Chapter 26: Chapter 26: The Assassin

Find a silver tungsten wire in the alchemy room, and carefully place it between the two magic rods.

Silver tungsten wire is a product of alchemy. It relies on magic to refine silver tungsten wire. The effect and durability are hundreds of times better than ordinary tungsten wire. The most important thing is that it can transmit magic elements of various attributes.

But these were not enough. He picked out a white crystal that had exhausted its magic power, and hollowed out the middle to form a transparent glass cover. However, the glass cover was a bit thick, and there were irregular diamond faces on the surface. The light coming out is similar to the glare lights in a nightclub.

But Aslan didn't care at all, what he had to do was very simple, just turn on the lights.

The last step is to evacuate the inside of the lampshade, and then introduce the magic power. Sure enough, the silver tungsten filament lights up slowly. As Aslan's magic power strengthens, the light becomes brighter.

"Successful." Aslan laughed excitedly, and his laughter even alarmed Arthur downstairs.

It's just that Arthur just glanced at the roof, and personally led people to guard around the city lord's mansion.

Put the designed magic lamp together with a piece of white magic crystal, engrave a simple conductive magic circle, and then put it in a box, and quickly create a simple desk lamp.

Now that a sample has come out, Aslan immediately perfected and beautified it with the help of divine magic.

The original irregular diamond-faced lampshade was replaced by a smooth and bright thin lampshade by Aslan, and the original simple shape began to become elegant and luxurious, very in line with the aesthetics of the nobility.

The final light adjuster and lamp stand were also replaced with high-quality peach wood, which is the most magical wood. By the way, a disassembly dead door was designed on it. Once disassembled, the vacuum environment in the lampshade would be destroyed. Get up, as long as the light is turned on, the silver tungsten wire inside will burn out within two days.

This seemingly inconspicuous little trick has managed to make Claire's Magic Tower monopolize the magic lamp for more than ten years, but it was finally cracked by Aslan relying on the knowledge of his previous life, which also allowed him to join the lucrative business of the magic lamp.

After finishing the beautification, Aslan gathered all the required materials and produced two sets in one go. Seeing the soft lighting, Aslan suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

"That's a good reason! It really serves multiple purposes."

Aslan laughed again.

In the early morning of the next day, Aslan led the entire knight guard out and didn't come back until evening. There were also two fewer knights in the knight guard, and the remaining knights all showed tired and sad expressions.

Such days lasted until the third day, and most of the knight guards had disappeared, but this time they were dispatched with more than 50 Merlot troops.

Najie has been watching all this quietly for the past few days. It's not that he doesn't want to follow out, but that he was noticed by Arthur not long after he followed. In order to avoid being discovered, Najie did not continue to follow.

But he was sure that Aslan must have discovered something?

Judging from the loss of manpower in the past few days, it is hard to find the ancient ruins.

On the evening of the third day, before Aslan came back, a knight came back with blood on his body. The knight didn't stay for long, and took away more than 50 Merlot soldiers.

This made Najie very sure that Aslan must have discovered the ancient ruins, and the ruins should have been developed to a very critical moment.

"Sure enough, the ancient ruins are not so easy to develop." Najie also heard a lot about the ancient ruins when he was in the Kaimen Bandit Group.

Some big families eventually led to the demise of the whole family because of the development of ancient ruins, and some small families succeeded in excavating ancient ruins. From an unknown small family, it has become one of the best big families.

So Najie very much hopes that Aslan will fail to develop the ancient ruins, and it is better to die in the ancient ruins.

It's a pity that reality always likes to see people disappointed or even desperate.

It wasn't until the early morning of the fifth day that Aslan came back with the Melo army, which had suffered heavy losses, along with several large carriages. The soldiers who should have been desperate and sad all had red faces and kept laughing.

Seeing this scene, Najie couldn't help but thump in his heart, and a surge of anger kept pouring into his heart.

"It's not fair! Why is Aslan's life so good, and the goddess of fate favors him so much?"

Najie was shouting in his heart, and secretly made up his mind that he must sneak into the Santo's Mansion tonight to see what Aslan unearthed from the ancient ruins.

In the middle of the night, the moon is dark and the wind is high, because the moon is almost hidden behind the clouds, which plunges the quiet town of Melo into terrifying gloom and darkness.

In the dead of night, a man in night clothes quickly moved towards the City Lord's Mansion.

The soldiers of the city guards easily avoided the patrolling city guards, quickly touched the city lord's mansion, and climbed up to the balcony on the second floor with ease.

Inside the City Lord's Mansion, Najie's pupils shrank slightly. The original simple City Lord's Mansion has become luxurious and impetuous, but the more so, the more Najie's breathing became short of breath.

How rich is the City Lord's Mansion today?

Najie couldn't see it either, the only thing he could be sure of was that he was rich enough to persuade the boss to do it.

Relying on his previous memories of the City Lord's Mansion, Najie quickly touched the door of Aslan's room.

He listened to the door, and probably listened to the movement in the room. After confirming that there was someone inside, he decisively jumped over from another balcony next to it.

Looking in through the gap, I happened to see that Aslan was tinkering with something with some huge balls.

Suddenly the huge ball lit up, and the light illuminated the entire room, which was much brighter than ordinary candles and oil lamps.

Najie subconsciously covered his mouth, and he could even feel a hint of warmth in the light.

"This is definitely an ancient magic item."

Najie had just had this idea when a sharp and piercing voice sounded.

Whoosh!

Najie immediately knew what had happened, and was sniped.

puff!

Naj dodged one of the bolts, and another had already landed on his right shoulder.

"who?"

An angry voice sounded, and the originally bright room went dark instantly.

Without looking back, Najie jumped directly to the balcony next to him, ran into another room, and jumped out to another balcony.

"There are assassins!"

The patrolling soldiers on the other side saw the figure jumping down from the balcony and shouted as they chased it.

All of a sudden, the lights of every house in the entire town of Melo began to light up, especially when it was heard that an assassin entered the city lord's mansion to assassinate Aslan.

Many men from the public took out hoes and sticks and came out of the house.

Even some slow-moving men were pushed out by the women at home.

"You don't want to go home until you catch the damn assassin who assassinated the lord."
