Chapter 601

"Again?"

At noon, in a circular open space in the palace courtyard, the grey pupil boy waving two short swords bit his lips and looked at the black haired wizard opposite from a distance.

The expressionless Loren's left and right Knights' swords were in front of him and nodded slightly.

Just a blink of an eye, the grey pupil boy has rushed to him!

As if in slow motion, the sharp sword tip in Lucian's hand continued to expand in the sight of the black haired wizard... Lauren tried his best to avoid the front blow of the other party. The long sword set up in his right hand made a loud impact, and the friction fire burst.

The black haired wizard took advantage of the situation to slide to the left. The dagger cut off the corner of his clothes, and the sharp blade of the other hand ran past his ear.

Instead of taking back his sword, the grey pupil boy like a cheetah opened his arms and swept forward; The black haired wizard who was forced to retreat had no way out.

There is no way back, you can only move forward!

Facing the two sharp blades coming from the front at the same time, Lucian did not retreat but entered. His retracted right hand held the falling sharp blade. At the same time, the short sword of his left hand took advantage of the weakness and stabbed Lauren who had nowhere to hide.

In an instant, Loren took his sword and slipped. Kaman escaped the direct stab in a millisecond. At the same time, he held the handle of the sword in his right hand and stabbed Lucian at the door!

At this moment, the grey pupil boy seemed to turn his left hand into a parry at will. At the same time, he blocked the right hand of the black haired wizard's sword edge and cut up along the sword ridge, easily dissolving Loren's attack.

"Dang -!"

The Four Swords intersected in pairs, and the striking sparks and strong wind blew by Loren's ear, which was only less than ten centimeters away from his neck and waist.

But it was just a deliberate slow beat by Lucian.

………………………………………………

He threw the double swords aside. The black haired wizard took up the water cup and handed another cup to the same panting Lucian in front of him. His eyes were still looking forward to: "how about it?"

"Much better than before, but there are still some problems."

"For example?" Lauren sat down directly and poured himself a glass of water.

"Many of your previous habits still haven't turned around." the gray pupil boy who drank it all at once breathed a sigh of relief, and his heart beat gradually stabilized: "double handed swordsmanship is different from using two swords at the same time, and the weapons of both hands are independent and United."

"To put it bluntly, it's not an attack or a parry, but both hands should be able to constantly change in parry and attack at the same time, and think separately - this is the advantage of two handed swordsmanship. Otherwise, wouldn't it be better to have a shield and a long sword?"

The dark haired wizard nodded thoughtfully.

"Besides... You seem to have a subconscious action."

"Subconscious?"

"Yes, you always avoid your weapons intentionally or unintentionally... More accurately, you never seem to let your blade close to you within ten centimeters."

Lucian frowned slightly: "this is actually not a good habit. Once it is found, it will be used by your opponent... And there is such a space, which will make it difficult for you to use it at the critical moment."

"Well... I'll try to pay attention."

Loren smiled bitterly and pulled the corners of his mouth... This "bad habit" was formed when Loren began to fight with "bright silver". After all, it was not a "knock" problem when he was hit by the sword of bright silver

The grey pupil boy tilted his mouth and shrugged. He didn't seem to expect anything.

"Why does Lord Loren want to learn two handed swordsmanship?"

"Huh?"

"Nothing, just curious." Lucian raised his eyebrows, with a trace of confusion in his clear eyes: "you are already a strong caster. This kind of swordsmanship of defeating the crowd with few and defeating the strong with the weak is not very helpful to you... What's the use even if you learn it?"

"Well... It should be another way of thinking." Loren thought seriously: "as you said, two handed fencing is not just a simple use of two swords, but a completely different way of fighting."

"As for whether it's useful... Who knows."

The confused grey pupil boy scratched his head and didn't understand the meaning of the black haired wizard, but he vaguely felt that it might have something to do with the so-called "heresy group".

In his impression, his loyal Loren Turin is an extremely introverted and cautious person; In most cases, it is calm. Only at the critical moment... Or when he is very uncertain... Will there be strong emotional fluctuations.

The night of the Plantagenet manor was exactly like this... Although the black haired wizard deliberately pretended to have a plain expression that was no big deal, the murderous and dignified eyes could not be fake.

He must have found something that surprised him and even frightened him... Except for this explanation, Lucian really couldn't find any answer.

All I can do is stay by his side and complete every task he gives me... I am the sword in his hand.

Weapons don't need thinking, just execution.

At the moment when the grey pupil boy relaxed, an inexplicable cold suddenly hit from the back of his neck!

The instinctive reaction of Lucian's right hand immediately tightened, and the cold light in the palm flashed. The reverse holding dagger stabbed behind him. At the same time, he extended his hand like lightning to protect the black haired wizard on one side.

"Pa --!"

The stagnation of the blade made Lucian's eyes widen and his pupils shrink suddenly.

My sword... Was blocked?!

"Oh... It's so dangerous. I almost died."

There was an expression of false alarm at the corners of his mouth. Asriel, dressed in a small red and black dress, carried his right hand behind him, gently pinched the dagger that was only a millimetre away from his neck with his index finger and thumb of his left hand, and looked at the gray pupil boy with smiling eyes:

"I really deserve to be the escort of Lord Loren Turin. I was noticed just after I walked behind."

I should say this... Lucian frowned, his eyes narrowed into a slit, and he didn't mean to take back the sword at all.

No breathing, no heartbeat, No footsteps... I found it within three steps of the other party. Just think about it. It's creepy!

For this young man who calls himself "the housekeeper of Miss Ariel corona" and is similar to his age, Lucian always has an inexplicable hostility... Especially his casual familiarity and closeness with Lord Lauren.

Did you know him when he was in eboden... But why did Lord Ayn Rand have no impression of this so-called "housekeeper"?

Or, there is something hidden in private

"Stop it." the black haired wizard suddenly interrupted them.

Asriel smiled and loosened his fingers. With a cold hum, the grey pupil boy put away his short sword and stood on Lauren's side; The figure is not tall, but stands in place like a javelin.

With a sigh, Loren had to change the topic: "what's the matter?"

"Well... Two messages, although exactly one." ignoring the murderous eyes of Lucian, the smiling teenager tilted his head:

"As for the hallucinogen that appeared at the last heresy rally, the vice president of the wizard Association... That is, the former president, his Excellency Ramses freswalker, found some clues. It seems that this kind of medicine is very popular among the nobles of red blood Castle recently and often appears in some salons."

"As for the source, it is more mysterious. Most of the nobles get it through friends and social networks, but they have basically locked in several wandering wizards in the Earl's territory;"

"Wandering wizard?"

"Yes, thanks to Lord Loren's reform of the wizard Association, and of course, the hard work of the vice president." Asriel smiled: "almost all the Wizards in the territory registered their identities in the association in exchange for cheap and better experimental materials, and the fox tail came out..."

"Not only that, it is rumored that there is a more advanced and expensive 'new medicine'... Can feel the pleasure of rising to heaven... Er, the rumor says so, Asriel just repeats it."

"Well, this has been expected." Lauren nodded slightly. "Where's the second one?"

"The place where governor Gaspar kept the monster... Has been found."
