The Emerald Tower

Chapter 373 Under the Shadow III

With bursts of low-pitched spells in Tom's hand, a bright magical aura began to appear, and then enveloped Dean in it. +

This kind of irradiation lasted for about five seconds before it completely stopped.

Wiping the sweat off his forehead, Tom said to Dean with a trace of embarrassment: "Master, it's not a magic mark! It should be something else... The teacher should be able to check more deeply, but I can only do this !"

"Well! You've tried your best!"

Dean nodded, comforting the servant.

After thinking that he had been tampered with by the female assassin, Dean immediately asked his servant to help check—although he was familiar with the power of magic, he still needed a real magician on the premise that he could not use it. The wizard came to help him.

"How about it?"

The Archduke Swordsman and Earl Merry walked in.

"As I guessed—the lady chose another way to achieve her original goal!"

Dean shrugged and leaned back in his chair.

"Is that so?"

The Grand Duke's swordsman frowned, and the expression on his face was a bit ugly.

As a lady who longs for freedom, the Grand Duke's swordsman hates restraint, and what he hates even more is being 'used' by others.

"Don't worry, I will accompany you and spend it together!"

A fencing master who doesn't know what to do, can only start from the standpoint of a friend.

"Thank you for everything you have done—you saved Meri, you saved me... The Zelgon family will be the strongest ally of the Meri family in the future! I swear by Meri's name!"

Earl Merry who was at the side said suddenly, and a white light shone on his body. After a while. A ray of light separates from it. It fell on Dean.

Contract oath!

"Earl Merry, you don't have to do this, I'm just doing it for myself, not..."

"It is a fact that you saved Meri! Therefore, I am willing to be your ally——in the immediate predicament,

I am also willing to help you through, is that guy called Hules? I'll turn his head off for you, along with the 'frat' guys! "

Earl Merry interrupted Dean's words, the earl who learned everything from the Grand Duke's swordsman. I am grateful to Dean; similarly, I hate the assassins and killers of the Brotherhood very much.

Therefore, when he said the last sentence, the earl was completely murderous.

Far more terrifying than the previous silence.

Before, if Earl Merry, who was only angry because of the sudden assassin, could still restrain his anger, after he learned the final truth, he was unable to suppress his anger at all.

After his daughter was tied up, his 'sluggishness' was enough to make the earl feel a deep sense of shame.

Even, he didn't know how to face his daughter now.

after all. He has always boasted that he loves his daughter very much, but now her daughter has been replaced by an assassin. As a father, he didn't even know.

What a mockery.

How angry this is!

The roiling anger made Earl Merry look like an active volcano that was about to erupt. It was just a loud breathing sound, but at this moment it was like wind and thunder.

Hulong, Hulong!

Under a looming huge phantom, Earl Merry turned around and was about to leave.

"My lord, please wait a moment!"

Dean stopped him.

"Leave it to me without worry!"

Lord Merry said so.

"The Earl of Meri's strength is enough to reassure me, but... what I am worried about is not the strength, but other things—Master Earl, are you sure that you can find Hures and other members of the Brotherhood without any problems?" Are you trying to scare the snake away? You must know that assassins and killers are as cunning as thieves, once they find out that something is wrong, they will definitely flee thousands of miles away, and then look for opportunities again!"

Dean persuaded.

"My lord, calm down a little bit—if you can't solve these assassins and killers once and for all, you will definitely have endless troubles. Naturally, you don't need to worry, but Meili...you need to think about Meili!"

The Grand Duke Swordsman also echoed.

Faced with the issue concerning his daughter, Earl Merry backed down.

He shook his chubby figure, returned to his seat, looked at Dean and the archduke swordsman, frowned and asked, "Dean, Yitris, what should we do now?"

"The best way is to lure these guys out—they are now targeting Dean, so we will leave Merri County tomorrow and head to Nangang County. On the way, they will definitely choose the opportunity to attack! At that time, it will be us Now is the chance to counterattack!" said the Grand Duke Swordsman, "Most of the journey from Meili County to Nangang County is on the plains, and there are very few places suitable for ambushes. We only need to keep an eye on the remaining few places!"

"I'll give orders immediately!"

Earl Merry stood up again.

"Wait, Lord Earl!"

Dean stopped again.

"Although the instructor's plan is feasible, it has a big loophole - everything is based on the other party's appearance. If the other party does not appear, everything will be useless! You know, the reason why the other party will attack me is that Because the other party regards me as a competitor within the other party's forces, and if such a competitor shows an appearance that does not conform to a competitor, the other party is likely to guess something! Moreover, the simplest temptation will make us helpless ——Inform the instructor, or Earl Merry, that I am a fake, a counterfeit! Then, he only needs to watch our actions quietly to judge the general truth!"

Dean looked at Earl Merry and the Archduke Swordsman and explained.

"Although we only need to continue to remain indifferent, my crisis can be resolved, but I think neither the instructor nor the Earl is willing to do this?"

Dean looked at the two of them while talking.

The two nodded at the same time.

In fact, he didn't want to get nothing like this.

Apart from the code of conduct of the 'Brotherhood', Dean did not want the other party to continue to stay outside the South. more xp. It was one of Dean's biggest pursuits.

As for the Archduke Swordsman and Earl Merry?

The Archduke Swordsman had the same idea as Dean.

And so was Lord Merry. Of course, it also includes venting anger.

"Dean, what should we do?"

Earl Merry asked simply.

"We need to draw the opponent out in the same way as the competitor of the other side—even if the competitor is injured and very weak, but she is a disguise after all, and she is also worried about being discovered, so she can only settle for a short time , and then, go to the next hidden place to continue recuperating... Lord Earl, I need your cooperation!"

Dean looked at Earl Merry with a smile.

"no problem!"

Earl Merry nodded immediately.

...

The night is getting deeper and deeper.

The deep black completely enveloped the earth.

Even the guards of the lord of a county are a little drowsy at this time.

And when several guards leaned against the sentry post near the gate and slightly closed their eyes, a figure quickly turned over the courtyard wall of Earl Merry's mansion.

The speed is fast and the movement is very light.

but. When he landed, his figure staggered slightly.

but. This figure did not stop even though it was staggering, and ran towards the distant street at an extremely fast speed.

Along the way, this figure shuttled through the shadows and darkness without revealing any figure at all.

Compared with the best thieves, it is not bad at all.

It's just that the speed was fast at the beginning, but it became slower and slower later on.

Even though he tried his best to adjust his breathing, the rapid rise and fall of his chest made anyone who saw it understand that this figure was exhausted.

Fortunately, the figure soon reached its destination.

A small building in the lower city, close to the civilian area.

The small building is two stories high, with a yard surrounded by a wooden fence.

In the yard, there are no carriages parked, no noble lawns, only some easy-to-grow vegetables are planted.

The figure turned into the yard without hesitation, and then knocked on the door with a fast and rhythmic voice.

The door opened silently——

This is a middle-aged man who looks honest and honest.

The years have left thick marks on his face, and his gray hair indicates that he has exhausted his energy prematurely.

However, when this honest middle-aged man saw this figure, a compelling light burst out from his eyes, and the next moment, he helped the figure in.

Then, after checking the surroundings faster than ordinary knights, he returned to the room.

The door closed silently.

However, in the next second, it suddenly opened again.

The middle-aged man came out again, checked the surroundings, and then returned to the room again, closing the door again.

After more than ten minutes, the door did not open.

And until this time, a black figure came out from the shadow of the street.

This black shadow stared at the small building firmly.

As if to imprint it in my heart.

Then, it turned to the corner of the street again, and quickly disappeared.

"Sure enough, apart from the necessary manpower to carry out the task, another manpower will be deployed—the double insurance of the 'Brotherhood'!"

The middle-aged man with a face full of signs of aging spoke softly and weakly in a voice that did not fit a man at all.

"This is something we should be grateful for! Instructor, let's start the next step! Just the situation in front of us won't make that Hules hooked - he should be very clear about his opponent, it won't be that simple!"

Uncovering the hood, Dean said with a smile.

"Ok!"

The Archduke Swordsman took off the human skin mask on his face, and then helped Dean put on makeup.

ps first update~

I still clean the house today... When I was washing the toilet, the decadence was completely defeated by the smell of the toilet cleaner...

Decadence is extremely suspicious that his father bought a fake one...

I will talk about the second one later, and I would like to say hello to everyone first - the end of the year is approaching, and I have a lot of things to do, I hope everyone will forgive me~ (to be continued...)
