. Matthew was trapped in this spell and did not know how the ghost emperor found him, but he had to sacrifice his friends from torture.

"How long do you want me to find the answer?" The Black Knight asked. I can find Leo there, but I will never help you deal with him!"

"No need." Lawrence smiled at the victory, although his energy was still being absorbed. Two hours." He replied without hesitation that he had carefully decided the length of time before summoning. The time he chose gave Simon enough opportunity to find the answer he wanted, but it was not long enough for this guy to reveal a lot of information to the mercenary he was going to frame.

After getting the promise of the dark elf, the black knight suddenly retreated and disappeared in a gust of smoke. The flame that had kept him back to the brazier and waited for him to come back.

The dark elf immediately relaxed. Although he continued to concentrate on maintaining the smooth flow of the boundary gate, when the soul left, the traction of his will and the absorption of his energy were significantly reduced. In their meeting, the Black Knight's willpower almost destroyed him, and Forens also shook his head, feeling unbelievable that the swordsman could exert so much power from death to the outside world.

But after all, he has successfully sent this guy out to inquire about the news, so he stood up and smiled at his companion and said, "Now we just need to wait for the news!"
