He sneaked into the study quietly behind a maid who brought refreshments, avoiding being discovered by pushing the door open.

The interior of the study room is simple and simple, with several shelves of books on display. A thin old man about 60 years old is sitting at the desk reading something, frowning from time to time in thought, and tapping his fingertips on the table.

【211】

Didn't expect that the old duke's life level is not low? Stronger than the Chief of Guards!

If you don't recruit undead apostles and skeleton warriors, you may not be able to suppress him.

Fortunately, Lin Chu didn't come to fight.

He poured magic power into the communication badge, established contact with Kelia, and informed the other party that he had found the old duke.

Then he threw the badge on the ground, turned around and hid in the corner.

"kindness?"

The old prince's senses were very keen, he heard the sound of something falling to the ground, but he only saw a communication badge when he heard the reputation.

"Long time no see, Uncle Bertlem, it's me, Clea Albert."

Clea's voice came from the badge.

"His Royal Highness?!"

The old prince looked surprised, and quickly picked up the communication badge on the ground: "Where are you now? Are you okay?"

"Thank you for your concern, I'm fine, but I'm sorry I can't reveal my location yet."

Kelia's tone was a little low:

"You should already know about the coup in Wangcheng. My father was sealed by Delilah with petrification magic, and Wangcheng was also controlled by the forces infiltrated by Duke Sonos. They are looking for me everywhere...so I have to be careful."

"I understand that His Highness should be more cautious."

The old duke's face was serious: "The old man received the news of the turmoil in the royal city yesterday evening. He originally wanted to send people to rescue you immediately, but soon heard that you had escaped, so he temporarily held back and waited for the opportunity." .”

Lin Chu in the corner nodded secretly, at least he couldn't fault the old man's words.

He had heard from Kelia before that the old Duke was unable to attend her coming-of-age ceremony due to physical illness, and asked his second son to attend the banquet to give presents on his behalf.

The nobleman slaughtered by the Duke of Nossos in the hall was his second son. It is conceivable that the grievances between the Duke of Bertram and the Duke of Sonos have risen to what extent, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a blood feud.

"Uncle Bertram, let's cut the long story short."

Kelia didn't exchange too many pleasantries, and went straight to the point: "I need help."

"The royal family is in trouble, and my Bertram family will certainly help you with all my might. Even if you put aside the status of the royal family, the personal relationship between me and your father will definitely protect you... Your Highness, where are you? I will go there in person right now." pick you up."

The old prince looked solemn, and he sat back at the desk and wrote something with a quill pen. Lin Chu simply went to the desk to observe.

He found that the old duke's desk was full of real-time information about the royal city, as well as the power distribution of the Duke of Sonos in other towns. He also crossed the adjacent map, and it seemed that he was preparing for the Duke of Sonos. The power hit hard.

As Kelia said, the old duke had a lot of grudges with Duke Sonos, and was more loyal to the royal family.

It's a pity that after all, I'm getting old.

Power was handed over to the eldest son too early.

I don't know what his eldest son's attitude is.

"I now……"

Kelia's voice hesitated, as if she wanted to wait for Lin Chu to speak.

But Lin Chu didn't intend to expose himself, he was still waiting, waiting to confirm whether the Duke of Bertram's family was really trustworthy.

Hiding in the dark and waiting for an opportunity is always more active than being exposed to the eyes of others.

Perhaps because Lin Chu hadn't spoken for a long time, Kelia finally told the hotel where she was, and the old prince left the mansion to greet him without even calling his servants and guards.

"The old prince seems to be really all right."

Lin Chu watched the old Duke leave.

If the other party intends to harm Kelia, they will definitely not go alone.

There is no need to worry about Kelia, while she is still hiding in the dark, first look for the location of the eldest son of the old duke, and it is best to be able to confirm this attitude.

Quickly search the entire Nuo Da mansion.

The current Patriarch of Bertram is not at home, and it is said that he went to Long District to discuss business.

This is both good news and bad news.

The good news is that only the old Duke is at home, which means that there are no variables and dangers, and he is unlikely to be harmful to Kelia.

The bad news is that it is temporarily unclear which side the eldest son of the old Duke of Bertram is on.

Wait for the old duke to bring Kelia to the mansion.

Lin Chu showed up neatly, and Kelia introduced his identity to the old Duke.

"A traveler from the Eastern Kingdom?"

The old duke looked at Lin Chu unexpectedly:

"Although I have never heard of such magical spells in the Eastern Kingdom, since you are the savior of Her Majesty the Queen, you are also my friend. If you have any needs, please feel welcome. How about staying in my house for a while?"

"kindness."

Lin Chu didn't have as many detours as the nobles, and he answered simply and neatly.

Kelia didn't dare to ask the question directly, so he went straight to the point: "I heard that the old duke's son has a lot of business contacts with Sonos, and they are very close. Is it possible that he is biased towards..."

"Impossible!"

The old prince's brows were not angry: "Cavat had to contact Sonos because of business matters, but that dog killed my second son and his own brother yesterday, so it is absolutely impossible for him to contact Sonos Kill relatives and enemies to join forces."

"Ten thousand steps back, if he dares, I will pluck his skin!"

Well, this old man really has a tough temper.

With the help of the Duke's forces, the road ahead should be easier.

"Uncle Bertram, I was cursed by Delilah with black witchcraft. It is a witch spell called World Curse, and I need the help of the Holy See to clean it up."

Kelia lifted her long sleeves, revealing the black silk threads wrapped around her white arms.

"Boundary Curse?!"

The old duke's expression moved slightly: "That female black witch named Delilah is really extraordinary, she can even use this long-lost black witch spell, so it's possible that she has really been to a place beyond the bounds..."

"The Outer Worlds? What kind of place is that?"

Yin Ling, who had just been released, did not miss this opportunity to interrupt.

Lin Chu patted the top of the metal ball: "This is my mechanical elf. It's talkative. I hope the Duke doesn't mind."

"No problem."

The old duke said: "The Outer World is a legendary place, which is different from the Outer World. Some say it is the core of the world, while others say it is a place independent of the world. It is said that as long as you go there, you Can master many lost spells."

"She may have really been there, otherwise it would be difficult to explain why she is so strong."

Kelia also nodded and said:

"I suspect that she also obtained the method of immortality from a place outside the boundary. There has long been no such spell that goes against common sense in the world, even the ancient magic energy prohibition can't do it."

"...Well, let's talk about the land outside the boundary later, did you forget to ask the Holy See to get rid of the curse?"

Secretly write down the matter of the land outside the bounds.

Lin Chu plans to go to the outside world to see if he has the opportunity, even if he has nothing else to gain, just learning a few spells or curse skills is not bad.
