In the blue sky, a few white clouds floated slowly. On the blue sea, a white medium-sized freighter slumped with the waves. The cabin and mast floated high into the air with a puff of gray-black smoke.

On the deck of the ship stood hundreds of merchants, sailors, wandering knights, or low-ranking apprentices in all kinds of costumes. They gathered together in a circle, their faces beaming with horror. Because there were twelve well-equipped full-fledged knights and a third-order top apprentice gathered around, that was the apprentice who could break through to a first-order mage just by condensing the sea of meditation.

"Let me go, or you won't be able to escape. I am the second son of the Duke of Slot, Kingdom of Rudin. ”

A young nobleman in a snow-white robe with blond hair in a shawl shouted vigorously. His face was full of anger, and he gritted his teeth and cursed.

The black-robed apprentice walked up to him and looked at the young nobleman in front of him playfully. On the pale skin, a pair of red eyes with the look of a vulture looking at its prey, smiled: "Even if you are the second son of the duke, this ship is under our control." Of course, if you have enough money, women, magic stones, and various herb resources, we can still let you go. ”

"As long as you let me go, my father will pay you what you want." The young aristocracy has some confidence.

Syllable!

"I just want to have it in stock." The black-robed man slapped the young nobleman, turned his head and glanced viciously at the bodies of the surrounding merchants, and said disdainfully: "A group of ordinary miscellaneous people, listen to me." Hurry up and hand over all the valuable things on your body, otherwise you don't want to get out of the Purple Demon Sea alive. ”

"As long as we pay the money, can you let us go?"

"If you give it. How much does it cost to count as a person. ”

"How to trust you."

Hundreds of people knew that the other party wanted money, and some wealthy businessmen immediately realized the value of it. If it's a fixed price for everyone. Maybe you can give less.

A middle-aged man in the middle wore a hood, and his brown-gray eyes flashed inexplicably in the shadows. Carefully pull your right hand toward your right wrist. A pitch-black dagger immediately popped out. The hilt of the dagger was connected to several black lines inside the robe.

He stood there silently, unobtrusive.

"You are not qualified to bargain with me, Lao Tzu can say as much as he wants. All you have to do is give me all the money you have. ”

The gray-robed man stood at the front, and said cheerfully.

The wooden door to the cabin on the right is half-open, and a leather-armored pirate with twin knives stands by the door to watch every merchant and wanderer who emerges from the bottom of the ship.

Suddenly, a faint salty sea breeze blew. The thief touched his itchy nose and noticed a man in a black robe and a black metal bracelet on his left hand coming out of the door. His face wasn't that handsome. But with waist-length tricolor hair, it looks bewitching and unusual.

He chuckled out of the cabin and walked all the way to the crowd.

"Settle down." The pirate originally wanted to intimidate a few more words, but he always felt that the black-robed man in front of him was strange and exuded a faint sense of danger. This inexplicable sixth sense made him only five words in his mouth, and he didn't care why there were no pirates behind him.

"This group of pirates is really funny, and they even start robbing in the middle of the voyage. In this case, there should be habitable islands nearby. Grant chuckled and prepared to make a move. This group of pirates is causing trouble and putting back the schedule of arriving in the nightmare border town.

It is necessary for Grant to show the group in front of him the consequences!

He held out his right hand. A red light the size of a mung bean appeared on the tip of the index finger, and a slight red light reflected on the hand.

At this moment, an afterimage moved around him, with a light breeze.

Poof!

Poof!

A black afterimage swept past the two leather-clad knights. The knight's neck, who had been alive a second before, suddenly cracked open with a huge wound, gushing blood. With two thuds, he fell to the ground.

Among the pirates. A look of surprise welled up on the gray-robed apprentice's face. Immediately, tear open a defensive scroll. And his toes kept falling backwards, trying to get out of range.

Dingdingding......

When the black shadow touches the scroll defense armor. His body froze, and he could no longer maintain the same speed as before. A clean face was revealed under the brown hood, with good facial features, but it was not handsome, it could only be said to be the same as a passerby. It seems that he is estimated to be around thirty or forty years old, and a pair of brown eyes is the most attractive part of the facial features, because the gaze of the eyes is extremely sharp.

His expression changed slightly, and a trace of surprise crossed his eyes, as if he didn't expect that there would be a mid-first order defense scroll in the apprentice's hand.

Because the black dagger in his hand could not pierce the light blue armor, the black shadow did not take a step back, and took out a folding sword from his chest with one hand. The three blade cracks are stacked on top of each other, connected by tiny beads in between.

The black-robed man touched the hilt of the sword and threw it towards the air, and in the snapping sound, the three golden sword blocks were like magnets, spliced together, turning into a thin sword.

Syllable!

He twisted his toes and stabbed straight through with the help of momentum. The black-robed apprentice couldn't help but sneer when he saw that the other party was unsuccessful once and continued to attack him with his sword. This defensive spell would take three hits to destroy even a mid-tier mage. What is this official knight in front of him?

Before he finished speaking, his eyes suddenly changed with astonishment and fear. Because when the tip of the sword touches the armor, it instantly absorbs the energy of the light armor and penetrates the body, stabbing a deep chill.

"No...... This is impossible, how can an ordinary sword have such power. Is it the ultimate enchanted weapon or a demonic weapon? But how can a knight use ......" The gray-robed apprentice covered his bloody chest, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but tremble. He really couldn't believe that he would die at the hands of an official knight.

The middle-aged swordsman gasped heavily, a large amount of white heat erupted from the tip of his nose, and a lot of sweat oozed from his forehead. It seems that a lot of physical strength has been exhausted in the battle in front of him.

Brush! Brush! Brush! Brush!

The remaining ten official knights immediately drew their swords, and said with anger and hostility in their eyes: "He killed the first student of the Great Boss, and we will capture this man alive and hand it over to the Great Boss." ”

"That's right, you can't let each other go for nothing."

"Chop off your hands to the big boss."

……

For a time, ten official knights pressed forward step by step. The middle-aged swordsman barely took a breath and took the three-section long sword to move again. With a stomp on his toes, his body fluttered like a dragon, and a sideways detour approached the pirate's side, his five fingers clasped tightly around his neck, and his other hand held the long sword and stabbed it into the neck. With a pop, the pirate's eyes lost their original brilliance and quickly fell to the ground weakly.

"Good!"

"Well killed!"

The crowd began to applaud, but no one came up to help. Because now there are nine pirates left, plus seven or eight full-fledged knights in the cabin, which is no small amount of power.

"Your strength is good, but it's a pity that if you kill my eldest brother, you won't have any way to live. By the way, I'm interested in the sword in your hand. A voice came from within the crowd, and a young man in a black and white gown with a round hat on his head and a white strip of cloth around the edge came out. A goatee on a smiling face.

He grabbed it in mid-air, as if by magic, and pulled out a black cane.

"Give it to me." A red beam of light shot out from the end of the cane, striking the three sections of the sword in the gray-robed swordsman's hand.

The swordsman stepped back on tiptoe, his right hand covered his numb left hand, and said in surprise: "You are a first-order top-level mage?" ”

As soon as his voice came out, all the merchants and passers-by present were also in an uproar. Approaching pedestrians immediately moved away from the smiling man in front of them.

It is very rare to have a mage in the border area, and a top mage of the first order is even rarer. Because a top mage like the First Order can get a high status in a big city, the more remote the place, the less powerful the mage. Moreover, most pirate groups only have a third-level apprentice or a large number of reserve knights. Official-level mages are still rare.

"Three masters!"

"Three masters!"

The formal knights held their swords and said respectfully.

Wow! The faces of the people around him changed, they didn't expect the leader of the other party to be mixed in the crowd, and they didn't expect that the top mage of the first order was only the third master, so wouldn't the second master and the big master be the mage above the second order? For a while, everyone was in a cold sweat and regretted catching up with this trip.

"Come, leave it to me." The man in the suit walked over step by step, playing with the black crutches in his palm.

The brown-robed man's body was cold, and he looked desperate. Originally, I thought that only a third-level apprentice could fight hard, but I didn't expect that there would be an extra top mage. He had already affirmed in his heart that this pirate group was ridiculously powerful, even second-order mages.

"I think I'm interested too." At some point, there was a black-robed man standing next to the three sections of the sword. He hooked his fingers, and the rusty sword flew into his hand automatically.

The man in the suit stiffened, and looked at the black-robed man who came in shock, as if he didn't expect that someone would walk to the deck without realizing it at all.

"Who are you? This matter has nothing to do with you, don't worry, we won't mess with you, you can follow the freighter to the harbor quietly. The man in the suit knew that the man in front of him was very strong, and he didn't want to mess with him.

Grant smiled, "What if I want to care?" Are you bothering my meditation thinking that you don't have to pay for something? ”

He just felt that there was something strange about this mage's body, and his mental fluctuations were very unstable, as if he had been forcibly promoted. And even this apprentice and many official knights have such traces on their bodies. Grant can be sure that they are forcibly increasing their strength with the help of something, otherwise with such a strong strength, they would be guests of honor in any country, so why be a little pirate here?

Grant is also interested in this three-section sword, a weapon that can induce magic fluctuations without the help of mana, and it can be played so perfectly, to be honest, it is quite valuable. (To be continued......)
