As a bloodline wizard, Doakes has always had a high regard for his own combat prowess. Therefore, when he saw the questioning look in the eyes of the Wise Lord, his self-esteem was severely hit.
"I have never been afraid of a battle, nor have I been timid about it. This time there is a special reason!" Doakes solemnly declared.
Vai next to him also nodded: "Yes, he has always been neither afraid of nor timid about fighting."
Doakes looked at Vai with emotion. Sure enough, they were still friendly even in times of adversity.
But Vai's next words made Doakes feel like an arrow had been shot in the chest.
Vai: "The reason why he is neither afraid of fighting nor afraid of fighting is his inspiration. His inspiration is very good. If he thinks he can fight, he will fight. If he can't fight, he will never provoke. So, there is indeed no problem of being timid or afraid of fighting.
"
Doakes: "..."
Vai: "As for why he changed his mind on the spot this time, he was right. His talent for inspiration was damaged. He didn't predict whether the battle should be fought or not, so he put down his bold words."
Vai completely restored Doakes's heart. The most important thing is that the truth is almost the same. He is worthy of being a close friend for many years.
With Vai's well-founded statement, Doakes was obviously a bit weak if he wanted to refute again.
Doakes glared at Vai hatefully, his teeth grinding loudly. He wished he could crush Vai right now. This guy only knows how to cause trouble and has no respect for his predecessors at all!
When Doakes was in trouble, the Black Earl, who had never dealt with Doakes very well, actually said a few words on his behalf.
"Doakes' main bloodline is the bloodline of the Swordback Sandworm." Black Earl: "And Gray Merchant's bloodline is the Gemstone Earth Dragon. This bloodline has a strong natural restraint against all earth-based bloodlines."
Therefore, what the Black Earl means is that Doakes can only be regarded as having bad luck.
Everyone thought about it carefully, and it was indeed true. Among the sandworms, the Sword-backed Sandworm is one of the most powerful in combat. Moreover, Doakes is good at swordsmanship, and the Sword-backed Sandworm can also control the sword stabs on its back.
The attack, fighting style and rhythm are highly consistent with Doakes's. Added together, Doakes' combat effectiveness is definitely not weak.
The strength of Gray Merchant is currently unknown. But since he has not yet entered the path of true knowledge, his overall strength should not be too great compared to Doakes.
The only difference Doakes has is in the restraint of his bloodline.
The importance of the main bloodline of the wizard on the bloodline side is self-evident. The bloodline is naturally restrained, so Dox's chance of winning against the gray merchant will naturally be greatly reduced.
The Black Earl saved Doakes with a simple word. Doakes was grateful and turned to look at Angel: "Well, how about I fight against the evil woman, and you fight against the gray merchant?"
"
A second ago, Doakes suggested that the Black Earl and the Gray Merchant, but now that the Black Earl spoke for him, he changed the direction without hesitation.
"Okay." Angel nodded noncommittally. He actually advocated that the Black Earl should not go up for the time being. The Black Earl is a trump card. Moreover, the Black Earl is a descendant of Noah and is the absolute target of that person. Maybe he
As soon as it goes up, there will be external blows falling from the sky.
Angel is not worried about the safety of the Black Earl. What he is worried about is that once the Black Earl's nose clone dies, the real body will arrive. Then should he also trouble the Iron-clad Granny?
Think about it and forget it.
After discussing the official wizards of the Traveling Merchant Organization, Kael raised his hand weakly: "Do you want to discuss their apprentices? I feel that the two of us may not be able to defeat them."
Vai also nodded in resignation: "How about we admit defeat?"
It's a mystery how much fighting power Vai still has after staying at home for so long. But there is no doubt that his desire to fight is the lowest among those present. Therefore, his proposal is normal.
However, Kael has no intention of giving up. Even if he is alone, he still wants to fight the four apprentices of the Traveling Merchant Organization.
When it comes to historical sites, especially places like the Relics, Kael really doesn’t want to miss them.
Faced with the different opinions of the apprentices, Angel and others also fell into thinking.
In fact, their idea is that if the apprentice loses, he loses, and there is a high probability of losing. As long as the official wizard side wins, they can still go to the legacy land, and the Black Earl can also go there on behalf of the descendants of Noah.
But now that Kael has expressed that he wants to go to the Legacy Land, Angel will have to seriously consider it.
Kael was the origin of this ruins exploration, and his opinions far surpassed those of others in Angel's heart.
But, how can Kalel and Vai win the battle of apprentices?
This question feels more taxing than their victory in the battle.
The silence of the wizards made Kael's eyes dim slightly. Looking at the current situation, he had already decided that he might not be able to enter the legacy this time.
This is not to blame other people, I can only say that the rules arranged by the one hiding in the mirror are really unfair. Apprentices are human beings too...
When Kael was sobbing in his heart, Angel said, "It's too early to admit defeat now."
Vai and Kael were both stunned for a moment, then looked up at Angel.
Angel turned to look at the wise master and said seriously: "It should be normal for a wizard apprentice to have a wind creature as a partner, right?"
The wise man rules: "???"
…
After a few more minutes, the wise master whispered: "They are coming."
As the words fell, everyone heard the sound of footsteps coming from the direction of the prison ladder door.
Vai sensed distant sounds through the vibrations of the earth: "Why are there only four footsteps?"
Soon, Vai's doubts were answered.
From behind the gate of the prison ladder, a group of people slowly walked out.
The one at the front is a man who looks like an iron tower, wearing a gray mask and a gray cloak wrapping his body.
There is no doubt that this is the Gray Merchant. Apart from his abundant blood and strong body, there is nothing particularly surprising about him.
However, behind the gray merchant, there is a very strange woman.
This woman is suspended in mid-air, with long purple-red hair that reaches her knees flowing freely. She has a graceful figure, but half of her body is wrapped in bandages, and even the ankle bandage is directly connected to Hui Shang's wrist. It can be seen that
It looks like the gray merchant is flying her like a kite.
The side without the bandage is in a gorgeous and gorgeous skirt, and there is a large bright red pattern tattoo on the slightly exposed collarbone.
Her face was also half covered by the bandage, but from the gap in her hair, you could see that the left half of her face was very beautiful. However, her eyes, lip color, and the snake letters spit out from time to time
, are very different from normal people.
The aura on her body is no weaker than that of Gray Shang. From this, we can basically judge that she should be the wizard who transformed the lineage - the evil woman.
The two formal wizards took the lead, followed naturally by the gray merchant's apprentices.
The man wearing a brown mammoth mask looked like an underage pink-haired girl, and a green-haired young man with freckles and a lazy expression.
"It's strange, wasn't it said there were six people? Why does it look like there are only five people now, and there are only four footsteps?" Vai asked doubtfully.
The evil woman was floating in mid-air, and there was no sound of footsteps. Each of the other four people had one footstep, so the number was correct, there were only five people.
When Vai was confused, Angel pointed at the shadow of the pink-haired girl.
Vai looked in the direction he was pointing. The shadow on the ground should have been that of a girl with a slender figure, but the shadow was obviously not that of a woman, but the shadow of a man with broad shoulders.
Vai thought of what the wise master had said before, that the four apprentices were: Fen Mo, Demon Elephant, Shepherd, and Ghost Shadow.
Is the shadow on the ground a ghost? He is actually the last apprentice?
While Vai was speculating, the gray merchant and his party had already walked out of the gate of the prison ladder.
The pink-haired girl looked around animatedly: "Hey, it's not like they are here, why can't you see any shadow at all?"
Putting the mask on his waist, the sloppy green-haired young man stretched and replied: "Wouldn't it be better not to be here? I don't want to fight outsiders without understanding any problems. And..."
The green-haired young man turned the piccolo in his hand and lowered his voice: "Besides, I trust Lord Bai Shang's judgment."
The pink-haired girl slumped her shoulders and muttered in frustration: "I also believe in Lord Bai Shang's judgment, but, but..."
——But, I can’t help myself.
Bai Shang believes that outsiders are more friendly than provocative. Even if they catch up, it is best to communicate first to see if the problem can be solved amicably.
It sounds like Bai Shang's character is conservative and dovish, but this is not the case. Usually when he encounters similar situations, he basically follows the process of tracking, imprisoning, and interrogating him. If he dares to resist during the chase, he will be killed without mercy.
The reason why Bai Shang prefers communication this time is simply because among the outsiders this time, there are at least two wizards. What's more, what's unusual is that there is also a technical talent who specializes in magic energy arrays.
Faced with two wizards who had not yet met and everything was unknown, Bai Shang did not recommend them to fight directly from the perspective of the traveling merchant organization, from the perspective of avoiding casualties, and from the perspective of the Bilos family.
Unfortunately, fate is not up to anyone. On the way here, they encountered the "man in the mirror", and the gray merchant's most important memory was also locked up in the mirror.
There is no way not to fight now.
Seeing the pink-haired girl's dejected look, Hui Shang comforted him: "Feng Mo, don't think too much about it. There is victory or defeat in battle, but it does not necessarily mean life or death. Besides, if you get to know each other in battle, isn't it more passionate?"
To be continued...
