And most importantly, when this group of volunteers panicked, they would find another thing. The "Master Brave and his companions" were gone at some point!

Apart from the collapse, do these people have other ways to go?

But how can two-legged ones run better than four-legged ones? What's more, the national mages brought by the light cavalry often end the massacre after a few small spells such as flashes and explosions, and several rounds of bows and arrows.

After that, the state wizards were responsible for gathering their souls. After everything was over, the troops kept 'conquering' the next batch of targets, while the 'heroes' continued to rush further away. A team of people could get almost two or three hundred high-quality souls in one night, and it was much safer and faster than following the team in the war.

In nine days, two thousand Rangers and forty or fifty selected "heroes" were exchanged for nearly ten thousand souls, and they were also preferred.

Such a result is much better than the previous battle.

In addition, this action is equivalent to combed the land of the entire occupied area thoroughly. It can be imagined that even if there are people from the empire who really come to encourage civilians, those civilians who suffer losses will no longer be blind and the trouble will be caused. Although the young and middle-aged people in the occupied land will lose a lot of money during the process, and the tax revenue paid will definitely be reduced a little, compared to the danger of large-scale riots, this profit is not worth mentioning at all.

Anyway, those empire rednecks are not well-equipped, and they are the best materials for soul harvesting.

As for this method, Rudolf could describe it as "despicable". He used those people's natural curiosity and vanity to openly carry out "bandit suppression" one after another. Even if any force wants to stop it, there is no excuse.

How convenient?

But if it were a different person, could he come up with a trap so easily to deal with those material civilians? Even if they had never met him or even met him?

This perception made Rudolph uneasy - because every time he thought about this, he felt that this way of doing things was not something ordinary people would think of. With some shocking and cold smell, he, the demon wolf who once ordered the slaughter of the city, felt cold and uncomfortable somewhere in his heart.

"Ah. Lord Rudolf, if you want to double to twice the soul, it is actually simple..." His Highness the Prince didn't seem to notice his "old friend" and just continued, "Thinking that these dead guys belong to various villages anyway, this crime of treason is an open and honest killing method. If you have that determination, you can let the cavalry go one by one when they return... Get it, but I guess the quality may be worse. Of course, I didn't plan to let so many imperial people in Linlulan Province this year. But if you are not afraid of trouble, then you can have a little accident during the investigation..."

"Enough, you..." Rudolph shouted coldly, as if he was no longer willing to continue listening.

“This method is good.”

It trembled slightly like an earthquake, and it emerged from the purple-red crystal. After that, the space twisted, and the dark red halo formed a thin human image. When it was paired with its eyes, several humans immediately left their seats and knelt down.

"Well, more than four thousand souls. There will be twice as many as the number in the future. You are doing well." The mage who suddenly appeared took a few steps, glanced at the crystal, and said with a little pleasure: "Especially you, Prince Strand, your idea is very good, Rudolph. Don't you do what he said?"

"This, yes, I'll prepare now!" General Demon Wolf lowered his head to cover up his panic. He turned around and walked out, but before he could turn completely, he was already stopped again.

"You three are doing pretty well, so the master asked me to give you rewards. It can increase your strength."

When his hand was retracted into the sleeve of the robe, he stretched out again, a large cloud of thick black smoke had already been removed!

If you look closely, you will find that it is actually a kind of darkness condensed into substance, but there are countless subtle highlights like needles, colorful and rippling momentum, making it look quite dazzling!

The three of them each showed a surprised expression.

This ‘reward’ seemed to come too suddenly, without any warning, and was never that simple. Although the red-robed mage also had the same definite behavior on weekdays, it was rare to be so anxious.

But just as they were hesitating, the man had already divided the black hand into three groups, one big and two small, without saying a word, and put the backhand into their bodies!

The black fog was twisting, looking extremely strange. The three of them couldn't help but show a hint of surprise and subconsciously wanted to dodge. However, the majesty of the red-robed mage was obviously enough to suppress their resistance, so they stood still and dared not move a little. They let the darkness flow through their bodies and gradually sink into them.

However, the largest black mist originally placed on Rose Black, after twisting a few times, suddenly gushed out, and about half of it rushed to Prince Strang's body. As a result, the person who got the most darkness turned from a female mage to him.

"I didn't expect that the master likes you more." Looking at the black mist gradually sinking into the three of them, the mage in red robe let out a soft sneer.

But at this moment, no one could hear his voice.

Sweat dripped from the top of the three of them, their faces twisted, as if they were suffering tremendous pain, but their mouths opened seemed to be unable to even shout. They could only squeeze out the slight friction sounds of creaking from their throats, and even their bodies were spasms and their knees were trembling, but they maintained their original posture and stood firm.

This situation continued to approach an hourglass scale, and Rudolph and Rose Black let out a hoarse howl one after another and fell to the ground with a loud bang!

Prince Strang's body shook, but just before he fell down, he took a sudden step and barely supported himself! "This... is, what, thing... Thomas... Lord" squeezed out a sound from his throat as if rubbing rust. He raised his head and looked at the red-robed mage in front of him. The sweat on his forehead fell drop by drop, and his face was as white as if it was dead. Only his eyes were filled with some vitality.

"It just hurts a little at the beginning, and you will know its benefits after that." Thomas's eyes stayed on him for a moment, then reached out to pull out a healing wand, and a little bit on the three of them. With the abundant positive energy infused, the terrible pain finally disappeared, and the three of them stood up slowly. They each experienced the changes in their bodies-

But even Rose Black, who has a lot of research on magic, cannot explain what changes he has made. It is a very mysterious feeling. It seems that some parts of the body have become more flexible and can command every muscle more conveniently, and the control over the magic net seems to have been strengthened a little.

"There are some problems with the empire. Although the troops are still gathering, there is no intention to attack for the time being." Withdrawing the wand, Thomas ignored the few people who were thinking about them, and just ordered casually: "The ability of the imperial electoral army is very tricky. Don't disturb them easily for the time being, and wait until they gather enough people to wipe out them in one fell swoop."

The three of them bowed their heads and obeyed the orders.

Although the movements were consistent, the expressions were different. The female mage looked pious, while Rudolph was accustomed to being cold and numb, only James, with a little ridiculous and suspicious, but he bowed his head deeply and hid his expression in the shadows well.

But the great mage's words made him look up again: "There seems to be something wrong with Romanty. That old guy Benjamin has destroyed the spell I placed on the king, so you have to deal with him. I think he will send someone to pick you up soon."

"You are talking about Benjamin...is the great wizard of the protection department in that academy?"

“What’s the problem?”

"He wants to... come and interrogate me?"

"Interrogation? Humph. It's about the same, although it's only a question in name. He is good at protective spells. Because of his strong specialty, the school is forbidden from choosing three. He probably has no specialty in enchanting. But after all, he has a good relationship with those two old guys, so maybe he can prepare some more powerful enchanting techniques,"

Strand was almost dumbfounded.

With the help of that soul gem, he could learn all the memories of the real Prince Strang, so he has not revealed any flaws yet. At some point, he has even regarded himself as the real Prince Strang, but that doesn't mean that he is real, let alone the opponent is a great wizard.

Now he has fallen into this situation too deeply. One-third of Romanty's officials were ordered to be cleansed in his name, and actions such as war were also launched in his name. If the identity is exposed, the best ending will be death... Therefore, he was stunned for a moment, and he asked without hesitation: "But... why can't it be the same as last time...uh!

The young prince's body trembled for a moment, and he couldn't help but scream! An invisible force came from the void and stabbed hard in his mind! The tingling pain of stirring his head made the blood that had just condensed on his face dissipate again, as white as it was almost transparent!

"Don't be timid. With the help of his master, he will not see through your identity. Just pretend that you don't know anything. It's better to be careful that the king will pay too much attention to you. Therefore, keep that soul and be careful not to show your flaws. If he wants to be with you for a long time to test you, you can try to show your boredom with him."

Thomas' expression was still faint, as if the pain that Stran had just had nothing to do with him.

"But master, in this way, our offensive plan..." Rudolph whispered for a moment.

"I've said that the Empire has begun to mobilize troops. Our attack cannot continue. You and the national mages prepare to build a new line of defense along this line. In this way, the Empire will mobilize more people in a short while." After a pause, Thomas ordered Rose Black, and then his figure blurred: "Prepare, that old guy may come to pick up Strand soon. You can try to ask to follow him, but if it doesn't work, it doesn't matter."

When the voice ended, the figure of the wizard disappeared into the air.

Strand breathed a sigh of relief, touched the sweat on the forehead, and then patted his body everywhere, not realizing anything wrong, but his heart became heavier - the darkness and pain just now were definitely not illusory, and the mage was not so bored to play this kind of game with him, which means that it might be a closer control method that can be used to fight the interrogation of the mage called Benjamin.

In a daze, he suddenly felt his arms tightening. Then he noticed that Rose Black was grabbing him, and a stone-like grayish white color was spreading in one hand.

"What are you doing...uh!"

The luster of the Dragon Power Technique flashed, so even the weak woman had the power comparable to that of a monster, and the defense increased by the Stone Skin Technique became a weapon. Unpredictable, Stran's arm had already twisted into a strange shape in a crisp crackling sound. The heart-wrenching pain made him scream violently!

Then a powerful force on his broken arm pulled him forward and staggered forward, his eyes facing the eyes in the female mage's hood. There seemed to be a flame in his dark pupils.

"A little tip, don't forget that you are not qualified to question now." Rose Black snorted gloomy: "It's not only Benjamin and the others who can maintain your life, and it's also OK to be complacent. Always keep your identity in mind. Or you can make you smarter."

She then pushed him away and pulled out another healing staff.

I don't know if it was specially created. Although the halo on the healing staff was warm, it made the broken bones particularly numb, itchy and tingling, as if millions of ants were climbing and biting. Compared with this, the severe pain when it was broken was nothing. However, Stran clenched his teeth hard. Even if there were bleeding marks on the corner of his mouth, he did not make a sound "shenyin".

"Get out!"

Rose Black pulled back his wand and made Strand turn and leave without saying a word.

But the eyes were intertwined, and the gloom in the young man's eyes suddenly made Rose Black stunned. But she shook her head, but the feeling did not disappear. The female mage suddenly found that her heart was beating wildly! The palpitations after wave made her almost breathless.

Prince Strang slowly walked into the back tent.

The series of encounters just now were too complicated, with several shocks and nervousness. He felt that his scalp was aching. He reached out and rubbed his forehead hard but couldn't find any effect. So he simply pulled out a bottle of wine from a small table in a corner, bit off the bottle plug and poured it down! The feeling of the cold wine sliding down his throat and collar barely suppressing his irritability.

Damn it, damn it!

He whispered in a low voice.

These damn bastards are just playing with fire. But he is the only one who is sent to the fire... But what qualifications do he have to pretend to be the prince in front of a great wizard? Is it useful to have memories? Is it useful to just look like it? There are ways in the spells that can distinguish the nuances of bloodlines! What's more, even if you only listen to a few words, you can guess that the guy in red must have... played off this time!

That's right, that best friend often describes...

But what to do?

Who can help yourself?

Edward?

He is the only one. You have to contact him immediately... but is it too late? Now that we are so far away from Romanty, even if we rely on crystal communication, it is normal to waste one day and half of the day if we continue. But that guy said very quickly, the great wizard's subordinates would...

The young prince turned around to look for the crystal ball, but suddenly felt that the scenery in front of him was a little blurred, and a dizziness immediately rushed up...

"James...Rospal von James Junior..."

A voice seemed to howl in a void, James responded in a daze, but then suddenly woke up: "Yes... no! I am Stran! Stran Seawal Lane Fernandis."

"A lie will become true after a thousand times, but in fact, it is just a matter of identification." The voice continued, but in fact James could not be sure whether it was a sound, subtle, grand, scattered and continuous, it was an indescribable language, and he could not interpret it himself, but it was easy to understand its meaning when he heard it.

He raised his gaze and found that he could not see anything--even at all. Everything around him was so confused that everything seemed to have disappeared, leaving only his consciousness suspended in a darkness.

"A very interesting little bug. In this plane's life, you are very rare."

"Who are you?"

"You can call me master."

"Why?"

"Why? I can kill you like a bug. As long as I have an idea, you will die. Is this enough? Or, I can also give you strength, identity, and everything you want." The voice said.

"Didn't you lie to me?"

"What's the need? What do you have to be deceived by me?"

"But..." James carefully restrained his thoughts, because he noticed that as long as he thought of something, he would be perceived by the other party: "If you are my master, then you... don't you just want to get something from me?"

"No, I want to give you more, the strength you want. Do you want to take revenge? Do you want to get a lot, right? Do you want to kill someone? Do you want this country? Do you want to be the real prince?"
