"Why are you running so fast, are you in a hurry to have lunch?" Early the next morning, Fang Qiubai and Illya Xiana set off in a beautiful way. Looking at the team of 12 people in front of him, Fang Qiubai opened his mouth and complained.

As for what team will be 12 people, it is because it was originally considered to be a team of 10 people, at least one elf and one orc, but in this way, it will be evenly distributed, and Zhuge Liang will simply decide 10 humans plus 1 elf and 1 orc, 1200 people is just 100 teams.

"After all, they still have a long way to go, I'm afraid they all need to speed up to the first populated village before they start to slowly follow the route!" Illya explained, and as a mercenary, he guessed the thoughts of these group members accurately.

The people who were running fast in front didn't notice that Fang Qiubai and the three of them were watching their every move in the air behind them, they all held their breath, and they came out to perform the task for the first time, but they couldn't lose the face of the SOS group too casually.

"This Aibo's strength has improved quite quickly, and he has actually broken through level 5, how many days has it been?" Illya sighed as she looked at the swordsman running at the front.

Fang Qiubai also remembered this Ai Bo deeply, of course, because of the other party's ugly face that looked like he had been slashed a lot: "I still remember that when he took the test, he was only level 4, but I didn't expect that he didn't rely on those buildings, and he could progress so fast just under the teaching of Gao Li and others, so he was a genius." ”

As for Fang Qiubai's choice of Aibo's team, it is also funny. Originally, Fang Qiubai wanted to follow the group of Suna and Tina, but before the words came out, he felt an inexplicable uneasiness, like a mouse being targeted by a cat and faintly having a feeling of fried hair.

I simply gave up this idea, and instead wanted to follow the combination of dwarves and snow tribes, but because these two people have some special identities, the route arranged by Zhuge Liang is relatively peaceful and less people, and finally under the discussion of Illya and Xana, he chose Aibo, who set off and turned directly to the northeast, until he came to the Qingshui Pass at the junction with the neighboring Mingda Empire, and then patrolled the team along the border line to the north.

"Not to mention anything else, at least it seems that this team is now under the command of Abbot for the time being, although his strength is not high in the team, and being recognized by others also shows that he has something extraordinary. Xana also nodded, and gave a rare evaluation.

Fang Qiubai looked at the personnel information recorded by Zhuge Liang in his hand, and said with concern: "Speaking of which, the orc Grom in this team is only level 6, the elf Granty has only reached level 6, and the other races are not more than level 5, is it okay for such a team to go to the border?"

Seeing Fang Qiubai's worries about An Wei, the members of the group, Illya smiled and said, "Have you forgotten? They don't participate in the war, this kind of strength is already very good, such a 12-person mercenary team can already do a lot of difficult tasks, not to mention that their purpose is not to crusade against any monsters or the like." ”

"Don't forget, a thousand meters to our right, there is also a saint-level Demonic Beast Earth-shaking Bull, with him, even if there is any emergency, it is enough to deal with it!" Xia Na raised her hand and pointed to the sky to her right and reminded faintly.

Fang Qiubai looked down, there was a small black dot in the blue sky, and he felt it carefully, Fang Qiubai smiled: "I was still thinking about where the backstage of this team is hidden, it turns out that it is also in the sky." ”

On the ground, Abbot's team, the seventh team, was advancing rapidly, and the orc urn named Grom asked angrily, "Abbot, what are we running so fast?"

Ai Bo turned around and explained, his steps forward were not chaotic at all: "From Yinshan City to Qingshui Pass, there is no other place to live between these two points, if we rush with all our strength, we will be able to arrive in the evening in 2 days, rest for a night, and collect intelligence in Qingshui Pass early in the morning of the third day, and carry out the mission!"

"It's not that I'm trying to be lazy, but is it necessary for us to rush so quickly?" asked a young man who looked to be in his early 20s, who looked a little immature compared to the others.

"Paul, you know, our tour routes are all on the borders of the Empire, and the borders are never at peace, and the sooner you arrive, the sooner you can do something. You should have also heard, because of the injury of the God of Light, now the situation on the continent is beginning to be chaotic, no one can say what will happen in the next second, if there is really a war, we must appear in front of the people before the war, especially Grom and Granty, you are not a human race, if the war time appears, the people at that time will be much more wary than usual, and it will be more difficult for you to integrate. Abbot nodded at Paul and patiently explained, he also knew that although the other party had good talent and strength was higher than his own, his overall situation and combat experience were far behind.

Although Abbot's strength can be said to be the bottom of the 12 people, he controls his body quite well, maintaining the speed of running while adjusting his breathing to remind others: "Granty, your physical strength can't be compared with ours, when fatigue appears, with the help of Grom's strength, we are all a team, don't be embarrassed, don't brace hard, that will only get twice the result with half the effort." ”

"Also, as a mage, Afra can reduce the burden of using magic like floating, but she still needs to pay attention to her physical strength, and everyone should be careful not to let any of her teammates fall behind because they exceed the physical load. Aibo's orderly arrangement made everyone nod in admiration, and it was no wonder that others would let him take on the role of command.

"Grom has the strength, which of you doesn't have the strength Grom can carry you!" The orc Grom is taller and burlier than the average person, and his head looks no different from the average person, but there is a slender tail behind him that flicks from time to time.

"Grom, don't waste your physical strength, when Granti can't hold on, you can just carry her forward, if you carry a person, you will consume more than twice the physical strength, and the gains outweigh the losses and even affect the speed of the entire team!" Abbot hurriedly reminded.

Under Aibo's complete command, the seventh team moved forward quickly.

And Fang Qiubai looked quite bored in the air, after all, there was nothing to do except fly forward and watch the people running underground, and he was sighing after less than half a day: "It's so boring!

Illya looked at Fang Qiubai funny: "Didn't you just come out?"

"But it's so boring! Look at this, it will take at least two days to get there!" Fang Qiubai almost rolled in the sky to sell cuteness, indicating that he was bored and home.

"Pick up!" Suddenly, Xia Na on the side took out her love knife, Zhen Dianyana, and the knife had already slashed at Fang Qiubai's side before she opened her mouth to remind.

"Hey!" Fang Qiubai only had time to shout, and at the same time as he raised his hand, the flame sword had already appeared in his hand to block Xia Na's attack.

"It's too dangerous, Xana!" Fang Qiubai flashed to Illya's side, wiping cold sweat and looking at Xia Na with a happy face.

"Didn't you say boring?" said Xana, smiling, gesturing with a knife swing.

"I don't care, but don't forget Xiaoya, I can only barely grasp the amount of flame power of Arastel, and I almost made her fall just now. Fang Qiubai reminded with an unbearable expression.

Xiana waved the spark of the temple: "Isn't this me? What are you afraid of? If you're bored, let's continue?"

"Don't do it! it's dangerous!" Fang Qiubai hurriedly shook his head, he still didn't want to fight in the air or anything.

"Xana, don't tease him, it's a bit boring to fly like this. Illya, who was on the side, watched the two fight, and hurriedly stopped with a smile.

"Why don't we go to that Qingshui Pass and wait for them first?" Talking and laughing, most of the time passed, and Fang Qiubai tried to propose.

Xana turned her head and looked at the sky in the distance: "I have no opinion!"

"Is that good?" Illya looked at Abbot and the others on the ground with some unease.

"Don't forget that there's a nanny over there!" Fang Qiubai laughed as he pointed to the ground-shaking bull in the distance that looked the size of a small black dot.

"Okay then, but what can we do when we go?" Illya nodded, but asked in confusion.

"Whatever he can do, I'll talk about it later. Qingshui Pass is in the northeast direction, right?" Fang Qiubai said as he adjusted the direction and opened a portal, and the three of them walked in one by one.

"I didn't expect you to be so accurate!" Xia Na patted Fang Qiubai's waist approvingly.

It turned out that the three of them appeared in front of a huge city wall, and they didn't have to think that the natural thing in front of them was Qingshui Pass.

"This is Qingshui Pass?" Fang Qiubai looked at in surprise that the city wall was not lower than the city wall of Lakdor, the capital of the Yongan Empire, and even looked much thicker, he was completely surprised when he originally thought that Qingshui Pass was just a small village-like level.

"This is Qingshui Pass, that's right! Out of the winter city wall is the territory of the Mingda Empire. Illya nodded and introduced.

"It's so big, I thought the border village would be very small and backward. As he walked forward, Fang Qiubai looked at the city wall in front of him, but the city wall was too high to see what was inside the level.

Only then did Illya understand what Fang Qiubai was surprised about, and explained with a smile: "This place is usually connected to the trading places of the two empires, and the development is naturally not bad, and there is a desert between the Blue Sword Castle and the Yongan Empire, which can rely on commerce to develop so well, how can Qingshui Pass be bad?"

"It's really big enough!" After some review, the three of them finally entered Qingshui Pass, walking on the stone road that was twice as wide as Yinshan City, Fang Qiubai sighed.

"The road surface here is said to have been deliberately built to make it easier for troops to pass quickly. As the only native, Illya was the only one to speak.

"Xiaoya, what is that?" Xana, who was originally interested in looking left and right, suddenly pulled Illya's sleeve.

"What?" Fang Qiubai curiously leaned over to Xia Na's side, almost touching the other party's face and looking at it.

Illya first glared at Fang Qiubai with a smile, and then she looked at two boys who looked no more than sixteen or seventeen years old who were shirtless, wearing shorts, and crackling with weapons in their hands: "Oh, that's a custom here in Qingshuiguan, young people who have confidence in themselves show their talents on this street, maybe they will be favored by the army or some kind of power." ”

"But the strength is too low, right?" Fang Qiubai couldn't help but sigh after looking at it.

"Well, just like I used to be," Illya nodded.

Even Fang Qiubai could see it, and the people who came and went naturally could see it, indicating that although the two boys were fighting quite fiercely, no one stepped forward to ask.

After a while, both of them were out of breath and couldn't catch up, looking at the crowd around them who only made a sound but no one made a sound, a trace of gloom flashed in their eyes, and they helplessly put away their weapons and prepared to leave in despair.

"I suddenly thought of something interesting!" Fang Qiubai's eyes lit up, and he suddenly whispered.
