Winnie waited patiently for a moment. When she saw that the remaining three bandits did not take out more military magic machines or other related equipment, she was relieved and prepared to get rid of them.
Of course, she could not kill them all.
They were just a few bandits, but they were able to have the most advanced military magic machines in their hands. Their background was definitely not simple.
Even if they didn't care about this, just investigating how the four individual Magic Shields fell into the hands of the four bandits was a very important matter. As a researcher of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce's magic research facility, Winnie couldn't avoid this.
But just as Winnie was about to attack again, she suddenly heard a muffled sound above her head.
"Hmph!
What a waste of time to pin my hopes on trash like you. "
Along with the sound of the voice, there was an abnormal surge of magical energy above her head.
Winnie was shocked and flew back without hesitation.
The intensity of the magical energy made her instantly determine that it was at least caused by an eighth-level spell, or even a higher level spell. It was far beyond the level that she could deal with now.
However, her flying speed was not as fast as the casting speed of the spell. She had just flown back for a short distance when she felt an unusually strong light in front of her.
In a flash, Winnie had already determined that it should be an advanced wind-type spell, the eighth-level electric spell, Electric Blade.
This spell was one of the most powerful single-target spells even among the eighth-level spells. With Winnie's ability as a sixth-level mage, even if she could take it head-on, she would definitely be severely injured.
But the speed of this spell was so fast that she could not dodge it at all.
In a moment of desperation, Winnie seeped a trace of magical energy into her body and quietly activated a device that she had always kept close to her body.
A light blue screen suddenly burst out from Winnie's body and instantly enveloped her whole body.
The sudden sharp lightning hit the light blue screen and caused ripples on the light screen, but it could only shake the light screen and did not penetrate the light screen. Naturally, it could not cause any harm to Winnie.
If one looked closely, they would find that the light blue screen that enveloped Winnie was somewhat similar to the light blue water magic shield that was cast by the individual Magic Shields of the four bandits, but it looked thicker and had a much better defensive effect. That was why it could withstand the attack of an eighth-level spell.
This device that Winnie had always kept close to her body belonged to the same category as the individual Magic Shields, but it was a magic shield amplification device that was specially designed for mages.
Compared to the individual Magic Shields that could be easily used by ordinary people, this magic shield amplification device could be activated by a mage's magical energy to cast a magic shield. In terms of flexibility, it was much better than the individual Magic shields.
In addition, because it was supported by the mage's own magical energy, the strength of the magic shield cast by the magic shield amplification device would be increased according to the mage's own magical level.
In simple terms, it was actually equivalent to combining the strength of the mage with the device to increase the level of the magic shield that the mage could cast.
Otherwise, with Winnie's own magical level as a sixth-level mage, she would not be able to withstand the attack of an eighth-level spell.
The only regret was that Winnie was good at fire magic, but the magic shield amplification device on her body could only greatly strengthen the water magic shield. Otherwise, the magic shield that she cast now would be able to withstand the attack of an eighth-level spell, or even a ninth-level spell.
After confirming that she had finally blocked the enemy's magic attack, Winnie breathed a sigh of relief and focused on the front.
However, just as she calmed down, her heart trembled violently again.
On the side of the road, Jothian and Hawat, who had been hiding and watching her kill the bandits, were now firmly restrained by a few fully armed men who had appeared out of nowhere. Two sharp blades were placed on their necks, and even their breathing had become very careful.
"Let them go!" Winnie roared angrily and was about to rush over.
However, just as she moved, another bolt of lightning shot towards her. She had no choice but to activate her magic shield again to block this bolt of lightning.
"Winnie Spinoza, if I were you, I would choose to stay put at this time. Otherwise, no one can guarantee that your husband and little nephew will be unharmed." A sinister voice came from the side.
Winnie was stunned and looked in the direction of the voice.
A middle-aged man in ordinary clothes and an ordinary face, who looked no different from a passerby, was floating in the air in front of her, looking at her with a smile.
"How do you know my name?" Winnie asked with a frown.
Not only did this man know her name, but he also knew that Jothian was her husband. More importantly, he even knew that Hawat was her nephew. This was enough to prove that the man had come prepared, and this time, he had specially set up an ambush for the three of them.
"You don't need to know that."
The middle-aged man who looked ordinary, but his magical level was at least that of an eighth-level mage, shook his head gently.
"The only thing you need to do now is to listen to us obediently and come with us.
Don't worry, you and your husband Jothian are still useful. We won't take your lives.
Of course, if you don't listen … I can't guarantee the life of your little nephew … "
Winnie took a deep breath when she heard this blatant threat. She turned to look at Jothian who had a sharp blade against his neck.
Although Jothian's vital part was under the blade, his face was only slightly pale, and there was not much fear on his face. When he saw Winnie looking at him, he calmly said, "Winnie, listen to them. We don't have the ability to resist now."
Winnie was silent for a moment. She looked at Hawat who was crying out of fear but was trying his best not to cry out loud. After thinking for a moment, she removed the magic shield that covered her body and floated to the ground.
The middle-aged mage seemed to be a little surprised that Winnie would give in so easily. After being stunned for a moment, he took out something from his pocket and threw it to Winnie.
"Take this."
Winnie took a look at it and found that it was something like a bracelet.
The bracelet emitted a very similar magical wave. When she put the bracelet on her wrist, she felt that the magical wave in her body was tightly suppressed and became extremely sluggish.
It was obvious that this was an anti-magic tool.
It was rare to see such anti-magic tools in Sines. The fact that the mage had taken one out showed that he was well-prepared.
However, this also proved that the mage had no intention of harming her. Otherwise, there would be no need to go through so much trouble.
Winnie was relieved when she thought of this. She looked at Jothian and exchanged glances with him.
"Oh, right. Also, take off all those weird things you have on you."
Seeing the exchange of glances between Winnie and Jothian, the middle-aged mage suddenly thought of something and ordered.
The two burly men immediately closed in on Winnie. Winnie immediately raised her eyebrows and said sternly, "I'll do it myself!
If you let these stinky men get close to me, I'll kill myself immediately! "
The two men had no choice but to stop and look at the middle-aged mage.
The mage hesitated for a moment and nodded. "Alright, you do it yourself.
But you have to understand that I know very well what you have on you. If you still want to hide it, don't blame me for taking it out even if I have to control you completely! "
Winnie snorted coldly and turned around. She reached into her bosom and took out the magic amplification device and a few other gadgets that she had on her.
The middle-aged mage flew over and took these things in his hand. He looked at Winnie from head to toe and nodded. With a wave of his hand, he said, "Take them away!"
The two burly men took Winnie and Jothian, respectively. The other man picked up Hawat who was struggling from time to time. The group immediately rushed into the nearby forest.
After passing through the forest for a while, a clearing appeared in front of them.
There were a total of five carriages parked in the clearing. The two burly men took Winnie and Jothian into the largest carriage. The middle-aged mage followed and the carriage started moving.
"You two, I can see that you are both smart people. Then I'll be frank."
The middle-aged Magician narrowed his eyes as he sized up the two of them and said in a deep voice, "As long as you cooperate obediently, then you will be fine. You will even enjoy good treatment.
But if you don't cooperate, we don't mind giving you some trouble. We might even … let you experience some pain that you don't want to experience … "
As he said this, the middle-aged mage glanced at the back of the carriage.
Just now, Hawat was stuffed into the back of the carriage. The middle-aged Magician's meaning was clear without words.
"I have a question," Jothian suddenly said.
"What value do we have on us that you would go to such lengths to capture us?"
"Yeah, we don't have any special identities. We are just two ordinary commoners. We aren't even nobles. Why do you have to go to such lengths to capture us?" Winnie asked.
The middle-aged mage snorted and glanced at the two men. "It's simple. Because you are both from New Flyer."
Winnie and Jothian looked at each other. Their eyes were filled with surprise.
"We are just from New Flyer. Why do you have to go to such lengths?
We are not important people like the president … "Winnie couldn't help but say.
The middle-aged mage waved his hand impatiently. "Nonsense. If we could capture Xu Yi, why would we need to go to such lengths?
Alright, be good and listen. When we get there, you will know what to do. "
Winnie and Jothian looked at each other again. This was really surprising.
Since when did the two of them have such value?
