Chapter 90: In the Mist
"Ahh But from Xiao Chen's point of view, it sounded very light.
"Katerina, it's me!" Xiao Chen shouted, taking off his hood to reveal his face.
Caterina finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the people invited: "Brother Xiao, the people around you can't see it when you run." I was still staring at Tasia, but when I looked at you, I couldn't find her when I looked back. ”
"Don't worry, we shouldn't be far away. ”
"Oh, but why are you talking so softly?"
"I am afraid that this thick fog has the effect of blocking out the sound. As long as we are a little farther away, the sound will be much weaker. Xiao Chen said, he rode to Caterina's side, "This must be a conspiracy of the Shadow Troupe, we must always be careful of what will come out of the fog." ”
The surrounding buildings were all covered in thick fog, and in the fog they had nothing to refer to their position, so they moved a few steps casually, but they had no direction.
"We can't go on like this, we have to keep going in one direction, even if we can't touch them, we have to go out first. Xiao Chen said.

When Tasia rode a horse to follow Xiao Chen's charge, there was a hole in the ground in front of her, and the horse naturally gave way to it, and when she bypassed the hole, she could no longer see the others around her.
She called for Belia and Xiao Chen's names, but there was no response.
The horse she was riding seemed to be afraid of the white mist, and refused to go there, so she had to turn over and dismount, and began to look for the others on foot.
In this white world, time seemed to be non-existent, and she walked there, but she didn't know how long she had walked and how far she had walked.
There was a wave of fear in her heart at this time, because since she was a child, she had never been alone in such an environment where no one could be relied on.
It occurred to her that perhaps the fire magic she was good at could dispel the white mist, so she began to unleash the wall of fire in her place. Casting spells in the white mist seemed to be particularly laborious, but it took more mental energy and time for her to finally make the wall of fire burn.
The rising flames formed a criss-crossing web of fire around her, and the white mist around her seemed to subside under the scorching flames, and Tasia felt much safer under the warmth they bringed.
But she didn't know that just a stone's throw away beside her, Sancho was holding a dagger and looking at her coldly.
——————————————————
This mist was naturally brought by Sancho, to be exact, a treasure from the Black Mountain Branch of the Shadow Regiment, the Mist Set.
It consists of a smoke pipe and a pair of tracking glasses. Not only does the smoke have the effect of isolating sound, but it also weakens the energy of magic and fighting energy. Sancho, who was wearing glasses, could see bright red figures in the white mist.
He had a premonition in his heart that Macora's statement was wrong, so he set aside the large army and set up this killing situation on the way back of the Black Mountain mage.
Now, it turns out that his hunch was right. Now that this group of people has returned, the people of the Shadow Regiment are probably less auspicious.
His strength alone was far inferior to that team, but with these white mists, he became a hunter, and the prey were still in a daze.
Sancho was about to take out Xiao Chen, the source of trouble, first, but just as he was about to make a move, another female mage cast a fire spell that not only began to scorch the white mist, making the mist begin to thin out, but also filling the tracking glasses with red. There is no way to sort the Hokage and the human figure at all.
"Since you are looking for your own death, let's start with you. Sancho pulled out a dagger and held it in his hand, this dagger was called the Impiercer, it had a strong penetrating effect on any shield, and he had specially prepared it to deal with the Black Mountain Mage. From memory, he walked towards where Tasia was.
——————————————————
The flames burned for a few minutes, and when Tasia looked up, she saw that what should have been the sky had a faint cyan color. She believes that if she persists a little longer, she can find someone else.
However, she suddenly felt her heart pounding, something was rapidly approaching, so she did not hesitate to activate the protective bracelet.
She heard a thud coming from behind her, and when she turned around, she saw a middle-aged man holding a dagger and thrust into her shield with a blow. The shield began to crack through the dagger's insertion.
She raised her hand to shoot a fireball, but the 0 middle-aged man disappeared into the mist like a ghost. But moments later, he reappeared in his same position and plunged the dagger into the crack again.
She attacked twice more with the fire spear and rocket, but the other party still easily avoided the fire spear, and the rocket was shattered by his knife, and the man continued to attack on the rift, and the shield finally couldn't withstand the opponent's attack and shattered like an eggshell.
The mage was already at a disadvantage against the assassins at close range, not to mention that Tasia's power was weakened by the white mist.
When the last of her rocket magic was slashed by the other party, the pitch-black dagger in the man's hand was already against her neck.
"You...... Is it Sancho?" The surrounding firelight lit up the faces of the two, and Tasia suddenly remembered Sancho's characteristics in Xiao Chen's description.
"Yes, who are you, female mage?"
Tasia's throat was held against the knife and she was forced to tilt her head slightly, but the more she did this, the more unyielding a look appeared in her eyes, "I'm Tasia of the Alonso family, I think you've heard the name." ”
Her answer was met with a brief moment of silence, and Sancho asked, "Is it you? As the eldest lady of the Alonso family, how could you, as the eldest lady of the Alonso family, appear with Xiao Chen?"
Tasia exuded a naturally arrogant expression: "Hmph, is there any problem? Your Excellency Xiao Chen is an important ally of our family and a good friend of mine, I heard that someone is going to be unfavorable to him tonight, of course our friends have to contribute." ”
Sancho said categorically: "No way! I have been investigating these people for a long time, they have not been in Montenegro for less than half a year since they came to Montenegro from nowhere, and they have no time to become allies of the Alonso family." You've known him for only a few weeks, so you can become a friend with your life? I don't believe it! Why the hell are you involved in this?"
"You actually take the time to evaluate friendship? Then I really don't have much to say to you. Tasia did not hide the look of contempt on her face, and she was like the two of them in front of Xiao Chen.
Sancho angrily threw the dagger at Tasia's neck, a wisp of blood flowing down her neck, and he shouted, "Ignore Xiao Chen's business for now, and dispel your fire wall magic!"
"In the name of Alonso or in the name of the magician, I will not back down in front of you. Tasia's voice trembled a little as she said this, she swallowed a mouthful of saliva, the movement of her throat widening her wound and allowing more blood to flow out, her lips trembled slightly, and she gasped for a long time before she spoke again. "You can kill me, threats will only tarnish my honor, and we people value honor above life, so die. ”
