RAYNALD SAT IN THE CARRIAGE, LOOKING OUT THE WINDOW AT THE SCENERY TO PASS THE TIME, AT THIS TIME HE MISSED THE MOBILE PHONE AND IPAD ON EARTH, HE COULD LOOK AT THE WEB, CHAT, OR READ A NOVEL. In this boring world, all he can do is to look at the scenery in a daze except for chatting.
He has turned more than a dozen carriages, in this world except for chartered cars, basically no one will run long-distance passenger transportation, too few guests basically can't make money, although Renard has a wallet car, but under a certain hunch, he did not take this road, he chose to buy an ordinary house in a remote corner of the imperial capital, every time he went to a city, he left the coordinates and teleported to this room, and then turned into someone else's appearance and came out to eat and drink, or went back to the school dormitory where he didn't live in other people, turned on the air conditioner and slept well before going back, anyway, he also closed the curtains before leaving。
Because of the peaceful life, the Book of Death is also a bit listless, except for occasionally coming out to exchange a few magic questions with Renard, I don't know what to do when immersed in Renard's spiritual world at other times, and Renard doesn't bother to communicate with it more.
Now the carriage is driving out of the prosperous part of the empire and into the wilderness. There is a natural barrier in the empire, the Ferrer Mountains are also the second border defense line of the empire, the natural barrier in this empire spreads for thousands of kilometers, and there are only three passages in the middle of the thousands of kilometers of mountains, all of which were dug out by unknown powerful beings when the Enriel Kingdom was not established. Naturally, there are outposts of the Empire on these three pathways.
The boss of the carriage and horse shop had already established a good relationship with the soldiers here, and when he got to the bottom of the checkpoint, the boss went up to the officer who was at the gate and giggled for a while, secretly stuffed a cloth bag, and then registered the identities of all the passengers, and let him go. After that, the carriage passed the pass safely, and after leaving the pass, it walked calmly for dozens of minutes, and the Book of Death suddenly said in Renard's heart: "Just now your main star of destiny was shrouded in a dark matter, and the dark matter has signs of eroding your main star of destiny!"
Reynard asked, "What does this mean?" He hadn't heard of the concept of the main planet of fate at all, and there was no mention of it in the library, but he felt that it had something to do with divination. The Book of Death explained, "In the simplest terms, you have a great omen!"
Renard was shocked, he had felt the power of the Book of Death in terms of prophecy, and while secretly putting on several magical equipment on his body, he asked the Book of Death, "Can you know more details?"
The Book of Death was silent for a while: "The future is bleak, there is almost no way to live, but there is a strange starlight that shines on you from nowhere, and there is a glimmer of life in the starlight!"
Renard asked, "Then what should I do?" The Book of Death replied, "Wait and see, it's not hopeless anyway, the prophecy spell won't hint much this time." Renard thought for a moment, "If there is really an irresistible danger, you should be able to teleport me away, right?"
The Book of Death replied, "It's hard to say. My teleportation ability was originally within the calculation of the main star of fate, and the time you hit Schalke, there was not so much danger, because if you can't beat it, I can take you away at any time. But not this time, so there is only one clue: the source of danger is at least the level of a fifth-level mage or eight-trick cultivator who can interfere with spatial teleportation, or a natural disaster of the same level, but the latter is unlikely, because natural disasters generally do not come at only one person. ”
"Can you teleport me away now?" the uncle across from Renard was napping, otherwise he would have noticed that Renard's face was a little pale. The Book of Death says: "Yes, but if a person of this level traces carefully, he can find traces of the broken space in one day, although he can't see the direction of teleportation." This time, it is directly your main star of destiny that is surrounded, and the enemy will definitely be coming at you, if you teleport away, then the matter of your space teleportation as a formal mage will be exposed immediately, and then you will face far more trouble than you imagined. ”
Renard smiled bitterly in his heart, "Then I really can't escape?" replied in the Book of Death: "There is a glimmer of life in everything in heaven and earth. Knowing that he couldn't get more help from the Book of Death, Renard didn't waste any more energy arguing with the Book of Death, he closed his eyes and began to recuperate, ready to deal with any trouble in the best possible condition at any time.
Sure enough, just a few minutes later, several horses running on the flat road suddenly fell together, and the coachman, who had been a little lazy before, shouted: "Which one is lacking in virtue here!" As several horses fell, the car also lost its balance and fell to the side, and the screams in the car were continuous.
Reynard, who had been prepared, jumped straight out of the window, rolled on the ground a few times to regain his balance, and the car fell in front of him. In the process, Renard activated the transformation effect on the robe, turning a robe that looked like a traveling robe into a strong suit suitable for action, and he didn't need to be reminded by the Book of Death, he knew that since he had encountered a trip, then there would definitely be an enemy ambush here.
Renard suddenly had the illusion of being locked on, but the mountains and bushes on both sides blocked his vision too much, making it impossible for him to determine the source, and then he heard a whizzing sound from both sides, and without thinking, he fell directly on the spot based on his experience in dodging bullets in his previous life, and jumped in the other direction after two rolls, adding a mantra shield to himself in the process.
As Renard thought, those whooshing sounds were crossbow arrows shot from the side, but Renard didn't expect that these arrows were also fed, even if they didn't hit the target, these arrows exploded on the ground, and the boom sounded, and Renard vaguely heard the cracking sound of wood chips in front of him, accompanied by the screams of men and women - those people didn't care about the lives of other passengers in order to kill Renard.
Renard is not a virgin, at this time naturally will not say anything righteous and awe-inspiring, taking advantage of the fact that both sides of the line of sight are blocked, he constantly changes his position, while putting on death armor on himself, and then uses the power of a bull on himself, when he absorbs the body of the demon hunting spider, his body is much stronger, although he has not learned fighting skills, but he has the knowledge of his previous life, and the foundation of countless mercenary battles he has seen in this life is combined, and he is no worse than ordinary warriors in hand-to-hand combat. Then with a wave of his hand, he used a spell that he had only used a few times:
The shadow power gathered in his hand and quickly dispersed, leaving behind a strange-looking knife, which was generally red like biological tissue, but with several mouths with sharp teeth open on it, and these mouths constantly made some subtle sounds, which alone could make ordinary people dizzy.
But Renard knew very well that this would not work against his attackers, and in fact he summoned the Blade of Fear and Pain because he was completely unarmed, so he could only make a cameo.
Long with a book, short without a book, these processes add up to less than two seconds, and the smoke from the explosion does not even dissipate to the point where you can see it. Because it was still daytime, Renard saw some figures jumping down from the trees in the distance, and he used the sunlight without thinking, and as the spell array was completed in Renard's mind, a bright pillar of pure white light fell from the sky, and exploded on the ground, and the figures fell down several times with screams.
Renard was stunned: "So weak?" The Book of Death reminded Renard in his heart: "Be careful, they are just covering up!"
At this point, more figures jumped towards Renard with weapons through the smoke of the explosion.
