Chapter 114: The Convergence and Separation of the Three Parties (2-in-1)
The camel cart continued in the desert Gobi, passing by the desert castle where it had previously started, and heading south again.
Inside the camel carriage.
Rick was half-lying in the compartment, his palms clenched, and a fireball dissipated in his hands.
It was a fireball formed by magic, not a similar fireball that Rick used to condense with qi, but the essence did not match.
Rick's nose moved slightly, and he felt the moisture in front of him getting stronger and stronger, which brought more comfort than the dryness of the desert Gobi.
It seems to be getting closer to the sea to the south.
A few days ago, after Rick's simulated magic frightened Sonya, Sonia also generously taught Rick about magic.
The magic of this world is divided into fire magic, thunder magic, ice (water) magic, and evil (dark) magic, which belongs to the two major gods, the Cult of Dommer, and the holy light (light) magic of the Cult of Mira.
After being sacrificed as a sacrifice, Sonya's body is gradually transforming into a water witch, and she can no longer release the magic of the fire element.
She told Rick about her experience with fire magic, as well as her spell casting and related spells, and she also taught Rick about thunder magic and ice magic.
Rick's body benefited from the baptism of the red dragon's essence and blood, as well as the spiritual enhancement of Long Wei, and he quickly mastered the use of fire magic under Sonya's words and deeds. Even thunder magic can be used roughly.
As for the ice magic, it may be incompatible, although the system has been learned, but it can only summon a little water.
There was a sudden commotion in front of the cart, and Rick paused to think about it, and when he got up, he was about to lift the curtain on the car.
Here comes the experience again.
Rick muttered, only to find the robber lying in front of him, moaning in pain.
And the smiling Esther with a knight's gun.
"You're late, Rick!"
"What about these robbers?" Rick winked.
"These should be nearby villagers, I don't have much guilt in detecting them, the hateful Ricor Empire, it was their invasion of the war that caused civil strife in the Sophia Kingdom, and the villagers were miserable. After inquiring along the way, I heard that there was a rebel group in the Kingdom of Sophia, and this rebel army had gained the trust of the people, and it seemed that it was about to attack and enter Sophia Castle, and I really hoped to restore the peace of the past. ”
Rick nodded, "Let's go, I feel like we're almost there." ”
He stood beside Esther, looking ahead.
The coast of Sofia far away from Rick's three-man camel cart.
The two girls stood on a separate rocky reef some distance from the shore, and the two girls were back to back, constantly fending off the arrows fired by the pirates around them.
A group of pirates surrounded the reef they were on, either standing on the shore or with ships on their feet.
"These two Pegasus girls should also be the companions that Lord Guise said, if you arrest them, you will definitely be able to sell them for a good price, the little ones!"
As the pirate leader shouted, the surrounding pirates bent their bows and arrows even harder.
"Katyusa! Are you okay. One of the green-haired girls shot a stray arrow.
"I'm fine, sister! We can't go on like this, there are too many pirates on the other side, and we can't summon Pegasus to escape from the sky. Katyusa, the blue-haired girl, said anxiously.
"If we hold on, they will keep shooting arrows, and their physical strength will not be able to keep up, so we will take the opportunity to summon Pegasus at that time!" Paola kept wielding her spear.
On the other side of the coast, on the other side, a small group had crossed the strait and came around.
"Serika-sama, there's a battle ahead, and it looks like it's the remnants of the Daha Pirates."
Wearing an eye patch and a scar on his face, Seba whispered.
Behind the swordsman Seba came a red-haired girl, her fiery red hair and delicate light armor made her look particularly heroic.
Serika is the only princess of Sophia's kingdom who has any blood left.
When she was a child, there was a rebellion within the kingdom of Sophia, and the prime minister, Desai, betrayed the king and killed all the members of the Sophia royal family.
Serika secretly rescues with the help of Maison, the golden knight known as the first brave man in the kingdom of Sophia. Later, in order to avoid Desai's pursuit, she followed the high priest of the Mira religion to the monastery of Nova Island, the southeastern part of the Valencian continent, in the remote overseas, and learned and grew up with the teachings of the high priest Norma.
Not long ago, she felt the earth wither on Nova Island, and the holy water flowing from the statue of Mira in the monastery was becoming scarce. She noticed the abnormality of the god Mira and made up her mind to go to the temple of Mira to find out.
"We have to avoid unnecessary struggles and go over there." After saying that, Serika looked at it carefully, and suddenly said:
"Wait, those who are fighting with the Daha Pirates seem to be Pegasus knights from other countries, we can't die without help, everyone, let's get on."
Serika came all the way, and there were more and more team members around her, in addition to the two siblings Boi and May, who lived on Nova Island from the beginning, and the nun Jenny of the convent, and the elite mercenary swordsman Seba was also hired on the sea route.
After defeating the pirate leader Daha in the sea, the team also saved the brothers Baruber and Leo, as well as the mercenary Kamui beside the brothers.
In order to repay Serika's kindness and restore the kingdom of Sophia to overthrow Desai's tyranny, the three of them also joined Serika's team.
Serika's team joined forces to strike, and Serika, along with Magus Boi and May, began to cast their magic on the pirates on the ship, while Seba and the other warriors leaped out and killed the pirates who were still on the shore.
"Damn, who are you to dare to go against our Daha Pirates!"
The flames fell on the wooden ship at sea, and soon the ship was ablaze, and the pirates on board jumped into the sea to avoid the burning.
The pirates on the shore were constantly killed by the swordsman Seba, the hoplite Baluber, and Balube's younger brother archer Leo.
"Alright, the remaining pirates are no longer to worry about, and it is not appropriate to stay here for long. Let's go."
Serika's side quickly withdrew from the coast.
"Sister, who are those? Why help us. Katyuya asked her sister Paola.
"I don't know, but it seems that there are still good people on this continent, let's go to the port ahead first, and then ask about our sister's whereabouts."
The two Pegasus rose into the sky and moved faster in the direction of Serika's side.
Sofia Port is located in the east of Sofia Castle, close to the mainland of an outlet to the sea, and is also the largest trading port of the Kingdom of Sophia, with a large population and very prosperous.
Two camel carts followed the bustling flow of people into the port of Sofia.
Rick handed the doorman a few copper coins from the robbers on the road, and the three of them led the camel cart into the port city.
"I was kidnapped here from my home continent at the time, and then on the way to Guise Castle in the desert, I was secretly rescued by Sister Sonya." Esther looked at the busy situation in the harbor with a look of reminiscence.
Following the flow of people, the three of them came to an intersection.
"Esther!!"
"Sister!!"
"It's you!!"
Three exclamations, three squads, and three centaurs converged at the same time at a crossroads in the port of Sophia.
Esther jumped up and hugged her two sisters tightly.
"You came across the sea to find me, hard sister."
"What! You are in danger when you encounter pirates, and they are the ones who saved you! ”
Esther, the two Paolas, and Katyusa exchanged pleasantries, and then walked to Serika to thank them.
Serika looked around and said to the crowd:
"This is not the place to talk, come with me first."
The three Pegasus sisters, along with Rick and Sonya, follow behind Serika's team.
Seba and Baruber, who were clearly warriors in the group, walked at the end, cautiously watching for anyone following them, and watching the five in front of them warily.
The three teams followed the flow of people in the port city, turning left and right. Soon disappeared into the crowd.
In a small independent courtyard in the middle of the city. More than a dozen people scattered. Judging from the position of each person, it is obvious that they are divided into three waves, and Esther, one of the Pegasus Knight Maidens, stands between Sonia and her sister Katyusa, connecting them like a link.
"You are the princess of Sophia's kingdom! Thank you for saving our sisters. ”
Paola, the eldest of the three Pegasus sisters, stood up and bowed to Serika.
"No thanks, this is what I should do as a royal family of Sofia, and it will make me feel guilty if I let you encounter danger on Sofia's territory."
At this point, Selika's delicate face showed an expression of shame and helplessness.
The female demon master on the side, May, couldn't help but speak: "It's all to blame on those damned rebels, who not only killed Lord Serika's family, but also made the territory of the Sophia Kingdom full of wars. ”
"Needless to say, May. I heard that there is a rebel army on the western continent who is fighting against the rebellion of Desai, and I hope they can bring Sophia back to peace. I just want to go to the temple of Mira in the north to see what is going on with Mira now, and now that the earth is withered, I feel that something is wrong with Mira God. ”
Selica interrupted May, a worried look on her face.
"What you are worried about is that it has happened, the god Mira has been sealed by the highest priest of the Doma Sect, Joda, and the temple of Mira is also blocked by the Ricol Empire."
Rick, a quiet beautiful man on the side, said suddenly.
"What! How did you know this news? Can you tell me more about what happened? ”
Serica was taken aback and quickly approached Rick's side.
"We came from the Temple of the Dragons in the north, where we met Cologne, the dragon who was originally guarding the temple of Mira, and he told me what had happened."
"Lord Cologne, I've heard that it is indeed a sacred dragon guarding the god Mira."
Jenny, a nun of the Cult of Mira who had been standing beside Serika, whispered.
"Cologne was also injured by Joda, who possessed Doma's divine powers, and in order not to fall into the fate of demonization, he had already purified himself. Before he died, he said that the god Mira was sealed in the Excalibur Falcion. ”
"I... I'm a little messy right now, you guys give me a break. Hearing the whole bad news, Serica stumbled to the room behind her, and with a "bang", closed the door.
"Serica-sama!" "Serica-sama!" The team gathered around the door of the room where Serika was.
Rick and a few others who weren't part of Serika's team left the door.
Opala looked at Rick and Sonia with a grateful expression.
"Thank you for saving my sister."
"No thanks, your sister is very cute, and she cherishes the relationship between the three of you sisters."
Rick nodded after Sonia finished speaking.
"Sister, I want to go with Rick and Sister Sonia to the Temple of Mira in the north."
When the Pegasus sisters heard Esther tell about Sonya's abnormality, they nodded and took Esther's hand.
"As long as the three of us sisters are together, it's fine. And when I heard that Lord Serica was going to the Temple of Mira, we just reciprocated their love for saving us. ”
It didn't take long for Serika to come out of the room, and her delicate pretty face regained her composure, and she couldn't see the previous look of collapse and depression at all.
She first walked up to Rick, resting her right hand on the light armor on her chest, and leaned over to make a court salute.
"Anyway, thank you so much for the news."
"No thanks, we're also going to go to the Mira Temple, and there are places for you to ask for you on the way."
Hearing this, Selika's eyes lit up.
"As long as I can do it, I will do my best to swear by the Sophia royal family!"
With that, Selica turned back to her old squad.
She groaned for a moment, and then spoke:
"I'm going to continue my path to the Temple of Mira, and no matter what happens, I'm going to find a way to save Mira."
"Barubo, Leo, and Camui. Thank you so much for escorting me all the way to this place. But I would say that this is perhaps where we are separated. You have superb strength, and you can better realize your ideals and ambitions on the battlefield. During my time in the port, I also heard that the rebels in the kingdom are a righteous army. I want you to check if it's true, and if it's true, as it is rumored, I hope that you can help them to restore Sophia's kingdom, and it will be me, the last royal family of Sophia, asking you. ”
"Serica-sama! We"
As Leo was about to speak, Baruber patted his brother on the shoulder, "Yes, Serika-sama, may you be victorious!" We will follow your will and go to Sofia Castle. ”
"Seba, hiring you is definitely one of the shrewdest decisions I've made along the way, and I would like to ask you to escort Boi and Maye and Jenny back to Nova Island, where they were born on an island out of earth and do not have to endure this brutal war."
"Needless to say, Lord Serika, I am a nun who serves Mira, and I will go and do my best to save Mira."
Jenny's face was filled with a smile as pure as holy light.
"Yes, Serika-sama, we grew up with you, and we would like to be with you all the time." Wizard siblings Boi and May, from Nova Island, spoke together.
There was also a hint of a smile on Seba's stiff face, "When you hired me, you didn't say when, I think this time I will be hired for the longest time." ”
"Thank you!" Serika saluted the crowd again, and stood up with a solemn face, as if restoring the majesty of the royal family.
"We are divided into two teams, Barubo, you go to the west to find the rebels to overthrow the tyranny of Desai and resist the invasion of the Ricole Imperial Capital, while I take the rest to the Temple of Mira. May we all the best on this trip, and we will meet again! ”
At this point, the three teams gathered in the port of Sofia were once again divided into two teams and moved in the direction of their respective goals.
