"Looks like things are going pretty well."

Raising his head in the countless entwined magical aura, Duan Qing sighed and looked in the southwest direction where the horn was blown again: "They should have succeeded. ”

"The only surprise was probably the sudden battle to the north." The answer to him was Nahia, who was still busy in front of her: "Don't you really know who is making a fuss over there?" ”

"Please, there are only so many of us in the Qingling Adventure Group." Retracting his helpless eyes, Duan Qing's gaze passed over again on the long grass that the two of them had already walked: "We can't send more people to the north to make trouble, and there are those people who have been chasing us before." ”

"You mean the likes of the Nashi and Nako? They didn't have the guts to really bully the Hulun meadows. Shaking her head, Naxia, who was still writing and drawing, took two steps forward with the rising magic rune again: "Pay attention to the magic fixation, my apprentice. ”

"Got it, got it." Incorporating the grass that the black-haired woman had just stepped on and the runes left on the grass into his field of vision, Duan Qing helplessly raised the hand he used to cast spells: "Are the Nashi clan and the Nake clan considered to be very weak races on this continent?" ”

"Don't ask me questions like this that I have to trace history and inheritance, I don't have so much knowledge in my head." The short magic wand appeared and disappeared in the hand that lingered with rich magical energy, and Nahia nodded her head sideways: "In the brief impression that this poor girl left me, the Nashi and Nake are small tribes that are not well known, not only have they not left any reputation in the continent, but they have never entered the central region of the continent. ”

"The reason why we were able to defeat a tribe like the Nasu was mostly because of the weakness of the Nasu themselves, in addition to their despicable means and unknown backers as you said." She raised her head, and her beautiful eyes fell under the gloomy sky in the north: "Every one of the Central Grassland Tribes has a stronger comprehensive strength than the current Hulun Clan, it is hard to imagine that they will be reduced to this now. ”

"It's hard to imagine you're like this, isn't it?" Half-jokingly raising his hand, Duan Qing then slowly put away his smiling face: "Your existence seems to interpret the meaning of the words 'fate is impermanent, and the world is changeable'. ”

"Don't say how miserable I am now, I'm doing well now." Turning back with a disdainful expression, Naxia's pretty face full of smiles was hidden under her long hair swaying in the wind: "Not only have I gained freedom and new powers, but I have also seen more of the world—there are probably not many people on the free continent who can do what I am now." ”

"There are still some of them, although most of them are related to me." Touching his nose with some embarrassment, Duan Qing lowered his head embarrassedly: "I ended up like this now, probably because I had suffered too much from these disasters, so I was retaliated against by the world." ”

"Most of them are related to you?" The unintentional words attracted Nahia's great attention, and the body that had planned to continue moving forward suddenly turned back with a whirlwind feeling: "Who else has been treated the same as me?" Can they also communicate with your soul at will? ”

"Of course not, you're just...... Well, it's just a special situation. Raising his hands to block the other party's blazing gaze out of his range, Duan Qing skipped the topic with a wry smile: "Anyway, how is your power?" Are you used to being a messenger? ”

"Oracle? Ah, that's what you're talking about? ”

A faint golden light appeared in front of Duan Qing with Naxia's outstretched hand again, and the swallowed light also fluttered back and forth in the air like a scaly snake: "I already showed it when I drove the Hulun clan back for the first time before, right?" My knowledge is not comparable to that halfway monk girl, don't worry. ”

"And how long do we have left to complete the entire circle?" Duan Qing's gaze sank: "How long do my teammates need to delay?" ”

"It's probably going to be a few hours." Shaking her head slightly, Naxia, who turned around and continued to take steps, replied lightly, "And before that, I need a little time to return to the interior of the Hulun settlement. ”

"Ling Bing hasn't found that location yet, and if she finds it, she'll send us a message." Raising the gem used for magic communication in his hand, Duan Qing frowned: "But...... For a few hours, I don't know if they can hold it. ”

"Didn't you give them a lot of useful items?"

The purple energy stretched towards the bottom of the grass with the wand that reappeared in Naxia's hand, accompanied by the scene of countless runes of brilliance intertwined between the blades of grass, which gradually disappeared due to another stream of magical energy that Duan Qing then spilled, and merged with Naxia's swaying steps gradually forward: "And those little inventions of yours - if you can't beat one or two opponents with these things, then they can really be labeled." The dumbest apprentice' label has been sent to the lowest level of the Violet Tower to clean up. ”

"They're not me, and it's not something that can be adapted to those things in a moment." Duan Qing, who was still in charge of the aftermath and casting spells, shook his head with a wry smile: "And unless it is absolutely necessary, they should not use those things." ”

"Forget it, it doesn't matter if you really don't have time anyway." The infiltrating light spread around the grass in the footsteps of the woman in white, and even her voice seemed to become as heavy as low pressure: "The key to the formation of the final technique is not time, but whether it can overcome the barrenness and defects of this land - that dragon lady, can she do it?" ”

"Didn't we already discuss it before? Let's give it a try according to our plan. Duan Qing raised his head: "Anyway, we don't have a better way-"

"Hey, can you hear me?"

Before he could finish speaking, the voice of the call suddenly sounded on the magic sound transmission stone in his arms, and he was stunned for a second because of the appearance of this voice with his hands in the air, and then picked up the stone that was still coming out of the sound under Naxia's scrutinizing gaze: "Can you hear me?" Whew, it can't be because of the interference of magic, is there a signal interruption? ”

"Nope." Hurriedly responding and saying this, Duan Qing continued very quickly: "How is it? Did you find that place? ”

"Why do you think I'm contacting you urgently at this time?" The voice condensed by the magic gem didn't sound like any distortion, as if Snow Spirit Phantom Ice himself was whispering in Duan Qing's ear: "Found it, it's in my place." ”

"Very well, we'll be over in a moment." Giving Nahia a look in front of her, Duan Qing, who had received an affirmative reply, then replied decisively in her voice: "You find a safe place, and then spread out the rune scroll we gave you earlier-"

"Sorry to disturb your contact, but we're making progress on our side."

The indifferent voice suddenly sounded between the two people's communication, and the interference sound that seemed a little rustling because of the sudden insertion also perfectly presented the noise belonging to Gedmayne's side: "Although it is the first time, I really didn't expect this thing to really work...... Hey, can you hear me? ”

"Humob has returned with the orders of the patriarch." Not caring if Duan Qing responded or not, Gedmayne lowered his voice and continued: "They should have a duel, but they asked us to go to the martial arts training ground in the settlement, and they can agree to the rest of the conditions." ”

"No, once you enter their territory, your life and death are not up to you." Duan Qing hurriedly glared at him and replied, "Even if you are lucky enough to win, you won't be able to come out alive-"

"Did you ever think that the two of us would come back alive when you first made this reckless plan?" With a low chuckle, Gedmane sighed with laughter, "Death everywhere is death." ”

"We might as well die a little greater."

Ignoring the words that were still ringing on the other end of the Philosopher's Stone, Gedmayne dispelled the runic energy on the surface of the Philosopher's Stone that Nahia had given him before, and when he raised his head, he glanced at Asahi Dongsheng, who was still standing in front of him with his waist straightened, and finally replied in a steady voice to Humopo, who was still waiting for something, "We agreed, and we will do what your patriarch wants." ”

"I admire your courage." Nodding his head, Humob turned around and walked towards the inside of the camp: "Then come with me." ”

"As you all know, the martial arts training ground has become an idle area." He waved his arms to make way for the encirclement, and at the same time continued to raise his voice without looking back, "The duel will begin soon." ”

"My lord, this is an insult to our clan!" A Hulun warrior let out an involuntarily excited voice when Humob passed in front of him: "Why should we accept such a challenge? These two humble and arrogant adventurers—"

"This is the order of the patriarch, do you have any opinions?" Holding his hands and stopping his steps, Hu Mobei's indifferent voice was full of the feeling of oppression that only the superior can have: "As for whether you are qualified to laugh at the weakness of these two adventurers......

"When you really win against them, you can say this again."

The cavalry, which gradually dispersed, formed a formation in the direction of Humobe's departure, and a pair of knife-like eyes were immediately fixed on the two people, Sunrise and Gedmayne, who raised the banner in their hands for a moment, and disappeared into the settlement in the direction they had moved away from it. In the eyes of countless Hulun tribesmen who were looking at these two people in light and dark, the cavalry team that "escorted" these two people like a military parade then passed through countless white tents unhurriedly, and a huge circular field belonging to the Apollon region was then slowly presented in the eyes of the two people: "I see, this is the martial arts training ground of the big tribe." ”

"Did you find anything that caught our attention before that person?"

"No, and this place seems to be quite far from that windmill...... Is it possible that it is buried underground? ”

"There is no sign of excavation other than the marks of a stampede, and I prefer to believe that they were hidden inside the huge tent that served as the council chamber rather than in the ground."

"Hey, you two!"

A voice of anger and impatience then interrupted the muffled conversation between the two men, and one of the countless cavalrymen blocking behind them raised his spear in their ears and said, "The elder is asking you!" You should have a minimum of respect! ”

"Ah, I'm sorry." So Gedemane also hurriedly straightened his face: "What did you just ask?" ”

"Do you need to pick your opponents?" Hu Mobei, who didn't care about the other party's previous disrespect, and was already sitting at the end of the other end of the venue, waved his hand: "The way of the duel shouldn't need us to be determined, right?" Anyway, if you choose to duel in a group with just these two people, it will only seem that we are bullying too much. ”

"What is this talking about?" Naturally, his remarks caused a huge backlash: "I, I mean there are more than two of us, and our teammates are still on the way!" ”

"Okay, okay, okay, and your teammates—four of them, right?" Pushing his hands, Hu Mobei involuntarily put on a funny expression: "Are you going to choose your opponent yourself, or will we choose?" ”

"We don't have so many rules, every Hulun warrior here can play." As if waiting for an upcoming drama, the tribal elder spread his hands and gestured, "Show your strength and determination." ”

"What about Hulambatar? Why didn't your patriarch come? Without immediately answering the other party's question, Gedmayne, who was still holding up his shield, asked in a deep voice: "Since he agreed to our request, then he will definitely be there to watch, right?" ”

"Although the patriarch made the decision, there is no need for him to come and watch this duel." The smile on his face disappeared a little, and Hu Mobei shook his head and replied, "And the Council of Elders hasn't agreed yet, so he is naturally not suitable to come." ”

"'Barish' is a sacred ritual and very important to us, and we must be sure that your patriarch has granted our request." As if grasping the sore point in the other party's words, Gedmayne raised his voice and said, "Haven't your clans formalized the agreement and bet between us? That's not going to work. ”

"We won't start until your final decision is made clear."
