Mount Vastaca, the central mountain range of the kingdom of Orlanto, separates the territories of the two barons one by one.

The northern mountain ranges, which differ from the kingdom, are mostly stone mountains, and are also different from the large earth mountains in the southern mountains.

They were now at the end of the Range, and from here, at the confluence of the Apostrophe and the Sword, there was only a canyon open to a few earth mages of the Magic Guild at that time that could run through the entire Vastarka Mountain.

Standing at the foot of the mountain and looking up, I don't think the mountain is very high, and Baron Sissel's fief is a large plain, and everyone has begun a long way up the mountain after the excitement of the beginning has passed.

Fortunately, the mountain road is rugged, and the mountain road opened up by the great magician can indeed drive two carriages side by side.

Since going up the mountain, Extraordinary has found that every half an hour, a knight in leather armor in front of him reports like Captain Karen and then disappears around the corner of the mountain road.

Extraordinary is a little excited, excited and a little worried.

The excitement was to leave home for the first time in his life, to leave Sissel, and he didn't know how wonderful the outside world was, because he hadn't experienced it yet.

But the excitement is certain.

After breakfast, Miss Ruth had a restrained smile on her face, and even Lucy, who had always been a sarcastic person, did not have much to say.

Thinking back to his father's teachings and the worry on his face when the Baron said goodbye, Extraordinary knew that the road might not be peaceful.

The ruthless thieves, the hungry homeless, the cunning and ferocious monsters, and all kinds of weird climates, not including intrigue and trapping.

There are no more magical beasts above the third level on Vastarka Mountain, maybe they have been cleared by organizations such as mercenary unions, magic unions, etc., or they may have been eaten by homeless people, who knows!

"Chirp"

It was the hunter's pet mountain falcon of the mercenary escort group, and a messy feather on its wing turned upside down, as if it had been hit by a bow and arrow.

Sure enough, the hunter ran to the front of the convoy and whispered to Karen.

Then Karen raised his right hand into a fist, and the entire convoy suddenly stopped.

The troll orc warrior Dosta followed the extraordinary as he climbed the mountain, and the orcs didn't care about the pre-war tension.

Not knowing the number of enemies, not knowing the strength of the enemy, this did not make this orc hesitate.

Death only!

Knight Cullen was silent after listening to the hunter's description, and Timma came to the carriage of the two sisters.

As soon as the convoy stopped, the two sisters got out of the carriage and stood in front of it.

Seeing the knight who came over, the two sisters were a little relieved by years of dependence and trust.

Lucy didn't wait for Cullen to stand firm, so she hurriedly asked, "Uncle Cullen, is there an ambush ahead?"

To the second young lady who could guess the situation, Karen smiled slightly, "Yes, Miss Lucy, the hunter's falcon noticed that there was an ambush of about 50 thieves in the valley ahead. ”

"A small group of 50 thieves, please don't worry, the two young ladies don't worry, if there is a battle in a while, please stay in a safe position in the middle of the convoy. ”

A strong sense of confidence lingered around the Earth Knights, making the whispers of the mercenary team ambushed by the thieves around them a lot quieter.

Cullen rode back to the front of the convoy and missed a word as he passed Extraordinary's side.

"Protect the two Miss Sisel!

Can I say it's okay to only protect Miss Ruth? After all, I'm just Miss Ruth's guardian knight, and demons don't need protection.

Dosta, who was next to him, placed the two-handed greatsword he was carrying in front of him, and he now knew that orcs also had knights, but even wildebeest could not carry orcs.

Orcs only have wolf cavalry, and the wolf's kiss is more than 10 times more powerful than the hooves of wildebeests.

There is a chance to buy a Silver Moon Wolf mount for Dosta in York City, otherwise the walk will be taller and more windy than I ride on a horse, and my master's face will not exist.

Towards noon, as the sun shone on the shadow of the knight's spear approaching a dot, the knight scouts sent out by Cullen returned.

It was a bit miserable, only one of the three groups of 6 scouts came back, and a white feather arrow with a flaming tail was stuck in his shoulder.

"There's a magic archer on the other side, Lord Extraordinary!" Dosta explained behind him as he stared at the White Feather Arrow.

"Hmm!"

"Knight, the other party is a reckless thief group, there is a level 3 or 4 elf demon archer in the team, plus there is a trap set by the big thief, I am the only one who escapes. ”

"Get up first and take care of the wound. ”

The wounded were picked up by their companions, a knight activated the "Guardian Skill", and the priest of the mercenary team also blessed the "Praise of Light" to speed up wound healing.

The loss of five knights is a drop in the bucket for the earl and duke, but it is a bit painful for the baron, there are only 100 knights directly under Baron Sissel, and there are only 500 knights in the entire territory.

Knight Karen had a gloomy face, and his mind was combing through the famous bands of thieves active in the two baronies.

"The Rogue Thieves Regiment, a small thief group of 50 people, because the head of the regiment advanced to the big thief, and never entered the stream and just advanced to the third-rate thief group. ”

"It's just that the previous intelligence didn't mention the existence of elven demon archers in this little thief group. ”

The level 6 Earth Knight was scared by the level 6 thief, so it was a joke.

It is also a level 6 combat power, and if there is a title of honorific name, it is the embodiment of strength.

There is also a Sky Knight above the Earth Knight, and if Karen reaches the strength of the Paladin one day, and is much stronger than the average Paladin, he can be named Sissel Paladin Karen.

This is all the common sense of mainland walking that Dosta whispered to the extraordinary master.

The three-day period has passed, and in order not to be looked down upon by Dosta, Extraordinary forcibly asks the troll to call him "Master" from his master.

Karen was already very careful, and with the information of the hunter's mountain falcon, he still sent 6 scouts, but 5 were broken.

Extraordinary looked at Cullen, who was thinking, and he also thought about whether to change the course or go straight over the mountain.

Running away or something doesn't exist, he was a little scared when he saw 16 sealing magic rings in his mind, starting at the third level and capping at the sixth level, not a magician, who has such a big magic resistance?

Great thief, elven archer, come on, the fingers of my hands are hungry and thirsty.

Except for some people in the mercenary team who seemed to know about the reckless thieves, everyone else was gearing up, and the Terran water mage even wiped his blue wand and wiped it.

The falcon flew back and forth, and after Cullen was sure that there was no one behind him, a total of 30 knights from the squadron and rear team were placed in the forward charging position.

The knight's biggest role is to charge, if it's not enough, then charge with the "Guardian" skill.

"Onward, for Sissel, for the baron, for the glory of the knights!"

Knight Commander Karen drew his sword behind his back and pointed the way forward.

The knights in the procession clenched the reins in their left hands, and the taut touch made the wildebeest under their seats retract their strength, raise their legs high, and stamped rhythmically, ready to charge at any time.

The dwarf trees on both sides of the road were left behind, and as the road became wider and wider, Taniguchi's position gradually fell into the eyes of the riders in the front row of the convoy.

The valley where the Vastaka Mountains meet, is not at the foot of the mountain, but on the mountainside.

On the mountainside, the thieves of the reckless bandit who were committed to the back of the dwarf tree had turned the dagger behind their waist to make it easier to pull out.

The first series of weapons is always the arc long knife that the members of the thieves group love to use, after all, the thieves group is only a general name, and not all members of the team are thieves, holding short swords and daggers.

A bearded thief on the top of the mountain, holding a telescope in his right hand, was looking at the real thing, and his own perception did not allow him to see a few kilometers away.

Next to the bearded man is a pointy-eared elf, with a large bow of the same height on his back, and two button-sized magic crystals on his grip.

The dark blue "Thunder Crystal" and the yellowish "Wind Crystal" have the magic effects of "Lightning Paralysis" and "Light Spirit".

If Extraordinary sees this magic bow, he will probably breathe a sigh of relief.

From her mother Jacqueline's magic notes, Extraordinary knows that nine out of ten magicians are single-lineage magicians, because the magic elements themselves are also mutually exclusive.

Just like a fire type archmage, if you have to practice water magic, it is not impossible, but if you cultivate water magic skills to the level of a great magician, it is almost impossible, unless it is the godson of the goddess of nature.

It's not that there are no fifth-line magicians, and it's not an exaggeration to say that the odds are one in ten thousand.

That great magician fights a lot with the magic skills of the five series, how can you explain it?

There are also sealing magic equipment in this world, as well as magic scrolls, which only need a little magic power to release the power of being sealed.

"How's it going? Graybeard, what did you see? Is there anything wrong with the information? Now you can rest assured. ”

The elven archer, with his professional skill of "Eagle Eye", had already seen the situation in the mountainside valley, and when he saw that "Graybeard" had not yet given the order to attack, he teased.

"Got it, don't rush!

With a wave of the Graybeard Thief Leader's hand, a loud sound echoed through the small valley.

There was no discrepancy in the information, just an ordinary raid, the difference being that it was a nobleman, a little baron.

When the elven archers approached him for cooperation, Graybeard didn't immediately agree.

The big thief who has just advanced, and he has not mastered the advanced skills, he has to find an earth knight's bad luck, and he will die if he thinks about it.

However, after the elven archer revealed a level 6 skill, Graybeard was moved.

A baron's heritage is not comparable to that of an ordinary merchant or caravan.

The caravan consisted only of goods, or gold.

And the baron, who sent his daughter to study in Yorktown, needed to check up and down, and the courtesies were reciprocated.

This is not measured by gold coins, it may be the magic materials you need, and it is more likely that you have a skill book, whether it is what you need or not.

Skill books can rarely be bought with gold coins, and the prices they buy are sky-high.

With a "boom", a huge boulder fell from the rear of the convoy, and if the convoy fell in the middle of the process, the magic device could be discovered by the magicians in the convoy, and the cautious thieves must always be foolproof.
