Ten minutes later, a chat was heard in the villa lobby.

At this time, Rand was meeting a middle-aged and elderly noble man with an extraordinary temperament and a gray beard all over his face.

Not far away, the housekeeper Banderley stood upright with a very decent look, waiting for the order at any time.

A young maid brought a hot tea cup to the table, bowed slightly and stepped back, standing next to the butler.

"First meeting, Lord Rand." The noble man said with a peaceful smile.

"Sir, we meet for the first time." Rand said to the other party with the same expression.

The person sitting next to him is Earl Harris, who is quite famous in King Yago.

"Earlier, I heard that the Polar Alliance commissioned the Viscount to settle the mansion in our royal capital was really a blessing for our whole country!" Harris said in a friendly and slight mouthful of the steaming tea from time to time.

As an Count with a high status, he was not only the king's attendant minister, but also the king's military, civil and financial power. According to the steward, this old guy was in charge of the royal capital on weekdays, and he was second only to the king and had a huge power.

To put it bluntly, King Bai Ya Ge will be so terrifying and chaotic, and this guy's credit should be indispensable.

Secondly, Rand also noticed one thing:

There are no guard soldiers around the other party, and they are waiting outside the house.

When the mental power expands outward for thirty meters—

Rand could sense that there were eight knight-level soldiers in the courtyard outside the villa, and some suspicious people were walking around outside the mansion.

Outside the gate, there were also groups of maids and male servants carrying the Count and sending gifts to two carriages.

Knowing that Rand was an apprentice of a wizard, the Count dared to come here alone. He was indeed a little brave, and he also showed his sincerity to communicate.

"Sir, you're so kind."

Rand continued to say with a sincere look towards the other person's eyes,

"I plan to live in the capital for a while in the future. I hope you can take more care of it. If you don't do anything well, I hope you will be more considerate!"

"That's a small matter, a small matter!"

Earl Harris chuckled. He liked to get along with people of such personality. He quickly pointed at the air and said,

"Sir, you can find me any problems you have in the city in the future."

"Then I will worry too much from now on!" Rand said with a smile.

After all, he was a human being for two lifetimes, and after living in the wizarding world for so long, he was not the kind of stubborn person, and he had learned how to behave and do things.

Even if the world is already dark, so what?

Rand was very relaxed and felt that dealing with all the evil people in the world was not shameful, as long as it was good for him.

If you have a friendship with this old earl, you can solve any troubles you have in the capital in the future.

When the newly promoted viscount chatted with the old noble count for a long time, he drank and laughed for a long time...

Three hours later, Count Harris left with a blushing smile.

“…….”

The next day, it was almost noon.

"This is Viscount Rand's carriage, you all hurry up and avoid-"

Marin, like a coachman, pulled the reins hard with both hands and shouted, "Get out of the way, get out of everything!"

I saw a noble carriage passing through the streets of the downtown city, and the civilians kept avoiding each other, with a look of panic and curiosity.

"Who is this Viscount Rand?"

"I heard that it was a newly enthroned nobleman. Yesterday I directly chopped off the arm of the city guarding soldier!"

"Wow, he did a good job."

"I just said, no wonder there are so many people entering the city today, so smooth..."

"I really want to know what this viscount looks like."

In the carriage with a few fragrances, Rand could hear the discussions of civilians on the street without expanding his mental power.

But he had no choice. The place they were going today had to pass through the bustling and crowded market.

What's more, I am already a viscount. Since I already have some convenient rights, I have to use them well.

"Sir, please rest assured, you will be there soon."

Osmon, a member of the knight on the other side of the carriage, reminded him that he looked at the scene outside the car window from time to time, as if he was paying attention to the situation around him.

Rand had no intention of responding to the words and remained silent.

He was pondering about what happened last night. Sure enough, Bai Yago was called the "City of Sin" and it was not fake...

Noisy, hot, noisy, destructive, the thugs were almost broken up, and screams of all kinds of men and women were heard one after another. The madness of the civilians and slaves was even alarmed in the middle of the night when Rand got up and looked:

An extremely terrible fire broke out in the city!

Fortunately, I live in the noble area and have not been disturbed too much, and I have also been protected by the members of the Cavaliers. Otherwise, I would have really experienced this hell on earth personally.

However, seeing and hearing last night also made Rand feel a certain "premonition".

He felt that this city with almost no kingly laws and chaotic laws might have what he wanted.

When the carriage moved for nearly half an hour, it came from the center of the city to the south of the city, which was close to the slums. You could even see many remote and dilapidated houses around it, which were so dark that no one lived there.

There are excrement from some creatures on the street, as well as various garbage. It can be seen that it has not been cleaned for a long time. It is really dirty...

What is most admirable is that you can even see big trees growing out in the center of the road here!

In desperation, Rand took the carriage and walked into the slum streets with Marin.

As for the safety of the carriage, another cavalry member, Osmon, stayed to take care of it to prevent being targeted by the poor.

"Sir, there are still two hundred meters away."

Marin said in a low tone in front of him, touching the sword with gold patterns in secret, beware of accidents around him.

The two walked through alleys and corridors, dim and messy neighborhoods.

Not long after, they arrived at an abandoned courtyard. The house next to them was completely damaged and I am afraid that even the beggars and wandering children would not live in it.

"Sir, it's said it's here."

Marin looked at the ruins around him and said with a slight silence as he looked at the sheepskin painting in his hand, "I bought this map for a lot of money, so there should be no mistake."

"Don't be nervous." Rand looked at the surrounding area calmly and walked slowly.

When he walked into this area, he noticed the abnormality of the detection ring, and the flashing red light kept emitting.

Obviously, something like a radiation source exists here.

"This house was destroyed by man, with a slight energy fluctuation, and there are traces of cleaning in the courtyard. This was originally a dry well, so why did you need a handheld bucket?"

"Is it more obvious if I want to cover up?" Rand whispered thoughtfully, constantly looking around for some clues.

Finally, he stood in front of the deserted and exhausted stone well in the courtyard, with dead branches and leaves, and there was a dense "weird" dirty pattern on the rough stone plaque next to it.

Obviously, this "weird pattern" attracts the boy all the time.

Rand squatted down with a slight look, ready to look at it.

The trace is a bit like a painting, and it looks familiar, but he really can't remember where he has seen it.

"Sir, what's wrong?" Marin hurriedly approached and asked.

"Wait, is this a wizard riddle?" Rand seemed to remember something at this moment.

Just as the boy looked at the strange pattern of the stone sign for a while, he seemed to be thinking.

"Sir, what is this?" Marin asked in a low voice.

He was a little worried that the new master would be angry and guilty because he brought the wrong place. In that case, he would be life-safe.

"This is a tiny mechanism that opens the ban, with the effect of 'touching the whole body' and is connected. Just press here to control the overall movement trend..."

Rand finished his words as if he was talking to himself, and his attention was entirely on the "ordinary" stones on the stones-

I saw that his shadow-turning technique was extremely fast, and he pressed it regularly for dozens of consecutive times, and actually moved part of the pattern with his fingertips.

The originally strange black pattern was spent a while on the boy to present a special symbol similar to the "inverted U". This thing is a bit like a character and a bit like a pattern.

"This is an ancient language, and the single word short meaning is 'slave witch'." Rand said.

"Click." Along with a muffled noise in the well.

Ishii in front of the two suddenly shook slightly, as if something had been triggered.

"Command~" a mechanical sound without any emotion intertwined came from the well.

“…”
