"Not successful yet? Is there no effect?" Taxia asked.
"It works, but I found that there are more than one node on the west side. After this beam disappears, there is another beam that sends energy to the shield hundreds of meters away. And as soon as the beam on this side disappears, the beam on that side is obvious It became brighter and thicker. It means that the city defense enchantment adjusted the charge of the shield. So we must destroy the second node again. "
"Do you know the general direction?" Elena asked.
Xiao Chen Road: "It should be located in the north. But I think this alchemist should be more clear?"
Donato saw Xiao Chen coming here, everyone looked at him, and quickly saluted him: "I know, respected lord. I will take you here! But the shield generation room over there is separated from this side. Open. The master who designed this enchantment did not easily spread to other places for any important enchantment components. We specially made such a design. We must leave this stone road and enter the other side of the stone road to be able to reach there."
"Then leave."
A group of people followed Donato to the exit of the stone road. Donato took out his crystal and put it on the wall, and opened the door through the external corridor.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the door was opened, seven or eight people were blocked.
Xiao Chen recognized that the head was the Marquis ’s confidant, Marco, who was also with the female mage Ada next to him, and there was a person beside him who looked very similar to him, and also had two swords on his back. It was his brother Marissa. There is also an alchemist in the opposing team, who seems to be about to open the door, but did not expect the door to be opened from the inside first.
Both teams were shocked when they suddenly met, and Marco's companions pulled out their weapons. Xiao Chen was all mage here, and he took out the staff in his hand, and the magic halo began to gather at the top of the staff.
However, to everyone's surprise, Marco did not draw his sword, but screamed: "Stop!"
Seeing his reaction, Xiao Chen did not release the mental shock that had been prepared in his hand. He asked, "Mr. Marco, what do you want to say?"
Marco stopped his own side with his hand and said, "This lord who claims to be Patin. Now, can you tell me your real name?"
"Is this important?"
"It is important to know who you are before I can determine whether it is necessary to talk to you." Marco said.
"Okay. My name is Xiao Chen. I wonder if you have heard it?"
"It turns out to be you, it's no wonder. In Suero, as long as he is not deaf, he has heard your name." Marco seemed to relax a little at this time. "Since it is His Excellency Xiao Chen, then we can talk about it. A deal. "
"I thought Marquis Baldini was not interested in dealing with us." Xiao Chen said.
"Not doing business with the marquis, but with me." Marco said.
As soon as these words were spoken, Marco's brother and his subordinates were agitated. Obviously, they did not know Marco's plan. Marco whispered something in his brother's ear and glanced at the others to shut them up.
auzw.com Xiao Chen also reached out to stop the mage ready to go, said: "We Chinese people always feel that doing business is better than fighting, let me listen to your suggestions."
Marko said: "I knew the Chinese were great before this war started. In fact, I have always tended to cooperate with you instead of the Empire. I know that as long as you go to you in time, your price will not make people Disappointed.
But Lord Marquis and I have a different perspective on the problem. He feels that keeping the identity of the nobility is more important than anything. The inheritance of the family can be higher than his own life. So he chose the empire after the king died.
My brother and I are just two poor knights. This noble title is not very valuable to us. Although we have high-level strength, we have no foundation in the circle and it is difficult to climb up.
On the contrary, I know that ordinary people can make a career like you. Many of the slaves who went out of this city have become head and face characters and come back here to deal with our stewards. I believe that with our ability, there will be better results. "
Xiao Chen said: "You want to come to us, but Marquis Baldini does not allow it. Do you want to come to us by yourself?"
"No!" Marco sighed. "I just want to ask you to let Lord Marquis and us. We will not go to the empire, but to take refuge in the southern city-state."
"Brother, how could Lord Marquis agree to such a thing?" Marissa said.
Marko said: "Isn't Master Marquis thinking of something that he needs us to think of for him?"
Xiao Chen said: "So, did you claim to arrange this route for the marquis? He didn't even know that you wanted to 'save' him?"
"I have watched three battles. The first is when you ambush Garriott in the clock tower. The second battle is against the Garriott cavalry outside the city. The third battle is the siege that is happening outside I met you here again, I think the shield formation here has been destroyed by you?
At this point, I know very well that it is impossible for us to overcome you. Lord Marquis does not understand military affairs, and he has not realized how wide the gap between the two sides is. He is still immersed in his own strengths, and there are black guards. The illusion of help above.
He didn't understand at all that Garriott might not even be able to keep his head, and he was still counting on him. "
"If you change to someone else ..." He glanced at the alchemist Donato who was standing in the mage camp. "It's enough to surrender directly, but my brother and I have received great favors from the Lord Marquis. We can say that we two All his achievements are given by him, so we ca n’t leave him alone. "
Xiao Chen said again: "What can you give me?"
Marko said: "I think you have destroyed a shield generation room. I can give you the key to open and control another generation room, so that you can close it directly without even destroying the circle."
Xiao Chen Road: "This is not enough, without your help, we can do it in a little time."
Marco said again: "I can transfer all the commanders of the army in the city to let you be wiped out, and I can also tell you the families of the nobles and rich merchants in the city."
"Do you think that the Suero City Guard has a chance to make a comeback in front of our army? I guess they are very difficult to cause casualties to us. As for the nobles and rich businessmen, can they still run away? I hope you can perform Show enough sincerity. "
Marco knew that he didn't have too many chips in his hand, he said: "So please, what do you need to be able to agree to my conditions?"
Xiao Chen stretched out a finger and said, "Then I will add a condition to help us deal with those black guards, and I want you to do it yourself!"
