Chapter 10 Easy Rescue
The next day, the group left the campsite. The three of them, Joshua and Winnie, were stuffed into the carriage and continued heading northwest.
It took about half a day, and when the sun was the hottest in the day, the carriage stopped again.
After Joshua Ann and Winnie got off the carriage, they were surprised to find that although the place they were in couldn't be called a wilderness, it wasn't much different.
Because looking around, in front of the two of them, apart from a seemingly huge manor, there are only rolling hills and dense forests around them, and there is no possibility of any other traces of people at a glance.
Winnie frowned slightly, and asked the middle-aged magician: "Hey, you arrested me so that I could do magic machinery research for you, right? Do you want to tell me that this is the place for research?"
The middle-aged magician glanced at her, did not answer, but came to signal his subordinates to escort the two of them and Hawat into the manor.
Winnie asked him a few more words, but he still didn't say a word, which was completely different from the way he occasionally chatted with the two on the road.
Not long after entering the gate of the manor, a group of people greeted them quickly.
Walking in the front was a majestic middle-aged man in noble attire. After seeing Winnie, a gleam of joy flashed across his face, and he asked the middle-aged magician, "Musher, who is she?" Is it the goal this time?"
The middle-aged magician known as Musher bowed slightly and gave a salute, and solemnly replied: "My lord, this woman is the target of this operation. Winnie, a third-level researcher from the Magic Research Institute of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce Spencer. The young man next to her is her husband Lierno Joshua. This little boy is her nephew Hawat."
The majestic middle-aged man glanced at the faces of Joshuaan and Hawat. Didn't care much. Turning his head, he showed Winnie a very friendly smile.
"Researcher Winnie. Warmly welcome you to our secret research institute. I hope you will have a pleasant stay here in the future and fully devote yourself to your research work."
Winnie glanced at him, and said coldly: "If someone hijacks us like this, do you expect me to have a good time?"
The middle-aged man laughed: "Although the method of inviting you here is a bit rough, please don't doubt our sincerity. I assure you, you will definitely get the best living environment here, and at the same time, you will Get the best working environment. There are countless people here for you to send, and there are countless magic materials for you to use at will. I believe that working here will definitely be more convenient and comfortable than working in the Magic Research Institute of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce."
Winnie snorted lightly: "What if I want to leave?"
"Of course not."
"Then I ask you to release my husband and nephew and let them get out of here?"
"Of course not."
"Then can I contact the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and tell them to stay and work here?"
"Obviously, this is not allowed." The middle-aged man said with a smile.
"Then you've been talking nonsense for a long time." Winnie sighed. "That's why I've always disliked the way you nobles behave. You obviously hijacked me and forced me to work for you, so let's just say it, and you have to beat around the bush and say such a bunch of high-sounding words. Is this interesting? ?”
The corner of the middle-aged man's mouth twitched, and the smile on his face became a little stiff. He coughed lightly before responding: "Researcher Winnie, as I said, although you will be restricted in terms of freedom, in other respects, I will provide you with very superior conditions to ensure that you can enjoy your time here." As long as you are willing to cooperate, I can guarantee that you and your family will not be harmed in any way."
"That is to say, if I don't cooperate, they may be hurt?" Winnie asked.
The middle-aged man showed a dangerous smile on his face: "Of course I don't want things to develop to this point, and you also don't want to become like this, do you?"
"Hmph! Hypocrisy!" Winnie snorted coldly.
The middle-aged man shrugged and spread his hands: "No matter what you think of me, I just need you to answer one question now. Researcher Winnie, are you willing to cooperate with our research work?"
"You have wasted so much effort to catch us here, and you still put on such a posture, will you allow me to be unwilling?" Winnie asked back with a sneer.
The middle-aged man smiled and said: "If I can get your sincere cooperation, then I obviously don't want to make our relationship too rigid. You are a smart person and should know how to choose."
Winnie looked around and sighed: "It seems that I have no choice?"
The middle-aged man smiled without saying a word.
Winnie stared at him intently for a while, and just when the middle-aged man thought she would finally nod in agreement, she suddenly shook her head and showed a mischievous smile.
"Unfortunately, I still don't want to."
As soon as the words fell, Winnie raised her hand, and two small fireballs instantly flew in front of the two strong men who were guarding Joshua and Hawat.
The two tilted their heads subconsciously, but Winnie flew over at this moment, pressed Joshuaan and Hawat with both hands, and then carried one in each hand, and the three flew directly into the air.
The three of them had been quiet all along the way, and they didn't show any thoughts of resistance, but now they suddenly got into trouble, which naturally greatly exceeded the expectations of others.
Especially the middle-aged magician named Musheer was even more stunned.
He obviously put on a magic bracelet for Winnie, why can Winnie cast magic so easily now? Even she can fly directly into the sky with two people?
The majestic middle-aged man finally came to his senses, and immediately yelled at Musher angrily: "What are you still doing? Hurry up and catch them!"
Musher quickly responded: "My lord, please don't worry, she won't be able to fly far with two people with her. This subordinate will arrest her immediately."
After all, the magic power in his body moved, and he flew up together with the two men who were also senior magicians brought by the middle-aged man.
Looking at the three Winnies who had already flown into the air at this time, Musher was not very worried.
With Winnie's level as a sixth-level magician, it is impossible to fly far with two people.
Moreover, there are all barren mountains and wild mountains around here, and it is impossible for her to find any suitable place to hide in a short time.
Although Winnie's movement was unexpected, in his opinion, it was nothing more than a dying struggle, meaningless at all.
Just as she was thinking about capturing Winnie and the three of them back, even though Winnie couldn't move, she must torture her husband and nephew to warn her, Musher suddenly noticed an unusually powerful wave of magic power coming from came from afar.
He and the other two magicians turned their heads in horror at the same time, and saw a red light flying towards the sky in the distance.
The three magicians didn't have time to react too much, they could only prop up the magic shield in an instant.
"boom--"
The red light hit Musheer's magic shield first, causing a huge explosion.
Musher only felt that his magic shield was like ice and snow exposed to the summer sun, and it had completely melted in an instant, and then he was directly blown away by the huge shock wave.
The fate of the other two magicians was no different from Musher's. The three of them drew a parabola from the sky like kites with broken strings, and flew down to the far back of the manor.
The middle-aged man on the ground stared in shock at the direction where the red light was flying, and then saw a huge black shadow flying quickly from the distant sky, and it arrived over the manor in a short while.
After seeing the true face of this huge shadow, the middle-aged man's face suddenly turned ashen.
"It's actually the magic airship of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce guards! How did they find this place so quickly?"
Winnie in the sky had already brought Joshua and Hawat to the side of the magical airship that suddenly appeared, and flew in through the hatch that opened on the side.
As soon as she entered the cabin door, Winnie's legs immediately went limp, and she slumped on the ground, often taking a long breath.
"Phew - I was scared to death. If you come later, I will be caught by them again."
In the magic airship, a girl about the same age as Winnie, wearing the uniform of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce Guards, came over and said with a smile: "Come on, Winnie, you haven't been afraid at all during this journey, okay? In other words, you and Yue Xiu'an just enjoyed an unexpected trip abroad."
After that, she touched the head of Hawat who was in a daze, and said softly: "You, little nephew, should be terrified. Hey, Hawat, are you afraid?"
Hawat stared blankly at the inside of the magic airship, but after a while he showed an excited look, his eyes shone brightly and he shook his head vigorously, "I'm not afraid! Auntie, this is the legendary magic airship, right?"
The young girl rolled her eyes: "Call me sister! I'm not that old! By the way, this is a magic airship. You haven't been on it before, have you?"
"Hmm! It's my first time even riding a magic car! It's so fun!" Hawat nodded vigorously.
The young girl patted her forehead helplessly: "Okay, Winnie, it seems that my worries are a bit unnecessary. Your little nephew is simply astonishingly courageous."
Winnie snorted and was about to speak when a young man in his thirties who also wore the Xinfei Merchant Guard walked over and interrupted her.
"Joshua, Winnie, we could have rescued you earlier. But in order to be able to find out who is behind the scenes, you have to work harder."
"It's nothing." Winnie took a breath, stood up, and pointed down. "What about the guys below?"
The young man walked to the window, glanced at the huge manor below, and sneered contemptuously at the corner of his mouth.
"These guys dare to hijack the members of our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. They don't know what to do! I can guarantee that they and the people behind them will regret this impulse." (To be continued...)
