In the tavern, Lu Yuan quickly drank an oak barrel.

The boss lady was not particularly surprised by the girl's astonishing drinking capacity. Goddess above, this world is a glorious magical civilization with many extraordinary beings, and the noble girl is probably not an ordinary person.

"Boss." Lu Yuan finished eating the food and drinks and wiped the corners of his mouth gracefully:

"I'm looking for someone. He's a young man about my age. He has black eyes, darker than a crow."

When mentioning "Black Eyes", the landlady quickly remembered that there were not many strangers coming to Huimaqi Town, and the boy's features were too obvious.

"Boss, we were traveling companions to take exams at the Imperial Academy of Magic. Something happened on the way and we got separated."

"Miss, that man went to the forest to the east. That is the shortcut to the Imperial Capital." The landlady did not doubt that he was there. In her opinion, it was too normal for a girl to report to a magic academy in such a dress and age.

However, the Imperial Royal Academy of Magic... is really amazing...

"Thank you, boss." Lu Yuan stood up and nodded slightly. After paying, he opened the door and walked into the dark night.

…

"Hoo, ho..."

The boy with pure black eyes hid behind a tree and tried his best to lower his breathing sound.

Eyes of this color are not common in the Landmore area. If a drunk "local" noticed the boy's eye color, he would probably mock him by saying, "The eyes are as black as a bear's."

The man-bear, a monster that stood more than four meters tall, had just been seen by the young man. It was cut in half instantly by the broad sword in the knight's hand, and it didn't even have time to howl.

Then, the boy was chased by the knight and escaped until now.

As we all know, low-level musclemen have a crushing combat advantage over low-level magicians. When the casting speed is slow, the magic power reserves are poor, and there are not enough powerful alchemy tools, the new knight can kill the magic apprentice with one punch.

Instant kill!

What's more, those who were chasing the boy were a standard knight team, consisting of five people, rich in experience, and ruthless characters who had fought on the battlefield.

Moreover... the young man is not even a magic apprentice. He is considered a beginner who knows a little about alchemy.

He couldn't defeat any of them, let alone five of them, so the young man had no intention of resisting at all, and instead burrowed into the forest like a rabbit, hoping to get rid of them under the cover of night.

Unfortunately, the gap in wild survival experience between the two sides was too great, and the young man never succeeded in getting rid of the distance.

"Hoo, ho... Calm down, I have to rest, otherwise I will be exhausted before they catch up." He leaned against the tree trunk, tried his best to soothe his mood, took off his water bag, and took a sip.

"Looking at their family crest, they should belong to the Ye Feiluo family... Is it because of that woman... And the most disgusting thing is that they don't even bother to cover up their family crest!"

The young man thought bitterly, his clear black pupils glowing with anger.

However, no matter how angry he was, there was nothing he could do at this time. After a short rest, he stood up and wanted to continue on his way.

"This forest is connected to Kaique Mountain to the east. After climbing over Kaique Mountain, even if we enter a prosperous area, there is no way that the knights of the Ye Feiluo family will hunt me down openly. After all, the entrance exam for the Royal Academy of Magic is approaching.

, a lot of people are watching.”

The young man gathered his mood, picked up the stick he picked in the forest, and prepared to set off.

Unfortunately, he had just taken two steps when the sound of breaking through the air hit him from behind.

The young man quickly tumbled to the ground and dodged the flying ax in an extremely embarrassed manner. However, he dodged too quickly and a stone on the ground caught his backpack. With a bang, the backpack rolled out and was stepped on by a black boot.

feet.

"Boy, you are very good at running. Did you really grow up in a bakery?" The owner of the black boots was a young knight wearing light armor. He smiled and made a neck-wiping gesture to the young boy:

"Little mouse, you can't run away~"

The sound of footsteps came from all around, and almost instantly, the other four knights also came over.

There is no escape.

The boy unconsciously breathed heavily and kept swallowing. However, even though he was extremely frightened, he straightened his spine and did not beg for mercy.

"Al Xi, don't run away anymore." The one who spoke was the boss of this team of knights. He was a middle-aged man with a goatee and his voice was very calm:

"As a knight, I promise to let you leave without pain and go to the embrace of the Mother Goddess."

A'er Xi's black eyes flashed with anger:

"Huh...Knights? I really didn't know that five big men wearing armor and chasing down civilians with giant swords could also be called knights."

"Acting on the order of the benefactor is also a knight's virtue." The middle-aged knight did not feel any guilt at all:

"And Al Xi, as a commoner, you should not offend the nobles...especially during their engagement ceremony."

"Hey, boss, why are you talking to this little mouse so much? He's going to die anyway." The young knight waved with one finger, and the backpack under his feet was suddenly torn by the strong wind.

Everything inside rolled out.

The young knight chose with disdain:

"Tsk, tsk, aren't these all rubbish... I heard that you, Al Xi, are an alchemy genius who was born into a commoner's family. Hehe, you are a country boy after all and have never seen the world. Are these the products of alchemy? A pile of scrap metal.

"

Al Xi clenched his fists and pursed his lips.

This is not to show weakness, but to look for opportunities.

In the young man's hand, he has been clutching a small ball-shaped object. This is an alchemy tool he made himself, specially used to escape.

This ball was named by him, Tiger's Shadow, Soul-Eating Thunder, Type Zero!

Well, it's actually a smoke bomb.

But Aerxi is very confident in his works. Although most of them are not very good in appearance, his alchemical products are extremely practical, abandoning the gaudy genre, and are very close to the concept of ancient alchemy.

After throwing away the Tiger Blade Shadow Soul-Eating Thunderbolt Type Zero, he immediately ran away. The air nearby was humid, and it seemed that he was not far from the water source... Al Xi thought about the escape route in his mind, and he was more focused than ever.

"Okay, kill him quickly, the body needs to be disposed of." The knight leader said calmly, wanting to end this mission immediately.

"Okay..." The young knight put down his backpack, pulled out his sword, and walked slowly towards Al Xi:

"Little Mouse, don't worry, Owl Head won't feel pain..."

"It's coming...Mother Goddess, please protect me..." A'er Xi's pupils tightened and she clasped the ball, ready to explode at any time.

At the critical moment, murderous intent looms.

However, at this moment, a voice suddenly broke the silence of the late night forest.

"He's right, bullying the weak is not a knight."

The sound was clear and sweet, which was incompatible with the depressing situation at this time.

Everyone looked up and saw a beautiful girl sitting on a tall branch. She was graceful and graceful, her white deerskin boots swaying, and she had the unique mischievousness and romance of her age.

A'er Xi looked at the girl and forgot to throw the bomb and run away at this moment.

He swore that he was a devout believer in the Mother Goddess.

But at this moment, Aer Xi still felt that the girl under the moon was more beautiful than the statue in the sacrificial hall.
