Noble Emblem

The giant fireball didn't fall very fast. From a distance of more than 100 meters, it fell for nearly 20 seconds before it actually fell to the ground.

Before it fell, the entire city lord's manor had turned into a field of fire, bright red. When the fireball fell to the ground, it exploded. At this moment, the entire Sicilian city seemed to have turned from night to day. , if the bright light like the sun lasted for nearly a minute, the entire Sicilian city was shaking.

The loud noise caused by the explosion made almost everyone in the city deaf, and everyone's ears were filled with buzzing tinnitus.

Joshua and Julie, who were on the periphery of the explosion, were directly lifted up by the terrifying huge waves, and fell seven or eight meters away like rag dolls.

Countless gravel and broken branches passed over their heads or hit them around them, as densely as falling rain.

But they were lucky. Nothing that could hurt hit them. At most, some dust or pebbles covered their bodies.

After a while, the two woke up from the coma. Joshua looked at the huge red pit in the distance with a dismayed look... At the bottom of the pit was red magma that was still bubbling.

Home is gone... Joshua felt an inexplicable sadness rising from the bottom of his heart. He wanted to step forward absentmindedly, but Julie held him back and said anxiously: "Master, don't go back. Beta must be looking for us nearby, and we must escape first."

Joshua trembled and finally reacted: "Where are my city guards?"

"Escaped." Julie was a little afraid to look into Joshua's eyes: "They escaped before the fireball came down. Master, we have to escape too, Beta will not let us go."

"Those betrayers, they will definitely go to hell." Joshua roared angrily with red eyes: "I won't leave, I want to see Beta here, and I want him to give me an explanation why he dares to destroy Drop my home.”

There was a snap.

Julie slapped Joshua directly on the face, and shouted with tears in her eyes: "Master, wake up, you want to kill others, why can't others turn around and kill you... If you don't leave, we will No chance to leave again."

Joshua stared at Julie blankly. After a while, his whole body trembled: "Yes, we have to go, we have to go."

Now there was no need for Julie to persuade him, Joshua took the former’s hand directly and went into the hidden forest. Joshua is not an idiot. He was just obsessed with power some time ago, which led to self-aggrandizement and wrong judgment.

But Beta used a huge siege-level fireball, and Julie directly woke him up with a slap.

The figures of the two people disappeared into the woods, and not far from them, there were two translucent figures.

Shirley watched the two people leave and asked, "Beta, are you just going to let them go? Don't you take the opportunity to go up and kill him?"

"For those who are fascinated by power, killing them is often not the best way to relieve their hatred." Beta said slowly: "Besides, I don't think Joshua can escape casually. Although he, the city lord, It's not too much, but I don't think there is anyone who is sincerely on his side. Even his cousins ​​no longer have any intention of being close to him, let alone others, just watch, I think he can escape. How far."

Indeed, as Beta expected, when the fireball fell, all the nobles in the manor first fled the manor. Then when they saw the fireball destroying the city lord's manor in the distance, they were first frightened and then excited.

The opportunity has come.

It is the instinct of nobles to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. They have a sense of smell as sensitive as a dog's nose when it comes to benefits.

Pursuing teams were temporarily formed at extremely fast speeds. With the help of tracking experts, they quickly locked the direction of Joshua's escape and followed him.

These chasing teams quickly merged, and after a brief fight, only three teams stood out, biting Joshua's tail.

In the past two years, Joshua collected a lot of property in the city of Sicily. Although the manor was destroyed, everyone believed that Joshua must have more than one treasury.

Moreover, catching Joshua will also be of great benefit to him as the city lord. For example, Joshua can put on a show in front of all the nobles and say that he will give up the position to himself.

Of course, these are just the icing on the cake. What really matters is strength. Capturing Joshua and forcing him to find out where his gold is hidden, a large amount of property can be converted into sufficient strength.

Everyone understands this.

As we got further and further away from the burning manor, the surroundings gradually became darker. As Joshua was running, he heard the sound of rapid footsteps coming from behind, and there were at least a dozen people.

He turned around and drew forward, and a long and high earth wall appeared in front of him. He has the talent of Heart of Earth Element. When using earth magic, he is very fast and does not consume much mental power.

Taking advantage of the enemy being blocked, he pulled Julie and continued running forward.

But not long after, the enemy's footsteps appeared behind again.

The second earth wall appeared, followed by the third, fourth... By the seventh wall, Joshua was tired. If his knighthood had not been taken away and he was still at the elite level, he would at least be able to Cast thirty earth walls.

He was breathing heavily, and the sound of breathing as loud as a blower sounded in the woods.

Julie was also sweaty from running, but as a maid, she often worked and her physical strength was not bad. At times like this, she could persist longer than Joshua, and she was not overworked.

She looked sideways at Joshua, her eyes gradually turning cold. After a while, she took a deep breath, shook off Joshua's hand, and stood there.

Joshua ran two steps, stood still, and then asked worriedly: "Julie, what's wrong? Come on, did you twist your foot?"

Julie's eyes were cold and ruthless: "I don't want to leave with you."

"Why?" Joshua exclaimed.

There was even some disgust on Julie's face: "Because I suddenly figured out that I don't want to suffer with you anymore... I am very beautiful, and even if I am the lover of an old nobleman, I will be much better than you, a lost dog. "

Joshua was stunned for nearly ten seconds before he 'understood' what Julie said. It was as if a huge thorn tip had hit his heart. After shaking his body several times, he covered his head, which was slightly dizzy due to the huge impact, and asked tremblingly: "Julie... you said... what, Are you...confused?"

Julie smiled, and the sarcastic expression on her face was like it was stamped by a master stone carver, obvious and profound.

"Didn't I make it clear enough? I don't want to live with a dog anymore."
