The man walked with mechanical steps, from the light of one lamp to the other, and made his way through a dark alley between the distant lights, the dim light falling on his long cloak, which seemed bright and dark.

He walked through the alleys that the square plover could not name, one after the other, from junction to junction, with stiff steps, but without hesitation. Men always seemed to be able to avoid the bustling streets, sometimes just a row of buildings, and at the intersection of the street they crossed with a group of patrolling knights in black and white uniforms, and the alleys were like two very different worlds, one side was dark and the other was brightly lit.

He stopped there only once, waiting for the patrolling knights to depart at a distance, then turned against them, and entered another, deeper alley, through stairs and old covered bridges, and the alleys became narrower and narrower, surrounded by buildings, and the steep eaves of the houses like fangs reaching into the night sky.

A clockwork fairy buzzed into the night sky, its wings flapping not loud, and as the brass ball swept past the window, it could not even wake those who had fallen asleep.

The man limped forward, unaware of what was going on behind him, Fang Yu didn't know if the person controlling all this behind him was aware of the movement around him through his own spell, but judging from the reaction of the citizen, it seemed that he couldn't.

The man's actions are like a pre-set program, where to stay and where to wait. Fang Yu tried a few times, and even if he didn't follow, the person who led the way would leave at the appointed time, and every time it was exactly the same.

It must not have been the first day that the other party had practiced all this, but it had only been two days since the Seven Seas Brigade arrived here, and the other party must have practiced many times before this day, and there may have been many different people who have walked back and forth on this road during this time.

But what is the purpose of such a big effort?

In the vision of the clockwork fairy, the man's steps finally slowed down, and it seemed to be in place.

But it was just a dark alley, and the doors and windows around it were closed, and nothing unusual could be seen. A black cat crouched on the windowsill with a glowing green glow, and when the man entered the alley, it jumped off the windowsill with a sharp 'wow' cry and landed on an abandoned wooden barrel, looking back in this direction.

A moment later, it jumped off the barrel and disappeared in two or two clicks.

It was at this time that a shrill whistle suddenly sounded on the next street, and Fang Yu had heard the sound of those knights blowing brass whistles to arrest suspects during the day, which was exactly the same as this sound. He subconsciously turned his head in that direction, only to find that across the street, golden flames were rising in the night sky, and thick smoke was billowing from the sky.

"Fire?" Fang Yu was stunned.

But he only looked at it for a moment, then turned his attention back to the matter at hand. He didn't care what the knights were doing, the key was not to lose them, which was the most important thing at the moment.

It's just that he turned his head and looked into the wind mirror, but he stayed where he was, and he couldn't help but be surprised - he saw that the vision of the clockwork fairy was empty, and the man had long since disappeared without a trace.

Since he had considered various possibilities before coming, and he hadn't even thought that this might be a trap, Fang Yu immediately calmed down, and first ruled out a few obviously impossible options in his mind for the current situation.

First of all, could it be that he was distracted before and lost his goal? But it was only a matter of moments before the man kept his previous pace, and with his stiff steps, he would not have been able to get out of the alley in such a short time.

Could it be that he entered a certain door? This is a possibility, but since the other party invited him over and found that no one followed, at least he had to take a look, right? However, the dimly lit alley was silent, and apart from the shrill whistle of a block away, nothing changed from before.

However, the clockwork fairy was quite a distance away from the man before, and he kept a considerable distance from his own clockwork fairy in the back, so Fang Yu didn't worry about being discovered for a while. He immediately lifted his gloves and let the clockwork elf climb up quickly, trying to see what had happened from a higher height.

But the Clockwork Fairy's vision rose higher and higher, and there was still no shadow of the target in the alleys dotted around it, and even in the dark night, even a pedestrian was rare in these remote alleys.

He lifted the Clockwork Elf's vision and judged his position, he had followed the man for almost half an hour, and now he was almost far west of the town. Looking through the clockwork elves, you can even see the low stone walls on the outskirts of the town and the vast forest in the night.

Fang Yu was a little confused, wondering if he had managed to avoid a trap through a clockwork fairy. Although the current situation seems to be somewhat similar, after all, if the other party sincerely wants to meet with him, there should be no such incident.

As he quietly flew back to the clockwork fairy, he subconsciously glanced at the fire in the next block, which seemed to be a three-story apartment, with golden flames billowing from the roof, and thick smoke reaching into the sky, so that he couldn't see anything clearly. Many people gathered around that street, as if to put out the fire.

But as the vision of the clockwork fairy turned, Fang Yu suddenly discovered that in the alley behind him, there were several figures walking on the roof.

From above, the shadows dragged a long cloak and leaped across the adjacent rooftops, looking like they were human. However, among the adventurers, there are only a few professions that can do this, either nightingales or rangers.

When Fang Yu saw the direction of the figures clearly, his heart felt a slight pang, and the other party was actually coming in his direction. He subconsciously wanted to retreat, but it was too late, and a figure emerged from the roof not far away, pointing the longbow in his hand in this direction.

"Who's there?"

The other party shouted.

There was a rustling sound, and more figures appeared from the rooftops around them, each with a bow and crossbow in their hands, and the cold light of the arrows reflected the flickering flames a block away, which was slightly dazzling.

Fang Yu didn't know whether the other party was friend or foe, but he couldn't pin his hope of survival on these strangers of unknown origin. He didn't even have time to think about what had gone wrong, and immediately raised his hand and pressed it on the information crystal, ready to summon the dragon hunter to block in front of him.

But his movements were also obvious to the eyes of these rangers, and the ranger who was the leader let go of his hand, and there was a 'buzz' sound of the air trembling, like a little flickering cold light in the dark night, and the arrow broke through the air.

But a transparent ripple swept through the alley, and everywhere it passed, the roofs, doors and windows, and even the wooden tiles on the eaves creaked and rattled, and the tiles seemed to be plucked from the roof by an invisible hand, and they rose upside down one by one like fried cats, and the nails nailed to them were also pulled out, suspended in mid-air one by one.

The ripples struck the flying arrows, and the latter spun out like a gust of wind across the roof, and everyone could not hold their bows and crossbows, and they flew out of their hands, flew into the air, gathered together, and fell hard.

At that moment, the shingles and nails also fell one after another, and they fell to the ground with a clatter.

Only a few people could hold the bow in their hands, including the one who had just shot an arrow at Fang Yuan, but most of them had lost their arrows, and they didn't know what to do when they encountered such a bizarre event.

As for where most of the rangers had seen this, they all stood on the spot.

Fang Yu turned his head and looked in one direction of the alley, and sure enough, he saw the second middle school boy who had raised his collar and covered his face tightly, holding a magic wand, and walked out from that direction. On the other side, there was a maid lady standing at the mouth of the alley.

Shesta, putting on her arm guards, tilted her head from afar, looking at the enemies above the rooftop.

"Why are you here?" Fang Yu asked the box with his gaze.

The box glanced back at Shesta, and Fang Yu understood in seconds that the only person in the team who could command these two people was Sylvid.

Shesta only listened to her young lady's orders, but she would do something for him if she was embarrassed - at least serve tea and water, and treat him as her own young lady. As for the chest, after being praised a few times by Sylvid with an ecstasy soup of indifference and ruthlessness, it was completely bought.

However, Fang Yu felt a little annoyed, of course he understood that Sylvid was not at ease with himself, but this always gave him a feeling that he was not so reliable and at ease.

Of course, annoyance is annoyance, he can't say anything at the moment, fortunately the box is here, otherwise he would really suffer a big loss.

It was a long time before one of them shouted:

"Wizards of the Ringern School!"

That's another term for a magician of power, only because most wizards in this school are good at it.

This claim was clearly headed for the box, and the rangers must have mistaken the person, probably thinking that the box was a tower wizard, or even a secret master, both of which were high-level titles for magicians.

The archmage Karatu once served in the Bay of Hontus and was an occultist for a while, but of course he later advanced to the archmage, which is another story. However, for the Elector, the Secret Scholar is already a fourth-order profession, which is equivalent to thirty or higher.

What's more, the blow before the box was not only the power displayed by a magician around level 30.

In short, these people should have been shaken by the box.

However, the box quietly made a '2' gesture to Fang Yuan, and he pressed his magic glove with one hand, Fang Yuan knew very well that the previous scene was the credit of this glove. Shana's friend gave him and Ai Xiaoxiao a gift, and the gift to the box was this glove, which has a total of three charges, and each time after a long time of charging, it can greatly enhance its wearer's power spell.

Fang Yu hadn't heard of the origin of this glove either, but it was obviously worth a lot of money, and it shouldn't be the product of the First World.

The gesture given to him by the chest meant that the glove had two charges left, and that it would take several days for each charge in its natural state unless the Reservoir Crystal was used.

However, the battle did not continue, when a voice suddenly came from behind the rangers:

"Stop."

It was a woman's voice, and Fang Yu vaguely felt that this voice was somewhat familiar.

But just as he was looking for a matching voice from his memory, the owner of the voice had already appeared in his field of vision, and it was the woman named 'Sand Night'.

"Mr. Ed, we're meeting again," Sand Night looked at them condescendingly, the distant firelight reflected her long red ponytail hair, and the tips of her hair seemed to be burning, and a complicated light flashed in her green eyes: "I don't know if you remember us?" ”

Fang Yu nodded, in fact, after what happened in the judgment field, he had already remembered where he had seen the other party: "You are from Tapolis, why are you here, I heard that after leaving Idris, don't you plan to go to Fenris?" Also, what is your relationship with the Ravental Temple? ”

He asked several questions in a row, and these questions had puzzled him for the past two days.

Sandnight shook her head slightly: "There is no Tapolis anymore. ”

She didn't seem to want to talk about it too much, so she put her back on her back and jumped over the roof, landing steadily, before getting up. Seeing this, the other rangers also put away their weapons one after another, and came down from the roof, making a circle in all directions.

Chest and Shesta also came over.

"What's going on?" Fang Yu was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but ask with some surprise.

At the time Idris met these men, the Oak Knights didn't seem to be doing very well at the time, but now they seem to be even worse. How could the people of Tapolis be confronted by the Crowtalon Temple, shouldn't they have been co-opted by the Rainbow Alliance or the Descendants of Flor?

He asked, looking at the crowd around him, and there didn't seem to be many familiar faces among the rangers.

"Don't look at them," replied Sand Night's voice a little coldly, as her tone seemed to be, "they're not from Tapolis, we're just in the same boat, we're 'refugees,' as I answered you last time." ”

"Refugees?"

"I'll tell you what's going on, Mr. Eddard," Sandnight put her hand behind her head and untied her ponytail, letting her long red hair fall through as if out of battle, as if out of battle, as she walked forward, "Actually, I didn't expect you to arrive so quickly, I was already out of hope......" she looked back at the trio, "but get out of this place anyway, before the Ravental Knight arrives." ”

Fang Yu was taken aback: "Wait, Fang Cai's person was sent by you?" ”

Sha Ye glanced at them with turquoise eyes and nodded, "...... I told Abigail to come to you, but...... Forget it, come with me, let's go to a safe place first. ”

Fang Yu was full of doubts, but he didn't know where to start for a while, he had imagined various possibilities, but he hadn't thought about this.

"By the way," he suddenly asked, "what about Sora?" ”

The ranger boy with a somewhat similar personality to his own, he remembered that when he was in Idris, he also gave the other party a magic bow.

But after hearing this question, Sand Night's face suddenly showed some indescribable looks, but it took a while. She looked at Fang Yuan, and suddenly lowered her guard: "You actually remember him." ”

"Of course."

Fang Yu was secretly annoyed in his heart - what do you mean by thinking to yourself, looking down on people? He has a good memory.

"Sora may be leaving Attaria," but Sandnight suddenly replied, "The bow you gave him gave him a lot of motivation, and he has improved very much during this time...... Forget it, don't talk about this, in fact, I didn't want to trouble you, and this side of the matter has nothing to do with you...... But ever since he knew you had let us go on the Judgment Ground, he had wanted to see you......"

"He's leaving Aitalia, why?"

Fang Yu suddenly closed his mouth.

The Electors sometimes used euphemisms to describe their way out of Aitalia, and for the Earthlings, it was an alternative return. But it's actually another word for 'death', in this world, another life is lost forever.

But the suggestion that the Chosen Ones' deaths are often sudden, and that they may be leaving Aitaria sounds a little striking.

"What vicious curse did he fall into?" Fang Yu could only think of this possibility for a while.

"It's a bit hard to say."

Sha Ye shook his head, his expression was a little tired: "If you don't delay your time, if you are willing to meet him, you may understand." ”

Fang Yu looked at the box and Shesta on the side.

Then he nodded: "Take us there, by the way I want to know what really happened." ”

Sand Night glanced at them, noncommittal, only turned around and walked towards the other end of the alley.

The curious eyes of the rangers also roamed over the three of them, of course, they were still concerned about the box that had been standing silently aside, after all, in their opinion, it was a tower witch, or a secret master, a big man above level 30.

Among the Electors with an average level of only twenty-five, it can already be regarded as the upper end of the pyramid.

In particular, the level of these people is generally only seventeen or eighteen, and there are few of them at level twenty, and they are at the same level as the Crowclaw Knights outside, or even slightly stronger, and they are also famous adventurers in this area. But it's nothing compared to 'legendary' characters above level 30.

In the north, there are the spears of the silver forest, the silver veslan, and the Jeffrey Redcoats, these are all large guilds with a scale of tens of thousands of people, but there are more than thirty recruits in the entire guild, and there will not be more than one percent.

Even if there are some folk masters, they are either the leaders of the major free mercenary adventure groups, and they are rare, and most of them are old.

People were whispering, talking to each other: "Miss Sand Night actually knows such a master?" ”

"After all, Miss Sand Night is from the Oak Knights, and Tapolis' past brigade has such masters, so this is nothing in her opinion."

"That's right."

From the words of these people, Fang Yu believed what the other party said before, and it seemed that these people were really not from Tapolis.

He retracted his gaze, followed, and couldn't help but ask, "Do you recognize us?" ”

Sandnight was putting her hand on a door, and looked back at them after hearing the question.

"We are not stupid, we have met twice, if we can't guess who you are, wouldn't we have a pair of eyes in vain."

"How many genius alchemists there are at Cowlin-Ishurian's age, you can guess with your eyes closed."

"Really, Mr. Eddard?"
