Thieves (above)

　　The Great Fireball spell requires Merlin to cast the normal Fireball spell three times before it can be released.

　　So Merlin then in the room, quickly released three ordinary fireball spell, wait until the sea of consciousness in the gray horizontal frame turned red, Merlin will be the spiritual power enveloped Bell pendant, with the same time is fiercely urged the red horizontal frame.

　　"Great fireball spell!"

　　Instantly, a searing heat seemed to rise quickly, but it was good that Merlin had already pointed the Bell pendant at the huge ball of fire, and then the Bell pendant quickly appeared under the stimulation of Merlin's spiritual power, a powerful attraction.

　　This attraction directly sucked the huge fireball that had just taken shape into the pendant.

　　Merlin heart a happy, hurriedly will be spiritual power into the Bell pendant, found that the huge ball of fire, really has been Bell pendant to confine in one of the small compartment, very solid, only need Merlin gently with spiritual power a stimulation, will be able to release this huge ball of fire.

　　"It worked, the Bell pendant was able to withstand the Great Fireball spell!"

　　Merlin finally breathed a sigh of relief, there are a total of eighteen small compartments within the Bell Pendant, then you can store eighteen Great Fireball spells, which is equivalent to, Merlin is able to release eighteen Great Fireball spells continuously at any time and anywhere, its power, more unimaginable.

　　"Very good, with this Bell pendant, my practical combat ability, will be substantially improved!"

　　So Merlin was in the room, constantly expending mana, releasing ordinary fireball spells until the conditions for releasing the Great Fireball spell were met, and then the Great Fireball spell was stored within the Bell Pendant.

　　Although this is very troublesome and mana consuming, it is good that Merlin now has a whole night, enough time to fill all the remaining eighteen small compartments inside the Bell pendant.

　　An abandoned pasture, thick snow will cover the turf, several men in white robes, draped with a silver armor, is sitting in front of a fire, seems to be deliberating something.

　　The campfire burns brightly, giving off a burst of heat that melts the snowflakes around it into standing water.

　　The three men are thin, their faces are actually wearing golden masks, can not see the appearance, one of the slightly shorter man, reached out to the fire and threw a firewood, sneered and said: "Hey, finally the time to do it, but only against a Wilson, a second-class flame swordsman, need the three of us to do it?"

　　"Quero, a mere Wilson certainly does not need the three of us to do it, but this time it is a matter of great importance to the Church, we absolutely can not take it lightly."

　　"Leilo, Angus, when we do it later, I will deal with Wilson, I want to see, a small noble of Blackwater City, can support under me for how long?"

　　"Well, both of you should not talk much, a single Wilson, or even Blackwater City alone, will not be taken seriously by the Church, but Blackwater City and Glenn City to the east, as well as Ruthe City to the west, form a very favorable defensive circle with each other. So we must hold these three cities at a minimal cost in order to deal with any intrusion that the Blackmoon Kingdom may make to take advantage of our momentary confusion."

　　The last man, who seemed to be the leader of the three, was very authoritative, and when he spoke, the other two listened quietly.

　　"Angus, this time the Lord Bishop has instructed that the three of us are mainly you, so tell us, what exactly should we do?"

　　Angus looked up at the pitch-black void, low voice said: "Blackwater City inside the matter, there is Lord Jason is responsible for, there will be no problem, but the matter outside Blackwater City, we must be responsible, must not also be a problem! Other towns, limited strength, not enough to worry about, only this Wilson's territory, and even stationed a group of heavily armored knights, if we let them break into Blackwater City, only afraid that will cause some trouble for Lord Jason to control Blackwater City."

　　"So, the Lord Bishop ordered us to keep Wilson in the territory forever, at all costs! God will bless us, and the God of Light will always be with us!"

　　Angus' voice was icy cold, and his body exuded killing intent.

　　"The God of Light is with us!"

　　The other two men, wearing golden masks, also stood up abruptly and looked solemn.

　　It was just after dawn when there was a knock on the door of Merlin's room.

　　"Young Master Merlin, the Baron told you to come out quickly and to depart back to Blackwater City."

　　A gray-clad maid shouted softly.

　　"I got it."

　　Merlin was in the room at the moment, slightly pale and looking very tired, but his gaze was shining with excitement.

　　That's because, all night long, Merlin was almost constantly releasing fireball spells, and then quietly waiting for the mana to recover before releasing another fireball spell.

　　So a whole night, Merlin did not close his eyes, but he finally rushed to the dawn, the Bell pendant within the small compartment all filled, with the Bell pendant, Merlin does not even need any mana, only the traction of spiritual power, will be able to release eighteen times in a row the great fireball spell.

　　Merlin stood up and used a thin hemp rope to put on the Bell pendant and subsequently hung it on his chest so that it would also not easily attract the attention of others, yet be able to easily release the spells within the Bell pendant.

　　"Leaving so early?"

　　Merlin left the room, came downstairs, found outside the castle, has been densely filled with many knights, including wearing heavy armor, about two hundred of the most conspicuous knights in heavy armor, is the old Wilson spent a lot of effort, personally trained into, the combat power is amazing.

　　At this time, old Wilson, also clad in black armor, was standing on the stone stairs outside the castle, and seeing Merlin coming down the stairs, frowned slightly and said, "What? Did not rest well last night?"

　　Merlin shook his head and said with a smile, "It's okay, I just came to the castle, I'm just a little uncomfortable. Father is going to take all the knights in the territory?"

　　"No need to take all of them away, only take the knights in heavy armor, the rest of the knights stay in the territory to protect it from those thieves!"

　　Old Wilson shook his head slightly, he did not have the intention of taking away all the defensive forces in the territory.

　　"Hmm? What is that sound?"

　　Old Wilson was planning to depart, but suddenly, his eyes looked into the distance, a noisy and chaotic sound of horses' hooves rang out, and could clearly see the smoke and dust raised in the distance.

　　"Not good, it's a thief, all knights, prepare for the battle!"

　　Old Wilson quickly judged the situation, his face changed greatly, and immediately shouted loudly.

　　At once, the many knights outside the castle then alerted, have drawn the body of the great sword, set up a defensive formation, stared straight ahead.
