Chapter Seventy-Three: Adoption (Part II)

Although Jose's offer was tempting, the leader of the horse thieves had a faint sense that something was wrong. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 It wasn't that there was any definite reason to tell that Jose was deceiving them, but he had this feeling in his heart that this seemingly unfathomable magician was actually playing tricks.

It's not that there is any flaw in his words, but that behind the experience and intuition of the horse thief leader for so many years, there are often murderous intentions and dangers hidden behind the interests that are enough to make people get carried away.

I believe I was right!

The leader of the horse thieves immediately calmed down, he was not as easy to fool as his men, and it could even be said that he was the most clever and cunning of this group of horse thieves, if it weren't for this, he would not have been able to recover so many outlaws with just a few henchmen, and in such troubled times, it was impossible to survive with a soft heart.

"Mr. Magician, I'd like to ask you a few more questions!"

After pondering for a long time, the horse thief leader suddenly spoke: "After all, it is a matter of life and death for me and my brothers, and I still want to confirm your request one last time!"

Hearing him say this, José was slightly surprised in his heart, originally he secretly observed the demeanor of these guys, obviously many people, including the leader of the horse thief, were already moved, but he didn't expect this guy to be quite calm, which made José a little vigilant, but the expression on his face did not change at all, just secretly drove the spiritual power, and let the earth element take a few steps forward!

The earth elemental seemed to be a little irritable at the moment, his face was not clearly outlined, but it let out a roar like an angry beast. With each step, the sand and gravel on its body rubbed, and small stones continued to fall down. It walked straight towards the leader of the horse thieves and did not stop until it had only a few steps.

The horse thieves suddenly couldn't bear it, although this big guy didn't look like a good stubble, but there were still a few bold and aggressive guys who showed their swords in their hands, secretly ready for battle, to José's surprise, the cavalry closest to the horse thief leader also immediately straightened their bodies, the spears in their hands were aimed at the earth element, and their movements were very uniform, obviously different from other ordinary horse thieves.

After the leader of the horse thieves finished speaking, he just looked at Jose quietly, although in the dark night, the two sides could not see each other's faces clearly, but Jose could clearly feel that the other party's eyes were firmly locked on him.

"What do you want to ask, my patience is not good, after all, a magician's time is precious, I mean...... At least it's worth more than the lives of your people. ”

When the horse thief leader heard this, he laughed out loud, he didn't pay attention to the threat in Joseph's words, but just glanced at Joseph lightly:

"You said that you are a magician, we don't doubt it, we just wonder, how could a noble magician not be able to recruit even a low-level servant warrior, why would he choose to recruit us horse thieves?

Of course, if you don't have a high level of magic, or if it's not easy to find any powerful warriors, you can easily summon such a behemoth to fight. I don't know much about magic, but you're not low, I'm sure of that...... I mean, if you're trying to recruit some warriors, there's bound to be a whole bunch of people who will break their heads to serve you.

...... Why did you choose us?"

As soon as the horse thief leader said this, many horse thieves also noticed that something was wrong:

Yes, we are just ordinary horse thieves, not very powerful characters, the strongest combat effectiveness is not even as good as some ordinary mercenaries, those people are experienced veteran warriors, if you want to choose, you should choose them, how can it be our turn?

Thinking about it this way, this magician really still has bad intentions!

However, when Joseph heard this, he just shook his head lightly: "I don't want all of you, in fact, many of you are indeed not qualified to join my subordinate warrior group, I will only choose a dozen...... Oh, or a few people, and the others I'm not interested in. As for what you said, why did I choose you...... Because I didn't have a choice!"

Joseph shrugged his shoulders a little helplessly: "This is the desert, the people of the caravan, those who were killed by you, those who escaped, who else can I recruit besides you?"

Speaking of this, Joseph seemed to be a little impatient, but his tone was very calm and indifferent: "Do you think that with the strength of a magician, there are still any intrigues and tricks to play with you? Hehe, in the face of absolute strength, any conspiracy is ridiculous...... Alas, it's really nerve-wracking, it seems that no matter how much you talk about it, it's still troublesome, so it's better to show your strength directly and let these guys figure out the situation......"

José turned around and pulled Xiao Maoton, and directly cast a wind magic, and flew down flutteringly.

This action undoubtedly caused a low noise and exclamation in the crowd.

José paid no attention to the reaction of the horse thieves, and instead landed less than a dozen steps in front of the horse thieves. If he was in a high place just now and was not easy to attack, such a move would almost take the initiative to send himself to the front of the horse thief.

The leader of the horse thieves obviously didn't expect this guy to be so bold and fly down like this. Although I heard that the strength of mages is great, it seems that most of them have a fatal weakness - they are not good at close combat, and most mages are very taboo about the enemy's close proximity in battle, which is why they will recruit slave warriors to protect themselves in battle, so as to calmly carry out long-range magic attacks on the enemy.

But this magician doesn't worry about this problem at all?!

He even had a somewhat crazy thought in his heart: this guy was only a dozen steps away from him, and if he suddenly attacked this magician at this time, he would probably be killed with one blow!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance up at Joseph, only to find that the magician was also looking at him. This guy is wearing a loose robe, and his figure is not burly, but rather a little tall and thin. Although I couldn't see his appearance clearly, judging by the voice he spoke before, this magician should not be very old. But he wasn't too sure—he'd heard that many magicians could disguise themselves with magic, and maybe this guy was seventy or eighty years old.

The only thing next to the magician was the kid who looked to be more than ten years old, so naturally it was impossible for him to pose any threat to himself. Although the earth elemental giant that the horse thief leader feared the most was still not far behind Joseph, he had absolute confidence that he could cut this guy's throat with the long sword in his hand before the earth elemental could react, or before this magician could react!

At such a thought, the horse thief leader's brain was hot, and his heart suddenly beat violently......

However, although he was moved, he still had some reason and calmness in his heart after all, and the horse thief leader always had a faint feeling in his heart...... If you really move your hands, this guy who seems to have no ability to resist seems to be able to clean himself up with just a finger!

This hesitation was not a suspicion or a scruples, but a kind of prediction of danger that he had cultivated over the years! The leader of the horse thieves believed in this feeling of his own, because this kind of prediction had saved his life many times...... He gritted his teeth and forced himself to suppress the thoughts in his heart and stabilize his mind.

At this moment, the leader of the horse thieves suddenly heard Joseph let out a cold snort!

A strange feeling made his heart tighten, and then his heart seemed to be hit hard with the sound, and he instantly felt a wave of dizziness rush to his brain. His body was unstable in one of his centers, and he almost fell to the ground. This feeling made him suddenly startled, and he hurriedly looked up at Jose, only to find that the other party was looking at him with a sneer, and his eyes showed a little playfulness in his eyes.

He's the hell!

The leader of the horse thieves was shocked, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat: Could it be that this magician can see through Lao Tzu's thoughts? If this is the case, then wouldn't it be just now......

"It's just a small deterrent, I mean, you have to thank your sanity just now, if you really did that, it wouldn't be as easy as it is now!"

Joseph smiled slightly, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him, but the faint indifference in his eyes made the horse thief leader suddenly sober up, he just bit his lip stubbornly, his expression was complicated, and he stared at Jose without saying a word!
