Chapter 304: Shock and Awe (I)
The Huangtu Empire is located in the east of the Sui'an Continent, with a dry and pleasant climate, although it is not as fostered as the Yunchuang Empire, but it is one of the best in the geographical environment of the five countries. If it weren't for the Demon Clan's suppression, Huangtu wouldn't have had such an easy time.
What kind of land raises what kind of people, the people of Huangtu are very bold and righteous. Andrew is a typical emperor and is outspoken. After chatting for a while on the way to the gathering with Mu Shi, he bluntly said that he was disgusted with Mu Shi joining at first, and even planned to let Mu Shi retreat.
Mu Shi was not angry, he hadn't had this feeling of life in his previous life for a long time, he held a folding fan in his hand and slapped his palm unconsciously and smiled, "Then it seems that I am still very satisfied with Uncle De." ”
Andrew nodded, his steps were vigorous, and he didn't mean to wait for Mu Shi at all, which was also his deliberate test of Mu Shi, but Mu Shi was completely able to keep up with his speed, and even looked relaxed, which surprised him very much, "When I saw that you were a light attribute magician, I agreed with you to join." ”
"How effective the light attribute magician is against the upper demon clan and the demonic beasts, no country knows better than the Huangtu people."
Mu Shi nodded, and the words changed, "Uncle De, how many people are there in your expedition team." ”
"Seven, plus you and you're eight." Uncle De simply said the number.
"So little?" This number surprised Mu Shi a little, the Death Mountain Range was so dangerous, and it was hired by the City Lord's Mansion, Mu Shi thought it was a large team.
"The noble essence is not too expensive, and the entry of the huge momentum will attract the attention of powerful demonic beasts and demons, but the gains outweigh the losses." Andrew became serious when he got down to business, and with that hideous scar, his aura was very powerful.
"Makes sense, too." Mu Shi nodded.
Andrew suddenly stopped and said in a deep voice, "It's here." He was so tall that he couldn't see anything clearly when he walked behind him, so he honestly stopped and looked at a heavy building with the smell of blood, and a black flag painted with staggered swords on the roof flew fiercely in the air, full of murderous aura.
There are people coming and going outside the door, all of them are capable and sturdy young adults, different from the people who Mu Shi has added before, these people are experienced in a hundred battles at a glance.
"This is ......" Mu Shi was a little surprised.
"This is the Mercenary Guild." Andrew said lightly, then turned around and glared at Mu Shi condescendingly, "Boy, although I agree with you to join, the expedition team is a whole. They will definitely embarrass you. If you want to win their approval, you have to show your strength. ”
It's just talking with your fists.
Mu Shi smiled, this familiar feeling is really nostalgic. "Thank you Uncle De for mentioning it, I won't let you down."
"Well, let's go inside." Uncle De nodded, turned around and strode into the mercenary union. As soon as you enter, you can see that Andrew's reputation is very high, and all the mercenaries who come and go stop to say hello, and Andrew just nods in response. At the same time, these people's eyes also glanced curiously at Mu Shi, who was thin and tender behind Andrew, and whispered to guess why they brought a little boy with an incompatible painting style.
Mercenaries are always a pure place, pure interests, pure strength.
Mu Shi smiled back at the gaze that looked at him, a beautiful appearance is popular everywhere, and the mercenary union is no exception. These mercenaries were friendly when they saw Mu, and they nodded in return.
Andrew didn't take Mu Shi into the hall, but turned into a small door on the right, which was planted with vegetation unique to the east of the continent. As soon as you enter, the noisy sound disappears, and it seems that these plants have a sound-absorbing function.
Passing through a sheep's intestine path, it is suddenly enlightened. Andrew raised his hand and patted it, "Guys, come and welcome your new companions!" He said and let go of his body.
Mu Shi's vision suddenly widened, and at the end of the path was a courtyard, in which six young people were sitting or leaning, and the moment Mu Shi looked at them, the eyes of the six people also fell on Mu Shi.
Mu Shi walked in generously, she knew that the mercenary's personality was the most hateful of red tape, and she straightened her waist and stood tall, with a layer of indifferent and alienated smile, "Shi Bei, a magician with dual attributes of light and fire, please advise." ”
Hearing the words of the dual-attribute magician of light and fire, the expressions of the six people changed significantly, and after looking at each other, one of the steady black-haired young men in magic robes stood up, "You are a dual-line magician?" ”
Mu Shi nodded, raised his hand and pointed at Andrew, who had been relegated to the side and was ready to watch a good show, "Uncle De is your leader, I don't believe my words, you finally believe his words, right?" ”
Andrew said angrily, "Lao Tzu is a man who has a heaven outside the world, so don't be proud." ”
"What about dual-attribute magicians, not being able to fight and surviving is just a bells and whistles." The only woman among the six snorted lightly, and her mocking gaze fell on Mu Shi indifferently, "I've seen too many noble magicians like you, and as soon as you are beaten, you cry and cry for the protection of the martial artist." I don't think you're very old, so don't be ashamed. ”
Mu Shi's smile slowly disappeared, "This big sister, if I beat you to the ground, can you take back this sentence and apologize to me?" "Mu Shi is now a first-order magic spirit, so he can naturally see that this young woman who looks to be in her twenties and full of wild charm is very talented, and she is already a high-level martial sect.
However, Mu Shizai and the martial artists of the same level dare to fight, not to mention this kind of one level behind him.
"What did you say!" The female martial artist jumped up suddenly, a blush appeared on her face, "Boy, you have such a big breath!" Do you know that I am a martial artist! Even if it's a Fa Sect a few levels higher than me, you won't be able to get any bargain from fighting me! ”
"Don't you want to beat me?" Mu Shi unfolded the white-gold folding fan and fanned it elegantly, covering the lower half of his face, and glanced at the six people with a pair of eyes as bright as stars, and finally froze on the female martial artist, "A team is most afraid of internal cracks, I don't want to have conflicts after entering the Death Mountain Range." ”
"You! ......”
"Hehe, I didn't expect you to be quite a team player." Andrew smiled heartily, breaking the deadlocked atmosphere between Mu Shi and the female martial artist, leaning against the pavilion and saying, "Erin, since Xiaobei has taken the initiative to challenge you, isn't it exactly what you want?" Don't think I don't know what you're thinking?! ”
"Humph! Good! The female martial artist who was called Erin snorted coldly, strode into the courtyard, pulled out the long sword hanging on Qianqian's thin waist and slammed it into the ground, "Don't say that I bullied you small, I don't use weapons to fight you." ”
Mu Shi glanced at the spirit sword that exuded the fire element, and said in his heart, no wonder his temper was so hot, it turned out to be a fire martial artist. Then he closed the folding fan and slapped his palm and chuckled, "Sister Erin, you still use weapons, if the martial artist loses his weapon, his strength will be greatly reduced." ”
"Wait until you can force me to use a weapon!" Erin sneered, and red light sprang out from her body to cover her body, and the blazing flames distorted the air around her.
"Okay." Mu Shi shook his head helplessly, his spiritual power spread out rapidly, and the fire element between heaven and earth fluctuated, quickly condensing towards Mu Shi, and even turned into a body defense similar to the elemental armor of a martial artist. It's just that the difference between the two is that Erin's elemental defense is backed by the elemental power in her body, and her consumption is huge.
And Mu Shi's elemental defense is to summon the elements between heaven and earth to drum it out. For Mu Shi, all that is consumed is mental power.
Erin felt the fluctuations on Mu Shi's body, and the disdain on her original face gradually disappeared, although she was hot-tempered, it didn't mean that she was really reckless, otherwise she wouldn't be here.
"Erin, Seventh-Order Martial Sect." She reported her strength in a deep voice, which was the etiquette when the two sides were fighting.
Mu Shi hesitated, but he still didn't plan to report his true strength, after all, it was a little too scary, "Shibei, Ninth Order Law Sect." ”
"Wait! What did you say?! Erin's eyes widened, "Boy, you're not going to lie to scare me, are you?!" "Even though the Dharma Spirit is not the same concept as the Ninth Order Dharma Sect at all, it is still a little scary, and the other five people also have ghost expressions.
Mu Shi spread his hands innocently, "Is there any water, don't you know if you do it with me?" ”
"Arrogance." Erin gritted her teeth and threw out a stick of incense and threw it to her companion, "Time me!" I can't beat him for a stick of incense, even if I lose! ”
"Alas, Erin, you are impulsive again, can people be two orders higher than you?" It was the young magician who caught the incense, and shook his head helplessly.
"Less!" Erin blocked a sentence fiercely, and then turned her head to look at Mu Shi, "Boy, can you start?" ”
Mu Shi frowned, it was said that this woman's personality was much more popular than that of her previous life, she didn't like it very much, and nodded lightly, "It's okay." ”
As soon as Mu Shi's voice fell, he rushed over with a swish, and the speed was so fast that it was comparable to a wind attribute martial artist of the same level. Obviously, she was very angry with Mu Shi and wanted to give Mu Shi a little color.
If it were another magician, she might really be forced to show her flaws by Erin's unprepared attack, but for Mu Shi, who is the best at wind element, she can't look down on this speed.
The toes are lightly slick sideways, even if they don't need the blessing of the wind element, the speed of Mu Shi, who has been moistened and transformed by the wind element for many years, is not comparable to ordinary people. Erin only felt a flower in front of her, and it was clear that her fist was about to hit this kid's face, but she miraculously avoided it.
Mu Shi avoided Erin's first attack, twisted his waist to stabilize his body, and smiled without blushing and panting, "It's dangerous." ”
"Coincidence, it must be a coincidence!" Erin muttered under her breath, stomping her foot and pounced again with the help of the momentum.
