※It was midsummer, a rainy day. Salin and others left a small school and it started to rain heavily within an hour. wWw,qUAnbEn-xIaosHuo,CoMThe rain was getting heavier and heavier. Rex and Salin were okay. Sikka and Nailis were soaked all over. They had to find a place to take shelter from the rain.
Both of them are physically strong. It doesn't matter if it rains, but the horses can't stand the raging rain. After walking quickly for several miles, I finally saw a wild shop.
This kind of roadside wild shop is quite large and relies entirely on the gold coins earned from trading business. Rex and Salin held up the invisible shield and rushed directly into the huge courtyard of the wild store. Immediately, a waiter wearing a rainproof cloak came out and led the horses of the four people behind.
There are mostly merchants and mercenaries on this road, and pure adventurers and mages are very rare. The waiter said cautiously: "Master Mage, we don't have a separate room here."
"It's okay, it's right here," Rex said, pointing to the seat by the window. This restaurant is quite large, but it doesn't have any decorations. The tables and chairs are all rough logs.
There is a large courtyard wall outside the window that blocks the wind and prevents rain from blowing in.
When two mages came to such a wild shop, they naturally attracted the boss's attention. Another waiter brought a towel, but Salin didn't ask for it. Rex directly used a Cleansing Technique and then added a Fire Raccoon Technique to evaporate the rainwater on Nelisse and Sikka.
The boss didn't dare come forward to harass me. Quietly tell the waiter to put on a brand new tea set. After heating up the hot water again, Todoroki first served these four tough-looking guys.
Salin and others did not feel that they were difficult to deal with. In the past, Rex would go out with even greater pomp. Now at least she doesn't have a sword master waiting around. Of her four black iron sword masters, two were killed and two were still hiding in the magic tower to recuperate.
Because the place she was going to was Alchemy City, she didn't even bring an assassin with her.
If not for secrecy. There are at least a few low-level mages accompanying her. Apart from the magicians, only Salin and others knew about the God's Punishment Hell.
Salin took out a tea set from the devil's ring, made a portion of healing water himself, and used the simulated burning technique to make tea for Rex.
There were still more than a dozen tables of people taking shelter from the rain in the store. Salin's move did not cause any dissatisfaction. Everyone lowered their heads as they did not want to offend the two magicians. People who go out to do business are very discerning. The temperament of these two magicians looks completely different from ordinary low-level magicians, and no one dares to have thousands of ideas to strike up a conversation.
Low-level mages may also be hired by merchants for the sake of gold coins. Even if mid-level mages are short of money, there are mercenary groups above the level of D vying to support them, and these merchants have not yet had their turn.
The store was quiet for a moment. Rex looked at the rain by the window, and his mood became very calm.
Going to Alchemy City was not a temporary idea of hers. She had this plan when she obtained the ten-story magic tower in the God's Punishment Hell. It's just that she couldn't accept the sudden changes after returning to Mels Continent, so she put forward this plan.
Everyone in Kushui has money and lacks people. An eighth-level magician is enough for a county. But if you want to become a real country that does not rely on the power of others, it will not work without a ninth-level magician.
If the passage to the God's Punishment Hell can be opened, Teacher Hong will soon be promoted to the ninth level mage with the help of the six-dimensional space, to that point. At that time, Kushui County was a real country.
If you want to avenge your father, Todoroki cannot rely solely on his personal ability. There are as many powerful people in the Holy See as there are in Alchemy City. Even if you are talented and strong in wine, you cannot rely on your personal strength to fight against the entire Holy See.
She now somewhat understood Salin's feelings. She knew where her enemy was, but she couldn't take revenge. She glanced at the tea that Salin made for her and smiled: "Do you still keep this?"
This tea set was left behind when she went to Clyde's house when she was in Holy Rock City, and Salin put it away casually.
"It's quite expensive. You know my family was poor when I was a child. Salin was not embarrassed. In fact, he didn't like things that Rex had used to be used by others. He didn't know this idea at the time. Now he has OK, OK
Rex pursed his lips and did not expose Salin. Salin didn't like her like those swordsmen, and she was afraid that Salin would embarrass him if he said it with a tender face.
The waiter brings snacks. Rex glanced at it but didn't move. She has developed a habit since childhood not to eat randomly outside. Nailis is not afraid of this, even if there is poison in his heart, it is nothing to her.
After becoming an adult, her appetite has improved a lot and she is no longer inclined to eat blood. After seeing Salin helping Xika detect it, she stretched out her hand and grabbed it directly.
The four of them were taking shelter from the rain. Salin was not hungry, so only Shika and Nailis started to eat. These two people are incredibly powerful and have an astonishing appetite. They are all the type who eat a lot at once and can endure hunger for a long time. From this point of view, the Caucasus region is indeed poor, and the way of survival is somewhat close to that of the devil.
The sound of rapid horse hooves came in the rain. Xika stuffed snacks into his mouth randomly and wiped a handful of them. He quietly wiped his hands clean. He pulled out the boomerang and put it on his lap.
The frequency of the horse's hoofbeats was extremely fast, and it was causing heavy rain. There is no point in letting the knights rush like this. No matter how strong the horse is, if it can only run for a few minutes, its blood will boil and it will be blasted to death. War horses on the battlefield must control their speed, otherwise the horses may run to death when they are excited.
The knight ran so wildly. You only do this when you are running for your life. Sikka usually doesn't care about anything, but is extremely sensitive to battles.
"It really ruined the mood. Naturally, Rex heard the meaning conveyed by the sound of the horse's hooves, and his mood gradually waned.
"Xika, don't do anything." Salin whispered. He didn't want to get involved in any fighting. The empire has not yet fallen into war. Such matters should be left to the local nobles.
Sika nodded. If Salin didn't let her control, of course she would be too lazy to take action.
There were mostly merchants and low-level mercenaries in the store. Todoroki couldn't hear anything amidst the heavy rain. Todoroki was still quiet. Salin looked out the window and saw more than twenty fast horses rushing into the yard. Even though it was raining heavily, the knight on the horse was still stained with blood and had not been washed away by the rain.
It seems that these people have been bitten tightly and the fighting has probably never stopped. The last two people still had more than ten feather arrows stuck in their bodies. The arrows did not penetrate deeply and seemed to be stuck in the metal armor.
Qin Yin's casting technology is so advanced that even the armor can withstand bows and arrows. Unless he is bombarded by an alchemy crossbow, it is difficult to be seriously injured by arrows.
More than twenty knights rushed into the yard and slammed Li Xuan back to close the gate. A dozen of them pulled two four-wheeled carriages parked in the yard to the gate, cut off the wheels and blocked the gate.
There is a parking area in the compound. The two carriages belonged to the same caravan. Seeing the knight destroying the carriage, a dozen mercenaries stood up at the same time and looked at their employer.
The more than twenty people who rushed into the courtyard were strong and strong and wore high-end metal armor. These mercenaries really don't want to provoke them, but they have received money from their employers. If they don't negotiate at this time, their reputation will be completely ruined.
Saleen saw it in his eyes. The distinction became clearer. Among the more than twenty knights, there were at least five small swordsmen. The strongest of the dozen or so mercenaries in Dian Ran was just a high-level swordsman.
Two knights with arrow wounds were carried into the store. Their companions roughly pushed away the oncoming waiter. Todoroki pushed the four tables together. Todoroki rushed the injured knight face down and put them down. He carefully used a dagger to cut off the outside of the armor. shaft. Then they carefully untied the wounded man's armor and then went to pull out the arrow that had penetrated into the muscle.
"Move quickly, this arrow is poisonous! It's getting faster."
"Yes. Boom
Several other knights opened the skin bag and found the medicine, helped the injured knight clean the wound and apply the medicine. The knights in the yard also dismounted, and one of them, a tall and thin knight who looked like a leader, was wearing a dark blue armor. Hand-held short gun gold strode into the store.
"Who is the boss?" the knight commander shouted loudly.
"It's me. Gradually
The boss, who was originally behind the counter ready to greet Salin and others at any time, walked out bravely. He was in his forties and his face was getting rounder. His originally kind appearance was now filled with sadness. He had opened a shop here for more than ten years. , never encountered such a thing.
"I am the swordsman Todoroki of the Forest Trading Company. I encountered a group of thieves and I have to borrow your place." When the knight spoke, Todoroki glanced at Salin and others by the window. When he came in and saw the magician Todoroki, he was also shocked. When talking to the boss, his tone involuntarily became much softer.
Unexpectedly, a swordsman next to him shouted loudly to Salin: "That mage, go out and help."
Saleen's demon suit was a close-fitting piece of equipment, but what he was wearing now was the white mage robe given to him by his teacher. Ordinary swordsmen couldn't tell his true strength, so they just thought he was a second-level mage. The colorful mage robe that Rex wears is more like a fake. If you are not a mage of level 4 or above, you won't even see its value.
Sikka and Nailis had never practiced sword energy. They were both beautiful and strong, so the swordsman spoke in a rather strong tone in desperation.
The knight commander's heart sank, but he did not immediately scold his subordinates. He also wanted to see the reaction of the young mage Jian. Master Yinhong's status is indeed very high in Qin. But because there are a lot of low-level mages. A swordsman-level figure like him doesn't have to kowtow to a little mage.
Saleen just shook his head. He had no intention of helping, but he also didn't want to hurt these knights. The knight commander made it very clear that it was the thieves who were chasing them.
The location of this wild store is very close to the next town. If you ride on horseback, it will only take an hour. The town belongs to a baron. The baron is also a person. He has ten heavy cavalry in his hand, and thirty more. Several swordsmen Todoroki took good care of the security in the area. If you include the auxiliary soldiers to bombard the town of Kangbu, you can gather two to three hundred people.
The thieves wouldn't fight at such a close distance. If they couldn't capture the courtyard, they would naturally leave.
