The meeting hall of Fenglu Castle.

The Earl walked to his main seat and sat down. At the same time, he arranged two inconspicuous seats for Selena and Rosen in the corners.

Before the two of them sat down, Rosen felt many inquiring gazes.

Some of them came from the Earl's magical advisory group, and they were full of doubts and confusion.

The other part came from the Kao Mage Corps, with a strong sense of vigilance.

At the same time, a large number of extremely low-intensity mana fluctuations appeared in the two mage groups.

This is the mages talking quietly using mind whispers.

Mages are very sensitive to fluctuations in mana. A powerful mage can predict the upcoming spells through the fluctuations, and this is one of the most important skills in the confrontation between magic and magic.

But no wizard could infer the specific content of the whispers of the mind through the fluctuations.

Because the whispers of the mind are so faint.

It's like a person can see the action of someone whispering, but can't hear the content of the whisper.

But Rosen is an exception.

It's true that he is a mortal, but his extremely high level of magic power gives him extremely keen perception, and he can even clearly distinguish the specific waveform of each magic power fluctuation.

But this alone is not enough, because the reaction speed and processing speed of the mortal brain have limits, and this limit cannot meet the requirements of real-time analysis, so it is still incomprehensible.

But he has Laifu.

And it has been trained to have the ability to detect and translate secret thoughts.

So, when the mages present communicated quietly, Lai Fu automatically translated and recorded their conversation for Rosen.

Rosen listened to all the secret conversations but his face remained expressionless.

It wasn't long before Rosen had understood the details of the scam.

He smiled in his heart: "So that's what's going on~"

At this time, the Kao Mage Corps also discussed a preliminary countermeasure.

Their leader, the great wizard Lukavado, who had four rings and 30 stars, started an attack.

"My Lord Earl, who are these two?"

The Earl introduced with a smile: "Master, this is Master Rosen and his new wife, Master Adrian. They have come here specially to see the demeanor of the Kao masters."

"Master Adrian?"

As soon as this word came out, the mages present suddenly became agitated and looked towards Selena frequently, and at the same time, a large wave of mental whispers appeared.

Master Luwakado's long, snow-white eyebrows trembled slightly.

"My Lord Earl, this violates the confidentiality agreement between us."

"We have explained to you many times in all seriousness that the magic knowledge we brought is extremely valuable. In addition to the two parties to the transaction, no third party may be present to prevent the knowledge from being leaked."

"So, if the Count insists on having these two guests sit in, then we have no choice but to leave."

When Master Lukawado said this, he had an expression that showed no room for negotiation, and his tone was unquestionable, as if he was going to leave if Rosen didn't leave.

The other khal wizards also immediately began to collect the documents and scrolls on the table, as if they were ready to leave at any time.

The count was a little flustered, gave a dry laugh, and hurried to explain.

"Master, Master Rosen is not an outsider, but my nephew, so it is not considered a violation of the confidentiality agreement."

After saying that, he was afraid that Lukawado would be dissatisfied, so he added: "I promise that they will only listen and will not say a word."

Master Aruwado, however, left no room for negotiation and his face was serious.

"My Lord Earl, a contract is a contract. If it can be changed at will, it is no longer a contract, but a piece of waste paper!"

"So, I insist on executing the contract, otherwise we will leave immediately!"

At this point, the magic consultants in Shire County also became anxious.

Master Nord turned to look at the earl and whispered to him in his mind.

"Lord, things have come to this point. There is no need to get upset over a small matter."

Although the Earl was a lord, he did not have much say when faced with advanced knowledge of magic, and he felt tremendous pressure at this time.

A pair of eyes involuntarily looked at Rosen, and pointed to the door with his eyes, which meant very clearly: "Let's go, and stop listening in."

Obviously, this group of khal fraud wizards were very vigilant and did not give Rosen any chance to expose the scam.

Fortunately, Rosen was well prepared.

He first whispered to his wife Selena: "Madam, it's your turn."

The two had discussed countermeasures in detail last night. At this moment, Selena immediately stood up and introduced herself as planned.

"I am a master of magic with four rings and 18 stars, and the wife of Mage Rosen. But at the same time, I am also the Dawn Princess of Veran, Selena Adrian."

Having said this, she glared coldly at the somewhat stunned Luwakado.

Without waiting for the other party to react, he immediately fired the artillery shells that had been prepared long ago.

"Master Luwakado, you have committed a serious crime of treason!"

"What?!"

Luwakado was stunned by the shell and couldn't speak.

Selena seized the opportunity and pressed on to win.

"In today's Witt Continent, large-scale food production has become a strategic field that all major kingdoms focus on. Every wizard who studies related topics is under the secret supervision of the kingdom."

“Similarly, any breakthroughs in this area are important achievements related to the kingdom’s strategy and will be given great attention by the kingdom.”

"Now, the master has made a huge breakthrough in the large-scale food-making technique, but he left Kao safely with such a strategic achievement. If this is not treason, what else could it be?!"

Luwakado was so shocked that he was speechless.

He just wanted to cheat some money, how dare he commit treason?

Selena turned to look at the Count.

"Count, once the bread factory is officially put into production in Shire County and the news leaks out, these khal mages will definitely be hunted down by khal assassins!"

"Kao's assassins may not target you, but they will definitely destroy your bread factory and make all your investment go to waste!"

These words were truly horrifying. The Earl was shocked when he heard them. He subconsciously looked at his chief magic advisor: "Master Nord, is that so?"

Master Nord looked shocked and confused: "Lord, I have never heard of this."

Master Luwakado finally recovered and shouted, "Since it is a confidential decree, how did the princess know about it?"

Serena smiled coldly: "Master, do you think our Dawn City Black Guards are just decorations?"

"If you still don't believe it, I might as well tell you."

"Aaron's secret decree is called the 'Thirty-Seven Articles of Lionheart', Kaa's secret decree is called the 'Black Rose Covenant', and Levender also issued the 'King's Secret Order' three months ago."

Even the file name was revealed, and it came from Princess Selena's mouth, which made people have to believe it.

The Earl immediately believed it and couldn't help asking, "Your Highness, if that's the case, why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Selena shrugged: "I can't make a final judgment before I see the khal wizard. But now, I can tell the count responsibly that these khal wizards are either liars or traitors!"

The Earl immediately turned to look at Master Cao.

"Master Luwakado, I need your explanation!"

The Earl's voice was stern, with a cold gleam in his eyes.

After all, Luwakado is a master of magic and has a very strong mind. Even at this point, he still maintains his composure.

His face was cold, and he said in a cold voice, "It seems that the Earl has no sincerity in cooperating. It would be a waste of time to stay any longer."

"Let's go!"

This group of khao wizards stood up and prepared to leave.

At this point, even a fool would know that these guys are scammers.

The Earl gritted his teeth and sneered: "Master Luwacardo, do you think my Shire County is your backyard? You can come and go as you please?"

"Guards, take him down!"

The Earl had an overwhelming military advantage over this group of scholar-mages who did not carry any magical weapons.

But before he could finish his words, he saw Luwakado burst into laughter, and his body quickly melted and deformed like a candle, and sounds continued to come out of the deformed body.

"Haha~~ Country guys, sorry to disappoint you, we are well prepared, hehe~~"

As they were talking, the bodies of this group of khao wizards all began to melt like candles, laughing triumphantly as they melted.

The Earl was furious and roared like a lion: "Master Nord, track him down!"

Master Nord immediately began casting tracking spells.

He was also amazing, changing ten tracking spells in succession within five seconds.

Master Luwakado's half-melted body let out a hoarse, distorted laugh.

"Nord, don't waste your energy. All the spells you use are outdated."

Sure enough, Master Nord's tracking spell had no effect.

He was shocked and helpless: "Lord, I tried my best."

The Earl was so angry that his face turned blue. He wanted to call the other party a waste, but he was concerned about the other party's identity as a master. The two angers were blocked together and his face was distorted with anger.

When Master Chao was about to leave, Selena suddenly raised the Sleeping Beauty Staff, pointed at the candles, and a series of dark blue seals flew over.

The seals were placed one after another on the melting human body, and then the princess's cold voice sounded.

"I have marked their souls. Master, please use soul divination."

Master Nord was looking ashamed. He was stunned when he heard the words and showed a hint of hesitation.

"Hurry!" the count urged loudly.

Nord tried it hurriedly, and sure enough, there was a response.

"It's in the residential area next to Fenglu Castle, one kilometer away!"

"Their souls haven't completely left yet, I'm going to give them a severe punishment right now!"

The white-haired master shouted loudly and was about to cast a spell.

But before he could make any move, a crimson ball of lightning appeared first.

The lightning ball quickly turned into an electric net, covering the dozen or so melting Kao wizard substitutes.

Advanced mental magic: mental electric shock!

"Ah~~~"

The khal wizards suddenly began to tremble like boiling oil.

Trembling and screaming, it looked like it was performing a weird witch dance.

Selena's voice sounded immediately: "I have severely damaged their souls. There is no way they can escape."

The count was delighted: "Guards, go and catch him alive!"

A group of guards rushed out immediately.

Master Nord also shouted: "These swindlers are really abominable, but they are also very capable. I will lead the team myself!"

As he spoke, he actually rushed towards the door of the conference hall, his movements as agile as those of a young man.

As he passed Serena, he turned his head quickly to glance at her.

This look was very complicated. At first glance, it seemed to be admiration, but it contained a hint of an indescribable light.

But what he didn't realize was that a small low-level wizard was hiding in the crowd, taking everything in.

"Hehe~ This old guy still wants to silence me, no way!"

It was obvious that the series of unexpected situations made Nord panic and he was at a loss as to what to do.

Rosen immediately whispered to the Count: "Uncle, Master Nord is old, why not send a strong man to protect him?"

The Earl agreed with this and immediately turned to look at the corner of the conference room, where stood a guard with a very low presence.

"A-Sang, go and protect the master quickly, don't let him get hurt."

This trusted guard is a four-ring warrior master, who was trained by the Robert family at great cost since childhood.

She is particularly good at fighting and very loyal. Her role to the Earl is like that of Alia to Rosen.

Asan nodded and accepted the order. He took a flash of footsteps, bursting with fighting spirit, and followed Master Nord all the way like a ghost.
