Chapter 652 Backlash
Paul looked at the red-haired lady.
The red-haired lady also noticed that Paul was looking at her and seemed to become more nervous.
So much so that Paul guessed that she was suffering from some kind of acute illness.
"Madam." Paul approached her and called softly.
"Huh?" The red-haired lady seemed startled.
Paul asked: "Do you need me to help you find a doctor?"
"Uh... no, no, no, I'm just... a little nervous to see the local lord at such a close distance. , Count Grayman."
"Oh, do you know me?"
"I have the honor to see you from a distance in Lake Town."
"It sounds like you are not a local?"
"Yes, we... are touring artists."
Paul smiled and said: "I wish you a pleasant stay in the Northwest Bay Journey."
He looked at the young man who stopped performing as he approached, "Don't stop, the children are waiting for me too."
< br>The young man was smiling, and he did not have the fearful expression that ordinary people have when they see a noble.
"Count Greyman, I eagerly hope to perform a wonderful magic trick for the greatest lord in the land. But my teacher is also eager for this honor."
This flattery is quite flattering. Embarrassed, Paul asked: "Your teacher? Where is he?"
"He is preparing. Please believe me, his level of magic will leave an unforgettable impression on you." . You might as well wait a little longer, good dishes need to be cooked carefully.”
After saying that, Paul went to visit the church.
Mariana warned Nathan and Edward sternly, "Listen, no matter who I attack later, you must cooperate with me. Follow my instructions, what I do and what I ask you to do... …There is no doubt about it.”
The two of them had never been asked like this by Mariana, but looking at her expression, they both nodded apprehensively.
——
“Great Lord Grayman, it is really the greatest honor of my life to meet you here!”
In less than ten minutes, O'Donnell came out and approached Paul and flattered him with extremely exaggerated words.
Desen followed his mentor, but there was a faint premonition of uneasiness in his heart.
"Strange, we are so well prepared. Where does this uneasiness come from? Is it the lord's guards?"
He looked at the mortal guards. Master Mariana, Nathan, and Edward were present. They didn't look like Looks like it could pose a threat.
"Uh..."
He also noticed something strange about the Scarlet Flame Witch. At this moment, a dilemma appeared on the lady's face.
Could the uneasiness come from her? Dessen thought, hoping nothing would go wrong.
In the mentor's arrangement, his role is to be a "diverter."
Contrary to his appearance, Dessen's mentor O'Donnell is actually a very cautious person.
A noble lord with great power naturally has many more things in his head than ordinary people.
O'Donnell was worried that after the spell was activated, his soul would not be able to withstand the impact of the huge flow of information in the earl's mind. So they arranged for their students to "divert" part of the load and bear part of the load.
At the same time, it also avoids missing any important information.
Count Grayman had stood still, quietly waiting for O'Donnell's performance, and his guards gathered around the count.
Desen secretly regretted that most of them might die in this church.
O'Donnell began his performance. He was playing with a piece of silk in his hand, just like the props of other magicians. Of course, this was just O'Donnell's cover-up, used to cover the spell. action.
Desen was silently cooperating with his mentor not far away.
Nathan's hands were crossed in the sleeves of his robe. He had prepared a spell and was just waiting for his mother's target instructions.
It was only just now that he noticed the hesitation and uneasiness on his mother's face. She seemed to be having a fierce ideological struggle, which made Nathan feel a little worried in his heart. He had never seen his mother like this.
Suddenly, Mariana showed a decisive expression on her face and slowly raised her arm. About to launch an attack?
Seeing this, Nathan was also ready to go.
However, what happened next surprised him.
The mother actually pointed her finger at O'Donnell.
What on earth is going on? Nathan's mind went blank.
O'Donnell finished the last action and threw the silk cloth in his hand upwards.
Just when Paul thought a rabbit or something would appear out of thin air, he suddenly felt that he had entered a rather strange state.
My brain hurt so violently that I felt dizzy, but it lasted only a short time and soon slowed down.
Paul swayed and then regained his footing.
"Earl, are you feeling unwell?"
The guard Egram asked with concern.
"Uh, it's nothing. Maybe I haven't slept enough these past few days and I have a headache."
Paul rubbed his temples vigorously.
But there was one thing he didn't explain to Egram. At that moment, countless memory fragments suddenly appeared in his mind, including those from his past life and those from this life. It was really strange.
Egram frowned, "Perhaps, you should return to Lake Town to rest immediately."
"Oh, please, my dear Egram, please at least let me After watching this magic.”
After Paul complained, he looked expectantly at the magician who was performing.
"Sir, this is..."
The sight in front of him made Paul confused. He saw the magician's eyes widened as he stared at him blankly, his whole body remaining stiff and motionless.
"Uh...is this part of the magic?"
Paul didn't know why.
There was a clang, and the magician fell to the ground under his gaze.
Before Paul could react, he heard another clang, and the magician's assistant standing not far away also fell to the ground.
Well, it's not like performing a magic trick.
"Save someone quickly!" Paul shouted.
Not far away, Mariana, Dessen, and Edward stared at the scene in front of them in stunned silence.
Derson and Edward are confused.
Marianna was even more confused. She shouldn't have done it. Why did O'Donnell and Dessen fall down before she even made a move?
Egram stopped the lord's plan to personally go into battle to save people. The other four guards hurried forward and helped the two magicians lying on the ground.
Both of them rolled their eyes and foamed at the mouth.
"Sir, their breathing is normal, but their heartbeat is a little accelerated." The guards reported.
"Oh, may Heavenly Father bless these two poor people, we have to find a doctor for them quickly."
Father Hershey said sadly that the two magicians have been treating the children for the past two days. They brought countless cheers and laughter.
Paul immediately ordered, "Use my horses to send them to..."
"Count Grayman."
Marianna reacted from the shock, although she still didn't know what happened What happened.
She smiled, which made Paul feel warm.
"No need to trouble you, we will take care of our companions. This is their old problem, please don't worry."
