The vast Gobi, the blue sky is dotted with white clouds like cotton wool, the lonely poplar and the sparse barley reveal endless desolation in the long wind and sand, the melodious camel bells accompany the footsteps of travelers and caravans gradually drift away, time flies, time flies, time flies, years like a shuttle, tracing the long river of history, imagining the vicissitudes of life, a qiē, a qiē are like a mirror.

In the birch forest in early autumn, the yellowed branches and leaves are rustling in the wind in the sun, like butterflies dancing, and like whispering, stopping at the stacked fallen leaves, looking at the boundless emptiness in the distance, the heart is like washing, quiet and empty.

From Sylmara in Elanisson to Wahran on the border of Granmussen, avoiding the crowds as much as possible, it took them five days to reach the final town on the road to Saranya.

Fearing the power of the Radiant Church in Wahran and avoiding the attraction of the vultures, Charan had no choice but to settle in the birch forests in the remote Wahran area.

"We're going to stay here for three days, and I want to see what you've promised me."

After setting up a hidden tent in the forest, Xia Lan found Winnie and said bluntly.

"No problem." Winnie said simply, "But you have to make sure that I won't be disturbed by accidents for three days." ”

"I've carefully observed this woodland, and there are basically no people here who deviate from the trade routes to and from Wahran, and even if there are unexpected business trips here, I will deal with them in advance!" Xia Lan said in a flat tone.

"Looks like you can't wait." Winnie squinted.

"Sarania is my last resort, and I don't want to see the worst happen if I can." Charland Road.

"But things tend to turn out the worst you expect." Winnie scoffed.

"So you'd better pray for a qiē shun lì." Xia Lan said meaningfully.

"I understand. Because it's your last chance. Winnie understood what Charan meant. The whole person seems to be full of indifference.

Leave all the materials and tools for making the zuò potion in Winnie's tent. Xia Lan ignored Winnie and walked away, some words were silent, they knew each other, why waste their lips and tongues.

Granmusen is a country dominated by agriculture and animal husbandry, but Wahran, located in the desert of its eastern frontier, is a famous trading town dedicated to reaching out to merchants from Middle-earth in Elderland.

According to early historical records, Wahlan was originally a place rich in water and grass, but due to climate change and excessive human economic activities, the land was desertified year by year. Finally almost integrated with the Sarannian desert.

Had it not been for Eldran Middle-earth's frequent desert travelers to trade, Granmusen might have abandoned this remote city in the desert early in the morning.

The Sarania Desert, which has been spreading and expanding for countless years, has severely affected the communication between Elderland and the western countries, and only a few countries that do not border the desert can travel freely, and some southern coastal cities may be able to solve the transportation problem by sea, but the countries located in the interior of Middle-earth have only two options, one is to spend a lot of time bypassing the desert, and the other is to directly risk crossing the desert.

For economic reasons, the countries of Middle-earth and the interior of Middle-earth often choose the latter without hesitation, and with the rich experience of their predecessors in crossing the desert, people are now able to travel back and forth calmly and peacefully.

Wahlan is the closest city at either end of the Saranya Desert. As a result, it was favored by business travelers, which led to the prosperity of the place.

"Charan. What are you thinking?! ”

Adelina silently walked over to Xia Lan, who seemed to be looking into the distance and seemed to be contemplative, and whispered.

"I suddenly remembered something that had been recorded in the historical documents." Xia Lan tilted her head and smiled at her.

"Historical documents? Something interesting? Adelina wondered.

"Yes, it records the different eras that mankind has experienced, and compared to what is recorded in historical documents, you will find that many civilizations and knowledge have been lost in this era." Xia Lan shook her head and said.

"Can you tell me more about it?" Adrina said with an interested look.

"Vultures, for example." Xia Lan stretched out his hand to the flying vultures resting not far away and said: "Perhaps the best means of transportation in this era is the flying vulture, but in the silver age when the alchemy industry was thriving, people made a large number of flying airships, even ordinary people could take them to and from all parts of the continent, but the advent of the natural disaster era has cut off many civilization inheritances......"

"It's a shame......" Adrina sighed.

"Yes, the people of that era were undoubtedly happy, freedom and prosperity reached a peak, maybe there is really a so-called boom and fall in the world, but such a wonderful era disappeared overnight." Charland Road.

"I can't see that Xia Lan is still a knowledgeable and emotional person." Adrina smiled.

Learned? Sensibility?

Xia Lan couldn't help but wonder, he liked this kind of misunderstanding.

"In the future, you will find more aspects in me that you don't understand."

"Future...... When the time comes, will we really be able to get out of trouble forever when we get to the desert? Adelina hung her head and kicked the pebbles at her feet in a slightly confused way.

"Don't worry, we'll find a place in the desert where we can stay." Xia Lan reached out and took Adelina into her arms and whispered.

"Really?"

"Really!"

……

……

"Haven't heard from them yet?"

In a room in the church of Amiens, the royal capital of Granmusen, Lord Virgian, a messenger from the Inquisition, stood by the window with his hands behind his back and muttered.

"My lord, the latest informant reports show that some witnesses have noticed two unidentified black spots in the sky that have disappeared to the east of Granmusen, and if nothing else, those two unidentified black spots should be the vultures ridden by the murderer." Joshua said indifferently.

"East?!" Vigian frowned lightly, "It's the vast Sarannian Desert, are they trying to escape into the desert to avoid our tracking?" ”

"It's very likely." Joshua said, "The Saranya Desert is vast, and not only is the terrain unpredictable. It's easy to get lost. The sandstorms that accompany us all the time will hinder our search. ”

"If that's the case. We're in trouble. Vigian said in a deep voice: "Recently, the Inquisition has been very dissatisfied with my delay in successfully pursuing the murderer. ”

"Do the higher-ups of the Inquisition want to remove you?" Joshua Road.

"Perhaps, it is also possible that the Inquisition will send a new responsible member." Virgin Road.

"Hunting down the killer doesn't happen overnight, and we need enough time to solve this problem, and losing patience too soon will only make our search more difficult." Joshua Road.

"I know, but the Inquisition doesn't think so." Virgin Road. "I'm afraid I've been labeled incompetent at this point."

"The intelligence information is insufficient, please forgive my subordinates for not being able to help." Joshua Road.

"You've done a good job, He's too cunning." Virgian was reassured.

This time. There was a sudden knock on the door of the house, and a deep voice came in.

"The latest news and intelligence from the Wahran region."

"Deliver the information quickly."

When Joshua heard this, he immediately spoke out the door.

With a creak, the heavy wooden door opened, and a young man in a white robe hurried up to Joshua and handed over a roll of paper.

Joshua opened the paper and quickly scanned it, before handing it to Virgin and saying, "My lord, the murderer's whereabouts have appeared!" ”

"Really? Where is it? Vigian perked up, took the paper and looked at it, and after a moment, he took a deep breath and said, "It seems that we have to go to Wahlan as much as possible!" ”

"Yes! The subordinates then went to prepare for the search and pursuit. Joshua said.

"No need, this time the old man will personally lead people to hunt down the murderer."

Outside the door. An old voice echoed through the room, followed by. Three people slowly walked through the open wooden door.

"Deputy Director! How did you get here? ”

When Virgian saw the man who entered the door, his face suddenly turned shocked and he exclaimed.

"Vigian! You've disappointed me. ”

The answer to Virgian was an old man with silver hair and a grim face, dressed in a black robe with dazzling gold patterns embroidered on the front and cuffs, and exuding an awe-inspiring aura all over his body.

"My lord, it's... Sorry ......"

Facing the old man in front of him, Vigian, who usually makes people feel high, bowed his body tremblingly like a child who had done something wrong at this moment.

"Let me introduce you, this is Master Antonio from the Tower of Mages, and this one is His Excellency Bivis, the Inquisitor of the Arbitrating Scales."

The old man ignored Vigian and directly introduced the two people behind him.

"This time, they will specially assist me in apprehending the murderer, and they will never let the murderer escape again."

Hearing the old man's introduction of the other party's origin, Virgian looked at the two people in front of him dumbfounded, of course he knew the great names of the Mage's Tower and the Arbitration Balance, but he didn't expect the deputy director to invite these people, and all of a sudden it gave people the impression that it was too much of a fuss.

"I know what you're thinking." The old man seemed to see through Virgian's thoughts and said coldly. "But I'm not going to tell you why."

"Your Excellen......cy," Vigian smiled bitterly, "May I ask what my subordinates can do for you next?" ”

"Come with me to Wahran." The old man said simply.

"My lord, can I bring my subordinates with me for this operation?" Joshua, who had been silent, stood up and said calmly.

"Yes."

The old man glanced at Joshua and nodded, then said to the middle-aged man from the Mage's Tower.

"Antonio, please."

The Antonio master was expressionless from beginning to end, and after hearing the old man's words, a golden-brown staff appeared out of thin air in his hand, and he saw him raise the staff high, and the surrounding law fluctuations fluctuated violently in an instant, and the next moment, all of them disappeared into the room, leaving the young man in the room who came to report the news in a stunned and stunned face.
