The mage arrives

Regarding Gordon's admonition, Bivis's thin cheeks burst out with a smile, and he nodded in agreement.

"Okay..." Gordon didn't know if the other party listened or not, and said, "What did you find?"

Bivis approached and whispered: "Captain, when everyone was asleep in the middle of the night, I saw Burdisso get up quietly, ran to an open space in the corner of the cave, and then set up a sound-suppressing enchantment to start Practice spells."

"Really? What kind of spell is Burdisso practicing? It must be a lot of noise, otherwise he wouldn't have set up a sound barrier to avoid waking up others."

"It's a fire-type spell. It's very powerful, surpassing the fireball spell, but I can't recognize the specific type." Bivis said shyly.A wretched middle-aged man in his 50s and [-]s suddenly showed a shy expression, which was really unbearable to look at.

"I see, you go back, be careful yourself, don't be found out." Gordon nodded, reminded him again, and then told Bivis to leave.

He remembered that Burdisso had only recently been promoted to a three-ring mage, how could he suddenly be able to use four-ring spells?It seemed that his guess was correct, this guy must have fallen behind and been captured during the breakout, and then defected to the enemy.One of the rewards promised by the devil is to give Burdisso great power.

It took almost no effort to upgrade from the third ring to the fourth ring, jumping into the category of middle-level mages. Burdisso must be very proud now, and he is also planning how to look good for himself.

However, are devil's things so easy to get?

Burdisso is a hidden danger, but not yet a big threat.Gordon felt that all he had to do was devote some attention to it.What he really cared about in his heart was what Archmage Cyprus had told him.

There is a demon chasing after him, but there is also a dragon blocking the way in front?If so.I am afraid that the road to the ancient times will not be easy this time.

Not long after Bivis left, the entire Crystal Cave began to gradually become noisy. This fleeing team, composed of a mixed army and civilians, was ready to go after a night of rest.

Just like what Gordon said, the sacred barrier at the entrance of the cave weakened again this morning, and the change was so obvious that even the mages of Earl Thompson's faction also felt it.

Although the old earl was at odds with Ms. Bishop, he was not stupid enough.After learning the news, they stopped being arrogant like yesterday, and just sent an entourage to tell Ms. Bishop that they were ready and ready to go.

Due to the rush during the breakout.The luggage was uneven, so only a small number of nobles enjoyed a hot breakfast in the morning.Most people just use the dry food they carry with them.It's just a hasty meal.

After breakfast, Ms. Bishop called Gordon over and asked him to take the lead in organizing an elite investigative team.After all, no one knows what is waiting for them in front of the ancient road, and they must be cautious in their actions.

Gordon thought about it for a moment.Jean Xiona, Faliya, Priest Viscount Angelo, Viscount Lambertoni Grant's younger brother Lambertoni Bonny - a barbarian warrior with a red cropped head, and Bobby who is familiar with the history of the Ancient Road The three-ring mage of Levich joined the scouting team.In addition, Ms. Bishop arranged for him four knights of extraordinary strength.

As for Dorne, on the one hand, this guy has no interest in finding the way ahead.I prefer to stay in the big team and get tired of being with my little lover.On the other hand, besides Gordon, he is the highest-ranked mage in the entire team.Around Ms. Bishop, there must be someone who can be useful.

Among the nobles who participated in the autumn hunt this year, there were no heavyweight mages, so young people like Gordon and Donne could only be allowed to shoulder the heavy responsibility.

After making an agreement with Ms. Bishop, a message would be sent back every hour, and then everyone in Gordon set off on horseback.

Under the guidance of the purple crystal light that can be seen everywhere, the scouting team moved forward very fast.The road in the cave is flat and spacious, much easier to walk than the forested paths in the Cold Mist Mountains.

After running for an hour on the straight road, and then passed two big bends, everyone heard the sound of gurgling water.To the left, an underground river gushes out of the cave and flows forward.

Gordon looked forward. His keen senses and the bonus brought by Peng Yu's angel eyes allowed him to see a little white light at the end of his vision, one step ahead of others.That's the hole.He was overjoyed, knowing that this long trip to the cave would soon end.

"Advance along this small river, and we will be able to get out of the cave soon." After he finished speaking, he gestured for everyone to move on.

After driving the horse forward for more than ten minutes, everyone's eyes lit up, and they suddenly understood.

Saying goodbye to the slightly dull air in the cave, Xiona took a deep breath, and suddenly felt a fresh and natural breath filling her chest.

In front of you is a canyon full of vitality and lush greenery. Two towering cliffs extend to the far end, separating the cold air that ravages the entire Lengwu Mountain Range.The canyon outside the cave entrance is like a paradise, it is another world.

Everyone showed relaxed and joyful expressions.With the beautiful scenery, it is inevitable to make people feel happy. Even the barbarians, who are known for their rudeness and incomprehension in the eyes of the world, also praised this lush land in a unique way.

"It's so damn good!" Bernie, a barbarian warrior with a giant steel ax on his back, couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

Sir Polevich, who is quite scholarly, adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses and gave everyone a short history lesson: "This narrow and long valley was named 'Siwanan Canyon' by our ancestors. In the Khosian language, it means the land of streams and green forests. It will take us about two days to walk through this canyon.”

Walking along the pebble beach by the stream for a few minutes, Gordon, who was blessed with "endure elemental damage" on his mage robe, didn't feel anything, but the others had already experienced the discomfort caused by the temperature change.The temperature in this canyon was about ten degrees higher than that of the Cold Mist Mountains in winter. Several knights, including Faliya, who had put thick fur inside their armor to keep warm, had already begun to feel a sense of heat.

Sheona's leather armor was also permanently "endurable to elemental damage" by Gordon, so she basically didn't need to consider temperature changes, while the barbarian warrior Bernie relied on his physical strength, whether it was ice and snow or hot summer, he could only Wearing a single shirt, he proudly looked at the heavy armored knights who were twisting their bodies because of the heat, and said, "I have said long ago that armor is only for girls. It is not only heavy and cumbersome, but also in many cases , it’s all trouble.”

Several knights looked at each other with wry smiles. They knew that the three brothers of Lantonilan were as famous for their childish temper as for the battle axes in their hands. The heart-to-heart fight ended.

However, the knights and men planned to give up arguing with the barbarians, and Miss Falia was not so good-tempered.She glared at the barbarian and said, "Bernie, if you have any opinion on women or armor, you can tell me directly. My Glacial Nova is happy to discuss this issue with you."

"Uh..." Looking directly into the azure blue eyes of the grand duke's daughter, even though he was no longer afraid of frost and snow, the barbarian nobleman still felt a chill down his spine.

"Okay, after the battle, let's take a rest. The knights can take off the thermal pads in the armor. This may make your restless mood better." Gordon said.His words immediately interrupted the dispute between Faria and Bernie, and everyone focused on the word "battle".

"Is there an enemy? Why didn't I see it?" Sir Polivich, a standard academic mage with almost no combat experience, immediately looked around nervously, "Where? Where?"

"Don't worry, the wolves still have one minute to come out of the forest." Gordon got off his horse.Compared with horseback, the solid ground is obviously a more reliable platform for casting spells.He is not a knight and does not need to fight on horseback.

Due to the lack of occupations such as rangers or rogues who are good at scouting, in this team, Gordon took on the task of scouting.Anyway, he has superhuman senses, coupled with various spells, he is fully capable.

Soon, what Gordon said was a pack of wolves burst out of the forest across the creek and charged at the humans.

For Gordon, who had rich combat experience, these Frostwolves with a challenge level of up to three were not threatening at all except that they were a little large in number. In addition, their own strength was not bad, so there was no need to worry at all.

The battle ended quickly, a total of 38 frost wolves were killed.Throughout the whole process, Gordon only released a magic missile when the largest alpha wolf attempted to sneak attack Xiona.The weapons of a few fighters are enough to deal with all enemies.

The others didn't pay much attention to the battle. Several men even discussed whether to try wolf meat at night, but Gordon still noticed something unusual.

"Huh? Why is my left arm feeling cold? Pastor, come and show me a healing spell!" Bernie said carelessly.

This barbarian's fighting style is extremely tough, and he belongs to the type that goes forward without defense.The only protective measure on his body is a shoulder guard inlaid with iron spikes.The Frostwolf's teeth left a freshly pierced skin wound on his arm.For the rough-skinned barbarian, this shouldn't have any effect, but the barbarian actually wants the priest to heal him?

"Mr. Bernie, my magic is not for you to treat this kind of minor bite." Priest Angelo refused.

"let me see."

Gordon walked to Bernie's side, put his hand on the wound on his arm, and immediately felt a cold breath at his fingertips.

"Negative energy," he said. (To be continued..)
