Chronicles of Ryan the Wizard

Blair stood on the top of the mountain and looked into the distance. A gust of autumn wind blew the hem of the robe on his body. In fact, it was already late, and the foot of the mountain was hazy. Blair is not here to observe the situation at the foot of the mountain, but to think about the problem.

Since Blair set off with the Mochizuki City Magic Exchange Group, the entire team’s security and vigilance affairs have been solely responsible for the magicians he specially brought from the Mochizuki City Magic Guild. These magicians are divided into two groups, day and night. He maintains a "magic eyes" magic circle. The principle of this magic circle is quite simple. It is to expand one's field of vision through magic and to detect abnormalities around it.

This "magic eyes" magic circle is cleverly made in the carriage of a carriage, so that whether it is walking or resting, the magic circle can be undisturbed. With the strength of these magicians, the exchange group is nearby. They could observe within twenty kilometers that such a long distance was enough for oneself to prepare accordingly before the enemy launched an attack.

Blair was anxious, because according to the predetermined time, Lily, the leader of the Thieves Guild on the side of Senat, should have sent someone to contact Senat, but so far, Blair has not received any news. Now The entire magic exchange group was stationed on the edge of Senat's territory. If Lily had not entered into a non-aggression pact with Senat, then Blair would have to take the entire exchange group and go west to bypass the two mountains, which of course would take more time.

And even if he does sign with Senat, Blair has to guard against Senat’s disadvantages. After all, he now carries almost four-fifths of Mochizuki’s magic power. If Blair’s trip is to attack Senat and seize Serat On the contrary, Blair is not so worried. As long as he protects his own army and sends scouts to prevent sneak attacks, Blair can certainly advance step by step, but now he can only wait passively. Even if he really wants to fight, he can only Senat took action first, lest Mochizuki City fell into an unfavorable situation in diplomacy.

"My lord, it's dark already. Why don't you go back to the carriage and take a break." Just as Blair was speculating about Senat's possible reaction, he heard the voice of an assistant from his side, and Blair slowly turned around. He came and said to his assistant: "Is there no news yet?"

Blair's assistant shook his head and said, "No, it was supposed to be passed by pigeons this afternoon, but now it is six full hours late and there is still no news. Has things changed?"

Although Blair was anxious in his heart, he did not show it at all. Listening to his assistant's hand, Blair laughed and said, "In fact, no matter what the result is, we must be careful in the end. This is why I chose to stay here tonight. Because of the ground, we can't do it first, and the terrain here is dangerous. Although it is easy to be surrounded, as magicians, we are not afraid of this."

"Okay, take it easy, and send my order to let the'Magic Eyes' continue to detect with all their strength. Add scouts to search the nearby area. Don't be careless. After all,'Magic Eyes' are not omnipotent. You can use magic to generate illusions to interfere."

"Yes!"

"Oh, by the way, if Ryan and the others have nothing to do, ask them to come over and chat. I have been busy on the road these days and 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 took the magic exchange group on this trip. In fact, there are only 30 official members in his group, including 3 great magisters, 11 magisters, and 17 senior magicians. In addition to these magics In addition to the division, there are also team leaders and supervisors.

However, there are almost 300 people in this exchange group. This is because every magician with an identity can't be alone, he will inevitably have his own followers.It is well known that magicians take time to cast spells. Young and fledgling magicians naturally have to work hard, but once they become famous, do they have to do everything by themselves?

In order to solve this problem, many famous and powerful magicians have formed their own entourage. This kind of entourage is very similar to that of a knight, and since the magician does not need to be as self-discipline as a knight, the entourage of the magician is of a different kind. More, there are servants who are responsible for the life of the magician, and assistants who take care of various affairs for the magician, and more are guards with good strength. The purpose of these guards is to protect the magician and buy time for the magician to cast spells.

It can be said that the 11 magisters and 3 great magisters of the exchange group this time are equivalent to 14 small mercenary groups uniting to perform a task. This number of people is naturally indispensable, especially Master Blair himself. It also has enough manpower: 20 thieves scouts who are good at inquiring news, 20 warriors who are good at martial arts and wear armor, and 10 shooters with hundreds of shots, and because of Blair's lofty status, his entourage even employs Several priests, plus Blair’s 12 assistants who are all senior wizards, and 8 servants including the groom chef, Blair’s entourage alone accounted for four of the entire exchange group. One part.

After a short while, Ryan walked over with Faras and Flanner.This time Ryan divided the entire mercenary group into two parts. He asked Ellendor to take Colin and Thomas to help Shaina find the whereabouts of Song of Souls, while he took Farath and Flanner to accompany Blair. Back to the imperial capital, so when he heard that Blair was looking for him to chat, Ryan immediately brought his companions over.

Ryan and the others just walked to Blair's side, before they had time to speak, they heard rapid footsteps. Ryan and the others hurriedly stood up, but saw Blair's other assistant hurriedly walked to Blair's side, and then whispered: " My lord, there is a situation!"

Blair made an apologetic gesture to Ryan and the others, and then motioned to his assistant to start reporting. The assistant immediately told the news he had just received: "About 17 kilometers northeast of us, we found a large number of troops. There were about a thousand people, and there was an army in the southwest, 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 a little bit of the nearby map, and found that the two armies happened to block his line of north and south passages. If the Magic Exchange Group wants to go from other directions, it must abandon the carriage and go on the mountain road, and the road is rugged. Inconvenience, maybe it will give the opponent more time to encircle.

"Besides Senat, is there any lord who can mobilize thousands of troops? It seems that Senat is ready to hunt, but sometimes he will be swallowed by the prey if he doesn't know his own strength." Blair whispered: " The terrain here is dangerous. As long as you firmly guard the only passage, you don’t have to worry about the enemy’s attack. Let the scouts shrink a little, be careful not to conflict with each other, after all, they are crowded. In addition, everyone on the mountain eats and rests. Don’t be disturbed. In addition to guarding the up and down passages, the warriors in charge of guarding must also patrol the surrounding cliffs to prevent anyone from sneaking up."

Ryan and the others were standing next to them, and naturally they could hear clearly. After Blair’s assistant left, Ryan immediately took a few steps forward and said to Blair, “I’ll help, too. I shouldn’t hinder you. ."

Blair shook his head and smiled and said, "Haha, dragging your feet? Ryan, you are really humble. You have killed more orcs in Thor Fortress and the Imperial Capital than this number, right? If they attacked in batches and days, maybe you Killed all by one person. But, you are a guest now, how can you let the guest go busy while the host just sits on the sidelines?"

Ryan wanted to say something more, but Blair patted his shoulder vigorously and said, "Don't worry, it's okay. Our magician in Mochizuki City also uses magic, and we also occupy favorable terrain. If you really want to If you help, there is a very important thing now."

"What's the matter?" Ryan asked.

"Play Tarot with me!" Master Blair said with a smile.

As soon as Blair spoke, his assistant who was standing next to him immediately got busy. In a short while, everything was arranged. The table was removed from the carriage. Of course, the four chairs were also, although they were a bit crude. , But it’s not easy on the journey. In addition to these, Master Blair’s servants quickly brought a variety of pastries, cut into small pieces of barbecue, and a dozen kinds of fashionable fruits. He even prepared a glass of wine for Faras and Flanner.

Faras sat down, picked up the crystal wine glass and took a sip, and found that the red bloody syrup was actually the best Bordeaux produced by the Imperial Capital. She scanned the front of Ryan and Blair with her eyes and found that they were only Shimizu, apparently Blair's assistant knew the habits of Ryan and the others very well and handled everything properly.

"You have a good housekeeper." Faras couldn't help but praised, and Blair smiled and said: "Actually, they have been with me for a long time, and they are more familiar with each other. Okay, let’s not say much. Right."

"Okay, we haven't played cards together for a long time, Ryan, we should be happy to play tonight." Falasi picked up the whole set of tarot cards and began to shuffle the cards according to the rules, and Ryan will play against the Senat army. For the time being, his worries were temporarily put down. While waiting for Farras to deal with the cards, Ryan had completely adjusted his mentality. He even joked with Blair: "If you lack a card from the magister, you can take your own Also join in, anyway, you are already a great magister!"
