Chapter 51 Assault
The carriage traveled through Leo's torment, and it took them three days and two nights to get out of the kingdom of Butendan, where the Elemental Garden was located, which made Leo determined to learn flying sorcery after being promoted to a mid-level wizard apprentice.
Joanna gradually lost the intention of testing Leo's heart, and as she got farther and farther away from the academy, her words gradually became less and less, and Pamela, who was shy and didn't talk much, couldn't hear her at all along the way.
The long-term contact made Leo guess the relationship between the two, to put it bluntly, the two are a pair of 'Lala', better to hear that it is called Lily, Leo should not know about this, meditating on his own, and responding to a few questions from Joanna from time to time.
"Master Mage, there is a jungle of Banans in front, and it is very dangerous to walk at night, can you stay in Banan Village for one night tonight, and then we will set off tomorrow?"
"The hairy rats of the Barnanth Jungle are the most disgusting magical creatures in the world, and luckily most of them are nocturnal, so we'll be here tonight. Joanna made a decision directly, without asking Leo at all.
Leo only smiled bitterly when he heard this, it was like he was in a hurry, he was just playing in the mountains and rivers, and he was almost sleeping in the wilderness and a bonfire, which made him quite unhappy when he wanted to reach Nota City as soon as possible.
The hairy rat of the Barnans Jungle, of course Leo knew about this magical creature, it was a rat-like creature that resembled a piglet, covered in black hair.
During the day, long-haired rats generally hide in their holes**, and at night they will come out and lie quietly in the jungle without moving, and when a creature approaches their attack range, their long-haired body will shoot at each other like sharp arrows.
The long hair of the long-haired rat often carries all kinds of strange powers, such as corrosion, poisoning, coma, sluggishness, etc., the effect is not strong but it is particularly disgusting.
The knights of the kingdom suffered a lot of losses, and the mages were not interested in this magical creature that was not even a junior mage apprentice, which caused this group of hairy rats to live in the jungle of Bananth.
After hearing the consent of the mage, the coachman Amo consciously went to find a hotel and arrange accommodation, as long as he served a few mages, he would get more than the fare.
'Maria's Foot Shop' is the only hotel in Banan Village, and Leo threw it away and asked for three upper rooms.
Leo took the initiative to pay, and Joanna said as a matter of course: "Senior Brother Leo, the silver ears are all one by one, why are you either a piece or a lump." Joanna had wanted to ask about this for a long time.
Leo shrugged, "I usually practice my hands when I'm fine, after all, I'm also a junior knight, and my strength will always be rusty if I don't use it for a long time." "These gold and silver coins were all looted in the Pirate Islands, and they were all marked by the Western Continent, and Leo just wanted to make less trouble.
Joanna was dismissive of Leo's explanation, and the good birth made her understand that these things were obviously unsightly, and she didn't say anything, dropping the sentence "Call us at dinner." He took Pamela and went into the room.
Leo and his party were not the only ones in the shop, there were already more than a dozen people dining in the store when they came, and these people sat at a table in twos and threes, many of them dressed as knights.
The appearance of the two mage apprentices surprised them for a moment, and one of the tables was obviously two people dressed as merchants, who hurriedly ate two bites and went upstairs, apparently trying to make room for Leo and them.
After a night of silence, the next day a few people started to go on the road after breakfast, and Leo's keen observation found that Joanna's expression was quite satisfied, and Pamela's expression was a little sluggish, how could Leo not understand what was going on...... this.
The trees in the Banans Jungle are few and not high, and the most growing here is bushes, and a road that is not wide can only allow a carriage to move forward, and Leo tenses his nerves when he enters the place.
"Master Mage, it's the day when those hairy rats are hiding in their holes and won't come out. Although Leo is dressed as a knight, the conversations of several people all show his identity, and Amoco, who is not a stupid person, will not look at Leo with the eyes of a knight.
Having said that, Leo had always believed in hearing and was unwilling to sit in the carriage to tempt Joanna, so he sat next to Amo on the pretext of protecting the coachman and the horses.
There were more than a dozen people in the distance behind the carriage, these people were the same people who stayed in the hotel last night, and following them at this time was nothing more than to make it convenient, although the hairy rats would not appear during the day, but what if?
Leo sat in front of the car and looked left and right from time to time, which made those who didn't know think that he was a dutiful guard.
Suddenly, there was a sound of banging on the partition in the carriage.
"What's the matter?" asked Leo in a deep voice.
"Stop the car, we have something to take care of. Joanna's voice came from inside the car.
"Trouble. Leo let out a low sigh, the reason he was reluctant to go on the road with the two of them in the first place was that there were so many unpredictable trifles that it would take him to know what Joanna was trying to do.
The carriage stopped, and the people who followed in the distance stopped even though they didn't know what was going on, and Joanna and the two girls got out of the carriage and walked towards the depths of the jungle on one side without looking at Leo.
Leo was a little bored and photographed some plants, his god space can photograph everything in reality, but the imprint human beings can't even photograph a knight except ordinary people, he guesses that this is probably because of his own low mental power.
Just as Leo was paying attention to his surroundings while photographing the plants, he suddenly noticed that there were less than a dozen people in the crowd following behind, and only five people were still on the scene, and he frowned when he was already suspicious.
"Could it be that some of these people have suddenly returned?" was Leo thinking.
"Who?" Joanna screamed with anger, and then the magic factor began to fluctuate violently.
Leo jumped out of the carriage and was about to question Joanna, when the men behind him rushed towards him with their weapons in hand, as if they had received some kind of signal.
"Sacrifice, double the strength!"
The previous person was holding a double axe, and after a loud shout, his feet slammed on the ground, jumped eight or nine meters in the air, and rushed towards him head-on.
Sacrificing knights?
Leo lowered his longbow to his shoulder, instantly completed the action of pulling the bow and arrows, and shot an arrow at the man in the air.
The sound of arrows hitting the flesh sounded, but the man in the air did not fall as Leo had imagined, but rushed towards him with a sinister smile on his face.
'Did you catch the arrow with your strength?' Leo somewhat understood, the sacrificial knight had obviously used some kind of secret technique, which doubled his strength in an instant.
"Electric batons!"
A flash of light shot out of Leo's hand, striking him instantly in the man's terrified eyes, and he couldn't understand how a valiant knight could suddenly become a mage.
"Poof" The blackened and smoking corpse landed at Leo's feet.
"Snake, go"
Leo threw out a crackling electric ball and flew towards the four people behind him, and instead of running away when they saw Leo use the first spell, the four rushed towards him at an accelerated pace.
"Heroic, Swift Step!"
"Humility, Dunbu!"
......
Against a valiant knight, they thought that the sacrificial knight alone would be enough, but they didn't expect that person to turn into a mage in a blink of an eye, which caught them off guard.
In the face of the 'crackling' electric ball thrown by Leo, they didn't know who they were going to attack, and they all burst out of their secret skills, scattering and hurrying towards each other.
As soon as the electric ball flew out of five or six meters, it suddenly split, forming four small electric snakes and rushing towards the four people, and the four people used their own means to block, hit, or dodge all to avoid the attack of the electric snake.
They thought that the danger had passed, and were about to rush to Leo's side at a speed, but suddenly the sharp pain and paralysis from behind them caused them to fall to the ground.
Spells can be manipulated with mental power, so how can they hide from them.
The split of the electric ball into four paths reduced the strength of the original attack, and it did not allow them to die at once, and the honest knight stood up with his strong physique.
"Trouble. Leo muttered, his eyes closed.
"Flash Erosion!"
An extremely high light suddenly appeared, and several people who were already nervously watching the battlefield suddenly lost their light, and when they reacted, there was a feeling of soreness, numbness, itchiness and pain on their bodies.......
"Uncle Amo, you take the carriage back to Banan Village and wait for me, I didn't come to you after two months, you go back to Deba City by yourself. With that, Leo threw over a piece of golden ears and walked towards the depths of the jungle, not caring about the coachman who was cowering under the carriage.
