Why did the lord rebel

Chapter 55 The Right Way to Run

Xia Houyan's bowels are all regretful!
He felt so stupid, really!

He only knew that the "Wind of Desolation" mercenary group had set up guards in the church, but he didn't know that they had also set up a magic alarm next to the safe!

In fact, the principle of this magic alarm is very simple. He saw it the moment the alarm was triggered:

A thin wire is attached to the back of this safe, and the thin wire is connected to an extremely concealed small glass bottle, which is filled with golden magic dust;

Once someone tried to move the safe, the glass bottle would be pulled over, causing the dust in it to spill onto an already drawn magic circle, causing a high-pitched magical beep!
The "Wind of Desolation" mercenary group constructed a simple "magic siren" in such a simple and effective way!
Since the Igor family thought of bypassing the magic lock and directly stealing the safe containing the "Flower of Harvest", there is no reason why the mercenaries of "Wind of Desolation" couldn't think of it!
For a time, the five thieves of the Igor family were still in a daze, and a noise had already rang upstairs.

The clutter of footsteps knocking on boots and the ground resounded through the monastery like thunder.

And the few guards standing guard at the gate of the monastery came faster than the mercenaries who got up from the bed upstairs!

Almost in an instant, several mercenaries have appeared on the stairs of the basement!

After they saw the five silly birds of the Igor family and a "Babylonian fine-grained steel" safe floating in the air, they rushed up with their sabres without any hesitation!
Then, a sharp arrow and a fireball the size of a sandbag slammed into their heads!

——For these evil mercenaries, Archer Chris and Master Laurie will naturally not have the slightest mercy!

"Quick! Run!" Master Laurie, who knew that the situation was not good, shouted hoarsely.

So, under the leadership of Master Laurie and Alice, a group of five quickly ran upstairs along the original road-they had to escape the "Top of Glory Monastery" as soon as possible before the people upstairs arrived!
With only five people, there is no possibility that they can match a large number of well-trained mercenaries!

The safe with the "Flower of Abundance" floated behind them, just like the pet babies bought by the players in the mall in the online game.
When they arrived at the monastery hall on the first floor, there was already a mercenary who was quick enough to arrive at the scene.

However, this weak mercenary did not choose to wait for reinforcements wisely, but charged with a saber and roared!

He rushed towards the master swordsman Alice Comstock!
Alice's "Light of the Sky" was instantly unsheathed, and a bit of cold light from the tip of the sword flew to the throat of the mercenary like a firefly in the long night!
At that moment, the mercenaries were afraid!

When his neck shrank, he wanted to step back;

But a crowbar made of cast iron, soaked in countless blood and turned blood red, blocked his escape!
Lord Lord's crowbar swung the back of his head!

Alice's longsword stabbed him in the throat!
The crowbar and sword tip that were pinched on both sides made a crisp sound in the center of the mercenary's neck!

Alice withdrew her long sword with a swish, and threw a gorgeous bloodline on the painted tile floor of the monastery.

As for Master Laurie on the side, he has completely invested his money!
While controlling the safe with the levitating technique, he took out a magic scroll from his arms, and tragically tore off the fire wax seal on the scroll;
This scroll is one of the few magic scrolls brought back from Adrian's laboratory that records the top treasures of mentor-level magic!

If it weren't for the critical situation and further delays would lead to a wider range of chaos and siege, the junior magister Victor Laurie, who was as thin as an iron rooster, would never come up with this kind of wife, coffin, and account book!
The spell is called "Wellington's Thorns Blockade"!
The "Wellington" in this name refers to the "Wellington Canyon" in the eastern part of the empire. When the half-orcs of the Glorious Federation launched a raid, it was an eighth-order archmage of the empire. With one person, in the Wellington Canyon Using this magic spell, he repeatedly summoned a wall of magical thorns that penetrated the sky and the ground, as hard as gold and iron, and blocked the army of orcs for half a month. Only then did the imperial garrison arrive for the belated support!

And the archmage died tragically under the sword of the half-orc wolf cavalry because of the depletion of magic power, and died for the country!

It is to commemorate the heroic deeds of the archmage and the superb level of magic, the Magic Association specially added the word "Wellington" to the name of this spell as recognition!

Of course, the level of the junior magician Victor Laurie is far worse than that of the archmage, and the effect of the spell recorded by the magic scroll is inevitably weakened;

Therefore, it is naturally impossible to use only this scroll to summon the large-scale magic that filled the entire canyon and could block millions of iron hooves;

But what Master Laurie wanted was to delay the mercenary group upstairs for a while!
As the green plant-based magic light bloomed from the scroll, the original monastery floor tiles were suddenly broken into countless tiles, and in the exposed underground soil, countless dark green magic thorns as thick as arms stretched out!

The madly growing magical thorns filled the front of the monastery hall in an instant, and completely blocked the stairs leading from the upper floor to the hall!

On the other side of the wall of thorns, the scolding of the mercenaries and the muffled sound of some people slashing the thorns with knives suddenly came.

"Run!" Master Laurie hurriedly said, "These thorns won't stop you for too long!"

The lord didn't say a word and ran away.

A group of five rushed out of the door of the monastery, and saw that there were already many people in Yanxi City who heard the strange noise and wanted to watch the excitement.

Suddenly, five mysterious people in black cloaks rushed out of the monastery, and behind them was a safe floating in the air, so there was an uproar in the group of spectators.

Xia Houyan couldn't control this much. He looked left and right and found several old horses tied to the horse stakes at the entrance of the monastery.

He made a quick decision, jumped on the horse, and then recited a fire technique. He stretched out his fingers and burned the rope that tied the horse. His legs were caught in the horse's belly, and he jumped out like an arrow from the string, causing the surrounding passers-by to stagger.
The other four members of the Igor family followed suit, and each stole... um, borrowed a horse, and ran towards the royal horse in the direction outside the city.

Of course, the safe was still floating tightly behind Master Laurie's horse's ass—

I took such a big risk this time, just for the elf plants in the cabinet, and it is impossible to leave this safe behind!
It didn't take long for the five Red Dead Redemptors who stole horses to flee, and an inexplicable scene happened that surprised the onlookers!

The stained glass window on the second floor of the monastery burst from the inside with a bang, and the shiny glass shards scattered into the sky!
Then, a big man in steel armor jumped out of the window, and then smashed a loud noise on the stone brick floor of the street!

From the window on the second floor to the ground, there is a distance of seven or eight meters. The armored man who can quickly land and maintain a half-kneeling posture does not seem to be hurt in the slightest!
Harrison Mustafa, the head of the "Wind of Desolation" mercenary group, raised his head brazenly.

Under the shadow of the helmet, his falcon-like eyes burned with rage!
