Chapter 57: The Caravan

When she woke up from the past again, Serena rubbed the wand the size of a palm in her hand, as if she was reminiscing about something, as if she was making up her mind. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 Info Looking at Serena's painful appearance, Boss Todd knew that although things were a little cruel, they had reached the point where they had to make a choice, and some things hurt better than short, and making an early decision was a good relief for both of them.

"I've decided, Uncle Todd, I'm going back to my father!"

"Alas, Serena, did you really make a decision, and you won't regret it?"

"Yes, Uncle Todd, I have thought clearly, my strength is too weak, I want to go back to my father's teaching, I want to be a strong man, so that I can make him really think of me! I don't want him to be obsessed with my face anymore!"

"In that case, I'll prepare for you! You'll be on your way in two days!" Boss Todd held out his hand, like a loving father, and straightened the hair around Serena's ears.

Serena, the blonde girl who made the decision, nodded lightly after hearing the words of the boss Todd, picked up the panther lying on the bar and left the bar. Then, the candlelight in the hall flickered, and the whole hall fell into darkness, and tonight, it also became a final turning point in the lives of many people in Fernando City, and the culprit of all this, the well-fed and well-fed cyan dragon Raja Kuwib, was lying in a cave east of Fernando City at the moment, contented lying on the hill-like gold coins dreaming.

The sun rises in the east, the morning glow spreads a layer of gold on the earth, everything is like it, slowly waiting to be released, swaying woods, green meadows, and occasionally a wild lily pokes out white petals, telling the beauty of the day.

Bathed in the early morning sun, a medium-sized caravan on the avenue outside Fernando is moving slowly, if someone observes carefully, they will find that these people's eyes are unconsciously staying on a young man who is also wearing a standard mercenary attire and riding on a black horse that is extremely miraculous, he is Krazer who left Fernando City, and he looked back at the tall walls of Fernando City that gradually disappeared at the end of the road behind him, helplessly stroked Thanatos who was yawning with a wide mouth on his shoulder, sorted out his lost mood, and chased after the caravan slowly moving behind him, and it didn't take longThe majestic town he had fought for gradually disappeared from his vision.

"Wizard Krezer, I am honored to invite you to join the caravan guard this time, I believe that we will be safe on this journey!" In the middle of the caravan, a middle-aged man with a round figure of about thirty-five or sixteen years old leaned out of a spacious carriage, his hair was carefully groomed and neat, and the smile on his face showed that this person had excellent cultivation, he leaned out half of his body and smiled and complimented the approaching Krazier.

"Don't say that, Jersey boss, it's not my credit to be able to defeat that dragon alone, it's the result of everyone's hard work, and I'm just one of them!" Krage smiled sheepishly, obviously he didn't want to monopolize the honor.

"Wizard Krezer, you are too modest to say this, but I didn't expect that when I came to Fernando City, I would encounter the dragon attack on the city, and I didn't expect that the more famous mercenary groups in the city were not there, and the people I brought alone couldn't reach the destination safely, so I had no choice but to find a lone mercenary to protect me, but what surprised me was that I was able to recruit you, a magician who had participated in the repulsion of the dragon attacking the city, and this is the most surprising thing for me! At that time, I heard that you came to accept the commission, but I was surprised! I didn't expect you to really come, and with your joining, I believe that this mission will be very easy. The Jersey boss wiped the beads of sweat from his face and praised Kreeser.

But Krezer did not reply, but waved his hand and rode towards the front of the caravan.

Looking at the long caravan Kreeser couldn't help but think back to his original intention to invite the dwarf Camosiddo to set off with him, and then to go to Berkeley City while accepting the commission, how nice it would be to treat this long-distance mission as a long journey! Unfortunately, the dwarf Camosiddo accepted the commission of the city lord to go to the imperial capital with the guards sent by the city lord to escort Kreuzer, so he set out on the road again after two days of recuperation in the hotel, so that he and Tanatos were the only ones on the road together.

But before leaving, Kratzer wanted to say goodbye to the blonde girl Serena, but was told that she had left Fernando City yesterday, and the boss Todd asked to buy the drunkard's spring recipe and painted a wonderful business opportunity for him, but Kratzer always felt that if the recipe was sold, it would first go through the original owner of Old Jack, after all, Old Jack had not had a rumor for so long, so Frazer refused Todd's boss's request. Looking at the boss's disappointed expression, Krazer had no intention of continuing to live, and it happened that the caravan of the Jersey boss was recruiting mercenaries to escort the guards, so he signed up to be the caravan's guard, but he didn't expect the owner of the caravan to hear that he had accepted the commission, and immediately regarded it as a savior.

"Wizard Krezer! Wizard Krezer, please come here!" Listening to the shout from the carriage behind him again, Krizer rolled his eyes helplessly, and rode towards the carriage behind him with a rein.

"Is there something wrong?" Jersey boss!" Krizer asked helplessly, looking at the excited Jersey boss.

"Wizard Krezer, don't nag me, I've been thinking that if you are here, we can skip the next town, Kelowna, and we go straight to Palo Alto through Antelope Canyon, what do you think of my idea? ā€

"You are the employer, you should arrange all the routes, how can you ask for my opinion! This matter is up to you, it doesn't matter which way I go, I want to get to Barstow as soon as possible." Krazer smiled and didn't give advice.

After saying that, he walked towards the side of the guard, and the boss of Jersey sitting in the carriage only looked at Kraser's back and pouted and did not say anything, he did not dare to complain to a magician.

"Leon, come here!" but the Jersey boss rolled his eyes and shouted to a burly warrior in black armor on the other side, this time without the politeness of Frazer.

"What's the matter? Mr. Jersey. A middle-aged man in black armor strode over, making a clicking sound with the armor on his body.

"Let's stop and rest first, I decided not to go to Kelowna, we'll go straight through Antelope Canyon and go to Palo Alto. Said the Jersey boss.

But when he heard this, the warrior in black armor suddenly changed his expression when he heard it. "What? You're going to take the Antelope Canyon road, why? Why don't you go as planned?"

Jersey waved his hand and said, "You know that we have been delayed in Fernando City for several days, and if you can't get to Barstow on time, you know the consequences, I don't need to say it!"

Remembering the consequences of not being able to reach his destination on time, the warrior in black armor immediately stopped moving.

"But luckily, we were able to recruit the magician who participated in the Battle of the Dragons, so that we wouldn't have to follow the usual route and go straight through Antelope Canyon, so that we could arrive early, and maybe we would be rewarded without being punished!"

"Okay! this time you are the person in charge, I am only responsible for security, everything is up to you, if there is nothing to do, I will go first, since you are ready to change the original route, then I need to sort out these scattered mercenaries, it is too undisciplined, once there is a battle, it is simply sent to death. Seeing that the boss of Jersey had made up his mind, the warrior in black armor said helplessly.

"Okay, don't complain, don't you recruit these unsuccessful mercenaries just to let them stand in the way when necessary, it doesn't matter if you can't fight, you can just send them to death. The Jersey boss said disdainfully.

But the warrior in black armor, who was about to leave, turned around sharply and glared fiercely at the Jersey boss. "I don't think I heard that, otherwise I wouldn't mind reporting the specifics of this mission to my boss. Including things where you accept something privately. ā€

After saying that, without waiting for the boss of Jersey to have any other explanation, he turned around and strode towards Krezer.

The Jersey boss looked at his back with disdain and muttered. "Fool who doesn't know how to be flexible, sooner or later I'll kick you out of my caravan. ā€

"Wizard Kreeser, the boss of Jersey has decided to change his route and go from the Impossible Canyon to Palo Alto, do you have any opinions?" asked the warrior in black armor with a respectful expression after walking to Kreeser's side, for a magician, his status is far higher than that of many people.

"Oh, it's Captain Leon! I don't have a problem with changing the route, I'm just a mercenary, I'm only responsible for security tasks, you can decide the rest!" Krizer said expressionlessly as he looked at the middle-aged man in black armor.

Captain Leon looked at Krazer and didn't say anything more, just turned around and shouted orders to the others.

"What? Diversion to Antelope Canyon? What's going on? This doesn't match the mission route!"

Krazer listened to the whispers of the mercenaries around him, and just looked into the distance, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Listen, everyone, now we are diverted to Antelope Canyon, so if you want to quit, you can quit now, but once you quit, it means that the employment agreement is terminated, and we will not pay any commission. If you have no comments, now pack your things and get ready to go. Leon, dressed in black armor, shouted on horseback.

"This idiot, what a stupid home!" said the Jersey boss sitting in the carriage with disdain as he looked at Captain Lyon, who was running back and forth.

After a while, the long convoy under the command of Captain Leon slowly turned its direction and moved in the other direction of the fork in the road, this time the caravan was marching through the woods, and Kreizer looked at the gradually dense woods around him, and could not help but think of the more than a month he had lived in the forest of Mistrikreiss, and when he was looking around, he suddenly noticed a dark shadow flashing in the woods not far away. Kratzer narrowed his eyes, thought for a moment, patted Thanatos, who was lying on his shoulder, and pointed to the place where the black shadow disappeared not far away, and with a whoosh, the latter disappeared into the woods like a black shadow.

As the procession weaved through the woods, Kraser surveyed the woods on either side as the procession slowly advanced, and by the afternoon, the entrance to the canyon was clearly visible.

"Take a break in place, we're going to enter the Canyon of Imperability, everyone cheer up, you should all know the danger of this place, so you must cheer up, as long as we cross the canyon in front of us, we will be safe." Captain Leon, dressed in black armor, shouted.

"Captain Leon, please come here!" Kraezer beckoned to Captain Leon.

"I'm busy, I'm busy, and it's a dangerous place ahead, so I'll need to patrol it a little more. Captain Leon, who was wearing black armor, said a little anxiously.

"There's an ambush in the canyon ahead, think of a way! I'll know how much!" said Kraser, glancing at him.

"What? how do you know? How many are there?" asked Captain Lyon, whose expression changed dramatically when he heard Kreser's words.

"I don't know, I just know that there is an ambush ahead, you are the captain of this caravan, you can discuss this matter with the boss of Jersey! I'm going to meditate!" Krazer said, closing his eyes and not talking again.

Captain Leon, dressed in black armor, gave Krizer a complicated look, then turned and walked briskly towards the Jersey boss's carriage. Krazer looked at the two people arguing fiercely, then at the mercenaries who were packing up, sighed and looked at the dark entrance to the canyon not far away, and then looked at Captain Leon who left with an angry face, Fraser couldn't help but sigh that he didn't know how many people would be able to get out of this canyon alive.

"Alright, ready to go. Captain Leon, dressed in black armor, drew his weapon and shouted loudly.

As the team slowly walked into the canyon, Kraser looked at the smooth cliffs on both sides, and slowly walked forward with the team, constantly observing the surrounding terrain and recalling Captain Leon's words in his mind.

The topography of this Antelope Canyon, like the bottom of a lake that has been dried up and cracked, if it is rubbed by a huge sandpaper with irregular textures, the entrance is only one person wide, but it hides the magic of nature, which was once the habitat of the pronghorn antelope, and there are often antelope roaming in the canyon, but under the hunting of humans, the pronghorn antelope has moved away from this place. Since then, it has become a haven for robbers and bandits, but because of its dangerous terrain and its location on the edge of the Mystrica Kerises Forest, it is a shortcut to the city of Palo Alto, so it has become a place of desire for criminals. The Opdoth Empire has also tried to encircle this place several times, but each time because the bandits here got the news first and hid in the forest of Mistreikerises, and most of the caravans passing by here knew that as long as they paid enough money, the bandit groups entrenched here would also help the passing caravans, and over time this place became a place where the Opdoth Empire did not care.
