CH 305

The magic tower is under attack. At first, Lin An is not worried about the defensive ability of the magic tower, at least it will not be breached in a short time.

However, the people outside had managed to destroy several cannons.

Lin An got out of bed silently, put on his clothes and picked up the mask, and the system quickly woke up Xi Ning when it saw something was wrong.

Xi Ning opened his eyes in a daze, he saw Lin An putting on a mask and was preparing to go out.

“Where are you going?” Xi Ning sat up with his hands propped up, rubbing his eyes, “It’s so late.”

Xi Ning woke up at this time, Lin An movement was slightly stiff, took off his mask, went up to hug him and kissed him, “I need to go and take care of something.”

“What are you dealing with…… you want to go out?” Xi Ning’s drowsiness disappeared, and he grabbed Lin An’s hand nervously, “No, it’s too dangerous.”

Xi Ning was worried about him subconsciously. Lin An’s expression softened, and he comforted him, “I’ll be fine.”

Xi Ning still refused him to go. He didn’t know what was going on outside, and thought that the magic tower was about to be breached, so he hugged Lin An’s waist tightly, “No, I’ll go with you.”

As he spoke, he lifted the quilt and wanted to get out of bed to get his coat. He didn’t know what was going on with Qiu Nian, but if the head of the mercenary group was outside, and he was protecting Lin An, the head of the mercenary group would definitely not do anything.

Lin An restrained his movements, and said softly, “Don’t worry, just wait for me to come back.”

Before Xi Ning had the chance to speak, the next moment his sight went dark, and it was Lin An who cast a spell on him.

Xi Ning was still frowning even when he was unconscious. Lin An smoothed his brows with his fingertips, and gently placed him on the bed, covering him with the quilt.

He didn’t use much spiritual energy on the spell. When Xi Ning woke up, it should be exactly tomorrow morning. After Lin An finished all these, he left the bedroom without hesitation.

The people outside the tower gathered in one place. Lin An entered the woods from behind and circled around, approaching the crowd quietly.

He sneaked into the dark to observe for a while, and soon found clues of what’s happening.

Most of the mercenaries had their weapons confiscated and were tied up, the guards left by Ferro were missing, and Qiu Nian and others at the edge of the forest were still destroying the cannons.

The head of the mercenary group was lying under a tree and had lost consciousness. There were guards around him, so he should be fine for the time being.

Seeing the method Qiu Nian used, Lin An remained expressionless. He held the short knife and approached the person who was behind him, and cut his throat cleanly.

However, Qiu Nian had a keen intuition. He accidentally turned his head to look, and found that the person who was originally in that direction had disappeared.

Although they seem to be a team formed by people of similar strength, they actually obey Qiu Nian’s orders. They dare not go west if Qiu Nian tells them to go east.

Qiu Nian’s expression darkened, “Where are the people over there?”

When Lin An was discovered, he was planning to rescue the mercenaries in the rear, but unfortunately there were too many guards, and he was quickly besieged by Qiu Nian’s men.

The attack on the canons was forced to stop. The mercenary standing at the edge of the forest looked at the chaos behind them, and quietly moved towards the direction of the head of the mercenary group, trying to rescue him.

His weapon was confiscated, and he only had an ordinary shield in his hand. He could only gather his fighting spirit in his hand, and prepared to sneak attack the people around the head of the mercenary group.

Before the mercenary could get close to the head of the mercenary group, someone held his head with both hands from behind, twisted it in the opposite direction, and Qiu Nian appeared from behind him.

“Keep an eye on him, and kill him if necessary.” Qiu Nian’s expression was not very good, and he walked towards Lin An after ordering.

The sight in the woods was very dark, Lin An was almost completely hidden in the darkness with his black clothes, and it was difficult for the other party to attack him in this dense forest. He was able to come and go freely at first, and injured several people.

The restrained mercenaries still needed to be guarded, and there were no extra people to deal with Lin An. But after Qiu Nian came, Lin An gradually fell into a disadvantage.

The scorching battle continued in the middle of the night. In the end, Lin An killed four opponents, clutched his injured arm, and fled from the other side.

Someone wanted to chase after him, but Qiu Nian raised his hand to stop him, and shook off the blood on the dagger, the tip of the blade was glowing purple, “No need.”

He looked around and said, “Clean up here first, and rest before continuing.”

When Xi Ning woke up, it was just dawn. He stayed there for two seconds, lifted the quilt and got up to see that Lin An was not in the bedroom.
