Chapter 250: The Hunt (2)

The cavalry ahead followed the trail of the clouded leopard into the woods, and Merlin knew that these guys were as hard-hearted as wizards, and the cavalry seemed to be unable to perform in the woods, but in fact, these mounts were their living shields. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

No matter how intelligent a beast is, it is also a beast, and when they miss the first blow, they tend to take their anger out on the nearest creature, and this short delay is enough for the hunters to form an efficient hunting circle.

A few obviously gilded guys were talking in a whisper about the ups and downs, what kind of country girl and a certain city socializer was good or bad, what kind of idyllic scenery and drunken gold fans...... Well, don't say, although these guys are a little shy, they are not all wine bags and rice bags.

In fact, the aristocracy and the families spared no effort in teaching their children, and as for moral character, it was really not in their consideration - if a pure and immaculate sheep was really taught in a living environment surrounded by wolves, it would be a real failure of education.

Merlin is the least worried about the clouded leopard's sneak attack in the team, not only because of her own strength, but also because of the three pets around her, and once she encounters real danger, Augustus will not stand idly by, and now those puppet swordsmen in Rubik Manor are under its control, including the two knight puppets, are ready to be released at any time to ensure her safety...... Of course, Merlin wouldn't do that unless she had to, after all, the existence of the Rubik block was to be kept secret.

At this time, Zia urged the war horse to come to her side, "Lord Merlin, just now Blake told me that there is an auction to be held in Bremen City, and I heard that a batch of things were shipped from another continent, including quite precious medicinal materials and good equipment, as well as many rare luxury goods, I wonder if you are interested in participating?"

"Auction?" Merlin muttered, "when will it take place?"

"Tomorrow. It is said that a fairy ruin was discovered overseas, and a fairy soft armor known as the light of the Emerald was found inside. ”

"Emerald Light, how is this possible?"

Merlin was a little surprised: "This fairy soft armor was once worn by the fairy queen and the legendary powerhouse Seanne, how could it be found in a ruin? I'm afraid that when this news comes out, that ruin is more important than this soft armor, right?"

"Hehe, my lord. ”

Ziya explained, "This Emerald Light is the most similar high-quality imitation to date, and it is also from the hand of the Fairy Clan's alchemist master. If it's genuine, where will it be our turn?, however, there are still a lot of things found in that ruin, and according to who still has the elf family's potion formula, I'm sure you'll definitely get something if you go. ”

Listening to Zia's tone, which seemed to be trying her best to win herself into this auction, Merlin felt a little strange, but when she glanced at Zia's seemingly evasive eyes, she suddenly understood: "Blake didn't want to propose to you, did he?"

"That depends on when he can be promoted to Grand Knight. Zia's tone was a little disapproving, but a flash of shyness on her cheeks still revealed her heart's true desire.

A gentleman has the beauty of an adult, although Mei Lin will not deliberately help, but with a certain interest base, she thinks she might as well go and take a look at the auction.

At this time, the cavalry team in front had entered a valley, and Brandy, who was walking in front, raised his hand to signal everyone to stop.

"If that's true, the clouded leopard should be hiding near this valley. Our family's territory is near this forest, and to put it bluntly, we all rely on this forest and the resources around it to feed us. If this clouded leopard is really occupied here, then the future of our respective families will be self-evident. ”

After Brandi finished speaking, his gaze swept over everyone's faces rather majestically, "Very well, it seems that we are on the same page, now, please take the potion that you gave you before you set off, it can dissolve the poisonous mist emitted by the clouded leopard." However, when you are in battle, it is better not to fight it in the fog, lest you be attacked by it. ”

After saying that, he took out a potion from his bosom and poured it into his mouth without hesitation, and it could be seen from his slightly frowning brow that the taste of the potion was not good, but for the sake of stability, everyone gritted their teeth and drank the potion.

This potion is actually not expensive, when Mei Lin prepared it, it was mass-produced at all, but she didn't pay so much attention to the taste.

After drinking the antidote, the cavalrymen dismounted, packed their weapons and shields, divided into small groups and began to search around.

"Zia, don't move. Seeing that Zia also wanted to move forward, Merlin opened her mouth to stop her. She could feel the clouded leopard watching nearby, but it was too nimble for it to pinpoint its bearing.

It's not just that she discovered the anomaly, Brandi and the others may be far inferior to her in terms of strength, but they are not lacking in experience. Although this is the edge of the forest, although there are no fierce beasts here in the past, there are still many small animals, and there is never a lack of insect chirping in the dense grass.

But today, though it was an animal, not even the chirping of insects was heard, and there was basically silence here, except for the thick green shade and a little life, except for the rustling footsteps of the cavalry and the occasional restless neighing of the horses.

"Look at the claw marks on this tree. A soldier spotted the clue and turned to beckon.

Brandi immediately walked up to the tree, escorted by several knights, and took a closer look...... After a while, he turned his head to Mei Lin with a somewhat ugly face and beckoned, "Lord Mei Lin, please come over for a while." ”

"Just stay here and don't move. Merlene's expression was a little solemn, and she could hear the uneasiness in Brandy's voice.

Riding to the tree where Brandi and the others were, Merlin jumped off her horse, "Brandi, what's wrong?"

"Lord Merlin, look at this paw print, it seems that there is something wrong with the rumors. Brandi said with some uncertainty.

"It doesn't match, it's so bad!"

Mei Lin leaned over and took a closer look, and shook her head slightly: "The width of the tip of the claw is twice that of the cloud-spraying leopard, and the body size is also one, two, or three times larger, this is a cloud-spraying tiger, not a cloud-spraying leopard." ”

"Damn, how could this happen?!" Brandy's face became more and more ugly.

He turned his head and was about to inform everyone of what he had just discovered, when suddenly he saw a scream in the woods not far from them, and a broken sack with a tossed strip in the shape of a parabola flew out of the forest and fell to the ground with a bang. (To be continued.) )
