It's the height of summer, the rainy season. Less than three hours after Salin and the others left a small town, a fine rain began to fall in the sky. The rain was getting heavier, Rex and Salin were fine, but Shika and Neris were soaking wet and had to find a place to shelter from the rain.

The two of them were physically strong, and it didn't matter if they were in the rain, but the horses couldn't stand the torrential rain. After traveling for several miles, I finally saw a wild shop.

This kind of roadside wild shop is not small, and it survives entirely on the gold coins earned by the traders. Rex and Salin rushed directly into the huge courtyard of the wild shop with the invisible shield, and immediately a waiter wearing a rain cloak came out and led the horses of the four people behind.

This path is mostly filled with merchants, mercenaries, pure adventurers and mages, which is very rare. The waiter cautiously said, "Master Mage, we don't have a separate room here......

"It's okay, here it is. Rex pointed to the seat by the window. This wild shop is not small, but there is no decoration, and the tables and chairs are all rough logs.

Outside the window, there are wide eaves, columns, and courtyard walls to block the wind, and rain cannot blow in.

When the two mages came to this kind of wild shop, they naturally attracted the attention of the boss. Another waiter sent a towel, but Salin didn't ask for it, Rex directly performed a cleansing technique, and then added a fire raccoon technique, and the rain on Neris and Sika was evaporated.

The boss didn't dare to come forward to disturb, so he quietly ordered the waiter to put on a brand-new tea set, re-boil the hot water, and serve the four seemingly difficult guys first.

Saleen and the others didn't find it difficult, if in the past, Rex would have been more pompous when he went out. At least she didn't have a Juggernaut by her side now. Two of her four Black Iron Blademasters had been killed, and two had been hiding in the Tower to recuperate. Because the place she was going to was Alchemy City, she didn't even bring an assassin.

If it weren't for secrecy, she would have at least a few low-level mages with her. The matter of God's punishment of hell, except for the magician, is only known to Salin and others.

Saleen took out a tea set from the Demon Ring, made a repair water of his own, and used the simulated burning spell to make tea for Rex.

There were still more than a dozen tables of people in the store sheltering from the rain, and Salin's actions did not cause any dissatisfaction, and everyone lowered their heads, not wanting to provoke the two magicians. Outsiders are very discerning, and the temperament of these two magicians looks completely different from that of ordinary low-level mages, and no one dares to give birth to the idea of a thousand conversations.

Low-level mages may also be hired by merchants for the sake of gold coins, and even if middle-level mages are short of money, there are mercenary groups above level 4 vying for support, and it is not the turn of these merchants.

The store was quiet for a while, and Rex watched the rain from the window, and his mood became very calm.

Going to Alchemy City was not a temporary idea for her, she had this plan when she obtained the ten-story magic tower from the Divine Punishment Hell. It's just that after returning to the Myers continent, the sudden drastic change made her unacceptable, so she advanced this plan.

Kushui County has money and a shortage of people. An eighth-level magician is enough for the county, but if you want to become a real country and not depend on the power of others, you can't do it without a ninth-level magician.

If he can open the passage between him and the Divine Punishment Hell, the teacher will soon be promoted to a ninth-level magician with the help of the six-dimensional space, and at that time, the Bitter Water County will be the real country.

If you want to avenge your father, you can't rely on your personal ability alone, there are as many strong people in the Holy See as there are in Alchemy City, and no matter how strong your talent is, you can't rely on your own strength to fight against the entire Holy See.

She now somewhat understood Saleen's feelings, knowing where the enemy was, but she couldn't take revenge. She glanced at the tea that Salin had made for her and smiled, "Do you still have this?"

This tea set was left behind by her when she went to Clyde's house in Holy Rock City, and was casually put away by Saleen.

"It's expensive, you know my family was poor when I was a child. Saleen wasn't embarrassed, he actually didn't like the things Rex had used and then used them by others. The idea was not clear to him at the time, but now it can be confirmed.

Rex pursed his lips and didn't pierce Saleen. Saleen didn't have a good impression of her like those swordsmen, and she was afraid that Saleen would be embarrassed by his tender face and say it.

The waiter brought the refreshment, and Rex glanced at it, but didn't move. She has developed a habit since she was a child not to eat outside. Nellis is not afraid of this, even if the snack is highly poisonous, it is nothing to her.

As an adult, her appetite has improved a lot and she no longer tends to eat blood. Seeing that after Salin helped Xika detect it, she stretched out her hand and went directly to arrest it.

The four of them were sheltered from the rain, but Salin was not hungry, and only two people, Sika and Neris, ate it. These two people are outrageously powerful, and the amount of food is also somewhat amazing. They are the type that can eat a lot at once and then endure hunger for a long time. In this sense, the Caucasus is indeed poor, and its way of life is somewhat close to that of the demon plane.

The sound of horses' hooves was heard in the rain, and Shika shoved the snack in his mouth, wiped it, quietly wiped his hands, drew a boomerang, and put it on his lap.

The sound of the horse's hooves was extremely fast, and no amount of rain could make the knight so hurried. No matter how strong a horse is, running at the limit speed for a few minutes will make the blood boil, and if it does not die, it will be useless. The war horses on the battlefield must control their speed, otherwise the war horses will be able to run to their deaths when they are excited.

The knight ran so wildly that he would only do so when he was running for his life. Shika usually doesn't pay attention to anything, but he is unusually sensitive to combat.

"It's a ruined interest. Rex naturally heard the meaning conveyed by the sound of the horse's hooves, and was a little excited.

"Sika, don't do it. Salin whispered. He didn't want to get involved in any combat power, the empire hadn't fallen into war yet, and such a thing should be left to the local nobles.

Shika nodded, of course she didn't bother to do anything if Saleen didn't let her take care of it.

The shop was mostly filled with merchants and low-level mercenaries, and it was still quiet when it was hard to hear anything in the heavy rain. Salin looked out of the window and saw more than twenty fast horses rushing into the yard. Despite the heavy rain, the knight on the horse was still stained with blood and had not been washed away by the rain.

It seems that these people have been bitten very tightly, and the battle probably has never stopped. In the end, there were more than a dozen feather arrows stuck in their bodies, and the arrows didn't go deep, and they seemed to be stuck in the metal armor.

Qin Yin's casting technology is very advanced, and the even armor can resist bows and arrows, unless it is facing an alchemy crossbow, it is difficult to be seriously injured by feather arrows.

The twenty or so knights rushed into the courtyard and immediately turned around and closed the gate, and a dozen of them pulled the two four-wheeled carriages parked in the courtyard to the door, cut off the wheels, and blocked the courtyard gate.

The compound was a place to park, and the two carriages were originally a caravan. Seeing that the knight had destroyed the carriage with his move, a dozen mercenaries stood up at the same time and looked at their employer.

The twenty or so people who rushed into the courtyard were well-armed and wore high-grade metal armor. These mercenaries really don't want to provoke, but they collect money from their employers, and if they don't negotiate at this time, their reputation will be completely ruined.

Salin saw it in his eyes and could tell it more clearly, there were at least five swordsmen among the more than twenty knights, and the strongest of the dozen or so mercenaries in the store was only a high-level swordsman.

The two knights with arrow wounds were carried into the shop, and their companions violently pushed away the attendants who met them, put the four tables together, rushed down the wounded knights, and carefully cut off the shafts of the arrows outside the armor with daggers. Then they carefully unfastened the wounded's armor before pulling out the arrows that had been shot into the muscles.

"Hurry up, this arrow is poisonous!"

"Yes. ”

Several other knights opened their skins, found medicines, and helped the wounded knights clean their wounds and apply them. The knights in the courtyard also dismounted, and one of them, a tall and lanky knight who looked like a commander, dressed in dark blue armor and carrying a short spear, strode into the store.

"Who's the boss?" the knight commander shouted.

"It's me. ”

The boss who was behind the counter and was ready to greet Salin and the others at any time walked out, he was in his forties, his face was round, and his originally kind appearance was full of gloom at the moment. He has been running a shop here for more than ten years and has never encountered anything like this.

"I'm a swordsman from the Forest Merchant House, and I've met a group of thieves and have to borrow your place. As the knight spoke, his eyes swept over the window to Salin and the others. When he came in, he saw the magician, and he was also shocked, and his tone involuntarily softened a lot when he spoke to the boss.

Unexpectedly, a swordsman beside him shouted at Salin, "That mage, go out and help!"

Salin's demon suit is a close-fitting equipment, but what he is wearing on the outside is the white mage robe given to him by the teacher, and ordinary swordsmen can't tell his true strength, only treating him as a second-level little mage. The colorful mage robe that Rex wore was more like a good thing, and if it wasn't for a mage above level four, he wouldn't even be able to see its value.

Sika and Neris have never cultivated sword qi, and they are beautiful and should not be used with strength, and this swordsman is in a hurry, and his tone is quite tough.

The knight commander's heart sank, but he didn't immediately reprimand his men, he also wanted to see how the young mage reacted. In Qin Yin, the status of a mage is indeed very high, but because of the large number of low-level mages, a person of the sword master level like him does not have to grovel to a small mage.

Salin just shook his head, he didn't mean to help, but he didn't want to hurt the knights. The Knight Commander made it clear that it was the thieves who were chasing them.

The location of this wild shop is very close to the next town, and if you ride a horse, it will take an hour. The town belonged to a baron, and the baron was also a character, with ten hoplites in his hands and more than thirty swordsmen, who took care of the security in the neighborhood very well. If you count the auxiliaries, that town can make up two or three hundred people.

At such a close distance, the thieves will not fight a tug-of-war, and if they can't capture this courtyard, they will naturally leave.
