Chapter 12: The Disappearance of Weapon Fragments
【Phoenix Country・A Forest】
The night began to fall, and now without the help of Wu Sheng and Chic, Tianxi has returned to the passive era of a person, and even worse, she has to protect the Purple Moon Prince, a person who doesn't even have the ability to think normally!
"Before Shen Mo sends out a summoning spell, let's find a place to hide!" Tianxi found a tree hole of three or four square meters, she and Ziyue drilled into it, she sealed the hole with branches and leaves, and then summoned her bazooka, aimed at the hole, ready to fight at any time.

Tianxi held a magic stone in one hand, recited a spell, and a ball of light appeared in the other hand, which is illumination, that is, the most basic magic skill. There are 26 Philosopher's Stones in Tianxi, and one Philosopher's Stone is about to be consumed for one night's illumination, so if nothing else, the Philosopher's Stone is still enough. Tonight is a big night, I can't fall asleep!

The Empress and her assistant, a little woman, walked side by side.
"That scumbag man is such a piece of rubbish, he lost Ziyue so quickly. ”
"It's okay, Hongming has his own ideas," said the Empress, "Don't we still have 'them' to help?"
"Yes, as long as 'them' are there, no matter where Ziyue is taken, he will go to the Machine City on time. "But why should 'they' help us?" said the little woman.
"The mechanical city is easy to defend and difficult to attack, alas, I see," the empress shook her head helplessly, "Maybe only I can understand the purpose of 'them', but I can't stop 'them'." ”
"Only the Empress can understand?" the little woman wondered.

In the dark night, the army of adventurers continued on their way.
In the carriage, False Ziyue was lying on the bed, and Tulips were leaning against the window.
The fake purple moon was curious, what the tulips had been peeking at.
Outside the carriage, Shen Mo, who was riding on a white horse, kept his eyes closed, where did Wu Sheng go? In the evening attack, three people disappeared from the logistics department -- an archer, a scout mage, and Wu Sheng.
"It's okay," Shen Mo thought, "even if I'm the only one left, I'm going to continue, I'm going to enter the Machine City." ”
Suddenly, Shen Mo felt that there was a large group of people lurking in ambush not far ahead, and they seemed to be much stronger than the previous group in terms of number and strength.
Just like the last raid, Shen Mo didn't inform anyone. He felt that war would inevitably lead to death, and that it had nothing to do with him whether one side lost or which side was righteous. When he was a child, his mother, a kind and gentle person, told him, "If you want to protect everything, you can't protect anything." What we have to do is to dedicate our strength to the maximum. ”
"Why is there such a short interval between the two attacks?" Shen Mo didn't understand.
A huge impact of magic rushed towards Shen Mo's side.
"Why did you attack this side in the first place?" Shen Mo thought.
Since he knew the attack in advance, Shen Mo easily dodged it. However, the carriage next to Shen Mo was blown up, and the elite guards next to the carriage were slightly injured. Shen Mo was not like them, he didn't think about carrying out this task seriously, he had no idea of protecting the carriage at all.
The tulips in the carriage escaped in time, but were also slightly injured. The fake purple moon failed to escape in time and was buried in the rubble of the carriage.
Because Shen Mo was in the center of the adventurer's army, those melee enemies had not yet rushed in, and the sky was full of colorful light, and Shen Mo knew that it was all magic attacking him.
There are so many magic attacks, they can only be blocked with a shield, Shen Mo raised his hands, recited a short spell, and a shield with a diameter of about three meters appeared on him, and he constantly released magic to resist the continuous attacks.
Tulip was wounded in the middle of the magical attack, blood pouring out of her leg, and she slowly crawled towards Shen Mo's shield.
"Maybe she's saved. Shen Mo thought to himself, he let the tulip pass through the magic shield.
Suddenly, a giant sword fell from the sky and rushed straight towards Shen Mo! The shield would definitely not be able to block the impact of the giant sword, Shen Mo hurriedly flashed to the side, but unexpectedly, Tulip took the opportunity to stab a dagger into Shen Mo's heart!
Black blood stained Shen Mo's white robes.
Shen Mo looked at the tulip suspiciously.
"My father is dead," Tulip said calmly, "I found that black magic on the spot, and I know that only you have it." ”
"Father said," Tulip continued, "you're going to kill him sooner or later." ”
"My magic...... Could it be that he ...... "Shen Mo fell, his shield shattered, and a strong magical attack rushed towards Shen Mo and Tulip."
......
Early in the morning, Wu Sheng finally came back from training.
The entire army of adventurers was draped in a bleak white—white bandages everywhere, and the total number of the team seemed to be reduced by half.
Everyone was silent, only a few aunts from the logistics department chattered and discussed.
"It's so far away from the Gem Country, why was it attacked so quickly......"
Wu Sheng lay on the wooden barrel containing the food and began to cry.
【Phoenix Country・A Forest】
Tianxi woke up, the entrance of the tree hole was opened, and the purple moon was gone!
First she didn't keep up, then Shen Mo's weapon fragments disappeared, and now even Ziyue is gone! Tianxi was really devastated, she sat on the ground, wanting to cry without tears.
Tianxi stared at the entrance of the cave in a daze for a while, and then, standing up, it can be seen from the overall position of the branches scattered on the side of the cave that the entrance of the cave was opened from the inside, and the branches were wet on one side and dry on the other, and Ziyue should not have gone far.
Tianxi ran out, because the grass on the ground was sprinkled with a layer of dew, and there was a clear trace on the path that Ziyue had walked.
It didn't take long for Tianxi to find Ziyue, who was lying on a white animal that looked like a big cat, the cat-like animal was more than three meters long, with many black stripes on its body, and it also had the word "Wang" on its forehead. Some other small various animals, such as cats, rabbits, sparrows, etc., gather around the white "big cats", and they are all lazily basking in the sun, including the Purple Moon.
"Fortunately, this is not an Enchanted Forest," Tianxi thought to himself, "There are magical beasts in the Enchanted Forest, and Ziyue definitely can't be as leisurely as she is now." ”
As Tianxi approached Ziyue, the animals suddenly became vigilant, and some animals stood up and kept staring at Tianxi. Especially the white "big cat", his eyes became very fierce, and he seemed to want to eat Tianxi.
Tianxi took a few steps back, "Ziyue, come here!" Come here, Ziyue ......"
No matter what Tianxi called, Ziyue had been lying lazily on the white "big cat", rubbing her face on the "big cat's" fluffy belly a few times from time to time.
"It seems that it can only be solved by force. Tianxi picked up the bazooka and aimed at the purple moon.
Suddenly, the animals fled in a panic away from Tianxi, and Ziyue fell to the ground.
"Hehe, I finally know I'm afraid!" Tianxi put down the bazooka.
No, I don't think I've seen this scene before? Tianxi turned around, and she saw a figure in the distance, it was chic!
Tianxi happily ran towards Chic, and when she was less than ten meters away from Chic, she stopped.
Although the person in front of him is the same height, body shape and hair color as chic, and even his appearance is quite similar, he is not chic.
"Who are you?" Tianxi stepped back.
"I'm an adventurer who came here to explore, and when I got lost, I heard your cry and came to see. The boy smiled. He was dressed in fashionable clothes, and silver jewelry was hung on his neck, ears, hands, and belt, and he looked like a delinquent teenager.
"Really? Would you like to join us? My sister and I are also lost. Tianxi smiled.
What is there to explore alone in an ordinary forest? Tianxi didn't express his doubts, and she didn't have to say it, she didn't even have a reasonable reason, he definitely didn't take Tianxi seriously. Not to poke him and not to make the situation tense may be the best option.
"My name is Little Wolf. The young man walked towards Tianxi, "What about you?"
"Tianxi. ”
"When you first saw me, you seemed to like me very much, why don't you come here now?"
"I thought you were a friend of mine, you look alike. ”
"Is he also a wolf beast?"
"Hmm. ”
"What's his name?"
"Chic. ”
"I haven't heard of it," the little wolf chuckled, "it's a fake name, isn't it? Don't be fooled by your friends! Wolves are cunning." ”
The little wolf bypassed Tianxi and went to help Ziyue.
Ziyue wanted to scratch the little wolf's face, but she didn't expect to be caught by the little wolf.
"Is she your sister?" asked the little wolf.
"Yes, her name is Satsuki. ”
Tianxi remembered that even such a powerful character as the Empress of the Phoenix Kingdom was scratched by Ziyue. Either the little wolf is a powerful character with super fast reactions, or the little wolf knows that Ziyue will arrest people, which also means that the little wolf is a related person in the prince's escort plan!
