"This is like...some kind of curse!" Enzo looked at him, and a glimmer of thought flashed in his eyes.
In his mind, the chip quickly searched for information about runes on the ground. Through comparison, Enzo learned that everything in front of him was indeed very similar to some kind of ancient curse witchcraft.
"Someone used cursed witchcraft to control this body to attack me!"
"And after failure, everything will be destroyed immediately."
Enzo stroked his chin and his eyes flashed slightly.
"If the troubles I encountered before were just some accidents, then the attack tonight would probably be deliberately targeting me."
"It's only one day before Snowhoof City, and this happens right now."
"It seems that this mission is not as simple as you think!" Enzo sighed in his heart, and a little more solemn on his face.
......
The border of Silver Deer Kingdom, Snowhoof City.
In the early morning, the sky in the distance turned white, the sun slowly rose, and a light golden glow sprinkled on the earth, leaving a touch of golden yellow on the ground paved with stone bricks.
Hundreds of guards stood neatly in line in silver-white armor, holding spears.
In front of them were a few nobles in gorgeous clothes, among which the one standing at the front was a thin young man with a handsome face but a pale face.
Not far away, a carriage slowly appeared on the road ahead.
"Here you come." The handsome young man's eyes lit up and he quickly tidied up his collar.
Dias drove the carriage and slowly came to the city gate.
"May I ask, are you the wizard from [Crow Phantom]?" Seeing the carriage stop, the handsome young man quickly stepped forward and asked respectfully.
Enzo pushed open the car door and walked out.
He first shook his wrinkled gray robe, looked at the handsome young man, and said in a low voice, "It's me."
"I have met Lord Wizard." The handsome young man bowed and introduced himself, "I am the Lord of Snow Hoof City Inos. I am ordered by Lord Wizard Orlandon to come to greet you."
"Olanton? Are there any expatriates in the Academy's Snowhoof City?" Enzo nodded slightly and said, "Lead the way."
Inos smiled and waved his hand, the nobles and guards behind him quickly made a pass and welcomed Enzo's carriage into the city gate.
Entering Snowhoof City, Enzo sat in the carriage and looked around.
The economy here looks relatively prosperous, and even the civilians have a rosy complexion. It is just out of fear of the aristocratic class that the crowd kneels down wherever the carriage goes.
After crossing a main road, Enzo came to a castle.
"Lord Orlandon has specially prepared a banquet for you, please come with me." Inos stood respectfully beside the carriage, stretched out an arm, and signaled Enzo to enter the castle.
"Welcome to you, my friend."
Following Enos into the castle, Enzo saw a figure walking towards him.
"I am Orlandon, the escort apprentice of the wizard in the Academy's Snowhoof City."
Orlandon smiled and introduced himself, wearing a white robe, he was a little bloated, but he emitted a magical fluctuation of a third-level wizard apprentice.
"Hello, Senior Orlandon." Enzo bowed gently.
The status between wizards and apprentices is equal. Although there is still a level gap between Enzo and Orlandon, the former is still very young and has infinite possibilities in the future. Although the latter is still middle-aged, his actual age is nearly one hundred years old.
"Have you lost the possibility of being promoted to a formal wizard and was sent to the secular world by the academy?"
Enzo shook his head secretly. From Orlandon, he could feel a decadent aura, and the magic fluctuation of a level 3 apprentice was not very strong.
"I've prepared a banquet for you, come with me." Orlandon patted Enzo on the shoulder, showing his kindness.
Enzo followed Orlandon all the way to the center of the castle.
In the magnificent hall, a huge crystal lamp was hanging upside down at the top, and a long table covered with red cloth was filled with silver plates. The mellow fragrance of red wine was filled with the air.
"Come here, sit here." Orlandon sat in the main seat, and arranged Enzo next to him with a passionate look on his face.
After the two wizards and apprentices sat down, the nobles in the hall pulled out their seats. Inos clapped his palms, and the surrounding minstrels immediately plucked the harp and made a melodious music, and the banquet officially began.
"How long has Senior Orlandon been stationed in Snowhoof City?" Enzo asked casually while he was refreshing.
"Ha, twenty years have passed in a flash." Orlandon drank a sip of the red wine in his glass and sighed, ": I have been away from [Crow Phantom] for so long, and now when I recall my experience in studying, I still feel a little missed!"
"Twenty years? I have been stationed in Xuetu City for so long. I believe my senior has experienced more than one lord." Enzo said curiously.
Orlandon suddenly paused, his face flashed with a hint of unnaturalness, and then he returned to normal, and he chuckled and said, "From the beginning of guarding Snow Feather City, I have experienced three city lords."
"Look at how old Enos is, how long has he been taking over as the lord?" Enzo asked with his eyes flashing.
"To be honest, I have only been three months since I took over the lord's position." Inos quickly replied, a hint of bitterness appeared on his face, and sighed, ": My father is in his prime, but he died unexpectedly, so I can only take over the lord's position."
"Oh? The old city lord just passed away?" Enzo raised his eyebrows and said, "Do you don't have a single brother or sister?"
"Actually, I have an older brother, but..." As if I remembered some bad memories, Enos looked ugly. He was about to continue talking, but was interrupted by Orlandon.
"Don't mention the messy things again!" Orlandon warned and scolded, "I hate the intrigue between you mortals the most, it's simply disgusting!"
"Yes, sir." Inos was startled and quickly shut his mouth.
"Ha, don't mind, Enzo." Orlandon turned his head and said gently, ": It's all mortal calculations, and the means of fighting for power and profit are dirty, so don't pay attention to them."
Enzo's heart moved, but his face remained silent.
"Since that's the case, let's change the topic." He smiled and did not continue to ask.
"Haha, okay, let's talk about the college." Orlandon laughed and began to talk about some interesting things about his school days. Enzo nodded frequently and interjected a sentence or two from time to time.
Amid the laughter, the banquet was coming to an end.
