So Nolan Lusi backhanded a super double...
Well, no, it was AOE anyway, and these guys fell down.
By the time I reacted from the moment a figure rushed out from the side with a swipe to Nolan Lex sitting boredly on a branch dangling her feet, the group of people had already been knocked down by Nolan Lex.
The whole process took no more than half a minute, and not a single bit of the Demon King's power was leaked.
The originally fierce-looking man was stunned for a moment, then looked around at the surrounding situation, calmed down the expression on his face, and then knelt on the ground with a loud bang, and said with a sad face: "My lord, you sir have a lot of... ·····”
"Stop talking nonsense and lead the way." Nolan Lusi appeared behind him expressionlessly. The black sword in his hand wiped his cheek and disappeared, leaving only the blood slowly seeping out of the man's face. shed.
What a fast sword!
While these three people unknowingly killed their teammates, they finally settled down a little and led us through the canyon and into the deep mountains and old forests.
As I advanced through the mountains, I also discovered that although the environment here is not very harsh, with the steep terrain, even if I cannot resist the attack from the Wells City Guard, I can still break into pieces and enter the mountains calmly. Looking for other opportunities.
When I followed the river to the top of the mountain, I could already feel the presence of a large number of humans in the valley ahead, and dark whistles began to appear sporadically around me.
After trapping these people with thorns, Nolan Lesi used the invisibility technique familiarly to trap a few of us. After confirming that there were no items that were obviously reactive to magic, the few of us swaggeringly stood guard from the door. He walked in without hesitation.
As soon as I walked in, the noise full of life hit me. If I didn't know what kind of place this was in advance, I would probably think of it as a courtyard, right?
The main body of the entire cottage is built on the cliffs surrounding the valley. Grottoes are carved on the cliffs, and then wooden structures are built for transportation, forming simple living rooms. Basically, it does not require much effort to take care of, and it is probably warm in winter. Summer is cool. At this moment, everyone inside was in a loose mood, and no one noticed our arrival, either brightly or secretly.
Nolan Lusi thought for a while and said: "I think I should be able to kill them instantly without alerting any of them. If you think it works, I will do it. If not, I will wait until I finish interrogating the treasure before I do it." .”
The corner of my mouth twitched slightly, and I said: "Set the mountain on fire and sit in jail."
"Hey, I haven't said how to fix it yet!" Nolan Lusi said quite displeased.
"Let's observe it first. If there is something messy like last time, it will be troublesome." I forcibly stopped Norales' hand that was about to rub the fireball and looked down.
At this time, Kellas was uncharacteristically, twitching his nose quite alertly, and said softly: "I don't think something is right. A little further away, there seems to be a smell of rotten overnight meal that was thrown into the magma for heating. "
heterogeneous?
"Are there also aliens in this place?" I became a little serious. According to Kellas, aliens are a big deal anyway. If they are not cleaned up carefully, even hell will be difficult to deal with. Although the few times I encountered aliens, The heterogeneous monsters don't seem to be powerful guys, but the heterogeneous monster wolf I met that night always made me a little scared.
The most important thing is that usually when something strange appears, besides Nolan Lesi, I will also feel it, but this time only Nolan Lesi smelled it, which is really strange.
"Well, I'm not sure." Kyle Rath slightly twitched his nose as he spoke, then rubbed it and said, "I feel a little strange, well, it feels like the rotten overnight meal that was just thrown into the lava is not yet cooked. .”
Kyle Rath was describing the smell she smelled while gesturing in the mutation. I thought about it for a long time and still couldn’t figure out how to express the sense of smell visually. In the end, I gave up on understanding Kel Rath’s feelings and instead told everyone Need to be more careful...
Nolan Lusi narrowed his eyes and pondered for a moment and said: "I have just explored it. This place is very poor. I really don't know how they became robbers. Let me tell you, I can detect people there even if I detect magic." It’s a small vault buried underground, and it only contains tens of thousands of gold coins. Let’s just take it away secretly this time, since they don’t know about this kind of thing anyway.”
"Later." I replied seriously, "Well - regarding heterogeneity, I have an idea. Maybe what you smell, Kellas, is not really heterogeneity, but can attract heterogeneity. Some of the stuff is just like the stuff that the businessmen smuggled in when we were in the tavern.”
Kellas's eyes widened and he said, "Hey, then I didn't smell anything at that time!"
"Most of these things are sealed, so it's weird that you can smell them,"
Kellas thought for a moment, and then the expression on his face immediately turned into a serious look; "You are right!"
Well, if Kellas showed such an expression, one of the reasons is because Cebolos was upper body, and the other is that she didn't think of anything, so she was just pretending to keep her face.
"Can you be sure where that thing is?" Thinking about this place, I already had some answers in my heart.
I suspect that this thing was originally transported by a merchant unintentionally as a transported commodity and then robbed by robbers along the way.
Very reasonable.
I nodded with great satisfaction and praised my quick thinking.
Kyle Russ also led us quite simply to a room that seemed to be of high standard. Inside, there was a tall man with a very obvious scar on his neck sitting inside, seemingly looking through something.
I leaned over and took a look with a little curiosity, only to find that what was written on it seemed a little strange...
These are quite ancient texts.
Furthermore, it is the text used in the "Original Canon" that exists to record the distance of magic. Now all human magic is basically modified and added to the structure of the original canon.
Having received the Vatican's Brave Tutorial, I certainly knew what it meant, but after pondering for a long time, I discovered that what was recorded in it was not about magic at all, but rather some... history.
Best of all, this book is in paper form.
The emergence of paper only happened in the last hundred years. The records in books before that were all made of monster skins and the like, so they were quite precious. Naturally, the original books of magic were basically recorded on them, and only a very few of them were recorded. Magic is preserved by being engraved on stone. In other words, these things were copied and made by someone.
At this time, Kyle Russ gently pointed at the necklace hanging around the man's neck, and I immediately understood what she meant.
Is this... an item with a foreign aura?
I frowned slightly and wanted to take a closer look, but after thinking about it, I might alert the snake. After all, although the form is invisible, the energy is still there. It would be troublesome to let them flee without completing the task.
So I just took note of this person's face and location, and left here.
I spent a lot of time searching the entire cottage to make sure that there was no evil incarnation popping out of any messy magic circles... Well, Kellas seems to have a good relationship with them, so some evil incarnation would pop up. Behind me, I activated the blood-soaked black thorns I had secretly sprinkled during my inspection.
To be honest, sometimes it is not a good thing for people to heal themselves too quickly. When I cast the spell just now, I just pricked it with thorns once, and then when I went to the next place, the wound stopped bleeding and I had to prick it again... ····
Although this bit of blood is harmless to me - it hurts! It's as painful as scratching a cactus a few times after it bleeds and it doesn't feel irritating.
Thinking of this, I sighed slightly and took my left hand, which was pricked with holes by black thorns, behind me——
Then chant.
"Spread, grow, consolidate, and imprison." The magical structure drawn in mid-air resonated with the black thorns everywhere.
Such a large-scale casting instantly drained most of the magic power from my body, but the goal I wanted to achieve now has been achieved.
All were imprisoned, not a single one was left.
And the guy who seemed to enjoy being the leader before was no exception.
"To put it simply, who controls you?" I stood in front of him, holding my hands and pretending to be ferocious as I looked at the silent scar-faced man in front of me.
Regarding the fact that a group of bandits suddenly appeared here at this time, and they were carrying items that could attract alien monsters, I thought it was a bit too coincidental. Except for the real coincidence, then the rest Someone just arranged it.
Although I don't really want to get involved in this kind of thing, since it has already involved something that Nolan Lusi and Kyle Lusi are very wary of, I decided to explore a little deeper.
After all, my dream is to live a stable life. For future enjoyment, it is necessary to endure some hardship now.
Then--
Sure enough, the mental seal has been lifted.
The last thought stamp has not appeared until now, which makes me a little strange. However, after getting along with each other for a period of time, I have roughly understood that Nolan Lesi is not the cruel demon king with deep palaces as I imagined. Instead, he is in some things. It even seems a bit natural and innocent...
But he is indeed an advocate of violence.
Seeing that the man in front of me was silent, I rudely pulled off the necklace from his neck, then held up the thing with an evil expression and said: "This thing is a very important thing, right? Don't think so. I have no idea!"
The scar-faced man finally showed some hesitation, but his desire for the necklace in my hand was not that high, which made me feel a little strange.
Based on his reaction, I quickly came to a conclusion: This thing does have a story, but does it seem dispensable to a man with a scar face?
This is a bit troublesome.
After thinking for a moment, I sighed secretly in my heart.
Forget it, let’s be direct.
I don't want to waste so much time in a place like this. After all, everyone knows that time is money.
Before the scar-faced man could speak, I slashed his aorta with a clean knife, knocking him unconscious, and then used the familiar technique to recreate time.
Of course it's a simplified version, just to search his memory.
After a while, I rubbed my eyebrows, and my entire consciousness had withdrawn from the soul of the scar-faced man. The scar-faced man was already foaming at the mouth - such an intense memory review had probably destroyed him. His brain is basically an idiot now. I hope he won’t curse me after he goes to hell. If he curses me, I’ll call Kyle Russ to help clean it up...
Although it has an acceleration function, it is still quite long to experience the journey of a man from the first perspective, but it is good to be rewarded for your efforts.
"Well, my guess is correct. There are indeed people secretly here to cause trouble." Fumbling with my chin, I briefly summarized what I saw in the memory of the scar-faced man and said softly, "These robbers are the same as I guessed, except for part of them. Apart from the refugees, most of the remaining people are just hungry people, and a very few are nearby mountain people."
On top of that, there are children inside.
As expected, this cottage is a large courtyard.
Fortunately, I was careful at the beginning and didn't let Nolan Lusi directly rub the fireball and explode it, otherwise I would inevitably regret it when the time comes.
After all, it's too bad to attack children casually no matter what.
"Then, this guy actually came with the intention of causing trouble. The memory of who gave him the task and where has been deleted. Later, after he entered the prison for certain things, he began to encourage his escape. , and finally led a group of fugitives to gather the refugees on the road of exile and came here to occupy the mountain and become the king. And this thing -" I raised the necklace slightly and said, "is the main prop that can control whether to actively attract or generate aliens. The alien monsters we destroyed before were released by him, but I don’t know why we had to gather such a bunch of hungry people and refugees here.”
Just forget about the exiles, thinking that it is easier to do things with more people, but his behavior of gathering hungry people on the way confused me for a long time - after all, hungry people are different from refugees, they have to fill their stomachs, and the most important thing is What's more, these hungry people won't be of much help to him in releasing and attracting alien monsters. Instead, they will be a drag on them.
There is insufficient information. Even after checking this man's memory, I cannot deduce valid information, but I can confirm one thing.
"There are indeed people who intend to use these heterogeneous items to cause trouble."
