020, my friend
Outside Maple Leaf City, Levi came to the Maple Grove.
He looked around for Rena.
A figure came out from behind the tree, beckoned to him and shouted, "Levi, this way." ”
Levi heard the sound and turned his head to look.
Seeing that it was Rena, she walked towards him.
As he got closer, he saw that Rena was wearing knight's armor, a helmet, and a sword and shield on her back.
It's fully armed.
Levi felt a little strange in his heart and asked, "Why did you ask me to come outside the city?" ”
Rena said, "Do me a favor!" ”
Li Wei frowned, and refused without hesitation, "Don't help." ”
Rena froze where she was.
Seeing this, she didn't continue to pester Levi to help.
Rena said with a flat expression: "Last time, I stole the magic book and was discovered by the master, so I never found a chance to take out the magic book to show you. ”
She took out the magic book from her armor and said, "My master left Maple Leaf City the day before yesterday, and I took the opportunity to bring the magic book out. ”
"You only have half a month, and my master will come back in half a month, and I will never have a chance to steal the magic book at that time."
Rena paused for a moment and said, "If I don't get you back the magic book after half a month, you can send the magic book to the Knight Academy." ”
Levi took the magic book with her body temperature in it, and looked surprised.
Glancing at the magic book in his hand, he looked up at Rena and asked, "What do you want to do?" ”
Rena said, "It has nothing to do with you, you can take the magic book and go." ”
With that, she turned around and walked towards the depths of the maple grove alone.
Levi looked at Rena who was getting farther and farther away, and grabbed the magic book in his hand, feeling complicated.
He didn't want to get caught up in trouble.
But the residual warmth in the spellbook reminded him that if something happened to Rena, he would regret not following.
"Alas! If you ask me twice, I will agree. ”
Levi sighed in his heart.
The cold wind blew, and the temperature on the magic book disappeared completely.
The fingertips were cold, and the slightest impulse in my heart disappeared.
He put away the magic book and turned back to Maple Leaf City.
"Rena is an important member of the Golden Shield Family, if she encounters danger, the Golden Shield Family will definitely send a master to rescue her."
On the way back to the Mage's Tower, Levi bumps into Little John, who is wearing a knight's apprentice training uniform.
"Hey, Levi, long time no see, how are you doing?" Little John took the initiative to say hello.
"Okay."
"By the way, do you know what Rena is doing outside the city?" Levi asked.
Little John wondered, "My sister went out of town?" I do not know. ”
Levi sighed in his heart, Rena went out without permission from the people of the Golden Shield family?
After a moment's hesitation, he turned and ran out of the city.
"Eh, Levi, where are you going?" Little John hurriedly shouted.
Levi said loudly: "Go to the maple forest to find Rena, you quickly tell your family to come to the maple forest." ”
Little John was stunned for a moment, and he didn't come back to his senses until Levi disappeared from sight.
It was only after half a ring that he realized that Rena had gone to the maple grove.
The orc soldiers who were recently defeated by Maple Leaf City fled into the maple forest and hid in the maple forest to survive.
Maple forests are much more dangerous than ever.
Little John didn't understand why his sister was going to the dangerous maple grove at this time.
But he knew that he had to tell his father about it.
Levi returns to the place where he met Rena.
Rena is long gone.
He followed in Rena's footsteps.
"Hopefully there won't be danger."
Touching the magic book under the padded jacket, Levi suddenly felt that the book was a hot potato.
If Rena doesn't come back, this magic book is a ticking time bomb.
It will explode in half a month!
An hour later, Levi looked at the footprints that stretched out into the woods in front of him, feeling helpless.
"How did you get so far?"
Rena is a first-order knight, and her physique and physical strength are far better than Levi's.
If Rena kept walking, Levi wouldn't have been able to keep up with her.
The only good news is that the weather is too cold, and the beasts and monsters in the maple forest have all hibernated, hiding in warm nests for the winter.
Otherwise, I don't know how much trouble I'll encounter along the way.
After another half hour, Levi's back was already soaked with hot sweat.
Suddenly, he heard the sound of a fight not far ahead.
Levi hurriedly quickened his pace and ran forward.
After running a few hundred meters, three figures appeared in the field of vision.
Two orcs dressed in animal skins are besieging Rena, who fights the orcs with a shield in one hand and a sword in the other.
Not far away, in the snow, lay the corpse of an orc.
Apparently, the fighting has been going on for some time.
Levi slowed down, cautiously approached the battlefield, and stopped when he was still forty or fifty meters away from the battlefield.
Rena defeated three and slew an orc.
But under the siege of the remaining two orcs, she was no longer able to kill more enemies.
Rena knew that before the fighting spirit was exhausted, the two orcs could not do anything about themselves.
But she couldn't escape from the orcs.
Sooner or later, the vindictive spirit will be exhausted.
It's a bit bad, but it's not the worst yet.
Levi hides behind a tree and casts a spell, seeing the right moment to lock on to an orc and launch a small fireball.
Call!
When the orc sensed the fireball, it was less than ten meters away from him.
At such a short distance, the orcs simply didn't have time to dodge.
He swung his weapon desperately to block the fireball.
Boom!
The fireball hits the orcs and explodes violently.
In an instant, the power of the explosion tore through the orc's body, causing it to be severely injured.
The orc's arm was blown off, and he lay on the ground covered in blood, blood running and steaming.
Another orc was shocked to see that his companion was seriously injured.
Leaving his injured companion behind, he turned around and fled without looking back.
Rena wanted to chase the fleeing orcs, but Levi shouted, "Stop chasing! ”
Hearing the voice, she looked back at Levi and was stunned for a moment.
Rena was surprised, "Why are you here?" ”
She thought she had run into a mage passing by.
I didn't expect it to be Levi.
Instead of answering her question, Levi asked, "What exactly do you want to do?" ”
"My friend is missing, and I want to find her," Rena said. ”
She explained to Levi the cause and effect.
"Half a month ago, Susan participated in the mission of the Warrior Guild to encircle and suppress the orcs, and she would write to me every day to tell me about the progress of the mission, and I didn't receive a letter from her until five days ago."
When Li Wei heard this, his expression moved slightly.
"Five days ago? It was almost when Mr. Furuzawa returned. ”
He seemed to have something in mind.
Rena continued, "Later, I found out that Susan was participating in the food escort team, and the mage who came back said that everyone in the escort team disappeared mysteriously on the way. ”
"I don't believe Susan will disappear into thin air, I must get her back!"
Rena's eyes were firm and her tone was resolute.
Levidon felt a headache, this guy was afraid that he couldn't persuade him at all.
He believed that if he persuaded her to go back, Rena would definitely let her go back, and then continue to search for the missing Susan alone.
The mysterious disappearance of the escort team, Gu Ze also talked to him.
At the time, he just thought it was an anecdote, but he didn't expect that one day he would have something to do with him.
Levi was puzzled: "The escort team is missing, why are you here in the Maple Leaf Forest?" ”
Rena said, "I suspect the orcs did it, so I want to catch an orc and ask for clarification." ”
Levi looked at the mortally injured orcs on the ground.
"What do you want to ask, hurry up, he seems to be dying."
