Chapter 12, Transition

After the barbarian barbarian raids, the Northland has unsurprisingly become devastated and the people are miserable.

But having snatched enough slaves and supplies for the winter, the barbarians retreated as promised.

Knowing that the rebels would not spare themselves, they did not find the bodies of the Stuart father and son, but after receiving news from Victor Bull, Danvers fled frantically with his companions, relying on his familiarity with the terrain of the Northlands, avoiding the siege of the rebels, and entered the territory of the Woodford family without danger.

There are four major counties in the Northlands, and Woodford is one of them.

The Woodfords have been loyal to the Stuart family for generations, and the head of the family, Bronx Woodford, is the cousin of Archduke Edgar Stuart!

Barbarians raid villages.

The rebels are also attacking the towns around Fort Black Rock!

Danvers was not found, but he fled to the territory of the Woodford family, and it didn't take long for the rebels to get the news.

For diehards who refuse to give in.

The rebels are trying to wipe them all out!

War broke out.

The 2,000 mercenaries who were scattered to search were no longer aimed at Danvers and the other fish that escaped from the net, and the mercenaries who chased and killed Tom were greatly reduced.

But Lan Don, who has a weak physique, still doesn't wake up after two days of sleep!

Tom, who didn't know the way, couldn't find the map, so in order to avoid the rebels, they ran in the direction of no one, and by mistake, they hid in the hinterland of Mrs. Theron's power!

There are enemies everywhere.

After eating the dry food, Tom and the others were careful to even boil water for dinner.

"Seven Layers of Hell, how long will it take for such days?"

Taken by the strangeness of the wizard, the not weak strength of the female general and the assassin, and the cunning of the little skin, there is nowhere to spill the anger, and the angry Demon Mountain can't endure it all the time.

For the strong man who lost his temper three times a day, Tom glanced at him coldly, like a magic mountain in an ice cellar with a hideous face, but he didn't dare to make any moves.

Looking at Lanton, who was still unconscious, Atemisia sighed at everyone's thoughts, and suggested, "Why don't we surrender to that Lady Theron?"

They weren't Northlanders, and they had no grudges against Lady Theron other than killing a few mercenaries.

If Mrs. Theron wants to take control of the Northlands and eliminate dissidents, she will definitely need more talent.

And each of them is extraordinary!

Surrendering to her, they may not be in any danger, and allowing the sleepy Langton to be treated is definitely the best way to change the situation.

Little Peel hurriedly said: "I agree!"

Tom: "What's the hurry?"

"Lan Don can't die, and he doesn't need treatment, he's just in too bad health, and he will wake up naturally when he sleeps enough. ”

Artemisia frowned and said, "But if he is so sleepy and does not eat or drink, I am afraid that his life will be in danger after a long time." ”

Hearing this, Tom looked at Lan Don for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, don't talk nonsense, hurry up and finish your dry food, another enemy is approaching." ”

Life is connected, and he won't take Lanton's life as a child's play.

Because he won't risk his life.

Moreover, as Lan Dun fell asleep, the Mourning Box began to react subtly, emitting a faint special energy from time to time, as if it wanted to communicate with its summoner!

The Mourning Box contains the Monks of Purgatory!

There may also be an evil god!

He believed that the evil gods in the magic box, as well as the monks of purgatory, were just like himself, connected to the life of the summoner Langton!

Other words.

The Mourning Box won't let Langton die!

Therefore, Tom has no scruples!

The rain was pouring down, making the remote forest path muddy, and Tom, who led the way, had tried his best to avoid the enemy, but his strength had not yet recovered, and at most he could detect whether there was anyone within a radius of several hundred meters.

It cannot be detected beyond the range of detected magic.

Even if there are wizards and experienced assassins, they are not omnipotent.

Because they ran into the center of the territory controlled by Mrs. Theron, there were rebel soldiers on all sides, and the sneaky six people were finally discovered by the enemy.

The crowd has been through many encounters.

Dealing with the enemy, they are afraid of being entangled, and they never understand what it means to be merciful.

As a result, many times they forgot to leave a living mouth to ask for directions.

Watching the Magic Mountain, Little Skin, Talia and Tom each use their own means to kill the enemy, Artemisia hurriedly reminded loudly: "Leave a living mouth!"

"Stay alive?"

"Who are you?"

At this time, a cold voice sounded, and a noble lady in a gorgeous long dress appeared behind them at some point.

"Who are you?"

As Lord Voldemort, who roamed the wizarding world, he didn't even notice when someone was coming.

Tom, who heard this, immediately turned around, and a solemn look appeared on his face that had never been seen before.

"Before you ask someone, you should report your name. ”

The lady looked at him lightly and asked, "Or do you not know what politeness is at all?"

After staring at her for a moment, sensing the powerful magic power in her, Tom said in a solemn voice, "You are a witch. ”

The noble lady shook her head and corrected, "I'm a mage. ”

"I'm Tom Riddle. ”

Tom narrowed his eyes and asked tentatively, "We're both wizards, so don't we need to waste our magic for those lowly Muggles?"

"Muggles mean ordinary people?"

The first time she heard this, the noblewoman felt a little novel, but in order to rule the Northlands, she must seek justice for her dead men: "So, my men died in vain?"

The clever little skinner had stepped aside, and when he heard this, he immediately spoke, "Your Excellency is Mrs. Theron?"

"Ma'am, I think there was a misunderstanding between us!"

Mrs. Theron: "Misunderstanding?"

Xiao Peel hurriedly said: "That's right, we originally planned to take refuge with Madame, but because we were not familiar with the place, we accidentally met a murderous and barbaric robber, and as a result, we had the current misunderstanding." ”

Mrs. Theron: "Take refuge in me?"

Little Peel patted his chest and said, "That's right, we all have a skill, and we plan to work for Madame!"

"What skill?" said Mrs. Theron, with a little interest.

"I know how to shoot arrows, and he is also good at commanding troops, his name is Gregor Cregan, nicknamed Magic Mountain, and he is a super fierce general who can fight against a hundred!" ”

"Miss Talia is a powerful assassin. ”

"Lady Artemisia was once a female general!"

"Female general?" Mrs. Theron looked at Artemisia in some surprise, "You are from the Amazon Kingdom?"

Artemisia shook her head: "No, I'm from Persia. ”

"Persia? Mrs. Theron shook her head and looked at Langton, who was in a comatose state without introduction, "And who are the rest of the people?"

"Isabella, is that you?"

Although Langton's body was a little weaker, anyone could tell that he was a man, why did this lady ask a woman's name?

Little Peel was a little stunned and asked, "Who is Isabella?"

"Isn't it?"

Mrs. Theron frowned, and was about to walk towards Lanton, when Tom hurriedly stopped in front of her.

"Ma'am, Gabrie is just an ordinary man. ”

"Gabry?" Mrs. Theron sneered, "Then why do you want to bring an ordinary person? Don't talk about fooling people, hand over Isabella!"

"I don't know anything Isabella. ”

Tom raised his hand, slowly beckoned the unconscious Lanton to his side, and said, "You can see it clearly now, right? ”

"It does look ordinary. ”

Mrs. Theron: "But I also want to confirm his identity, after all, with the magic of high-grade transformation potions, it is not difficult to turn a woman into a man. ”

"No, I can't. ”

With Lanton's life on the line, Tom didn't dare to hand him over.

"Aren't you going to serve me?" Mrs. Theron: "Let me see your sincerity and hand him over." ”

"So... Madame, there was a misunderstanding between us... Is it a write-off?"

Little Peel asked.

Mrs. Theron: "Let me see your sincerity first. ”

"I'm sorry, we can't hand Gabry over. With that, Talia threw the sword in her right hand.

"Zheng~"

Between the flashes of brilliance, a golden mirror appeared, easily blocking the long sword.

"Looks like you're lying. ”

As Mrs. Theron's words fell, the ground beneath her feet turned to gold, spreading rapidly in all directions, and then violently condensed into a sword thrust!

Sensing powerful magic, Tom didn't say a word and took Langton's phantom shift!

"Hide!"

Sharp metal burst out of the ground, and Talia hurriedly pulled Artemisia to dodge.

She had known for a long time that the selfish Dark Lord was not to be trusted, and she knew very well that he would abandon everyone but Lanton!

"Magic Mountain, let's run!"

Seeing an unprecedented solemn look on Tom's face, the little peel knew that this lady Theron was very strong, and Talia chose to make a move, he turned around and ran away, not daring to look back at the deadly golden thorn behind him.

Seeing this, the rebel soldiers who retreated into the distance raised their crossbows in their hands.

As a precaution against discovering their enemies, the Magic Mountain was furthest from Lady Theron, and when he saw that the feathered arrow was about to fly, he raised his shield and ran after him.

"What kind of spell is this?"

Tom was apparitioned by Lanton, and Mrs. Theron was a little surprised, because teleportation magic was very rare in this world.

"Don't try to run!"

The gold that spread across the ground converged, instantly forming a golden shuttle, dragging her through the air.

Lady Theron chased Tom and Langton away, and the soldiers rushed to the Magic Mountain, Little Peel, Talia, and Artemisia, who had fled in disarray.

The four of them were powerless in front of Mrs. Theron.

But to deal with this group of ordinary people, they don't have to spend much effort at all!

"Wait a minute!"

Seeing that the four of them joined forces, they easily eliminated the rebels in the brigade like chopping melons and vegetables, and they were about to run away on horseback, when a mud monkey-like girl immediately ran out of the woods next to them.

"I'm Isabella Stuart!"

The other side.

Tom, who had cast the illusion, couldn't shake off Mrs. Theron at all.

Constantly apparition and transformation, his magic power consumption is extremely high, and the burden on his body is also extremely heavy, and the unconscious Langton has begun to vomit unconsciously!

It can't go on like this......

The shuttle landed on the ground, and Mrs. Theron said, "I thought you would run far, but I didn't expect you to run out of magic so quickly?"

"Hand over the spell you just cast, and maybe I can spare your life. ”

Tom: "Is that possible?"

Mrs. Theron: "Of course not enough, your soul must be branded with my soul and serve me as Lord." ”

"Soul sigil?" Tom: "You want to enslave me?"

Metal once again spread from Mrs. Theron's feet in all directions: "Or die." ”

"Avada suo!"

As the Dark Lord of the wizarding world, the arrogant Tom could not allow himself to be enslaved by others, and raised his hand angrily to cast the most powerful Death Curse.

"Instant death spells?"

The shield took shape in an instant, emitting a dazzling sun-like light, shielding Lady Theron from the deadly light!

"Damn. ”

Seeing this, Tom was furious, but he was helpless against her.

Can't beat it.

I can only keep running!

"Still want to run?"

The metal condensed in Mrs. Theron's hands like a liquid, turning into a two-meter-long golden spear that instantly flew like a streamer of light across the sun!

"Poof~"

High in the air, Tom's apparition was interrupted!

The streamer-like golden spear pierced directly through his abdomen, and with the magic backlash, his eyes went black and he lost consciousness and fell into free fall.

Taken for a phantasmagion.

The spell fails, and the unconscious Langton falls quickly.

Thinking that it was better to kill the wrong person than to let it go, he was too lazy to determine if Langton was changed by Isabella drinking the transformation potion, and Mrs. Theron threw a golden arrow to kill him!

However.

This time.

The box of mourning that Tom put in Lanton's pocket opens automatically!

An incomparably evil aura poured out, and strange chains flew out of thin air, knocking down the golden arrow, and flying to the river dozens of meters away with Langton.

Sensing the evil aura, a look of horror appeared on Mrs. Theron's face, and a trace of unprecedented fear flashed in her eyes!

As soon as he hesitated, he didn't have time to react.

In the end, I only heard a "poof", and watched as Langton was carried by the magic box and fell into the water, and then disappeared!

...... To be continued......
