“Guild Leader Hu Lan, you didn’t tell us that there were outsiders in the caravan!” Robin and Stark found the young noble behind the caravan with ugly expressions. The beautiful captain pulled him aside and whispered, “Who are they?”

Yesterday, the two sides were satisfied with their cooperation, but today, after the mercenary corps joined the caravan, an unexpected accident occurred to the apostles.

There were actually three “outsiders” in the caravan of the noble youth. These three outsiders did not refer to the mercenaries that the caravan had originally hired. Because of the heavy casualties, the mercenaries had already lost the ability to continue escorting the caravan after arriving here. After the caravan paid the pension and a portion of the commission, they were dismissed.

These three outsiders were a red-robed mage and his apprentice, and the last one was a female knight. Although the crowd avoided the three of them from afar, they could tell from their attire and temperament that they weren’t part of the caravan at a glance.

‘”Oh, that’s Mage Angelo and his apprentice El. As for Idrya …” The young noble glanced at the female knight opposite him and lowered his voice. “She’s a trainee knight of the Church of Lauvita. She’s here for a tour!”

“What about the red-robed mage and his apprentice? Who is he?” Robin asked with a frown.

After learning that the female knight was a church knight, she immediately lost interest. Most of the church knights believed firmly and didn’t speak too much. As long as they weren’t followers of the God of Murder, they wouldn’t threaten the secrets of the envoys.

“Robin, wait a moment! Guild Leader Hulan, what kind of church trainee knight did you just call a female knight?” Stark blinked and suddenly interrupted.

“Idria is a follower of Lady Lauvita …” However, the young noble seemed to take Stark’s question for granted.

‘”Abuse the goddess” At this moment, Robin finally reacted. He searched through the Apostle Soul Seal and revealed a strange expression.

Lauvita was a very special goddess. She was cruel, calm, domineering, and bold. She protected all the torturers, sadists, and sadists on the continent of Ferren. She was also known as a painful girl.

Her followers can treat others cruelly as well as themselves coldly. Amongst the many gods and churches in Faylen Continent, the number of followers of Goddess Lauvita was extremely small. Almost every single one of them was of the highest quality.

‘”Mage Angelo and El are members of the Red-robed Mages Association. They are also going to the Bird Gate this time. As for what they are going to do, they did not mention it. I believe that Y has nothing to do with us!” The noble youth said awkwardly.

“Guild Leader Hu Lan, you didn’t mention them before you signed the employment contract with us. Can you explain why?” Robin secretly looked at the female knight and then turned around to ask seriously.

“This” The noble youth opened his mouth. He had indeed not considered the three people in the caravan.

“Gentlemen, I don’t think this violates our employment contract!” The old butler, who had been silent beside the young noble, finally came out to make things right. “Whether it was Mage Angelo, Al, or Miss Idrea, they didn’t ask for the protection of the caravan. They just wanted to accompany us and borrow the carriage and tent.”

‘”Yes, yes! Actually, the three of them never caused any trouble to the caravan during their previous journey. Moreover, it was only by relying on them several times that the original mercenaries repelled the bandit groups on the plains.” The young noble finally came to his senses and said.

Robin and Stark looked at each other helplessly. They had already said this, so what else could they say? The mercenary group didn’t need to protect the three of them, but when they were in danger, they could borrow their strength. Moreover, they had already followed the caravan far away, proving that they had no malicious intentions. Perhaps the caravan would not drive them away.

“That’s the only way. If we cancel the employment contract now, it would be too suspicious.” Stark discussed with Robin on the guild channel.

…

While Robin and the others were negotiating with the caravan, Qin Lun and the others were also secretly observing the three of them. The follower of Lauvita Church was a beautiful knight. She wore a tailor-made sleeveless breastplate and a bronze-inlaid battle dress, silver wristbands and leather gloves on both hands, and a pair of tall iron-tipped boots under her feet.

The female knight was tall and slender. She had long, fiery red wavy hair, a tall nose, slender eyebrows, and a healthy wheat-colored melon seed face. Her expression was cold and indifferent. She fed the mounts beside her, completely ignoring the eyes of the apostles. She seemed to be used to being watched by others long ago.

Thinking about it, it was also the same. It was rare for a flower girl to become a knight, and a believer who was also Ms. Lauvita was even rarer than Faylon’s number of gods.

Of course, apart from being a Lauvita believer, the reason why the female knight was able to attract the attention of many men like a magnet was mainly due to her outstanding temperament. Perhaps the only flaw on her body was that her chest was peaceful, coupled with the restraint of the steel chest armor, it was practically flat.

Even Elistine couldn’t help but straighten his chest after sizing her up, feeling much more confident. Originally, in front of Kelly, Nicole, and Robin, the green elven druid couldn’t lift his head anymore.

The three female apostles had their own strengths and weaknesses. Kelly’s chest was the largest. Although she had a strong personality, she had a queen temperament. Nicole was mature and sexy, Robin was rational and intelligent, and even Les, who used the Beast King Hunting Bow, had a cute and adorable temperament. In addition to the fact that most of the female apostles had adjusted their appearances and figures, Elistine really did not have the ability to show off in front of them.

Many male apostles admired the female knight with great interest and finally cast their gazes at the other two. Mage Angelo and his apprentice El were sitting under a large tree by the lake. Under the shade of the tree were two purple oak vine chairs and a matching coffee table, on which lay a tea set.

The mage seemed to know how to enjoy himself. While drinking tea, he closed his eyes and rested in the spring breeze. His apprentice El, on the other hand, was holding a thick and large book in his hands, reading it earnestly, and would occasionally frown and ponder, muttering to himself as if no one else was present.

El was dressed as a typical apprentice, with a white shirt and a grey fluffy vest, and his underwear was stuffed into his boots because he was away from home. He had soft and beautiful blonde hair, freckles on his face, and looked like a young man.

Actually, his teacher, Mage Angelo, wasn’t too old. He was also a young man. His face was thin, and his black hair was gently pressed against his forehead. When his eyes opened and closed, he would occasionally reveal a pair of deep black pupils.

However, the apostles looked at Angelo for a moment and couldn’t help but look at Philip.

“Why are you all looking at me?” Philip, of course, knew why everyone was looking at him, and his face flushed red, and he immediately roared at the crowd in anger and embarrassment.

“They are both mages. Why is the difference so great?” Nicole covered her mouth and snickered. Other people didn’t dare to tease Philip, but the beautiful mage didn’t care at all.

Nicole wasn’t referring to the difference in strength between the two parties, but to their appearances.

As a young mage, Angelo’s red robe was not the traditional hooded robe. Instead, it was trimmed into a tight-fitting noble gown. Two rows of neatly arranged copper buttons on his chest, folded animal hide flanges on his cuffs, and front forks below his waist.

The mage wore a fancy lapel with a white shirt tied to his collar, a white brocade handkerchief stuffed into his front chest pocket, and a pair of straight black leather trousers on his lower body. His entire outfit looked energetic and elegant.

In comparison, Philip, who was dressed in a large black robe and buried under it, looked a little old-fashioned. If he put on his hood again, he would be completely like those lifeless evil old adepts.

One was a noble mage, dressed in fashionable clothes, who could be the spokesperson for a new era model, and the other was a stubborn, dark, and evil mage. No matter what, Philip did not seem to be able to win the battle of images.

“What are you looking at? The most important thing for a mage is strength. Do you understand strength?” Philip gritted his teeth and turned away, ignoring his companions, who were turning their elbows away.

The sharp-witted apostles didn’t sense any threat from Mage Angelo. Unless he had a treasure that concealed his aura, he shouldn’t have reached the level of a high-ranked mage.

The storyline mages of this world were very different from the apostle mages like Philip in the form of magic. The same intermediate mages, Ferren’s storyline mages had more magic spots. From the apostle’s point of view, they had more skills to use.

The more skills one had, the more magic combinations one would have, and they would be able to deal with more combat forms. In this respect, Mage Ferren was more powerful than the apostle’s mage profession. The apostles’ skills were extremely precious. They could not possess more magical skills than Mage Ferren. Even a Tier 2 profession like Philip wouldn’t possess more than twenty magical skills. Normally, there were only a dozen or so of them.

Even though Ferren’s Intermediate Magicians had only reached the lowest level of Intermediate Magicians, when combined, they had at least forty to fifty spells, two to three times as many as the Apostles.

However, Philip had a very honest saying. As a mage, one had to rely on strength, not appearance. The apostles were still more optimistic about Philip than Angelo when it came to actual combat.

The reason was simple. No matter how many magic skills Angelo had, his magic power was limited. Philip had the Laws Body, and he had the Recovery Item. As long as Angelo could not get rid of Philip in a short time, he would grind him to death sooner or later.

The apostles quickly left and repitched their tents at the edge of the caravan’s camp. The caravan was different from them. It took them a day to gather their manpower and pack up the goods. They were still unable to go on their way today.

After everyone left, Angelo suddenly opened his eyes and looked in the direction of the apostles. He frowned deeply.

“Al, remember not to provoke that mercenary!” The young mage turned to remind his apprentice.

“Hmm? Teacher, is there a problem with any of them?” Al was slightly stunned. During his previous journey, his teacher had never commented on any mercenary.

Angelo glanced at a corner. He noticed that the female knight, who had been carelessly feeding the horse, was also frowning and pondering. She immediately curled her lips and hesitated for a moment. In the end, she decided that she should explain it to her disciple more clearly.

“It’s not that there’s a problem with anyone, but everyone. They’re very strong. It’s not surprising that there were experts among the mercenaries, but the problem is that everyone here has such a powerful aura …”
