The dark guard girl "Xia" with a white cat-face mask quickly shuttles through the woods with Tong Xi in her arms.

If it was usual, Tong Xi would definitely find out that their current direction was not the direction of going back to the Austin Imperial Capital.

The reason is very simple, Rare has already explained, there will definitely be an ambush at the exit of the woods, as long as you pass through the woods from the other side, you can quickly reach the meeting point with the support that arrives.

If you go out directly from the front now, I believe that the support from the imperial capital will directly hit the enemy's arms before it arrives, so Riel will set the meeting point on the other side of the deep forest.

But at this time, Tong Xi must not be able to wipe it, maybe it is because he has it, but he is not in the mood and has no interest in questioning.

The dark guard girl "Kasumi" jumped quickly on the branches and looked down at the girl in her arms.

The redness and swelling on the girl's eyes had not faded at this time, and she stayed quietly in her arms, staring at her arms with a pair of big red eyes, as if she was still hiccupping at this time because she had cried too much just now.

She was just a twelve-year-old child who had been betrayed by trusted relatives in one day, friends who were not saved, and most importantly, her father who was ...... for her

The dark guard girl "Xia" looked at Tong Xi in her arms, her eyes full of pity......

At this time, any comfort is pale and powerless, all she can do is continue to hold Tong Xi with her left hand, and gently press Tong Xi's head into her arms with her right hand.

There are many things that can only be faced by yourself, and others can't help at all.

The dark guard girl "Kasumi", who was moving at high speed in the tree, swept her eyes behind her, and sure enough, in the gap between the trees, you could see that many people had chased after her in the distance!

The dark guard girl "Xia" was infused with fighting energy on her feet, and the yellow light flickered, and her speed suddenly increased again.

But holding a person in his arms at this time, it will definitely have a certain impact on speed, even if the dark guard girl "Xia" was originally a martial artist who was good at speed, but at this time, holding a person, under the full force of the fighting spirit, it was still constantly being followed by the people behind him.

The corner of the dark guard girl "Kasumi" swept behind her and roughly measured the distance between the two sides.

At this distance, you can reach the meeting point with support before the opponent catches up with you.

Suddenly, the face of the dark guard girl "Kasumi" changed, because just now, when the corner of her eyes kept sweeping behind her to confirm the distance of the pursuer, she saw a red-gold dragon-shaped flame roaring towards her!

Rank 9 magic "Red Flame Golden Dragon"! Among the pursuers are high-level magicians!

I saw that the dark guard girl "Xia" did not choose to block, but continued to hold Tong Xi at full speed without looking back, but suddenly threw a dagger backwards with her right hand.

"Boom!" The dagger wrapped in yellow fighting qi accurately hit the red-golden dragon-shaped flame, and the dagger collided with the flame and detonated instantly, exploding a dazzling golden flame.

This is also because this "Red Flame Golden Dragon" is cast from a long enough distance, plus its attack trajectory is fixed, so the dark guard girl "Kasumi" can easily intercept it. It's like a straight ball flying towards himself, so this ninth-level magic will be easily hit by the dagger of the dark guard girl "Xia", and it will detonate in advance in the air.

The flames didn't blow up on the two of them, and even so, how could high-level magic be so easily dissolved?

The shockwave generated by the explosion not far away can still cause a lot of damage to the dark guard girl "Kasumi" who is running and has no time to make any defensive moves.

The huge impact instantly broke through the yellow fighting shield of the dark guard girl "Xia" and smashed on her back.

"Poof!" The Dark Guard Maiden spurted out a mouthful of blood in response, but her footsteps did not stop, but used the impact to run forward with a speed that soared again, instantly opening up a distance from the pursuers behind her.

Tong Xi, who had been staying quietly in her arms, only felt a burst of wetness on her forehead, and this feeling continued to flow down her forehead.

Tong Xi stretched out his hand in a daze, and then put it in front of him, the bright red on his right hand in front of him was extremely dazzling.

Since separating from Rare's father just now, Tong Xi's reaction has been so stunned, maybe it's because there are so many things that have happened in such a short period of time? Anyway, Tong Xi at this time obviously didn't ease up, just looked at his red right hand in a daze.

Suddenly, the voice of the dark guard girl "Xia" came from overhead, interrupting Tong Xi's thoughts.

"Xiaoxi, I'll put you down later, you just need to stay there quietly and don't move or make a sound. If in the evening, no one has come to pick you up, then you turn this on. The dark guard girl "Xia" said, stuffing a red signal flare into Tong Xi's hand in her arms.

Tong Xi looked at the red signal flare in his hand in a daze and blinked......

Tong Xi is not stupid, with this situation, coupled with the actions of the secret guard girl "Xia", it is not difficult to guess whether she wants to find a hidden branch or grass at this time, and then take advantage of the fact that the pursuers behind her are far enough away to not be easy to find, and put Tong Xi down.

If the Dark Guard girl "Kasumi" manages to escape, then she will definitely come and pick her up soon with reinforcements.

If the Dark Guard Maiden "Kasumi" fails to escape, then this flare is to inform the support of her location.

For example, the signal flare in Tong Xi's hand at this time must be specially made, and this specially made signal flare needs supporting instruments to detect.

"Xia ......" Tong Xi reached out and touched the tears that overflowed again, but soon they flowed out again and slid down his cheeks.

"Don't cry, I like Xiaoxi the most. As I said, I'll always be with you. The dark guard girl Kasumi "has black eyes that appear under the mask of a white cat face, full of smiles.

"Okay, right in front of the bush, I'll put you down in about twenty seconds."

"Xiaoxi, don't move obediently." The dark guard girl "Xia" said with a smile, and at the same time gently touched the back of Tong Xi's head with her right hand.

"Xia ......" Tong Xi stretched out his hands and rubbed his eyes, and after letting go of his hands, the big light blue eyes that were bloodshot and red regained their firm looks.

"At least...... At the end of the day, I wanted to know what the people who guarded me really looked like. ”

"I want to remember every important person." Tong Xi looked at the dark guard girl "Xia", and said in a firm tone.

The dark guard girl "Kasumi" was stunned for a moment, and then her black eyes returned to smiling again.

"Okay." The dark guard girl "Kasumi" smiled.

Tong Xi stretched out her hands that had been stained red with blood, and gently took off the familiar cat face mask that had been by her side since childhood.

Under the Mask......
