Medanzo's armor and weapons glittered in the sunlight, and he rode his horse to the square in front of the temple, and everyone's eyes were immediately drawn to him, causing a whispering of whiskers. Mayor Diqi separated from the crowd and walked up quickly, bowed very politely and said, "Knights from other countries, are you here to help us rescue Princess Xiaoqian?"

Mei Danzuo dismounted and returned the salute: "My name is Mei Danzuo, I live in the royal capital, and I am a fourth-level samurai. I love to travel around the continent, yearn for legendary heroes, and dream of one day building your own deeds! I heard that you are recruiting warriors in the town, so I came to serve with my weapons. ”

The town's maidens also crowded into the crowd to watch the excitement, and several flowery girls proudly said to the people next to them: "Look, that handsome hero, we were with him last night!"

Seeing Medanzo dressed like a great samurai, but introducing himself as a fourth-level samurai, this is somewhat disappointing. But Diqi is still very happy, one more person has more strength, and the more sophisticated the weapon, the stronger the combat effectiveness. He himself was a fifth-level samurai, the only mid-rank samurai in the town, and now there was another Medanzo.

Mayor Tiqi took the reins and said, "I, the town, the city-state, and the entire kingdom will thank you. ...... Did this warrior come with you, too?" he had not forgotten Amun, who was walking with another horse and following Medanzo.

Mei Danzuo paused and said: "He, he is my friend, a fifth-level mid-level warrior, but he has a modest temper and does not like to be public, and this time he also took the initiative to rescue Princess Xiaoqian. ”

If he hadn't introduced him like this, people might have thought of Amon as his servant, and knights often had more than one horse on their journeys, and Amon resembled a retinue with a twig behind him. Medanzo is so well-dressed, and his entourage is not shabby, and he wears a very beautiful fur coat with soft-soled leather boots. The idea of letting Amon pretend to be a servant was originally made by Medanzo, but he didn't say that Amon was his servant after all, and temporarily changed his words to say that he was a friend.

There was even a fifth-level warrior! Diqi greeted Amun with great joy: "Your bearing is like a noble hermit, thank you for your help, this town and the city-state of Kish will be greatly grateful." ...... Please rest in the temple, and my clerk will explain the arrangements for the operation in detail, and the horses will be taken care of. ”

Seeing that Medanzo suddenly changed his words again, Amon just smiled and didn't say anything, and entered the Maldok Temple in Akkad Town with Medanzo. The clerk and his servants arranged for them to rest well, eat enough and wait for the evening to leave, while the recruitment in the square outside continued.

Amon sat in the temple's lounge, sipping broth and eating bread, munching slowly as Dirk, the town's clerk, introduced the plan of action. He and Medanzo were both mid-level samurai, and they were especially respected and valued in a group of people, and the clerk was basically introducing them to them. Amon was about to interject to ask something, but when he looked up, he was stunned, for he saw an "acquaintance"—not an acquaintance, but a deity he had known since childhood.

The main deity of the main hall of this temple is of course Marduk, and on one wall of the side hall there are many reliefs of gods, one of which is Mu Yun, the former patron saint of Duk Town. There is a shrine dedicated to the goddess Mu Yun in Duk Town, and Amon has long been familiar with her idols, but after the catastrophe that destroyed his surname, he no longer wants to remember too much.

But here he suddenly saw the relief of the goddess Mu Yun, and he suddenly figured out one thing, why did he feel so familiar when he met Yin Nanna for the first time, it turned out that her appearance resembled the goddess Mu Yun! The solemn and majestic statue is difficult to associate with the girl with a living color, but her face and posture really resemble the goddess Mu Yun.

Amon went here to save Yin Nanna, and he reacted at once after thinking about it, and then he was a little puzzled, why did Princess Xiaoqian of the Barron Kingdom look so much like Goddess Mu Yun, is it a coincidence? The royal family of Barron claims to be the descendants of the gods in the world, so Goddess Mu Yun may also be the ancestor of Princess Xiaoqian, so it can be explained.

...... Just as Amon was looking at the idol in a daze, a group of five people came to the square in front of the temple, led by a magician with a magic staff, followed by a young magician and three warriors with weapons.

Before they could get closer, Mayor Diqi had already separated from the crowd and greeted him: "Venerable Magician, please forgive me for being rude to the mayor of the town, not knowing that you were in this town. ...... Did you hear about what was going on in the town and came to help?"

They were just a group of passers-by who lived in the inn, and they didn't reveal that there were magicians among them, and their identities were revealed at this moment. The middle-aged man at the head nodded slightly and said, "You are the mayor here, you are doing a very good job!" I am the sixth-level magician Jie Kai from the royal capital, this is my student, the third-level magician Elite, these three are my companions, they are all middle-level warriors, I heard that Princess Xiaoqian is in danger, and the mayor of the town recruits warriors to come to the rescue, and she should serve!"

As he spoke, Jie Kai showed a special nameplate, although his name was not written on it, it was enough to prove his identity and origin, it was the symbol of the teachers of the Barron Academy of Divine Arts, and it was also a certificate for entering and leaving many places in the Academy of Divine Arts, and there was a divine mark on it that could be identified.

Mayor Diqi's heart was in ecstasy, and he almost didn't jump up with joy! Yesterday he thought he was the most unlucky person in the world, how could he have encountered such a disaster inexplicably? But this afternoon he almost thought that he had become the luckiest person in the world, and when Zhang Bang was recruiting, he learned that there was a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger in Akkadian Town, and two magicians came at once, and five more mid-level warriors!

Originally, there was only one mid-level warrior in Akkadian Town, and there was only one third-level magician and one first-level magician in the temple, and there were only more than twenty low-level warriors in the town. This afternoon's recruitment has greatly increased the strength of their team, especially the Venerable Master Jiekai, who is the instructor of the Royal Capital Divine Art Academy, and his identity is completely different from that of ordinary divine magicians.

A sixth-level magician, he can already perform high-level magic, and he is only one step away from being a great magician. According to Jaykai's self-introduction, he heard about the murder of Gilgamesh and Enkidu in the royal capital, and rushed to the battlefield of the Eudy River with his students and a few friends to visit the ruins of that great battle. The magician wasn't lying, and their group had come to see what they were doing, passing through the town of Akkadian.

...... At dawn, a strange convoy departed from the town of Akkad, loaded with all kinds of supplies like a long-distance migration, but the horsemen and the guards of the convoy were all samurai, armed with various weapons. The convoy was followed by camels and horses, and the procession went very fast, and all of them looked serious, and some of the samurai were very excited.

It was said that the carriages with wide carriages should be used to transport so many supplies, but most of the cars in this convoy were light and strong, and the bodies were very narrow and only pulled by one horse, so there were many of them. There were also a few very light wagons with the best horses that could run very fast, leaving one at intervals along the way, guarded by a special person who would not follow the procession.

This is where Mayor Diqi thinks carefully and safely, if he rescues Princess Xiaoqian and has a conflict with the giant tribe, he must escort her to escape as soon as possible. Knights can change horses, but the noble princess needs to ride in a car, and in case of injury, she must be treated in the car, and changing cars along the way can ensure the fastest speed, so prepare the car in advance.

Amon silently observed all this, and admired the mayor of the town a little, this kind of sudden incident was like the sky falling for the mayor, but Diqi Zhou did not deal with it in the slightest, and tried to do the best under the existing conditions.

Among the "important people" in this team, the most mysterious and precious are of course Jie Kai and others, the most powerful and stylish is of course Medanzo, and the most low-key is Amon. In addition to worrying and nervous, the leader of the team, Diqi Zhou, also had a trace of excitement and impulse, he didn't know the identity of Princess Xiaoqian, but the beautiful and enchanting girl fascinated him, and even wanted to pursue her.

After knowing that she was Princess Xiaoqian, she had cut off all possibilities of getting close, but there was an opportunity in front of her. He led such a team to successfully rescue Princess Xiaoqian, and maybe he could win the favor of the beauty, which is a hero's work. Although he would not be stupid enough to fight with Gilgamesh for his fiancée, and there was nothing wrong with his delusions, it was a supreme honor to win the favor and praise of the princess, not to mention the rewards of the city-state and the royal capital.

In fact, many of the samurai in the team had similar thoughts, so they were also worried with inexplicable excitement, and at this moment, they may all imagine themselves as Enqidu who went to kill Humbaba.

Amon and Medanzo had two horses, both good horses, and the horses that pulled the cart were not the same as the horses that rode in battle, but they could barely cope with them in such a hurry. Mayor Tiqi gave them another horse to ride on the road, and two of the three horses were always resting. People can travel overnight, but animals may not be able to stand it, and the whole team must be kept in the best condition.

Amon also noticed one thing, among the group led by Jaykai, there was a young man with a very special status, obviously more noble than the others. Although he was just an entourage, the attitude of the other four people towards him was invisibly very respectful, and their expressions were unintentionally cautious, whether it was changing horses or drinking water, they all took care of this young man first.

This young man claimed to be a noble warrior in the royal capital, and it seemed that his identity was not simple. When Amon found out about this, he also quietly reminded Medanzo. In fact, his own identity is the same, if Medanzo doesn't change his mind and asks him to follow him as a servant, a casual detail may be revealed, depending on whether anyone notices.

The team set out overnight, stopping for a short rest in the early morning, and everyone was full of food and drink and immediately moved forward. As he walked on, Amon understood why most of the group consisted of light and narrow carriages, because the roads were rough after entering the mountains, and only such carriages could barely pass, and sometimes the samurai needed to help them push through the difficult sections.

At noon, when the sun was at its warmest, the convoy rested for a while, and by this time it had entered the deep mountains, which were a valley road between steep mountain peaks, gradually deepening and rising. The surrounding peaks were like behemoths, with an indescribable sense of oppression, and the atmosphere gradually became tense, and everyone stopped talking, and kept vigilant with weapons in hand.

The weather on the Syrian Plateau was much colder than in the Eudi Valley, and the further you walked up the mountain, the more cold and windy it became, and the warriors couldn't help but wrap their clothes tightly. Most of the barbarians living here are tall and powerful than ordinary people, and they are not without communication with the outside world, and many of the plateau giants have even accepted recruitment from nearby kingdoms as mercenaries. Gabriel had been ambushed by the Governor's Guard in the city-state of Syria, including two plateau giants trained in martial arts.

Not all of the inhabitants of the Plateau Giant tribe are so-called giants, just like the people of Link's dwarven tribe are not so-called dwarves, but the tallest and strongest of them are indeed like giants. The Assyrian kingdoms north of the plateau even had special giant battle formations, which were recruited and selected for special training, and the number was small but the absolute elite.

Many years ago, some of them were scattered in the war, and fled back to the tribes deep in the mountains, passing on the physical skills they had learned. Therefore, those powerful plateau giant tribes also have warriors who practice physical arts, and with their natural strength, they are indeed very difficult to deal with.

Princess Xiaoqian's guard is not weak, but she just came out to play and not fight, it is impossible to mess around with a great magician, there are two middle-level magicians by her side, and a seventh-level great warrior, that is, the one who broke out of the encirclement and reported the injury, and the other eight people are also middle-level warriors. However, the warriors of the Plateau Giant tribe will use bows and swords, which are very powerful and have a long range, and it is also dangerous for the magicians to be surrounded.

Not all plateau giants are well-trained, and only a few are lucky enough to have physical achievements, most of them can use bows and arrows, but they generally don't cooperate like battle formations. But this time the situation is very special, it is a little strange that several of the most powerful giants in the vicinity have joined forces to act together.

Don't fight with them brute force and get into a bitter battle surrounded by them, don't be in a position where you can be shot by bows and arrows from several directions, pay attention to the terrain, and don't be forced into a Jedi with no way out. -- Mayor Tichi explained to everyone in detail what had happened and laid out various plans to deal with it. But nothing else happened along the way, and not even a single plateau giant was met.

In the afternoon, the convoy climbed a steep mountain road with difficulty, reached an open area on the top of the mountain, and finally met the person who came to greet the other party. They were a group of tall men, almost all of them of the same stature as Enqi Amon had ever seen, holding heavy weapons such as clubs, hammers, and iron forks in their hands, and wearing messy animal skin clothes.

Diqi Zhou got out of the car, and Medanzo also dismounted, and Amon escorted the mayor left and right, and the sixth-level magician Jakai followed behind the mayor of Diqi, they maintained a very cautious formation, and the others remained by the side of the convoy to keep watch.

Diqi Zhou shouted loudly: "Are you the tribe besieging the princess of the kingdom? I have brought everything I want! Who is the leader? Tell him to come out and talk to me." ”

The group of people who came up with them had a stiff accent, and shouted in a chaotic voice: "We are all leaders! ”

Zhou Lian shook his head and said: "Even if it is a kidnapping, it is not so ransomed! This is your territory, and I have traveled a long way to deliver everything, showing complete sincerity." You must at least let me see the princess and know that she is safe and sound before you hand it over. ”

"Princess?", "He wants to see the princess?", "No, he wants to negotiate!", "Aren't we ready to negotiate?", "Oh, let's talk then!" The dozen or so plateau giants talked to each other for a long time, and then shouted at Diqi Zhou: "The kidnapping wants to negotiate, right? We all understand...... Come on, the tents are ready in front. ”

Not to mention that Amon was confused when he saw this kind of scene for the first time, even the mayor of Diqi, who had dealt with the plateau giants and knew their temper, was puzzled, could there be any other tricks? Since everyone is here, let's go over and talk, or these four people walked over, the young man named Youledu wanted to go to "negotiate" together, but both Diqi and Jakai asked him to guard the convoy.

On the way, Mayor Diqi assigned their respective tasks to everyone, the young man named Yuledu was mainly responsible for rescuing the princess and quickly escorting her away, the other two mid-level warriors and a magician accompanied her to protect, and the heavily armed Medanzo and others broke off the cover. Presumably, the mayor of the town also saw that the identity of Youledu was extraordinary, even more noble than Jacques.

Not far ahead, there was a tent in a clearing outside the woods, which was very large and magnificent, and it was actually sewn from the expensive snow leopard skin on the plains, which was very beautiful. Such a tent was propped up in the mountains, and even the beasts did not dare to approach it from a distance, but if you looked at it closely, it looked very rough and messy.

Walking into the tent, tables and stools were already set up inside, made of logs, sturdy and bulky. A little man greeted him, bowed, and said, "Is it Mayor Diqi from Akkadian Town?" My name is Yusir, and I am a representative of the United Tribe here, have you sent everything we want?"

This man is articulate, not at all like the other plateau giants with simple minds and well-developed limbs, he is not short, he is about the same height as Diqi, but he looks like a dwarf when standing in a group of tall tribesmen. Yusir's round head, round eyes, round nose, and smiling expression without smiling look very funny.

Amon noticed that Yusil had a rod pinned to his waist, much like a staff, and after carefully sensing it, it was really a staff, although it couldn't enter Amon's eyes, but it was also a good thing for ordinary magicians.
