Mount and Blade System: Start from Pioneer Lords.

Chapter 332 A secret conspiracy arises
A faint masculine scent permeates the air, making people feel relaxed and happy.

Ai Xilu followed Levi closely, and the breath made her face slightly red.

In fact, this is a characteristic that the lord has acquired since the "Book of the Holy Word" entered the temple.

Not to mention that the Holy Light can make people subconsciously feel close to it, the Book of Holy Words also taps into the power hidden in the human body, making the masculine aura even stronger.

It's as if the Creator has bestowed all the masculinity and bravery of a man upon the lord. He is simply a walking hormone. It is hard for an ordinary girl who has not gotten rid of the mating instinct deep in her blood to resist him.

"I'd like a glass of golden wine, please."

Levi stopped the well-dressed waiter.

"Your Excellency, there is no need to be so polite. It is my honor to serve you." The young waiter was obviously an admirer of the Lion Hunting Knight. He bowed excitedly and poured Levi a glass of golden wine that the South Territory sent to the king.

"Then help me serve some food that suits the girl's taste to me." Levi said casually.

"It's my honor." The young waiter immediately went to take back the limited edition desserts with pride.

Ai Xilu ate with big mouthfuls of satisfaction, without any of the reserve and virtue that a princess should have.

Levi drank his wine and pondered for a moment. He asked, "Princess Ai Xilu, do you know how to get to the two places you mentioned last time?"

If it was anyone else, the lord would never ask so directly, but if it was the innocent little girl in front of him, he would have no worries at all.

Speaking of Aishilu, she couldn't help feeling a little aggrieved. She was obviously a famous lion hunter knight in Debe, but he lied to her and said he was a guard. He also ate all the sweet potatoes that she had grown with great difficulty.

However, the grievance disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Perhaps Lord Levi just didn't want me to be too restrained at that time." Aixilu thought.

"I went there when I was a kid, so I should remember most of the way there," she then said uncertainly.

"Can you take me there? I have been interested in these mysterious places since I was a child." The lord smiled warmly, "This is a spirit of adventure, and it is also one of my hobbies."

In fact, he had no sense of adventure at all. If he had not promised Silvia, he would have led the team back to Highcliff Castle this morning.

Ai Xilu hesitated. It was not that she didn't want to take Levi with her, but there were patrolling guards in the palace, and she was just a princess that no one remembered.

But this was Lord Levi's first request to her, and she couldn't let him down no matter what!

"No problem, Lord Levi, I can take you there."

"Thank you so much." Li immediately pretended to be excited and pulled Ai Xilu out the door: "Let's go now without further delay."

……

On dark and windy nights, it is the time for murder and arson.

However, the lord has been following a vegetarian diet and keeping his mind pure these days. He doesn't want to kill any living beings and only wants to be a masked thief.

On the roof of the palace, Ai Xilu looked at the patrolling guards leaving in the distance, and then looked at Lord Levi in ​​front of her with his face covered with a black cloth, her eyes full of confusion.

She thought that the two of them were interrogated by layers of guards and then went to the designated location, but she didn't expect them to move in a way that she could hardly imagine.

"Ahem, if we go through the interrogation it will definitely waste a lot of time. The banquet is about to begin, so we just need to take a quick look." Facing Ai Xilu's misunderstanding, Levi explained calmly, but he was extremely excited in his heart.

In his previous life, when he played martial arts games, he liked to take unconventional routes. If there was a door, he would climb through the window. If there was a window, he would walk on the roof. Only in this way could he have the experience of being a hero.

Now that I have an inhuman physique in this life, it is inevitable that I want to experience the feeling of flying over eaves and walking on walls.

However, Gaoya Castle was full of low wooden buildings and there was no place for him to show his skills. Now his dream has finally come true.

"Hold on."

The lord picked up the thin Ai Xilu and jumped lightly. A black shadow passed through the air, spanning a distance of more than ten blades and arrived at the roof of another Gothic house.

Ai Xilu covered her mouth tightly with her two little hands, afraid that she would scream out because of fear, but an indescribable feeling of excitement surged in her heart.

With Levi's current physical condition, although he has not tried it specifically, it is not a problem for him to jump over hundreds of blades in one jump, so walking in the palace full of buildings is not a problem at all.

In fact, the Derby royal family had considered that someone might sneak into the palace, and they had made many arrangements for this purpose.

First, no-fly magic circles were set up in many places in the palace, which could turn magicians who flew with elemental abilities into complete chickens.

Secondly, the guards patrolling the grounds were extremely strict, and it was almost impossible for anyone suspicious to get through.

But they could never imagine that someone could jump on the roof purely by physical strength, allowing the lord to move freely.

In fact, it is not the Derby royal family’s fault for their lack of consideration.

Ever since the legendary temple became history, the Paladins who practiced the "Book of Holy Words" had at most ten times the power of ordinary people.

No one in the entire Seven Kingdoms could reach the terrifying power that the Lord had now, and jumping on Gothic spires was even more impossible, so no one considered this aspect.

"Lord Levi, the Black Crow Clock Tower is in front of us." Ai Xilu said in a low voice, pointing at a black tower with a clock hanging on the roof in front of them.

Levi nodded slightly and estimated the approximate distance from here. Seventy steps? Not very far.

After checking that there was no one around, he bent his legs slightly, then jumped lightly, his body turned into an arc, and flew away.

"Ah." Faced with this height and this distance, Ai Xilu couldn't help but exclaimed softly.

Fortunately, with a slight "click" sound, the two landed safely on the top of the bell tower.

"Hmm? Still no response?" Looking at the ring on his hand that didn't move at all, Levi couldn't help but mutter, wondering if Silvia had given him a fake.

And there was no crying sound in the middle of the night as Aishilu mentioned. It was probably just a rumor spread among the maids. After all, there must be one or two strange stories in the palace.

He did not hesitate and continued to move towards the next location. Unfortunately, he got the expected result not long after.

During this time, he even walked around the palace half a circle, but the ring on his hand did not respond at all.

He couldn't help but turn his eyes to the church behind the palace.

This church was not very magnificent, but he instinctively wanted to go and see it.

Now that he is extremely powerful, he doesn't think that this instinct is groundless.

Often the stronger a person is, the sharper his intuition is.

To use the words of that lousy magician Ferro, the stronger a person's spirit and body are, the more in tune with the world they are, the more they can see the truth of the world, and they can often perceive things that ordinary people cannot.

"What's that in Ashway?"

Ashley, whose eyes were already spinning, took a long time to come back to his senses. He followed Levi's gaze and replied, "I heard that my father built it specifically for a court wizard so that he could study and research magic."

For Harland to build a palace specifically for him, his status must have reached the legendary level. Levi hesitated for a moment, but decided to go and take a look.

Soon, the lord arrived at the garden in front of the church. It was surrounded by shrubs and flowers, and the huge bronze door was engraved with intricate patterns.

His gaze was like being glued, firmly fixed on the church. With his temple-level cultivation, he could easily feel all kinds of powerful elemental fluctuations filling inside.

To people of high enough rank, this kind of fluctuation is as conspicuous as a giant dragon, but no one knows what means of concealment are used. As long as you are at a certain distance, you will be completely unable to detect these elemental fluctuations.

Looking at the ring that still had no response, Levi fell into deep thought, wondering if this was the reason for the lack of response. He was wondering whether he should take the risk and go check it out.

"who!"

Suddenly, he hugged Ai Xilu in his arms and looked towards a dark tree-lined path next to him.

A thin figure walked out of the darkness, and the voice appeared along with his figure.

"This should be Mr. Levi, right? I wonder why you are visiting so late at night?"

This was an old man who was about one-nine feet tall and dressed in a court wizard's robe. His body was extremely thin, as if only a pile of bones with skin was left. There was no expression on his shriveled, old face.

This must be a powerful magician, holding an extraordinary looking magic wand in his hand. The powerful magic power in his body is as deep as the ocean, which is several times stronger than Li Luo.

The lord understood that this man must be the owner of this church, the legendary magician.

"I'm really sorry. I originally wanted to return to the banquet, but I got lost and somehow ended up here." Levi was not panicked. He had already taken off the black cloth on his face, so he showed an impeccable polite smile.

He knew that no one would believe what he said, but it didn't matter, because when he was discovered, nothing he said would matter.

He calculated the distance between the two. This magician was definitely many times stronger than Li Luo, but the distance between them was only about ten steps. He was confident that he could chop off his opponent's forehead with a sword before he could cast a spell.

Unless the opponent is strong enough to withstand his strength and agility attributes, which have now reached the limit, and the Holy Word Book has been cultivated to the full strength of the Holy Hall.

"Well, outsiders are not allowed to wander around the palace late at night. If Lord Levi wants to visit the palace, you might as well get His Majesty's warrant during the day. This will save you a lot of trouble."

What the lord didn't expect was that the other party actually nodded without asking too many questions. "Go back to the banquet hall and follow this road to the end. There will be guards to show you the way."

"Thank you." Levi nodded and left with Ai Xilu, who didn't dare to speak the whole time.

Until the other person's figure completely disappeared in the darkness, only the old man's garden was left, and suddenly a cold whisper was heard.

"Why didn't you do anything just now?"

"He's strong."

"How strong?"

"I used the 'Half-Digit Prophecy' before to check the result after we took action... and saw that you were dead."

"What about you?"

"So I can only see you dead!"

"Is he here for Lilo?"

"No, no one will know that I did it, not even the Pope of Telese."

"It seems that the silver dragon bitch discovered what we did. Be careful recently."

"Don't worry, she can't get in here."

“Unprecedented unrest is coming, and we must seize the opportunity.”

"Um……"

The whispers disappeared into the darkness along with the closing church door, just like the conspiracy growing in the darkness.

……

"Phew, I was scared to death."

After leaving the church, Ai Xilu immediately began to breathe heavily, her face turned pale.

"Just now I thought you were going to fight,"

Although she was a little stupid, she could sense that something was wrong with the atmosphere. The air was so heavy that she couldn't breathe, as if she had been thrown into a bottomless storm sea with darkness all around.

The lord ignored Aishilu and just touched the ring on his hand without saying a word.

Just when the other party appeared, the ring lit up almost imperceptibly, which proved that it was related to the bronze dragon that Silvia mentioned, but it was hidden very well.

Levi shook his head. Since it was proved that the other party was related to the bronze dragon, then what happened next had nothing to do with him. Let Silvia deal with it alone. He didn't want to step into this muddy water.

"By the way, Lord Levi, I will swear in the name of the Goddess of Holy Light about what happened tonight. I will bury it deep in my heart until the end of my death." Aixilu suddenly raised three fingers in a serious manner, with a solemn expression on her little face.

What happened tonight was simply the most bizarre and wonderful thing she had ever experienced in her life, so she thought that Levi definitely didn't want the world to know.

"That's not necessary." Levi waved his hand, "This matter is actually easy to solve."

Without waiting for Aishilu to ask how to solve the problem, the lord walked towards the banquet hall.

"The banquet should be starting soon, let's go back first."

As he said, when the two returned to the banquet, everyone was present.

After coming in, Aixilu took the initiative to ask for separation. She was afraid that her presence would bring some unnecessary trouble to Levi, and the lord did not refuse.

In the center of the hall, two princesses dressed up gorgeously sat on the main seats. They were the protagonists of today's banquet.

One by one, the nobles came forward to introduce themselves and talk about their talents in the hope of being noticed by the princess and marrying her.

At this time, a young man with brown hair said to one of the princesses seriously and sincerely:
"If you choose me as your husband, your life will remain rich, and I will protect you day and night..."

"Protect?"

Unfortunately, before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by someone.

"Just because you're as tall as a goblin?" A tall blond young man sneered.

This sentence immediately caused collective laughter from the surrounding nobles.

Any words related to goblins were considered the most insulting. The boy's face turned red and white. Just as he was about to leave with the humiliation in his arms, the mocking voice came again.
