A Journey of Games and Comics

The drizzle had stopped a few hours ago, while night was gradually closing in.

Of course, the grass and trees soaked by rain cannot ignite the bonfire, but this is not a problem for Miqin. She learned some common sense of walking in the wilderness with the mercenary group, and made her pay attention to putting some commonly used items in the storage space, including Dry firewood. After all, the Blood Wasteland has abundant rain all year round. It is not easy to find dry firewood in the suburbs.

Of course, the existence of the storage space can't be hidden from Amprisa, but it's nothing.Miqin also learned from Akara before that although space spells in this world have almost been lost, although equipment similar to space bags are rare, there are some remnants from hundreds of years of history, most of which are in the hands of some big nobles.

Anyway, I have been mistaken for a noble by many people, so it is not surprising to have an extra storage equipment.

This is indeed the case, watching Miqin take out pieces of wood out of thin air, Anpresa just had a flash of surprise in her eyes, and then it faded away, without even asking a question. [

Spending the night in the wilderness is not a pleasure, the humid environment is easy to breed mosquitoes, and the annoying buzzing sound surrounds the ears non-stop.Resting peacefully in this tinnitus-like noise is a compulsory course for every mercenary.Compared with these mosquitoes, demons are the real danger. You must pay attention to vigil when resting in the wilderness full of demons at night. Regarding this point, the "Marauder's Map" has played a big role. With this sharp weapon, the radius is two kilometers All disturbances in the interior can be predicted in advance, which also improves the safety factor very well.

After using it for a period of time, Miqin has a deeper understanding of the role of such a map. The 'Marauder's Map' can automatically record the topography of all the places she walks, but of course, beyond the effective range of more than 2 kilometers, it can only display topography, and has no effect of detecting life.With this map, I won't get lost in this strange world.

For Mikoto, two kilometers is enough. Under the guidance of this map, the demons hide everywhere, and they can judge whether to fight or flee in advance, and it becomes much easier to spawn monsters.

A pot was set up on the fire, some water was boiled in it, and Meiqin put some tea in a cup to make it boil, after a while the unique fragrance of tea leaves permeated the air.

In the past, Meiqin had a preference for drinking tea, a bit of an old-fashioned hobby, but tea is very good for clearing fat and detoxifying.Naturally, in this world, you can’t find familiar teas such as oolong and Biluochun, but there is no shortage of tea drinks. Miqin was very satisfied with the first taste in the Rogge camp, and spent a few silver coins in the storage space. There are many kinds of tea in the tea.

After walking on the muddy road for a day, even the witch's body was a little tired. A few cups of tea replenished her energy a bit, but the tiredness couldn't be driven away, and one couldn't help but want to have a good night's sleep.Move the bonfire aside, the ground that has been roasted and dried has a warm temperature, and several layers of thick cloth are laid on it. The warm and soft feeling is not worse than that of a hotel. It can also be used in the wilderness. Mikoto is probably the only one who is so particular about it.

The two were assigned to watch the night before and after. Meiqin had carefully checked the Marauder's map before, and there were no demons within a two-kilometer range.

Mikoto's questioning voice was very soft, and was not heard by Ampresa who was arranging the bonfire, but the abnormal commotion from the grassland quickly attracted the attention of the mercenary girl.

"Master Mikoto?" An Prisa set her bow and arrow carefully, and cast her eyes on Mikoto.And Miqin also became vigilant. She pulled out a flying knife and held it in her hand, but after thinking for a while, she put away the flying knife and replaced it with the Eagle Orb. Obviously, she was a little afraid of the visitor—this was definitely not The treatment that zombies or bristly rats can get.

In fact, Mikoto is not clear about the identity of the visitor. Every dot on the Marauder's Map is marked with a name. According to Mikoto's previous understanding, the black dots represent human beings of her own side, while the red dots represent her own humans. 』The small dots mean the enemy demons.But at this time, the small dot approaching on the map was neither black nor red, but a strange lavender. Because it was the first time she came into contact with such a situation, Mikoto couldn't distinguish the purple color for a while. What do the little dots of "color" mean.

Maybe it was attracted by the bonfire. From the map, it can be seen that the other party is approaching in a straight line, and the speed is much faster than the zombies.Miqin winked at Amprisa, and the two quietly left the bonfire to hide. With the Marauder's Map, the trump card item, the positions of the bright and dark sides were quietly reversed.

It didn't take long for the two of them to wait, and the distance of two kilometers was only a few minutes.There was a slight rustling sound, and the figure on the muddy grass gradually approached. By the light of the fire, Miqin found that it was not a demon, but a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old.The slender face is paired with delicate skin, and the lavender long hair over the shoulders is very soft. If it weren't for Mikoto's keen eyesight to detect the other party's Adam's apple and the sharp eyes that are definitely not feminine, perhaps she would not dare to say The gender of the other party.

"Oh?" Looking at the empty bonfire, the man let out a momentary surprise, and then he glanced around and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "It seems that I'm being rude, it's really presumptuous to visit suddenly."

The wild grass swayed in the wind, Miqin came out from behind the bushes, followed by Amprisa.However, although she took the initiative to walk out, Miqin did not relax her vigilance at this time, and she held the Eagle Orb tightly in her hand. The reason why she did not continue to hide was not only because she found out that the other party was human, but also because Miqin noticed from the man's sight When the other party has noticed him, there is no point in hiding.

"who are you?"

Compared to the politeness in the man's tone, Mikoto was very blunt, but obviously the man didn't care.

"May the great eye protect you, my name is Sainz, two noble ladies."

When the man announced her name, Miqin raised her eyebrows strangely, but this subtle movement was not noticed by others. Compared with it, Amprisa nodded politely, "Thank you, Mr. Sainz, I am Ampresa from the mercenary corps at Rogge Camp, are you the priest of the Blind Sisters Order?"

The phrase "may the great eye protect you" is the blessing of the Blind Sisters, and of course Ampresa is no stranger to it. After all, the Blind Sisters are the largest religion in the world. This prayer can be said to be unknown. , the other party who would greet in this way is undoubtedly a member of the church. [

Knowing the identity of the other party, Ampresa naturally relaxed a lot. In fact, as long as they are not demons, mercenaries will usually take care of each other when they meet in the wild, not to mention being members of the church. The status of religion in China is always more lofty.However, nuns account for the majority of the blind nuns, and male priests are still rare. They are more responsible for the role of armed guards and destroying demons, which makes Ampli Sha was somewhat curious about the other party's identity.

And Miqin at the side hesitated for a moment thinking about something, and then put away the Eagle Orb.

"Misaka Mikoto, this is my name... Mr. Sainz"

Not knowing if it was intentional, Mikoto paused when calling the man's name, but this slight pause did not attract the attention of others.

"I'm not a priest," Sainz tidied up the windbreaker that had been blown "disorderly" by the grassland night wind. What was exposed at the hem was a special silver armband. The pattern of the armband was not complicated, but a long handle. Of course, Mikoto didn't know much about the silver moon that was broken by the sword, but Amprisa let out an exclamation.

"Consul! You are the consul of Zakarum!?"

The highest status in the Blind Sisters is undoubtedly the Pope, but after the previous Pope passed away in the battle to wipe out the demon gods many years ago, the Holy Sea of ​​the Pope has been vacant for many years. After all, the selection of the Pope as the spokesperson of the goddess in the world is absolutely It's a child's play, and few people can pass the harsh test. Now it is the four archbishops and the supreme bishop, His Excellency Tok, who are responsible for the entire church.

The consul is an exception. Speaking of it, it is not any class in the church, but its authority is not under the bishop, because its duty is to eliminate heresies and demons that threaten the church from the outside world, or its own corruption and darkness. .

Sainz Zakalam, this name is not unfamiliar to most people, but on the contrary, it is because it is too famous that Ampressa did not immediately think of it after hearing the name Sainz. and Sainz Zakarum correspond together.

"Oh, I can't take the title of 'Your Excellency'." In the church, 'Nixia' is the title of the Pope, and 'Your Excellency' is the title of the highest bishop, and even the four archbishops can only be called' My lord, although the power of the consul is higher than that of the archbishop to a certain extent, his rank is still not comparable to that of the bishop in the religious sequence.

Sainz wasn't restrained by any outsiders, and sat down in front of the fire naturally without waiting for the two girls' greetings. Although he didn't answer directly, his words also confirmed Ann Prissa's guess.

However, his self-assertion did not make Ampresa mind. In fact, the girl was already filled with tension when she realized the identity of the other party. Speaking of which, the other party was a more powerful figure than Akara who was in charge of a Rogge camp.Ampresa had also heard the news that a Templar team in the monastery was wiped out in the icy plain before. This must be the reason why the Sainz Consul appeared here.

Different from Ampresa's nervousness, Mikoto's expression was a little weird from beginning to end. She didn't know much about the blind nuns, but she could understand it from the look of Ampresa, Sainz Sakalan The name Mu seems to be very famous, but what makes Miqin extremely puzzled is that - at this moment, a completely different name is marked on the Marauder's Map!
