What Xiao Chen tore opens was the directional teleportation scroll, and the landing point of the teleportation was set in an abandoned yard by him.

The owner here probably escaped from the city earlier, but the house was too small and too sidelined and was not requisitioned by the Marquis. Therefore, Xiao Chen was selected on the way to the bell tower as a hidden point in the planned retreat plan.

Xiao Chen and Master Kona hid in the room. Xiao Chen sat at the table with gasps and took out a bottle of water from the traveler’s heart to drink it. The battle just now consumed too much energy and physical strength.

Xiao Chen said, “Those imperialists must have sent people to infiltrate the kingdom early, and then convinced Baldini to prepare to control Suero in advance.”

Master Kona sat beside him and said, “Baldini was probably disappointed with the royal family. The appearance of the imperialists may be very suitable for him.”

Xiao Chen said, “The empires have a very big appetite. They actually skipped the Black Mu Pass and came to fight Suero directly. It seems that we have no chance at Baldini. We must destroy the city defense barrier as soon as possible and send the news out.”

Master Kona said, “Those people should be Black Guards.”

“Black Guards?”

Master Kona said, “Emperor Alfred of the Purple Eagle Empire recruited a group of masters from various countries a few years ago. When he recruited people, he only asked about his ability, not morality, and he could join this team no matter what bad things he had done before. Even many serious criminals in the empire were caught out by him and received them under his command. He signed a contract with these people. As long as they served him for ten years, the empire could provide these people with a new aristocratic identity. This is the Black Guard, who specializes in solving some dangerous and unpredictable things for the emperor. According to our news, they even assassinated the elders who opposed the emperor in the empire’s Senate.”

Xiao Chen asked, “That’s similar to those of the Shadow Group of the Natural Temple?”

“It’s different. The Black Guard has a larger number of people and will fight on the battlefield. Unlike the people in the Shadow Group, the Black Guards are mainly doing some secret work. When the Empire fought against the Orc Tribe a few years ago, the Black Guards were also a vanguard who attacked the Orcs’ strongholds. These people were originally outlaws, and they were much more crazy than ordinary troops.”

“So, these fifty or so people may become a problem for us to attack Suero this time?” Xiao Chen thought for a moment, then laughed, “But I’m thinking about how to rely on us to deal with the Black Guards. Are you too arrogant?”

“For magicians, there is no impossible. As long as the conditions are met, there is nothing that cannot be done. After all, magicians are a group of people who aim to kill God.” Master Kona’s words always reveal the usual confidence of magicians.

Xiao Chen smiled and shook his head and said, “After all, this is a war, and it is enough to embellish personal heroism. I should believe my companions, their power is the most powerful. Black Guard is also good, the Imperial Army is the end of the day when everyone faces it together. “

“Then I will return to the meditation world first, and then summon me when you need it. “As he said that, Master Kona’s body gradually faded, and his clothes and equipment were taken into the heart of the traveler by Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen rested for a while, recovered some of his mental power, and was about to go to the cemetery to pick up Tasia and the others, but as soon as he walked out the door, he felt a magic fluctuation in all directions. This magic fluctuation was grand and profound, and it also carried some ancient aura. The endless aura that enveloped the world and was not something that could be cast by one person
