Blair was standing at the top of the mountain, looking into the distance, and an autumn wind blew past the robes of his robe. In fact, it was very late now, and the foot of the mountain was hazy, so I couldn't see far, but Blair is not here to observe the situation at the foot of the mountain, but to think about the problem. /

Since Blair took the Mochizuki Magic Exchange Group, the security alert of the entire team has been solely responsible for the magicians he brought from the Mochizuki Magic Association. The magicians are divided into two groups, day and night. Maintains a "Magic God Eye" magic array. The principle of this magic array is quite simple, that is, to expand one's field of vision through magic, and to detect surrounding anomalies.
This "Magic God Eye" magic array is skillfully made in the carriage of a carriage, so that whether it is walking or resting, this magic array can be undisturbed, with the strength of these magicians, near the exchange group They can observe within 20 kilometers that such a long distance is enough to prepare themselves before the enemy attacks.
Blair has some anxiety, because according to the predetermined time, Lily, the president of the Thieves Guild who is responsible for making friends with Senat, should have sent someone to contact Senat. But so far, Blair has not got any news, now The entire magic exchange group is stationed on the edge of Senat ’s territory. If Lily did not enter into a non-aggression treaty with Senat, then Blair would have to take the entire exchange group to the west to bypass the two mountains, which would of course take more time.
Even if he really signed with Sennat, Blair would like to guard against Sennat against him. After all, he now carries almost four-fifths of the magical power of Mochizuki City. If Blair's visit is to attack Sennat and seize the In Baker City, Blair did not worry so much. As long as he defended his army and added scouts to prevent being attacked, Blair could certainly advance step by step, but now he can only wait passively. Senat started first, lest Wang Yuecheng fall into a diplomatic disadvantage.
"Sir, it's already dark, it's better to go back to the carriage and take a rest." Just as Blair speculated about the possible reaction of Sennat, the voice of an assistant came from his side, and Blair slowly turned around Come and say to your assistant, "Is there no news yet?"
Blair's assistant shook his head and said, "No, it should have been passed by the pigeons in the afternoon, but it is now six hours late, and there is still no news. Is there something changing?"
Despite the anxiety in Blair ’s heart, he did not show it at all. Hearing his assistant ’s hand, Blair laughed and said,
In fact, no matter what the result is, we must be careful in the end, which is why I chose to camp here tonight. We ca n’t do it first because of the ground, and the terrain here is dangerous. Although it is easy to be enclosed, we are not afraid of this as a magician. "
"Okay, take it easy, let me convey my order, and let the 'Magic God Eye' continue to detect it with full force. You can't be careless if you send a scout to search the nearby area. After all, the 'Magic God Eye' is not a panacea, the same as the other party. You can use magic to generate illusions to interfere. "
"Observe!"
"Oh, by the way, if Ryan and they are okay, ask them to come and chat, and they have been busy rushing these days, and they haven't chatted with them much. After all, they are guests."
"Okay, I'll do it now." Blair's assistant agreed, and ran away quickly to convey the order.
Blair traveled with the magic exchange group this time. In fact, there are a total of 3o formal members in his group. This includes 3 great mages, 11 mages, and 17 senior magicians. In addition to these magic In addition to the division, there are leaders, supervisors and other personnel.
However, the number of this exchange group is almost like 3oo people. This is because every identified magician cannot be alone. He must have his own followers. As we all know, magicians need time to cast spells. Naturally young fledgling magicians naturally have to work hard, but do they have to do everything once they have become famous?
In order to solve this problem, many well-known and powerful magicians have formed their own entourage. This kind of entourage is very similar to the knight ’s servant, and because the magician does not need to be self-discipline like the knight, the entourage of the magician is kind. More, there are servants who are responsible for the magician's daily life, and assistants who take care of various matters for the magician, and more are good guards. The purpose of these guards is to protect the magician and to gain time for the magician to cast spells.
It can be said that this time the 11 magicians and 3 big magicians who traveled in the exchange group are equivalent to 14 small mercenary groups joining together to perform a task. This number is naturally indispensable, especially Master Blair himself, Even more manpower: 2o thieves scouts who are good at exploring the news, 2o warriors who are good at martial arts, armor, and 1o hundred shooters, and because of Blair ’s lofty status, his followers even hired There are several priests, plus Blair ’s 12 assistants who are all senior magicians, and 8 servants, including chefs, and Blair ’s accompanying group alone occupies the entire exchange group. A quarter.
After a while, Ryan walked over with Faras and Flanner. This time Ryan divided the entire mercenary regiment into two parts. He asked Ellendo to take Colin and Thomas to help Shaina find the whereabouts of the song of the soul, while he accompanied Blair with Faras and Flanner. Back to the Imperial City, so when I heard that Blair was chatting with himself, Ryan came with his companion immediately.
Ryan had just walked to Blair's side, and before they could speak, they heard rapid footsteps. Ryan and they hurried away, but saw another Blair's assistant hurried to Blair's side, and then whispered: " Lord, there is a situation! "
Blair made an apologetic gesture to Ryan and then signaled his assistant to start reporting. The assistant immediately said the news he had just received: "About 17 kilometers away from our northeast, we have a large army, There were about a thousand people, and an army appeared in the southwest direction, but there were only a few hundred people. The sky was too dark, and the direction was dense woods. It was not very clear. "
Blair recalled the nearby map for a while, and now the two armies happened to block the passages of his party north and south. If the magic exchange group wants to go from other directions, it must inevitably abandon the carriage and walk the mountain road, and the road is rugged, walking Inconvenience, it may give opponents more time to encircle.
"In addition to Senat, there is no other lord who can mobilize thousands of troops? It seems that Senat is ready to hunt, but sometimes he will be swallowed by his prey without self-control." Blair said in a whisper: " The terrain here is dangerous. As long as you firmly hold the only passage, you do n’t have to worry about the enemy ’s attack. Let the scouts shrink a little, be alert, and do n’t conflict with each other. They are crowded after all. In addition, everyone on the mountain has a local meal and rest Do n’t be disturbed. In addition to guarding the uphill and downhill passages, the warrior responsible for the guards also needs to set off his hands to patrol the surrounding cliffs to prevent them from being climbed up.

Ryan and they were standing next to each other, and naturally heard clearly. After Blair ’s assistant left, Ryan stepped up a few steps and said to Blair: "I will help too. I should not drag you back. . "
Blair shook his head and said with a smile: "Haha, dragging your legs? You are really humble, Ryan. You are more than the number of orcs you killed in the Thor and the emperor? If they attacked in batches and days, maybe you One person will kill them all. However, you are a guest now. How can you keep the guest busy while the host is on the sidelines? "
Ryan wanted to say more, but Blair patted his shoulder vigorously and said, "Relax, it ’s okay. Our magicians in Mochizuki City use magic, and we still occupy favorable terrain. If you really want to If you help, there is now a very important thing. "
"What is it?" Ryan asked.
"Play with me tarot cards!" Master Blair said with a smile.
As soon as Blair spoke, the assistant standing next to him became busy immediately. After a while, everything was set up. The table was removed from the carriage. Of course, the four chairs were, albeit a bit shabby. , But it ’s also not easy on the journey, and besides these, Master Blair ’s servants quickly brought a variety of pastries, as well as cut into small pieces of grilled meat, dozens of fashionable fruits, He even prepared a glass of wine for Faras and Flannard.
Faras sat down, she took a crystal wine glass and tasted it softly. Now that the bright red syrup was actually the best Bordeaux produced by the imperial capital, she glanced in front of Ryan and Blair with her eyes, and now they had only Shimizu, obviously Blair ’s assistant knows the habits of Ryan and others very well and handles everything properly.
"You have a good housekeeper." Farath couldn't help but praise, and Blair said with a smile: "In fact, they have followed me for a long time, they are more familiar, well, no more, let's play cards. . "
"Okay, we haven't played cards for a long time, Ryan, I'm happy to play tonight." Faras picked up the entire set of tarot cards and began to shuffle the cards according to the rules, and Ryan will play against the Senat army Worrying to put it down temporarily, while waiting for the Faras card, Ryan has completely adjusted his mentality. He even joked with Blair: "If you lack a magister card, you can add yourself Come in, anyway, you are a big magician! "
