Chapter 18 Accepting the Mandate Full of "Lies".

"Your strength may not come from human ......"

Yu Mu, who got up early to forge his body, was practicing alone in the Forest of Trials, and he couldn't let go of Teacher Nangong Bai's words last night.

The instantaneous body technique that he had comprehended could only be done in this world by opening his mind and turning into a human form of Chongming Bird, so how did he obtain this power? Did he also experience a great sacrifice of alien beasts during the period when he had no memory, or did he come from somewhere else, and did the gods and ghosts really exist......

Wooki looked up at the sky, and he wondered if the invisible sky really lived with gods and ghosts like legends, and if his power also came from there......

With a long sigh, a towel to wipe sweat was put on his shoulder, Yu Mu bought some breakfast at the entrance of the academy, thinking that Teacher Nangong might also eat together, so he bought more meat, eggs, double plus rice paste.

When they came back, Nangong Bai and Wan'er were already waiting in the courtyard, Wan'er's eyes were wide open, and she looked at Yumu who came back.

"Rice—"

Yu Mu put down the wooden basket, sat down, flicked Wan'er who was staring at the basket, squinted and said, "I thought you were waiting for me, can we have some energy?"

Wan'er grabbed a meat and egg in the basket and sent it to her mouth, but she didn't stop her mouth like this: "Can you ...... Yes...... Delicious!"

"I also said yesterday, today is the first time to go out after the division of the task team, the division of the task team is different from the teacher and student system in the school, there is no upper limit on the number of students that the teacher in the school can take, but the task team, a teacher can only take three students. Nangong Bai stuffed a bun, took out a bamboo tube, poured out a roll of paper, untied the tied ribbon, and read: "D-level mission: Sent by the country of Kui, protect the pharmacist Gangxingna and return to China." ”

"Pharmacist Gangxingna, where are the others?" Pharmacists are scarce talents in major countries, and Wan'er has some expectations.

"You've seen it, it's the kid in your house. Nangong Bai pointed to Wan'er's house.

"What? He's younger than me, a pharmacist in need of protection?" Wan'er was a little speechless.

Yu Mu looked down the side of the house, and a twelve or thirteen-year-old child walked out and said, "Polite." ”

Gang Xingna glanced at Yu Mu, his little face was a little worried, and asked, "Do you really send this little brother and little sister to protect me?" Father said that it might be ...... on the road Some dangers ......"

Nangong Bai felt that this kid had something to say, but he didn't pay much attention to it, patted his head and said, "It's okay, D-class missions are generally not dangerous, and I will accompany them." ”

"I haven't been to another country in a long time, so happy!" Wan'er stretched, her clothes slipped off her arms, and it was very comfortable to bask in the sun.

Nangong Bai thought about it and said to Wan'er: "After all, it's a mission, so let's change into a light outfit." ”

Wan'er pursed her lips, and dragged a long voice with a reluctant face: "Okay~"

Yu Mu carried his bag, shook his neck, and was also a little expectant, "I haven't been anywhere else, just don't get lost." ”

Hearing Wan'er and Yu Mu say this, Gang Xingna was still not at ease, and pulled Nangong's white clothes and said, "Uncle, is it really no problem, I went to study alone in various countries when I was eight years old, and none of them have ever been out, young lady......"

Nangong Bai raised his eyebrows and grinned, "Eight years old running all over the world, why are you afraid of this and that?"

After a while, after Wan'er packed her clothes, the group of people carried their bags and went on the road.

Jiu Ge waited outside the academy early, saw everyone, understood the task, and walked towards Jiayu Forest together.

"To the north through the Jiayu Forest, there is a shoal, and after the shoal, you will reach the country of Kui in less than half a day by boat. Gang Xingna said, pointing to the north.

As he spoke, a fox jumped on Jiu Ge and squeaked twice and jumped away.

"It's not good, stop it!" Jiu Ge shouted at Nangong Bai, who was walking in front.

Nangong Bai turned his head, "What's ......?"

As soon as he said a word, two flying needles suddenly appeared from behind the trees on the left and right, and the silver light flashed and shot towards Nangong Bai.

"Bell—"

I saw Nangong Bai teleport backwards by one position, and the two flying needles collided together.

As soon as they dodged the flying needle, the two figures had already gone to the side, attacking left and right, and a row of thin blades on the finger tiger on their hands.

"Be careful!" Yu Mu flew over, but the distance was far away, and he saw that the two masked men had already approached Nangong Bai's body.

Wan'er took a step back, "Water Blade!" Divide the three water blades, protecting Gangxingna behind her, in case someone else sneaks up.

Nangong Bai squatted down suddenly, and his fists slammed upward, hitting the chests of the two of them.

The masked man flew out in pain, and one caught a glimpse of the child standing behind him, brushing with two flying needles.

Wan'er cicada feather fan swiped backhand, and the water blade flew out and shot down one of them.

"Not good!" Seeing that there was another flying needle shooting backwards, Wan'er immediately controlled another water blade beside Gang Xingna to turn sharply and flew forward, wanting to shoot down the flying needle, but it was too late.

"Brush!"

With a short voice, Nangong Bai appeared in front of Gang Xingna, grabbed the flying needle, and shot back with his backhand to kill the masked man.

The rest of the people didn't wait for everyone to make a move, black blood flowed out from under the mask, and he fell to the ground, already on his own, Nangong Bai briefly checked the corpse and stood up.

"Jiu Ge, is there still an ambush around?" Nangong Bai stood in front of Gang Xingna, observing the surroundings, and asked Jiu Ge at the end.

Jiu Ge walked forward, shrugged his shoulders, and said to Nangong Bai: "Teacher Nangong, there should be no ambush in this generation. ”

"Okay, be vigilant, and get out of the forest. This time, everyone put away their previous hangers, raised their vigilance, and headed north.

As a beast clan, Jiu Ge can understand the words of a hundred beasts, and in this forest, his ability to obtain information is even higher than that of Nangong Bai.

"How so...... In an emergency, Teacher Nangong Bai doesn't need to say that Jiu Ge can be the first to discover the threat, Wan'er knows how to prioritize the protection of the mission target, the spell attack distance and protection range are excellent, and he only knows that he stepped forward blindly, and he didn't help at all, who can he protect if he goes on like this......" Yu Mu reflected while vigilant around.

Out of the forest, everyone came to an open shallow, the ground was full of gravel and some stagnant water, and it was not very convenient to walk.

After finding a piece of dry land, everyone sat on the ground, Nangong Bai handed the water bag to Gang Xingna, and asked, "Let's talk about it, this is not the scope of the D-class mission, do you have anything to tell us?"

Gang Xingna took a sip of water from the water bag and muttered, "We don't have many people who understand pharmacology in the country of Kui, so I was sent out to study pharmacy since I was a child, and now I have learned something and want to return to the country...... But if I go back, the interests of the merchants of Yamanokuni, who provide high-priced medicines for our country, will be damaged, and I think it is because of this that my father will delegate the mission...... You let me go back by myself...... Sorry for fooling you guys......"

"Mountain Country ......" Judging from the task level, according to the regulations, it is possible to refuse the commission, Nangong Bai thought about it, looked at everyone again, and comforted: "We will follow this mission, but all the information you know that may be useful must be provided to us, and the mission to escort you back to the country of Kui will end." ”

After hearing this, Gangxingna held back her tears and nodded.

In a small town not far away, a merchant in the Land of Mountains receives information about the assassination.

"Failed assassination, idiot!" the merchant slammed his cup on the ground.
