Bite! Bite!

When the transparent filament touched the human-tall magic crystal, it made a metallic crashing sound, and then it penetrated into it like a drill bit.

The little man sneered at an item in the magic crystal, and pursed the corners of his lips disdainfully - the lich, the most troublesome part is the continuous resurrection, therefore, if you want to completely kill a lich, the other party's soul box must be found, otherwise, you will always face continuous trouble.

Definitely a nuisance for an enemy who doesn't really die.

And the new king undoubtedly has the potential to become such an enemy; However, it's a pity that I met an opponent like a small man who can be called an undead and an undead predator.

It's very easy, don't think it's even easier, the little man found the soul box hidden in the magic crystal of the other party, and then, controlling his tentacles, regardless of the other party's begging for mercy, pierced mercilessly; In the curse and insults of the new king, this 'treasure hunt' ended.

"You can hide the soul box in a magic crystal...... It's really whimsical! ”

Ava watched his friend's movements, guessed what was going on, and immediately couldn't help but sigh.

"Such a large magic crystal, ordinary people will never be willing to destroy it, therefore, it is definitely safe; But......," the little man shrugged, "it's a bit abrupt to put it here, a chair, a table, and such a huge magic crystal, no matter how you look at it, I won't be surprised that even if there is an oil painting hanging here...... Of course. What's more important is the sensitivity of my nose to these undead and undead! ”

Speaking of the most rear. The little man couldn't help but smile smugly. Ava, on the other hand, spread his hands and showed an expression that he couldn't do anything about you.

The teasing between friends, sometimes, in the eyes of outsiders, is always so naïve, but the feelings contained in it are unimaginable to ordinary people.

The big man standing on the beam looked at the two friends who came out. couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, and then when he looked at the little man again, he couldn't help but be stunned: "Datong, why do you look refreshed?" It's like soaking in a summer bathhouse for an afternoon and pouring a glass of cold beer! ”

"There is no cold beer, but there is no shortage of great tonics, and of course I want to be refreshed when I get out of the bad breath of being played with!"

After the little man smiled and recounted what happened in the dark passage, the big man said happily: "Ye please." Got it? ”

The little man shrugged his shoulders and tossed the box up and down in his hand.

"Great!"

The big man cheered.

"Except for this. I also found something valuable...... However, we need to hurry to the agreed location now! ”

As he spoke, the little man jumped off the beam and walked towards the back of the throne in the hall—if the only thing they had gained before was to find a way out; So that there is no need to break the support above the head to rush out, so that the treasure here has a chance to be carried.

The big man and Ava followed behind the little man without any hesitation, and the three of them jumped into the secret passage that they had already explored—this was not a teleportation array similar to the 'God's Gate' as a way to leave, it was a very primitive secret passage, but the length of the excavation was extremely amazing, almost nearly ten kilometers or so.

At the end of the passage is the Gobi Desert – judging from the almost dust-dried surface, Ava can conclude that it was once a medium-sized oasis.

A special mark was made here, and the trio sped towards the Fourth Oasis to the west, where they and Ye Qi had agreed to meet.

As for what to choose for the Lang there?

Is there anything more visible in the desert than an oasis?

The speed of the three of them was very fast, from departure to arrival, it only took an hour, and when the three of them were already standing on the land of the oasis, there was still a difference of about ten minutes from the time agreed by Ye Qi; The three of them were happy to be able to arrive as promised, and the big man took out two water bags from his bag and threw them to the little man and Ava, and the three of them sat on the grass in the oasis, drinking water and waiting for Ye Qi's return.

With the passage of time, when the appointed time has come, but Ye Qi has not yet appeared, the little man can't help frowning, and the big man and Ava also put down the water bag and look around - even if there is a perfect plan, there will be accidents, which is inevitable and everyone agrees.

It's just that no one wants such an accident to happen, especially when their friends are involved.

While the three of them were anxiously waiting, a black spot appeared in the sky.

"It's Groening!"

The big man shouted loudly, and the little man and Ava also saw Groening, who let out a special rhythmic whistle from his mouth, guiding Groening on the way.

However, when Groening flew a little closer, the three of them sank in their hearts, they only saw Groening himself, and Ye Qi, who was supposed to be sitting on horseback, disappeared!

Almost without waiting for Groning to land, the three of them rose to their feet, met Groning at great speed, and then searched for it in the saddle - this is the place where there was a change in the previous agreement, and Ye Qi would leave a message.

As for the reins?

Ye Qi would never restrain Groning with such a thing, even if it was a saddle, it was only because of the consideration of comfort and discussion with Groening, and with the latter's consent, that it was placed on the horse's back.

Koska ...... Dry forest ......"

The little man whispered a secret language that only the four of them could understand; When the big man on the side heard the name 'Koska', he felt a little familiar, but when he thought about it carefully, he didn't have any impression, and Ava was the same.

"Does the name Koska sound familiar?"

When it landed on the meadow of the Fourth Oasis, the little man asked suddenly, and the big man nodded with Ava. Especially the big guys. He replied bluntly, "I think I've heard of this name somewhere." But now I can't remember where I heard such a name! ”

"The End of the Sacred Age......

"The last pope!"

The little man gave a reminder, and before the little man could finish speaking, the big man and Ava reacted.

"Isn't he supposed to be dead? How did it end up here! The big man's voice was full of surprise, but the little man was very flat: "What is this strange, fake death is not a difficult thing for the Pope, on the contrary, according to the situation at that time. Or a relief! ”

"Relief?"

The big man was a little puzzled.

"The situation at that time, for the Holy See, was already in great crisis, and there was no possibility of victory at all; And on this basis, they chose to abandon Lorante's approach and entered the bridge on the other side instead! The little man analyzed and expressed his opinion, "Or, they had the intention of relying on the bridge on the other side to make a comeback, but." After that, a series of changes took the bridge on the other side by surprise—so. His Majesty the Pope, naturally, continued to hide until the appearance of the leaf! ”

"He gave up his original hiding for the sake of Ye?"

The big man scratched his head in some confusion - although the honest big man doesn't like to use his brain, but the general situation is still understood; Just like the Pope Koska in front of him, since he has been hidden for more than 250 years, why would he suddenly appear?

Although his friend's situation was a bit peculiar, the big man did not think that it was worth the Pope's majesty to give up the hidden plot for more than two hundred and fifty years.

"Obviously, Ye did something he couldn't tolerate, forcing him to be angry—but it's not very likely...... the little man said thoughtfully, "It should be the rumors of the 'Extreme Blade' walking that have played a role; after all, the key to the 'Immortal Path', he may not be tempted!" ”

This time, the little man's guess was a little wrong.

As for the key to the 'path to immortality', the Koska Pope was tempted, but he would not give up his hiding and planning because of this.

As for the loss of the Quartet's potential?

Although there are several legendary powerhouses in the transcendent realm, and one has a close relationship with him, these will not lead him to take the initiative to stand up.

Rather, something happened within the Holy See that forced him to stand up.

For such a thing, it is naturally impossible for a small man who is a witcher to guess, and the same is true for Ye Qi.

"What do we do now?"

The big man asked, and Ava's gaze turned to the smaller one.

"Go back to Chaoswig Town and wait for Ye's news!"

The little man said very simply, and then, after squinting and thinking for a moment, he said: "The news that His Majesty the Pope has appeared, and the headquarters should be informed of the ......."

"Is this needed?"

The big man looked at his friend with some puzzlement, and the little man said: "You must know that we are definitely the lonely party now, and without the support of the rear, we are really passive!" ”

Hearing the little man's explanation, the big man was still a little puzzled, and the little man had to say very bluntly: "We need to let the headquarters take action, attract the attention of the Holy See, and use the Holy See to influence the actions of the Pope in the bridge on the other side, so as to create more opportunities for Ye!" ”

"I see!"

The big man was stunned for a while.

"Let's go, then!"

After the little man finished speaking, he immediately rushed in the direction of Ranzhi Town, and the big man, Ava and Groning, the two of them followed closely behind - since it had been decided to notify the headquarters, the speed of going to Ranzhi Town naturally needed to be faster; After all, only there will be a communication array at a distance.

……

Shak, the central castle, the land of the Six Towers.

In the tower of the moonlit night, Hessel, the old tower master, did not bow his head in the official document in a rare leisurely manner, but stood in front of the window of his study with a cup of flower tea with honey, looking through the glass and watching the lively scene below - a new batch of apprentice apostles, long before the harvest festival, came to the headquarters of Shak's witchers.

And after a period of training, these young people have undoubtedly adapted to life here, especially since there are a few good seedlings inside, which makes this acting president of the witcher's headquarters. I felt a hint of relief; Of course. Such a relief also has his slightly leisurely life at the moment.

After more than two years of exercise. Ted, who had been following him, the big burly man, was finally able to resist one side, and Nofa, who was also under the orders of Pednange at this moment, began to quickly accept the daily affairs of the headquarters, and with the help of these two young people, he was finally freed from the endless review of official documents.

Arguably. For more than two years and three years, this period of time was the most comfortable time Hessel lived, drinking a little tea every day, reading through the key things, and most of the time, he could go to Shak's city to hang out, and completely return to the life that was suitable for him as an old man, not to mention how comfortable it was.

Even his old friend was envious.

Anytime there is a need to compare, when he is busy. The old friend who looked at him was naturally extremely leisurely. But when he was completely leisurely, he went to see his old friend, who was naturally extremely busy - the Tower of Relic, although it did not need to deal with any official documents, but it needed to make and forge quite a number of magical items to provide services for the demon hunters, especially the Apostle Trench Coat, which is almost a consumable, low-magic item, the amount of demand will make people feel like a crash.

In this regard, Hessel was very comfortable with his own flower tea to inspect it, and then, nodding with satisfaction, in the pleading voice of his friend, Shi Shiran walked back to his moonlit night tower.

As for the pleading of friends?

He had just escaped from the sea of hectic suffering, and he would not sink himself into it again; If you want to help, you have to wait until he has rested enough.

With a soft sigh of comfort, Hessel turned and walked to his desk—don't get me wrong, there wasn't the slightest document there, just a jar of honey and a pot of hot tea, and some spices; He needs to add more honey to his flower tea to make it more sweet and tasty.

Step, step, step......

But just as Hessel picked up the wooden spoon with which he scooped the honey, the heavy, but powerful footsteps rang out.

"Ted, come in!"

Hessel was able to come just by listening to the footsteps, so without the slightest pause, he said directly; At the same time, Hessel also put down his teacup, he knew that Ted would not bother him with ordinary things now, and if it did, it would be a big thing.

Looking at his teacup, Hessel couldn't help but sigh, lamenting that his leisurely days had ended so quickly; However, as the tower owner of the Tower of the Moonlit Night and the acting president of the Demon Hunter Headquarters, Hessel naturally understood what he was going to do, he sat up straight in his chair, looked at Ted who walked in, and asked, "Ted, what happened?" ”

"Dry Forest District, there's an urgent message from Ranzhi Town!"

Ted handed the document to Hessel with both hands, and after the old man took the document, he continued: "Ye Qi and his party went to the bridge on the other side, where they met the dead Koska......"

"Koska?!"

Hessel was stunned for a moment, and then, frowning, immediately opened the file in his hand; And as he read, his brows became tighter and tighter, and his face became even more solemn when he got to the back.

"Go and invite the four Tower Masters of Blank, Jemond, Pednange and Mordred!"

Hessel commanded directly.

"Yes, sir!"

Ted bowed, and then walked briskly out of Hessel's study.

After Ted left, the old man Hessel couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Although I knew that something big would happen, I didn't expect it to be such a big thing...... Ye Qi, you are really like that teacher of yours, you are all like this, you can cause trouble! ”

"Where the hell did this bastard John and Ward go? It is still nowhere to be seen, and Kuchi has also run away without a trace...... What an irresponsible bunch! ”

Hessel, who was sighing, couldn't help muttering at the mention of Ye Qi's teacher; And obviously, such muttering naturally made the old man feel dissatisfied, especially when he thought of the Sword Saint with absolute fame, who was always so lazy and unmotivated, hiding somewhere to cheat and cheat or simply drunk so much that he didn't know what day of his life was today, this old man who had always had a good temper wanted to catch the other party in front of him and beat him hard.

Of course, the friend of the other party, the old Ward who only knows how to cheat money on the witcher's headquarters.

These two guys are completely embarrassed!

But......

Alas!

The old man, who obviously thought of something, suddenly sighed, and his expression of gritting his teeth became helpless, and the whole person also fell into a kind of thoughts and memories.

It wasn't until Pednang, the tower of wisdom, pushed the door in that Hessel came back to his senses.

"Koska, aren't you dead?"

As soon as he entered Hessel's study, Pednange asked, with a hint of coldness in his tone.

But Hessel smiled bitterly and handed over the document that had just come from the dry forest area, and replied helplessly: "If the information is not wrong, it should not be dead!" ”

The silent Pednange directly took the document and flipped through it carefully, and after a while, he couldn't help but let out a cold snort.

"Hmph, it's really a scourge for a thousand years!"

"Pedenanger, do not get excited, do not forget your oaths and ...... The contract! Hessel reminded again and again, "You can't make a move on the people of the Holy See, and you can't leave Shak!" ”
