The tall, strong man then waved to his cronies, people from his family, and other local powers.
There was a large alliance between the Frost family and Lothur in this province, many of these individuals being part of the third prince's faction.
Those families want to act to stop Lothur and unravel the mystery of the kart. Hence, several individuals watching him in that place are ready to act together.
Upon seeing the signal from one of them, almost half of the 40 individuals watching Lothur took their weapons and ran toward the walls of that estate.
They knew that such a place was full of Iron-grade formations, which, however not deadly dangerous to them, could cause trouble. That was particularly true considering that Lothur had already ard so of the Bronze-grade formations there.
So they would have to fight their way through before they had a chance to force young Ritter to hand over that strange mini carriage and also deal with him.
Just as they began to act, Lothur stopped what he was doing and held up the Elental Staff, noticing that his many watchers were finally acting.
'So it's finally today?' He wondered, seeing that the local powers' patience with him had ended soon after the Province Conference ended.
He then used his movent technique and positioned himself where his attack formations would not hit him, and the defensive ones would deal with possible enemy attacks.
That was a good chance for him to test the security asures he had developed for his ho. So even though he had the chance to hit those people using the Elental Staff, Lothur wanted to let them think they had a chance against him to see how to improve his house.
'Level 12, 13, and 14 people...' He watched the statuses appearing in front of him, noting the importance that local leaders already gave to him. 'Let's see how many of them will reach without suffering serious damage.'
As he thought about it, the first enemy to enter the Ritter estate set foot where he should not have.
Imdiately after that, a landmine-type formation exploded in that place. It caused the cultivator not to understand the situation as he beca destabilized.
Formations were easy devices to identify as long as one was a formations master or saw it being set up. But once one of these was working, it would be almost impossible to distinguish without a person having a profound knowledge of inscriptions.
That was one reason why it was tough for soone to identify people using items that camouflaged the spiritual cultivation of other beings.
Because of this, although that man and all the 20 or so individuals jumping over the wall of Lothur's estate at the ti knew that there were formations there, they had no idea how to protect themselves.
They only knew that there were many of them around because of the strange feeling they had in their souls when looking in the direction of his house.
Formations were difficult to detect after they were activated. Still, when many of them were in a 'small' space, especially when they were of the dangerous kind, it was common for cultivators to feel sothing as if it were a threat.
That was like what happened in nature. There were beings with warning colors to ward off potential enemies. The Natural Laws of this world also worked like this. A dangerous place would give a feeling of insecurity to those who entered it, to warn the weaker ones to stay away from there.
Sensing this, the people trespassing on Lothur's property knew there were many formations and poisons inside it. It was just a pity that they had greater wants to deal with this young man and had to act in the darkness of their ignorance.
So while the first of those individuals went off balance, feeling pain in his left leg, more individuals suffered similar reactions as they stepped into Lothur's 'minefield.'
On the other hand, so of those people triggered different formations, so that drove nails in their direction, while others flad.
Sssss!
Swooish!
The observers who had not moved continued in their positions, watching those individuals testing the defenses of Lothur's house.
They had no orders to act, so this would be a good chance for them to assess the current situation of the Ritter residence!
With that, the invaders circulated their spiritual techniques, forming shields and barriers around them while protecting their bodies.
So of them had acquired minor injuries from the landmines that had caught them by surprise at first. But since those explosions had been weak, none had been seriously injured.
With this initial developnt, they finally began to attack in Lothur's direction while so shouted.
"Lothur, surrender peacefully, and we can end this with so rcy..." One of those individuals said threateningly, feeling that the advantage was in his group's favor.
Lothur then pretended to be afraid. "Nonsense! If I surrender, you will finish off!"
"Tsk!"
"Brat, it's better to have a quick and painless death than to suffer, as we will make it happen if you make things difficult!" Soone from that group of invaders shouted as he launched a spiritual blow against Lothur.
Such an attack ford a hand of spiritual energy, departing from that individual's fist and heading toward the chest of Lothur.
But before such a thing ca dangerously close to him, the defensive formations in that place went into operation!
One ford a sizeable transparent wall a few ters in front of where Lothur was standing. It looked like a net of threads so small and colorless that it did not even seem to exist.
But when the attack and other types of spiritual blows were about to pass through that region of space, that wall deford, like elastic fabric, as it received weights falling on it.
That was one of the Iron-grade formations of that property, so after a few seconds, it exploded due to the opponent's blows.
However, that was not the only defensive asure of this property, but the first of five. With this, other defenses were raised, simultaneously in which the surrounding formations acted against the enemies.
Puff!
One of these formations spread the poison that Lothur had prepared in one of the areas there, creating a purple and green smoke screen.
When that appeared, all the individuals, inside and outside that estate, except for Lothur, put their arms in front of their noses.
"Poison!" One of them shouted as he recognized this product of the profession that Lothur seed to be one of the greatest local prodigies.
Even iron-grade poisons could diminish their strength or perception of reality if they were careless. So, these people did not underestimate such a thing. Instead, they all tried to protect themselves while taking steps backward.
Clang!
The chanisms of one of the defenses that Lothur had prepared ard themselves, and when three of those individuals looked back, it was already too late.
At that instant, a trap, similar to common land mousetraps, was triggered. When that happened, a large bar with several piercing blades fell into their bodies.
"Oh, shit..." One of them scread at the sight of that, feeling that it would defensively hurt as much as it was not the biggest problem there.
'What the fuck is this? Where did this bastard get these traps from?' One of them wondered, having to understand how these defenses he had never seen worked.
