Since the new emperor left that sentence when he left the Demon Eagle Castle, little Lisa covered her face and ran into the depths of the magic forest, never to be seen again.

Although Klose ordered people to go deep into the magic forest to search for him several times, this little girl seemed to be deliberately avoiding him, and she couldn't find it no matter how she looked for it.

In fact, Klose had a vague feeling that Lisa's identity was probably unusual, but he didn't expect that the little girl was a member of Philip's female guard? And he was raised by Philip since he was a child.

"That damn Holger IV! Before leaving, you have to throw such a bombshell, is it to disgust me? ”

Of course, Klose was not prepared to hold the girl responsible, because he could see that Lisa's heart was already hanging over the Eagle Castle and his lord. And as for who she was raised by .... It's something she can't choose.

And after a detailed investigation by Meloyd and Nightwind, it was not found that Lisa had delivered a single message. So in that internal investigation, she has been excluded.

But the little girl knew that she was wrong, and the thin-skinned little girl plunged into the depths of the forest and never wanted to come out again.

"Where the hell did that little girl go? It's been ten days, what does she eat and drink? Where do you sleep at night? ”

Klose stood at the window of the castle bedroom and looked out, it had been snowing for three days, and the entire magic forest was shrouded in silver, and he couldn't help but be even more worried.

Nightwind hugged his back from behind, put his face on the former's shoulder and whispered, "Don't worry, Meloyd has already spread the little spider, I believe that I will get news of her soon.... You should also feel that little Lisa is not an ordinary human, and she should be fine. ”

Because this little girl is naturally shy, beautiful and well-behaved, everyone in the Magic Eagle Castle loves her very much.

Even the night wind, who has always been cold to outsiders, also takes good care of her.

But fortunately, Meloyd is very familiar with the situation of the magic forest, and with him taking the little spider in to look for it, there should be a whereabouts of the little girl soon.

At the same time that Klose, the newly appointed guardian of the eastern frontier of the kingdom, nested in his own territory and developed in a muffled voice. Located in the northernmost endless desert of the Ryan continent, a series of things have also happened that people are very concerned about.

Although the desert is located in the far north, summer is present all year round. It's just that the climate in the desert can't be guessed by ordinary experience, where the sun is often shining, but the next second suddenly snowflakes fall.

The four-member mercenary team that had gone through a lot of trouble to bring the news of the Demon Forest back to the north had received their next mission. That is to explore the ruins of the heart of the Great Desert.

Some say that monsters will emerge from the sand in the ruins. And this time, the mission released was issued by the Mercenary Federation on behalf of the mercenary federation.

And the danger star of this mission reaches the highest five stars!

And our bizarre quartet ripped the list off the wall almost without even thinking about it.

"Hi guys! We've got our chance to hit the ground running! ”

Ward waved his task list and ran back to the round table where his companion was sitting.

Falk was nibbling on rusks and was studying the lace news in the North, and when he saw Ward and what he was holding, he asked out loud, "My lizard ancestor, where did you find the five-star mission?" ”

"Right in the corner over there, the publisher is Shar Kusack, the king of mercenaries! You see, it says that if you can successfully complete this mission and bring back useful information, the person who completes the mission will have a chance to join the mercenary team directly under the Mercenary King! What a glory that is! ”

Fake spread his hands and said helplessly: "But we already have our own team, our name is 'Xiao', do you remember?" ”

The lizardman scratched his head in a humming voice: "Oh... Of course I remember, but this doesn't conflict with the mercenary team directly under us to join the king of mercenaries! His mercenary team is also made up of many small groups. ”

Falk shook his head and continued to nibble on his rusks.

Jadeite had a glass of milk in front of him and a straw stuck in it. She sat on a high wooden bench, her feet swinging off the ground, looking very casual.

Salomon still sat there with his eyes rolled and silent.

This oasis on the edge of the desert in the north is a distribution center for mercenaries. This is where they hand over tasks, exchange information, and buy and sell goods. They will also recruit some teammates or team up with other mercenary squads to complete a mission.

Thanks to Ward, they brought the latest news that the Grim Forest has been ruled by a human lord, which led them to receive a reward of four gold coins from --- messenger of the message.

Of course, this is already a lot of wealth for a few people, but they are not satisfied with the status quo~ They are more willing to get the title of "the strongest mercenary team" than gold coins.

And this time, the mission released by the Desert Mercenary King himself is undoubtedly their best chance to prove themselves!

Jadeite bit the straw in his mouth and said vaguely: "But we lack a magician~ I think if we want to explore the heart of the desert, we must hire an ice magician~!" In the heat of the desert, he can make some ice for us to cool off. ”

Falk took two mouthfuls of bread and said, "Then we'll go recruit a magician now." Hi ~~~ guys! Are there any celibate magicians? I want to go to the hinterland of the desert~~ We still have one man left! It's best to be an ice mage~~~!"

Falk stood up in the tavern and shouted. There are often mercenary squads recruiting temporary members, and there are also squad leaders who re-recruit companions when their teammates are attritional.

Hearing Falck's words, three magicians immediately came to apply. Of course, these mage titles are all self-appointed by them .... As for whether they really have two hits... In the law class, I felt that I would have to find out after the interview.

"Hey~~ Hello Farke! I've heard of you, and I've heard of your squad~! You're coming back from the south, aren't you? How about taking me on this trip? ”

A small, older man dressed in a standard wizard's attire. Grey robes and pointed hats, as well as wizards' signature grey beards. It's just that he seems to be a little shorter, only up to Ward's waist.

"Who are you? Do we know each other? Farke asked.

"Oh, my name is Thorin~ You should have heard of me. I used to work at the Clover Circus. ”

Falke rubbed his chin in a reminiscence: "Clover Circus....?" ”

He thought about it for a while, and when he looked at the short wizard in front of him again, he suddenly said, "It's you??" Aren't you the clown in the circus? Hey! Buddy! How did you suddenly become a magician? Oh no, it's a wizard! Did you have any bizarre encounters? ”

The little old man named Thorin smiled and stroked his beard: "Yes, yes~~~ Of course I have a bizarre encounter!" I'm telling you, the circus I used to be in has gone out of business! ”

“... What kind of bizarre encounter is this? Ward grumbled.

"No, no, no~~~~" The little wizard shook his hand and said, "It's not just that it's going out of business, our boss also owes a lot of money!" It is said that he borrowed the usury of the Kuroshio Octopus's family, and was chased and killed by those pirates, so he fled all the way to the Great Desert~~ As you know, the Northland Desert is the world of the mercenary king, and even the octopus that runs rampant on the sea does not dare to dock here. ”

"So what? Does this have anything to do with you becoming a wizard? Faco asked again.

"Of course it matters~! Because I followed him all the way away, and while passing through the new holy city of Cyprias, I ran into an old wizard who was recruiting apprentices! I just became his inheritor by accident. ”

"Inheritor? Sorcerer? I didn't know how easy and casual it would be for a wizard to take on an apprentice? ”

Falke clearly didn't believe what he said, and asked, "Can you tell me about becoming his successor... Or is it an apprentice, has you given something? ”

Na Sorin proudly patted the gray robe on his body: "Of course~~~ Look at that! A wizard's outfit, and this wooden staff~! ”

Jadeite looked at the old wizard's robe and wizard hat, and the wooden staff that was even more broken than the wooden staff she used to have, and asked uncertainly, "So... Can you become a wizard by wearing this outfit? ”

"Hey~~~ Little girl, of course not, it's definitely not that simple! I also bought a book from him for five silver coins... And voila! That's how I learned from this to become a real wizard! ”

As he spoke, Thorin took a book out of his bosom.

Falk took it and looked at it, and it read "A Quick Guide to Wizards, for those who want to explore the wizarding world." ”

Falke read it out with some confusion, "Enthusiasts? ”

He flipped through the book and saw a row of small letters in the lower right corner of the back.

"The selling price.... Twenty copper coins??? Well, Thorin .... It seems that our team can't afford to hire a great wizard like you, so please find another job! ”

Falke rolled his eyes and tossed the precious magic book back to the poor deceived man in front of him.

But the little old man named Thorin looked disappointed and said, "Oh... Well, it looks like we're not here yet. I will come to this tavern often if you guys need it...."

"Okay, okay, I know~ If we need it, we will definitely come to you!"

Falke took his words and waved him away.
