Ask for help from the fishermen and workers who pass by, and even if they are willing to do so, they will never be the opponents of the dark mercenaries, and in the end, they will only increase the number of victims. But the two men in front of him were not only swordsmen, but also used weapons that even he, a magic blacksmith, could not recognize. Since they are all bets, it is obvious that there is more hope for betting on these two people.

"Help, he's a slave trader and wants to take me as a slave in the North!" Ian yelled.

They were in the ports of the Federation, and the closest place on the continent where slaves were allowed to exist was the North.

The woman looked up at Daynes, who looked at Daynes with a complicated expression, and flipped her hood open, revealing a handsome but slightly fierce face of a girl with anger and anxiety. She turned her head to look at her companion beside her, and complained, "What's going on! Why is there so much chaos outside, this one has to be saved, and that one has to be saved, and this trip is busy saving people!

Her companion was much calmer, flipping his hood back with both hands—a fair-skinned, grim-looking young man—Elantra.

He smiled and said, "The teacher said that the spiritual power comes from the leylines of the earth and runs through the entire territory of the Tivak continent, like a big tree, and we are just branches and leaves on the veins. When we are born towards the sun, we will always encounter leaves in the same direction as us. ”

"I don't know what you're talking about!" cried out the girl, whose generic name was translated as Valrhona, "Can we save this man?"

Daynes was eccentric, but in the face of sudden changes, he remained calm and restrained, and quickly thought about countermeasures. The young men were obviously swordsmen, and they knew psychics. But one of them is reckless and impatient and does not pay attention to the opponent at all, as if saving people is a matter of hand, and the other is careless, full of strange arguments that he does not understand. The most hateful thing is Ian, who actually talks nonsense about what kind of slave trader he is!

The slave trader is much better, he is a heinous villain, untenable under federal law, and not as dangerous as the dark mercenary. Thinking of this, Dayns said with a deep face: "I am not a slave trader, I am a dark mercenary, this person is the target of my mission. Friend, if you are interested, don't stand in my way. ”

This is very clear: the dark mercenaries do dirty work for money, and whoever stands in my way to finance is in the way of my life, and the result is naturally to fight to the death.

As soon as he finished his threatening words, he saw Elantra take a step back. Daynes was overjoyed, it seemed that the other party was quite sensible, and he saved the trouble of doing it here. But the next moment, his face was not good-looking, because Valrhona, who was standing in front, had already drawn the strange long sword behind her back with a loud sigh.

In this northern wilderness, her straight-edged longsword looked more like an alien blade than her own scimitar.

Dayns snorted coldly, and also pulled out his scimitar from behind his back, and said, "It seems that you don't plan to talk properly?"

"Beware, he'll use his psychic powers!" cried out Ian, who struggled to get up with his hands tied, lying on the ground.

But Valrhona suddenly turned around and flew into the air, and Ian was kicked into the air by her, rolling to the other side of the road. The kick was so fast and heavy that Ian was stunned when he kicked it, and it took him a long time to cough and clear his breath.

"Shut up," Valrhona scolded, "I still need you to teach?!"

Elantra shook his head helplessly: "He is kind, don't be so impatient." ”

"Finish the fight early and go back early, I'm fed up with this place!" Valrhona's longsword shook at her side, and turned to walk towards Daens, "There are two hundred and forty-one professions in the Tivak Continent, but if you meet a dark mercenary, you can kill it without asking—that's what the teacher said." ”

Daynes saw that the girl's eyes were full of vicious murderous intent, and her originally beautiful face looked cold and terrifying. He suddenly became alert, this girl was a professional killer.

"Who the hell are you?" asked Daense, gritting his teeth.

This simple question made Valrhona stop, and she turned to Elantra behind her, "This is difficult, who are we?"

Elantra thought for a moment and smiled, "Swordsmanship apprentice?"

"That's right," Valrhona turned to look back at Daenz, "and our only identity is the teacher's apprenticeship. ”

As soon as she finished saying this, Daens's scimitar had already slashed in front of her eyes. Dark mercenaries don't talk about rules and morals, sneak attacks, poisoning, assassination, deception, whatever methods can achieve their goals, Valrhona turned her head to look at such a big flaw behind him, how could he let it go?

However, the moment the scimitar was about to cut Valrhona's snow-white neck, she was gone!

For the first time since becoming a Dark Mercenary, Daynes was terrified in a match. He had already taken the lead, but he lost his target in an instant, and he was at a disadvantage. His hairs stood on end, and he felt a chill rise from his back. Suddenly, years of experience in the actual combat of dark mercenaries made him feel the murderous aura from the left rear in a daze, and turned around and swung out his scimitar - with a crisp sound of the bell, the metal blades intersected, and sparks burst out in the darkness.

As the spark faded, Valrhona vanished from his eyes once more.

This time, however, she didn't hide her form for a sneak attack, but returned to her original position, looking at Daynes with interest.

"Why——?" she smiled, as if speaking to Elantra behind her, "he actually spotted me." ”

"Maybe you've gained some weight lately......" Elantra whispered behind her back.

Valrhona turned her head again and glanced at Elantra with a cold look. This time, though, Daynes didn't try to sneak up on her again.

"Hey!" Valrhona shouted at Daenz, "or you go back with us and practice my sword, and I won't kill you today." ”

Dayns was stunned, what kind of condition is this?

Valrhona added: "The time to practice three star positions every day, as long as you don't die, you can always practice with me." ”

Daynes was furious, he was also a well-known character in the Dark Mercenary, and the other party had repeatedly insulted him. He no longer paid attention to what Valrhona said, and placed the scimitar diagonally on his right shoulder, and pulled his lunge at his feet, as if he was about to carry the scimitar and rush towards the arrogant and strange girl in front of him.

Valrhona sighed in disappointment, held the scabbard in her left hand, and threw out a few beautiful figure-eight loop sword flowers with the long sword in her right hand, and finally put the sword into the sheath with a bang. At the same time, take a step forward with your left leg, make a lunge, and stretch your right leg back. Her left hand gripped the scabbard, and her right hand held the hilt of the sword, as if she were ready to attack.

But her head didn't lift at all, and her eyes were slightly open, looking at the ground in front of her left leg.

Both men were in a stance, but Daynes took the lead and leaped forward with the force under his feet, a white arc of light flashing out of thin air on the edge of the scimitar. Although he took the lead, the speed of his advance was not fast, I saw him take a deep breath, and his feet stepped forward in turn, like a horse's step, but the force was so heavy that it crushed the stone pavement. By the time he took the third step, his right arm had stretched back to the limit, and the white arc was already behind him. With the last step under his feet, he slashed down with the rebound force of his body, and the white arc of light flew out like a crescent moon and flew towards Valrhona.

But Valrhona came first, leaving a depression deep into the ground where she stood, and the figure left an afterimage in its place.

Danes's fame, the Psionic Sword Technique, the Crescent Moon Slash, did not even touch Valrhona's robe, and the latter spun almost flat on the ground in his eyes, shooting towards him like a sharp arrow. He tried to return the knife to block it, but in the blink of an eye, he disappeared from the other party.

Immediately after, a streak of blood rose into the sky, and Daens's scimitar fell to the ground with a thud. Along with the scimitar, there was an arm that still held the hilt. Daynes rolled over and fell to the ground with a scream, pressing his left hand tightly against the clean cut on his right arm.

Elantra frowned in the back, he seemed to complain a little about his sister, who should have cut off her neck directly, and also made people suffer less.

Valrhona stood up five steps behind Daynes and exhaled softly, as if she hadn't been breathing for so long. She also frowned, shook her head and sighed: "Your temporary reaction is really good, but unfortunately, it will only make you more miserable." As she spoke, she hurried towards the fallen Dayns, apparently trying to finish him off quickly.

Daynes clutched his wound tightly with one hand, enduring the excruciating pain, trying to stay away from Valrhona. He was sweating profusely, and he didn't have time to stand up, so he had to move backwards. Blood trickled down the wound on the severed arm.

Ian, who was reclining under a streetlight across the street, was speechless in amazement at the sight of all this. That's the psionic sword technique he's always dreamed of, but it's not just psionic power. Valrhona's sudden blow seemed to restrain the use of psionic power, which was the exact opposite of Daenes's gorgeous and full use of psionic power.

He originally wanted to rely on the two swordsmen to drag Dayns and take the opportunity to escape himself, but after being kicked by Valrhona suddenly, he knew that the strength of these two people was unfathomable. Above all, the girl did not seem to be a reasonable person, and the young man spoke strangely. Watching them fight, Ian didn't dare to get up and flee easily. He had no doubt that the girl would immediately disengage from the fight and catch up with him, and then give him a sword.

All he could do now was concentrate and sense the situation around Zach while observing their fight. He didn't really want Sid and them to be here now, and he even feared that Giggs would be killed by the two eccentric swordsmen for talking too much.

Ian's worries were unwarranted, as Giggs simply simply had no ability to continue to participate in the rescue. He was already seriously injured when he was fighting against Warcraft, and on the way, he encountered a search and rescue patrol sent by Rubber Shield City, so he temporarily returned to Rubber Shield City. Sid and Jinx take Zach and re-head north through the clues Ian left behind.

They had been heading east, thinking that the plunderers of Ian would make a beeline for the imperial capital. It wasn't until he found the message that Zack had left with his sword that he hurriedly turned north. Now, they had just arrived at a wharf on the Dommour Canal, from where they planned to travel north along the canal to the nearest northern port for information.

Valrhona stood in front of Daenz, and the dark mercenary gasped, knowing that her life was on the line.

"Don't worry," the girl comforted softly, "my sword is fast. ”
