Chapter 8: The Truth

Wind sniffing. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Sean used the wind olfactory to sense the breath within a radius of five hundred meters, the breath of the hare and pheasant Sean was familiar, and he did not find an unfamiliar powerful aura, and the ogre was not nearby. And there is no breath of a large beast, apparently scared away by an ogre.

And Sean only then knew why there were so few demonic beasts here, and there were not even a few first-level demonic beasts.

"Where there are ogres, where do ordinary demonic beasts dare to stay here longer. Sean's face was bitter.

A month ago, Sean sensed that something was not normal near the Sunset River, but he didn't think deeply. If Sean had been wary, Panis might not have suffered this fate.

Don't dare to delay.

Sean flies downstream along the Sunset River while using Isolation to hide his aura and avoid some unnecessary trouble.

A pair of eyes staring at the river. With the mental power of a second-level mage and a normal physique, Sean's eyesight is extremely strong.

Look all the way downstream.

The weeds and thorns on the riverside cut wounds on Sean's soles, thighs, and even his chest and back. It hurt, but it didn't affect Sean's speed. Panis just fell into the river and wasn't captured by the ogre, so there was a glimmer of hope.

In any case, if you live to see a person and die to see a corpse.

Sean pursed his lips, ignoring the scars on his body, and maintained the wind whirlwind technique at all times.

About half an hour, about ten miles away from the departure river, Sean finally found a black shadow stopped by a big tree falling in the river, Sean's eyes lit up. That shadow was none other than Panis.

Thump!

Dive into the water and bring Panis back to shore.

"It's okay, it's gasy. Sean felt Panis's faint breath and rejoiced.

Perform the first aid techniques learned in the previous life, chest resuscitation, artificial respiration......

After a few minutes of tossing, Panis spat out a few mouthfuls of water, and her breathing finally calmed down. Sean breathed a sigh of relief and sat down next to Panis, a smirk on his face.

Panis was his first friend in the world, and his only friend so far. If he dies so inexplicably, Sean will have to regret it for the rest of his life.

Sunlight shone through the cracks in the foliage and fell on Sean and Panis. Panis's little face was bathed in sunlight, and there was still fear on her face that had not had time to fade, and her jet-black hair was messy against her face.

Sean gently stroked Panis's delicate face and brushed his hair aside.

On Panis, it was an aqua blue robe. The 'stick' on the robe, Sean, already knows the roots.

Staffs.

Wealthy mages will use a staff to assist in spellcasting, which increases spell casting speed and magic power. A poor acid mage like Panis has to save even inferior magic crystals, so naturally it is impossible to have such a tyrant-level equipment as a staff.

At this time, Panis's aqua blue robe had already been soaked by the river, and the soaked robe was attached to Panis's body, making Panis's abrupt figure even more prominent.

"The little girl is really early. ”

Sean snorted and looked away from Panis. He wasn't afraid that Panis would catch a cold. Not to mention that Panis's body is not so easy to get sick after being baptized by the magic element, even if it is a cold, with her own second-level water mage, she can easily heal.

Looking down at the wounds cut by weeds, thorns, and twigs, as well as the tattered clothes, Sean grinned and lay beside Panis, his right arm next to Panis's.

......

"Hmmβ€”where am I? Is it the Eighteen Hells?" Panise opened her eyes, and it was already dark.

Sean sat up with a grunt and grinned, "Yes, you're in the eighteenth hell, and I'm here to save you." ”

β€œ......”

Panis was confused, but not stupid.

Sitting up with her aching body and looking around, Panis's face showed surprise, "yes! not dead! haha, hahaha......"

The little girl smiled stupidly, not even knowing that saliva was flowing down.

Sean looked funny.

"Of course not. With the great Mage Panis's guardian knight, Sean Morris, here, how could Mage Panise die? Sean patted Panis's little head and smiled.

When Panis saw Sean, she reacted, and immediately grabbed Sean's arm with a nervous face, "Sean, there is an ogre here, we have to go back quickly." ”

Ogre.

A powerful and irascible creature, an adult ogre is three meters tall, has extremely thick arms, and is as powerful as a sixth-level warrior. They are less intelligent and often fight with sticks and stones. When encountering an ordinary ogre, a level 5 warrior can easily play it to death. But below the fifth level, with the power and speed of the ogre, there is only the share of escape.

"It's okay, the ogre is gone, you tell me how you met the ogre, and what happened after you met the ogre. Sean thought of the scars, the bloodstains he had seen on Felix's body, and said to Panis.

Panis's eyes widened, still a little scared. Hearing Sean's inquiry, he immediately told him about the situation before and after meeting the ogre.

"Captain Felix led us to hunt a black-haired sword pig and chased it to the edge of the Sunset River. We just drank some water there and rested. Unexpectedly, an ogre suddenly ran out. The ogre had no weapons in his hands, but it was so powerful and fast that it killed three warriors at once. Captain Felix told us to run, and he took us to run. I landed at the rear, as if someone had hit me, and I threw myself on the water. ”

"The ogre had the corpses of three warriors hanging on his body, and he didn't have his hands free to deal with me, I blocked the ogre with a column of water, but the water column that the ogre broke through and hit the sunset river, and then I didn't know anything. ”

Panis was a little scared after speaking.

"Sean, if you hadn't come, I'd have drowned. Panis looked at Sean, her eyes curled into crescents.

Sean smiled, but his heart was cold.

"It's amazing to use a little girl to survive. Sean thought of what Felix said after returning to the manor, and thought that Felix's body was not the scars and blood stains caused by ogres at all, and his heart suddenly felt murderous intent.

Such a ruthless third-level warrior, even a warrior who is about to break through to the fourth-level soon, must not stay for long.

"Be sure to kill him. ”

Originally, he just wanted to snatch back the rights of the knight after he became successful, but now Sean's mind has changed. Felix is murdering! Murdering a little girl who is only 14 years old.

"Three-level pinnacle. ”

Felix's current strength is at the peak of the third level, and it is said that he is always a little bit short of a fourth-level warrior. But this small bottleneck can be broken in three to five months at most. And Felix has been a third-level peak fighter for almost four months.

A breakthrough is possible at any time.

"My current strength ......"

Sean had a headache when he thought of his strength. Magic cultivation can still have bud space to accelerate, but warrior cultivation can't keep up at all. And the improvement of magic to this level is already the fastest speed, unless Sean doesn't care about the rapid development in the future, and meditates unscrupulously for twenty hours a day until his mental power is uncontrollable and collapses.

"Sean, what are you thinking?" Panis held out her little hand and shook it in front of Sean's eyes.

Sean came back to his senses, suppressed the thoughts in his heart, and then said, "I was thinking that the family will arrive the day after tomorrow, and you will return to the family when the time comes." ”

"Ahh Of course, she didn't want to leave Sean's knights, she didn't want to leave Sean.

Beasts can be hunted here, Sean tells her stories, no one will laugh at her magical talent, and Sean often compliments her on her beauty......

It's much better than the family, it's better than the Purple Orchid City, and it's much better than the Second Magic Academy.

But neither Panis nor Sean dared not disobey the family's orders.

"Sean, a mage like me returns to the family, and only by working for the family for ten years or paying ten third-order magic cores or low-grade magic crystals can I regain my status as a free mage, I ......" Panis lowered her head.

Whether it was ten years or ten third-order demon cores and low-grade crystals, it was not something that the current Panis could imagine. Panis wants to stay in the Knights of Sean and be the chief mage of the Knights of Shawn.

Sean knew that Panis was worried, shook his head and smiled, "Panis, you are the chief mage of my Sean Knight Domain, I will definitely not let you stay in the family for ten years." Isn't it just ten third-order demon cores, which add up to thirty gold coins, which is very easy. ”

"Isn't that ...... Ten third-order demon cores...... Thirty gold coins...... That's it?" Panis looked up in surprise, thinking she had misheard.

In the Morris family, a third-level mage is rewarded with three defective magic crystals worth 2.4 gold coins every year, and a total of 3.6 gold coins can be paid in a year if you add a subsidy of ten silver coins per month.

Thirty gold coins, it takes more than eight years to accumulate without eating or drinking.

Thirty gold coins...... Nothing more?

Sean knew what Panis thought, for a little girl with little knowledge, thirty gold coins was indeed a great fortune, a wealth that could only be earned in a lifetime.

But for Sean, who had tens of millions of manuscript fees in his previous life, thirty gold coins was just a trivial matter.

"Panis, have you forgotten Journey to the West?" Sean said, pointing to his head and laughing.

"Journey to the West?"

Of course Panis remembers. This is the name of the story that Sean has told her this month, and Sean has already told that the little monkey was suppressed by the forbidden magic Five Finger Divine Mountain for nine days. Just two days ago, Panis was crying when she heard this.

"But what does Journey to the West have to do with gold coins?" Panis's eyes were confused, and she didn't understand.

Sean slapped his forehead.

"It seems that the habit of paid reading in this world still needs to be cultivated. Sean sat down next to Panis and explained, "Panis, the story of "Journey to the West" is so good, if we write this story into a book and sell it to your classmates who like to read legendary novels, do you think they will pay for it?"
