Almighty Alchemist

Vol 4 Chapter 1: Ett family

The huge convoy dragged a long trajectory down the country road and continued to extend to the north.

After passing through the mountains of Villas, enter the Maiha Plain.

This is the largest plain area of ​​the Reims Empire. The plains have vertical and horizontal waterways, dense canals, and developed and good water irrigation facilities, which ensure the stable development of the Empire's agriculture.

Spring is the season for sowing. As you walk along, you can often see farmers plowing their fields. The empire's rich crops, in essence and even morphology, are not much different from the world that Xiu Yi once experienced. Even the farming methods have many overlaps, but they are slightly different in some details.

For example, the animals used here are the larger, more powerful hexagonal beasts. They have a huge body, a gentle temper, and even have a large water bladder under the six-horned head. , Can complete the sprinkler work while farming.

As far as work efficiency is concerned, although the feudal era in the magic world does not have scientific and technological products, it has created a feudal civilization that is not inferior to the scientific and technological era through its unique magic culture.

To some extent, it is even worse.

Xiu enjoys sitting in a carriage, watching creatures he has never seen before, and experiencing lifestyles he has never experienced before.

Only at this time will he feel that life is beautiful, interesting and memorable.

Compared with his hellish experience, the plants and trees in front of him made him feel uncomfortable.

"Is the scenery so beautiful?" Lilith complained in her ear.

Sitting in a red velvet wagon, the faint scent of women could be faintly smelled. Compared to the once wild half-elf bandit, Xiu Yi found that Lilith became more and more feminine.

She began to pay attention to dress and fashion.

Just as people have said: There are some things that don't need to be specially taught, and yearning for a better life, so that they are willing to learn and accept.

"Ordinary life is worth envying only when you can't have it." Xiuyi answered with a slightly melancholy voice.

Lilith looked at him with surprise: "Sometimes I'm really curious. What kind of person are you and how can you think that way? Most of the time, you don't look like a teenager, but more like an old-fashioned person. Adults. Can bumpy experiences really change a person so much? "

There was an imperceptible smile on the corner of Xiuyi's mouth: "No, you have to add some talent."

A fast horse outside the carriage ran over. It was Relejeza, the samurai robber's head.

"It's getting dark, and there's an abandoned small village in front of you, so why not stay there tonight."

Xiu nodded. "Go and notify Mrs. Christine."

"Ok."

The team heading for Winlington is composed of the Dardanelles and Christine's Weston. At this moment, Christine is on another carriage.

With Kristin's permission, the carriage headed towards the village and arrived an hour later.

This village does not know how long it has been abandoned. It has been uninhabited for 1m and is barren and covered with weeds. There is a grove to the west, and a few white flowers are popping up in the sparse bushes.

When they came to the village, they discovered that a convoy was already parked here.

That team was small in number and seemed to be coming from another place, but the target direction was the same as that of Xiuyi.

Releyesa came over again: "Is there another team here, do I need to inquire?"

"Let Hording negotiate, he's better at it." I hope it won't be a troublesome figure, Xiuyi thought.

Not long after, Huoding took the battle of civilization and came back from the other team in an elegant step. He came to Xiuyi's carriage, paid homage, fulfilled the rules of the aristocracy, and then whispered. "The convoy coming from the border, claiming to be the Aite family, said it was because of war and took refuge, and decided to move to the country."

"Where are they going?" Xiuyi asked.

"Winington."

"Same way." Xiu muttered, "Who is in charge?"

"A person similar to me, called Dudge. It's funny ..." Hoddin glanced back at the team and said quietly again, "I smell a kind of smell from him."

Similar taste?

Xiu Yi froze slightly.

He knew exactly what he was saying.

It is not the detectives, but the scammers who are best at finding the scammers.

Even if there is no reason, just a few ordinary conversations, they can smell the secret hidden behind the professionally trained smile from each other.

Now, Hoddin found this feeling from the leader of the other party.

what does this mean?

Xiu's brain was spinning quickly, and he whispered, "Is there any decent bandit organization in Maiha Plain?"

"I haven't heard that this is the Empire Granary. It is the most important part of the Empire. There are only scattered scattered bandits, but the bandits that are in the climate are almost invisible. And the plain terrain is not suitable for the bandits to hide.

"Then come in from outside ... no matter what kind of organization, it is impossible for a liar to be the leader. Such a person can be a good assistant, but can never control the overall situation." Xiu Yi said with certainty: "The Dachie you've seen must not be the real head."

"I think so too. There are six carriages in the convoy, one of which has never been out."

"It always comes out, you have to eat it," Xiu Yi said coldly. "Tell my brothers to be careful, don't plant here, but don't take the initiative to cause trouble."

"I will." Hodding nodded and left.

The mysterious convoy in the distance had about seventy to eighty people.

Except for some middle and high-level characters who ride in carriages, most of them are riding on horseback.

These people do not seem to have any vindictive abilities, they are ordinary, but they are ordinary people, but for some reason, Xiuyi feels anxious.

He was wondering, but saw Buckler come over.

"Those people are weird," Buckler said deeply.

"You feel it too?" Xiuyi asked.

"Yes."

"But I'm pretty sure they don't have any vindictiveness on their bodies. You know that low-level and high-level may not see the depth, but high-level and low-level are not so difficult.

"That's why weirdness exists. I can feel a killing smell on them, with a strong **** atmosphere." Buckler said solemnly, "despite their efforts to suppress this atmosphere, I still have a feeling."

"Like Reyesa them?"

"No!" Buckler immediately shook his head. "It's stronger than that, it's not a robber, it's more like a soldier."

Xiu frowned. "A group of soldiers?"

"Perhaps, but the most elite."

"An elite soldier who won't fight?"

"That's why it's weird." Buckler glanced distantly before turning back and saying: "I felt the taste of death, and I felt a kind of trembling in my heart. Maybe they hide well, but the prey has a hunter's Natural vigilance. They are like a group of death gods, terrible harvesters of life. Although they now seem to have no power, my feeling tells me that everyone there has at least harvested on their hands. A hundred lives. "

Buckler's expression was serious and his attitude was serious.

This was the first time Xiu saw such an expression on Buckler, which made him a little surprised.

He lowered his head and thought for a while: "No matter who they are, there is no evidence that they are coming at us. An ordinary encounter does not need to be too nervous. It makes no sense to keep our people away from them. Too much contact, if there is anything that needs negotiation, let Hodin do it. Everyone will start early tomorrow morning, hurry up the road. "

"it is good."

For Xiuyi, all potential troubles should be avoided as much as possible.

He doesn't like meaningless extranodes.

For this reason, he even gave up using scout bees to scout each other. The world is so big and there are so many strange people. Who knows who can see through his scout bees? It is unnecessary if you are in trouble for a meaningless investigation.

Both teams are preparing for a busy sleepover. They are bounded by a piece of bluestone and do not invade each other very well.

I occasionally see each other and give each other a polite smile.

The family's servants soon made all the preparations for sleeping, lit firewood, and set up tents. After completing all this, Xiu Yi got out of the car with Lilith. He followed Buckler, and everything was directed by Buckler and Christine as much as possible.

The opposite team was obviously ready to sleep, and Xiu Yi noticed that four people had come down from the carriage that Hooding pointed to.

The first one is the middle-aged man named Daqi who has communicated with Hording. He is well-dressed, wearing golden glasses like Hodding's face, and has a cute mustache. See, this man and Hoddin seem to be a pair of brothers.

Behind him was a young girl, an old man with a cane, and a middle-aged warrior with a sword.

This is the only Samurai of this Eg family who has publicly appeared as a samurai.

Xiuyi was curious for a while, and couldn't help but look at the warrior a few more times, the warrior seemed to notice something and looked in the direction of Xiuyi. At that moment, Xiuyi's eyes seemed to be pierced by a sharp needle. Quickly turned his head away, and a stormy sea had already formed in his heart.

That samurai is definitely a true strongman!

It's just a pity that with the strength of Xiu Yi, the depth of the other side cannot be seen yet.

As for Buckler, it seems Buckler didn't notice this at all, which means that the opponent is definitely much stronger than Buckler.

The problem is that Xiuyi had no sense of deterrence when he faced Kevin Bears.

Could that warrior be ...

Xiu Yi took a long breath and pressed down the shock of his heart.

— "Interesting ..." The distant warrior glanced at Xiu Yi deeply and muttered softly.

"What's the matter? Lord Bruin?" The man named Darci asked.

"It's nothing, I just found a young man with excellent telepathy, and from his body, I also noticed a sign of fighting."

The girl immediately asked, "How about strength? Which one?"

"The average is the boy standing next to the half-elf girl," Bruin replied.

Although Lilith covered her ears with her long hair, the samurai saw Lilith's bottom at a glance.

The girl looked at Xiuyi with suspicious eyes, as if she noticed something, Xiuyi also looked at the girl.

The eyes of the two were focused at this moment, and Xiu Yi's face showed a polite smile, with a little shyness peculiar to the teenager before turning his head, an embarrassed expression.

The girl was also ashamed, as if caught by someone, bowed her head in embarrassment, but a low, cold voice came out of her mouth: "That young man has problems, so pay more attention."

They had entered the rest camp at this time, leaning against the bonfire to bake the fire to drive out the chill of the night.

The samurai frowned slightly: "It's just that telepathy is better. What problem can it explain?"

The bonfire roasted the girl's face slightly red, and she looked more like a coquettish, and the milk-like delicate skin looked more charming under the light of fire, but the cold tone was like frosty moon and ice wind: "I What is wrong is not that he has cultivated, but the carriage he is in. "

His carriage? A few people didn't understand the meaning of this sentence.

The girl continued: "That convoy had twelve carriages 1 ^ c ^

, Two family crests, indicating that they are from two families, so there are two leader cars, but we see three luxury carriages. The first car was a woman, indicating that she was the leader of one of the families, and the second strong man was the head of the Dardanelle family. The man who had spoken to Dudge just passed by the carriage. The third carriage should be the more important family children, so it is the young men and women. "

"What does this mean?" Dudge asked.

"If you've ever noticed, you will find that all actions and orders issued by this team did not actually come from the first and second carriages, but from the third, that is, the carriage of the teenager."

what? The girl's words surprised everyone.

The girl was very sure: "Yes, that's it. There is a family warrior who has been passing information back and forth between several carriages. The Barnett who just dealt with Daqi just went back to the third carriage. Report the situation. Just before they got off the car, the patriarch of the Dardanelle family would stand by the third carriage and talk to the people inside. Don't you think this is interesting? "

"Hell, is that boy the real leader of those two families?" Dache whispered.

Everyone is convinced of the wisdom of the girl in front of her, and only she can grasp such details and quickly analyze the truth behind the scenes.

I believe that Xiuyi could not think of it, because Reyesa, Hoddin and Buckler passed by their carriages, so that they would be quickly detected by the other party.

On the contrary, the girl with a beautiful face continued coldly: "There are two people in the carriage, so I am not sure who is the real talker, but it seems that the suspicion of that teenager is indeed very big."

"It's interesting, who is that teenager?"

"No matter who he is, it can't be the target we are looking for this time, there is no need to create extra branches." Bruin said coldly.

The rarely-speaking old man suddenly said: "I felt some magical power in that boy."

This sentence surprised everyone.

"Master Bangfield, are you sure?" The girl asked nervously.

"No, I'm not sure." Unexpectedly, the old man shook his head and replied: "Magic is not vindictive, but vindictiveness is generated by internal and external forces. Even if the opponent does not act, you can start with his pace, behavior, and manner. Judgment on performance. But different magic, changes in heaven and earth may produce changes in magical power, a blast of wind blows, it may be caused by magic, or it may be the power of nature. Magic is based on nature, in this way In the circumstances, no one can make a clear judgment. I just felt its existence, but where it came from, it is not clear to me. "

The girl groaned for a moment, and finally made a decision: "Anyway, we need to test this Dardanelle family, and the young man who is not the patriarch but has the status of patriarch."

—I don't know why, Xiu Yi always feels uneasy.

He couldn't say where he came from, but it was like the prey would feel the danger spontaneously when it was caught by the hunter.

What surprised him was that this sense of danger did not come from the mighty and unpredictable warrior.

Xiu Yi was never afraid of the powerful opponents he could see.

However, Xiu Yi couldn't help guarding against a mysterious opponent.

Just a moment ago, when looking at the girl, Xiuyi's heart suddenly beat.

What seems to be the problem?

Xiu stared at the four people sitting around the bonfire and observed carefully.

"No," Xiu suddenly said.

"Is something wrong?" Christine asked with a smile, and she noticed that Xiu Yi had been watching the distant girl: "Or maybe our teenager liked the girl over there? She did look Yes, it looks like a lady show. "

"Everybody's best lady will never hide weapons under her skirt." Xiu Yi said coldly.

This sentence surprised everyone.

Lilith looked to Xiuyi, "You mean ..."

"That's right." Xiu excuses: "That woman has at least three weapons, a long weapon, a short weapon, and a throwable weapon. If you look closely, you will find her walking posture and Lily The silk is very similar. Lilith, maybe you didn't realize it yourself, because you are used to putting weapons on your body, which makes you have a strange posture when walking. When you put a dagger in front of your lower abdomen, your The bending motion will be greatly affected, so that you can only bend your knees and squat. In addition, weapons such as rapiers are usually only tied to the legs. When ladies wear long skirts, in order to avoid soiling the skirt on the ground Swing, you will be accustomed to lifting up the skirt. But you with arms tied to your legs will never do that, because that will expose you. In addition, there is also ... "

Xiu was about to go on, Lilith made a sharp cough.

Xiu Yi immediately realized that this part of the content is not appropriate to say, can only shut up. But everyone already understood what Xiu meant.

"That girl is a close-handed player, even though she makes herself look like an ordinary girl, and in terms of performance ... she is the core soul of this team. She is the real leader." Xiu Yi said very surely .

Invariably, the soul figures in the two teams discovered the secrets of each other at the same time.

The eyes of the two people focused again, this time, but no one flinched again, looking at each other curiously, and staring.

At the same time doubts rose in my heart.

Of course, on the surface, they are distinct from each other and do not invade each other, and after each dinner, they rest and sleep.

The night is a world of little creatures, full of the whimpers of insects and frogs, and occasionally two clear birdsongs across the sky.

The sound of the rushing leaves rubbing against each other and the sound of flowing water also add infinite vitality to the silent night.

Xiu couldn't sleep at this time, he was holding his head and thinking about the previous scene.

The young girl's eyes seemed to have been seen somewhere, giving him a deep sense of vigilance.

Out of instinct, several scout bees buzzed out of his hands, and the crystal ball image reflected the darkness around them.

The wind was blowing, and a clear rustle came.

Xiu frowned, shook the crystal ball, and directed them to continue to dance.

There was something faint in the depths of the dark paint that caught his attention.

After a closer look, his pupils began to dilate.

Then he quickly stepped out of the tent and entered Buckler: "Notice, get ready for battle immediately."! ~!
