Almighty Alchemist

Chapter 2 The Beast Tamer

The night on the plain is quiet and serene, dark and dark, with a hint of coolness.

There was a faint sound of music in the woods, as if someone was playing with leaves. Occasionally, there was the sound of people talking and laughing in low voices who were not asleep.

If you look into the woods at this time, you can see little by little bright green light spots, like countless floating fireflies.

"It's a pack of wolves." Xiuyi issued a low warning.

Beside him, Buckler, Lilith and others were hiding behind a carriage.

Perhaps sensing the danger, the horse tried to neigh, but was stopped.

"Maiha Plain is a densely populated area, so there shouldn't be wolves." Lilith was a little confused: "Even if there were, it was a very small part, mostly lone wolves."

"Unless someone brought them here," Buckler said coldly.

"The question is how to do that?" Eagle asked.

They looked at Xiu Yi together, and Xiu Yi smiled softly: "When I was on Purgatory Island, I learned some methods of luring prey, but I can't do it like this to lure all the wild wolves in a radius of hundreds of miles."

"Most people can't do it." Buckler said with certainty: "Unless there are some people with special abilities."

"Someone wanted to test us, but first exposed himself." Lilith sneered.

"Maybe he underestimated us." Eagle watched the green spots in the woods getting closer, and planned to make a move.

Xiu Yi held him down: "Don't fall for the trap, let the people below fight this battle, we won't make a move."

Eagle froze for a moment, then understood.

As far as strength itself is concerned, Xiu Yi, who has the black warrior, will definitely have the power to protect himself unless he encounters a sanctuary.

However, due to the inability to conceal the black warrior's special form, it was impossible for Xiu Yi to bring him out in public. As a human being, he also could not be included in the space ring, which greatly reduced the convenience of the black warrior.

Xiu Yi had to hide the black warrior in the box, and would not let him out unless necessary.

Under such circumstances, if someone tried to test them, existences such as Blazing Bird, Xu, and Undead Beast that would reveal Xiu Yi's identity were almost impossible to show up. Xiu Yi could not even use alchemy at will.

In the past, Xiu Yi didn't care about these things, after all, the identity of the Dardanelle family was used for camouflage, not for fighting.

But if this disguised identity is in danger, then what he faces is a dilemma.

Xiu Yi obviously understood this too, so at this moment, he could only hand over the important task of defense to the people below.

A huge wind wolf slowly approached the camp with cautious steps.

In the dark night, you can see a pair of faint green eyes, shining like a ghostly fire.

He walked a few steps forward cautiously, and when he was about to get closer to the camp, he suddenly shouted: "Let go!"

Wind Wolf immediately sensed the danger.

Countless crossbow arrows swished towards this side, and the wind wolf let out an angry roar: "Roar!"

Following this roar, the long arrow shot the wind wolf into a sieve.

A sharp howl resounded in the woods, and dozens of wind wolves emerged from the woods. They are very fast, roaring towards the camp.

Leile Yesa, the bandit leader from the Bilias Mountains, rushed forward brandishing a huge sword.

The big sword opened a gap, and cut a flying wind wolf in two in one stroke. Blood splashed all over him, but he let out a shout of excitement.

The warriors and servants of the Dardanelles and Weston families rushed out from the hiding place at the same time.

There was a scuffle in the camp.

In the noisy and chaotic environment, there were shouts and blood, but Xiu Yi remained calm in his heart.

He looked at the convoy camp on the opposite side, where more than a dozen wind wolves also attacked the camp.

What surprised Xiuyi was that the opposite convoy seemed unprepared for the sudden attack, and there was a little panic at first.

But the counterattack soon began, and some servants of the Eter family began to take up arms to fight the wind wolf.

"They look very skilled with their weapons," Buckler whispered in Huey's ear.

"That's not the problem, Brian, something's not right." Huey whispered.

"What's wrong?"

"If the wind wolves were attracted by them, they shouldn't attack them."

"Perhaps to avoid our suspicion?"

"Then they should also be prepared, this is a bit strange." Xiu Yi frowned.

In the dark night in the distance, amidst the noisy voices, there were voices shouting everywhere, but the leaders never appeared.

"That samurai didn't make a move." Xiuyi said, "It makes no sense for him not to make a move in this situation."

"What does this mean?"

"It means that they are also guarding against us." Xiuyi was sure: "They thought we did it, and they were testing them, as if we didn't make a move."

"You mean they didn't do it?" Buckler was surprised: "If it wasn't them, who would attack us?"

"It's not sure yet, maybe they're pretending to be alike, but anyway, the wild wolves won't run over by themselves."

The wind wolves are just the most common first-level monsters. Although their attacks caused some troubles for the convoy at first, the well-trained team quickly sorted out the formation. Under the shining light of the sword, it is believed that they will all be killed soon.

But the next moment, a deep roar came from the woods.

This roar was dull, but it carried a violent breath, which made everyone feel terrified when they heard it.

"It's a blood rhinoceros." Buckler said in a deep voice.

Several huge figures appeared in the grove. It was the blood rhinoceros, a third-level monster, an oversized carnivorous creature. They have sharp horns, thick skin, and long fangs. When they use their huge bodies to launch a short-distance sprint, once they hit a person, even the fighting spirit of an intermediate warrior cannot resist it.

This kind of monster is also hunted by the Lance Empire, and has formed the blood rhinoceros soldiers, one of the top ten special arms.

I didn't expect this kind of thing to appear on the Maiha Plain.

To deal with the blood rhinoceros, it would be difficult to rely on Lele Yesa and the others alone, and there might be casualties. Xiuyi nodded to Lilith, and Lilith understood.

Her enchanted arrow is the nemesis of these big guys.

Five blood rhinos rushed out of the grove, and three of them rushed towards the Dardanelle family convoy. Lilith took three long arrows. The biggest advantage of shooting these big guys is that they don't need to aim.

Three long arrows pierced the sky, pierced the blood rhino's body precisely, and exploded in their bodies.

These big guys didn't care about ordinary attacks at all, but the damage caused by these three enchanted arrows was far greater than ordinary attacks. They wailed fiercely and fell to the ground like a mountain.

Not far away, they were fighting with the wind wolf, and their subordinates shouted excitedly. When the blood rhinoceros rushed out just now, they were taken aback.

The other two blood rhinos ran towards the end of the Aite family, but Lilith ignored them, she really wanted to know how the other party could stop them.

She saw it quickly.

Two sharp sword lights were drawn in the tent, shining like a falling comet.

The two charging blood rhinos fell silently without even howling.

It was the samurai, Huey and Buckler looked at each other.

"At least he is a sky warrior, and he may also be a star powerhouse." Buckler licked his lips.

There was another humming sound in the sky.

Xiu Yi raised her head suddenly, but saw a large group of dark clouds flying from the sky.

"Damn it, it's a hawkbill, a level five monster." Buckler growled.

From the lowest-level wind wolf, to the blood rhinoceros, to the eagle-billed beast, a large number of monsters were driven by people to attack them, but they still didn't know who the enemy was hiding in the dark and where they were hiding.

If this is a temptation, then such a temptation has undoubtedly crossed the line.

Xiu Yi looked at the opposite motorcade: "I hope this is not a good thing you guys did, otherwise I will be really angry."

"Everyone be careful!" Buckler screamed loudly.

The five-level hawkbill is not as easy to deal with as the wind wolf and the blood rhinoceros. These guys have sharp long claws, iron mouths that can penetrate iron plates, and can also release a little wind spells. The worst thing is that their number is much more than that of blood rhinos.

Buckler had drawn his sword out of its sheath, Lilith was raising an arrow to the sky, and even Igor raised his undead bone staff.

Only Xiu Yi's face sank like water, and he didn't move at all.

What is he looking for.

The deep music in the sky is melodious, looming.

"Someone is in the woods, and that person is directing these beasts with music." Xiuyi's voice was a little murderous.

"I'll go take a look." Lilith planned to go over.

"No, you stay here and let me go." Xiuyi stopped Lilith.

"You?" Lilith was a little surprised.

Xiu Yi nodded with certainty: "Even if I don't use alchemy or Asahi, I can still fight. Believe me, Lilith."

"Okay then, I'll wake up the black warrior. If you're in danger..." Lilith's eyes revealed a murderous look: "Then just let it go and kill everyone who sees your attack."

"Don't worry, I know, protect Christine." Xiuyi ordered.

The girl chewed her displeased lips.

———————————

Taking advantage of the darkness of the night, Xiu Yi sneaked towards the woods.

His speed was extremely fast, and the lightness brought to him by the wind spell played a big role at this moment.

Like a wisp of light smoke drifting across the battlefield, Xiuyi sent herself into the woods.

He didn't notice that in the opposite convoy, a figure rushed into the woods almost at the same time.

Xiu Yi ran quickly in the woods, running towards the source of the sound. In the depths of the grove, it was getting darker and darker, and Xiu Yi jumped like a monkey. As if he had returned to the jungle of Purgatory Island, he could feel the breath of the wind.

Not far ahead.

Xiu Yi accelerated forward.

Suddenly, a black shadow rushed out from the slanting stab and rushed towards Xiu Yi. Without even thinking about it, Xiu Yi slashed forward with the long sword. The black figure obviously didn't expect the opponent's reaction to be so fast, and quickly dodged back.

His flash, but he made a fatal mistake.

He didn't expect Xiu Yi to be a magician.

When the incantation sounded, the black shadow was obviously startled, and he tried to charge forward again, but Xiu Yi had already quickly finished the magic chant, and a mental shock wave hit the black shadow.

The figure stopped.

Xiu Yi flashed forward, and unceremoniously pierced the opponent's chest with a sword.

The black shadow wailed and fell to the ground.

Xiu Yi lifted the mask, and the face of the other party was very strange, not from the Eter family's convoy.

While he was confused, he suddenly had a dangerous feeling in his heart. It was completely an instinctive reaction. Xiu Yi quickly stepped back, only to see that the body of the deceased suddenly exploded, with countless pieces of flesh and blood flying around, and there was even a puff of green smoke.

Green smoke is everywhere, and flowers and plants are withered.

What means? Huey was also taken aback.

Before this, he had never heard of a way to attack an opponent after death.

As for poison, he was not afraid at all. Alchemists had sufficient detoxification methods, but if the reaction to the explosion just now was insufficient, even mid-level warriors would be severely injured if they did not use fighting energy to protect themselves.

So far, Xiu Yi has been sure that this is no longer a tentative behavior, but a real offensive behavior.

Some people called ferocious beasts to attack them in the forest, and at the same time, a group of dead soldiers followed.

For safety's sake, Xiuyi chanted the summoning spell, and a black nightmare image appeared in the air.

It was the Guardian Nightmare, and this was the only existence that Xiu Yi could summon without worrying about revealing his identity.

A few more scout bees were released casually, following behind the scout bees, Xiu Yi continued to fly into the forest.

Several masked assassins hid in the dark and tried to stop Xiu Yi, but they were all discovered by Xiu Yi and Guardian Nightmare. Their strength was mediocre, and Xiu Yi unceremoniously knocked them all down. The hawkbills in the sky have come above their heads and are attacking the two convoys. Maybe they can't deal a fatal blow to their own side, but under the attack of these hawkbills, there must be many casualties. And God knows, what is hidden in the dark is whether some kind of monsters can be summoned.

No matter what kind of monsters appear next, Xiuyi believes that they are not what he wants to see.

The sooner he catches the guy who drives the monster, the better, although he still can't be sure who the black hand behind the scenes is, but no matter who the other party is, since he tries to attack him, he must pay the price.

The sharp whistling sound in the forest was getting closer, and Xiu Yi could feel that he was getting closer to the other party.

He was about to accelerate forward when a huge black figure in midair rushed towards him.

Xiu Yi rolled over on the spot, dodging the terrible blow, and smashed a huge dent in the ground with a ferocious pounce.

"Huh!" A deep roar sounded, behind the thick and long fangs was a terrifying face.

Spotted leopard, a seventh-level monster.

Huey frowned.

To be honest, he is not worried about a seventh-level monster. He has too many means to deal with this guy, but the problem is that most of them cannot be used under the current situation.

If he only used spells and vindictive energy, it meant that he would have to spend a long time to deal with this guy.

That could lead to casualties among our own personnel.

Perhaps this is exactly what one would expect?

Expect casualties? Or do you expect him to show all his strength?

Xiu Yi hesitated, and after thinking for a while, he finally decided to make a quick decision.

"Come on, beast!" He pointed his sword at the big guy, sneered contemptuously, and sang Void Zhan's soft murmur.

"Roar!" The big guy in front of him let out an angry low voice.

The figure turned into smoke.

———————————

The mysterious figure of the girl walks through the forest.

Contrary to Huey, when she was running, she hardly gave anyone the feeling of existence. Every shadow is a cover that can be used, as if he was born to walk in the dark night, perfectly integrating himself with nature.

So much so that she is obviously a person, and she is obviously moving, but you can't see her, or even understand her existence.

At this moment, the girl's expression was a little weird, because she also realized that this was not a tentative attack from the Dardanelles, but a real attack.

The question is who is attacking them? And for what?

The original tentative plan was abandoned because of this sudden attack, and people from both sides worked together to fight at this moment.

Maybe a chance to get closer? The girl thought.

The girl bit her lip tightly, and quickly disappeared into the forest like a ghost.

Thanks to her excellent stealth skills, she encountered few obstacles along the way.

The bright moonlight could not bring much light to the dense jungle, but it was enough for her to see clearly the road under her feet and the black shadow sitting on the boulder in the distance.

Black Shadow is an old man with a bamboo whistle in his mouth, and he is blowing a strange melody softly.

This should be the guy who summoned the monster to attack. The girl moved her steps carefully, trying to get close to him.

There was no one guarding that guy anymore, and in the depths of the forest, there was a dull sound of fighting.

A quick fix, the same idea was born in her mind.

The girl sprang out like a sword, bringing out a bright blood flower in the dark night.

—————————

After Xiuyi solved the spotted leopard, he heard the voices in the forest stop abruptly.

Losing the sound source, it took him a while to find his target.

The target was a middle-aged man, who had a sword in his heart and lay down on the boulder with a face full of astonishment.

Obviously the deceased was unprepared for this sudden attack, so that he may not have seen the attacker clearly when he died.

Huey inspected the corpse carefully, and then took out the crystal ball:

"Buckler, have the monsters on your side retreated?"

"Yes." Buckler's voice came from the crystal ball: "Those hawkbills have retreated, did you kill that guy?"

"I didn't kill it." Xiu Yi observed the surrounding environment: "Someone came from the other side of the forest, touched this guy, and gave him a sword. The strike was clean and neat, and the other party didn't even have a chance to fight back."

"Who will it be?"

"It should be the leader of the Aite family."

"That girl?"

"From the first moment I saw her, I had a sense of danger. Now I know where this feeling came from." Xiuyi said, while searching the surroundings: "There are no footprints, no traces of plants and branches being trampled down, she floated over like a ghost, and then made a fatal blow...a well-trained killer, a real night assassin."

Xiu Yi made a judgment: "A terrible woman."

Buckler was silent for a long time on the other end: "Anyway, this time it's a common enemy."

"The only question is, who are the people attacking us for, or no one?" After observing the surrounding environment, Huey began to examine the dead. It seems that the girl who killed him has searched it all over, but can't find anything that can prove the identity of the other party.

"It's impossible to determine the identity of the person who attacked us, but the person lying here should be a beast tamer... It's a pity." Xiuyi whispered.

Beast trainer is a rare profession in Fengming Continent. They can domesticate Warcraft for their own use through some special secret methods. It's just that with the withering of the mainland's resources and the deterioration of the living environment of monsters, a large number of monsters no longer appear in people's vision, and the value of beast trainers is gradually unable to be reflected.

This animal trainer was able to control the seventh-level monsters for his own use, so he was considered an intermediate-level animal trainer. This time, for some reason, he came to attack them, but he was killed strangely, which made Xiu Yi feel very sorry.

You must know that the animal trainer is the best partner of the alchemist. Like the plant master, they are people who can bring a lot of materials to the alchemist. During the most prosperous period of alchemy, the alchemist was usually accompanied by a beast trainer or a planter. The latter searches for materials for the former, while the former manufactures various alchemy props for the latter to further play their roles.

It is said that high-level beast trainers can control a large number of high-level monsters to serve them. Like alchemists, their strength is not reflected by their fists, but by the special power they possess.

This is what Xiu Yi regretted. If he could come here before others and find out that this guy is a beast trainer, he would definitely not choose to kill the opponent, but immediately capture the opponent alive, press for answers, and even try to force the opponent to use him.

From this point of view, the person who killed him didn't care who attacked them, which may also mean that the person who killed him may have known who did it and why.

In other words, if the animal trainer was really killed by the girl from the Aite family, then the other party's real target should be them.

Having figured this out, Huey breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as you don't expose yourself, everything will be fine.

After thinking about it, he casually sprinkled a handful of phosphorescent powder on the corpse.

With a bang, the body ignited a flame, and burned to ashes after a while.

Xiu Yi put down the crystal ball and walked out of the forest.

Back at the camp, the monsters had retreated.

Both teams are sweeping the field and picking up the pieces.

"Buckler, how are the casualties of the brothers?"

"It's not bad, no one died, but there are more than a dozen injured, waiting for your medicine."

Xiuyi took out a few bottles of healing potions and handed them to Buckler.

Not far away, the Aite family was also treating the wounded. One of the other party's subordinates was seriously injured, but the man was so stubborn that he insisted on humming without groaning.

With a slight movement in his heart, Xiu Yi walked over.

"I have some medicine here, which may be helpful to you." Xiu Yi shouted from a long distance, expressing his purpose.

Perhaps it was because of sharing adversity that they relaxed their guard a lot. Xiu Yi came to the side of the seriously injured person and fed him a big mouthful of healing potion.

"Top-level medicine?" A clear voice sounded in my ear, like a flowing spring in a mountain stream.

Xiu Yi didn't raise her head: "Yes."

"It is very difficult to buy such potions now, thank you very much for your generosity."

"Anyway, we will fight side by side tonight, and we are comrades-in-arms."

Huey stood up slowly.

He saluted the girl behind him as a gentleman: "Do you know who is attacking us?"

The girl looked at Xiu Yi with puzzled eyes: "People? Isn't it just some beasts?"

Her voice sounded confused and innocent.

Xiu Yi smiled: "Yes, it's just some beasts, I'm sorry I used the wrong word."

The girl clasped her hands together: "I really didn't expect there to be so many wild beasts in the Maiha Plain. It's too scary. Fortunately, we have brave family warriors, and fortunately, we are with you. This allows us to work together."

"Exactly right, oh yes, may I ask what should I call you?"

"Amelia."

"Siserda Daniel." Huey saluted the girl, "Nice to meet you, Miss Amelia."

The short exchange ended like this, and Huey returned to the camp, and the two sides still kept a polite distance from each other.

The girl in front of her looks innocent, but Xiuyi is almost sure that when this girl who calls herself Amelia approaches you, she may bring more death than youthful laughter.

Stay as far away as possible if you can.

When Xiuyi left, the girl looked at him with strange colors: "Siser Darnell... is really interesting. Bruin, do you think he will be the person we are looking for?"

"I'm not sure." The sword-wielding warrior replied in a low voice: "There are too many uncertainties in this world, too many coincidences, and too many misunderstandings. The contact tonight may be a coincidence or just a misunderstanding. In my opinion, the key to the question is whether there is a follow-up story."

"Following story?" The girl looked at the samurai with a questioning look.

"They are also going to Winnington." The samurai replied in a strange tone: "This means that we will meet again, right?"

"That's right." The girl nodded: "We will meet again. Do the things at hand well first, and as for the things behind...let's try and see."

"That's right."

The girl and the samurai walked towards the camp.

———————

"Amelia..." Buckler frowned, and he asked Xiuyi, "Are you sure that's her name?"

"Yes, is there a problem?"

"No, there is no problem." Buckler shook his head: "If you look at it from the perspective of a Lance person, there is no problem."

"What's the meaning?"

Buckle replied leisurely: "In Frank, Amelia means to control the enemy."

Xiu Yi was slightly taken aback.

Looking back at the lonely night again, there was no trace of the girl.

"Controlling the enemy..." Huey murmured, "It's interesting, lies collide with lies, actors meet actors. Bryan, maybe this trip to Winnington will be much more lively than we imagined."

"As a bandit leader, I actually prefer to be clean." Buckler replied with a smile.

Huey shrugged.

That night, calm was finally restored.

Perhaps it was the result of the ups and downs caused by the attack. Lying in his tent, Xiuyi didn't feel sleepy at all.

A black shadow appeared in front of Xiu Yi's tent.

Xiu Yi swung the long sword backhand, startling the opponent.

"it's me."

It turned out to be Lilith.

Xiu Yi breathed a sigh of relief: "Why are you?"

"I'm a little scared, and I want you to accompany me."

Fear?

This word spit out from Lilith's mouth, causing Xiu Yi to be a bit astonished.

"What are you afraid of?" he asked. He knew she was too scared to be fighting today.

Lilith didn't answer, she got into Xiuyi's bed.

"Hold me tight, Huey," she said.

Lying in Xiuyi's arms, she felt very comfortable, at ease, and at ease like never before.

"Now, I'm not afraid anymore." In the dark night, that pair of bright eyes stared at Xiu Yi, her red lips fell on Xiu Yi's face, and the girl's shyness brought her body hot.

Huey understood.

Wei Wei hugged Lilith tightly, the two of them didn't say anything, just fell into a deep sleep.

—————————————

Amelia's original meaning was the concept of "controlling the enemy", which actually came from the information on the girl's name provided by Mo Nianshang's classmate. There is an introduction in it, pointing out that the Latin meaning of this name is so. Lao Mo searched for these female names for me more than a month ago, but I never had the chance to use them, and now I finally have the chance to use them.

There is also Bamboo's Mythical Children's Shoes, which once said that it would like a character, but I forgot the name you provided. Since Longkong is closed, I can't find the name you left on it. If you can see this passage, please leave a sentence in QQ or in the book review, so I can remember it.

If you need a secondary identity, you can tell me in the book review, but please provide the English name. I can't help with the Chinese name. Also, if you don’t express the characteristics of the characters, I will set them myself. I don’t guarantee that they are all good characters, and there may be scoundrels and hooligans. If you don’t like it, please make a statement first. For example, which roles are absolutely unnecessary.
