On the white snowfield, the black wolf took Kong Ming and other nine people, plus the captured enemy captain, let go of his horse and ran in the direction of the camp, saying that he was running, but in fact, because the snow was too thick, he could only move forward at a speed that was not much bigger than a double walk. After leaving the place where the enemy was attacked, they walked for another day and a night according to the same way, and there was no resistance from the enemy on the road, which made their tense hearts gradually let go, after all, the farther away from the enemy army, the smaller the probability of being attacked, because it was a march against the wind, so that their speed dropped a lot, at this rate, if there is no accident, it will take at least four or five days to return to the camp, if there is an accident, then I don't know how many days it will take to go back. Kong Ming took out a piece of horse meat with a little body temperature from his arms, and then roasted it with a fighting spirit, and a burst of fragrance emanated from the meat, this horse meat was pulled out of the enemy's horses when they attacked the enemy that day, and after Kong Ming officially ran out of food, they were killed directly, a little per person, as dry food. There are no seasonings, and there is no need for any cooking utensils, just roast it with fighting spirit, bite down, very tough, this can only be eaten immediately. Because it was a headwind, everyone didn't speak, just walked with the people in front of them. Kong Ming squinted at the white snow field in front of him while eating, the black wolf looked back from time to time to see if anyone was left behind, and urged everyone to follow, the flying eagle was constantly discerning the direction at the forefront, and the others were following all the way, Kong Ming saw Kriz and Fang Tong in front of him nodding while riding a horse, obviously, the two of them were sleeping on a horse, this is a technical job, they practiced on the horse. Suddenly, Kong Ming felt as if he had chewed something in his mouth, making the roots of his teeth hurt, took the horse meat out of his mouth, looked down, at this time, the situation suddenly changed, on both sides of them, several heavy snows suddenly burst open, snowflakes accompanied by ice crystals, flying towards them, quickly covering everyone's sight, Kong Ming found out, immediately threw the horse meat in his hand in the direction where the snowflakes flew, pulled out the long sword with one hand, withdrew his left foot from the place where the horse pedaled, and left the horse pedal, and then stepped on the upper right side of the saddle, using the force of the pedal, Kong Ming bounced up from the horse, held the sword with both hands, and slashed towards the figure that flashed behind the snowflakeThe snowflakes flew under the feet of Kong Ming, and from the snowflakes a long sword stabbed straight at the air of Kong Ming, if the sword stabbed it must be the position of the right lower abdomen, when Kong Ming's abdomen was separated from the sword by a few centimeters, Kong Ming twisted his body back a little, which directly caused the action of Kong Ming to deform, the enemy's sword hit Kong Ming's leather armor, slid a little, and pierced directly into the leather armor, and passed through the skin, and Kong Ming's sword because of the deformation, also from cutting the enemy's neck to cutting the armor on the enemy's shoulder, and split a deep crack on the strong armor, but did not hurt the enemy, The enemy was directly sat on the ground by Kong Ming's heavy blow, Kong Ming did not kill the enemy, but his hands were a little numb because of the enemy's strong armor, Kong Ming took advantage of the situation to clamp the enemy's right hand with his right flank and body, and both hands turned the sword into a horizontal wipe towards the enemy's neck, the enemy saw that his right hand was clamped, and his heart was not nervous, and his left hand quickly raised a hand to grab the center of Kong Ming's sword body, and the attack of the two became intertwined, Kong Ming wanted to clamp the enemy's right hand on the one hand, to prevent the enemy from pulling out his hand to attack him, while wiping the enemy's neck with both hands, and the other party wanted to pull out the right hand from under Kong Ming's flankOn the other hand, he resisted Kong Ming's sword hard and did not let the sword take a step forward. The two sides were crossed, the man saw Kong Ming standing, he was sitting, so he pulled one foot out of the snow, and there was a kick behind Kong Ming, and at the same time his whole person fell directly backwards, Kong Ming felt that after the enemy fell backwards, he didn't pay attention to other things, and suddenly emitted a fire dragon fighting spirit from the sword, and the hand of the enemy holding the sword was directly burned to ashes, losing the enemy's top strength, and the long sword suddenly accelerated, cutting off the enemy's head, and the wound was scorched by fire. Without any pause, Kong Ming stood up, looked at the battle around him, the battle around him continued to stir up the snow, and he couldn't tell the action of the enemy and me, Kong Ming glanced at it, there were not many enemies, only four, but they were all masters, the black wolf was entangled with one, **, Leng Jian, James was entangled with one, Du Hu, Jack was entangled with one, and the rest was surrounded by Flying Eagle, Kriz was entangled, Kong Ming didn't see Fang Tong, thinking that it was more than lucky, they were fighting together, the sword shadow and figure kept flashing around, Kong Ming did not immediately join the battle, he knew that if he joined the battle now, he might be like them, I don't know where he was, Kong Ming was watching quietly, but the other people inside couldn't stand it, a few people called Kong Ming to join in the battle, and the voice was getting higher and higher, but Kong Ming still ignored their shouts. Suddenly, Kong Ming saw the person who was attacked by the Flying Eagle and Kritz, and took a step back, and the direction in which he retreated was the direction where Kong Ming was, as soon as Kong Ming saw such a good opportunity, the long sword was swung out, and a fiery red fighting spirit flew directly to the leg behind the enemy, and the fighting spirit directly hit the calf, and the enemy knelt on the ground with one leg, this mistake decided his fate, Flying Eagle, One of the two Kriz's fighting spirit smashed the enemy's sword, and the other stabbed a sword into the enemy's throat, and the ensuing battle was without suspense, with the addition of Flying Eagle, Krize, and Kong Ming, the three enemies were killed in turn.

Looking at the six corpses on the ground, one of them was Fang Copper, who killed him the moment the enemy attacked, he didn't even have time to hold the sword, in the black wolf's opinion, Fang Tong may have been asleep at that time, and when the enemy hit him, he was still in a dream. Jack recognized the enemy well, he took a deep breath, and exhaled a long breath before saying, "We're so lucky!"

"What?" asked the black wolf.

"There are two fifth-level swordsmen and three fourth-level swordsmen attacking us, under normal circumstances, we have one fifth-level swordsman, two fourth-level swordsmen, a fourth-level thief plus five third-level swordsmen, and we are not opponents of the enemy at all, maybe only the black wolf and I can escape, but now they are lying on the ground, and we are still standing. ”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, they knew very well how big the difference between the first-level swordsmen was, a fifth-level swordsman could defeat ten fourth-level swordsmen, and the same fourth-level swordsman could defeat ten third-level swordsmen, and they could win, which could be said to be lucky.

Jack continued: "We can win thanks to Kong Ming," everyone listened carefully to Jack's analysis, "At the beginning, when the enemy attacked, they picked five opponents respectively, Black Wolf, Kritz, Fang Tong, Du Hu and Kong Ming, and the black wolf was against their strongest fifth-level warrior, and the same was true for Kriz, and the rest were against the fourth-level warriors, in the first wave of attacks, Fang Tong was killed because he was defenseless, and the fourth-level warrior against Kong Ming was because the two sides were too close, and they fought closely, and they didn't show the combat power of the fourth-level warrior at all, so they were killed by Kong Ming in the struggle, and it was even more fortunate for us that one and Kritz, The fifth-level swordsman of the Flying Eagle Battle, that is, a novice, that is, a swordsman who has not gone through life and death battles, but grew up in peace, when everyone was calling Kong Ming, he thought that Kong Ming was a high-level swordsman, and the fourth-level swordsman who died in Kong Ming's hands died so quickly, which made him misjudge, and also made him distracted in the battle, and felt scared, so it also made him make mistakes, this kind of mistake usually does not matter, but in the life and death battle, it is very fatal. And Kong Ming seized this opportunity and wounded his calf with a single sword, thus deciding his fate and the fate of their entire team, so we lived, and they died. Luck is part of strength!"

"The analysis is wonderful, worthy of a thief, and an old thief. I won't ask for a fifth-level warrior like him if he throws it to me. The captured enemy said. "It's a bunch of guys who came to the army to eat, and they don't know how thick the sky is. The man scolded violently, who is Ren, who suddenly saw the hope that he had suffered for two days, but was destroyed by a character like a child's brother, the person he usually looked down on the most, could he not be angry in his heart? Moreover, in order to prevent him from making a sound, his mouth had been blocked for two days, and he only took it out when he was eating.

"Pack up and we'll leave right away, this place is not safe. The black wolf said simply.

After listening to the black wolf's words, everyone covered the traces of the battle with snow, while Jack and the black wolf touched the enemy's body to see if there was anything valuable. In the end, they were buried and covered with snow. In the black wolf's "departure", everyone ran towards the camp again.

On the horse, Kong Ming touched the long sword, and there was a small gap between the long sword and the sword, which was cut on the enemy's armor just now, which made Kong Ming feel distressed. After Jack saw it, he teased Kongming and said, "Why, I'm distressed." Seeing Kong Ming nodded, he didn't want to make Kong Ming sad anymore, "You don't know how to protect the sword yet, so no matter what kind of sword it is, even if the divine sword is in your hand, it will make something collapse like it." ”

"How to protect it?" Kong Ming hurriedly asked.

"It's very simple, that is, when you use your sword to split, slash, stab, etc., use your fighting spirit to go deep into the sword, the deeper your fighting spirit, the sharper your sword will be, and you can even cut off the artifact, but if you don't have a trace of fighting energy in your sword, like today's situation, then your sword will not last long. Of course, a good sword can be of great help to the person who uses it, on the contrary, if a person always relies on the sword itself, then even if he has a divine sword in his hand, his cultivation will be affected, or even stagnant. I once had the opportunity to see a Juggernaut use an ordinary sword, a sword to cut other people's good swords, the best swords made by dwarves. Therefore, you must know how to take care of your sword, which will not only increase your combat effectiveness, but also enhance your cultivation. Got it?"

"Hmm. Kong Ming nodded. Kong Ming filled the fire dragon fighting qi into the long sword from his hand, only to see that the surface of the long sword slowly turned red, when the fighting qi in the long sword began to overflow, Kong Ming stopped inputting fighting qi into it, but Kong Ming found that when he wanted to maintain the fighting qi in the sword, he had to keep inputting some fighting qi into it. Although these fighting qi didn't seem to be a lot, just a little bit, but he needed to keep supplying the sword, otherwise, once he stopped entering, the fighting qi in the sword would quickly dissipate. On the horse, Kong Ming kept thinking about how much fighting energy he suddenly injected into the sword, which was the limit, and he would not let those fighting qi overflow, and at the same time, Kong Ming was constantly training himself, so that he could pour the fighting energy into the sword at the first time, of course, because he was still in danger, so Kong Ming dared to exhaust his fighting energy, but only used a small part.

After walking in the vast snowfield for another three days, Jack calculated the distance, it should be almost to the camp, and the flying eagle also smelled a faint smell of oil smoke from the air, thinking that it would not take long to reach the camp, this news made the team very excited, and more than ten days of hard work could finally be over. On the contrary, the captured enemy was a miserable pity, because everyone knew that as a captive, he generally only had two ways to go, either to ransom people with money, or to be turned into a slave, the former road was okay, but the latter road was to make people die for life, after becoming a slave, he would lose everything, including himself. Huatian Continent is not a slave society, but there are many countries that are still very backward compared to the Huayuan Empire, and slaves are an important basis for the luxury of the nobles, and there are still many places, even the Huayuan Empire itself is sometimes not exempt from this, and once Carry catches a captive, he must become a slave, because Tangke needs money to support this war.

"Stop! We're not welcome any further. A slightly trembling voice came from a very strange snowdrift in front, Kong Ming and the others saw this different snowdrift very early, it was a little like the cone-shaped grass pile, the top was a little round, and the bottom was cone-shaped, there was a small black hole on the side facing Kong Ming and the others, the sound came from inside, the snowdrift seemed to grow from the ground, it seemed so prominent. At the sound of the voice, there was a tremor above the snowdrift, and the snowflakes slid down from top to bottom. An arrow flew out of nowhere, inserted more than ten meters in front of the black wolf, the black wolf made a stop gesture, everyone stopped, watched quietly, and at the same time kept looking at the snow on both sides with their eyes, and the rear Kritz looked back, and several people even subconsciously touched the hilt of the sword, and the atmosphere became tense. When the other party saw that the black wolf and the others were on alert, they suddenly lost their voice.

"We're scouts, and we're about to return to camp after our mission!" the black wolf shouted calmly into the strange snowdrift.

"Password. ”

"We went out a few days ago, and today's password is not clear. ”

"There's no password, so wait a minute, I'll notify the people up there to verify." Don't walk past that arrow, if you go past that arrow, we'll treat you as an enemy, and don't blame us for being polite. ”

"Okay, hurry up, my brothers have been blowing snow outside for days. ”

After that, there was no sound there. Kong Ming and the others are on full alert, even if this is the former battalion, but no one dares to guarantee whether it is their own battalion now, because the other party has not appeared, there is no identification of military uniforms, they don't know who the other party is? Looking at the arrow in front of him, Kong Ming suddenly thought that the attack range of the arrow far exceeded the attack range of the sword, and it was necessary to learn archery when he had time, so that there would be no need to touch so close when attacking the enemy in the future, so that the danger would be reduced a lot, at least when dealing with an enemy.

I don't know how the people inside spread the message, and I didn't see them come out and go to the camp to report, or what kind of alarm they rang. After a while, they saw more than a dozen infantry running out of the large battalion, walking straight in their direction. When they got closer, Kong Ming saw that from the armor, the one in front was a squad leader, followed by several soldiers, their right hand holding a sword, and their left hand holding a shield more than a meter long and about half a meter wide and about half a meter wide. ”

"Scouts of the swordsman battalion. My name is Black Wolf and I'm a captain of the Swordsman Battalion. ”

"Why are you coming back now? The scouts who were released were all back on the first day under the heavy snow. ”

"We went in a long direction and came back a little later. ”

"Oh, how is one of you in the team named Li Lin now, the two of us are fellow countrymen, and we used to come and go, but after this battle, I haven't seen anyone else, I heard that he is also in the scout team formed by your swordsman battalion. ”

The black wolf thought for a while and replied: "Our team has only been formed for a few days, and they are all composed of people who survived the swordsman battalion, and they are not familiar with each other. ”

"Oh, that's a pity, please show your identification Peugeot. The man continued.

The black wolf took out a wooden card from his arms, and there seemed to be a few words engraved on the card, as if it was a scout's special words, the black wolf looked at it, and threw the card in his hand three times, as if he was a little reluctant, and then he was unwilling to throw it to the squad leader. After the squad leader saw the action made by the black wolf, his eyes lit up, he took the sign and identified it again, and then threw it to the black wolf, saying, "It's from the swordsman battalion, let's go." He said that the people next to him would make a way and signal to the black wolf to pass them. After the black wolf took the brand into his arms, he greeted the man, "Thank you." Then he took the lead in passing the guò from the middle of the road, and after all the men had passed the guò, the black wolf did not speed up, but walked towards the camp at the usual speed of his horse.

"**, is there a person named Li Lin in our camp?" Kong Ming asked strangely.

"Maybe there is, maybe not, who knows. ”

"Then why did he ask about Li Lin?"

"Do you think he was really asking Li Lin? If there is really such a person, and the leader also knows it, then he can be sure that we are real scouts; if the leader does not know, then he can follow the tone of the head and ask something that only we know internally, so as to distinguish the authenticity; and if there is no Li Lin person, and the leader really climbs this Li Lin, then we are fake, and if the leader says that he does not know, then he will also ask some common sense that we only know internally, so as to distinguish the authenticity from the false. ”

"I can't imagine that only these few words can actually distinguish us, really. ”

"Hehe, Kong Ming, you are still young, you don't know much about these yet, you will know later, but if they don't ask us this, it can only prove that that person either knows our true identity, or he is just a decoration, used to show others, if it is an ornament, then we are very dangerous in the camp, judging from that person, they have done enough to prevent the enemy. Jack said with a smile.

Everyone laughed when they heard Jack say this. Back in the camp, there was no threat from the enemy, and the big stone of life and death in the hearts of the people finally fell. When they were back in their tents, Black Wolf and Jack took the captive and went to the camp on an errand, and the others could no longer bear the fatigue of their bodies and hearts, and fell asleep. Looking at those who had fallen asleep, Kong Ming did not sleep like them, but remembered what Kasia had said, it was best to meditate or cultivate Dou Qi when he was tired, and vice versa, it might affect his cultivation. Kong Ming sat cross-legged and thought about it seriously, from a physical point of view, he should cultivate his fighting spirit a little better now, but from a mental point of view, now is the best time to practice magic, because the mental exhaustion of the days is far more than the physical exhaustion, because the mental exhaustion is unattainable, and the physical body can be achieved as long as he continues to exercise, after thinking about it, Kong Ming decided to practice magic first, so he began to enter meditation. Kong Ming concentrates his mind, uses it to sense the magic elements around him, and uses the power of the guò spirit to continuously absorb the fire element and space element that belong to his body into the dantian, and at the same time he continues to absorb it, it is the best exercise for the spirit. The fire element and the space element are under the control of Kongming's spirit, just like an obedient soldier, passing through Kongming's body, slowly dissolving into Kongming's dantian, and then lining up into a certain shape, just like the formation of an army, but there are always a few very lively elements that do not listen to Kongming's command, and wander outside the formation, and then leave Kongming's body, and return to the heaven and earth, Kongming used his tired spirit to try his best to stabilize the entire meditation process, but after dissolving some elements into the dantian, Kongming's spiritual power finally dried up, and the elements also completely stopped, without spiritual support,The process of fusion is impossible,If it is placed at the time of casting magic,After the mental power is exhausted,If the magic has not been cast,Then the magic will have a certain backlash to the magician,The damage of this backlash to the magician is determined by the situation at the time,The small is just a little mental injury,It will be fine to rest for a few days,But the backlash of the benefit will make the magician die,But there is an absolute exception.,That is, when the magician is in the underworld,The magic element is impossible to have a backlash on the mage's property,On the contrary, when the magician's mental power is exhausted,It will quickly help the magician's spiritual power to recoverThis kind of reply is not only to restore the original spiritual power, but also to some extent will promote the growth of spiritual power, as for the increase depends on the personal situation, and so on. At this time, Kongming's spiritual power has been completely exhausted, but after the fusion of the elements stopped, after a short period of time passed, the elements slowly started to operate again, at this time, it was the elements that drove the operation of the spirit, not the spiritual power that drove the operation of the elements, when those elements filled the dantian of Kongming, Kongming's spiritual power increased by a large margin, which was greater than the growth of meditation in the past few months at any time, and the spiritual power tempered in the battle between life and death finally received a good return. When Kong Ming woke up from meditation, the whole person was full of energy, and the physical exhaustion was completely gone, it seems that meditation will also make the body of the magician be exercised, and the weakness of the magician is only relative to the swordsman, knight and other melee professions. And Kong Ming's mage level has also been upgraded to the level of an intermediate mage
