Chapter Seventy-Four: The Old Rival Is Gone (2)
But the other party is not a mediocre hand, the warriors are all wearing a spell resistance ** equipment, and there are some priests of the small gods of the vassal nobles next to them who cast spells to restore their physical strength, and there are some wizards who are similar to ordinary students in the back.
In particular, they carried a lot of enchanted arrows, and some of them were worth as much gold as the Demon Breaker Arrows, which were enough to threaten the students who only cast one or two shield-type spells or protective arrows.
Really.
It wasn't long before someone was exposed in the middle of the bunker's shoulder, and some of Giordano Bruno's students began to fall to the ground injured, much to the old wizard's heartache.
Although the injured were quickly dragged behind the rocks by their classmates for treatment, there were fewer and fewer people attacking, and the other party became more aggressive and unscrupulous.
On the one hand, there are academy teachers and students who fled in a panic and are not well prepared for spell casting materials, and on the other hand, there are mercenaries who have premeditated and experienced in combat, and they make a judgment!
Soon, another pair of mercenaries rushed to hear the news, and they would cut off the back roads of these teachers and students of the Sarn Academy from the flank and rear.
Although the students who were surrounded in the middle were struggling to support themselves with a mouthful of arrogance, it was obvious that a few men and women had already lost their courage after being injured, and if it weren't for the fact that they knew that the result would not be too good after surrendering, they resisted desperately, wanting to wait for the opportunity to break through, but seeing that they were getting less and less mana and the spell casting materials on their bodies.
It can be seen that they will lose their ability to resist, so they will have to be caught!
Suddenly.
A sharp-eyed mercenary saw several sneaky familiar figures, running past the intersection not far away.
That's Chen Xuyuan!
The mercenary's mind spun instantly, and he immediately remembered who those people who slipped past, and shouted: "Those people are the fugitives who killed our mercenary group! Send someone to stop them!!
Because of the attack of the mercenaries on the opposite side, one of Giordano Bruno's students also got a chance to breathe, and he strangely swept the other party's line of sight, and immediately found the "savior" wearing a wizard's robe.
The brown-haired male student immediately shouted, "But the wizard friend of Sarn City~ Giordano Bruno University is here! We are besieged by mobs, if we can help, we will definitely reward you heavily!!"
Chen Xuyuan was running happily as Chen Run, when he suddenly heard someone pointing at him and shouting.
Pa Tyusha was also at the tip of her ears, and when she heard the shout, she paused, but she didn't stop, but slowed down, turned her head and asked Chen Xuyuan: "It seems that the most famous astrologer in Sarn City, Bruno University, is besieged, do we want to do a favor." ”
Master Chen was not ready to stop saving people at first, but when he heard this name, he suddenly realized that he finally remembered who this person was.
The Bruno scholar was also very famous on the continent of Palmers, and seems to have written a number of books, including several of his great works in the Sarn Library.
He was very good at using metaphors to elicit profound astronomical knowledge, and was a well-known wizard scholar, who wrote "The Banquet on the Ash Heap", "On the Cause, the Origin and the One", "On the Infinity, the Universe, and the Worlds", "The Expulsion of the Arrogant Beast", "The Secret of the Pegasus and the Wild Donkey", "On the Passion of the Hero" and so on.
Because he was hunted down by religious persecution on other continents, he fled to the city of Saan.
During this time, his talent was deeply protected and appreciated by Griff, who not only gave him a mansion and money, but also gave him a lucrative job teaching astronomy at Sarn College.
However, if he wasn't a pure-blood wizard, that appreciation might have been greatly diminished.
During his seclusion in his villa on the outskirts of the city of Sarn, he published three more works on the theory of witchcraft written in the hire-writing script of the ancient arcane empire: On the Three Minimities and Limits, On Monads, Numbers and Forms, and On Immeasurable and Innumerable.
Because of the large number of descriptions of his writings, which even influenced the mystery and authority of the gods and goddesses, it can be said that the number of his loyal readers who admired this person was the jealousy and hatred of various churches and other scholars who supported the injection of different views such as the Geocentric Theory.
Chen ran and ran ...... No, it was Master Chen who turned his head and saw that a group of twenty or thirty people were bombarding the mercenaries who looked like seven or eight teachers and students, and actually sent seven or eight people to come and catch them.
He's thinking about whether to run away or run away~
Suddenly.
Before the mercenaries arrived, a burst of elemental orbs and rays had already flown over, intending to prevent them from escaping.
There was a burst of explosions, bursting on the road in front of Chen Xuyuan and his master and apprentice.
But after all, Eddie and Higrid have been following the practice of martial arts, and they have some light skills (that is, light body techniques), and their master and apprentice stepped in an instant, and the forefeet of several people quickly flashed those few single spells.
Chen Xuyuan also pulled Pa Qiusha's forearm, who was screaming and couldn't dodge at all, and quickly retreated to the side.
Master Chen happened to be unhappy today, and he was already angry in his heart, and secretly said in his heart: Lao Tzu has always been a person who does not offend me, I will not offend anyone. However, this kind of selfish goods that hunt the same kind as prey for the sake of profit should be killed by a rabid brute! This is a fair way to repay virtue with virtue and repay grievances with straightforwardness.
If it is really the same as in the brain-dead drama, let the virtuous people immediately tie their hands and wait to be slaughtered in the face of the threat of the enemy, or leave their hands to kill those who want to kill themselves, then in reality, how can there be living people who are willing to abide by morality and live in harmony with others?
I'm afraid that the rest are all extremely selfish and hypocritical people who are dressed in moral cloak but only want others to pay for him.
The faces of those mercenaries were full of anger and confidence, their eyes revealed murderous intent and desire for monetary benefits, looking at the gaze of Chen Xuyuan and the others, just like a rapist watching a few peerless beauties without clothes throw themselves into the net, or a butcher with a butcher knife in his hand, looking at a few lambs to be slaughtered.
They don't see the slightest fear of their own death, like a numb marionette whose mind is completely dominated by money**.
The eyes of those mercenaries looking at Chen Xuyuan and the others didn't look like they were looking at a living person at all, but a mobile gold coin that was enough for them to get drunk and dream.
Looking at the gazes of these people, Chen Xuyuan's expression became extremely indifferent, but there was an incomparable huge killing intent in his heart.
It is the so-called ~
"The sky kills, the stars change the place, the earth kills, the dragon and the snake rise to land, the man kills, the heaven and the earth repeat. ”
Although it is impossible for the mercenaries to read this translation in the "Yellow Emperor Yin Fu Sutra", they will naturally not be unfamiliar with Chen Xuyuan's eyes full of murderous intent when they see them.
