It's a silent wilderness, and further west you will enter the war-torn free city-state area, and it is already night, Christine has built a campfire in a dry area, the flames are crackling, Christine is holding her pet Drapania in her arms, her eyes are slightly moist. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Dra...... Where should we go......" Christine gently stroked Drafania's hair and said softly, in fact, she had thought about going to the Free Frontier, but she lacked the courage, as a master assassin who killed people without blinking, Christine lacked the courage to move forward at this time.

"Meow!"

Drafania bit Christine's finger, Christine looked at Drafania's cute appearance, and there was a burst of warmth in her heart, Drafania can be said to be her only partner.

Christine prepared some food for Drafania, Drafania ate the food happily, Christine was on the sidelines, quietly watching it, as long as Drafania was around, Christine would not feel lonely.

"Meow!"

After Drafania finished eating, she screamed with satisfaction, Christine smiled slightly, Drafania walked around the campfire, looking very lively, Christine rarely summoned Drafania during the day recently, and only at night, would she summon Drafania to accompany her through the lonely night, so at this time, Christine let Drafania play over there.

"Meow!"

Drafania, who had been playing on the sidelines, seemed to have noticed something, it straightened up, and suddenly its hair stood on end, and Drafania was letting out a warning roar into the depths of the woods.

"Della?"

Christine also noticed that something was going on, she hurriedly picked up her weapon, and began to beckon Drafania to come back, but Drafania was still watching the depths of the forest vigilantly, Christine felt bad, she hurriedly grabbed the bracelet, and wanted to summon Drafania back.

"Whoosh!"

One arrow was fired first, followed by several more arrows.

"Meow!"

Before Christine could recall Drafania, Drafania had already been hit by two arrows, and it screamed in pain and fell to the ground, motionless.

"Oh no!

Christine screamed in pain, only to see Drafania gradually, her body began to blur, and within a few seconds, it gradually disappeared again.

"Whoosh!"

While Christine's attention was focused on Drapania, another arrow was fired at Christine, and Christine was about to realize that she was too late to dodge, so she hurriedly blocked it with a dagger.

With tears in her eyes, Christine looked coldly into the woods, and from there, several robber-like men and two ogres came out.

"This girl is good, but fortunately we didn't hurt her!" said one of the robbers.

"Stupid! Don't you see what she's up to! This woman is not an ordinary person, let's kill her. Another robber roared.

"Delicious woman, delicious!" an ogre chimed in.

From beginning to end, Christine didn't say a word, she just looked at these people with cold eyes, anger already filling her body.

"There are so many of us here, I advise you that this woman should surrender obediently, go back to the cottage with us, and have a good life for you in the future." One of the robbers said cautiously.

"I'm going to kill you all. Christine said coldly.

"You ......"

Before a robber could finish speaking, Christine had already rushed to him, he was stunned, his throat had been cut by Christine's dagger, blood gushed out like a spring, the robber clutched his throat in pain, fell to the ground in pain, and died in pain.

The rest of the robbers and ogres panicked when they saw Christine doing this, they didn't dare to be careless, slowly surrounded Christine, and then attacked Christine together in one of the powerful roars.

But what a skill Christine is, these robbers can't hurt her at all, not to mention that Christine is now bent on killing them all, so her offensive seems even more aggressive.

In an instant, Christine cut down several more robbers, and an ogre roared angrily and pulled out a huge wooden stick at her, but Christine was very sensitive to dodge the blow, she flashed sideways, and went around behind the ogre, and then Christine pressed down and hit the ogre's heels with two daggers, and the ogre immediately fell in pain, and Christine quickly followed, and the ogre was killed with a sword twist.

The other ogre roared angrily and pounced, Christine did not flinch, she rushed straight ahead, ignoring the large wooden stick that came at her, the big wooden stick slashed past her, but it did not hurt her, and Christine's curved sword hit the ogre's head, and the second ogre was also killed by Christine.

Seeing this, the rest of the robbers began to flee separately, but Christine's purpose was to kill them all, and Christine threw several throwing knives one after another, and all the robbers fell to the ground.

At this time, there were already corpses all over the place, but Christine didn't care about it, she collapsed on the ground sadly, Christine raised her left hand, she rubbed her summoning bracelet vigorously, hoping to summon Drafania here, but Drafania showed no signs of appearing.

"Della!"

Christine screamed, she covered her head between her arms, hugged her knees, sat on the ground and cried bitterly, Drafania was her best friend, now, Christine even lost Drafania, she felt lonely at this time, she was only one person now, Christine even lost the motivation to live, she raised the dagger, stared at it, the dagger slowly moved towards her throat, but she still stopped the dagger, because she thought of her sister, her only relative in this world...... Christine swore that she would be released......

"It's good that you stopped suicidal behavior. ”

A loud and majestic voice came, Christine hurriedly stood up, grasped the weapon, she saw an extraordinary majestic lion orc coming out of the depths of the woods, this lion orc was tall, the aura was very powerful, Christine felt that this person was extraordinary.

"Who are you, the bandits' companion?" asked Christine sharply.

"I'm the enemy of those bandits, isn't there an old saying, the enemy of the enemy is the partner, so I think the two of us can be partners for the time being. The lion orc said loudly, which made Christine frown, she didn't trust the lion orc in front of her.

"My name is Ares, and many people who know me call me the Beastmaster, and I came to the south from the snowy regions of the far north. This lion orc calls himself the beastmaster Ares, and Christine feels that the title of the beastmaster suits him very well, because this lion orc really has the domineering spirit of a king.

"You've just seen what happened on my side, and what is your purpose?" Christine was not frightened by Ares's aura, she said coldly, Christine's response did not annoy Ares, but won him an appreciative smile.

"Let me tell you something that symbolizes friendliness first, so that we can work better together. Ares's voice was still very high-pitched, and Christine really didn't feel hostile from him for the time being.

"What do you want to say?" asked Christine softly.

"That demon pet of yours, if it is not dead, the demon pet will not die, if they are fatally injured in the main material realm, they will retreat to the independent plane, and they will generally be fatally injured, you will not be able to summon it for another three to five days, and after it heals itself, you can summon it again. Ares said that the news made Christine's eyes light up, and it was indeed good news for her.

"What do you mean...... Really?" said Christine, slightly excited.

"I have no reason to lie to you!" Ares shouted.

"Great!" Christine relieved herself, and her smile couldn't help but flow.

"But the pain it suffered, that's real, so don't let your pet suffer such fatal injuries in the future. Ares reminded again, and Christine nodded appreciatively.

"Okay, so what do you want me to do for you?" Christine put away her happy expression, she began to focus on what was in front of her, and seeing Christine recover so quickly, Ares nodded in satisfaction.

"I had a cooperation with that group of robbers not long ago, but they cheated me very badly, I want to make them pay a terrible price, I want to get my reward back at the same time, kill them all, I will waste some effort to do these things alone, if you have the help of this skilled lady, I think it will be a lot easier. Ares didn't hide it and answered Christine's questions truthfully.

"So, you used to be one of those people's buddies?" Christine said with a sneer.

"Girl, remember, there are no eternal friends or enemies in this world, only eternal interests drive us to make the right choice!" Ares said loudly, Christine empathized with this sentence, and Christine smiled.

"Well, I promise you, I want those bastards to die too, and even if my Della doesn't die, I can't spare them. Christine said fiercely, and Ares nodded with satisfaction, this temporary partner, he felt that he had not made a mistake.

Christine and Ares were both resolute people, and they did not hesitate to start the operation, and Ares led Christine to the bandits' camp in the mountains.

The two men had a clear division of labor, Ares feigned a surprise attack head-on, while Christine slipped away somewhere else and cautiously infiltrated the cottage.

The robbers gathered almost all their strength to stop Ares at the main entrance, and in the eyes of Ares and Christine, the bandits were all stupid, and Ares alone could make them unguarded.

But Ares really needs Christine's help, because he alone storms the gate of the cottage from the front, which is not so easy to break, and Christine takes advantage of this to enter the interior of the cottage and directly find the bandit leader of the cottage, and then slit his throat.

After Christine killed the bandit leader, she began to light fires all over the cottage, which caused chaos among the robbers in the cottage, and Ares broke through the gate.

Christine and Ares worked together to fulfill the promise they had made before, and in the entire cottage, none of the robbers could leave alive, and Christine and Ares killed people, it was really ruthless, and both of them admired each other's strong combat power.

After slaughtering the robbers, Ares went to the thieves' treasure trove, which was not on fire, and there was a lot of gold here, and Ares gave half of it to Christine, but Christine just smiled and shook her head.

"Thank you for your kindness, Beastmaster, but I'm not in the fugitive stage now, and it's not suitable to carry so much treasure with me, and even more so if I want to go west, I have to pass through the war-torn free city-state, and it's not suitable to carry a lot of treasure with me. Christine smiled and said truthfully.

"Okay, you can bring some gold coins with you for easy use, and I'll keep the rest of the treasure for you for the time being, but when you have a place to stay, I'll send it to you." Ares exclaimed.

Christine smiled again, she knew that with Ares's arrogant personality, these were very serious promises, and Kristen and Ares were both happy people, so Christine didn't shirk either.

Christine put away some gold coins that she could carry with her, said goodbye to Ares, and left the cottage, the road ahead is still very long, and although Christine does not have a clear goal at this time, people always have to survive, not to mention Christine, and hopes to be able to rescue her sister in the future......
