Encyclopedia of Feanor Continent

Mire Spell is a water-based magic with a relatively high threshold. It has high requirements on the skills and magic power of mages. Archmages who can learn this magic often dismiss it, because this magic seems to be useless. Temporarily turns a small piece of land into a swamp.

But as the famous saying of the genius archmage Festantis said - there is no useless magic, only useless mages, if the mud spell was really useless, it would not have been created, and it has been handed down to this day. -- "Encyclopedia of Fei Nuo Continent - Magic"

Palos looked at Avender in disbelief, thinking that the mage was just joking, and the few merchants exclaimed: "You can't do this! This is all our hard-earned money!"

"It seems that you are refusing to cooperate. It doesn't matter. We take it from the corpse." Evandel still smiled calmly and winked at Alkai.

The elf ranger drew his bow silently.

"Don't do anything! It's easy to discuss!" Those merchants finally realized that the matter was irreversible, so they had to hand over their goods and weapons. Even their clothes were stripped off, leaving only a pair of underpants on their bodies. He staggered away while supporting his injured partner.

Of course, Palos couldn't understand or agree with such an approach, but out of his trust in Evandel, he didn't directly question the mage. He didn't ask Evan, who was picking up the loot, until the merchants had completely left their sight. Del: "Why are you doing this?"

"Normal businessmen would like to hire a bunch of guards and walk on the road with the most pedestrians. What kind of businessman do you think would run to such a remote place?" Evandel picked up a package of goods wrapped in oiled paper, Opened it to see the color, gave a disgusted "tsk" before continuing, "They are smugglers, and the batch of moon sugar they sold is enough to destroy dozens of families. I don't think they have done this business much. They are novices, so they are spared and let them lose everything. Knowing the risks of smuggling, maybe they will consider changing their careers."

"So it's like this..." Palos breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a little ashamed that he had doubts about Avandell just now, "Then what should we do with these moon sugars?"

Avondel packs the goods into his storage space in packages: "As long as they are in the hands of reliable people, they can also play a positive role. There are always some dying patients who need some relief. things, but because the price of monthly sugar on the black market is too high, they cannot afford it.”

Palos was still reluctant to touch the loot obtained from the robbery, but Phils and Arkai didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it. They rummaged through the trophies for things they could use, and Phils put on one of them. The man's cloak, pulling up the hood to block part of the light made him feel much more comfortable, Alkai took a knife and stuck it in his boots, and left the other useless things where they were.

In the evening, they left the forest area and came to the weedy plain. This area may have been man-made farmland in the past, but now it is barren, leaving only a large flat wasteland.

Shortly after walking onto the plain, Alkai's sensitive ears moved: "They are here."

"Who?" Phils asked a little confused.

As soon as he finished speaking, he also heard the sound of horseshoes, and a group of Templar knights in bright armor rode their horses and rushed towards them.

"It's really lingering...very good." Evandel sneered, chanted a spell that others couldn't understand, and cast a spell, but nothing seemed to happen.

"They used the holy words of exorcism!" Palos said nervously.

Phils was also a little panicked. He turned his head and looked at the unmoved Avondel: "Hey, why don't we run quickly? There are at least twenty Templars on the opposite side, and it is impossible to beat them." Bar?"

"Can you run a horse?" Evandel didn't show any nervousness at all, just asked with a smile while crossing his arms. Alkai also looked very calm, took off the bow on his back and waited for the Templars to approach .

Seeing that they were about to be trampled to death by their horses with 20 meters to go, Palos and Phils nervously clenched their weapons tightly, intending to fight them to the death, but the Templars who ran ahead All of a sudden, a person fell on his back, and when the people behind realized that something was wrong, they couldn't stop the horse's forward momentum, and they all bumped into it, rolled and fell into a ball.

It turned out that before they approached, the land in front of the mage had been turned into a swamp by his "swamp technique", because the surface was still covered with weeds, and the running Templars couldn't see anything at all. When you step on it, you get stuck in the mud.

The Templars were all stunned and could only try their best to climb out of the swamp. Although they had been warned that the mage was very dangerous, the Templars, who claimed to be the nemesis of the mage, didn't take it very seriously. He thought that the exorcism oracle plus a charge would be able to finish off the enemy, but now he can only struggle in the mud, and Alkai has already drawn his bow on these living targets, and the arrows shot from his hard bow are enough to penetrate the armor of the Templars .

Palos quickly pressed Alkai's arm to prevent him from shooting the defenseless Templars: "Don't!"

The elf ranger looked at the mage silently, and Palos also looked at Evandel imploringly: "Please..."

"Stop it first, I have something to ask them." Evandel squatted down on the edge of the mud, and the Templar Captain, who seemed to be in his 40s, struggled to draw his sword out, but his entire lower body was stuck in the mud and made him He couldn't move an inch, and moving with all his strength only made him jump forward a few centimeters, and he couldn't touch the mage at all.

When he fell off the horse, he gnawed his mouth full of mud, and finally spit out the mud in his mouth, his face was covered with mud, but his eyes were staring at Palos with fire: "Palos, you... Ahem...shameful traitor!"

Evandel lowered his face and said, "If it weren't for this 'shameful traitor' pleading for you, you would be dead now. Is ingratitude one of the fine traditions of the Knights Templar?"

"You...you shut up!" The templar captain was obviously not an eloquent person, and he had no power to fight back against the mage's ridicule. To deal with me, this is not the style of that treacherous villain Rafazi, you are not with him?"

The leader of the Templar Knights gritted his teeth and said: "Every Templar Knight has the obligation to hunt down wild mages! You don't care if we are in the same group!"

"No wonder, he knows how difficult I am to deal with. He didn't come by himself, but pushed you to die. Does he have grudge against you?"

"Stop sowing discord here, we won't be fooled!"

"You should feel lucky. Rafaqi wants you to die, but I don't want him to do so." Evandel stood up and said, "You can struggle here slowly, we have to take a step first, goodbye."

He said goodbye politely and turned to continue his journey.

Palos hesitated, but said to Evandel, "I'm sorry."

"What's wrong?" Evandel looked at him with a smile and asked.

Palos said guiltily: "I once said that even if I meet my former colleagues, I will not show mercy, but I broke my promise, I...know them."

"Oh, it's nothing." Evandel said, "I didn't intend to kill all the Templars I encountered-except for those mage-stalkers."

Firth said: "I don't mind letting them go, but will this make them more confident? I don't think it's okay to chase and kill you casually. Anyway, there will be no consequences if you fail."

"I won't let this situation last for too long." Evandel said with confidence, "If you dare to mess with me, how can you not pay the price? It's just a matter of time."

Phils asked with great interest, "Can you tell us about your plan?"

Evandel thought for a moment, then smiled slightly: "No."

The mage still kept his secrets, and only told his companions that the next destination was Casgar City, which is a trading city, and business travelers from south to north all pass through here, and there are all kinds of people on the street, whether they are orcs or dwarves Still barbarians, this city never rejects anyone, and even the guards who guard the city just stand there symbolically, not bothering to check everyone passing by.

The Knights Templar can't be too blatant to replace the guards in other people's fields to enforce the law. They only saw the wanted notice posted by the church at the intersection, and it is obviously that the news is relatively behind. Before cross-dressing.

Evandel looked at the portrait on the arrest warrant, and "tsk" in dissatisfaction: "It's impossible for anyone to recognize me because I was painted so ugly."

Phils also complained: "Is this the place to complain? Wouldn't it be better not to recognize it? Although the painting is really ugly."

Palos hurriedly looked left and right to see if anyone noticed this side, and was about to remind the mage to keep a low profile, but Evandel put his shoulders and said, "Go, let's buy you some decent equipment first."

In this kind of relatively large town, there are sophisticated weapons and equipment for sale. Phils bought himself an exquisite hand crossbow, which cost him all his money, but the mage generously let him pay in advance for the next one. monthly salary.

Alkai was picking arrows one by one, and some of his arrows were consumed. It is best to buy as many arrows as possible while replenishing.

Evandel chose a few pieces of armor for Palos to try on. In fact, from his point of view, he still had some dislike for the things here, and finally chose a set of breastplate, greaves and arm armor for Palos, and a hard kite Shield and a long sword similar to the standard weapon of the Templars.

As an experienced warrior, Palos also has a good understanding of weapons and armor. He suggested: "I feel that this set of armor has too many decorations, and the defense is not as good as the black set."

"You're right, my dear, but how could I really let you use your body to block the knife, as long as it looks good." Evandel said with a smile.

Palos was ashamed and embarrassed, and looked around at the boss and the guys in the store with some unease. He couldn't believe that Evandel said these ambiguous words so brazenly in front of outsiders, and the boss didn't feel anything wrong at all: " That's right, wearing this armor can better bring out this young man's tall stature and stately appearance, with such followers walking by his side, others will look up to you."

"Very good, I will buy this one." Evandel decided.

Palos took out his money bag and prepared to pay the bill. When he learned how much this set of gold-plated and silver-plated equipment cost, even Palos, who had no concept of money, was shocked: "So expensive?"

Evandel has already taken out a dozen gold coins from his bag to the boss: "With me here, you never need to worry about money. I am willing to spend any amount for you."

The boss said to Palos enviously: "You are so lucky to have such a handsome and generous lover, young man."

On the way back to the hotel, Palos, who felt that his three views had been refreshed again, seemed to be sleepwalking.
