Above the Seven Towers

Chapter 105: Outside the battlefield

Views:

Sir Tor Botero began to laugh at the female knight who was hiding her face behind the mask, and the servants around her also joined in the fun.

"This woman has a nice figure, she shouldn't be stuffed into a suit of armor. Haha."

"Let me touch you, and I'll let her be the leader for a day."

"Girl, spend the night with the strong Nero. I will let you know what a real warrior is. Haha."

Li Jia could clearly feel Sir Arias's anger. She had already put one hand on the hilt of the sword, with her fingers slightly spread. Li Jia had seen this action many times in the mornings before. He knew that once she pulled out the sword, the bastard named Thor would never see the sun again.

Those clamoring guys didn't know that they were getting closer and closer to the gates of hell.

Why didn't Viscount Ruiz stop it? Li Jia saw that the Viscount just stood there, frowning slightly, but didn't say anything.

Had he so easily abandoned Sir Arias? He had arranged this team and put her in this position. It was so unfair to her.

For some reason, a strong anger ignited in his heart. When those guys kept going too far, unstoppable anger burst out from his mind. He glared, shouted curses, and stretched out his hand to Sir Thor...

As if with divine help, a huge gust of wind formed in front of him, and blew violently towards the laughing people, hitting their faces and bodies fiercely. The strong wind encountered the resistance of the body and broke into countless tiny wind blades, which immediately cut their faces and made them bleed. These people were suddenly hit, and they dodged in panic, covering their faces and screaming in pain.

Sir Thor used his arms to protect his face. He was not seriously injured, but there was a bloody scratch on his chin. He pointed at Li Jia with a shocked, angry and strange expression on his face: "Mr. Messenger, what are you doing? You... You are actually a magician?"

This is... the magic I released? When did I have such power? Li Jia wanted to condense another wind blade, but he felt dizzy, as if his mental strength faded along with the anger.

Looking at the scene he had created, Li Jia was somewhat at a loss. These people were supposed to be reinforcements, but now they were beaten so badly by him. Wouldn't the request for help be ruined? For a moment, he didn't know whether to apologize or blame, and stood there on the stage with his mouth open.

Shi Hao and Du Mei beside him were also stunned. But Shi Hao was a soldier after all, and although he didn't know why Li Jia suddenly used magic, he quickly stepped forward, raised his rifle, and stopped Li Jia and Du Mei behind him.

Sir Thor's servants also drew their weapons. Those who were not injured were ready for battle, while those who were injured covered their wounds and shouted and cursed loudly.

On the parade ground, the atmosphere suddenly became tense and a fight was about to break out.

Viscount Ruiz's face was gloomy. He was about to step forward and say something, but was stopped by Sir Arias. She said softly, "Uncle Ruiz, since you left the test to me, let me solve it."

Sir Arias jumped down from the platform and came to Thor and his party. Sir Thor's servants stood nervously in a semicircle around her.

"Put down your weapons!" she said without question. Then she took out a crystal stone from her pocket and held it in her hand. She chanted the spell of healing, and the crystal stone emitted a soft white light, amplifying the power of healing. The gentle light shone on the faces of the injured, and the bleeding slowly stopped.

"Healing magic!"

"She can actually control magic on such a large scale!" The servants discussed in amazement. Their wounds first stopped hurting, and then they felt numb and itchy. More than ten minutes later, when they touched their wounds again, they found that they had already formed scars.

Sir Arias let go of her hand, and the crystal stone turned into powder and flew away with the wind. She sneered and said, "Under the glory of magic, there is no difference between men and women, only strength. Can't a magician and a magic knight lead you useless people?"

"Whoever refuses to accept it, I can let him try some other magic." She moved her fingers, which were shining with lightning, left and right, pointing at those who had just spoken wildly, and finally stopped at Sir Thor. "You? You? Or you?"

The warriors, including Sir Thor, no longer dared to act presumptuously. The person who had just swore bowed his head and trembled.

Sir Arias stepped on the ground in front of her, where a shadow of a tree under the moon was only an inch away from the tip of her boot. She ordered: "Now prepare to go. If anyone does not pack his luggage when the shadow of this tree passes over my feet, I will make him know what military law is! Go!"

Ji Yijun paced back and forth in the room angrily, "I'm an idiot, I'm a fool." He glanced at the window that was nailed tightly with thick wooden boards and wanted to punch it.

Huang Zheng sat on the wooden bed and said unhappily, "Don't turn around. We have checked it out. This room is sealed tightly. There are heavy soldiers guarding outside. Don't even think about escaping. You should just sit down and recover your strength."

"I shouldn't have trusted that pretty boy, all pretty boys are bad. Is this called cooperation? Fuck him, is this the attitude to treat a partner? He used me to trick you all out of the dark, and now, we've been caught in one fell swoop! We can do whatever he wants to us!" Ji Yijun cursed, totally unaware that he had been called a pretty boy in the past.

"Squad leader, actually... it's not bad to stay here. At least there's food to eat, which is much better than squatting in the bushes and getting bitten by mosquitoes." Enrique said while eating barbecue at the coffee table in the corner of the room.

Ji Yijun took off his shoes and threw them at Enrique's head. This attack was full of fighting spirit. Enrique screamed and rolled over while holding the barbecue to avoid it. His shoes hit the wall heavily, leaving a black mark. Enrique squatted on the ground, grinned at Ji Yijun, and continued to eat the barbecue. Since his blood changed, he seemed to like thinking more and more with his muscles.

Huang Zheng stood up, called Garcia to join him, pulled Ji Yijun to the edge of the bed and pressed him down, saying, "At least these people don't regard us as enemies..."

"Can someone who 'keeps us safe' like this be considered a friend?"

"Not yet, but maybe it's true as he said, there is a possibility of cooperation between us." Huang Zheng said slowly, "If I were that A Dan, I would also wait until the right time to take action. War means death. If I can't ensure that I will benefit, why should I let my subordinates risk their lives? He is controlling us now and observing the battle situation, which shows that he is sincerely seeking cooperation."

"Then there's no need to lock us up!" Ji Yijun argued.

Huang Zheng sighed and said, "Since we are just waiting and watching, there is of course another possibility. If our school cannot withstand the attack, will he let those of us who know his plan live? Will he risk leaking the information and letting Cadiz seek revenge?"

Hearing this, Ji Yijun gritted his teeth and said, "I will not sit and wait for death. We must take the initiative. Enrique, come here, let's do this..."

"The battle situation is becoming more and more obvious." A Dan muttered on the bell tower. He turned around and ordered the guards: "Go, bring that restless boy up."

"Brother, let me go." Aura said, "I really want to see how anxious that kid is."

As Aura led the two guards downstairs, she recalled the two meetings with Ji Yijun. The impression this guy gave her was... well, not very good, right? He always seemed impatient and proud, and his strength was much lower than his brother. Such people would always cause trouble and put themselves in dangerous situations. They could always do much less than they wanted to do, just like a lame goat that always wanted to jump over a wide cliff, but always fell to pieces.

If I hadn't stopped my brother during the first duel, I'm afraid he would have died.

And this time when he sneaked into his brother's room, it was an act close to suicide. If his brother didn't have other plans, how could he have let him get out alive

However, the unyielding spirit of this guy was something Aura had never seen before. Most of the people around her followed the rules, and they seemed to lack something compared to him.

Aura came downstairs and ordered the soldiers guarding Ji Yijun and his group to open the door, but the scene inside the door surprised her.

The room was in a mess. Ji Yijun was lying on his side, curled up on the ground, with a chair leg stuck in his chest. He held the chair leg tightly with both hands, and it was unknown whether he was dead or alive. Another person was lying on his back not far from Ji Yijun, and there was no movement.

"What's going on!" Aola was so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat. She rushed in and reached out to touch Ji Yijun. The guard beside her shouted "Be careful!" and tried to hold Aola back, but was a step too slow.

At this time, there was a strong force behind the door, and the two door panels hit the two guards heavily, knocking them out of the room. At this time, Aura also realized that something was wrong. She looked back and saw two young men hiding behind the door. After closing the door, they used two chairs to hold the door bolt.

Just as she was about to make a move to break the door, she felt a hand pressed against the source of Dou Qi on her lower abdomen.

"You'd better not move and cooperate with me." Ji Yijun's voice sounded in her ears.

"You are doing something stupid." Aola's face turned red when Ji Yijun touched her lower abdomen. But she still put down her arms and did not resist. Her intuition told her that this crazy guy would do something desperate.

"Sometimes, I am a little stupid, but it is smarter than leaving your life to others." Ji Yijun pulled out a dagger from Aola's waist and put it on her neck, but did not let go of the hand on her lower abdomen.

"My brother was going to cooperate with you. Is this how you treat someone who might be your ally?" Ola asked loudly.

"Cooperation always requires some bargaining chips. Your brother has too many bargaining chips, so I can only borrow some from you." Ji Yijun said.

"Shameless!" Ola was embarrassed and annoyed, but the way she glared at Ji Yijun was not intimidating at all, but rather a little cute.

At this time, Huang Zheng, who had just been lying on the ground pretending to be dead, also stood up. He dusted himself off and said, "We have an old saying, 'Even if the deal fails, the friendship remains.' With Miss Aura accompanying us, we don't have to worry about losing both the deal and the friendship."

"If you don't let her go now, your business will definitely be ruined." With a loud bang, the door was kicked open and the bolt broke into two pieces. Adam walked in with a gloomy face, "I swear, if anyone dares to touch my sister, I will kill his entire family. You have offended me now."

Ji Yijun snorted coldly, but did not let go.

"Mr. A Dan." Huang Zheng walked up to A Dan, looked into his eyes and said, "I can see that you are not bandits, but people who are doing great things. In this case, we don't need to play these bandit tricks. The situation is very simple now. As long as you send troops to fight the bandits, we will release them immediately. After that, you can kill or chop them up as you like. But if you don't do this, we will have to rely on Miss Aura to ensure our own safety. But I promise that as long as we leave safely, she will be safe."

A Dan narrowed his eyes and glanced at Huang Zheng and Ji Yijun. Both of them could sense the murderous intent in his eyes. "I didn't expect that you outsiders are so bold."

Ji Yijun found it difficult to look directly into Adam's eyes. Huang Zheng was just an ordinary person and felt that his eyes were about to be blinded by the other person's gaze, but they still gritted their teeth and looked into Adam's eyes.

"Ji! You challenge my bottom line every time, and one day you will kill yourself. Take your dirty hands away and follow me. The situation on the battlefield has begun to change, and the time is almost here." With that, Adam strode out of the room.
