[Western Fantasy] The Master is above

"This...is it really coming out?" Eagle asked Hill next to him in disbelief.

"Well, there is no magic fluctuation around." Hill walked a few steps to the side, bent down to pick up the memory crystal lying in the dead leaves, "It's really a disaster, but it's not completely fruitless."

Igor lost the suppression of the dark magic element, and finally changed his depression a few days ago, and swung his arms and moved his body refreshedly, "What is an innocent disaster?"

"You will know when you are literate."

"..." Igor curled his lips, deciding not to be as knowledgeable as him.

"Then how is your body now?" Although Hill didn't stay in the last holy magic purification circle for too long, but out of the feeling that he had been suppressed by the dark magic element before, Eagle still asked worriedly. A sentence.

"It's okay." Hill raised his hand and stroked his chest, which was still slightly tingling, "it will recover naturally in a few days."

Hearing what Hill said, Eagle felt a little relieved.After a little tidying up, the two decided to leave the woods before making plans.

This woods can also sleep in the ancient practice ground, they also have shadows, okay?

After walking out of this small area of ​​woods, Eagle looked back.The woods still stand there, occasionally you can see a few unrecognizable birds jumping on the branches, so there is no danger of last night.

Sighing, Igor couldn't help sighing, "It seems that the difficulty of that cultivation site should be considered average at that time. Now I really want to see with my own eyes how the various races that used to live on this continent are. How powerful is it?"

"Impossible things, don't bother to think about them." Hill had already changed the robe that was a little damaged due to the fight before, and still habitually pulled up the hood to wrap himself tightly, and stepped forward. go forward.

Igor turned around and glanced at the quiet woods for the last time, tugged on his robe, and followed Hill to turn and leave.

A round white-headed bird on a branch tilted its head and stared at the direction in which the two were leaving.It wasn't until the figures of the two of them could no longer be seen that they flapped their wings and flew away with a huff.

The branches stepped on by the white-headed bird trembled slightly, and finally returned to peace...

After leaving the woods, the direction of the two of them was well corrected.It wasn't until he stepped on the official path again that he was reluctantly relieved.

After the unexpected delay at the ancient practice site, they probably had already missed the time with the Albutt family, but the two were still very careful when they were on their way.

Although the desert area has been left, the surrounding environment has improved a lot, but relatively, the man-made danger has also increased a lot.

The area where the two are now is exactly in the border area between the Enya Empire and the Xikai Empire.Although the environment can also be described as desolate, it is much more relaxed than the barren climate in the desert area before.In addition, it is the only route often taken by many business travelers who need to cross the empire.

Such a place is naturally also the best gathering place for various bandit gangs.

Since they are people who will become robbers, naturally there is no need to have any kind illusions about them.On the contrary, after looting, the vast majority of bandit groups will choose to massacre no matter who the target is, so as to erase the traces of their appearance and the hidden dangers they may leave behind.

Since Hill and Eagle were going to enter and exit such a place, they were naturally cautious along the way.Hill didn't even hide the dark magic aura on his body, and the nightmare was on guard at a distance from the two of them at any time.Once encountering an unknown situation, the two will immediately change direction or find a place to hide.

Fortunately, the nightmare along the way has not been discovered.In other words, the people of the Temple of Light who are most sensitive to undead creatures were not "lucky" to meet them.

Igor yawned and sat down against the rock behind him, while Hill took out their dry food for dinner from the ring one by one.

This is already the third night since the two came out of the woods in the ancient practice site. After they walked out of the woods twice, they checked the time carefully, only to find that it was almost noon.After another two and a half days of traveling, both of them showed a bit of fatigue.

Eagle drooped his eyelids and lazily chewed the hard jerky, and asked Hill beside him, "How much longer do we have to go?"

Hill broke open a large piece of dry bread and handed it to Igor, and replied simply, "About two days, soon."

Because of the special environment here, the two of them didn't even light a bonfire these days.Although the night is colder, the bonfire is always particularly conspicuous in the dark.They were not the kind of caravan that hired a large mercenary group of dozens of people to protect them. If only two people were noticed by the robbers, it would be a matter that could be solved coldly.

Not only can't light a bonfire to keep warm at night, even the place to rest is to find a hidden place a little far away from the official road.To be able to find such a big rock behind him to block the wind like tonight is already considered lucky.

Originally at the cultivation site, Hill and Igor's mental and physical strength were consumed a lot, and they were eroded by the opposing magic elements to varying degrees.

Especially Igor, who has been eroded by the dark magic element for a long time, and forcibly gathered grudge during that period.Although the dark magic essence in the body was purified by the holy element in the end, the two of them kept on going as soon as they came out, and there was no real time for rest and recovery.

Eagle, who is always full of energy, has always looked a little sleepy in the past two days.

And when it comes to being purified by holy magic at the end, Igor always recalls the black shadow in the white light that hit him from time to time.Igor didn't even know if the black shadow was an illusion of his trance, but he always felt inexplicably concerned.

Subconsciously raised his hand and touched the chest hit by the white light at that time, Igor himself felt a little baffled.

"What's wrong? The chest still hurts?" Hill's voice suddenly came from beside him, which interrupted Igor's meditation.

The most direct manifestation of being attacked by the opposing elements is chest tightness or tingling pain.Seeing Eagle's actions, Hill was unavoidably worried.

"Ah, it's okay. It's been so many days, how can it still hurt. It's just a little sleepy."

Seeing that Igor smiled and patted his chest reassuringly, Hill nodded.Seeing that he was really sleepy with the jerky in his mouth, he didn't seem to have any appetite, so he simply threw his blanket to him,

"Sleep if you're sleepy. Make more journey tomorrow, and we'll try to get there early."

Igor didn't hold back, and directly stuffed the jerky back into his ring, dragged Hill's blanket to overlap with his own, and lay down with his epee on his pillow—he was indeed in poor health these two days, and at night It's always better to have an extra blanket to keep out the cold.

For the past few days, Hill has been keeping vigil alone at night, and Eagle had originally suggested that the two of them should keep watch at midnight.But after being dismissed by Hill with a flirtatious look, he never brought up this topic again.For Hill's subtle little considerations, Igor naturally saw clearly, but accepted them calmly.

Iger has always had many friends, but most of them are just casual acquaintances.Hill can be regarded as his first friend of the same age in the true sense.It can be regarded as his first friend who can be completely trusted besides the old man who is the closest relative at home.

For companions who can already entrust life and death, there is no need to worry too much about such small details.

After a while, Eagle's breathing became smooth and regular.Seeing the faint blackness around his eye sockets and the obviously heavier breathing than usual, Hill felt a little anxious.

But the current environment is really not suitable for Iger to rest.Now I can only hurry and leave as soon as possible.It is the most sensible choice to settle down in Enya territory and then cultivate slowly.

Hill sighed, checked the situation of releasing the nightmare again, and then leaned against the rock and closed his eyes to rest.Igor would sleep very deeply now, and his vigilance would be greatly reduced. Under such circumstances, he would naturally not be able to fall back asleep.

Since traveling with Eagle, unconsciously, he has started to worry about his trivial matters and his physical condition.In the past, Hill, apart from himself, the only thing he cared about other people was their life and value.What he is doing now is something that he could not even think about.But the reality is that he handles these things with ease. In the words of the original world, the world is really impermanent.

The night is as dark as ink, and the nightmare is as dark as ink.

Igor always felt that this scene was familiar to him, except that there was no breathless oppression in his chest, the darkness that was so thick that he couldn't dissolve it, and the deep sleep that he couldn't wake up from.It made him feel that he had experienced it somewhere...

"...Egle...Egle...Egle!"

"what!"

Igor sat up suddenly, stretched out his hand to touch the hard ground under him, and then he was relieved, calming down his uncontrollable heartbeat.

"What are you doing..." Hill looked at his companion who was acting strangely when he woke up, and asked expressionlessly.

"Uh..." Iger, who reacted dryly, laughed twice, and explained: "Hey, no, I'll make sure if I encountered some kind of floating swamp again..."

Hill: "...No." The kind of negligence that almost killed both of them, he will never do it again.

"Oh..." Seeing Hill's suddenly serious expression, Igor was stunned for no reason, "Then why did you ask me to get up?"

"Pack up your things," Hill stood up as he spoke, "There is a situation ahead, let's go and see. If there is something, we will go around in another direction as soon as possible."
