On the Seven Towers

At 3 pm on the second day, Xiao Chen and Li Jia left the Magic Association and went to their residence. Tasya, Feng Qi and two other members also went to participate in the first activity of the reading club. After the two carriages they were riding left one after another. Six figures appeared from behind a big tree not far away.

The leader was Sancho who had been staring at Xiao Chen and his party for a long time. The other was a young man in a gray robe, Sancho's confidant Olva. The other two were also good players he brought from the Montenegro branch. The last two were locals sent to Sancho by Prato. Since Yepes got angry last time, Macola and Prato had to give Sancho enough support.

"Sir Sancho, you see, I'm right. Xiao Chen seems to be busy doing something with his wizard friends these days and has no time to take care of that woman. They went home separately yesterday and today."

"She hasn't come out yet." Sancho said, "Is there really no way to get into the Magic Association?"

"Sir, don't do this." One of Prato's subordinates said, "The warning from the Saint of Time not to allow the Shadow Group to get involved in the Magic Association is not a joke. A few years ago, in order to track down a suspicious wild wizard, all of us who infiltrated the Magic Association were killed silently. One high-level assassin and five mid-level assassins died in our branch. Sir Yepes' predecessor was transferred because of this incident."

"Yes. Sir, she will come out eventually. Let's wait until she comes out before we take action."

Sancho knew that no matter how powerful the Temple of Nature was, it had to respect the will of a saint. He snorted coldly and said, "Have you found out her identity?"

"She is a low-level warrior. Xiao Chen always brings her with him when he comes to the Magic Association. We guess she may be someone Xiao Chen cares about and trusts very much." Orva said.

"What does a low-level warrior do in the Mage Tower every day?" Sancho stroked his beard and pondered.

"Maybe Xiao Chen's favorite concubine." One person said.

"Maybe she is a tool Xiao Chen uses to please other mages? After all, she is a very beautiful woman. This also explains why she didn't act with Xiao Chen. Maybe she was with someone else at this time." Another person said.

Orva shook his head and said, "I disagree. In the past half month, I have never seen them being too close. She can't be a tool for Xiao Chen to win over others. She has never stayed outside. I guess she may be a very good friend or an important partner of Xiao Chen. Such people are most worth interrogating."

"Okay, it's meaningless to guess here. We have wasted half a month. We must make a breakthrough, otherwise we can't explain to Lord Yepes." Sancho said seriously, "You go and arrange it. Although the opponent is a low-level warrior, this is the capital, and everything must be done neatly, understand?"

Sancho took out a scroll and handed it to Orva, saying, "Forget the scroll. For this kind of warrior with average mental power, it can forcibly erase the memory of today."

"Yes. Don't worry, sir." Orva agreed.

Ye Zi finished reading the information as usual today and played with Javier for a while.

When they were about to leave, Javier asked, "Sister Ye Zi, I have a question about the model structure. I want to ask Teacher Xiao Chen today."

"Today, he has left the Magic Association. He and several magicians had a party at home." Ye Zi said.

"Party? Can I go?" Javier asked.

"Well... As a prince, you can't run around, right? And if you suddenly go to the party, others will see that the prince is here. Can you still have fun?" Ye Zi has become much more familiar with him, and she doesn't have too many scruples when talking to him.

"It doesn't matter, Sister Mei will protect me. And most people in the Mage Tower don't know who I am."

"You are a prince!" Ye Zi said strangely.

"What's wrong with the prince? Many of them don't even know my father, how can they know me? I'm just an inconspicuous child."

Ye Zi suddenly realized that he was not facing Prince Harry of the information age, but a prince of the Middle Ages. In this era, most people didn't even know the king's name, let alone his appearance.

"Is that so? Should we ask Miss Mei for her opinion? But where is she?"

"It's okay. She always shows up suddenly."

When Ye Zi and Javier arrived at the entrance of the Magic Association, an inconspicuous black carriage was already waiting there. Mei poked her head out of the carriage and said, "Little Javier, I heard that you are going to go somewhere else."

"Yes, I want to attend Teacher Xiao Chen's party. Sister Mei, is that okay?"

"Okay, it sounds interesting. I'm not your mother, who wants to hide you in the quilt all day long." She smiled at Ye Zi, "Then let's go."

Ye Zi couldn't find a reason to refuse, so he had to get on the carriage with Javier.

On the way from the Magic Association to the office, you will pass by an abandoned riverside mansion. This house belongs to a marquis who was in the empire during the war two years ago. After the marquis himself was hanged by the king, the whole family was demoted to slaves, and the house was abandoned.

Outside the side door of the house, across the road is a small pier. When people lived in the house in the past, fishermen would deliver fresh fish and shrimp every morning.

When Ye Zi's carriage arrived here, someone piled some boxes and haystacks on the side of the dock, as if a ship had temporarily unloaded its cargo here. These boxes blocked the road so that only one car could pass through, and the driver naturally slowed down to avoid the debris from hitting the car.

Suddenly, two stacked boxes in front fell down, blocking the road ahead. The two horses pulling the carriage were frightened and tried to dodge from the left and right, making it difficult to control the carriage. The driver on the driving seat shouted loudly, bursting with fighting spirit, and tried to pull the horse's head hard. At this time, several small balls flew from all sides, exploding on the car and the ground, and a large amount of green fog exploded. The driver, who was a mid-level warrior, did not hold on for a moment and fainted with the horse.

"There is actually a mid-level warrior driving the car? Who is this woman?" Orva frowned, feeling a little worried.

Orva himself was an assassin who had just reached a high level. His four subordinates were all mid-level warriors and assassins. It was a waste of talent to capture and interrogate a low-level warrior, but he felt a little uneasy at this moment.

However, things had come to this point, and there was no turning back. No matter who she was, she had to be interrogated. Anyway, they were not prepared to harm her life, so they just had to erase the memories of these people.

When the smoke cleared and there was no movement in the carriage, Orva looked at the window covered by the curtain and said, "Be careful, go and catch that woman!"
