Chapter 1053: Return

When Merlin and Master Rosalie had finished eating, Master Lan Li asked to see her outside the tent.

"Lord Rosalie, Master Snorr, can you recount the process of this sortie? We don't have any news of you at HQ, and everyone is worried about you. Master Lan Li said sincerely.

"Huh!"

Sighing softly, Mage Rosalie lowered her glass, frowned slightly, and described what had happened after this sortie...... It wasn't a pleasant experience, so her voice was very deep.

Lan Li's face became extremely ugly when he heard that the hunting team had been ambushed several times: "Didn't you receive a prompt from the headquarters?"

"Is there a hint at HQ?"

Merlin sneered: "I'm afraid those didn't take us to heart at all, right?"

This is obviously a complaint!

Lan Li wanted to defend the headquarters, but seeing the embarrassed appearance of Merlin and Master Rosalie, he could only smile wryly and shake his head, and instead gave them a brief account of what happened at the headquarters.

It turned out that after Mei Lin and her group of hunting teams left the headquarters, the enemy suddenly launched a fierce attack on the headquarters defense line, mainly the mages who devoured the bites, and this attack lasted for two days and three nights, with countless casualties on both sides, and they all paid a huge price.

"This mission was wrong. After listening to Master Lan Li's story, Mei Lin's mood became worse and worse, and she felt like an outcast.

"No, no one did it on purpose. ”

Master Lan Li shook his head: "It's just that some people's concepts are too rigid to adapt to the development of this war. ”

He looked at Mage Rosalie and asked in a low voice, "Don't you have any news from the other mages?"

"Nope. ”

Mage Rosalie let out a long sigh, "Our men have been scattered many times in many ambushes by the enemy...... Finally gathered in one blow, and it didn't take long for them to disperse again, and from the last time to now, there is not the slightest news, I only know that Master Vannick must be dead, but the others are not clear. ”

"No news is good news, and as long as they don't die on the spot, they can hope to come back again. Master Lan Li muttered in a low voice, he actually knew that unless these mages were particularly lucky, they would definitely die in the pursuit of the enemy.

"How many Level 3 mages have you met today?" said Master Rosalie, who was silent for a moment, and suddenly asked.

"One. Master Lan Li's voice was a little uncomfortable, "Maybe they were met by other teams, after all, there are many teams that came out this time." ”

Both Merlin and Mage Rosalie knew that the only third-level mage that Master Lan Li said was Merlin, which made the two of them feel a little sad.

The three of them talked to each other for a while, and someone came in to report that hot water had been prepared for the two mages to take a bath, and Master Lan Li took the opportunity to say goodbye: "You are very lucky, today three hunting teams were sniped by the enemies gathered here when they were close to the defense line of the headquarters, and only a few of them survived, I think you will still be favored by the goddess of fate in the future." ”

Mage Rosalie politely thanked the other party, "I hope so. ”

Since there were not enough tents, Merlin and Mage Rosalie stayed in one tent to rest again, and Merlin took out the tent in her hand and used it, but there were some things that could not be exposed here.

Fortunately, the hot water was still enough, and the two of them took turns taking a hot bath, but they washed out the fatigue of the past few days. Merlin insisted on finishing her daily diary, and she couldn't help but lie down...... After a while, I fell asleep.

The next morning, Master Lan Li personally came over to invite Merlin and Rosalie to have breakfast together, and after eating, the two hurriedly parted - the former was on a sortie, and Merlin and Rosalie were in a hurry to return to the headquarters. After the two sides blessed each other, they hurriedly said goodbye, and there was a time when they would gather and separate, and no one knew if the two sides would still meet.

On the way back to headquarters, Merlin and Mage Rosalie encountered more than a dozen hunting squads in the Wilderness Forest, and the mages learned that they were the first mages of the hunting squad, and their initial misunderstandings dispelled at once, and they admired Merlin for being able to escape in that situation, and it seemed that they were not hurt much.

When Merlin and Mage Rosalie returned to their headquarters from a teleportation array on the mountain, they found that the streets were almost full of mages, but most of them were second-level mages and first-level mages. These first- and second-level mages followed closely one third-level mage, and in this way, they formed one small hunting team after another, heading towards the unknown battlefield.

"Could it be that all the mages of the Wilderness Forest are gathered here, are they going to drive them all into battle?"

Merlin asked Mage Rosalie in disbelief, she knew that this time the Wilderness Forest had summoned almost all the official mages back in order to guard the headquarters, but if they were put on the battlefield, what was the difference between that and sending them to death?

"No way. Master Rosalie shook her head and replied in the affirmative, "Of course it won't be like that. ”

Mage Rosalie explained to Merlin, "These are all mages gathered from all over the headquarters, and some mages who are guarding in other headquarters. The headquarters must have its own considerations, and it will not sacrifice these people in vain. ”

Merlin nodded, she wasn't going to argue with the other party, after all, the positions of the two sides were still different.

After the two returned to the headquarters first and handed in the mission, they said goodbye to each other, the leader of the hunting team is Mage Rosalie, and the mission report is naturally for her to go, maybe someone will investigate and collect evidence from Merlin, but that's another story.

After separating from Master Lian Zhixuan, Mei Lin returned to her mage tower, she didn't say anything to anyone, and when she returned, she collapsed on the soft bed...... Not only was she physically exhausted during this time, but her mental tension had exacerbated her exhaustion several times, and only in her own mage tower could she feel safe mentally.

At noon, Merlin came from her slumber, and after the servants had brought enough food, Merlin finally ate her meal as usual, and after a little activity, she began to meditate after reading the accumulated documents for a while.

In the afternoon, when Merlin was meditating, she heard someone visiting outside the Mage's Tower, and when the servants brought the person into the hall, Merlin knew that it was Master Raymond, and Merlin was also very happy to see that her old friend was safe.

"Hehe, Mage Snorr, it's really you, I couldn't believe it when the soldier said it! Mage Snorr, are you okay!" As soon as he entered the door, Mage Raymond carefully looked at his former companion, but Mage Merlin was wearing a mask, and he couldn't see much change in his appearance.
