Although Tianlan expressed great curiosity about the 'old acquaintance' in the mouth of the big cat, it was a pity that no matter how much she asked, Red didn't say anything.

Tianlan had no choice but to shut up.

Afterwards, there was a discussion about the South, as there had recently been a new message from the Elffindor Council, and there seemed to be another riot in Dulun. And someone took advantage of the chaos to attack the Duke's mansion, but the result is unknown, but the Duke seems to be still unharmed.

"I heard that it was Enan who discovered the conspiracy of those people in advance." Alyssa whispered.

"Those people?" Fang Yu asked.

"They claim to be cultists to the outside, but the community generally believes that it was the prime minister's hand."

Fang Yu asked Tata again, after all, Miss Fairy often pays attention to what is happening in the community, and she also got a positive answer.

However, Fang Yu himself had a different opinion, after all, both had the motivation to do it. Needless to say, the Prime Minister's party should also hope that the southern border will be in chaos, right?

It seems that after the Van Rik incident, the other party has no intention of stopping.

Luo Hao mentioned that in this incident, there seemed to be the shadows of other adventurers, in fact, the other party relied on the power of the elector to thwart the other party's conspiracy. Fang Yu was not surprised to hear this, with the reputation of the duke's son, it was not surprising that he could find someone to help.

It's just that the other party seems to have changed its original low-key and changed to take the initiative. But the Seven Seas Brigade has been in the south, and it is not clear what is going on in Dulun, and it seems that the duke's son is in some trouble.

"Speaking of which, Enan has written you a letter," Sylved said, "but the letterhead is slower than the other information, and it is probably still on the way." ”

Fang Yu nodded.

In fact, the crowd was no more than outsiders to the battle in Dulun, so the discussion was only superficial and was quickly ignored.

After a short discussion, Fang Yu privately asked Attila about the big cat man. But Miss Elf only shook her head and said that she hadn't asked Red about it.

Fang Yu thought about it for a while, and then he didn't inquire anymore, but he kept this matter in his heart.

The nearby Panir Cunning Spider had almost been slaughtered by the Hill Giants, but after all, it was still near the Spider Forest, and the people of the Nanami Brigade were not too worried about the safety of the valley, so they let Mr. Graystone leave overnight.

After leaving the basin, the procession continued on - the rain had ceased by noon the next day, and after the clouds had cleared, the group finally made its way out of the Parnier Canyon.

The forest disappeared on the other side of the valley, the crimson cliffs and bright yellow sand gradually took over, and the last green in the desert began to change to dry shrubs.

It seems that the natural environment is very different just a mountain away. And three days later, the Seven Seas Brigade finally arrived at the destination marked on the map.

……

"See, that's Idus."

Baggins crouched on the edge of the cliff and said to the crowd.

The crowd lay on the dry, cracked rocks and looked in the direction he said.

The sun was casting a light purple shadow on the shady side of the valley, and beneath that shadow was the undulating walls of Idus. The walls of the city that used to be majestic are now only a shallow gray shadow. The marks of civilization have long since been erased, but the sand has not yet completely engulfed the ruins of the city, and it is like a huge dead thing, docked there silently.

The hot wind below is kicking up clouds of dust. At the edge of the sand sea, it seems to be easier to get closer to the sky than in other regions, and the sun is unusually low and huge, licking the lifeless valley with a vicious flame.

But it's not completely lifeless.

Attila whispered, "Someone's coming." ”

"Anyone?" Tianlan lowered her voice and asked, looking left and right curiously: "Where, why didn't I see it?" ”

But Alyssa saw it right away, and then the others.

At the end of the valley there was a small group of men and horses, wriggling like ants, and it was only when they got closer to see the pack beast in the procession, an artiodactyl that could store water like a camel, and was adept at navigating the desert. Desert traders in Istanya kept them for their mounts and as heavy animals, and the Plover had seen them in Elpahim.

"Is it a caravan?"

Fang Yu shook his head.

Desert caravans don't have so many people riding on the backs of pack beasts, which are an important asset for desert caravans, especially when crossing the sand sea, and the merchants will try to conserve their stamina as much as possible. Moreover, after the destruction of Idus, the Istanians traveled north along this mountain range into the northern hinterland of Kaurin, and the ancient trade route south of the Long River Lake had been abandoned for a long time.

As he thought about it, he released his clockwork goblin, and the golden ball flew out with a 'buzz'. However, Fang Yu did not let the clockwork fairy fly directly down the cliff, but made some detours, because the shell of the fairy under the sun was easy to reflect.

He cautiously let it fly down the shadow side of a cracked mountain pass. Despite some detours, the clockwork elf quickly reached the vicinity of the target.

When Fang Yu saw this team clearly, he couldn't help but pause. Because he found that there was not only one group of people in this team, but two distinct sides, one of whom was in rags, and was obviously escorted forward by the other. On the other side, they were dressed in red turbans and white, and almost everyone was armed with a machete, and some were spears or firearms.

Fang Yu counted them, and there were eleven of them, five of whom were riding on pack beasts, and the rest were on foot. The detainees were only seven people, men and women, and one child.

Could it be that a desert caravan has been hijacked? He couldn't help but think that since ancient times, there have been merchants and robbers, and there will be no exception on any trade route. But how could the caravan come to Idus, and now the nearest trade route is at least a few dozen miles away from here.

And he didn't recognize the kidnappers, so he had to look back and tell the others about the situation.

But when he heard Fang Yu describe the other party's outfit, the big cat's eyes seemed a little meaningful. Baggins, who was on the side, replied affirmatively, "It's the Blood Shark Pirate." ”

Fang Yu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

He looked at Rhett on the side, he didn't expect it to be so coincidental, he only mentioned this matter a few days ago, but he didn't expect it to happen today. However, considering that Elffindor also pointed out that the Blood Shark pirates were operating in this area, according to their previous speculation, it seemed reasonable to meet each other.

And the big cat man only touched his chin lightly, looked at his gaze and replied: "Don't look at me, this time is different from the past, I am a member of this team, naturally listen to the little guy you arranged." ”

"Brother Ed, should we save those people?" Kita asked in a whisper.

"Of course you have to save it," Tianlan replied as a matter of course, "how pitiful the other party is, it won't end well if you are caught by those vicious people." And they're businessmen, so we saved them, so we have to do some good, right? ”

She suddenly stopped and looked at the others: "What are you looking at me doing like that, shouldn't you be paid to save people?" ”

"But now it's not a question of pay, Sky Blue," replied Alyssa, "but whether it's worth the surprise." ”

Fang Plover also frowned, this is Aitalia, they can save people, but they can't stop the Blood Shark Pirate from resurrecting back. Once they do so, the other party will know that there is an enemy around them, and they will not only be vigilant, but they may also send men to find them.

After all, this was near Idus, not in the Panir Gorge, closer to the other party's possible 'stronghold', and there were not many places to hide. Besides, he hadn't forgotten that there was not only a Blood Shark pirate here, but also people from the Dragonfire Guild.

Tianlan's eyes were shining, and she looked at the others a little incredulously: "But that's a lot of lives, Brother Ed, we won't die without saving, right?" ”

"Won't they necessarily die, and won't they be resurrected?" The Paparal muttered quietly.

"Shut up, Parker."

"Okay." The Paparrals spread their hands.

"Sky Blue, don't get in the way of Eddard's decision." Attila quietly reminded herself.

"Sister Attila, that's what you say......" Tianlan glanced at Fang Yuan, and also realized that it would be troublesome to do it, although she looked a little reluctant, but finally closed her mouth.

Ai Xiaoxiao looked at the others in the back at this time, and couldn't help but put forward her opinion curiously: "But can't we tie them up, as long as they don't die, they won't be resurrected, right?" ”

Tang Xin was a little speechless for her friend's remarks: "Then won't they commit suicide?" ”

"But Sugar Candy, why don't we tie them up and stuff a rag in their mouths?"

"My little princess, is suicide so simple in your mind?"

"Well, isn't it?"

Sylvade smiled and shook her head, and then explained to her that in Aitalia, people can cut off their own starlight. Unless it's using some special creation and magic, it's extremely troublesome to imprison a person.

Anchor Stones, for example, can isolate the coordinates of Starlight, so that people can only be resurrected in place after death - of course, except for the Sinsas Snake Man, no one would have the luxury of using Anchor Stones to make dungeons. People tend to use a cheaper material:

Hengshi.

In fact, this crystal-like rock mass was also widely used to build temples, and only served as the coordinate base point of the altar of the resurrection.

The principle of using it to build a prison is simple, the prison itself is an altar of resurrection, governed by the god of law and guardian of the city, Terravottu, or the domain of the goddess of the plague, Moya Dimas, and it is not entirely wrong to say that the prison of Aitalia is an alternative 'temple'.

Even the cultists' black prisons often believe in a dark saint or demon lord who has the function of imprisonment, which has a similar effect.

It's just that they don't have Hengshi at hand, and even if they do, it's unlikely that they will be able to build a prison in a short period of time - when making the platform, Fang Yu didn't have such a consideration at all. However, it only occurred to him now that there would be at least one such 'prison altar' on the Seven Seas Traveler in the future.

Otherwise, it would be really troublesome to encounter such a situation as it is now.

Ai Xiaoxiao said 'oh' and shrank back obediently.

"Ed, if you want to make a move," Attila spoke again, "I might be able to help." ”

Fang Yu looked at Miss Elf unexpectedly, and suddenly his eyes lit up.

"By the way," he reacted, "Miss Attila, you are a believer in Ameya!" ”

"The unicorn saint, to be exact," replied the big cat man, "As the goddess of the forest, Amea's followers are naturally responsible for expelling and punishing those who intruder with bad intentions, so the forest itself is part of the priesthood of imprisonism." ”

"Speaking of which," Red looked at Attila and smiled, "Our Elf Miss was in charge of this when she was in the Temple, and I was trapped in the forest by them in the first place, but fortunately Ameya and Lady Marlan have a good relationship." ”

Attila glanced at the big cat man, who immediately shut his mouth.

Then she said softly: "Among Lord Ameya's divine arts, there are indeed spells about imprisonment, but they need a forest to cast them, and after all, they are spell effects, and they don't last. If you want to imprison people for a long time, you still have to have Hengshi. ”

"I can create a forest environment." Ji Ta held her magic guide book in both hands and said quickly.

Fang Ou looked at Attila again.

In the case that there is a way to imprison the other party and make it impossible for the other party to go back to resurrect the message, he is of course inclined to make a move. Not only because he could save people, but more importantly, he wanted to catch two 'tongues' early on to see what was going on between the Blood Shark Pirates and the Dragonfire Guild. These two people, plus a dragon-worshipping sect, gathered in Idus, so he would not believe that it was just a coincidence.

Miss Elf nodded.

Baggins thought for a moment and said, "Then you have to fight quickly, and you can't have accidents in the battle." ”

"That's no problem," Fang Yu replied immediately, he was afraid of his new goggles as if showing off, this thing can analyze the enemy's attribute values, of course he has already used the other party as an experiment. "Those Blood Shark Pirates are not very powerful, and their strength and agility are not highly evaluated, so it is estimated that they will not exceed level fourteen at most."

Level fourteen doesn't sound too high, but among the ordinary natives of Aitalia, it's not a low level. In Aitalia, whether it is the Kaorin-Eshurian or the Osyrians, or most of the continental countries, the average level is actually only this level.

This may seem strange.

But just think about it, an elite like the Knight of Dawn or the Guard of the Dawn of Dawn will not exceed level twenty-five among the ordinary knights. And once they exceed level twenty-five, they are often awarded the position of Knight Captain.

After all, the aborigines are no better than the electors, and the combat profession is far more difficult and dangerous than the promotion of the life profession. And even if it is a Elector, there are not many people who can reach level 30 or above, after all, the cognitive experience will have a huge decay after the two steps of level 10 and level 20, and this attenuation after level 20 is far more violent than the time of level 10.

In fact, now Fang Yu has begun to feel this attenuation, killing monsters below level twenty, and almost no experience is recorded; And monsters higher than level 20 are not easy to kill, not to mention, and the experience is not much less.

Above level 20, they will enter the realm of senior adventurers in Aitalia, and the way to level up is completely different from the rookie stage. Before level 20, guilds and adventure parties can also use 'monster farming' or experience items to quickly get through this stage of the newcomers they have cultivated, although the investment is huge, but it is not without shortcuts.

However, after level 20, mature adventuring parties and guild teams must complete their promotion through another way - to accumulate fame and complete various events in order to gain enough cognitive experience, which is the real reason why the Super Athletic Alliance can allocate resources to the major guilds.

This process is often not smooth overnight. For example, Scapet and Quilrod have been in Aitaria for a long time, but their level has not increased much over time, and in fact, before they left Aitalia, they have not exceeded level 30.

More than level 30, that is the realm of a strong party.

It sounds like there are many Electors over level 30 in the major top guilds, and there are even a large number of top masters in the second world. If you zoom it out to the whole of Aitalia, it's actually only a handful - the total population of 20 million of the Electees is less than 12/12 of the natives.

What's more, among the 20 million people, how many are active players, how many are retired players, and how many of them can be called strong?

Therefore, in the eyes of the Seven Seas Travelers, the level of Blood Shark Pirate is normal, and it would seem strange if it is higher, after all, these people may just be ordinary members at the moment. And the reason why Baggins mentioned it so much is also because there are still elites among the Blood Shark Pirates after all.

Now that the enemy's level has been determined, the arrangement of the battle is naturally simple and straightforward, and there is no need to engage them with the 'Gray Scale' brigade as complicated.

In fact, they just waited at the top of the cliff and waited for the other side to pass below the valley before launching a surprise attack - the pirates seemed to have no idea that they would be attacked again in this place, not to mention the huge difference in combat effectiveness, so the battle was almost overwhelming from the beginning.

Kita summoned a vast expanse of the Illusory Rainforest at any cost, and then, under the spell of Attila, the aerial roots on the towering ancient trees came to life, entwining the Blood Shark pirates one by one. Then she put a magical imprint on them—cutting them off from Starlight one by one.

On the other side, there is no suspense in the battle between Fang Plover, Big Cat Man, Baggins and the captain of this pirate team, the other party's level is slightly higher than that of ordinary pirates, but no matter how high it is, it can't be higher than the three of them joining forces. It's just a round, and the opponent loses the battle.

The big cat man didn't kill him, but threw him into the 'rainforest', and the aerial roots wrapped around him like a snake and tied him up to death. In the end, Miss Elf concocted it according to the law, and the battle ended abruptly after the opening minutes.

Attila placed a magic mark on the pirate captain before she walked over to the other plover and said, "With my level, the mark should last for forty-eight hours, but it is in the sacred grove of the Great Tree Hill, and I can't guarantee that here." ”

Tian Lan was afraid that Fang Yu would regret it, so he replied, "Almost two days, it should be enough." ”

Fang Yu glanced at this little girl with a smile, could he still regret this thing?

"Even if it's not enough," and Luo Hao on the side sweated profusely and put down the big shield, and echoed: "Two days later, the other party will only know that there is an enemy nearby." In fact, in terms of timeliness, it no longer makes much sense. ”

Fang Yu heard this sentence before he nodded, thinking that this was indeed the case.
