The girl nodded: "Mr. Mage's matter has come to an end. I think I should go back."
"But where are you going back?" Xiao Fen couldn't help but think of the hut that was half blown up by the fireball. Like a bird's nest with an empty bottom, only the shelves were left hanging on the cliff, crumbling. He asked: "Miss Witch,
There are many vacant houses in Qilagut City, and they can still be lived in if they are cleaned. If you insist on going back, how about I ask the agency people to help you repair them?"
"Thank you, Mr. Master."
Griffin walked over from the pile of gold and silver jewelry, but hesitated to speak.
Xiao Fen took out a letter from his backpack, which was exactly the letter that the girl asked them to send to her family. "This is your letter. We will send it to your family as promised. I think you must love you very much."
Family? But don't you want to see them?" Upon hearing this, Miss Elf lowered her outstretched hand. She raised her head and looked at her captain with a strange look.
The girl thought for a moment and lowered her head.
Xiao Fen said: "You know what we think, right?"
The girl nodded meekly.
"What do you think, Miss Witch?"
"Is that okay?" The girl raised her head and looked at the two of them.
"Of course!" Griffin finally waited for these words. Her eyes flashed with joy and she glanced at Palin in surprise: "Brosalon is not far from here, it won't be too troublesome. Isn't it, Captain?
?”
Our mage did not answer, but smiled slightly on the lines of his pale face outlined in the shadow of his hood.
…
The morning dew between May and June hangs on the branches, and there is a refreshing and refreshing smell in the air. The sky has just brightened. The morning breeze still carries the slight coolness of the night that has just passed, but the golden-red sun is very bright.
It will soon jump out from the direction of the Yunwu Mountains. The sun is baking the ground so hot that even the green leaves will droop down dejectedly. The only sound left is the sound of a carriage wheel under the shade of the trees.
This is the harbinger of midsummer, which according to the locals is the month of June in Petera.
Xiao Fen was dressed in black robes and stood under a maple tree. The sunlight filtered through the branches and leaves, leaving a golden silhouette on the mage's robe. He stood there like a dead tree, quietly watching the carriage pass by.
Passing by me - there is a coat of arms on the dark wall of the car, 'The hand of despair entwined with thorns'. Since the Lady of Blood Moon's thorn knights won the big battle before the rainy season, those wearing black battle suits...
The player who wears the robe becomes the de facto master south of the Grass River.
That war ended half a month ago——
Under the cover of the Shadowhand Brotherhood led by the Sage of Courage David and the Sage of Shadow Tishaveka, the remaining army withdrew from the Ferry to the north. It is said that the collapsed army was more than ten miles away. It was hundreds of years ago.
Since then, the Dragon City has never suffered such heavy losses. The Dragon City lords even recalled the Novilia Eleven Corps of Balgans - this regiment has long been monitoring the northern lords, in the direction of Jinghu Lake,
But today we have to face the enemy from the south.
Sword Master Alanus also returned to people's sight. Under the appointment of Grand Duke Matthew, he led the Dragon Flame Legion to settle in Dry Castle.
The Hands of Despair are currently besieging Dry Castle, and on the other side they have even approached the Dragon City. However, the Thorn Knights do not dare to confront the Matissa Dragoon Regiment for the time being - the player's goal is the Dragon City Plain, and
The wheat is about to ripen there.
In the direction of the Shield of Truth, the Southern Alliance stabilized the situation with the help of the arcane sage Rex. Although Xiao Fen told them from the beginning that the sages were monitoring their every move, these mediocre people only watched
The guys who saw the immediate benefits still wasted the most precious time. At present, the hand of despair has crossed the Grass River and cut off all communication between the hilly areas and the plains. The Shield of Truth has almost become an isolated city, and only the Thorn Castle in the south has become the only one.
Information transfer point.
But Thornburg is still under the control of Erathizer's dragon knights -
The Rune Island Empire took control of Trans and the Fort Carmen Peninsula, but the empire's fleet seemed in no hurry to take further action. They just took over these two places from the Hands of Despair, and then stopped. They had no intention of launching the next
An offensive. Xiao Fen heard that there were some differences between the voices of the top management of Rune Island and the voices of the Hand of Despair - the empire requested that Orath be divided into five parts, the Principality of Corin, the south of the Grass River, and the land east of the Grass River.
North (the former Dragon City territory), the Northern Ten Territories (the condominium area of Silver Vislan) and Jinghu.
But the Hands of Despair insisted that the territory south of the Grass River be merged with what is now Dragon City, as they now lost the Fort Cammen peninsula. This dispute caused the war to slow down by June, and Dragon City thus
Gained precious respite.
"The situation of confrontation between the north and the south of Oras has taken shape and will not change for a long period of time."
Xiao Fen thought as he saw the carriage go away. The Thorny Castle where he was now became the most peaceful area on the entire front. The dragon knights of Erathize maintained the order here. In the bar here, you can
You can see groups of Knights of the Hand of Despair wearing black shirts, and you can also see players who oppose them.
There were frequent quarrels between the two and then escalated into disputes and fights, until they were both thrown out by the guards - but behind the scenes of adventurers' swords and swords every day, ordinary people's lives also continued. There were almost no changes in the lives of ordinary people, except for shops.
In addition to the fact that the owners found that their business was doing better, these people did not hesitate to praise everything for this.
However, once you leave the city, you will immediately realize the ruthlessness of war. With the tacit approval of the dragon knight captain, Count Weiss prohibited any refugees from entering the city. A large number of these people died during the rainy season, and most of the remaining people survived hunger and disease.
among.
Players who live in peaceful times have never seen the devastation of human nature caused by war. The miserable situation of refugees makes most people feel compassion. A kind heart prompts them to organize spontaneously to help these people without asking for anything in return, or even
You also have to endure the ridicule from other players (most of these ridicules come from the Knights of Thorns). However, this spontaneous behavior has become widespread. At first, there were mostly female players, and later boys gradually joined the ranks. Those
Players wearing black shirts soon found themselves isolated.
But the good times did not last long. Players bought up the food in Thorn Castle, which almost caused a crisis. The Earl mobilized some food from the Hand of Despair to solve the problem, but since then, the Thorn Knight has been in Thorn Castle.
will have more privileges, and the residents of the town are also complaining about the players - Count Weiss even privately declared these people to be persona non grata.
Kind-hearted players find that it becomes difficult to do things. Sometimes they have to watch many people die helplessly. Most people feel aggrieved: it seems that they are clearly the right party but cannot be recognized.
Xiao Fen is not surprised by this. In fact, sometimes recognition is not important, just like he has always believed that his pursuit has always been his own. For the mage, the only good news since June is probably the civil strife of the devil. He
It can be felt that these Natali are now unable or unwilling to pursue themselves. If it is true that the demon lord Nassas has been replaced by another demon as reported on that forum - then these villains from the lower planes really need to
It takes some time to sort out the forces.
The mage confirmed that he had nothing to do with the demons in other planes. The only one who had a problem with him was Nessus. Now he has disappeared. If the existence at a higher level has not taken him seriously, then he can indeed have a leisurely time.
time.
He heard the sounds of fighting coming from the forest and couldn't help but turn around. There, Cole was fighting an earth elemental summoned by Griffith in close combat. For a week in a row, they had been testing the effects of the modified version of Shadow Wings on the combat mode.
The impact is obviously huge, both good and bad. It will take some time for players to become familiar with this rhythm.
"Where is Brossalon?" The little girl curiously chatted with the witch lady behind the tree.
She arrived with Snow, along with Wrought Iron, Wild Stone and Red Dragon Miss Fratis. Now this lady has become very close to her companions, and they encountered a difficult battle in Trans.
The experience of fighting and fighting side by side allowed them to form a strong relationship. Although they may still be a little unaccustomed to it, our mage can already see the natural protection for Sophia from her.
The charm of the little paladin princess is still as good as ever. Perhaps people with simple minds should be more popular.
Miss Witch was a little embarrassed, and Sophia's overenthusiastic attitude made her a little uneasy. Compared to her, who was more accustomed to getting along with Griffith, Miss Elf was always smart and decent.
"Brosalon is south of here, Sophia." Xue knelt down under the tree with a white porcelain teacup on her knees. There was a faint heat inside. She replied.
"Is Brossalon your hometown?" Sofia didn't feel that her question looked stupid at all. In fact, she just wanted to talk to the witch lady: "It must be very far away, right?"
Miss Witch lowered her head and said in a voice as soft as a mosquito: "It's very close there, Sister Sophie."
Shui fainted and burst out laughing, then was immediately glared at by the little girl. The little priest and the goblin arrived the day before yesterday, and burst into tears when they saw Yun Na. Xiao Fen learned about the Darkness from her
Ye's choice - actually this is not surprising, because after learning the background of the war, even the Dragon City lords are not necessarily monolithic.
Xiao Fen looked to the side and saw the goblin lying in the shade of a tree and taking a nap.
Then he heard shouting from the other side, which was the voice of the hateful-looking dwarf: "It's calculated, it's calculated!" Everyone turned around and saw the dwarf, Miss Black Dragon, and Miss Red Dragon.
They held hands and danced in circles on the grass, singing: "Treasure, our treasure, la la la - a treasure that only belongs to us!"
However, the seemingly harmonious scene soon changed.
Miss Black Dragon suddenly slapped the dwarf away, and then bit her with Vladis. The two little female dragons were rolling on the grass, one claw and the other, and they were roaring, "This is mine, that is mine."
Mine!" lines like that.
Then Xiao Fen saw Yun Na walking over there holding a notebook.
"Is it settled?" he asked.
The female mage smiled and nodded while handing him the account book. "The Ella people have a total of 300,000 square gold coins, 3,700 gold bars, and a total of 1,030 gold and silver utensils. No jewelry.
Detailed statistics, but the added value is about 110,000 gold coins. There are also some mithril and fine gold. This translates to a total of 824,307 gold coins. We divided these items into 20 batches and delivered them separately.
We conducted valuations in different nearby towns, trying not to attract other people’s attention, but the news still got out, and it was probably only a matter of time before the Hands of Despair found us.”
She spoke quietly, bit by bit, as if reciting something.
"It's enough time." Xiao Fen replied: "By the time they find us, we will have already left here."
"Where are you going?"
"Go to the Fourth Town. According to Xue, the Bloody Slayers should be hiding there now."
Yun Na looked at him with blood-stained eyes.
"They gave the Shining Gold Coin a promise, and we naturally have to respond to them." The mage replied, and the staff in his hand spread out like shadows on the ground. On the surface, he seemed relaxed, but in fact, he was always on guard against the surroundings——
He has become familiar with the new ability of King of Power in a few days and can use it with ease.
On the other hand, Thorn Castle is the territory of the Hand of Despair after all. Although it is temporarily under the temporary control of Erathizer's dragon knights.
"The shining gold coin belongs to each of us, Yun Na, what do you think about this?" After he finished speaking, he looked up to look at the female mage.
The female mage just smiled slightly.
Xiao Fen understood what she meant, she was just making suggestions.
"Before that I want to go to Brossalon, you know." He continued: "And see if there are any adventure opportunities along the way."
"It's not far there." Yun Na said: "But Brossalon is not a big place, and you may not be able to find high-level priests who can perform miracles there."
Xiao Fen frowned after hearing this and turned back to look at the witch girl. The girl had been talking to everyone docilely.
"Let's figure it out. Anyway, the devil's quest line has come to an end for the time being, and the shining gold coins are free. In addition to short-term goals, it seems that Apple will also join us in the four towns in the near future - they have already left Fort
Peninsula del Carmen." He replied: "Olas will be calm for a period of time, and the confrontation between the north and the south may continue until after the rainy season - but this is just a preparation for more violent storms in the future, and we must seize the opportunity."
Yun Na did not object to this, so there was silence under the tree for a while.
"Where's the treasure? Captain, have you decided how to distribute it?" Yun Na changed the topic and asked.
"Everyone will take a thousand gold coins first, and the remaining half will be used as group funds, and the other half will be returned to Qilagut City. I thought about it for a while. The shining gold coins do need a reserve fund and a place to stay, but they are still used for the time being.
Not enough. The most important thing now is to allocate the equipment, we must improve the overall strength as soon as possible." The mage answered clearly.
"The equipment hasn't been appraised yet, and there are two pieces that still don't meet the camp's requirements." Yun Na said, "I've asked everyone to try it."
"Where's the rest?"
"It's better than you expected, and there's another artifact." The female mage smiled slightly: "How about you guess?"
"Category? Simple, military or exotic?" The mage felt better for a moment and asked.
"military."
"I assume it's a ranged weapon?"
"answer."
"So it's a longbow?"
"Very sharp, Captain."
Xiao Fen smiled, turned back to look at Ke'er and said, "I've rarely seen you so gentle and talkative. I can see that you care about your sister very much."
Yun Na smiled and said nothing.
But at this time, she saw a group of players hurriedly running along the avenue of Thornburg. The person in the lead was carrying a long sword and looked like a swordsman. As soon as he saw the little girl, he shouted
"Sophia, it's not good! It's not good!" Xiao Fen couldn't help but turn around and saw the little girl standing up from the witch girl, and asked loudly: "What's the matter, Xiaoye? Is it that evil-hearted earl?"
Did you sell food to you?"
The mage recognized at a glance that this swordsman was the leader jointly elected by the group of players who were helping the refugees. Because of the little girl, the two parties had gotten to know each other after a few days of contact. However, the other party did not know who his group was.
Identity. I only know that at least the little girl is a very powerful paladin, so I usually come to her for help when I need anything.
"No, Sophia." The man was out of breath. When he saw Xiao Fen, he quickly nodded in this direction: "Your Majesty, the Earl, is going to give an order to drive away those refugees!"
"How is that possible!" The little girl almost jumped up when she heard this.
She simply interrupted the other person's next words, turned around and shouted at Miss Red Dragon who was fighting with Maari Bailey: "Sister Vladis, let's go! Let's go teach those bad-hearted guys a lesson!"
However, before the hot-headed paladin lady could take the first step, she was stumbled by a black shadow that suddenly appeared from the ground.
"Ugh——" The princess of Silver Veslan hit her head against a tree.
Xiao Fen stared at her.
