57 in the caves
"What's the situation!?"
Riding a tall horse, a general led a team of cavalry to support.
But moments later, he gave the order to fight back.
Because a large circle of icicles was distributed in a circle and attacked directly at this cavalry team.
Rumble!!
The stirred up ice chips made people wonder if the cavalry could hold out. But they survived, after sacrificing a dozen men and horses frozen into ice sculptures......
"Shoot back! The troops behind us will soon follow! Wait for the magician to come! Everyone, hold on!" Wei Ken felt a little familiar with this general, but he couldn't remember who it was for a while.
It seems to have been with Allig and Sovas before, what is it called?
"Run!"
Wei Ken pulled Reaya, who had not yet reacted, and ran directly towards the other place, trying to get rid of the pursuers behind him.
Rather than remembering the identity of the general, Wei Ken focused more on whether he could escape from here with the spoils of war.
"What the hell, what the hell, what the hell is going on!" Reaya didn't dare to think about it, so she had to follow Wei Ken to the side indiscriminately.
And the battle situation behind him has become a natural barrier.
May these soldiers be lucky!
Yes, they were lucky...... Because the Ice Ring Cone Spike was no longer continuing, the terrifying mass attack stopped. and—
"Hahahaha!!"
Allig laughed arrogantly and raised his sword aloft. The green above his head seemed to be the most dazzling brilliance in the silver-white world.
"Let me see what I have encountered! Although we did not go out with General Prese to kill the enemy, and we still had to patrol such a ghost place, we still met the enemy, and we were able to accumulate glory and merit!
On the side, Sovas smiled and licked his mouth.
"Of course, my cousin! I am so lucky! Although there are magicians in the enemy, the general has sent a mage down!
Behind the two, two men dressed in robes and with hooded faces slowly stepped forward on horseback.
Fierce blades of wind and flames erupted, smashing in the direction of the enemy.
They don't care about forest fires, they don't care about the exact location of the enemy, and widespread destruction has always been a strong point for mages.
"It's really unfortunate to meet them at this time......" Wei Ken frowned slightly, and quickened the pace of running away with Reaya.
"You strange soldier, what the hell are you- isn't that your troops!?those two look like nobles, where are you going!"
"Those two guys aren't a good thing, I don't trust them. Wei Ken replied lightly, and directly pulled Reaya into the forest, and the figure disappeared from the sight of the army that was fighting, not having time to pay attention to them.
However, the bombardment of magic seems to have turned into a unilateral attack by Allig and Sovas, and the attacks of the trackers have stopped. It's like - just evacuated.
......
Wandering into the forest again, Weken found an underground cavern and hid in it without much thought.
"Hoo, ha, ha!" Reaya was exhausted, she felt that the fatigue of the past seven days was enough to cover all the hard work of the past.
Pampered her, where can she withstand this kind of running, at this time she is dizzy and retching.
Although Reyaya's body is not bad, compared to a workout maniac like Wei Ken, it is not a star and a half worse. What's more, she was seriously ill not long ago, and she almost had to meet her ancestor. The body that has not recovered, and if it is tossed like this at this time, it is finally unbearable at this time.
"I'm so tired, I'm so tired...... Hooha, hoo...... Whew-h
"Hold on. Fearing that his booty would die, Weken gently stroked her back to smooth her breathing.
With the light coming from the entrance of the cave, Weken peeked inside.
"Huh?" the hand kept stroking Rayaya's back, but Weken's eyes were drawn to the inside of the cavern.
"Phew, ha! huh!" Reaya seemed to slow down a little, "Princess Ben, I don't want to watch a war anymore...... Huh?"
She also notices that something is wrong inside the cave.
"Here, it seems to be an underground cave, and there is even an underground river that leads to nowhere. Weken nodded and lowered his hand, "And, what do I care more about, what are those on the wall?"
"Luminous mushrooms?" Reaya was a little surprised, "This kind of place is usually magical, dark, and rich in water vapor to grow this kind of luminous mushroom...... It is often used by magicians as a magic material for night lighting......"
"Precious?" Weken nodded.
"It's not precious, it's cheap, and almost everyone uses it. Reaya shook her head, puzzled, "But, why are there glow-in-the-dark mushrooms here? As far as I know, the Wind and Rain Forest doesn't seem to be a place where magic materials are produced. ”
"It doesn't matter, all in all, it's safe for the time being. Wicken looked behind him at the entrance to the cavern, and finally looked ahead.
There is light here, and there is an underground river not far away, and it looks like the water should be unpolluted and drinkable.
"Huh......" Leiaya also relaxed a little, but then, her little face became bitter again.
She is a prisoner of war, where is there any safety to speak of?
"The chains are gone...... Weken looked Reaya up and down, wondering what else he could do to tie her up.
"Don't!" Leiaya hurriedly shook her head, "Anyway, there are people chasing and killing this princess outside, as well as your army, and I can't escape!
"I see. Weken nodded, then flipped Reaya to the ground, forcefully tearing her skirt open.
"What do you want to do!?" exclaimed.
Has he always been unable to suppress the beast nature in his heart?
"I know your winter dress has pants underneath, so I tie your hands with strips of cloth torn from your winter dress. "I'm not naïve enough to let a prisoner go. ”
"You're a bad person, you must be the worst person in the world!You don't have a gentlemanly demeanor!" Reaya rolled her eyes and scolded helplessly, "I really don't know what kind of education you have to do such a shameless thing!"
"If the face can be changed to live freely in this world, I think many people will abandon it directly. Wei Ken tied Rayaya's hands and nodded slightly, "But in fact, you shameless nobles live a thousand, ten thousand times better than those who respect and love themselves. ”
"Crooked heresy, nobles who have glory and pay attention to reputation are not shameless bastards like you!" Reaya was furious, "The nobles rule the commoners, the nobles have dignity, and the commoners think that the nobles are proud of their dedication! This is a tradition that has been passed down on this continent for thousands of years, how can you allow an uneducated guy like you to comment!"
Wei Ken directly ignored the scolding and solemn defense of the glory of the nobility, and began to observe the cave carefully.
Where does the underground river lead? Depending on the flow of water, there should be a lot of space underneath. These strange, glowing mushrooms fill the walls of this place, illuminating the cavern. The ground is not too wet, one could even say dry.
"But don't talk about that now, let's have a little more energy. Weken took out his dry food, took out his water bag, sat down next to him, and prepared to eat.
It's safe now, but I don't know what to expect, and no one is sure when they'll be able to sit down for a meal next time.
"You, will you eat?" asked Wei Ken, raising the bread in his hand and turning to Reaya.
"Cai, don't eat!" Reaya was still proud.
"Gollum—"
But her stomach is very honest.
"You're hungry, and, not in general. Weken calmly nibbled on the dough and poured a sip of water.
"I-I'm not hungry!"
"Gollum—"
"Very unconvincing. ”
Weken handed over a piece of bread.
Reaya bowed her head and was silent.
"Just, just eat, a little bit ......" the mosquito screamed, almost making Rayaya's face burn.
