Chapter 417: Into the Tiger's Den (Part 2)
'Wheel, wheel... 'Wheels'
On a mountain road not far from Isenburg, a half-new carriage was half-dead on the road.
The coachman was a delicate girl with a gloomy face, and every few minutes he would whip his whip so hard that the horses pulling the cart trembled with fear, and they had to use all their strength to go forward.
"Where's Na'er?" A lazy voice came from inside the carriage.
"Don't call me Na'er! My name is Ah... Card... Graceful! The girl suddenly burst out and yelled, causing other pedestrians on the mountain road to look sideways, and then her tone softened: "Sir, there are still more than twenty miles to Esenburg." ”
"Zhilu said, Na'er. Wake me up when I get to the ground, and I'll sleep a little longer. A voice came from inside the carriage, and Arcana's face was so gloomy that it almost dripped.
In a month, they only traveled more than a thousand kilometers to this Fort Esen, just to drink the damn moonshine broken wine...... That's not all, along the way, the guy in the carriage used all kinds of excuses to repeatedly refresh the bottom line of tolerance for her, a demonic sword master.
Serve him to eat? It's a must-do every day. Not only do it, but do it well. When sleeping in the hotel, warm the quilt for him first, which is also to be done. When walking on the road, if he suddenly wants to see the scenery, then he must take him, and if he wants to taste anything, he must also take him.
All of these things have a common excuse, in order to have a good memory of the lich's life in the future. And she is obviously very angry and dissatisfied, but as long as she sees the sadness in those black eyes, she will always compromise with her spirits.
But even so, after a month of patience, Arcana felt that her patience had reached the limit.
"Wheel~Wheel~" The rolling sound of the wheels silently told the wrath of the demon sword saint Arcana.
She was now silent, and an outburst was brewing in the silence. For example, beat the guy in the carriage so hard that he couldn't take care of himself!
Finally. The carriage drove to the outer city gate of Fort Esen, the capital of the Free Alliance.
The city is very large, with five layers of walls, from the inside to the outside, one layer higher than the other, and the other stronger than the other, which is in the history of thousands of years. The result of the continuous expansion of the city and the construction.
There was a bulletin board at the entrance to the city wall with many portraits, most of them of wanted bandits.
Arcana glanced at it, and her excellent eyesight allowed her to see every message on the bulletin board from a distance of tens of meters.
One of the most conspicuous portraits is Russell in the carriage, which is introduced below: 'Russell, the great magician, was pursued by the demon Sword Master and fled all over the continent. For example, inform the Wizards Federation of Russell's recent situation. After confirming that it is correct, you will be rewarded with 50 to 5,000 gold coins, depending on the importance of the message. ’
The proclamation is also stamped with the Five Rings logo of the Wizards' Federation, on which there is a magical symbol flowing that cannot be forged.
Just one piece of news is a bounty of up to 5,000 yuan, which is too tempting, and there is already a big circle on the bulletin board, and everyone is discussing it.
"Russell? Is that the great magician who unleashed the forbidden spell? ”
"It should be. How was he hunted down by the Demon Juggernaut? ”
"How dare a demon openly hunt down the Great Mage on the mainland?"
After listening to a few words, Arcana felt that the Esenburg in front of her was in danger.
The news turned out to be leaked. The entire Northern Continent knew about them, and the Wizards' Federation even offered a bounty for finding Russell. And this Isenburg in front of you is the headquarters of the Federation. There are so many powerful magicians in it, and there are several big magicians, and she broke in like this, so lucky!
Arcana remained silent on the surface, reached out and knocked on the carriage, and said in a low voice: "The Magician Federation is looking for you in the Manchu Realm. The situation is dangerous. I can't take you into town right now. Moonshine wine, take a slow? ”
Quietly in the carriage, just when Arcana thought that the other party was still sleeping, a lazy voice came from inside: "Slow down, there will be no chance." If I drink this moonshine in the future, I won't be able to taste it. ”
Lichs have no sense of taste.
Arcana was furious: "Don't push me. Big deal, I'll knock you out and take you all the way back. ”
"A magician, especially a great magician, has a strong spiritual power that guarantees that I can't be stunned. Unless, you smash my head. ”
Arkana was still sensible, no matter what Sun Ran said, she was about to turn the carriage and flash people, but the carriage window suddenly opened, revealing a middle-aged man's face inside, and said with a smile: "Na'er, let's go into the city, my lord, I want to drink moonshine wine." ”
As he spoke, Sun Ran also blinked his eyes, the meaning was very clear, no one could recognize him in the way he looked now.
Arcana gritted her teeth and whispered, "Don't look at me, I will never fall for your evil again!" This time, I won't compromise! ”
Sun Ran was very strange: "I don't understand, what are you afraid of?" When you transform into your human form, it's very natural, there are no magic fluctuations coming out, and no one can recognize your identity at all. And I, no one can see through my disguise unless I meet the Great Magician. We went in, took a sip of moonshine and left, there was no danger at all. ”
This Demon Sword Saint is very peculiar, her body can freely switch between the human race and the demon, before, Sun Ran thought it was the reason for the transformation potion, but after carefully observing it for so long, he finally discovered the truth.
This demonic sword master drank not a transformation potion at all, but a pain paralyzing potion. She was born with two bodies, a demon and a human, and was able to switch freely between them.
In other words, this Arcana should be an extremely rare half-blood high demon.
Arcana was still insisting on leaving, and said in a low voice: "I'm afraid of you, and when you get to the city, if you show your original appearance, won't I be killed by you?" ”
Sun Ran immediately shook his head: "This is obviously impossible. Even if I change back to my original form and be recognized, with your explosive power, you will definitely be able to kill me in the first place. I still want to live, and I won't do anything stupid. ”
Seeing that Arcana didn't speak, Sun Ran excited: "What, don't you have confidence in your sword skills?" ”
Arcana didn't speak, was silent for a long time, took a deep breath, whipped a whip, and said, "Drive!" ”
The carriage restarted and headed towards Ethan, and the demonic swordmaster compromised once more.
Sun Ran retracted the carriage and began to think about what to do next.
He could feel that this Arcana couldn't bear it anymore, and no matter how good the reason was, after using it for a month, it would become scum. And after this month of recuperation, his body has recovered a lot. Now he can barely use seventh-level magic. At this rate of recovery, it will only take him two months to fully recover.
However, two months, how should these two months be delayed? Sun Ran frowned and thought for a long time, but after all, there was still no way.
'Do you really want to find an opportunity to ask the Wizards' Federation for help?' Sun Ran took up this idea, and then immediately vetoed: "Simon is from the Federation." That guy is very thoughtful, and I have a vendetta against him. Asking for help from the federation is unpredictable. And if you don't get it right, you have to be beheaded by Arcana, the risk is too high to do this. ’
After entering the city, Arcana found a nearby tavern, stopped at the door, and prepared to help Sun Ran get out of the car to taste wine.
Sun Ran leaned against the car door and said, "Na'er, this kind of tavern is not up to grade, it will lower my identity." Even if there is moonshine in it, it is still inferior, and it must have been mixed with water and cannot be drunk. ”
"You ......" Arcana felt that if she could follow this guy through this trip, her ability to control her emotions would definitely change to the next level.
"Na'er, find a good inn and let me rest for a while. Don't look for it in the outer ring of Fort Esen. The further you go in Isenburg, the more prosperous it becomes, and at least the second floor of the inn, the kind of place where you can rest for a few gold coins. ”
"I didn't bring that much money!" Arcana went crazy, and the further inside, the closer she got to the headquarters of the Wizards' Federation, the more dangerous it became.
"Just steal some. Go ahead, the more precious the treasure, the more dangerous the place where it hides, and the more fulfilling it will be to find it and have it. Go ahead, don't hesitate, Na'er. Sun Ran said affectionately.
Arcana swore that it was her last compromise. With a blank face, she drove the carriage and drove slowly towards the inner city.
"If you dare to yin me, I swear, before you die, I will definitely break you into pieces!" She threatened in a vicious whisper.
"I'm the person who made the most commitment to ......"
"Don't say it, you've said it many times!"
As the carriage went deeper into Fort Esen, the guards patrolling the road were noticeably larger, better equipped, and stronger, and from the pace of their walking, the way they held their swords, Arcana could tell that these soldiers were veterans of battle.
The guards are nothing, and the worst thing is that every now and then, a magician will walk by on the road, three-star, four-star can be seen everywhere, and even, five-star magicians can see one or two.
As a six-star magician passed by the carriage, Arcana felt her heart skip a beat.
If she were recognized here, she would definitely have a lot of magic and no scum left.
"Russell, you're intent on killing me!" Arcana roared in a low voice, feeling an urge in her heart to beat Russell in the carriage a hundred times, she was fooled by him to such a ghost place, how could she be so stupid, it was really stupid.
"Don't panic, Na'er, the little girl will come out to see the world one day. When you get home later, you can say to someone, 'Ah, I've been to Isenburg, and that's a really big place.' 'It's fulfilling, isn't it?' ”
A five-star magician happened to pass by the carriage and glanced casually in this direction.
Arcana immediately forced a smile that was uglier than crying: "Master, you are really joking. ”
At last the carriage stopped beside a luxurious inn called the 'Gilded Rose', and immediately an attendant ran out and graciously took the reins of Arcana, and at the same time made an invitation: "Welcome guests from afar, the Gilded Rose is your home." ”
Only then did Sun Ran get out of the carriage, straighten his collar, cough lightly to remind everyone around him of his existence, and then raised his chin slightly, and smiled arrogantly: "This is like words." Let's go, Na'er, let's go inside. ”
Suddenly, he thought of a way to keep procrastinating! (To be continued......)
