The house of the Alonso family is on the outskirts of Wangdu, about seven or eight kilometers away from the city gate.
Although the dinner was held temporarily, it was still impeccable according to local standards. In an elegant ballroom decorated with oil paintings, vases and fabrics, everyone ate around a long table.
The scale of the banquet is not large, just a dozen people. Invited were Feng Qi and others from the book club, as well as some mages and nobles who had a good relationship with the Alonso family.
Tahya really came up with an original little magic. Name: Tarsia's vortex wind. This magic can make a small object continue to rotate at a constant speed. She has not figured out how to use this magic. But Xiao Chen saw at a glance that this could act like a centrifuge in the laboratory.
Although it is a little magic, it is very difficult for the mages to create any magic. They have no effective method of developing magic, and they have very limited knowledge of the magic text. They basically rely on groping, luck and experience. . Therefore, Taxia, who is still a mid-level mage, can invent a new magic, which is enough to be praised and envied, and it is reasonable to hold a banquet celebration.
After the dinner was over, Xiao Chen finally left Tassia's house, at which time there were two more women in cloaks beside him. One of them is naturally Tahia, and the other is her guardian knight Bellia.
"You really don't need to follow me." Xiao Chen said.
"Don't say these meaningless words, today I will help you create a reasonable reason to allow you to lead the enemy, and I will naturally try to keep you safe.
You and Roger are too weak, but when I add a total of four people with Bellia and me, basically you can go anywhere. What's more, you promised to tell me that there is no problem in coordinating, everything is in control, then I will accompany you to learn more. "
"However, today it is very likely that we will encounter an attack against us, and we may even need to escape." Xiao Chen opened the collar of his coat, revealing the soft armor enchanted, "I did everything I could to prepare, I'm still not at ease, and I'm even more flustered with you. If you have a little accident, how can I be worthy of you? "
"I can't worry about you." Tahia touched her bracelet, and a light shield suddenly rose around her body. She gave Belia a look. The latter gathered her fists and punched the light shield, only to hear the sound, the light shield was still. Tasiya smiled: "I also have several defense items that are triggered automatically. Who do you think is more dangerous and who needs more protection?"
At this time, it began to rain, and Xiao Chen looked up at the sky. If the rain is heavy, there will be more uncertain factors. It was time to go, he sighed, and the girl in front of him, the more he touched the more she could not understand her mind.
"Do I need to sign a paper to prove that I am all voluntary?" Tahiya teased.
Xiao Chen knew that she couldn't change her mind, so she said: "Then you don't want to be brave anyway. I will try my best to protect you."
"Wait for your protection, it would be better to rely on my Belia." Tahiya said, and she got into the carriage first.
The female knight Belia hadn't said a word after seeing Xiao Chen. She just nodded to Xiao Chen and followed her into the car.
Roger in the control position wore a wide cloak, covering the light armor below. When Xiao Chen got on the bus and closed the door, he pulled the whip and the carriage drove into the night.
The horseshoe hit the muddy road, making a sometimes crisp, sometimes dull tapping sound.
Xiao Chen looked out from inside the curtain, and saw that the road between the forests was dark and there was not much starlight. Only in the front of the car, the light from the spar illuminates a short road ahead, allowing Roger to discern the direction. The carriage is like a small boat in the dark ocean, driving forward alone.
What a good day for a sneak attack.
There was excitement on the little face of Tahia sitting opposite him. She did not sit as usual, but looked around the curtain slit with a probe, and the gray eyes turned around, as if there was an assassin now. Just jump out.
"Don't get too close to the window. It's dangerous if someone shoots an arrow."
auzw.com "The magic of deflecting arrows is constant on my left earring, and the magic of reflecting energy is constant on my right earring." Tahiya shook her head deliberately, two cyan The sinker shook with her ears.
Xiao Chen:
After a while, Tahiya said: "You haven't told me what the plan is like."
"It takes about an hour from here to the city gate. We ambush people stand by in a forest one kilometer away from the city gate.
If we are attacked, we run away desperately and lead them to the ambush circle, and then naturally someone can deal with the assassin. "
"Who is the person doing it?"
Xiao Chen pondered silently.
"Can't believe me?"
"No, I don't think I should get you in."
"When you turned on the real source of magic, we were already sitting in a carriage." Tahiya patted the cushion with her hand. "Actually, if you don't say that I know, it must be Roland."
"Well, it is indeed his man, to be exact, the Knights of the Wind."
"Roland's great courage actually used the Knights of the Temple against the Shadow of the Temple."
"Not surprisingly, many times internal enemies are far more dangerous and more vicious than external enemies."
There is a gentle about three kilometers away from Xiao Chen's carriage. More than a dozen riders are holding the horse and waiting in the rain. The people in these shadows are wearing leather cloaks and carrying crossbows on their bodies. Except for the occasional noise of horses sniffing, the entire team was silent.
In the distance, there was the sound of a horseshoe. After a while, two knights with the same dress came in the rain, and the horse rushed up the gentle slope, and came to the head of the head.
"Master Sancho, they are here. It is expected that there will be twenty minutes here." One of them reported.
"From the outside, there is only one driver in the carriage. But there are a few people in the car that we don't know. They are on the Alonso manor." Another said.
"However, judging from the depth of rutting, there should be more than one person," the former added.
"Okay, no matter how many people are in the car, it can't be the opponent of our team. Follow the plan for a while. If you can catch it, you can catch it, and if you don't catch it, solve it." Sancho said.
When he heard that Xiao Chen was going to the banquet, he immediately reorganized the team. On the one hand, he sent people to track down. On the other hand, he returned to the headquarters with horses, bows and arrows, and made plans for an ambush.
He looked up at the clouded sky and said to the left and right: "Go ahead. I will look at you from behind."
The crowd turned their horses and ran down the valley in two ways.
