Ren Xiaosu was able to discover the uninvited guest because he had already released "Old Xu". Moreover, he realized that the Gray Robe who came was actually not that good at anti-reconnaissance. He did not discover "Old Xu"'s presence even after "Old Xu" followed him all the way.
Of course, Ren Xiaosu would not underestimate him just because of this. He would still use his full strength when he made his move later.
The other party was only 500 meters away from the outpost. When Sheep saw Zhang Jinglin retreating and leaving Ren Xiaosu behind to bring up the rear, he guessed the warlock had arrived.
He was no longer afraid. Instead, he looked at the young man in front of him with interest.
He was not very old, probably only 18 or 19 years old. His muscles were not that exaggerated, but they contained a huge amount of power.
When Ren Xiaosu grabbed him just now, he really could not resist at all. Ren Xiaosu's palms and arms were as tough as steel.
However, if he only had strength, he would not be able to fight against a warlock.
Fortress 178 and the warlock nation still did not know each other well. If these warlocks and apprentices knew of Ren Xiaosu's existence, they would probably not be so calm.
Of course, Sheep Apprentice was more concerned about another question. When would the effects of his drug wear off?
The man and sheep stood peacefully in front of the outpost. The outpost was located on a hill, and Ren Xiaosu could already see the gray figure approaching quickly.
From Old Xu's observation, the other party did not rely on his physical strength to move quickly. Instead, he relied on some strange power to reduce his weight and float forward at a low altitude.
Ren Xiaosu had to admit, just as Zhang Jinglin had said, the warlocks did have many strange means.
He stood at the outpost's entrance and silently sized up the other party. Meanwhile, the other party was also silently sizing him up from under his gray hood.
When the warlock got closer, Ren Xiaosu suddenly felt his body getting heavier. It was as though the gravity around him was increasing.
He looked at the other party calmly and saw the warlock holding a white stone in his hand. Through the gap between the warlock's thumb and index finger, Ren Xiaosu could see … a purple eye shining on the stone.
Wait, why do these purple eyes look so familiar?
He sized up the third weapon in the palace in his mind. The purple eye on the black stone was exactly the same as the one in his opponent's hand!
For the Magus to exert gravity on him, it must be some kind of strange technique that he had inherited from the Magus. If he wanted to use this technique, he had to use the stone in his hand!
Otherwise, he wouldn't have grabbed a rock for no reason.
In just a moment, Ren Xiaosu figured out many things. No wonder the third weapon was a stone. He was still wondering how a stone could be considered a weapon. Could it be used as a hidden weapon to smash people?
Only now did he understand that this stone was a wizard's weapon.
The relevant clues had also surfaced. The Proficiency Stones in the palace's vending machine must also be related to wizards!
Thinking of this, Ren Xiaosu's heart burned with passion. However, he had no time to think about this now. As the pressure on his body increased, Ren Xiaosu's expression became solemn.
However, Ren Xiaosu found it a little strange. The other party was only ten meters away from him, and he could easily take his opponent's life at this distance.
Moreover, "Old Xu" had already climbed up the hill behind him and was lying in ambush. With "Old Xu's" speed, it would not even take a second for it to stab the black saber into the warlock's back.
Seeing the other party's defenseless appearance, Ren Xiaosu felt like he was looking at a naive fool. He was clearly a legendary warlock with powerful combat strength, so why was he so stupid?
Wait a minute, the Magus Nation and Fortress 178 had not gone to war for 17 years. 17 years ago, there were no such powerful individuals as supernatural beings. Although there were Knights, Knights had never participated in the war in the Northwest.
So, could it be that the other party was a little out of touch and did not know about the changes that had taken place in the "Central Plains"?
Thinking of this, Ren Xiaosu suddenly pretended to struggle with all his might. However, he did not use too much force because he could sense the other party's strength. He was worried that he would really break free if he used too much force.
After all, it was only easier for the enemy to tell the truth when victory was in their grasp.
The warlock looked at Ren Xiaosu and said with a smile, "Don't even try to struggle. Even the most powerful gladiator in the kingdom can't break free from this earthbind spell."
Ren Xiaosu said coldly, "You're a warlock?"
The warlock smiled and said, "You can address me as Lord Mego."
With that, the purple eye on the stone in the warlock's hand suddenly lit up. Ren Xiaosu was surprised to see the Sheep beside him transform into a human.
The warlock looked at his new apprentice and was stunned for a moment. Then he frowned and said, "Filthy."
The apprentice looked down at his lower body and hurriedly said, "Lord Mego, this kid drugged me!"
"I see." Mego nodded. "Where are the others at this outpost?"
"I don't know how this kid found out that you were coming, but he got the sentries to bring his master away. He stayed behind to cover the rear," the apprentice said.
When Ren Xiaosu heard this, a strange expression appeared on his face. However, he immediately increased the intensity of his struggle and put on an angry expression to hide his true thoughts.
Ren Xiaosu wondered if this warlock and his servant had misunderstood something. Wait a minute, could it be that they had misinterpreted the scene where he was carrying Zhang Jinglin on his back?
"With me around, don't even think about hurting Mr. Zhang," Ren Xiaosu roared angrily.
Mego laughed and said, "You're quite loyal, but your master didn't take you with him. Didn't he still abandon you?"
Ren Xiaosu said with a ferocious expression, "What do you know? It's my duty to protect him!"
At this moment, Ren Xiaosu seemed to be struggling too much, and the invisible Earthbind Spell exploded out of nowhere. Seeing this, Ren Xiaosu quickly retracted his strength. Then, he thought to himself, The Earthbind Spell that this warlock boasted doesn't seem to be that powerful after all!
Seeing this, Mego's expression froze. He immediately held the stone in his hand and strengthened the spell. When Ren Xiaosu slowly became unable to move, Mego finally heaved a sigh of relief.
Instead, he became very interested in Ren Xiaosu. "You almost broke free from the Earthbind Spell. You're even stronger than the strongest gladiator in the kingdom!"
Ren Xiaosu stopped struggling and said with a cold expression, "Insignificant tricks. Do you dare to let go of these shackles and duel with me?"
"Simple-minded." Mego chuckled. "Why don't we make a deal?"
"What deal?"
"If you become my servant, I won't go after your former master. Consider it as me giving you an explanation. What do you think?" Mego asked. "Of course, you can refuse, but I believe that your master isn't too far away. I only need half an hour to retrieve his heart and show it to you."
