Chapter 197: Master-Apprentice Relationship
"President, we've found traces of other elves. Just then, a magician flew over and reported.
"Is it friendly or enemy?" Lin Qian asked.
"Enemy troops, they are gradually encircling here. "Although the magician was a little strange, he did not panic at all, because the queen's troops should not be far away, and once the fight started, the other party could not take advantage.
"Send a signal, tell the Elven Queen that you can come here and annihilate them in one fell swoop. Lin Qian commanded.
"Really?" Meryl sneered, "Are you sure she'll be here so soon?"
"Oh?" Lin Qian pretended to be puzzled.
"Do you think I'm going to take you to the right place?" Meryl said coldly, "Yes, I'm prepared to use your words to persuade you to surrender, but I don't think it matters to you. The most important thing for you is that she!"
Before the words fell, Meryl quickly rushed towards the carriage, Lin Qian wanted to cast a spell to block it, but she easily dodged it. The magicians around the carriage were stunned for a moment, and she rushed in without even having time to react. Meryl picked up Salandis, who was wrapped in layers of white cloth, and flew straight into the sky.
Only then did the magicians on the ground react and unleashed their magic to attack Meryl. The intense magical suppression forced her to increase her altitude again until she had reached the limit and could hardly fly upwards. Meryl muttered a spell when she saw an eagle descend from the sky and fly towards her. With one foot on the eagle's back, she was able to dodge all magical attacks and prepare to fly off into the distance.
At that moment, a black shadow flashed through the sky at a rapid speed, and Meryl was hit hard, spurting out a mouthful of green blood and falling from the sky. The black shadow followed and tried to snatch the girl from her arms, but Meryl quickly adjusted, landed under a large tree not far away, put one hand on Salantis's neck, and said coldly, "Don't come!"
The black shadow then fell beside her, and Lin Qian and a group of magicians also surrounded her, blocking all of Meryl's escape routes. When Lin Qian and the others were about to take it down in one fell swoop, there was a sudden sound of footsteps and the sound of piercing the forest around them, and then countless elven magicians rushed over from outside, as if they had surrounded the place, led by a white-haired elf old man.
The magicians in the field immediately panicked, because after sending the signal just now, they had not received any news from the queen until now, but the elven clan elders had already rushed over first.
"I am the Second Elder of the Elven Clan. Lin Qian, I've heard of you for a long time, so it's better to work together to deal with that woman. Although the old man looks old, his voice is very rich and full of energy, and it sounds like it will not be a problem to live for another twenty or thirty years. As soon as he came up, he reported to his family, and then directly persuaded Lin Qian to surrender, obviously a person with an anxious personality and did not like to grind.
Before Lin Qian could speak, the black shadow next to him spoke first: "Second Elder hasn't seen you for a long time, I didn't expect to be so anxious." ”
"Cynthia?" Meryl wondered when she heard the owner of the voice, "aren't you following the queen......
"No," Cynthia said, shaking her head as she lifted her black hat and black scarf, "I think you're mistaken. Her Majesty was followed by my twin sister, but the two of us looked so similar that we even had the same voice. ”
"So, it wasn't you who showed up at the banquet that day, you were the demigod-level master who appeared near the palace that night!" Meryl said with certainty.
Lin Qian then thought that the Ten Thousand Soldiers Phantom King said that there was a master who was leading him out, and that should be Cynthia.
"Very smart, since you already know my identity, I advise you to let go of that girl quickly, I can spare you from dying. Cynthia threatened in a cold voice.
"It turns out that the queen has been sending you to protect her secretly, and I really underestimated that vicious woman. Meryl wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, slowly stood up, and said coldly, "What if I say no?"
Cynthia took a step closer and continued to persuade: "The queen has long suspected you, but she doesn't want to do anything to you because of her old feelings, and when I sent the little princess back that night, I was secretly lurking around. I saw the fight between you and Lin Gongzi, but I didn't make a move, if you continue to be obsessed today, I don't mind killing you ungrateful slut for Your Majesty. ”
"Slut?hahahaha......" Meryl looked up to the sky and laughed wildly, and suddenly threw the "zongzi" in her arms into the sky, and the second elf elder over there had already sensed it and flew over in an instant.
Many magicians under Lin Qian hurriedly went to stop them, not wanting the strength of these two elders to be transcendent, and while dealing with the opponent while maintaining the same speed, they flew towards this side, seeing that they were about to come to the front. Cynthia didn't have time to take care of Meryl at this time, and flew to stop the second elder, and only her demigod-level strength could compete with it.
Cynthia's magic was very strange, and her whole body was covered in a black mist. This layer of mist is both a means for her to conceal her form and a weapon for her to transform into any form to fight the opponent. Just as the Second Elder stretched out his hand to snatch the princess, Cynthia's mist turned directly into a sharp arrow and shot at the Second Elder's head. The second elder saw that his goal was about to be achieved, but at this time, he killed a demigod-level opponent, but he couldn't ignore this blow, so he had to concentrate all his strength to strike several air ripples with one palm, shattering the black arrow.
"Hurry up and save the princess!" Lin Qian hurriedly ordered the magician to stop the attack and take this opportunity to go to the air to meet the princess.
The scene was rather bizarre, with Salantis being wrapped in a white cloth and thrown high above the ground, and then free-falling from the sky at the highest point, with the two above fighting fiercely and the magician below frantically flying into the air to catch the falling princess.
However, in the end, neither side got their wish, a white light flashed, and suddenly there was an old man in the air, holding the target of the two sides, and landing on the ground not far away, it was the Phantom King of Ten Thousand Soldiers.
"Teacher...... Thanks to you. Lin Qian was stunned for a moment, stepped forward, and wanted to take the big "zongzi" from the old man's hand.
"Stop!" the Ten Thousand Soldiers Phantom King suddenly shouted at Lin Qian.
Everyone immediately looked at the shout, and even the two demigods in the air stopped fighting, because their target was now in the hands of another person. The pair stood only a few meters apart from each other, but everyone could feel that they were far apart, not even in the same world.
"What's the matter, teacher?" Lin Qian's footsteps stopped, his thumbnail clenched tightly on the pad of his index finger, almost pinching blood.
"Lin Qian," the Ten Thousand Soldiers Phantom King had never called him by that name, but his tone was a little softer than before, "Cooperate with us!"
At the same time, the second elder of the elven clan also fell beside the Ten Thousand Soldiers Phantom King, and said with a smile: "Big brother really accepted a good student. ”
The words "cooperation, big brother" fell into everyone's ears, and Ren understood that Lin Qian, the teacher, was actually the great elder of the elf clan!
"Finally...... Are you going to tear your face?" Lin Qian seemed to be smiling on his face, but there were tears in his eyes.
The Ten Thousand Soldiers Phantom King, or the Great Elder of the Elf Clan, was slightly stunned, and said calmly: "It seems that you already knew. ”
"No," Lin Qian tilted his head slightly, withdrew the tears from his eyes, and shook his head slightly, "I would never believe that the person I trusted the most would betray me, unless it happened. ”
The Great Elder was a little surprised, could it be that until just now he was still hoping that he could hand over this girl to him, but he ......
"Kid, I'm sorry. The old man had a thousand words in his heart, but it was difficult to say, he knew how hard this matter hit Lin Qian.
"Teacher, do you know?" Lin Qian's tone was a little excited, "Do you know how many flaws you have exposed?" But I don't believe it, I don't believe it at all! Even if I later learned your identity, I still thought that you would help me, at least neutrally, and I didn't want to help. You won't know how much I want you to confess to me these days, then I will be desperate to betray the queen and turn to you even if I am infamy!"
The Great Elder closed his eyes with some regret, he didn't want to tell Lin Qian his identity earlier, but he couldn't be sure if Lin Qian would choose to join him, so in the end, he could only use Elena as a threat. If it weren't for Lin Qian's participation in the battle of the elves, maybe he would never know all this, he would still be the president of his magic guild honestly, and he could still be his kind teacher and teach him all the magic knowledge, but all this is impossible.
"Forced by identity, it has to be so. The Great Elder thought for a long time, but still admonished, "Actually, if you cooperate with me now, we are still master and apprentice, and I will send you back after the matter is completed." ”
"Do I still have a choice?" Lin Qian sighed helplessly.
"Lin Gongzi, you have thought clearly!" Cynthia was a little anxious, did Lin Qian really want to betray the queen for that human princess?
"Do you want me to meet with the teacher?" Lin Qian asked rhetorically.
"You have promised that Her Majesty will treat you well!" Cynthia had no words to convince him, so she could only question him with such a sentimental tone.
"Really?" said Meryl, who was seriously injured, with a sneer, "just trying to make him die for it." Lin Qian, although you and I have had unpleasant experiences, none of this matters, once we cooperate with each other, we will be friends forever. ”
"Even if this cooperation is under the premise of threatening?" Lin Qian walked over to her and asked coldly.
Meryl suddenly felt uneasy, but she still pretended to be calm and replied, "This is not a threat, but a prerequisite for mutual trust, we will not do anything to that girl." ”
"Mutual trust?
As soon as Lin Qian finished speaking, he suddenly made a lightning shot, and his whole body moved quickly, directly taking Meryl.
The Great Elder frowned and looked at the Second Elder on the side, who had already rushed over with Lin Qian's figure, but halfway through, he suddenly saw Cynthia blocking the way, and the black mist rushed towards him.
"Stop!" the Great Elder hurriedly shouted.
At this time, looking at the situation in the field, Lin Qian pressed one hand on Meryl's head, and she fell into the spiritual world, with a painful expression on her face.
"Now, we have the same chips. Lin Qian looked at the teacher he once admired the most and said calmly.
