Salin didn't know what others were thinking about him, so he cast another first-level magic, poured the healing water into the water glass, and drank it himself.
spendthrift!
It's not just Walnut who thinks this. Casting magic consumes magic strings. He casts a first-level magic for no reason, just to quench his thirst. Even Flamengo ranked Salin as a first-rate playboy mage and felt sorry for him.
The atmosphere became a little awkward, and everyone's attention was focused on Nailis. Only then did Walnut realize that he had lost his composure. He smiled awkwardly, raised his glass, and drank it down in one gulp to cover up his uneasiness.
After dinner, Salin and others went back to their rooms, but everyone from the Nut Mercenary Group gathered in Flamengo's room to listen to Flamengo's arrangements for this mission.
"In this mission, what everyone earns is not gold coins, but two pieces of phlogopite. Walnut, you are a magician. This doesn't mean much to you. What compensation do you need?"
Walnut knew the temper of the group leader and replied happily: "Just discount it as usual, I still want one-eighth."
"Okay, I estimate that the two pieces of phlogopite are worth 2,000 gold coins. If you have no objection, you can share 160 gold coins." Seeing that Walnut had no objection, Flamingo nodded with satisfaction and said to the others: "This time The task is not difficult. Our escort targets all have combat capabilities, except for Aini. But Aini is a member of the Clyde family after all, so he will have certain means to save his life. What we want to focus on protecting is the magic man named Salin. division."
"Why?" Walnut couldn't help but ask.
"Because the reward for our mission is likely to be on him. A first-level magician does not have any close combat capabilities. Brothers Wachowski, you are responsible for protecting him personally. Pay attention to the Caucasian female warrior named Sika. It is necessary When there is a battle, we will assist her in defense. The Caucasians have good combat capabilities. I saw that she has a boomerang hanging on her waist and has certain long-range attack capabilities. If there is a battle, we will have to rely on her to reduce some of the pressure."
"Yes, Captain."
The Wachowski brothers are the heavy swordsmen in the regiment and have the thickest armor. They usually assist Walnut in fighting.
"Javelin, you will be the scout."
"What about me?" Walnut was a little confused when he saw that Flamingo assigned the scouting task to the only gunner in the regiment. In the past, he relied on his own puppets to act as scouts. Why did the leader change his habit this time
"You stay with me and provide support."
Walnut thought for a while and understood what the leader meant. If you are responsible for assisting in the battle, you will avoid consuming a lot of magic cores or scrolls. The income from this mission is not very generous. If the consumption is too large, the gain will outweigh the loss. If you control the detection puppet by yourself, you will have to continue to consume the second-level magic core for three months, which is not a small amount of money.
"Raul, the four of you, just protect Aini. We don't have cars this time, we all ride horses. Be careful of the bows and arrows of the thieves. Everything else is not a big problem."
"Yes, Captain."
"If the employer's health permits, we will walk an extra hour every day. Everyone, please go back and check your equipment. Do you understand?"
"clear!"
"Walnut, you stay, the others can disperse." Flamingo waved his hand and sent his men away, leaving only the magician alone.
That night, Nelisse's moans came from Salin's room again, confirming everyone's suspicions. Salin definitely came from a big family and became a magician with the power of gold coins. How could a real magician still indulge in sex, let alone with his own maid.
There is no future for such a magician.
The Scotians are nouveau riche after all, and they really bring disgrace to the magician profession.
Salin didn't think about these problems. Once he was on the road, he couldn't use the badge to train. He had to seize the time and make use of every second. Every time he uses the badge, his mental power can be slightly enhanced, and the effect is much stronger than meditation. As a magician, who would think that he has too much spiritual power
The breathing in the room gradually became calmer. As Salin lay on his bed, he suddenly felt wary. Outside the window, a palm-sized shadow slipped in through the cracks in the window, but it was a paper man.
The facial features of this paper figure were drawn with a red pen. The colors were bright and looked a bit ferocious. After it entered the window, it tried to slide down the wall to the ground. Salin sat up suddenly, and the white light in his hand was emitted almost instantly.
Saleen's Ice Cone Technique was the magic he was most familiar with, and it was also the first level one magic he learned. The disadvantage of this magic is that the range is too short. In the mangroves, Salin once had to rely on the water shield to protect himself and desperately close the distance between him and the archer in order to exert the power of this magic.
The hotel rooms are not big, so there is no problem of magic range. The ice pick penetrated the paper man's body accurately and nailed the paper man to the wall. The paper man struggled, made a low squeaking sound, and tried to tear open the wound with his hands and escape.
Nelisse jumped up from the floor, pounced like a leopard, tore the paper man from the wall and held it in her hand. The paper man stared at Nailisi's face with ferocious eyebrows, and the eyes drawn in red pen were still moving. Nelisse put the paper man under her nose, sniffed it, and suddenly opened her mouth and swallowed the paper man.
"Nelisse!" Salin was startled. He was afraid that Nelisse had been enchanted by some kind of witchcraft.
Nailis returned to the bed, sat on the floor, and whispered: "It's a paper puppet, a very ancient magic."
"How do you understand?" Salin was confused. After Nelisse came to the continent of Mels, she has been trapped in the temple of the goddess of nature. How can she understand human magic
Nailis pointed to her head and said: "There is one here, I can't tell you clearly."
"Then can you use it?"
"I just had an impression."
Salin didn't feel that Nelisse was lying and believed her words. Many of the devil's abilities are inherited by blood and do not require the guidance of a teacher. This is where demons are stronger than humans. But it seems that a long time ago, humans also had this ability. I don't know why, but with the fall of the Second Dynasty, this ability became weaker and weaker, and completely disappeared thousands of years ago.
In a guest room not far away, Walnut groaned, blood oozing from his mouth and nose, and he fell limply on his chest.
He didn't expect Salin to be so sensitive and able to break the mental imprint in his puppetry. Before he could clearly see the situation in Salin's room, his puppet had been eliminated.
The facial features on Walnut's face were distorted, and his expression was even more ferocious than the paper man's. Flamengo had just left him alone, specifically telling him not to provoke Salin.
Walnut appeared submissive, but in his heart he was filled with anger.
You are just richer than me. If I had been born into a rich family, I would have been a great magician long ago. Hiding his anger in front of Flamenco, Walnut returned to the room and was so stimulated by the sound coming from Salin's room that he could not sleep. The evil thoughts in my heart can no longer be suppressed.
So he quietly released a paper puppet, hoping to take advantage of Salin's exhaustion to strike. Even if Salin cannot be killed, there may still be a chance to steal something from Salin.
If you can steal that white crystal ring, it will be worth quitting the Nut Mercenary Group. After taking the things, I immediately left and flew away. Even if Flamengo was angry, so what? I won’t do it anymore!
He had been careful enough to quietly detect Salin's room without using the magic alarm, and then let the paper puppet get into the window. Who knew that the puppet was discovered immediately.
Walnut wiped the blood off his face vigorously. Regardless of the injuries on his body, he grabbed his bag, carried it behind his back, opened the door, and sneaked out.
Now that Salin has discovered his paper puppet, he can no longer stay in the Nut Mercenary Group. Flamenco would kill him if the truth was revealed.
The most taboo thing for professional unions is for mercenaries to betray their employers. Once such a thing happens, if you don't deal with it as the leader, your mercenary group will be expelled and will also be on the wanted list.
Flamingo would not hire an entire mercenary group just for him. Walnut knew in his heart that if he didn't have this special skill, how could a fifth-level mercenary group take a fancy to a second-level magician like himself. The current situation does not allow him to regret it, so he can only leave here as soon as possible and never appear in the Qin Yin Empire again.
Taking advantage of the darkness, Walnut left the hotel and hurriedly fled out of the town. The further away from the hotel, the more aggrieved he felt. Why, I am not as good as Salin. And because of this damn dandy mage, he actually had to leave the country where he had lived for many years and wander in a foreign land.
He never thought that Salin never provoked him from the beginning to the end, and that it was all his jealousy that caused this ending.
"who!"
Walnut came to the city gate and was discovered by the soldiers on night watch. A town of this size wouldn't be so alert if it wasn't on the border. This place is too close to the Chaos Swamp, and Warcraft often appears on the outskirts of the city.
"It's me." Walnut replied smoothly, but started to recite the curse with both hands. The two soldiers on night watch were wondering, the walnut's magic had been completed.
"go to hell!"
Two rock spikes rose from the ground, piercing the chests of the two soldiers and going straight into their abdominal cavities. At this moment, Walnut mistook the two soldiers who were blocking him as Salin and could not hold back his murderous intent.
The two soldiers were ordinary people. Under the attack of the second-level magic, they had no ability to resist and were killed instantly. After killing the people, Walnut still felt that the pent-up resentment in his chest could not be eliminated, so he threw two more fireballs on the corpses, completely incinerating the two soldiers into ashes. Then he used the giant power technique, pushed open the city gate, and walked away. .
After killing the soldiers, Walnut was a little scared and did not dare to take the main road, so he headed east along the path. He did not dare to go west. The forest in the west was not accessible to him as a second-level magician. If he wanted to leave the Principality of Phoenix, he could only take a detour, pass through the Principality of Rhine, and exit in the Principality of Garulan.
Walnut walked faster and faster, and a sense of joy suddenly aroused in his heart. Thinking about killing two soldiers, he actually laughed softly, completely obsessed. He didn't notice that when he was passing by a wheat field, a scarecrow in the wheat field suddenly turned around and jumped up behind him.
