Chapter 21: The Killer Strikes

At night, a large amount of magical elements are quickly absorbed by Solo and transformed into magical power. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The accumulation of magic power bit by bit means that Solo's strength is slowly improving, and I don't know when Solo has liked this feeling. The feeling of increasing strength, like an addictive drug, allowed Solo to keep going.

Perhaps, for others, cultivation is a kind of torture. However, for Solo himself, cultivation is a way for him to enjoy life, and Solo is very satisfied with this way.

"Oh no! There's an enemy coming. Keith, who was sleeping, opened his eyes sharply and shouted loudly, his face visibly solemn.

The voice containing spiritual power directly woke up all the mercenaries in the camp, and there was no panic on the faces of the mercenaries. Obviously, the mercenaries in the mercenary squad are already old mercenaries, and they are not the slightest stranger to this situation of encountering enemies at night.

Solo opened his eyes and saw Keith with a solemn face, and he couldn't help but show a little doubt on his face.

"Uncle Case, is there really an enemy coming?" asked Solo. You know, Keith has been in the tent all along, and in this case, how did Keith find the incoming enemy?

"Yes, let's go, let's gather with the mercenaries first. Keith said with a solemn face, he saw the look of doubt in Solo's eyes, but now was not the time to explain. After saying that, Keith walked directly towards the center of the camp with Solo, with a look of worry in his eyes that could not be concealed.

At this time, all the mercenaries had gathered in the center of the camp, and the mercenaries all took out their weapons and looked at the surroundings with a wary face.

Seeing Keith's arrival, these mercenaries couldn't help but show a little relief in their eyes, there was a magician in their team. In battle, the role of a mage is very large, and as a mage, Keith can undoubtedly play a great role, which can make the mercenaries much easier.

"Case, you're here. Roger couldn't help but look a little relieved when he saw Keys coming.

"Well, what's going on?" asked Keith with a nodding and a solemnity on his face that couldn't be dissipated. The look of relief in Roger's eyes disappeared when he saw the solemn Case, and he realized that this time the enemy was not simple. Otherwise, Keith wouldn't be like this.

"The brethren have found their tracks and hope that they will be able to retreat on their own. Roger said to Keith, a glint in his eyes.

"Be prepared, the other party shouldn't retreat easily. Keith said in a low voice, his wand already in his hand.

Glancing at Keith deeply, Roger had some doubts in his heart, he didn't know why Keith said this, and now he could only hope that Keith was wrong.

"Be vigilant for me!" Roger said loudly, a large knife had appeared in his hand, and there was a slight light on his body that began to flicker, which was the light that belonged to the fighting spirit.

Solo on the side looked at all this, with a look of doubt in his eyes that could not be concealed, he did not expect that an enemy would choose to attack the mercenary team. The mercenary team that dared to enter the Demon Beast Mountain Range all had good strength, what kind of enemy did they dare to choose to attack the mercenary team? Thinking of this, Solo couldn't help but look around, wanting to find the enemy's traces.

Keith noticed Solo's movements and stroked the top of Solo's head, a deep look of determination in the depths of his eyes. Keith already had some guesses in his mind about the enemies who came to attack, and now Keith could only hope that the mercenary team would be able to hold out. Otherwise, Solo would definitely be in danger.

Thinking of this, Keith showed a little thoughtfulness in his eyes, and his gaze fell on Jimmy's. In a moment, Keith walked towards Jimmy with Solo, a glint in his eyes.

"Jimmy, this kid is up to you, you have to protect him!" Keith walked up to Jimmy and said to Jimmy, his face serious.

"What, I'm a warrior, and Solo is only more dangerous if he follows me. Jimmy said directly, he was going to charge, and taking Solo with him would only make Solo more dangerous. Looking at Keith suspiciously, Jimmy didn't know why Keith didn't let Solo stay by his side, knowing that Keith's strength was the strongest.

Moreover, because Keith is a magician, Keith needs to stay in the rear, and he has the protection of many mercenaries. It can be said that Solo is the safest to follow Keys.

"Uncle Case, I can protect myself. Solo said to Keith, a serious look in his eyes.

Even though Keith saw the seriousness in Solo's eyes, Keith still shook his head resolutely, with Solo's own strength, he still couldn't protect himself. Looking at Jimmy, Keith had a serious look in his eyes, wanting Jimmy to stay and protect Keith.

"There are a lot of mercenaries in the mercenary squad, so having one more of you doesn't make much difference. This time, you don't need to take the lead in the charge, you just need to protect Solo with all your might. Keith spoke again, his face cold. A hint of menace came from Keith, making Jimmy's expression stunned, and he realized that if he didn't agree, then Keith would definitely choose to make a move without hesitation.

Noticing this, Jimmy's eyes flashed with a hint of helplessness, and he could only nod slightly.

With a light footstep, Jimmy came directly to Solo's side, touched Solo's head, and protected Solo.

"Uncle Case, you really don't have to protect me. Solo looked at Keith, his eyes filled with helplessness. Although his body is a child, he actually has the soul of an adult, and Solo believes that he can protect himself.

Hearing Solo's words, a little helplessness flashed on Keith's face, he bent down and whispered to Solo: "The enemy this time is not simple, it should be the killer who pursues you, with your current strength, you don't have the slightest power to resist at all." ”

"What?" Solo couldn't help but show a deep look of horror on his face, he didn't expect that these enemies would actually come towards him, which Solo didn't expect. Recalling the methods and strength of those killers in his mind, Solo showed a little bitterness on his face, with his own strength, he was not the opponent of those killers at all.

Raising his head to look at Jimmy with a puzzled expression, Solo showed a little relief in his eyes, with the protection of Uncle Jimmy, he should be safer.

"Jimmy, protect him!" Keith said to Jimmy again, his eyes filled with solemnity.

Under Keith's gaze, Jimmy nodded heavily, his face showed a little solemnity, and said: "Don't worry, as long as I, Jimmy, still have a breath, then I won't let the enemy hurt Zoro." ”

Gently patting Jimmy on the shoulder, Keith had a look of satisfaction in his eyes as he walked towards Roger, who was not far away.

Solo looked at the back of Keith leaving, there was a deep fiery color in his eyes, his fists were already clenched, he needed more strength. I regret that I don't have a lot of strength, if Solo has a lot of strength, then Solo doesn't need anyone to protect him at all.

"It's all arranged, what is the identity of that kid?" Roger asked as he looked at Keith who had returned, a little doubt flashing in his eyes.

Without the slightest change in his face, Keith had already expected Roger to ask himself like this, and said with a chuckle: "It's nothing, it's just an apprentice I accepted, and it will be of great use in the future." ”

"He can't die now, I let Jimmy protect him, you shouldn't mind. Keith added, a glint in his eyes.

"Haha, of course it doesn't matter, the strength of our mercenary team is very strong. Giving Keith a deep look, Roger laughed and said, not objecting. The enemy is coming, and Keith, as a magician, has a great effect. In this case, how could Roger choose to turn against Case.

"That's good. Keith whispered.

In the camp, as time passed, the mercenaries had already prepared everything, and their faces couldn't help but show a little solemnity.

Although the mercenaries are full of confidence in their own strength, when they really face the enemy, any mercenary will be extremely serious, and it is no longer the usual appearance. The atmosphere around him became solemn, so that Solo, who was following Jimmy, couldn't help but show a little solemnity on his face, and he could no longer find the slightest hint of relaxation in his eyes.

"Whoosh" "Whoosh" "Whoosh"

Numerous feathered arrows struck at the mercenaries, and the mercenaries' faces did not show the slightest panic, and the shields in their hands were raised high to protect their bodies. After a round of feather arrows, none of the mercenaries were injured, which made Roger's face show a little satisfaction. These mercenaries are worthy of being old mercenaries with more than ten years of experience, and they are worthy of being brothers who have followed them for more than ten years.

"Archer, shoot back!" cried Roger, his longbow fully drawn, and the feathered arrows in his hand flew out like lightning.

At the same time, some of the mercenaries took out their longbows from their backs, mounted their feather arrows, and shot them into the dark forest. Although the feathered arrows may not kill the enemy, the feathered arrows have a clear deterrent effect, warning those enemies not to act rashly.

"Ahh

A small scream came from the dark forest, which made Roger can't help but smile a little, it seems that this time the enemy is not strong.

Keith on the side looked at the forest in confusion, how could the enemy who came to attack be so weak? This made Keith a little hard to believe, how could a weak enemy attack these mercenaries? Thinking of this, Keith couldn't help but warn: "It's not over yet, be careful!"

The smile in his eyes dissipated, replaced by a clear look of vigilance, and Roger also felt a little wrong in his heart.
