Stormwind, the 'drunken' winery. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Albert Violet, the elder magician. ”

It was a young man with a swagger, sitting on a couch at the end of the hall, echoes echoing in the slightly empty hall.

"Hello, sir. Albert bowed slightly and performed a standard mage salute, "Thank you for helping me, I will remember this kindness and never forget it." ”

"It's good to know how to be grateful. The young man smiled.

"Yes, people should know how to be grateful. Albert nodded, repeating the other's words.

"Stay close to me, my friend. The young man beckoned Albert, who was standing in the doorway, to sit beside him.

Albert nodded, walked five meters forward, and sat down on another couch, "Pardon me, sir, what's your name?"

"Brandon, Brandon Moon. The young man looked into Albert's eyes and said lightly. However, this gentle word sounded like thunder in Albert's ears, and he was extremely shocked.

"Excuse me, your identity. Albert stood up from the couch, a little reserved.

Yueji is the national flower of Auston and the surname of Auston royalty, and it is unimaginable that the young man is a member of the royal family.

"Sit down and talk, my friend. Brandon said lightly, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and the warm smile greatly relieved Albert's tension.

Albert nodded, sat down stiffly, straightened up, and the smile on his face was a little stiff. And for all this, Brandon saw it in his eyes, he didn't show anything in his words and expressions, he seemed very indifferent, but deep down he felt very disdainful.

Bullshit Ancient Mage, that's it, he thought to himself.

"With all due respect, Lord Brandon, may I ask you who you are. Albert repeated.

"Oh, sorry, I'm a little distracted. Brandon came back to his senses and nodded to the other gentlemanly in apology, "I'm the Grand Prince of Auston." ”

"You are His Royal Highness!" Albert exclaimed, as if he had been electrocuted, as if he had been electrocuted. His eyes almost popped out, and his mouth was wide open enough to fit an egg.

Brandon glanced at Albert, and the disdain in his heart deepened.

"Thank you again for your help, Your Highness. Albert immediately put on a sycophantic smile.

"It's nothing, we're friends. Brandon looked at Albert and said lightly, with a mocking look in his eyes.

"It's a great honor to be friends with you. Albert nodded repeatedly, his eyes full of excitement. He caught the other man's eyes and understood the meaning. However, Albert did not have any displeasure in this, not because of the identity of the other party, but because it was all his plan. To be exact, Kyle's plan for him.

Albert did not want to be a pawn of these big names.

No one is going to take a flattering villain in their eyes, and that's Kyle's plan.

Looking at Albert's face, Brandon was in a bad mood, "Would you like to join me?" His words were slightly sloppy.

"Of course. Albert nodded repeatedly, knowing that there was no escape. The other party will not save him for no reason, and if he refuses, he will definitely not be able to leave alive.

Along the way, this hotel was garrisoned by at least two hundred golden warriors.

In this empty hall, there are also dozens of masters hidden, and it is believed that as long as he does not say a word, he will be killed on the spot.

All Albert wanted to do was to ruin Brandon's impression of him and make the other party dislike him. A prince who is likely to become a king in the future will not lack talent around him, and it won't be long before he will be gradually forgotten by Brandon.

Of course, Albert will not forget the grace of saving his life, and if the other party needs him in the future, he will not refuse.

In the evening, Albert left the 'drunk' estate.

It turned out as he imagined, and Brandon sent him away without even inviting him to dinner.

However, Albert was not happy at the moment, not regretting not having a solid backer, but thinking about the unfinished task. He had to hurry. Now his escape must be due to the vigilance of Count Sakura, and perhaps the gold mine will be destroyed. It is not difficult to imagine that if Count Sakura was not a fool, he would have reported the gold mines to the royal family, and in order to keep his mouth shut, the civilians imprisoned in the gold mines would have suffered a catastrophe.

Before Count Sakura can make a move, he must rescue the civilians in the gold mines.

That was his duty, his duty as a magician.

"Miser, you have a lot of friends, and of course, you get into more trouble than your friends. ”

A joking voice suddenly sounded, and Albert subconsciously looked up to see a man in a black robe leaning against the corner.

"Thank you for your help, Catherine. He heard the other man's voice and walked over with a smile, knowing very well that the female shooter who was shooting from the high ground was Catherine.

"I'm just in it for pay. Catherine shrugged and said without thinking.

"But I don't have any money. Albert pointed to his tattered clothes, and Brandon really hated him so much that he didn't even give him a clean set of clothes.

"No, I've gotten what I've gotten paid. Catherine smiled, unloaded her backpack and threw it to Albert, "Forgot it, you gave me your enchanted equipment for safekeeping before you went undercover at Tiger Head Peak." ”

"You took my enchanted equipment?" Albert said dissatisfied, opening his backpack and rummaging through it.

"Not all, I didn't touch those valuable shoes. Catherine said earnestly, as if she had done something very holy.

"Damn, give it back to me, you're stealing. Albert looked at the other party helplessly, "You only shot a few arrows, and those are all intermediate-level enchanted equipment." He said through gritted teeth.

"You shouldn't think so. Catherine shook her head, "If I don't keep it for you, all your belongings will be gone." ”

"Oh, yes, what a pleasant explanation. Albert rolled his eyes, "I should thank you for leaving behind the most valuable boot armor, 'kind' Miss Catherine." He gritted his teeth and said that when he said the word 'kindness', his teeth were about to crush.

"Don't thank me," Catherine looked at Albert, who was half her head, slightly disappointed, "You're not tall, but you're not small." Just as Albert was about to retort, Catherine spoke again, "I have come not only to save you, but for something more important. ”

"What it is. Albert clenched his fists, resisting the urge to strip Catherine of her equipment.

"New mission. Catherine smiled, as if she could see through what Albert was thinking, and took a few steps back, "I got a notice from the Mage Guild, perhaps because I realized that the task was too difficult, and your elite member promotion mission has changed, and you only need to kill the Crouching Tiger King mission to complete it, of course, if you can eradicate the Crouching Tiger bandits, you can also get some additional rewards." ”

"That's really good news. Albert nodded and looked at Catherine, "But not enough to get our business done." ”

"You're the most angry man I've ever met, and I'll continue to help you, don't you want an extra reward?" said Catherine, rightly unaware of her mistake from beginning to end,

"For your sake. Albert said helplessly.

Human favor cannot be measured by gold coins, no matter what the purpose, it is an indisputable fact that the other party saved him.

The wind is howling on the Hushou Peak in the Crouching Tiger Mountains.

Figures hide in the bushes or canopy, closely monitoring the surrounding movements.

"It's been three days, and Albert won't have an accident. Barrett slowly leaned over to Kyle's side and said in a low voice.

Despite the loss of an arm, he did not recuperate his weakened body, and resolutely chose to help Albert complete the task. Not only him, but Kyle, Boris, Charlotte, Yarman, and his girlfriend Leona have never left. Many of the gladiators who had fought alongside them did not go either, and are still with them, these people trusted Albert and preferred to follow the boy who gave them courage and freedom.

"Rest assured, Albert will be fine. Kyle said lightly.

"Goo-goo-goo-goo. ”

At this moment, a string of owls suddenly sounded in the canopy.

"Ready to fight, someone is coming. Barrett whispered, gripped the hilt of the greatsword and stared straight ahead.

In the past three days, they have killed hundreds of scouts who delivered the news, and the scouts are getting stronger and stronger, so they have to be more serious.

The bushes shook, and then a huge black leopard burst out. Everyone was stunned, did not move, took a breath, and continued to wait. After another moment, a red-haired teenager walked side by side with a fair-skinned, tall female elf.

"Albert!"

The crowd let down their vigilance and came out to Albert's side.

"That's right, I'm alive. Albert shrugged and patted Babin on the arm, he wanted to pat his shoulder, but unfortunately he couldn't reach it.

"Time is running out, I'll assign a task. Whenever something happens, Kyle will put away his usual laughter and become a wise decision-maker, shouldering the responsibility of directing the overall situation.

Of course, those who don't know Kyle won't necessarily buy it.

"I only follow Albert's orders. Bawin's words represent the hearts of the gladiators.

These gladiators, who were freed but did not leave, were motivated by reverence for Albert, regardless of age.

"We are friends. Albert smiled, patted Babin's arm again, and looked around at all the gladiators, "But now we all have to obey Kyle, he's smarter than we are, and you'll understand when this battle is over." ”

"I hope so. Bawen nodded, he didn't want to confront Albert, but he could tell that he wasn't so reluctant.

"Can I continue?" Kyle's face didn't change, and it wasn't once or twice that the gladiators had questioned him in the past few days.

Everyone nodded, not saying a word, and Kyle nodded in satisfaction before adding, "Here's my plan. ”
