Chapter 147: The Barbarian (Part II)

Nellis ripped off the pheasant's leg. Handed to Salin, the steaming grease dripped and drifted through the cold air. The demon wolves didn't dare to step forward, and Nellis threw a few more pieces of jerky, and the demon wolves scrambled for the jerky.

Saleen opened his mouth to bite the chicken leg, when suddenly a fierce air tearing sound sounded, and a weapon burst through the air and went straight to Saleen's hand.

Salin was also a little negligent, and after he and Neris lit the bonfire, he didn't use his mental power to probe the surroundings. In this icy and snowy place, there are demon wolves patrolling around, and Saleen never thought that there would be someone in ambush.

However, he is not the low-level mage he was at the beginning, this weapon flew, and the air made a fierce explosion sound, which showed how fast it was, Salin was not in a hurry, just pointed with his hand, an ice arrow appeared out of thin air, and crashed into the incoming weapon with a bang.

Salin's magic gestures were superbly controlled, and the ice arrow hit the back end of the weapon accurately. He slammed the flying weapon to the side, and with a thud, sank into a towering tree.

"Nellis, you already found out that there are people, right?" Salin was not angry, even if he didn't make a move, with Neris's ability, he could intercept this weapon.

Nellis smiled, she felt that the ambush was not very dangerous, so she didn't alert Salin, she also wanted to see how Saleen was able now.

The flying weapon was smashed away by the ice arrow, and it sank into half of the tree, but it was a rough stone axe.

"Come out!" Salin pointed in the direction where the stone axe was flying, where there was a hollow and a pile of snow, and the stone axe thrown by the ambush man in the snow was now unable to hide.

"Ho ......"

A deep voice sounded, and a wild man crawled out of the hollow. The man was covered in rough leather and had a sturdy build, carrying a two-meter-long bow behind his back. Looking at the beard on the face of this wild man, it is estimated that he has not cleaned it up for several months, and he is a little unable to see his face.

"Barbarian, do you speak the lingua franca?" asked Saleen, changing the lingua franca.

"You're a magician?" the barbarian straightened up, not taking off the longbow behind his back. He replied in Myers.

Salin pointed to the magic robe on his body and asked, "Why did you attack me?"

Barbarian is a general term with a complex bloodline, not pure blood like the Caucasians. Far from the human cities, this group lives an extremely primitive life, and the barbarians do not trade with the merchants of any country. Only adventurers come across occasionally. Although the barbarians are not as large as the Caucasians, they are also an intelligent race and can speak many languages. Because the barbarian priests died during the Third Dynasty, they no longer formed any power and gradually declined.

The declining barbarians would not dare to attack the mage, so Salin would ask that.

"You ...... Not from the Holy See?"

"Holy See?" Salin stirred up, and the little pride that had accumulated in his heart suddenly dissipated. There are people from the Holy See here!

"I'm the number one magician of the Bitter Water Realm, barbarian, and you have to apologize for Fang Cai's actions. Salin looked at this stout fellow, and with the power of **, he exerted such a powerful power of the stone axe. If the stone axe is resisted with a magic shield, all magicians below the three poles will be killed with a single blow.

The stone axe is as hard as steel in the tree, and it takes a great deal of inertia to cut through a weapon that deviates from its flight path.

The barbarian looked at the man and the woman, and hesitated. Neither of them took his attack to heart, and he had the heart to try again, but the older generation had warned him not to provoke the magician.

The young magician was so powerful that he just moved his fingers and knocked his stone axe flying.

He didn't know that Saleen had this ability that he had practiced all year round, and that Saleen and Rex had been using low-level magic to crack each other's attacks. The moment the stone axe flew out, Saleen had already calculated the trajectory of the stone axe, and he just pushed it with an ice arrow behind the center of gravity of the stone axe, which was pure skill, otherwise Saleen would not have been able to knock a stone axe away so easily.

Although the barbarian's stone axe was not exquisite, the material surprised Salin, the head of the stone axe was polished from obsidian, and the handle of the axe was wrapped with demonic tendons, and only a six-sided hole was opened. Such an axe, which the people of the empire have not used for tens of thousands of years, can only be seen in some ruins.

A crude hand axe, due to its material, is enough to break through most low-level magic shields.

"You have to prove that you are not a member of the Holy See. The barbarian thought for a moment and said stubbornly.

Salin was happy and asked rhetorically, "How can I prove it?"

The barbarian was also in a daze, and he didn't know what Saleen had to do to prove that he wasn't from the Holy See.

"Master, what are you talking about with him, just catch it back and ask. Neris was impatient. The strength of this barbarian is very large, but there is still a gap between him and Sika. As for combat skills, the barbarians were also significantly inferior to the Caucasians.

Nellis speaks Myers, and now that she's learning more and more, it's not a problem to disguise herself as someone from any country. The barbarian listened to Neris's words, became irritable, and reached out and took off his longbow behind his back.

This is a compound bow, and although it is not as lethal as the alchemy crossbow, it is also very powerful in penetration at close range. What's more, the barbarians' arrows are also black-keyed, and it is difficult to resist any magic shield or magic spell.

"That's not going to work. Salin flipped his hands and dropped the pheasant's leg. The snow under the barbarian's feet formed a huge whirlpool that bound the barbarian's body. The longbow was out of his hand, and the barbarian screamed loudly, frightening several demon wolves to flee one after another. In this area, the barbarians are at the top of the food chain, and the demon wolves are afraid of them.

Sarin's mutated restraint technique didn't last long, and he didn't want to kill the barbarian, so he nodded at Neris, who understood, took out the rope, and tied up the immobile barbarian.

Salin came to the barbarian, and Neris pressed the barbarian to the ground, and the barbarian was immediately honest. He found that the woman in the snow-white fur was extremely powerful, and just pressing on his shoulder made his whole body numb, and he was pressed to the ground without a second of it.

"Now that you're my captive, there's no need to apologize, I have to ask you a few things. If you don't answer, I'll feed you to the wolf. Salin looked down at the barbarian, who didn't have rough skin, just too much beard. A face with a dignified appearance, it looks like a high-ranking samurai.

"First. Here's the Holy See?"

"Yes. ”

"Then tell me, who is it from the Holy See?"

"I don't know. The savage replied with great pleasure, but apparently with no brains.

"Master, why don't I ask. Neris licked her lips with the look of seeing her prey.

Salin hurriedly waved his hand and refused, and the people who were asked by Neris basically couldn't be saved by God. It's not a good thing for people from the Holy See to appear nearby, they haven't laid their roots yet, and if they are discovered by the Holy See, they may attract more magicians and Holy See knights.

The Holy See will not send people to this barren land for no reason. Because there is no more intelligent life here except the barbarians, and if you want to preach, it is better to go to Scochenia. Although the Scochenians believed only in money, there were occasional people who threw themselves into the arms of the Lord of Light.

If it weren't for the mission, could it be that the Holy See had taken a fancy to the land?

Salin had already seen the northern lands as his own, and of course it was impossible to share them with the Holy See.

"What have the people of the Holy See done?" Salin thought of a more understandable question for the barbarian to answer.

"They're taking slaves. This time the barbarian replied quickly.

"Slaves?"

"A lot of people have been taken away. The barbarian replied to Salin's words, a little frustrated, now that he was also a slave, he was caught by the magician, and the fate was similar to that of being caught by the people of the Holy See.

"How many barbarians are there?"

"There used to be a few thousand, but in the past two years there have been fewer and fewer, and now there are about a hundred. ”

The barbarians differed from the Caucasians, each of them was a warrior, young and old, men, women. A barbarian is considered an adult at the age of fourteen, and he can already fight against low-level demonic beasts. What did the Holy See do with so many barbarians?

"What's your name?"

"Conan. ”

"Conan, I'm a magician and don't need slaves, but you offended me and need to make amends, do you agree?"

Conan the Barbarian nodded, he tried to attack when he saw that Salen was dressed in a robe, like a fellow from the Holy See. But now that he has been caught, no matter who the other party is, he can only accept his fate. Barbarians don't believe in any gods, they don't have much persistence, and when they are caught, most of them will be willing to be slaves.

"Alright, Conan, let's sign a contract. Salin said, pulling out a blank scroll. This barbarian has good combat power, although it is not as good as Shika and Neris, but if you provide some high-level equipment. It's much better than those pirates. It's not bad for such a simple-minded person to be a follower.

After skillfully writing the scroll, Saleen didn't talk nonsense, and directly asked the barbarian Conan to write his name in blood on it, and the scroll turned into ashes in a cloud of fire, which proved that the magic was effective, and it was basically impossible for the barbarian to play any tricks.

"Nellis, let him go, take your weapons, and we'll go back. "Saleen doesn't want to stay here any longer. The Holy See was haunted by the neighborhood, and in case they bumped into, Salin wasn't much sure. If there were a deacon of Picasso's level, plus some ascetics, it would be a vicious fight.

Having seen the strange skills of the Black Butler, Salin did not dare to underestimate the enemy. Hurry back to the camp, there are still the three undead kings there, even if the divine envoy comes in person, he may not be able to get the three undead kings.

Originally, Salin was very scruples about the existence of the Three Kings and very much hoped that the three guys would leave quickly, but now as soon as the people from the Holy See came out, Salin immediately changed his mind. When the teacher hasn't come yet, these three kings are the capital to save their lives.
