"This is Master Kidd, an illusionist. ”

The old man nodded to Raphael and said, "I'm still an assassin. ”

This is a gesture of goodwill, indicating his second identity. Although there is no such thing as an assassin restraining a mage in this world, the assassin conceals his identity, and the lethality is still quite large. A magician of the same realm is attacked by an assassin, and the chance of death is not small.

Xia He glanced at Kidd, this old man had an ordinary face, a short stature, but he was not thin, he looked like a farmer doing farm work, his face was quite wrinkled, and his skin was a little dry yellow.

The illusionist himself is also a type of spellcaster, and if he is a part-time assassin, he should have no money when he was a child, so he had to do this kind of thing. The background is not good enough, but there is talent.

The illusion of the illusionist can also interfere with reality, and it is not all illusion.

Most of the time, the illusionist's attacks are hidden in many illusions, and they have the flavor of an assassin in themselves.

Raphael then understood why his instincts were disgusted with the old man. The combination of illusionist and assassin professions is perfect.

Xia He didn't feel worried at all, illusion also depends on the realm, and when he achieves the Yang God, and then refines a Taiyin mirror, the illusion of the same realm is still useless to himself.

It is useless, not diminished.

The Taoist priests at the side door are afraid of illusions, otherwise not to mention the Taoist priests from the Nine Great Avenue Palace, even the Taoist priests who are officials in the empire will not worry about illusions.

The Taoist priest himself is also a master of illusion, and if he understands the principle, he will naturally not waste his energy.

Taiyin Immortal Mansion has a special immortal artifact, Taiyin Mirror, the attributes of the fake are only weakened, all kinds of functions are there, and seeing through illusion is only one of the inconspicuous functions.

After Xia He learned his identity, he didn't go to find out, so as not to cause the other party to be unhappy.

Miguel, a young man, is very good at talking, either flattering people, or making people feel that everything he says is solid, not detours, and does not embarrass you.

This is a talent who does business, and he makes money with harmony.

Even Abigail paid some attention to Miguel, because the goddess of wealth liked this kind of person the most.

However, Miguel was born in the Arcane Empire, and it may be difficult for him to be willing to serve the gods.

Because the professions in this world are powerful and the spread of knowledge is relatively wide, the people of the Arcane Empire have a philosophy, that is, if they serve the gods, the price is not small, and after death, the soul will also belong to the gods.

Everyone is used to freedom, so naturally they don't want to do this.

There are even those who feel that they would rather have their souls dissipated than go to the kingdom of God to continue their lives.

This idea is not surprising at all, and there are similar people in many worlds. Therefore, as servants of God, priests are also very hard, not only have to fight against other gods and believers, but also have to face the existence of the Arcane Empire.

If mortals have no power, the gods can also send disasters to force mortals to comply.

However, in this world, the gods cannot be brutal.

Miguel also notices Abigail, and his eyes light up on this 'female warrior'. What a beautiful woman, but it seems that her status is not low. In the camp in the distance, Abigail sat alone at a table, surrounded by people waiting for him, and some elite men in black iron armor gathered around.

"Your Excellency, who is that person?" Miguel asked, pointing to Abigail in the distance.

"That's someone sent by the headmaster to keep us safe. Raphael replied with a pre-prepared rhetoric.

Miguel wondered, Raphael is an epic realm magician, he feels much stronger than himself, and needs a female warrior to protect him?

However, Raphael is a professor of the research school, and it is estimated that his practical ability is poor. And around that woman, there are all elite warriors, all of them with a terrifying aura.

"Don't ask, it's a friend of the Headmaster. Raphael was afraid that Miguel had done something to make Asra uncomfortable, and he had heard of the temper of the blood mage, and he had also seen the methods of killing.

"Your Headmaster, your Excellency?" said Miguel, referring to Jennifer, who did not dare to call her name directly or speak in a disrespectful tone.

Every legend has followers, although I heard that Jennifer is alone and has no students, the problem is that she has a lot of friends, all of whom are big shots. If you want to kill yourself, you don't have to do it at all.

"It's our Vice-Chancellor, appointed by the Empire, Your Excellency the Blood Mage. ”

"It's him!" Miguel's voice was a little agitated.

"What, you know?"

"Of course I don't know, I'm a little person. Miguel laughed.

Raphael also smiled, a little dissatisfied, Miguel had no choice but to say: "Although His Excellency Blood Mage has a bit of a reputation, it is really admirable. ”

"Why do you say that?"

"I've heard that he was just a declining baron before, and he contributed a treasure to His Majesty to get the royal support. However, this kind of rumor forgets one thing, His Majesty the Emperor can't get any treasure, and he will promote a person to such a point because of the treasure? You are a professor in the academy, and you don't understand what people from our background think. ”

"Tell me, then, what do you think?"

"Needless to say, we all want to be people like the Blood Mage, who can expand the territory and glorify our ancestors. What is the point of others saying those jealous words, and they are indispensable to others. ”

"You can talk. Raphael said lightly.

"Don't be reluctant to listen, I'm telling the truth. ”

Xia Hexin said that this guy, who doesn't know Raphael's attitude towards himself, dares to bet like this, and he is also a person with sharp intuition.

What a talent, if it's possible, just get it to your own side.

"If you really worship him so much, why don't you go to him?"

"I don't have that qualification. Miguel said.

"Over there in the imperial capital, the Marquis' Mansion is still recruiting. ”

"It's an empty shelf over there, and if Rhode Island needs people, it's pretty much the same. It's a pity that Rhode Island is the hometown of the blood mage, and it is estimated that outsiders will not be used. ”

"That's right. "Raphael wasn't stupid, he didn't want to introduce this guy.

Everything, you have to wait for the principal to make his own decision.

Xia He is also a little vigilant, this kind of person who comes up to boast about himself and has the heart of refuge, but he has to be vigilant, although he can be included in the door, but he has to investigate behind his back.

Both teams had eaten, had a brief rest, and then set out on their way.

Because of the re-verification of the identity, the caravan was no longer vigilant, the professors and lecturers of the Imperial Academy would not rob, Abigail followed with the team, and Xia He and Professor Raphael simply walked with the leader. Miguel was willing to do the same, and with one more team, his caravan would be much safer.

Xia He had instructed him, and Raphael asked casually, "Miguel, what are your teams selling?"

"A batch of bows and crossbows, because the empire is now redressing the army, all kinds of magic guns have been issued, most of them are better than bows and crossbows, and these bows and crossbows can't be lost, and it just so happens that aliens have been found on the ice field, and they also have equipment needs, so we will sell the inventory. ”

In the past, this was a felony, but Raphael didn't question it, because the appearance of magic guns made ordinary bows and crossbows meaningless.

If a soldier has mastered the magic gun, he will be able to accurately attack enemies within a 100-meter radius. If you use a bow and arrow, it will take a year or two of training to have this effect, and it is difficult to continue to improve.

"Your Excellency, this kind of thing, the Noble Alliance has agreed, and I just do what I am told. Miguel did not forget to explain.

"You know, it's true that the bow and crossbow are going to be eliminated, but you sell ......"

"It was made by the nobles themselves, and it was definitely not the one that the empire stockpiled. Those weapons were more sophisticated and more lethal, and the noble alliance did not dare to sell them, preferring to destroy them. Therefore, the profit this time will not be too big, mainly because everyone is doing this to make up for the loss. ”

"It's okay, Miguel, it's none of my business. Raphael laughed.

The two teams merged in harmony and walked towards the depths of the ice field. The ice field is still green during this season, and some fox-sized animals can occasionally be seen on the ground, all of which are ordinary creatures that prey on rodents, and there are no magical beasts.

Seeing that it was getting dark, Miguel asked Professor Raphael: "Your Excellency, our caravan will not be on the way at night, do you want to set up camp and rest now?"

"Well, we're camping on the west side. ”

Miguel didn't understand why, but he didn't ask, so he ordered his men to set up camp, and the same was true on the Xia River side, the distance between the camps of the two sides was only ten meters away this time.

This kind of camp is different from the military camp, although there are guards around it, but there are no ready-made camp walls.

The caravan simply used carts to enclose an area, and on the Xia River side, ordinary wooden planks were used, also to prevent the wind, and then a magic guard was arranged.

On Xiahe's side, there are divine soldiers and doom iron cavalry who are in charge of the sentry, and they refuse to use ordinary soldiers anymore, and they have suffered losses before.

The caravan invited people from Xia He's side to come over, and Xia He didn't refuse, but the auxiliary mages all stayed in the camp, along with the soldiers, and only the academy magicians came to the caravan camp.

There was a bonfire in the camp, and it was still quite cold at night, and this campfire was set up with firewood, and there were actually holes dug in the ground, and raw coal was filled in it, so that it could burn slowly overnight. The structure of the pit is all studied by magicians for many years, how much raw coal can be filled, how long it can be burned, how big a camp it is suitable for, and what weather it is, all very accurately.

There are improvised tunnels underneath the camp, and the temperature is added underneath each tent.

Xia He's team pays attention to personal equipment, and at night the ground is covered with a warm blanket and a sleeping bag, so that as long as they are in the tent, they will not feel free.

Xia He saw this arrangement, and said in his heart that he should also learn, although he said that he didn't engage in this kind of thing on the side of Shenzhou. However, the high-quality individual soldier is not suitable for this world at all.

The caravan's camp was very lively, and the more people gathered next to the campfire, Xia He didn't know what they were going to do.
