Chapter 58: Turning Back
Barry carried the unconscious Rena, and several people quickly left the place. Along the way, Linton also inquired about some information from Garsein's side.
It's been the fifth day since Linton left, and they had indeed looked for Linton nearby before, fearing that something would happen to Linton. But soon Barry woke up, and he also knew about the Assassin, and after hearing this, he felt that he could not continue to wait in the same place, and the Assassin would return.
So they also quickly began to move, of course, they were going to return to the city immediately, but they did not expect that shortly after leaving, they encountered another attack by the Assassins, which was obviously the second wave of Assassins.
Unexpectedly, the second group of assassins came so quickly, and Barry estimated that the other party had any magic items for remote communication, so he called for backup. Among the second group of Assassins who attacked them, there was a master, according to Barry, who was very strong and fought with him, but the problem was ...... Now Barry is injured, so he can't beat that guy.
However, the other party also had some scruples, it was obvious that after the failure of the first wave of attacks, the other party was also a little afraid, and it was Linton who panicked, so after the attack failed, the other party quickly retreated.
Of course, it's a good thing to be able to repel the other party, but Barry thought about it, these people definitely won't just go back if they don't succeed, where is it estimated that they are waiting for them. So Barry thought about it, he couldn't go back the way he came, the current situation was too dangerous in the event of an ambush, so after some discussion, they decided to change their route and set off to the west, not back to the original city of Digarno, but to the city of Soraga to the west, and then take the car back.
Of course, this is not without risk, although it avoids the assassins, but it will go deeper into the forest, so that it is possible to encounter more advanced magical beasts. For example, just now, they encountered a sixth-level demonic beast spotted white tiger. If it was a normal situation, Barry would still be able to deal with a sixth-level Warcraft, but he also overestimated his recovery a little, and he almost ran into a crisis, and it was indeed dangerous without Linton's rescue.
This is the current situation, of course, Barry has found out from the previous attack that the other party's target was actually the two of Merlowe's family, but now that the princess has been involved in this matter, the other party's current target is estimated to include the princess. If the princess goes back safely, she will definitely investigate them, which is not good news for them, so the other party has sent experts over in a row, obviously preparing to leave them in the forest.
"So we're heading west now?" Linton asked.
"yes." Garsein nodded.
"What's going on?" Linton raised his forehead, "I'm back, why do you have to go west, don't you want to know who killed your father?" We're just going to be right with them. ”
Hearing Linton's words, Barry stopped, and what Linton said seemed to have some sense. He still knew Linton's combat effectiveness, first of all, it was not very safe to go west, and secondly, the distance was too long, and each of them knew the way to the west, and it was very likely that they would get lost. There was no way before, but now that Linton is back, there is no need to take risks.
"The new swordsman on the other side should be at least a five-star swordsman." Barry said, "Do you have any experience against star swordsmen?" ”
"Star Swordsman?" Linton had heard of the star mage before, and it was estimated that the star swordsman said something similar, "No matter who the other party is, anyway, I have achieved my magic now, and I am invincible in the world, believe me, even if the king of heaven is here now, he will kneel directly when I glare at him." ”
"Why do I still sound so unreliable?" Garsein, who was next to him, couldn't help but say.
"Don't, please believe me, do you know how much effort it took to pretend to force me? Give me a platform, and I'll give you a piece of the sky, okay? Linton said.
"Captain Barry, I think it's better to turn back." At this time, Princess Yalan helped Linton speak, "With the current combat strength, I don't think there should be so much fear of assassination." ”
As she spoke, Princess Arran gave Barry a look that glanced at the place behind them. Barry immediately understood that Princess Arran meant the Fire Eater who was following them.
Yes, this fire-swallowing beast has been following Linton and them, although it is a little far away, but looking at it like this, the fire-swallowing beast seems to have been tamed by Linton, and they have also seen Linton riding the fire-swallowing beast before.
No matter how much nonsense Linton's side has, they know the power of the Fire Eater, so if they have it, their strength has greatly increased. In this way, it is not particularly dangerous to turn back, after all, it is not safe to go west, and the tiger before has proved this.
"Well......" Barry nodded as well, thought for a moment and said, "In that case, let's turn back, but now there are wounded, let's camp today, and tomorrow we will go east." ”
Everyone agreed, and soon set up camp. Princess Arran was in charge of taking care of the wounded, Barry was in charge of guarding, and Garsein was supposed to be in charge of getting some food, but he had to take Linton with him.
"Why?" Linton said.
"I'm going to keep an eye on you, you're going to come to the pit for some reason, and we're gone." Garseen said.
"How could I cheat you, you're my nephew." Linton said.
"That's what you said last time, and then you're gone." Garseen said.
"It was an accident, okay?" Linton said, "I think your concept must be changed a bit, you will understand a little bit in the future, follow my uncle and me, absolutely delicious and spicy." ”
"For example......"
"For example, now, you see, are you going to hunt now, how tiring it is, and how dangerous it is if you encounter a tiger again." Linton said.
"There shouldn't be high-level Warcraft here, high-level Warcraft have territorial awareness, I just looked, there are a lot of low-level Warcraft near here, it's not like the territory of high-level Warcraft." Barry next to him said.
"It doesn't matter!" "I mean, you're going to have to work hard to catch your prey, but with my uncle and me, you can just lie on the ground and wait for the prey to appear." ”
"Huh?" Garseen was stunned, "You should put on a show for me." ”
"Okay, look at it." Linton nodded, then said to the fire-devouring beast next to him, "Come, deer, go catch me a prey, a bigger one." ”
"......" Everyone looked at Linton a little speechlessly, and then looked at the Fire Eater next to him.
The Fire Eater also didn't know what to say, but it seemed that it had done all this thing, and it didn't seem to be so resistant to doing it again. After thinking about it, the Fire Eater turned and left.
"No, you just let it catch its prey?" Garseen was surprised, "It's a deer." ”
"I know, but it does catch prey, I've tried it before." Linton said.
So what is this guy going to do with taming phantom beasts? Are you too lazy to find food to catch it? Barry and Princess Arran next to him also looked at Linton a little speechless, this guy didn't seem to realize how powerful it was to catch the phantom beast.
After waiting for a while, suddenly the figure of the Fire Eater appeared again, this guy's speed was really a bit fast, and he could barely see the trajectory of his movements. If Linton hadn't opened the writing wheel, all he saw was a flash of purple light.
But when the Fire Eater stopped, everyone was also stunned, and they saw that the Fire Eater here had something like a black leopard in its mouth. Of course, Barry knew that this leopard was only a fourth-level demonic beast, and it couldn't be the opponent of the fire-devouring beast at all, but why was this scene so strange to look at, a deer came back with a leopard in its mouth.
"Can I eat this?" Linton said, pointing at the leopard.
"In this way, the monsters are generally edible." Barry said, "There are very few demonic beasts with poisonous meat in them, and the flesh of demonic beasts generally contains magical power and tastes good. ”
"That'...... Wash it and bake it. Linton said, then pointed to Garsein, "You go." ”
"You give me a wait, why do I think I have the same identity as this deer, just said that your nephew just lies down and waits, why do I just feel that you just find a few people to help you work?" Garseen said.
"Then it won't clean up the ingredients, and you can't be too embarrassed about it, you see how pitiful it is." Linton said.
"Then why don't you do it?" Garseen said.
"Neither will I." Linton said, "You see how it is possible that I am from a noble background and have been clothed and fed since I was a child. ”
"First of all, I'm also from a noble family, and secondly, I've never seen your fine clothes and food, don't you have any money left in your pocket?" Garsein yelled.
"You say this as if I am poor." Linton said, "Tell you, I've been a lot of money lately, by the way, I have a few things here, you can help me see what it is......"
Lin Du said that he wanted to take out the gems that the Fire Swallowing Beast had given him before and ask Barry to help identify them, he didn't know them, but Barry and Princess Yalan were both people who had seen the world, and they probably knew each other. He is indeed a bit poor, just to solve the financial problem.
But just as he was about to take out the gem, he was suddenly tapped a few times behind him. Linton was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to find that the person who had clicked on him was actually a fire-devouring beast. Linton was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly understood, this guy wants a reward, isn't this a reward for catching prey for him in the morning?
"Understood. Amaterasu! Linton punched Amaterasu in a random direction next to him, and was about to turn around and continue to take out the gem for Barry to identify, when suddenly a scream came. Linton turned around in surprise, and a person suddenly fell from the tree that had just been set on fire by his own Amaterasu, and after moving slightly, he was directly engulfed by Amaterasu's fire.
"This ...... No way. Linton raised his forehead, "How do I think I've seen this meeting?" ”
When he turned his head, everyone looked at him with admiration.
