The mage arrives

The mage who kidnapped the female druid and seized the key of the blue wind clearly aimed at the ruins in Mount Vesula.It seems that Gordon is not the only one who knows the purpose of the four elemental keys.

After telling the Elders Aikan about his deduction, Gordon and Sigrid left Qingmai Town.

In name, the female druid Ivania is Gordon's vassal.Since subjects pay taxes and offer loyalty, as a lord, he is obliged to provide them with security.This was the basis of the feudal contract.

So Gordon promised Pensa and others to rescue their matriarch.Fortunately, the kidnapper's goal was obviously Weisula Mountain, which was the same as Gordon's goal, so the two sides might meet in the mountain.So Gordon doesn't need to be in a dilemma between saving Vinia and his main purpose.

"Lord Earl, do we need to speed up?" Sigrid asked just after leaving Qingmai Town, "It's only an hour or so since Miss Venia was kidnapped. Miss Venia's identity is very conspicuous, that mage It will inevitably be covered up, and it is impossible to walk the right path blatantly. Moreover, he has two prisoners with him, so the speed of action will also be reduced. Maybe we hurry up and catch up." "Sigrid, your analysis is indeed correct." Gordon patted the female knight on the shoulder.But just such a movement, Gordon's palm even patted the female knight's body through the thick metal shoulder armor, which made her body tighten slightly, as if she was extremely nervous.

Gordon didn't pay attention to this small detail, and continued to analyze: "But you just think with common sense. A knight like you relies on horses to move, and needs to consider factors such as roads and speed. But mages are different. The one who hijacked Vinia And the mage who snatched the key of the blue wind, acted quickly and secretly, obviously a guy with careful thinking and sufficient preparation. So at this time, the other party may have used the teleportation array set up in advance to escape. Although I have a way to transmit according to The remaining energy of the array, to analyze the destination of the other party's teleportation. But that is very time-consuming. In addition to the time to find the teleportation array, I am afraid that after all this is done. It will be ten and a half months later."

"In other words, our best choice is to go to Vesula Mountain as soon as possible and wait for the mage to come to the door by himself?" The female knight concluded Gordon's reasoning.

"That's right." Gordon nodded. …………

When Gordon and Sigrid were riding towards their destination, in a forest at the foot of Mount Vesula, the unique blue light of the magic teleportation array flashed, and three figures walked out of the light.

Although the leading mage didn't wear his unique sky blue narrow-sleeved robe that symbolized his status, he did have a fair face with gold-rimmed glasses.It didn't change.

He is the young mage Lufa from the Austrian Federation, who once had a relationship with Gordon.

It seems that in addition to the idea of ​​the magic spring in Gordon's territory, this mage also has a strong interest in the legacy of the Netherdulan magic empire in Mount Vesula.

Behind him are the female druid Ivania who disappeared in Qingmai Town this morning, and Alva.

The condition of the female druid is not bad, her robes are neat, and there are no injuries.Apart from staring at Rufa with resentful eyes all the time, there was nothing unusual about it.

And Alva behind her was miserable.

The young man was wearing only a loincloth to hide his shame.There are bloody wounds all over the body, and there is a rusted metal collar around the neck, and there are shackles on the hands and feet-this is completely a slave dress.

But a mage is accompanied by several slaves.It is also a very normal thing.They can not only help mages deal with all kinds of chores, but also are materials for casting spells or fodder for mages to raise monsters.Unless someone can recognize the identity of the female druid at a glance, no one will doubt a mage with a female companion and slaves even if he walks on the imperial road.

"Miss Venia, just look at me with those burning eyes, I enjoy it very much." Rufa's eyes narrowed into a slit, and there were bursts of needle-like coldness behind the lens.He looked at the female druid jokingly, and said again. "But you'd better not do other irrational actions. Otherwise, if I just say a password, the plug on your 'brother''s neck that blocks the arteries will have to be pulled out by me..."

Vinya knew that Rufa was referring to the collar around Alva's neck.That's enchanted with a fan stance spell.As soon as the password is activated, Alva will be separated from his body.Blood gushes from the transverse section of the carotid artery—like champagne uncorked.

"Rufa, why did you do this? You helped us Aikan people so much before, and Alva also regarded you as a big brother. Aren't we friends?"

The mage lightly supported the frame, and said with a sneer: "Dear Vinia. We were indeed friends before. But friendship can also be valued. In the face of the legacy of the great magic empire, our friendship is not worth mentioning. Last night I I have tried you so many times, but it is a pity that you still refuse to give me the key of the blue wind. I have no choice but to do it myself."

Viniya did not expect that the mage who was smiling at the welcome banquet yesterday turned his face so quickly.

"The power of the key of the blue wind can only be used by me. No matter what you want to do, you will never succeed!"

Lufa shook his head "tsk tsk": "If it wasn't for that key that only you can use, do you think you would still be alive to this day? You used Yangyan to kill my favorite pet, I am very angry."

Seeing the other party's eyes full of murderous intent, the female druid felt a chill in her heart: "Aren't you afraid of destroying the relationship between the Aikan people and the Austrian Federation?"

"It's a pity, Miss Venia. The Austrian Law Federation and your Aikan tribe are completely different in magnitude. The benefits brought about by our good relationship are only for the mages on Jiuyao Island to enjoy It’s just fresh and rich food. Again, the weight of the Aikan people is too light, making the chain of friendship between us too fragile. In the face of greater interests, it is simply insignificant.”

"Then what about the Earl of Haven? Now I am the Lord Earl's vassal, your behavior today..."

Before Vinya could finish speaking, Rufa interrupted the other party with a sneer: "Huh, you mean that smart mage? If it weren't for the adventurer preferential decree issued by him, maybe I wouldn't treat Weisula well." I have paid too much attention to the affairs of Mt. Vesula. His little tricks cannot be concealed from real smart people. As a mage who has been active in the Haiwen Peninsula all year round, I am also very interested in the legend of Mt. Vesula. Thanks to Gordon The information leaked in the decree inspired me. Then, I found many interesting things in the large library of the Arcane Federation. For mages, knowledge and information are the real source of power. The high Earl Den Freeman thought he had the most information about Mount Vesula, but he didn't know that I had the knowledge reserves of the entire Austrian Law Federation as a backing. He could only be regarded as an ignorant fool in front of me. "

Rufa looked at the elemental key surrounded by the wind of green energy in his hand, showing a smug smile.
