Chapter 56: The Defeated Expedition (Fourth Update!) )

(ps: After the liver explosion ended, the author found out that he was going to die - well, he was actually tired of moving, and continued to beg for recommendation votes with a blank face.) Pen %fun % pavilion www.biquge.info to say that I change my posture every day like the hap game recommended by the old tomato to ask for a recommendation vote o(╯□╰)o)

The next morning, the expedition continued in gloom. Because of Qi Er's unexplained death, not only made everyone more alienated from Reina and his party, but also made each other suspicious of each other, after all, if only the Magister could become an exorcist, then everyone would have such suspicions, even if they had the strongest Magister of the Hom Kingdom by their side, it would not be able to dispel their fear.

"It's not going to go on like this......" Wolfgar sighed, pulling at his gray beard, "I have to think of a way to cheer everyone up...... Hiss, is there anything you can do? ”

The fiery red carriage beneath Wolfgar did not move.

"That's right...... This guy volunteered to spy on Reina, and now he is not sitting in the carriage at all. ”

And at the end of the carriage, Reina's carriage did not appear.

After receiving permission from Wolfga, Reina decided to postpone the advance and instead look for Xuanyi nearby, and finally show the point on the map given by Wolfgar to meet before the allotted time.

"Lord Monarch......" The afterimages of the firmament disappeared from Reina's surroundings one by one, "The firmament in this vicinity has also been searched, and no trace of Xuanyi has been found. ”

"Hmm...... You rest for a while, and I'll look for it. Reina was about to walk forward, but the sky grabbed his arm from behind.

"My lord. Xuanyi ...... There must have been some kind of trouble, otherwise she would never have left the lord's side easily......"

"I know."

"So......" Reina smiled as he revealed his left arm, the golden gem glittering on the silver bracelet, "we should have rescued her sooner, right?" ”

"Hmm......" Sky seemed to be encouraged, "I'll look for it again." ”

"Whoop, whoop!" Just as Reina and Sky were about to move again, Matthew flew towards them quickly in the low air with Bai Ze in his arms.

"Did you find anything? And Bai Ze-chan, are you willing to let him hug you? ”

Matthew carefully put Bai Ze on the ground, and then lay on the ground gasping for breath, "Army, army!" Many, many soldiers! ”

"Soldiers? It's from the Duchy of Heinz, right? ”

Just as Reina was asking, the sky pounced on Reina, dragging Bai Ze and Matthew to the shadows of the road downhill. After a while, the sound of neat steps came from the main road directly above them, and the shape of their armor could be seen in the shadows of the daylight—all fishtail helmets, a style of equipment unique to the Duchy of Heinz, and only when the sound of footsteps faded away did they dare to emerge from the bottom of the ramp.

"It's weird...... The position we are in now is obviously still in the territory of the Kingdom of Hom, and there are no special circumstances, and it is against the arbitration of the Holy Spirit and the Holy See that they cross the border without permission. ”

"Then it must be ......" Matthew looked at Reina in a daze, the sweat on his forehead sliding down.

"Some of us have revealed our whereabouts or told each other the purpose of our trip."

"Isn't it very dangerous to say that Mentor Wolfga?"

"Matthew ......"

"Hmm...... Boss, I understand, I'm going to go through the air and catch up with Mentor Wolfga. Matthew wiped the sweat from his face and was about to use the levitation technique to take off.

"Bai Ze, you go too." Reina said suddenly.

"Huh?"

"Matthew, is it okay to bring Bai Ze?"

"That's fine...... But what do you want to do, boss? ”

"Just take her with you, be careful."

"Hmm...... Boss, you too. ”

Reina and the Sky watched as Matthew's body rose into the air, then soared into the sky and disappeared into the sky.

"The Firmament...... Now it's just the two of us. Reyna muttered, "I don't know why, but as long as there are only two of us left, I'm so afraid to take the risk and give it a go." ”

"What about me...... It is time to especially understand the mind of the sovereign. The firmament stood in front of Reina, slowly pulled out his imperial weapon, and held it on his chest, "Because...... The firmament is the same. ”

"Not only for Xuanyi, but also for everyone on the expedition."

Reiner and the Sky quickly followed the previously marching Heinz army, and used the Heavenly Fury Sword Technique in the shadows, and the powerful aurora directly cut the formation of the Heinz army, and took advantage of the chaos of the army to capture a lone Heinz warrior.

From the captured soldiers, Reina learned that the target location of this force was exactly the same as the meeting point that Wolfga asked Reina to arrive.

"So...... My guess was correct. ”

"Have you seen a girl with blue hair and amber eyes?"

"Ahh Do you think that the witch with the twin swords in her hand will inspire electric light! Xuan Yi seemed to have left a deep and terrible memory in the soldier's mind, but it at least allowed Reina and them to find clues about Xuan Yi.

Reina and Sky smiled at each other, then continued to question the soldiers, "What happened?" ”

"Hmm...... Just this morning when I rested...... She swooped in, and before we could catch off guard, she snatched our captain's breakfast...... Then the pursuing soldiers were all ...... by Bilibili"

The soldier vividly depicted the scene, his body still twitching as he described, as if he had been electrocuted, as if he had completely forgotten that he was now a captive.

Reina and Firmament had embarrassed black lines on their faces, "That's all?" ”

"Hmmmm......" The soldier twitched and nodded frantically, it seemed that he was also one of the soldiers who were chasing Xuanyi at that time.

"If Xuanyi himself can move freely...... Why did she ...... Will you not return to the Lord? ”

Reina and Sky walked forward on the riverbank, one after the other, and they needed to think now.

"The Firmament...... Did you know,"

"Huh?" The firmament turned to look at Reina, her lord's face very solemn.

"The wounds on Qi Er's body were indeed caused by Xuanyi. This specially-shaped knife wound can only be created by relying on the sword qi released by Xuanyi's sword technique 'Thunder Quartet Slash'. ”

"But...... Xuanyi, she ......"

"But as we speculated last night, Qi Yi is the monster that has been encountered alive. In other words, it is very likely that Xuanyi met that 'exorcist', and out of some accident, she hurt Qi Er. To prove her innocence, she is now chasing the exorcist. ”

Reina was walking forward with his head bowed, when suddenly he was held by the sky.

"What if......" the firmament glared at Reina, "what if that exorcist ...... If it is related to the exorcist that the Lord met at that time, the Sky will swear to remove it from the Lord at that time. ”

"Hmm......" Reina smiled slightly, "we'll figure things out." ”

Since Xuanyi's safety has now been confirmed, but her route and whereabouts are difficult to grasp, Reina and the others decide to go to the rendezvous point first to see how the expedition team is doing.

There was a burning smell from the wasteland at the meeting point.

Reina and the firmament crawled forward, and found a large number of soldiers of the Duchy of Heinz at the place of convergence, the number of troops was far larger than the square team they encountered earlier, judging from their clothing, there were about ten water archmages, which means that their rank was at least above the seventh order - there were already nearly half of the elite magisters of the Duchy of Heinz here, and it seemed that even the approximate strength of the expedition team was clear to them.

The scattered soldiers searched for something valuable in the burned-out wagon, and even the earth dragon on the Ramsdragon cart was wounded, groaning and lying on the ground weakly, bound by the frenzied soldiers.

"It looks like the convoy was attacked here...... However, they didn't seem to catch anyone, it should be Matthew and they arrived in time. It's useless to stay here, so let's get out of here and figure it out. ”

"Obey orders, Your Highness Reina - Lord please be careful!"

Not far away, the chanting of the magic seal sounded—

"Water Magic, Sixth Order, Ice Spear Technique!"

The sky subconsciously stopped in front of Reina's body—before he had time to draw the imperial weapon.

At this critical juncture, the sound of a dragon's groan sounded from the air, and the scorching breath pressed everyone on the ground!

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! ”

The fire dragon formed by the convergence of orange and yellow flames completely engulfed the ice spear that stabbed at it, saving Reina and the sky from their predicament. And the owner of the two fire dragons, the fire dragon magister Hiss Puyol, was suspended in the air under the heat pressure of the fire dragon, and the narrow phoenix eyes stared at the countless soldiers and demon masters below, the wide red robes swelled and floated along the red flames, and Hiss's body was wrapped around the long body of the fire dragon, like a demon god of flames.

"It's the Magus of the Dragonburn Family of the Kingdom of Hom! Knock him down! ”

Countless ice spears, icicles, and bows and arrows were shot at Hiss,

"What are you hesitating about—get moving!"

The fire dragon coiled and danced, and the blazing flames completely engulfed the ice magic, but after receiving a round of attacks, the fire dragon's momentum was significantly weaker.

Reina and Sky also escaped from the Heinz soldiers under the cover of Heath and hid in a grotto.

At this time, Hiss also slowly descended and came to Reina.

"Mentor Wolfgar has led everyone out of pursuit, and has led the party into the ruins, with his mark on the way." Heath glanced at Reina and the firmament, "I'll take you to the entrance of the ruins in a minute." ”

"Lord Hiss...... The Celestial Lord of the Firmament thanks you for your rescue. As he spoke, the firmament plunged the imperial weapon into the earth, and saluted Hiss with the hilt of his sword.

"Hmph...... If your lord had been more cautious, he would not have always put himself and you in such a predicament. Hiss's words were still mean.

"Hiss ...... Take this. During this time period, Reiner had already taken out a green patch from the backpack behind him, held it and handed it to Heath, showing an apologetic smile, "You're hurt, right, that's the only way to stick it...... so as not to worsen the wound. ”

The sky followed Reina's gaze and found that some blood was indeed oozing from Hiss's right arm, but Hiss had not taken Reina's patch for a long time.

"It's just a small injury. Nothing to worry about......"

"What if...... If you've ever heard of Jones how he died in battle......" Reiner unexpectedly showed a tough side, and he pressed Hiss's arm, which made the usually unruly and calm Hiss also slightly stunned.

Reina pulled up Hiss' red robe, revealing the laceration on Hiss's arm, and applied the green patch to it, before retreating.

"Sovereign?"

"Then......" Reina regained his former gentleness, "Senior Hiss, please lead us to the entrance of the ruins—this is the most important task of this expedition, and we must not allow the parts of the Spirit Weapon to fall into the hands of other countries." ”
