In Morgan's precise elimination method, they stumbling but surprisingly unimpeded groped for a while, and then ran into Norman and Sophie who were being chased head-on.

Xiu was startled for a moment, but quickly reacted and knocked down the pursuers.Before he could ask about the situation, more soldiers rushed over, and he picked up the two of them and ran away without saying a word.

Thanks to Norman's petite body, and Sophie is also a slender fish, he was able to carry two people walking like flying.

"Tut tsk tsk." Lu Kai followed them lightly, and said with emotion, "It's so miserable."

They made more and more noise, and more and more soldiers were chasing after them. In the end, it became an indoor marathon.

At the beginning, Xiu tried to clean up a wave of chasing soldiers, but soon he stopped making such fearless attempts, because there were more and more chasing soldiers, he didn't clean it up several times, and instead delayed the time to escape.

Morgan was the fastest, carrying Norman on his shoulders and running ahead. When he was about to rush into a corridor, Xiu, who followed closely, grabbed him and ran to the other side.

Biles and Sean, who joined them on the way, managed to intercept the pursuers for a while, giving them a chance to breathe, but they still couldn't get rid of them completely.

Looking at this scene, Lu Kai seems to have seen the protagonist team being chased by zombies in a zombie movie... Hmm, it seems that there is nothing wrong with substituting it.

"Should we help them?" Lu Kai said softly.

Eli held his hand, smiled and refused ruthlessly: "Don't worry, it's okay to repair."

"Then what..."

Lu Kai still wanted to struggle, but Eli grabbed him and walked upstairs.

"Let's go up there and wait,? They'll be here soon."

The Osevendo Tower has nine floors. Soldiers are stationed in the bottom three floors and the surrounding sub-towers, the two upper floors are generals, and the upper three floors are the masters invited to guard.

On the top floor, Hazel, the queen of the Tros Empire who had eloped with others, was imprisoned.

The soldiers living at the bottom may not be aware of this matter, because the ninth floor of the Osevendo Tower has long been dust-covered.

The door leading to the ninth floor was sealed with iron chains, the doors and windows were all closed, and there were layers of formation barriers wrapped around it. Even a sub-sage-level master would have to shed a layer of skin if he wanted to escape.

The layer upon layer of formations fluctuated slightly, as if ripples were rippling on the calm water.

The two figures passed through the wall and the formation silently without any warning.

The ninth floor is large and empty.

Fine floating dust permeated the closed air, with a slightly rotten atmosphere.But if you look around, the ninth floor of the Osevendo Tower is gorgeous and clean. It doesn't look like a cage, but rather like a vacation home for some princes and nobles.

The delicate lace curtains have lost their initial brilliance through the polishing of time, but the hanging bead curtains still retain their dazzling brilliance.There was a bouquet of bright red roses in the vase by the bed, under the blessing of magic, it was still as bright as if it had just been plucked, but after all, it lacked the vitality and beauty.

Under the superimposition of multiple magics, everything remained as it was more than ten years ago.This place has not been buried in dust because of being closed, it is clean and beautiful as before, as if this can deceive the facts.

Lu Kai stepped forward, raised his hand and gently lifted the lace curtain that fell to the ground.

The long dark blanket covered the edge of the bed, and there was a strange smell mixed in the luxurious and rich floral fragrance, which was very faint, but he was no stranger to it.

Lying quietly on the bed was a person, a beautiful woman.

Against the background of the dark velvet blanket, his fair skin was morbidly pale, with a hint of coldness.She was wearing a gorgeous palace dress, with her hands folded and placed on her abdomen, her face was painted with light and soft makeup, her soft golden hair was coiled up obediently, and even the crown on her head was meticulous.It seemed that instead of lying quietly on the bed, she was sitting gracefully on the throne, smiling at the worshiping subjects below.

But she wasn't smiling at the moment, her beautiful facial features gave off a sense of peace and tranquility, but the delicate makeup couldn't cover up the deep lifelessness on her body.

Lu Kai looked at her for a long time, comparing her and Xiu's facial features one by one, and slowly found many similarities.If she could open her eyes now, Lu Kai thought, he would probably see a pair of gentle blue eyes, as bright as Xiu.

He withdrew his hand and let the lace curtain fall back, covering the figure on the bed.

Eli pulled him to the side to sit down, and took out a small silver jug ​​and poured half a glass of sake for him.

Lu Kai took the wine glass and held it in his hand, didn't drink, looked at the front with a slightly empty gaze, maybe he was looking at the vase and roses opposite, maybe he was looking at the delicate wall lamp burning faintly on the wall, or maybe he didn't look at anything .

"I'm back to my senses." Eli stretched out his hand helplessly and waved in front of his eyes, "Why, you were hit so hard?"

"No." Lu Kai drank the wine, frowned slightly and said, "I'm a little worried."

Worried that Xiu Fei had put in so much effort to find his mother, but in the end there was only a corpse that seemed to be alive but had actually decayed into ashes.

"Your worries are a little unnecessary." Eli smiled softly, and said meaningfully: "Queen Hazel is not a simple woman. She has never been a favored princess in the cold palace, and she has become famous step by step. Marry far away and become a queen in an enemy country, and then lie here alone. She has calculated the gains and losses in advance every step of the way, and may encounter accidents in the middle, but she will guarantee that she is the winner in the end."

Lu Kai raised his eyebrows, glanced up at the corpse on the bed, then at the smiling Eli, squinted his eyes and asked, "What do you know?"

Eli put down his wine glass with a smile, and said, "Since I found Xiu, I have sent someone to check his life experience, so I know more than ordinary people."

"The emperor of the Tros Empire is named Marcus. He had the ambition to annex neighboring countries when he was still a prince. He once sneaked into the Rosen Empire to listen to information. It is said that he met Princess Hazel by chance at that time and expressed his love for her." This gentle and dignified princess fell in love at first sight, and immediately proposed to marry her after she took the throne, and even gave up her plan to attack the Rosen Empire because of her."

Lu Kai listened, took a sip of wine and pondered for a moment, then shook his head deeply: "Fake."

"Of course it's fake." Eli laughed. "At that time, the Lawson Empire was not so weak, and the Tros Empire was not strong enough to annex it. It took Marcus 20 years to gradually erode and accumulate. It’s just nonsense to give up ambition for love, but there was indeed a relationship between the two at the time, as for whether the encounter was an accident or someone’s deliberate deliberation, no one except the parties involved knows.”

Lu Kai passed the empty wine glass forward, and when Eli filled him with wine, he held the glass and continued to listen quietly.

"In the eyes of outsiders, the love between the two of them was vigorous and short-lived like fireworks. Marcus, who became king, quickly betrayed Hazel. All kinds of women appeared by his side, and Hazel was forgotten and abandoned by him."

"It is said that they once had a fierce dispute, and neither of them would give in, and then their relationship broke down completely. Everyone thought that Hazel would be left in the cold forever by Marcus, and even lose the title of queen, but they didn't expect that she would be with his own The chief guard has eloped."

Eli looked into Lukai's bright eyes, shook his head with a smile, and said, "These are superficial, and you should have heard of them, so let me tell you something that others don't know."

Lu Kai was really interested, and urged him: "Say it quickly!"

"A very secret and very small matter." Eli said, "A few days before the two quarreled, Hazel went to the Temple of Light to pray for blessings, and met an old friend from the Lawson Empire there."

"This man's name is Anatole, and he is an unknown prophet." Eli said lightly, "There are very few people who practice prophecy. This is an extremely profound magic, and most of them are called prophets. Everyone is a liar. Anatoly is a liar in the eyes of others. He has studied prophecy all his life, but most of the prophecies he made have not come true, so his life is not very happy."

"Hazel saved him once when he was almost beaten to death, so he traveled all the way to Tross, found Hazel, and made the last prophecy before he died."

Lu Kai's eyes flickered slightly, as if he had thought of something.

"I don't know exactly what he prophesied, but not long after, Hazel and Marcus broke up and left the palace resolutely." Eli said, "I don't think she left on a whim, but He made all the arrangements in advance. Because Marcus sent many experts to track her down after she left, and almost searched the Tros Empire up and down, but he never found any trace of Hazel."

"It wasn't until more than a year later that the Ghost Assassin Group, who had taken over the mission to find someone, discovered Hazel by accident, and let her successfully send Xiu away in the confusion." Eli bit the word "accident" rather hard, obviously In his opinion, this accident is worth considering.

"What happened 20 years ago was chaotic and complicated, and it is more troublesome to check it now." In the end, Eli made a simple summary: "I can only say that in a sense, Hezel and Marcus are the same kind of person, Calculating and ambitious. They did love each other, because of this relationship, Hazel lost 20 years ago, but 20 years later, it is still unknown which of them will be the winner."

Eli smiled and looked at Lu Kai who was a little dazed, and asked, "Is there anything else I want to ask?"

Lu Kai was silent for a moment, and asked the most critical question: "The head of the guard seems to be named Edmund, does he have giant blood?"

"No." Eli said with certainty, "He is a pure human being. The ancestors of the Teros Empire have a little connection with giants, so their royal family members are relatively tall, but today's meager blood can be ignored. "

Lu Kai pondered for a while, then spit out a sonorous and powerful word: "Grass!"

Both parents are black-hearted old foxes, why did they give birth to such a tough-as-nails Xiu?Could it be a genetic mutation?

After thinking for a while, he only came up with a slightly reliable answer of "Aunt Caroline's education policy is relatively simple".

Well, it shouldn't be his fault...
