Chapter 391: Escaping to Life

The intense battle destroyed several buildings in Heimang Castle, and scattered rubble and wood fragments were strewn all over the ground.

However, no one had the heart to pay attention to the damage to the buildings now; under Nigen's summons, all members of the Knight Order stationed around the castle dispersed in every direction, attempting to find this escaped Magician.

One hour, two hours, until the sun set, they had gained nothing.

Crack!

The crystal cup was thrown heavily to the ground, shattering into pieces.

Aosen was so angry that his beard and hair stood on end, "This Milosilafu actually kept an ace up his sleeve; he actually mastered Earth-Walking Technique, which is so difficult to learn!"

Sneaking underground, ordinary means really have no way to deal with it, and even the difficulty of capturing the direction he is moving in is extremely high.

"It is just a pity that the Divine Envoy is not here; otherwise, with his perception ability, he would definitely have been able to sense the direction the moment the opponent escaped."

As long as the direction of escape is determined, Heishang can purposefully destroy the ground to force the opponent out from within the earth.

Even if that cannot be done, it can also narrow the scope for the subsequent search.

Now, this method of searching for one person across the whole city, thinking about it, is also unlikely to be effective.

After all, Heimang City is too big, and the people of the Knight Order are spread out, which is somewhat like trying to put out a cartload of burning firewood with a single cup of water.

"Since there is no way to find him, we must think carefully about how to deal with the situation ahead."

Milosilafu's status is not low; he is not only on good terms with many nobles and organizational forces, but he is also an honorary vassal of Wushan Castle himself, and furthermore the dean of Wushan Extraordinary Academy, and the number of students he has brought up is by no means small.

Aosen and Heishang failed to kill the opponent even by joining forces, and instead let the opponent run away; then they will inevitably have to bear the wrath of Milosilafu next.

And this is precisely the problem that troubles Blackie.

According to Mofisite's plan, besides Moonlight Valley, they also prepared to use Haide Bojueling as a second base, while infiltrating major forces, while silently accumulating strength.

Milosilafu's escape will definitely spread the situation inside Heimang Castle.

Aosen's recovery and Blackie's existence will both be exposed, and even whether this base of Black Python City can continue to exist is a question.

"Send a message to the Divine Envoy; things here have been botched, and we need to invite him over to make the decision."

Aosen gave a grunt; although he was transformed, he retained his original memories, and the current him is like someone who has abandoned his first personality and activated a second personality.

"I know what you are worried about, but you can rest assured; Wushan Castle does not have the ability to launch an attack on us."

Aosen understands Lulansi and the overall situation of Wushan Territory very thoroughly.

He gave a cold laugh, "If Lulansi really pulls all his Knight Orders over to fight me to the death, that will only make the Wushan Family lose their ruling power over this land even faster."

Aosen raised two Knight Orders, and if he forced it, he could scrape together three.

If Wushan Castle wants to wipe him out, even if they could win in the end, they would definitely suffer heavy losses.

By then, when the Bolante Bandit Group or the Black Gold Brotherhood makes a comeback, what will Wushan Castle have to deal with them?

"I hope your guess is correct."

The Blackie Knight nodded; not having a war, but solving this problem through negotiation, that would be for the best.

"If we really negotiate, let's see if we can get Lulansi to come forward and give us a chance to pull him into our camp as well. If we can succeed, Wushan Territory will be ours!"

The reason they came to Heimang City in the first place was that they learned of Aosen's physical condition from Hesusu.

Based on Hesusu's description, Mofisite guessed that the power plaguing Lulansi and Aosen was the purest Witch Soul power, so they came over.

Mofisite did not know where such pure Witch Soul power came from, but by letting the Witch Soul Bead combine with the Witch Soul power in Aosen's body, he very easily completed the transformation of the latter.

Aosen's situation could be completely analogized to Lulansi.

This old Marquis has been tortured for decades, so there must be more Witch Soul power in his body, and Mofisite would definitely find it even more convenient to transform him.

Back then, after they finished dealing with Aosen, they wanted to have Aosen send a Visit Letter to Wushan Castle to find an opportunity to get close to Lulansi.

It was just that this proposal was rejected by Aosen.

On one hand, his heart is very small; he cannot let go of the hatred that Lulansi made him suffer so much torture.

So he does not want Lulansi to get rid of the pain so early; he hopes to see the other party continue to be tortured, and until the very end, he does not want Lulansi to be able to get rid of the trouble.

On the other hand, Wushan Castle is not that easy to enter.

Even if Lulansi's combat is restricted, the Magic Cannons, Mofajian, Knight Orders, and the number of high-level Knights there are all not few.

If they went over rashly, one moment of carelessness would erupt into a battle like today's; at that time, not only would Wushan Castle be gone, but if things went poorly, they would end up destroying themselves.

But now, in order to avoid greater trouble, it seems that pulling Lulansi into their own camp is not bad?

Aosen thought for a moment and said, "When Wushan Castle asks us about Milosilafu, I will see if I can find an opportunity to lure Lulansi out of Wushan Castle."

Blackie nodded in agreement, "That would be best!"

He added, "But before that, let's thoroughly search every corner of Heimang City. It is already very impressive that the opponent, a Magician, did not die after taking such a heavy sword strike from me; with such a heavy injury, it is impossible for him to escape Heimang City in one breath, and in all likelihood, he is hiding somewhere."

The facts were exactly so.

With the moon bright and stars sparse, in the grass of a barren hill in Heimang City, the panting Milosilafu was curled up resting.

He fled all the way here, the Magic Power in his body was exhausted, and a severe sense of fatigue constantly assaulted his nerves, wanting to make him fall into a drowsy sleep.

But he knew that now was not the time to sleep.

He needed to take advantage of the gap to meditate and refine Magic Power, while staying alert to his surroundings and taking measures in time.

If he could not help but fall asleep and could not wake up and was found, in his current state, he estimated that if a Silver Knight came, he would only be able to surrender.

"Fortunately I mastered Earth-Walking Technique, otherwise I would have been finished at Heimang Castle today."

He had lingering fears, and while rejoicing that he had escaped, he thought of the Guard Officer Bulefu, who was still in the opponent's hands with his life or death unknown.

This Golden Knight had followed him for many years, and the master-servant bond between the two was very deep.

As soon as Milosilafu thought that Bulefu might already be dead, the anger in his heart rose up.

"Cough!"

As the anger welled up, the injury on the old dean's chest began to tear with intense pain.

In order not to reveal any flaws, he could only endure with all his might, not letting the coughing continue.

"Aosen!"

He gritted his teeth and said, "This matter is not over!"

Milosilafu knew that Lulansi had already recovered, and his coming to Heimang Castle was an idea decided upon after consulting with him.

They wanted to make Aosen pay a huge sum to purchase Magic Potion, thereby disguisedly weakening the strength of Heimang Castle, but they did not expect that Aosen had actually also shaken off the erosion of the Soul Devouring Surge.

Lulansi had been tormented by the Soul Devouring Surge for decades and had only recently managed to find relief.

What did Aosen rely on to find relief?

Could it be that the person who helped Lulansi had turned around and helped Aosen as well?

The old dean shook his head; this matter was secondary.

He had been assassinated by the other party in Aosen's castle, and Lulansi would certainly step forward to uphold justice for him.

Moreover, the other party probably also happened to be lacking an excuse to discipline Heimang City, which was gradually drifting away from Wushan Castle? (End of chapter)
