Dawn was approaching, and Lucian had less than three hours left.The only time he can leave for himself to explore the secret path is these.

Vader will be back the day after tomorrow, no matter what, Lucian will have to find a way to enter Vader's study tomorrow, and it will take more time to find the blueprint.Considering that the spirit is getting more and more exhausted...

He can't waste any more time on secret passages!

Lucian squinted his eyes, and decided to make a final effort on the last two secret passages.

He first entered the secret passage corresponding to the candlestick.After walking many stone steps, he arrived at a secret library - full of all kinds of forbidden books, from real history to forbidden magic.Normally, Lucian would be very happy to see this place.

But now they meant nothing to him.

The secret passage based on the clock that he had placed high hopes on was all the way down.The place it leads to is sealed by a well-built stone wall, as if to cover up something... This secret passage gave Lucian an extremely uneasy feeling, and he trusted his intuition decisively, Go back to the room and seal the entrance.

All explorations have failed.

Seeing that the sky has brightened up.Morning at the castle began again.Lucian let himself lie down on the carpet in frustration.After a night of excitement, his nerves were finally exhausted. He half-closed his eyes and wanted to rest for a while...

It was at this time that he saw a bright spot in the decorative fireplace in the room.

A strong premonition flooded Lucian's heart.He seemed to wake up completely at that moment.

He confirmed that no one would enter the room at this time, and then quietly pressed the lock, and tentatively stretched out his hand to turn it around according to a certain pattern.

creak.

creak.

It was the sound of the secret passage being opened.

Lucian walked into the secret passage, his body was extremely exhausted, supported by an intuitive excitement.Through the wall of the secret passage, his five senses, which had been sharpened by becoming a succubus, heard the sound outside the wall... It was the sound of guards walking by.

Go left, go straight, go right...

Lucian's spirit became more and more tense.

That's right, it's this direction!

The direction that fits perfectly with the memory!

Finally, the small door symbolizing the exit appeared in front of him.Lucian quietly pushed the small door open a little.

The scene he was looking forward to appeared in front of his eyes.

He saw it.

It was full of books, belonging to Vader's study.

The exit at the other end of the secret passage is also the decorative fireplace in the study.Lucian carefully climbed out of the fireplace, and the study room was empty at the moment.

Only the sunlight coming in through the window.

Lucian raised his eyes and saw rows of books and those drawers.He remembered that when Vader used to be at the Sissel Manor, he would often put his design drawings in the book of spells and machines that inspired him.

There are only about 24 hours until Vader returns!

He must hurry!

The first thing Lucian scanned was the bookshelf.There are too many books in the study room, more than one entire wall, and books of the same category are placed in the same place.He couldn't tell which books were Vader's own and which belonged to the king here, so he had to read the spines of them one by one.

"World landscapes, world cultures..."

"Elves, undead, novels..."

"Sociology, military, history, forging, alchemy, potion..."

"Mechanical, ship, magic...Magic machinery? Spell circuit...Seal?"

Lucian finally found the kind of books he was looking for on the mahogany bookshelf at the edge!

These books were neatly arranged on the bookshelves, and many of them contained paper bookmarks, most of which were Vader's notes.Lucian took a deep breath to calm himself down.

——He thanked himself for his erudition and knowledge when he was the Son of God. Many of this book are written in ancient languages ​​that have been lost and languages ​​of other tribes.If someone else is here, I'm afraid they won't even understand what these books are.

But there are just too many books here.It is also very difficult to quickly find the book you need.Just as Lucian took out the eighth book and flipped through it, there was a noise from the yard downstairs.

At that moment Lucian realized that it was almost noon.

It's almost time for the maids to visit him!

He could only quickly put the book back in his hand, and carefully restored all the traces of his visit.But very good, now that there are secret passages, these are not problems.He could probably get into the study through the secret passage next time.

Just as he was about to leave, a wind passed through the window, blowing through several pages of the book Vader had spread out on the table.Lucian took a look at it and decided not to restore it.

But it was precisely this glance that allowed him to see what Vader had written on that page.

"Lucien Sissel"

"incubus"

His name and the scientific name of the succubus penetrated the back of the paper, bloody with red ink, as if exuding extreme hatred.

Lucian: ...

"It's really scary." He muttered in a low voice, got down on his body, and got into the secret passage.

He returned to Vader's bedroom from the secret passage as quickly as possible.Coincidentally, when he arrived in the room and just restored everything to the original state, the maids also happened to come in at this time.

While this tightrope-walking behavior brought a strong sense of tension, it also gave Lucian a bit of pleasure from this stimulation.

The maids came here just to clean the room and confirm Lucian's status.After confirming that Lucian was safe, they started cleaning.

After the maids left, Lucian could no longer restrain his excitement.His pale cheeks were stained pink, and his wine-red eyes were shining.What he saw in the study just now lingered in his mind and couldn't get rid of it.

As long as he can find the blueprint, he can quickly recover his mana and escape from here!

After all, Lucian is the Son of God. Although he is not as good as Vader in terms of melee combat, his proficiency in spells is definitely one of the very few people who are outstanding among the human race.As long as Vader is not around, the entire palace will not be his opponent who is fully prepared.

These few months in the castle were not in vain, and now, he already had a basic understanding of the various paths in the palace.As long as he undoes the ankle ring that seals his mana, he will be able to leave the palace immediately!

Then the sky is high and the clouds are wide.This time, he would find a place to hide, and then Vader would never be able to find him again.The identity of the succubus is indeed a bit troublesome, but he will find a way to find a spell to hide his appearance and hide.

As for those "important people" belonging to other races besides Vader, Lucian will keep a low profile and be careful not to approach or provoke them.

In the end, An An settled down and waited for the system to return... This was the escape plan that Lucian had set for himself.

Thinking of the bright future that was just around the corner, Lucian was extremely happy.He lay on the sofa, hugging the pillow, trying to use it to cover the smile on his face.

Moreover, after he escapes, Vader should also know that his "soul" has returned, right?It's such a pity, after so many days, not only did Vader fail to discover the fact that he had returned, but he also made another one... Just thinking about Vader's expression after he knew the truth, Lucian felt excited and excited. fun.

There are even some malicious little expectations.

But this time he will be more cautious and will not return to Wangcheng.Well... I had to sacrifice my hobbies.

Thinking of this, he felt a little regretful.

Now the remaining time is too late for him to return to the study before the palace people push him out to bask in the sun.The drowsiness that lasted from last night to today finally swept over, Lucian hugged the cushion and fell asleep in a daze.

Before going to sleep, he looked at Vader's empty bed not far away.For a while, he was not used to it.

In the past, when Li Vader slept in this room, he always felt that it was too oppressive.But now that Vader is not here, he is a little uncomfortable.

But this is just a little unaccustomed.Once he escaped, he would soon enjoy his solitary life and the beauty of the Continent, and forget the wonderful months Vader had given him.

Thinking of this, Lucian fell asleep happily.

In the afternoon, the palace people pushed Lucian out in a wheelchair to bask in the sun as usual.

Because the garden is being repaired, the palace people changed the walking route.The few hours of nap at noon had restored some of Lucian's energy. He half-closed his eyes, pretending to be dazed, but secretly looking at this brand new route that he had never taken before.

This road that was unintentionally walked out by the palace people can be described as desolate and remote.It is precisely because of this that the craftsmen who come and go are busy repairing the garden and some buildings will not be bumped into.

The palace people chatted in low voices, unaware of the vision of the white-haired young man who was being pushed by them.

——A small door not far away.

A... small door guarded by orc guards.

From Vader's dormitory to here, there are five checkpoints to go through, and here is the fifth.

If he remembered correctly, this small door leads to the jungle behind the castle.

Good for hiding in the jungle.

The corners of Lucian's lips curved slightly.

The guards guarding this small gate are led by an orc guard.The orc guard had a scar on his forehead, and he was holding hands at the moment, reprimanding a few lazy subordinates.

His eyebrows were much darker than before, and Lucian could see a bit of ambition in his eyes.

Lucian remembered his name.

Calvin.

The orc guard who was assigned by Vader to carry him to the prison and was "hinted" by him in the tower.

What a coincidence.He thought with a smile.

After Calvin reprimanded the group of subordinates, he wiped the sweat off his head.Even though it was already autumn, the beast body was hot and dry, and the bright sunlight still made him sweat a little.He looked at the sky and thought of the land of the orcs in the grassland desert, tents, stone cities, mottled totems, sacrifices in the autumn night, and more casual and enthusiastic than the complicated etiquette of the human race...

Suddenly, he remembered that...beautiful taboo trapped in the tower.

It was different from any orc, soft and lively.The beauty of the semi-succubus, the exquisite etiquette of the human race, the identity of the holy son tainted by corruption, and the identity of the "forbidden scorpion" condensed with a powerful superior...

Can not be expected.

The orc lowered his eyes and unconsciously looked in the direction of the emperor's bedroom again.He knew that Lucian was there.

He often went there, but at this moment, even his bones and blood froze.

He thought he was hallucinating.

The white-haired beauty was pushed away by several palace servants.As dusk fell, Spencer, the butler, had said that he would be bathed in the evening.

In the dim twilight, Calvin saw Lucian in a trance... and seemed to smile at him.

This must be his hallucination, he thought.

In the evening wind of the return trip, Lucian leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, enjoying the warm twilight.

His red lips turned up, the palace people thought he was dreaming of something sweet, and they were all careful not to make a sound.

Lucian likes ambitious people.

Ambitious people have their weaknesses.

People with their weaknesses are easy to be exploited.

The author has something to say:

after falling off

Lucian: Why are you so angry, you can make up for whatever you want (I'm a three-body person anyway)

Vader: ...

Lucian: What do you want?money?that power?conquer the world?Or change the world to live?Um, do you want a harem? I can ask the system to pinch dozens of beautiful girls and boys with different personalities...

Vader: ………… (the anger value gradually increases)

later

Lucian: I never thought that Vader is actually a love brain(.)
