Chapter 338: The Princess of Bosliga (1)
"Knock knock!"
The white wolf ran up behind Ron and slapped him on the back a few times, and Ron finally took a breath, gasping violently, and his face turned red.
"Good chance!"
Seeing that the griffin's wings were bleeding, Jack immediately issued an order directly, there was no need to mobilize, and the other crew members took out their weapons and rushed forward, although the griffin was quite troublesome to deal with, but some parts on the body were quite valuable materials.
Seeing these humans rushing over, the griffin seemed to finally realize the seriousness of the problem, and flew up directly with its wings, and the black blood spilled directly from mid-air, although the griffin flew quite hard, and the height in the air was not enough, but it was finally out of the attack range of everyone's swords.
"Catch up, don't let this brute run away. Jack said in a deep voice, "White Wolf, you take care of Mr. Ron." ”
"Don't worry, you guys go quickly! This griffin probably won't be able to fly far. ”
Jack and Sefera chased after the rest of the crew, but Sylvie hesitated and stayed.
"Ruthless enough, this spell of yours. The white wolf couldn't help but sigh.
"Well, if it weren't for your help, this griffin would have killed me. Taking a few deep breaths, Ron smiled bitterly and shrugged, "Can they get rid of this griffin?"
"Hmph, if we can't even fix a griffin with a broken wing, then we won't be in this place. As he spoke, the white wolf took the water bladder from his waist and handed it to Ron: "Drink some water, wipe your mouth, little girl, what are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and heal Mr. Ron." ”
Ron's vomiting of blood just now really made Sylvie jump, and when she heard the voice of the white wolf, Sylvie reacted, and the warm light magic instantly shrouded Ron's body.
Ron rinsed his mouth with the water in the water bladder, and drank two more sips of his stomach, only then did he feel relieved, now thinking about Ron, he was still a little afraid, if he hit not the griffin's legs, but the sharp claws, he probably wouldn't have left even a complete corpse.
"Mr. Ron, what Jack said to you, I can probably guess a little, will you go with us?" said the white wolf suddenly.
Ron glanced at the white wolf in surprise: "Mr. White Wave, are you sure what you said is one thing?"
"Of course, it should be the olive branch that Jack threw to you, are you interested, come to Wishaler to have a look?"
Ron was 100% sure of what the White Wolf was referring to, and it was indeed exactly the same as Jack's mouth, and Ron pondered for a moment about the Wieshal Revolution: "I can't be sure of the possibility of success yet, but if it is really as Mr. Jack said, I can see the hope of success, I am still very interested." ”
This is not just his business, it is very likely that he will also find the truth about the fall of the Maylis family, which is also one of the most exciting chips for Ron.
"Mr. White Wolf, are you also 100% supportive of Mr. Jack's plan?" Ron asked with a smile.
Contrary to Ron's expectations, a wry smile appeared on the white wolf's face: "What can I do if I don't support him? I don't support him to come to this hellish place, we are quite short of manpower now, Jack will invite you, and I expected it." ”
"It's too early to say this, I also have a friend who cares, Mr. White Wolf, you must understand that many times, human behavior is not affected by their own subjective consciousness. Ron said in a deep voice, "If the timing is right, I'll definitely help." ”
The white wolf nodded, seemingly satisfied with Ron's reply, "Let's go ahead and have a look, they shouldn't have gone far." Mr. Ron, how are you recovering?"
"No problem, thanks to Sylvie. Ron stood up on his feet, and the group of three chased in the direction the adventure party had left.
Before he could go far, Ron heard the griffon's scream, which reached the ears of the three of them through the layers of dense forest, but at this time, the griffin's cry no longer had the same ferocity as before, and it sounded more like a struggle before death.
"Looks like it's done. Ron whispered.
"Let's hope so, let's go faster. The white wolf's brows furrowed slightly: "The situation ahead, it doesn't seem to be so simple. ”
"What's going on?" Ron was surprised, "Didn't you kill the griffon?"
"No, it seems that some guests are coming. The white wolf directly increased the frequency of his pace and began to trot.
In the previous battle, the white wolf had already shown his super perception more than once, and Ron knew that the white wolf could not joke about it, so Ron also took Sylvie's small hand and ran quickly.
The path through the woods was littered with broken branches that had fallen from tree trunks, and black and red blood was scattered indiscriminately across the road, and the owner of the blood was undoubtedly the griffon that had been wounded by Ron.
In a clearing that was smaller than the camp where he had rested, Ron finally saw the people of the adventurer's team, and the truth was just as the white wolf said, in addition to the adventurer's team led by Jack and Sefera, there were some other humans.
The griffon had fallen in the middle of the clearing, the moonlight was shining on the clearing, the griffon's head had hung down, and the black blood had formed a terrifying pool of blood under it, the vicious beast had obviously lost its life, but the atmosphere in front of the clearing seemed to be a little solemn and awkward.
On the other side of the woods, the team was a little larger than the adventurer's team, numbering about twenty people, led by two women in black coats, both armed with swords, and the others were also wearing thick winter coats, looking at Jack's side with unkind faces.
"White Wolf, are you here?" Sefera spotted White Wolf and Ron who had arrived.
"Well, what's going on?" asked the white wolf in a low voice.
"Oh, there's a helper coming?" said a middle-aged man with a thick beard and a scar on his face on the other side of the clearing.
"Didn't you say that this griffin was your prey? I'm sorry, but this griffin was badly wounded by this magician in our adventure party, and did you see the griffin's underneath its wings? ”
Ron's status as a magician has also received the attention of these uninvited guests.
"It was the next shot that hurt me, but I also took a little bit of the injury, so I didn't rush over immediately. Ron said loudly.
"There are a lot of burn marks around the wound, are you a thunder magician?" the woman led by the leader spoke for the first time, her voice a little cold.
"Yes. Ron's eyes were also looking at this girl, even if Ron was a man of two lives, he couldn't help but be a little amazed in his heart.
Her figure is very tall, the girl's curves are perfect, at this time wrapped in thick clothes, only revealing a snow-white neck, but she also has a flavor, like Snow White in the mountains and forests, always the focus of other people's eyes. The beautiful melon seeds always have a faint smile on their faces. No matter from which aspect, the woman in front of her is the kind of woman who is very perfect, perfect and irrepromising, but maybe because she is too perfect, it makes people feel unreal, just like a porcelain doll in a dream, for fear that it will be broken if you are not careful.
Although the thick winter coat concealed the curves of her body, this did not prevent the girl in the moonlight from becoming the center of attention.
"This is the griffon, we first found it, and I wounded it with my sword, but the beast is a fast runner, and it's not our primary target. The girl spoke again, and although her face was quite feminine, her tone was very harsh: "If you are to be followed, this griffon has always been our prey. ”
"Miss, you're wrong, let me give you an analogy, if I slapped a member of your team before, but after dawn, he was killed by another person, do I have to bear the charge of murder?" Ron snorted coldly: "Of course, I don't mean to offend, I'm just talking about the matter." ”
"It's a good one. Ron's words didn't make the girl angry: "If my guess is correct, you are not locals, but adventurers from the mainland, right?"
"I don't need to hide it, I can tell it from the accent you speak. The girl's eyes stared at Ron: "As far as the matter is concerned, now that the whole island of Bosilika is under martial law, even if you are adventurers from the mainland, as people from Bosilica, we can kill you directly." ”
Ron was secretly speechless, this girl looked gentle and lovely on the outside, but she was not merciless when she spoke.
"Your Excellency is right, we are indeed adventurers from the mainland, but we have not heard of this ban, it is a little unreasonable for you to act like this, right?" Jack took a step forward and walked out of the group: " I am the leader of this adventurer team, we have no intention of clash with our friends on the island, bloodshed and casualties, neither side wants to see it, to tell you the truth, we passed through the exile camp in front of us, and came here, according to the few pieces of information we have received, the young lady should be Her Royal Highness the princess of Bosriga. ”
The girl raised her eyebrows slightly: "These thieves are not dead yet?"
Although she didn't nod, the girl acquiesced to her identity.
"Your Royal Highness Princess, if the information is correct, your target should be the ancient ruins here, right?" Jack's face regained the trademark harmless gentle smile of humans and animals: "The goal of our team was originally the ruins of the North Island-"
"Why, do you want to fight?" Jack had not finished speaking, and beside the princess, the slightly taller female guard suddenly showed the hilt of her sword under her cloak: "If you want to fight, you can accompany you at any time." ”
"No, no, Your Excellency misunderstood, I have already said before that I did not mean to offend. Jack spread his hands: "Her Royal Highness the princess is also a high-level of Bosilika Island, for so many years, although the countries on the mainland have not had direct contact with the kingdom on Naga Island, there are still a lot of adventurers and ocean merchants, this kind of exchange, both sides should be tacitly acquiesced, this point, I have no problem, right?"
The girl nodded.
"As I said before, we adventurers often travel back and forth between the two places, but the cost of this round trip is quite high, the remuneration of the crew, plus the repair of the ship, the clothes that need to be prepared on the way, water and food, these are all a lot of expenses, so we generally come to Naga Island to adventure, it is impossible to go back empty-handed, which is why we dare to hunt a beast like a griffin, and the materials on the griffin are also a lot of income. Jack smiled: "Her Royal Highness the princess needs this griffin, we can also understand, although we are laymen, but according to my guess, this kind of royal succession, the main consideration of the selection should be the standard of 'merit'." ”
"You're right, this griffon can bring good merit to my trial, you mean, let us pay you? ”
"No, Your Highness Princess, please think about it flexibly, if you spend money to hire our team, we can also be counted as your subordinates, so that the head of this griffin is also counted in your name, and we also get a reasonable payment, this deal is a win-win for us. Jack smiled: "Of course, let's go to the ruins to adventure next, we can also become your mercenaries, the strength of our team is still good, there are knights and magicians, it is quite a good configuration, we don't need the treasures in the ruins, we just need to get the right reward, Your Royal Highness the princess should consider it?"
Even Ron had to admit that Jack's words were fantastic, but they were quite convincing, and to be the heir to the throne, this princess was definitely not a fool, and in this kind of critical trial, this fearless conflict should be avoided as much as possible.
After a moment of silence, the princess of Bosliga, her gaze slowly swept over the members of the adventurer's team, especially Ron, who stayed on him for the longest time, and finally landed on Jack: "Your proposal is tempting, but I need to see your strength, and I need you to prove that you are not a waste that you can just say and can't do." ”
"Yes, how do we need to prove it?" asked Jack rhetorically.
"It's very simple, play with my men. Three wins in five games, this kind of duel point is over, try to avoid casualties, as long as you can win three wins, I will agree to you joining. The corners of the princess's mouth rose slightly: "There is only one additional condition, and that is that this magician of yours must fight."
