The United Emirate of the Western Desert, located in the middle of the Western Continent, is a joint country composed of more than a dozen large and small tribes, although a tribe will be elected every ten years as the leader of all the tribes, but after all, there is a gap between the tribes and the tribes, and it is extremely inconvenient to govern.

If it weren't for the fact that the Western Desert Desert is not a good place, then the United Emirate of the Western Desert would have been destroyed by the surrounding countries long ago.

Above the desert, a caravan was slowly advancing, and the camel bells shook in the wind, breaking the silence of the caravan.

Dressed in a white robe, Al sat on a camel in the back, with a small shed above his head to block the sun, looking at the books in his hand under the shed, although he felt extremely stuffy, but compared to those camel team members who walked on their own two legs, Al was really treated countless times better.

A week ago, Al got the details of several wizarding organizations from Esso the Clown, and after a little rest for a day, he hit the road, and Al paid some gold to follow the current caravan out of the Holy Sword City, leaving the Holy Sword Empire, and driving straight into the Western Desert.

As a neighbor of the Holy Sword Empire, the United Emirate of the Western Desert is completely different from the Holy Sword Empire, and it does not have the existence of hundreds of millions of Glorious Lord Churches in its country, but has another kind of belief in ancestors and totems.

Without the existence of the Church of the Lord of Radiance, the United Desert Emirate not only did not resist the existence of wizards, but was in the territory of the United Desert Emirate. Wizards have a transcendent status.

However, due to the habit of concealing his identity as a wizard apprentice in the Holy Sword Empire. Therefore, even when he came to the territory of the United Desert Emirates, El did not immediately reveal his identity as a wizard apprentice.

The caravan slowly stopped. Al looked up at the caravan members who were gradually dispersed to prepare lunch, closed the books in his hand, and jumped off the camel that was slowly kneeling.

Stretching his waist, Al was not afraid of the heat, and sat directly on the sand, and after some time, a man from the camel team came over, handed Al a water bladder and two pieces of bread, and then turned away from Al's side.

Looking at the bread in his hand, Al was not very particular. He took a bite of the rather hard dough and poured his saliva into it, but he ate it sweetly, not caring at all about the smell of meat coming from the men and the caravan leader.

With the physical fitness of a bloodline knight, Al solved the bread and water in his hands in three or two, and then covered his eyes with the book in his arms, and lay down directly on the desert to rest.

I don't know how long it took, Al felt the book blocking his eyes be touched, and opened his eyes and sat up.

Suddenly, a child about thirteen or fourteen years old was startled by Al. He took two steps back, didn't have his balance right, and sat on the sand, but he jumped up because of the heat of the sand. Covering his ass and hissing.

Looking at the kid in front of him who was bouncing around with his buttocks, Al showed a smile for the first time in a long time and shook his head slightly. said, "Boy, why did you touch my book just now?"

Hear Al's words. The thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy lifted the white turban on his head and said, "I'm sorry, sir. I was just...... I'm just a little curious because I haven't read the book, so I ......"

Seeing the little boy squirming, Al thought for a moment and handed the book to the little boy.

Taking the book handed by Al, the little boy looked at the title on the cover and read it word by word: "He, Er, history, poetry...... Sir, is this a chivalric novel?"

Nodding slightly, Al made a gesture of please, and the little boy began to look at it again.

Looking down at the little boy looking down at the book, Al smiled slightly, then turned his head and began to enjoy the rare desert scenery around him.

However, before Al could enjoy it for long, he suddenly heard an exclamation from the little boy.

"Sir, sir, a small part of this page is blackened, and the text is gone, I, I must be in trouble. ”

Hearing the little boy's words, Al subconsciously wanted to smile at the little boy and say something to comfort him, but at this moment, Al suddenly reacted to something, he reached out and took back the "Epic of Hull" and began to look at the blackened place on it, and sure enough, as Al expected, this suddenly blackened place was indeed part of the hidden black page of the "Epic of Hull"!

Seeing the signs of the black pages, Al immediately began to think about the difference between this time and the previous one, and after thinking for a long time, Al suddenly found that when he watched "The Epic of Hull" before, he had never completely exposed the pages of "The Epic of Hull" to the sun, and basically studied it in the house late at night, even if he studied the "Epic of Hull" on a camel just now, he watched it in the shadow of the shed, so it is no wonder that he did not find anything before.

Thinking of this, Al raised his head and looked at the little boy in front of him, who was still a little ignorant and nervous, he reached out and touched the other party's head, and then said, "Boy, you have done me a great favor, tell me what reward you want." ”

Hearing that Al not only didn't blame himself, but also rewarded himself, the little boy suddenly showed a relaxed smile and said, "Actually...... Actually, my mother was seriously ill, so my father and I would come out to help the caravan, but we didn't earn much, so we ...... So if you can, I don't know if you can give me some money, sir.

No, it doesn't take much, a gold coin...... No, five, three silver coins will do, three will do. ”

The little boy looked at Al who was looking at him with a smile, pursed his lips, and whispered, "Or...... Either a silver coin would be enough, it would be enough. ”

Shaking his head slightly, Al put his hand into his chest, took out a small cloth bag and threw it to the little boy, and then whispered, "You must hide it, don't be seen by those people, and secretly put it up for your father." ”

Hearing Al's words, the little boy subconsciously took the small cloth bag, and then opened it, and suddenly the little boy gasped, looked at Al in surprise, his lips trembled, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't say a word.

Ten gold coins, a full ten gold coins, for a family like theirs, this money is definitely a huge amount of money, not only can heal the little boy's mother, but also can be used to make some small business, if used properly, at least in the future, there is no need to worry about not being able to eat!

Looking at the little boy's appearance, Al nodded to him and said, "Take it, remember to keep it secret." ”

After confirming that the money was indeed for himself, the little boy smiled brightly, and then ran to a middle-aged man sitting on the edge of the camel caravan and whispered something.

The rest of the matter had nothing to do with El, and he withdrew his gaze and focused on the Epic of Hull in his hand.

Under the sunlight, Al searched page by page, and finally found twelve pages with different reactions, and tore off the twelve pages one after another and put them together, and suddenly the twelve pages that were put together spontaneously ignited without fire.

It's normal for flammable materials in the desert to spontaneously combust without fire, so even though they saw the light of the El's fire, they didn't look at it.

Looking at the flames in front of him, Al didn't make any moves, but waited for the twelve pages to burn.

Sure enough, after the twelve pages were burned, twelve black page fragments appeared on the sand, looking at these twelve page fragments, even in the sunlight, Al felt a cold current surging up his back, as if he was in a cold ice and snow world.

Without immediately piecing together the black page, Al tore a piece of white cloth from his white robe, wrapped the fragments of the black page, and placed it in the space bag in his arms.

With this done, Al was about to take out the wizard's codex called the Secret Book of Illusions to look at it, but at this moment, Al suddenly heard a somewhat familiar cry not far away.

Frowning and looking in the direction of the cry, he suddenly saw that the kid before was holding the small bag he gave him, and there was another hand on the bag, and the owner of the hand was punching the kid's back, looking at his appearance, it was obvious that it could not be the kid's father.

Although he didn't know what had happened, Al could basically guess it, his eyes were micron, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he took out a finger-sized knife from his waist and threw it away.

"Ahh

With a scream, the man grabbed the little boy's wrist and there was an extra knife, he directly let go of his hand, and the other hand grabbed the knife on his wrist and wanted to pull it out, but because the knife was too small to focus on, he couldn't pull it out at all.

At this time, the man's encounter gradually made the people of the camel caravan surround him, and in the face of his companions and strange travelers, these people in the camel caravan naturally did not hesitate to choose.

Looking at the members of the caravan who gradually gathered around, Al smiled disdainfully, and then said: "If you want to find death, then I will not hesitate to fulfill you, but considering that I still need some people to pass through the desert, I will give you a chance, and I can still treat it as if I didn't see it now, otherwise, what will happen to you in a while, you can only bear it yourself." ”
