I was expelled from the team and was recruited by the demons?

"Where's the waiter in the house?" Eli

walked along the red carpet in the corridor towards the front, only to realize that not only the guards, but also the huge mansion did not even have a single waiter.

Eli had been here at the Duke's Court, at the time of the ball.

At that time, it was quite lively, but now this villa seems to be an empty building for sale, and there is no life in sight.

It's so quiet and terrible, like no one has ever lived here.

If it weren't for the neat and tidy metal armor on both sides of the aisle, I'm afraid Eli would have thought that Duke Wens really planned to sell his house.

"After my father was injured, only my brother remained.

Christine sighed and explained a little helplessly.

"What do you mean...?"

Eli keenly captured the meaning of Christine's words, and his eyes changed subtly.

Could it be... Was Duke Vince assassinated by someone close to him to cause the current situation?"

Christine caught the light in Eli's eyes, nodded silently and continued

, "The waiters and housekeepers in the house are all old people who have worked here for decades,

so both me and my father trust them.

"Because of

this, everyone didn't expect that they would suddenly kill their father. "

I see,"

Eli nodded,

and if that was the case, it was understandable that Duke Wens was wounded.

After all, this person is also one of the strongest people in the Loongson Kingdom on the surface, and if someone can really hurt him with hard power, it will inevitably seem too bizarre.

"Even though my father was wounded, he still got rid of them. "

It's just... The dagger they used to stab my father seemed to have some special poison smeared, so now my father is unconscious, and I think that's why it's for this reason.

Christine sighed, then looked to Eli's side and silently gave a knightly salute.

"I don't know why Father had to let you come, but... Please save him, you are the only person I can ask for now, Mr. Eli. "

I'll do my best—"

Eli reached out to help Christine, and to be honest, after learning about the current situation, he regretted that he didn't bring Flora here.

In the area of healing and saving people, in any case, Flora, who is a healer, is more suitable.

"Smack.

A crunch sound came from behind the two of them, and Eli looked back to find that Elena was placing some sleek silver ingots along the sides of the hallway.

Not only behind Eli, but from the moment they entered the villa, Elena had already placed these things along the aisle, so much so that the sides of the entire aisle shimmered with dazzling silver light.

"Elena?"

Eli raised an eyebrow, giving Elena a quizzed look.

"These things absorb toxins in the air, and according to Master Christine, there may be some not-so-good things left in this place.

Elena smiled as she put down the last silver ingot, and winked at Eli.

Obviously, this was not her true intention.

Eli snapped his eyes and instantly understood what Elena meant.

Others don't know, but he knows Elena's character data very well.

"This is it—"

Christine stopped outside a delicate iron door, then reached out and knocked on the brass ring on the door.

The rhythm of her tapping was staggered, and it was clear that this was a code that she had already negotiated with the people inside, in order to prevent anyone from harming the unconscious Duke of Vince inside.

There was a sound of bolts slicing through the door, and then the heavy iron door was slowly opened by the people inside.

Eli was none other than Christine's elder brother,

Byron Hilton, who was now the deputy head of the Knights of the Holy Wood.

"Mr. Eli—"

Byron greeted Eli,

tiredness written on his usually resolute face.

Obviously, the turmoil in the Duke's Palace during this period of time made the young man in front of him inevitably a little exhausted.

"Lord Byrons.

Eli nodded in response, then turned slightly to the side and saw Duke Vince lying on the cork bed.

Even though the two were far apart, Eli noticed the other man's pale face, and it was clear that the wounds left by the attacker were extremely severe, and the venom used was by no means simple.

At the same time, Duke Wins's current personal data was also revealed to Eli after the system's authentication function was activated.

[Name: Vince Hilton

] [Status: Poisoned

] [Race: Human-Demon Hybrid

] [Class: Knight (Lv.95)] [Second Class: Demon Knight (Lv.170)

] [Title: Pillar of the Nation]

[Attributes: Strength SS; Magic S; Agility S; Physical SS; Spiritual SS; Equipment SS; Summoning E;].

[Note: The pillar of the Longxin Kingdom, the head of the Holy Wood Knights, and the supporter of Iloti Colverkins, the heir to the third throne]

"..."

Eli touched his chin, and then raised his foot and walked towards Duke Wens.

"I'm sorry Mr. Eli, but you should have been here to entertain you, and ended up bringing you to a room like this.

"This place was originally a study for my father's approval documents, but this place is set up with an enchantment to isolate magical power, and the strength of the room itself is high enough.

"For the sake of my father's safety, we have to move him here first.

Byron sat in the chair in front of the bed and covered his head with some weakness.

He basically hasn't slept well in the past few days, and his tense nerves are always maintained, causing his face to look extremely haggard at the moment.

"Well, I'll take a look first.

Eli lifted the curtain that covered the bed, and looked indifferently at the Duke of Vins's stiff face.

Even though the man in front of him was lying on the bed, he still exuded unparalleled power all over his body.

It's just that his muscular chest is now so unobstructed, and the knife left by the previous attacker is right in Vins's heart.

The fact that Vince is still alive now is already a miracle in itself.

"Squeak-"

Christine poked her head out of the door, and when she was sure that no one was following them, she closed the heavy iron door in front of her little by little.

Elena, who had not spoken a word since the moment she entered, was silently leaning against the wall at this time, and there was not a trace of expression fluctuation on her cold face.

She quietly looked at Eli not far away, still playing with the metal ball in her hand.

"Mr. Eli, can you see something?"

"Before my father lost consciousness, he told us to bring you here anyway, and we don't know why, but I think it may have something to do with healing his injuries.

Byron looked up at Eli in front of him and asked anxiously.

"Hmm..."

Eli slowly turned his head to look at Byron in front of him, and then at Christine, who was standing not far away.

At this moment, the expression on his face also became a little playful.

"I should ask you about this.

When he said this, Byron and Christine looked at each other in confusion, apparently failing to understand the meaning of Eli's words.

"Went to great lengths to bring me here, and you still don't want to show your face?"

Eli suddenly pulled out the Chimanra Death on his waist, his movements were extremely fast, and in an instant, he was already in front of Christine, and the blade light in his hand pierced Christine's pupils without reservation.

Even though there is an enchantment that separates magic here, Eli is now able to do so with his physical abilities alone.

"Bell!"

The sound of metal colliding sounded instantly, and Christine's whole person also retreated, and the stabbing sword in her hand also flashed with a cold light.

At this moment, Christine seemed to be a different person.

The look on her face was extremely cold, and the queen of blades was as hot as the queen of blades on weekdays.

"What a gloomy fellow, I hate people like you who manipulate puppets to talk to us, since we've already said hello in the labyrinth, let's be acquaintances.

Eli smiled and spun the Chimanra Death in his hand, and with the other hand, he instantly drew the ice storm and pointed it at Byrons' front door.

“...... You're sharper than I thought, Mr. Eli.

There was a trembling sound coming from Christine's throat, and it sounded hoarse, definitely not Christine's own voice.

Instead, it was more like something was rooted in her throat, with the help of Christine's vocal cords.

"But... Why did you come in when you already saw it?"

looked up at Byrons, who was in the same condition, and even made the same voice as Christine.

"Hmm... Because I'm not as unsightly as you

are, and—"

Eli's pupils darkened at this moment, and his eyes, which had no trace of brilliance, became even colder.

"These two are my friends, you... It's looking for death. "
