Thirty-nine Devil's Corridor
On this day, Baron Heimer, the lord of the city of Lomba, welcomed a distinguished guest.
The distinguished guest was from St. Lessburg, Earl of Phyllis, and arrived early in the morning, only four days before the Baron sent the messenger.
It takes more than 700 kilometers from St. Lunsburg to Lumba City. It takes as fast as three days for the messenger to deliver the message. This man came here in just one day. The speed was amazingly fast.
When the baron heard the servant's report, he warmly came out of the castle and saw a tall figure standing on the lawn.
This should be the Earl Envoy, Heimer excitedly greeted him.
But when he approached and saw the messenger's outfit clearly, the smile on his face immediately faded, almost thinking that his servant had deceived him.
This man was about thirties, upright and in his prime, and had a very strong figure, but he was only wearing ordinary short robes and shorts, and his hair was casually tied behind his head. He didn't even see weapons. This dress was so different from the image in the Baron's heart, and he looked like the commoners on the street.
If the man hadn't had a rose flower emblem on his left chest, the Baron would have thought that this guy was here to fool him.
When the messenger saw the baron, he just nodded, even if he had said hello.
The baron corrected his mind and said with a smile: "You are the Count's knight?" It looks like this dress is really different.
The man nodded: "I am Brunette, a third-level knight, and a member of the Fire Legion. Lord Earl asked me to help you hunt down the rebels."
The Fire Legion is the first legion under the Earl and is famous for its bravery. None of the members are bad, not to mention that the one who came was a third-level knight, which made Heimer very satisfied.
"Okay, okay. The Count is really intent." Heimer praised repeatedly, and he invited, "Don't you come in and sit?"
"No, I'm waiting for someone." Brunette simply closed his eyes and turned a blind eye to the Baron's enthusiasm.
Heimo gritted his teeth and tried hard to maintain the smile on his face, but because of the anger in his heart, the smile was still a little distorted and looked very funny.
After a while, a soldier suddenly exclaimed on the city wall. Heimer turned around and saw a huge black shadow appearing in the sky.
The black shadow approached very quickly, and Heimer saw clearly that it turned out to be a huge black hawk.
The eagle has a wingspan of nearly ten meters, its claws are like swords and its beak is like a hook, and its all shines with a cold light, which makes people frightened when they look at it.
Of course, Heimer knew the origin of this black hawk. This was the iron-backed giant eagle tamed by Earl Phyllis. It can be used to rush on the road and show its power on the battlefield. It is a good thing.
However, the cost of taming such an eagle is very expensive, and a small lord like Heimer is absolutely unbearable. He can only look around. Even Earl Phyllis has only raised a few heads.
The giant eagle swooped down, and when it reached its lowest point, the middle-aged man in a robe sitting on the eagle's back took advantage of the situation and jumped down.
He held a staff in his hand, and the staff was shining with clear light. When his body was still in mid-air, his side was covered with gray smoke.
The smoke quickly formed a virtual giant bird, slowly flapped its wings a few times, and held the mage inside and landed steadily on the ground.
Heimer felt awe of this method. He looked at the mage's robe and saw the three silver stars on it. It turned out to be a third-level mage.
After the mage landed on the ground, he first said to the Knight Brunette beside him: "I have visited Master Warren. His opponent is indeed a second-level warrior, and he has mastered a combat skill."
Brunei nodded and said casually: "It's a good young man, he's just on the dead end."
Then the mage turned to Heimer, and he did not introduce his identity. Such a little lord was not taken seriously by him at all.
He asked directly: "Do you have something left by that young man here?"
Heimer nodded quickly. He called the servant beside him, gave a few instructions, and the other party ran back immediately.
Soon the servant ran back, holding a bloody coat and a broken mail in his hand, which was replaced by Devin that night.
When this happened, Heimer saved the clothes, and of course he also knew that there were tracking spells in the world.
Seeing this, the mage's eyes lit up, he smiled, and praised Heimer: "You are very careful, good."
With this bloodstain, even if the other party escapes to the cape of Tianya, he can find him.
The mage stepped forward and picked up the bloody clothes and looked carefully. For some reason, after being preserved for so many days, the blood on the clothes was still bright red, just like it had just been dyed, and it looked very fresh.
This strange phenomenon made the mage frown and he wanted to speak but stopped.
Originally, he wanted to use all the clothes to cast spells, but at this time he just tore off a corner of the clothes and put away all other parts of the clothes.
Then the mage began to cast spells, and he pointed the staff on the blood in the cloth, revealing a series of syllables of unknown significance in his mouth.
What he is using now is not elemental spells, but belongs to the category of mysterious spells.
It is the existence of these mysterious spells that make the mage's status far higher than the same elemental user Elemental Warrior.
As the spell progressed, the blood on the cloth began to change, and the blood continued to move and gathered together. Finally, it jumped up from the cloth like it was given life, floating in the air, and quickly turned around the staff.
The blood bead emitted a faint red light, which surprised the mage even more. Of course, he understood what this red light represents, and this is the light of vitality.
This blood was preserved in the open air for four days, and it was still so vibrant, which was very rare.
However, although surprised, the mage said nothing and only focused on casting spells.
Brunette, who was standing beside him, had already been ready. When he spread his hands, a map of the Storm Kingdom appeared out of thin air between his hands.
The mage immediately moved the staff with blood drops and clicked on the map. He shouted softly: "Go, look for your master!"
The blood drop immediately seemed to be given life, and began to scroll quickly on the map, finally settled at a certain point, and then moved at an extremely slow speed.
Diheimer looked over and immediately exclaimed: "Devil's Corridor!"
The Devil Corridor is the name of the outer periphery of the Dark Forest. Only a few places can live outside, such as Vito Town. Most of the places are deserted and people are fine during the day, but at night it is quite dangerous.
In some areas, powerful monsters or even mixed-blood demons will appear, which is also the source of the name of this area.
The mage also frowned. Of course, he also knew that the monsters were not very scary. The key was the existence of the mixed-blood demon.
The hybrid demon is descended from demons and various mortal creatures. They are generally very powerful. If they encounter third-level professions, they will definitely not be able to take advantage of them.
The light on the mage's staff flashed an invisible wave, and the wave was emitted and all poured into the blood beads.
He took out another crystal bottle, put the blood beads on the map inside, and then handed it to Brunette.
This blood bead will guide them all the way to catch up with the target.
After doing all this, the mage said, "Sir Baron, don't worry. We will clear the rebellion in your mansion for you, and the Ice Snake Sword will return to the original owner. But Miss Alice may not have the chance to be with the eldest son."
The baron's heart was bleeding, but he could only smile: "Hey, my daughter has a bad fate, I just hope you can wash away her shame. I dare not ask for the rest."
The mage nodded, waved his staff, and the gems on it emitted another mysterious wave, and the giant eagle hovering in the sky immediately dived down.
At the same time, the mage once again cast the smoke bird, covering himself and the Knight Brunette, and flew onto the bird's back.
The iron-backed eagle took advantage of the momentum to flap its wings and flew back to the sky. The eagle's strength was very huge. With a blow of wings, a strong wind blew, making the lawn covered with wind and sand, and people who were close to it could hardly stand firm.
When the baron barely opened his eyes and looked up, the giant eagle had become a black dot in the sky, which showed how fast it was.
The giant eagle quickly flew out of Lumba City and reached the suburbs a few kilometers away from the city.
When he arrived here, the mage let the giant eagle land on the ground again.
Brunette asked strangely: "What's wrong? Lord Alvin?" Alvin was the name of the wizard.
The mage said in a voice: "The target we are going to chase is full of vitality in his blood, which is very precious! I have to rush back and figure out what's going on. This is very important. So this time, you can only go alone for the time being."
Blood is just one of the reasons, and secondly, he really doesn't want to touch the bad luck of the mixed-race demon.
Seeing him say this, Brunette gritted his teeth secretly, but could only nod.
Although he is a third-level knight, his status in St. Lessburg is far inferior to that of this mage.
Let me put it this way, he is just a soldier, an ordinary member of the Fire Legion, and this mage is the guest of honor for the Earl. There are no more than ten such mages in St. Lunsburg, and their status is very noble.
Therefore, Brunette could not refute his decision at all.
Master Aiwen took out another crystal bottle, which was filled with transparent liquid with dazzling golden light.
"This is the holy water of the sun that I received from the Archbishop. It contains extremely rich holy power. It cannot be used to heal wounds, but it is extremely lethal to dark creatures. Take it."
To enter the Devil's Corridor, this holy water is definitely a good thing. Brunette put it away with precious land.
After the explanation, Alvin rode on the giant eagle and flew straight towards the count's city of St. Lunsburg.
