On the Seven Towers

Chapter 888: Searching for the Earl

Several hundred kilometers northwest of Xiao Chen and others, on the mountain outside a small village in the mountains, there were only five people and one prisoner around Selinda.

Since the city of Bavelia has been captured by the Temple of Nature, they can only teleport to a small city called Anlok, but it is still nearly a hundred kilometers away from Sedara Town. Selinda used it forcefully in order to rush for time. The long-distance teleportation scroll was teleported once in the direction where Count Carlos might be.

This kind of long-distance teleportation without corresponding teleportation array is a very dangerous behavior. Because as long as there is a slight deviation in the magic control, you may appear in the mountains or underground, and the result will be death on the spot. However, Selinda's character has always had a lot of adventurous elements. In order to rush for time, she ignored the dissuasion of others and activated this scroll. Fortunately, she was lucky, and the teleportation point was in mid-air.

However, when the transmission ended, a group of more than ten people were exposed to the eyes of a nearby natural temple team.

This force launched an attack on them, and Selinda and others were caught off guard in the air. Two soldiers died under the fire of enemy soldiers before they even landed. Selinda immediately counterattacked in the air. She was accompanied by mostly elite berserker warriors, whose individual combat capabilities were much stronger than the opponent's warriors. After a fierce battle, Selinda's side finally won the battle.

But Selinda also lost half of her men in this encounter before defeating the opponent's team of nearly fifty people. During the battle, she captured a low-ranking enemy knight and found out the direction of Count Carlos' retreat.

It turned out that after Nina's father Holmes left that day, the Earl's team was quickly overtaken by the Knights of the Burning Sun. They had a chase in the town of Sedara. At a great cost, the remnants of the count escaped the pursuit of the Natural Temple and escaped deeper into the mountains. The enemy force Selinda encountered today was the team searching for the Earl nearby. At that time, other teams had already discovered the traces of the Earl and his entourage, and they were outflanking the Earl's hiding place.

Selinda was very lucky. The enemy army she defeated was not far from the count's position. She forced the captive to lead the way. After climbing over two mountains, she saw the small village in front of her. Looking down from the mountain, there are about two hundred soldiers stationed in the village, wearing the armor of the Arias family. This may be the only remaining force of Count Carlos.

Lumiere, the leader of the Berserker Guards, squatted beside Selinda, put his hand on his forehead and looked down. At this time, there were several wounds on his body that had just condensed, and some were even oozing blood. These were all injuries left by the battle just now. But Lumiere didn't care, as if these wounds had no effect on him. After observing for a while, he said: "I saw that guy Battis, and Master Banderas is also there. I guess the Earl is in this village."

"It seems we have finally found a place." Selinda pulled out a dagger from her boot and without hesitation stabbed it into the heart of the captive at the Natural Temple next to her. The prisoner let out a low groan, then fell down, twitched several times, and lost his life.

Lumiere looked at Selinda with admiration. This straightforward and decisive way of doing things was very much like the count's true character. No matter what the count's final outcome is, as long as Miss Selinda can survive with some of the berserkers, there will always be a time when the Arias family will be revived again.

"Now that we have found them, let's go meet them. I also have a long-distance teleportation scroll in my hand. I can take my father away," Selinda said.

"Miss, if the count was willing to leave, he would have retreated with Master Banderas long ago, right?" Lumiere was a very clear-headed person when he was not going crazy. "Since he has been unwilling to use There must be a reason for the teleportation magic to retreat. If there is no teleportation array, just relying on Master Banderas to cast spells or use scrolls should not be able to take away a few people, right? He is a very high-level person, but he can only teleport about ten people. I guess the Earl may not be able to give up on the soldiers who have fought with him until now.”

"Unwilling to give up his companions? Is this really his character?" Selinda asked.

"The Earl is originally a person who attaches great importance to friendship. His ruthlessness and cruelty are directed at his enemies, or he pretends to be like that in order to confuse others. But in reality, he is a person who is very considerate of his subordinates. You Maybe you don’t know that when the count was pretending to be a playboy and secretly building up strength, he solved many personal matters for our subordinates. He solved some family difficulties for some people, avenged the past for some people, and even For some people, why are so many people willing to fight for him? In addition to fighting for his achievements, many people are moved by his sincerity, so if he wants to fight these soldiers to the end, I wouldn’t find it strange at all.”

"I don't care what he thinks, we can't delay it like this now." Selinda's tone was already filled with anger. She glanced at the corpse on the ground and said, "The Natural Temple team we eliminated was just a lot of people. One of the outflanking teams. There must be a large number of enemies approaching here. If we don't find a way to take him away, it will be too late."

Selinda stood up and was about to jump down, but she didn't expect Lumiere beside her to reach out and grab her arm.

Selinda said angrily: "Lumiere, what are you doing? You keep saying how much love my father has, but you are not going to save him. Are you just going to watch him fall into the hands of those guys in the Temple of Nature?"

"Miss, before the Earl sent me to you, he told me very seriously. If he encounters a crisis one day, I must stop you from saving him. Because if he is in danger, you can't do much."

"Arrogant guy." Serinda sneered.

"To the Earl, you are the most important thing in the world. He would never want you to put yourself in danger just to save him." Lumiere's expression was sad and sincere.

"He couldn't control me before, and don't think about doing it now. Let go of your hand, Lumiere, or I will be rude." As she said that, Serinda raised the dagger in her hand and pointed it at Lumiere's chest.

When the two were in a stalemate, someone suddenly shouted: "Miss! Lumiere, squat! The enemy is coming!"
