Chapter 259

"Boss, I suddenly felt a chill behind my back. Where did the air conditioner come from in this hot day?" Fei Yun squatted beside Chen Kai. At this moment, they had taken off their cloaks. Because they were holding the pass order issued by the Sheriff of Fort Kaisala, they didn't have to worry about being arrested as wanted criminals by passing guards. Of course, this does not mean that their wanted orders were eliminated. After all, the Sheriff at most recognized that Chen Kai and others were law-abiding citizens, but they could not eliminate the wanted orders on Chen Kai and the others. Only the Senate or the Imperial Court can do this.

But even so, for Chen Kai and the others, the sheriff has already helped. At least they no longer have to hide in their cloaks in hot weather to avoid the guards on the road, nor have they had to sneak in when they see the guards, for fear of being caught by the other party.

"Don't say I feel a chill behind my back, everyone should be careful. I always feel that someone has targeted us after entering Kaisala Fort. Now we are about to reach the imperial capital. We must not capsize at this critical moment." Chen Kai shrank his neck. He always felt that he was uneasy, as if there were always eyes staring at him behind his back.

"I know." Others answered Chen Kai's words in a weak voice, because they were almost sunburned. Even when they were sitting in the carriage with ice, they still felt a wave of heat coming, let alone the person sitting outside the carriage. Chen Kai had a big straw hat on his forehead. The hat looked very much like the big Mexico hat in reality, but the shadow created by the hat could not withstand the sun exposure.

Chen Kai looked helplessly at the undulating wheat ears beside him. As the most important granary of the empire, the entire Golden Plain produced enough food in a year to maintain the needs of nearly half of the empire's population for two years. But this is just a statistics on the data. Although the undulating wheat waves look so vast, as if they are a golden ocean, most of the food here will not be included in the empire's warehouses but will be sold to merchants to take to other places.

As for where merchants will transport grain to sell, they are naturally those places where they offer high prices to buy grain, or where precious items can be exchanged for grain. However, these grains will definitely not flow into the hands of poor people who cannot even make up their food and clothing. Therefore, many times, the poor's disgust towards merchants comes from this.

Of course, this cannot be entirely blamed on the greed of merchants. If there were no great nobles who were catching the land and waiting to exchange gold coins, the merchants would not have the chance to get the food. Since they spent money to get the food, they would be even less likely to sell the food to the poor. However, these things have nothing to do with the players. They are just travelers in the game. Although they have joined the game and are deeply involved, they are actually out of the matter.

However, for this vast wheat field, many novice players are very looking forward to the wheat in the wheat field ripening as soon as possible. After all, villages in various regions have posted tasks. You can get 10 silver coins and one kilogram of flour by harvesting one acre of wheat. Although the flour is fresh flour, for novice players who only have a few silver coins to base in their backpacks, they will do it even if they only have ten silver coins.

You should know that in addition to these things, you can get a free sickle after harvesting ten acres of wheat fields. The huge sickle is the best attack weapon for beginners. Of course, the premise is that these players can use it proficiently. You should know that this sickle specially used to harvest wheat is very large and it is difficult to swing. However, in order to easily be grinded and made extremely sharp. Most sickles have a minimum sharp value of 2 points. If you are lucky enough to meet a well-made sickle, you will have the chance to get a 3-point sharp weapon at the novice stage.

However, this kind of sickle is very rare. When the tens of thousands of novice players harvested Winter Wheat, only two of them obtained a sickle with a sharp value of more than 3 points, which shows how low the probability is. However, this sickle is not very useful to Chen Kai and the others, and it is still the kind of one who can hide as far as they are. After all, looking at the huge sickle, Chen Kai and the others thought of the God of Death summoning that almost killed their lives.

Chen Kai and his group of fifteen people were rushing on the carriage. Even when other merchants drove their carriages into other roads and entered the surrounding cities to rest, Chen Kai and the others were still moving forward. At most, they occasionally stayed in the villages on the side of the road and bought some bread or bacon they needed for daily needs.

However, Chen Kai and the others' behavior was so painful that Corian, who had been looking for opportunities to attack, was almost angry and blushed. After all, if he wanted to steal Chen Kai's things, he would definitely have a chance to approach him. However, Chen Kai and the others did not go to the bustling towns and only bought supplies in the village. You should know that those villages are very vigilant towards outsiders. If Corian entered the village, he would probably be discovered by the villagers in the village before he had the chance to attack.

"Why didn't he go into the city to rest?" Corian hid in a wheat field far away from Chen Kai and the others in an extremely anxious manner. The lush wheat around him made him feel extremely uncomfortable, and the vicious sun made sweat on his forehead constantly dripping. Even Corian, a high-level assassin of level 9, felt extremely uncomfortable in his body, as if he would accidentally get heatstroke.

You know, in order to find an opportunity to attack, he had been chasing behind Chen Kai and the others for 3 days. Even at night, because Chen Kai and the others changed shifts, he had to grit his teeth and chase him behind, and there was no time to rest and sleep. If he hadn't been strong enough, he would have been exhausted in the long run. So now Corian is very resentful of Chen Kai, and he wished he could rush forward and kill Chen Kai.

Of course, if it weren't for fear of the empire's strong control in the Golden Plain, Corian would definitely rush out and kill Chen Kai and the others. For a high-level assassin with a level of 9, killing a dozen or so little guys of fourth-level is no more difficult than crushing an ant. But Corian couldn't do that. Although the Golden Plain was very wide, even if dozens of people died, they would probably not be discovered for decades by looking for a place to bury them. But what made Corian depressed was that Chen Kai was too careful. Every time he passed by a village, he would register with the post officer inside. If he did not appear in the next place, then the sheriffs of other cities could investigate and deal with him.

The most important point is that Corian knew that Chen Kai and the others were all travelers, and even if they died, they would be resurrected in the Temple of Pluto in other cities. At that time, he would be chased by a group of guards, even if he was a thief or a king of killers, he would have to finish playing. So even if Corian held a grudge in his heart, he could only hide in the wheat field and stare at Chen Kai and the others with hatred.

"We must find an opportunity to start, otherwise it will be too late to enter the imperial capital." Looking at the golden light coming from the distant place in the distance, Corian, who came to the imperial capital countless times, knew that it was the divine light that was constantly emitted from the zenith of Xijing. Under this glory, as long as you enter the Golden Plain, you can see the location of the imperial capital, even on a dark night.

"Brother Shui has always felt that there is someone following me these days." Zhou Xuan's words rang out in the team channel, and then the echoes of others came from others.

"Did you just find out? That guy has been with him for three days, wearing a pitch-black robe, as if he was afraid that others would not see him from a distance. I have never seen such a staring like this, so he is simply too good to be good." Fei Yun said with a big laugh. Although he did not see Corian clearly, he used the Hawkeye Telescope to discover the other person several times. But every time he had to observe carefully, Corian would always lie down on the ground and disappear from the camera.

"Okay, don't laugh, everyone pay more attention. That guy hung behind us for three days without rest. It's definitely not an ordinary character. It's probably a very high level, so we should pay more attention and never take advantage of the other party." Chen Kai slapped Fei Yun's head and asked him to keep his attention and restrain him from letting Corian, who was following behind, discover it.

"I know." With this answer, everyone began to prepare slowly. The scrolls that could be used were stuffed into the belt, and the equipment they should wear was worn to save the time when the other party touched them in the middle of the night. Of course, it was limited to those who were sitting in the carriage. Chen Kai and his wife who were driving the carriage should still be like whatever they wanted, without revealing any flaws that Corian behind them noticed.

But no matter how Chen Kai and the others concealed it, Corian finally noticed it. Of course, when he noticed it, his face was almost as green as tea leaves. He never thought that his decades of thieves would be defeated in such an inconspicuous place. He actually forgot to change the illusion crystal of the cloak on his body. As a result, the cloak that was supposed to be able to fit the environment and change the colors remained black. He was wearing this black cloak and chased Chen Kai and the others for four days and three nights.

"These bastards actually hung me behind like a monkey and played for four days. Very good. Tonight I will let you taste the power of my Dark Night Killing." Corian's face was twisted. He blamed Chen Kai and the others for everything. Because Chen Kai and his group made him have an indelible stain on his career as a thief, he had already had the intention to kill in his heart.

"The guy, the boss, hasn't seen anyone for an afternoon. Could it be that he is exhausted?" Fei Yun put away the telescope in his hand and said to Chen Kai. He had been lying on the carriage with his telescope for a whole afternoon. As a result, there were wheat around him, and occasionally a few merchants were passing by in a carriage, but that was also in the evening. The hot weather made many merchants choose to lie down at night, or just rush to the road in the second half of the night and in the morning.

"No, it seems that guy already knows that we have discovered him. I guess I will take action at night and be more energetic and will be confused by me." Chen Kai felt strange at first and felt a little happy, but then he thought about it and became very nervous immediately.

"What? The boss doesn't know? This is the sphere of influence of the imperial capital?" Fei Yun and the others asked in surprise. According to the information they received, a murder incident occurred in the imperial capital. At that time, even if that guy had three heads and six arms, he would not be able to escape the pursuit of the army.

"What can't be it? If you are hung behind and fooled for more than three days, you will be desperate." Chen Kai said with a gloomy face. The more he thought about it, the more likely he was. The man in black behind must be raising his energy to attack them at night.

"..." After hearing Chen Kai's words, everyone felt that this was very likely. A tense atmosphere enveloped everyone's hearts. But soon everyone returned to peace and did whatever they should do. In fact, they were not prepared. If the other party's strength was stronger than them, no matter how much preparation was, it would be useless.

However, although Chen Kai and the others may not be able to beat the man in black behind, they still prepared some things that could surprise each other. For example, more than a dozen explosive bombs tied together can be pulled together in an instant in a critical moment, and then a loud bang will be heard. According to Fei Yun's calculations, the combined power of these explosive bombs can send Chen Kai to the sky three times in an instant.

Of course, Fei Yun didn't know if the power of these explosive bombs could send the man in black behind him to heaven. According to his estimate, as long as the opponent is not particularly strong, he should be able to kill the opponent. No matter how bad he is, he can seriously injure the opponent. Of course, all this is based on the best luck. If he is not lucky, they may not have the chance to use the explosive bomb and will be killed by the opponent.

As time passed, the sky became darker and darker, and the surrounding wheat ears slowly rose and fell in the breeze blowing in the evening, but these breezes could not dispel the shadows in Chen Kai and the others' hearts. Especially when they found that the nearest village was also a few kilometers away, Chen Kai and the others' hearts slowly sank into the water. There is no better place for each other than a place where there is no village in front of the village and the store behind it.

"Here's coming" Fei Yun exclaimed softly, and a dark figure gradually appeared under the dim starlight. He was so quick that he could catch up with Chen Kai and his carriage while walking. The other party just rose and fell and crossed the wheat field more than ten meters, and his body was running at high speed on the wheat ears as if he had no weight. Looking at the other party, Fei Yun suddenly thought of the legendary light skills in the novel.

But then he thought again, it was not right, it was obviously a game in the magic world, how could a martial arts world come out? But later Fei Yun figured it out. He thought that since there was a profession like boxer in the game, why didn’t he have Eastern martial arts skills? And he also guessed that the other party’s ability to run on the wheat ears was not light skills, but might have blessed some kind of magic skills.

However, Fei Yun then had no time to guess what the other party's ability to run on the wheat ears was, because the man in black had already jumped up from the ground like a big bird and rushed towards them. While he was still in the air, dozens of sharp darts had instantly left their hands and greeted Chen Kai and the others.

Corian looked at the dull traveler below and felt a sense of pleasure. He adopted this fighting method that was not in line with the assassin to give Chen Kai and the others an unforgettable blow. He wanted to vent all the afflictions and depressions he had for the past four days. As for the other party who vented, they were naturally the travelers who looked like live fish on the chopping board.

However, Chen Kai and the others were not as weak as Corian imagined. Chen Kai and the others, who were sitting in the carriage at the moment they were covered by darts, had already taken out their shields to protect themselves safely under the shield. At the same time, as the darts landed, the carriage door opened instantly. Several spellcasters instantly threw out the long-prepared spells from the carriage, and Chen Kai and the others instantly jumped out of the carriage and rushed towards Corian. Of course, not everyone rushed out in an instant. At least two dusk knights stayed in the carriage, where they were chanting prayers in a divine manner.

Ragnarok was once a divine art developed when the goddess of Twilight was not yet a god. At the end of the last year, Lady Celia of Twilight established her own temple and recruited a large number of believers. It was at that time that this divine art in the Temple of Twilight was gradually known. At the end of the year, during the war between the gods, the Knights of the Temple of Twilight relied on this divine art to make the three lower gods fall. This also created the reputation of the divine art of Twilight. Unfortunately, after that year, the complete version of this divine art was lost, and the goddess of Twilight Art of Twilight Art herself no longer gave complete divine art.

However, even if the Dusk Knight releases this magical technique, even the Saint-level powerful men will turn around and run away. Of course, the premise of all this is that the Dusk Knight in front of them is a complete knight order. This magical technique that hurts five hundred people and damages one thousand is the only magical technique that players can master to fight over n levels. As long as they have enough time and enough manpower, even the lord players dare to strode their tails.

Of course, so far, no player team has successfully released this magical technique in front of higher monsters or indigenous people. Well, no one who can gather an entire Knights to release it successfully in front of that kind of monster. After all, when you see so many dusk knights standing in front of you, as long as the indigenous people with some experience will turn around and escape in an instant. As for monsters with more obvious perception of danger, they will run faster.

But Corian did not escape, or he did not pay attention to Hulans and the others hiding under the carriage, and he would not even expect that the two dusk knights would hide under the carriage. The first thing Corian did when he fell from the air was to roll up his cloak and use his cloak to resist the attacking spells. At this time, his sight still did not leave Chen Kai's belt, and his purpose was still the emblem on the belt.

Therefore, the moment he landed, Corian rushed towards Chen Kai, and all the people and arrows around him who tried to attack him were dodged by his ghostly body technique. His hand stretched straight to Chen Kai's waist and stretched towards the specially made emblem.

But as his hand was about to touch the emblem, two blood-red lights rushed out from under the carriage, accompanied by these two blood-colored lights, the terrifying and huge prayer chants. At that moment, Corian knew that something was wrong. He forgot the two dusk knights in Chen Kai's team, and the other party had been hiding under the carriage to release the magic.

"Damn it" Corian knew that at this time he could no longer touch the badge on Chen Kai's waist, at least it was no longer important than his life. So he stepped back instantly, his toes were a little on the ground and then floated back like a dead leaf, and two blood-red divine priests attached to his body followed him. At the moment when he was about to come, Corian waved his cloak again, trying to reduce the power of the magic technique with the power of the fighting spirit attached to his head.

However, many Ragnarok is rarely used in battle. After all, the Dusk Knights nowadays will not use this incomplete magic technique in battle that can damage one hundred but hurt the enemy less than fifty. Only players will use this total magic technique regardless of their losses. After all, health value is only data for them. Because of this, the aborigines no longer understand the power of this magic, they only heard the description of this magic technique in legends.

Therefore, when Corian tried to resist the magic technique with his cloak, his eyes widened instantly, and the two blood-red balls of light actually passed through his cloak and penetrated into his body. Then a sense of weakness came from his body. In the eyes of Chen Kai and the others, the man in black who used the cloak to try to resist the magic technique with his cloak actually fell to the ground instantly, and then his blood groove was displayed in front of Chen Kai and the others. Nearly 2,000 health points instantly evaporated from his blood groove for no reason.

This is the power of the magical art of Ragnarok Twilight. Although it is an incomplete version of the magical art, it also directly affects the target's life rather than hurting the other party's **. This is also where the indigenous people who are not in the temple of Twilight don't understand this magical art, and it is precisely because of this Corian's unluckyness.

As the saying goes, taking advantage of his illness to kill him, everyone attacked him after the moment Corian was weak, and the attacks of others except melee personnel hit him very accurately. A large number of scroll spells poured on him like they didn't have money. Although the damage caused was not much and almost minimal, it made Corian extremely embarrassed.

"Damn magic is actually eroding my **. If not, I must find a place to clear out those forces, otherwise I will never enter the holy realm in my life." Corian staggered and wanted to stand up from the ground, but the power of magic is not only destroying his life, but also eroding his power. After all, Hulans and the others used almost 90% of their lives and 99% of their physical fighting spirit and magic to exchange for this attack, which was more powerful than the two of them.

Corian bit his teeth tightly to prevent his weakness from being revealed, and then jumped and rushed towards Chen Kai again. His fist hit Chen Kai's chest hard, sank the strong breastplate, forming a fist-shaped dent. At the same time, the other hand directly grabbed Chen Kai's belt and pulled it hard. A badge cast in gold fell into his hand instantly. After receiving the badge, Corian was happy and randomly stunned. Because he saw a large bundle of explosive bombs appear in front of him, he felt a powerful impact force coming before he could react.

"Boom" accompanied by a loud bang, a small mushroom cloud instantly rose into the air, and the huge impact force knocked several spell casters into the carriage. As for Corian, he ran away with a golden badge all over his body.
