Heart of the Castle

Chapter 521 Conspiracy launched, space teleportation

After listening to the conditions put forward by Levi Stern, Grand Duke Raul's cheeks were tense, his teeth were grinding, and the muscles on both sides of the corners of his mouth jumped up, and then he pulled a creepy smile, and a series of points came out of his mouth. It's not clear whether it's teeth grinding or chuckling. "Master Li Wei? Viscount Ston, it seems that I have underestimated you." His smile did not enter his eyes at all, and there was no other emotion in his eyes except the viciousness frozen into ice, and his voice was soft Be afraid of people. "I thought you were just an upright knight, but I didn't expect you to have the ability to make fun of a court jester. What are you daydreaming about? Let me give up my power and accept sanctions? Why don't you ask me to surrender my life!"

"Your Excellency, Duke Raul Adams, compared to the damage you caused to the interests of the kingdom, staying alive is already the result of the kingdom's laws being lenient." Li Wei told him without giving in, "how many loyal warriors died in your What's the point of shedding so much blood if traitors can still steal high places?"

"That's enough, Levi Ston!" Grand Duke Raul roared suddenly, his ferocious expression turned blue, "I've heard enough of your justice, enough of your stupidity, the game of power game There is no room for the motto of knights. You gave me an ultimatum just now, and now I will give you the same choice-if you dismount immediately, kneel down on one knee, and swear allegiance to me, then you are still a minister of the kingdom and the Guardians of the North, or else..."

Levi snorted contemptuously, "I refuse to give allegiance to a traitor who colluded with the devil, Raul Adams, I once swore that I would never deal with traitors. I should have guessed this result a long time ago, if you hadn't given up power, then this negotiation will come to an end." He announced loudly while turning his horse's head.

"No, it won't stop here!" Grand Duke Raul showed a vicious and ferocious smile, and at the same time pulled out the over-decorated saber from his waist, and threw it towards Li Wei forcefully.The Griffon Lord was already ready. He half-turned his body on his horseback, and the knight's sword, which was burning with silver-white fighting spirit, clanged out of its sheath with the help of the turning movement, and drew a fierce arc of light, viciously smashing the flying sword. The noble sword was chopped into two pieces in the air.

However, this happened to meet the expectations of Grand Duke Raul.

The saber that was broken in two did not land, but floated in front of Li Wei, with a strong and strange light emerging from the blade. "Magic tools?" The thought flashed across Levi's mind like lightning, but before he could react, Grand Duke Raul yelled hoarsely.

"Your Excellency Fire Magician, do it!"

The entourage who followed Grand Duke Raul said nothing from the beginning to the end, but at this moment he suddenly stretched out his hands towards Li Wei, and countless tiny blue and white electric lights shot out from his fingers, forming a side in the air Dazzling light web.

"Jonoan Merister!" A surprised voice came from the Griffin Lord's mouth, but there was not much panic in it.He already knew about the strange attendant of Grand Duke Raul through the big crow's narration—even though he was wearing armor, he obviously didn't look like a knight—and he also made arrangements for various possibilities.

Before the lightning grid surrounded Li Wei's body, Butler Frederick took a step forward, raised his right hand and made a gesture of chopping down. The magical power of any attribute made the lightning grid tremble violently.

"Your opponent is me, Lord Merister." Butler Frederick said in a calm voice.

"Strange power, strange magic." The voice of the fire magician came from behind the visor, "It's a very interesting technique, but in the face of absolutely powerful magic power, what effect can the technique play? "

Before Junoan Merister finished speaking, the buckle on his shoulders suddenly cracked, and the shoulder armor fell to the ground with a clanging sound, and then it was the turn of the breastplate, skirt armor and greaves.The armor used for camouflage on Fire Magician's body was disintegrating on its own. As pieces of armor left his body, the lightning grid regained its stability and gradually pressed down towards the opposite side.

Butler Frederick's expression remained calm, and he made a series of complex gestures with his hands on his chest. The speed of the Leiguang Grid slowed down again, and oscillated as the gestures pulled, like a flag in a storm.

Seeing that the magic of the fire magician did not have the expected effect, Grand Duke Raul's face turned livid.The negotiation site designated by Li Wei's party was less than one kilometer away from the camp of the Northern Allied Forces, and it was located on an unsheltered hill. Everything that happened here could be clearly seen.He even seemed to hear the sound of warning horns echoing over the coalition camp, as if he saw the log fence being pulled apart by powerful arms, and a heavily armed knight jumped on his horse, roaring, and pounced towards the direction of the hill come!

"Your Excellency Merister, please hurry up, please hurry up!" Grand Duke Raul's anxious voice sounded, "The camp of the Northern Alliance Army has discovered the changes here, gods be damned, if the brigade comes over, our plan will be destroyed. It's all over."

"Do you think magicians are stupid knights? Is the art of magic as simple as dancing with a sword?" The fire magician told him in an impatient tone, "Raul Adams, superb spellcasting skills are not Anyone can see it, open your eyes and appreciate it."

Following the sound of the fire magician, the two cut-off swords that had been almost forgotten by everyone suddenly burst into buzzing, and the strange light flickering on the blades became brighter and brighter. The surrounding air also glowed and twisted accordingly.Butler Frederick continued to tear apart the Leiguang grid while turning his head to observe.He only looked at it for a few seconds before his face suddenly became frightened and disturbed.

"Master Li Wei, get out of here!" The old voice hurriedly rang in Li Wei's ears, carrying the anxiety and fear that he rarely heard from Mr. Dish. "Leave immediately, that is the positioning teleportation enchantment!"

"Mr. Dish, what are you going to do?"

"It doesn't matter to me, even if this body is destroyed, I can still be resurrected from the heart of the castle, Master Li Wei, you go, go!"

Li Wei gritted his teeth and nodded, but it was not easy to leave at this time. After triggering the magic trap on the two cut-off swords, the fire magician put all his energy on the magic of the Lightning Grid, and with Di Mr. Shi launched a dull and fierce contest.The bluish-white lightning flashed back and forth, and was sometimes torn apart by Butler Frederick's gesture, but was refilled by more lightning in the blink of an eye.

Li Wei swung his sword towards the light net behind him, and the feeling from his wrist was like being cut on the elastic and flexible cowhide.The silver-white dou qi light exploded violently, cutting a corner of the light net, but when the blade was withdrawn, the gap was also filled with lightning in an instant.

However, the attacks of the two people are not ineffective. Every repair of the Leiguang grid will consume a lot of magic power of the fire magician. But with the passage of time, the amount of magic power lost was so huge that his face began to turn pale.

Although Li Wei and Mr. Dish did not estimate the trump card of the fire magician, the fire magician also greatly underestimated the strength of these two people. When he saw the reddish hot air flow began to condense into a ball of light At that time, I couldn't help the corners of my eyes twitching.

That magic looks like a bursting fireball of the third energy level, but the power of the condensed fire element is far beyond the reach of ordinary bursting fireballs.The fire magician had already seen the half-formed flame elf roaring loudly in the ball of fire. Its power should be enough to catch up with sixth-level magic. It is not a force that is easy to resist, at least it is impossible for the lightning grid that is already on the verge of being broken to withstand it. up!
Just when the fire wizard Junoan Merister was already planning how to get out safely, a very mysterious wave of magic power spread from the two cut swords, and then Li Wei found that the surrounding lights suddenly lit up, even if Even with his eyes closed, the light still pierced his pupils with pain.When the glare finally dimmed and disappeared, Li Wei opened his eyes again and found that both the mountains and rivers, the sky and the earth had disappeared without a trace, only a piece of land with a radius of tens of meters below his feet, floating in the infinite dark void.

The figures of the fire magician and Grand Duke Raul also disappeared, but the bluish-white lightning grid still existed, and the two cut-off swords floated under the grid, and the light on the blades had all turned into a blood-like crimson.Mr. Dish looked thoughtfully at the series of magic runes that appeared on the blade, and muttered in a strange language that Levi couldn't understand.

Li Wei threw the fireball that had not been condensed to the strongest state in his hand towards the two broken swords. The crimson flames smashed on the broken swords with a long black smoke, and exploded into a sea of ​​flames, even the ground was covered. Burnt red.However, when the flames disappeared, two unscathed swords were revealed, and the blades even seemed to become more bright red because of absorbing the power of the fireball.

"Master Li Wei, it's too late." Mr. Dish shook his head with a wry smile, and with a stroke of his hands, he completely tore apart the lightning grid that had lost its host, and the remaining magical power turned into countless floating stars. "The magic has been completed, there is no point in continuing to attack that magic tool."

"Mr. Dish, can you judge what kind of magic this is and what kind of effect it can produce?" Li Wei looked around, but there was absolute darkness tens of meters away, and even the field of vision of the probing technique was limited to this narrow range within.

"From the analysis of the magic runes on the magic guide, this magic should belong to a kind of space ritual magic, and the effect should be to transfer everything within the scope of action to the location where another magic circle has already been arranged." Mr. Dish took out He picked up the wooden cane carved by himself, and said solemnly, "Master Li Wei, be careful. The person who set up this magic trap is quite insidious. It is impossible to simply teleport us to a certain place."

"Viscount Levi Ston, I said that you would regret rejecting my hand." Grand Duke Raul's triumphant laughter came from the darkness in all directions, echoing like rolling thunder. "Have you tasted regret now? But I am different from that mean and ungrateful former king. I have a heart like an endless ocean and patience like an ancient sage, Levi Ston, so I still put The last chance is left to you, bow down to me, be loyal to me, I will..."

"I found you." Mr. Dish, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said softly. The carved wooden cane was raised, and a ray of bright white light shot out from the cane, tearing the darkness like cutting butter with a hot knife.Grand Duke Raul's boastful talk was immediately interrupted by a scream, and hot blood splashed out from the void in front of him.Mr. Disch swung his cane, and with the sound of crystal shattering, Levi's eyes widened in surprise. Not far in front of him, the space shattered like a mirror, revealing the two hidden behind. Personal silhouettes - King Regent Raul Adams and Fire Wizard Junuoan Merister.

Grand Duke Raul's breathing was light and short, his left hand tightly clutched his ribs, and blood crawled out from between his fingers like many small red snakes, staining half of his body red.Although the fire magician was unscathed, he looked even more surprised than Grand Duke Raul. "How did you find us?" He frowned and asked Mr. Dish, "My void barrier is perfect both in terms of casting method and effect, and it is impossible for an unprepared great magister to easily see through it. You Who is it?"

Facing the angry Fire Wizard, Mr. Dish shrugged his shoulders and replied, "I'm just a housekeeper serving Master Levi. It's easy to find out where you are hiding. The stench coming from there is too strong. Obviously, that barrier can't cover it at all."

"Smell? My Lord of the Elements, Merkativo, I just took a shower this morning. Raul Adams, it must be the smell from your body." Then he showed a hesitant expression. "Why can't I smell it? Is it a cold?"

Grand Duke Raul showed a dumbfounding expression on his face, "There is no smell, Lord Merister, that guy is mocking us." He gritted his teeth and said, "He said that we are all traitors, so we are full of rancid smell. smell."

"Very good, Steward Frederick, right? You will pay for your taunt." The fire wizard was furious, his eyes burning with bloody flames in the darkness, "I swear on the honor of the Merister family , I must use the fiendish flames in hell to roast you alive into charcoal, leaving only that sharp tongue as a specimen!"

As soon as the words fell, the fire magician immediately launched an offensive to fulfill his oath. He took out a flawless purple gem from his sleeve, "The law is formed, scattered, destroyed, and returned to nothing!" After a short and powerful spell, the gem It turned into a deep purple light, which shot out from the hands of the fire magician.

Mr. Dish calmly raised the wooden cane, "Alchemy magic? Thunderbolt ice." With a low murmur, a blue ray exuding an extremely cold aura shot out from the top of the cane, heading straight towards the Deep purple light.The power of this icy blue light was so powerful that it left long-lasting blue marks in the void where it passed.

The two beams collided head-on in the air. What surprised Levi was that the icy blue light emitted by Mr. Dish was vulnerable to a single blow, and was scattered by the deep purple light at the slightest contact.

"Oops, this magic is Merkativo's Great Disintegration Curse!" Mr. Dish showed a shocked expression on his face, but it was too late, the deep purple light continued to move forward, and hit the wooden carved walking stick in his hand first. It smashed, and then shot straight at Levi Stern's chest!
However, this magic does not seem to be lethal. The light beam did not penetrate Li Wei's body, but spread out, covering his body with a layer of lavender light.

A strange expression appeared on Levi's face, mixed with surprise, fear and disbelief, "Castle Heart...Mr. Dish, I suddenly feel that I have lost contact with Castle Heart!" He lowered his voice Say, "I can't cast those spells now, and I can't open the portal to the Castle Heart!"

"Merkativo's Great Disintegration Curse can temporarily disable any magic tools, alchemy items, and sacred relics. It is the most dangerous and troublesome curse for magicians, because this curse magic can decompose elements including , darkness, light, and even faith, so there is no way to release it in advance.” Mr. Dish told Levi in ​​a hurried voice, “This guy’s strength is beyond my expectation, and I have to take advantage of the strength in my body to release it.” Solve this problem before it dissipates." Then he turned his body to Fire Magician and Grand Duke Raul.

"It's beautiful magic, fire wizard Junoan Merister, I'm afraid I underestimated you." Mr. Dish admitted, and then stretched out his hands and formed a very weird gesture on his chest. Cracks spread outward from his fingers, "Thank you for taking care of Master Li Wei, this is my return gift! Merkativo's disorderly cutting!"

"No, no!"

The roar of the fire magician and Mr. Dish's maniacal laughter mixed together, and the space ritual magic fluctuated violently. Black lines like spider webs shuttled back and forth in the air, and Mr. Dish, the fire magician and Raul The figure of the Grand Duke is isolated from Li Wei.Immediately afterwards, a strange feeling as if he was stripped from the normal world seized Li Wei's heart, causing him to curl up in pain.

The strange sense of alienation in space disappeared without warning in the next second, and the dizziness suddenly hit his heart, which made Li Wei gag.He held the hilt of the knight's sword stuck in the ground with both hands, and tried to stand firm. When he raised his head, he found that he was teleported to a strange square by space ritual magic.

This square is located in the south of the royal capital Fermeyer. To the north, you can see the towering seven towers of the Ashes Fortress. The ground of the square is covered with ancient stone slabs that have been weathered and eroded by the years, some of which can even be traced back to before the founding of the Kingdom of Arthur. ; a huge obsidian is located in the center of the square, engraved with many illegible ancient characters.It was the first time for Li Wei to see this stone. He couldn't recognize any of the words on it, but he knew the meaning inside completely.

In fact, anyone who dreamed of being a knight in his youth knows the meaning of the words on the obsidian, "Blood alliance, oath, victory." This is the family motto of the royal family of Arthur, and it is also the correct interpretation of the ancient words on the obsidian. It was on this stone that Arthur I drew the famous oath and the sword of victory. Since then, he has been favored by the god of war Balud. He has experienced hundreds of battles and has never tasted the taste of failure.

Hundreds of heavily armed Dreadfort jailers had already gathered here, and surrounded the square heavily. When they saw Levi appearing in the blue and white light, they were stunned for a moment, and then uttered crazy curses , ridicule and sarcasm, these voices converged into a long river of malice, which instantly surrounded the Griffin Lord.

"Is this the ultimate trap?" Although Li Wei told himself that he must be calm and not show any expression of fear or nervousness, the tight corners of his mouth still revealed his inner anxiety. "Come out, I want to see who is the Kingslayer's accomplice."

"It seems that you are already aware of your situation, Levi Stern." A hoarse and ugly voice sounded from behind the crowd, and the jailers of the Dreadfort separated towards the two sides, revealing haggard faces and haggard faces. Armor of the Skeleton of Edwin Reeves.The enforcer of the kingdom had a broken right arm at the shoulder which was not healed, and had to hang it round his neck in a bandage of linen; At the waist, the four-foot-long blade almost dragged to the ground.

"Your Excellency the Marquis of Edwin Reeves." Li Wei said word by word, "It really is you, the accomplice of Raul Adams, the traitor who murdered His Majesty the Dragon King."

"It's a pity that you ran away that time." The terrifying man looked at Li Wei with hatred, "At the beginning of the negotiation, I was really afraid that reason would make you make concessions, Lord Griffin, because that It will make me unable to retaliate against the severed arm for a long time." His black lips parted, revealing the scorched and broken teeth inside, "It hurts, my arm hurts... only your blood can wash it away This kind of bone-deep pain..."

Li Wei took a deep breath, gripped the knight sword tightly with both hands, and laid the blade of the sword burning with silver-white grudge light across his chest. "Then come on, traitor, it is not so easy to get the life of the Griffon Lord, take your life in exchange."
