Chapter Forty-Seven: Leaving Manshu

Seeing Boledo and Salci away, Merlin also began to think, she probably knew Sarchi's intentions, but it was undoubtedly stupid to leave her fate completely in the hands of others, and she had to be prepared.

Her gaze turned to the ring on her hand...... The cause of today's dispute lies in it, I thought I would be able to live a stable life for a few days, but now it seems that I want to think again, I hope this ring will not disappoint me.

According to the Hebrew script in the ring, she can summon the Ring Spirit after remembering the spirit, and with her current strength, she can summon three kinds of Ring Spirits...... Looking at the relatively small space in the house, Merlin pouted, went to the courtyard, and began to summon for the first time.

When the ring is turquoise, it will summon a sour poisonous lizard, which is a green, shoulder-high nearly two meters, body (tail) length of four and a half meters of Balke lizard, hand-to-hand combat is the inherent attribute of the lizard, its most powerful attack is the acid attack, Merlin tried to let it spit out a mouthful of acid to a stone the size of a human head in the yard, the result is that the stone is gone, leaving only a shallow pit on the ground.

"Both the corrosive power and the speed are stronger than spells or potions of the same type...... And it's strong. Merlin nodded in satisfaction.

These rings can be used not only to assist in attacks, but also to be used as meat shields when necessary - they will dissipate and return to the ring to recuperate after a certain amount of attack, but they will not disappear completely.

When the Ring of Balke turns gray, a gray-white bird-catching lizard appears that is only one meter long and about a foot tall at the shoulder. This lizard blends in easily with its environment and is the best lurker, skilled at rock climbing, tree climbing, and even walking on the ground in swamps, and its special ability is to spin silk webs. It spits out thin silk, thinner than a human hair, but tough and sticky enough to even stick an adult up and hang from a tree.

The silvery-white Ring of Balke summons a sword lizard, a tiger-sized body with blade-like bone spurs on its head, back, and tail, and metallic scales on its body. When it comes to combinations, this lizard is equivalent to several mid-level knights, and it is also the kind that wears metal armor.

To summon them, mental power is consumed, and the more powerful they are, the more spiritual power is consumed. Normally, a summoned Ringwraith can exist for about eight hours, but in combat, the duration of its existence will be shortened depending on the intensity of the battle, and a lizard can only be summoned once a day.

"Can you make them exist a little longer?" Merlin muttered to herself.

The next day, I couldn't walk around the street. Merlin continues to experiment with her summoning skills...... This time, she personally used the sword to fight with the sword lizard, and of course her martial arts strength was a complete defeat, but fortunately, the sword lizard's control was very strong and did not hurt her.

After five hours, the sword lizard's form began to fade, and it seemed that it was about to disappear immediately. Merlin hurriedly injected spiritual power into the ring...... It's useless;

Seeing that the sword lizard could disappear at any time, Merlin suddenly blessed her heart and injected a wisp of nebula into the dissipating ring spirit...... A colorful brilliance flickered slightly, and the sword lizard's originally virtual figure gradually became clear, and it became lively again.

……

A week later.

The night fades away—a quiet night is a little long for the vigil, but a little short for the sleepy. When morning came, the last night guard woke up the people who were still asleep.

Merlin came out of the tent, she woke up earlier than the others, not only finished meditating, but also went to the forest to practice swordsmanship for a while.

She set off with this caravan belonging to the Kaiya family four days ago, and there was nothing on the road ahead, but the closer she got to the border, the more the danger factor quietly increased, and she was worried that the caravan guards were not so alert, so she had to patrol the surroundings by herself in the morning and evening to feel at ease.

As the caravan woke up, the whole grove seemed to be stirring, and several of the women who accompanied the caravan began to prepare breakfast...... That is, broth, bread, barbecue, and the like.

Everyone silently finished eating their share and began to pack their bags.

Of course, Merlin doesn't need to do anything, she only takes care of her own personal belongings, and she's the only two people in the team who can enjoy the carriage treatment...... The other was the steward of the caravan, a fellow named Krupp, who was said to be a cousin of Boredo.

"Lindsay, have you been to the kingdom of Farouk?" Merlin asked casually, standing beside the carriage.

The coachman, who was in his forties, was inspecting the carriage, his thick fingers not pulling a certain part to check that they were secure.

"Yes, sir. ”

Hearing Mei Lin's question, he hurriedly replied respectfully, "The caravan goes to the Farouk Kingdom once or twice a year, and every time I walk here, I am worried about it, because this territory is not only infested with bandits, but sometimes the regular armies of the Farouk Kingdom and the Seria Kingdom will also make cameo appearances as bandits and enter each other's territory activities. But speaking of which, Borivia is a good place, much better than Manshu. Lindsey still had a little frowning when he talked about Bolivia.

Merlin frowned slightly, "And the robbers?"

"yes. But now it's a lot less. One of Lindsay's guards said, "I am from the Kingdom of Farouk, and when I first came here, I encountered two or three waves of thieves on the way, and the brothers together died nearly half before they escaped. ”

"It seems dangerous. Merlin muttered under her breath.

"Danger must be gone! Leave now!" The captain of the guard in the distance was discussing with the steward, but for some reason, he suddenly raised his voice, and everyone's eyes immediately focused on that side.

As if sensing everyone's gaze and uneasiness, Mobik, the captain of the escort, lowered his voice and said to Krupp: "Mr. Steward, we must not stay here, it is precisely because of the presence of robbers that we should leave here as soon as possible." ”

"Okay. I don't know if it was Mobik's persuasion that worked, or because of the fear of the robbers, Krupp finally ordered the entire caravan to speed up its movement and prepare to leave.

Perhaps he had heard about the robbers, and the people who had been a little lazy just now were like taking hormones, and their movements were unexpectedly fast, and in less than a quarter of an hour, the caravan set off.
