East of Bieber, south of the plains of Thorm.

A phalanx of six thousand knights completely blocked the road to the south, and Gran on the high slope looked at the army in the distance with some pride. These private soldiers carefully cultivated by the "Flywheel" merchant group are not far behind the elite knights of other countries in terms of strength, which is the most fundamental weapon to protect the interests of the merchant group.

"Shao Dong, this is the information we have gathered. Next to him, the old man who looked like a butler handed over a stack of parchment.

"Well," Gran took gathering information very seriously, and he quickly skimmed through the scroll of paper and sighed, "This mage is really lawless...... Thousands of people had to be slaughtered along the way. ”

"I feel more, but if it goes on like this, sooner or later it will alarm the Supreme Council," the old man replied in a low voice, glancing at Anthony who was waiting anxiously not far away, and reported, "According to the available information, this mage's strength should be between the high and high ranks, and he is ruthless, and he has released multiple large-scale damaging spells along the way. We first spotted him near the Misty Swamp, and judging by his course of movement, the destination should be the Moon Song Forest. Moreover, at the beginning, there was indeed an elf synergy next to his carriage, and it was suspected that he had a very close relationship with the elves. ”

"Moonsong Forest?" Gronth thought, "he can't be an elven magician, is he?

"I haven't obtained his portrait yet, but it shouldn't be an elf," the old man denied, "The spells he unleashed were all fire-based spells, and there were almost no elven magicians who practiced the fire magic school." ”

"Fire law?" Glen commanded, always feeling that something was wrong, "you go and find it." Let's see if you can find the portrait of this evil mage. ”

"Good. As soon as the old man turned to leave, a messenger on horseback came quickly from the direction of Bieber City, turned over and dismounted in front of Grand, bowed and saluted, "Lord Grand, a letter from the Supreme Council. ”

"Oh?" said Grand, stunned slightly. After taking the letter and skimming through it, he chuckled at Anthony who walked over, "The Matrow family has done a good job in the council." ”

"What?" Anthony was puzzled, he was only a representative in Bieber City, and he did not belong to the core of the family. He does not have the authority to know about some of the family's high-level operations.

"The order of the Supreme Council is that our merchant group must arrest this mage," Grande smiled inexplicably, "and it has risen to the level of protecting the reputation of the Federation." It's a good wrist. ”

"I'm a little unaware of this," Anthony heard the mustard in his words, and the family's behavior did not believe Grand, and hurriedly explained, "However, our family's gratitude to your merchant group and the young owner will never change. ”

"It is natural to watch and help each other. Grande still kept a gentle smile. Nodding, as for what he really thought in his heart. I don't know.

"Young owner," not long after, the old man hurriedly walked back, glanced around, and whispered in his ear, "I didn't find the portrait." However, I asked some of the remnants to describe him. ”

"Oh?" said Grand, in a low voice, "Tell me about it." ”

Seeing the two muttering in a low voice, Anthony nodded slightly and avoided the distance.

"According to the remnant's description, the magician was not very old. The old man whispered, "Black hair, pale face, with a pair of violet eyes. ”

Grand was slightly stunned, and couldn't help but exclaim, "What?"

The old man nodded helplessly, confirmed his question, and asked, "Young master, do you think we should be now?"

"This ......," said Grand, looking at the council's letter in his hand and waving his hand, "let me think twice." ”

Time passed, and Grand walked back and forth around the tower a few times in a distraught manner, with a hesitant expression on his face.

Finally, he stood still, gritted his teeth, beckoned the old man, and gave a few words of command in a low and quick voice, and then the old man hurried to the knights' troops.

"What's wrong?" Anthony walked over and said with a concerned expression, "Why did the young owner's face suddenly become so bad?"

"It's nothing, there's a little problem in business," Grand observed Anthony carefully, and found that he was looking at the old man who had left in a hurry in confusion, and hurriedly explained, "That magician is very powerful, and I am worried that it will cause great damage to the army of the merchant group, so I sent Kuyt over to suppress the formation." ”

"I've long heard that there is a high-ranking warrior next to the Grandmaster's family," Anthony exclaimed, "and sure enough, it's everyone's weather." ”

"A warrior who has been famous for a long time should be able to guarantee that the mage will not be able to cast any powerful spells at all. Grand explained in detail like a thief.

"It's still thoughtful. For the sake of the family's orders, Anthony didn't care about patting Grand's ass more.

The two talked and laughed for a while, and a knight arrived from the front and said loudly, "Young master, the trace of that mage has been found ahead." ”

"So fast?" asked Gran involuntarily. But just for a moment, he quickly changed his expression, and smiled reluctantly at Anthony next to him, "Let's go over and have a look?"

"This ...... All right. Anthony hesitated for a moment, then nodded. In view of the information he had received, he was reluctant to confront the terrifying and unscrupulous evil mage, but Grand dared to go, and it seemed a little unreasonable not to go by himself.

The squires pulled their horses along, and the two men turned on their horses and hurried towards the knightly troops that had begun to move in front of them.

******

Several phalanxes of knights moved slowly, encircling Allegri's forward carriage in the middle.

"Wait a minute," an old man named "Kuyt" came from behind the phalanx, and ordered in a loud voice, "Wait first." ”

"What's the matter, Lord Kuyt?" the muscly knight commander wondered, beckoning first to order the knight troops to stop moving. The other party is not only a henchman of the Grand Shaodong family, but also a powerful high-ranking warrior, regardless of status or strength, it is enough to win his respect.

"The young owner doesn't want the knight troops to suffer too much damage," Kuyt said lightly, when he was in front of others, he still maintained that superhuman master demeanor, "I'll go over first, test the other party's strength, and try my best to consume his magic reserves." ”

"Then trouble Master Kuyt. The knight commander shouted, and all the knight troops maintained a general encirclement, but no longer moved, and Kuyt nodded in satisfaction, and beat his horse to the carriage.

"Mamma Mia, I'm going to die here this time," Fletcher said with a sad face on the carriage in the middle of the encirclement, "and I knew my instincts wouldn't lie to me." ”

"Don't you see, the knights stopped?" said Allegri, reluctantly.

"The knight has stopped, but an old man has come," Fletcher glanced at and said with a drooping face, "With the strength of the 'Flywheel' merchant group, there is no problem in sending a peerless powerhouse to destroy us with a click." You see that his heavenly court is full, his temples are bulging high, and his skills have obviously reached the pinnacle of perfection...... I knew that my instincts would never deceive me. ”

"Shut up!" Allegri couldn't help but say angrily, this guy chirped crookedly, it was really annoying.

Fletcher shrunk his neck, remembering that the guy next to him was also a big devil who killed people without blinking, and couldn't help but be even more frightened, and honestly curled up there, never daring to speak out again.

As the old man approached, Allegri's heart moved, and after thinking for a moment, he recognized that this was the high-ranking warrior guard beside him that day, and hurriedly removed his hood to avoid being mistaken.

"Could it be that Your Excellency is the evil mage who slaughtered the children of the Matrow family?" However, Kuyt seemed to have never seen him at all, and pulled out his straight-edged steel knife with a swipe, and shouted, "Either you will be caught, or you will eat me!"

Allegri was stunned for a moment, and was about to release the spell, when he suddenly saw the old man winking at him, hurriedly stopping the spell in his hand, and preparing to attack.

The old man deceived him, and when he was a few steps away from him, he suddenly whispered quickly, "Master Allegri, fake fight." He was already close to the carriage, which was the most advantageous distance for the warrior to face the mage, but the old man suddenly drew his sword and retreated, as if he had been hurt by something, and shouted, "What a powerful spell, it can hurt people invisibly!"

This guy's acting skills are really good, Allegri smiled slightly, quickly chanted a few times, and a "pillar of earth fire" spurted out, but the difference was a thousand miles, the location of the spell seemed to be very close to the old man, but in fact, there was no harm at all.

"You can't be more than Er'er, eat my knife again!" the old man smiled and attacked again.

The knights in the distance watched with fascination, and Kuyt's sword was like the wind, his figure flickered, and he flickered and moved between the "pillars of earth and fire", fully showing the martial arts cultivation of a high-ranking warrior.

The mage was a surging flame at the snap of a finger, obviously very powerful, but Master Kuyt was completely unscathed, completely overcoming the warrior's crampedness when facing a mage of the same rank, and repeatedly approached the side of the carriage. But the mage didn't know what kind of powerful shield he had unleashed, and Kuyt's furious straight-edged steel knife could not break it.

"Master Kuyt is really good at martial arts!" said Anthony, who had rushed over with Grand, clapping his hands in admiration, "I can actually get to a tie with this villain." ”

He didn't know what to do, Allegri didn't release any shield at all, and Kuyt's sword style was completely a disguise, and the two had already exchanged enough information in those moments when they got closer. When the two finally finished talking under cover, Kuyt nodded invisibly, blinked, and suddenly shouted, threw the long knife in his hand far away, and shouted, "You actually do things on my knife, it's despicable!"

Then he flew on his horse and fled at full speed towards Grand.

"Surround him, take him down!" Anthony urged the knights with some anxiety. The knight commander looked at Grand's face and waited for his order.

"Wait a minute. As soon as Grand waved his hand and ordered to wait, he heard a loud shout from the carriage in the distance,

"Which of you is the leader, come and talk to Archmage Alibaba!" (To be continued......)
