The Truth of Magic

Chapter 399: Reaching the New Town

In an instant, without waiting for Zhao Xu and others to explain, the archers standing on the high slope immediately threw their strings at the two of them.

The whole process was seamless and flawless.

Perhaps, when Zhao Xu saw the brass treasure chests piled up at the feet of several people, he knew that this matter could not be resolved.

Arthur, against professionals, in addition to using adventurers to check and balance adventurers, the rest of the forces also rely on cavalry phalanxes and bow and arrow phalanxes.

After ordinary civilians and mercenaries have been trained in armor, they are equipped with spears and charged by the group. It is indeed difficult for ordinary adventurer teams to resist.

But at this moment, Zhao Xu was no ordinary adventurer team.

When the first wave of arrows that had not been blessed with magic landed on Zhao Xu, most of them were blocked by his advanced mage armor ability.

Invisibly, he has filtered the first wave of attacks.

And the remaining arrows that were lucky enough to penetrate the force field armor and fell on him without dodging were also directly destroyed by the cloak on his body.

Seeing this scene directly, the two young cavalry leaders in command were shocked, and for a moment thought that the other party had cast a demon.

At the same moment, those cavalrymen with long spears also rushed towards Zhao Xu, and the sharp point of their spears stabbed straight at him.

In an instant, both Zhao Xu and Vivian activated their abilities and flew towards the sky.

"This is? Flying ability?"

The resolute young man couldn't help frowning, thinking that he might have kicked a rock.

But immediately he strengthened his belief even more.

As long as the two in front of him saw everything in the lair, he couldn't let each other go back safely.

This is also the reason why they immediately recruited cavalry to check the lair after hearing the appearance of the super giant mutant scorpion, just to recover the things that were originally placed here.

At this time, Zhao Xu flew up to the sky and looked at the people like ants below from a distance.

When mages have the mobility to fly, general terrain obstacles are no longer a problem. At the same time, enough air troops must be brought to capture mages.

Seeing this, he just snorted softly, thinking about how to target the cavalry below.

Really think that he has a good temper, so he just wants to do it without saying a word.

"President."

At this time, Vivienne's expression was serious. At this moment, the wings on her back had become white, like angel's feathers.

She completely exuded an incomparable sacred aura, no longer the previous state of combining purity and charm.

"What's wrong?"

"I suspect that the lair just now was arranged by some kind of evil ritual," Vivian said.

"When we were in the tunnel just now, there were a lot of human remains on the ground. Obviously, they were not piled up and buried there in the past, but the result of the inability of these mutant scorpions to carry them."

Zhao Xu also recalled.

The soldier named Beiguo recalled to him in this way, that there were corpses hanging from the top of the lair, and some were even directly imprisoned in cages.

But when they just broke in, they only saw the ceiling hooks and nothing else.

Thinking of this, his face also darkened.

"Did you cause the corpse in the lair?" Zhao Xu suddenly accelerated and asked the two young men as he swept across.

Immediately, the faces of the two were very gloomy, "Did you see it?"

"How much do you know?"

Immediately, the resolute young man yelled at the surrounding mutant scorpions: "Kill him!"

At the same time, the bracelet on his hand directly sparked a mysterious glow.

In an instant, the mutant scorpions that had been dormant all rushed towards Zhao Xu one by one.

Zhao Xu closed his eyes silently, knowing that there was no room for a good negotiation.

The night was instantly stained red with blood. "

dawn.

"Hurry up, hurry up." A middle-aged man in a uniform who looked like a butler, sitting on a horse, urged the cavalry behind him.

However, his voice didn't affect him in the slightest.

This one is neat and tidy, all wearing heavy silver armor, and the heavy horses riding under them are full of vigor and vitality, even if they drive thousands of miles, they are still amazing.

"Mr. Steward, don't rush away." Another sturdy and middle-aged leader persuaded.

A scar slid down from his forehead to his chin, but it didn't detract from his fierce and murderous aura at the moment, which was completely battle-tested.

And the heavy cavalry behind him all looked forward to him, and their pace and speed were consistent with him.

"Hey, how can it be? The old mistress saw that the second young master hadn't come back early in the morning. She was so worried that she urged me to come over to see what's going on."

"Otherwise, I wouldn't have privately mobilized your frontier troops to help." The middle-aged man with the appearance of a butler explained.

At this time, the sky had just dawned, and the rooster had only crowed for a round, and most of the people were still curled up in the warm blankets.

However, this frontier heavy cavalry is full of energy at this moment, and even the whole momentum has been condensed as one.

"I guess they saw that there were outstandingly beautiful women among the refugees, and they played too much." The leader of the young cavalry said contemptuously.

"Don't look down on the second young master so much. After two years of experience in the army, he has calmed down a lot."

"Calm? As he is seconded to patrol the cavalry, he is also accompanied by a pig and dog friend in normal times. In my opinion, his temperament is hard to change." The brawny leader said, "Maybe when you arrive, they are setting up camp. Happy."

Suddenly the cavalry commander pulled the reins in his hand.

"It's not right, the smell of blood is too strong."

Hearing this, the housekeeper seemed to feel the blood pressure in his mind soaring again.

He hastily drove the war horse under him to a gallop.

After bypassing a boulder in front of him, he was almost dizzy on the spot and almost fell off his horse.

On the entire hillside, the patrol cavalry dispatched yesterday were all dead, scattered on the mountain like chess pieces.

These cavalrymen lay neatly on the ground one by one, without the slightest reaction or consciousness.

There are no wounds on their bodies, and even the armor they wear all over their bodies is not even damaged.

"Who did it?" Although the patrolling cavalry was not the strongest combat force of their frontier army, seeing this scene still made his head hemorrhage incomprehensible.

Looking up at this time, this originally quiet hill, as if being deeply crushed by a huge boulder, countless armors and weapons were scattered all over the ground.

The strong man kept thinking in his mind, wondering if the border guards from the principality on the other side had crossed the border and attacked.

"Where's the young master?" Seeing that the cavalry brought by the second young master last night had turned into this appearance, the steward became even more worried about his safety.

"There." At this moment, the tone of the Zhuang Chinese was icy cold, full of bursts of deep cold.

He looked at the treetops in the distance, and there were also two young men in ragged clothes hanging on the big tree, with all the armor on their bodies shattered and falling to the ground.

Looking at the pale face of the other party, it can be seen that he has been dead for a long time, and his body is frozen stiff in this barren mountain.

The housekeeper looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief, and burst into tears.

And the commander of the strong man is also psychologically cursing at this moment, the alliance may be in chaos for a while. "

Zhenyu City is the largest alliance city in the Northern Alliance that is closest to the Principality of Xiluo.

At this special time when the other party is likely to fall into a full-scale civil strife, countless wild tourists and old citizens of the principality rushed to the deadline to come to Zhenyu City to join the Northern Alliance.

At this moment, the gate of the town, which was originally the busiest, was even more crowded.

Even the domineering adventurers on weekdays, at this sensitive point, waited in line honestly to enter the city, and did not make too aggressive moves.

"It's too big a fight."

A team of players who had just collected from the wild complained that they had been queuing at the door from the very beginning, looking down at the things in the basket from time to time, with anxious faces.

"It's strange, why did you check so carefully today." The fighters in the player's team, who had participated in the defense during this period, said in surprise.

"Heh, you just came back, didn't you. Didn't hear the news on the way?" At this time, after taking a sip of a drink, a fisherman swaggered and pointed at the team of players in front of him.

"Hey, old man, what do you know?" The player soldier who could be regarded as an insider said dissatisfied.

"Look at the bulletin board yourself." Seeing the impatient tone of the other party, the old man immediately lost the intention of bragging.

At this time, several players couldn't help but look at the huge notice board pasted on the corner of the city gate.

"So brave? Where did the dragon cross the river? He just killed the local snake."

This warrior player has good eyesight, and he was the first to see the sign clearly.

His expression changed immediately, and he immediately explained to the companion beside him.

"This is a big deal. One of the dead is the nephew of Tang De, the current leader of the alliance. This murder case is a slap in the face."

At this time, everyone was also enthusiastically chatting about the gossip about the dead man, but the evaluations of everyone around him were mostly cursing, so they were happy that someone could take care of that domineering young master.

While chatting, the focus of everyone's topic was also drawn to the mysterious killer, and many guesses emerged in an instant.

"identity?"

As time went by, the team slowly moved forward.

At this time, the patrolling soldiers stationed looked at the two men, a man and a woman, and asked in a low voice, while also quietly guarding on the other side.
