Chapter 23: Reunion (4)

Artak was an important military region in the northwest of the empire and was an important part of the northern defense line Artac-Grung-Galik. 【Reading.com】

The entire region has a population of hundreds of thousands, but the cities are surprisingly small, only a few, and buildings like Imperial Towns are even more difficult to see, after all, this is the cold and cold Altak, unlike other regions, most of the local food comes from hunting or imperial supplies, which leads to the population distribution of Altak is very concentrated, so that it is easy to organize teams to hunt in the mountains in a short time, or to release the materials supplied by the empire in time.

As for crops, don't expect anything to grow from the rocky soil of the Altak tundra, the meat of the Manz snow wolf in the snowy mountains may be the only food for the local people when supplies do not arrive in time.

Artak's people are fierce, is the best source of soldiers in the empire, because of the long-term living in this harsh environment, Artak's soldiers have the incomparable combat power of soldiers in other parts of the empire, remember, before the orcs appeared, the barbarians in the north are the biggest hidden danger in the empire, because on the surface they are in a state of peace, but in fact, the barbarians still send troops south from time to time to loot, of course, most of this kind of things are born in winter, after all, the extreme north where the barbarians live, is a more hostile area than the northern environment of the empire, and their relationship with the dwarves is not very harmoniousBeware of the giants from the farther north, where food inadequacy is the most significant problem that limits their tribe.

Before the orcs appeared, the empire regarded the barbarians as the strongest soldiers in individual ability, and the empire once tried every means to alleviate the contradictions between the two races, forming a small army of barbarians, but in the legion battle, the effect was indeed quite poor, because the barbarians did not obey any orders at all, and their combat method was to rush up and kill non-stop until they killed the opponent, or they were *killed, which was simply an undispatchable soldier for the empire that was used to the command of the legion.

What's more, barbarians have mastered an ability called [Anger], they can rely on their emotions to maximize their combat ability, wrist strength, physical strength, degree, ** resistance, anger is simply a comprehensive strengthening magic that does not consume magic power, more than a little stronger than the strengthening of magic.

It was once thought that the warrior's [rage] might be the only ability that could be used to resist the mage when the mage had almost stepped into the altar and compared it to all other professions, which proved how terrible the savages who mastered [rage] were, and that placing an army of barbarians who had mastered the wrath in the heart of the empire was undoubtedly planting a bomb for itself, so the army was abolished shortly after it was built.

It is worth mentioning that the anger of human warriors was first learned from the barbarians, but they could not be like the barbarians, perhaps due to blood differences, and anger has also become an important means used by northern humans to resist the cold and the field, especially in Artak, which every soldier must require to master.

This is the reason why Artak was so valued by the Empire, and why he was able to repel the barbarian plundering many times.

A week later, Soth finally saw what is called a snow-capped mountain that is frozen for thousands of miles.

In fact, he didn't want to come to Artak at all, although he didn't know what was going on.

On the contrary, Dia didn't say anything, just repeatedly reminded Sosto be careful, although with the hidden power of Soth, there are almost no people in this world other than Argus who can win against him, but Dia can't help but be a little worried.

In addition to Alan and Soth, this team to go to Artak also includes the vampire Ulrik, and Soth's soldier puppet Sojess.

Allen's entourage, Uncle Algie Eden, who was once a legendary knight, was sent back to Operills by Allen to pick up Allen's new wife Lisa, he planned to take advantage of the Vander meeting in half a month to get his former companions together, and the new Bishop Bang Harmsworth was left in Vanderl by Abel, perhaps the Vander witch planned to use this to spy on the strength of the Holy See, after all, the empire is now in a period of internal and external troubles, so it is natural to beware of the Holy See taking advantage of the weakness.

And speaking of Soth's soldier puppet Sojes, he was in the Holy See for three years because he couldn't get the master's magic to replenish and once restored his original chess piece state, so Sos specially took him with him, after all, in his memory, the king puppet Kane, who evolved from the soldier puppet, is also a combat force that cannot be underestimated, and he must be fully prepared before the decisive battle with Argus.

In this way, the four of them headed towards Artak...... No, it's two people plus a vampire and a puppet.

Although they had not heard Lavia mention Altac more than once, Alth's desolation was far beyond Soth's expectations, and in the four or five days they had not seen a city, a town, or even the smallest village, and at a glance, it was a white expanse, with the sky above and the snow below, especially when the snow was falling, it was really impossible to tell where it was, as if the whole world had receded in color.

I have to say that if you want to live here, you need to have an extremely tenacious will, not only food, but sometimes a single snow white is enough to make people crazy.

For example, Lavia's most hated color is white, especially the color of ice and snow.

After that, it took two more days for Soth and Eren to finally see a city.

It has to be said that the city is no less large than any other city that Soth has seen before, of course, not in terms of prosperity, but simply in terms of the size of the city and the total number of inhabitants.

After being questioned by the Altak soldiers at the city gate, Soth and Alan entered the city smoothly, to be honest, Soth originally thought that Artac belonged to the kind of extremely large and sparsely populated area, but the number of inhabitants in the city was greatly beyond his expectations.

As soon as he entered the city, he felt as if he had entered a sea of people, for it was full of Artacians in leather jackets, and they all looked very strong.

According to statistics, the average height of the Artac men was more than two yards, and some were even higher, they were unruly, disobedient, aggressive, and ruthless, and they were the most capable soldiers in the Empire, but also the most troublesome soldiers for commanders, they admired force, despised the weak, and had extreme xenophobia.

It's not for other reasons, it's just that they simply look down on the weak, so in Artak, the weak have no status.

To gain the respect of other people, you must first get the title of man, don't think it's ridiculous, on the contrary, it's a very difficult thing.

First, the girls of Artak generally have no status, even if their status is more prominent, like Lavia, and the boys, until they reach adulthood, are only treated as children until they are fourteen years old.

Whenever the boys of Artak reached the age of fourteen, the Artacians would gather the boys together and raise them as human beings, and the rules were very simple: each man would bring a dagger and a piece of cured meat, and go into the snow-covered mountain, where he would live alone for a week, and when he returned, he would bring back the head of a Manz snow wolf, and that would be considered pass.

The Althak women, usually mothers, would knock out all the teeth from the mouth of the Manz wolf's head and string them into a necklace, which the child's father would bring for him to signify that the boy had accepted the title of man and had become a true Artak man.

This is Artak's so-called rite of becoming, this condition can almost be said to be quite harsh, not to mention living alone for a week in the harsh environment of the snowy mountain, and the food carried is only a piece of cured meat, the key is that the snowy mountain is full of hungry Men snow wolves, one is not good, they will become the food of the Men snow wolf mouth when they go to hunt.

What's more, the Men snow wolf is a social animal, a very resilient, cunning wolf with low intelligence, otherwise it would not have been the most valued companion of barbarians since ancient times.

It can be said that Artak's rite of passage is borrowed from the customs of the barbarians, but the difference is that the barbarian practice is to find a she-wolf with only a single cub, kill the she-wolf, swear by the she-wolf with the most solemn oath before she dies, and then bury it and bring the cubs back to be raised.

As compensation, the wolf cub will be regarded by the barbarians as an irreplaceable companion, more important than his own life, custom, a barbarian, only one Men Erz snow wolf can be a companion for life, if the wolf dies of illness or is killed, the savage will also be eliminated from the warrior, henceforth as tribal logistics.

It can be said that half of the strength of the barbarian lies in himself, and half lies in the trained Mannz snow wolf, especially the Mannz snow wolf that has grown to the prime of life, which is as strong as a calf, and just seeing it is enough to scare ordinary people.

Maybe this is the way of life in the north, every time after a while, one by one Altak boys who have reached the age of fourteen will go to the Great Snow Mountain with a dagger and cured meat [to die], yes, you read that right, it is to die, that is a place where the survival rate is almost less than 30%, you know, this is only for the Artaks, if the inhabitants of other places enter this snowy mountain, maybe in a day they will become a skeleton that has been eaten by wolves.

In addition to courage, the Artak people pay more attention to resilience and perseverance, what in order to survive to find a cave to hide, or even light a fire to keep warm, this is undoubtedly a self-defeating approach, in order to survive, the Altak boy must find an excellent ambush spot at the first moment, and then dig a pit to bury himself, only half of his head is exposed, and even a pair of eyes, to maintain this state around the clock, in order to wait for the lone Men Snow Wolf, and then see the time to maneuver and attack.

Perhaps, only the Artaks, who almost everyone has the power of anger, can do this, and if it were an ordinary person, let alone fighting a snow wolf, just holding that position would be enough to freeze him to death.

So, in Artak, [man] is a very serious and glorious title, equated with a warrior.

On the contrary, if he refuses to participate in the rite of passage for the sake of his life, or quits in the process, then he will be called a coward, and he will be ostracized by others for the rest of his life, and even the supplies released by the empire may be taken away by others, and unless he leaves Artak, he can only end up depressed.

In addition, Artak's people are fierce, and almost everyone carries weapons with them, from daggers to swords and spears, which startles Ulrik when he first arrives, and to be honest, vampires who worship beautiful things don't like this place where power is paramount.

"Don't clash with local people," Alan reminded him jokingly, but looking at his expression, it didn't seem to be a joke.

Soth understood what he meant, after all, he also felt that the eyes of those Artaks looking at him and the others were not full of kindness, but more provocative and contemptuous. -- This is the way the Artaks have always treated outsiders.

And Alan took out the wolf tooth necklace from the armor and hung it on his chest early, and when he saw this wolf tooth necklace Artak, they all cast a kind look at him on behalf of recognition, and some even nodded as a greeting, while Soth and Ulrik obviously didn't get this honor.

In Artac, there are three most famous cities, and they are also the most densely populated cities, called Taaffe, Breu and Weil, which symbolize tenacity, courage and will, respectively, and are also the most important symbols of the national customs of the Artaks, and the city they came to at this moment is one of these three cities, representing the tenacity of Taaffe.

It can be said that if anyone wants to make trouble here, they will definitely die a miserable death.

Ignoring the Altak people's eyes, Soth and Alan found a tavern, after all, they had eaten dry food along the way, and now they had finally found a city, so they wanted to reward themselves.

I have to say that the moment he just stepped into the tavern, Soth was almost stunned by the strong smell of liquor inside, although he had also heard that northerners drank highly strong liquor, but he really didn't expect the smell of alcohol alone to be so pungent.

Glancing at the shirtless Artak men, who were drinking the red of the ground, Soth and Alan went straight to an empty table, but strangely, they waited for a day and no one came to ask.

"Hey, where's the head of the house?" asked Alan, who was really impatient, standing up after sitting for a long time.

For a moment, the noise in the tavern stopped, and the drunken Artaks gave Alan a vicious look, and when they saw the wolf tooth necklace on his chest, their eyes softened slightly.

So a drunken man staggered over, patted Allen on the shoulder and laughed, "You're not a local, little ghost, but you're a [man], I heard that outsiders are very rich, you can give a gold coin or two, and you can eat the liquor and wolf meat in the store."

"Hey" Alan smiled strangely, took out two or three gold coins and put them in the man's hand, and said with a smile, "We still have to hurry, please hurry up."

"No problem" The man slipped the gold coins into his pocket as if he didn't care, and staggered towards the kitchen, and it wasn't long before he returned with a large plate of food and spirits.

To tell the truth, it was indeed a large plate, which filled the entire table, plus the two bottles of spirits that smelled pungent wine.

"If it's not enough, go inside and get it yourself"

After dropping a sentence, the man stopped paying attention to Soth and Allen, and went on drinking with his friends.

Glancing at the somewhat stunned Soth and Ulrik, Alan shrugged his shoulders and said with a wry smile, "Wolf meat, Artak's specialty...... You're welcome."

"You're not polite......," Ulrik said with a strange look on his face, glancing at the large plate of wolf meat, "but what about the knife and fork?"

"Knives and forks?" Alan glanced at Ulrike with a smirk, then reached out and scooped up a large piece of wolf meat and stuffed it into his mouth, which was already the best answer.

Looking straight at the plate of wolf meat and swallowing his saliva, Ulrik sighed as if helplessly, hesitantly picked up a small piece of wolf meat and put it in his mouth, chewed it, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he praised, "It's a little rough, but this tastes ...... That's pretty good."

"Yes," Alan said vaguely, "Although wolf meat is the only meat that Altak has more abundant, but ah, this wolf meat is really good, especially when you feel cold, eating this is suitable for heating ......" As he spoke, he uncorked a bottle of spirits, sniffed it lightly and turned his head away, and after sneezing a few times, he shook his head and said, "It's still so pungent...... It's very effective to cheer up when it's cold."

Poking his head over and sniffing it slightly, Ulrik's expression changed drastically, and he shook his head again and again and said, "Count...... Forget it, I'm not afraid of the cold...... "Vampire is indeed not afraid of the cold, but more importantly, I'm afraid he likes low-alcohol red wine and fruit bars.

"And what about you, buddy?" Alan asked, looking at South.

Frowning at the smell of the pungent smell of wine, Soth shook his head and said, "Wine is the blood of the gods...... I'm not afraid of the cold."

Indeed, it would be a joke to say that a fire mage would feel cold.

"Hey, I haven't seen you for three years, but the man's words are a lot stronger, and [wine is the blood of the gods]" teasingly, Alan poured himself a glass, and then took a sip in the eyes of Thus and Ulrik, but he was so irritated that he sneezed a few times.

"Phew," said Alan with a long sigh, holding his glass, "this wine is too strong, why don't you really have some of it?—hey, Ulrique, didn't you say you want to taste all the food and wine in the world?

"But isn't this a beautiful bar?" Ulrik smiled wryly and tried to excuse himself, but Alan poured a glass of involuntarily, and even took Soth with him.

I have to say that Artak's liquor is so strong, just a small sip, Soth seems to feel that the blood in his body is burning, even the internal organs seem to be roasted by fire, as if his body is full of scorching fire elements, it may be a little uncomfortable for others, but for a fire mage like Soth, it is undoubtedly a very good feeling.

On the contrary, Ulrik shook his head after taking a small sip and said that he would never drink again, after all, he was a vampire, and the fear of fire was a vampire's weakness, and after drinking this strong drink, he felt as if he was roasted by flames, which was simply torture for him.

So, in addition to Ulrik and the soldier puppet Sojers, who didn't eat anything, Soth was persuaded by Allen, and the two of them drank a large bottle of spirits one by one, and gradually, Soth also liked the feeling of being covered in fire elementals.

Around this time, a dozen more men in light gray traveling cloaks entered the tavern and sat down at two tables next to them.

Like Alan and the others before, they also endured the embarrassment of being ignored.

"Hey, what's going on with this tavern?" said one of the men, slapping the table with a disgruntled expression.

The Artaks who were drinking fell silent and glanced at them with a little contempt, after all, Alan held the title of "Necklace of Wolf Teeth", which represented [Artak Man], and the Artaks would have some respect, but these people, nothing.

It wasn't until the man slapped the table in dissatisfaction for the second time that the whole tavern fell silent, and the shopkeeper who had served them the meat to Alan just now stood up and said in a somewhat unruly tone, "I'm the shopkeeper here, what's the matter?"

"How...... What's the matter?" the man was stunned, obviously a little confused, what tavern was there where the guests didn't take care of it, but they drank by themselves?

Looking at the shopkeeper's unkind tone, the man stood up, frowned, and said, "What's the matter with you?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he was pulled by another person, a very young man who looked to be only in his twenties.

"Don't make trouble," the young man whispered, then stood up, looked at the shopkeeper, and said, "We need some food......

Looking at the young man coldly for a long time, the shopkeeper said absentmindedly, "I only entertain men here, and the little ghost who hasn't grown any hair, just go outside and find something to eat."

"What do you say" Almost everyone at both tables stood up, during which Alen, who was a little drunk, glanced at Soth, pointing to the golden armor that appeared under the light gray travel cloak of the other party, and the badge on the armor on which the knight held a spear, a sword, and a horse, and smiled.

"Who do you know?" asked Soth, vaguely.

"Royal Knight...... Hey" Touching his chin, Alan glanced at the young man, a somewhat uncertain smile on his face.

In the face of the seemingly threatening actions of the dozen or so people, the drunken face of the shopkeeper showed a bit of ferocity, and even the Artacians who were drinking with him stood up.

"What? want to make trouble with me?"

"Sit down," the young man said with a bit of anger, but from his eyes, he could see an expression of extreme dissatisfaction, and after glancing at the table between Soth and Allen, he forced his anger and said, "Why can two imps eat here?"

"Little ghost?" Alan and Soth's expressions changed slightly, if they normally wouldn't have cared, but they were getting drunk, and when they heard these two words, their faces couldn't help but show a little coldness.

"Hey" the shopkeeper smiled playfully, looked at the young man with contempt and said, "Although they are little ghosts, they are worthy of our approval, as for you, you better get out of here"

Frowning at the shopkeeper, the young man took out a money bag and placed it on the table, repeating, "We need some food"

I saw that the shopkeeper looked at the young man in surprise, and then looked at the money bag on the table, and actually walked up and took it in his hand, and after thinking about it, he shrugged his shoulders at his friends, and after they sat down again, he turned to a dozen people, including the young man, and said, "The kitchen is behind, go and get whatever you want" said, he actually put the bag of coins in his pocket, and the people who saw it were dumbfounded.

"You ......" Several of his men in royal knight's armor tried to reason with the shopkeeper indignantly, but the young man shook his head in anger, and casually pointed at two people and said, "You two go"

"Yes"

Looking at those people with cold eyes, Alan arched his elbow and said with a smile, "Hey, it's almost more than a hundred gold coins."

"Hmph" Sos snorted lightly, he was slightly drunk, and he didn't grasp the balance of power in his body as well as usual, so that some dark aura was slightly released from his body, and this insignificant aura attracted the attention of the dozen people and an old man.

A few minutes later, the two men returned with several large plates of wolf meat, as well as some Altak's specialty spirits.

"Where's the knife and fork?" the young man asked, frowning, and seeing that the two men shrugged innocently, with a bit of discouragement, waved his hand and said, "Forget it, sit down, after eating, let's find a place to rest for the night, and when the little ghost arrives, we will rush to Breu."

So, the dozen or so people forgot about what had just happened for a moment and focused on destroying the food in front of them.

However, while eating, small talk is naturally inevitable, and it is said that it is small talk, but in fact, most of it is just complaining.

At first, it was just some curses for Argus, cursing for Jerry Belfort, the president of the Royal Magicians, but as they spoke, they talked about Heliriox, about Opperils, about the black mages of Helirioux who were too incompetent, and about Operills's merchants as speculative traitors, which made Soth and Alan listen to it, and the expressions on their faces deepened.

"Hmph" glanced at Soth, and Alan said to himself, "Hey, man, have you heard, there's another battle on Boydel's side, it seems to be the ...... of Operiels and the Sassen army"

As if he understood what Eren meant, Soth said lightly, "Royal Knights?"

Secretly giving a thumbs up to Soth, Alan said in a strongly mocking tone, "Royal Knights, hey, what is the army doing now, the original Legion Commander was killed, and the Deputy Legion Commander helped the criminals defect...... Hey, speaking of which, the one who defected turned out to be the first prince of the empire, what is Theo's, I heard that he killed his own father, do you say it's unusual?"

The voice was not soft, but it was not loud, just so that the dozen or so people in royal knight armor listened to it, and one of them slammed the table and roared angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about, little ghost?"

"Huh, isn't that right?" said Allen in surprise with a somewhat pretended not knowing expression.

The man "You" seemed to want to come over and teach the two little imps who didn't know the height of the sky and the height of the earth, but before he could stand up, he was stopped by the old man.

Looking deeply at Soth, the old man whispered, "Don't make trouble—sit down"

"Huh?" the royal knight looked at the old man for some reason.

"Sit down," said the young man with an angry expression in a low voice, "Don't be like a ghost."

"Hey" Allen's eyes narrowed, the corners of his mouth hung a little sneer, and he said lightly, "I heard that the wanted criminal is the guy named Theo, and Sassen offered him a reward of 10,000 gold coins, I really don't know which guy will be so lucky."

"Slap" The young man couldn't help but slap the table hard, as if it was a signal, and the royal knights at the two tables stood up, and just as they were about to teach the two little ghosts a lesson, the old man stood up in time and said in a deep voice, "Sit down," he said, he looked at Soth and Allen with wary eyes, and whispered, "If you offended a few people in something just now, please don't care"

"Huh?" said the young man, looking at the old man in astonishment, "what are you talking about, Cliff?"

I saw that the old man named Cliff looked at Soth deeply with a cautious eye, and said in a low voice, "Your Excellency is ......a magician, right? If it weren't for the fact that you had just oozed a few traces of darkness, I really didn't know that Your Excellency was actually a magician......" As he spoke, his eyes became more and more solemn, after all, those who have the ability to hide the fluctuations of magic power are all magicians with excellent strength.

"Hmph," Soth snorted faintly.

"Magician?" The only burly-looking young man sitting in the seat turned his head to look at Soth, and when he saw the unkind gaze of Alan and Soth, he frowned, and said in a deep voice, "It seems that you two are not imps who don't understand anything, just now, you deliberately provoked, right?"

At Ulrik's repeated wave of his hand, Alan slammed the table and said insolently, "We are just provoking, what's the matter?"

One sentence made the whole tavern quiet, and even those Artaks stopped drinking and chatting, looking at Soth and Alan with interested expressions, and a few even began to shout and cheer, after all, the people of Artak are fierce, and if someone fights in the street, not only will they not come forward to help, but they will shout and cheer on the sidelines.

"Stinky boy" A royal knight angrily walked towards Allen, but before he could get closer, he heard a thud, and he flew out upside down and slammed into the wall, and at the same time, Soth's raised right hand was also released.

The old man named Cliff glanced at Soth with a shocked look, although he had just felt the fluctuation of the magic power, but he didn't have time to warn him, because the release of the magic was too fast, and what was even worse was that the other party actually used a fire bomb, just a fire bomb, and knocked the whole armored royal knight away, what a powerful force is this? Cliff thought that he couldn't do it.

"I want to have a good meal, but I run into you guys" Alan pulled out the knight's sword he was carrying from the scabbard on the side of the table, held it against his shoulder, hooked his fingers with his other hand at the dozen or so people, and said in a somewhat arrogant tone, "What's the matter, royal knights?

Seeing the eager expressions on the faces of the drunken Soth and Allen, the vampire knew that he couldn't persuade them, so he sighed helplessly.

"If you want to fight, go outside and don't smash my tavern," said the innkeeper, who had been watching quietly, pointing outside, and then, he glanced at Soth in surprise, his original contempt had long been replaced by respect.

"Hit, hit," shouted the other Artaks, waving their arms frantically.

And just like that, a few minutes later, a [unfair] battle unfolded in the street outside the tavern, attracting a large crowd of passing Artaks.

Yes, it was an unfair battle, after all, there were only two of them on the side of Soth and Allen, and there were more than a dozen on the other side, and before it even started, the surrounding Artaks booed those people contemptuously and unanimously supported Soth and Allen, but in reality?

Alan didn't know the origin of these people, especially the young man, he was the former first prince Theo Butz Yarwood, and that burly young man was the former deputy captain of the Royal Knights, Bert Brackley, and that old man was naturally the former wizard of the first team of royal magicians, Clive Baylis.

To be honest, for the aristocracy, Alan has always lacked a good impression, that is, the nobles of Sasson, this sentiment has become more and more obvious in recent years, and Sos is mostly just to support Allen, of course, about the other party's insult to Heliriox, and to call him a ghost, Sos is also quite dissatisfied, after all, in the three years in Thessalonia, no one dared to call him a little ghost.

While a group of Artaks were watching, Alan looked at Prince Theo with his knight's sword on his shoulder, and said in a mocking tone, "What are you waiting for?"

Theo seemed to be speechless in anger, and Bert Brackley, the former deputy commander of the Royal Knights beside him, frowned and glanced at Allen, who rushed forward first, and slashed the knight's sword in his hand towards the other party with five or six points of force, after all, he just wanted to teach these two little imps a lesson.

But unexpectedly, Alan blocked Bert Brackley's sword with one hand, and said with a smile, "What's wrong with you?"

"......" looked at the mockery in Alan's eyes, Bert Brackley's eyes showed a little anger, and gradually increased the strength of his hand, but the incredible thing was that until he used twelve points of force, even if his face was suffocated, he couldn't suppress the knight's sword in Allen's hand even one point.

How is this possible?

Looking at Allen, who seemed extremely relaxed, Bert Brackley exclaimed.

"Yo yo," I saw Alan shake his head contemptuously and said with a smile, "It's my turn, right?" As he spoke, he saw his eyes change, only to see a burst of red and green glimmer flash, and the muscles on his arm suddenly skyrocketed a few points, and his eyes, as if with endless anger, made people dare not look at each other.

[Anger]

Bert Brackley couldn't help but be horrified.

"Enhancement magic and anger?" Cliff Baylis, the former royal magician, looked at Alan with a surprised look and was about to perform the enhancement spell on Bert Brackley, when suddenly a hurried fire bullet grazed his face, interrupting his incantation chanting.

Feeling the heat of that moment, Cliff Bayliss turned his head in shock to look at Soth in the distance, but saw that the other party slowly lowered his right hand, looked at himself and said lightly, "What do you want to do?"

There is no mantra...... This kid didn't even chant a mantra?

Cliff Baylis's eyes showed a deep horror, although it was not uncommon to say that the instant fire bomb was actually in the eyes of a stronger magician, but the key was that the young man in front of him was too young.

"......" With a hint of tentativeness, Clive Bayliss unleashed a fireball and roared towards Soth.

But to his surprise, Soth didn't even have the slightest intention of dodging, looking at the flying fireball, he raised his right hand and waved, and actually bounced the fireball into the sky.

In Cliff Bailey's incredulous eyes, Soth licked his lips, which were a little thirsty from drinking, and said lightly, "What are you?" As he spoke, he raised his hand and waved, and a dozen fiery red vortices suddenly appeared in front of him, and in just one second, the dozen or so vortices formed more than a dozen fireballs, flying towards Cliff Baileys.

Blink?

And it's multicast?

While dodging the fireballs, Cliff Bayliss noticed that Bert Brackley, the former deputy commander of the Royal Knights, was being played by another teenager.

What is the origin of these two teenagers?

While Wizard Cliff was secretly horrified, Alan seemed to be tired of this [boring] game, and swept Bert Brackley out with a wave of his arm, only to see him move high, subduing three or five royal knights in a matter of seconds.

The other royal knights who caught up were torn apart by countless fire bullets that appeared at some unknown time.

What is going on? I didn't relax my suppression for this magician boy, Magician Cliff looked up in surprise, but now that the other party was fighting with himself with his right hand, he actually used his left hand to control those fire bombs.

In just two or three minutes, Prince Theo was still standing on his side, except for Prince Theo himself, who did not come forward, there was only the magician Cliff......

Looking at this dramatic scene, even the onlookers were a little surprised, and the original contemptuous eyes for the dozen or so people were replaced by pity and even more contempt.

"Is that the end of this?" Allen, who was carrying the knight's sword, looked at Prince Theo with contemptuous eyes, completely ignoring the fact that the other party's handsome face had turned iron.

It's not a level of strength at all......

Looking at the young man in the strange black and red uniform opposite, and at the royal knights who were knocked to the ground, Wizard Cliff's mouth couldn't help but feel a little bitter.

And just as Alan was about to play with the prince, he suddenly realized that his ability to move seemed to be limited, and at the same time, a calm and somewhat low voice came from the crowd in the distance.

"Stop, Alan, and ...... South"
