"The general actually ordered the city to be abandoned?"

The soldiers couldn't believe their ears:

The hero, who has always fought to the death and never retreated, even if he was covered in blood, had to endure until the last moment, and he actually gave the order to escape?

Kevin suddenly flew into the rain and slashed down with a sword.

A silver-white sword aura swept out of the air, drawing a long line behind the crowd, and the water splashed from the street that had turned into a lake, and its power was not inferior even to thunder.

"Retreat!!"

He roared again.

It was the first time for many people to see this old general make a move, and they were all stunned by the power of the sword qi.

"Didn't you say that this old guy is a quasi-sword master, why do I think that sword has reached the level of a sword master?" A man in a garrison uniform muttered in the crowd.

At the urging of the soldiers, the residents began to cry and move in the direction of the city gate, at this time the south gate had been sealed by the falling rocks, and the north gate, which had been shaken and somewhat deformed, was finally pried open with the cooperation of a group of people, and smashed to the ground.

There was a whisper from the mountains to the west, which was still clearly audible in the rainstorm, and after hearing the sound, some of the weak-willed people shook their bodies, and some people kept falling to the ground, and there was a lot of commotion.

"Hum!"

The magic prism, which was already a little tilted, suddenly erupted in a circle of fluctuations.

The blue fluctuations covered the entire fortress, and the people who were in a trance suddenly woke up and rose from the ground. I looked around in surprise, not knowing what had just happened.

Kevin saw several more figures at the base of the prism, a middle-aged man lying on a stretcher manipulating the huge mirror with the staff in his hand. There is also a small device on the side of the stretcher.

Finding Kevin looking at himself in the air, the middle-aged man scolded:

"you...... Kevin! I'm also the governor of this fortress, so don't think about taking the limelight by yourself......"

"This idiot with a broken leg ......"

Kevin shook his head secretly and flew to the side of a masked secret guard:

"Go and ask Gna to drive the airship, his is a combat boat, it can take off and land in the rainstorm, remember to bring those two seriously injured guys with you!"

The Dark Guard nodded. The figure flickered and disappeared in place.

"Don't think I don't know what the Order has in mind, Knight Protector...... Hum! You're in luck this time. The mountain didn't even hit your heads. ”

The white light on Kevin's body shone brightly, and he flew towards the crowd, and at this time, the mountain peak was still falling gravel, all of which were slashed by him with sword qi one by one.

"How's the situation with the mage group?"

He asked the people below.

"We don't have enough water magicians. The ice wall made can only last about half an hour! ”

A drenched wind mage replied aloud.

"Half an hour is enough! Let's get up to speed! ”

Although large pieces of gravel were prevented from falling into the crowd, some small stones could not be taken care of at all, and many residents and soldiers were smashed with blood on their faces, but no one stopped, all gritted their teeth and moved forward, and those who were badly wounded were supported by soldiers and strong men, and everyone fled outside the moment before the whole fortress was about to be filled with water.

"Walking up the hill on the northeast side, the rain is not very wide. As long as you escape to the mountains, you will be safe! ”

Kevin shouted as he gasped and flew through the air.

The size and quantity of the gravel were not small, and even he had to put a lot of effort into it.

"General, isn't there danger on the mountain? There are so many of us ......."

One of the soldiers hesitated.

"The danger is on the west side. It's safe to the east for the time being, but it won't be safe soon, we're going to Stadt! ”

Kevin looked at the fortress unwillingly, this is the place he has guarded for more than ten years, but now he has to leave like a lost dog.

"I don't know if it's lucky or unlucky."

He sighed and said:

"I thought there were some powerful monsters around, but I didn't expect it to be that thing...... We're alive to be this day. What the hell! ”

……

"Whoa, whoa—"

The black-clothed little Lori screamed and ran with Natsu to the hollow of a tree.

"You're not afraid of being caught in the rain, call your head!"

Natsu patted her on the head.

"Hey, hey. Is there an atmosphere of shelter from the rain? ”

The little Lori in black flew around her, floating in the air and grinning.

Xia glanced at her angrily, at this time her body was already soaked in rain, and the heavy sword swordsman suit was very heavy, and it took a long time to take off her clothes and wring them out in her hands.

"Boom!"

A fire burned in the middle of the hollow, and she found a stick, put her clothes on the edge of the fire, and roasted them.

"When will I be able to achieve the internal force and the external release, and the dù of the dù without sticking to the water......"

Xia touched his cold arm and sighed.

"That seems to have to learn a special cheat, master, or do we learn a vindictive? Fighting spirit can also withstand rain. ”

Stephanie flew to the fire, lifted her stealth, then took out a bottle of wine from her skirt, poured it "goo-goo-goo", and exhaled a sigh of "whoosh", with a satisfied look on her face.

"Go outside and drink, it's too strong."

Natsu pinched her nose and kicked her out.

"Woo......"

The little Lori in black hung in the rain with a wine bottle, looking pitiful, and the rain slid away automatically when it fell on her black gothic loli suit, and her long gray hair showed no signs of being wet.

After pretending to be pitiful for a while, and finding that it had no effect, she found a tree with dense foliage and sat down, and drank the bottle of wine happily.

"I actually raised a little drunkard, but fortunately I didn't have to spend money to buy it."

Natsu felt uncomfortable on his chest, and reached out to untie the corset, but after thinking about it, he retracted his hand again.

"Forget it, the ...... in the wilderness When you are seen, you suffer. ”

She muttered.

Grilled a fire in a tree hollow for a while. Seeing that the rain showed no signs of stopping, she put on her soaked gloves, which were bursting with flames. The glove was quickly dried off.

"Earthen wall!"

She chanted a small spell, and a wet mound of dirt popped up outside the hollow, and the entrance to the hole was immediately sealed in half, leaving only a gap in the top for ventilation.

"Rapid growth!"

Then she took out a small vine seed from her waist bag and threw it in the mound, from which green vines emerged one after another, encircling the entire lower body of the tree. From the outside, it looks like a normal tree in the forest, and you can't notice that there is a hole in it.

This qiē is done. She took some wild fruits and dried meat out of her waist bag, and sat down on the thick leaves of the trees and ate a humble dinner.

"Hiccup—"

The sound of black-clad Lori's wine belching came from above the tree.

"How many bottles have you had?"

Xia asked with a frown.

"It's only three bottles, master."

The little Lori in black replied.

"We've been running in the forest for seven days, and we've got two days to get to the populated area. Save some drinks. ”

Xia quickly finished eating the fruit, took the dried meat and gnawed it a few times, swallowed it into his stomach with the fishy smell on it, and then reached out to take it in the package, but found that it was gone.

"Forget it, it looks like this rain is going to fall for a while, let's get some sleep."

Natsu called Stephanie to the hollow of the tree, made her take out a mat, took off her shoes and lay down tiredly.

"The hosts. Sleep well, I'll protect you. ”

The little Lori in black put her little head on her stomach and said softly.

Natsu reached out a hand and stroked her dry hair. I closed my eyes.

As time passed, the sound of the rain outside gradually became quieter, and the heavy rain that had lasted for a day finally showed signs of stopping.

The next day, the morning sun shone obliquely on the forest, and the trees were covered in shining water droplets, which looked like sparkling gems in the morning light. Radiating a dazzling glow.

A sword light flashed, and the green vines wrapped around the tree were neatly sliced open. The mound of dirt at the entrance of the cave silently disappeared to the ground, and Natsu yawned and walked out of the hollow of the tree.

She was dressed in a swordsman's suit that had been dried, and her silver hair was covered in a wide hat, and she looked full of energy, as if she had regained her strength.

"I remember there was a rocky mountain in front of me, and there was nothing bare, so it was a fork in the road."

She asked Stephanie as she flew down from a tree with a tomahawk.

"That's right, my lord, from there to the left is the Zekanha Mountains, which is only two days away from the town; To the right is the old witch's treehouse, should we go home and have a look? ”

The little Lori in black seems to have a good impression of that peaceful town, mentioning yì.

"If you don't go back, don't you still want to accept the commission now?"

Xia Na tapped her forehead with her finger:

"Our status is special, and now there is a danger of being exposed, and if we stay in one place for too long, it will only bring misfortune to the locals, so we should try not to go to those remote villages and towns, and there is no such taboo in the more prosperous big cities."

Xia took out the dagger from the Baron's Palace, pulled it out for a long time, and put it back in frustration.

“…… You're still going to try it every day, master. ”

"Hmph, I don't believe that I can't help but use a broken dagger, see if I try it tomorrow with seven successful powers."

Xia said unconvinced.

"Master, what do you mean by the Seven Successes?" The little Lori in black asked curiously.

"This is the way we use it to describe the strength of a master, you otherworldly idiot doesn't understand ......"

"Wow wow! Master, I'm not stupid, you're a regional ......."

The two chirped all the way and hurried forward, and finally arrived at their destination in the evening.

It was an ancient jungle, and the light of the setting sun could barely shine into it, and Natsu squatted on the ground to observe the distribution of vegetation, and then walked to the southeast, and it didn't take long for a small river to appear in front of him.

"Here we are, master."

The little loli in black flew to a high place, observed the terrain, pointed to an empty space by the river and said:

"The old witch's treehouse is there."

"This old woman, every time she has to add another layer of concealment to the defensive barrier, don't you know that this is very difficult to find."

Xia Fei jumped over the small river and walked towards the open space with his hands crossed on his waist.

After taking a few steps, the air in her chest made a cracking sound, and a large tree with a radius of tens of meters appeared in the originally empty space.

“…… Why chest first? ”

She was very shameless and hung down the hand that was crossed at her waist.

"It's good that no one saw it."

Someone thought to himself comfortingly.

"Bang Bang ......"

As soon as they walked under the tree, two black birds flapped their wings and flew away from the tree quickly.

"Oh, that's a kind of magic alert, just in time to let the old witch know we're coming."

Natsu looked in the direction the two birds were leaving, reached out and touched the trunk of the tree covered with green moss, and a rough wooden door appeared in front of him.

The door was a distinctly different color from the blue trunk, a dull crimson with some magical threads hanging from it, but it had been broken by someone.

"Excuse me—"

Xia unceremoniously pushed open the wooden door and stepped inside. (To be continued) R655
