1217 Promise

The wizard tower owned by Veronica is not one of the sixteen wizard towers that make up the entire high tower land, but a wizard tower built by the Hamilton family more than three hundred years ago in a valley far away from the core area in the northeast.

This small wizard tower, which is 100 meters high and only more than 30 meters in diameter, is located in the center of the beautiful valley, but its defense is quite weak.

But Veronica, who has been promoted to the fifth-level wizard realm, is not worried about being watched by some people with ulterior motives. This is not only because of her own strength, but in Raymond's guess, the key is because of her grandfather, Deputy Speaker Belozov, and his uncle Donald.

Deputy Speaker Belozov is one of the strongest people in the entire high tower land, and his uncle Donald is the commander of the Falcon Corps. Although his strength is only at the initial level of the fifth level, his potential power cannot be underestimated.

Raymond, who had been waiting in this tower for more than two months, learned from the information collected by Gavin and his disciple Stevic that there were supposedly disagreements within the Hamilton family, but before the Supreme Council was about to launch the action plan, these conflicts within the family were suppressed by the patriarch Belozovo, making the Hamilton family still as strong and united as before in the eyes of outsiders.

But whether it was Stevic or his mentor Gavin, when someone began to inquire about the Hamilton family, this seemingly calm and gentle family immediately showed its claws, opened its eyes and began to track the traces of the peepers.

Gavin, who served in the Supreme Council, noticed something, and Stevic, who was young and observant, found that something was wrong before his mentor noticed it.

The information transmission channel that had just been established by the master and apprentice had several peripheral members removed overnight, which made Gavin very panic and uneasy. He appeared in the suite of the February Flower Hotel with Stevic to seek Raymond's help.

On a diagram hung on the wall, hundreds of names were connected by straight lines according to their relationships. From top to bottom, they were divided into six levels. The top one on the left was Gavin, and the one on the right was Stewich.

Standing next to the diagram, Stewich was still calm. After he circled the names at the bottom with a red pen, he turned to Raymond and said, "Respected Lord Raymond, this is the information transmission channel I have established. The names that have been crossed out have disappeared or cannot be contacted..."

As Stewich explained, Gavin, who was sitting on the side with a pale face and looked like he was in great trouble, spoke to Raymond before he finished speaking. "Sir, what can we do! What can we do! If they find out that our master and apprentice are spying, they will definitely send someone to capture us immediately..."

Raymond, whose eyes were fixed on these names. Looking at the names on the diagram that looked like single-line connections, he asked softly after a moment. "Stewich. If we cut off the contacts on the fifth floor, can we stop the pursuit?"

"In theory, it is possible, but these people are idlers wandering around the tower, low-level wizard apprentices or beastmasters. Their sudden disappearance can still expose the people on the upper floor."

Gavin, whose pupils shrank sharply, was even more shocked when he heard this, while Raymond, who quickly judged the pros and cons, frowned and asked. "If we also cut off the fourth floor, can we have more time?"

Stewich turned his eyes to the schematic diagram. His face turned a little pale, and he thought for a moment before he said hesitantly. "It should be possible, but it will only delay for another half a month at most. There are still various connections between these people. There is no way to guarantee that it will be safe after cutting off two layers..."

Stewich stopped talking here, looking a little hesitant and distressed, and Raymond stopped Gavin who wanted to interrupt, and waited patiently.

After a moment, Stevic raised his head again, with a hint of regret in his eyes, but his tone returned to his usual calm. "If the third layer can be cut off, then they should not be able to continue to investigate for a long time, but the pensions they need to pay will be quite high..."

Raymond nodded in agreement, and then he wiped his palm on the table in front of him, and dozens of large-denomination magic crystal cards appeared there. "Go and do it. If you ensure safety, you may as well pay more pensions."

Stevitch nodded and stopped talking. After silently burning the schematic diagram hanging on the wall, he came over to collect all the magic crystal cards and retreated behind Gavin.

Gavin, who could finally breathe a sigh of relief, was relieved. After repeatedly apologizing to Raymond, he scolded Stevic for being careless, but finally took out a palm-sized, very exquisite card from his waist bag and handed it over. "Lord Raymond, the Milia family has discovered the existence of my cousin, Ke Lide. This is the duel invitation card they sent..."

Carefully handed the card to Raymond, who took it and opened it, feeling a little strange.

It had the time, place, duel method, and even the queue of participants, but the back of each queue was blank, as if waiting to be filled in.

Flipping the card over, there was only a seal like a family emblem on the back, but no other text.

Seeing Raymond's puzzled eyes, Gavin, who suddenly realized, apologized again, and then explained carefully. "The content of this duel invitation card can be filled out by my cousin Ke Lide, but the time cannot exceed one week at most, otherwise it will be regarded as contempt for the inviter, and it will become a situation of no end..."

Gavin explained the custom of "duel" in the tower in detail, and then cast his expectant eyes over. There was undisguised uneasiness and nervousness on his old face, and his hands on his knees were shaking uncontrollably.

Raymond, who understood the duel style and etiquette here, was speechless about the "rules" he had just heard.

Duel, he had already known something about it before, but after Gavin explained the detailed rules, there were only two words left in his mind: absurd!

It was simply incomparable absurdity.

Although the duels of ancient wizards are divided into "hand talk" and "magic fight", they all contain great risks without exception.

However, the duel method currently popular in the High Tower Land has abandoned the bloody and cruel methods used by ancient wizards, and has made the "magic fight" involving life and death become gentle and elegant.

"Since the time is only one week at most, if I participate on behalf of Coli, can I solve the Miria family's pursuit of him once and for all after winning?"

Gavin, who was very surprised, immediately stood up and saluted Raymond, and his voice became trembling. "If you are willing to come forward to participate on behalf of Coli, there must be no problem!"

"Then set the time to the last day of this week. If Veronica still hasn't shown up by then, I will accompany Coli to fight."

After saying that, Raymond spoke to Stewich who was standing aside. "You can go and deal with it first, no need to wait here."

Stevitch, still calm, bowed to Raymond and his mentor Gavin, and then quickly left the suite.

Gavin, who was extremely excited, immediately called his cousin Collider, who was hiding in the lower room of the hotel, and asked him to fill out the duel invitation card sent by the Milia family on the spot, and then dragged his cousin Collider out of the room with excitement and excitement.

But Raymond, who was sitting on the sofa, felt very bored with such a "duel". When the night fell and the dinner was just delivered to him, Stevitch reported the result through magic.

The twenty-seven people on the three levels will never be able to speak again... (To be continued...)
