Wizard starting from shoeing donkeys

Chapter 1528: Chapter 526: The Death

”Who?”

The four people looked around, their expressions shocked!

In the next moment, amidst the horrified expressions of the Imperial Marquis O’Lence and two other Crystallization Wizards.

A strange hand suddenly appeared behind the armored knight from an originally empty spot!

The armored knight instantly felt his hair stand on end, his heart alarmed.

He seemed to sense a cold gaze from behind him, like that of some top-level predator, and the horrified looks from the three around him confirmed this feeling.

However, just as he tried to move his body to evade, a large hand like an iron clamp suddenly gripped his neck from behind. The plate armor collar twisted and deformed as if made of fragile cardboard.

”Creak!”

As the plate armor collar twisted and deformed.

He suddenly felt a sharp pain from his neck, followed by his vision tilting ninety degrees, then gradually blurring, and finally plunging into darkness.

”Don’t move, whoever moves dies,” Rein said as he stepped out as if from another space.

The Imperial Marquis O’Lence and the other two Crystallization Wizards intended to scatter and escape, but upon hearing Rein’s words, they froze in place.

After all, Rein had just instantly killed a Titled Knight upon his entrance, which was truly terrifying!

Rein casually tossed the knight with the broken neck to the ground.

At this moment, a Crystallization Wizard who had just said he wanted to collect the barbarian girl seemed to hold a fluke mindset, instantly conjuring three rapidly spinning earth-yellow shields around himself, then dashed towards the window like an arrow shot from a bow, while pulling something from his coat.

But in the next moment, his eyes widened!

Because Rein, who was supposed to be behind him, somehow appeared in front of the window; his run directly targeted Rein.

This scene made his heart feel frozen!

Just as he appeared ruthless, intending to pull out a scroll for a desperate fight.

”Slurp!”

A fingertip emitting a dark silver light instantly penetrated the earth-yellow shield on him, piercing and pointing at the Crystallization Wizard’s forehead.

In the next moment, all his actions froze!

And the other two earth-yellow shields around him, losing their energy support, instantly turned into two patches of fine sand, falling to the ground, while his body fell straight back, landing heavily with a ”thud,” occasionally twitching slightly...

Imperial Marquis O’Lence and another Crystallization Wizard watched this scene, cold sweat streaming down their foreheads.

A Crystallization Wizard’s Third Level Talent protective witchcraft couldn’t even withstand a single move before being killed?

How could this be fought?

What exactly was Rein’s near-teleportation ability?

How could they escape?

Various random thoughts emerged in the two’s minds!

Although both had some privately stored witch artifacts and scrolls, in a situation where strength significantly differed, these were meaningless, their companion just demonstrated this perfectly!

”Rein... Lord Rein, I think there might be some misunderstanding between us, and this wasn’t my intention, it was Duke Drum, the whole thing was his...”

Imperial Marquis O’Lence hurriedly explained, but was interrupted by Rein with a wave of his hand.

”Imperial Marquis O’Lence, I arrived in the Imperial City this morning. Why do you think the Drum family didn’t inform you of my return?” Rein didn’t rush to act, instead calmly asked, looking at the forcefully composed O’Lence.

Rein’s words, like an arrow, shot into Imperial Marquis O’Lence’s heart.

”It should... it should be the Drum family didn’t have time to... tell me.” Imperial Marquis O’Lence’s face went pale, yet he still believed the Drum family was allied with his O’Lence family.

”Hehe, in fact, the Empire’s upper echelons knew last night that Prince Menia and I were already on our way back.” Rein smiled slightly, speaking.

This sentence became the final straw that broke the Imperial Marquis O’Lence’s composure!

”What!” Marquis O’Lence looked lost, unable to believe.

In an instant, as an old line noble, he understood the cause and effect.

No wonder...

No wonder he never awaited the Drum family’s team!

He, or rather, the entire O’Lence family, had already been abandoned by Duke Drum the moment they learned Rein had returned.

”Wait, Lord Rein, you wouldn’t want to get involved in unnecessary trouble by killing me, right?” Faced with the life and death crisis of Rein slowly approaching, Imperial Marquis O’Lence panicked.

”Oh? What trouble?”

Rein leisurely looked at him, seemingly saying, ’Tell me, I’ll watch your performance.’

”Lord Rein, an Earl and above are advanced nobles of the Empire, even if they breach Empire law, they must be reported to the Elder Council for judgment and ruling. Killing an Imperial Marquis would certainly cause substantial trouble.”

”I am willing to give you all the O’Lence family’s wealth, and I swear the O’Lence family will never retaliate.”

”No need, the trouble you mentioned doesn’t seem to be trouble to me.” Rein shook his head, speaking.

”So, Imperial Marquis O’Lence, farewell!”

”Wait, I’m willing...” Marquis O’Lence hastily exclaimed, attempting to say more.

But in the next instant.

The Hardened Essence Gold in Rein’s hand instantly transformed into a long thrusting sword, plunging into the pleading Imperial Marquis O’Lence’s forehead!
