In the middle of the night, in the moonlight, which had faded and ceased to shine, two men could be seen walking along the mountain path, one of them was a tall man with a woman on his back.

These three people are Sean and Cecilia, who broke through, and Shefanio, who is still unconscious.

After Sean and Cecilia broke out, they both completely crushed the horse's body to the maximum limit, in order to distance themselves from the Gray Wolf Blade soldiers as much as possible in the first time. Because for the mountain army, things like reconnaissance, search, pursuit, etc., happen to be their forte-maybe not particularly proficient, but at least within the scope of their expertise, so Sean and Cecilia didn't even think about hiding or deceiving each other's search, because it was only a matter of time before they were chased by the Gray Wolf Blade.

The only thing they need to do is buy more time.

So after squeezing the horse's body, Sean and Cecilia let the two horses go away and moved on. It's just that considering Cecilia's magician physique, Sean's speed naturally can't be too fast.

After a long night of trekking, Cecilia had basically reached her limit by this time, so Sean also had to stop and rest. If Shefanio hadn't been unconscious, then with the strength of this priest with a knife, Sean would still be able to walk for another hour or two with Cecilia on his back. With the strength of the golden powerhouse, one or two hours of full speed travel, then the distance is not small, unless the enemy also invests the strong to pursue and entangle.

But you don't have to think about it to know this. Since even the entire legion of the Gray Wolf Blade has been dispatched, the investment of the strong will definitely not be less.

Since the first case of a strong man falling in a siege by an army thousands of years ago, it has been in the history of the last thousand years. After such a long period of tactical refinement and improvement, it has now been basically unanimously recognized on the Miracle Continent: the dual combination of strong and elite troops is the most effective combination to kill the opponent's lone strong. As for the confrontation between the two armies, in addition to competing with the level of the two armies and the strength of the strong, there is another important factor that is luck, unless the difference in strength between the two sides is large enough to crush it, then this iron law can be ignored.

After stopping to rest, Sean didn't light a fire. Just take the food and water out of the storage space, and eat it with Cecilia. Fortunately, Sean had prepared a lot of various supplies before, otherwise he would have to go out to find food if he was forced into this situation now. That's the bigger headache.

Although the territory of the Finlistine family is only a marquisate, in fact, including two adjacent viscounties and one count, it can be regarded as the territory of the Finlistine family. And this time, according to Hela's return plan, the places they still need to pass through include a viscount that has actually been manipulated by the Finlistin family. Of course, at the beginning, Sean and others didn't pay attention to it. Because this viscounty, which has been shrouded by the Finlistin family all the year round, has long been developed into a rich territory, there is no need to worry about public security at all, at least smart people and normal people will definitely not choose this place as a point of attack.

But now, the Finlistin family not only dispatched the Gray Wolf Blade, a legion that nominally no longer belonged to their family, but even brought the Karakuri crossbow, and Sean naturally did not dare to conclude that it would be safe to enter that Viscountdom.

After a simple meal, Cecilia began to close her eyes and recuperate, and she couldn't help but think back to the past.

Years ago. When she and Sean were still working as mercenaries in the northern kingdom of Serion, they were often exhausted from a small task. Even the food is very simple, not to mention the living environment. She still remembers how hard Sean worked to support the two of them when she didn't know anything at first, and it was from that time that she gradually learned how to survive as a mercenary.

Although since coming to the Ryan Kingdom, the standard of living is indeed much better than before, and there is no need to worry about survival anymore, but for some reason, Cecilia has been more and more nostalgic for the past recently, perhaps more nostalgic for the days when she and Sean had adventures together.

Thinking of this, Cecilia didn't feel how painful the following days would be, and naturally she didn't have any fear. On the contrary, at this moment, she was a little more excited and looking forward to it, just like the days when she and Sean were adventuring in the Serian Kingdom in the past.

"What do you think?" Seeing the smile on Cecilia's lips as she lay on the ground resting, Sean asked softly.

"Nothing." Cecilia shook her head, then turned her back to Sean.

After a moment of silence, Cecilia spoke again to break the silence: "When the Void Realm has developed steadily, let's walk around together." ”

"Walking around?" Sean was stunned for a moment, then smiled again, "Where do you want to go?" ”

"I don't know." Cecilia shook her head, "That's it...... Let's take a walk around the whole continent. Perhaps, we can go back to the Kingdom of Serion, and I want to see what has become of the place where we used to live. ”

"That's a good idea." Sean thought for a moment, then nodded, "It just so happens that we borrowed something that didn't belong to us when we left the Serian Kingdom, and now we can return it." …… Hopefully, by then, Serian and Portoroa haven't gone to war yet. ”

"Yes." Cecilia's head moved, and she looked like she was nodding her head.

Then there was another silence.

However, judging from Cecilia's gradually steady and soothing breathing, she probably fell asleep.

Sean sighed softly, and then began to close his eyes as well. It's just that unlike Cecilia, who fell asleep because of exhaustion, Sean still kept some attention on his surroundings to prevent a strong person from suddenly chasing after him, and of course, he also checked his own situation.

Now that he has officially ascended to the seventh order, that is, the realm of the lower gold, but the overall improvement is not as strong as Sean imagined.

[Demon Seal Warrior (7th Order Profession): You have successfully comprehended the essence of the "Curse Seal", and you have also learned the cause of the civil strife in the Exorcist Association back then. But you are always looking for the ancient power and will. He did not fall or corrupt his soul in any way. Your strength is not just in the power you have, you know very well from today onwards. Your responsibilities will be different. 】

[Inaugural Reward - Magic Seal Strengthening: Unwavering belief and long-term persistence have finally paid off today. You've finally discovered the nature of the sigil, and you've strengthened the power of your sigil to transform it into a sigil. (The power of the sealed spell has been strengthened); Ancient Strength: Ancient strength and will have made you more powerful and fearless, and your strength has been greatly sublimated. (+10 for Strength, +15 for Strength Limit.) Stamina +8, Stamina Limit +13, Dexterity +11. Agility Limit +16, Intelligence +7, Intelligence Limit +12, Will +9. Willpower Limit +14)]

[Punishment for inauguration-none]

Although he didn't quite know why there was no inauguration penalty for this career advancement. And this is not a bad thing, but Sean instinctively felt that the two curse seals he had sealed at the beginning had deviated at this time.

Or rather, it's a little out of his pace.

【Magic Seal. Silver Scale (Level 3): Defense effect, when activated, it can be greatly covered with a layer of demon skin on the body, can be immune to physical damage caused by any weapon with a sharp and piercing value of 30 or less, and is ineffective against strike damage, immune to fire and dark magic damage. Exempts 30% of water, ice, wind, and earth damage, and inflicts an additional triple damage to light damage. Duration: 20 seconds. Cooldown time 1 hour. Note: You can now turn this ability on or off freely, and the cooldown will only be entered after a duration of 20 seconds or if you automatically give up activating the ability. 】

Magic Seal. The enhancement of the Silver Scale has not changed much, at least not in essence, but has increased the penalty of doubling the damage of the light system. It's just that this ability can be useful in some cases, such as when facing the vampire before, but more often than not, it's starting to get a little bit of a trick, as it's the opposite of the Demon Seal Warrior's more offensive style of combat.

Of course, if you want to say something more frivolous, then [Demon Seal. Blood Charm] is even worse.

Basically, there is no change in this ability.,It's just an extra blood-sucking effect.,It's just that this blood-sucking ability belongs to the "Selling Cute" series after being tested by Sean.。 Because in this real world, if you are hit, it is the result of direct death, so there is no concept of "blood bar" at all, so naturally, the so-called blood sucking is actually just to accelerate the recovery of injuries, and it does not have any effect on the recovery of the energy consumed by oneself in battle.

Naturally, Sean would not like such an ability.

But if you want to talk about the harvest, there are actually still some of them.

At the very least, Sean has completely mastered the sword skill of [Soul Suppression]. And at this point, Sean finally understood how terrifying this skill was.

[Soul Suppression (Fifty Swords): Draw the sword at a very fast speed, causing the space to concuss, thus forming a space collapse! Each time you cast a skill, you need to consume at least 50% of your own Dou Qi, dealing tons of damage to all targets within 30 meters in a straight line and within 3 meters in a frontal diameter, and this damage will gradually decrease with distance. Collateral Effect "Space-Time Static": This attribute is judged to have priority, and all targets within the attack range will be agile and have less than 100 will, and will not be able to dodge; Collateral Effect "Annihilation": Once the "Time and Space Static" judgment takes effect, the target within 10 meters will die on the spot; Targets within 10 to 20 meters will be hit hard; Targets within a range of 20 to 30 meters will receive medium-range damage. Swordsmanship/Eighth Order/Special/Sword. Note: Because this skill is beyond your current level, you will need to charge three seconds before each skill. 】

However, for the current Sean, the soul is also a "big blue consumer", because he can only use it twice in his heyday, and then he will face the dilemma of not being able to use skills. However, if combined with the skill of "Fighting Qi Explosion", he can perform three soul suppressions, but that's all, so even if Sean has now entered the realm of lower gold, his fighting style still hasn't changed: when facing a higher-level powerhouse, he is still in a predicament where he can't fight for a long time.

Perhaps, only by becoming a high-ranking gold powerhouse can we get out of the current situation.

Sean sighed softly, still a little helpless on his face. Now that he can get the hole cards in his hand, there are no other hole cards at all except for the soul suppression, and there is one more Shefanio in a coma, Sean's actual combat power is actually not high, and he can't help but miss Gollum a little if he is still awake.

But at this moment, Sean's eyes suddenly opened, and he jumped up from the ground with a turnover, and the Black King was already held by Sean with one hand, and the cold killing intent suddenly rose.

However, just as Sean was putting on such a fighting posture, Monica's voice came from the darkness: "I'm not here to fight you. (To be continued......)
