Zhuge Liang took Fang Qiubai to quickly advance towards the famine desert, watching the sky gradually darken, and the edge of the desert could already be faintly seen in the distance.

"Do you have any plans for our future, or do you just want to develop this mercenary group?" Zhuge Liang suddenly asked.

After listening to Zhuge Liang's words, Fang Qiubai fell into deep thought, and replied after a long time: "I don't know the way either, I always feel very confused. ”

"Why are you confused? What are you thinking in your heart, you don't know what you want?" Zhuge Liang asked rhetorically.

"When I first came to this world, I thought that it would be a good trip and a casual play. Later, I found out that Xiaoya is such a girl, and she works hard for a goal, so I thought about helping her fulfill this wish. ”

After a pause, Fang Qiubai turned his head a little embarrassed and continued: "Later, when I saw her injured in front of me, I hated myself so much at that moment, although I had you powerful companions, I was like a waste. From that moment on, I told myself that I couldn't let the people I care about get hurt. ”

"I see, how about mastering the use of space power?" Zhuge Liang smiled and nodded, and asked.

"For the time being, I have only discovered the use of shield, enchantment and annihilation, and as for the passage through space, I can't master it at all. Fang Qiubai told his experience one by one.

"In Liang's opinion, once you have completely mastered this strength, even that demon god cannot be your opponent. Zhuge Liang spoke with a hint of yearning, as if he was also looking forward to this strength.

"Even so, I don't know what to do in the future, every day I don't know what Lu Dao can do, what to do!" Fang Qiubai laughed at himself helplessly.

"There's no urgency in this matter, since your goal now is not to hurt the people you care about, then you don't think about anything else for the time being, it's not so simple to do this. For example, this time, the other party dared to make a move knowing that our mercenary group had a strong man like Yagami Lina, what did it mean?" Zhuge Liang said unhurriedly.

"What does it mean?" I don't know what to say!" Fang Qiubai replied very simply.

"It shows that if it is not your own strength, it cannot become a real guarantee, even if you are strong, can you guard the other party for a moment? Therefore, your goal is not simply to improve your own strength can be achieved. Zhuge Liang did not laugh at Fang Qiubai's ignorance, but patiently explained.

"In other words, even if I am a top master and always guard Xiao Ya, why don't I cultivate Xiao Ya into a master?" Fang Qiubai somewhat understood what Zhuge Liang meant.

"In a sense, it's true, only one's own strength is truly powerful. Zhuge Liang affirmed.

"Thank you. Fang Qiubai suddenly spoke: "Xie Lu, thank you for reminding me! Although I still don't know what will happen to Lu Dao in the future, I won't be confused anymore." ”

Zhuge Liang smiled elegantly, but did not answer, he pointed ahead and said, "We have arrived at the Famine Desert, and then we will slow down and search for them." ”

Fang Qiubai realized that when the two were talking, they had already reached their destination, he nodded calmly, and as Zhuge Liang reduced the speed of his flight, he looked down carefully, hoping to see Illya and the others at the first time.

——————————————————————

The battle began to be unfavorable to the mercenaries of Silver Oak Leaf, and more and more people began to be injured under the siege, although everyone knew that it would not work like this, but they were besieged by black-clothed men who were several times their size, but there was no other way.

At this time, Kaba and the others were also depressed. First, a master appeared on the opposite side, luring the two ace killers on his side and not coming back until now, and Norton was restrained by the level 6 mage who appeared inexplicably from the other party and didn't dare to make a move. After the siege went up, he found that the strength of the mercenaries on the opposite side was obviously more than 1 level higher than the information he secretly obtained at that time.

Coupled with the magical armor and weapons that everyone on the other side has, it makes his side even more uncomfortable.

I don't know when those weapons will suddenly have some inexplicable effects, making people scramble, and the armor is even more powerful, and a level 3 killer can't completely penetrate it with all his strength. Although many mercenaries have been injured so far, most of them have been injured by the fighting spirit, and almost all the damage from the sword has been defended.

Illya wielded her long sword and fought with an elite of a level 4 thunderwolf mercenary group in front of her, and Xana was beside her carefully guarding against the sneak attacks of other men in black.

"It's not the way to go. Illya looked around distractedly. Although more than a dozen people were killed or injured by the black-clothed man on the opposite side due to carelessness in the initial contact, after the other party was prepared, almost every time he successfully killed a black-clothed killer, a mercenary would be injured, although the injury did not seem to be serious, it was not a solution.

"Arastre, what happens if I use the Seal?" Xana asked.

"Sealing these humans with fighting energy can't completely prohibit it, now the opponent's masters are obviously more than ours, even if we use sealing, we are at a disadvantage. Arastel calmly analyzed.

"What then?" In just two sentences, Xana had already hurriedly separated several sneak attacks with her sword, and on one occasion, the short sword of a level 3 man in black had already touched Illya's armor.

"Well, it's a little difficult," Arastel said uncertainly

definite answer.

"You idiots, what are you going to do with them, get rid of that little slut first!" Norton shouted suddenly pointing at Illya.

Several elites of the Thunderwolf Mercenary Regiment whose strength exceeded level 4 immediately shook their opponents and rushed towards Illya, while the Silver Oak Leaf mercenaries who were trying to catch up were immediately blocked by the black-clothed killers who surrounded them.

"You level 6 mage do such a shameless thing, you still have to be ashamed!" Rudolph yelled at Norton with an angry face.

"Hmph, you're all going to die here anyway, and who knows what's going on?" Norton smirked.

Seeing that a master came to support, several killers besieging Illya immediately stepped aside, leaving their positions to the newly arrived elite.

Facing several opponents who were stronger than herself, even with Xana on the side wielding a knife to help, Illya was immediately forced into danger.

"Arastre, you can't go on like this!" said Xana, a little anxious.

"There's no solution!" replied Arastel succinctly.

"We promised not to let Xiaoya get hurt! And Xiaoya is very nice, I like it very much!" said Shana suddenly.

"What?" Arastel couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, not understanding what Xana was talking about at this time.

"If there's no way, then the only way to do that is to use the Sky Breaker!" said Xana, holding the pendant that carried Arastel's forehead on her chest with one hand.

"Xana, if you use it, not only you, but they will also be reduced to ashes!" Arastel reminded a little helplessly.

After being reminded by Arastel, Xana remembered that although the shattered sky could reveal Arastel's true body, the flames of the Heavenly Punishment God would burn out the surrounding existence, and she would be completely destroyed because she could not withstand Arastel's ability. Although he is not afraid of death, he still can't save others in this way.

Because of her distraction, Xana's movements in her hands couldn't help but slow down by two points.

Several mercenaries on the opposite side noticed this at the first time, glanced at each other, and launched a fierce attack on Illya, leaving several sword marks on Illya's armor in the blink of an eye.

Although Illya chose to use the shoulders, elbows and other thicker parts of the armor to resist the attack that could not be dodged, she was also hit by the opponent's sword qi, snorted, and retreated.

Xana hurriedly supported Illya, swung her knife to slash out a flame to force the enemy back, and asked, "Xiaoya is okay, right?"

"It's okay, you have to be careful!" Illya replied, swallowing the sweet blood in her mouth and reaching out to wipe the corners of her mouth.

And the enemy didn't give the two of them time to rest at all, just retreated slightly to avoid Xana's flames and immediately spread it up again, and the overwhelming sword light came towards the two of them.

To add insult to injury, Kaba on the side suddenly withdrew from the entanglement of Xiusi and the others, smiling and slashing out a huge golden arc sword qi with all his strength, and quickly rushed towards Illya.

"Xiaoya!" Bruce let out an angry roar.

"Commander, be careful!" exclaimed Variif and the others, who were watching the battle from behind.

Seeing the huge sword qi roaring in, Xia Na, who knew that she couldn't resist, dodged and stood in Illya, as a fire mist warrior, Xia Na had long looked directly at life and death, this time she also decided that even if she died, she couldn't let Xiao Ya be hurt, this is not only a responsibility, not only an agreement, but also because she is now Xia Na, a complete existence with a name, and Xiao Ya is her friend and a person who is kind to herself, so she can't watch her die in front of herself!.

Seeing Xia Na's petite body standing in front of her, ready to resist the huge golden sword qi for herself, Illya pursed her lips and showed a beautiful smile.

She suddenly reached out and grabbed Shana from behind, throwing her in the direction of Bruce with all her strength.

And she herself stood still, closing her eyes and waiting for the sword qi to come.

"Ah, sorry, looks like I'm going to miss my appointment. A tear slipped from the corner of Illya's eye, and she whispered.
