Tyrant Code

The black wizard in the cloak maintained his posture of holding Gordo hostage until there was a loud knock on the door.

"People inside, please open the door!" Someone shouted, "We are searching for dark wizards!"

Just as Goldo was about to speak, he heard the black wizard shout in a specially low voice: "...don't come in!"

The knock on the door paused for a moment, and then there was a "bang", and the door was suddenly kicked open.

Several men holding oil lamps and swords hesitated for a moment while seeing the scene clearly in the house. The man who shouted before frowned, pulled out his sword, and aimed at the black wizard: "Let go of him!"

The dagger in the black wizard's hand instantly got closer to Gordon's artery.Because a layer of skin had been cut before, there was a faint bloodstain on his neck, which was especially shocking under the dim light.

Several guards of the patrol team showed a visibly apprehensive look.

It's not that Goldo's status is so noble. In fact, His Royal Highness who has stayed in the main hall is the real treasure.But the bad thing about this matter is that Gordo is a student sent by the seminary to participate in the league, a talent from the Celanca Empire, and he is a noble... If such a person has an accident in Simmons, then the officials here One counts as one, and all of them must be held accountable.

...Compared to doing meritorious service, it is more important to save Gordo first.

So, contrary to the expectations of the black wizard, the captain of the leading patrol team only thought for a moment, and then ordered someone to open a road for him——

"I advise you not to hurt him, dark wizard." The patrol captain frowned and warned sternly.

...It was really so simple to let him go?

The black wizard couldn't believe it.Fortunately, his black hood covered his features and all the expressions on his face.He gritted his teeth, seized the opportunity, held Gordon in his hands, and walked out the door bit by bit, but no one stopped him.

He asked the patrolmen to retreat five meters away from him, and walked down the stairs with Gordon.It went very well.Until they passed the main hall—

The students and instructors of the seminary all set their sights on the dark wizard and Gordo at the same time, with expressions of worry or disbelief.And one of the young men with blond hair and emerald eyes had a serious face, looking at the dark wizard as if he was staring at a dead person, making the wizard in the cloak stand on end.

"Gordo, are you... held hostage by him?" Salem said with some doubts as if he had seen some puzzling scene.

"As you can see." Gordon sighed pretentiously, "I must be too unlucky."

There are so many rooms, but the dark wizard picked the one he lives in... Isn't it really unlucky.

But from the point of view of the dark wizard, it was a complete jackpot.

"What can we do!" Elise, the only girl in the team, whispered, "Teacher, please save him!"

Wearing a white nightgown, Atricia's blond hair was tied obliquely and draped over her shoulders. She looked up and down Gordo coldly, and Gordo blinked twice in response.

After confirming that Gordo was intentionally held hostage, Atricia had no intention of cooperating with acting at all.He rolled his eyes and stopped looking at Gordon, and he played the image of a hard-hearted, ruthless mentor to the fullest.

And Huonuo, who was standing aside, had already started to quietly look for a wrench from his tool bag.

Fortunately, Sai Lun saw it in time, stopped him calmly, and asked angrily, "What are you doing?"

"Of course it's to save lives." Xiu Nuo lowered his voice, and said a few words from his lips anxiously, "You can't just do nothing!"

"Save what?" Sai Lun also saw that Goldo was doing it on purpose. He paused and said, "It's best to do nothing. Do you understand what it means to startle the snake? This black wizard has an unknown origin." , None of us know what method he will use. What if you anger him and implicate Gordo, then what should we do?"

Xiu Nuo took a deep breath.

The black wizard quickly left the hall under the watchful eyes of the seminary students and walked towards the side door.

Although the patrol team promised that as long as he did not harm the hostages, they would let him go.But in fact, those few guards followed very closely. If the black wizard didn't often call them back, they would unknowingly form an encirclement circle, blocking roads in every direction.

Gordon saw the difficulty of the patrol team, and asked in a low voice: "What are you going to do next?"

"... Go to the alley that turns right after half a street. My partners should be there. I will let you go when I connect with them." The black wizard whispered vigilantly, and the two used this The voices comparable to mosquitoes communicate.

Goldo: "Okay. You remember to move quickly, don't let them see the flaw."

Gordon originally thought that there would be a confrontation between the two sides after a while, but what he never expected was that as soon as they walked out of the hotel, the horses of the four or five cavalrymen suddenly went crazy and threw all the guards to the ground .Then two people wearing black cloaks sprang out from nowhere, grabbed the black wizard and ran away, and one of them also got involved with Gordo by the way.After a few steps, a light carriage stopped at the corner.One of the two black cloaks rolled over and sat on the coachman's seat, and the other pushed the black wizard and Gordo into the carriage.

Dark Wizard: "No, wait—"

The black cloak that pushed him into the car: "Wait a little longer and they will catch up!"

After getting into the car, one of the black cloaks who came to rescue was visibly relieved.The black wizard, on the other hand, froze, looking at Goldo in blank dismay.

"We finally found you, Rhine. Why don't you speak?" As if to relax the atmosphere, one of them lifted the hood of his cloak, revealing handsome and gentle brown hair and brown eyes, and asked with a smile, "By the way, who is this next to you? I think you will take him with you when you run away. Could it be your new apprentice? He looks really..."

As he spoke, his gaze shifted to Gordo's face.

The black-haired boy raised his eyebrows slightly, his obsidian-like deep eyes seemed to exude a strange brilliance.His face was a little pale in the night wind, his eyelashes cast faint shadows on his cheeks, and he hesitated to speak everywhere.

The brown-haired man's smile froze instantly.

Such a young man was also wearing a nightgown of expensive fabric, so he didn't look like a black wizard's apprentice.

"...He is a student who traveled here. Thanks to his help, I was able to escape by pretending to be held hostage by me." The black wizard named Rhine covered his face and said with some frustration, "I promised him, as long as I leave Let him go immediately if he is in danger."

Brown-haired man: "..."

The brown-haired man said somewhat incomprehensibly: "So, we are—"

"It's kidnapping." Goldo affirmed his thoughts, "Now you have one more crime."

The man with brown hair and brown eyes instantly had an expression of suffocation.

"...Okay. At this point, it's useless to say anything." Rhine also lifted his hood. He has blond hair and a pair of silver-gray eyes. He looks about 25 years old. He has an elegant and bookish air, with a thin face, he really looks like a doctor, "The most important thing now is those medicines—"

Rhine was about to say something when suddenly the carriage jolted violently, as if trying to throw the people in the carriage out.

The driver shouted: "Sit tight! The next part of the road will be difficult."

The brown-haired man frowned, and just about to say something, the faint sound of horseshoes and gravel splashing on the side of the road sounded in their ears.The brown-haired man looked out and found that several guards with lamps had disappeared. He cursed subconsciously, and then said: "They have already gone to gather more men. Damn, it's just to capture a dark wizard That's all, why did they start such a big battle? Rhine, who did you bring here, could it be a nobleman?"

"My father was just awarded the earl last year." Goldo replied sincerely.

Since the Moran family moved closer to the Duke of Wellington, his father's achievements have been one after another. In just two years, he was quickly promoted to the earl, and his territory more than doubled.According to this speed, there might be hope for the Marquis before the lord's father retires.

The brown-haired man looked as if he was about to faint.

Rhine asked in disbelief, "Didn't you say you were just an ordinary student?"

"How can the students of the seminary be ordinary?" Goldo took a deep breath to relieve the discomfort caused by motion sickness, "Only you can believe such words."

Rhine was hit hard and hesitated to speak.

After a while, he lowered his head as if accepting his fate.

"Wait, God Academy..." Rhine suddenly raised his head and stared straight at Gordon, "So you are a priest, the kind who can do magic?"

Hearing this, the brown-haired man looked at Gordon with vigilant eyes.

Priests and dark wizards are natural enemies.The priests wanted to burn all the dark wizards to death and scatter their ashes.

"Yes." Gordon replied bluntly.

Rhine: "Then do you know how to purify the plague?"

Goldo: "I can treat people, but the spread of the plague can't be eradicated by more than a purification ceremony. So the symptoms are not the root cause."

Rhine: "Treating the symptoms but not the root cause... No wonder, no wonder I suppressed their illness, but new cases continue to appear..."

The brown-haired man stretched out his neck and glanced at the back, and said anxiously: "Rhein, it's come to this point, why are you still thinking about the plague? Don't you understand? We have to leave this city as soon as possible—— "

"This is not just a matter of a few lives, Andre!" Rhein argued, "You and I have studied together for so many years, you should understand that our research is directly related to the future we face. The situation at the time of the plague—"

Suddenly, the world in the carriage was spinning again.Gordon only felt that his stomach acid was churning.He couldn't bear it anymore and pulled out a silver cross from his neck, inlaid with a ruby ​​that seemed to be dripping blood.He didn't even bother to chant the spell, he frowned secretly, channeled his magic power, and pointed his fingertips at a towering pine tree at the back of the road.

With a sound of Zila, blue-purple lightning fell from the sky, cutting off the pine tree in half.The burnt smell of tree trunks is gradually diffused along with the smell of dust.

Rhine: "..."

Andre: "..."

The pine tree fell sideways at random, just in time to intercept the pursuers behind the carriage.

The driver seemed to have noticed the situation behind, and out of fear, he subconsciously slowed down the carriage.

...safety first, safety first.

The carriage gradually stabilized, and Gordon naturally felt much better.

He sighed softly, wrapped up the silver chain of the cross, put it back in his pocket, and said, "You two can continue now."
