was scolded, Algert was not angry, it should be said that he had been scolded by Gloria for antibodies, and even after getting used to it, it was uncomfortable not to be scolded for a day, and he always felt that something was missing. He looked at the embarrassed Gloria, and was shocked in his heart, he didn't expect the eldest sister to be beaten so badly. He immediately took out painkillers to relieve Gloria's pain, which would at least ease her pain.

Gloria took the potion, and it was a while before she was finally able to sit up. She clutched her abdomen and frowned, although the pain was unavoidable, it was already within her reach.

"Big sister, what should we do next?" After a short break, Algert asked.

"Merlin just stole my ring, she will definitely leave the forest as fast as she can, if she is allowed to get out of the range of the forest first, then the victory of this game will be Magic Lanka's. So you have to leave as soon as possible and get ahead of her. Now, you take the ring and go first, and I'll walk back slowly. ”

"No kidding, big sister...... You're injured and don't have much combat power, and if something happens to you in the forest, your grandfather will skin me. Algert thought of the dean's temper and said depressedly.

"But I'm just a ...... now"

"Then I'll carry you on my back." Algert said suddenly.

"You carry me?"

"Come on, it's the only way." As he spoke, Algeret turned and bent down, gesturing at his back and motioning for Gloria to climb up.

"This ...... All right. Looking at the boy with his back to him, and after a few seconds of contemplation, Gloria agreed.

Somewhat awkwardly, he wrapped his arms around Aljet's neck and held his body in place to make sure he didn't fall off. She was wearing full-body armor and had a certain weight, but that weight wasn't taken seriously by Aljet.

But just two steps away, Algert suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?" Gloria wondered, wondering why he stopped.

"Big sister, you've got me......"

After hearing this, Gloria couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then her beautiful face was flushed with anger, from her face to the root of her ears. She raised her hand and gave Aljet a slap, gritted her teeth, and said viciously.

"Shut up, you idiot."

――

The other side.

I don't know how far I've run, but after thinking that the distance is about the same, Merlin finally stops. She took out the magic guide that searched for the golden egg and looked down at the pointer above. There were two hands, one pointing to her right hand, which held the ring she had just stolen, and the other pointing behind her, the direction she had just fled from Gloria.

Looks like she's already joined up with Algert. Merlin guessed.

She was initially surprised that the pointer had split in two, having discovered it while chasing Gloria. The small pointer in the wizard was only half the width of the larger one, the small one pointing in the direction Gloria had left, and the large one pointing to the place where the emperor bird was. At that moment, she understood that there must be two golden eggs hidden in Algert's body, and Gloria was just a decoy, but instead of going back to meet her teammates, she chose to continue chasing Gloria. It would be very difficult to stop an exceptionally agile man like Algert from escaping, not to mention that his strength was not low, as could be seen from his head-on confrontation with the Emperor Bird. However, Gloria is different, she is injured, and no matter how strong she is, the success rate of winning the golden egg is much higher than that of Algert.

And now, the ring in her hand proves that she was right.

From misleading Gloria into putting a certain amount of mental pressure on her by making her think that she was a magic swordsman, to stealing the ring quietly when she was lax, she had already calculated, and she knew that Gloriag would never think that her ring was stolen and not used as a trophy for victory in battle. By the time the other party knew that the ring had been lost, he would not even be able to find the figure. Don't think that the aristocratic lady can't steal things, as a person who has been working hard outside since she was a child, Mei Lin has met a lot of thieves and thieves, and even "humbly asked" some livelihood skills from them.

Shaking her head and shaking off her distractions, Merlin took out the golden egg from the ring, which took on a golden oval shape, like an egg magnified a hundred times. Merlin had only glanced at it for a few glances before putting it into the ring, and there was no time left to examine it, as she had an important business to do.

With a wave of her hand, three more rings appeared in her hand, they were Felix, Edwell, and herself, she had asked for the rings of the two of them in advance, and now the rings on Edwell's hands were bargains she had bought at the store for copper coins, just ordinary rings made of steel.

Then, she put the ring containing the golden egg into another ring, like a nesting doll, one by one, and put three layers of blockade on the golden egg wrap. The corners of Merlin's mouth curled slightly, and then she took out the magic guide, and she found that when she only used three rings, the pointer on the magic guide was still pointing to the ring in her hand, but when she opened the distance between the ring and the magic guide, the extra small hand was combined with the big hand again. The three rings actually isolated the magic fluctuations of the golden egg to the minimum!

Merlin was sure that all this was almost as she thought, the three rings were almost imperceptible to the magician, and the four rings further completely isolated the magic fluctuations of the golden egg, and the extra ring was the one she stole from Gloria.

Everything was going according to her plan, and Merlin breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, if one of the steps deviated, maybe she would be the first to go out.

Looks like the game is over, Merlin sighed in her heart. Algeret wouldn't leave Gloria behind, and her dearest eldest sister's head was badly wounded, which would slow them down, and if she left the forest quickly, the victory would be Magic Lanka's.

But......

I can't eat Ellie's food. Merlin expressed regret that during the time she walked out of the forest, she could only eat some unpalatable and unpleasant dry food.

Picking up the map from the spatial ring, Merlin prepares to return to Osford alone. With a map in her hand, she had a lot to ask at the mention of this thing, but she didn't know who had invented it, only to find out that every store in Osford that was run by the student council sold it, and the price was not cheap, and only students in Osford could get it for free. Although the one in his hand was provided by Osford for free, it was only because she was one of the three warriors of the game. Merlin couldn't imagine how this thing was made, it was Osford's hack, because there was only one place in the world that had a map of living spots. But the most regrettable thing for Merlin is that it can only be used in Osford, and as long as it is out of Osford's port, the map will not work.

Entering the magic power, her coordinates appeared on the map, and Mei Lin saw that she was still on the periphery of the forest, as for why she rarely encountered other magical beasts along the way, it was probably because the breath of the emperor bird scared them away.

Comparing the distance from your position to the entrance of the forest, if you travel faster, you can reach the entrance in about two days. Merlin calculated in her heart, and without hesitation, she put away the map and set off.
