God's Chosen Archmage

Chapter 209 Red Rock Village

Not only beat Lao Tzu's woman, but also three at a time!How could Ed be calm after seeing this scene?After throwing a cloud of blue light in the direction of the volcano in the distance, he went straight to the big guy who attacked Nicole and Monica!

He learned a lot from a fall, but this time Ed still chose the Void Slash in a foolish way!The strength of this big man's grudge is indeed not much lower than that of his previous companion, but the key lies in the weapon in his hand, which is indeed a standard long sword!
With a wide blade and a thick back, it would be difficult for Ed to slash, but for this long sword...

"Cho... puff -"

Just listening to the sound, one knew that the weapon in the big man's hand must have been broken.Although the latter hurriedly backed away to avoid the bad luck of being disembowelled.But he forgot that even if the two girls behind him are of low level, the magic effect will never attack such a simple aspect again!

The blue or black light chains bound the big man firmly in an instant.At the same time, a strong wind rushed from behind Ed!This is the big guy who confronted Lisa, no matter whether he knew whether the guy holding the big sword was alive or dead, but when he saw the danger of his companion, he came directly to rescue him!
Surrounding Wei and saving Zhao is indeed a good strategy, but in front of Ed's powerful fist of the sky, the later big man unintentionally became a joke!
"Whoa-"

Together with the light of the binding magic on the opponent, the dagger man was directly split in two by Ed.Originally, when Ed had just changed his breath and was about to find the bad luck to repel the big man, he found that there were six or seven big men in front of him!not good!It was the big man who confronted him first.He rescued his companions from the ice!

The eager Ed didn't even have time to say anything, he picked up Nicole and Monica directly, and rushed towards Mia and Arthur right there.In an instant, together with Lisa who teleported over.The six people directly turned into a cloud of faint blue light and disappeared without a trace.

The man with the big sword bowed his waist and slowly walked over. After observing with a gloomy face for a while, this guy couldn't help but chuckle.

"Okay, as expected of a magician, it's so straightforward..."

"Leader, what should we do next?" Another big man said with an ugly face.

"What else can I do? Collect the body for the second head!"

The big man stared. "Don't forget that our task is to try our best to stop all the people who want to approach Hongyan Village. Since everyone has run away without a trace, where can we find them?"

"That……"

"Then what? Hurry up to the side of the road to see how many buddies we have left! Damn it! Just these few young brats, we're the ones who lost us...Let's go, we won't take this business ..."

While the group of big men were dealing with the aftermath, Ed and the others were also busy dealing with their injuries in a col a few kilometers away from them.

The reason for appearing here is entirely because Ed saved a hand.If he hadn't released his gargoyle in advance, and set the coordinates of the group space jump on the puppet in advance.This time, they really couldn't escape the clutches of the clutches.Arthur lowered his voice and cursed angrily, but that Mia was like a little girl who made a mistake.

"I'm sorry, everyone. It's all my fault, if..."

"How can you be blamed for this? Who would have thought that someone would be here to ambush us?" Ed waved his hand and stopped Mia directly.

"Damn, who are these people? Looking at the style of armor and weapons, they should not be official... Who is it that insists on killing us?"

"Ed, I saw just now that they all have a circular mark on their left waist." Suddenly, Nicole, who had recovered, said.

"Hmm... Look at the shape of the imprint, it should be a circular griffin pattern."

Griffin pattern?Ed couldn't help but ponder. In this Ssangyong Continent, there are no fewer than dozens of organizations or countries that use this animal as a totem.

Excluding the mercenary regiments at the national level, there are no less than a dozen of them marked with this.Could it be that, suddenly, Ed thought of a possibility.They did have the idea of ​​hiring a mercenary group before they came.In the southwestern part of the mainland, there is indeed a group of mercenaries called the Black Griffin that is the most famous.It's just that he really doesn't understand why this group of mercenaries, who are both soldiers and bandits, charge extremely high prices. Why would such a group of people ambush here?
Could it be that Hongyan Village has other secrets?Thinking of this, Ed directly took out a few teleportation props.After giving these things to everyone, he said: "These are space jumping props to go directly back to Merlin College. This off-campus mission may not be as easy as Principal Lukes said. Remember, in case of danger, Don't hold back."

"Ed, you mean we still have to go to that Hongyan Village?"

"Go, why don't you go? Could a few thieves bet on us? Ha! I just want to go and see what's in it!"

Ed's words were powerful, and his face was full of pride. At that moment, his emotion did affect some people, even Arthur, who was most worried about Mia's accident, mustered up his courage. Looking at the girls and at his girlfriend, Arthur couldn't help but sigh in his heart.He wasn't worried that Mia would change his mind, but when he thought of that Wayne who was still struggling to find Ed's advantage of being popular with women, he couldn't help feeling sad for that kid...

Hongyan Village is an inconspicuous small mountain village located in the southwest of Shuanglong Continent.The reason why she has a name is because of the rare active volcano on the continent behind her.But even so, the mountain village, which is rarely visited by outsiders, is still sparsely populated.With a surge of excitement, we finally came to the village in the depression on the waist of the volcano.

All the houses are made of local red volcanic rock.Even the only well in the small village is fenced with rocks of the same color.Just like the mountain road before, here is also a dead silence.

There were no poultry or livestock, and not even a single human figure.Suddenly that Arthur came to the well alone.After observing for a while, he turned his head and shouted to the people behind him.

"Guys, there seems to be something wrong with this well crystal."

Ed couldn't help being curious when he heard it.Among all the elemental magics, apart from the lack of training magic in the thunder system, basically there is always a kind of training magic in every system that has some special effects.

The spiritual power of flame of the fire system is to perceive the changes of the flame to the maximum; the whisper of the wind of the wind system is to detect all the information one wants to know from the sound of the wind; the divine power of the earth of the earth system is to listen to the agitation of the earth.As for the five-level practice magic water wave in the water system, it does have the function of sensing the sound of all aquatic animals and plants, but what does it have to do with this well?

He cares about perception, and sleeps very peacefully, but unfortunately, there are no living things in this water conservancy.Lisa bent down to observe the well for a while, but couldn't help smiling.

"Arthur, is this the abnormality you are talking about? Can you explain to everyone, where is the abnormality in this well?"

"I clearly felt something was wrong here just now, but it seems to be gone now." Arthur blushed and argued hard, but looking at him like that, it seemed that he lacked confidence.

"Arthur is right. There is indeed a problem with the well." Suddenly, Ed, who had been observing the well for a long time, said.The water in the well was naturally fine, but Ed suddenly discovered that there seemed to be some floating rocks on the wall of the well.If you don't look carefully, you can't see the messy palm prints, large and small.

Half an hour later, there was a woman in her 30s and a couple of children in front of everyone.Judging from their attire, the mother and son should be residents of Hongyan Village.And judging by the way they devoured it, they should have been carrying it underground for many days or three years.

"Eat slowly, here, brother, there are..."

After handing some food to the seven or eight-year-old siblings, he turned his gaze to the woman again. "Ma'am, I'm very curious, except for your mother and son, where did everyone else go in the whole village?"

The woman was silent.She passed the food in her hand to her child.He said faintly: "My husband, father, and the people in the village have all entered the interior of the volcano."

"Oh? Can you explain this in more detail?"

Ordinary people in this world have basically no resistance to all kinds of natural forces. Although alchemy can indeed create high-temperature resistant clothing specially designed for ordinary people, but looking at these honest villagers, no one should do that to them. Great effort.

"In our village, some adults who wear the same robes (magicians) as you come here every year. The adults are generous, and the villagers regard entertaining these adults as an extra income for the village... "

Speaking of this, the woman couldn't help but tears welled up in the corners of her eyes. "But half a year ago, that group of adults seemed to have discovered something in the volcano. They began to gather a large number of workers to come here. At first we thought we were lucky, but later, they began to force us into the volcano, Even women, the elderly and children are not spared..."

Ed understood.This is because I found something good and I am afraid that the villagers will leak the secret.But he was also very curious about that kind of thing. "I don't know." The woman wiped her eyes and shook her head.

"Besides me, there are more than a dozen friends and sisters who stayed behind in the village. But yesterday morning... I was terrified. Fortunately, the children in the village were naughty and dug a big hole in the well, so our mother and child survived..."

Apart from the cause and effect of co-authoring, I didn't ask anything.Ed couldn't help thinking depressingly, but at this moment, he found the youngest little boy.Although he was still holding the food, those crystal eyes seemed to want to tell him something.

"My lord brother, everyone in the village is playing hide-and-seek!" The little boy said innocently, but reached out and took out a dark red stone.

"Here, the brother next door gave it to me when he came back. Mom said that if you eat something from someone else, you will be paid. This is my reward."

At first glance, this kind of volcanic rock is no different from ordinary volcanic rock, but on this rock, Ed felt a wave of fire magic power!This is the fire attribute magic stone - flame stone.Although the quality of this piece is very low.But since this kind of thing was found in this volcano.So it is not surprising what happened to the villagers.
