Chapter 3: Doubts
The so-called Mandate of Heaven is the power that mortals are born with, or possess through ancient artifacts, that originally belonged to the twelve gods. You don't need to cast a spell to quickly use many powerful abilities, such as summoning a storm or burning fire on the blade. Since the mandate of heaven comes from different gods, there is also a relationship between each other. Therefore, no matter how strong you are, you must be extremely cautious when facing an opponent who holds the Mandate of Heaven, if your ability is defeated by your opponent, then even if you are a great hero, you may be easily killed by a child with no name.
This is the daily battle of the Khadrian continent.
The hooded girl landed and slowly approached with the warrior monk. The princess wiped her sweat, poured gold coins out of the hidden space, and said loudly, "Let us go, let us go! If it is for money, we are willing to buy a way to live with a lot of money." ”
The hooded girl sneered: "The principle of bounty hunters is that they can't break the contract with money. I will make a decision on your life. ”
Damn, such an inflexible guy.
The princess whispered to Vicky, "Hey, think of a way! Isn't your IQ breaking through the sky?"
"But I really can't think of a way. Virgy said sadly.
The princess shouted, "At least you can use the ice rune to extinguish Yuri's fire first!"
Virgie bowed his head and didn't answer, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
The hooded girl and the warrior monk, who were walking to the side of the flames, also felt bad and stopped, and then quickly jumped back.
"Damn fellow, dare to plot against Uncle Ben! Taste my greatsword!"
The fire and yellow sand suddenly burst open, and Yuri suddenly jumped into the air, slashing with pitch-black flames, the steam blade cannon suddenly extended, and the steel chain was accompanied by sword qi in the air, hitting the hooded girl and the warrior monk in the chest with incomparable strength, causing the two to smash into the sand like meteorites and slide away.
"No, it can't be!" the hooded girl spat out blood, "You've obviously been controlled by the magnetic yellow sand!"
Virgi stepped forward, his monocle reflecting a cool cold light: "So you think about why I didn't put out the fire in the first place." ”
The hooded girl was as if she had been struck by lightning: "It's high temperature...... The heat can make the magnet demagnetic! But the fire will burn that guy to death, too! It doesn't make sense!"
At this moment, the crows fell to the ground, and the Spirit Wind Knight Arlan snapped his fingers, and the crow tamer fell to his companion's side covered in blood.
"If the air doesn't flow, it's hard to get heat. Making a film of gas to keep Yuri's surroundings from burning does take a lot of energy. ”
Arlan gently flicked the floating black feather away: "Otherwise, killing your crow array in seconds is just a simple matter of snapping your fingers." ”
Virgi squatted on the ground and said sternly, "So tell me, who hired you and for what purpose?"
"We're just passing robbers. The warrior monk said stiffly.
"Not every robber can name the fat man. Virgi stood upright and said grimly, "It doesn't make sense that you just asked me that the flames would burn Ulysses to death as well. ”
The hooded girl argued in panic: "Nonsense! I didn't mention Yuri's name at all!"
Virgy smiled slyly: "I didn't mention it just now, but I mentioned it now." ”
The princess put the dagger in front of the maiden, and said viciously, "Either you say it yourself, or I will use my means to make you speak." ”
The hooded girl has a straight face, and the dark eyeliner line is hard. The dagger cut through the veil, revealing her wheat-colored skin, and she turned her face to the side, reluctantly saying, "You can't bring that pitch-black liquid back to the Yamalan Fortress. ”
"What?" the princess smiled contemptuously, "so you are the subordinates of the dark god Knox, and you are out in the night to take the dark soul back and continue to harm people, right?"
"Not true. The girl gritted her teeth and retorted loudly, "You will only be really harmful if you continue to move forward." We can't tell you the details, but you must be stopped. ”
Yuri said dissatisfiedly, "Hey, listen, it is precisely in order to completely destroy the dark soul that we have brought her to the seat of the Storm Goddess and use the Goddess's supreme power to complete this task. There is no need to disrupt the audio-visual with rhetoric. ”
The princess sneered, "That is, how many good things can a bounty hunter have?"
As she spoke, the princess put her hand into the girl's pocket, and the girl writhed in great humiliation, but was forced by the dagger to remain calm in resentment.
"You see, isn't this a power of attorney? it says that the commission is to prevent Yuri and the others from bringing the crystal bottle and the pitch-black liquid to the Stronghold of the Mountains, the client is Franz Horn, and there is a separate wax badge next to his life indicating that the organization he belongs to is the Adventurers' Guild. ”
The air was awkward and heavy, and for a few seconds the night wind could be heard.
The princess exclaimed, "Why is your client the Adventurers' Guild!"
You must know that the princess has a great kindness to the Adventurers' Guild during the war, and if she and Yuri Vigi had not insisted that the Guild move out of the border forest, then the second collision caused by the battle between the Lord of Despair and the Reckoning Angels would have caused huge casualties and losses to the Guild. It can be said that the people of the Adventurer's Guild are all friends of the three teenagers, and if they encounter trouble during their journey, they will definitely get the selfless assistance of the adventurers, such as the little bell who gave a gold coin to his righteous shot, and there is absolutely no reason for the Adventurer's Guild to hire bounty hunters to target.
At the same time, Virgy picked up an eagle skull emblem that the princess was still on the ground, and his face became terrified.
"They're no ordinary bounty hunters, they're a group of Gravekeepers of Hot Sands. ”
Yuri was puzzled: "What kind of organization is this?"
Virgi opened the princess's dagger and said politely, "The gravekeepers of the hot sands are a desert tribe of noble character, not a mercenary thug. Generally speaking, their mission is to save the wanderers of the desert plains, to deal with poachers who quietly hunt rare animals, and to protect the ancient tombs in the desert from tomb robbers. ”
Yuri grinned, "Sounds like they're good people." So the situation is that we have been jointly targeted by the Adventurers' Association, who are eager to help others, and the kind and responsible Gravekeeper of Hot Sand. What the hell is going on!"
Virgi and Yuri turned their faces to look at the princess: "Princess, do you think about what you have done again?"
"Shut up, you two!" said the princess, "for nothing of my business. ”
The grave keeper girl said indifferently: "I have already said that we must stop you, because if you leave it alone, your journey will definitely cause a great disaster, this is the original words of the client, and I have conveyed it on my behalf." ”
Arlan hugged his wings to his chest: "This matter is easy to confirm, use the communication crystal to get in touch with the salesman lady of the Adventurers Association, and ask it to make it clear." ”
Three teenagers decide the winner with rock-paper-scissors, and the loser is Yuri, as usual. Because Virgi's left eye can deduce that he will definitely make a blow by highlighting the hand muscles that Yuri is about to use, and the princess is agile enough to give a response within a hundredth of a second when he sees what Yuri is doing, Yuri can't see that the princess's punch is actually slightly slower.
I really don't want to talk to that young lady if I can, Yuri thought nervously, and heard the terrifying cry of the young lady Kanban Niang.
"Do you want to die once and see?Yuri, do you know how expensive long-distance crystal communications can be!"
"I'm sorry. Yuri asked in a low voice, "Did the Adventurers' Guild send someone to stop us from going to the Yamalan Fortress?"
"You're really out of your head, and the long-distance communication is just for asking such inconsistencies of the question?Yuri, can you tell me when you're blind?Can't you even see that you've received gratuitous assistance from the Adventurers' Guild along the way?"
Yuri swallowed, "So you didn't do it, did you?"
"Of course, this must be a nonsense! Keeping the soul of the witch away from the forest of Jinxi and destroying it with the power of the gods is simply a great thing for the benefit of the country and the people, why should we hinder you? If someone is against you under our banner, the answer is, of course, that they are impostors!"
Virgy interjected, "So Miss, is there anyone in the association named Franz Horn?"
"I don't have a name like that in my notebook, but now I write him down in my notebook, and remind me that if I see this man one day, I will serve him myself with a sledgehammer. Don't use communication crystals for boring things, that's all!"
Kanban Niang's hammer-sized fist smashed through the illusion, and Yuri and Virgy subconsciously hugged their heads and scurried, only to realize after half a second that she had turned off the crystal.
The princess sighed and said, "You hear that, maybe you have met a liar." ”
The grave keeper girl was also very puzzled, and let the princess pull herself up, and glanced at her companions, but she couldn't figure it out at all.
"I'm sorry. The girl whispered, "We didn't ask about the situation." ”
"It doesn't matter, girl. Virgie replied softly.
The maiden took the princess's healing medicine: "Who will be your enemy in this way?"
Yuri replied, "We have more enemies. Who knows if it's the minions of Knox, or the sinister guys of the Order of the Holy Light. Anyway, let's leave it at that. ”
After clearing up the misunderstanding, the teenagers moved forward again. However, both the grave keepers and the teenagers felt that the matter did not end so lightly.
The crow tamer said uneasily, "The ravens look at them as if they were looking at the dead. This does not bode well. ”
And Virgy was deeply disturbed: "Whoever the impostor is, he knows the details of us very well. You must know that the Grave Keeper of the Hot Sands is a large organization, but the three people sent to hunt us down happen to have the best ability to restrain us. I don't believe it's a coincidence. ”
