Volume VIII, Chapter XXIII

Carissa was not extremely surprised to learn that her own child was able to connect with the most terrible organization in the world, and no one in Osiria could better understand her child's talent than her mother. And under the premise that Flannay refused to accept the unified education of the Osirian Magical Alliance, and under the premise that the Wintington family simply did not have enough resources to train such a magician, Flannay was still able to grow at a terrifying rate, which clearly showed that he was recognized by a powerful organization. The only thing that surprised them was that he was able to get such a high position in an organization like Black Wings.

The Wintingtons were far from the Rebels, they had little to no interest in the Black Wings, and at best a negative indirect impression of the horrific methods of such an organization. Besides, the rebel organization itself is a rather mysterious organization, and the vast majority of people in Edelstan do not know about the existence of the rebel organization, and even the true situation of the Black Wing is not well known, only after the Black Wing traveled south through the Burial Heaven Mountain Range, the Black Wing became known to the whole world, and Edelstein was no exception.

In the eyes of their parents, it is undoubtedly a matter of pride for their son to be so outstanding, but at the same time, Carissa and the Marquis of Wintington are more worried about putting him in such a dangerous situation.

"I don't feel anything yet. Xue Mo replied in a low voice, not wanting to see their disappointed expressions, "The mercenaries outside are moving again." ”

Xue Mo's white clothes were embroidered with countless complicated magic circles, and although she didn't have much magical talent, she read the books of Kalisa, who was a magician, during this time. Coupled with her excellent comprehension skills, she can already be regarded as a near-professional circle carver.

A large amount of magic storage circles were drawn directly on her skin. With her powerful mana's sensitivity to magical fluctuations, she was able to even sense more precise information as a second-level mage.

The fluctuations of the breath quickly transformed into the turmoil of vocal expression. The old butler and a few of his servants hurried to the dusty window, and looked out cautiously, where the mercenary camp that had been encamped suddenly let out a burst of exclamations and shouts, and then slowly fell silent amid a majestic command.

The whispering among the mercenaries did not end, and the old butler and a few servants with better ears gently made a crack in the window and put their ears together.

“...... Xiao Long is finished! The Red City Crown has been withdrawn again, leaving us Sea Dragons alone, what is this!"

"Whose command is this, you know...... If you want to live a little longer......"

“...... Less self-conscious ......"

The only mercenary groups that really put the main force on Edelstein are the second-ranked Xiao Long Mercenary Group, the fourth-ranked Red City Crown Mercenary Group, and the sixth-ranked Sea Dragon Mercenary Group. The rest of the mercenary groups barely showed up here, and they always seemed to have other missions. And it seems to be related to the elven clan Dongdu Linhai, who has no quarrel with the world...... The old butler, though he was not young, had bright ears, so he quickly speculated on the relationship between what he had heard and what he had already known.

It seems to be ...... The mercenary group surrounding the ancestral house outside is the only one left of the Sea Dragon Mercenary Group? The other two mercenary groups seem to have suffered a serious accident, what is it?-These are no longer important, the most important thing is that the siege force outside is weakened, and the young master has a better chance of pulling them out......

At this moment, the door of the old house of Wintington was suddenly pushed open roughly, and it was dark and gloomy with cold rain outside. The damp cold that poured in blew out a few candles, but the environment here was even more oppressive.

A gust of wind swept open from the door, and the old butler, who was standing by the door, was lying on the window.

"Be careful!-" Xue Mo let out a scream, and an invisible force poured out of the circle on Xue Mo's skin. Just enough to hold the old butler with fragile bones.

"What are you doing here!" Xue Mo looked angrily at the burly middle-aged man in a leather jacket, and the resentment that had been accumulated for a long time almost poured out at this moment. Ding Kan hurriedly tugged at Xuemo's sleeve.

"Snow--Lord Semirea!Now, don't do this!-" Dinkan said in a less proficient demon language. After following Xuemo for so long, he will also be able to speak some simple demon language. He just didn't want the middle-aged man in the navy blue leather robe to understand.

The middle-aged man in the blue leather jacket looked at them indifferently. He didn't care about Xuemo's glowing chatrine eyes and the other members of the Wintington family who were also glaring at him.

"I'm Odwin, the deputy head of the Sea Dragon Mercenary Regiment. Odwin introduced himself coldly. "I'm here to tell you something, the Red City Crown and Xiao Long have left, and now I, Sea Dragon, are directly in charge of the security of this station. ”

The high-sounding explanation, Xue Mo hated to think that this was just the intention of letting the Whittington family be detained in order to threaten Francis.

"And we have determined that the Blackwing Cadre Francis already has a lot of power, and we must now use some other means to ensure your lives. ”

"Isn't it like protecting our private property?" Xue Mo suddenly sneered, "Needless to say, it's so high-sounding, don't you just want to take hostages!

The hall became silent, and Odwin, who was about to get angry, looked at the demon girl who was still wearing a childish look in surprise.

"Xiaoxue!—" Kalisa said nervously.

"They don't dare, ma'am, don't worry. Dingkan sat on the ground and said lazily to Kalisa.

Everyone in the Wintington family has their eyes set on this child, who is perhaps the youngest in terms of racial age ratio.

"Are you Semirea Bradymuon?" said Audwin, who was silent for a moment, and asked in a dark voice.

Xue Mo nodded proudly.

Audwin raised his eyebrows, pulled out a scroll in his hand, and tapped it a few times. Then he would say to it, "Captain Alec, you and Violet's men have been assembled?"

An affirmative answer came from the scroll.

Audwin nodded. Pointing out the door, "Let's go." ”

"Thank you. The Marquis of Wintington said as Snow Foam was about to leave the door. "Frannay is a blessing to all of us to know you. ”

Xue Mo's small back stiffened for a moment, and then she turned her head and called out to Ding Kan, and a demon and a dwarf disappeared into the dim rain with Odwin's figure.

The creaking sound of metal grinding echoed through the narrow underground alleyway, and for a long time, Lovien had to curl up and cover her ears, just like Dominita.

They were walking through the almost deserted underground lutetium crystal mining shafts of the Black Wings, the cobweb-like tunnels that only Francis and the Silver Mistletoe Knights who had worked here could clearly identify the familiar caverns.

The mine used to be the way Francis would go home every time he went home. He was even more familiar with the tunnel than the streets of Gear City above ground. Now there were fifty-eight of them crammed into a narrow sixty-car minecart, and they were moving northeast at a fairly fast pace. However, this driving time took more than four hours, coupled with the bumps and screeching sounds, even the well-trained Silver Mistletoe Sword Knights had many people holding the minecart and vomiting violently, Luo Weian and Dominita, who had never sat on such a thing, were no exception, and Francis was very leisurely, sitting opposite the two demons and humming a song.

Lovian summoned a water balloon and rushed it into his face, feeling a little dizzy, "Not there yet?"

Francis looked at the texture of the soil in the dim lamp. "There's still an hour. ”

Dominita huddled in the corner of the minecart, plugging her ears with a dark aura. Lovian was not much more elegant than she was. The Knights of the Silver Mistletoe, dressed in heavy silver armor, were able to adjust the shape of their armor so that the bulky-looking suits fit perfectly into the structure of the minecart, using the cushioning compartment in the armor to reduce vibration as much as possible. Luo Weian couldn't help but look envious, but Dominita didn't even have the strength to envy.

"Then I'm going to see Xuemo soon, so let's talk about my feelings. "Lovian decided to talk about something less heavy.

Francis bowed his head. Grabbing her hair, she said after a while, "She's a good girl." I love it. ”

"How does it compare to Orka?"

The "I ......" conversation is the heaviest topic for Francis at the moment. "Lord Orka—I'm still too far away from her. He sighed. Then he suddenly remembered that there was a big man sitting next to him, and he suddenly pounced, and tapped a few times at the ear of Talco, who was looking forward to it, directly sealing his hearing, Talco shouted loudly, Francis raised his eyebrows, and the warned person immediately shrank back.

"As I told you, Orka is preoccupied with Siu, and the Winged Demon Clan is unlikely to be preoccupied with an alien race. Luo Wei'an said in the tone of a bad teacher, "Being practical doesn't hurt anyone." ”

Francis flattened his mouth and didn't answer, tapping lightly on the cold minecart, Lovian smiled bitterly, and continued to observe if light began to appear in the deepest part of the mine.

An hour after Lovian's expectations were shattered by the illusion, something they had been waiting for arrived, and although it was only two very thin beams of natural light, they wanted to cry with joy after spending hours in the dark cavern.

After all, almost all the intelligent races in this world like sunlight. At the end of the tunnel, more than 50 of them could only climb up a 20-meter-high mine. Lovien and Francis, who sat at the back, could only wait for the Silver Mistletoe Knights in front of them to go up before it was their turn.

Fortunately, they did not have to wait for a long time, because it was not too close to the ancestral home of the Wintington family, and after half an hour, Lovian and Dominita finally rushed out of the tunnel that made them unbearable, and Dominita looked very happy in the dim sun bathed in rain clouds.

"Feel better now, don't you?" Lovian patted Dominita on the shoulder.

Dominita knew that the teacher was referring to the sword of silver mistletoe that killed Xiao Long's elite forces not long ago, and her little face turned white again, but she nodded vigorously.

The Silverarmoured Knights stood behind them, and Lovien looked into the distance with his eyes that were different from the Terran structure—it didn't have to be. You can see the mercenary camp scattered on the edge.

"There are a lot fewer people than in the intelligence, and there are no rules for camping. I can't speak highly of them. Lovian analyzed.

Francis's expression didn't relax much, and he pointed to the sky not far away. Lovian was startled, as far as the eye could see, a flying ship decorated entirely of silver and purple was not quickly rowing through the air, and the bulging cabin must have been filled with cargo. What surprised Lovian the most was the intense dark elemental fluctuations that flowed through the flying ship's channel.

"Blackwing's makeshift flying ship?"

"That's right. Francis squinted slightly, "There is an endless stream of comings and goings between Nanyang City and the Laiban Mine, if I succeed in hijacking these flying ships, the direct and indirect benefits should be much more valuable than the boring information in my head, and the Xiao Long Mercenary Group is afraid that this news will be known by now." Whether they are in fear or a strategic retreat, they should no longer be able to directly compete with our Silver Mistletoe Sword, which is too costly. So I judged that there must be many people in the mercenary group who turned to the flying ship, and now that the guard force of Leban is quite weak compared to before, there must be some people who can't hold back. ”

Dominita looked at her brother in surprise: "You deduced so many things, I thought only a teacher could do it!"

Francis laughed dryly, "That's right...... But even if it's a weakened guard, I don't know what the rabble can contend with. I'm thinking. Will anyone in my family become hostages when the siege weakens? What I fear most is that if I don't come out again, I'm going to cut my family and something like that."

"Relax. They didn't dare to do this, otherwise once this kind of thing was revealed, it would be difficult for the mercenary group to gain a foothold in the Terran society again. Lovian said calmly. "Follow your plan, let's go. ”

Lonely bushes finally appeared in the wilderness. This environment is not necessary and very difficult to hide yourself. Magical fluctuations were being monitored, and the terrain didn't provide much cover. Now the only indicator of their actions is speed, and the faster, the more advantageous they are.

The dark blue tent of the Sea Dragon Mercenary Regiment began to fluctuate when the silver light appeared in this lonely wilderness, and soon, in the deepest part of this undulating tent, the thick cyan manor walls of the Wintington family revealed their gray and cyan in the gaps in the flagpole, and suddenly after determining the identity of the enemy, a panic began to surge out of the blue tent.

“...... It's the Knights of the Silver Mistletoe Order...... "Panic began to appear in the Sea Dragon Mercenary Regiment, and then the panic began to spread, and the fighters rushed out of it, forming a cascading blocking formation in front of the Silver Mistletoe Sword's assault formation.

Luo Wei'an's eyes narrowed slightly, and he saw more fear in the eyes of the elite of the Sea Dragon Mercenary Group standing at the forefront. Beside Francis, the anger that had been suppressed for a long time because the family was threatened like never before began to emerge, and waves of black qi silently appeared in front of this cloud of silver light, like a silver dagger and a black blood groove.

Lovian nodded to Francis and Dominita, and then in the silver light, the black of the essence suddenly disappeared, leaving only a layer of crystal clear purple dotted on the surface of his elven-style white power suit, and the crystal green between the blades of the Doomsday Scepter in his hand was even more vivid, and his spiritual power turned into a sharp cone, pointing straight to the vague demon aura.

A purple light flashed, and Lovian vanished.

Sure enough, in the gap between the neat defensive formation and the mage's defensive enchantment in the sky, Odwin directly grabbed the back of Xuemo's neck and dragged her to the front of the formation. Ding Kan was holding him back, but with the strong strength gap, this would not affect Odwin at all.

Francis raised his hand coldly, and the fifty knights of the Silver Mistletoe behind him abruptly stopped with a huge metal roar, stopping like a metal machine, as if there was no such a costly charge as Zài before.

With his long dark green hair fluttering wantonly with the surging dark spirit, Francis stood with his hands behind his back in the background created by the silver fighter jet, and the blue-purple dark light from the essence shield on his left arm was even more eerie in the drizzle.

Xuemo hung in Odwin's hand, smiled brightly at Francis, and waved his hand. The corners of Francis's mouth twitched.

"Let's have something to say, everyone's impulsiveness is not good for anyone. Audwin said coldly, shaking the snow foam in his hand that looked like a puppet, and the snow foam kicked Odwin's heavy armor with her leg in annoyance, but it obviously had no effect.

Francis stared at a dagger in Odwin's left hand that was pointed at Xuemo's chest, and didn't reply. The expression was neither angry nor nervous, just a kind of indifference that could freeze the air.

Then Odwin's eyes suddenly bloomed, and there was a strong breath - not elemental fluctuations, but an innate suppression of the lower human race by a high-ranking person of life. However, Odwin, who had already reached the fourth level of strength, barely took time to offset this pressure, but at this time, he was surprised that he had lost time.

Lovian's long pure white hair flew behind him like a blizzard, a pair of golden eyes flashed red, and in his right hand, a longsword with a green light was rapidly enlarged.

He had only had time to see it, and his brain had stopped working before it could react to the sight in front of him.

The glowing green light dissipated, and in the center of Odwin's shocked eyes, an inch-sized cross of blood appeared on the center of his eyebrows, directly through his brain, obliterating his vitality.

Lovien gracefully raised his hand and let the Doomsday Scepter, which had circled in the sky, fall back into his hand. Odwin was still in his previous position, and Snow Foam was still hanging in his hand. She looked at her unrelated father in amazement, as his long hair, which was snow-white enough to hide him, gradually turned a familiar burgundy red as the dark elements returned.

Xuemo struggled a few times and fell, kicking away Dingkan, who was still holding Odwin's calf.

"Hi Dad. Xue Mo crossed her waist and greeted with an inexplicable sense of victory.

"Hmm. Lovian straightened his hair with the Doomsday Scepter, not caring at all about the mercenaries of the Sea Dragon Mercenary Regiment who were already sluggish around him, "And you Dingkan, it's time to move, get ready." (To be continued......)
