108. Alarm Alert
At night, ten o'clock sharp.
It's been about three hours since Osher left the Underground Palace of Loyes.
Noknis would not leave Orser alone for no reason and go straight to the Far North Abyss. According to his ability, he can extract the spatial coordinates from the scroll and then remake a new scroll to take Orsher away.
Oter recalled Nokness's last meaningful look.
Sure enough, something happened.
So...... The time it takes to reach the Far North Abyss from here should also be within Nokness's grasp, right?
By the time Orser reached the Far North Abyss, the matter should have been settled.
Where is this, though?
Orser looked at the wide avenue and stood in the middle of the road, bewildered and helpless.
There are no creatures in front of you, and there are ...... in the back.
After a heavy breath, the three earthy-yellow Kodomon-like creatures stopped in turn, and the cargo on their backs trembled several times.
They are called earth dragons, and they are usually ten meters long and five meters wide, and they vary in weight. Domesticated by the Loyes people because of their hard-working, great strength, and docile character, it was the favorite means of transportation for caravans on the continent of Laneige.
The last of the dragons, the largest of them, was fitted with a large bracket, and a number of wooden planes were installed on top of the brackets, and there were wooden railings on the perimeter to prevent people from accidentally slipping down. There are also pale blue magic lanterns in the corners of the area, which are used to illuminate and warn the beasts.
There were about a dozen humans sitting on it, resting.
The two sentinels noticed that the beast under their feet had stopped moving, and poked the earth dragon's head with their long sticks in confusion, but found that the latter was still unmoved.
"What's going on? Why did these brutes stop before it was time to rest?"
"Wait a minute, see if there's a mage in front of you, and how did he end up in front of us?"
The sentinel, who was reminded, squinted his eyes and lifted the magic lantern in his hand a little closer to the front, so that he could see the back of the black-robed mage clearly.
"Mage friend, please give way, you are blocking the direction of our earth dragon, and the earth dragon's turn is troublesome. The sentry's tone was so natural and polite that it was impossible to refuse.
But Orser was still immersed in thinking about how to choose the direction.
He used the flash all the way north, but until now, he still hadn't reached the Far North Abyss that Noknis was talking about.
And the black robe on his body was also thrown by Noknis to Osher before leaving, presumably knowing that Otser's purple skin and pointed ears would attract the attention of the humans in this world, and perhaps cause a lot of small trouble.
Seeing that Osser was standing in the way and showed no sign of giving way, the sentry paused, and seemed to grope for something from behind him, placing it next to the magic lantern.
A silver token.
"Mage friend, we are from the Royal Chamber of Commerce of Loyes, I hope you don't embarrass us, this shipment is urgent, we have to send them to their destination as soon as possible. The sentry's voice began to grow a little serious.
He believed that the token of the Royal Chamber of Commerce of Loyes would be able to make the strange mage retreat.
"Isn't he here to rob?" asked the black-haired sentry next to him in a low voice.
And the blonde-haired sentry holding the token glanced at him: "If it was a robbery, it would have been attacked a long time ago, where do we need to stand in front of us and wait until we find out before robbing?"
"This should be another mage who has gone crazy because of meditation, it's really miserable, I've seen many mages fall into a sluggish mental state because of meditation this year. ”
"Meditation makes mages stupid? ”
"How can they advance without meditating? The higher the level of the mage, the longer the meditation time required, the greater the chance of becoming a fool, the mage in front of us is about level six, and the meditation fails when he breaks through the seventh level. ”
"You can even tell what level it is?" the other sentry looked suspicious.
The blonde-haired sentry holding the token nudged him angrily: "You're not a mage, you also follow the fool, take a good look at the six behind him, the mage guild in Loyes has registered each mage, and the rank will be marked on their clothes." ”
"Then he will also be our Loyes people?"
"So don't fantasize about Mage Loyes robbing Loyes' caravan. The blonde sentry with the token shrugged his shoulders, then looked at Othur in front of him, and saw that Othur still showed no signs of getting out of the way.
The black-robed mage just stood there dumbfounded, motionless.
"Hey, man, we're here to save face, do you want us to go down and get you away?" another black-haired sentry became impatient and yelled at Otser.
Two level 7 warriors, if they want to defeat a level 6 mage, it can be said to be a very easy thing.
The blonde sentry with the token sighed, stopped the eager guys, tapped the dragon's head with a stick, and began to command them to turn.
Due to the large size of the earth dragons and the heavy cargo of the caravan, it will take a lot of effort and time for them to change their direction. Normally, when you see a caravan with a dragon, everyone else will take a detour.
The black-haired sentry on the side was a little dissatisfied: "Why change direction? It will take several minutes, just let this guy give way? After meditating, will you be so stupid that you can't even hear the words clearly?"
The blonde sentry shook his head, hung the magic lantern in his hand, and put away the silver token in his hand.
"Have pity on these mages, they have great magical powers, but they also take great risks because of it, so why should we fight against a fool?"
After saying that, the blonde sentry returned to his post, looked at the moon in the sky that was glowing faintly, as if remembering something, and sighed heavily again.
The black-haired sentry glanced at Other with an indignant look, stamped his foot, and was about to turn back with the magic lantern in his hand, only to find that he could no longer move his legs.
How...... What's going on?
The black-haired sentry struggled to move his eyes downward, finding that his abdomen had been pierced by an arrow glowing green, and blood was running down his feet, but he couldn't make a sound.
A poisonous arrow with a mute spell inflicted on it?
A sense of powerlessness flooded over the black-haired sentry's body, and he collapsed silently on the wooden floor, blood spilling from the corners of his mouth, his eyes slowly closing, and consciousness fading.
The blonde sentry, who had returned to his post, was also pierced through the abdomen by an identical arrow, but he held on for a moment and lit a brilliant magic lantern before slowly falling aside.
The magic lantern then exploded, waking up all those who were on the dragon.
The blonde sentry used his last strength to sound the alarm.
