"Ah, welcome, welcome, it seems that everyone is quite giving me face as an old fellow."

Seeing the two coming, Haytham suddenly had a smile on his face, and he enthusiastically cut several large pieces of roast meat, and handed them to Sean and Bilaire on a plate.

Sean took it naturally, thanked him, and picked up his knife and fork and ate it.

Because they hadn't known each other for a long time, Sean and the three of them couldn't find anything to say for the time being, but Haytham was quite good at things and took the initiative to provoke topics that both of them were interested in.

"Thank you to Your Excellency Sean Morton and Your Excellency Billaire Bess for temporarily joining our Ocean Blue Chamber of Commerce, and I hope our relationship will get better and better in the future."

"Our Ocean Blue Chamber of Commerce has paid salaries to every guard and servant, and has also paid a lot of remuneration to invite some mercenaries to protect, for the two of you, I, Haytham will naturally not be stingy."

"Every day, I will pay each of you a gold coin for employment, and I will also provide free food and other daily needs, you only need to come forward when the caravan is in danger, and you don't have to worry about other things at all."

"How's this treat?"

Haltham finished a large part of the sentence in one breath in a confident tone, and seemed to find the conditions attractive.

But in fact, it was also true, and Sean saw that Bilaire on the side had already lit up.

For professionals other than mages, it is still a little difficult to reach the so-called average income of professionals, after all, there are big dogs like mages, and the above-average gold coins earned by each mage are equivalent to indirectly increasing the income of the professional class.

Being able to do almost nothing and get a daily salary of one gold coin is already a very pleasant surprise for Bilaire, if he still has the attitude of running away when he is in trouble, then now his mentality has gradually changed.

This is exactly the effect that Haytham needs, don't look at Sean and Billaire seem to have temporarily joined his Chamber of Commerce on the surface, but if there is really any trouble, these two people can pat their butts and run away.

It may be difficult for ordinary people to go to other countries, but as long as they are willing to pay some price, they will be welcomed wherever they go.

Therefore, only by tying Sean and Bilaire to him and his chamber of commerce with interests, the two of them will not stand by and watch when something really happens.

It's a pity that this method doesn't seem to work well for Sean, he is also a person who carries more than 2,000 gold coins with him, so naturally he will not be tempted by this petty profit, if he really encounters something difficult to solve, he will still leave without hesitation.

"Brother Haythin, thank you, I was just a hitchhiker, not only did I not pay but also asked you to post gold coins upside down, I'm really embarrassed, if you need help, just tell me." Bilaire said happily, and the movement of cutting meat in his hand was much faster.

"yes." Sean also replied, "He is worthy of being the president of the Ocean Blue Chamber of Commerce, and his shot is atmospheric." ”

In this way, in a harmonious atmosphere, the four of them happily ended the lunch, and discussed some issues that everyone was concerned about by the way.

After resting, the caravan continued on its way, and Sean returned to his carriage to meditate and learn spells.

After the last failed spell use, Sean gave himself a wake-up call, and while most of the spells at the apprentice level were easy for him, there were always parts that he was not familiar with or didn't know.

It's fine if it's used in everyday life, but if it's a mana riot or soul damage caused by a failed spell cast during a battle, it's not a trivial matter.

Practice diligently, and use familiar spells when fighting, although Sean mainly cultivates the gold system, he can't rely on alchemy products when fighting, and all kinds of spells should also be at his fingertips.

……

Time passed like this very quickly.

Traveling outside is always a bad day, and the sky suddenly becomes overcast as night approaches.

Large dark clouds crowded together, and the wind began to howl, blowing the nearby woods with a noisy sound.

With a frown, Haytham observed the celestial phenomena for a moment and gave the order to the caravan to halt its advance.

After getting out of the carriage, Haytham and Manik stood face to face, and Sean looked at the two with some curiosity, not knowing what they were going to do.

After some exchange, the two of them raised their hands in a V-shape at the same time, palms facing inward, and looked up at the sky.

They chanted complex incantations at the same time, and blue light condensed between their hands until they swelled into two balls of light.

Sean was shocked, he seemed to understand what these two men were going to do.

This is a special technique, combined casting.

Combined spellcasting does not belong to super magic skills, but requires two or more professionals of the same profession to use the same spell at the same time with a super high tacit understanding, and then guide it through some ways, and finally combine the spells released by different people into one to burst out with stronger power.

Sure enough, Sean then saw the two blue balls of light gradually merge together, becoming more dazzling.

After the brightness reached its peak, both of them pronounced the last syllable of the incantation at the same time.

The blue fluctuations spread instantly, wrapping the surface of all the carriages and goods in the caravan, and under the effect of the spell, Sean could feel the faint energy fluctuations gradually appearing on the carriage.

"We've cast spells on everything that might be eroded by the rain, so we can temporarily resist the rain, so let's get moving, find a place to shelter from the rain!"

Haltham shouted, took the initiative to mount his horse, and accelerated to the front to explore the way.

There are many trees nearby, which can provide some shelter from the wind and rain.

But because of the heavy rain that may come with lightning and thunder, for the sake of the safety of people and goods, Haytham did not want to gamble at all.

The caravan continued to move forward, becoming faster than before, and the rain clouds in the sky became thicker and thicker as time passed, as if a heavy rain would soon fall.

The pathfinders soon got the news that not far in front of the caravan there was a tall cliff with a deep cave under it, perfect for a temporary rest.

The people of the caravan breathed a sigh of relief, and if they could not find a place to hide from the rain for a long time, then they would have to camp in place.

The cave under the cliff is not a good place to hide from the rain, as there is a possibility that landslides or mudslides may cause the cave entrance to be blocked, trapping the people in the cave.

But they have four professionals in their team, so they don't need to worry about this problem at all, even if the hole is blocked, it will not be difficult to get out.
