After running away for several days, Xia Lan and others' physical and mental conditions were approaching to a limit, and the horses under their seats had lost a whole lot. Even if they could continue to persevere, the horses could die suddenly at any time. ※%

These days they all intentionally avoided the crowded villages and towns, walked through wilderness plains, and slept in jungle valleys. Although the conditions were harsh, at least they did not suffer any attacks from the Holy Temple of Glory and gained enough time to restore Adelina's full combat power.

So they who were isolated from the world did not know that the outside world had already caused a complete sensation because of the announcements that the Holy Holy Temple of Glory spread throughout the Elderland continent.

The announcement clearly stated that Xia Lan and others had their whereabouts when they were exposed and they were hiding northeast of Ottori. The most important thing was that the brave and fearless knight Mopel used his sacrifice to cast a glorious mark on the number one murderer, so there was no need to worry about identifying them anymore. As long as you understand the use of the glorious energy, you can easily detect the whereabouts of the murderer himself.

In response to this, the Glorious Temple also increased the reward of Adelina to 20 million. At the same time, Xia Lan, who was a companion of the murderer, clearly marked the price to 10 million. It also detailed the identity and strength characteristics of Adelina and Xia Lan. The original reward conditions remain unchanged. As long as the clues of the murderer are found, they can get one tenth of the bounty after they are found.

It is precisely because the problem of tracing and identifying the identity of the criminal was completely solved, countless mercenary adventurers who were interested in offering rewards called on their friends, and the church believers who were conscious of the glorious energy started a wide search, like a large net firmly covering the country of Ottori.

People die for money, and birds die for food.

The mercenary adventurers who searched for Xia Lan and others naturally knew the danger of the murderer. They were not greedy for being able to catch the other party. As long as they found the other party’s whereabouts reported to the Guanghui Temple, they could get the bounty of less than two million. How could such a good thing not make people crazy?

Somewhere in the woods at the foot of the mountain, leaning against the shaded tree, Xia Lan held a map spread out in her hand, browsing carefully with a focused expression, preparing to formulate the next direction for her escape.

Ottori's territory is similar to a flat piment-shaped slant with many plains and few mountains and rivers. It is a wealthy country that produces food a lot. Due to the permanent neutral national policy, Ottori maintains harmonious relations with the surrounding countries and has peace and prosperity in the country. Compared with other areas where wars continue, many people regard Ottori as the most suitable country for settlement and living.

They could reach Lasennier after about three or four days of traveling east, but this section of the road was full of plains and hills, and there were no mountains and rivers, so it was very difficult to travel in secret.

I hope there will be no accidents along the way.

With such thoughts in his heart, Xia Lan put the map into the Void Ring and looked at Adelina and Winnie, who were depressed while resting. She was considering whether she needed to accumulate energy for one night, but the pressure given by the Glory Temple had to make him give up this idea.

"Carry up and prepare to set off."

Walking towards the war horse tied to the side, Xia Lan called out to them.

Winnie seemed to have become accustomed to her current life. She took out two bottles of potions from her arms and drank them down, stood up with difficulty, and rode on the war horse with Adelina. During the process, she said nothing, and then quickly followed Xia Lan and disappeared into the woods.

The speed of war horses running on the road is not fast. If they were not for special circumstances, running wildly would only increase the burden on horses. The best way is to replace them with a new war horse, but where will Xia Lan change the horses along the way? Do you really want to go to towns and villages to grab horses?

They finally got rid of the pursuit of the Guanghui Temple. Who would foolishly rob horses and expose their whereabouts? Can't they enter the city alone to buy horses?

"I remember there was a town in front, where I would go to buy new horses later."

On the way, Xia Lan suddenly spoke.

"I agree with this." Winnie slapped the horse's neck weakly and sighed: "You see, it makes us toss like this. If we meet the pursuers again, I am really worried that it will not be able to escape, so it will fall to the ground and die suddenly."

Actually, what she really wants to say is that she has had enough of the crowds of two people.

"I'm dragging you down." Adelina, who was silent, said with a sad and guilty look on her face.

"Adelina, if we were not for you, we would have died when we were in Fort Demel, so there is no need to say these words." Xia Lan said.

It was a while before sunset, Xia Lan and the others saw the outline of a town from afar. They found a hidden place to settle Adelina and Winnie. After he seriously warned some precautions, he was relieved to go to the town alone. When he left, Winnie did not forget to let him see if there were any lack of medicine materials in the town.

Valderin, an important town northeast of Ortori, connects Rubska to the north, Elanisen to the east, and to the south, it directly to the capital of Brunswick. There are too many prosperous and rich places in Xialan, so he didn't care about this town in particular. Following the team entering the city gate inspection, Xialan hurried to the market without stopping.

Perhaps we should be grateful for the geographical location of Valderin. Because Rubska in the north produces horses, cattle and sheep, many merchants from Rubska will come to Valderin to sell with excellent horses. They spent a lot of money to buy three tall and strong horses from a merchant, and specially purchased a lot of fat forage. Then Xia Lan remembered Winnie's instructions to find medicine materials everywhere.

...

...

Winnie sat on the ground, holding her cheeks, looking at the dim sky with her eyes blankly. The hazy purple moon appeared, and she yawned for a long time, muttering unconsciously: "When will Xia Lan come back? She is so hungry..."

Adelina, who heard Winnie talking to herself, did not make a sound, but just quietly teased the mane of the war horse. They rarely communicated when they got along. There was a question that was always confused in her heart. Why did Xia Lan still take care of Winnie? Didn’t she use her value long before Monterey? Did he forget that Winnie wanted to kill him? Or... Xia Lan liked Winnie?

Thinking of this, Adrina quickly shook her head and dispelled this ridiculous idea, but the more she didn't think about it, the more she couldn't help but suspicion.

She sighed inwardly, glanced at Winnie, who was staring at the sky in a daze. From a certain perspective, the two people can be said to be very similar, but their fates are completely different.

Um?

Suddenly, Adrina looked shaking, her eyes stared at the distance inexplicably, and the light of the virtual ring on her finger flashed, and the dark ash appeared in her hand and held tightly.

"Winnie! Come here, a group of people of unknown origin are approaching us."

Winnie came to her senses instantly. Seeing Adelina's serious look of physical and mental vigilance, she immediately felt something was wrong. She hurriedly ran behind Adelina and looked along her gaze to the empty distance.

After a while, several strong men wearing leather armor appeared in the bushes in the distance. One of them seemed to notice Adelina's gaze, and his eyes were in contact with Adelina. After seeing the other person clearly, the long knife in his hand was immediately put down, and his nervous face suddenly relaxed.

"Hey! Guys, look, there are two pretty little girls who are alone in front of you!"

When he said this, seven or eight figures emerged from the bushes again, and the sounds became noisy.

"Where is the beautiful girl?"

"Pitz! If you dare to lie to me, I'll be careful, I'll turn your dog's head!"

"Little girl?! I love little girl!"

At this time, there were about a dozen people coming out of the bushes, and they all stayed in place and looked at Adelina and Winnie in the distance, as if they were afraid of being frightened.

"Hey! The little girl in front! Don't be afraid! We are mercenaries of Valderin and are preparing to go back to the city to rest! Don't worry, we have no malice towards you!"

One of the men who seemed to be the leader shouted immediately after seeing Adelina holding a long sword in her arms.

"Winnie? What to do?"

When encountering such a thing, Adrina was at a loss for a moment and had to turn to Winnie behind her.

"If it were Xia Lan, I would definitely kill them without saying a word." Winnie carefully observed the guy in front of her, and smiled gently on the corner of her mouth.

"I'm not Xia Lan! So I won't kill innocent people casually!" Adelina said with a frown.

"That's it?! Then you tell them to walk away and don't approach us!" Winnie sighed as if she was a little disappointed.

"If you have nothing else, please leave!" Adrienna followed Winnie's advice and shouted at them.

"Okay! Don't worry, we will leave!" The leader opposite raised his hand and signaled: "But, little girls, it's very dangerous for you to stay here? Do you need to go to Valderin with us? We can be your guide for free?!"

"No need!" Adelina refused directly.

"Oh..." The leader shook his head with some regret. Just as he was about to lead the team to leave, his sleeves were pulled. He turned around and found Pitts's face red and pulled him and whispered: "Card, have you noticed it? The little girl's accent is strange?!"

"Freaky?!" Chad was stunned for a moment.

"Let's go! This is not a place to talk, let's go back to Valderin!" Pitts did not say much, but pulled Chad and said hurriedly.

Unknowingly, Chad felt the matter was important and immediately ordered the team to leave quickly.

"Adelina, why are they leaving so urgent?" Winnie looked at the group of people in front of her and suddenly accelerated and left strangely.

"A man seemed to be saying something to the person who was just talking to me. My accent was strange and hurriedly pulled him away." Adelina said in confusion.

"No! They should find out about our identity problems, Adrina! Chase and kill them immediately!" When Winnie heard this, her expression immediately changed.

"Hmm?" Adelina said in surprise. "How do you know that they discovered our identity?"

"Accent, accent! Don't forget that there is something wrong with our accent!" Winnie said anxiously at Adrina's slowness.

"I understand! You're waiting for me to come back here"

Adrina finally understood what Winnie meant, and after her ignorant face woke up, she immediately chased the other party anxiously.

"Not good! She is chasing me!"

Pitz, who rushed towards Valderin, hurriedly paid attention to Adelina and the others behind him. When he saw Adelina appearing with his sword in the blink of an eye, he immediately said in shock.

When he finished speaking, Adelina had appeared in front of them, and without even giving them a chance to react, the dark sword in her hand had already drawn a black light and slashed across.

Chad, the strongest and fastest-responsive, lay on the ground immediately before the Black Light Slash came, and his other companions were not so lucky. Everyone slashed into two pieces in that attack, including Pids, who was warning.

Chad looked at the tragic scene in disbelief. Now he finally knew what Piz said when he pulled him. It turned out that Yunfan was the number one murderer in the wanted manifesto of the Guanghui Temple!

"Girl, please spare me! Please don't kill me!" A black shadow covered him. At this time, Chad didn't look at the other party at all. He cried and begged for mercy: "How did we offend you? Even if you want to kill me, please let me die clearly!"

Hum? Hearing the other party begging for mercy, a hint of clarity flashed through Adrina's bright red eyes. Could it be that she had misunderstood them? The long sword that was about to be killed on the other party was still in the air.

"Go to die! You evil heresy!"

After she was stunned for a moment, Chad, who was kneeling on the ground, seized the opportunity and suddenly took something out of his hand and shot it into the air. Adelina, who was stimulated by the other party's actions, subconsciously swung her sword and slashed it down.

At this time, a golden firework exploded in the air, so gorgeous and so dazzling.

"Adelina?"

A familiar voice brought Adrina back to her senses. She looked in the sound and saw Xia Lan riding on a horse, holding two horses in her hands and rushing towards him.

"What's going on here?"

Looking at the blood-flowing corpses, Xia Lan looked at the fireworks that exploded above her head. He took a cold breath, as if he realized something bad. Without waiting for Adelina to answer, he picked up Adelina and drove the horses to the place where they were placed.

Seeing Winnie anxiously waiting at the settlement, Xialan immediately ordered Winnie and Adriena to ride on the newly bought horse and gallop in the distance in the dark.

The warning fireworks of the Guanghui Temple!

Damn it!

Why did this happen just after I left!

Thinking annoyedly, Xia Lan did not forget to look at the anxious Adelina. Do you really have to blame her for her slackness and negligence?

He sighed, now he could only pray that the Holy Temple of Glory could not track their escape. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, the novel is better, updated and faster!
