Chapter 21: Rebellion
A few more days passed. In the early morning of this day, the freezing cold wind howled and fluffy snowflakes fluttered in the sky. Outside the castle, at the end of the road not far away, the trees in the forest suddenly trembled.
With the sound of horses stomping on the ground, a middle-aged knight in brown armor and a long sword hung on his waist rushed out. He was pulling on the reins in one hand and bandaged in the other, and headed toward the castle with a grim expression.
"Stop, who!" The guard in front of the castle raised his spear and stopped the middle-aged knight."I'm the adjutant of Lord Xavier, Knight Gallo." The middle-aged knight pulled the reins, stopped the horse, and looked at the guard with a solemn expression.
The intelligence on the battlefield is sent back, and now I am asking to see Lord O'Queen immediately!" The captain of the guard rushed over after hearing the sound, and quickly confirmed the identity of the Gaero Knight, and quickly welcomed him into the castle. The second floor of the castle, inside the room .
Enzo sat cross-legged on the bed, his eyelids rolled, and he woke up from meditation. "It's snowing?"
He just opened his eyes and looked out the window. Dense snowflakes fluttered in the wind, and fell on the ground.
"According to the way the seasons are divided on the ice field, after the first snow falls, it is considered to have officially entered the winter."
Enzo looked complicated, sighed slightly, and pulled over his coat and draped it on his body.
"Chip, how is the simulated refining progress of [Purple Potion]?" Enzo asked suddenly. "According to the chip big data analysis mode, the simulation configuration of [Purple Potion] is 100% complete. After comparison of the simulated data , the similarity between [Purple Potion] and [Moon Secret Medicine] is 58%. The actual effect has not been tested. Unable to give real data." "Finally finished!"
Enzo's eyes flashed, and a trace of joy rose in his heart.In the past few days, except for daily meditation and deciphering witchcraft models, Enzo spent the rest of the time in the underground laboratory to refine potions.
Consuming a lot of materials, Enzo continued to explore and refine [Moon Spirit Secret Medicine] repeatedly, but after failing again and again, he finally accepted the fact that, in the absence of several main materials, Even if it is replaced with materials of similar nature, the Moon Spirit Secret Medicine cannot be refined successfully.
In the end, Enzo had to find another way.Through the analysis function of the chip, he simulated a formula of a potion with purple syringa as the main material. This potion was named [Purple Potion].
In the case of simulation comparison, [Purple Potion] and [Moon Spirit Secret Medicine] has a similarity of 58%, which is very likely to have the same curse effect. "Next, it depends on the actual effect." Enzo's eyes flashed, eager to try.He got up and prepared to go to the underground laboratory to refine the [Purple Potion], but as soon as he walked out the door, Enzo saw Pariste and walked towards him.
"Master Enzo, Master O'Queen invites you to the study." Parisite said.
"Now? Okay, I'll go right away." Enzo was slightly surprised, and followed Pariste towards the study.
As soon as he walked to the door of the study, Enzo heard the voice of the two talking.
"...It's true, the news was pried out from a branch next to an ice wolf family, and in Wolftail Town, the scout from Ironhorn City was indeed found." Enzo only heard the second half. , His voice was a little hoarse, and seemed very tired.
"So, is that wolf cub planning to join the Iron Scythe family?" O'Queen's low voice came.
"I'm afraid that's the case. According to that wolf family branch, Young Wolf Kyle contacted Ironhorn City a few months ago. It seems that he also knew that he could not stop Kaiyuan City's offensive, so he moved the people in Giant Wolf City in advance. Wealth is secretly transferred, in exchange for the blessing of Iron Horn."
"I don't care about money or the like, but Kyle must die!" O'Queen's voice was cold and seemed to be mixed with a strong killing intent. "Since this wolf cub dares to attack Enzo, he must pay the price of his life."
"If you insist on killing Kyle, then you should do it now." The hoarse voice said, "If the young wolf Kyle wants to defect to Iron Horn, he must pass through the Ice Punishment Forest, as long as our army intercepts it here. , We can definitely kill him!"
"Well, I will do it myself this time..."
Enzo stood at the door and heard a few conversations. The voice of talking with O'Queen seemed to have just returned from the battlefield of Wolf City, and brought some information about the young wolf Kyle and the Iron Scythe family.
Knocking on the door, Enzo pushed in.
"Father." As soon as he entered the study, Enzo saluted O'Queen, and then looked to the corner where a middle-aged man stood, wearing a somewhat dilapidated brown armor and a bandage on his arm. , Seems to have just experienced the battle before.
"Enzo, there has just been news from the battlefield that Great Wolf City has been breached by Tyron." O'Queen looked at Enzo and said solemnly, "Young Wolf Kyle wants to defect to Iron Horn, so he will definitely Pass through the ice penalty forest."
"I plan to bring a cavalry forward to intercept, so Kaiyuan City will be temporarily managed by you."
"Tayron has already breached the Great Wolf City?" Enzo's eyes flickered, but then he nodded and said, "Don't worry, father, I will be optimistic about Kaiyuan City."
...
Outside the castle, in the open space in front of the gate.
More than a hundred cavalry assembled into a square formation. O'Queen rode a tall horse at the forefront, dressed in pitch-black armor, and was already ready to go. In the cold wind and fine snow, there was not much speech. After he briefly explained the purpose of this trip, He led the cavalry towards the ice penalty forest.
In the study, Enzo stood in front of the window, watching the cavalry regiment disappear into the distance.
"Pariste, take Geiro down to rest first." Turning around, Enzo said to Pariste.
Geiro had experienced battles on the battlefield before, and then sent the intelligence back to Kaiyuan City overnight. At this time, because of a shoulder injury, he did not follow O'Queen to intercept Kyle and was left in Kaiyuan City to cultivate.
"Yes, master." The Pariste head, and then took Geiro down.
The two left the study, Pariste walked in front on one leg. He was very familiar with the castle and knew that there were many vacant rooms on the first floor, so after going down the stairs, he quickly led Geiro to a room outside.
"You rest here for a while now, and I ask the servant to prepare food for you."
Pariste said as he pushed open the door.
"Does the injury on your shoulder need to be bandaged again? The doctor in the castle..." Pariste said, looking back at Geiro's shoulder, but when he turned around, he just met him cold eyes.
"Sorry, Pariste!"
Geiro snarled suddenly, the injured arm slammed out the short knife around his waist, and the bandage around his shoulders was also torn away. For a moment when Pariste was stupefied, Gero rushed forward and pierced his knife. Front chest.
"Uh...you!!" Baerette's eyes were full of doubt, and he raised his trembling arm in disbelief.
"I don't want to kill you, but there is no way, who made you a diehard O'Queen." Gero's eyes were fierce, and the short knife shattered Pariste's heart. "After today, Kaiyuan City will welcome here comes the new owner!"
puff! Pulling out the short knife, Bainette's body fell heavily to the ground.
"Huh—" Geiro took a deep breath while looking at the corpse on the ground, his eyes flashed with excitement.
He closed the door, walked quickly to the window, carefully took out a cylindrical iron pipe from his arms, gently pulled the ring, and a dull sound, a silver-gray signal bounced up mid-air.
Outside Kaiyuan city, the trees in the forest trembled.
Many soldiers who were hidden in the dark and dressed in the costumes of the Iron Sickle family rushed out at this moment and went straight to Kaiyuan City.
