Chapter 139: Firebird Mercenary Group
I fought too hard two days ago, but now my neck is so sore, I can't break out, I have to slow down
Chapter 139
In the early morning, at the edge of a dense forest, in the thick white mist, a man and a tiger suddenly rushed out of the fog. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"It's finally out!" roared the white tiger, "Neil, I think we'd better think of something else." Otherwise, it is a question whether we can get to the south or not. β
Neil nodded, fiddling with the map in his hand, and said, "yes, damn boss, there is nothing wrong with saying that this map is the most precious map." It cost me ten gold coins, and it's all! What the hell is the drawing?! I can't understand it at all!"
Xiaobai also nodded and said, "That's it!"
The corners of Neil's mouth twitched, although every time he got lost, Xiaobai would put the blame on Neil. However, if Xiaobai is not a super road idiot like Neil, they will not get lost every time.
Neil looked at the map in his hand and thought about a solution. For his sense of direction, Neil is also convinced. Of course, he knew that the map in his hand would not be a problem, but he really had nothing to do except be able to roughly know the south, south, west, and north!
"Well, we should be here! Well, that's right! Half a day's walk to the east, we'll reach a marquis city, which should be no smaller. Let's see if there is a mercenary group in the south, and if we act with the mercenary group, we shouldn't get lost. β
Xiao Bai ran wildly and asked in a thick questioning tone, "Are you sure you read it right?!"
"Well, you can't go wrong!"
"You said that last time, last time, last time, and γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» last timeγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»"

Half a day later, a wasteland with nothing but dead grass and stones.
Xiaobai lay in the shadow of a boulder and said slowly: "Sure enough, it's like this again!"
Neil pretended not to hear Xiaobai's words and looked intently at the map in his hand.
"You don't need to read it!
Neil immediately argued, "Nonsense! Occasionally, luck comes, and I can still understand it! Just like that time in the Abyss Plane!"
Xiaobai yawned and said, "Okay, don't brag! I haven't seen it with my own eyes! Besides, are you sure you led the way? Hmph, I don't know you yet? Neil Kid!?"
Neil touched his head in embarrassment and sighed, he couldn't imagine the peak moment of his life, Xiaobai didn't believe it.
"Neil, someone's coming, hundreds. Xiaobai slowly shrunk and hid in Neil's arms.
Neil also heard the sound of hooves hitting the ground, slowly approaching from a distance. Neil straightened his robes and waited for the team to arrive in the distance.
By the wayside, Neil finally changed out of the academy robe he had worn for nearly four years. In fact, Neil didn't really want to change it, the quality of that robe was very good, and it also had its own cleaning magic, so that Neil was already used to living without a bath.
However, in order to avoid the minions of Aveney's crazy woman, Neil naturally couldn't run around wearing the Charles Imperial School of Magic robe, but changed into an ordinary robe, which is very much in line with Neil's current identity - a down-and-out aristocratic intermediate magician.
Eventually, Neil began to see the team clearly.
Before the large army arrived, a warrior who was supposed to be a scout came to Neil on a wind wolf.
"Who are you?!"
Neil was accustomed to these thick men who were mercenaries, and said politely: "Your Excellency, good day, I am a mage, I want to go to the south, I don't know if Your Excellency will stop by and take me to the nearest town." Of course, I can get paid!"
Looking at Neil's aristocratic etiquette, the warrior was stunned, then looked at Neil's outfit and said with a smile: "It turns out that you are still a nobleman?"
Neil's eyes showed a deep sadness, and he said: "It's just a small nobleman, my territory was seized by those big nobles, and I managed to escape with a life." The nobleman I offended was so powerful that I wanted to flee to the south. β
The warrior looked at the emaciated Neil, with a hint of pity in his eyes compared to him, and said, "Actually, we are also going to Nansha City in the southern part of the Empire. Come with me, I'll ask the head of the regiment to see if I can take you!"
Neil hurriedly thanked, "Thank you, Your Excellency! My name is Guras!"
"My name is Gast!
Gast and Neil rode slowly towards the group, riding the same wind wolf.
"Boy, look, that's our leader!
Following Gast's hand, Neil saw the man Gast was referring to.
Dressed in fiery red armor, the fiery figure is revealed at a glance. Coupled with that fiery red hair, the whole person of the regiment leader looks like a flame burning in the wilderness!
"Commander, this guy is γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»" Gast recounted Neil's condition to the Commander, and finally, he asked, "I wonder what the Captain thinks?"
The beautiful regiment commander nodded and said, "Let him go to the back of the van." β
"Yes, Commander!" said Gast, as he was told. With that, he walked to the back of the line with Neil.
At this time, Neil found that there were more than twenty cars driving at the back of the team. Moreover, the warriors who were guarding the sides of the car were obviously not in the same team as Gast. Because, those guys were wearing exquisite standard armor, and the patterns on the armor made Neil feel familiar, but for a moment he couldn't remember what kind of family crest it was.
"Alright, you can go inside, this car is full of our usual tools, you can just take a moment, my noble young master. Gast laughed.
"Your Excellency, don't laugh at me, I'm already very grateful to be able to take me, how can I be picky!" Neil said quickly.
"Hahahaha! You have a good rest, the distance from here to Nansha City is not close! By the way, you must not disturb those cars in front of you! I heard them say that there seems to be some kind of powerful person in there! If you provoke those people, you will be finished!" Gast instructed.
Neil nodded and said, "Don't worry, Your Excellency, I'm sure I won't get into trouble!
"That's good! That's good!" said Gast, and he left.
Neil surveyed the environment inside the car and saw that it was full of armor weapons and other tools.
Neil found a spacious place, took out the book of the "Secret Book of Elves" that the tree elder had given him, and slowly studied it.
