CHAPTER XXIII

The horses had already been prepared, and the foodie was about to get on the horse as soon as he packed his belongings, but Zazana shouted: "Don't go, I haven't eaten enough, or I'll tell my people to pause for a while, and then I'll chase you when I'm full." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Fast legs pointed at Zazana and said, "What about this little girl?

Mira looked at the little girl who really didn't look like a little girl: "Night Feather's riding skills are better than mine, let him take the dwarf, and everyone else will pay attention to cover him." ”

Zazana was placed across the saddle, and she couldn't stop muttering: "It's rude for you to treat a lady like this, I just ate, and now my stomach is very uncomfortable, and it would be bad if I got a stomach ulcer." You can't run away anyway, so why don't you put me down? I'll be sure to intercede for you. ”

Mira ignored her, and when she looked back, the torch dragons were getting closer and closer, and she was startled: "These desert dwarves are short-legged and can run faster than horses?"

The little sparrow said loudly: "They are blessed with acceleration magic, and they are indeed running fast now, but after a while, the magic effect will disappear, and they will not be able to catch up with us." ”

Mira shook her head: "Magical effects, aren't you a magician? ”

The little sparrow's voice suddenly decreased: "I'm just a trainee magician, and there is no dispel magic in the fire system. ”

Zazana laughed: "The Great Elder is also here, so you can't escape." The Great Elder's greatest skill is not acceleration magic, but the magnetic storm giants he summoned are powerful. ”

Mira was about to ask, but suddenly the wind was whistling in her ears, and she saw through the starlight two pillars of wind rising from the flat ground in front of her, and the flying sand and rocks swept all the way. The pillar of wind got closer and closer, and gradually mingled into a two-story giant, with lightning all over its body, and its gestures were like clouds in the wind, and it strode towards the galloping horse.

The big guy raised his eyes and exclaimed, "What a big guy, this can't be the legendary Titan, right?"

A cold glint flashed in one-eyed eyes: "It doesn't matter what kind of giant he is, he directly slashed things with a sword." As soon as he unsheathed his sword, it seemed to have been snatched by someone's hand, and it was swept into the giant's body of wind and lightning, and turned into crumbs.

Everyone was shocked, and they all took out their weapons and prepared to fight, but whether it was a fast-legged dagger or a large sword, they were sucked away in the same way, and after incorporating so many debris, the giant's illusory body gradually materialized.

Zazana said with a smile: "It's said that it's a magnetic storm giant, any kind of metal weapon will be sucked away by magnetism, you can't beat it, so it's better to surrender." ”

The little sparrow said hatefully: "That's not necessarily, my staff is not metal, eat my fireball." With a flick of her staff, she fired an orange fireball and flew lightly towards the giant.

Seeing that the fireball was about to float to the giant, he rolled it back with a light breath, and instead burned half of the little sparrow's own hair. The shouting and killing sound became clearer and clearer, and Zazana sighed and said: "Alas, you said that you can't beat it, why don't you put me down now, apologize, and compensate me for ten more, no, twenty skewers, and I will forgive you for offending me." ”

Night Feather suddenly lifted Zazana up, shouted and then threw it to the foodie next to her, the foodie hurriedly opened his hands and hugged her, and he didn't know where to touch it in a panic, causing Zazana to scream repeatedly. The foodie is also in his heart, this female dwarf has a wolf appearance, but the skin on her body is very delicate, he can't help but twist his fingers, as if he is having an aftertaste.

Mira asked puzzledly, "Night Feather, what are you doing?" Night Feather said lightly: "My weapon is not metal. He secured his mount with his legs, pulled out a slingshot from his bosom, and the stone projectiles flew out like beads.

Strange to say, it was obviously a child's house-like thing, but it caused great damage to the magnetic storm giant, and every time it was hit by a stone bullet, the giant's illusory body like a cloud of smoke was about to be damaged, as if it had been washed away by the rapids and collapsed embankment. The giant hissed and roared, and between its hands slowly condensed a small ball of electric light, and it grew up at a speed visible to the naked eye.

One-Eyed shouted: "It's not good, it's the Thunder of the Titans, everyone disperse, don't be served by him." ”

Everyone hurriedly rode their horses and ran away, but Mira saw Ye Yu standing motionless in place, and hurriedly said: "Night Feather, quickly dodge, that thunder ball will die if it falls down." ”

Night Feather bit her lip lightly and said, "I will never die here, Tris is still at home waiting for me to go back." The stone bullet in his hand was aimed at the giant's head and shot non-stop, seeing the small ball in the giant's hand gradually take shape, the giant screamed, and the entire head was blown away, and the huge body suddenly turned into a beam of wind and dissipated without a trace.

Mira was overjoyed and gathered everyone together to continue running, while the dwarven pursuers behind him seemed to have an accelerated effect and were quickly distanced. Zazana finally sensed that something was wrong, and lay on the back of the foodie horse with a handful of snot and tears: "I want to go home, you bad people, let me go." ”

The war horse was in a hurry just now, and after running for a while, it looked a little out of strength, but fortunately, the dwarves were also far away, so Mira arranged for everyone to get off the horse first to rest their strength. Seeing the female dwarf crying profusely, the foodie somehow found a rag that couldn't see her true face and wiped her face, Zazana wiped it a few times and suddenly burst into a smile: "This is cumin-flavored." ”

Through Zazana's cross-examination, Mira finally got a general idea of the current situation. Due to the bad reputation of the Imperial army, all forces in the desert have united to defend against foreign aggression, and Zazana's Stormhammer tribe has also moved to the edge of the desert under the instructions of the desert dwarf king. The other day, the Stormhammers had been ordered to escort a group of humans, and they had removed their outposts at the edge of the desert and sent them into the Gipps Desert, where they remained waiting to be brought back to the desert.

Mira touched her chin and said, "There is a conspiracy, there must be a conspiracy, these sand thieves must be behind us, we should report this matter to the Kempinski City Lord immediately." ”

The foodie pointed at the female dwarf, "Then what should she do?"

Zazana said pitifully: "I have told you everything I know, you let me go, I want to go home." ”

Mira said categorically, "No, these are just one-sided words, we have to send her back to the barracks, maybe we can ask for more information, and if it weren't for her testimony, no one else would believe that we had completed our mission." ”

As she approached the small town of Kemir, Mira saw a dense crowd around the barracks, many of whom were crying and shouting about something, and some were simply kneeling at the barracks' door. Ye Yu said lightly: "Looking at the outfits of these people, they should all be gypsy, probably because of the food problem." ”

The steward of the mercenary union attached great importance to the information brought back by Mira, and directly pulled him into the big tent. It was the first time for Mira to enter the Chinese army's tent, and he was very curious about everything, but the first thing he saw after entering made him almost speechless with surprise.

A big fat man dressed in armor and wearing all kinds of ornaments and medals was standing in the middle of the tent with an angry face, like a teapot spewing steam. At his feet, there were more than a dozen old men, clinging to his thighs and crying: "My lord, Dashuai, you can't treat us like this, if you don't give some food, our whole family will starve to death." Some shouted: "My lord, you have been trading with the east over the years, and our family has contributed a lot, so you can't ignore us." Another old man pointed to the nose of the teapot and scolded: "Kempinski, I am your uncle, I came to this desert in accordance with the family's arrangement, do you want to starve me to death?"

Kempinski's face was full of embarrassment, and he looked at the guards around him who were all holding back a smile, but no one stepped forward to help, and suddenly he saw the steward of the mercenary union, and immediately shook his body, and asked, "What's the matter?"

After listening to the steward's report, Kempinski's eyes narrowed, and he smiled sadly: "You said that you are all loyal to the empire and to my family. But," he said, pointing to Mira and Zazana, who were standing at the tent gate, "according to the information I have received, there have been many sand pirates who have infiltrated the Gipples to carry out sabotage, and have been staying in the desert these days. Hmph, concealing the enemy's situation is treason, and it would be good if I didn't behead you to show the public, and you still dare to ask me for food. ”

After the dazed-looking old man was taken away, Kempinski listened carefully to Mira's report and patted her on the shoulder as a sign of encouragement. Mira immediately felt that the bones in her body were a few taels lighter, and she was almost about to choke up and say that she was willing to die for the adult, and suddenly saw Zazana standing aside as if nothing happened, and asked, "My lord, this dwarf knows so much, can I take her away?"

Kempinski's face immediately stiffened: "If you are not of my race, your heart will be different, this garbage of the alien race, I will use it to sacrifice the flag in two days, so naturally I can't let you take it away." ”

Zazana, who was quickly tied up, cried and cursed loudly: "Let me go back, Mira, you liar, you said I would be fine when I finished asking." You will not die well, you should go to hell with your tongue plucked. Dad, Great Elder, come and save me. ”

That night, Mira tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, and Zazana's heart-rending cries seemed to echo in her ears all the time.

In a daze, Mira felt a little itchy in her stomach, and he muttered, "Stop playing, I fell asleep late yesterday, and I'm going to lie down a little longer today." He was about to reach out to grab it, but he came across a cold and sharp object, and suddenly woke up from his sleep. When I looked up, the others in the tent were gone, but there were several heavily armed soldiers who coldly pointed their guns at them: "Your crime has been committed, and your lord has ordered us to arrest you." ”
