Noble Emblem
082 Fell into the trap
There is an additional magic circle outside Dongfeng City. For ordinary people, it is just an additional source of conversation. They will discuss the origin and shape of this magic circle in the dirty tavern, and then talk nonsense about it. How powerful are the legendary braves and heroes? This small magic circle is not worth mentioning, it can be cut through with a single sword!
But in the eyes of the nobles, the appearance of this magic circle represents some kind of signal. The city lord's palace held a simple banquet the day before yesterday, and only less than twenty people were entertained. It seemed to be a normal entertainment, but the strange thing was that the nobles who attended the banquet behaved very strangely when they came back. They actually gave away a lot Bring money or special materials to the city lord's residence.
The nobles who were watching initially thought that the people attending the banquet were threatened, but then they discovered that those people actually sent their relatives to the castle... It would be normal if they sent a beautiful woman or wife in, but almost everyone They sent their entire family members in, which was very abnormal. Coupled with the sudden appearance of the magic circle today, the nobles who were watching were keenly aware that something was very wrong.
Guards who were good at intelligence and reconnaissance were sent out by each family, and soon they got the news they wanted.
There were corpses stolen from the cemetery outside the city, most likely by the Necromancer.
During the banquet held by the city lord last night, it was said that many nobles had reached a security agreement with the city lord's residence.
A new magic circle was built today!
Humans are creatures that are very good at associating. As long as they think hard enough, many clues can be connected in series. Many nobles reacted and immediately visited the city lord's mansion with gifts. The city lord and his wife watched with joy as one noble after another came to the door of their house.
Uther and Sophia do not have the concept of 'influence', but they have another plausible alternative concept: connections.
In the evening, no guests finally came to the door. Sophia sat on the balcony under the setting sun, looking at the magic circle in the distance. She gently said to her husband: "I am very happy now, but I am also very worried. .Beta's little trick is very effective, but it is so effective that I am a little scared. What is the purpose of such a genius coming to our Dongfeng City? He is not close to beauty, does not love money, and seems to have no connection with the world. He doesn’t care about power, so what on earth does he want to do?”
Regarding this question, Uther couldn't answer. He just said: "No matter what he wants to do, it will be a matter of the future. Now that he is our ally, we should hide this thought in our hearts and tolerate him. As long as The affairs of the Temple of Life are over, even if there are more forces behind Beta, we will still be able to fight."
"hope so!"
Liang Lidong didn't know that the city lord and his wife were jealous of him. He was halfway back to the mountain, followed by two magical girls and more than 20 cavalry.
Three spellcasters, plus more than 20 elite cavalry, this kind of combat power is enough to fight an outpost battle. Logically speaking, such a camp should not encounter any obstacles, but they were indeed stopped in half. On the way.
In the dim light of the setting sun, an old man wearing a green priest's robe stood in the middle of the road. He held a curved black scepter in his left hand. The top of the scepter was inlaid with a fist-sized emerald. This expensive gem reflected several rays of green light, and several of them fell on the old man's withered face, making his already gloomy expression look a little eerie.
This old man Liang Lidong knew Mark, the archbishop of the Temple of Life! Liang Lidong guessed that he should know the magic of 'Law of Cause and Effect', but he didn't understand why the other party wanted to block it here.
If he was here to cause trouble... Liang Lidong was not afraid at all. The magic of the Law of Cause and Effect was indeed powerful, but it had no effect on him. However, the opponent's level was very high. Even if Liang Lidong was not afraid of the law of cause and effect, he still had to worry about the opponent's ordinary magic.
Liang Lidong had always wanted to assassinate this old man. Now that the other party appeared here alone, it should have been a good opportunity, but Liang Lidong did not dare to do it casually. He didn't believe that the other party was a fool who dared to appear in front of the enemy alone, so there must be a monster when something went wrong. Liang Lidong had been paying attention to the surrounding environment. If anything was wrong, he would take action.
Seemingly sensing Liang Lidong's scruples, Mark smiled and said, "Your Excellency Beta, please rest assured that I don't have any bad intentions when I come this time. But I come with good intentions?"
"Goodwill?" Liang Lidong immediately took a few steps forward, walked to the front of the team, and asked, "There seems to be no misunderstanding between the Temple of Life and me. Where does the goodwill and malice come from?"
Knowing that pretending to be confused is an essential skill for nobles, Liang Lidong also knows this well.
Mark didn't seem surprised by the other party's 'quibble'. He still smiled: "Goodwill is goodwill. It doesn't have to be given to enemies, it can also be given to friends. The main reason I came here this time is to talk to you. Can you Make an appointment during your free time?"
As soon as he said these words, almost everyone's eyes moved to Liang Lidong, especially the two magical girls. They could see that Mark seemed to want to win Beta to the Temple of Life. The strength of both sides is almost the same now, but if Liang Lidong falls to the Temple of Life, the balance of strength will be broken immediately, so it is natural for Babara and others to become nervous.
Liang Lidong waved his hand: "No need, I have many things to do and don't have much time."
Mark was rejected, but he didn't care: "It doesn't matter, I happen to have a lot of time. We can talk whenever you are free."
Liang Lidong had already guessed what Mark was planning. It was clear that the wooing was fake, but in fact it was a plan to alienate. As long as the two of them continue to chat, with so many people watching around them, and they report it afterwards, they will definitely arouse the suspicion of the city lord and his wife. Although Liang Lidong didn't care about other people's opinions, if this incident put them at a disadvantage, it would have a great impact on his original plan.
Now that he knows what the other party is planning, he should counterattack. Liang Lidong took two steps back and said with a smile: "But I'm sorry, I don't have a good impression of Mr. Mark. I don't think we will ever sit down. A chance to talk.”
"Don't talk so much!" Mark said unhurriedly: "I know you are looking for someone very important, and I have clues about them!"
In the Holevan language, they and he have different pronunciations, so they are easy to distinguish.
What! Liang Lidong was stunned. His first reaction was, how did Mark know that he was looking for Persian cats and Xiaobai? The subtle change in his expression made Mark smile as if his conspiracy had succeeded.
Then a piece of paper was thrown in front of Liang Lidong: "If Mr. Beta wants to know their news, please do what is written on this piece of paper!"
After Mark threw out the note, he flew away from the place. At the same time, several priests also flew up in the mountains and forests not far from both sides of the road.
Liang Lidong quickly opened the ball of paper, but what surprised him was that the ball of paper was completely made of crumpled white paper, with not a single word on it... He was stunned for two or three seconds, and then the white paper in his hand suddenly turned into There was a piece of fly ash, which was scattered in the sunset by the wind.
Oops! Liang Lidong's face became a little ugly. He understood that he had been misled and fell into the trap of alienation.
