Chapter 945 - Investigate
Chapter 945: Investigate
Soon, a castle made out of metal was initiated by the battle fort. The only thing strange about this castle was its location.
Afterward, little puppets emerged and began carrying out valuable things from Abel’s dungeon.
When the last research spirit was moved out by a puppet, all valuable stuff from this place was cleared.
Abel connected to the closest research spirit. He realized how useful those things were. They were a wizard’s Wikipedia, with the added ice inheritance.
With the research spirit on top of the ice bed, he had a full law-defying wizard inheritance, making the research spirit much more important to Abel. He needed to protect it in the face of danger.
Abel walked out of the potion maker room again and lowered his voice. “Poly, if you trust me, bring your families to my place. I’ve opened the entrance, and you can go into a little castle in the backyard. Tell Gunter as well. There will be people protecting you there.
“Master Bennett, is there a problem?” Druid Poly asked in horror.
The words of Abel meant that the potion maker union wouldn’t be safe anymore, but it was already the safest place on the continent.
“Poly, didn’t you notice the change in the city recently?” Abel lowered his voice again.
“Yeah, there are more guards!” Druid Poly nodded.
She suddenly remembered the kingdom’s increasing defense.
” I don’t know where the danger is coming from. I believe my place can keep you safe!”
“Master Bennett, I’m your follower. I’ll go wherever you are going. It’s my responsibility to protect you!” Druid Poly did not think of her family first in the face of danger. Instead, she thought of Abel.
“Poly, I’m going with Big Druid Lendo to see the tree of life. I will be safe!” Abel smiled and explained.
“Master Bennett, just be careful!” Druid Poly added worriedly.
“Of course, Poly, don’t worry. I’ll let you know when I have any news!” Abel finished and walked towards Big Druid Lendo. He nodded, and the 2 left the union.
Abel transferred through the palace teleportation circle and arrived at the tree of life’s valley.
He immediately felt a desperate feeling coming from the tree of life. Since he communicated with it last time, their bond had strengthened.
He entered the valley and saw a ground of dried-up leaves. It seemed like this was how the tree of life communicated its feelings.
Abel ignited his soul speaker ability and immediately sensed a threat coming from the tree of life. It was a few times stronger than what he felt back in the union.
“Big Druid Lendo, we will soon be in big danger. Let the Queen know. If the tree of life is right, something big will happen today!” Abel’s face sank as he said.
“Master Bennett, does the tree of life know what danger it is?” Big Druid Lendo asked loudly.
Bay Law city had already used countless men to find this unknown danger, but they had no luck.
Abel connected to the tree of life again and asked. Soon, the image of a giant body with wings glowing in white light holding a blood-drenched long sword emerged from his power of will.
Beside it was the dead bodies of countless elves. Their blood glistened under the glowing white light.
“It’s an angel!” Abel gasped. There could be no wrong.
“Master Bennett, what did the tree of life say?” Big Druid Lendo saw Abel’s face changed, so he asked desperately.
“I saw someone with wings holding a sword, and the ground was covered with dead elves!” Abel lowered his voice.
“The Evil Kingdom!” Big Druid Lendo yelled. He waved his hand, and a mad wolf emerged beside him. He dashed towards the entrance.
He knew what danger was incoming, a disaster.
If the tree of life was right, the Evil kingdom would soon invade Bay Law City. It was the first time. His brain began to hurt just by thinking about the aftermath.
……..
The captain of the research department arrived at Lord Bali’s castle outside of the city. Since they were suspicious of hidden danger, he had brought along 4 ranks 16 druids along with them.
With this setup, taking over a castle should be easy.
“I am the royal research department’s, Captain Leo. I’m here on behalf of the queen. Lord Bali, come out immediately and let us investigate!” Captain Leon stepped in front of the gate and yelled.
Every castle was supposed to open its gate when a team of red-cloaked authorities arrived.
But no elves had said anything even though they were 10 meters from this castle, and the gate remained still.
“Master, there is a group of red cloaks outside!” A warrior of death ran up from the dungeon and bowed at Angelo Harmon.
“What? Ignited the protection circle and all the defense weapons immediately. It’s time for you guys to honor the family. Guide this castle by all means necessary!” Angelo lowered his voice as he looked into the eyes of that warrior.
He moved every warrior of death from his family’s secret warrior training base into this place. He did that for one reason, and that was dealing with situations like this.
All he needed was a little more time, and his mission would be complete.
“Die for our master!” The warrior of death flashed in certainty and ran out.
“Quick, how much longer till the circle is set up?” Angelo turned to the Magic circle makers and asked.
“Master, soon!” The elf magic circle maker stopped and replied.
“Who told you to stop. Quick, keep going!” Angelo yelled.
Setting up a super teleportation circle was no simple task. If he didn’t have that human magic circle maker from the Evil Kingdom as well as the vast amounts of resources as support, he would have never been able to build it by himself.
Since there were only the two of them, they had been working nonstop for the past month.
“Captain, something’s wrong. They are resisting!” A red cloak placed his hand on the city wall and discovered an invisible shield.
“Lord Bali, you are going against the queen!” Fury flashed on Captain Leo’s face. It had been many years since an elf had disobeyed him, not even big nobles.
As he said his words, a crossbow emerged from the castle wall and aimed at a red cloak.
“Fight, invade this castle, and drag Lord Bali out!” Captain Leo yelled as he threw a signal bomb to the sky.
As the bomb blasted into red sparkles, everyone around could see it clearly, even at noon.
It was a warning signal from this team of authority. They never fought alone, and the more overwhelming their power, the better it was.
Therefore, even with 4 rank 6 druids in the team, this signal bomb would attract more authorities to come for support.
A battle had begun, 4 rank 16 druids jumped on their mad wolf, and their hands began to glow. 8 more mad wolves were summoned as they dashed towards the city wall. The invisible shield had become noticeable.
Arrows shot out from the castle wall, 2 red cloaks had reacted slowly, and they were shot. They screamed in agony.
Even though they were only invading a castle, Captain Leo had taken it very seriously. That was why he brought 4 druids with him.
However, the red cloak authorities were all warrior elves. They were only to assist the investigation; they were not expecting Lord Bali to react so violently.
Also, this Lord Bali had a crossbow, which was not a simple weapon. In a peaceful place like this, owning a crossbow was against the law and enough to strip him of his title.
As the situation took a downturn with 2 red cloaks getting injured, Captain Leo knew this castle was hiding some secret. If not, Lord Bali wouldn’t have reacted so crazily.
Anyone could imagine the aftermath of attacking an authority near the kingdom’s city. What was Lord Bali thinking?
“All the warrior elves get back and take care of the injured ones. Druids, increase the attack!” Captain Leo yelled.
The warriors’ power was limited against a protection circle, so he didn’t want them to sacrifice themselves. As the 8 warrior elves retreated, 3 druids drew a volcano pattern. Against a protection circle like that, they could break it with one strike.
Simultaneously, the last druid let out a howl, and he began to transform into a werewolf. It was a Druid’s werewolf transformation spell.
The warrior of death on the castle was not afraid to die, but they had rarely faced druids.
However, their eyes were glowing red. They had undergone long years of death training, so they could ignite their life force into madness to counteract the suppression of those druids.
Elite druids would badly suppress the energy of normal warriors. Most of them could not even stand, let alone fight.
But those warriors of death had used a suicidal method. Sacrificing their life span to preserve their fighting ability. Even if they won, they wouldn’t be able to live for long.
Although death training was forbidden long ago, this tradition was still being carried out in noble families.
The warrior of death turned the crossbow on to a mad wolf but shooting someone as fast as a druid was almost impossible.
Arrows were shot, but none of them even got close to any druids.
As the warrior of death was making their crazy attacks, the elite druids had finished their volcano spell, and 3 little volcanos emerged on the ground in front of the castle.
Balls of lava shot out ruthlessly. After a few seconds, a crisp cracking sound emerged, and the protection circle was broken.
The lava balls did not stop. Instead, they slammed against the castle wall.
In the face of druids, those warriors of death were almost hopeless.
Although some of them were beyond the volcano’s attack range, getting killed was just a matter of time.
Meanwhile, that werewolf druid dashed forward and emerged in front of them. Their speed was helpless against the claw of a werewolf. Soon, those warriors of death turned into piles of scattered meat.
“Go and search!” Captain Leo did not smile. Breaking their defense was expected, but what was Lord Bali hiding?
