In the warm and spacious inn, as it was time for dinner, the guests who were staying here all went downstairs and went to the dining hall below.
Perhaps it was because there were very few people who came to this town, but in the surroundings, other than Adil, there were only 3 or 4 wooden tables with people sitting at them, which was very eye-catching in the spacious dining hall.
In front of Adil, there were 2 people sitting at a big wooden table. One was wearing a black robe, and the other was wearing a red robe. The aura that they gave off was a bit strange.
The one wearing the black robe was an old man with deep wrinkles on his face. He didn't look young anymore, but he gave off a unique and strange aura that was similar to Ciesti's aura.
As for the other one wearing a red robe, he was a middle-aged man. His face looked cold and arrogant, and it was obvious that he wasn't someone to be trifled with.
From his body, there was a faint spiritual undulation that caused people to subconsciously feel fear and instinctively want to stay away from this person.
Sitting on a wooden chair and sensing the aura of the 2 people in the distance, Adil's heart trembled.
"They're both official Magi …"
Looking at the sumptuous food on the table, he sighed.
The A.I. Chip in his mind was unable to detect the data of these 2 people. Their bodies were covered with a thin layer of force field that concealed all of their aura.
This kind of situation could only be achieved by official Magi, and the 2 people in front of him were not ordinary official Magi.
There was no need to talk about the black-robed Magus who looked like an old man. From the strange aura that was similar to that of Ciesti and the others, it could be guessed that Ciesti and the others were undoubtedly under his control.
As for the middle-aged Magus who wore a red robe, he was also not simple. There was a high chance that he was a Blood Magus who had been to the battlefield, and his battle strength was far stronger than ordinary Magi.
Usually, no matter which one of these 2 Magi he met, Adil would have to treat them with caution. Now, he had unexpectedly met both of them in this remote town.
On the right side of the 2 Magi, there were a few other acolytes gathered together, sitting at another big wooden table.
Andrew and Ciesti sat at the side with stiff expressions. They didn't say anything and just ate their dinner in silence.
The others were the same. Silent, they ate their dinner in front of them without any intention of talking.
After they finished dinner, they didn't stay there. Instead, they walked in different directions. Some of them chose to return to their rooms upstairs, while others headed outside.
Among them, Ciesti, Andrew, and the others walked out together.
The two Magi at the wooden table in front of Adil did not react, as if they were not worried that they would escape.
After finishing his dinner in Silence, Adil stood up to pay the bill and walked out.
The moment he turned around and walked to the door of the hotel, he lowered his head slightly. His face quickly changed into the appearance of a black-haired young man.
Along the way, Adil thought for a moment before returning to his room. He changed out of the black robe he was wearing before walking out and continuing to walk outside.
This town was only so big. Even though he couldn't use his spiritual force to search because of the 2 official Magi, it was still very easy to find Andrew and the others.
Walking on the spacious street, Andrew was wearing a long robe and was walking at the front.
On his side was Ciesti and the other 2 acolytes, who were currently strolling around.
Although they were walking, they didn't seem happy at all. Instead, they all had cold expressions, as if they didn't care about anything.
Slowly, they looked around and walked into an empty alley.
After arriving here, they cautiously looked around. After confirming that no one was following them, they let out a sigh of relief.
"That female acolyte who was monitoring us didn't follow us …"
After looking around, Ciesti spoke first.
"In her heart, we are probably already dead people … naturally there is no need to follow us."
Another female acolyte wearing a light green robe had a bitter expression. She turned around and looked at the others, "How do you guys feel?"
"Very uncomfortable … My magic power is completely sealed, and there is also a problem with my spirit sea. Don't talk about constructing spell templates, I can't even do my daily meditation."
A black-haired middle-aged acolyte smiled bitterly and said, "Right now, other than our physical strength being comparable to some weaker knights, we are actually no different from normal people."
"We need to think of a way as soon as possible."
After arriving here, Andrew's expression was grave, "We have already reached Frost Mountain Range, we don't have much time left."
"You guys should have also noticed … Those 2 official Magi's attitude towards us is becoming more and more indifferent. At the start, they would still monitor us, but after arriving here, they don't even look at us …"
"I have a bad premonition … After they find their target, our mission will most likely come to an end."
The acolytes were all silent.
Being forcefully controlled by 2 official Magi, as the other party got closer and closer to their target, the acolytes felt more and more pressure.
For 2 official Magi to forcefully control so many acolytes, it was impossible for them to bring them to this place for an outing. They definitely had their own goals.
From a glance, they could tell that these 2 official Magi were not good people. After they reach their goal, there was a high chance that these acolytes would not be able to survive.
As acolytes, they were very clear about the cruelty of the Magus World.
However, facing 2 official Magi, it was not something that they, who were not even level 3 acolytes, could resist. Even if they knew that the other party was about to make a move, they were unable to resist at all.
"If we want to fight against official Magi, only official Magi can do it …"
At the end of the discussion, they sunk into silence. A few of them had a faint look of despair in their eyes.
"Let's stop here for today …"
After staying silent for a long time, Andrew spoke again, "We have already been out for a long time, if we return late, I'm afraid that we will be suspected by that person monitoring us."
The rest of them silently nodded, then slowly walked into the distance.
On the way back to the streets of the small town, in order to reduce suspicion, they split up and left.
After the rest of them left, Andrew and Ciesti slowed down their pace and walked towards another corner.
"The 2 of them have left."
After carefully observing the surroundings and confirming that there was no one around, Ciesti said.
"It's best that they left. Although they are being controlled, it is best not to let others hear some things."
Standing in the spacious corner and looking around, Andrew heaved a sigh of relief. His expression became much more solemn, "If we want to fight against 2 official Magi, it is impossible to rely on just us acolytes."
"If we want to fight against official Magi, we can only rely on other official Magi."
Standing at the same spot, Andrew looked very calm, "Looking at this period of time, those 2 official Magi are definitely not as harmonious as they seem on the surface. The reason why they haven't started a fight, other than being wary of each other's strength, is also because the historical remnant has not been found yet."
"However, when the historical remnant is found, our chance will come!"
"You are saying … When they have an internal conflict?"
Hearing Andrew's words, Ciesti frowned, "But we have swallowed the parasite, even if we successfully leave in the end, as long as the other party doesn't undo the spell, we will still die."
"So, in order for us to live, we can only let the others die."
Andrew's expression was cold, "I have read some information about parasitism before. Once a specially made parasite enters the body, it will immediately melt into the body, and there is no way to take it out."
"If we want to undo this spell, other than the caster taking the initiative to undo it, the only way is to kill the caster, then the spell will automatically undo itself."
"However, under normal circumstances, this is very difficult to do, especially when we are being controlled, it is almost impossible." Ciesti's face revealed a bitter smile.
"Let's be as careful as possible."
Speaking up to here, Andrew was a little silent, "In the end, there might be a turn for the better."
Tss tss …
A light sound came from afar, and in an instant, Andrew's expression changed.
"Who!!"
The sound of a sword being unsheathed rang out. Andrew's expression was cold, and his eyes were burning with killing intent as he fiercely looked towards the direction where the sound came from.
Don't look at how he was currently being controlled by the parasitism and was unable to cast any spells. However, this did not mean that he no longer had the power to kill.
As a level 2 acolyte, even if his magic was sealed and he was unable to cast any spells, his body's quality was still comparable to a Knight's. Although he lacked the life seed and was not a match for a Knight, it was still not a problem for him to take care of some ordinary people.
At the corner that he was looking at, a black-robed young man was currently standing there. Right now, the black-robed young man was looking at Andrew and his face revealed an expression of interest, as if he had seen something interesting.
Without any hesitation, in the next moment, a black shadow rushed towards the black-haired young man like a gust of wind. A bright silver sword emitted a silver-white sword light, and with a whistling sword wind, ruthlessly slashed onto the black-haired young man's body.
This attack was extremely heavy, and it had already used up all of the strength that Andrew could muster. Under a situation where he was caught off guard and was hit, even a Knight would definitely be heavily injured.
However, what made the two people shocked was that when the bright silver sharp sword slashed onto the young man's body, the scene of flesh and blood splattering did not appear. Not even a ripple appeared.
In front of the black-robed young man, a layer of faint ripples appeared, as if a small stone had been thrown into a clear lake, causing the lake water to ripple slightly.
Andrew's sword was not even able to slash down, and was directly repelled by the force field that was transmitted from the other party's surface.
"An official Magus!!"
Looking at this scene and feeling the rebounding force from his hand, Andrew's face revealed a look of despair. He no longer had any hopes of getting lucky.
Without the slightest hesitation, his face revealed an expression of fear and disbelief. He immediately lowered his head deeply and threw the sword on his arm onto the ground, letting out a clear sonorous sound, "Lord Magus, please forgive me for offending you! I … "
Before he could finish speaking, the area in front of him was suddenly shrouded by a black shadow, and a figure walked in front of him in an instant.
"It's over …"
This thought flashed past his mind in an instant, and then he immediately closed his eyes.
Just that after a long time, the expected pain and suffocation did not come.
"Andrew, you can't recognize me so quickly?" A light voice sounded beside his ear, bringing along an indescribable sense of familiarity.
Hearing this voice, Andrew immediately opened his eyes and suddenly raised his head, his eyes still carried an expression of disbelief.
Behind Andrew, Ciesti opened her eyes. Although she did not say anything, her eyes were also staring at Adil's body.
Under their gazes, the black-robed young man in front of them revealed a smile on his face. The appearance of his face began to change, and in the end, it turned into a face that they felt familiar with.
… …
Tens of minutes passed by very quickly. After a while, Andrew and Ciesti both walked out from the corner again.
Compared to before, their expressions were still somewhat numb, and there was only a faint trace of excitement, which they concealed very well.
After walking out of the corner, they quickly returned to the inn from before.
"Why did you go out for so long?" A sharp female voice sounded from in front of them.
A black-robed female acolyte stood in front of the door, her expression somewhat cold and unkind, looking at them.
"We went out for a walk for a while."
Looking at the other party, Andrew walked in front and said with a numb expression.
"Oh, I feel that you two wanted to escape."
The unkind voice sounded, and the female acolyte revealed a cold smile.
"Milord, you must be joking …" Andrew hurriedly revealed a fearful expression.
"Alright, stop pretending."
The black-robed female acolyte in front was somewhat impatient, "Get ready, we will leave once the sun rises."
After saying these words, she did not pay any more attention to Andrew and Yabemiya, and directly walked to the side, looking like she was going to inform the others.
Behind her, Andrew and Ciesti looked at each other, seeing the seriousness in each other's eyes.
Since they were about to leave, it meant that they were one step closer to the other party's goal.
Facing two true Sorcerers, even though they knew that Adil would be following them, they still felt quite uneasy.
Putting aside the difference in numbers, these two true Sorcerers did not seem like ordinary people.
For Adil to become a true Sorcerer at such a young age, he was already at his limit. It was likely that he had just become a true Sorcerer, and it was unlikely that he would be a match for an experienced true Sorcerer.
Despite their apprehension, they did not hesitate in the slightest. They immediately returned to their rooms and quickly packed up their belongings.
The next day, when the first rays of sunlight lit up the land, they were led by a few black-robed people and hired a few guides as they headed into the depths of the mountain range.
Behind them, Adil followed far away.
Facing two true Sorcerers, he naturally did not dare to hide in front of them. In order to be safe, he did not even dare to use magic skills, and he could only follow behind them.
