Chapter 277: Laying Down the Magic Circle
Su Chen and the others fled back to their temporary residence.
And the person who saved them followed closely.
Lan Huai.
The people of the Holy Light Empire also guessed that it was him.
Only he could save them from Lu Ye.
When they saw that person, Zhou Wuyuan and others immediately knelt down: "Meet General Lan Huai."
Su Chen looked at Lan Huai's appearance, and he also guessed it.
"Get up, tomorrow is the time for the big show to start!" Lan Huai said calmly.
"Have the magic circles been set up?" Lan Huai asked.
Zhou Wuyuan then reported everything to Lan Huai.
Lan Huai turned around and saw Su Chen and Xiao Ningxue.
"Is she the saint that the son of the Holy Light Empire wants to marry?"
"With such beauty, no wonder even their son is tempted."
Xiao Ningxue saw Lan Huai praising herself and responded with a slight smile.
"Since everything is done, let's wait for the big show to start." Lan Huai narrowed his eyes, and everything was ready.
But Su Chen was still confused.
"You are not in charge of the overall situation outside the city, isn't it dangerous to come in directly?" Su Chen actually didn't want to be involved in the chaos of these empires.
But now that he has been involved, he still has to ask for more information.
"Things outside have been arranged. If I hadn't come in, wouldn't you be in danger?" Lan Huai chuckled.
Then he slowly sat in the main seat and asked Su Chen: "Aren't you going to the pterosaur nest to cause a riot?"
"Have you done it?"
Su Chen shook his head: "No."
Lan Huai was surprised: "Huh? Can't handle it?"
Su Chen spread his hands: "Can't get in."
Lan Huai nodded. Su Chen was just an outsider, and he would not force Su Chen to do anything.
The pterosaur nest riot was the icing on the cake. Even if there was no riot, it would be fine. Anyway, what they had to do had been done.
"Actually, I have a doubt. Wouldn't they know about the magic circle set up in the Holy See Hall?"
"Before the wedding, they should search it, right?"
Lan Huai smiled: "They can't find it out. This is the magic circle of the ninth-level mage."
"Even if the pillar of the Holy Light Empire, who is also the ninth level, appears, he can't see anything unusual."
"The magic circle of the ninth-level mage?" Su Chen was surprised.
"You mean..."
Lan Huai nodded: "Without his permission, do you think we really dare to do it?"
"This time, not only will the Holy Light Empire change, but the Wind and Frost Empire will also change."
"But you are an outsider, why do you ask so many questions?"
Su Chen shrugged: "I'm already involved, it's better to ask clearly."
Lan Huai pursed his lips to indicate that it doesn't matter.
Anyway, it's useless for Su Chen to know tomorrow, because tomorrow is the beginning of the turmoil.
The Wind and Frost Empire will rebel and they will take power again.
And the war against the Holy Light Empire will continue. They will devour the entire Holy Light Empire and then slowly occupy everything.
For Su Chen, an outsider, the changes in this area have nothing to do with them.
Su Chen also thinks so.
And he is more concerned about Xiao Ningxue.
There is also Xu Yongyuan who they just rescued.
"Brother Xu, how are you?"
"Were you injured just now?" Su Chen looked at Xu Yongyuan.
Xu Yongyuan said nothing, just sat there blankly.
"What happened to him? Why did you go to save him?" Lan Huai was also curious. After entering the city, he explored Zhou Wuyuan's traces all the way.
He found that they were still in the palace, so he rescued them.
Later, he found that they were actually trying to save an ordinary person, and then he was surprised.
"We lived in his house before, and he was implicated by us, so we took action." Zhou Wuyuan explained.
"But we rescued him, but we couldn't save his relatives."
Lan Huai raised his eyebrows and then nodded.
In this war, losing relatives is normal.
Lan Huai did not have any emotional fluctuations, but he also understood Xu Yongyuan's feelings.
"Let him stay alone for a while."
"If the war doesn't stop and the traditional nobles are not killed, there will never be peace in this world."
Lan Huai slowly brewed tea, not caring about this matter.
Xu Yongyuan stared at Lan Huai.
What can people like him change in such a war?
"I can take you into the pterosaur's nest." Suddenly, Xu Yongyuan spoke.
Everyone was surprised.
Lan Huai's hand that raised the teacup also stopped halfway: "Hmm? Interesting."
"Is he the winged cavalry you mentioned?"
Su Chen nodded.
Lan Huai continued to drink tea, and then said:
"You are an ordinary person, can you take us into the pterosaur's nest?"
Lan Huai still didn't believe it. In fact, he didn't think Su Chen could do it at the beginning.
Su Chen looked at Xu Yongyuan in surprise: "Can you really do it?"
Xu Yongyuan nodded.
"I know all the secret passages in the pterosaur's nest."
"But I have to go back."
"Back there?" Su Chen asked, "The pterosaur's nest?"
Xu Yongyuan shook his head, "Back to my previous home."
"Is there something that can take you into the pterosaur's nest?"
Lan Huai was also stunned: "You really can do it?"
"You don't want to take us in and get caught by the people of the Holy Light Empire."
Lan Huai's words immediately aroused suspicion from others.
But Su Chen didn't think so: "We saved him, why did he take us to be caught?"
Lan Huai laughed: "So what if you saved him?"
"You are the one who implicated his relatives."
"Do you think the death of his relatives has nothing to do with you? Maybe not, but how do you know what he thinks?"
Lan Huai's careless expression has already shown that he doesn't believe Xu Yongyuan.
As a veteran who has experienced various wars on the battlefield, he has already figured out the minds of these ordinary people.
They never realize that there is no escape in war.
As long as the war starts, there is only life and death between the two sides.
What about the death of relatives? Lan Huai has experienced countless betrayals and watched his subordinates' relatives being killed many times.
Watching the crazy revenge of those ordinary people after being implicated.
He can understand the thoughts of those people, but he will also order them to be executed.
If Lan Huai was there before, he would never let Su Chen and others go to rescue Xu Yongyuan.
Xu Yongyuan stared at Lan Huai, and he could actually understand Lan Huai's doubts, and then nodded.
"I know you don't believe me, but please help me and take something out of my house."
"I can draw the blueprint for you, and you can just go in by yourself."
Su Chen nodded directly. In fact, he still felt a little guilty towards Xu Yongyuan. After all, the incident was indeed caused by him. As long as he could do it, he would try his best to do it for Xu Yongyuan.
"What is it? Where is it? I will help you get it."
It is not wise to return to Xu Yongyuan's home at this time.
But Lan Huai did not speak. He actually wanted to attack the pterosaur's nest, but he felt that he could not do it. But maybe there really is a miracle, right?
Xu Yongyuan slowly said: "A stone."
