Skeleton King

Nuo Ou left the study and saw Ace at first sight.

Nou didn't know why, Ace stood there, looking worse than his face, and blamed himself more than him.Nou walked up to Ace, and he saw Ace's lips tremble, as if he wanted to say something to him.

Nou is glad that he has calmed down his emotions at this time, although he believes that Ace must be able to see that something is wrong with him, "Sorry, I made you worry."

Ace never thought that he would hear this from Nou's mouth, obviously, obviously Nou knew that he was the master of the city that never sleeps.

"The Skull Knights attacked from the Warcraft Forest, and the Territory of Chaos must have suffered heavy losses. I know you spent a lot of effort there." Nou never thought that the Skull Knights would have a relationship with Ace.

The words that had been organized for hours suddenly paled, and Ace couldn't get them out.

Ace held Nou's arm weakly, and said softly: "I should say I'm sorry. It's me who should make amends." clear.

Nou rested his head on Ace's shoulder.

He closed his eyes and let the weight of his whole body rest on Ace, "I'm sorry for what you have to say. The Skull Knights not only invaded the province of Louisiana, but also invaded the Eiffel province of the Finger Empire, the Pansy Empire Even the Finger Empire can't do anything about it, so what can you do about it?"

Ace felt extremely uncomfortable, because of his mistake, because of the arrogance of the Twin Cities, he paid such a price.

Nou's last sentence became the last straw that broke the camel's back, "Ace, it's a good thing you're here. It's a good thing you're here."

Ace felt the strength of Nou's leaning over, the completely relaxed body in front of him.Ace's eyes were sore, he thought, how can I tell you the truth if you are like this?

……

On the third morning of the accident in the eastern plains of the Louisiana province, two very important guests came to the capital of the Pansy Empire.

Claudia Love, the original Claudia Richter, the eldest daughter of the old Earl Richter, she complied with the wishes of the old Earl Richter, and married the leader of the Richter Knights, Lo husband.When something happened to the Richter family's fiefdom, the old Earl Richter was in charge of the family, and Claudia Love and her husband Sir Love came to the imperial capital on behalf of the family.

Jacob, who may not be well-known in the Pansy Empire, is well-known in the Magic Island.Jacob is the closed disciple of the owner of the Magic Island, and one of the most likely candidates to inherit the Magic Island in the future.

These two entered the imperial capital of the Pansy Empire on the same day.

Claudia Love is a stunner with silver hair, silver eyes and a graceful figure. She doesn't come to the capital often, but just like Marina Homer, Claudia Love attracts everyone's attention every time she appears .And compared to Marina Homer, Claudia Love is more sleeved and good at dancing, and has a better relationship with the noble lady of the imperial capital.

When Jacob first appeared in the Pansy Palace, everyone who saw him felt that he was unusual.In him, you can't see his awe of the royal power at all. The appearance of him walking into the Pansy Palace is the same as that of Jean walking on ordinary streets. His attitude towards Prince Xiben is the same as that of ordinary people.

Claudia Love is a vassal of the Pansy royal family and cannot enter the palace until Prince Xiben is summoned.Jacob went to the palace on the day he arrived at the Pansy Empire. He didn't come to the Pansy Empire to visit the mountains and rivers.

……

When Jacob saw Prince Xiben, Prince Xiben was wearing a black knight suit, a black high-necked cloak with gold threads, and a crown symbolizing the crown prince of the pansy empire. There were no gems on it, only The king's crown will be inlaid with gold, white and purple gemstones.Although Prince Xiben is only one step away from the king's position, as long as he is not on the throne, he will not wear the king's crown.

Prince Nishimoto's attire is his envoy to the Enchanted Isle.

But it was obvious that Jacob didn't want to cooperate with Prince Nishimoto. He was wearing a gray robe, which was thin and shabby.But some people's demeanor does not need clothing to reflect it at all.

"So, that necromancer is still in the imperial capital of the Pansy Empire?" After Prince Xiben met Jacob, neither of them said polite words, and they directly talked about the topic.This is not their first meeting. If Prince Nishimoto takes the throne of the Pansy Empire and Jacob takes charge of the Magic Island, there will be more opportunities for them to cooperate in the future.

They've even been in touch on and off since ages ago.

Jacob said, "Yes, that's what the horoscope shows."

"Astrology. It's astrology again." Prince Xiben's voice was a little mocking.

In the early days of the Pansy Empire, Alexander I personally ordered the killing of the last astrologer, completely getting rid of the astrologer's control over the royal family.

But I don't know when, the Pansy Empire and the Finger Empire began to rely on the prophecy of the owner of the magic island.The owner of the magic island is not even an orthodox astrologer, he is just a lucky kid who was lucky enough to get the inheritance of an astrologer thousands of years ago.History is always strikingly similar. The kingship managed to get rid of the shadow of the stars, but it had to go back to the old way.

Jacob did not raise any objection to Prince Xiben's words.

Maybe it was because Prince Xiben covered it up so well that he didn't notice the mockery, or maybe he heard it but didn't care.Magic Island is now above the two empires, not simply because of the trust of the emperor, but because of their absolute strength.

Prince Xiben said: "There are several 10 people in the empire. Are you going to check them one by one? Did the astrology give you any hints?"

Prince Nishimoto can deduce without using the astrology that the necromancer who broke through the outskirts of the Pansy Empire's capital, and the knights who drove the Skeleton Knights to attack the Pansy Empire's Louisiana Province and the Finger Empire's Eiffel Province The necromancers in the past are likely to be the same person.

The timing of the two events is too close.

Compared with two undead mages appearing on the mainland at the same time, one undead mage often travels between the imperial capital of the Pansy Empire and the Warcraft Forest. This guess is more reliable.Furthermore, Jacob has a special status in Magic Island, and Magic Island sending him to the Pansy Empire can explain a lot of problems.

However, Prince Xiben searched all the emperors of the Pansy Empire, but he did not find any trace of the undead wizard.He was rather curious as to what Jacob was going to do.

The necromancer broke through in the outskirts of the Pansy Empire's imperial capital on the same day that Prince Xiben held a banquet in disregard of the ban. This was indeed a slap in the face.But compared to the capture of 9 holy-level powerhouses from Magic Island and the extremely precious scroll of instant teleportation that was consumed, his humiliation to the Pansy Empire is nothing.

Someone took the initiative to take over the hassle.Prince Xiben was extremely happy.

Jacob took out a crystal ball from the space ring, and explained to Prince Xiben: "This is a legendary magic item, not as famous as the Green family's Hailan staff, the armor of the dead world, and the immortal darkness, because it The function is very tasteless. It can find out all the people with magical talents in a certain range, without them needing to touch the crystal ball one by one. Usually, it is mostly used by the wizards of the magic island to bring the magicians to the two empires to find Gifted student, now we can use it in other ways."

Prince Nishimoto asked: "But the crystal ball can only see the elemental affinity of those people. Whether they are better at light-attribute magic or dark-attribute magic, we don't know."

Jacob's answer was simple, "Let him cast a few spells, and if he's a necromancer, he'll reveal himself."

"The guardian knights of the Pansy Empire Imperial Capital will fully cooperate with you." Prince Nishimoto did not find out the loopholes in Jacob's plan, unless they found the undead mage hiding in the Pansy Empire Imperial Capital, they could not catch him he.

However, nine saint-level powerhouses were lost on Magic Island, and Prince Nishimoto did not believe that Jacob's arrival was still unprepared.

They have known each other for a long time and often exchange news, but Prince Xiben has not seen Jacob make a move so far.During this meeting, Prince Nishimoto even broke through the holy rank. However, he still couldn't see the depth of Jacob's strength.

This made Prince Xiben even more afraid of Jacob.

Prince Xiben couldn't help but think that it would be a good thing for the undead mage to have the opportunity to see Jacob's true strength.

Of course, the premise is that they can find the undead wizard.

……

Duke Green's mansion, Ace's bedroom.

Ace sat on the bed, and the bed was full of notes from the magician. These were either from the library of the old Skeleton King, or from the water mage on the magic island they had just captured.There are also a lot of sapphires scattered on the ground. If someone who knows the magic circle sees where these sapphires are placed, they will understand that they form a formation that gathers magic elements.

The bedroom is also full of water elements with light attributes.

But in the center of the bedroom, a trace of dark magical elements suddenly appeared, and slowly increased.Besides Ace, there was another figure in the bedroom.

Ace is already very familiar with the breath of the visitor, although the visitor rarely comes to him on his own initiative.Ace was still staring at the magic notes, and at this moment he didn't forget to memorize the spell, he said without raising his head, "General Arnold, what's the matter?"

General Arnold felt uncomfortable with the overly strong magical elements of the light attribute in the bedroom, but he knew better that in such an environment, he was even more uncomfortable after Ace broke through as a mage.

General Arnold stood silently for a while, knelt down on one knee, and said, "Your Highness, this is not your fault, you don't need to make amends like this."

Ace still didn't look at him. Normally, Ace treated Bill very casually. He was originally Ace's prisoner of war; , he is extremely respectful.

Even now, Ace didn't want General Arnold to kneel for a long time. He explained: "I'm not punishing myself. I got the news that the people of Magic Island and the knights of Pansy Empire are searching for the necromancer. They shouldn't I will find the Duke Green's Mansion, but I still have to make some preparations as soon as possible."

In the past, liches planned to stay in this world for a long time, and they would also learn some magic from other departments, but most of them were after they advanced to the holy rank for many years.General Arnold hesitated: "Your Highness, learning water magic now will affect your own strength."

"Then I can't just sit here and wait until Jacob finds me." Ace raced to memorize the spell.He is very talented, but there is too little time left for him.

"Your Highness, Jacob has seen you in the Finger Empire. It is too dangerous for you to stay here." This is the purpose of General Arnold's coming to Ace. He wants to persuade Ace to leave the capital of the Pansy Empire temporarily. , "Do you want to go back to Eternal Night City first?"

Ace finally raised his head and looked at General Arnold, "General Arnold, I didn't punish you, but it doesn't mean that this matter has been exposed. There are a total of 1106 soul fires in the eastern plains of the Louisiana province. I want you Send them back to the present world yourself."

General Arnold was silent for a moment, and said: "We have tried everything. Bill is researching a new kind of magic potion. We can barely send them back to the present world, but it is definitely impossible for them to be human bodies."

"Your Highness, we will do our best to make up for our mistakes in the Twin Cities. But your safety is more important than the Night City, the Night City, and everything else." General Arnold persuaded again: "The owner of the Night City is the master of the necromancer. It is only a matter of time before the news spreads, the Duke of Green will soon know that it is you, and this time it is the province of Louisiana that happened again..."

"But if I leave the imperial capital now, it's really over for me and Nuoou." Ace's brows were light, and he said: "You don't need to say any more, I know what I'm doing. When you send those 'people' When I go back to Louisiana Province, I will naturally go to Nou and explain everything to him in person.”
