Chapter 613: Liaison and Assassination
As soon as he entered the Mage Tower, Henry immediately felt a strange magical energy, from the ceiling above his head to the ground under his feet, it was simply everywhere. It seems that the Dark Elves are much more rigorous about magic than humans, otherwise they would not have made great efforts to build such a strict monitoring system.
Unfortunately, this thing can't deal with legendary mages. He only played a small trick, releasing a trace of primordial magic around his body, instantly stirring up all the magical energy, let alone monitoring, not even getting closer.
Quietly handling this matter, Henry did not go directly to the library like ordinary people, but directly took out the staff of the archmage and used the power brought by it to enter the invisible state. Before figuring out Allen's condition, he didn't want to attract too many people's attention, especially to be careful of Chasma, the power of enriched uranium is not a joke, I don't want this guy to study something, the whole Uster. The city of Nazar had to be blown up to the sky.
According to the information given by Anteleb, he avoided the patrolling golem and reached a room on the west side of the second floor unimpeded. Before he could push the door open, there was a fierce quarrel inside.
"Huelva! You lowly commoner dare to refuse the invitation of the Harrett family, we are the fifteenth family in this city. One woman cursed excitedly. She sounded so angry that there was a tremor in her voice.
"I'm sorry, Geudurila, I'm not interested in you and your family. And don't yell at me, because I'll be tempted to pierce you in the neck with a dagger. The other woman also showed no signs of weakness, and her words revealed a threat.
Can I understand this as a declaration of war? You Verva. A lowly commoner. In the direction of Uster. Nassa's fifteenth family declared war? ”
"Whatever you want. Just leave my room now. By the way, it's no wonder that the Harrett family hasn't grown at all after so many years, it turns out that there are too many idiots like you. ”
"Bastard! I'll kill you! ”
"Oh, look, another fool who doesn't have a long brain, only uses brute force."
……
After hearing the sound of the two fighting in the house, Henry shook his head with a smile and gently pushed the door open. The punch slammed into the back of the tall Dark Elf warrior in the back, and before she could even figure out what was going on, her eyes went black and she fell to the ground unconscious.
The petite woman put the dagger back into the sheath, then smiled playfully and asked, "Boss, why are you here?" I don't remember such a clause in the plan. ”
"There's no way, the plan can't keep up with the rapid change. I need to know Alan's whereabouts right now, and I'm sure you have a way, right? Dear Miss Huelva, Saying that, Henry spread his hands helplessly. Among the dark elf squad, he likes the clever and eccentric little girl in front of him the most, because she is not contaminated with too many dark elf vices, and is more like an ordinary human girl.
I have to say. This underage dark elf girl was very well cared for, and Henry even asked Robert to provide her with some convenience for learning magic. Otherwise, no matter how talented he was, it would be impossible to become a fifth-level mage in such a short period of time.
There is no doubt that Huelva and Henry are very close, a bit like brother and sister, a bit like father and daughter, and often make innocuous jokes. Although they were more than twice as age, the girl was sixty-four years old, and Henry was less than thirty years old, quite a strange combination.
"Oh, it's not easy. You must know that your young master is as vigilant as a mouse, and will disappear immediately at the slightest disturbance. I only knew that he was moving around the storage room and basement on the first floor, and I couldn't tell the exact location. Saying that, Huelva didn't even look at it, and directly hit the dark elf female warrior who fell unconscious to the ground with his elbow.
There was only a click, and the poor fellow had the opportunity to kick his legs to death. No one can survive with their spine and trachea broken, not least not the dark elves.
Hearing this news, Henry instantly had a bad premonition. He frowned slightly and asked, "You mean that my son has some kind of Cheng dù freedom?" Feel free to walk around some of the places inside the Mage Tower? ”
After struggling to drag the body under the bed, Huelva nodded helplessly: "That's right, he will appear in the library, dining hall, storage room, and apprenticeship area from time to time every day, and once he finds someone following him, he will immediately use magic to escape." This little guy is quite familiar with the terrain and is guaranteed to disappear without a trace after two turns. I have to say, he's your son, and it's rare to know how many people can play around when he's less than ten years old. ”
"It's really outstanding. So he's already a real mage, not just an apprentice? ”
To be honest, Henry's mood is a bit complicated right now. On the one hand, I feel a little distressed, you can imagine what kind of bad conditions a child less than ten years old has to endure to live in an environment full of dark elves around him, otherwise he will definitely not develop such a vigilant character, you must know that Alan is very slow to react when he is at home, and he doesn't even know how to hide when it rains.
On the other hand, he is very proud to be a father. From apprentices to full-fledged mages, countless people have spent their entire lives unable to cross it, but Eren has done it at an early age. If you continue to develop at this rate, you may become a very powerful spellcaster in another ten years, and your future prospects are simply limitless.
"I want you to assure you that this kid is definitely a mage above level 3. He once cast a second-level magic "pyrotechnic technique" in front of me, not a scroll, not a magic item, but actually completed the chanting spell and spell casting action. At the mention of this, a hint of annoyance appeared on Huelva's face.
There was no doubt that it didn't feel good to be tricked by a kid who was more than fifty years younger than herself, but she almost lost confidence in her own strength.
Henry could imagine the wolf bèi of Huelva at that time, and "pyrotechnics", as the name suggests, produced a large number of sparks and smoke within a certain range. Cause interference with the enemy's eyes and respiratory system. Temporary blindness, severe coughing, etc. It's a magic that specializes in disgusting people, and has no actual lethal power.
As soon as he thought of that kind of scene, he laughed mercilessly: "Aha! I really didn't expect that even a clever ghost like you would be put on the table, and it seems that Alan should really be in no danger. ”
"Damn! Put away your smug expression. I was just careless! Like a cat with its tail stepped on, Huelva jumped up from the ground and retorted loudly. Obviously, the words just now poked her in the sore spot, and the reaction was quite intense.
"Careless? Do you think I'll believe it? Never mind. Now is not the time for bickering. Leave the corpse alone, take me to the area where Eren is active, it's time to take him out of this hellish place. After speaking, Henry directly took out his staff and shot a green light, and the powerful power of the "Dissociation Technique" instantly turned the corpse into a pile of powder.
He couldn't wait to meet his son now, to see what this little guy had become after all he had been through, and if he really had the potential to become a powerful spellcaster.
Huelva glanced at the powder beneath the bed, his eyes revealing a fierce longing. Any low-level mage will inevitably want more and more magical powers, and she is no exception. However, this dark elf girl controlled her feelings very well, and after packing up her things, she quickly closed the door and walked towards the first floor.
That's how they lead the way. The other remained incognito and followed, and soon came to the remote hallway on the right side of the first floor. It's basically a storage room. Except for the golems, which were in charge of carrying and patrolling, there was no one to patronize them, so it was very deserted and there was no sound at all.
Just as Velva was about to say something, suddenly, there was a ripple in the air, followed by a sharp two-handed greatsword that slashed through the air, and less than a millimeter behind her throat, it was slammed open by another force, making a crisp sound unique to metal.
"Dang!"
"You're a little too rough with a lady, especially an underage girl." Saying that, Henry broke out of his stealth and appeared in place. He held the Archmage's Staff in one hand and pressed the other hand against the hilt, holding Verva firmly behind him.
The attacker also appeared in his original form, which was the same Solaufen he had seen at the door. He gripped his weapon and shook his head with a wry smile: "I'm sorry, I don't want to do this either, but it's the only way to survive." ”
"Bastard! The tip of the sword almost pierced my throat just now! Let me slaughter this bastard! As soon as Huelva came to his senses, he drew his dagger and tried to rush forward with all his might. She looked furious, her eyes swelling with a fierce light, and she wanted to slash the enemy in front of her.
But unfortunately, before he could run two steps, he was dragged back by Henry. "Calm down, my dear, you're not his opponent yet, let me come."
Huelva glared indignantly a few times, then cursed in a low voice, "Damn! Remember to teach this guy a good lesson! ”
"Don't worry, he'll be punished. Also, take a good look at how you should fight as a part-time mage. As he spoke, Henry drew his long knife and took a few steps forward.
He didn't attack immediately, but stopped and smiled meaningfully: "Solaufen, right? You should feel glad that the right choice saved your life. Otherwise, with that sneak attack just now, I could have blown you to pieces. ”
"What does this mean? How do I not understand? Solaufen cautiously took a few steps back. He'd heard the name Nîmes mentioned countless times in recent times, and he understood how terrifying the warrior in front of him was, and that he couldn't have won without the help of magic.
Henry moved his muscles slightly, and smiled mysteriously: "Don't worry, soon you will find out what is going on." Now let's focus on this battle, be careful, I've always been very heavy, don't accidentally die yo......"
As soon as he finished speaking, he rushed out like an arrow off the string at a speed that was difficult to catch with the naked eye...... (To be continued......)
