Karui glanced at Ah-Dai, with a look of doubt in his eyes, as if surprised by Ah-Dai’s ignorance, but he still explained: "The Death Mountain is the most terrifying place on the mainland. It has a large area, almost the size of the Xibo people. It's almost there. A small part is in the territory of the Tianyuan Clan, and a large part is in the Huasheng Empire. It has almost become the natural dividing line between the Huasheng Empire and our Suoyu Federation. Now, if we Suoyu Federation people think of Huasheng The empire can only pass through the Tiangang Mountains or the territory of the Holy See, which is not far from it, otherwise it will take a long way. Legend has it that the great first pope and many magical mages sealed the ancient demon gods thousands of years ago. There are all kinds of terrifying monsters living in the mountains. Anyone who enters can hardly come out. There have been several large-scale mercenary groups to explore, but no one came back. I am afraid that we launched the whole group People of, may not be able to get the best magic crystal. I have seen several similar tasks in the general meeting of the Red Hurricane City before, all of which are looking for some particularly precious items, and these items are from the Death Mountain. It is said that, The closer the mountain is to the center, the more powerful the monster. The reason why this task of finding the best magic crystal is not the highest level-super, the main reason is that it is on the edge of the death mountain."

Xuan Yue said: "The place that sounds very interesting, Death Mountain Range? I have heard of it for the first time? You said that very few people can come out of the Death Mountain Range. How did the news of the best magic crystal come from? There must be a lot of exaggeration in this, and I don’t believe in how powerful monsters are.” In fact, almost everyone in the Holy See knows the name of Death Mountain, but Xuanyue’s father forbids everyone to tell his daughter. No one knows Xuanyue better than him. If Xuanyue knows that there is such a place, he will definitely arouse great interest in exploring. But man is not as good as the sky, and his efforts will be wasted.

　　 Xuanyue ignored the speechless Karui who was asked by herself, and turned to Dumb: "I've decided, I'll take this task of obtaining the best magic crystal, how about it? If you are afraid, you can not go."

Dumb shook his head and said without hesitation: "I'll go, but, miss, if we get the best magic crystal, I hope I can give me one, okay?" For him, filial tribute to Corris is far greater than death. The fear of the mountains.

　　 Xuanyue said generously: "No problem, then it's settled. Let's go, let's pick up the task."

　　 Karui was stunned as Xuan Yue and Duan ran to the task counter to pick up this task that even the Red Hurricane Mercenary Group would not even dare to touch. Listening to their tone, it seemed that the best magic crystal was already in hand. He hurried to the counter, "Miss Mage, that place can't go! You don't even have a warrior. Two magicians go there to die?"

Xuanyue has already handed her mercenary card to the service staff behind the counter, "Don't worry, how can there be high profits without danger? What I have decided will not change. We are flexible just because there are few people. , I really can’t beat the monster, we won’t run away. Hey, hurry up! I’m going to take that special mission, register as soon as possible, and we’re leaving.” The last sentence was addressed to the service staff at the counter.

　　The service staff at the counter thought that he had heard it wrong at first, but he didn't understand until now, and his voice trembled: "Miss Magician, are you sure?"

　　 Xuanyue chuckled and said, "Of course I am sure, quickly, yes, I have to call me the head of the evil mercenary group in the future."

　　 Watching the service staff register, Karui is still making the final efforts, "Miss Magician, that place is too dangerous, I think you should give it up."

Xuanyue took the registered card from the service staff and smiled at Karui: "Karuida--uncle--, you are too old, and the old man has no courage. Isn't it a monster? We are just going. See it, dumb, let's go." After speaking, he ran out of the mercenary union quickly.

　　 A dull and Xuan Yue left behind a voice of regret. No one is optimistic about their mission on this trip.

Karui has been in the society for many years. Of course he wouldn’t change his position just because Xuanyue said he was timid, and shook his head sadly, “It’s a newborn baby who doesn’t fear tigers. It’s a pity that two magicians! Death Mountain? Where can one go?"

　　 In the shadow outside the mercenary union, two figures are talking in a low voice.

　　 "Ginji, you quickly go back and tell the bishop that the lady is going to the Death Mountain, I will follow her."

　　 "Ginichi, let's stop the lady directly, but we must not let her go to the Death Mountain! There is a forbidden area announced by the Holy See."

"Hey—I know too, but do you think we can stop the young lady? You know her temper, you forgot the pain of being baptized by her light last time? Go ahead, only the bishop The great talent can prevent the young lady from taking risks, and I will try my best to protect them. If the bishop has not arrived at the edge of the death mountain, I will try to stop it."

　　 "Okay, Ginichi, then I'll go first. I must protect the lady's safety, otherwise, we will all be done. Although the lady is a little bit temperamental, she is still very kind!"

"You can also say, Miss, but I watched grow up. From the moment she was born, the director gave me this task. I couldn't even believe it at the time. After all, we weren't in the courthouse. What the hell! Go quickly, time is life."

　　 One of the two black shadows flashed and disappeared, while the other quietly followed Ah Du and Xuan Yue.

Xuan Yue said excitedly as she walked: "Dumb, you said, if we complete this task, will the level of the mercenary increase a lot? Maybe it's interesting to get a special mercenary. Hehe. "She seems to have forgotten the contradiction with Dumb in the morning, and her heart is full of expectations for adventure.

　　 Just now, they had first retrieved the Tiangang Sword from the Wizards’ Guild. Duan didn’t feel dissatisfied with Xuanyue’s task. He only had the term “extreme crystal” in his heart. "Miss, I want to ask you a question."

　　 Xuanyue was in a good mood and said, "You can ask."

　　 Dumb said: "Miss, do you know what the best crystal is like? If we don't even know what the goal is, how can we find it?"

Xuanyue smiled mysteriously, leaned to the side of Dui, looked around cautiously, and said in a low voice: "I didn't expect you to be able to think about problems. Of course I know what it looks like, otherwise, I won't pick it up. This task."

　　 dumbfounded and said: "You know?"

Xuan Yue said triumphantly: "Of course. Don't forget, my father is the cardinal of the Holy See, I haven't seen anything, you see." As she said, she stretched her short-handled magic wand in front of dumb. Pointing to the transparent gem above, he whispered: "This is the best magic crystal."

Ah Dui had never paid attention to Xuan Yue’s magic wand. Hearing what she said, he couldn’t help but look carefully. This magic wand, which was only about one foot long, couldn’t see any peculiarities on the surface. The white body of the wand was radiant. It is moist and faintly revealing a sacred aura. The tail end is a sharp cone. At the top of the staff, white wings of the same texture flew diagonally, slightly curved, forming two arcs, just like angel wings. In the center of the wings and at the top of the staff, there is a transparent gem the size of an egg. The gem seems to be flowing with liquid, and it shimmers with faint light from time to time under the reflection of sunlight. Pointing to the gem in the center, Dumb said, "You mean, is this the best magic crystal?"

　　 Xuanyue nodded and said: "Yes! That's what Dad told me. He definitely won't lie, don't you believe it?"

　　 Dumb carefully looked at the transparent gem in the center of the magic wand, and didn't see anything strange. Xuan Yue explained: "There will be a special energy fluctuation in the best magic crystal, as long as I see it, I will definitely recognize it. Just now they said that we don't have a warrior, how did they know that you are a warrior, hehe, hurry up , Let’s prepare some food first, and then set off."

Dui followed Xuanyue to the fat owner's steamed bun shop, Xuanyue glanced at Ah-Dai, and said, "Don't you like to eat steamed buns? Let's prepare more so that we can eat on the road." As he said, she headed towards the steamed bun shop. go with. Dumb froze, his heart fluctuated slightly, and he didn't say anything, just followed him.

As soon as I saw the arrival of Duan and Xuanyue, the fat boss said excitedly: "Dumb, you are here, I'm just about to pay you the remaining money? Yesterday you gave too much, my buns, even one Gold coins are not worth it!"

　　 Dumb lifted up the cloak on his head and smiled sullenly: "Uncle, you can accept it, I should give it to you."

　　 Xuanyue leaned in and said, "Boss, I want to buy steamed buns. How much is one?"

　　 The fat boss said: "One copper plate and two, miss, you came with Dui, you can take it, the money that Dui gave yesterday is more than enough."

　　 Xuanyue chuckled and said, "I want a lot, you know, he can eat very well."

　　 The fat boss chuckled and said, "Just take as much as you want, and you're full."

　　 Xuanyue glanced at Ah-Dai, and after seeing the fat boss, Ah-Dai returned to the silly way he was when she first met. It seems that he is still mad at himself! It's stingy. That cold feeling was too uncomfortable. If you want him to be a follower of himself, it seems that he has to be bribed.

　　 Thinking of this, Xuanyue stretched out a finger to the fat boss and said, "I want a thousand steamed buns."

　　 Dumb and the fat boss looked at Xuan Yue in surprise at the same time. The fat boss almost fell to the ground with soft feet, and said silently: "What? A thousand steamed buns."

　　 Xuanyue looked at them in surprise, and said with a smile: "Yes! One thousand, and tonight. In this way, even if he eats ten a day, it will be enough for more than three months."

　　 The fat boss became a little stuttered because of surprise, and he trembled: "But, but, one thousand, one thousand buns, how do you get them!"

Xuan Yue said mysteriously: "Then you just leave it alone, you just have to prepare a thousand buns for us, and I will give you money. Dumb, let's go and buy something else." He took out an amethyst coin and threw it to the boss next to him, pulling Dumb's sleeve and leaving.

　　 Dumb is also very curious, how can a thousand steamed buns add up to two or three hundred catties. Although he doesn't care about the weight, he can't take a big bag of steamed buns to explore. But he didn't ask. He knew that even if he asked Xuan Yue, he might not answer him. Anyway, if the steamed buns are made, he will know.

　　 Behind them is the fat boss with a wry smile. He said to himself: "A thousand steamed buns, even if I fight my life, I can't finish it all night!"

After leaving the steamed bun shop, Xuanyue started a big purchase, focusing mainly on food, and also bought some clothes for Ah-Dai and herself. Naturally, these things came to Ah-Dai's hands. Xuan Yue felt fresh when she saw everything. She must be bought, but she must be seen. She appeared in almost all the shops in the small town, and it didn't end until the evening. At this time, Ah-Dai was already covered with all kinds of objects. Just as they were about to return to the steamed bun shop, they were stopped by a group of people. It was an empty street with few people passing by.

This is a group of warriors with light armor. They are not very old. They look like they are about 20. They are uniformly dressed. On their chests, they all have mercenary badges. Three of them are silver mercenary badges. The strength of their second-level mercenaries The most conspicuous is one of the female mercenaries. She is wearing a brown Pique, with long fiery red hair draped behind her. She has a very beautiful appearance, and her brows are heroic and she carries a light-colored long bow on her back. Shining with silver metallic luster, he was obviously an archer. Her enchanting eyes flowed, and fell on Dui's body.

　　 was stopped in front of her, but Xuan Yue was not surprised at all, she hid beside Dumb, and said, "They seem to have no good intentions, it's up to you."

　　 Dumb nodded slightly, took a few steps forward, and said politely: "Excuse me, what's the matter with you?"

A second-level mercenary headed by the mercenaries stepped forward. Among the mercenaries, he was the only one wearing silver light armor. He was the leader of them. He smiled and said, "Mr. Mage, hello, we I'm a member of the Yuehen Mercenary Group, and I am the leader of the Yuehen Mercenary Group. These are my good brothers. We didn't have any malice in stopping you, we just wanted to seek cooperation."

　　 dumbfounded, and said: "Seek cooperation?"

Yuehen nodded and said, "Yes, we have all seen the process of taking over the task in the mercenary union just now. We are also very interested in that super magic crystal. I don't know if we can cooperate with your mercenary group. , Let's go to the Death Mountain adventure together?"

　　 Hearing that it was not a robbery, Xuanyue ran over and stood in front of Ah'Dai, and said, "Want to cooperate with us? What do you want?"

Yuehen smiled slightly and said, "Miss Mage, you have also seen that we are a group of young people. We have heard what you say in the trade union. We are not for money, just to explore, only like the Death Mountain. Such a place is worth our visit. If you get a lot of superb magic crystals, I hope to divide us a little, it will be enough. After all, the task is for you to take. If it were not for you, we would really not be brave It."

Xuanyue blinked her eyes and thought, since Karui said that the Death Mountain Range is very dangerous, it seems that it is not a lie. If this group of people can go together, the probability of success will be much higher, and there will be more people. The other party is also young, so that's good. Nodded and said, "Well, you can go, but you must listen to me on the road, and you can't be the master."

　　 The red-haired girl walked to Yuehen's side and said, "Well, you are only two, we are so many, we are not a mercenary group, why should we listen to you."

　　 Xuanyue snorted and said: "I don't care, I have to listen to me, don't forget, I am a magician, a light magician. Moreover, only I can distinguish the best magic crystal."

The moon mark froze, and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes. The preciousness of the light magician does not lie in how strong his attack power is. The most important thing is that he can use recovery and auxiliary magic on the team members. In this case, A lot of casualties could be avoided, Yuehen nodded and said: "In that case, we agreed. Little girl, who made you talk more."

　　 The red-haired girl snorted slowly and said: "Listen to her voice, I am afraid it is not as big as I am, let her direct me, I will not accept it. Unless she can win, I will do it."

When Xuan Yue was afraid of the challenge, she coldly snorted: "Don't accept it? Okay! Then I will accept your challenge. What if I am not older than you, will I be older and more capable?" As she said, she teased. Putting up their cloaks, when the mercenaries saw Xuan Yue's peerless appearance, several people involuntarily exclaimed, and the gorgeousness of the red-haired girl was immediately compared.

Dumb put the things on his body aside, lowered his head, and said to Xuanyue: "Miss, let me come." Even if Dumb is stupid, he also knows that the archer is the magician's nightmare. Since he has agreed to the cardinal, Xuan Yue must not be injured again.

　　 Xuanyue didn't appreciate her, she glanced at the red-haired girl with disdain, and said, "No, deal with her, I'll do it myself." After speaking, she raised the magic wand in her hand.

　　 Yuehen also wanted to see why this girl who seemed to be only a teenager was certified by a high-level magician, so she nodded to her sister and said in a low voice: "Don't hurt her."

　　 The red-haired girl gave a noncommittal graciousness, took off the longbow, and like magic, a silver long arrow had been placed on the bow. The rest of the mercenaries withdrew more than a dozen steps, leaving open space for them, and the red-haired girl drew a bow at the full moon, and said: "Little sister, don't say I bully you. My wind-killing arrow has demon-breaking properties. Remember. I live by my name, and my name is Yue Ji." As soon as the voice fell, the silver arrow shot out and turned into a phantom, striding over a distance of less than thirty steps to Xuan Yue like lightning. Yue Ji’s arrow technique is already well-known in the mercenary world, and can no longer be described with accuracy. The purpose of her arrow is to shoot off a piece of Xuan Yue’s clothes, to embarrass the little girl in front of him who is more beautiful than herself. That's it.

　　 At such a close distance, it was unfair for the magician to compete with the archer. The magician needed time to chant, but this sudden arrow did not give Xuan Yue any time.

Xuan Yue pushed away the dumb who wanted to make a move. With a light wave of the magic wand in her hand, a bright light suddenly appeared at the moment when the silver arrow was about to come. When everyone recovered their vision, she found that Yue Ji’s body had been damaged. The light curtain was completely covered, except for Dumb, no one could see what was going on.

　　 Even if I saw it, I couldn't understand. Just now, when the silver arrow reached Xuan Yue’s body, she seemed to say a word lowly, and her whole body was immediately enveloped by brilliance. The silver arrow, which was known as the demon-breaking attribute, was immediately blocked by the light. Unable to advance, Xuan Yue also took this opportunity to send out a low-level magic to cover Yue Ji in it. What surprised Ah Dui most was that he didn't see Xuan Yue chanting a spell no matter it was defending or attacking.

Xuan Yue said triumphantly: "Who said that the archer must be the guest star of the magician, how about it? Would you like to compare it?" The faint brilliance circulated in front of her, setting off her beautiful face, as if All the members of the Moonscar Mercenary Group were stunned as if the fairy descended to the earth.

After a long while, Yuehen reacted first, walked to the sister's side, glanced at Yue Ji with a blank face, and said to Xuanyue: "Miss Magician, your strength is far beyond our expectations. Death Mountain, I decided that the Moonscar Mercenary Corps would completely obey your orders."

　　 Xuanyue nodded with satisfaction, and said: "That's good, you go back first, see you at Xicheng Gate tomorrow morning, but don't be late. It's out of date. Dumb, let's go."

On the way back to the steamed bun shop, Dui couldn't bear it, and asked, "Miss Xuan Yue, what method did you use to block the arrow." Dui asked himself, if he wanted to crack the ghost-like arrow, he just It is still a question of whether it can be blocked with the Tiangang sword based on feelings. As for using magic, he couldn't even think about it.

　　 Xuanyue pouted: "Are you finally willing to take the initiative to speak to me? That is my secret, I can't tell you."

　　 Dumb touched a nail, and stopped talking nonchalantly.

　　 When the two returned to the steamed bun shop, they were shocked by the scene in front of them. The table was full of steamed buns, and the fat boss was sweating profusely and took out several baskets. Dui hurried over to help.

Putting down the cage, the fat boss gasped and said, "Okay, this should be enough for a thousand steamed buns, only a lot more. This is the result of my asking neighbors for help. I have been busy all afternoon! I want to know now. , How do you plan to take it away? This is close to three hundred catties."

Xuan Yue chuckled and said, "Then you just wait and see, let you see." She closed the store door, stretched out her white tender hand, poked it in from her collar, and grabbed a necklace. It was silver-white, with no gleaming light, and looked extremely ordinary, except that at the end of the necklace, there was a red gem pendant, constantly shining with a faint red light. At this time, it was getting late, and almost all the civilians went home to eat. In order to make these thousand steamed buns, the fat boss deliberately closed business for one day.

Xuan Yue's big eyes closed, and she muttered: "Take the blood of the phoenix as a guide, open the door of time and space." As she sang, the red necklace pendant suddenly shone brightly, a cloud of red light. Covering Xuanyue's body, she suddenly opened her eyes and whispered: "Close--"

The head of the steamed bun on the table heard the call, and flew up one after another, rushing towards Xuanyue. To the surprise of Ah-Dai and the fat boss, the steamed bun disappeared as soon as it touched the red light on Xuanyue's body. Moon looked like a bottomless pit, and after a while, the steamed buns on the table were cleaned.

　　 The fat boss opened his mouth wide, and said foolishly: "This, is this the power of magic? It's too powerful, it's really amazing."

After collecting the buns, Xuanyue did not stop, she also took away all the things she bought during the day. When she wanted to take the baggage of Dui herself, she was dragged tightly by Dui. Why didn't she let it go? But there is Owen's ashes!

　　 The red light on Xuanyue's body receded, and said: "I don't want yours, what are you doing so tightly? How cumbersome it is to hold it! Let me put it in the blood of the phoenix, and it won't save trouble."

　　 dumbfounded and said: "No, this baggage is very important to me, you must wear it next to your body to rest assured. Miss Xuanyue, your magic is so powerful!"

Xuan Yue pouted, and said: "It's stingy. Is my magic very powerful? My father is called amazing. When I reach the level of a great magician in the future, I can open my own space bag without using Phoenix blood. Trouble, all of your buns are in my necklace. When you want to eat, remember to take care of me."

Although Dumb had learned some alchemy from Coris, everything in front of him was beyond his comprehension. How did he know that the most precious thing on Xuan Yue's body was this Phoenix Blood Necklace, used to hold steamed buns, absolutely It's too wronged. Well, the treasure that the Pope gave to Xuan Yue is one of the few artifacts in the Holy See. If it hadn't been for the blood of the phoenix to make an amulet for Xuan Yue, how could Cardinal Xuan Ye be so relieved to let his daughter come out.

　　 Xuanyue murmured: "One copper coin has two steamed buns, one hundred copper coins is two hundred steamed buns, 500 copper coins are one thousand steamed buns, then the amethyst coins I gave you should be enough."

　　 The fat boss was completely stunned by the "magic" just now, and he nodded and said: "Enough is enough, there is more, I will find it for you."

　　 Xuanyue smiled and said: "Seeing you are so hard, you don't need to look for it. I am not as stingy as some people. I am tired and I am looking for a place to sleep." After that, she walked out of the store first.

　　 Dui and the fat boss Yiyi bid farewell before chasing them out. Xuan Yue didn't go far, and slowly strolled in front. He hurried forward and asked, "Miss, where are we going now?"

　　 Xuanyue said: "I have been optimistic about it a long time ago, come with me."

　　 Originally, Duan thought that Xuanyue would definitely find a luxurious hotel to stay in. After all, he was the daughter of the cardinal, and she was so pampered. Unexpectedly, Xuan Yue just took him to an inexpensive and inexpensive restaurant not far from the West City Gate. Although it was not gorgeous, it was very clean. As soon as he walked in, dumb felt comfortable.

Xuan Yue saw the doubt in Ah Du’s heart, and said: "We don’t have much money now. It’s not a short road to Death Mountain. I always have to save some money. If it’s not because I have no money, I I won’t go to the Mage’s Guild for any tests, Mage, isn’t it rare. Go eat something first, I’m hungry.”

　　 opened two rooms, Xuanyue and Dui ate something casually, Xuanyue's appetite was very small, less than one-third of Dui's. After eating, she said nothing and went back to her room to rest.

　　 Dui used his magician Yuefeng of this month to pay for the meal and went to the room next to Xuanyue. After closing the door, he took off his baggage and Tiangang Sword, his whole body lightened, he uttered a breath, sitting on the chair shocked. Shengshengzhenqi's powerful self-healing ability has almost dredged the meridians on his arm. Keig's water treatment technique was so powerful that he didn't even leave any scars. Now, as long as he doesn't use his strength, it doesn't hurt anymore.

　　Although it only took two short days to enter the small town, so many things happened. Dumb felt as if he was living in a dream. He didn't understand what it was like for Xuan Yue. The sweet sleep last night and the deep hurt this morning both stayed firmly in his heart. The tiredness invaded Dui's body. Only then did Dui realize that he should start practicing. Sitting on the bed cross-legged, urging the vitality of life that had just reached the fifth level in his body, removing distracting thoughts, and after a while, he entered the realm of two forgetfulness.

　　 Next door to Dumb, Xuanyue turned over and fell over. She just couldn't sleep, she was obviously very sleepy, but when she closed her eyes, she would remember what happened in the past two days, and she couldn't sleep in any way. Xuan Yue sat up and snorted: "It's all that stinky dumb, it's okay to mess with me all the time, UU reading www.uukanshu.com hum, the people who get it can't sleep well, see how I fix him in the future." Here, she suddenly remembered the feeling of waking up from Dumb's arms in the early morning. It was a wonderful feeling of full body comfort. I haven't slept so peacefully for a long time. In the arms of Dumb, that kind of full security is really beautiful. It would be great if I could make dumb into a bed. Thinking of this, Xuan Yue's face couldn't help but flushed. Lying back on the bed, her intense sleepiness gradually overcame her cranky consciousness, Xuan Yue finally fell asleep dimly.

　　 It was late at night, and Dui took a breath, and the white light emitted from his whole body gradually faded. Forty-nine weeks of practice made him feel full of energy. It seems that the blood loss from yesterday morning has been replenished. The liquid vitality in his body seemed to be a little bit more, and the fullness of his dantian filled his whole body with power.

Looking at the sky outside, it seems that there is still a period of time before dawn. It is different when Shengshengjue reaches the fifth stage. It used to run forty-nine weeks, but the sky is brighter, but now it seems to have shortened a lot of time. It seems that skill should have reached a new level.

　　 The night was very dark, and Dui didn't know how long it would take for dawn to arrive. In a dark room, even with his eyesight, he could only see within a few meters. Sleep? But just after meditating, there is no trace of sleepiness, do you think? Yesterday, I saw Xuanyue's magic, and Ah-Dai lost confidence in his own fire and fireball skills, and couldn't even think of contemplation at all.

　　 Suddenly, Dumb thought of the Hades sword tied to his chest, and his whole body was shocked, yes! I have reached the fifth stage of life and death, and I can start to practice the Nine Masters of Mingzi.
