Chapter 255 Letters and Watching the Game

Lu He picked up the first letter, opened it and pulled out the letter paper.

This is a letter from the capital of the Crescent Empire. There is only a short line of words on the white paper.

"Sauron Soros, you left Highland City without permission and violated the ban of the Noble Council. Please return immediately and go to the Noble Council of the capital to explain the situation to the members!"

The date on the lower right corner of the letter paper is more than two months ago.

There is a pattern printed on it, which is golden all over. The whole is a perfect equilateral triangle, as if two golden clover petals are stacked together, with black stamens in the center, giving people a sense of exquisite symmetry.

This is the symbol of the Noble Council.

Lu He threw it into the trash can and opened the second letter.

"Sauron Soros, you have once again wantonly slaughtered the nobles of the empire and committed an unforgivable crime. Now I order you to go to the Xiangmu City Security Bureau immediately to accept the investigation of the sheriff."

Lu He laughed dumbly, threw it into the trash can again, and opened the third letter. There were only five words on it.

"Sauron, you're great!"

The font is very neat, and each stroke is straight and upright.

It seems to be engraved by a machine, giving people a very stereotyped feeling.

And the pen tip is extremely sharp, like a long sword with a sharp cold light forming these five words.

Yue Ling just took a sneak peek at the side, and suddenly felt a kind of heart-pounding feeling. The biting coldness on the font made her subconsciously close her eyes and dared not look again.

The signature is Hoshiman Bonsel.

It was the speaker who forced him to leave his hometown and flee here in a panic.

Lu He sneered, and did not throw it into the trash can, but gently rubbed it with his right thumb and index finger.

Directly crumpled the letter paper into countless white powder.

There is also a fourth letter, the date is a few days ago, and the surface of the envelope is a blond knight holding a knight's sword.

This is the symbol of the royal family of the Crescent Empire.

"Count Sauron, congratulations on your promotion to the Sky Knight and reviving the glory of the Soros family at its peak..."

The signature is the old emperor Kells.

This was his handwritten letter, which filled two pages with dense writing. Lu He didn't have the patience to read it, so he just glanced at it.

The general idea was to congratulate him on his promotion to Sky Knight, and then recounted the glorious deeds of the Soros family throughout the ages, as well as the friendly relationship between the family and the royal family, various praises, etc.

Then he also specifically stated that the ban and notice letter of the Noble Council had nothing to do with him.

It was issued by Vice Speaker Vince Bainok and all the major parliamentarians, and he even expressed his opposition.

Finally, he invited Lu He to attend the sixteenth birthday party he was about to hold for the twelfth princess Yulia.

Lu He smiled and threw it into the trash can as well.

The second pile was letters from Highland City, all from Butler Jose, and he casually read a few of them.

It was mainly to report on the operation of various industries of the Soros family and the big and small things in the manor.

He also said that the Noble Council had sent two waves of people to the Soros family's manor, and he sent them away.

The last two letters were sent after he learned that he had been promoted to a sky knight. The handwriting was crooked and there were pauses everywhere, which showed the excitement of the old housekeeper when he wrote the letters.

This time he didn't throw them into the trash can.

The third pile was written by Frye.

He reported to him the collection of various resources and the progress of the construction of the wizard tower.

He also mentioned the law enforcers of the noble council. He beat up the first wave of them and drove them away.

Frye killed a few of the second wave of people because they were disrespectful to him, and the rest were imprisoned in the barracks.

Lu He focused on Frye's report.

He was most concerned about the collection of various cultivation resources and the construction of the wizard tower, and he didn't care about other things.

Frye is currently doing well in these two aspects.

Especially resource collection.

Frye said that he was going to come to the Dawn Forest in person to integrate the warriors of the half-elf and werewolf tribes, as well as some knights who defected to the Soros family, and re-establish the collection team.

The construction of the wizard tower was very slow, mainly because Lu He's requirements were very high and it consumed a lot of manpower and material resources.

"Yueling, write back to Butler Jose and Fry to explain the current situation."

"Prepare dinner, prepare more high-energy and high-protein meat, and call me when it's ready."

Lu He thought for a while, stood up and ordered.

It took more than two hours to chat and fight with Anis. It was already afternoon, almost midnight.

Then he walked to the laboratory.

...

At night.

The moon was bright and the stars were sparse. The thick moonlight penetrated the leaves and fell obliquely on the lake, the grass, and the villa, forming strange and pale white spots.

On the black lakeside shrouded in mist, Pavis walked along the brown path by the lake towards the white villa.

He looked tired and wore a black heavy armor. The heavy armor was tattered and covered with scratches. There were several marks that completely penetrated the armor and were stained with coagulated brown blood.

He held a bloody long sword in his hand.

He was followed by a group of people, both men and women, some wearing leather armor or iron armor, which were also stained with blood.

After entering the gate of the villa, Pavis stopped in front of the garden fence and turned to look at the people behind him.

"I will report the mission to Lord Sauron. You wait here first." He said lightly.

After that, he ignored the uneasy people, stuck the long sword in his hand into the ground, and tidied his appearance a little.

He walked towards the building in the garden with courage.

All the curtains in the hall were drawn, but the huge crystal chandelier illuminated it as if it was daytime.

A figure that made Pavis feel frightened and nervous sat on the sofa on the right side of the hall, holding a cup of hot drink in his hand and sipping it.

"Lord Sauron, most of the things you told me have been basically solved, but there are more than a dozen direct descendants of Pato who are protected by the alliance, including four knights."

Pavis bowed respectfully and reported in a low voice.

He was very uneasy because these people were direct descendants of the Pato family. He tried to lead people to attack several people who were protected by the alliance army in the barracks, but unfortunately returned without success.

Of course, the army did not hurt them, but just blocked them.

"Go again and ask them to hand over the people, and say that I said it."

Lu He put down the wine glass and said calmly.

"Yes, Lord Sauron!" Pavis nodded, hesitated for a moment, and continued.

"Lord, there are family knights of the Pato family outside, they want to join you..."

"Let the knights come in."

Pavis nodded quickly.

He turned and came to the garden fence outside the hall, glanced at everyone, and said lightly:

"Ivan, Lynn, you two come with me to meet Lord Sauron, the rest of you wait first."

A man and a woman stood out from the crowd.

The man had a small mustache on his chin, wore silver chain mail, and had a layer of blood-stained white cloth wrapped around his head.

Next to him was a blonde woman with a ponytail wearing brown leather armor. The woman's face was a little pale, and she held the hilt of the cross sword at her waist, seeming a little nervous.

The two walked into the hall under the leadership of Pavis.

The bright hall was a little dazzling.

After Lynn's eyes went through an instant adaptation period, she gradually saw the figure sitting on the sofa.

Dark red short hair, ordinary face with a hint of demonic temperament, scarlet eyes like a slowly rotating bottomless vortex, fair skin, and slender figure.

Wearing a black robe, with a circle of silver edges at the hem of the robe, it looked luxurious but not ostentatious.

The man raised his face and looked over. A golden flame flickered faintly between his eyebrows, giving people an inhuman feeling.

"Lord Sauron." Ivan and Lynn stepped forward and bowed.

"You are able to abandon darkness and join the light, which is very good." Lu He stood up and glanced at the two of them lightly.

"Thank you, sir, for accepting us." Ivan breathed a sigh of relief. Before he came, he was still worried that Sauron would look down on their betrayal of the Pato family.

"Then... from now on, your lives belong to me." Lu He smiled slightly.

In the surprised eyes of the two, he stretched out his right hand and pointed his index finger at Lynn's forehead.

Swish!

A twisted black snake mark with a coiled tail suddenly appeared slowly between Lynn's eyebrows.

This black snake mark belongs to a special type of curse secret method, called the blood curse secret method mark, which is cast with his own blood as the casting material.

Therefore, the effect of the curse when it occurs also carries the characteristics of his blood, that is, absorbing the vitality in the blood of the object.

He has many ways to control the life and death of others. For example, he used the Undead Curse to control Pavis, and the Soul Curse to control the Family Knights.

There are two purposes for doing this.

The main purpose is diversity, to prevent others from breaking his curse. Although the possibility is very low, it must be prevented. He doesn't believe that anyone can break it with multiple curse controls.

The other is to practice curse spells by the way.

Lynn felt the abnormality between her eyebrows and unconsciously reached out and touched it.

"I am very happy that you betrayed Pato." Seeing that she seemed a little uneasy, Lu He explained calmly.

"But if you betray me in the future, I will definitely be very sad, so in order not to be sad, I have to do this. You should understand me, right?"

"My lord, we dare not."

The two, including Pavis, were immediately terrified.

Lu He smiled, and he reached out again, planted the blood curse secret mark on Ivan's forehead, and then lifted the three-day time limit of the curse on Pavis.

Pavis completed the task well, although there was still a little tail left to clean up, but that was not his problem.

"Okay, go and complete the remaining tasks. Let Comanche take you this time. I want to be alive."

There are still four knights left. Although Pavis is at the peak of the knight level, it is still a bit difficult to capture all of them alive. However, with Comanche's cooperation, there will be no problem.

Comanche?

Pavis was slightly startled, and suddenly his eyes narrowed and looked in the direction where Lu He was looking.

Outside the dark hall, a slender figure slowly walked out of the shadows.

This man was slender and light-footed. He wore a slender silver scimitar on his waist.

His eyes were like green amber. When Pavis was swept by these eyes, his skin suddenly tightened and swollen, as if he was stared at by a lurking venomous snake, and his heart was terrified.

A trace of deep fear flashed in Pavis' eyes.

Lu He smiled, and after a few casual instructions, he picked up the wine glass on the table and left.

He smelled the aroma of barbecue.

…………

The next day.

The warm golden sunlight shone in through the window. It fell on his bedside.

Lu He frowned.

After lying in bed for three seconds, he put on his pajamas and got up. He walked to the window and looked down.

It was early morning.

The green lake was like a piece of emerald, reflecting the white clouds in the sky and the rows of trees by the lake like a mirror. A group of white birds stopped by the lake, lowering their heads to drink water.

There are clusters of small red and white flowers blooming on the shore, and there are faint waves of fresh floral fragrance.

He stayed up late again yesterday studying and doing experiments.

Heaving a sigh of relief, Lu He rubbed his stiff face, walked out of the bedroom and walked down the stairs.

Standing on the stairs, he saw Yue Ling who was busy preparing breakfast in the hall.

She was wearing a white dress, and her well-proportioned and slender figure was faintly highlighted under the tight-fitting dress.

"Lu He, hurry up and have breakfast." Yue Ling urged after seeing him, "The strength competition will start soon."

"Strength competition?" Lu He was slightly startled, remembering what kind of competition this was.

This is what Anis said before she left yesterday.

She invited the final game of the Academy Knight Trial of the White Phoenix City-State Alliance to be held in Rainbow City.

The reason for this is to ease the awkward relationship with the White Phoenix City-State Alliance.

Because of Lu He's mouth, she was also forced to get involved in Pato's matter.

And it plays a very important role in the mouths of people who don't know the truth.

Rainbow City borders the White Phoenix City-State Alliance. In order not to affect their relationship, she took the initiative to show goodwill and invited Lu He and Gustavo, another heavenly knight from the alliance.

Lu He was in a good mood at that time and readily agreed.

And now he regrets it and doesn't want to go.

However, Yue Ling wanted to go. At her urging, Lu He hurriedly finished his breakfast and was "forced" to change into a slim knight's uniform with white gold trim under her service.

Out the door.

In front of the tree-lined road by the lake, a beautiful white carriage was parked quietly outside the fence.

The driver was a short and stocky knight, still a knight. He looked sideways at the villa, as if he had been waiting for a while, but he didn't look impatient at all.

"Lord Sauron, good morning." Artu immediately stepped forward to salute after seeing Lu He.

Lu He nodded.

After taking a look at him, he recognized that this knight was a knight loyal to Annes. He was watching at the south gate when Pato was killed.

When Atu saw Lu He get into the car, he suddenly felt relieved that he had been thinking about it.

He waited here for a long time, worried that Master Sauron would not come out, but he did not dare to go in and urge him.

The wheels turned and made a slight friction sound, and the carriage drove slowly along the tree-lined road by the lake towards Rainbow City.

Ten minutes later, the carriage entered the east gate.

The black armored soldiers guarding the city yawned and dozed against the city gate.

He glanced at the carriage and immediately stood up straight, watching the carriage enter Rainbow City with reverence.

Because the car body is engraved with a ring-like pattern, which is the symbol of Lady Annes of Rainbow City.

Inside the carriage, Yue Ling fiddled with her messy hair and looked out of the carriage window.

From time to time, mercenaries carrying giant swords and long bows passed by the car, and occasionally some caravans could be seen.

These people were in small groups.

Some loudly showed off their glorious achievements, while others wore hoods and lowered their heads to try not to attract attention.

Walked for a few more minutes.

Entering a wide and huge white stone square, the square was filled with patrolling teams of white-armored guards, armed with spear-like weapons, fully armed and lined up neatly.

In the middle of the square, a square high platform was built, above which a male and a female young student were colliding crazily.

The female knight drew her sword extremely fast, but the male knight fell into a state of decline. From time to time, he tried to retreat and pull away, but was always interrupted by the female knight's sword.

The high platform was surrounded by a circle of black-armored guards and filled with people wearing various gorgeous costumes.

On another platform parallel to the high platform, Anis and two other men were clustered in the middle.
