Can't Die
Abbott bound Roy's hands and feet with hemp rope, attached a hook to Roy's wrist, and hung it on the rack below the magic sweeper's helm.
While Jones was focused on the battle and had no time to pay attention to them, Benjamin channeled his Magic Power into the Floating Device of the Magic Broom. As the Magic Broom wobbled and rose into the air, the Slave Traders were still unaware that Benjamin was about to slip away.
It wasn't until Benjamin rode his Magic Broom around a large tree and flew away that the Slave Traders realized Benjamin and Abbott had escaped.
At this point, they couldn't care less about Benjamin and Abbott, because Instructor Nora and the Magician Scarlett rushed up at that moment.
Because Benjamin and Abbott left first, Instructor Nora did not see Roy being taken away by Abbott.
All she saw was Sabrina lying unconscious on the ground.
At this point, Instructor Nora was wounded in several places. Her left arm had been stabbed by a Slave Traders, and she could barely lift the shield hanging on her arm.
Miss Scarlett had almost used up all the Magic Scroll she could throw, and her magic power was almost completely depleted.
The two were almost exhausted when they rushed up. The other instructors had been running frantically in the Fifth District and had also exhausted a lot of energy when they got here. Fortunately, Instructor Gru shot Jones through the head with a sword.
The Rebel Army who caught up were again frightened by Instructor Eleanor...
Instructor Virgil tried to rush over and snatch Sabrina back, but was driven back by several desperate Slave Traders.
When the Slave Traders Slave Traders to take Sabrina back, a barrage of arrows rained down, felling all of them.
A dense clatter of hooves approached from afar. Miss Christine and Woods mingled among a group of Elf Warrior. These Elf Warrior riding white horses were the elite of the Seventeenth Silver Pegasus Legion. The Elf Warrior of the Seventeenth Silver Pegasus Legion were renowned for their horse archers. The first volley of arrows fired by these Elf Warrior forced the Slave Traders to retreat.
A group of Elf Warrior emerged from the forest on white horses, each holding a bow and arrows aimed at the Slave Traders ...
One Slave Traders, thinking he was at the back and wanted to escape in the chaos, silently took three steps back. An arrow pierced through the crowd and struck his left leg precisely.
"Put down your weapons, raise your hands above your head, and lie face down on the ground, or you will be killed without mercy!"
The group of Silver Moon Elf Warrior rushed out and shouted loudly.
Not only were dozens of Slave Traders trembling with fear, but even the Rebel Army chasing after the instructors nearly knelt down on the spot...
Miss Christine saw Sabrina lying on the ground, quickly dismounted, and ran towards Sabrina.
A group of Silver Moon Elf Warrior quickly rode after them, fearing that Miss Christine might get hurt.
Instructor Virgil ran to Sabrina and lifted her off Jones's body.
Instructor Nora, Instructor Eleanor, and Woods search for Roy among these Slave Traders...
Instructor Nora roughly grabbed a Slave Traders and asked him, "Where's Roy? The Half-Elf you captured?"
"I... I didn't see it!" the Slave Traders stammered.
Following behind Instructor Nora, Miss Scarlett pulled a magic dagger from her thigh and stabbed it viciously into the Slave Traders's palm.
A scream...
"Where is he?" Magician Scarlett demanded sternly.
"They were taken away by human mages. They have Magic Broom, so they just flew away..." The Slave Traders answered in a trembling voice, his face contorted.
"Damn it."
Instructor Nora threw the Slave Traders to the ground and turned to look at Miss Christine.
An Elf Officer stepped out from behind Miss Christine and said, "I'll handle these Slave Traders."
Instructor Nora said to the other instructors, "We estimate they can't fly far. Let's expand the search area."
He then said to Miss Christine, "Christine, you stay here to take care of Sabrina and cooperate with the Silver Pegasus Legion to deal with these Slave Traders..."
"Instructor Nora, if you need the assistance of our Silver Pegasus Legion's Elf Warrior in the search and rescue operation, we can readily deploy a number of our warriors to your command."
The Elf Officer stepped forward and spoke.
He casually had the Elf Warrior behind him lead over a few warhorses.
The instructors pulled out Stamina Potion from their Magic Pouch, uncorked the bottles, and drank them down in one gulp. Then they mounted their horses and scattered in the direction Roy had disappeared.
The Elf Officer waved his hand again.
Another group of Elf Warrior rushed out of the jungle and followed Instructor Nora and the others into the depths of the jungle.
Throughout the entire ordeal, the Elf Warrior didn't even glance at the trembling Rebel Army soldiers...
The Silver Pegasus Legion Elf Warrior, who were providing reinforcements, gradually arrived at the jungle.
This time, they successfully captured a group of Slave Traders, and the Elf Warrior of the Silver Pegasus Legion escorted Slave Traders to the Negotiation Team's temporary camp.
In the past two days, officials from both the Silver Moon Elf and the Rebel Army have been arguing their points of view, resulting in a stalemate. The air in the Command Post seemed to be filled with sparks, and neither side was willing to give in.
The sudden emergence of so many Slave Traders in the Fifth District of the Rebel Army has finally given the Silver Moon Elf officials a breakthrough.
Subsequently, Earl Griffin, the head of the Negotiation Team, held a two-hour private meeting with Viscountess Yuffilia, the pro-peace representative in the Negotiation Team.
The Negotiation Team has gained the upper hand this time, and the peace talks are likely to proceed as the Silver Moon Elf had anticipated.
By mid-afternoon, the news had spread almost throughout the Rebel Army, causing panic among the Half-Elf, who were all worried that this place would become the second Padesto City.
Upon hearing this news, some Half-Elf hunters lost all remaining attachment to the Rebel Army.
Already lacking food and clothing, and facing pressure from the Silver Moon Elf regular army, now a group of Slave Traders has emerged from the Rebel Army...
Everyone packed their bags and left the Bulwark Village camp.
The Rebel Army Chieftain was so disheartened that he agreed to be tried by the court, only asking for the pardon of the rest of the Rebel Army, but that's another story.
Instructor Nora conducted a net search along the jungle, which continued until dark, but unfortunately, she found no trace of Roy.
Just as Instructor Nora was feeling guilty for her rash actions, Roy was awakened by a gust of cold wind. When he opened his eyes, he saw Abbott groping him. The cold mountain wind made Roy shiver.
Abbott stared with bloodshot eyes and muttered to himself:
"Damn it, he didn't bring the Golden Key with him."
Benjamin sat to the side, seemingly repairing his Magic Broom.
The Magic Broom's levitation capacity was insufficient to support three people for an extended period. Overloading caused the Magic Broom malfunction, but fortunately, it wasn't a major problem, and Benjamin was able to repair it. In addition, he needed to modify the levitation array on the Magic Broom so that it could support three people for a short time.
"Give me a little time, and I have plenty of ways to get him to reveal all his secrets, but not now. Our priority is to escape..." Benjamin said.
Abbott gave up on the body search, wrapped a blanket around himself, looked at the desolate pile of rubble, and above that was a sheer cliff at a ninety-degree angle to the ground. This cliff reached straight into the clouds, and its height was impossible to see. This Griffon Bulwark made him feel a little uneasy.
"It's already very cold here, should we continue flying upwards?"
Benjamin stared intently at the cliff face and said to Abbott, "I've found out everything. Once we cross this mountain range, we'll reach a place that even the Silver Moon Elf haven't been to. We need to hide there for a while until everything calms down and the Pattington Plane teleportation system returns to normal. Then we'll figure out a way to leave from Padesto."
"It's a pity that so many reserve crew members couldn't escape..."
Abbott glanced at Roy again, gave a sinister smile, and said to Roy, "Roy, haven't you always wanted to ask me why I killed Jasper?"
He placed a piece of leather on the gravel, plopped down on the leather cushion, squinted, his eyes filled with a kind of faith, and without the slightest remorse, calmly said to Roy:
"Because I was poor, I was terrified of being poor. Do you know why I worship the Goddess of Freedom? Because being Priest means earning 600 Kole a week, and as long as you become a believer in the Statue of Goddess of Freedom and pray to Goddess every day, you can become Priest. I'm a Half-Elf, and I'll never be able to join the Moon God Temple in this lifetime, but I've always wanted to become a priest. Later I realized that it doesn't really matter whether it's the Goddess of Freedom or the Moon Goddess."
"Now, if I find this treasure, I might never have to worry about money again for the rest of my life. I can go anywhere and live comfortably for the rest of my life. Maybe I can even buy an estate and plant some apple trees, orange trees and such..."
Roy felt half his body was going to go numb from the cold. Lying on the rocks, he felt uncomfortable all over, and his body was getting colder and colder...
"Just tell me! Where's the Golden Key?" Abbott asked Roy coldly.
"It's in my Magic Pouch. High Priest Reed gave me a Magic Pouch, and I put everything I need in it. But I'm not wearing it today," Roy said weakly.
Abbott glanced at Roy but didn't give him an extra blanket just because he was shivering from the cold.
Without saying anything further, he took out a stack of nautical charts from his Magic Pouch; he had now made looking at nautical charts a habit.
Just as Roy was getting drowsy from the cold, he vaguely heard Benjamin say:
"It's finally fixed. Let's go. We don't need to freeze here anymore. Once we fly over the Bulwark Mountain Range, we can shake off those instructors. Hey, Abbott, you're freezing him to death. Weren't you looking for that Golden Key?"
"He won't die. I know Healing Spell. I just want him to calm down..."
"..."
