Chapter 322 - A Chance Encounter with the Electric Flock
There has always been a delicate relationship between the Northern Church and the Southern family territories.
As the gathering place of the two Star Spirits on the Star Spirit Continent, everything here is developing steadily.
But there are indeed many open and secret battles between the two territories, and there are formidable family mages in the southern families, and in the northern churches, there are bishops who also understand the mysteries of magic.
Evenly matched, but also interconnected, is the status quo on both sides.
And Gloria, although an ordinary woman, is a powerful executor in the Southern Family, and a chief intelligence officer of the Starr family.
Gloria gets the news that the church in the north will occupy Birch Town in the south, much to Gloria's anxiety.
On the one hand, the recent strife between the families has intensified, and many mages are involved, and on the other hand, none of the recently born children in the family have a magical reaction.
As an intelligence officer, Gloria knew what a threat Birch Town would pose to the family if it became a base for the Church.
Therefore, Gloria took the news and wanted to come to Birch Town with the ship and bring the news she learned to the dark line of Birch Town, hoping to catch up with the situation in Birch Town before it got out of control.
Unfortunately, Gloria's plan failed, even though Gloria got the news early and she was supposed to arrive in Birch Town early. But the plan didn't change, and Wolf looted Gloria and imprisoned her in a dungeon, hoping to earn a share of the Starr family's money through Gloria.
Later, it was the arrival of Boris that allowed Gloria to escape, and originally Gloria also wanted Borris, who had the power to shock her, to help the family and complete the expulsion of the knights of Birch Harbor.
But the sudden teleportation left Gloria in despair...... She was teleported to a town south of the Church, and by then, Gloria knew it was too late. In desperation to find Boris to no avail, Gloria had no choice but to return to the family territory first, tell the elders what she knew, and then wait for her punishment or the next mission.
"Alright, Gloria, the family already knows what you said." The elder said, "There may have been an accident, but Gloria, you have to be punished for delaying important information. ”
"Yes, Elder." Gloria said with her head down.
The elder nodded, "I'll take the punishment myself, I'll explain another task to you." ”
"Instructions, Elder."
"The affairs of Birch Town are difficult for the family to intervene in, the gathering of wandering mages there prevents our intervention, and the church does not exist there for a day or two. Birch Town, as a territory in the rear of the family, is a great threat to the family, but fortunately, there is still the Siand Desert that can block the church's front and rear attacks. ”
Gloria listened quietly, "As for the person you said was called Boris, the family will try to find her, and if she really has the power you say, the family may consider taking him under the family's protection." ”
The elder said slowly, "Recently, something strange has happened in the Siander Desert, we need to find the source of this matter, if it is a power that we can control, it must be held in our hands, and the control of the Siander Desert, we can no longer lose it." ”
"Yes, Elder."
"Master Siz is the person in charge of this operation, you go to him and he will tell you exactly what you need to do."
"Sitz? …… Yes, Elder. Gloria retired. With that, Gloria left the elder's room.
……
Siander Desert, the magic tower of Siez.
"Oh, it's you, Gloria, long time no see, the little girl has grown into an adult."
"Yes...... Uncle Sitz. Gloria stood in front of Sitz, her eyes slightly staring at the magic towers on either side. Stone buildings, strange pillars, patterns everywhere, and books.
"What's the matter with this visit?" Sitz sat there casually and said.
"It was the Elder who asked me to cooperate with you, Uncle Sitz."
"Huh?" Siz glanced at Gloria, "Gloria, you must know that there are traces of demons found in the desert of Sander, and I don't want my lovely niece to be harmed in any way. ”
"Uncle Sitz...... I'm the ...... of the family."
"Okay, well, since those old fellows sent you to me, it means that they want you to recuperate here for a while." Sitz said, gesturing to the side seat. "Don't be so serious, come, sit here, and talk about what has happened after not seeing you for so long. …… Do you have a sweetheart? ”
"Uncle......," Gloria said helplessly.
The two talked for a long time, and they talked about this operation all the time.
"How about giving you a mission to follow Uncle Ziz to the Siander Desert?"
"Yes, Uncle Sitz." Gloria let go a little, then asked, "Where are we going?" ”
"I've tried some ways to find the source of this anomaly, and the approximate location is deep in the desert, in the heart of the east." "But there's a force there, so I'd like to strengthen that magic a bit." But one thing was missing, a fresh electric ram's horn. ”
"So we're heading to the oasis of electric sheep?"
"yes, maybe you'll be able to make it in time for a nice dinner." Sitz said with a smile.
……
Ollie could never have imagined that the mutton, which seemed to make his mouth water, would discharge and be so aggressive.
The electric sheep moved together, and the momentum was so great that Ollie even felt that he was a little unlucky, and targeted the leader.
The flock followed the electric sheep with a wound on their bodies and red eyes chasing after them.
Pease was already weak, and he ran in the desert again, racing against the electric sheep.
Weak enough to lose strength on his feet, his legs tripped, and Pease lay on his stomach on the sand, and Ollie took Pease by the hand and dragged him on the sand for some distance.
"Stand up~" Ollie urged Pease, but the distance between them was getting closer and closer, and Ollie could even see the two horns on the head of the electric sheep flashing with lightning.
"Protection!" A loud shout came from a distance, and an invisible barrier appeared in front of the two of them, and it actually blocked the electric sheep.
Then a figure rushed from the side, picked up Ollie and Pease sideways, and rushed out of the horizontal range of the flock impact.
The speed of the electric sheep slammed down, and then the transparent shield disappeared, the electric sheep suddenly lost their blocking, the front sheep rushed to the ground, and the electric sheep that followed behind couldn't control the speed and crashed into it.
"It looks like a good payoff." Sitz's voice came from the side, and his figure appeared in the distance of the desert, "Gloria, are those two little ones alright?" ”
"It's fine. …… Well, what is it? ”
Ollie's eyes and Gloria's eyes met, "Huh...... You are? ”
“…… This fox can talk! Gloria said in surprise.
