Chapter IX: Conflict

Over the course of a few days, the villagers were busy preparing for the festival, which was the most important festival for the whole village, which lasted for three days. On the first day, the villagers thanked the sea and the earth for their abundant resources, on the second day, they thanked their ancestors for cultivating the land on which they depended, and on the third day, they prayed for a prosperous year. During these three days, the villagers gathered around to eat, drink, dance, and prepare snacks for the children that are not common on weekdays. Tomorrow the festival will begin.

"What the hell is Mira doing these days? Every time she goes, she doesn't want to see me. Lying alone on the bed, Osius muttered, "Could it be that I'm sick and worried about infecting me, I'm in such good health, how... By the way, is it really sick? No, I'll have to check it out. Osius tidied up a little and then walked out of the door.

From his house to Mira's house, you had to pass by Miil's house. "That kid hasn't seen anyone for a day, and he doesn't know what he's learned with Uncle Sony, so he just wants to win me?" "It turns out that he is back, let's go and have a look. Seeing that Miel's room was lit up, Oshous walked towards the light.

Just as he was about to knock on the door, he heard Mira's laughter coming from inside the house, and Oshous tiptoed to the door, and after thinking that he hadn't done anything unseemly, he asked them directly, and then pushed the door in.

"Good evening! How have the training results been in the past few days? Oshous greeted him in a good manner, and then said, "Isn't this Miss Mira? "By the way, Miss Mira is cured?" and I'm going to go to your house to see if it's not good, and we won't be able to play with you tomorrow. Oshous scratched his hair and laughed awkwardly.

"Who told you I'm sick!" Mira didn't notice Oshous's unnatural appearance, and continued, "It happens that tomorrow is your birthday, and I plan to give you a gift in advance, tomorrow Osho doesn't know where to run, and it won't be easy to find anyone." Oshous jumped with excitement when he heard the gift.

Mira took out two bags tied with blue ribbons and handed them to each of them, and then said, "I made it myself, I hope you will like it." I also like your gifts. As he spoke, he flashed a string of shell bracelets on his wrist. That must have been sent by Miel, Oshous thought.

"Let's see if it fits. Mira seems to be quite confident in her work. The bag contained two shirts of the same style and different colors, Miel received a white one, and Oshous held a crimson one in his hand. "It's really beautiful, can I put it on right now?" said Oshous excitedly. Mira smiled slightly when she heard this, and said, "Of course the gifts that have been given to you are okay." "Great!" said Osius as he began to take off his coat, "Ahem!" Miel next to him coughed softly. "I'll wear it again when I go home, and I'll wear it tomorrow. Osius came to his senses.

The three of them talked together for a while, and it was not too early. "It's so late, it's time for me to go home. Mira got up and said to the two, "Oshous won't fall asleep tomorrow, every time he gets scolded, he still doesn't have a long memory." "No, no, I promise not this time. Osius patted his chest and said, "I'd rather sit all night than fall asleep again." "That's what you said!" Mira said, already standing outside the door, "You two should rest early and see you tomorrow." Faded into the moonlight. "So, what about you?" Miel was about to ask him, "see you tomorrow." Oshous ran away without looking back.

Just as Oshous had just entered the door, and before he could change into the gift from Mira, a bell rang from the square, "Bell Bell" and "Bell Bell". Oshous knew the meaning, telling the villagers to evacuate quickly, and suddenly had an ominous premonition, and hurriedly picked up the big sword and ran out of the door. Halfway through, he ran into Miel, who was also dressed in the same attire, and asked, "What happened?" "I don't know, but it won't be a good thing." The two of them ran towards the square as fast as they could.

Along the way, I met many villagers who followed the instructions and left for refuge. Osius grabbed one casually and asked, "What happened, why did everyone come out." "I heard that the army of another country came to the entrance of the village, and the village chief brought a few people to negotiate with them. Come back quickly, and children don't get involved in the affairs of adults. The villager hurriedly stopped Oshous and the others, but before the words could be finished, they had already disappeared, and the two quickened their pace and ran in the direction of the entrance of the village.

When the two arrived, they saw the village chief, Sonny and Gino, as well as a few sturdy villagers. "I wonder if you came late at night to perform official duties?" asked Merlin, as the village chief, cautiously, looking at the hundreds of regular troops, a little afraid.

At this time, a burly man walked out of the crowd, his whole body wrapped in black battle armor, and under the moonlight, the wolf pattern on the gray battle robe looked particularly hideous. "We are the army of the Stumen Empire, borrowing grain and grass from your country. The leader of the big man said angrily. "Can you tell me your number? Gino glanced at Merlin, who was at a loss, and then said to the big man: "In that case, then you go in the direction of the Xiling garrison, and there will be someone to negotiate." After saying that, he also pointed them in the direction.

"It's inconvenient to tell you other things, but tomorrow Japan will negotiate with itself. The strong man was a little impatient and said, "It's not something you can afford to delay important things." ”

When had Merlin ever seen such a scene, he stumbled under his feet, and was just supported by Sonny, and whispered to him: "It's not good to come, you go quickly." With that, he stood in front of Gino, turned his head sideways, and whispered a few words.

"Bastard, old fellow, look for death!" the strong man took off the big sword behind him and slashed it at Gino's head. Sonny reacted very quickly, drew his saber, and blocked the big sword that attacked Gino, and suddenly the flames were everywhere. The big man exerted force in his hand, and the sword edge pressed against Sony inch by inch, and Sony lost the upper hand in strength. Sony made a quick decision, gave up the head-on competition with the big man, and kicked the big man in the lower abdomen, but did not cause harm. Sonny took advantage of the fact that the big man was still not able to stand firm, and stabbed several swords in succession into the gap between the armor.

The big man straightened up a little and danced the big sword out of a semicircle. Sonny withdrew from the range of his opponent's attack, and with a lever of his right foot, he slashed towards the top of the big man's head, but the big man dodged it, and the blade of the sword slashed at the armor on his shoulder. Dahan took a backhand punch towards Sony's side, and Sony jumped back a few steps, his eyes always locked on Dahan.

Dahan didn't attack at this time, stared at Sony and said, "It's worthy of being a famous killer on the mainland, right, Sonny Oran." Looks like 'that thing' is right here. After speaking, he turned to the soldier and said, "All the soldiers obey the order and kill all the people in the village." The soldiers received the order and charged towards the village. Dahan competed with Sony again.

"We went up to help too. Oshous, who was not far away, couldn't help but pull Miel and head to the battlefield.

"Those wine jars are the lifeblood of my old man, and I can't let you come here. As he spoke, the runes around him began to flash. On the battlefield, one mage is far from what a dozen of their soldiers can fight against. The army is always the army, and the first dozen or so cavalrymen were instantly put to the ground by Gino, and there was still green smoke on their bodies.

"Come back. An old voice in the army rang out: "The magician should be handed over to the magician, and you all step aside." The rest of the cavalry, as if pardoned, quickly turned their horses and retreated into the larger force. Oshous and the others also came up to Gino and raised their weapons to make a full stance. The big man on the side was still fighting with Sony, and it was difficult to tell the winner for a while.

"Bearded, what are they? Osius asked. "Bad guys. Gino explained briefly, and then said, "Come to me, lest my ass be cooked." With that, he took a few steps forward.

"Heyman Leopold of the Stuman Magic Force, I wonder who the other adult is?" Out of the crowd came an old man in a robe, with gray hair and traces of time on his face. With the support of the soldiers, he stood opposite Gino, and runes also appeared beside him.

"I've long forgotten the name or something, but I just hold the wine jar every day and wait for death. Gino wasn't going to answer him. "If you don't come here, with your strength, the leader of the magic legion is none other than you. As he spoke, the runes around him suddenly turned into countless ice spikes and flew towards Gino. "I can't stand the toss of this old bone, so you won't accept your kind old man. The rune shone brightly, turning into several arm-thick lightning bolts that stopped the ice spikes one by one.

The two sides tested each other for a while, and Heyman urged the runes to prepare to attack again, and a soldier came over and whispered a few words to him, and Heyman withdrew the runes and said to the big man who was fighting happily in the distance: "Lawrence, they have already succeeded, and the army of Jialan has discovered us." I'll talk about that little guy later. ”

"Retreat. Lawrence got on horseback and said to Sony, "Oran, don't be killed by someone else, your life is worth a lot." After saying that, he led the rest of the cavalry and left.

It didn't take long for hundreds of Jialan's iron horsemen to follow.

"Thank you for your protection. The man at the front of the line dismounted, took off his helmet and said, "Morard Vincent, who is in the third team of the Scout of the Fourth Legion of the Jialan Empire." Looks like we're a step too late. Morad looked at the soldiers of other countries who were groaning around him, and the military exploits in his hands ran away like this, and what was even more annoying was that he didn't dare to open his mouth to beg for it, at least he still had the judgment to see at a glance that he was defeated by magic. You must know that the status of a magician on the mainland is extremely lofty, and it is not something that a small character like him can offend.

"I don't know which magic legion you belong to. Morad said respectfully. "It's just an old man passing by. Gino waved his hand, and then said, "Something must have happened, Sturman's army has entered Jialan." Gino frowned. "Who knows what those war maniacs are thinking. Morad said helplessly: "In the past two months, we have successively defeated several teams of men, and during the interrogation, they all said that they were looking for some 'orthodox king'. It's ridiculous, how could their king come to Jialan? Stuman's army began to assemble, and there was no doubt that war would break out in the next two years. The more Morad spoke, the more excited he became.

Gino and Sonny looked at each other, then said, "I see. And I want you to do a little favor and clean these up. Don't let me do this old bone. After speaking, he pointed to the soldiers on the ground.

"Absolutely. Morad hurriedly ordered his men to take in these prisoners, for fear that Gino would regret it, and after a brief goodbye, he quickly left with a large group of people.

"It doesn't look safe. Gino said and beckoned to Oshous and Miel, who were standing on the sidelines, to come over. "There are things that should be told to you, while there is no one else now. Gino sighed. "What's the matter?" the two asked in unison. "Find a safe place. It was Sony who spoke.

"About your background!"
