Unaware of the bartender's sigh, Richard walked out the door before the bartender sighed, and took advantage of the afterglow of the setting sun to look north of the town and think quickly.

According to the bartender, the group of people who took the blue seal came from the north. After getting the blue stamp, it is very likely that you will also return in this direction.

The other party set out this morning, with a large number of people, riding horses and luggage, and not going too fast. In this case, although the other party takes the lead, he will not be able to catch up with the speed of the chase.

Then try it...... With a decision in his heart, Richard took one step, his body disappeared directly transparently, and the next moment he appeared dozens of meters above the ground, flying towards the town at high speed.

At this time, the last part of the western sun sank below the horizon, and the night around it slowly spread like a fog.

......

Time passed quickly, in the blink of an eye in the middle of the night.

North of Graywood, in a clearing on the side of the forest road, a group of people rested.

The group, both men and women, looked ordinary around a campfire.

But when you get closer, you will find that this group of people is quite strange, either hunchbacked, lame, or one-eyed dragon, or shivering as if they have a cold.

A team of eight people is like a group of the old, weak, sick and disabled.

The only thing that is more normal is a graceful woman who looks in her thirties, with a slender figure and thick hair that can almost reach her waist.

The long-haired woman was sitting four or five meters away from the bonfire, squinting at a blue seal in her hand by the light of the bonfire.

The blue seal kept flipping in her hand, reflecting the luster, and it looked very eye-catching. Suddenly, as if sensing something, the woman stopped, put away the seal, and turned her head to look to the side.

On one side, beside the campfire, a lame woman with thick lips in a gray robe was using a wooden stick to stir the burning wooden blocks, as if she was a little bored. Suddenly, as if sensing something, she looked at the long-haired woman, and suddenly reached out and grabbed the air next to her.

After grabbing it, the thick-lipped woman's face changed and she quickly opened her mouth.

There was no sound, but it was clear that everyone had received a specific signal, and it only took a second for them to get up in unison, make a defensive gesture, and look in one direction in the forest next to them.

Among these people, a strong man of about 1.8 meters stepped forward, the muscles on his body vibrated with his breathing, his eyes widened, and he shouted: "Hey, who's where? Come out for me! Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude." ”

"Whoa!"

The branches of a tree in the forest shook and made a sound.

The strong man reacted very quickly, and when he raised his hand, a red light was released, hitting the branch.

"Boom!"

The red light exploded, and the entire tree exploded, but it didn't hurt any other being.

The strong man frowned, his expression was a little puzzled, and then his pupils shrank, and he saw that less than a few meters in front of him, the air was distorted, and a person appeared out of thin air - Richard.

"You!"

The strong man took a step back aggressively, stood with his companions, looked at Richard vigilantly, made a gesture that would attack at any time, and quickly asked, "Who are you?"

While the strong man asked, Richard carefully looked at a team of eight people, including the strong man.

He could sense that the bodies of the eight people had a not weak energy response, and they were obviously wizards. But the strange thing is that he can't accurately judge how strong this energy reaction is and what kind of wizard level the group is, as if he used a special interference spell.

It's not easy...... Richard silently came to a conclusion in his mind...... Those who can take a shortcut to enter the tomb of Thangka are indeed not simple.

Seeing that Richard had not answered for a long time, the strong man lowered his face slightly, and patiently asked again: "Hey, who are you? If you are passing by, leave me at once, for I and my companions are very unwelcome to you." You'd better cooperate, or don't blame us for being polite. ”

"Don't get excited. I, not a passer-by with malicious intentions, have come here specifically to find you. Richard spoke.

"Huh, looking for us?" the strong man's expression became more dangerous, "We don't know you, do we?"

"Before answering your question, I want to confirm one thing. Richard looked at the strong man and said, "That is, may I ask you, not long ago, you went to the tomb of the thangka wizard in the White Valley and took a blue seal from there, right?"

"You!" After hearing this, the strong man's eyes widened suddenly, and the mana fluctuations in his body increased sharply, and he was about to attack if he couldn't bear it.

However, just when the mana fluctuation was close to the peak, it suddenly dropped, and one of the long-haired woman's hands gently pressed on his back.

The strong man was stunned for a moment, slowly turned his head to look at the long-haired woman, opened and closed his mouth, and asked puzzledly: "Team...... Captain, you?"

"You stand down first, calm down, don't always think about doing it, let me ask him before I speak. The long-haired woman looked at the strong man and said, her dark brown eyes seemed to have a strange magic, and she made the strong man bow his head and agree.

"Yes, Captain. The strong man flashed to the side.

The woman stepped forward and stood in the position of the strong man, her long dark black hair fluttering slowly in the night wind, and a pair of dark brown eyes, like obsidian, looked at Richard.

Richard also looked at the long-haired woman, a little surprised by the woman's appearance, as far as he knew, in the current world, it is relatively rare to have nearly black eyes and dark black hair. However, he did not lose his temper, nodded slightly, and greeted calmly: "Hello." ”

"Hello. The long-haired woman replied, her tone a little cold, but not rude, and asked in a low voice, "Excuse me, why are you looking for us, and why are you asking about the tomb of the thangka wizard?"

"I won't go into the exact reason, but what I can tell you is that I have a similar seal. Richard said, as he spoke, raised his hand and showed a blood-red seal in the palm of his hand.

The long-haired woman looked at it, raised her slender eyebrows, and turned her head slightly to look behind her.

Behind her, a white-haired old man with a black iron mask shook his head slightly, not knowing what to mean.

The long-haired woman retracted her gaze, pondered for a few seconds, reached out and took out the blue seal from her arms, compared it with the blood-colored seal in Richard's hand, and chuckled: "It looks very similar, but it doesn't explain why you're looking for us." What is your purpose, stranger?"

"My purpose is actually very simple, and that is – to cooperate. Richard said, "You have a blue seal, and I have a red seal." Blue is water, red is fire, water and fire are combined, and both are indispensable. It's a win-win thing, and I don't think you have a reason to say no. ”

"Huh?" the long-haired woman said questioningly, her black eyes rolling a little, and she turned her head again to look behind her.

The white-haired old man with a black iron mask behind her shook his head as always, not knowing what he meant.

The long-haired woman turned her head, her frosty pink lips pursed, and after a few seconds, she asked Richard, "Can you explain what you mean?"

Richard was a little stunned by this question, and after a few seconds, he guessed a certain possibility, blinked his eyes and asked, "Don't tell me, haven't you seen the text engraved on the bottom of the seal in your hand?"

The long-haired woman's eyes suddenly widened, and she was slightly surprised, and she said, "Under the seal...... Got a word?"

"There are words. ”

“......”
