He had already heard the sound of a dog barking, and Sun Chenghuan naturally didn't dare to hide in the bushes anymore. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The cat bent over, away from the direction of the sound of the dog barking from the bushes, Sun Chenghuan quickly entered the state of escape again.

It's just that when he left the bushes, he kept an eye on it.

The seven arrows he pulled out of his body at hand could somewhat help him disperse the smell, so he threw the arrows in seven different directions with different strengths.

In two directions, in order to make the smell more pronounced, he also took off his bloodstained shirt and pants and strung them on two arrows.

Eight directions, it should be able to delay these people who search for themselves somewhat, right?

......

This is a forest located between the central desert and the eastern plain of the Ace Continent, with a vast territory, occupying a large territory in the southwest of the Ace Continent, which has existed since the existence of the Ace Continent, and the two rivers flowing out of the highest peak in this forest are the "Mother River" of the Musk Country located in the east of the Ace Continent.

Therefore, it is not difficult to find a stream in such a forest that can be used to wash away the smell of the body.

In a dark wood, he escaped two chance encounters with bears and wolves, and after walking for an unknown amount of time, Sun Chenghuan encountered such a stream.

The water is very clean, and if it is during the day, it is estimated that it is crystal clear.

Sun Chenghuan didn't say a word, and jumped in directly.

Go inside and wash off the only smell left on your body, and then you can think about how to return to Xiguan Station.

It's been more than five hours since he used the cost of his power magic on himself outside the station.

In another two hours, it will be dawn.

Soaking in the stream, Sun Chenghuan was not as comfortable as it seemed.

Although soaking in such a cold stream on a hot summer day, washing away not only the sweat stains on his body, but also the fatigue of the hard work when he escaped, it was impossible for him to completely let down his guard here after all.

He's still on the run.

Drifting down the stream with his back to the sky, for Sun Chenghuan, the meaning of avoiding tracking is still far more than resting.

Drifting down the stream like this, even if it is a hound with a good nose, it is difficult to track Sun Chenghuan's scent.

After floating for half an hour, Sun Chenghuan, who was resting with his eyes closed, finally regained some of his spirits.

Of course, the main reason why he could not continue to float down the stream was that he found a bonfire on the shore that had not yet been extinguished.

In a dark forest, such a light is particularly eye-catching.

Next to the campfire, there is a tent.

Apparently, a man who was an adventurer in the forest lived here.

He had to do something to make sure who he was and if he was going to cause him any trouble.

You know, it's a madman who is chasing you behind, and if such an explorer who sleeps here is inexplicably implicated by himself, he will probably feel guilty for a long time......

Crawling out of the stream, Sun Chenghuan changed into a new set of clothes, tied his wet hair back behind his head, and walked directly towards the bonfire.

Before he could get to the place, a fireball flew over.

Sun Chenghuan hurriedly dodged over, and then added an anti-magic shield to his body.

"Hello, I'm passing through here...... If I accidentally disturb you...... I'm sorry, but there may be pursuers coming over in a while, and I would like to remind you ......"

Sun Chenghuan said very politely.

Although in fact, he felt that he was not afraid of this explorer.

A truly powerful magician, no one would greet people with fireball skills, right?

Merely......

"Aren't you Sun Chenghuan, why are you here?"

In the tent, a man walked out.

“...... Anthony senior, why are you here?" Sun Chenghuan was stunned.

Yes, the person who came out of the tent, Sun Chenghuan knew. The white-bearded old man I saw outside Yingao City a few years ago was once the top existence of a magician on this continent.

Master Anthony Dace.

"I ...... He was chased and killed, and fled here. The guy chasing me behind me is a madman, senior, you'd better get out of here quickly, don't get involved. Sun Chenghuan hurriedly said.

If he had met Anthony who had an old relationship with him two thousand years ago, Sun Chenghuan would have a sense of security immediately.

Now......

Except for the infinite instantaneous fireball technique, he probably doesn't have any other skills.

"Who is chasing you? You deceived little Irene, and then the Great Sage chased and killed you?" Anthony walked to Sun Chenghuan's side with a smile and patted him on the shoulder, "It's okay, I've found a lot of things in the past three years...... I also understood a lot of things. ”

“...... The opponent's martial arts are very powerful. Sun Chenghuan's heart settled down a little, especially the sentence that understood a lot of things, which made him suddenly have confidence in the white-bearded old man in front of him.

yes, what kind of person is this......

"Martial arts?" Anthony smiled, and then, for a moment, the words came to his lips.

A golden hood enclosed both of them.

“...... What is this?"

"Oh, a magic I comprehended, anyway, this thing can't be opened with the current magic or martial arts. Maybe the average person can't even see us anymore, don't worry. Anthony smiled and shook his head, "Come, sit down and talk, I really didn't expect to meet you here after three years of farewell outside the city......

“...... Well. Sun Chenghuan looked at Anthony with a calm smile on his face, and could only settle down.

yes, what are you afraid of! The sky is falling, and the tall man is on top.

How many people on this continent are taller than the old man in front of them?

"How did you come here, isn't this west of Merth? aren't you from the east......

"Oh, these three years, ......"

Sun Chenghuan sat by the campfire, lit up the fire a little, and began to tell the story.

From going to the Second Academy three years ago, to Erin who follows her, and the Great Sage who prays in tears in the cave every day......

In the past three years, he has experienced everything related to Anthony, and he has slowly talked about it.

"So, Erin is already following you?" When the story was finished, Anthony nodded at Sun Chenghuan and asked the first question he had heard about the story for so long.

"Hmm...... But...... I can't go back to Mills this time, and I don't know where she will go......" The topic said this, Sun Chenghuan's face became a little gray.

"You're not with that Corina ...... It's useless for Erin to follow you, right?" Anthony laughed.

Sun Chenghuan was stunned.

"We've been together in the Void for so many years, and I've seen her as if she were my own granddaughter. Anthony looked at Sun Chenghuan's strange expression and hurriedly said. "I just care about her. ”

“...... She's my sister. Sun Chenghuan really felt weird, "Why, senior, do you think I took her because I ......?"

"Sister?"

"yes! I feel like she's my own sister. Sun Chenghuan nodded seriously.

"Really?" said Anthony, with a teasing look on his face, "And you still left her at Mills like that?"

"I didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing at first!" Sun Chenghuan nodded seriously, "Otherwise, I will definitely bring her with me......"

"With her?"

"Hmm. ”

"Are you sure she'll want to come with you?" Anthony laughed, looking very happy, "What's so good about being with you!"

"This ......" Sun Chenghuan was stunned for a moment and scratched his head.

Indeed, she doesn't seem to have much to do with herself.

In the past three years, Erin has spent hiding under the curtain of holy light, and it seems that she has spent more time than she has been out of the sky.

Maybe......

"I just think she's still happy when she's with me, right?"

Sun Chenghuan's words were a little tentative.

Anthony smiled and nodded, not saying anything more.

It seems a bit unsatisfying.

Again, it seems......

Sun Chenghuan doesn't understand very well.

"Senior, why are you in this place?"

"Oh, I'm looking for something. ”

"Looking for something, what's ...... in this forest?"

"A sacred place for magicians. Anthony's expression instantly became a little gloomy and a little emotional.

Shrine?

Sun Chenghuan was stunned for a moment and frowned.

And then it was just that.

"Mage Tower?"

It can only be this, once, the holy land of all the magicians in the Ace Continent.

"Hmm. Anthony nodded.

"Original...... The Mage Tower is in the territory of the Merce Country?" Sun Chenghuan seemed to have heard some great news.

"Otherwise, why do you think that when the kingdoms of Astranna, Carter, and Langudu, Merce were just a principality?" Anthony shook his head, "It's because the Mage's Tower and the Temple of the Holy Maiden are all in Merth." ”

Sun Chenghuan suddenly felt that his background seemed to have become a little more noble......

"The Mage Tower...... Senior, can you still find the ruins?" Sun Chenghuan suddenly became curious.

More than a thousand years ago, the last Great Master was killed by the soldiers of Penglai Kingdom, and after that, it was as if the Mage Tower had never existed.

Whether it is the four countries that were re-established on the Ace continent, or the Penglai country, there is no record of the mage tower.

Whether it's the location, or the form of existence.

Disappeared into thin air.

The magic tower that once illuminated the entire Ace Continent didn't even have a single tile left.

For more than a thousand years, there have been countless explorers who have traveled all over the continent of Ace to find traces of the Mage Tower.

Nothing to gain.

Sun Chenghuan didn't doubt it at all, if there was anyone else on the Ace Continent who could find the location of the Mage Tower......

Only this white-bearded old man in front of him.

"Absolutely. It took me more than fifty years to get into that place. Anthony sighed.

"That'...... You've been looking for three whole years?"

"Hmmm......"

"Did you find it?"

"Hmm. ”

"Where...... I won't ......" Sun Chenghuan had a strange expression on his face.

"That's right, this is it. ”

Anthony smiled wryly.

He patted the side of where he was sitting.

The atmosphere fell silent all at once.

"Someone is coming. Anthony abruptly changed the subject.

"Hmm...... Pursuers. ”

Sun Chenghuan hurriedly stood up and put on a look of preparing to fight.

"What's the hurry!" Anthony smiled and waved his hand, silently reciting two incantations.

Reach out and wave.

"Sit down. ”

“...... What's wrong?" Sun Chenghuan looked around, looking confused.

"They're just ordinary people, and they definitely can't see us now...... By the way, Erin, come out, if you don't come in, you'll be found out by them. ”

“...... Erin?" Sun Chenghuan's face was ridiculous.
