Borg Clooney sat on the wooden bed in his room in a daze for a long time, and finally wiped his face vigorously.He is no longer young, but because of his usual decent clothes, he still looks vigorous.But now, he seems to have aged ten years out of thin air, and the wrinkles in the corners of his eyes and between his brows hide bitterness and frustration.

The old butler has been trapped in his room since yesterday, with guards standing outside the door, unable to go out at all.

Terrence's actions were too fast, and almost when the rumors about Alderete City spread from the imperial capital, someone arrested him, without giving Borg a chance to react.

But who can blame this?You can only blame him for being too greedy.

When the old duke was still alive, Borg had been in private with the gentry chamber of commerce in the territory, but he was cautious at that time, and he knew very well the truth that you can't eat more than you can eat.

But when the old Aldretts died, his mind was quickened.The little master was young and grew up in a honeypot, so it was not worth guarding against at all. It was at this time that Borg became bold.Coupled with the fact that Terrence obviously alienated him later and reused Adam Smith, this made Borg more eager to seek more benefits for himself.

After the acting consul sent by the queen returned to the imperial capital from Alderete, Terrence focused on the academy again, giving Borg a further opportunity.

He united with various forces in Alderete City to plunder wildly, and under the instigation of these people, he became more reckless.It wasn't until the heavy snow last year and the next year's drought that Borg realized belatedly that he had no way to bear the consequences of his greed.

He thought about stopping in time, maybe there is still room for maneuver.It's a pity that he got too deep, and any force in Alderete City was deeply implanted in his bone marrow.Even if he wanted to stop doing it alone, how could those people let go of this mastermind who could be blamed?

Most of Borg's greedy interests are still firmly in the hands of this group of people. He is reluctant to part with the money, so he naturally gives others a way to manipulate him.Now he was finally dragged into the abyss by his own ambition.

--Do not!

Borg stood up abruptly, and he walked back and forth pulling his hair. He was cornered and still kept fighting.

How could he just sit and wait like this!

Think of a way, think of a way...

Borg Clooney was rummaging around the house like a headless chicken. Before he was locked in, he was searched and most of the things in the house were taken away. Now he can even communicate with the outside world. There are no communicators.

But he has lived for more than 40 years, and he has a lot of ambitions, and he still has some shrewdness.

There is a secret compartment under his bed, the size of a palm, hidden in the corner, so it escapes the search.There was a magic scroll in it, from the old duke's private treasury.There is a positioning magic engraved inside, which can quickly move people within a kilometer to the teleportation array of the mansion.

Before the space teleportation scroll was researched, one could imagine how precious this half-finished product of alchemy, which contained majestic magic power, was.

It used to be the life-saving means of the old duke's collection, but it was a pity that the old duke passed away suddenly, and this thing was secretly hidden by Borg.

Today, it's Borg's last resort.

——As long as he can leave here and reach Aldrete through the teleportation array, he will have a way to disappear from now on.

The guards standing at the door were chatting in low voices. One of them suddenly turned his head and asked his companion hesitantly, "Did you hear anything?"

"What?" The other person gave him a strange look, listened quietly for a while, and shook his head: "There is no sound at all!"

"No..." The guard scratched his hair, "It's not a voice, I can't tell - it's just that the air seemed to jump suddenly..."

The guard said that he also felt that he was a little nervous, looked at the open window at the end of the corridor, and explained to himself: "It's nothing, probably there was a wind blowing past just now."

A warrior is far less sensitive to magic fluctuations than a mage. If he opens the door behind him now, he will probably only see an empty room.

Borg found a retreat for himself, but fate did not favor him.

In order to prevent things from changing unexpectedly, Terrence had asked someone to seal up the teleportation array long ago. Without the magic crystals capable of transporting magic power, the huge magic array was just a gorgeous and complicated beauty. Patterns.

Borg Clooney's heart sank in an instant.

The ups and downs of mood pushed his emotions to the edge of losing control.He threw himself on the ground as if he had gone crazy, and used his fingers to dig hard at the groove where the magic crystal was missing, as if he wanted to dig the magic crystal out of the ground.

It wasn't until his nails split in two that Borg woke up from his trance.

He blinked his cloudy eyes, and stood up from the floor with his legs propped up - the tighter and tighter suffocation forced him out.

So what if there is no magic crystal?He can go find it.Already here, how could Borg watch the opportunity to escape slip away from him.

The warehouse is too far away, but Terrence's study is on the third floor.There are two boxes of fire magic crystals kept by the old duke there, which can be used just right. The only concern is a pot of man-eating plants that Terrence kept there.

Look at their young master, who obviously doesn't care about anything, but is very good at using some disgusting little tricks.

Borg thought maliciously, his expression distorted and ugly.

He knew that Terrence would be called to the palace by the queen today—that group of idiot guards had no idea when to shut up when they were chatting.

So he carefully avoided the occasional maid who passed by, and walked all the way to Terrence's bedroom cautiously.That Adam Smith is really a loyal dog of the little duke, and now he is leading a group of servants to tidy up the hall and the food, as if the young master had just escaped from the bandits.

And that just happens to reduce the risk of Borg walking the corridors.

He took an old dress out of Terrence's closet, and went all the way to the study on the third floor.

High-level magic plants have a certain IQ, which allows them to distinguish closeness and estrangement. It is because of this intelligence that mages will carefully cultivate magic plants, but the intelligence of these low-level creatures is nothing more than that.

After all, their ability to distinguish is limited, and they don't have eyes that can make accurate judgments, which gave Borg Clooney a chance.

He quickly flashed into the study room, and immediately threw the clothes on the potted plant. The familiar smell soothed the magic vine's eagerness to attack, and he held the clothes and gently shook the branches.

This unsophisticated deception can't last long. Once the magic vine finds that the clothes are not people who can move, it will still slam the vines towards Borg.

Therefore, Borg did not dare to waste time.He walked quickly to the bookshelf placed against the wall, and after pressing the hidden mechanism, a hidden compartment popped out from the bottom shelf, which contained the magic crystal that Borg needed.

In addition, under the two boxes, there is also a thick stack of manuscript paper.

Time was running out, and Borg should have left here quickly with enough magic crystals, but he took out the stack of papers by accident.

It was densely packed with calculation formulas. Borg hadn't had much contact with magic, so he couldn't understand them at all. Until he saw a blueprint of a magic circle, his eyes immediately became sharp.

He seemed to be familiar with that circular magic circle, and had accidentally seen it on Lancer Schevenlieu's body.It was a long time ago, but because I was very surprised at that time, I still have the impression to this day.

He thought it was a tattoo at first, but now it doesn't look like that.

Terrence and Lancer came back from the outside together, and when they entered the living room, they saw Angus sitting on the sofa at first sight.

He frowned indiscriminately, then smiled and thought of this cheap brother and asked, "You're not in class, why are you coming home?"

Angus stood up, with concern for Terrence written all over his face, and said: "I heard at school that you were summoned by the queen, and I was a little worried, so I came back to have a look. Brother, it's really great that you came back safely. Makes me happy."

"What? Do you think I'll be put in prison directly?" Thinking of the painful experience before, facing Angus's hypocrisy, Terrence couldn't help but sarcastically retorted.

He shrugged, took off the gloves, took them off and handed them to Lancer together with the cane, shrugged: "I'm lucky, I won't go to prison, as for some people, I'm afraid it's more unlucky."

Terrence gave Angus a meaningful look.

Angus' face faded in time, and he didn't know whether it was because of Terrence's sarcasm, or he was worried about something else, or it was just a disguise.

Terrence didn't bother to pay attention to him, so he walked to the sofa and sat down. Lancer immediately brought cold drinks with a straight face and hospitality.

The interaction between the two of them caused Angus to bite his lip.He has always had vague feelings for the knight who followed Terrence.At the beginning, he was jealous because of the other party's single-minded attitude towards Terrence, and later, because of the constant attention, he developed the ambition to rob.

It's a pity that this man doesn't care about him. No matter how he behaves in front of him, the other party still only has his good brother in his eyes.The more he couldn't get it, the more Angus couldn't forget it.He kept his eyes on Lanser, and his obsession seemed to make the blond knight with his back facing him but sensitive to frown.

He was so tired of the young man's stalking, he sat down quietly, diagonally opposite Terrence, and did not let his little master see Angus' performance.

—God, don't give him any more trouble.If Terrence alienated him because of this guy, it would be a disaster for no reason.

The blond knight, who is still thousands of miles away from falling in love, has now learned to clean himself up spontaneously and consciously.

The author has something to say:

Just as Terrence was about to take a rest, the guards guarding Borg rushed in from the annex.After all, they were not stupid enough to get home. After a while, they still opened the door uneasy to check the situation. The empty room frightened them so much that they broke out in cold sweat.

The two of them searched carefully and still couldn't find any trace of Borg, so they had to confess their crimes in fear.

Angus secretly thought of an idea when he heard the news.

Terrence and Borg were not close, but Angus took advantage of it.He and Borg Clooney have been in contact with each other in private. It has to be said that he has been relying on the convenience of the old butler for him in the past few years, so he also vaguely knows about Borg's personal schemes in Alderete.

That's why he's back today - to see what Terrence has in mind for Borg Clooney.

To be honest, Borg is the biggest weight that Angus can hold in Aldelete's house.If he wants to replace Terrence, this old housekeeper can play a big role.

Once he completely loses power, it will indeed be a heavy blow to Angus.

Hearing the news from the guards, Angus immediately looked at Terrence.The other party still maintained the composure that everything was under control, and Angus hated his attitude of not being able to see anything.

Of course, Terrence couldn't remain indifferent, he didn't expect that Borg would still have the strength to escape.But he was not flustered, because he knew that the Duke's mansion was located in a remote place, and it was impossible for the other party to escape from the mansion by bypassing so many servants - he didn't even have a place to hide.

Although he didn't know the existence of the magic scroll, Terrence immediately thought of the transfer array leading to the territory in the mansion.

Fate has indeed given up on Borg Clooney.

Even though he tried everything he could to leave, he still failed in the end.

When Terrence led people to the vicinity of the teleportation array, the butler in distress had already activated the teleportation array. The fluorescence of magic elements seemed to illuminate his brand new future, and Borg couldn't help showing a proud smile at the distant figure.

But the smile was quickly replaced by twisted horror.

Terrence took out his staff and pointed it at one of the magic crystals in the teleportation array. Magical disorder would cause the teleportation array to fail in distortion, and the consequences would be very dangerous—for the user, who would care what happened to Borg? Woolen cloth?

In the end, the teleportation circle stopped working before it was completed, and Borg himself stayed in the magic circle, and what disappeared were his two calves.

The blood quickly stained the ground under Bog's body, and the pain of the broken bones made the middle-aged man cry out in pain.

Terrence strolled up to Borg, looked down at the man who had betrayed him again and again, and said softly, "You know? People who eat too much will starve to death."

I gave you a chance this time, but you never satisfied.

Borg's eyes blurred with cold sweat and tears reflected Terrence's happy smile.At this moment, the body that was already cold due to blood loss felt even more bone-chilling.

It was his premonition of death.

Late update.

In the evening, I was dragged by a friend to watch Little Times 3. For two hours, I was stunned by the shock of "why don't you tear it up?" Yes, what about the agreed-upon annual drama? You donkey me (╯‵ ′)╯︵┻━┻The only reward is the 3-minute episode of Neil and Gu Zhun, and the 3 words written after staying up all night. It’s too sad_(: [-]∠ )_
