Chapter 166: Who is Zuo Feng?
In places like the "Roof of the Continent", the dead horse is not only at the foot of the mountain, but also in the mountains.
The rolling hills look tightly clustered together from a distance, and when they really go up the mountain road, they find that they have walked for a long time, and they have not even turned over a mountain.
Liu Ci carried Casey and ran on the mountain road, and two or three hundred miles of magic talismans were exhausted, so you can imagine the distance she took. Fortunately, when she saw the mountain on the left side of Ordolun Peak, with magicians stationed every short distance, and the undead knight behind her, she knew that she and Casey were safe for the time being.
With a stiff face, several magicians wearing mage robes surrounded Liu Ci with a guarded face:
"Who? This is not the place for you, get out of here! ”
Liu Ci hurriedly said: "I have no ill intentions, this is my friend, he is a teacher at the Amster Academy of Magic and Wizardry, we met the Dark Mage on the road, he was injured and needs to be treated by the priests of the Holy See." ”
The vigilance of several people did not let down, fortunately Izzy Casey was still conscious, and reluctantly motioned for Liu Ci to put him down, and as soon as his injured face was exposed in front of people, someone among the magicians had already recognized him.
"Is that you, Izzy Casey? He is indeed from Amster's School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and I have known him for many years. However, he didn't have it on the guard list this time, so he should have come to Ordolun Peak by himself and met a dark mage on the way. ”
Now is not the time to explain the reason in detail, an acquaintance recognized him, which undoubtedly made him and Liu Ci's identity much more innocent. He also smiled at the other party reluctantly:
"Hoss, we really haven't seen each other in years. I was injured in the hunt for a dark mage, who was previously the former lord of Emster City...... On the way, we also met another undead summoner, looking at the route he is taking, he should also come to Zuofeng, you should be careful. ”
The mage named Hoth nodded when he heard this, and whispered a few words to his companions, and one of the mages was not very happy to say: "Let's go, I will take you to the priests of the Holy See, as for whether they are free to treat you now, it is not for us to decide." Hoth, you also spread the news, another undead summoner who is not afraid of death is rushing here, so that everyone is ready to fight at any time! ”
Not to mention how Huo Si contacted other people through special means, Liu Ci stood next to him and didn't interject, just listened silently. Hoss: Although the conversation between them and Casey is not much, it also reveals a lot of information.
The first group of magicians who knew how to fly a month ago she had come to the Far West to participate in the "garrison", what were they guarding? Dark mages are constantly coming, and they don't always try to kill themselves.
The defenders were probably not only the mages of Emster, but also from all over the world, and the Holy See came later. What they want to guard is what the dark mages want.
Could it be that there is really some kind of treasure on the roof of the continent in the extreme west, which has caused the mainland to move? Liu Ci secretly vetoed this, if it was a treasure left by a strong man in the continent, the battle line would be too long.
Huo Si's mage companion took Liu Ci and the others to the mountain, he didn't want to take Liu Ci with him, and he probably didn't look down on her as a martial artist, but Casey's injury was too serious, and the mage didn't want to help him, so he had to let Liu Ci continue to follow.
Liu Ci didn't have any sense of humiliation to be despised, firstly, her Daoji attribute determined her dislike for the dark mage, and secondly, she was now leading the troubled waters to Zuofeng, for the sake of others trying to help her block the knife, she had to keep a low profile.
After a while, she and Casey came to another garrison post.
This time there are still a few magicians, and the strength is at least the great magician, but among them there are no more acquaintances of Casey.
The mage, who came up with the two of them, handed Casey to the second sentry post and told him a rough story about what had happened.
These magicians had probably gone through countless battles in the course of a month, and the sight of Liu Ci and Casey was like that of a thief, and the sight of Casey's almost disfigured cheeks added to their credibility.
Hoth's companion completed the task, directly handed Casey to the other party, and motioned with his eyes for Liu Ci to follow him away, preferably away from Zuo Feng immediately.
Liu Ci is so psychologically strong, he is not moved at all, and is simply playing the game of "everyone pretends to be stupid".
Most of the mages are dead houses, and their social surfaces are amazingly narrow, and that person has never seen such a cheeky person as Liu Ci, so angry that his pale face is a little more flushed, and he flicked the sleeves of the mage's robe and left.
The magicians guarding the second sentry post didn't know Liu Ci's details at all, so they replaced them with layers of sentry posts and sent Liu Ci and Casey to the place where the priests of the Holy See were.
Liu Ci smiled and thanked the last person who sent her to the station, "By the way, the undead summoner we met on the road, he also summoned an undead knight, now I don't know if it's estimated to run around on the mountain, you have to let the mages guarding the guards be careful." ”
The magician nodded his noble and cold head, even if it was Liu Ci's "kind" reminder to thank him. Liu Ci was not annoyed at all, and sent him away with a smile.
Izzy Casey, who was in a better spirit, watched from the side, and secretly warned herself not to provoke women, especially a black-bellied one like Liu Ci - the undead knight was obviously attracted by the two, according to her, the magicians who guarded it had to thank her for reminding her, hey!
Casey was amused, and the thought of Katrina who had been taken away by Jeffrey filled his heart with sadness.
The place where the two arrived was basically the top of Zuo Peak, where there were not only Holy See priests, but also many of Casey's seniors and colleagues.
Among them she knew was the Vice Dean Lierman, who had dealt with the Eater of Souls incident.
"Izzy Casey, why are you here?"
Before the two could speak to the serious-looking priest of the Holy See, Vice President Lilman spotted Casey. For Liu Ci beside Casey, the vice dean, who had a lot of trivial matters, just felt familiar, but he had long forgotten to see Liu Ci.
Casey had to tell the story again, and not only Vice President Lilman, but also the people in the Holy See on the side listened solemnly. Of course, these strong men are not afraid of any undead summoner, but the characters that Casey said.
Jeffrey Johnson, a dark mage!
It's hard to believe that he once served as the lord of Emster's city for almost a decade!
If he is a dark mage, how many dark mages are hiding in Emst under his cover? The sparsely populated diocese of Emster is not easy to find in a barren valley or deep in the prairie.
The enemy is hiding in the shadows, and they don't know how many people there are on the other side or when they will launch their final attack. This was a very negative factor for the entire garrison operation.
In the past month, almost every day, dark mages have come to attack the left and right sides of Ordolun Peak, although they have been wiped out by the mages who are guarding the long front, but the continuous battles have made these defenders mentally exhausted and weakened...... What if the enemy, who is hiding in the shadows, chooses to be organized and planned, and attack at this time?
Vice Dean Lierman's face was particularly ugly, "Since I got the news, the Magic Association and asked the Great Magicians to come as much as possible, and you said that you can't alarm the Great Magicians in Emster Academy, and now our people are here, if you can't hold this level, the Magic Association will not bear this charge!" ”
The Priest of Light also sneered: "Mr. Lierman, do you think this is the right time to accuse anyone?" The Dark Mage is not only an enemy of the Holy See, but also an enemy of the entire continent, if you can't hold this place, the archbishop will certainly be held accountable by His Majesty the Pope, and you, the Amster School of Magic and Wizardry, will also bear the infamy of harming the diocese. ”
The two of them are a lot older, and they are in a high position, and they are almost arguing on the spot under great pressure at this time.
Liu Ci originally wanted to see the excitement, but Izzy Casey was here to receive treatment, and the Priest of Light and Vice Dean Lilman couldn't treat people before they quarreled?
"Both, God is always with us, and the more difficult times are, the more we should not unite all our forces and follow God's will to remove the dark forces that are not tolerable in the world? Just like this mage Casey, as long as the priest heals him, there will be one more mage to guard him immediately, and that's the most important thing, right? ”
Vice Dean Lilman and the Priest of Light turned their heads to glare at her at the same time, as if they had just noticed a large living person standing next to Casey.
"Who are you? What kind of place is this, can anyone come up? Mr. Lilman, a garrison sent by the Magical Society, has easily let someone who doesn't know his identity come here, do you need an explanation? ”
Vice President Lierman choked, he obviously felt that Liu Ci was familiar, but he couldn't name it.
Liu Ci smiled: "Lord Priest, it doesn't matter who I am, you have to believe that I am no less devout to God than others." If you don't believe me for who I am, Abbot Lilman will remember that last year my sister Rachel was taken to the Holy Land by the Priestess Bertha, and I heard that Rachel had been recommended to enter the Holy Land Abbey, which should prove that I am not a malicious person.
However, since you asked, I did come across a piece of news by chance. Jeffrey Johnson, a dark mage who hid as a city lord, once befriended a certain priest in the diocese of Amster, maybe ask that priest to get some clues about what conspiracy Jeffrey Johnson is planning? ”
Liu Ci's tone was sincere and humble, and it seemed to be a well-meaning suggestion, so he almost asked the Priest of Light to find out the traitors in the Diocese of Amster, lurking in the Holy See, and then talk about anything else.
Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking, the priest's expression changed greatly, and Lierman's face was pale, as if Liu Ci's words spoke to his heart.
After laughing for a while, Vice Dean Lilman suddenly remembered that in the Eater of Souls incident, there was also an Edward who was suspected of studying dark magic at the Amster School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and was now the archbishop...... Whenever Vice Dean Lierman thought about it, he felt that the reputation of the college was full of danger.
Yes, the girl in front of her was the mercenary who took over the "Eater of Souls Incident", and it was because of this that her sister attracted the attention of the priestess Bertha, and was later recommended to go to the Holy Port.
As soon as he thought of this, Vice Dean Lierman was not so happy about Liu Ci's actions to suppress the arrogance of the Priest of Light. No, no matter whether the defense is successful or not, the academy will report the suspicion of Edward to the Holy See later, and the Holy See will investigate and deal with it, it will always be more difficult than Edward making a bigger disturbance in the end, the place where he studied dark magic is in the academy, and this matter has to be detained on the head of the Amster School of Magic and Wizardry in the end.
was sprayed by Liu Ci, and the Bright Priest's face remained unswerving, but he still had to treat Casey first.
Liu Ci sneered in his heart, some people love to pretend, saying that they are priests of the Holy See, where is there any divine mercy? When there is an argument with others, she treats the injury in front of her first, and she will not mention the black material of the Holy See of Amster. was sprayed with blood, isn't this time to be treated obediently? Should!
