"But what does this have to do with me" Ron wondered.
The general pointed to a knight beside him and explained to Ron, "It's like this, I'm going to send my near-bit knight Grant to lead a squad to carry out this mission, in order to ensure safety, we need a magician to accompany us, and Grandmaster Lek recommended you to me".
The Grandmaster was still very concerned about Ron, after arriving here the Grandmaster realized that the situation here was very unpromising, he purposely arranged for Ron to go out of the city to carry out the mission, to avoid staying in this city that could be overrun at any time.
"Perhaps this mission will also be dangerous, but this is also one of your obligations as a subject of the empire, pack up and leave with Grant this afternoon" the general instructed.
"At your service", Ron returned to his room, keeping his bag of crystals and some light homemade tools close to him, and with his wand in hand, he headed out to meet Grant and set off.
---------- ---------- ---------- ----------
To be honest, Grant a little look down on Ron this small magician, he even think to bring this guy will drag himself, when the squad line out of the city, Grant asked Ron to be responsible for reconnaissance, in his mind, every magician will have a crystal ball for detecting, from the crystal ball can be detected far away from the situation.
However, Ron did not have such a crystal ball at all, Grant only saw him take out a cylinder-like thing to his eyes to look around every high ground, and then told everyone that there was no movement in front of him.
On the second day of the squad's march, they could already see a large mountain standing at the end in the distance, Grant pointed his longsword at the mountain and said to the group, "Over the large mountain in front of us, we can see the city of Clarke, it looks like we're doing well".
"I guess we can take a break now"? Ron felt like he might as well have been surviving hell this day, even though it only took him two hours to learn how to ride a horse, a day of bumping around on a horse made him feel like all his bones were falling apart, and his head was pounding so hard that he was dizzy and vomiting acid into the ground from time to time.
"Alright, all rest for a quarter of an hour." Grant looked sympathetically at the skinny wizard in front of him, and in his heart, he was also secretly admiring, "Although this guy is not good, this kind of perseverance is still not bad, with this kind of traveling speed, he actually didn't drag everyone down".
When Ron felt a bit more comfortable, he climbed up a small hill and took out his binoculars to observe, this time he found the situation, "Grant! I've spotted a group of cavalry! There's about a couple hundred of them, and they're marching in our direction! Come up here and see if it's one of our own."
"Damn! It's Leo's army! It's probably their scouting regiment, why isn't there even a hiding spot in this abomination"? Grant looked and grumbled, "They're not fast, let's speed up and move forward, they won't be able to find us once we get into the big mountains".
The dust raised by the horses startled the group of cavalry behind them, they also accelerated and chased towards Ron's small group.
When Grant saw that another group of cavalry appeared in front of him, he became a little anxious, the cavalry in front of him was not far away from him, and the pursuers behind him were clearly chasing towards his own squad, the only way out was to rush through, as long as he rushed to the big mountain in front of him, he would be safe.
Grant gritted his teeth and gave the order to sprint, he knew that the only way out was to sprint over before the group of cavalry in front of him reacted, or else his squad would be dead.
The sprint at this speed was too much for Ron to support, and after a puff of dust he flew away from his mount, his wand already in his hand, the aerokinesis he had once studied in his consciousness being used to its fullest extent, and he flew ahead of the others at the front of the group.
"Our wizard is a powerful fellow! You guys, look, he's using the flying spell." Grant looked at Ron in midair in front of him in amazement, and a look of excitement had appeared on his face, "The group follow and charge!"!
Knowing that the magicians on this continent who could use the Flying Technique were those who could be counted on the fingers of one hand, Ron's move made everyone in this squad instantly confident, and they thought that a great powerful and superb magician dealing with a cavalry team of a few hundred people would definitely be a breeze.
The cavalry at the front was obviously in a bit of a mess, they were assembling their defensive formation, and not waiting for them to assemble, the magic ball in Ron's hand that even Rasheer and Master Lek couldn't comprehend had already been completed.
The magic ball struck the other side's formation, causing a panic, they originally thought that the front of this squad's charge was no different from sending them to their deaths, but they could not imagine that the other side actually had a magician, and this magician was actually a terrifying magician, he actually used the flying technique, and sent a magic they had never seen before in the air to them!
A strong magical aura with a hot air current came towards them, with their noses they could smell the power of this magic ball, the formation in front of them started to mess up, the cavalrymen all wanted to try to dodge the attack range of this magic ball as much as they could.
Even though those who could avoid it did so, but when the magic ball reached the opponent's formation, a large number of people in the front row still fell down, as they panicked, Ron's second magic ball finished, and with the aftermath of the previous one, continued to strike at the opponent's formation.
Along with the fall of the opponent's cavalry, Grant had already led a small group of men to charge into this panicked formation of the opponent, Ron waved his wand in mid-air to open the way, the opponent's cavalry leader had already turned from amazement to fear, he saw that this terrifying wizard didn't meditate at all and didn't recite any incantations, yet lightning bolt after lightning bolt struck directly out of his wand, with every lightning bolt his own side was going to fall down one of the Cavalrymen, the only thing he could think of now was how to let his troops escape from this magician's attack.
After issuing the order to retreat, the cavalrymen scrambled to flee the battlefield, and soon there was no longer a single enemy to be found in front of Grant and his men, who took advantage of the sprint to quickly make their way to the large hill in front of them.
The two bands of cavalry that had begun to encircle their squad had already met, and the leader of the cavalry that was chasing them from behind was going to continue to pursue the squad in front of them, but after seeing the losses and the wretched appearance of the one in front of them, as well as the fearful looks in the eyes of the cavalrymen, he decided to ask the leader of the one in front of him about the situation first.
"If you think your group can fight against a terrifying great magician, then you give the order to attack" the leader of the one in front replied.
The leader in the back immediately gave the order, "All of you evacuate the area, all of you pay attention to your formation."
