The mage on the other side couldn't help but be stunned when he saw Caterina act like this, he didn't expect such a young girl to have such a decisive side, he stopped a few knights who were about to rush forward, for fear that their impulsiveness would ruin this perfect capture.

He bought the Wild Bears, kept an eye on the channels for buying healing potions, stayed with those gangsters all day long, and finally caught this clue, if he could find Gabriel's whereabouts through this girl, it would definitely become his entry into the Tower of Ice, and he would never allow anyone to destroy it.

Therefore, when Caterina raised the dagger, he decided not to be impatient, and took it slowly.

He said in a tone of pity: "A child of your age is the most ignorant of the preciousness of life, and you think that if you die like this, the people you want to protect will care about your sacrifice? ”

"Mercenaries also have their own glory, this is my choice, it has nothing to do with the others!" Katarina's hand trembled slightly, and the fighting spirit at the tip of the dagger accidentally slashed through her forehead, and blood slid down the bridge of her nose, making her face hideous.

"Guys who can only use knives and guns are so stupid. The mage frowned, and he secretly sped up the spell cast, trying to take Caterina down before she could make a move.

"Miss Bailing, you're not serious, are you? They won't agree to let us go, and it's useless for you to poke a hole in your forehead. The stump looked at her bleeding face, and her whole face was wrinkled.

Caterina said in a very slight voice: "Listen, let's rush in the direction of the mage in a while, I say go, you throw a short knife at the mage with all your strength, if there is an explosion on the ground, don't panic, go straight to the front three through the flames of the explosion." ”

"Do you have a secret weapon?" said the tree stump, "but I think if I escape, I might be hacked to death by them." ”

"Do you think you have something to do with me, and you can still live if you are caught by them? Rather than being tortured, if you don't fight, you will die a happy death!"

The tree stump looked grim and nodded slowly.

"Little girl, I'll give you one last chance to think again. The mage persuaded again.

Just as he finished speaking, Caterina shouted, "Go!"

At the same time, she mobilized all her strength and threw the dagger in her hand at the mage. Hearing her order, the tree stump made the same action, and the aura of vindictive energy emitted from his body was also emitted, this unemployed vagrant who was in the market was actually a low-level warrior.

With a whistling sound, the two daggers flew straight towards the mage in the sky. A pair of ice armor suddenly appeared on his body, blocking the attacks of the two daggers, but he had no support in the air, and under the effect of the impact, he involuntarily flew upside down.

After throwing the dagger, Caterina took out two hedron grenades from the basket as fast as she could, and slashed them directly at the two warriors below the mage. The grenade exploded, blasting the two charging fighters away. Although it was not fatal, it made them temporarily incapacitated.

"Follow me!" Caterina nimbly navigated the gap between the two knights, the stump following her through the blockade. The two of them rushed out of the alley, and the tree stump shouted, "I know this place, come with me." ”

He grabbed Katerina and slipped into the stalls in the market.

The mage finally straightened his body in the air, and saw that the two had run into the market. He hurriedly urged the knights to chase after them.

The stump was worthy of the snake of the ground, and he took Caterina into the alley of the slum at once. The roads were chaotic, the population was large, and there were few city guards guarding it. Therefore, the pursuers behind have not been able to catch up, but the two of them have not been able to throw them clean.

Crossing an alley, stepping on a stinky pond, running through two bends and following a tree stump over a fence, Caterina said, "I feel like someone is haunting us." ”

The stump glanced back and saw that several knights were still chasing after the alley in the distance, "I haven't seen anyone else." ”

Caterina said, "No! It seems that there are people running after us on the left and right, are they outflanking us?"

"Oh no! the mage is gone!"

Caterina looked up and saw a floating figure in front of her, and the mage had rushed in front of them at some point and intercepted them.

The mage raised his hand slightly, and a long-prepared spell was cast, and a swirling air flow suddenly appeared on the ground beneath Caterina's feet, rolling her off the ground and hanging in midair, the air currents centered on her body, causing her to spin.

Seeing that she was restrained, the tree stump wanted to escape, but after taking a step, he fell back and reached out to grab Katarina.

The mage smiled coldly, concocted the same method, and cast the wind magic again, and the stump only felt the wind rise under his feet, and he and Caterina flew into the sky together.

Just as the mage was about to use ice magic to injure the two of them, he suddenly heard a voice ringing in his ears: "Stop!"

The two men in the air slowed down in response, then stopped, and were staggered to the ground.

The mage turned his head in fright, only to see a young man with a stern eye floating behind him. The young man had a pair of black eyes, and the moment the mage looked at him, the young man's pupils suddenly dilated, like a monster opening its big black mouth, and swallowed itself in one gulp.

His spirit was plunged into darkness, as if he had been locked in a windowless chamber. There was no sound, no image, no perception, and even he lost the concept of time, and the chaotic thoughts came to his head one by one, and then receded like a tide. Only extreme anxiety and panic remained.

For a while, he even felt like he was dead, his soul being drained and thrown into endless space. In this way, it felt like many, many years later, he finally found that a little light appeared in his black world, and then the whole world brightened up again.

He found himself lying on the ground, with a man's shoe in front of him, and looking up down his shoe and trouser legs, it was the young man standing in front of him.

Looking further out, he saw that the six knights who had followed him had all fallen to the ground, stained with blood. Two warriors, a man and a woman, are wiping their weapons and putting their swords in their sheaths. The man in one looked a little familiar, and seemed to be the personal guard of some important person.

The mage looked back at the face of the person in front of him in horror, and found that in addition to the yellow hair, the shape of the person's face and eyes also coincided with someone in his impression: "You are, you are Xiao Chen!"
