Legendary Hero

What happened to the old beggar shocked everyone present, this... this is really weird!

"I'm doing it, what's going on?" Wild Wolf jumped up from the chair, his dark face turned slightly pale. Even though he was the leader of a bully before, he had never seen such a cruel and bloody scene. The key is that this man himself How crazy is it to pull out your own tongue?

Both Louisa and Harrington were startled, and they took a step back unconsciously. The other members of the mercenary regiment were not much better, with panic showing on their faces.

Among the people present, only Horn was the calmest. At first, he was startled, but he was the first to react. He immediately drew out his sword, rushed forward a few steps, and ended the beggar's life with one sword. his pain.

"Horn, this..." Louisa's eyes widened, and she needed a plausible explanation.

Horn's face was very solemn: "I heard that a powerful mage can cast a kind of silence technique, as long as the caster mentions certain words, he will remain silent uncontrollably. Maybe this beggar is also the same... ..No, the silence technique is far less tragic, it's more like an evil curse. If I'm right, the guy in the rat lane is probably not a pure frost mage anymore."

Horn didn't say the second half of the sentence, but Louisa and the others knew about the destruction of the God Cult, and they all understood what he meant, that is, Valos had completely degenerated and became a dark mage.

The spells of the dark mage are very terrifying. The three of Horn once faced a smoldering mage in person, and they all have lingering fears about dark spells.

"I'll do it, I'm going to fight this pervert again!" Wild Wolf swallowed, and when he thought of the rainy night half a month ago, he panicked.

Horn tried his best not to be affected by these panic emotions, and continued to analyze: "We caught a beggar at random, and the beggar was cursed. This may be a coincidence, but it is more likely that it shows that Valos has a strong sense of responsibility. Everyone in Rat Road has cast the curse of silence. However, what the old beggar said and his performance just now are enough to prove the existence of Valos. So I speculate that the biggest effect of this curse is not to make people shut up , but an early warning. As long as someone triggers the curse, Valos will know the first time."

"You mean, Valos may already know we're coming?" Louisa was very convinced by Horn. These days, no matter what happens to him, he always seems to have a solution, and it works.

"It's very likely."

"Then he's probably gone now, he's not stupid!" Harrington frowned.

Horn nodded and continued the previous analysis: "But don't worry. I know the exact location of the exit of the Rat Lane. There are three exits in total, one is the alley entrance, the other leads to the port. The other leads to the castle area. The castle The area is heavily guarded, and Valos must not dare to go. The entrance of the alley is a relatively open exit of the Rat Lane, and too many people know it. Since he wants to escape, he will definitely not take this road. So his only choice is to go to the port. Go , we will go to the port to stop him now! If we are lucky, we may be able to sneak attack."

This analysis is very reasonable, everyone nodded, pulled out the guy, and rushed to the pier.

On the way, the wild wolf couldn't help asking: "Horn, why are you so familiar with the rat road? Have you ever been in it?"

"No. But don't forget that I used to live in the old city, and I grew up here. I often see people coming out of the pier. As for the exit of the castle area, I'm not sure, I heard people say of."

"Why didn't I see anyone get out." He is also an aborigine in the old city.

"Because nothing you see with your eyes enters your mind, you see it, but you don't pay attention." Horn smiled.

"Well, my brain is not very good." The wolf recalled carefully, and vaguely seemed to remember the appearance he had seen once or twice, but he would either pick up women or fight, and he didn't care about it at all.

The pier is not far from the tavern in the old city, only three or four miles away. Less than ten minutes later, the group arrived at the pier.

It was already around nine o'clock in the evening, the pier no longer had the hustle and bustle of the day, and there was a bright moon in the sky. The sound of the crashing waves did not seem noisy, but made the pier even quieter.

Under the peaceful and peaceful moonlight, a figure in a black robe stood quietly on top of the randomly stacked cargo boxes.

Horn's heart sank, knowing that something was wrong. He recognized this guy, it was Valos the Frost Mage, and immediately reached out to stop everyone: "Stop, he arrived one step earlier than us."

The opponent arrived first, and the plan to block people and sneak attack was aborted before it even started.

Valos also saw someone coming. He hid his face in the shadows and smiled softly: "I knew that there are smart people among you. Now it seems that this smart person is you, young man?"

He looked at Horn.

"What do you want?" Horn's heart was shocked. This mage was too calm, and it seemed that he had a chance to win.

"I didn't want to do anything at first. I just wanted to find a place to recuperate and recover from my injuries, but you chased me so hard that I hid in hiding. Do you know how painful I was in those few days? I didn't have anything to eat, nothing Medicine, the wound on my back has been bleeding and festered, and maggots have been crawling on my back, and I will never forget the numb and itchy feeling in my life. And all of this is thanks to you."

Valos' voice was very gentle, and it sounded like an ordinary conversation, but what he said made people feel chills in the heart, and everyone present felt the strong hatred in his heart.

Horn was terrified when he heard this. They only came this time with ten people, among whom Louisa was the strongest, but no one here had the ability to fight against magic head-on. So if you want to kill this magician, there is only one stupid way, which is to exchange your life, and it may not be successful.

It's not worth it, very not worth it!

Horn whispered: "We can't fight this mage head-on. The only option now is to retreat."

These few of them have all drank the essence of life, and they have all made rapid progress recently. If the opponent is a fighter or something, even if the gap is huge, they must work hard tonight.

But the opponent is a mysterious magician, most of them don't know how to deal with the magician's magic, just the fear of the unknown in their hearts is enough to knock them down.

Everyone had no objection to Horn's words, and immediately began to back away slowly.

"What, you guys want to run away? It's a wise choice. You young man is very sensible, but... since you're here, let's all stay and enjoy my new power!"

Following these words, a hockey puck wrapped in black smoke appeared in this person's hands. It kept spinning, and dark lightning appeared from time to time, which was extremely terrifying.

"Corrosion ice ball!" Valos yelled, and the ice ball flew towards Horn at an extremely fast speed.

If it was an ordinary person, it would definitely be over this time, but Horn has dealt with mages twice, and he has some experience in dealing with them. As soon as he saw the opponent's hand move, before the spell hit, he had already rushed Arrived behind a pile of cargo boxes, and shouted at the same time: "Scatter! Scatter and retreat!"

Before he finished speaking, there was a "boom", and the ice ball hit the cargo box where he was hiding, and then the cargo box began to emit black gas, became transparent, and finally turned into a puddle of water just like ice cubes melting .

"..." If this hit someone, how could there be any life left?

Seeing that Valos was about to cast the second spell, Louisa, who was closest to Horn, reached out her hand to touch the weapon chain on her waist, and took out two flying knives. With a flick of her hand, the flying knives turned into two cold stars. Valos flew over critically.

"Childish!" An ice barrier that was also emitting black air emerged from Valos' body, easily blocking the throwing knife.

Louisa didn't expect to kill him. Taking advantage of Valos' self-protection, she jumped out immediately, grabbed Horn's arm, and led him to run quickly.

Horn has been practicing hard these days, and he still has the belt that Vianna gave him, so although his level is not as high as Louisa's, his endurance and strength are not much worse, and he has not become a drag on Louisa. fast.

There was another explosion of frost spells behind him, and there were screams, someone was hit by the spell.

Horn gritted his teeth in hatred, but there was nothing he could do. His only consolation was that both Harrington and the wild wolf escaped successfully, and these two guys ran ahead of them.

"You wait! Wait! I will take revenge, find you one by one, and torture you until you die!" The mage's terrifying roar came from behind.

How could everyone care about these things? They just ran desperately for an unknown amount of time. Anyway, they ran wildly all the way. When they came to their senses, they ran all the way from the dock area to the headquarters of the mercenary group in the commercial area!

Back here, everyone is a little more stable, but they still have lingering fears.

"Mage is really scary!"

"I don't want to deal with mages in my life."

"...Three people are missing." Louisa said the last sentence, and the courtyard immediately fell silent, and everyone was silent. They all know the ending of these three people.

After a long time, the wild wolf said, "The magician said he wanted to seek revenge from us."

"Maybe it's just harsh words." Harrington hesitated, and he couldn't figure it out.

"I don't look like it." Horn shook his head: "This mage has gone to extremes and his mind is completely distorted. I guess he will really do this."

"Then what to do?"

"We have to hide from the limelight for a while, at least until Rollin comes back." Horn was very distressed. He knew the root cause of the embarrassment tonight, that is, their team did not have a strong person who could calm the scene.

Such a team can cope with ordinary situations, but if faced with adversity, they will immediately disperse. Huo Enming knew this, but he still chose to retreat just now.

Because he knew that among all of them, no one had enough force and prestige to convince others. Louisa couldn't do it, and he couldn't do it either.

Just now, even if he wanted to rush up and fight Valos to the death, no one would probably want to die with him.

But Luo Lin seemed to be able to do this easily. Back then, Luo Lin was not very strong against the smoldering mage, but the three of them were risking their lives, even the most life-saving wild wolf. .

At this moment, Horn felt the gap between himself and Rowling. Their brains may be comparable, but he lacked the involuntary convincing courage of Rowling.

Now he can only hope that Luo Lin can come back soon.

'get it'

Suddenly there was the sound of horseshoes outside the door, the sound sounded very heavy, it was obviously different from the rough horse pulling the cart, and then there was another 'boom' sound, as if the knight on the horse had dismounted, and everyone felt the sound of the ground. Sink down slightly.

Just as he was wondering, the door of the courtyard where the mercenary regiment was stationed was pushed open, and a tall steel warrior strode in, followed by hearty laughter that seemed to be able to summon the sun.

"Hey my friends, I'm back."
