The battle had been going on for half an hour, and it stands to reason that Tifa should have come over a long time ago. As long as she can find the mage who casts the enchantment, interfere with ....... slightly.

But now, I didn't even see her shadow. Because of the barrier, I couldn't even sense her location accurately.

The original purpose was to make a big fuss, so that the nobles would not have the energy to divert Yani, Sirika and the others.

But that's not what I want.

For the first time, I realized that I was underestimating these nobles.

Thinking about all the possibilities, the more anxious I was, the more calm my expression became.

It's like everything is under control.

Even with a fanged mask, I couldn't show the worry I had. Otherwise.......

"Are you sure you're still fighting me?"

Deliberately keep the voice low, and the voice becomes thick. With an inadvertent movement, he raised the giant sword in his hand.

"Or might you like to join forces with me?" "Anyway, those people don't see you as teammates!"

As I spoke, I glanced down at the mage floating in the air. It seems that the other party has no intention of stopping, but the other party's magic level is not too high. The falling fire magic is a bit like a hail rain in summer.

There was a crackling sound on the semicircular magic barrier.

Compared to this group of cavalry, the surviving civilians are all inclined to my side. After all, instead of promising or something, I gave them shelter.

Although it is only a matter of time before this place is breached, it is for the people who can live a moment longer. As long as they don't anger the weirdo in front of them, maybe they can survive until they get out alive.

"Hey, can you make sure we're all out alive?" asked Nisben.

His words also expressed the doubts of all the mercenaries present.

Why did the old lady give you this promise. said angrily,

"I'm sorry, but everyone has a life. It's up to you whether you can get out or not. "If you meet an employer like that, you can only count yourself unlucky. ”

In the middle of this conversation, a new situation occurred on the other side. The mage in the air changed the direction of his attack, and all his directional skills were directed towards the tight oxcart of the pack.

Every time the magician attacked, an oxcart floated up and rushed towards us.

It's like a warning, a reminder to do it here.

The helpless roar of the ploughing ox writhed and drifted in this direction, not knowing what would greet it in the next moment. It's just that the animal's instinct tells it, dangerous, dangerous, dangerous.

"Boom!"

Just in mid-air more than ten meters away from the people, magical flames fell on the ox cart. At the moment of the explosion, everyone instinctively turned around and hugged their heads.

The white light engulfed everything, and this was the scene that everyone saw at the last moment. They thought they were going to die this time.

But.......

When I opened my eyes again, I found that I was still alive. Everyone reached out and touched their limbs, and some even slapped themselves to make sure that it wasn't a dream.

At this time, everyone focused on the situation around them.

The fog from the melting of the ice wall was blown away in an instant, and the beard, which had always been sleepy-eyed, stood in a peculiar posture.

I was the only one who could see the man's movements. At the moment of the explosion, the man's hazy eyes suddenly opened. Lift your gun and press the tip of your gun against the ice wall.

It was kind of like a coating, and in an instant it enveloped the ice wall from the outside.

"Ahem....... ”

The beard spat out a mouthful of blood, and the red blood stained his beard red in an instant.

"Dawson, are you alright?"

Nisben on the side hurriedly rushed over and held his old partner.

"Well! ”

Dawson wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand and turned his head to look at me,

"I don't know what you have to do with the nobles here, and I don't want to know. "I just wanted to make sure, if I work with you. "If they survive, you can let them go. ”

Dawson seemed to have a hard time speaking, pausing for long moments for each sentence.

"Have you forgotten what we are, old man?" "Mercenaries!" "We also have our own professional rules, which is to never betray our employers. "Have you forgotten?"

No one thought that the most timid and cowardly teenager would be the first to come out against it.

I looked at the bearded man quietly and did not rush to say yes. I just looked at him quietly, and the vicissitudes of life on my face told me that this was a man with a story.

Especially the skill he had just used, which was a skill that only paladins of the Church possessed.

Judging from his situation, the impact of the explosion was borne by him alone. Therefore, the injury is definitely not light.

I'm thinking about weighing whether to ...... or not.

"If you promise to cooperate, in return I will tell you a secret. ”

Secret?
