Professor of Magic

Chapter 243 Lesson 125 Powerful Thief
"Isn't this Fapu?" Lin Yuan quickly recognized that one of the screams was Fapu, but the lightning flashed in front of him, so he couldn't see clearly.

Isn't that guy sent to the front to explore the way? How could he conflict with a high-level wind magician?
After the lightning faded, Lin Yuan finally saw the situation ahead.

In front of the caravan, there was standing a man wearing a cyan magician's robe. Even his head and face were covered by the hat that came with the robe, making it difficult to see what he looked like. But look at the few people around him. The guarded look of the mercenary clearly indicated that he had injured Fapu.

"Fap is an idiot, causing trouble everywhere." Lin Yuan cursed secretly, and brought Charles to the front.

To his surprise, although Camby arrived with his men at the first time, he did not clash with the magician as Lin Yuan thought. Instead, he gathered his men and retreated to the caravan.Although his face was full of indignation, he didn't even say a word of protest.

"Captain Canby, this..." Lin Yuan secretly pointed to the magician and asked Canby.

Canby looked at the magician, his face turned blue and white, and after a while he whispered: "He is the magician who injured a few brothers yesterday."

"Oh..." Lin Yuan finally understood.After a long time, the magician had already taught them a lesson yesterday. Of course, they knew that they were not their opponents, so they endured it.

Probably, except for Fapu, the brute, no one else would be so impulsive to go up and get beaten.

Although I don't understand how they met again here, but since Camby endured it, of course Lin Yuan didn't have to force his way. After Charles gave Fapu a treatment, he planned to bring her back to the team.

But Lin Yuan didn't want to find trouble, but the trouble happened to him.

"Hey, black-haired boy over there, are you the magician hired by this caravan?" Just as Lin Yuan was about to leave, the magician suddenly spoke.

Black-haired kid?Lin Yuan frowned and turned around again, taking a look at the man.

On the cyan magic robe, the logo representing the ninth-level magician was pinned in a very conspicuous position, and the decoration in the middle that should have used air masses to represent the attribute of the wind magician was also replaced with a lightning shape.

This guy seems to be afraid that others will not know that he is a ninth-level wind magician.

"What's wrong?" Lin Yuan asked nonchalantly.

The man looked Lin Yuan up and down, and said with disdain: "It's nothing, I just want to tell you that you don't have to worry about protecting this caravan in the future."

"What do you mean?" Lin Yuan was taken aback.

"Because from now on, I'm going to join this caravan. Since I'm here, what do you and those kids do?" The man glanced at the students in Class [-], Grade [-] who were watching behind him, and shook his head. , continued: "You should thank me for letting you not have to go to die again. Seeing that you are all so young, it is a pity to die so early."

"Young?" Lin Yuan couldn't help but smile. Although he couldn't see this man's face, he could tell from his voice that he would never be much older than himself, and now he actually pretended to be old-fashioned. Come on, it's really ridiculous.

For this kind of person, the more you pay attention to him, the more enthusiastic he will be, so Lin Yuan simply ignored him, and just went to the caravan boss to ask about the situation.

It turned out that when the caravan reached the entrance of the Shangpa Mountains, the magician suddenly fell from the sky and claimed to the caravan boss that he would join the caravan and be responsible for protecting them all the way to Fasdi City.At the same time, he also claimed that no commission was required, as long as the caravan provided him with a place to eat, drink and rest.

"Then you believed it?" Lin Yuan looked at the boss in surprise, how could such a shrewd person believe such nonsense so easily.

"I didn't believe it at first." The boss smiled and glanced at the man. "But he later took out the badge of the Blair family, and someone recognized him as Kamen Blair, a genius magician from the Fasdi Duchy. That's why I believed it."

"The Blair family?" Hearing this term, Lin Yuan's eyes suddenly shrank.

According to the information collected by Fasino and Vince, the person Natasha is going to marry is the second son of the Blair family.

This Kamen Blair, I don't know if he has any connection with that guy who is hated by all the students.

"That's right, since you're going to the Fasdi Principality, you must also know about the Blair family." The caravan owner looked at Lin Yuan, seemingly hesitant. "Lin, our caravan has trade relations with the Fass Empire, so we don't want to offend the Blair family. Since he made this request..."

"Needless to say, I understand." Lin Yuan waved his hand and interrupted the boss. Judging from his meaning, he clearly agreed to let this guy join the caravan.She raised her eyebrows and continued, "But you don't intend to let us leave after accepting him?"

"How could it be?" The boss laughed quickly. "There is a sacred mercenary contract, how could I do such a thing, don't worry."

Lin Yuan nodded, ignored the boss and went to talk to that Carmen Blair, and returned to the students with Charles.

Knowing that this guy who appeared out of nowhere belonged to the Blair family, the students also understood the situation, so they didn't ask any more questions.

I don't know how the caravan owner negotiated with Carman Blair. After a while, Kaman got into a carriage in the caravan and stopped showing up. The team continued to move forward as if nothing happened.

Although Fapu and the others were very dissatisfied with Kaman, but the matter had come to this point, they could no longer have any opinions. They could only resign themselves to their fate and continue to perform their duties.

Generally speaking, the seasonal climate on the Farinos continent is roughly the same as the northern hemisphere climate in the original world. At this time, it is the beginning of April, which belongs to the season of spring. Outside the Champa Mountains, the climate has become warmer.But as soon as the caravan entered the Shangpa Mountains, the temperature gradually dropped due to the increase in altitude.Although the cold wind blowing from both sides of the mountain road is not as biting as the north wind in winter, it is indeed a bit chilly.

The students didn't think so much when they set off from the academy, they just carried the simplest luggage with them, so now, except for a few fire magicians, all of them are shivering from the cold.

Lin Yuan looked up at Salas, who was still bright and dazzling in the sky, muttered, and began to give orders.

"Fasino, Lilita, you two go to the front and take turns to open the wind shield. It doesn't have to be too big, it can block the front and prevent the damn wind from rushing in."

Fasno and Lilita agreed to discuss it, and Fasno first summoned a semicircular wind shield about two meters high and five meters wide, which happened to cover the space in front of Lin Yuan, Sha Luo and the students. Block them all.

Now that there was less cold wind blowing, the chill on the students' bodies was dispelled a lot.

"Ms. Lin, you're protecting us like breakfast." Xiu Ni glanced at Feng Shield and said with a smile.

The students laughed at the same time. When Lin Yuan was their teacher last semester, he asked a student to buy breakfast every morning. In order to keep the temperature of the breakfast when he bought it back, the students all learned to use magic on the way back. Protect your breakfast box from getting cold from the wind.

Now that Fasno opened the wind shield so easily and skillfully, it is probably the result of that part of the training.

Only Sha Luo didn't know this tradition in Class [-], Grade [-]. It was a bit baffling, but with Xiu Ni's enthusiastic explanation, she immediately understood the reason.

"Lin, you have a lot of weird ideas." Thinking of the students running back with their breakfast one by one, and carefully protecting them with magic, Shaluo couldn't help but laugh. "It's just a breakfast. You can let the students practice magic. Tell me, is there anything else you can't think of?"

"There are still more." Lin Yuan chuckled.
When Shaluo asked him this question, he remembered the things he read in martial arts novels before.It is said that the monks of Shaolin Temple, whether they eat, sleep, carry water, chop firewood, etc., are all related to their practice. If the students can also reach this level, their strength will not increase rapidly.

"Muru, get out that diluted fireball you made yesterday." Lin Yuan said again.

"Huh?" Mulu was taken aback. "Mr. Lin, do you want to roast us all?"

"Are you delicious?" Lin Yuan gave him a white look. "Just do as I said, but dilute it as much as possible. As for the range..." Lin Yuan waved his arms and gestured. "Just wrap us up." Then he turned to the other students and said, "Before that, everyone should use magic shields to protect themselves, Lilita, you can use wind shields to protect Fasno as well." it is good."

Seeing that the students were all ready, Lin Yuan signaled to Mulu that it was time to start.

Mulu moved his hands, and everyone noticed that the originally cold space around them turned a little reddish, and after a while, the air that was still cool just now became slightly hot, without any coolness.

Lin Yuan looked around and nodded. Mulu really did the biggest dilution this time, and the surrounding space just turned slightly red. If you don't pay attention, you may ignore it.

He raised his right hand, and a small water polo appeared in the palm of his hand.

Everyone's eyes were focused on the water polo. After a while, the water polo remained unchanged, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief and canceled their magic shields one after another.

"That's right, it's really warm. Muru, your fireplace works well, it makes me sleepy." Larch stretched exaggeratedly.

"Stop talking nonsense, this is much better than the fireplace." Vince also said. "The fireplace is too hot to be too close, and only one side is warm when it is farther away. It is impossible to have the same warmth in all directions like now. Ah, it's great!"

The corner of Muru's mouth twitched twice, really wanting to throw a fireball over the heads of these two guys.He was able to achieve perfection for the effect of this magic, but he concentrated all his energy, for fear of making some mistakes. In the end, it fell into the mouths of these two guys and became a "better fireplace"?
"Cough...Larch, Vince, I advise you to say less." Lin Yuan said seriously. "Otherwise, Muru will be unhappy. If you increase the amount by your side, I think we will be able to eat braised Larch and braised Vince in a while."

The faces of Larch and Vince changed, and they immediately realized that the surrounding space was now covered by Muru's fire magic. If he wanted to, he could really do this.

Thinking of seeing Fa Pu burned black all over yesterday, the two of them quickly changed their smiling faces, and leaned close to Mulu to flatter them.

"These two guys." Lin Yuan shook his head with a smile, and then called a few students who were studying wind and fire, and asked them to talk to Fasno and Muru respectively, so that they could learn how to use them best as soon as possible. The two magic so wait to take over their work.

"Ms. Lin, what are we going to do?" Xiu Ni and Fei Li asked.

"You?" Lin Yuan looked at the two students who were studying earth and water magic, as well as the other students who were behind them who were also looking forward to learning these two magics, feeling a little troubled.

In this case, it seems difficult to let the earth magic and water magic play a role in heating.

Use earth magic to make a few walls out to keep out the wind and keep warm?This is on the way of the caravan.

Get some water out of water magic and boil it to keep warm?Not in the sauna.

"You can enjoy it at ease." Seeing the unwilling eyes of the students of the two departments, Lin Yuan smiled, and said again: "It's okay if you don't need you now, and it will be summer in two months. Once the weather When it's hot, you'll be very useful. If you're really in a hurry, why don't you start researching this aspect of magic now?"

Xiu Ni and Fei Li's eyes lit up, they looked at each other, Qi Qi pulled the other students aside and muttered.

After a while, in their small circle, clouds of water vapor and dust floated up.

Seeing the lively discussion among the students, Lin Yuan clapped his hands in satisfaction. Studying magic can focus the students' attention, so that they will not feel cold.

According to the owner of the caravan, it doesn’t even take a day to pass through the Champa Mountains. If everything goes well, they should be able to leave the Champa Mountains again after three o’clock in the afternoon and officially enter the Principality of Fass.

But now it's around ten o'clock in the morning, and it's only five or six hours after calculation. It usually takes an hour to attend any class, just five or six hours, and that's not a flash.

Of course, all these estimates have the premise of "everything goes well"...

"There is a situation!"

The shouts of the mercenaries in front of the caravan woke Lin Yuan up from his contemplation. He raised his head and frowned and looked forward, only to see a group of unknown birds flying around in the valley ahead, obviously disturbed by something up.

"Bandit?" Lin Yuan was stunned.Could it be that my luck is so good that I happened to meet that one-tenth?

While mourning, a person fell beside him, and it was Summer who had just gone out on patrol.

"Mr. Lin, there are about 100 people coming this way. Judging from their appearance, they are probably robbers." Summer panted.

"100 people?" Lin Yuan was a little surprised.According to the information they got in the small town of Kumaro, although there are many robbers in the Shangpa Mountains, they are all in small groups, and each group is at most dozens of people. so much.Could it be that the Shanpa Mountain Bandit Alliance greeted them this time?
When Lin Yuan led the students to the front of the caravan, the robbers had already appeared from the grove in the valley.

Perhaps it was because the caravan's seemingly guarding forces were only Canby and others who had been patrolling around, and they were not taken seriously by the robbers, so they didn't make any surprise attacks at all this time, instead, they did it carelessly and with great fanfare. Just like that, he came to the caravan.

The leader was a big man with a strong body, and the giant sword on his back was two points larger than Fapu's. Seeing that everyone in the caravan was focusing on him, he thrust the giant sword into the ground, He shouted: "Listen to the caravan in front, we are the famous Shangpa Thieves Group. If you want to survive, you should quickly leave all the goods and get out. If you don't want to die, it's easy, just walk up and die."

"Shampa Thieves Group? Why haven't I heard of it before?" Camby walked out of the caravan and said in a deep voice.

His face was a little nervous. He thought that he and these band members were capable enough to meet ordinary bandit bands, but he didn't expect to meet so many bandits this time.

And from the looks of it, I'm afraid there are quite a few good players among these bandits, and the Khan who came out to speak out is probably no worse than Fapu.

"It doesn't matter if you haven't heard of it before, as long as you know it now." The big man glanced up and down at Canby and the few mercenaries behind him. "You are the mercenaries in charge of protecting this caravan, be sensible and get out of here."

"Since I have accepted the mercenary mission, of course I must complete it, otherwise my brothers and I will stop messing around in the future." Camby glanced at Lin Yuan who was at the side, feeling uncertain.Just relying on him and his brothers, it is obvious that they are not opponents of so many people, but this Lin and the group of children he brought don't know how effective they can be.

"Okay, you are indeed a good mercenary. I have also been a mercenary before, and I appreciate your courage. I will give you another chance and take your brothers out of here immediately, otherwise don't blame us."

"Since you have also been a mercenary, you should also know that the mission of a mercenary comes first, and life comes second, so stop talking nonsense." Campby responded.

"Bah!" The big man spat suddenly. "Bullshit missions come first, life comes second. If you put missions first, those bastards who give you money won't take your life seriously. I've seen it through long ago, so I won't continue to be a bird servant. Soldiers."

Lin Yuan glanced at the caravan boss and found that he was embarrassed, so he couldn't help but chuckled. This big man was clearly pointing at the monk and scolding the bald donkey.

"Anyway, the task is the task, come on, what do you want to do?" Camby looked at the big man a little strangely, thinking that this guy is really different from ordinary robbers, and it seems that there are some stories in the past.But now is not a good time to explore his past experience, so he can only draw his sword and prepare to fight.

The big man squinted at Canby for a while, shook his head, pulled out the huge sword on the ground and swung it vigorously, a gust of wind rushed past him.

"Okay, since you're so stubborn, I'll make it happen for you. The two of us duel, and if you win, I'll let you and your brothers go. If you lose..." A sinister smile flashed across the big man's face. "Then let me die!"

After saying this, the big man shouted angrily, and his whole body exploded with dark red grudge.

"Seventh-level fighter!"

The onlookers exclaimed one after another, no matter how much they thought about it, they never thought that there would be seventh-level fighters in this bandit group in a remote mountainous area, which is too unimaginable.

Lin Yuan was also taken aback. When he led the students to register with the mercenary union for the first time, the Carter he met in the Fengxing Mercenary Corps was only a seventh-level fighter. The leader, who is not too big or small, needs to use Garrot, the head of Fengxing Mercenary Corps, to intercede with old man Hawke.

It can be seen from this that a person with the strength of a seventh-level fighter will definitely not be reduced to such a hopeless robber here.

Combined with what the big man said just now, it seems that many things must have happened behind him.

Camby glanced at it, and his face was ashen. Although he had the highest personal force in this mercenary group, he was only a fifth-level fighter, and he was obviously not an opponent of a seventh-level fighter.

"It looks like I'm going to die here today." Camby sighed inwardly, raised his long sword, squatted down, drank heavily, and slashed hard.

"Thorn-"
