Setting foot on the road to Auland City, Garamandis didn't make things difficult for Nian Bing anymore. The human and dragon walked slowly on the road like friends. Garamandis didn't have the concept of time at all. Having lived for tens of thousands of years, he knew how to enjoy life very well. Nian Bing originally wanted to use magic to hasten the journey, but was stopped by Garamandis, saying that it would be better to experience the beauty of the human world by walking.
It was equivalent to the end of the month. The weather of March brought with it a trace of warmth. After a few months of rest, the Ottoman Empire, which had suffered great losses due to the war, was in the midst of recovering. At least, that was the case on the surface.
"Nian Bing, how much longer until we reach Auland City?" Garamandis looked at the buds on the trees on both sides of the road as he asked.
Nian Bing smiled and said, "I just looked at the map. At our current speed, we will reach it in three days at most."
Garamandis said excitedly, "That means that I will have good food to eat soon?"
Nian Bing smiled bitterly and said, "Great Garamandis, haven't you eaten enough along the way? Not to mention the cities, even if we passed by a small village, you would have to eat for a few days before continuing on the road. " Along the way, he was more and more convinced that Garamandis was helping him improve his physical abilities so that he could cook better. As long as they reached a place where they could buy food, Garamandis would have to stop and let Nian Bing cook for him for a few days. Although it was very useful for training his culinary skills, Nian Bing was now more and more worried. At this speed, she wouldn't be able to make it to the Huarong Empire in time to participate in the New Magician Competition after delivering the letter to Auland City. However, what made him feel gratified was that ever since he left the Fire Dragon Cave, his body had improved tremendously. Just the improvement of his magic had made him wild with joy. The cultivation of magic power required time, but he had already gained a lot of experience in the control of magic, as well as the use of mimicry magic. It wasn't a bad thing that Garamandis was delicious. Every time Nian Bing encountered a difficult problem, as long as she cooked for him wholeheartedly, she would definitely be able to get some information from him. For Nian Bing. Right now, Garamandis was a moving magic treasure trove.
Garamandis snorted and said, "Don't forget how big my real body is. Of course I have to eat more to maintain my good figure. Why? Is there anything you're not satisfied with? "
Nian Bing said grumpily, "There's nothing I'm not satisfied with. It's just that you, who have so many treasures, have been eating this insignificant human's money. My savings are already gone, so shouldn't you take out some money to continue our meal?! "
"Yeah, stinky brat, do you still want to eat the great Garamandis? I don't have any money, I didn't even bring a single gold coin. Didn't you say that you can sell magic scrolls for money? When we reach Auland City, you can just change some. "
Nian Bing said with a bitter face, "That can only be exchanged with magic scrolls! I have already used up all my scrolls in the Sky Shaking Mountain Range, and all my money has been eaten by you. I can't even buy a blank scroll, how do you want me to sell them? "
Garamandis smiled like a child. Revealing his white teeth, he said, "That's your problem, what does it have to do with me? Anyway, when we don't get to eat good food, you just have to be careful. I don't mind doing the training I gave you in the Sky Shaking Mountain Range a few more times. Anyway, I have plenty of time to play with you. "
"You …" Looking at Garamandis's roguish appearance. Nian Bing really couldn't do anything to him, meeting such a big shot, she could only endure.
Just as they were walking, the sound of wheels grinding against the ground came from the front, the sound going from soft to clear. Nian Bing raised her head and saw that a caravan was coming towards her and Garamandis.
At the front of the caravan was the most popular part of the continent – mercenaries. More than ten mercenaries were guarding the carriage at the front. The carriage looked very ordinary from the outside, but there were actually more than a hundred mercenaries guarding it. From the looks of these mercenaries, their abilities shouldn't be bad, they were at least high level warriors. It seemed that this caravan was very profitable!
"Hey, Nian Bing, this is your human caravan, right?" Garamandis saw what Nian Bing noticed.
Nian Bing nodded, "It should be, otherwise there wouldn't be so many mercenaries."
Garamandis laughed mischievously, "The problem is solved, aren't you poor? This caravan has so many people, there must be a lot of valuable things. If you rob them, won't we have enough food expenses? "
Nian Bing opened her eyes wide, looking at Garamandis who was speaking in a relaxed tone, her voice raised a bit, "You want me to rob them?"
Garamandis said as if it was a matter of course, "Of course, if you don't have money, just rob them. In any case, money is spent in their hands, and it's also spent in our hands. Go quickly, as long as you rob enough money, I will tell you about the question you asked yesterday regarding the light element. How about it? This condition isn't bad, right? "
Nian Bing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "But, great Garamandis, I am a chef, or a magician. You want me to be a robber in broad daylight, I'm afraid it's not appropriate, right? If I encounter the soldiers of the Ottoman Empire, even if I jump into the Azure River, I won't be able to clear my name. We are now within the borders of the Ottoman Empire, and will become street rats in the future, how can we eat good food? "
Garamandis snorted, "Why are you talking so much nonsense? Don't talk to me about benefits and benefits, it has nothing to do with me. I only know that money can be used to buy food. Go quickly, otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite. Don't forget, I can take your little life at any time. "
Although Nian Bing understood that Garamandis couldn't bear to kill her, she understood even more clearly that if she didn't follow Garamandis' wishes, her future days wouldn't be good. Sighing helplessly, taking advantage of the fact that the caravan hadn't noticed the two of them, she hurriedly took out the mage's outfit from her spatial ring and put it on herself. Wearing the mask, she finally felt a bit better.
Looking at Nian Bing's outfit, Garamandis laughed heartily, "Why do you look like a clown? Go quickly, I will wait for you here. Look, what are you looking at? Don't tell me you think that the noble and great Garamandis would do such a shameless act of robbery? "
Speechless. You can't be shameless, so you want me to be shameless, what kind of logic is this? Oh, right, there is no logic to speak to him. Too lazy to say anything more, Nian Bing cast a blizzard spell on herself. Now that she didn't have the protection of a magic scroll, she naturally had to be more careful in all aspects.
The caravan and Nian Bing were getting closer and closer. Nian Bing walked in the middle of the road, blocking the caravan's path. Garamandis had already gone to the side of the road to rest and watch the show.
The mercenaries naturally noticed this uninvited guest. They all took out their weapons. But after all, Nian Bing was only one person, so they weren't too nervous. Three of the mercenaries at the front suddenly sped up and rushed towards Nian Bing. In the blink of an eye, they were already in front of her.
One of the mercenaries was tall and looked to be in his forties. Wearing the mercenary's standard leather armor, he looked very imposing. His bald head shone under the sunlight, his appearance was rough, and one could tell at a glance that he was a forthright person. "Friend, we want to go through this road, please make way." He very politely said to Nianbing. After all, mercenaries were on a mission, no one wanted to cause trouble.
Nian Bing sighed in her heart. She deliberately made her voice hoarse, "Stop talking nonsense, just give me some money and I will let you pass. I am here to rob. "This was the first time she did this kind of thing, so she could only say this kind of opening words.
The three mercenaries opposite her were veterans in the mercenary industry. As soon as they heard Nian Bing's words, they knew that they had encountered a rookie robber. The two mercenaries next to them were about to attack, but they were stopped by the mercenary who spoke before. The previous mercenary held up his shiny bald head and casually said to Nianbing, "This brother, at home you rely on your parents, but when you go out you rely on your friends. Our Blade King Mercenary Group has made friends with you. Everyone calls me Wanderer, and people give me the nickname Gilded Knife. Take this money. "As he said that, he took out a dirty money bag from his chest and threw it to Nian Bing.
Nian Bing took the money bag and opened it. She was surprised to find that there were more than ten gold coins in the bag. She couldn't help but have some doubts in her heart. Was it so easy to be a robber now? She could get money just by saying a few words. This was too easy. Although she thought so in her heart, she felt that it was also good. This way she didn't have to force herself to be a robber. When she was about to open the way, she heard Garamandis's voice, "Too little, it is not enough for me to eat my fill. Their caravan is so big, this little money is not enough. Do as you see fit. " Although she didn't know where the voice came from, Nian Bing was sure that only she could hear it.
Nian Bing cursed Garamandis's eighteen generations of ancestors in her heart, but she couldn't resist. She could only brace herself and say, "Although brother Wanderer is generous, but this money is not enough to buy the way."
Wanderer frowned slightly. The reason why he chose to use money to buy the way was mainly because of Nian Bing's looming aura. Although he looked rough, his mind was very meticulous. He didn't want to make more enemies. At this time, seeing that the other side had accepted his money, but still didn't have the intention to let the caravan go, Wanderer couldn't help but secretly scold the rookie in front of him for not being sensible. He said indifferently, "So, you don't intend to let us go?"
At this point, Nian Bing didn't have the idea of being lucky. She said coldly, "One thousand gold coins, and I will let you go. Think about it carefully. " As he said that, he didn't recite the incantation. His right hand pressed to the side of the road. A red and blue airflow floated out. The difference between the colors of the airflow was not very obvious. Just when the three mercenaries were stunned, a loud bang sounded. The red and blue light instantly condensed into a ball of light on the side of the road. There was a violent explosion on the ground. Three big trees were uprooted, and a large pit with a diameter of nearly ten feet appeared. Although it was a little shallow, the power was still good. Some of the fallen branches on the ground were turned into charcoal, while others were sealed with frost.
Nian Bing was slightly proud. The leap of the ice and fire source made it so that he didn't have to separately cast different spells from his hands and then collide with each other to display the power of the ice and fire source. He directly mixed the ice and fire source magic and output it without chanting the incantation. Coupled with the effect of the camouflage spell, he now didn't even need to chant the second step of the ice and fire source magic. Now, Nian Bing was a little suspicious. It seemed that she didn't seem like a magician, but more like a warrior.
Something unexpected happened. Nian Bing's powerful attack didn't make the three knights change their expressions, especially the gold-plated sword in the middle. He still had a calm expression on his face. He sat on the back of the horse and looked at Nian Bing said with a smile that wasn't a smile, "Are you done with your performance? This is the Blazing Ice Palm, right? I haven't seen this kind of fighting aura for many years. Good, good, good. It seems that you are worthy of me relaxing my muscles. " With a push of his hand on the saddle, his tall body leaped into the air and landed in front of Nian Bing. The other two knights looked like they were watching a good show as they looked at Nian Bing with relaxed expressions.
Now that they were close, Nian Bing carefully sized up the mercenary in front of him. Vagrant was taller than him by half a head, and his shoulders were extremely broad. At this time, he had already taken a huge machete from his back. Nian Bing was surprised to find that this machete was exactly the same size and style as his Holy Glory. The machete in Vagrant's hand was as light as a feather. Vagrant raised the machete and pointed it at Nianbing, "Kid, come. Let's see if you are worth a thousand gold coins."
Ling Nian Bing's heart tightened when he saw the other party's calm and relaxed attitude. He wasn't a careless person. He put his hands together and separated them. The Sigh of the Ice Goddess and the Roar of the Fire God were in his hands. Two different auras of ice and fire pervaded his body.
Vagrant smiled, revealing his big front teeth, "Not bad, good machete. It suits your Blazing Ice Dou Qi very well. Come, let me see to what extent your Blazing Ice Dou Qi has been trained. "
Nian Bing was speechless in his heart! The other party actually thought that he was a warrior. However, this was also good. The other party's misjudgment would bring more opportunities for him. The tip of his foot lightly touched the ground, and his body floated backwards. Due to his understanding of the ice element, the blizzard he used was already in an invisible state. Unless someone was beside him and felt the rapidly rotating Dou Qi, no one would be able to discover that he had cast a blizzard spell on himself.
Vagrant's expression suddenly changed. His right foot suddenly took a step forward, and he changed to holding his machete with both hands. With a loud shout, like a thunderclap in the air, the huge machete in the shape of Holy Glory chopped out like lightning. A faint golden light formed an arc of light, and went straight for Nian Bing. The reason why he looked down on Nian Bing was actually because he recognized the Blazing Ice Dou Qi. This kind of Dou Qi really did exist. Although it was very overbearing, but because of the conflict between ice and fire, it was very difficult to train to a higher level. Therefore, he had nothing to fear. Seeing the faint golden machete, Nian Bing was shocked. He had never thought that this seemingly reckless mercenary in front of him would actually be a Knight of Light. Light magic was a rare type of magic among the many types of magic. That was the privilege of the church's priests. And the Light Dou Qi was even rarer, even rarer than the Well of Darkness. Not only because it was extremely difficult to train, but also because the restriction of the Light Dou Qi was too great.
In order to train in the Light Dou Qi, the most basic requirement was to have a Body of Light. Just this point alone was already very rare among ordinary people. Moreover, this was not the key point. If one only had a Body of Light, it would be very difficult to train in the Light Dou Qi, and the speed of improvement would only be one fifth of the normal Dou Qi. Therefore, in order to have some achievements in the Light Dou Qi, one must obtain the approval of the Light Dou Qi. This was not something that ordinary people could do, because the prerequisite for obtaining the approval of the Light Dou Qi was to have a magnanimous heart, to do things in an open and aboveboard manner. As long as there was a trace of dirty thoughts in one's heart, one would not be able to obtain the approval of the Light Dou Qi.
Once these two conditions were met, one could start to train in the Light Dou Qi. However, if a warrior who trained in the Light Dou Qi had darkness in his heart, the Light Dou Qi would not hesitate to abandon him. Without the support of the Light Dou Qi, the power of the Light Dou Qi would be greatly weakened. This was the only restriction of the Dou Qi. Therefore. Choosing to train in the Light Dou Qi not only required one to be extremely talented, but also to have a near perfect state of mind.
In the Yangon Dafa, anyone who trained in the Light Dou Qi would naturally receive the title of Light Knight, and would be a talent that every empire would fight to win over. Because. There was no need to doubt the Light Knights, as long as they were subdued, they would definitely be the most capable subordinates, no matter when.
There was no need to worry about them betraying him, and even more so, there was no need to worry about them doing anything that would harm him. Unfortunately. The number of Light Knights was extremely small, and the number of Light Knights who were able to train in the Light Dou Qi to a high level was even more pitiful.
Of course, because the Light Dou Qi was difficult to train in, if it was truly mastered, its power would be above the other Dou Qi, and its most obvious characteristic was that it was able to restrain the Darkness Dou Qi. Once they encountered a creature that possessed the Darkness Dou Qi, the Light Knight's strength would be extremely powerful. In front of the Light Dou Qi, unless there was a huge difference in strength, it would be very difficult to contend against it. Even if it was the other Dou Qi, when encountering the Light Dou Qi of the same level, they would be shocked by the opponent's fearless spirit, and would only be able to display less than eighty percent of their strength.
Therefore, when Nian Bing discovered that the opponent was actually using the Light Dou Qi. Although he was surprised in his heart, he did not have the time to retaliate. His body floated backwards, and the two magic blades in front of him shone brightly. Just like before, the same magic of ice and fire intertwined. However, this time, with the amplification of the Ice Goddess's Breath and the Fire God's Roar, the effect was much stronger than before. Moreover, this time, Nian Bing used a second rank magic.
Under Nian Bing's exquisite control, the moment the two energies of ice and fire came into contact with the opponent's Light Dou Qi, a triple explosion occurred. This was where Nian Bing was smart. Relying on the powerful magic after entering the Magic Realm, he could completely superimpose three spells. This was also the strongest attack he could release without chanting a curse. Although a lot of magic would be lost during the superposition, the power was still very amazing.
The harsh friction sound and the violent explosion sounded at the same time. Ling Nian Bing only felt that his whole body was shocked and warm. That was the aura of light. Fortunately, he reacted quickly. After the opponent's blade broke through the strong explosion, the power of the opponent's blade weakened a lot. He took advantage of the momentum to retreat, so he was not touched by the Dou Qi of the blade.
"Well, it's not easy to practice the Ice and Fire Dou Qi to this level. Why be a bandit? Come and be a mercenary. Hahaha. " Vagrant did not chase after him. He carried the huge blade on his shoulder and looked at Nian Bing with a smile.
Nian Bing finally understood why Vagrant's nickname was gold-plated blade. With the Light Dou Qi, his blade flashed with golden light. It was indeed like gold plating. "Brother Vagrant, do you know that your smile is very ugly? Especially, you should brush your teeth." The laughter suddenly stopped. Vagrant closed his mouth so that his big yellow teeth would not be exposed. He said angrily: "I hate it when people talk about my teeth. Little bandit, you can leave. I don't want to kill people."
Nian Bing held the two magic blades on the ground beside him and said indifferently: "But, I have to plunder." Vagrant's strength had already aroused his competitive spirit. Now, even without Garamandis' request, he also wanted to fight with this Light Knight. "But I don't understand. You are a dignified Light Knight. Why do you want to be a mercenary?"
Vagrant said: "I also don't understand. You are a dignified successor of the Ice and Fire Dou Qi. Why do you want to be a bandit? As far as I know, your family should be rich. " Nian Bing didn't bother to explain himself. Instead, he channeled his mana and began chanting an incantation. Although he wasn't able to chant a stronger incantation at this distance, he still had enough time to chant a Tier 4 incantation. He chose to chant a fire-type incantation. Coupled with the blizzard under his feet, it was also a very good ice and fire type attack. When the ice and fire type attack reached level four, the power was already quite impressive.
In fact, on the surface, Nian Bing was still at a disadvantage. After all, he was a magician and not a warrior. When a magician and a warrior fought face to face, if they did not have the help of magic scrolls, it would be very disadvantageous for them. This was because the incantation took time.
Nian Bing's incantation was very soft. Vagrant could only see his lips buzzing. The red air flow gathered in the direction of the Righteous Yang Sword. Nian Bing's eyes brightened. Two cold lights shone from behind the skull marrow mask. He raised his hands, and the blizzard under his feet appeared. Together with a single form of Fire Wall, he suddenly rushed towards Vagrant.
Vagrant faced the attack head-on. His eyes showed a trace of surprise. When did the Ice and Fire Dou Qi become able to be used like this? "Boy. You are not bad! " This time, he jumped up. The original golden light on the blade instantly spread to his whole body. The Light Dou Qi wrapped his body like a golden flame. He also went straight up and down, but. This time, the Earth Dou Qi was much more tyrannical.
The golden light seemed to have risen to the heavens and split the earth apart. Nian Bing only had time to control the explosion of the same origin of ice and fire before the golden light slashed down. He could clearly see that the golden light actually flashed with a hint of green when it came into contact with his magic. His heart shook. He did not have time to think. He did not even have time to turn around. His feet alternately touched the ground, and he quickly retreated.
The air seemed to be frozen in an instant. The ice and fire type attack exploded at the same time and displayed the power it should have. However. Whether it was the cold of the ice or the heat of the fire, when they met the silver golden light, they were automatically blocked. The huge sword actually cut Nian Bing's magic in half like cutting firewood. At the same time, the sword rushed forward and caught up with Nian Bing's body like lightning.
What could Nian Bing do now? He could no longer rely on his own magic. Even if it was a first step magic, he still needed to urge his magic, and he simply did not have the time. At this critical moment. His reaction was very fast. His hands made the same movements as the two magic swords. One blue and one red light gathered in front of him. Relying on the Sigh of the Ice Goddess and the Roar of the Fire God, he directly faced the opponent's sword.
The ice and fire type attack was the combination of two extreme magic. The power that it could unleash was incomparable to that of a single elemental magic. Although the wandering Light Dou Qi managed to cut through Nian Bing's magic, it was not as easy as it seemed. The sword light that was shot out was already at the end of its flight.
Nian Bing's hands trembled violently. The Sigh of the Snow Goddess and the Roar of the Fire God were knocked out of his hands at the same time. The remaining golden radiance slashed into his chest, and he felt a warm sensation. The impact sent him flying thirty feet away, but he didn't spit out any blood. Nian Bing, who was familiar with the characteristics of his skin, was very familiar with the characteristics of Garamandis. If it wasn't for that month of tempering, he might have been cut open.
At the very last moment, the Light Dou Qi only managed to cut open his clothes and left a faint mark on his chest.
While Nian Bing was rejoicing, the wandering Light Dou Qi was shocked. He did not expect that even after using seventy percent of his strength, he still would not be able to finish off this bandit. His figure flashed, displaying a speed that was completely disproportionate to his size. In the next moment, he was already in front of Nian Bing, his sword pointed forward, and placed it on Nian Bing's neck.
Just as Nian Bing was about to retaliate, the wandering Light Dou Qi suddenly retreated three steps as if he had met a ghost. For the first time, a look of shock appeared in his eyes. His eyes were fixed on Nian Bing's chest, and his body did not move at all. He did not attack again. Of course, Nian Bing did not understand why the wandering Light Dou Qi would stop, but he would not let this opportunity go. He clasped his hands in front of his chest, and quickly launched a second grade ice and fire attack. In the face of danger, the wandering Light Dou Qi subconsciously reacted. He waved the sword in his hand, creating a barrier of light that blocked the ice and fire magic.
Nian Bing, of course, did not expect his attack to hurt the wandering Light Dou Qi. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he hurriedly got up from the ground and ran towards Garamandis. "The great one, he is Swordsman. If you still want to eat good food, quickly come and help me."
A figure flashed, and Garamandis finally appeared. But it was not enough, he blocked Nian Bing's path. He raised his hand and knocked on Nian Bing's head. "Idiot, idiot, what are you doing?" Nian Bing angrily said: "Did you see his Saint Battle Qi? Do you think I can deal with a Radiant Knight with Saint Battle Qi? He is definitely not an ordinary mercenary. "
Garamandis snorted and said: "You idiot, why don't you have any confidence in yourself? If you did not talk so much nonsense and directly used your strongest spell, then he might not be able to deal with the seventh grade ice and fire magic. A Mage against a Warrior in close combat, if you don't die, who will? You only know how to belittle yourself. Although it is only a seventh grade spell, don't forget that the ice and fire magic can greatly increase your attack power. You have the opportunity to suppress your opponent. Who can you blame for giving up the opportunity? I will not take action. The battles between you humans have nothing to do with me. " “
Nian Bing's heart was sweating. He just remembered that Garamandis could not casually take action against humans. But, what should he do now? Looking at the appearance of Wandering's Dou Qi, he seems to be at the same level as Feng Nu. They have just entered the realm of Swordsman. It's just that he does not have a good weapon like Feng Nu, and his Saint Battle Qi is also worse than Feng Nu's. But, he is a Mage. Even if Garamandis is right, can Wandering give him the opportunity to chant a spell?
Turning back, Nian Bing could only helplessly summon the Holy Radiance Sword from his space ring. He can only take one step at a time and secretly chant the spell of Blizzard. At least this way he can run faster. But, to his surprise, Wandering did not chase after him. He raised his head and looked at Nianbing with a strange gaze. Suddenly, he turned around and walked towards his two companions and said in a deep voice: "Go and give him a hundred purple coins." After saying that, he directly mounted his horse.
Nian Bing was stunned. Did he hear it wrong? He asked his subordinates to give him a hundred purple coins. That is the one thousand purple coins that he asked for before. He clearly has the upper hand, why does he want to give me money? Is it because he was shocked by Garamandis? That was impossible! Garamandis did not show his strength.
Nian Bing's thoughts were running wild. Wandering's two companions were also puzzled. The one on the left said: "Brother, are you sure? Why do you want to give him money? A hundred purple coins is not a small amount. "
Wandering stared at him and said: "I know what I am doing. Go and get it. I will pay for it."
The subordinate seemed to be very afraid of him. He did not dare to say anything and turned around to run back to the caravan.
Wandering raised his head and looked at Nianbing. His eyes showed surprise again because he saw the shining Holy Radiance Sword in Nian Bing's hand. At this time, Nian Bing did not think too much about why Wandering did this. He was picking up his Morning Dew Sword and Righteous Yang Sword.
"Little brother, come here." Wandering said gently to Nianbing.
