Chapter 672 Adela was caught!
At the gate of the most magnificent building of the Cold Emerald Manor, when Waddington followed the steward of the manor away, several servants who had been walking among the crowd in the square turned their heads and looked at the only four remaining fully armed taxi guards.
These guards are the elite of Sky City, and four of them are White Flag Knights.
Several servants withdrew their gazes from the screaming guards and looked at each other. Then two of them slowly approached the four guards holding trays as cover.
"My two lords, would you like a glass of juice?"
Two servants carrying juice trays came to the guards standing on both sides of the gate.
The four guards looked at each other, not noticing anything unusual. Finally, they smiled and shook their heads at the servants, and one of them spoke.
"Thank you, we have a mission to accomplish, no need to..."
Puff! Puff!
But before this person could finish his words, the servant who looked the most normal at the banquet suddenly attacked them.
I saw that there was a sharp short blade under the tray in their hands, which pierced into the necks of two of them before they could defend themselves.
"not good!"
Puff! Puff!
The other two guards naturally noticed the abnormality at the first time, but unfortunately, when they tried to resist, they were rushed over and solved by more servants who had sneaked over.
In just a moment, the four guards with the strength of White Flag Knights at the gate of the building were assassinated.
"Ah! Murder!"
"Murder, run!"
The entrance to the banquet hall was the most conspicuous place. After the four guards were dealt with by these new temple members dressed as servants, some guests in the square immediately noticed it and exclaimed loudly.
"puff!"
But the guest had just shouted twice when several men in formal attire appeared beside him, drew their swords and chopped him to the ground.
In an instant, everyone in the square was silent for a moment, and seemed a little at a loss.
"Run! Murder!"
But the next moment, everyone present reacted and fled in panic.
"Don't worry about them. The mission is urgent. If you delay for too long, the guards outside will arrive soon. Don't kill anyone without my order after you go in. Except for Adela, no one else can be killed for the time being. They are also our bargaining chips!"
Several new Temple members in formal attire wanted to chase after the panicked crowd and chop a few more people, but were immediately stopped by a leader.
The mission they received today was to capture Adela and then let Sky City exchange her for the pharmacist, so if they wanted to get away, they certainly couldn't kill as usual!
"Yes, Master!"
Hearing the words of the leader, the new temple members responded one after another, and then several of them quickly walked towards the gate of the building.
…
At this time, Gervis was eating barbecue slowly, and now he had an elegant aristocratic demeanor when he ate.
However, just as Gervis was slowly enjoying the barbecue, his ears suddenly moved, and then his brows frowned slightly.
Although the music was still playing in the hall, it did not affect Gervis, who was always on high alert. He seemed to hear some noise outside the banquet hall.
So Gervis immediately listened attentively, but the next moment his face changed drastically.
"Laki, go to Adela! Get them all upstairs!"
Gervis did not dare to delay, and immediately put down the food in his hand and gave instructions to Laci.
"What's wrong Harry?"
Laci had previously tried to seduce two noble ladies, and he actually did seduce two of them and danced with each of them.
Unfortunately, after the dance, no one had any idea of having any "deeper contact" with Laci.
Because during the dance, people got to know Laci's background. He was just the second son of the Holy City of Heka, so naturally they were willing to have some wonderful things happen with him again.
After all, this hall is filled with heirs of the Holy City, and there is no time to waste on Lachi.
So Laci was now holding a glass of rum in his hand and wanted to get drunk, but when he heard Gervez's words, he didn't react for a moment and looked at Gervez in confusion.
"There's danger, hurry..."
Gervis had no time to explain to Laci, so he immediately urged him.
Bang!
But just as Gervis finished his words, he heard a loud bang at the door of the banquet hall, and saw two servants flying in from the door and falling directly on the long table next to them.
"ah!"
"What's going on?"
This sudden situation instantly shocked everyone present. No one expected that such a thing would happen at Adela's party.
Gervis's face suddenly became serious as more than 20 unidentified people walked into the banquet hall.
More than ten of them were dressed as servants, but they held blood-stained swords in their hands.
The other ten or so people were all wearing leather armor and holding swords in their hands.
It turned out that all of these people started as White Flag Knights, and there were even two Black Flag beginner knights and a strong man whom even Gervis could not see through. The aura of these strong men was exactly the same as the feeling that Waddington and others gave him.
It was obvious that this group of people had come with ill intentions. This was Adela's party, and the fact that they could come in like this meant that they were not afraid of the Sky City.
"Rachi, go and take Adela upstairs now!"
Seeing that Laci was still standing there in a daze, Gervis pushed Laci again.
"Ohh! Okay, Harry!"
When Laci was pushed by Gervis, he reacted immediately, nodded hurriedly to Gervis, then lowered his body and walked towards Adela.
…
"Where is Adela from your Castle in the Sky?"
After this group of people walked into the hall, all the young men at the scene were still in a daze, but they did not hesitate. They immediately walked up to the nearest young man, grabbed him by the collar, and started questioning him murderously.
"I am the heir to the Holy City of Tulu. What do you want to do?"
puff!
The young man didn't understand the situation for a moment, and immediately asked to use his identity to save his life. After all, he thought that he would be more useful if he was alive than if he was dead.
In fact, his idea was correct, but his luck was too bad and he was caught first.
Although the people from the New Temple cannot start a killing spree now, it is still necessary to kill a chicken to scare the monkeys. When the hall master saw that he was so long-winded, he immediately threw him into the air and chopped him with a sword, causing blood to splatter on the spot!
"Ah! Run away!"
Seeing this, the young people in the hall also reacted. This group of people actually killed people in public, and they immediately screamed and started to flee.
"Everyone stay where you are, don't move, or you will die!"
The young men in the hall began to flee, and the master of the new temple spoke immediately.
As his words rang out, several young men and women who were closer to them immediately froze in place, not daring to move.
However, those who were a little further away were still rushing upstairs, such as Adela, Laci, Lolita and others.
Because of Gervis' reminder, Lachiadela and the others were running in the front.
"There, that Adela goes upstairs!"
A new Temple member who had seen Adela's appearance before immediately pointed at Adela who was going upstairs and shouted.
"The fifteen of you stay here and control everyone. The rest of you will chase after her with me. Don't let her get away!"
The leader of the hall looked at Adela and immediately began to give orders. They left most of their men downstairs to guard the gate and control the young men and women, while the rest of them used their fighting spirit to prepare to chase after Adela.
"Fiery meteor!"
Seeing this, Gervis immediately released a primary spell in front of the pursuers before they took two steps, trying to stop them from catching up with Adela. !
Boom! Boom! Boom!
"ah!"
The range of the fiery meteor was as much as five meters. Caught off guard, the White Flag Knight stepped directly into Gervis's magic range and was instantly hit by the meteor-like flames, letting out a painful howl.
"Boy, you're looking for death!"
When the leader of the new temple saw that two of his men were injured in a surprise attack, he immediately looked at Gervis, the culprit, and shouted loudly, slashing at Gervis with a sword.
The sword beam flashing red light was five or six meters long and slashed directly towards Gervis.
Gervis' heartbeat quickened instantly.
"Fire Shield!"
As Gervis cast the spell again, a layer of fire shield appeared in front of him instantly.
boom!
But Gervis's shield was only a primary one after all. How could it possibly withstand the full-strength attack from the powerful hall master? The fire shield in front of him was shattered immediately. He flew backwards seven or eight meters and hit the wall of the hall hard.
"Harry!"
As Laci, Adela and the others were running away, they kept looking back at the situation downstairs. At this moment, they saw Gervis trying to stop the group of people from chasing them, but in the end he was chopped away and his life or death was unknown. Adela immediately shouted excitedly.
"Go, Adela, they are here just to see you!"
Although Lolita and Lucky were also sad about Harry's death, those people were powerful and were coming for Adela, so the two of them immediately pulled Adela upstairs quickly.
"Chase her and capture Adela alive first!"
Seeing that Gervis was hit by his sword and fell motionless against the wall, the master of the new temple naturally paid no attention to him. There was no reason for a junior magician to survive after being hit by his own Black Flag Knight.
So, he immediately commanded the remaining few people to chase upstairs.
Then they would circulate their fighting spirit and rush along the way. If they met young men and women blocking their way, they would not hesitate to use the back of their swords to knock them away.
…
"Everyone, squat where you are!"
When the hall master led his men to chase Adela, only two of the more than ten members of the New Temple downstairs were left guarding the door, while the others were in the hall controlling the young men and women.
Although there was no shortage of talented cultivators among the young men and women present, their strongest was only at the peak of gold strength. When faced with a group of white-flag knights and two black-flag knights, they had no choice but to surrender.
…
While the young people in the hall were being controlled one after another.
At this moment, Gervis was lying motionless on the ground, but his consciousness was within the transparent mask.
Although this magical mask is very powerful, it has some flaws when it comes to changing faces, and that is that it cannot be changed quickly.
Even if Gervis wanted to restore his original face now, it would take one-third of the disguise time, which means that if he wanted to return to his true face, it would take at least three or four minutes.
At this time, Gervis was lying on the ground waiting for the disguise to be completed.
At this time, he had taken three black kiwis in succession, namely a kiwi that increased his strength by 50 times, a fruit with infinite fighting spirit energy, and a kiwi that provided damage immunity.
The previous attack from the new temple master shattered Gervis's fire shield, knocked him several meters away, and finally hit the wall.
This seemed like a situation where death was certain, but in reality, Gervis was completely unharmed.
Moreover, Gervis was deliberately hit by the sword just to have time to change his face quietly here.
…
As time passed, the situation in the hall downstairs was finally under control, and Gervis' disguise was finally completed, with his consciousness successfully separated from the magic mask.
At this time, a member of the New Temple downstairs saw that the situation was under control. He suddenly glanced at Gervis lying in the corner and slowly walked over.
Gervis just cast a spell that caused damage to two of his companions, and it was quite serious.
Therefore, he wanted to confirm whether this person was really dead. If not, he would torture him severely later.
Gervis naturally sensed that the members of the New Temple were walking towards him.
Just as he was thinking about whether he should rush to rescue Adela immediately, he suddenly heard a sound coming from the stairs on the second floor.
"Be honest, as long as you obey me, I promise you won't die!"
"You should know the style of our New Temple. If anyone dares to be dishonest, that person will be your role model!"
After all, the group of new Temple members who broke in today were too powerful. Even though Adela and the others ran upstairs first, they were quickly caught up.
Moreover, these members of the New Temple also came well prepared. They did not even give Adela and the others a chance to open the teleportation scroll. Instead, they directly threw out a scroll that disturbed the surrounding space and time, cutting off Adela and the others' last chance of escape.
At this time, Adela and the others had been forced down from upstairs by the new temple master.
It was not until this moment that the young people present realized that these people were actually from the New Temple. For a moment, they were so scared that their faces turned pale.
“It’s actually someone from the New Temple!”
After hearing what the man just said, Gervis decided to stay put for the time being. Now that Adela had been captured, he would wait and see what these people from the New Temple were going to do next.
The new temple member who had wanted to check on Gervis' life or death stopped and did not continue to check on Gervis, because he did not want his hall master to think that he had not completed his task with all his heart.
"Master!"
When the leader of the New Temple came to the first floor with his people, several members of the New Temple immediately greeted him.
"Well, is everything under control? Today's mission went smoothly. Now open the gate and wait for the city lords to return!"
"Also, send a signal to Natali, tell him that the work here has been completed, and ask him to join us!"
For today's plan, the New Temple sent a total of two temple masters.
One of them was responsible for distracting and detaining Waddington.
The other person brought experts to control the banquet.
Now that everything has been completed smoothly, they need to gather together and wait in the hall for Edward and others to return, and then start negotiating terms.
