"You're going?"

Hearing Yu Lian's answer, not only the old mercenary, but even his subordinates were stunned, and when they looked at You Lian, their eyes suddenly changed like looking at a fool, Holy Grace is above, do you really not see it or are you pretending to be confused? That's a middle-level and high-level alien, how could you have beaten it? But after all, these people didn't say their thoughts, but looked at those black-armored warriors, after all, these mercenaries are not sure about You Lian, but they are full of confidence in his subordinates, in their opinion, these black-armored warriors are all experienced and skilled swordsmen, and naturally they also see the danger of this xenomorph in front of them, so I'm afraid they don't need to be reminded, these subordinates should come out and hold their masters.

But at this glance, the mercenaries were all stunned, only to see that those black-armored warriors were still standing not far behind You Lian at this time, without the slightest intention of stopping their master, but still talking in their own low voices, as if they didn't notice what was happening here. And at this moment when the mercenaries were stunned, Yu Lian's figure had quietly disappeared and left them.

"Everyone. ”

Seeing that Yulian had already walked to the edge of the woods, the old mercenary's heart sank, and he hurriedly came to the side of the black-armored warriors and spoke.

"I also hope that you can stop your master from taking on such a stupid challenge, with his strength, there is no way to deal with a mid-level xenomorph on his own!

"Don't worry, Mr. Mercenary. ”

Judy, who was whispering something to her companion, looked up after hearing the old mercenary's words, she glanced at Yuren's back, but turned her head as if nothing had happened, and comforted her. "With Your Excellency's strength, there will be no danger at all in dealing with xenos of this level, so I don't think there is any room for us to play, as long as we obediently enjoy it here. ”

"What........."

Hearing Judy's answer, the mercenaries were all stunned for a while, they stared at the figure of the young man, how could they not imagine that they would get such an answer. Frankly speaking, they don't believe that with Yu Lian's strength, he can deal with a mid-level and upper-level xenomorph, although Yu Lian has not made a move along the way, but after all, his age is there, a young swordsman who is just in his early twenties, and a nobleman, in the eyes of the mercenaries, he must not be able to devote all his time to practicing swordsmanship like other swordsmen, even if his talent is high, it is impossible to break through the high-level barrier that is almost equivalent to a desperate situation for many people at this age, right?!

Originally, everyone thought so, but Judy's answer made these people hesitate again, after all, unlike the noble young master who didn't move his hands with his mouth, Judy and other spirit warriors fought with mercenaries who had personally experienced, and they naturally understood how powerful and terrifying these black-armored warriors were, and with the strength they showed, it shouldn't be possible to try to deceive these mercenaries themselves, and besides, no matter how they say it, they are also their masters, once there is any trouble, these black-armored warriors will probably be questioned。 But now, seeing them so confident, many mercenaries' hearts began to waver, and they couldn't help but look back at the young nobleman, as if they wanted to see what kind of power he had.

The xenomorph was unaware of Yuren's presence, it still patrolled its territory, while gnawing on the surrounding trees, this beast was originally a herbivore, living by biting young leaves and fresh grass, but now, for the gigantic one, the previous food was simply not enough to fill its own teeth, so now it can only turn to find more "huge" food to satisfy its appetite. And now, the surrounding trees have been eaten clean by it, and the remaining land has also rotted under the corrosive aura emitted by the alien body, turning into a soft quagmire. If you rush through it in such a situation, you will definitely fall into it, and then you will not be able to move freely. It is precisely because of this that the mercenaries have taken a fancy to this, so they feel that it is tricky. After all, this xenomorph is surrounded by such a quagmire, how do you move on it unless it can fly?

With such a question, the mercenaries also looked at Yu Lian, waiting for his action, but they did not expect that Yu Lian had stopped when he reached the edge of the quagmire, he looked at the giant beast not far away, shrugged his shoulders, and then took a deep breath.

Then they saw his right hand holding the hilt of his sword.

And then, the dazzling brilliance tore through the space and burst out.

The mercenaries' eyes widened in disbelief at what was happening in front of them, and the snow-white half-moon-shaped light wave burst out from the black sword, whistling and tearing through the air, shooting towards the xenos not far away.

Sword qi out of the body, high-level swordsman?!

At this moment, the mercenaries felt that their brains were completely insufficient, what are you kidding, this young little nobleman is really a high-level swordsman? Could it be that he is a rare talent in a hundred years?

This sudden shock made the mercenaries almost completely lose their judgment, and they could only watch as the snow-white light wave easily tore through the steely defenses of the xenomorphs, leaving a deep scar on the huge body.

“――――！！”

The intense pain caused the xenomorph to react immediately, it roared and turned around, and soon, its four eyes were focused on the human standing not far from its side, the intense pain and anger made it immediately become excited, and the faint corrosive aura that had been enveloping its side also became thick and radiated outward. Although his intelligence as an xenomorph is limited, after being violently stimulated, the beast's instinct immediately bursts out, and sees Yuren, the only one in his sight, as an enemy.

The smell of fishy smell immediately filled the entire space, and even the original bright green young leaves quickly turned yellow and dried at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then turned into pieces of dust and disappeared into the air. The same is true of the green grass on the ground, shriveled, withered, sunk into the slippery and rotting earth, and disappeared.

What a terrible ability.

Noticing this, the mercenaries couldn't help but gasp, after all, they had never seen such a strong corrosive aura, surrounded by this kind of aura, ordinary people probably didn't need to be attacked at all, they would be corrupted into a puddle of rotten meat.

Thinking of this, everyone's eyes were once again focused on Yu Lian, what kind of method would this high-level swordsman use to defeat this troublesome xenomorph? Could it be that he also possessed the elemental power of a black-armored warrior?

However, what everyone saw was You Lian holding a sword in both hands, holding it sideways and forward, as if he was about to charge.

Charge?

This posture was not unfamiliar to the mercenaries, could it be that this young high-ranking swordsman was planning to take down the xenomorph by charging down?

However, contrary to what everyone imagined, although Yuren was in a good position, he did not have the skill to start the charge, he just raised his long sword like that, squinted his eyes slightly, and stared at the xenos rushing towards him.

The ground trembled.

The impact and air pressure brought by the huge xenomorph running was enough to make ordinary people tremble, just looking at the huge figure pressing on him was enough to make most people flee, but Yuren stood there motionless, holding the long sword in both hands, completely without the next move. No one knows, even the mercenaries, they can't help but get anxious/ And at this moment, the huge xenomorph has already rushed to Yulian's side.

In an instant, the sharp horns on its head were enough to pierce the human who dared to appear in front of him, and throw it out like a rag, but that was the end of it.

In the face of the xenomorph attack, all Yu Lian did was stab straight out of the long sword in his hand.

Then, in an almost weak and weak posture, he "pointed" on the sharp horns of the xenomorph.

Then, a wail sounded like a roar.

The giant beast that was originally rushing forward suddenly stopped the moment it was hit by Yulian's sword, and not only that, its huge, hard head was dented in an instant, and a spiderweb-like crack suddenly appeared on it, and then, the huge body flew up as if it was collided by some invisible force, and fell backwards heavily on the quagmire.

The strange scene in front of me was completely incomprehensible, as if it was not the giant xenomorph that was rushing at high speed, but Yuren. However, everyone saw that Yulian had been standing in place and had not moved at all, but why did he burst out with so much power that he was even able to knock a mid-level xenomorph alive?

What kind of high-level swordsman can possess such power?

Compared to the immobile mercenaries, Judy and the other spirit warriors were obviously not surprised by this, and after the xenomorph fell to the ground, they immediately stepped forward and went to clean up the battlefield. And it wasn't until Yulian withdrew his sword and walked back to the others that they finally seemed to react.

"I think we should be able to move on next, right? Mr. Mercenary?"

Looking at Yu Lian's gaze with an obvious smile, the old mercenary subconsciously swallowed his saliva, he couldn't figure out what kind of existence the young man in front of him was, but he was already very clear that he had no ability to refuse at the moment, the other party had already shown his strength, and all he could do now was to follow behind this young nobleman and move forward.

Holy grace is above, and I hope that this mission can be completed as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, the old mercenary couldn't help sighing, and began to wonder if he shouldn't have taken this task, resulting in a wrong step, a wrong step, and now he wants to regret it, but unfortunately, it seems that the other party obviously refuses to give him this opportunity. I just don't know if it's a blessing or a curse if I continue to go on like this.

Taking in the eyes of the old mercenary, You Lian just smiled and didn't say anything, in fact, he dragged the Blue Feather Mercenary Group into the water, naturally he had his purpose, but of course, these chess pieces didn't need to know their position on the chessboard.

But the people behind them are different.

Thinking of this, Yulian raised his head and looked at the clear blue sky.

At this time, presumably Her Royal Highness the princess should also take action.

Offariel sighed and withdrew her gaze from the window.

Now, they have left the Twilight Forest and entered the city of the Bird family, which, unlike the Twilight Forest, is extremely vibrant as the junction of the golden trade road and the plains. This is evidenced by the crowds walking on the streets, as well as the patrolling soldiers and lively shops.

Of course, this does not mean that the Bird family is well managed, although as the administrator of this territory, the Bird family does govern this land, but it is only that. They didn't make any special moves with a construction surname, after all, just the value of the gold trade route itself was enough to make the Bird family smile, and naturally they would not waste their brains to do anything to build a creative surname.

Moreover, the current prosperity is not just due to the golden trade routes, in fact, the annual Midsummer Festival will soon be held here, and for three days after the Dawn Star appears in the night sky, people will hold a grand feast to pray for good luck this year and thank Manna for all that her presence has given mankind. And this is also a good time for the nobles to win over their feelings.

Of course, O'Faryl knew very well that the Bird family had made the decision to invite Yuren after seeing the report of the viscount, and it was obvious that the other party wanted to get close and confirm their strength with their own eyes. But now, Yu Lian has handed over this troublesome matter to himself, and has taken the spirit warriors to the forest for an outing, which inevitably makes Her Royal Highness the princess a little dissatisfied, but ......... It's nothing, she knows very well why Yulian is doing this, since he believes in his own abilities, then he has to do his best so as not to disappoint his lord.

I just don't know if the search for the source is really going as smoothly as the lord said.

Ofaril shook his head, throwing away the complicated thoughts in his mind, and then glanced at the strange and unique black and white carriage that followed behind him, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

"Miss Ofariel, are you unwell?"

Noticing this, Charlotte, who was sitting beside her, smiled softly and asked.

"No, I'm just a little worried. ”

O'Faryl looked at Charlotte and opened her mouth to say something, but she couldn't. In fact, since the beginning of the road, Offariel has been very worried about the two young ladies, this time to participate in the Midsummer Festival, a total of four people went to the Bird family on behalf of Yuren, in addition to Ofariel, Charlotte also went with the head maid, and the rest were the twin sisters. For Offariel, although Charlotte's origin is a bit mysterious and strange, at least her surname is gentle, and she knows the general situation, so there should be no surprise to have her by her side. But the pair of sisters can't be said well, although Ofariel has not been in contact with them for a long time, but he knows the sisters very well but they have strange surnames, and sometimes they always show their childish side, of course, this is not surprising, but with the strength of the two of them, it is different. Frankly, O'Farriel understood why Yuren had kept the sisters by her side, but she wasn't sure she would be able to get them to listen to her.

After all, in terms of identity, the sisters are still their own "teachers".

Holy grace is above, and for now we have to pray that the sisters will not cause any trouble here.

At this moment, O'Faryl suddenly smelled a fragrance, and she turned to look curiously, only to see that Charlotte had taken out a small glass bottle from somewhere, and the fragrance was cast from it.

"It's ..............."

"A little potion, Miss O'Fariel, it can calm your mind, and, these days, you are very tired, I suggest that you still need to rest well before embarking on your mission. ”

"Thank you for your kindness. ”

Hearing this, O'Faryl showed a smile of gratitude, in fact, the current operation of the Twilight Forest has entered the normal, after the complicated preparations in the early stage, the current Twilight Forest has undergone earth-shaking changes under the management of O'Fariel, although it is not as prosperous as these cities near the golden trade route, but it has also gotten rid of the previous life of few people. And feeling the wonderful aroma, O'Faryl's mood also relaxed a lot.

"Frankly, I'm just a little uneasy about those two young ladies. ”

"If that's the case, then don't worry too much, Miss O'Faryl. ”

Hearing this, Charlotte smiled and narrowed her eyes, as if she had seen through Ofariel's troubles.

"Although the actions of those two young ladies can be a little strange at times, I assure you that they are still very knowledgeable, especially the actions that your Excellency has given them, and these two young ladies have never messed up. ”

"In that case, then I'm relieved. ”

Hearing this, O'Faryl smiled wryly, and then, she looked out the window, her expression immediately becoming serious.

At that moment, the carriage stopped, and then the doors opened.

"On behalf of the Bird family, I would like to welcome you all. ”

Standing under the carriage, Viscount Juventus, with a friendly, humble smile, made an inviting gesture to the crowd.
