Mythic Card Master: Start with a Knight

"Stand still."

The green light changed suddenly, and Chu Ming felt as if he was in a green passage, and he was gliding towards the distance at a high speed.

Half an hour later, the speed of the green light became slower and slower, and some noisy voices came from outside the green light ball.

"Drink, have another drink!"

"Hahaha... fill me up."

Chu Ming's heart skipped a beat.

"Is this here?"

A few seconds later, the green light gradually dissipated, and he and Green Lake appeared in a deserted alley.

"Master Ren, we have arrived in the small town of Steen, what should we do next?"

Green Lake looked at Chu Ming and blinked.

"You come with me."

Chu Ming took off the Yinbai clan emblem and held it in his hand.

Suddenly a dark guidance appeared in his heart, he walked out of the alley and walked towards the direction guided by the clan emblem.

Ten minutes later, the two walked through a street with few pedestrians and came to the gate of a manor.

Looking into the manor, it was extremely dark everywhere, only the villa in the middle was lit with orange lights, it looked like a normal rich man's manor.

On the surface, this manor was built by a merchant from the city of Sauron after returning to his hometown, but it was actually a secret stronghold of the Brick family, a stronghold for monitoring the movements of the royal family.

The establishment of this stronghold was not a temporary idea. It has been here for decades and is completely integrated into the town.

"Sure enough, the family is not without ideas about the royal family."

Judging from the establishment of this secret stronghold, the family has also made a lot of preparations in secret.

Thoughts flashed in Chu Ming's mind, and he knocked lightly on the gate of the manor.

Not long after, an old butler hurried out under the leadership of a servant.

The old man wiped the sweat from his forehead, and asked Chu Ming respectfully outside the door: "Excuse me, sir, what can you do?"

Chu Ming smiled slightly, revealing the silver-white family emblem on his hand without any trace.

"I am a guest of your master Nelson, and I accept his invitation to be a guest."

Out of the corner of his eye, the old housekeeper caught a glimpse of the dazzling family emblem on Chu Ming's hand, and he was slightly shocked.

"Sir, please come in, the master has been waiting for a long time."

As the old man's voice fell, the servant hurriedly opened the door and bowed to invite him in.

"Thank you."

Chu Ming and Lu Hu followed the old housekeeper into the mansion.

After the gate was urgent, the old butler turned his head and said respectfully: "You should be Lord Ren, Lord Jerome and the others have been waiting for you inside for a long time."

"Please take me there."

"My lord, you are welcome, this is my duty."

The old butler led Chu Ming and the two into a corridor. They went straight down the stairs and came to a wooden door in the basement.

"My lord, I cannot go any further."

The old housekeeper bowed respectfully and left the basement door,

After the old man left completely, Chu Ming opened the wooden door of the basement, revealing the familiar silver-white metal wall.

He pressed the silver-white clan emblem against the wall, the magic pattern rippled, and the metal wall made a rumbling sound, and the way was out of the way, revealing the bright silver-white corridor inside.

When the two knights guarding the door saw Chu Ming coming in, they quickly saluted and said, "Master Ren, the clan elders are already waiting for your arrival, please come in."

Chu Ming nodded, and led the green lake to the depths of the corridor, and soon came to a hall.

He glanced inside, the crystal chandelier exuded a soft light, the entire hall was paved with dark brown oily wooden boards, and there was only a conference table and dozens of seats in it.

Beside the conference table, Jerome and several familiar figures of clan elders came into his sight. They were pointing at the royal city structure map on the table and discussing plans.

"Yo, Ryan."

Jerome broke free from his thoughts and greeted Chu Ming who came.

Alireza, the most prestigious elder among the clan elders, saw that after Chu Ming and the two arrived, he smiled kindly: "Ren, and this wizard lady, welcome."

When Green Lake heard the words, there was no surprise on her face. She knew that the identity of a wizard was a disguise given to her by Chu Ming.

She bent slightly and said, "Hello, old sir."

Chu Ming responded to everyone's greetings one by one, came to the conference table, glanced at the map on it, got straight to the point, and asked, "How is the current situation in Wangcheng?"

Jerome explained: "The Royal City has been completely surrounded by strange gray fog, and gray fog monsters will be born from time to time in the gray fog, which seriously threatens the safety of citizens."

"Using security as an excuse, the royal family not only blocked the gates of the city, but also prohibited residents from moving on the streets."

"The people we planted in the royal city do not have the opportunity to move freely, and it is difficult to investigate the situation in the city."

"And it seems that because of the opening of the magic circle in the king's city, they have temporarily lost contact with us."

"The only thing we can confirm at the moment is that no conflict has erupted between the royal family and the family of the evil god, and Pedro's identity does not seem to have been exposed."

Chu Ming nodded thoughtfully, then he suddenly suggested: "In this case, then Green Lake and I will enter the King City to check the situation again."

Albert coughed and said, "The magic circle in the royal city has been opened, and the court mages will supervise the whole city in the magic circle tower. If you want to sneak in, I'm afraid it won't be easy."

"Don't worry, it's a small matter."

Lu Teng's triumphant voice suddenly sounded in Lu Hu's body.

When the people present heard this strange voice, they immediately fell silent. They glanced at the green lake, and their expressions quickly returned to normal, as if they didn't take what happened just now to their hearts.

After all, he is a wizard, so it's normal to be weird.

Chu Ming glanced at the embarrassing Green Lake out of the corner of his eye, and changed the subject: "In short, we will leave the investigation of intelligence to us. Give me the list of spies the family has placed in Wangcheng, and I will go find them myself."

Ten minutes later, at Chu Ming's request, Jerome took him into a quiet room.

After Jerome left, Green Vine apologized in a low voice: "Sister, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said anything."

Green Lake shook his head and said, "It's okay."

Chu Ming smiled and said: "They will only regard you as strange wizards, don't worry about revealing your identity."

Lu Teng still blamed herself a little: "I'm sorry for making my sister a strange person."

Green Lake chuckled, "My sister is a strange person, so is the green vine that is one with me."

Chu Ming shook his head with a smile, and focused his attention on the list in his hand, which not only contained the names and portraits of the spies the family placed in the royal city... but also their contact points, the information was very detailed.

"Green Lake, Green Vine, it's not too late, let's go."

Green Lake came back to his senses and nodded, "Well, please take care of Green Vine."

"Hey, look at me."

The green vine took over the control of her body, she folded her hands together, and green light poured out from the gap between her fingers.

Then she spread her hands, and a blue bird jumped out from inside.

Lu Teng excitedly said: "Ren, come on, come on, let's go."

Chu Ming nodded, and stroked Qingque's forehead with his fingers.

Suddenly his viewing angle vibrated violently and kept shrinking.

His whole body seemed to have shrunk countless times, and fell onto Qingque's back.

Green lake and green vines had been waiting for a long time among the feathers, and they flew to Chu Ming's shoulders and sat securely.

Green Lake asked: "Master Ren, where are we going?"

Chu Ming's perspective circled around the entire quiet room, his eyes swept over their huge bodies, and landed on the door.

"Let's leave Steen Town first, it's hard to tell the direction in the basement."

"Okay."

Green Lake waved his hand, and the blue sparrow was enveloped in green light, and disappeared into the quiet room in the next second.

Over the small town of Steen, a ball of green light suddenly appeared, and the blue sparrow struggled to fly out, looking down at the dimly lit town below.

After Chu Ming identified the direction, he ordered the blue bird to turn into a stream of blue light and flee towards Wangcheng.

After a few minutes passed, they returned to the grove where they had been when they first explored the king's city.

"Lvteng, the blue sparrow is too conspicuous, change the shape."

"no problem."

The green vine tapped and snapped its fingers, and the blue bird was gradually wrapped in black scales, completely blending into the night.

A bit of surprise appeared on Chu Ming's face, "Your spell level seems to have improved."

He still remembered that when they sneaked into the royal city for the first time, it seemed that it was not so easy for the green vine to change the form of the summoned object, and he complained about it.

Lu Teng snorted: "Of course, I can be the world's smartest Lv Teng fairy, it's a trivial matter."

Green Lake chuckled and said: "After the last infiltration trip, Luteng has been inexperienced in spells and felt guilty for being discovered. She has worked hard to practice spells these days."

"Sister, that's not it."

Lu Teng's face was flushed, and she grabbed Lu Hu with claws and claws, scratching her body.

"Hahaha... green vine... don't do this."

The two laughed and fought in mid-air.

Chu Ming smiled, and the envoy Hei Que quickly approached Wangcheng.

It only took a few minutes for them to arrive at the wall of the royal city, but when Chu Ming wanted to approach the wall, a strong sense of peeping came to his heart, prompting him to stop.

"The magic circle in this royal city is really difficult."

Chu Ming frowned, and controlled the black sparrow to land on the grass.

He looked back at Lvteng, who was panting after the fight, and asked, "Lvteng, is there any way for you to escape the detection of the magic circle?"

The green vine flew back to Chu Ming's shoulder, she nodded and pointed to the ground.

"My sister and I tried it. The soil can weaken the perception of the magic circle. About 15 meters underground, the soil can completely isolate the magic circle from detection."

"Hmph, we already guessed that you would want to enter the royal city, so we dug a passage nearby."

"aisle?"

"Look at me."

The green vine tapped and snapped its fingers, and the black sparrow shrank rapidly, turning into a seven-spotted ladybug and flying towards a nearby stone.

Under Chu Ming's gaze, the seven-star ladybug plunged headlong under the stone.

The imaginary collision did not come, they entered a dark passage, and continued to descend.

Green Vine seems to be very proficient in the passage, and she can easily fly in it with only a little light.

"Is this the channel you are talking about?"

Chu Ming looked around, the entire underground passage was three centimeters in diameter, the soil was lumpy, and there were even ants crawling in it, which was more than enough for seven-spotted ladybugs to pass through.

Green Lake said with a smile: "Lvvine spent a day digging this with summoned objects, and I didn't do anything to help."

"No, my sister helped me a lot."

Green Vine wrinkled her nose and retorted while controlling the seven-star ladybug to fly in the winding passage.

Chu Ming didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Anyway, it's really helpful, Green Lake, Green Vine, thank you."

Green Lake said with a serious face: "We must not let the bad guys succeed."

Green Vine nodded, "Knock down the gray mist monster and all the bad guys."

One minute later, Chu Ming's eyes suddenly lit up, and the seven-spotted ladybug flew out from the cracks in the stone bricks and landed on the street lamp.

He observed the surrounding environment - under the street lights, there was a gray mist, and the orange light emitted a halo in the haze, illuminating both sides of the street.

As for the front of the street, one street lamp after another spread to the distance, gray fog surged in places where the street lamps could not illuminate, no light could be seen from the houses and shops, and the whole city was like a dead city.

Chu Ming compared the map of the royal city in his mind, and confirmed that their location was on the main road of the royal city.

Compared with the city gate, the perception of the magic circle here seems to be much weaker, which shows that the attention of the court mage who controls the magic circle is not here.

Chu Ming breathed a sigh of relief. If every place in the city was under surveillance, it would be several times more difficult for him to obtain information than it is now. Maybe his identity would be exposed as soon as he entered the royal city.

"The first contact gathering point is in the underground black market of Gordon's Market, the four major markets in Wangcheng. Let's go and have a look."

He made the seven-star ladybug hide in the darkness, and flew to the market close to the wall of the tall building.

After flying for a while, Green Lake suddenly reminded: "Master Ren, someone is coming."

With a movement of his mind, Chu Ming controlled the seven-star ladybug to fly into the gap in the wall, and lay down motionless.

"Dong dong dong..."

The patrolling knights held torches and paced neatly through the alley.

On the wall that they couldn't notice, a seven-spotted ladybug lay motionless like a stain on the wall.

After the knights left, the seven-star ladybug spread its elytra and continued to fly towards Gordon's Market.

"It's scary, so many people suddenly appear in the alley at night."

Lu Teng patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

Chu Ming smiled and said, "Shouldn't those knights be the ones to be afraid of?"

"After all, there are three invisible people hidden in the alley..."

"I'm not……"

Before Luteng finished speaking, a strange sound suddenly sounded in the distance.

"Roar……"

The beast-like roar came to Chu Ming's ears. He, Lvhu and Lvteng looked at each other, and flew towards the direction of the sound without hesitation.

In the Gordon Bazaar, the streets were dimly illuminated by lights, and a gray fog knight ran wildly and roared on the street. In front of it, several citizens fled in panic, and they would soon be caught up by the gray fog knight.

Chu Ming saw this scene as soon as he came to the market. He frowned, and when he was hesitating whether to make a move, a strong sense of peeping rose from his heart again.

"Did the court mage notice this?"

He hurriedly controlled the seven-star ladybug to hide into the darkness, and observed the situation on the street.

"Roar!"

The Gray Mist Knight seemed to have noticed the inexplicable peeping, and it roared provocatively.

Just waiting for it to be arrogant for a long time, a stream of light flew from the center of the royal city, cut through the night and gray fog, and landed on its head with precision.

The gray fog knight disappeared without even making a scream.

Moreover, the power of this spell seemed to be calculated. After the Gray Mist Knight was eliminated, it disappeared immediately, and even the dust on the street was not disturbed.

"Such a long-distance spell, and the control is so precise."

Chu Ming looked serious, "This spell must have been released by that legendary court mage."

"Will you be noticed if you make a noise... It seems that you have to be more careful."

After the farce ended, Chu Ming slowly looked away.

Just as he was about to leave the spot, he caught a glimpse of a figure hiding in the darkness out of the corner of his eye. That figure seemed to have been alarmed by the farce, and came out to investigate the situation. After the matter was over, he was ready to leave.

"This man... seems to be on the list Uncle Jerome gave me."

Chu Ming's expression moved, and he controlled the seven-star ladybug to follow.
