After agreeing to split up with Thoyle, Xue Huan groped his way to Lucy's tent. After making sure that no one was following him, he lifted his tent and walked in.

Seeing that Lu Xi and the maid were still asleep, Xue Huan lowered his head and whispered, "Miss Lu Xi..."

"Hmm..." Luxi, who was awakened, sat up and rubbed her eyes, and when she saw Xue Huan on the side, she subconsciously wanted to scream, but fortunately Xue Huan covered it with her hand in time.

Feeling the heat coming from the palm of his hand, Xue Huan couldn't help but blush a little, but now was not the time to think about this. He stared into Lucy's eyes and said softly, "Miss Lucy, now we need to get out of here now, because I've got word that that guy in Ilbert wants to get rid of us here." ”

As soon as Xue Huan said this, Lu Xi's eyes widened in shock. Xue Huan continued, "Miss Luxi, I was entrusted by your father to protect you as you go to Lordaeron. If you still believe me, please nod. ”

With a wink of her eyes, Lucy nodded incredulously. After receiving Lu Xi's affirmative answer, Xue Huan slowly let go of his hand.

Call......

The liberated Luxi immediately took a few breaths of fresh air, and then she frowned slightly, and asked Xue Huan suspiciously, "Your Excellency Magician, what did you mean by what you just said?"

"It's too late to explain. Xue Huan urged: "Just now I heard that General Ilbet was plotting with people to kill us, and now that they are outnumbered, it will be too late if they don't run." Now, in order to persuade Luxi, Xue Huan had to tell a little lie.

"For... Why. Lu Xi stared at Xue Huan suspiciously, in her impression that she had never complained against others, not to mention that the other party was General Lordaeron, how could she want to murder herself for no reason? Although Xue Huan left a very good impression on her along the way, and her father also entrusted himself to him, but at this time, in the case of insufficient evidence, Lu Xi obviously had no way to believe him.

What can I do now?

At this time, Xue Huan was helpless, after all, this was just their speculation, and they couldn't come up with substantial evidence. Just as Xue Huan was about to further convince Lu Xi, he saw a few fires lit up outside the tent, and several figures appeared outside the tent at the same time.

"Miss Lucy, are you there, sorry to disturb your rest, but Lord Ilbert has asked me to summon you and say that I have something important to discuss. Pebro's voice came from outside the tent.

Damn! Could this guy be a traitor? Xue Huan thought through gritted teeth. Fortunately, I didn't trust him too much along the way.

"Okay, wait a minute. Lucy replied loudly outside the tent. After speaking, she hesitated, glanced at Xue Huan, and motioned for him to quickly find a place to hide. Seeing this, Xue Huan immediately hid behind the coffee table on the side, spying on the progress of the situation.

At the same time, Lucy's maid also woke up from her sleep, and when she saw that an outsider was coming, the maid quickly got up from the bed and dressed neatly. Seeing that everything was ready, Lucy cleared her throat and said outside the tent, "Please come in." As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Pebro in armor and with four Lordaeron soldiers walking in.

Walking into the tent, Pebro looked around, then arched his hand at Lucy and said, "Miss Lucy, Lord Ilbet, please come and discuss something important. ”

"Oh, what's the important thing you have to discuss in the evening?" Lucy frowned and said to Pebro, "Besides, today is the first time you've met, so soon Mr. Mercenary has changed his name to 'Lord'?"

Forehead...

Realizing that he had made a mistake, Pebro smiled and continued unconcernedly, "This is just a name for General Ilbert, please Miss Lucy not to pay too much attention to it." So for now, please. Peblo bent down slightly and stretched out his right hand and made a "please" gesture.

Looking at Pebro's posture, it's not okay if you don't go. Thinking of what Xue Huan had just said to herself, Lu Xi had already understood. But why did the general Ilbert want to murder him?

"Good!" With that, Lucy straightened her hair and got up to head to Ilbert with Pebro.

Lucy had just reached the tent gate when she saw Pebro behind her quietly raise the huge double-edged greatsword in her hand. Just as he was about to slash at Lucy's back, he heard a "bang", and a ball of flame flew out of Pebro's side, dragging the green tail flame, and hit his right hand with great precision.

"Shhh

Feeling the burning sensation coming from his right hand, Pebro threw the giant sword in his hand to the ground. Then he swept around with a cold gaze and shouted, "Who is it?" At the same time, the four Lordaeron soldiers were also on alert, and they all drew their swords and stood behind Pebro.

Lucy turned around when she heard the commotion, and saw Pebro staring at the coffee table with an angry face. She looked down at the greatsword that had been discarded to the ground by Pebro, and it was not clear what had happened. But obviously, she didn't plan to make a noise, so she had to frown and look in the direction where Xue Huan was worried.

"Come out quickly!"

With another roar, Pebro picked up the greatsword on the ground, clenched his hands tightly, and stared at the coffee table.

And Xue Huan behind the coffee table seemed to have a headache. Originally, he planned to wait for Pebro to leave before trying to find a way to rescue Lucy, but who knew that this damn guy had already killed Lucy. As a last resort, Xue Huan could only stop him. But in this way, Lucy is temporarily safe, but she is in a dangerous situation. After all, there are five people on the other side, and all of them are above their own strength, how can this be good?

Just when Xue Huan was at a loss and was about to fight to the death, he heard another commotion outside the tent. Before Pebro and the others could react, with a "boom", more than a dozen fist-sized hailstones appeared in the sky and smashed down on them. Suddenly, the defenseless Pebro and several Lordaeron soldiers were smashed into a daze. And Xue Huan also took advantage of the chaos, and a lunge came out from behind the coffee table, took Luxi's hand and prepared to run away.

But he didn't go far when he saw Ilbert riding a tall horse to meet him, and behind him, a dozen elite Lordaeron soldiers......

Looking at the vast number of enemies in front of him, Xue Huan's forehead couldn't help but break out a few drops of cold sweat, it seemed that this vicious battle was inevitable. Just as Xue Huan mobilized his whole body's mental strength and was about to make the first move, he only heard a familiar voice from behind.

"Hey, Brother Xue Huan!"

As soon as he turned around, he saw Patrick in the distance, carrying his great axes, and rushing towards him. However, the dwarven warrior's panting appearance and the snail's speed seemed very incongruous. Behind him, Angel, Matthew, and Aris followed.

It's a little easier now, but even if you and others work together, I'm afraid this battle will be difficult to win. Xue Huan's brows were twisted together, and he muttered, "This is my first battle in this other world, I hope it won't be the last battle." ”

"Whew!"

After a lot of effort, a group of people finally ran in front of Xue Huan. Patrick, who was the leader, panted and said, "Fortunately, that annoying little magician guy informed us in advance, otherwise my life would have been buried here in vain." And Angel and the others who followed behind Patrick also felt the same way, who would have thought that Ilbet and the others, who were still friendly in the morning, would fight against each other in the evening.

"What about the traitor?" Patrick saw Pebro in disarray. At this time, because he was not wearing a helmet, his head was broken by the hailstone. Seeing Patrick staring at him menacingly, he immediately covered his head and ran towards Ilbet's camp in a gloomy manner.

At this time, Ilbet was still wearing bright silver armor, and in his hand was an extremely sharp golden royal sword that shone with cold light. He pointed at Xue Huan and the group with the tip of his sword, and said contemptuously: "It's all here, so I won't have to bother to find it." If you'd be smart enough to hand over that blonde woman to me, maybe I'd consider leaving you a whole corpse. ”

"Phew!" Before Xue Huan could speak, he saw Patrick spit at Ilbet, and said angrily: "You dog bastard, you still want to plot against us and want us to surrender? ”

Matthew and Alist, on the side, secretly took off the shield behind them and raised them flat in front of them. Even Angel took out her peachwood staff from behind her, ready to fight at any time.

"Then it looks like you're trying to resist. Ilbert sneered, and at the same time, he raised his long sword in his right hand and said to Xue Huan and the others: "Unfortunately, you have chosen the most stupid path, and now I will sentence you to death on behalf of the Lordaeron Empire." With that, Ilbet swung his sword forward, ready to direct the charge of his soldiers......

"Wait!"

Hearing this, everyone was startled, and subconsciously followed the source of the sound. I saw a hint of anger on Lucy's beautiful face. The aristocratic maiden of Stratholme shouted at Ilbet, "May I ask the General, what crime has Lucy committed?"

"You didn't commit any crimes!" Ilbert shook his head and said to Lucy, "But from the beginning, your marriage was a conspiracy, and I wasn't the one who wanted your life. After speaking, Ilbet waved his right hand vigorously, and the dozen or so Lordaeron soldiers behind him raised their long swords and rushed towards Xue Huan and the others.

"Take Miss Lucy to the side. Seeing that the other party was menacing, Xue Huan said anxiously to Luxi's maid. Hearing Xue Huan's words, the maid bowed her head and immediately pulled Luxi to run to the woods behind her to hide.

Seeing the enemy rushing towards his side, Xue Huan didn't even think about it, as soon as he stretched out his right hand, several Chaos Arrows shot out, and in an instant, a Lordaeron soldier was engulfed by the green flames.

"I... I actually killed someone..."Looking at the Lordaeron soldiers struggling in the flames, Xue Huan's expression was a little dazed. Although he kept shaking his head, trying to dispel the uneasiness, he was clearly unable to do so.

Boom!

The sound of swords and shields clashing resounded through the Sierra de Celestiole, and it also brought Xue Huan to reality.

"What are you doing, little ghost?" Patrick couldn't help but shout when he saw Xue Huan stunned in place. Short and valiant, Patrick double-wielded his giant axe and slashed through the enemy army like a god of war. He slammed his axe into the shield of a nearby Lordaeron soldier, who flew half a foot away with his shield.

Matthew and Alex were clearly not as heroic as Patrick, they were surrounded in the center by several Lordaeron soldiers, relying on mutual assistance and hard shields in their hands to withstand the enemy's attack.

Patrick, who was in the middle of the enemy line, jumped high in a lunge, raised his axe above his head, and slashed at the head of a Lordaeron soldier in front of him. There was another bang, and the Lordaeron soldier's helmet was torn apart, and he collapsed on the ground and jerked a few times before losing his life.

Angel, as a magician, was at the end of the team, and she raised the staff in her hand, chanting an unknown incantation in her mouth, and in a few moments, a huge ball of fire condensed on the wand. She raised an angry eyebrow and waved her wand vigorously. The huge ball of fire exploded among the Lordaeron soldiers, instantly reducing several soldiers to ashes.

"Kill the mage first!"

I don't know who in Lordaeron's camp roared, and in an instant, as if they had found their target, these soldiers abandoned the enemy in front of them one after another and rushed towards Angel.

Seeing that the enemy was about to approach their mage, Matthew and Alex couldn't help but be distraught. This chaos gave these elite soldiers an opportunity. A Lordaeron soldier seized the opportunity to cross the gap in his shield and stabbed Alex in the leg with a sword.

Hiss!

Alex only felt weakness in his left leg, and he subconsciously knelt down on one knee. A soldier behind him rushed forward and stabbed the blade of his hand hard. Poof! The sound of a sharp blade piercing the body sounded, and the sharp sword pierced through Alex's body. He spat out a mouthful of blood and collapsed. In less than a moment, the quiet man who was not good at words was hacked to death by the swarming Lordaeron soldiers.

"Alex!"

Seeing the death of his companion who had been with him day and night, Matthew roared angrily. He gave up his defenses and frantically swung the short blade in his hand. However, without his ability to defend himself, it is difficult for him to face an enemy several times his size. In less than a moment, he had been slashed several times all over his body, blood stained his leather armor red, and looking at Alex who died tragically in front of him, Matthew fell weakly......
