Chapter 94: Deep into the heart

Greenwood City is the second largest city that Xiao Chen has seen after Wangdu. Although it is not as prosperous as Suero, the city itself is more primitive. Siro tells him that the general history of cities where place names are composed of magic texts can be traced back a long, long time ago. This is the case with the Green Forest City. Although the origin of the name is unexplainable, the mottled ancient city walls, broken stone roads on the ground, and the ancient columns and statues that are often seen are quietly telling the glory of this big city.
After arriving in Greenwood City yesterday, Xiao Chen and his entourage, as a mercenary group hired by the Duke of Greenwood City, were settled in a camp outside the city and were stationed with mercenaries from various other places. There are many mercenaries who are vulgar, and the Duke of Parsa is worried that these people will disturb his city and will not allow the mercenaries to enter the city. He also specially arranged a team of soldiers to control the camp of the mercenaries and prevent them from going out. The campsite was hanging around.
Of course, such a ban is inevitable for Xiao Chen. His current magic cultivation requires only a little mobilization of mental power, extraction of some spiritual magic power from the outside world, and his own will, he can confound the guard soldiers in a dizzy turn. This is also the skill he gradually mastered after learning the Tower of Origin "Magic Reality" after he advanced to a high-level mage: how to cast magic without runes.
He and Roger and Silo put on plain clothes and mixed into the Greenwood City. As soon as they entered the city, they saw a notice posted at the gate of the city, saying that the Duke of Greenwood had barred Julio, the younger son of Baron Offarre, as the baron.
Notice that there are no people around. The general Dousheng Xiaomin naturally doesn't pay any attention to such things. There are two businessmen talking there.
"It's only been a few days, why did the baron change another one?"
"Who asked them to provoke the Chinese, and those who came from the north didn't know that the Chinese are very powerful now." The businessman lowered his voice and said, "I have heard that a group of Martos wanted to attack the Chinese God at night. Nuozhen, who knows that the Chinese have already ambushed and waited for them to get hooked. Finally, none of the teams survived except the guards behind them. "
"So exaggerated?" The other businessman was obviously shocked, patted his chest, looked around and said, "The Chinese are also cruel enough."
"As I see it, it's not the Chinese who are ruthless, but the people here are stupid. Even if the other party's strength is not clear, they will attack. Isn't that a death?"
"I heard that Lord Duke hasn't given up yet. Calling knights and mercenaries everywhere for a few days."
The businessman in the front tweeted: "I don't think about the origin of this prince. The past few decades, basically no one can get a bargain from him, and those who are used to the benefits are naturally not so easy to give up."
"I don't know who lost or won in the end."
The businessman covered his mouth with his hand and said, "I put the treasure on the Chinese. I have half of my business with them."
Xiao Chen had released a magic he had invented before. He used his mental strength to form a film next to two businessmen. Using this film to feel the vibration of the air, he could hear the voice of two people in the distance. He called this magic ear listening. After listening for a while, Xiao Chen said: "Old Chen, they are so powerful, it only took one night to wipe out the team of the new baron Matos."
"No wonder the Duke can't wait to establish a new puppet." Siro said, "Master, what are you going to do?"
"Let's take a look around the Duke's Mansion first. Since we are here, we naturally have to see if there is any opportunity. If we can find a way to reach the Duke, we can easily solve a problem for the school."
auzw.com "Adult, do you want to assassinate the Duke?" Siro said in surprise.
"Could he be allowed to attack us, wouldn't we be allowed to teach him a lesson?"
"It's generally difficult to assassinate people like the Duke." Roger said. "Aristocrats of this level, there are always a few masters to follow at any time. The power of this Duke of Greenwood City, whether in the kingdom or the empire, is not bad. Yes. It ’s normal to have a guardian around you. "
"Don't be nervous, let's just take a look. Anyway, there is no clear plan of action. We should have collected intelligence."
The three Xiao Chen walked around and found that the atmosphere in the city was really tense. There are a lot of vehicles covering up and down, transporting supplies to and from the city. This should be all the Duke asked the merchant to buy.
Xiao Chen took advantage of the lack of attention and spotted a truck that temporarily stopped on the side of the road to avoid the carriage, and issued a wind blade against the cargo covered by the tarpaulin. His wind blade was extremely thin and narrow, and he cut into a bag without a sound. After the carriage moved forward, Xiao Chen walked to the position where the truck had just stopped and picked up some white powder from the ground. "It is flour, and it is indeed military food."
Roger thought for a while: "Remember to see most of the cars on the road not going to our camp."
"The Duke must use more power than our mercenaries, there must be other teams assembled elsewhere," Xiao Chen said.
"He must also have a team of knights and knight servants. Such fine flour cannot be prepared for mercenaries, afraid that his aristocratic lineage is enough to eat."
"Adult, the car that I just had should be filled with kerosene. I have run this business before and I am very familiar with the taste." Siro said.
"It seems that the Duke learned the last lesson. This wave of attacking the town of Alano should be much stronger than before."
The three came to the Duke's Palace, which was a real castle. There are many moats, suspension bridges, and towering walls. Many soldiers in armor were patrolling back and forth above the fence. Several soldiers can also be seen on the four corners of the tower, bow and arrow, ready to shoot.
Xiao Cheng was close to the wall of the castle and felt, "There is also the power to suppress magic, which is no worse than the royal palace. It is estimated that in this castle, my combat power will be greatly reduced. It seems that the secret attack is completely There is no possibility. "
The suspension bridge of the moat was laid down during the day. As they passed by, there happened to be two officers who looked like officers talking there.
Xiao Chen used his ears to listen to this magic as he just did.
People in this world do not understand how sound is transmitted, so even people with some strength are not too vigilant about magic like Xiao Chen.
After a while, Xiao Chen said to Roger: "Your guess is right. A team will join us before arriving in the town of Alano. It is composed of knights under the Duke, and the guy will join the team just now. . At that time, the mercenary team will be used to test the combat effectiveness of the town of Alano. We are the real cannon fodder. "
