Throne Steps

Saenz probably never expected that cooked ducks could fly.He obviously moved out of "Dragon", and Li Chen was obviously hooked at the beginning, but after this guy finally got a quota by "ceding land and paying compensation", he regretted it at the end.

"Give me a reason." Saenz pointed to the luggage in the room, "Otherwise I'll pack it with you."

"Just... something?" Li Chen shamelessly pretended to be confused.Lichen himself was not sure whether Menzel's words were true or not, and it was impossible for him to tell Saenz all this and let the boss judge the truth, so he could only pretend to be stupid.

Saenz easily saw through his real intention: "Another secret?"

Li Chen tilted his head.

He deliberately put on such a cute expression, Saenz really wanted to slap him straight, glanced at him and said coldly: "So, where are you going?"

It is impossible to hide this, Li Chen replied straightforwardly: "Samil Mountain Range."

Saenz was already used to him being immobile and having a secret in Samuel, so he just raised his eyebrows and said, "In that case, you can complete another task along the way."

"what?"

"Send Wiggins to Kunta for a walk."

Half a month later, Samir Forest.

"So, now there are four factions in this team - the Black Swan, the Temple, the people of His Highness...and us?"

Li Chen glanced at the people who seemed to be walking towards him naturally: "'We'? Who is 'we' with you?"

Menzel weighed the short wand in his hand and asked, "What do you think?"

Because he was standing too close, Li Chen drew out his short staff to isolate him a little further: "Don't count me in, I was warned by everyone..."

"Stay away from him."

A long sword opened the two wands of the photo frame from bottom to top, and the female warrior Yulia inserted between the two men, and then turned her back to Li Chen and faced Menzel in a protective posture.

"Hey..." Menzel raised his hands and took two steps back.He might not be able to beat Yulia, but he still gave in and said helplessly, "I'm also a black swan, Captain Yulia, don't fight against your companions."

"I know, but I'm sorry, the order I got was to keep an eye on you." Yulia put away the long sword, but she was still standing between the two, "You have to be mentally prepared, if he resists you Behavior, I may appear at any time."

Menzel glanced at Li Chen standing behind the girl: "You also take this for granted?"

"Why not?" Li Chen raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Anyway, no matter how far away thousands of miles away, or how close you are, there are always people vying to protect and take care of me, right?"

This is very shameless, but in a sense, it is indeed the truth, especially under the premise that Menzel also claimed that he was sent by a necromancer to take care of Li Chen.

"Okay, then wait until these 'nannies' of yours are tired, and then I will come to rotate."

Menzel smiled, turned and walked away, but he didn't take a few steps before he saw the person who ordered him to be quarantined in the black swan.

The archer Fudesi with a black ponytail was returning from patrolling around.

"You're not going in?"

Wiggins stood at the intersection of the village in the forest, next to a squad called the Temple Guards, which were actually Saenz's subordinates.The difference is that the Black Swan and his party are all standing opposite these people, as if turning around and leaving in the next second.

"Don't go in now, I will go in when I come back to pick you up." Li Chen patted the ashes on his legs, "Say hello to Kunta for me."

Wiggins looked at him suspiciously.

"As for you..." Li Chen glanced at the guards around Wiggins, and focused on the people Saenz had arranged for him, "I hope he didn't arrange for you to follow me. Believe me, I will start this time." The speed of slipping will be so fast that you can't see the shadow."

One of the guards smiled: "You're joking."

"I hope so." Li Chen took two steps back, and finally glanced in the direction of the village, beckoning to the black swan beside him, "Let's go."

The three teleportation crystals throw away anyone who wants to follow them.In addition to rushing straight to the target, after a few days, the Black Swan team finally reached the western foot of the northern peak of the Samuel Mountains.

The crossing routes taken by everyone before Beifeng were quite different.Although the previous routes across the mountain range encountered ferocious beasts, they tried to avoid the precipitous areas of the Samuel Mountains and frequent occurrences of extreme weather.However, the North Peak is already on the fringe of the frigid zone, coupled with its high altitude, not only is the snow on the top of the peak not melting all year round, but it is likely to encounter severe weather from the middle of the mountain.

Even though it is theoretically the best summer climate, black swans dare not take it lightly.

In addition, Menzel's news can only reach "the west of the northern peak of the Samuel Mountains", and more is gone.That is to say, from now on, Li Chen has to make up his own mind.

After resting for a day at the still lush foot of the mountain, Li Chen touched his chin facing the mountain, and finally began to order: "Use the method of probing, and sweep up as you go up. The investigators go ahead, in case the method of probing does not work." We don't know what kind of big guy we are careful about. Today... try to finish one-third of the way."

The higher you go the harder it is, and it's wise to pick up the pace at the beginning.

Menzel stood beside him and said, "I'm afraid the place I'm looking for is not in the comfortable place below, but under the snow."

"Then check your equipment and make as much preparation as possible." Li Chen glanced at him, "I believe that no one here knows where the North Peak is. Since I have been notified in advance that I will come here, it is probably not Someone will be surprised now."

While speaking, Fudexi had already changed into a slightly different equipment from yesterday.Although it is still for the purpose of movement, everything from the jacket to the cloth boots, from the inner shirt to the cloak is much thicker than before.Although it seems a bit stuffy to wear at the foot of the mountain, but thinking about today's goal, I know that it is not an exaggeration to wear it like this.

Fu Dexi did not wait for Li Chen to give an order, and said directly: "I will participate in the investigation."

Since he returned to the elves' territory, his degree of adaptation to nature has improved suddenly, and one has to admire nature's preference for elves.Although he has no talent, Li Chen still thinks that he can easily investigate in Samir, so he didn't raise any objection.

It was Fudexi who walked up to him and suggested in a low voice and coldly: "Stay away from that magician."

Li Chen raised the corner of his mouth and shook his head with emotion: "Hey...Fodexi, listen to yourself, does this sound like a husband who is about to go away and warns his wife not to cuckold him?"

Fudexi's face became even colder.

However, Li Chen continued to lean against him: "Why, are you really jealous?"

Now Fudexi was finally "pissed off" by his success.

The two people in charge of the investigation hurriedly followed Fu Dexi, and Li Chen just looked at their backs and smiled.After they had walked for a while, the rest of them finally set off too.

Li Chen moved his fingers and said with a smile: "Everyone, let's release your 'Shadowless Bird'!"

Only a few seconds after the words fell, a "beautiful image" that only he could see appeared in Li Chen's vision.

"Shadowless Birds" composed of light and shadow from the "Method of Temptation" flew upwards against the mountains, like waves composed of magical rays of light rushing upwards.

Once these "shadowless birds" pass by other magic circles, they will emit light that other magicians can only perceive, but Li Chen can see with his own eyes.

Not long after the second day's investigation started, the "good news" had already arrived.

"right here."

The black swans who swept the target gathered under an exposed rock in a forest.In the seemingly endless mountains, such places abound.But the black swans' detection formations repeatedly scanned and confirmed here, and finally determined that this is the distinctive target.

"It's actually here..." Menzel looked at the unattractive rock and raised his eyebrows. "I thought I would at least go to the top."

Li Chen glanced at him: "It's dangerous there, covered with snow. But have you ever thought about it, if magic is used in a big way there, wouldn't everyone in a radius of several kilometers watch a 'show' for free?"

Although Menzel could continue to refute him, he just smiled: "You're right."

Fudexi stood on the top of the rock, looking down at them: "Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and do something."

"Okay." Li Chen raised his head and smiled at him, "Then you have to come down, I don't know what will happen."

Fudexi only took one step forward, and jumped down easily, and the time spent in the air was obviously longer than that of ordinary people.Yulia blew a bird whistle, making the surrounding black swans stand in a defensive formation, and a tall and burly soldier stood three steps behind Li Chen, in case something happened and Li Chen didn't have time to escape. Just copy people and leave.

Li Chen said again: "'Turn off the light'."

The surrounding brightness immediately decreased.

Li Chen looked at Menzel and pouted: "Come on, 'Time Reappears', let's see what's here."

Menzel spread his hands: "I haven't memorized this."

"Useless stuff." Li Chen sneered, but he didn't count on this guy in the first place.

With a movement of his fingertips, three intensely colored magic crystals rolled down into Li Chen's palm.He threw the short staff to Fordhi, holding the magic crystal in his left hand and pointing at the rock with his right hand.

Then the thin lips opened slightly, and the inaudible spells continued with the swipe of the fingertips.

The colors in the magic crystal surged, and then began to spin in the same direction, getting faster and faster.

This is not the first time Li Chen has chanted this spell, he has become much faster than before, but no one noticed this improvement.Menzel knew how difficult it was to complete this formation. This was the first time he saw Li Chen cast a spell, and his heart was shocked.

He has never memorized it, but he has seen spells and formations, and he knows how difficult it is - especially after he himself finally succeeded in experimenting with "Wandering in Time".

Quickly, almost silently chanting incantations, drawing formations with fingers in a small area... This technique is too similar to that person's way.

Li Chen didn't know what other people were thinking, he was concentrating on it, until the first magical light and shadow had disappeared, and his fingertips swiped the last stroke.

Gently flirt——

"'Time Reappears'!"
