After visiting the alchemy arsenal in Flamel in the morning, in the afternoon, Arand and the messengers of Peak City got into a carriage and prepared to drive out of the city.

Their next destination was the Loki Mine outside the city, where the largest vein of Loki Crystal in the Roland Empire stood, which Flamel had learned to mine and refine thousands of years ago.

Now Foresight City also has its own veins, but they are still blank in the field of mining-related technology, and they need to learn from Flamel's predecessors.

"Nolan ......" On the carriage, Arand looked a little worried, "Are you really going out of the city?" ”

"Isn't that what you made for me?" Nolan smiled, "I have no reason to refuse to learn advanced mining techniques from Flamel, right?" ”

"But the problem is...... Arand stopped talking, "If you leave Flamel at this time, I'm afraid it will give the people of Shattered Star City a chance."

"The plan can't catch up with the changes, in my opinion, it's better for you to stay in the City Lord's Mansion for the past two days.

Although Flamel is not able to arrest Erich yet, it is still possible to call a few strong men to secretly protect her.

"The so-called gentleman does not stand under the wall of danger, since you have already sensed the danger in advance, why do you do such a risky thing?"

Nolan shook his head: "I don't think you're right." ”

"What's wrong?"

"It's Shatterstar City trying to bully us, right?"

“…… Be. ”

"So, shouldn't Flamel be sanctioning bullies now? We, the victims, are going to resist, so why are you trying to persuade us not to do it? ”

"That's ......," Aland was momentarily speechless, "I didn't mean that......"

"To put it bluntly, you still think Linfeng City is easy to bully."

Noren sneered, "Because Peak City is weak, Shattered Star City feels that they can decide our life and death at will.

"Because Peak City is weak, Flamel just wants to calm things down, and he doesn't want to offend Shattered Star City because of this.

"Aland, I have experienced a war, do you know what I learned the most in that war?"

“…… What? ”

"Concession does not bring respect and peace, fighting talent."

Noren slowly clenched his fists, "Today, I am here as an envoy of Linfeng City, so I will not back down.

"I'm not going to change my schedule, if the guys in Shattered Star City want to come, let them come.

"I will use this battle to tell everyone who covets Peak City that Peak City is not a good target for them to bully-

"They're on the wrong target."

Alander was speechless, and only after a while did he say: "I'm just worried about your safety, the strength of the Grimny family is not trivial, even if they are both of the seventh order, ordinary transcendents are not their opponents." ”

Eighty years ago, Roland I swept through the realm of humanity with his legions of transcendents, and no one else could defeat him.

Among them, seven army commanders galloped on the battlefield as Roland I's most powerful subordinates, and made great contributions to the establishment of a unified Roland Empire.

In recognition of their exploits, Roland I gave these seven legion commanders the title of "God of War" after he ascended the throne.

The ancestor of the Grimni family was one of the seven legionnaires, and he was given the title of "God of the Winds".

The ability to earn the title of "God of the Winds" shows the strength of the Grimni family, and Erich's arrogance and arrogance are not groundless.

Compared to the loud Shattered Star City, Linfeng City seems so obscure, and the only achievement it has achieved since its establishment was the recent victory in a war with the border barbarians.

The gap in strength is placed here, if you can back down, you can back down a little, and it is not shabby to develop.

Since the candid conversation that day, he has come to regard Nolan as his own, and he is really worried that he will be too sharp and fall halfway.

"I'm sure." Nolan didn't say much.

If he can kill Erich, not only will he benefit from the prestige he has established for Ringpeak, but he will also have the upper hand in the cooperation negotiations with Flamel.

I have been attacked in your territory of Flamoel, how are you going to compensate me?

Shatterstar City is so faceless to give you and directly attacks within your borders, will Flamel continue to be an ally with it?

A neutral city does not mean a turtle, and if Flamel can't even protect the safety of the legendary alchemist in his own territory, its prestige will be greatly affected.

As long as he is alive, after this battle, Flamel will definitely break with Shattered Star City and the Second Prince's camp, and completely fall to the side of Linfeng City.

"You're a stubborn man!" Arand stamped his foot and sighed in annoyance.

In order to lure Erich into action, Nolan not only did not clear the tracking brand from his body, but even prevented him from reporting the matter to Bach.

Because whether it is spying on Erich or sending additional guards to Peak City, it will cause Erich to be alert.

It seems that Erich is plotting against Nolen, but in fact Nolan is plotting against Erich.

That's ruthless, this kid...... From the very beginning, I went with the consciousness of killing Erich!

Where did he get his confidence?

He couldn't figure it out, but he could only sacrifice his life to accompany the gentleman at this point.

Hopefully Erich will exercise restraint and hopefully today will be just a false alarm......

Nolan's safety cannot be compromised, if there is really anything in case, even if he gambles his own life, he must be protected!

Aland made a silent decision in his mind, and the carriage of the messengers quickly drove out of Flamel and headed for the Rocky mines outside the city.

……

On a low hill outside the city, Wade, a seventh-order wind mage, landed beside Erich and said to him:

"The carriage of Tipple City has left the city, and its destination should be the Loki Mine."

"Well, Nolan is in that carriage, I'm pretty sure."

Erich holds a telescope and looks down on the mountain road at his feet, which is the only way from Flamel to the Rocky Mine.

The carriage was heading this way, and he sensed that the tracking imprint he had planted on Nolan that night was getting closer and closer to him.

Hey, get closer, get closer.

Seeing that the prey was falling into his trap step by step, Erich curled the corners of his mouth, and his eyes became more and more fierce: "Ready to do it!" ”

"Yes." Wade rose into the air, standing high in the air ready to cast a spell.

He was in a position two hundred meters directly above the carriage, and he was sure that he had not been discovered by the people below.

"Nolan, they're going to make a move."

Just three hundred meters away, Yuna is hiding in a bush, locking onto the wind mage flying in the sky through the scope of her sniper gun "Ganganir".

Through the soul link, she shared the specific location of the three people in Shattered Star City on the opposite hill with Nolan.

"I guessed they were going to ambush here."

Noren had put on the Black Raven mask since he left the city, and the corners of his mouth under the mask were slightly upturned when he heard Yuna's reminder.

Flamel is not far from the Rocky Mines, and both are heavily guarded by Flamel.

If Erich wanted to ambush them halfway, only this halfway mountain road was the best place to ambush, and Flammel's garrison in the area was the weakest.

This means that once the ambush battle begins, the Peak City Emissary Regiment will not receive assistance from the Flamel side for a short time.

This is really the best place to ambush, and Noren thinks so too, so before noon, he asked Yuna to bring her equipment and stay here.

Sure enough, not long after, Yuna discovered the sneaky traces of Erich and others.

Just as Erich was looking down on the carriage, Yuna had been secretly locking on to them through the scope for a long time.

In the air, Wade began to cast spells, and the furious wind elemental quickly gathered around him.

It stands to reason that the elemental fluctuations of high-level spells are extremely obvious, and the high-level mages in the carriage below should not be unnoticed.

But in fact, even though the people sitting in the carriage were already on guard, they didn't sense that the danger was approaching, including several high-level transcendents of the sixth-order mage Watson.

Only Yuna, who witnessed the formation of the spell, shared this information with Noren, and he reminded him: "The spell is coming, pay attention to defense!" ”

Although the crowd did not notice anything unusual, they trusted Nolan's judgment.

Julius was closest to Noren, and he grabbed Nolan and raised his arm, and Watson immediately began casting defensive spells.

The guards on the side also activated the protective magic circle on the carriage, and the carriage was immediately wrapped in a magic barrier.

After all, it is a high-end car for the envoy group to travel, and this function is still there.

And at the moment when the barrier was just lit up, a cyan pillar of wind fell from the sky.

"Whew-"

The cyan pillar of wind broke through the spell barrier and broke a large hole in the top of the carriage, and the powerful wind pressure that was enough to cut people into pieces instantly swept through the entire carriage.

Not to mention ordinary people, even high-level knights who are unsuspecting will be hit hard by this move, and immediately lose more than seventy percent of their combat effectiveness.

The cyan pillar of wind quickly tore the carriage apart, but instead of the flesh and blood of the passengers, it revealed a water barrier glowing with a glowing blue light.

The sixth-order water-based spell "Shield of Round Softness", fortunately, Nolen reminded him in time, and Watson still cast the defensive spell at the critical moment.

"React so quickly?"

This crucial first strike did not get any results, and Erich and Wade were both surprised.

The sixth-order wind spell "Dead Silence Shot" is the signature wind spell of the Grimny family.

The power of Dead Shot is that it causes very little elemental fluctuations during casting, and the sound of the wind pillar firing is extremely subtle.

This is an extremely frightening thing, which means that the opponent can no longer use conventional means to defend against the preemptive strike of the "dead silence shot".

In fact, it's this move that makes House Grimny's Wind Mage a fearsome sniper.

But now this tried-and-true signature spell has failed in this ambush battle.

Shouldn't that be...... Wade frowned, quickly pondering the reasons for the failure.

"Dead Shot" is not without its drawbacks, and although it has very little movement, it still requires cast time.

Is the other party's reaction really so fast, or is it that he is not preemptive......

Could it be that the other party has already discovered himself when he started casting the spell?

As soon as this thought flashed, a chill suddenly broke in his heart, and the hair on his whole body stood on end.

As a seventh-order wind mage, he was extremely sensitive to fluctuations in the air around him.

He could clearly perceive that at this moment, at three o'clock, a steel nail was tearing through the air and shooting towards him.

Ambush?

It turns out that he is the one who was ambushed!?

The speed of fire of the steel nail was beyond imagination, and it instantly crossed a distance of hundreds of meters and reached his own side.

With the mage's physical reaction speed, it is impossible to dodge, but the wind mage has its own way to solve the flying props.

Wade's mind moved, and the wind elements around him spread out like waves, forming a distorted wind field on his side.

The flying prop moves with the wind, and this wind field can change the flight trajectory of the steel nail, deflecting the arrow shot at him elsewhere-

It should be like this, but it is not.

The silver steel spike seemed to have a natural repulsion to the elements, and it went straight through the twisted wind field, and the trajectory of the shot barely changed!

"How can this be ......?"

Under Wade's shocked gaze, the steel nail tore through its right shoulder, and flew off into a white line unabated.

On the hill, Erich and Sander watched Wade's severed arm and a trail of blood fall from the air to the ground, and their mouths opened wide in shock.

Originally, he planned to let Wade take the lead in disintegrating most of the opponent's combat effectiveness, but he didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, it was Wade himself who lost his combat effectiveness.

How did things come to this?

Who shot the steel nails?

Who's the sniper?

"Boom-"

The sound of the shot ensued, and Yuna put down the sniper gun Gungnir, whose muzzle was emitting white smoke, with a slightly regretful expression.

Although she managed to hit her target, she didn't hit the vital point, but unfortunately she didn't do the fatal blow.

Hunting Warcraft is still different from sniping humans after all, human targets are too small, and the error tolerance rate is always lower.

At the same time, over-penetration is also a reason, Gungnir and steel nails are originally dragon hunting weapons, and they are used to snipe humans like cannons to fight mosquitoes.

It can be, but it can't be used to its full strength.

However, this is harmless, and she has better options for mages to be armed.

Beside her was a large open box, and Yuna put down Gungnir and took out two brand-new alchemical weapons from the box.

One of them was a dark green shield, larger than a normal arm shield, which Yuna tied to her left arm.

The other is a strangely shaped knight's spear - it is a spear, but it looks more like a hybrid of a gun and a gun, with a hidden barrel part in the barrel and a trigger-like mechanism in the grip.

As these two weapons seem, when she was equipped with a spear and shield, Valkyrie switched from ranged to melee combat.

"It looks like the other side is not lightly injured, use the assault equipment to give him a good time, and snatch the air supremacy."

Nolan's voice came from her head, Yuna nodded, and the four acceleration circles behind her opened up at full speed, galloping towards the wind mages in the sky.

"Leave it to me!"
