Lord of Hyranza

Jasper smiled reservedly, and said, "Okay, don't make me wait too long, or you won't know what you missed!"

……

The next day, Suldak rode out of Hailansa City alone. Although he knew beforehand that Karl and the four support teams were hiding in the dark, he did not find any trace of them outside the city.

The leaves of the oak trees in the mountains have fallen, and there are bare branches everywhere. The woodland is covered with a thick layer of leaves, and some golden acorns are also buried under these leaves. The mountain road is also full of leaves. Stepping on it made a rustling sound.

The snow from the previous few days has completely melted away, and only the remaining snow can be seen on the north slope. A layer of frozen soil was formed under the leaves, and when the next heavy snow fell, it would not melt so easily.

Suldak rode a Gubolai horse until noon on the mountain road leading to Wall Village. His intuition told him that no one was following him, and he walked a little further, but still had no gains. , Suldak himself is also thinking about this matter. If the other party is replaced by himself, he will probably not be fooled by such an obvious trap. These people swallowed it in one gulp, or they were forced to go to the point where they couldn't sleep or eat without killing themselves.

Members of the support team then appeared on the top of a distant mountain. He held a flag in his hand and waved vigorously at Surdak—the return journey.

It has been like this for three days in a row. After wandering on the mountain road until noon, I have to go back the same way, so that I can return to Hailansa City before the city gate is closed. I haven’t gained anything in these three days, and I haven’t even found any clues. Look It seems that the other party is not as stupid as I expected, and the action plan of the support squadron may directly fall into the eyes of the other party.

At the beginning, the young people in the support team were very motivated, but they couldn't find any hair for three consecutive days, and these team members inevitably became a little slack.

When returning to Hailansa City in the evening of the third day, the members of the Support Squadron seemed a little listless. Anyone who has blown the cold wind in the mountains for three consecutive days and still got nothing, probably will not be in a good mood.

After entering the city gate, Karl ordered everyone to disband on the spot and to rest for two days. Suldak also stayed at the Knight Academy to continue his classes.

Because Karl wanted to arrange for the four teams monitoring Baron Grenfell's manor to return to High Lansa City and send new teams to take turns.

Moreover, Mrs. Christie also brought back some new news from Grenfell Manor. Karl wanted to know if there was enough evidence in it to prove that Baron Grenfell had something to do with the Black Magic Retreat. Once he could prove it, he could apply The search warrant of the aristocrats arrested the gang of robbers lurking in the manor.

……

During these three days, Jasper and the remaining members of the support team followed the guard battalion to conduct a large-scale search operation in the city of Hailansa, but found out that some noble teenagers secretly contacted the magicians of the Black Magic Priory, While eager to gain power, many teenagers secretly learn black magic. After learning these black magic, they can't be seen at ordinary times. They just leave the mark of black magic on their bodies, which will only manifest when they are used.

Apparently, the Black Magic Retreat had reached out into the noble circle of Hailansa. After hearing the news, the black magic propagator hid long ago. Only a few noble children who learned black magic were found in the guard camp.

At the same time, the magicians from the Law Enforcement Team of the Magic Union in Hailansa City came to the door and asked the guard battalion to hand over these noble children who had learned black magic to the Magic Union, but the guard battalion also had their own concerns. Too many nobles were involved in this matter, and it is impossible to suppress this matter quietly now, but it is impossible to let the magicians take these noble youths away directly.

For a long time, there have been many conflicts between the old noble forces of the Green Empire and the new forces of the magician nobles. Although they have not been intensified, the old nobles and the magician nobles are not in harmony. Taking away the young man was a big blow to the old aristocratic forces, so the city has been very lively these past few days, and this incident even caused trouble in the Hailansa City Council.

Chapter 337 Bait and Prey

'How could it not be found...'

Darcy Christie couldn't figure out why there was no information about Knight Suldak in the list of instructors at the Knight Academy. Could it be that he changed his name after returning to Hailansa City?

She stood a little restlessly under the sycamore tree with fallen leaves, staring at the pedestrians coming in and out of the campus gate, her eyes were a little cloudy.

The wind was a little cold, she tightened the knitted shawl on her body, her nose was a little red from the cold, and her eyes were still stubbornly looking at the gate of the college.

In the past few days, Darcy Christie lingered at the entrance of the Knight Academy until dusk almost every day, and then reluctantly rode home in a carriage. No information about Suldak could be found in the faculty files of the academy. She was right at the entrance of the academy. It was already the third day when Suldak appeared again. In order to find this hated knight, she even turned down two balls.

She touched the saber at her waist, and the cold touch on the silver hilt made her more sober.

"Don't let hatred blind your eyes, Darcy, you have to calm down, calm down..."

She kept admonishing herself in her heart, but she was unwilling to move no matter what. There seemed to be a voice whispering to her in her subconscious: "Wait a little longer, wait a little longer, and you will definitely see her. When the time comes, you will rush to see her." Go up, slap him twice, and stab his body with a sword. If he dares to resist, he will be sent to the prison in Hailansa City, where he will be squatting obediently for a few months. Since you dare to come to the city of Hailansa, no matter what you do, it's up to Darcy Christie to decide...'

"Daxi, do you want to go to the Insta's dance together tonight?"

The voice of her colleague Xilia woke Daxi up from her ramblings. She looked along the voice and saw Xilia standing beside her, looking at her expectantly.

Although Darcy knew that Miss Helia hoped that she could go to the ball with her, she could only lower her head slightly, avoiding her expectant gaze, and said, "Sorry, Kathy, I have an appointment with a friend tonight. "

"That's it... well, I wish you a good night, I'm leaving first, I hope I can meet someone who doesn't look so scumbag at this dance." Xilia smiled and said to Darcy Christie, and then He shook his hand at her, turned around and walked out of the academy alone.

The sky gradually darkened, and the number of people in front of the college gate gradually decreased. When Darcy Christie was about to go home, there were no pedestrians at the gate. Darcy Christie tightly grasped the saber at her waist, secretly thinking Swear inside: 'Watch it!I will definitely find you. '

……

Suldak rode his horse into an alley, and the afterglow of the setting sun cast a long slanted shadow on many buildings in this alley.

The clothesline on the roof protrudes from the fence, and the white sheets hang on the clothesline like flags fluttering in the wind. The pigeon cages that grow out of the windows reveal dim lights inside the wooden house, drifting in the alley With a faint smell of fried meat, the place is full of the breath of life.

When Gu Bolai stepped into a puddle, the splashed sewage fell on the dirty walls, making this somewhat quiet alley make strange noises, Suldak's heart suddenly tightened for no reason, as if Clenched tightly by an invisible big hand, Suerdak covered his heart with his hand in pain and almost fell off the horse.

Almost at the same time, he realized that something was wrong. Thinking that he had returned to the Knight Academy by this road for three consecutive days, it was likely that he had fallen into the eyes of the stalkers.

Those stalkers knew that their going out of the city was a trap set by the support squadron. After entering the city every night, the guards were the most lax. The guard battalion organized a large-scale raid in the city of Hailansa in the past few days. The knights of the guard battalion of the Magic Priory, no one thought that they would dare to attack in the city, and set the ambush location in this remote and quiet alley.

Out of the corner of Suldak's eyes, he saw a figure on the left side of his body. Suddenly, a figure grew out of the shadow near the corner of the wall. Being restrained, or this time the situation was worse than last time, his limbs seemed to be frozen, and he fell from the horse while holding his heart in his hands.

It's the damn dark binding magic again, those assassins of the Black Magic Priory are really like tarsal maggots, and they can't get rid of it completely.

The black dagger and black shadow gradually solidified. Seeing that figure was as agile as a cheetah, Suldak's face was a bit ferocious. He didn't plan to bury himself in this alley, even though he didn't have any blessings on him. , but he still has that sacred aura in his body. He opened his eyes wide and focused on lighting up the nodes in his body. Then his body suddenly became brighter, and a faint golden light came out from his shoulders. getting brighter...

At this moment, the darkness that imprisoned his body melted as quickly as ice and snow, and those shadows shrank back into the darkness again.

The black figure pounced on him also seemed to sense the sacred aura of Suldak, he let out a sharp and ear-piercing howl, the black shadow on his body evaporated under the sacred aura, but the black figure still moved toward Su. A black dagger stabbed out of Erdak's heart.

At this moment, Suldak's stiff body was finally able to move. He tried his best to twist his body in mid-air, but the speed of getting the black figure was too fast, and the sharp dagger still pierced into his left rib, sticking against him. If I hadn’t retracted my abdomen and inhaled at the critical moment, I’m afraid that the abdomen would be cut open by the black shadow at this time, and the monster’s leather armor on his body was as fragile as a piece of paper under the blade of the black dagger. .

The black shadow met the golden light on Suldak's body, and seemed to have been inexplicably hurt. His materialized figure was constantly steaming with black energy. It was not a human shadow. Suldak pulled out his waist. The sword of the craftsman in the middle knocked away the black dagger that stabbed again at the critical moment, and his body fell heavily on the stone floor in the alley. Take gold stars.

But at this moment, he could only grit his teeth to keep himself awake. The craftsman's sword in his hand burst out with a faint golden light, and he faced the black figure who was rushing again. Holding two long horns like antelope, that face is like an aged goat, the dead fish-like eyes are full of viciousness and hatred, the neat teeth seem to be smiling, but the smile is distinctly frozen On the face, it was terrifying.

Sombra's body is in the shape of a human, but he is stronger than the people of the Green Empire. His legs are a pair of hooves, which not only make him full of explosive power, but also have an amazing jumping ability. The sheep-faced devil's legs were like springs, causing his body to bounce high, and this jump almost jumped to the roof.

The sheep-faced devil smiled strangely at Suldak, and fell into the shadows again. Suldak struggled to stand up from the ground, the blood from the wound on his waist stained his trousers red, Suldak The palm of his left hand exuded a faint light, covering the wound on his abdomen, and quickly ran towards the exit of the alley with the craftsman's sword in his hand.

At this time, Hailansa City is definitely the city with the best law and order. Given by those noble boys who practiced black magic, the guard battalion launched a large-scale raid against the Black Magic Priory. Suldak knew that he had run away. Going out of this alley, it is possible to call the knights of the nearby guard battalion.

But at this time, he stepped out and stepped on the shadow, as if countless arms stretched out from the shadow, trying to pull his feet.

Suldak's feet also had a faint golden glow, and the arms in the shadows turned into black mist and disappeared as soon as they touched the power of the holy light.

There was another wave in the shadow beside him, and the sheep-faced devil seemed to step out of the void suddenly, and the dagger in his hand stabbed silently at the back of Suldak's heart. It was like a twisted clockwork bursting suddenly, and the whole figure was ejected from the darkness. Suldak had been prepared for a long time. He put the dwarf chain shield in his magic waist bag on his arm, and firmly blocked the sheep. A backstab from the devil in the face.

Suldak swung his sword and slashed at the sheep-faced devil, but the sheep-faced devil suddenly exploded into a cloud of black mist and disappeared into the shadows again.

Gu Bolaima was waiting a dozen steps ahead, and Suldak ran towards Gubolaima. Regardless of the danger of his abdominal wound being torn open, he quickly ran to Gubolaima's side, got on his horse, He rode Gu Bolai's horse and rushed towards the entrance of the alley.

Fortunately, Suldak has the experience in fighting evil spirits, and he managed to defuse the attack of the sheep-faced devil twice. However, the wound on his abdomen has become a little numb at this time, and because of the loss of blood, he feels that his body is hurting. As it kept getting colder, he knew that the sheep-faced devil was hiding in the shadows, staring at him.

But the sheep-faced devil has never understood one thing. He is actually just a heavy armored shield warrior who can ride a horse, not a heavy cavalry in the true sense. His mastery of the shield also makes him have stronger anti-assassination capabilities... …

At the moment when Gu Bolaima was about to rush to the entrance of the alley, the bondage in the darkness tightly entangled Suldak again, and the dark bondage that appeared this time was no longer an entangled shadow belt, It was a dark vine that emerged from the shadows, and it continued to grow in the darkness. Those vines kept wrapping around Suldak's body. At the same time, he heard the sound of whispering incantations from mid-air .

At this moment, Suldak finally saw a magician in a black robe standing on a high terrace in the alley behind him. His eyes were like two obsidian stones in the night, frantically absorbing Looking at the endless darkness, and the spell in his mouth is the source of the power of the black vines growing from the shadow, the ebony staff in his hand exudes the halo of black magic, Suldak's intuition Tell him that the sheep-faced goblin that lurks in the shadows is also his summoned minion.

He is a true black mage in the black magic hermitage. In his low-pitched spell, black vines bound Suldak like a cocoon, and at this time, the sheep-faced devil also At the same time, it appeared behind Suldak.

Almost at the same moment, behind Suldak was a phantom of a demon god with two faces and four arms, and finally released his 'power' at a critical moment, and the phantom of the demon god burst into a ball of blood in the eyes of the holy face. The dazzling holy light instantly evaporated the vines wrapped around Suldak full of strong dark aura. Suldak was freed from the bondage, and then used the shield in his hand to block the dagger in the hand of the sheep-faced devil.

Unleashing the 'potential', both strength and stamina were improved at this moment. The craftsman's sword in Suldak's hand exploded with a foot-long golden light, and he cut off the black mane in the hand of the sheep-faced devil with one blow. Dagger, and also stabbed the craftsman's sword into the body of the sheep-faced devil.

But the black magician standing on the balcony in the alley raised his head at this time, and looked towards Suldak from a distance, still whispering in his mouth: "Sin begets sin, just like man... ...'

In his indifferent eyes, he saw that the sheep-faced devil summoned from the flame hell was killed by the knight with the power of the holy light, completely turned into black mist and dissipated in the evening air, and the black magic The summoning circle arranged around the teacher exploded one after another, and seven black magic crystals exploded one after another, turning into black powder.

"Damn it, Samya, a stupid woman, has caused such trouble. No wonder the Warangal assassination failed..."

The black mage cursed angrily, but he casually took out a magic bamboo handle from his pocket. He rode on the magic bamboo handle, holding a magic wand in his hand, and plundered towards Suldak at the entrance of the alley.

Suldak turned his head and saw the black mage flying out of the alley, but a demon servant summoned by him almost killed himself, how could he dare to stay where he was and fight head-to-head with the black mage , hastily patted Gu Bolai's horse's butt vigorously. This old horse has also experienced several life-and-death battles with Suldak, and immediately raised its four hooves and ran from the alley to the street. He ran towards the Knight Academy.

The direction where Suldak is running is not only the knight academy, but also the fringe area of ​​the wealthy area of ​​Hailansa City. There is a magic tower on it, which is regarded as the residence of the magic union in Hailansa City.

The black mage saw the direction in which Suldak was escaping, and rode a magic horn to give chase.

This alley is only two streets away from the Knight Academy. Suldak rode his horse and fled all the way to the gate of the Knight Academy. He originally wanted to continue to escape in the direction of the Magic Union, but the magic of the black mage Jun was a little faster than his horse, and flew around in front of Suldak after a short flight. He landed on the roof of a two-story building opposite the Knight Academy, and a black smoke emerged from the magic wand in his hand. Air fireball.

After the magician finished chanting the spell, the fireball hit Suldak a hundred meters away.

Seeing the rolling fireball, Suldak could only rein in Gu Bolai's horse. He jumped off the horse and rushed into the gate of the Knight Academy covered in blood.

A familiar figure flashed in Darcy Christie's eyes. Under the night, she didn't even see that Suldak's lower body was covered with blood, but saw him running into the Knight Academy in a panic with a pale face. Sy Christie's eyes widened, she stared at the extremely tired Suldak, and ran to Suldak desperately, ready to rush up and slap him hard.

"If he dares to resist, let the guard battalion knights patrolling outside arrest him..." Thinking of this, Darcy Christie felt a little relieved.

Chapter 338 Sleeping Cloud

'boom'

A black fireball exploded from behind Suldak, as if an invisible big hand pushed behind Suldak, and Suldak threw himself forward involuntarily, followed by a wave of heat Wrapping him all over, he fell to the ground all at once.

A certain sealed door in his mind was also broken by the fire wave at this moment, and the tide of memory surged out with countless broken pictures. Suldak felt that many blurred things in his memory suddenly became clear. In my memory, I was struggling helplessly in a sea of ​​flames, but those eyes were looking at the north firmly.

Surrounded by flames, Suldak quickly rolled twice on the ground, struggling to stand up.

His body was covered in dust, and the cuffs and neckline of his shirt were on fire, and he slapped his hands twice before putting out the fire on his body.

The fire was not completely extinguished, and the monster leather armor on his body was still emitting black smoke, sparks were flying, and he looked as embarrassed as he wanted.

It was also at this time that a female swordsman rushed out from the gate of the academy. She almost rushed towards Suldak. Looking from a distance, the people around thought it was the instructors from the academy rushing to help. ...

The black magician standing on the roof across the street from the Knight Academy saw a female swordsman rushing out of the Knight Academy, and his heart sank. He thought that Suldak must have come here to find helpers. It was even more difficult to kill Suldak, so he waved his staff again, chanting a jerky spell, a black crack was propped up by the dark hexagram circle under his feet, and a black flame burst out from the crack, That group of flames carried a terrifying aura of destruction.

The black mage condensed three black flame fireballs around him, and after he finished reciting the spell, the three black smoke fireballs rushed towards Suldak in a string.

Dacie Christie rushed out from under the sycamore tree of the college, rushed in front of Suldak, and was about to slap him twice, but unexpectedly, the magician on the roof across the street actually took the lead and shot Suerdak with a fireball. Erdak exploded.

Just when she had a schadenfreude expression on her face, she saw three fireballs with black smoke flying towards her from the opposite roof. She quickly jumped aside.

Three fireballs exploded under Suldak's feet one after another. Dacie Christie was not able to go far in time, and was also affected by the black flame fireball, and fell on the lawn in a very embarrassing state.

A group of trainee knights from the academy just happened to run up behind them, and everyone hurriedly helped Daxi up, and a student who had no brains actually shouted loudly: "It's Daxi instructor, there are people from the Magic Academy sneaking up on the entrance of the academy." Instructor Daxi, go and call someone!"

Darcy Christie wanted to gag this student at this moment, and this matter had nothing to do with her.

"Instructor Daxi, are you alright?" the trainee knights asked with concern.

Dacie Christie's face was livid, she shook her head vigorously, and stood up straight.

She looked up at the roof across the street, wondering who was chasing and killing Suldak. She knew several young magicians in the magic union, but this magician not only had a strange face, but also had no magic in the magic robe. A hint of doubt appeared on her face.

"Isn't that the clerk knight of our academy? I'll go help." The mindless student shouted and ran towards Suldak.

Dasuldak got up from the lawn, billowing black smoke all over his body, looking at him as if he had experienced a fire.

Fortunately, he was carrying a dwarf chain shield in his hand, which could always protect the vitals of his body when the black flame fireball exploded.

Suldak didn't expect that someone would rush to help him at such a time. He looked at Dacie Christie. The person looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him...

The black magician wanted to cast more powerful magic, but found that in just a short while, many people gathered at the gate of the academy.

Moreover, the two guards at the gate of the college were standing in front of the gate and blowing their whistles desperately. The young apprentice knights who had gathered on the playground of the college gathered at the gate of the college one after another. There were several instructors from the college among the crowd, and they rushed towards the gate like a tide. The gate rushed in, and there were still people in the crowd who kept asking: "Who is causing trouble at the gate of the academy?"

Someone said: "... a magician? These magician nobles are really getting more and more presumptuous."

There was also a sharp whistle on the street, it was the whistle of the knights in the guard battalion, and a series of horseshoes sounded from a distance.

At the same time, a magic flare blew up in the sky above the street in front of the Knight Academy. The dark red halo was particularly eye-catching at dusk. In the direction of the magic tower, there were already magicians from the law enforcement team galloping away on magic handles. Come on, looking at the black shadows constantly flying from the top of the magic tower in the distance, at this moment, the black mage standing on the roof of the Knight Academy couldn't help but feel a headache.

He took out a bottle of black powder from his arms with some distress, and sprinkled it on the black hexagram circle around his body at the fastest speed. He saw a black flame erupting from the black hexagram circle, and these flames formed in front of the black magician. A terrifying devil's face, and then the black mage chanted a spell, stretched out his withered arm, cut his arm with a black devil's horn, and dripped dark red blood on this huge devil's face On, dripping with blood.

The blood flowed across the devil's face as if it were alive, leaving behind a series of bloody runes.

"A black mage... ah! That's a black mage..." people around shouted in panic.

When the blood of the black mage finally painted the devil's face with runes, the devil's face suddenly opened its eyes. They were a pair of incomparably empty eyes, with a smile on its thick lips, and two sharp fangs came from The mouth was exposed, and the mouth of the devil's face followed the black magician's loud curse sound.

'The joys of mankind bow before pain, the truth is buried in the shroud of lies, ruler of hell!Please open your eyes and let down the clouds of sleep...'

All the mana in his body was emptied, the black mage's haggard old face showed a sickly flush, a black cloud spread from the black mage's feet, the black cloud was like an ever-expanding ring, black Where the cloud passed by, everyone could not escape, like a strong hypnotic potion, those who rushed towards the black magician at the gate of the knight academy fell continuously in the black cloud.

'Not death, but sleep'

The black magician turned his head and glanced at the magician of the law enforcement team who was approaching, and rode towards Suldak on the magic stick. His mana had been exhausted, and the magic stick rushed down in the air, and he would lie on the ground and fell asleep. Suldak picked up the magic handle and was about to ride away on the magic handle. Then he turned his head and glanced at Darcy Christie who was not far away.埽把...

Just before the magician from the Magic Union Law Enforcement Team arrived, the black magician rode a magic scorpion into the narrow alley, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Chapter 339 Falling into the Forest

A ray of light in the darkness made Suldak's body look like a transparent empty bottle suspended in a quiet void.

That ray of light caused countless nodes in Suldak's body to release traces of sacred aura, and the sacred aura formed a nebula in the nodes, slowly rotating around a certain point in Suldak's body, and the sacred aura gradually It nourishes Suldak's body and dispels the dark breath in his body.

Until the last trace of dark breath in his body was expelled, Suldak felt his consciousness returned to his body. Although he was still bound by an invisible force, like being trapped in a nightmare and unable to wake up, but the body's five senses were Returning to the body a little bit, something is pressing on the body, making myself a little out of breath, the wind outside is very strong, it feels like hanging on a rickety tree branch, the violent north wind almost freezes the body up.

Suldak opened his eyes, it was pitch black in front of him, and the dark mountains were right under him. Suldak finally realized that he was lying on the handle of a magic scorpion, and his body was pressed by a soft body. His face was almost touching the black mage's thigh, and he was riding on the handle of the magic scorpion, flying in the mountains.

The flying height of the black magician is only slightly higher than the treetops, and he does not dare to fly too fast at night, and keeps rising and falling according to the terrain.

Suldak could feel that the black mage's breathing was very disordered, and there would be a violent cough from time to time. Every time the black mage coughed, the magic horn would shake violently, as if falling from the sky at any time. The magician was in poor health, and under the cover of the night, he didn't realize that Suldak had woken up.

Suldak didn't dare to sit still and wait for the black magician to return to his territory. At that time, he might not even have the last chance to escape. He didn't dare to move excessively. Every time he bumped, he would move a little until his body His hand touched the dagger tied to his thigh, and Suldak pulled out the dagger without a sound, aimed at the back of the black magician and stabbed it fiercely.
