Chapter forty-ninth wave is quiet

After listening to the young businessman's words, Shaoke pursed his lips. Fortunately, because there was white mist blocking it, the other party did not notice: "Do you think you can talk to the mage just because you have money?"

The young businessman was not angry when he heard this, and smiled and said, "Why did this mage kill the mercenary I hired for no reason? I don't think he would offend a mage under normal circumstances."

At this time, a mercenary brought by the young businessman happened to be one of the ones who had gone to carry luggage for the mages, so when he saw the mage standing in the carriage covered in white mist, he quickly recognized it, so he quickly whispered to the merchant about what had happened before.

The merchant frowned slightly, took a step forward, looked at Shaoke and said, "This mage, can you cancel your magic effect? ​​You are actually not polite in this way. Are you taking the opportunity to retaliate against the mercenary who just obeyed the order because of what happened before?"

Shaoke waved impatiently, "You are not qualified to accuse a noble mage, especially a merchant. The mercenary not only shot down my coachman to the ground, but also planned to run into the carriage to attack a mage. I believe that any mage will take action without hesitation when encountering this situation." After that, he took a little burning magic powder from his arms, recited a special spell, and then waved it out to "burn, flame". The magic powder quickly burned in the air. Under the nervous gaze of everyone, it slowly fell on the traces of the burning fire wall at the beginning.

The young businessman shrugged, not caring about the other party's threat, and then said, "Where is your other companion? Can you let her come out and talk to me?" After that, he glanced at the basin-sized fire ball burning on the ground and then said, "The effect formed by using special spells to stimulate magic powder is not a real spell. I guess it is not as powerful as those zero-level spells!"

Shaoke was about to say something, and at this moment, a cavalry came out of the robber cavalry, and after sorting out the somewhat messy leather armor on the horse's back, he performed a formal etiquette: "Dear Master, I would like to forgive you for the inconvenience we have caused to you this time. I will let you... they will lead you and hope you will have a happy journey."

"Do we still need to deliver gold coins?" Shaokodo asked in this way.

The cavalry who came out to talk to him shook his head awkwardly and said, "Dear Master, we definitely don't dare to collect your money, please forgive me." After saying that, he clicked the cavalry behind him and said, "You guys accompany the mage around."

"It's the master" the cavalrymen who were clicked responded and quickly left the line, but they were still hesitant to see the traces of the fire wall in front of them. They still dared not step over without the permission of the mage. Who knows whether the flames formed by the magic powder will fall on them, let alone the mage will throw a big fireball, so that with those who have not exploded fighting spirit, they will either die or be disabled.

Shaoke thought for a little while and planned to let these soldiers come over, the merchant who was standing by interrupted: "Master, these barbaric robbers cannot be believed. They are the most untrustworthy people. I believe they are willing to have two mages as prisoners of war." After that, he stepped back and expressed his compromise.

Shaoko ignored the behavior of the young businessman, waved his hand casually, turned his head to look at the place where the group of caravans and robber cavalry were junction. He saw some scattered caravans walking over under the leadership of the cavalry, and the cavalry did not take the opportunity to surround them, which made Shaoko feel even more relieved.

At this moment, a rider rushed out of the caravan and rushed towards the place quickly. The three parties stared at him carefully. The rider rushed to the young merchant and whispered a few words in his ear. The merchant's face changed suddenly, and with a wave of his hand, he led the man toward the caravan.

The cavalry leader grinned and shouted at the other party's back: "Hehe! Let's see how you escape this time. Your reinforcements have not arrived yet!" After that, he seemed to remember something, and turned to Shaoke and said: "Dear Master, you came up from the northern border! Please leave here quickly, because a battle is about to happen here."

Shaoke asked a cavalry to report to the two carriages behind, and asked them to come and meet him and leave here together. "Are you not afraid of us leaking your news?" As he said that, he also touched the magic powder in his arms.

Facing the mage's questions, the cavalry leader shook his head and said, "Leaked news? Even if it is kept confidential, the other party will ask a high-level mage to solve anything. Besides, we don't need to keep it confidential at all. Haha! I wish you a happy performance." After that, he commanded the remaining cavalry to run towards his team.

The few cavalrymen who stayed carefully led the way in front of the convoy. Shaoko gave the coachmen some silver coins before returning to the carriage.

As soon as the female mage came in, she asked nervously: "Master Xueye, they just let us leave like this, it's really..." After saying that, she shook her head in confusion.

Chief Shaoke breathed a sigh of relief, closed the formation on his robe, and smiled bitterly: "Francis, to be honest, I don't know what the situation is, but I believe that their target is not the money at all, but has other purposes, but what does this matter to us? We are now protected by the Emperor's Division, and the robbers dressed in soldiers do not have the courage to attack us, otherwise the military mage team would not let their leaders go."

The female mage lowered her head and placed her hand on the opponent's knees, lifted the car window beside her and looked back: "The caravans have all dispersed, and the cavalry are probably impatient and are about to launch an attack."

Shaoko closed his eyes and leaned against the carriage and told the driver: "Get faster, don't be afraid of bumps."

The coachman responded. The carriage, which was already a little fast, was faster under the coachman's speed, and slowly surpassed the caravans passing ahead.

After the carriage had been traveling for several miles, the coachman slowly slowed down and then let go of the tension of facing the robbers. However, at this moment, suddenly a burst of rapid sound of horse hooves came from the front. There was a caravan that had passed earlier in front of the road. The other party panickedly directed the convoy to hide towards the side of the road. The coachman also quickly deflected the carriage and went to the side of the road. Perhaps because of his unsafe, he walked to the edge of the woods next to him.

The two mages who were discussing in the car also heard the rapid sound of horse hooves and quickly prepared for the battle. After a while, a black cavalry emerged from the bend in the distance and ran over quickly along the road.

Shaoke just looked at it in a hurry and found that the cavalry was dressed the same as the robbers just now. They were not many, and there were about a hundred people, but they all looked very strong. Shaoke even felt that more than a dozen people from the passing cavalry swept through the window he was watching, which made him feel a little amazed.

"What's wrong, Master Xueye, are these cavalrymen in the same group as the robbers in front?" The female mage relaxed and asked after listening to the cavalry team passing by.

"Well! Their outfits are the same." Shaoko was silent for a moment and then said, "I felt like a dozen people were staying in our carriage just now. Maybe they knew we existed."

The female mage frowned slightly and gently pressed Yin Tang, "Master Xueye, do you think you are a high-level warrior? I heard from the mentors that only warriors above level five can feel the fluctuations of magic around them. In this case, these people can still feel the fluctuations of magic on our bodies. I guess they are still above level five."

Shaoke nodded: "Don't worry! These people don't take us seriously at all. It seems that their target strength is also good. Warriors in the army? What exactly makes them dress up as robbers?" Shaoke frowned. The female mage hesitated for a moment and rubbed him gently with his little hands, but it was exchanged for a sudden hug from the other party, but the female mage quickly broke free.

The journey later returned to normal. There were no large-scale robbers along the way. Only once, a gang of robbers of about forty or fifty people was encountered in a relatively remote place next to the woods. However, after seeing that the target of the robbers was a mage, the group of robbers hurriedly retreated into the woods. With their lack of qualifications and abilities, they robbed those mages who mastered magic!

When Shaoke and his friends arrived at the scheduled destination, the coachman took the mages to the branch opened by their owners again in accordance with the old rules. After the mages were warmly treated here, they did not mind some tricks of the hotel owners with a pretty good service attitude.

After sending the female mage to the room, although Shaoke asked to talk to the other party about some magical issues, the female mage refused, because she was too tired after taking the bus for a long time and hoped to have a good rest. Shaoke reluctantly closed his cloak and went to find the manager of the hotel to inquire about some situations.

After hearing the mage's question, the hotel manager briefly summarized it: "Dear mage, two days ago, someone said that a caravan of the Mist Chamber of Commerce was attacked, but no one spread the consequences. However, the merchants and mercenaries said that many people died in that battle, and the robbers were not real robbers. They were pretended to be soldiers in the imperial capital army. Their goal this time was to hunt a special person in that caravan, and as for whom it was, I could not know." After a brief pause, he continued: "Dear mage, you can reach the imperial capital in just a dozen days. There is also our branch in the imperial capital. I believe that the stewardess there will be happy to entertain you wherever you go."

Shaoke frowned slightly and said, "Will no one care about these things using the soldiers in the army dressed up as bandits and hunting caravans? If they hunt ordinary caravans, then..."

The hotel owner smiled and carefully lit up the young mage in front of him, saying, "Dear Master, you may have learned those mysterious magic for a long time, but you have not understood the real situation." He licked his lips and then said, "Their task is mainly to follow the orders of superiors to hunt down some specific characters, and they are not the boring game between the so-called nobles and the merchants? This habit has been going on for countless years, so everyone is indifferent. It is hard to say that they need to do this that day!"

Shaoke asked the merchant to prepare a wealth of food to deliver. When he was about to leave, Shaoke suddenly remembered something and asked, "Do you know where the library is here?"

The merchant habitually rubbed his hands clean and laughed dryly for a few times, but suddenly realized that there was no ordinary passerby in front of him, but a mage, which was not suitable for him to blackmail the other party. "Dear Master, I am not too far from here. I'll call you a carriage to take you over!"

"Yeah! OK, thank you! We'll come to find you after we have a meal." Shaoke nodded and touched a gold coin and gave it to the merchant, "The food must be rich, and some wine or something."

"Okay, dear master, I'll let the guys prepare immediately." The head of the magistrate carefully placed the gold coins in front of his mouth and blew it. After making a crisp buzzing sound, he put it in his arms with satisfaction and went busy.

When those workers brought the meal under the leadership of the person in charge, Shaoke invited the female wizard to come for lunch.

Ginian-style smoked legs, golden roast chicken, fragrant pear patties, some vegetables placed on large plates, two small buckets of wine, a large stack of sliced ​​bread, and a small jar of honey. These foods were placed on the long dining table in the mage's house in a certain order.

When the female mage saw such a sumptuous lunch, she asked in surprise: "Oh! Master Xueye, are you sure we can eat all these foods?"

Shaoko shook his head, invited the female wizard to take his seat and asked, "Francis, what else do you need? I'm asking the guys to send it. This is what we did for the thrilling moments on the road."

The female mage inspected the dining table and said, "It's time for them to prepare a glass of aperitif. I'll go to the cup of mine." After that, he left his seat and went back to the house to get the glass.

After the female mage came, the person in charge not only brought the aperitif the mage needed, but also brought several glasses of different wines: fennel wine, white bee wine, and light wine with some spices added.

The mages were very satisfied with all this and gave each other a silver coin again. After the guys left, lunch officially began.

Schoko picked up the glass of wine and said, "Francis, toast to your beauty for your beautiful blue eyes and long soft hair!"

The two of them drank with their own thoughts. Although the female mage was a little shy, the topic between them opened up again.
