A Wizard’s Secret

Chapter 327: Leaving (Part 2)

Merlin first briefly explained to Old Wilson. When Old Wilson heard that Merlin was going to the capital, he did not ask carefully, but told Merlin to pay attention to safety in the king. .

Afterwards, Merlin went to see Shirley and Avril again. The two were just over a month pregnant, and their stomachs didn't bulge, but they were usually very careful and wore loose clothes.

Unlike old Wilson, Avril was very unhappy when she heard that Merlin was leaving Castle Wilson again. She pouted and remained silent. And Shirley was also silent, maybe Merlin wouldn't be able to see the child born in their womb.

In this regard, Merlin was also very helpless, and could only reassure himself that he would return to Castle Wilson in a few months.

After comforting Avril and Shellis, Merlin called Master Bamu into the room alone and explained some matters to him carefully.

"Bamu, you don't have to go to the capital with me this time, you will sit in the Wilson Castle. Anyone who dares to threaten the Wilson family will be killed without mercy!"

There was a hint of coldness in Merlin's eyes. While Master Bamu was delighted, he couldn't help but feel a little stunned. It seemed that Merlin took the Wilson family very seriously and must ensure that the Wilson family was safe.

"Master, please rest assured, with me, the Wilson family will be fine."

Master Bamu also has absolute confidence in his strength.

"However, Master, Felinda's understanding of talismans is very good. With my superficial understanding of talismans, I'm afraid that it won't be long before I can teach her more talisman knowledge."

Master Bamu looked a little sad. The dignified seventh-level spellcaster couldn't teach a Felinda who was not even an entry-level spellcaster.

However, talisman, pharmacy, and alchemy are all comparable to spell construction, and ordinary spellcasters cannot understand it if they have not studied it carefully.

Merlin hadn't thought of this, after all, the talisman was very obscure and profound, and with Master Bamu alone, it was impossible to teach Felinda more knowledge.

It seems that the only way to exchange some talisman system knowledge from the Dark Spirit Realm and give it to Felinda to comprehend it is far better than the teaching of Master Bamu.

Thinking of the knowledge of exchanging the talisman, Merlin also thought of the children with the qualifications of spellcasters that the black-robed old man had found. In order to ensure that they would not betray the Wilson family, they had to use contract papers to restrain them.

It is still necessary to exchange some contract papers from the Dark Spirit Realm.

"I will take this matter to heart. After returning from the capital this time, I will go back to the Dark Spirit Realm to exchange some knowledge of Talismans."

Master Bamu nodded.

Merlin thought about it carefully, and there was nothing to explain. With Master Bamu sitting in the Wilson Castle, he was very relieved, so he went directly to the old snake's house.

"Mage Merlin, have you arranged everything?"

Elder Snake was ready, and behind him were two ugly mages, as well as the Hesper and Sacra mages sent by the eighth prince, and a group of five were waiting for Merlin.

Seeing that Elder Snake was ready, Merlin nodded and said, "It's all arranged, let's go now."

So, a group of six people got into three carriages and slowly left Pugas City.

*****

In the silent night, only the sound of "crackling" from the burning bonfire.

The night in Xia Yue was very cool. On a spacious rock field, several spellcasters were lying on the ground at will, enjoying this hard-won moment of tranquility.

"Old Snake, how far is it from the capital now?"

Merlin, leaning on a boulder, squinted his eyes and asked, he has been on the road with Old Snake and others for ten days in a row, but it seems that he is still far away from the capital.

Old Snake gently moved a few pieces of dry wood in the bonfire, and said slowly: "There are still about ten days to go, the capital is too far away from the city of Pugas, even if you travel day and night, It takes a long time."

In the past ten days, Merlin, She Lao and others have been on the road day and night. Today is considered to be a little rest for the night, and they have to continue their journey tomorrow.

Merlin glanced at Mage Heisberg and Mage Sakra. The two of them were very silent along the way. They didn't say a word. Only Old Snake answered Merlin's questions occasionally, and was also very silent.

However, Merlin wanted to know more about Hachioji's situation, so he had no choice but to talk side by side.

"Old Snake, there are many princes in the royal family, right?"

Old Snake glanced at Merlin, and the firelight reflected on Old Snake's face, especially the blue scales on his neck, which made Old Snake's appearance look a little grim.

But Old Snake still replied: "Although there are many princes in the royal family, only a few princes can compete for the throne, and His Royal Highness the Eighth Prince is one of the most competitive princes!"

Merlin has learned in the past few days that in the royal family of the Black Moon Kingdom, only the descendants of the royal family who have the qualifications to cast spells are eligible to inherit the throne.

When he becomes a king, he can only be a king for thirty years at most, and then he must abdicate. The elders in the royal family will select the best among the princes to become the new king.

The purpose of this is to keep power from corrupting, and the king will not become invincible because of too much concentration of power and resources.

You must know that the king of the Black Moon Kingdom is a powerful spellcaster himself, and he will be even more powerful if he holds infinite resources and rights. If he is not controlled and bound, even a powerful spellcaster may lose himself. Indulge in great power, leading to the downfall of the entire kingdom.

Therefore, there is a rule of changing the throne every thirty years.

As for the selection of the most outstanding princes from among the many princes, there is no fixed standard for the standard of excellence, but most of them are those princes who are powerful in their own right and who have a huge power in their hands, and will eventually inherit the throne.

And Hachioji is obviously competing for the throne, because it is less than five years before the current king abdicates. It is no wonder that the princes are all developing their powers madly. .

"Which princes are the eighth prince's most threatening competitors now?"

Merlin simply asked directly. He knew that the Eighth Prince must also have other princes who were very threatening. Otherwise, it would not have been possible to attach so much importance to Mage Leo and be so anxious to win over Mage Leo.

Even Merlin guessed that Hachioji's current situation is not very good, and by his side, there must be no spellcaster who can destroy everything and turn the tide! Hachioji faintly hopes that Mage Leo can become a powerful spellcaster by his side, who can turn the tide and destroy everything!

Elder Snake pondered for a while, then said in a low voice: "These questions, Master Merlin will naturally understand when he arrives in the capital, so there is nothing to hide. At present, there are only three princes who are the greatest threat to His Royal Highness the Eighth Prince, namely the fourth prince, the ninth prince and The Thirteenth Prince."

Merlin secretly kept all this information in his heart. After he went to the capital, this information might be of great use.

"call……".

A gust of cool wind blew away the bonfire, and some weeds on the ground made a "rustling" sound.

"Who?"

In the silent night, there was a sudden screeching sound. It was the voice of the old snake's two subordinates, the two ugly mages. They have been hiding in a hidden place tonight, always on guard.

Hearing the voice of the ugly mage, Old Snake and the others immediately became vigilant, and Merlin narrowed his eyes slightly, and his spiritual power was emitted silently.

"Bang Bang".

After two muffled noises, two corpses fell heavily in front of Merlin and the others. They were the two ugly subordinates of Snake Lao.

These two ugly mages had extremely surprised expressions on their faces, but the methods of death on their bodies were very simple. They were actually shattered by pure power, not by spells.

Merlin and others immediately became vigilant. The two ugly mages were not very powerful spellcasters. At best, they were only ** mages, but they were silently killed. It was too much to kill them just with their powerful strength. Incredible.

"Be careful, I don't know who it is."

Elder Snake immediately shouted loudly, reminding Merlin and the others, so the four of them immediately formed a circle, looking around vigilantly, their mental energy was always shrouded in the surroundings, and any movement could not escape the induction of several people. .

"rustle."

Another gust of breeze blew, and the branches and leaves on the tree swayed constantly, making bursts of soft noises.

At this moment, Merlin's eyes twitched, and he said solemnly, "Someone is here!"

"Whoosh whoosh".

Merlin's voice fell, and from the pitch-black night, four figures suddenly appeared. These four figures were three men and one woman. The three men were tall, with stern expressions, and they were wearing gray mage robes.

And the woman looks very strange, looks very immature, just like a little girl of eleven or twelve years old, she is also very petite, and she is also wearing a bright red tight leather jacket, looking very delicate and lovely , likable.

However, Merlin felt a strong sense of danger from this cute-looking little girl who was always smiling, especially the indifference that occasionally flashed in her eyes, which made Merlin very vigilant.

"Giggle, it's not easy to find you, I finally found you!"

In the hands of the cute little girl, there is actually a huge hammer that doesn't match her figure. It looks extremely funny. Looking at this hammer, Merlin glanced at the slightly sunken chests of the two ugly mages on the ground. , the mind instantly became clear.

"You killed them?"

Merlin narrowed his eyes slightly and asked in a calm tone.

"Swish".

The little girl's eyes instantly turned to Merlin.

"Giggle, I killed them. The two of them were so inexperienced that they would die if they touched it. It's boring!"

The little girl looked innocent and innocent. She pouted and tilted her head to look at Merlin. If it weren't for the fact that there were two corpses on the ground, no one would believe that this cute little girl in front of her would be so cruel and dangerous. (To be continued.)
