"Master Lu Ren, wake up! Master Lu Ren!"

Lu Ren, who was having a sweet dream, suddenly felt her body being shaken violently. Although she was very reluctant, she slowly opened her eyes to see who was so blind as to disturb her sweet dream.

"Um...you are...Abel?"

However, when Lu Ren rubbed his sleepy eyes, he found that the other person was Lina's younger brother Abel, and he was in a dishevel and looked like he had just escaped.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you still injured?"

Looking at Abel's anxious expression and the bruises and injuries on his body, Lu Ren asked in confusion, "Could it be that Lina and the others are in danger?" After thinking about this, Lu Ren also perked up.

"Lord Lu Ren, something bad has happened. My brother... Lance has gone crazy. Please go and save my father and sister!"

Abel said anxiously. Hearing this, Lu Ren didn't bother to ask him the reason and directly let Abel lead the way.

Although his magic power has not fully recovered yet, he thinks defeating Lance should be easy.

On the way, Abel also told Lu Ren how he got here.

It turned out that when Abel was in the room, he was protected by everyone behind him, but when he saw that the people around him were slowly going crazy and Lina was unable to defeat Lance, Abel made a prompt decision and flipped out of the window. The room they were in was located on the upper floor of the castle, and Abel fell directly from a height equivalent to several floors. If he hadn't used magic to protect himself, he would probably have been killed.

But after Abel stood up, he didn't care about so many things. Regardless of his injuries, he ran to Lu Ren for help. Along the way, Abel also asked all the soldiers and knights he could see to rescue his father. He just didn't know if these people could be of use.

“Is that so…Is that so…”

After listening to Abel's story, Lu Ren frowned. Lance, who was supposed to wake up in three days, woke up so soon, and seemed to have the ability to drive others crazy and manipulate them. Maybe this is Lance's trump card? No matter how powerful his ability is, it is ultimately a kind of magic, and facing Lu Ren, a powerful wizard, these tricks will not work.

What he needs to do now is to pay attention to those who are controlled by Lance. Lu Ren wants to avoid hurting innocent people as much as possible, but he doesn't know if these people can be saved.

Under the leadership of Lu Ren, the two quickly came to the room where Lina and the others were. As soon as they reached the door, Lu Ren saw Lance stepping on Lina, and there were more than 20 people surrounding them.

"This farce must end!"

Seeing this, Lu Ren didn't care about anything else. She sent out a magic beam, killing all the people blocking the way. These people had dazed eyes and strange movements, and it was obvious that they were controlled by Lance.

As the magic beam approached Lance, he raised his hand and easily blocked it. Lu Ren was also a little surprised when he saw it. It seemed that Lance was a little stronger now than before.

But this is not enough, Lu Ren took out his holy sword "Ice Soul". At this time, she did not have much magic power, so Lu Ren wanted to rely on the power of the holy object to defeat Lance.

"Tsk, it's you again! I won't lose this time!"

After looking at Lu Ren, Lance's expression became serious. Facing Lu Ren's charge, Lance began to command the people in the house to protect themselves.

Under Lance's order, these knights used their bodies to block Lance. Lu Ren had no choice but to kill them all together. Anyway, Lina's father would not blame him later.

After quickly eliminating the blockers, Lu Ren finally came in front of Lance. She raised the holy sword and wanted to split Lance in half.

However, just as Lu Ren was about to swing his sword, he saw Lance holding Lina hostage.

"Don't move! You don't want her to die like this, do you?"

Lance clamped his arms around Lina's neck. The latter's consciousness was a little weak and she just instinctively let out a groan of pain.

"Tsk... You are so shameless to use your own relatives as hostages."

Seeing this, although Lu Ren was very angry, he still distanced himself from Lance and started a confrontation.

During this time, Lu Ren also saw Count Valuka lying in a pool of blood. Although he had lost consciousness at this time, Lu Ren sensed that he was not dead yet and was just temporarily unconscious.

Lina's condition was much more serious. All of her limbs were severely injured and she was still bleeding.

"Well……"

In pain, Lina opened her eyes with her remaining consciousness. After seeing Lu Ren, she smiled slightly and said in a hoarse and subtle voice:

"Don't worry about me... Kill him quickly..."

Although Lina's voice was very weak, Lu Ren still heard it all. Of course, she wanted to do the same, but wasn't Lina being taken hostage by her?

It works like this: the hostages just need to die bravely, but the rescuer has a lot of things to consider.

"Drop your weapons!"

Lance didn't care about Lina's movements at this time. Anyway, Lina couldn't do anything now. He stared at Lu Ren and thought to himself that his plan was good. As long as he had the right hostages, Lance could fight against these top masters.

"Shameless thing!"

Lu Ren had no other choice but to listen to Lance and put away the holy sword. However, she did not sit there and wait for death, but secretly prepared magic, thinking of catching the opponent off guard.

Under normal circumstances, Lu Ren would have been prepared long ago, but now she had just experienced two major battles and her magic was almost exhausted, so she needed some time to prepare.

Just as the two were in a stalemate, a burst of shouting and killing suddenly came from outside the castle.

After hearing the voice, Lance retreated to the window excitedly, and then looked outside the castle. Lu Ren wanted to take this opportunity to sneak attack Lance, but the other party was also very alert and quickly turned his head back.

"Humph, my troops have also begun to attack the city. Soon the entire Valuka Territory will be mine!"

From Lance's appearance, it is not difficult to tell that the Nagios archers should have arrived outside the city and are fighting with the defenders in the city. After a great battle, the defenders are no match for the Nagios archers. It is only a matter of time before Lance's reinforcements enter the city.

"So what? Even if you really take this city, it will only alert the people in West Island City. It won't be long before they send a large army to attack you."

Lu Ren knew that he couldn't be impatient, so he started to stall for time with Lance so that his magic could be ready. Abel had already climbed the city wall and began to command the defenders to counterattack, but he could only delay for a while.

"Hmph, once I take over Valuka, I will join forces with the Albians to divide Frannia. Just wait and see! I will eventually become the supreme king!"

In the face of Lu Ren's ridicule, Lance laughed contemptuously, as if he had already won.

"Poor guy who is immersed in a crazy dream, it's time to wake up!"
