Chapter 268: A Traveler on the Same Road

Just when the little bubble gum was "killing", Rhodes and the others had already arrived at their destination with grace. And their arrival naturally attracted the attention of the Tour de France Tower and his party, who had no worries. But even in battle, they are enough to attract the attention of others. And it's no wonder. The sea of trees outside is not a place where people can come and go, it is as strong as the Tour de France Tower, which sends a dozen people to go deep, and four or five kittens like Rhodes are leisurely here as if they are not eye-catching.

What are these guys coming from?

On the other side, the black-robed mage who led the hunting group was also secretly frightened in his heart, especially the little girl who was running around among the mercenaries at the moment, and the level of violence was simply outrageous. He asked himself how cruel and tyrannical he had been leading these mercenaries for so many years, but compared to the girl in front of him, those so-called cruel and tyrannical acts were just like the self-amusement of the little ghosts in the second stage of secondary school!

"Bang!!"

Watch as little bubblegum grabs one of the mercenaries by the hair, and then smashes his head on the stone next to him like a meteor hammer. The black-robed mage couldn't help but gasp. This was not only because the girl was able to make such a brutal and terrible combat method with a fanatical smile, but also because at the same time, there were two mercenaries who attacked her from the side and rear, but the sharp blade could not penetrate the girl's petite body at all. Instead, I saw only a flash of white light, and the two long swords immediately shook and broke, and this was like a signal to remind the girl, only to see that the next moment she turned around, and then the dazzling white pillar of light rose into the sky, and the two poor unlucky ghosts were naturally completely finished.

Worst......... This is definitely not an enemy that you can deal with.

Also as a spellcaster. Of course, the black-robed mage could see how strong the soul light of the inner ring core on the little bubble gum was, and if he fought with such a person, he would only be dead. If he could, the black-robed mage really wanted to leave like this, but he couldn't do it at all. Because the black-robed mage was keenly aware that since the little girl appeared, she had actually been locking on to herself. He was sure that if he dared to make any move, then he would be immediately killed by the other party with a thunderous force. Although she is still far away from herself, there is no doubt that this girl can definitely do it.

Chance, is there any chance that she can divert her attention, just for a moment.........

Now the black-robed mage no longer thinks about how he could be so unlucky to encounter such a terrible enemy, and he doesn't even plan to ask for the loot behind. No matter how much money you have, you have to have a life to spend it, and if you don't have a life, then no matter how much money you have, it's useless. That's why he didn't stop his subordinates from going up to their deaths. I hope that as long as the girl's attention can be relaxed, even if it is only a little, then she can take the opportunity to completely escape with the props that have been prepared for a long time!!

But unfortunately, this opportunity has never come, and the manpower on his side is getting smaller and smaller. Even those mercenaries didn't dare to continue to rush forward at this time. Damn, that's it......... However, the black-robed mage had no choice at all at the moment, and he could only watch the last mercenary scream and disappear in the pillar of light, sweating profusely. The girl shook her hand in satisfaction, then turned her head. It stared at them like a beast. Now there were only three or five guards left by the black-robed mage's side, and at this moment, like their masters, they were also looking at everything that was happening in front of them with wide eyes and horror, holding weapons in their hands but unable to do anything. I can only wait quietly and desperately for death to come.

That's when it happened. Rhodes and the others also arrived at the battlefield, and seeing their figures, little bubblegum suddenly diverted her attention, she turned her head and waved vigorously in the direction of Rhodes.

"Captain. You're too late, I've already swept away this place! ”

It's now!!

At the moment when Little Bubblegum looked away, the black-robed mage keenly sensed that her attention had indeed disappeared from her, which made the black-robed mage overjoyed. He didn't waste any time, he raised his right hand like this, and crushed a piece of white crystal with great force, and then, his body was suddenly filled with elemental power, eliminating the tangible form, and flying towards the sky quickly.........

It was supposed to be like this, but unfortunately, things don't always go the way people want them to.

At the same time as the black-robed mage made a move, the canary raised her head and looked in the direction of the black-robed mage, and then, she stretched out her right hand and held it in the void.

“————!!”

With the canary's movements, the body of the black-robed mage who was supposed to be turned into an element was suddenly forcibly reshaped and turned into a tangible entity again. If that's all there is to it, then it's not a threat. But the problem was that those summoned wind elements also poured into his body at this moment. Originally, according to the original design of the black-robed mage, after he transformed his form, he would use the power of these wind elements to run as far as he could. But I didn't expect that someone would be able to force his spell to be reversed and released! When he came back to his senses, the surging power of the wind elemental had already entered his body, and it was absolutely impossible for the body that had re-transformed into a tangible thing to resist the power of this powerful wind elemental.

"Poof......

In just an instant, the black-robed mage's body exploded like a ball filled with air, and blood mixed with pieces of flesh scattered in all directions. And the next moment, those wind elements that erupted from the corpse suddenly turned into sharp blades, roaring and sweeping around, and those mercenaries who were originally standing around the black-robed mage did not react at all, and were completely torn apart and turned into corpses.

“…………………”

Looking at the scene in front of them, everyone in the Tour de France Tower held their breath. They weren't rookie mercenaries who didn't know anything about magic, but they saw everything they had just seen. Especially when the black-robed mage escaped, they also thought about giving a warning, but what happened next was completely beyond their imagination. Of course, they knew what the black-robed mage of the Dao Dao had done, and it was a method that many mages would use to transform their body shape and transfer it with the power of the wind element. But then, that's not the way any mage would use!

actually reshaped the body that had been transformed. You can even master the elemental power released by others?! And it's not the elemental power summoned by ordinary mages, but the power of legendary mages! If it is to prevent this mage from escaping, it is not impossible to use spatial isolation or enchantment. But to forcibly master the elemental power of others and use it so skillfully for their own purposes, don't say that they can't do this kind of thing, even their mentors can't do it, I'm afraid that only those old mages at the top of the ring law in the tower can do this!

"It's over?"

But Rhodes apparently didn't care about the members of the Tour de France. He first glanced at the battlefield in front of him, and then asked. Hearing Rod's inquiry, Little Bubblegum nodded, and then she waved her hand to remove the barrier that hung around everyone in the Tour de France, and then stretched out very satisfied, as if playing a very interesting game.

"Well, it's over, Captain. Yes......... Sure enough, it's more refreshing to play like this, I'm going crazy when I'm idle along the way, and now it's finally much more comfortable! ”

Stretching his waist, the little bubble gum made a very comfortable gesture of "one book is satisfied". Hearing her words, Zagared, who was scared and originally planned to come over and thank everyone, almost fell. He looked at the girl in front of him with some hesitation, and he really couldn't figure out whether he should be involved with this group of people. But in the end, he still stubbornly walked towards Rhodes and the others, and it can be seen that this group of people is very strong. Very strong, not averagely strong. Although they seem to be only six people in total. And there were only two of them before. But Zajared would not be so stupid as to think that only these two of them are capable. But in other words, even if only these two girls have super strength, it will be enough to destroy them completely. So after thinking about it for a while, in the end, Zajared gritted his teeth and straightened out his uniform. Then he came to the front of several people and respectfully performed a mage ritual to them.

"That......... Thank you very much for your assistance, if you weren't there, we might not be able to see the sun tomorrow. On behalf of my colleagues and fellow students, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all of you. The Tour de France Tower will not forget your kindness. If you guys have any ........."

"No thanks, we didn't actually do anything."

In the face of Zagared's thanks, Rhodes didn't care much about it. Anyway, the difference in strength between the two sides is too big, it's like a person walking on the road and seeing an ant being caught by a spider, he chooses to step on the spider to kill and rescue the ant, but it's just a casual thing, that is, he won't even take it to heart. However, he did have some curiosity.

"However, judging by the way you look, you should still be apprentices of the Tour de France, what are you doing here?"

The class division of the Tour de France Tower is not the same as the general division of power. In the Tour de France Tower, there is no "graduation", and a mage who is officially recognized, no matter how high his ability, is called an "apprentice", and only those who are truly capable of "graduating" will be turned into a regular teacher. Therefore, in the Tour de France, most of the companions are called "colleagues" or "friends", and in fact, the members of the Tour de France Tower also like this title. Because it will make them feel "different", besides, the "apprentices" in the Tour de France Tower are naturally mostly young people.

Young......... Naturally, it is a little more energetic (Form 2).

Combined with the distress signals from above, as well as their uniform and unique name, Rhodes could confirm that they were indeed members of the Tour de France. And judging by the current situation, they should not have "graduated" yet. However, this also made Rhodes curious, although this is not the core area of the Outer Tree Sea, but it is not far away. What are these furry kids doing here? The group of apprentices in the Tour de France Tower are really "not listening to things outside the window, and only reading the books of the sages", nesting at the gate of the tower all day long, it is really more delicate than Miss Qianjin, plus the "safety first" principle of the Tour de France Tower, no one wants to go out to cause trouble, they are all staying in the tower to learn magic, and they will come to such a dangerous place as the outer tree sea in groups, but it doesn't seem like the Tour de France Tower should do at all.

"This............ It's like this..............."

Hearing Rod's inquiry, Zagared's face was a little embarrassed. But he thought twice and told the truth obediently. After all, judging from the way the other party asked just now, they were very familiar with the Tour of Law Tower, and the young lady before was so clever in casting spells, maybe she also had something to do with the Tour Law Tower. Of course, that must be guessing in the direction of good intentions. Otherwise, these people would not not not only help themselves, but also heal their wounds. Thinking of this, although Zagared was a little hesitant, he quickly replied.

“…………… This time, we went to the Sea of Outer Trees to pass the apprenticeship trial........."

"Apprentice trials?"

Hearing this, Rod couldn't help frowning, he instinctively felt that there was something wrong with this. Do you know that the motto of the Tour de France Tower is "Safety First" rather than "Death First", and send a group of imps who have not yet been taught (regardless of their own ability) to go deep into the core area of the Outer Tree Sea to conduct an apprenticeship trial? Isn't this really the rhythm of death?

"Only you?"

"According to the plan, a total of six teams will go to the core area of Jukai, and our mission is to gather there and then enter the deepest labyrinth to explore..............."

Zagared's voice grew softer. Because he could clearly see that the faces of Rhodes and the Canary in front of him changed slightly after hearing what he said, but it was not so heavy or worried, but more like a somewhat funny and weird smile.

"You're going to the deepest labyrinth too?"

“……… Yes........."

Hearing Rod's rhetorical question, Zagared's heart jumped, not to mention anything else, this "also" alone already explains the problem. Although they study in the tower all day, they are not really stupid people with stupid heads, hear this. Zagaled couldn't help but feel a little bitter in his heart. Of course, he knew where the sea of trees outside the road was, and where the deepest labyrinth was. Perhaps the apprentices of the Tour de France tower spend all day studying. But the books are not devoid of information and knowledge about this aspect. Truth be told, some of them were skeptical that the Tower would set the apprentice trial in such a dangerous place this year. However, they are only apprentices after all, and they are not qualified to question the decisions of the Tour de France. And now, listening to the adult in front of them, they are also going to the deepest labyrinth?

That's a ............... Zagaled didn't even know what to say. He was still vaguely worried in his heart, because until now. They also don't know what to do when they reach the deepest labyrinth. Even as the captain, the news he got was that he first had to cross the outer sea of trees and reach the deepest labyrinth. Then I was able to receive the next trial goal, but now, I didn't expect that these "good Samaritans" who inadvertently saved themselves would also go to the deepest labyrinth............ Now that's the problem.

If there is no conflict between the goals of the two sides, it is better to say. What if the goals of both sides conflict? The other party can send one person out at will, and he can kill all the people on his side. If that time really comes, what will you do on your side? Although it is said that the apprentice trial is supervised by a mentor, Zagared does not believe that his mentor can block the attacks of these people, not to mention that the hand of the girl who manipulated the wind element before alone can not be done by few people in the Tour de France Tower.

"This ...... This lord, it seems that you are also planning to go to the deepest labyrinth? ”

Zagared didn't have much doubt about Rod's goal. He had read a lot of books on the Tour de France, and most of the people who came to the Sea of Trees outside the Outer Sea, except for those who hunted elves, were adventurers who went to the deepest labyrinth, and this was the place where many adventurers came to prove their strength, and Zagared was also well aware of this.

It's just that looking at their dress, it feels more like a nobleman, and an ordinary nobleman would come here to carry out such a dangerous adventure?

"That's right, we're going to the deepest labyrinth, too."

Hearing Zagared's inquiry, Rhodes nodded, he seemed to understand the meaning of Zagared's words, and couldn't help but squint his eyes and glance at the man in front of him. Feeling Rod's gaze, Zagared's heart couldn't help shrinking slightly, the pressure brought to him by the man in front of him who was simply more beautiful than a woman was greater than he imagined, just by glancing at him, Zagared felt that his heart had begun to beat completely uncontrollably, as if he was facing a behemoth, so that he had no way to resist. However, he gritted his teeth and continued.

"So......... Can you come with us? Since everyone is heading to the deepest labyrinth......... To tell you the truth, although we were treated by that young lady, many of us have lost our strength in the previous battle, and I am afraid that we will not be able to act in a short time, if you are willing......... Of course, the Tour de France Tower will never forget your kindness. I can assure you of that here..............."

The pit stumbled and said the words of request, but in fact, Zagared was also at a loss. Although he invited Rhodes and the others to go to the deepest labyrinth with him, he did expect them to help him get out of some trouble. But the most important thing is to be able to have a good relationship with this group of unidentified but powerful people during this time. In this way, if there is any deviation between the two sides in terms of goals, they can still hope that through this little friendship, the other party will let the other party go——— just hope that things don't really turn out like this.

However, Rod didn't seem to care, he exchanged a look with the canary, and then readily agreed.

"No problem, since we are all on the way, then there is no problem to walk together."

It's not just Zagared who wants to find out the purpose of this group of people, but Rhodes also wants to know what the people of the Tour de France want to do when they come all the way to the deepest labyrinth.

PS: I don't know what's going on at noon today, after eating, I suddenly wanted to vomit in my chest, but I vomited so dark that I even coughed up blood...... It's so uncomfortable that you die...... I hope I get better sleep, or I'm going to go to the hospital tomorrow for a check-up......... (To be continued......)
