Night.

Located in the desert in the central region of Jagon!

The countries of the Edak region are built on oases, and as soon as they are close to the city, they enter the rich land.

But once you leave, it's easy to head into the desert......

There are many deserts between one city and another, and it is difficult to build roads because the conditions are too special and the cost is huge...... Only two large cities that are close to each other may still have a chance.

The direction of the capital city of Jagon is also the largest city network in Jagon, connecting seven or eight urban agglomerations in an entire area.

It is also the largest and most populous settlement in the entire desert.

But a slightly remote place......

Walking in the desert is inevitable.

That's why the big Ironhoof Oxen and Wyverns are the best means of transportation here.

Most of the countries of the southern continent that went to the capital to pay tribute had some trade with Jiagon, especially the gold and medicinal materials produced in the desert area, as well as the relatively precious beast materials.

Every year, the southern countries buy a large number of beast treasures, and then through the alchemists to craft them into various enhancement potions and resell them, even more valuable than ore!

It can be said that it is a good thing to make friends with the most powerful country in the desert.

And some tariffs can also be reduced on goods from your own country......

Late at night, I will not walk on the desert, but choose a relatively quiet place to rest.

The tributary contingent consisted of more than 2,000 people, led mainly by several countries close to the Edak region, such as Kesselke, and several regions on the southern continent...... Relatively close to this side is Keselke.

"I didn't expect the night in the desert to be colder than I expected. ”

A fire was burning, and several people sat around a campfire.

A group of 2,000 people, from above, it looks as spectacular as a village lit up.

"Hasn't Lord Bercy been to the desert before?"

Said a man sitting across from him.

"If you ask me about the nights on the sea, I've slept countless times, but I've never been to the desert!" Bethsy, as a diplomat sent by Kselke this time, had the first task of making routine tributes, and secondly, to make an observation report on the current situation in Jagon.

Because a lot has happened in Jagon in the past year.

Jagon, who has never participated in the battle, has actually started a war with the great powers in other regions!

Although he won in the end, it is estimated that this Liang Zi will not be able to alleviate it in a short time, or the two countries will be hostile at the top level in the longer term.

The second is that the son of the previous empress actually returned...... No one knows what this will look like for the entire desert nation.

For the sake of future interests, Keselke needs to have an understanding of the current situation in Jagon.

This is the basic foreign policy for the development of the country in the future......

"Not to mention the sea, this trip made me uncomfortable for a long time. The man said.

"Hahaha...... That's that you're not used to it yet. ”

"I don't think anyone will get used to that kind of shaking, and I knew I was done with this trip when I got on the boat. ”

"Hahaha. ”

The two laughed again.

Relatively speaking, travel is much less stressful than being in the country, which can be regarded as a kind of release, so several diplomats have a good conversation...... Despite their own ghosts.

"But I have to say that Jagon is indeed a country with a long history, and if you look at this desert, you can imagine that hundreds or even thousands of years ago they left the footprints of countless people. ”

"Maybe it's just the footprints of an iron-hoofed cow. ”

"It's possible!"

He raised his eyebrows and continued to eat the hot food in his hand.

"I've heard in stories that the witches of Aedak are also very interesting, they ride through the desert on a magic carpet made of magic lines...... A delicate figure in the moonlight, accompanied by her elegant little black cat. ”

"You may be hearing some kind of elegant story, I haven't heard that before. Bethesy replied with a smile.

"Maybe!"

The people around me still insisted.

"If there is, it must be a high-level wizard, otherwise who can make a flying magic carpet... ”

That's when ......

The desert wind blew suddenly.

"The wind seems to be getting stronger. ”

Percy stood up.

Just a second ago, the place that was still good actually took off.

"When the wind blows, everyone lean a little, let the camels lean on the periphery, and the goods are put down first. "Someone in the depths of the camp roared, adding a magical amplification effect for everyone to hear.

The whole team began to get busy.

But it still seemed strange to Bethsy.

The previous few days of resting in the desert did not have such changeable weather.

It's an unpredictable place in the desert!

"Someone. ”

"I found someone on the periphery!!"

At this moment, a sudden voice woke up the two people who were still chatting.

"An enemy attack, an enemy attack. ”

"Ready to fight ......"

Everyone didn't expect that there were still attackers in this country, and there were quite a few.

The wind and sand began to rage, and even the tracks of magic began to appear in the flow of the gravel...... The sand actually came to life, and turned into standing sand people rushing over.

Bercy hurriedly retreated to the center of the line with another responsible high-ranking official.

Nothing like this has ever happened, and there are still people rushing to attack in Jagon.

"Stop them and protect the goods!"

This is to hijack the goods.

This is the first thing that comes to mind......

However, the figure made of gravel did not rush directly towards the group, but walked to the place of the campfire and dispersed directly.

The yellow sand fell, and the fire of the entire camp was extinguished in an instant.

For a moment, the whole surrounding area suddenly darkened, and only a faint moonlight remained.

"Warlocks trap those enemies and hold them back...... Don't let them kill the animals. ”

The commander outside shouted, but the inner Bercy, who was standing at the moment, didn't know what to do, he was a diplomat and not a combatant, he could only watch his soldiers fight, and he needed to hide behind them.

Whoever came to rob, who came to rob!

That's right.

It occurred to Percy that there were two things in these tributes that were very precious.

One is the Alchemy Stone, and the other is the Wine of Imimmortality.

Find them and protect them!

There was chaos all around......

The enemy, who suddenly rushed out of the darkness, had already rushed into the ranks with the help of extinguishing the bonfire.

Bethie staggered to the tent in the middle of the camp......

The place is not large, but it is deliberately placed as a cover for the cushion like animal skin, and as long as you open it, there is a small box underneath.

Breathe a sigh of relief.

"It's still there. ”

"So it's here!"

The burst startled him, and Percy turned his head to look.

Isn't the person standing at the door one of the people who sat by the campfire together, what's it called?

Because the tributary team was mixed with people from several countries, I only thought they were allies at the time, but I didn't have time to ask for names.

"Why did you get here, now there are enemies outside, we have to hide...... Wait for the warriors to drive the enemy away. I don't know why Bossy suddenly felt that the person in front of him seemed to be strange.

It's an ally, but it's not like it.

A woman with short hair who looks to be in her thirties.

Dressed in luxurious clothes......

"No, I'm just following you. ”

"Follow me...... Come here?" Bethesy was puzzled.

"Of course, otherwise how would I know where what I want. The girl's voice laughed.

Only then did Percy hear that the other party's voice had changed, no longer the woman in her thirties, but a girlish voice.

Like the trembling of waves, the other party's hair began to grow gradually

Silvery white.

The appearance also began to change, from an older woman to a girl with red lips and fair skin......

Outside the tent, a black, red-eyed raven pulled down the curtain.

"You...... Who the hell are you, and what is the purpose of your attack on us!"

Bethie kept backing up, his feet trembling uncontrollably.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not one of them. ”

The girl stepped forward.

"I only work for myself......"

"No, no, no...... Help me. ”

............

The tent was opened again, and the tall wizard's hat rested on his head, walking gracefully.

Her slender legs were dressed in black silk, and she was draped in a magic cloak behind her, and her graceful figure was graceful and beautiful...... The silver hair stands out in the moonlight.

Meow~

The call of a black cat on the roof.

"I almost forgot about you, Lucy, but I'm glad you stayed outside, let's go when we have the stuff. ”

The black cat barked again, as if in response.

The girl jumped on top of the tent with the box......

At this time, I noticed that at the feet of the black cat, a special color blanket was covering the top of the tent.

Magical luck.

One person and one cat can actually stand on the magic carpet and rise into the sky!

There was also a raven in the rear.

Ah~

High in the sky, it is still a scene of two groups of people fighting.
