Vol 8 Chapter 733: Exchange meeting started

Soderlor yelled, and at the same time activated the shield on the breastplate, the fighting atmosphere condensed instantly, blocking the fierce flame in front of him.
The soldier next to him was startled. If it wasn't in time to retreat, I am afraid someone would be burned to the ground.
"It's getting stronger, and we may not be stuck with it!"
Nora's voice came from the side. In fact, she didn't need to say that Soderol also felt the terrible energy that was constantly spraying out. This lizard apparently had an unexpected mutation and looked at it forcibly smashed. The mountain wall, it is estimated that it won't be long before this guy can get out of trouble!
Between the flashes of light, Soderolle immediately ordered a retreat.
Thirteen people prepared for this battle for five days, but when giving up, Soderlor didn't hesitate everyone to leave quickly in accordance with the planned evacuation route in advance.
"boom!"
At the epicenter of the ground, everyone saw the purple light that suddenly appeared ...
"Run! Don't look back!"
Fortunately, for the convenience of retreat, all the horses of the army were located 300 meters away. Seeing the signal from Soderol, the three remaining soldiers quickly loosened the reins, allowing these retreating soldiers to move faster. Ride on the horse at speed and evacuate all away quickly.
Their movements were unpleasant. None of the entire team dropped the chain, but they ran three kilometers in five minutes.
In complex terrain, accidents such as broken horse legs are easy to occur. In order to allow the horses to run farther, Soderall controlled the speed of the war horses all the way. But even when they were so far apart, they heard the sound of thunder as they marched. The sound was as if someone was constantly bombarding the valley with spells.
This scene made Soderlor look dignified. He always felt that the change of Coswold Dragon was beyond imagination: Roddy did not say that the other party had the ability to "transform", and after the transformation, he was forced to do so ...
With such doubts, the team finally stopped after traveling for ten kilometers. It was getting late, and Nata was responsible for close-range reconnaissance, and Nora went to a farther range to send a whistle alone. The remaining soldiers set aside regular areas to prepare food for camping. But before Sodroll set up his tent, the stern arrows in the distance let him turn his head sharply.
Five consecutive sounds, the signal of the highest level alarm. Nora then rushed into the camp like a teleport, and said loudly, "That guy is chasing!"
Soderrollton, who originally wanted to fight, changed his face. He didn't expect this monster to run so far. He wanted to order the whole team to prepare for the battle, but he could think of the strange breath emerging from the opponent. He Still holding back the idea, instead letting the whole staff give up the extra heavy weight and immediately retreat!
This decision is more morale. But Soderol is not timid, he and Roddy have faced dragons and tide-like snow monsters, knowing that such monsters can't be played by too many people. What's more, field battles are not city defense battles, they really fought against people and piled up. There are a total of thirteen people on my side. As long as more than four people are killed or injured, the battle can be declared a failure and a monster that can chase more than ten kilometers will let the fleeing soldiers escape?
At this time, everyone could hear the roar suddenly from the distance, and the dark forest was flaming with fire. Knowing that they were in trouble, the soldiers quickly got up and continued to escape into the distance.
"What's going on with this guy ?!"
Riding on horseback, Soderlor asked loudly to Nora, after all, she was the only one in the team to see each other up close.
"The figure has become twice as big and covered with purple fire!"
Nora then uttered a word that gave Soderlor an unusual headache: "It may be 'devilized'!
This team is no stranger to "devilization". When confronted with duplicate monsters before, it also encountered several physically mutated guys. However, for a well-equipped team, this kind of "devil blood" thin creature did not cause any trouble to the team. From body size to strength, it couldn't be compared with the mad Coswold dragon now.
"Cross the river! Cover up the traces!"
This is currently the best way to "anti-track", because rivers or streams will wash away traces and smells left by the team. Fortunately, there was a stream more than ten meters wide not far ahead of the team. At this time it was winter and the water level was much lower than in summer.
When it was dark, the team finally waded across the icy river to the opposite bank. Soderlor didn't dare to stay, and continued to change the direction of travel with the team. Nata and Nora took the team to a high ground in the dark, and the soldiers were free to rest.
However, the cautious Soderlor did not let the team fire, but carefully laid the positions that can be met at any time. The human team is not the top of the food chain in this forest, and no one can say what they will encounter.
Fortunately, the river seemed to finally block the tracking of Coswold Dragon, allowing the team and horses to sleep peacefully all night.
But this luck did not last long. In the early hours of the morning, the five screaming arrows that made Soderlor's face completely gloomy, finally realized at this moment ... that he had caused a really difficult guy.
The soldiers looked over. Sodroll had long established absolute prestige in the long battle. At this moment, any order he made could determine the life and death of this team member.
It's not Sodroll's temperament to just run away, but he's not a fool who blindly charges when his head is hot. Facing the endlessly powerful monster, Soderlor tried to find the right terrain to deal with the nearby landscape in his mind, he immediately gave up the idea, and eventually he chose to continue to escape:
"Go upstream!"
The team continued to travel a certain distance and crossed the river again, using the time the enemy had not yet pursued to create a large trap. The next day, the follower Coswold Dragon was flying into the sky with more than a dozen charged lances in the trap. After being seriously wounded, the monster did not die, let alone retreat, but continued to follow Behind the team ...
As a result, Sodrol, who proved the truth, also made clear the team's future choices: "Return to Elson City!"
November 23.
Camilla, who lives in Elson, was unaware of what happened to Soderlor and others. At this time, she was holding a letter from the southern port, reading the words written by Roddy over and over, and complaining that no one could hear.
"But it's my daughter ... you agree if you agree? Don't ask me ..."
"I don't like Nafy as a pet, do I really treat myself as a father now?"
She pursed her lips slightly, but her cheeks were red with some strange associations. When I raised my head in front of the window, I found that the reflection in the glass was so sharp ...
"What's so nice about being so late ... hate to die."
Camilla put away the stationery. Although she said so, her mood couldn't be better, and her steps towards the stairs were lighter.
"Elsen Magic Exchange" was originally expected to open on the 10th, but because Roddy never heard of his return, Camilla delayed the opening time at the beginning of the month on the grounds of "too many people coming to attend." It wasn't until the 19th that after receiving the message that the returning fleet was found from the port, it was truly announced that the "Magic Communication" was fully opened.
However, because there was no opening speech by Roddie, the mage came from afar to make a lot of comments. The self-proclaimed magic teachers had three people leave the scene directly at the opening scene, and their meaning was obvious: Since Ephta's prime minister did not pay much attention to this "magic exchange meeting", then don't blame me for not giving face.
And these three "rhythmic" wizards also led to a total of more than 20 people leaving the scene. In this case, Camilla had anticipated in advance, so she continued to talk about the main points of future communication without changing the color on the podium. The schedule seems to be unaware of the departure of more than 20 people.
This "pretending not to see" behavior naturally fuels some people's arrogance. That night, the rumors and taunts of rumors and taunts came from the major hotels. It seemed that the "magic exchange meeting" in their mouths had become "Elson's conspiracy", "a gilt farce that wanted to use the reputation of other mages" and "Failing to act pretending to understand" ...
Most mages come here because the "Magic" periodical has a certain credibility in the Karen Kingdom ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Everyone thinks that here is a long journey with real materials. But now I hear these arguments, many people have indeed started to retreat, have they really entered a scam?
Camilla's official explanation for this was "the Prime Minister will return to Elson City and speak at a subsequent exchange meeting due to busy affairs."
At this time, the city of Elson can be called a lively and simple statistics. The number of formal "magicians" from all over the country has reached 173, and 427 "magic apprentices". This does not take into account the other wizards, druids, or admirers of all kinds. If you add them, more than 300 guys with advanced strength are conservative numbers.
Among them, the heavyweight naturally counted six magic teachers who came specially from the east of the kingdom. Four of them are members of the six Magisters in the east of the kingdom. The other two Magisters have never heard of it before, and they are obviously much lower-key. However, regardless of their identity, Camilla is the same because the first project of the "Magic Exchange Meeting" is not "communication", but "display".
This approach is similar to what Roddy did to Houdini at the beginning, but unlike the "Rasiman Mission", many people who came to the "exchange meeting" did not have a "cooperative win-win" attitude. Many want to do a "verification" to see if Elson City is as strong as expected.
