Under the different gazes of the three, Leon stepped forward, stopped by the campfire, and smiled a little: "Good evening."

Anna was afraid of Grace in the Mage Association and did not dare to take the initiative to find Lyon. Although there is still a demon, but the demon is more reasonable than Grace, so now she is more relaxed than in the Mage Association, and stood up and said: "Lyon Master, such a coincidence."

"Where is such a coincidence?" Rotgar sneered.

Lyon nodded generously and admitted: "It's really not a coincidence. I heard Tereza say that you set out here this morning and chased you. Recently, the life and death line is not very peaceful, I want to walk with you and be safer."

Anna was a little surprised when she heard that. It is definitely a good thing to have multiple experienced mages like Leon, but she guessed that the devil would not agree.

Sure enough, the devil sneered: "I don't agree."

Leon looked at Rothgar with a calm tone: "What about the reason?"

"No reason." Rotgar looked at Leon indifferently, as if he was too lazy to look at the campfire.

"In order to prevent something like that last time, I think you should abandon your immature personal preferences and cooperate with me." Lyon was always calm. Although he looked at Rotgar with disgust in his eyes, he was restrained. You can't protect Anna and Natalie from similar accidents."

"You can take Natalie away, and I will protect Anna naturally." Rotgar titted for tat.

Natalie: "..."

No, why should she be taken away by the Lyon Master? She wants to be with Anna!

"One person will inevitably have omissions, two people are more secure." Leon seemed to have not heard the hostility in Rotgar's tone, and was always reasoning.

Rothgarh replied with a sarcasm.

Anna looked at Leon and then at the devil, it seemed that neither of these two would back down.

She has to pay more attention to the idea of ​​the devil, who calls him the most powerful here? It made him feel bad, but she was the one who was unlucky.

"Mage Lyon, since Raymond doesn't want to, then forget it." Anna said to Leon apologetically, and smiled again, "But the line of life and death is so big, we can't control which way you go."

Rothgar was still a little delighted when he heard what Anna said at the beginning, and when her last word came out, he couldn't help frowning and staring at her.

Leon looked at Anna with a smile in his voice: "That's right."

He nodded slightly at Roth Garr, turned and left.

Although Leon's face was calm, there was a hint of triumphant pride hidden in Rotgar's view.

Rothgar stared at Anna coldly: "Anna, what are you doing?"

Anna has touched the edge of his bottom line when she gets along with the devil. This is the result of her probing back and forth on the bottom line. She guessed that he would be angry, but she wouldn't really do anything yet.

Look, she didn't accept Lyon into the team without authorization, she just told an obvious fact.

"I'm helping you to persuade Leon Mage." Anna said frankly, "Look, didn't he go?"

Rothgar laughed angrily: "What does it mean if you can't control which way he takes?"

"It means literally. You don't want him to cooperate with us to form a team. Doesn't he know that he can follow us from a distance? This persuades him to leave." Anna's tone became more and more determined.

There was no guilty conscience in Anna's response, and Rothgar almost really believed that she was completely on his side and persuaded Leon to go.

He was still sitting by the bonfire, and Anna was standing opposite the bonfire. He raised his head slightly, his eyebrows seemed to be brewing a storm, and he sneered and said, "Don’t you think you can be with him after he retires? ?"

Anna deliberately sneered and asked him: "That's how you think of me?"

Even if there were no demons, Anna couldn’t think about what to do with Lyon right after he retired. First, Lyon’s ex-fiancee was a bit difficult, and she didn’t want to cause this trouble. Second and most importantly, she Now there is no love between men and women towards Lyon.

She likes Lyon, but it is similar to the kind of like among friends. She may also have a little admiration for his knowledge and gratitude for him to help her get started with the system.

But now, the devil is watching him, how dare she show interest in a man other than him? That is harming people.

She has been showing such interest in demons recently, and her usual attitude towards getting along has also changed unknowingly. Now he suddenly asks this, she should be very angry in normal reactions, right? He was slandering her by stepping on two boats!

Rothgar was taken aback by Anna's rhetorical question.

When he was in Blue Rock City, he always thought that Anna was another appearance, vanity, cunning, and greedy. Later, he realized that all of her appearance was in disguise. In fact, she was an unscrupulous woman for the sake of spells.

During the time in Black Cloud City, he found that she seemed to enjoy her study in the Mage Association very much, and she no longer wore the disguise she had to wear when she was in Blue Stone City, and became much more sincere. This look of Anna looks much cuter and more interesting.

However, her attitude towards him always makes him unpredictable. Sometimes he felt as if he could immediately grab her heart and make a successful marriage proposal, sometimes she seemed to be very alienated from him.

In fact, he didn't really think that Anna would want to marry Leon. He believed that Anna and Lyon had a good relationship in order to get magical guidance from him.

Even himself, he sometimes suspects that she is so close to him because he can teach her to fight.

After all, spells are the most important in her heart.

Rothgar always felt that Anna's mind was very difficult to guess, but he was convinced that even if she was close to him and coveted his practical experience, he still liked him more.

Otherwise, why didn't Anna be so close to Lyon, didn't she still use a respectful name for Lyon?

Rothgar wanted to understand, but still felt that the way Anna was smiling at Leon just now was too annoying.

He said dissatisfiedly to answer the question: "Without Leon, I can protect you."

His confidence naturally comes from his own strength.

If he really encounters Raymond's physical danger that is difficult to fight, he will naturally show up, and he can't cause her to have an accident.

If Anna didn't doubt the devil, that time the devil was driven to desperation with Raymond's body. If Leon did not appear in time, the devil might also appear in real form.

Anna's tone also eased: "I know."

Rothgar's sight passed through the jumping firelight and touched Anna's.

He suddenly had a strange feeling.

Anna's words are true, she believes that he can protect her under any circumstances.

...This feeling of being trusted by people wholeheartedly is really good.

Rothgar has been to the human world many times, and he has been possessed by many people, but his main purpose at those times was to find ancient books that may be related to the Curse of the Abyss, and he has never had too much contact with others.

In the Devildom, he is the only person in his castle. Balan is his friend, but Balan has his own castle, and he is also one of the Great Duke of the Abyss. Balan can face any attacking enemy independently without his friend's help.

What he brings to others is usually only fear, tremor and despair. No one has ever trusted him like this.

Rotgar suddenly didn't bother to investigate Leon following them.

He was even a little bit complacent.

Just let Leon follow. The person Anna trusts most is him, Rotgar.

Thinking of this, Rotgar couldn't help frowning again.

The person Anna saw was Raymond, not him. In fact, she trusted Raymond.

If he leaves Raymond's body, will Anna discover that the person she trusts is not the same as Raymond?

Rothgar had never considered this kind of problem before, but today, when this problem entered his mind, he suddenly became concerned about it.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the answer was no. In the past few times when he had a different body and approached Anna, she had not noticed any abnormalities.

But he changed his mind. He basically acted according to Parish’s character when possessing Parrish. It was the same when possessing Ulysses, and Anna hadn’t had much contact with Victor before taking possession of Victor. After leaving Victor's body, Anna has left Blue Rock City again, and she doesn't know the difference between Victor's character before and after.

As for that Dibian, who has only been possessed for a while, what difference can she see?

Now this Raymond's body is also, she was already him when she saw "Raymond", she didn't know what Raymond was like before, of course it was impossible to know the difference.

If he leaves Raymond's body now, will Anna notice the difference? Will she be estranged from each other because she realizes that the Raymond in front of her is not the one she knows, or even if Raymond loses the memory of being with her and does not recognize her, she wants to get acquainted with Raymond again ?

Rothgar is very curious about this question, but if he leaves Raymond's body, he can't come back again. Seeing that he is progressing well now, how could he give up halfway?

It's better to wait until he has a successful marriage proposal and try it.

Rothgar stood up and walked to his carriage.

Upon seeing this, Anna knew that he did not intend to pursue further investigations, and acquiesced to Lyon's intention to follow, and couldn't help complimenting herself in her heart.

She has become more and more adept at touching the tiger's **** without being bitten.

Seeing Rothgar leaving, Natalie suddenly grabbed Anna's arm and said in a low voice, "I thought I was really going to be thrown out by Mage Raymond! I don't want to be separated from Anna."

Anna comforted: "Don't worry, if he throws you out, I will go with you, and we will go to the Mage Lyon together."

"Anna, you are so kind, I like you so much!" Natalie said moved.

Anna smiled modestly: "Who makes me such a cute girl!"

This evening, Anna and Natalie slept peacefully in the carriage.

Before going to bed, Anna was a little worried about Epping at home. Before she left, she prepared drinking water and food for him for five days. She was afraid that the food would go bad. Except for the hot food on the first day, the rest were dry cakes. , So the shelf life is long.

Although Aipu condemned her for leaving him for five days with her eyes, Anna was cruel and unmoved.

She is about to participate in the promotion assessment in half a month. If she doesn't practice more, what can she do if she can't pass it? That was a waste of five gold coins!

She didn't feel bad for spending five gold coins to participate in the assessment, but if the five gold coins were not wasted in the assessment, she would have to die of depression.

The next morning, Anna got up and saw Lyon not far away, and the demon had also got out of the carriage, but didn't even look to Lyon.

According to the plan, today she and Natalie will follow the devil to walk within the line of life and death to see if they can find the kind of plant she is looking for that only grows within the line of life and death.

The coachmen stayed where they were as usual, with Rothgar in front, Anna and Natalie behind, and a little further away, following Leon.

The kind of plant Anna was looking for was called rabbit head grass. She had read the album and it did live up to its name. It looked like a rabbit head.

She knew that Leon often went to the life and death line, and deliberately asked him where he could find the bunny head grass, but worried about the demon who looked back at her from time to time when walking ahead, she dared not dare.

After walking for about two hours, a group of talents really came near the boundary of life and death.

The boundary between the life and death line is a large and very vague area. The plants here gradually begin to appear differently, and the animals and insects also have changes in the san value.

Those in the line of life and death are called monsters, and the demons come from the devil world. Anna couldn't help but guess whether there is any relationship between the two. If there is... then the demons can grow so handsome when the monsters are all strangely shaped. It's also a miracle.

"Anna, go and kill that thing." Rotgar pointed casually.

"What is it?" Anna didn't see it for a long time.

Rothgar: "Did you see that dead wood?"

Anna looked hard, and finally saw the half-person-tall dead wood a little abrupt.

"Witherwood?" she said in surprise.

Rothgar glanced at her: "This is its mimicry."

"Oh... what is its prototype?" Anna asked curiously.

Rothgar sneered, "Don't you know if you kill it?"

Anna didn't want to talk to the devil anymore, facing the monster by herself, she was a little nervous, but the demon swept her at the back, and she knew very well that she would be fine.

She walked slowly towards the "dead wood".

"It is called a woodland mimicry, and it mimics different appearances. It is very weak and can be easily killed by a mage or apprentice. However, it carries paralyzing toxins on its body. When an enemy approaches, it will suddenly pierce the poisonous needle at its tail. Inject toxins into the enemy's body and paralyze the enemy within three seconds, after which it can safely hunt the enemy for food."

Leon was not far away. After Anna and the three stopped, he followed him, and when Anna leaned towards the monster, he introduced him.

Hearing Leon's introduction, Anna was still worried for a moment, knowing the attack method of this woodland mimicry, she was not afraid at all.

Anna didn’t have the need to prepare the staff yet. Of course, her gold coins were not enough for her to do. After carefully stopping ten meters away from the woodland mimicry, her right palm spread out, and the thunder element condensed in her palm and instantly transformed. As a thunder and lightning, it struck the bug under her control.

I saw the purple thunder and lightning flashed by, and with a snap, the woodland mimicry, which mimicked like dead wood, did not even resist, and was blown into a pool of juice.

Anna: "..." This is too disgusting!

For a while, Anna was glad that she was hiding far, then she glanced at her palm again, and shook it, as if she felt the power contained in it.

She is no longer a weak person who can only be slaughtered.

She is on the road to the strong.

"Anna, that's amazing!"

Natalie couldn't help applauding. She had no idea about how powerful a monster is. Seeing Anna had a monster in an instant, she couldn't help but admire it very much.

"It's too weak, so can you!" Anna encouraged Natalie with a smile.

Then she noticed that the devil's face was not pretty.

Obviously, his hostility was directed at Leon.

Anna hesitated, and smiled at Leon: "Thank you for your reminder, Mage Leon." She paused. Anyway, she had already offended the devil, so she simply continued to ask, "I'm here to find rabbit head grass. , Do you know where they all grow?"

Lyon didn't care about Rotgar's hostility, he said somewhat unexpectedly: "Do you want to make'burning' and'intoxication'?"

"Yes!" Anna nodded quickly.

Leon asked again: "You already know all the other potions of the one-star stage?"

"Yes, these two are the difference now." Anna nodded.

Leon smiled slightly, with undisguised appreciation in his smile: "Your progress is enough to make any genius embarrassed. If other projects can also keep up, you may be able to directly register for the two-star upgrade assessment after the one-star upgrade assessment. ."

Anna was stunned. Although she knew that the two-star promotion test was just one month after the one-star test, she never entrusted her to think that she could be promoted to two consecutively.

Although it is indeed easier to upgrade at a low level than at a high level, if she becomes a second-star mage within three months after becoming a mage apprentice, she will probably cause a sensation, right?

Will it even attract the attention of the five-star master of the capital and accept her as a student? That way, at least she could try to see if the devil dared to possess under the eyes of the five-star mage.

The imagination in Anna's heart flashed by, and she smiled happily: "Mage Leon, you are absurd, I will try it!"

Leon smiled, pointed in a certain direction and said: "There is a piece of rabbit head grass about a mile south from here. You can pick it before you return to the city."

"Okay, thank you, Master Leon!" Anna quickly thanked her. She knew that the bunny grass should be handled as soon as possible after it was picked, otherwise it would "deteriorate" and it would be unusable. This "as soon as possible" refers to the best time to 24 hours. Within hours. So, when is she going to go back to the city to pick it?

Rotgar watched coldly at the two people talking, and the urge to kill Leon became stronger and stronger.

Then he saw Anna walking back to him quickly, smiling brightly when she looked up at him: "Raymond, I killed a woodland mimicry all at once, don't you praise me? "

Rothgar: "..."

He then glanced at Leon with a slight intention. Anna called him by name, but called the Mage Lyon, which shows how close she is to the two of them.

She just ran to talk to Leon, but just using the knowledge stored in Leon's mind, she still turned to him in her heart.

"Not bad." Rotgar reluctantly gave a positive comment, with a cheerful smile on his face, and walked in first.

Anna quickly dragged Natalie to follow, then turned to Leon and smiled apologetically.

She didn't know how the warriors who raised spare tires managed to get around in front of more than two spare tires, anyway, she felt it was too difficult, she was not a spare tire yet.

Leon didn't care about Rothgar's little pride, he followed the three of them while observing the surroundings and using exploration techniques from time to time.

After walking less than a hundred meters further in, Anna saw a bug bigger than a python appeared in front of her. Its appearance was like a centipede magnified dozens of times.

Rotgar just suffered a loss, so this time he said to Anna before Leon could speak: "The giant centipede is faster than you, and the venom sprayed can kill ten of you. He is good at soil spells. If You can't hit it hard with a single light. Once it gets into the soil, you can only swallow it in one bite with your current ability. Its weakness is the fifth limb, if you can hit it."

Oh, in terms of knowledge equipment, how can a human being like Leon, who has lived for less than 20 years, compare to a demon who has lived for thousands of years?

Anna: "..."

Why does this introduction of the devil sound so uncomfortable? Can you speak!

Anna did not see Leon to add, knowing that she knew it was enough, so she pulled Natalie's hand: "Natalie, let's go!"

Natalie was staggered by Anna, and said in horror: "I, do I want to go?"

"Of course, the actual combat with someone taking care of it is wasteful?" Anna clutched Natalie's hand tightly to prevent Natalie from shrinking. She could clearly feel that Natalie's hand was shaking. .

... Isn't she?

Such a big centipede! Super scary, okay!

"Don't be afraid, Natalie, Raymond and Leon Mages will protect us." Anna continued to encourage Natalie, "Take the courage to come, we are wizards!"

Natalie stubbornly took Anna's hand, her small face turned pale, and she barely stood up straight after taking two deep breaths and said: "I...I will go with you, Anna!"

Anna smiled comfortingly, but when she turned her head to look at the huge centipede, she couldn't help swallowing, her legs were a little soft.

Go beyond yourself and challenge the limit, she can!

Anna also took a deep breath, and moved away from Natalie, and the two of them touched the giant centipede from different directions.

For actual combat, they are not completely inexperienced. It's just that there are two kinds of experience in the battle between people and people. The first thing to do is to overcome the fear of the appearance of the monsters.

Anna and Natalie succeeded in this step, and next, what they faced was the real difficult part.

The giant centipede has long discovered the four people here. It has a low IQ, but it can feel that there are two people that are not easy to mess with, so it did not take the initiative to attack until it saw two seemingly weak humans approaching it.

It raised its head and was about to drill underground, and Natalie, who had also been prepared after hearing Rotgar’s introduction, immediately threw out the water mass formed by the water element in her hand, which happened to hit the giant centipede. It was about to burrow into the ground, blocking its castration.

At the same time, the thunder and lightning in Anna's hand also rushed to the giant centipede, the target is its fifth limb!

The giant centipede avoided her head just before Anna's thunder and lightning hit it. The red head turned to her, and Anna's hair was horrified.

It did not burrow into the ground, and several hairy legs moved quickly, rushing towards Anna.

Such a terrifying behemoth rushed towards him, Anna's first reaction was to run away, but she controlled this impulse for life, she is now a mage, how can she just want to run when she encounters a beast!

She condensed the wind element in her left hand and the thunder element in her right hand. While using the wind gathering technique to send herself away from the centipede, two successive lightning strikes hit its deadly limb!

The giant centipede tilted its head to avoid the first thunder and lightning, and the second thunder and lightning hit its head. Although it was not fatal, it shivered with electricity.

It was angry, its hairy legs moved so fast that it almost produced an afterimage, and it quickly narrowed the distance with Anna.

Behind it, Natalie was not proficient enough because of the wind gathering technique, so she could only throw water arrows at it from a long distance, but because of the distance it was moving again, the hit rate was extremely low, even if it hits, it didn't cause much damage. , It didn't even look back at her.

Ten meters... Five meters... Three meters... This giant centipede suddenly opened its mouth and sprayed a black venom.

Since Anna knew that this giant centipede was poisonous, how could she not take precautions?

In other words, she was waiting for the moment when the giant centipede approached.

At this moment, the wind created by the Wind Gathering Technique changed its direction, pushing her forward in parallel to sending her to the sky vertically. While avoiding the venom of the giant centipede, she was already condescending to the centipede.

Because it was spraying venom, the head of the giant centipede was hanging down, and the fifth limb was so brightly exposed in Anna's eyes. Of course, she would not let this opportunity pass, and a lightning bolt struck the target.

"Anna!"

At this moment, Anna heard Leon and the devil calling her in exclamation.

Is there a problem with her tactics?

Anna lowered her head and saw that on the ground below, the giant centipede hit by her had fallen soft to the ground, and her fifth limb was half scorched, obviously dead.

When she retracted her gaze, she saw Leon and the demon not far away running towards her, the light flashing in her hand was obviously preparing to do it, and she subconsciously looked at her side in the air.

A monster with three heads was in sight.

Anna was so frightened that she didn't let one of her head bite her. After all, she had little actual combat experience. This frightening wind technique dissipated, and the whole person fell down.

But it only sank half a meter, and one of her arms and shoulders was grasped by the sharp and strong claws of the other party, leading her to the line of life and death.

The sharp claws pierced into the shoulders, Anna's whole body weight was still hanging on this side, and the pain made her grin and almost lost her breath.

The flying speed of this monster is really fast, she is just a blink of an eye, there is only a dense forest under her body, and Leon and the devil are completely invisible.

She still remembered that before she first came to Black Cloud City, she was caught in the air by this three-headed beast, but Balan ordered it back then, and now it was definitely not the devil's instruction.

Now she is different from before. She has gathered wind and is not afraid of falling from a high altitude, so she hurriedly gathers thunder and lightning in her hand, and slams it on the head of this monster, but it seems to be immune to it and tilts her head. , The speed didn't slow down a bit.

After trying the magic tricks she knows like gold element, fire element, etc., Anna's face turned pale, one is because of the dull pain on the shoulder, and the other is because she realized that she is still too weak and small, and she is not an opponent of such a powerful monster. .

It seems that I have to come up with a killer!

Anna took a deep breath and shouted with all her strength, "Raymond, help—"
