Chapter 1515 Schaller and his convoy
The convoy is not a caravan, and the car is not loaded with goods but food. The team of people hired by the Schaller family were not going to sell goods, but to dig for treasures in the Blood Rock. The food in the car was left on the road to eat. The news that the sand pirates discovered the ancient tomb in the Blood Rock Battle has long been known. It spread outside the desert.
On the way to the motorcade, Bing Zhixie heard Ruola talk about something about her. Although she was a little distant from Bing Zhixie, she must still be familiar with her. Bing Zhixie asked with concern, she There was no hiding it either.
After Ruola left Hindmoor, she sold her house and had a sum of money to start her own journey. At the beginning of the trip, she earned some living expenses by working part-time jobs, but this was not enough to make ends meet, and it was not her specialty. Later, she followed her work in the royal capital and went to the princes and wealthy families to help them identify some cultural relics and obtain rewards. Because she specifically stated her resume when recommending herself, and because of her relationship with the Royal Tutor, she was lucky enough to gain trust.
Later on, Ruola traveled around and around. On the one hand, she continued to make a living in this way, and on the other hand, she also actively explored the secret of the double-sided gold coin. When it comes to cultural relics and treasures, experience is the most important thing. After these two years of accumulation, coupled with her experience in reading a large number of cultural relics at Engeta College and the careful teachings of her teachers, as well as her experience working in Tiantang Building, she is now well-known in the collection world. He is a young treasure connoisseur and cultural relic connoisseur, and he is even more fortunate to become a cultural relic and art agent. A few days ago, she was warmly invited by Schaller Tyson of the Schaller family to go to the local antique auction to identify the treasures for auction. She only stayed for two days. Later, the incident about the Blood Rock Tomb came out, and she Tyson, who is obsessed with antiques, immediately became interested. On the one hand, he tried his best to retain Ruola, and on the other hand, he actively prepared for this trip. Therefore, Ruola stayed at Schaller's house, and now she came to this desert again.
Tyson was well prepared for this excavation trip. Not only was Ruola a professional, but he was also a semi-expert himself. In addition, he also invited two other connoisseurs who were very knowledgeable about desert culture to accompany him. Make up for the shortcomings of Ruola's youth. In terms of security, Tyson is a local wealthy family, and generally those who can afford cultural relics and art are not ordinary people. Not only is he a high-level fire magician, but he also hired a mercenary group to protect him. Speaking of which, Bing Zhixie and Alice also knew this mercenary group. It was the White Skeleton mercenary group that they separated not long ago. Toast Bear, Alligator, Flat Nose, and Silver Swordsman were among them.
Toast Bear and Tyson have known each other for a long time. They have had many business contacts. A considerable part of the income of the White Skeleton Mercenary Group comes from the Schaller family. They are old friends who cooperate. . After Tusi Xiong and Bing Zhixie separated near Windmill Town, they received Tyson's escort invitation and happily agreed.
Tyson is a middle-aged man in his fifties, of average height, with slightly dark skin that looks a little bit exposed to the weather. Although he is a little older, he is in good health and energetic. Although he belongs to a wealthy family, he does not look like the kind of person who has been pampered for many years. He was wearing a cyan magic robe instead of brocade clothes.
You must know that although there are many styles of magic robes, not just any kind can be worn by ordinary people. Some styles can only be worn by people who meet a certain status. Otherwise, it is a common law in mainland China. law. For example, the style of the cyan magic robe he is wearing now is only allowed to be worn by members of the Magic Guild. If it is worn by ordinary people or magicians who are not members of the Magic Guild, it is illegal in any country on the mainland. Although he was only slightly punished, it was never a good thing.
Teams formed by people with Tyson's status are generally not willing to have people join halfway. This is for safety reasons. However, when he saw that Alice, Bing Zhixie and Tusi Xiong knew each other, and Tuo Si Xiong did not object, he trusted Tu Si Xiong, so he agreed to his companion's request.
Toast Bear seemed to be very familiar with Alice because of his relationship with Alice. He introduced Alice to several important people in the team, and then laughed and said: "I'm still thinking. When did Pan accept such a good apprentice? I wonder if I should also accept an apprentice to play with. "Play, I didn't expect to meet you again so soon."
Alice is a person who knows her well. Seeing that this fat man did not treat her as a stranger when they met for the second time. She started chatting with him freely and told him about Pyle Pan's previous situation and her experience of learning skills from Pan. On the other hand, Bing Zhixie seemed a little isolated, and no one cared about her. However, he was originally a person who was out of tune with the crowd, so this situation made him more comfortable.
......
Paniced and frightened, Princess Hefemi ran in panic in the bushes in the mountains.
“Stop, stop. If you don’t stop, I will shoot!”
Chasing behind her were several Adelia soldiers. These people were supposed to be her subjects, but now they had become the gods of death chasing her.
A soldier raised his crossbow and shot an arrow from a distance. The arrow passed by Hefemi's ear and was nailed to a tree trunk in front of her. She was so frightened that she fell. But he got up again immediately.
“Damn it, missed~!” The soldier who launched the crossbow cursed, put down the crossbow and hurriedly chased after him, shouting: “We must not let Princess Hefimi run away, this is us The best opportunity to get promoted and make a fortune.”
None of the soldiers involved in the hunt thought this way. No matter whether they were dead or alive, as long as they could carry Princess Hefemi’s head back, they would be rewarded with a large sum of money. Indispensable. They are not only being hunted by human soldiers, but also by centaurs and summoned monsters to guard them. A strong Cerpalos chased at the front, and the three fierce heads took turns spitting out burning flames. The layers of fire waves were gradually approaching Hephimi.
Hefemi was extremely tired. She ran from the outside of the mountain to the mountain, and the soldiers were still chasing her with red eyes. But she didn't have any chance to fall down and rest now. Even if it was just for a few seconds, she might die.
“This little girl can run quite well.” Although there were obstacles in the bushes, the centaur soldier was still not slow. He chased closer, and the staff in his hand raised the magic light, and Hephime’s head was A small cloud of lightning immediately gathered above.
Boom!
A thunderbolt struck, and Hefemi dodged it, followed by a second, third, and fourth... She jumped left and right to avoid several lightning strikes, but her physical strength was not enough after all. His thighs went limp and he didn't jump up again. He was hit by the fifth and sixth lightning strikes.
“Ah!”
Amid the screams of pain, the chasing soldiers all showed joy on their faces, and they jumped towards the place where Hefemi fell. At this moment, a group of Chishan muntjacs jumped out. It turned out that the centaur soldiers' lightning strike alerted the Chishan muntjacs living nearby. These timid animals immediately jumped all over the mountain, hindering the soldiers' pursuit.
The soldiers who knew how to fly immediately jumped into the air, and when Hefemi saw the Chishan muntjacs startled, she quickly endured the pain and jumped up, hugged one of them, and climbed onto its back. These small Chishan muntjacs are best at jumping and running in the mountains and forests. They jump left and right and are very agile. The muntjacs hugged by Hefimi were even frightened and ran around desperately. The soldiers who knew how to fly in the air chased for a few steps in the air, but fell down again due to lack of physical strength and magic power. This large group of muntjacs ran all over the mountains and fields, and the bushes blocked their sight, which made their eyes dazzled.
“Over there~!” He finally found Hephimi’s figure again, and the soldiers hurriedly chased after them. As soon as those monsters and the ferocious Cerpalos caught up, all the muntjacs went deeper into the mountains. escape. Seeing all the Chishan muntjacs swarming into the dense forest in front of them, the centaur soldiers suddenly stopped: "Wait, we can't chase anymore."
"What's wrong?"
The centaur soldier looked at the black forest ahead and said: "This forest is inaccessible."
The soldiers seemed to have remembered something, and all of them looked frightened. This black forest is a dangerous existence on the border of Adria. Very few people who have entered it have come out alive. All kinds of horrifying rumors have been rampant nearby, and of course they know about it.
"But the princess ran in, shouldn't we chase her?" Some people were still very unwilling to let the fat fly out of their mouths, but they didn't dare to chase her in.
The centaur soldier could only stand outside the forest and gritted his teeth, turned around and said: "Forget it, with Princess Hephime's little ability, she will be dead if she runs into the black forest. Money is important, but life is also important. , we’d better go back and put this Report the matter to the superiors. "
Everyone was disappointed. They accidentally discovered the exiled Princess Hefemi during their inspection. They thought it was a great opportunity to get promoted and make a fortune, but they didn't expect the opportunity to slip through their fingers. Gone.
