Chapter 42 Kill Joseph!
Following Yihua's order, the fragile Anna and Jack quickly retreated.
A blue arrow and sharp dagger appeared in front of the two of them, and suddenly attacked Joseph.
At this time, Joseph had not yet reacted, and looked at the witchcraft attacking him with an expression of disbelief.
A red light flashed on Joseph's body, and all the witchcraft that attacked Joseph was blocked.
At the same time, an emerald ring on Joseph's hand shattered and fell to the ground.
Realizing that he was being attacked, Joseph was filled with shock and anger. He cursed Yihua and others for not following common sense. He rolled and crawled towards the door, saying harsh words:
"You crazy people! My father is a third-class wizard, dare to attack me? You will all die when he comes back!"
Hearing the loud noise in the house, the guards waiting in the hall outside the door were frightened and rushed into the living room.
"Hurry and protect Master Joseph!"
Seeing the group of wizards launching attacks in front of him, the leading knight was shocked and rushed forward.
However, how could a great knight and several formal knights be the opponent of a group of second-rate wizards.
Reg and Ural, whose physiques were comparable to those of top knights, rushed forward quickly. In just one encounter, two or three formal knight-level guards fell under their swords.
Yihua ignored the guards around him and stared at Joseph not far away. He used the speed of a great knight to quickly close the distance with Joseph.
As the captain of the guard, the great knight used Life Explosion and tried to block it. Unexpectedly, Yihua had no intention of evading it.
He slashed at Yihua with his sword, but it did not cause any damage. Instead, he was bounced off balance by the repulsive force from the life armor emerging from Yihua's body.
The guard captain managed to stabilize his body. At the same time, Reg, Ural and other apprentices also eliminated several knights present and blocked the guard captain who was trying to pursue Yihua.
With the help of the time the guards desperately bought for him, Joseph ran to the door of the living room, only one step away from walking out of the door.
With a look of ecstasy on his face, Joseph stretched out his hand and tried to push open the half-open door, thinking to himself:
"You can escape soon -"
Bang!
This thought was interrupted by the sudden dagger.
Joseph's palm was nailed to the wall by the dagger that suddenly flew out. He felt the severe pain in his palm, and a howl like a slaughtering pig sounded from Joseph's mouth.
"Father! Come and save me."
Joseph looked frightened and prayed desperately in his heart while gritting his teeth and trying to pull out the dagger nailed to his hand.
Just as Joseph had just pulled out the dagger, before he could escape.
Yihua, who had already walked up to Joseph, picked up a long sword from the ground, rushed forward, and stabbed Joseph's waist and abdomen with the sword.
He nailed Joseph to the wall without killing him on the spot.
Blood overflowed from Joseph's mouth. He looked at the death-like Yihua in front of him and prayed in extreme panic:
"I will give you whatever you want. Please let me go!"
"Tell me! Where is the treasure house of the City Lord's Mansion? ?"
As soon as he said this, a look of hesitation flashed across Joseph's face.
Seeing that Joseph was not honest, Yihua snorted coldly.
He picked up a long sword again and pierced Joseph's shoulder. The tip of the sword penetrated Joseph's body and sank into the wall.
Feeling the severe pain, Joseph could no longer resist. His face turned pale and he begged for mercy:
"Ah! I said it!"
Afterwards, under Yihua's questioning.
Joseph told Yihua the location of the treasure house of the City Lord's Mansion and the general defense situation.
Now that time is running out, Yihua has no time to verify the authenticity.
At this time, Anna's witchcraft happened to knock the knight present to the ground, and Reg and Ural took the opportunity to step forward.
Poof!
The two of them took advantage of the opportunity before the captain of the knight's guard got up, and stabbed his sword into his body. Under the murderous gazes of the two men, the captain of the guard widened his eyes angrily, and died with hatred.
Seeing that the battle was over, Yihua took a deep breath and said to the apprentices present:
"You hurry up and go to the warehouse and bring all the scrolls inside!"
"I'll go to the treasure house to take a look first."
Now. Time was running out, although several apprentices had some objections to Yihua's behavior of going to the treasure house alone.
But to be able to become a second-class apprentice, several people present are more rational than emotional, and they can clearly distinguish what is important and what is important.
The few of them nodded to Yi Hua's instructions without much hesitation, and then ran out of the living room and towards the warehouse.
Among them, Anna, who had a cooperative relationship with Yihua, paused briefly before leaving and gave Yihua some instructions.
"Be safe."
"Yeah."
Yihua responded.
After everyone left, Yihua turned to look at Joseph who was still nailed to the wall.
Seeing the almost unconcealable fear and hatred in Joseph's eyes, Yihua simply killed him with a sword.
Apart from his tenacious vitality, Joseph never showed the strength that a great knight should have from beginning to end.
Considering the sins he carried, this method of death was considered an advantage for him.
Feeling that the merit value had increased by three points, Yihua knew that he had not made a mistake in killing.
——
"Ah!"
Yi Hua's sword fell to the last person present, a formal knight-level guard. He turned back and glanced at the four corpses of the guards on the ground.
Seeing that there were no more guards to stop him, Yi Hua gasped slightly and slashed at the lock of the thick and sturdy door in front of him with his sword.
Clang!
Sparks flew everywhere, and a buzzing sound of metal colliding came from the door lock. Yihua didn't pause and hit the door lock one after another.
Finally, on the eighth slash, the door lock fell to the ground, and Yihua opened the door and walked into the house.
What comes into view is a safe made of silver-white stainless steel. Each safe is hung with a heavy iron lock as big as a palm.
This is also an anti-theft method. Under normal circumstances, just opening two or three safes will take enough time for the guards to arrive.
Because the safes were airtight, Yihua didn't know what was locked in each room.
Time was running out, Yi Hua randomly selected a safe, picked up the hilt of the cross sword, and smashed the iron lock.
Click -
the iron lock shattered. Yihua opened the safe and looked inside.
In the huge safe, there was only a square-inch delicate wooden box.
Yihua took out the wooden box and opened it, only to see a leaf with clear veins lying on the delicate purple silk, like a leaf made of gold.
"Golden leaves!"
Yihua's pupils shrank, and after confirming the authenticity, he quickly put it in his arms.
Golden leaves are treasures that can enhance a wizard's spiritual power and speed up the concentration of runes. Just one leaf is worth dozens of witch crystals, and they are extremely valuable.
Mentor Simon had previously given Rey a piece, which made Yihua covetous for a long time.
After that, Yihua opened four more safes one after another.
Each harvested a piece of wood that contained strong vitality and was the size of a fingertip.
A total of more than fifty witch crystals and another golden leaf.
Yi Hua planned to continue to open the lock, but his chest felt slightly hot. He took out a wooden sign from his arms, and the wooden sign flashed red.
