Chapter 52

The battle was over?

Noticing that the energy fluctuation outside the cell stopped, Monroe was shocked and pricked up his ears to listen to the sound outside.

Locke Capet’s men must have been killed by Sir Wesley!

Thinking of this, Monroe got excited. He seemed to have seen the Brandon family welcome him out.

However, when hearing the giggling sound from the cell, a guard came in from the outside and knocked on the door with a weapon in his hand. “What are you excited about? Stay here quietly!”

Hearing the guard’s reproach, Monroe’s face froze and immediately found that something was wrong. Sir Wesley won. Shouldn’t these people look flustered and fearful? Why did he still act as nothing had happened?

A bad feeling suddenly surged up in his heart.

“Young man…” Monroe waved his hand and stopped the guard who was about to go out. He turned his head and looked at the small window of the cell. “What’s going on outside?”

The guard glanced at Monroe. Although he was a little impatient, he was in a good mood. So he said, “The invaders have been eliminated by the lord. You should be more obedient.”

After saying that, the guard went out.

Monroe stood there stiffly as if he hadn’t recovered his spirit from the news.

The fact that the invaders were eliminated meant that… Sir Wesley was defeated!

A level-3 mage was eliminated easily?

Monroe’s face turned pale all of a sudden, and his face, which had been so excited and red, turned pale all of a sudden. He slumped to the ground with despair in his eyes.

Would he spend the rest of his life in prison?

Thinking of this possibility, Monroe couldn’t help but shiver. No! It was not easy for him to practice into the level-2 mage. How could he be defeated like this!

‘I must find a way to get out!’

Yes, since Locke Capet had saved his life, it meant that he was still valuable.

Although he had been locked up in prison, he also found that except for Locke and the people around him, Lister had no strong fighting strength at all. The strongest one was only a knight of level 2.

For example, these guards were basically ordinary people. Maybe… He could turn to Locke Capet’s side.

Yes, he chose to side with Locke Capet!

In this short minute, he was in a mood like a roller coaster. In the end, he had already had the will to submit.

“Help! I want to see Sir Capet!”

After leaving Lister, Ferguson ran all the way to Bone City at the fastest speed.

In Treasure Pavilion, Rosaline’s face changed when she heard that Ferguson had come back. Did Ferguson still arrive a little late? Did Locke and the others already come across the danger?

Raphael, who was standing behind her, also sighed. She thought that Locke and the others might be dead, while Lister might be over.

Ferguson bowed to Rosaline after he came in.

Rosaline waved her hand to hint Ferguson to get up and asked in a low voice, “Didn’t I ask you to protect Locke from leaving? Why are you here?”

“Dear Miss Grace, Lister is not in danger now. All the members of the Brandon family have been killed.”

Ferguson reported, lowering his head.

Rosaline was stunned at first, and then she stared at Ferguson with her beautiful eyes wide open. She couldn’t believe what she just heard. All the members of the Brandon family were dead? There was a level-3 mage and more than 10 level-2 practitioners!

If Ferguson didn’t look very normal now, she would doubt if Ferguson was insane.

Raphael, who was standing behind Rosaline, was also shocked, losing in astonishment.

“Tell me everything you know.”

After all, she was the daughter of a count and had seen a lot of big scenes. Rosaline soon came to herself.

Ferguson told her everything he had seen in Lister. When it came to fun and tension, his eyes would still show a strong shock and fear.

Defeating a level-3 mage easily? Locke used beyond the level-4 magic? And a strong man who blocked beyond the level-4 magic power? Or at least a healer of level 3?

Rosaline felt everything was impossible.

If she didn’t have absolute trust in Ferguson, she would think that all this was fake.

“She can defeat a level-3 mage. This girl is at least a level-4 practitioner or even a level- 5 practitioner!”

Rosaline took a deep breath and tried her best to suppress the shock in her heart, but her voice was still trembling uncontrollably. It was hard to imagine that the girl named “Athena” would be such a powerful practitioner!

The man holding the hammer was at least a strong man of level 4, and there was also a healer of level 3… This power was almost omnipotent in the county town. Besides, it was just her guess. Maybe they were more powerful!

From now on, Locke?Capet was the highest VIP. Even if she used all the resources of Treasure Pavilion, she must have a good relationship with Locke Capet!

Rosaline was a little excited. Perhaps, with the help of Locke, the Grace family would become a real big family! This was an unprecedented opportunity for the Grace family!

She wanted to pay a visit to Lister in person, but she had to go back to the county town because Scilar Magic Academy was about to begin. Besides, she had to personally report this thing to her father, Count Grace.

Lister.

The castle was completely unharmed under the protection of Hephaestus, but the training ground in front of the castle was miserable. The originally flat training ground had now become a big pit.

Fortunately, there were not many houses in front of the castle, so there were not many places damaged during the battle.

The Brandon family still treated Locke as a pushover and provoked him again and again.

Locke’s eyes flashed with coldness as he watched the reconstruction work under the castle. Now that they dared to make trouble for him, they were ready to pay the price!

He remembered that there seemed to be a lot of good things in the Brandon family’s territory. According to the law of the Empire, it was not allowed to encroach on each other’s territory, but the Brandon family took the initiative. He just fought back.

But Locke’s force was still too weak.

After the fight, Locke suddenly realized something. Although his strength was rapidly increasing and he had summoned a lot of gods, the other people’s strength was still too weak.

At present, Kotter was only the level-2 knight, Kerton and the other knights were only the level-1 knights. The others were only a little better than the ordinary people, not even the practitioners.

Even the mage of level 3 would need him to take action. In the future, their enemies would only become stronger and stronger. He and the gods couldn’t always fight with enemies.

Just as Locke was thinking about how to establish and expand his force, a guard came up and reported, “My lord, the mage Monroe who was imprisoned before wants to see you.”

Monroe? Locke suddenly remembered that he was still holding a mage, so he said to the guard, “Bring him here.”

Now he was worried about how to develop his own power. If the mage was sensible, he might be useful.

In a short while, under the escort of the guards, Monroe arrived at the pier wall.
