Chapter 166: Where to Go

The black thread flashed, and although she had been prepared, Xiao Yueluo was still startled by Loxani's hand. That's right, it's the hand, the long nails are like steel, and when they collide with the dagger, not only did they not break, but even sparks were directly visible to the naked eye.

"Holy! Is this still human!? ”

After a limit back leap to open the distance, Xiao Yueluo looked down at a few scratches on her body, and couldn't help but be covered with black lines, but fortunately she dodged quickly, if it was only a second slower, there was no doubt that she was definitely lying on the ground now, and she was still disemboweled. And after the fight just a few breaths, Xiao Yueluo can already be sure that the fingernails of the "person" in front of her are not just the kind of terrifying decorations, in terms of hardness alone, it will definitely not be much worse than fine iron, or it may not be harder, but it is just ......

Her eyes narrowed slightly, and when she thought of the words that the "person" in front of her had just come to her side and said, Xiao Yueluo had an urge to run to Ronald and beat up the goods. Obviously, that guy got the peach blossom debt, why did she have to deal with it in the end? Was it just because she saved him? Sure enough, he shouldn't have been soft-hearted and cheap.

Xiao Yueluo thought depressedly, and then glanced at the corner of her eye, and saw the stunned guards around her, and the anger that had just been suppressed in her heart instantly soared: "Hey, what are you still doing there?" Why don't you hurry up and help!? "She's the one who is protected, right!? What do you mean by standing on the sidelines!

At this point, even Xiao Yueluo admired the well-trained of these guards and knights, although she lost the command of the knight chief, but there was still a clear division of labor: the group of two and three guards rushed directly to the direction where the knight chief fell, while the rest of the people used a few breaths to build the battle formation, not to mention the combat strength, this posture alone looks quite bluffing.

After working together to move the knights to the back of the battle formation and hand it over to Xiao Yueluo, the three guards turned around and joined the battle array, and Loxani, who had been dragged by several mercenaries since just now, also jumped to the front of the battle formation at this time, and the six mercenaries who followed closely behind her fell right behind her, forming an encirclement with a group of guards and knights.

"Truly...... I can't help myself......" The low laughter was accompanied by an eerie chill, and the long blonde hair didn't know if it was originally like this, or if it was scattered for some special reason, and it was even more windless fluttering at the same time as the laughter sounded.

"Everyone be careful, this woman's speed is extremely fast, and the front is as defensive as possible!" Because of his previous experience, before the battle began, a male mercenary directly reminded him loudly, but it was precisely because of this sentence that Roxani, who was still paying attention to the guards, immediately turned his head to look at the man, and the cold gaze like a snake and scorpion, even if he didn't show his eyes, was enough to make people shudder.

"I ......"

"Jays!"

There was a coquettish cry not far from beside him, which made Jia Aisi, who had just fallen into a trance, wake up in an instant, and at the same time, a sense of crisis was directly wrapped around the tip of his heart.

"Bell!"

Unable to strike a blow and quickly retreating, Loxani was still standing in the same place at this time, if it weren't for the numbness from the trembling arm, Jays would have even felt that the experience of the cold hair standing on end was his imagination.

"Daphne, you take him aside to rest for a while, and then come over to help."

Daphne, the female mercenary who spoke to remind Jays before, is a gold-level mercenary like Jays. After hearing the reminder from her companion, she looked at Jays's pale cheeks, and also understood that Jays's current state was indeed not suitable for fighting anymore, otherwise she wouldn't be able to help, and might even cause others to be distracted and take care of him.

"I see, but Tracy, please be careful." After saying that, Daphne jumped to Jia Aisi's side, and then regardless of whether the latter wanted to withdraw from the battlefield, she directly reached out and grabbed it, and soon led someone to Xiao Yueluo's current position.

"Miss Edith!"

"You...... What's going on with him? Xiao Yueluo raised her eyebrows in surprise, especially when she saw Jia Aisi next to Daphne, the doubts in her heart deepened. It stands to reason that both of them should be fighting that Loxani, but depending on the current situation...... Aren't they about to lose?

All kinds of chaotic thoughts flashed in her mind, but when Xiao Yueluo's eyes fell on the two of them, it didn't look like they had experienced a fierce battle, but they denied those rootless thoughts one by one.

"I don't know what's going on, it's just like this after Jays had a fight with that woman." Speaking of which, even Daphne herself felt a little incredulous, after all, no matter what, it couldn't be regarded as the first time to fight, obviously nothing happened at the beginning, but now......

Looking at Xiao Yueluo, who was standing in front of Jays, helping to make various external inspections, a trace of complexity flashed on Daphne's face. To be honest, in fact, at the beginning, she was still a little unaccustomed to Xiao Yueluo, even if the person in front of her had the identity of a pharmacist, but the weak temperament at first glance made Daphne very dissatisfied.

Of course, Daphne is not targeting Xiao Yueluo, she just doesn't like it, obviously women can get everything with their own hands, but there are still many self-contained and weak, especially those eldest ladies of aristocratic families. In Daphne's mind, basically none of those eldest ladies can decide their own fate, except for accidental death, almost all of them are used as tools for marriage, and finally spend all their youth between their husbands and children. Of course, it may be better to meet a parent who dotes on them, or a husband who loves them deeply, but even this cannot change the fate of having no freedom to speak of.

It's just that sometimes the reality is not what you see, just like the person in front of you, the current Daphne will not think that Xiao Yueluo is a weak lady, not to mention anything else, just because Xiao Yueluo blocked Loxani's attack, it is enough to impress her, not to mention that Xiao Yueluo's main profession is still a pharmacist.

"Miss Edith, Jays, ......"

"There wasn't much of a problem physically, maybe I was just scared."

"Scared!? Ahem...... "Daphne, who was almost choked to death by her own saliva, showed a look of disbelief after hearing Xiao Yueluo's diagnosis at this time. You said that if you were poisoned or cursed by something, Daphne thought she might still be able to believe it, but ...... You're telling her now that you're scared like this!? Isn't it obvious that a gold-level mercenary who has been through a hundred battles is scared like this just by fighting the other party back and forth?

But no matter how Daphne thinks about it, Xiao Yueluo's result is still only this one, of course, you can also attribute it to the fact that she has not been in contact with this aspect for a long time, and her medical skills are not good, so she can't judge.

"Yes, although I don't know what the exact reason is, it is certain that the reason for this situation must have a lot to do with that Miss Chesterton."

"So the only way to get Jays back to normal is to defeat that woman first?" Daphne was surprised again, and her brow furrowed deeply, and to be honest, she didn't want to face that Roxani Chesterton again if it wasn't necessary, but as it stands......

"Knight's Chief...... How is he doing now? The person in front of him suddenly turned and crouched down, and Daphne also turned her attention to the knight's body, the huge wound left in the abdomen, even after being wrapped in gauze, she could still feel the horror from the stained blood.

"It's not going to be good." Xiao Yueluo shook her head while probing the knight's snort, and even her voice was full of solemnity, "First, the wound on his body is too big, and secondly, the conditions here, even if the plaster I use is effective, but if there is no better cultivation environment, then the chances of him surviving are ......."

Xiao Yueluo didn't continue, but the voice beyond the words couldn't be more obvious.

"It's a pity......" Daphne sighed slightly, although as a mercenary, it was not the first time she had seen death, but whenever such a thing happened in front of her, she often had a faint uneasiness haunting her, and even always felt that something similar would happen to her in the next second.

"Let's go."

"Hey, where are you going?" Seeing Xiao Yueluo get up and draw her dagger, Daphne was a little dazed for a while.

"Where to go? Of course, go where you need to go. Xiao Yueluo hooked her lips, and at the same time raised her feet and was about to walk towards the place where everyone was fighting, but Daphne, who reacted, naturally refused, and a dodge blocked in front of the girl.

"Do what?" Xiao Yueluo raised her eyebrows, a little puzzled.

"I'm sorry, Miss Edith, but please don't go any further."

"Why? Isn't it imperative to subdue that man now? ”

"That's true, but that's not Miss Edith's business." Daphne looked at Xiao Yueluo with a firm attitude and did not budge, "Since you have hired us, then please believe in our strength, and we will definitely guarantee your safety." ”

As a mercenary, Daphne obviously has her own beliefs and bottom line, that is: since she has accepted the task, she must complete the commission, even if she loses her life because of it.
