"What a strong magic fluctuation." Lucius clicked his tongue lightly: "It seems that you have squeezed a lot of benefits from your ex-fiancé!"

Maggie didn't show any displeasure after hearing Lucius' sarcasm, but instead sneered: "Timer and the others must have not left the inner city, don't you come here to save them?"

Lucius twitched the corner of his mouth. He was impatient. Instead of talking nonsense here, it would be faster to do it directly.

The Lord Rhine was trembling with fright, screaming almost pale, but this couldn't stop Lucius from appearing behind him in an instant.He was obviously an adult, but Lucius could squeeze his throat and lift him off the ground with just one palm.

"Lucius, let go of my father, or don't blame me for being merciless." Maggie didn't care about her father's life or death, but he was the lord of Rhine City after all.Having said that, Maggie's hand was already on the trigger, and she didn't seem to intend to let Lucius go anyway.

"Don't—don't kill me! I'll give you whatever you want... Maggie! Maggie! I'm your father, you can't let me die..." The Lord Rhine kept shaking his legs, his whole body trembling. Trembling violently, he squeezed his palms hard to breathe, rolled his eyes from time to time, and said all the words he could beg for mercy.

No matter how ugly the city lord was, the guards never looked at him, and even Maggie was indifferent.

Lucius' eyes froze, and his subordinates forcibly unscrewed the head of the Lord Rhine.The blood burst and splashed everywhere, as if the water gate was opened, and the blood vessels even made a popping sound because of the air entering.Lucius frowned and looked at the blood in his hands. The indifferent corpse was thrown aside, and he approached Maggie step by step.

The guards are not soft-legged shrimps who haven't killed anyone, but no one thinks that they can't snap a person's head off his neck like Lucius.For just a split second, everyone including Maggie felt an inexplicable fear of Lucius.As Lucius approached, the sound of the armor shaking gradually became louder, as if someone was trembling slightly.Under the pressure of Lucius, the guards standing between him and Maggie had to retreat slowly.

Lucius walked casually like a walk, and the guards who blocked the way had their throats cut by fingers with bony spurs before they could resist.

Maggie's face was a bit ugly, but Lucius' eyes were like an invisible prison, making her legs stiff.She was still able to barely aim the crossbow at Lucius, perhaps in the eyes of others, she was waiting for the right moment.But in fact, only Maggie knew that if she didn't insist, she might collapse to the ground because she couldn't bear the pressure.

The number of guards standing between Lucius and Maggie continued to decrease. Although new guards stepped forward under Maggie's call from time to time, they couldn't keep up with the speed of Lucius' massacre.The red light in his eyes became more and more intense, as if the sharp claws had sucked enough blood, they became black and shiny, exuding a chill.

"Miss Maggie, Lucius' accomplice is lurking nearby and has been captured by us..." Lucius paused for a moment when he inserted his fingers into the face of the last guard. , and then pulled out the finger.At the same time as the fingertips were pulled away, two eyeballs that were more white than black were brought out.

Immediately, someone made a retching sound.The injured guard screamed fiercely, and tears of blood flowed from the blood hole where he lost his eyes, but he couldn't do anything except cover his face with his hands.

Maggie's complacent expression soon turned gray, and there was no obstacle between Lucius and her.Although the remaining guards were still barely holding on to their posts, they only dared to surround them from a distance, but they swayed back and forth and stopped coming forward.

But Lucius couldn't take a step forward, because a leader of the guards was standing aside with the tied-up Timir, and the sharp sword was on Timir's neck.

"Lucius, leave me alone!" Timmel struggled hard, his beautiful cheeks seemed to have been ravaged not long ago, one side was slightly swollen, and the skin was torn, but the stubbornness on his face was still evident.

Looking at the small wound on Timur's neck due to the struggle, Lucius slowly lowered his hand.

Maggie's expression suddenly became relaxed again: "Lucius, I thought you were a smart person..." A black crossbow shot out of Maggie's hand, the target was not Lucius, but Timmy you.

Timir's eyes widened, and at that moment, he felt like a prey being targeted.The target of the crossbow was his heart, no matter how he struggled, the crossbow was always aimed at the same position, like a gnawing poisonous snake that made him have nowhere to escape.

Of course Timir would have this emotion of fear, but at the moment, he was more guilty.If he hadn't come back to confirm Lucius' safety, he wouldn't have become a threat to Lucius at this moment.Would Lucius feel bad if he died, would he die too? ...

Timir couldn't close his eyes at all, he watched the crossbow approaching, but was blocked by a palm.The momentum of the crossbow arrow was extremely great, even though it passed through the palm of the hand, it still shot forward some distance before stopping.Timir even felt that the tip of the crossbow arrow was touching his heart, and his skin ached slightly.

There was silence all around, only a slight gasp.

"Lucius!" Timmir murmured, like a blessed spell, he felt the power return to his body, and the guidance he had received in the dream suddenly became very clear.

The moment Lucius moved his body, he immediately tilted his head to the side in coordination, and the warm blood gushing from the throat of the leader of the guards made him feel suffocated for a short time.

While the blood was staining his face, Timmel felt a strong sense of filth, but when Lucius reached out his hand, he still leaned over without hesitation.

Lucius put his arm around Timir's shoulder, and at the same time quickly cut the hemp rope with the bone spur on his claw.

Timir's toes quickly lifted a long sword from the ground and clenched it with both hands, leaning against Lucius' back.The situation in Tursin Square the previous night was repeated, thinking of this, Timur almost laughed.I don't know if I can escape this time!

The blood from the tip of Lucius' claws fell on the ground drop by drop, making a rattling sound: "Timer, follow me!" He has only one target now——Maggie!As long as she is taken as a hostage, it shouldn't be a problem to safely evacuate to the dungeon.He smiled quietly, with the corners of his mouth raised slightly higher, with a wild and evil charm, as if Maggie was already a prey in the net.

Maggie had an illusion for a moment, as if it was not the man in front of her who was rounded up, but herself.As if the body was under control, the knuckles tightened unconsciously... two black shadows flashed away, and looking at Lucius again, he caught the two crossbow bolts in his mouth and hands respectively.

The red light in Lucius' eyes became a little dull, and he smiled strangely at Maggie.

Maggie suddenly felt her scalp tighten, and a chill came from her back that made her horrified.In the blink of an eye, she suddenly felt a pain in her throat, as if a sharp object had been pierced into her throat.Subconsciously, he touched the sore spot, and a slender hard object appeared on his smooth skin.The strength of the crossbow arrows is well controlled, if it is more forceful, Maggie will die because the arrow pierces her throat, if the strength is too light, the crossbow arrows may fall before piercing the skin.

The black crossbow fell to the ground with a bang. For the first time, Maggie felt that she was not omnipotent. Her fingers trembled uncontrollably, but she guarded the wound nearby in a daze. She didn't know whether to pull out the crossbow or let the arrow stay in her throat.

At the moment when the guards lost their minds, Lucius had already pushed Maggie's hands back in front of him.

Maggie's eyes were a little absent-minded, her lips fluttered pale, but no sound came out. Everyone could see that although she had received almost fatal injuries, they were not enough to pose a threat to life.

"Your eldest lady is not dead yet, it's up to you whether you want her to live or not!" Lucius seemingly unintentionally licked his blood-red paws, and the guards took a step back neatly as if they had been ordered, and let her Get out of the way.

Timir followed Lucius and quickly evacuated the castellan's mansion, retreating towards the dungeon.

There were guards following behind unwillingly, but they were stopped by Timir's sword threatening.

Maggie was almost unconscious, just walking around unconsciously because of Lucius' constant tugging.

Timir looked at the crossbow bolt on her throat, and turned away unconsciously.He didn't want to do this, but if they didn't, they would still be trapped in the city lord's mansion.It seems that his ideas and methods are always wrong. Why can only he act according to Lucius' method to achieve the expected effect?

Could it be that Lucius was right and he was wrong?

"Timer, help me!" Lucius didn't turn his head, he just shook his palm pierced by the crossbow arrows at Timir behind him.

Timir felt his eyes sting, and raised his sword, the feathers of the crossbow arrows had been chopped off.Compared to letting Lucius get hurt, he actually had the idea that Maggie would rather get hurt.Maybe he is really wrong, sympathy and pity are often not pleasant.Everyone's position is different, and it's never possible to agree.

"I'm sorry!" Timir tried to keep a calm tone, but tears kept coming out like a raging spring.

Lucius glanced back hastily, then stretched his injured hand behind him.

Timir swallowed the tears that were almost uncontrollable, reached out to wipe away the tears, then stretched out the hand that was not holding the sword, and held it tightly with Lucius.

An emotion that was so happy that he was about to cry surged from Timur's heart - just shaking hands, he felt Lucius' tolerance and comfort.For himself who always made mistakes, Lucius never seemed to blame him, and always supported his decisions as always...

Is this the partner?People who can walk with themselves and never carry themselves behind their backs!

"Timer, you enter the dungeon. I will put Maggie in a conspicuous place to attract the attention of the guards." Lucius squeezed Timir's palm hard, then suddenly raised his hand and put it on the A kiss on the lips.

"I'm waiting for you in the teleportation array." Timir was almost reluctant to let go, but he knew that he shouldn't cause any trouble to Lucius.

Seeing Timir walk into the dungeon without hesitation, Lucius's gentle expression suddenly became a little evil. He looked at Maggie thoughtfully, and the delicate skin unique to women burst into scars under the caress of sharp claws. . "Miss Maggie, although I really want to communicate with you properly, there are obviously many objective factors that do not allow this... I hope we will never meet again!"

Lucius didn't intend to kill Maggie. Although a group of dragons without a leader could cause considerable trouble, it might be more beneficial to keep Maggie.The Lord of the Rhine is dead, and Maggie is only a woman. Maybe the rest of the dignitaries will use this as an excuse to arrest the murderer as the success of the Lord, which will be annoying.The existence of Maggie can just make the battle for the city lord more interesting, presumably she will be too busy to hunt down.Furthermore, only the living Maggie can stop the guards.Although Lucius still had physical strength, he had consumed too much energy after all. Even devouring the unicorn's spiritual power crystal core could not solve the fundamental problem.What he needs is rest!

"Lucius, Maggie...she..." After Lucius walked into the dungeon, he saw that Timir did not wait honestly by the teleportation circle, but stood in a cell room hesitating to speak.

"Why, you don't want her to die?" Lucius raised his eyebrows.To be honest, Timmel wouldn't be surprised if he said yes.

But Timmir just shook his head: "I believe in you."

This sentence surprised Lucius a little.What does it mean to believe?Believe he won't kill?Still believe that his decision is right?

"Do you remember this uncle?" Timir no longer dwelled on this topic, but asked while pointing to the cell next to him.

After Lucius walked to Timur, he let out a soft snort!The entrance they chose this time was the one they took when they came to rescue Onia, and the prisoners in the prison naturally did not change.But this time, even Lucius felt that the uncle Timur mentioned was indeed familiar...
