Chapter 21 Escape!
Jasmine's small caravan was marching slowly and was approaching the mercenary city. There were more caravans on the road. Compared with these caravans, Jasmine's caravan was really small and pitiful.
There were about a dozen guards, some old and young, and their equipment was patchwork. Two cargo carriages were filled with goods, plus Jasmine's small carriage. The group of people walked among these large caravans, looking particularly shabby.
Passing by the city gate, the guard guarding the gate was full of surprise when he saw such a shabby caravan. It was hard to understand that such a group of people could get through the golden road safely! Did the bandits take a collective rest?
After entering the city, Jasmine and Celia parted ways. Jasmine was busy handling the goods. The business went so smoothly this time. Jasmine is now full of hope that the family can also take this opportunity to regain some strength. She believes that the Chamber of Commerce will soon be able to get out of the predicament.
Celia only planned to rest in the city for one day, and then continue to search for her graduation badge. I wonder what the college thought of hiding her graduation badge so far away!
The city of mercenaries really lives up to its name. There are countless mercenary groups in the city. The tavern is the best place for mercenaries to relax. From time to time, the heroic shouts of mercenaries can be heard.
The reason why the city of mercenaries is called 'Mercenary City' is not just because of the gathering of mercenaries. It is because this city is completely controlled by the mercenary alliance. With several surrounding towns, the area controlled by the alliance is quite large.
as big as a kingdom
The alliance is composed of several super mercenary groups, which can also be called SSS-level mercenary groups. Each mercenary group has at least a saint-level strongman in charge! Therefore, the strength of the entire alliance cannot be underestimated.
Walking on the streets of the mercenary city, the surrounding buildings were very different in style from Qianyuan City, full of the heroic and heroic atmosphere of the mercenaries. Celia took the unicorn horse to find a clean hotel and asked for a room to rest.
After taking a bath, Celia lay on the bed and looked at the map, her two tender white feet shaking, making Jin Yang feel dizzy.
"Jin Yang, what do you think the academy thinks and why it hides my badge so far away? It's useless to ask, you're just a dumb bird! Humph!"
Celia asked, and finally she did not forget to despise her magic pet. After hearing this, Jin Yang became so angry that his veins bulged, and he immediately let out a crow, seriously proving that he was not mute!
"——Tch! What's the point of crowing? It can't be used as a big rooster. Tell me, if my father knew that I signed a contract with you, would he roast you? Ah, do you think it's possible?"
Celia rolled her eyes and started to scare Jin Yang
The veins on Jin Yang's head turned into cold sweat, and he wailed in his heart
"Why is this world so cruel? I was forced to sign a contract, and in the end I had to be roasted. Oh my God, I was completely forced!"
Looking at the frightened Jin Yang, Celia smiled proudly
"Hehe, hehe, it's so interesting! You stupid bird, you are so cute. Don't worry, my sister will protect you!" As she said this, Celia reached out and stroked the feathers on Jin Yang's head.
"——Damn it! I'm so angry!——Little girl!——I'll die!"
Jin Yang swooped down angrily, lowered his head and hit Celia's chest, because the flesh was thick! It couldn't be damaged by the hit.
After playing for a while, one person and one bird rested. The two people who were playing did not realize how dangerous and difficult their journey would be in the future!
The weather was sunny and the wind was gentle. Celia packed her bags and left the hotel with Jin Yang, purchased some supplies and dry food, and led the unicorn horse out of the city. It was a windy and dusty journey, and she drove towards the death desert in the north.
The road from the Mercenary City to the Desert of Death was winding and had to pass through mountains, forests and canyons. At this time, in one of the steep mountain canyons, several masked figures in black were talking about something.
"Mr. Masked Man, are you sure that girl will pass by here? You have been waiting for such a long time. Is there any wrong news?"
"Your Highness, please rest assured that the news is absolutely accurate! Let me tell you that we have complete control of the map information in Celia's hands. Even the selection of the mission location has our influence! Otherwise, do you think the academy will support her?
so far?"
After the man in black finished speaking, he let out a sinister and weird smile.
"Your Excellency is indeed very powerful. I will rely on your organization to show off your power later."
After hearing what the man in black said, Wells became wary. Why would the other party come after him if he had so much energy? He winked at the guard next to him and told him to be careful. The guard said nothing in silence.
Nod to show understanding
The man in black is very powerful, and Wells's movements are completely in his eyes, but he doesn't care much. Only now does he know how to be careful, what did he do a long time ago! Now that everything is under control, he doesn't take pictures
Whatever little move Wells makes, his fate is no longer in his control!
Celia and Jin Yang were traveling all the way. It was already past noon and the sun was setting in the west. Celia urged the unicorn to speed up and planned to find a place to camp and rest.
The unicorn drove into the canyon. The lush forests around the canyon made the already scarce sunlight even thinner, making the whole canyon look dark and deep.
Celia slowed down her horse, carefully guarding against the monsters that might attack. The horse walked to the middle of the canyon. The middle was very wide. The whole canyon was like a shuttle, wide in the middle and narrow on both sides. There were a few huge rocks, grass and trees scattered on both sides of the stone wall.
sparse
"——Coax, bang!"
There was a loud noise, and a crack suddenly opened on the ground. The unicorn had no time to react and fell directly into the open crack. Celia stepped on the horse's back, flew up, and hurriedly launched the ice shield to block the attack.
Several magic attacks coming
Jin Yang was also startled by this sudden change and panicked to help Celia resist several attacks.
"—Who's there!? Get out!"
"Scare, scare, scare! The little girl is pretty good, but you are destined to fall here today!"
There was a hoarse weird laugh, and several masked men in black walked out from behind the boulders on both sides. The earth mage activated the earth wall to block the way forward and retreat, and another tall man spoke out.
"Little beauty, as long as you surrender obediently, I promise not to lose a single hair on you! And you can have delicious food and countless jewels at your disposal!"
"It turns out it's you! Wells! You despicable and shameless villain! You actually use this method without any aristocratic shame!"
Celia saw this arrogant figure. Although the other person deliberately changed his voice, Celia still recognized the other person's identity from his expression and movements.
"Huh! Now that you recognize me, I can't let you go!"
When Wells saw that his identity was exposed, he pulled off his mask and called for everyone to take action. The man in black looked at Wells who seemed to be mentally retarded. He admitted his identity when provoked, but for the sake of the plan, he could only endure it for a while.
"bass!"
Celia twisted her hands, and the blade of the staff popped out from the top. At the same time, she chanted a spell, and swung the staff to send out several ice picks to hit the warriors who were rushing over.
Fighting spirit breaks out, Celia uses all her magic weapons to fight with her opponent
As early as the beginning, Jin Yang flew into the air and continuously sent out fireballs to attack the enemies below. He knew that with his current level, going down to fight would only drag down Celia. Only by flying in the air can he have the greatest effect.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Loud noises kept coming from the canyon, the ground was covered with ice chips, and there was a faint chill. Celia was fighting very hard. Among the people on the other side, there were two high-level great swordsmen, and two were high-level great demons.
The mentor, plus several other sword masters and magicians, unless they have saint-level strength and fly directly out of the canyon, it will be difficult to escape!
Celia has been able to withstand it to the limit now! There are many wounds left on her body. It is because of Celia's dual cultivation of magic and martial arts, coupled with the strong body brought by dragon power and dragon blood that she can persist until now. If it were replaced by an ordinary
The great mage had been killed instantly
The battle was so fierce that it was difficult for Jin Yang to intervene. For the first time, Jin Yang hated himself so much, hated his own weakness, and hated his own incompetence!
Looking at Celia, who was gradually unable to resist, Jin Yang's eyes were filled with bloodshot eyes! He was helpless, the fire of the scorching sun had long been exhausted, and ordinary fireballs had little effect! But he still used fireballs to attack the enemy crazily, even if he could
Even if Celia reduces the pressure a little bit, Jin Yang will not give up!
"Elf in the earth, obey my call,¥#¥%*(¥@¥%¥#"
Celia, who was struggling to resist the attacks of the two great swordsmen, was startled when she heard the magician's spell in the distance. She knew something was not right, and burst out with fighting energy. She pushed the two great swordsmen away and slammed the ground with her staff.
Use your strength to jump to the mountain wall
Celia just flew off the ground, flat ground
"boom!"
Several sharp spikes shot out with a sound. The spikes were sharp and hard. The stone ground was torn into several pieces and scattered around the spikes.
Celia felt a sharp pain under her feet. Knowing that she had been injured by a sharp thorn, she used her remaining strength to step hard on the mountain wall and made a last-ditch effort.
Flying in mid-air, Celia closed her eyes in despair. At this moment, this scene was so familiar.
The same thing happened last time in the college arena. If it weren't for Jin Yang, he might have been gone long ago.
Celia, who had her eyes closed, felt someone lift her up, and then heard shouts and yells from below. She quickly opened her eyes and saw herself flying out of the canyon quickly. When she looked up, Jin Yang was holding on to her.
Flying with all my strength
Celia, who had regained her life, suddenly wanted to cry loudly to vent her grievances and fears, but now was not the time to cry, so she held back her tears.
Jin Yang was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat just now. Seeing that Celia was about to be unable to resist, in the end he was miraculously forced to jump into the air! Jin Yang was overjoyed, and was worried about how to save Celia, but this time it happened to him.
Sidelined
Seizing the opportunity, Jin Yang used his three legs together, grabbed Celia and ran away desperately! Without knowing the direction, he ran away deep into the mountain.
Not long after Jin Yang flew out of the canyon, the two great swordsmen and the great mage also quickly caught up from the canyon and hung tightly behind Jin Yang.
