I, the wizard, the foolish Buddha

Roland cursed inwardly. He glanced at the attire of these people. It was strange, not like people from the Middle Ages.

They didn't have polearms; they carried swords. The swords were special, rapiers.

Wide-brimmed hats, rapiers, hand cannons, and the leader even had a magic staff at his waist.

Damn it, there's a wizard, and hand cannons too.

Are they southerners? No, this is the Seaborne Kingdom!

This is definitely not a band of robbers; it's a slave-hunting团!

A slave-hunting团 specifically for hunting slaves for wizards!

The Seaborne Kingdom is under the rule of the Twilight Council. Here, ordinary people and wizards live together, and slave-hunting团s often secretly help wizards capture 'experimental materials'.

And the people here basically all understand some magic!

No, I absolutely can't fight; I can't win!

There are more than a dozen of them!

But they generally don't attack nobles. The nobles here all have some wizard blood.

The people from the slave-hunting团 didn't seem to expect to encounter anyone in this wilderness.

That kid isn't old, but his clothes are unusual, especially that bow and that sword; they look very strange. He's definitely not an ordinary noble.

But strangely, this guy's clothes don't look like he's from around here.

The leader of the slave-hunting团 frowned and gave his subordinates a look. Then, smiling, he took off his hat and gave Roland a slight bow: "%$#@%$#"

Roland's face became very ugly. He was sure that was the common tongue, but it was a western dialect!

Fortunately, Valeria's geographical location is special, belonging to the northeastern part of the East Territory.

As a northeasterner, Roland's common tongue is very 'standard'.

So, although he can't understand dialects from other places, the people of Valeria can basically understand everyone in the entire East Territory.

Roland pretended to be calm. He returned the bow and first introduced his identity.

He said that he was following the head of his family to visit the 'Seaborne Family' in order to try to secure more sea trade opportunities this year and sell the territory's magic herbs.

Today, he was with the family, following Sir Wallace of Seaborne out hunting. Seeing that it was already afternoon, the group was preparing to camp by the river, so he came ahead to scout the way.

The head of the family, Baron Hall, likes to make friends very much. Since they met unexpectedly, Roland, on behalf of the head of the family, invited them to stay and participate in the upcoming hunting banquet.

Roland's invitation was full of insincerity.

But the slave hunters didn't care about these details. They knew that this kid probably saw through their identities. He seemed to be expressing goodwill, but in reality, he was reminding them that they had many people coming and not to cause trouble.

Although there were many doubts, the slave hunters didn't want to cause any more trouble.

Better to believe it than not. Whether this kid was lying or not, he was a noble.

If he really had a relationship with the Seaborne Family, killing him would have endless consequences.

The leader smiled and politely declined Roland's kindness. He tried his best to adjust his accent, saying that they were out to capture two escaped slaves.

Now that the mission was completed, they were just passing by here to get some water, and once they got the water, they had to hurry back. So, although they really wanted to accept the invitation, they could only decline.

While the leader was chatting with Roland, the people from the slave-hunting团 couldn't wait to come to the river to get water.

These guys were already parched. Many people stood in the river, washing their faces and drinking water directly, and only started filling their containers after they were full.

They kept saying they were capturing two escaped slaves, but those two 'slaves' didn't look like slaves.

Their exposed skin didn't have slave marks—90% of slave marks were branded in easily visible locations, and most slave marks were even branded directly on the face.

Generally speaking, slave-hunting团s don't brand newly captured slaves with slave marks.

One reason is to leave themselves a way out.

The second reason is that, according to the law, only professional slave owners can brand marks—after the slave-hunting团 captures slaves, they must first find a slave guild or a professional slave owner.

Then, they need to pay a commission to have the guild train the slaves well.

Slaves must be trained before they can be bought and sold.

Slave owners are known as black wizards who don't understand magic.

Some slave masters can completely change a person mentally and cognitively.

Even a noble princess who would never submit can be made to obey by eating shit after being trained for a period of time.

Once a person is trained like this, they can never go back.

This slave-hunting团 is very professional; the leader seems to be a slave owner.

But he didn't brand the two new slaves with magic marks because slaves without marks can sign a slave contract with the guild.

Many buyers don't like slave marks on slaves.

These two captured girls... are a bit strange.

They should be sisters.

The older sister's quality is very, very high. This older sister looks like a graceful and wealthy eldest daughter of a noble family no matter how you look at her.

But judging from her attire, she seems to be a shepherdess from a village.

She seems to have excellent magical aptitude!

Just her aura aptitude alone could sell for more than 50 magic stones.

Plus her looks, if someone likes her, and if she's a virgin, how much she could sell for at a slave auction is really hard to say.

Even 50 magic stones is 5000 silver coins!

They've struck it rich this time!

The shepherdess looks like she was just captured. The slave-hunting团 is cherishing her, not daring to hurt her at all.

She's gentle and weak, her face full of tears. Her mouth is stuffed, and she's looking at Roland pleadingly.

Roland turned his head away, avoiding her gaze.

That younger sister's quality... why is that girl so strange?

She's wearing a strange puppet suit that looks like a big, fat bird. It looks so comical on her.

The surrounding slave hunters are keeping a distance from her, looking at her with strange eyes, as if they're afraid of being touched by her.

This girl doesn't look like she was captured at all; it's like she came along on her own.

Seeing Roland staring at her, the little girl revealed a happy and playful smile.

From her eyes, Roland actually read her thoughts.

—Come and save Leona, brother~~

Roland's mind boomed.

He remembered!

This is his sister!

No, no, she's the shepherdess's sister. How could he be her brother?

Roland suddenly covered his head.

This time, he really remembered.

Leona, Leona Aleye!

This is his long-lost sister.

He didn't expect to meet her here.

It seems that after she got lost, she was taken in by the shepherdess's family.

Roland's strange reaction just now was seen by the leader of the slave-hunting团, who patted Roland on the shoulder and said meaningfully in a low voice: "Our guild cooperates with the Seaborne Family. There are many people called Wallace, and there are indeed two in the Seaborne Family, but one doesn't have a title, and the other isn't local."

Roland's pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly.

The leader smiled and was about to leave with his men.

"Wait," Roland said as he rummaged through his pockets. "Your two slaves are good. How about a trade?"

The slave-hunting leader frowned. Just as he was about to say something, he saw the person opposite him taking out several thumb-sized gemstones.

They were actually mid-grade magic stones!

As a mid-level apprentice, the leader recognized this stuff.

Everyone around saw it, and a greedy look flashed in their eyes.

This young noble is indeed not an ordinary noble; he's definitely a descendant of some wizard.

But he doesn't have any companions; he's the only one around.

Lost in thought, that kid actually threw a bunch of magic stones in his hand into the sky.

What's this guy doing! How are we supposed to find them if they fall into the river!

Just then, a sword shadow suddenly flashed past. The leader was shocked and reached for his magic staff. But the two were too close, and the kid's sword-drawing speed was surprisingly fast!

Swish. Roland's ordinary sword pierced through the leader's throat.

A small section of the sword tip emerged from the spine behind the leader's neck, and the leader's body went limp.

The sword was extremely sharp. Although it was stuck on the bone, it snapped back with a crack.

After drawing his sword, Roland ran away.

Bang bang bang, several gunshots rang out, and the kid's figure嗖嗖嗖钻进了林子里. He couldn't be hit at all.

—Damn it, don't let that kid run away!

The slave hunters behind him were furious, but only three or four people chased after him.

The others were all there looking for magic stones.

The people who chased after him weren't trying to avenge the leader—that kid definitely has more money in his hands!

Roland actually didn't want to run at all. He wanted to separate these people. Throwing the magic stones was to separate them, and running was also to separate them.

Although Roland is just a sword-wielding attendant, he has a lot of fighting experience!

And for an attendant, the most important basic ability isn't swordsmanship; it's running.

Because you have to run when you encounter someone you can't beat, and you also have to run when you encounter a lot of people.

During the process of being chased, the opponents will be separated. The person running in front is definitely one of the strongest ones.

Solve him first, then keep running.

If you can't outrun them... then you can only wait to die.

If you can outrun them, but the first one is very strong... then run as hard as you can. As long as your stamina is better than theirs, you can wait for them to get tired and then fight them. You can even run far away and shoot them with a bow and arrow.

But Roland encountered a problem.

He found that he couldn't seem to outrun these people!

He can only gamble. If he can solve the one closest to him first, he still has a chance.

Roland looked back, his heart involuntarily tightening.

The distance between those people was very close, and they even maintained a formation while chasing!

So, these guys all have the physical qualities of formal knights!

They could have caught up with Roland long ago, but they saw that Roland's swordsmanship was unusual, so they deliberately toyed with him.

The newest novel is first released at 69shuba!

Roland wanted to tire them out and then fight them.

They had the same idea!

Seeing that the group was about to catch up, Roland picked up his bow and arrow, turned around and jumped, intending to draw the bow and shoot people in mid-air—the group was standing together, so he would definitely hit one!

But he found that he couldn't draw the bow!

Damn it!

Not having time to think, Roland drew his long sword and engaged in a chaotic battle with the group.

At this exchange, both sides' pupils shrank slightly.

Roland discovered that these people's strength was far greater than his own. He was clearly holding a heavy sword, and they were holding rapiers. He should have had the advantage by relying on the weight of the weapon and the leverage of his hands.

But he found it difficult to use his sword to deflect these people's swords!

The four slave hunters were also shocked. They were clearly holding rapiers, and the kid was holding a heavy sword, but his sword strikes were strangely fast.

There are many sword techniques in this world for heavy swords, but most of them are traceable.

But the slave hunters found that they couldn't see the kid's sword moves!

No, he has no method at all!

The slave hunters repeatedly wanted to surround him. As long as they surrounded him, even if the kid's swordsmanship was good, they could still play him to death.

But they found that they couldn't surround him!

Each time, it was only one person, or at most two people, fighting him!

When he strikes with his sword, his body is always moving. His upper body is like a dancing spirit snake! Constantly moving. The whole is like a butterfly, jumping around.

Jumping is the most dangerous action in a knight's battle, it's a flaw!

This kid clearly has flaws all over, but in fact, he is deliberately luring everyone to come forward!

The moment before, he was clearly jumping with his back to someone, and as soon as the person behind him approached, he would strike back with his sword!

His body just blocked his hand, and the slave hunters couldn't detect the trajectory of his sword at all. In addition, the slave hunters thought that he had a flaw, and rushed up to pursue him rashly, so they were immediately cut!

In just three or two moves, a guy with the strength of a formal knight had his calf cut off by this little attendant, and he lay on the ground rolling and screaming.

After a few more rounds, the second person had his neck touched!

The remaining two people were shocked.

Clearly just a trainee knight! Clearly just an attendant, how could he be so strong?!

His swordsmanship is extremely superb! It even reminded everyone of the 'Dawn Sword Saint' that the southerners passed down!

That guy came from the south. He had been a guest in the Sea Fortress and was a distinguished guest of the Sea Fortress Baron. He left many, many legends in this Sea Fortress Kingdom.

He was like this back then!

This Sword Saint often looked for people to fight, fighting people with the strength of a mortal. But no one was his opponent.

His sword was also like this!

But this kid's movements are even more strange!

Bang bang bang, a burst of gunfire came from afar. Roland was about to take advantage of the victory to pursue, when he felt a pain in his waist, and almost fainted to the ground.

Crap! The others have caught up!

There are people behind him, and people on the side!

There are also people chasing up behind those two!

—What Roland and these people didn't know was that on a big tree above their heads, a witch had been sitting there watching for a long time.

Her face was extremely strange, and what was even stranger was that she seemed to be muttering to herself in a low voice.

"Sister, what is brother-in-law doing?"

"The hell would I know... Also, you can call me sister, but you should call him young master."

"But I just like calling him brother-in-law. Ouch, it hurts, sister."

She was using Elvish when talking to herself.

—After Roland was shot, he didn't dare to hesitate any longer. He immediately rushed close to the two people. The slave hunters, taking care of their teammates, didn't dare to shoot randomly anymore, and drew their swords and chased after him.

Roland wanted to quickly get rid of those two people, but those two had already learned to be smart, only defending and not attacking. Roland repeatedly tried to 'gamble with swordsmanship' with them, but no matter what flaws they sold, they wouldn't be fooled.

Their physical strength was already stronger than his own. Roland didn't dare to attack rashly, and in just five or six seconds, everyone had arrived.

Seven or eight people surrounded Roland, one sword on the left, one sword on the right, and Roland ran out of energy.

With a whoosh, a big net came over. Roland was fighting, but with a feint, he split the big net open.

But immediately afterwards, five or six people rushed up and pressed Roland to the ground, holding the torn net tightly, and tied his hands.

—"Damn it, why don't you kill him?"

—"Are you stupid? This kid is definitely not an ordinary person! Look at this sword, look at this bow!"

One person said, holding Roland's bow and long sword.

That bow is an Elven bow!

There are many exquisite mythological patterns on the sword and scabbard.

—"Then he killed so many of our people, is that it?"

—"Big brother, this bow and this sword are worth a lot of money!"

Everyone hesitated for a while, their eyes revealing greed.

After doing this deal, they won't have to worry for the rest of their lives!

Looking at everyone's expressions, Roland closed his eyes and sighed in his heart: "It's over."

One person immediately drew out a dagger and walked to Roland's side with a murderous look: "Kid, don't blame us."

Saying that, Roland felt a chill on his neck.

After the dagger slashed across Roland's neck, that person was stunned for a moment, and then cut a few more times with the dagger.

But he found that no blood came out.

Looking again, this kid was clearly hit by so many swords, and his clothes were torn, but there was not a trace of blood on his body!

—"This kid is a bit strange!"

Everyone seemed to see some abnormality, but one person threw Roland's sword over.

—"Use this! Hurry!"

—"What are you still doing? There's no one here, who would know if we killed him?"

At this time, an arc of electricity suddenly flashed across the sky, directly electrocuting the person who was holding the sword to death.

Just as everyone was stunned, a clear and cold female chuckle came from the sky.

—"Hehe, who said there's no one here? I've been watching for a long time."

Suddenly, a thunderous roar rang out in the sky.

Lightning flashed, jumping continuously on everyone's bodies.

The seven or eight strong men with the strength of knights were turned to ashes in terrified screams.

Afterwards, a cold and beautiful witch slowly floated down from the sky. She looked at Roland and said, "Roland, I've been waiting for you on the top of the mountain for so long, what are you doing here?"

Roland looked at the woman with a strange expression and said, "Do we know each other?"

The woman narrowed her eyes slightly.

Roland swallowed his throat, cold sweat remaining on his face.

This woman is so beautiful.

To be honest, Roland has never seen such a beautiful woman in his life!

Well, that's a bit of an exaggeration. He had seen a lot of celebrities in his previous life, but those weren't real people!

Roland now had the feeling of seeing a super celebrity.

If she were in a Hollywood movie, she would definitely be a great beauty who would be remembered in history.

When she flew down in black just now, Roland thought she was a fairy!

Well, if there are fairies in the West.

A witch is a fairy, right?

However, this fairy is a bit too scary.

Whether it was when she had a cold face, or when she killed people just now, Roland felt a little scared in his heart.

Now, she is staring at Roland like this, and Roland's heart is beating so fast that it is about to stop.

This fairy just killed a dozen formal knights with a wave of her hand!

Roland has never seen a truly strong person in his life!

This is not a fairy, this is a female demon!

She just killed someone, and now she is looking at herself with a murderous look, looking like she wants to kill herself. This is definitely over.
