"Hey, it makes sense, human beings can really cause trouble." Nolan Lusi hesitated, "We... over there are still complaining about so many things. We don't think the people of Wales are really capable of causing trouble." They are living in dire straits!"
I was just afraid that Nolan would say certain keywords in a slip of the tongue, and I would have to take risks to do certain things.
"Maybe it's quite chaotic over there, but it just looks calmer on the surface, right?" I thought for a long time and finally said pointedly.
Anyway, it’s the kind of words that a thoughtful person can understand as soon as he hears it.
Nolan Lusi groped his chin and nodded affirmatively before saying: "I think it's possible... Mainly because my place is too poor and the place is relatively small. I can basically finish shopping in one day, and basically nothing can happen in the mountains. thing."
How miserable you are...
"What riddles are you doing here?" Although Grace still maintained a suitable smile, it was obvious that the confusion in her was not that great.
"I just accidentally remembered something about my hometown - oh, by the way, there is also this book." I picked up the book on the table and said, "Just now this guy was pretending to be very studious!"
Sure enough, when I finished speaking, Grace's attention had been attracted.
"Speaking of which, what are these strange words?" Grace leaned down slightly, glanced at the inner pages of the book I held in my hand, squinted for a long time and then exhaled and said, "Hey ——It’s so difficult to understand!”
"This should be a relatively simple matter for a formal magician." Nolan Lusi took the book from my hand, flipped through it twice and said, "Well - even if it is based on the original text, it is quite ancient. That kind of thing.”
This is indeed the case, one of the oldest origin legends of magic: the forbidden knowledge that humans acquired by imitating demons during the ignorant period. In addition to the theory of the origin of dragons, the theory of the origin of magic is widely recognized by most magicians, and most magic The original scriptures are all written in ancient devilish language with "power". Magic historians have sorted out the entire development process of ancient devilish language based on the different writing methods of ancient devilish language, and found that there seems to be some kind of development history of this writing. It is circularity in meaning, and it is this circularity that ensures the fact that Devil's language itself has power, and the original scriptures recording magic also have magical knowledge that can be used.
"What's in it?" Grace raised her feet slightly, trying to see something from Nolan Russ, but the book was immediately snatched away by Kyle Russ...
"Oh, these things don't seem to be the complete original content at all, they seem to have been cut out of part." Kellas said quite loudly, "Well - the altar, the sacrifices, the sacrificial dance, it looks like it should be That part of 'Ritual 0' is right!"
"So this is actually some kind of magic?" I thought for a while and inferred the fact, "The incomplete original book records that magic that attracts and attracts aliens can be summoned through certain items that are contaminated with alien auras. , some people discovered this fact and planned to use this kind of thing to achieve some of their own purposes?"
"The mastermind behind them probably doesn't have a high level of power." Nolan Lusi curled her lips and said, "It seems that he is not even the legendary five. After fully understanding all the steps of the ritual, he didn't Clear and simplified ritual steps form magic.”
Sorry for the delay!
I coughed with an embarrassed look on my face, and found that of course Grace was coughing with me.
"In short, he is not an opponent worth fighting. If we meet him in the future, he can be knocked down with just two punches." Nolan Lusi clenched her fist slightly, with an indifferent look on her face.
"...Tie up these guys first." I sighed and said.
Although with the help of Black Thorn, it was quite spectacular when all the people in a large village were taken prisoner. A row of people walked out of the courtyard dejectedly, but the people who cuffed them were There were only a few of us.
This is the gap between the strength of professionals and ordinary people.
Although he wanted to kill those vicious-looking bandits directly, just like Nolan Lusi did before, but if they were already tied up, there was no suitable reason. The only option was to hand them over to Wells. The city guards came to deal with it, and in order to prevent these people from being attached to this place, I acted as a villain and burned the place down.
In the end, a large group of people on the carriage formed a quite conspicuous spectacle. When they arrived at the gate of Wells, they even scared the city guards and thought that some unsighted people were coming to attack the city. Lace has a way of being an inspector, so the sturdy old man from before came and explained a lot and finally let us go.
But the old man also looked helpless.
"Although it is indeed impressive to be able to capture a large group of people with just such a few people, this is not your style at all. Is there anything unhappy recently?"
Grace smiled awkwardly and said, "It's just a little bit of pity. After all, many of them are just children."
The old man was silent for a while and then said: "Pity - it is probably a good thing for you, but if you really choose to join the army in the future, it is better to have less of this kind of thing."
"But after all, you have brought back big trouble. The prisons are already full now. It will probably be a few months before their trial, so the fate of these people will not be much better." The old man looked towards He turned to the direction of the volcano and shook his head slightly, "Although some words are inappropriate to say here, you must know that those nobles will not have any sympathy for such so-called 'untouchables'. I will try my best to help you." Children’s sentences are commuted, and the rest is left to fate.”
After that, he said goodbye and left in a hurry.
He stayed up so late, he looked really busy.
But this is just the current situation in another world.
In my opinion, these nobles are relatively progressive because of the threat of demons, but in many cases they still maintain unnecessary class discrimination and so-called "traditional dogma". Although there are some nobles with broad ideas, they have always maintained Nothing emerged that could impact the entire aristocratic system.
After all, the current nobles are basically meritorious nobles passed down because of their meritorious service in fighting against the demons. They all have a certain foundation of military force, and they are existences that ordinary people cannot compete with.
Therefore, the people at the bottom have even lower thoughts of resistance. After all, these nobles can indeed protect the land and people when there are invaders.
So, the reward had not been delivered the next day.
Grace said that they probably have to wait for their official funding to be approved before shipping, so now they just have to wait.
However, there is no doubt that——
We are free again.
But because there are new research subjects, this period of time is not boring.
Kyle Russ was quite certain about the necklace and said that it smelled like food that had gone sour the night before and had just fallen into the lava. Nolan Russ held the necklace next to it in confusion and studied it for a long time using various detection magics. , and nothing useful was found. The only thing that was certain was that this thing must be very old. It looked like an amulet from some primitive god, similar to the one that others set up for her in the Wells Forest. The little temple is pretty much the same thing.
Nolan Lusi told me that this amulet was probably tens of thousands of years old, so I suddenly became serious when treating it...
After all, this thing is an antique.
Although it is tainted with a foreign atmosphere, to some extent, there are probably many historians or collectors who want to buy it for a big price, right?
Or find a way to understand how the above heterogeneity is composed, and then eliminate it and maybe buy it at a good price?
The material of the amulet feels quite delicate, and it still retains a considerable amount of luster even after such a long time - it is probably made of the bones of some kind of animal, because Kyle stretched out his tongue and licked it just now, which is quite certain. It is said to be the keel.
Hmm... the keel is indeed quite powerful.
What kind of existence is heterogeneity?
I held the amulet and fell into deep thought, carefully recalling the situation when I met the strange monster before.
Is it malicious?
Different from Kellas' metaphysical heterogeneous flavor, I judge that heterogeneous things are more mysterious and mysterious things like "feeling", and as long as I feel malicious, it means that something heterogeneous is about to occur. Apart from--
No, there is one exception.
At one point, I actually felt the malice, but no strange monster appeared.
Teresa.
When I first met Teresa, she did have feelings of hatred. I had already felt that malicious emotion before she came to my hotel. At first, I thought it was because of the unique situation of demons, but now that I think about it, Something seems not quite right...
What I can confirm is that Theresa is definitely not alienated, and Kyle Rath doesn’t smell anything at all.
There must be some difference here.
After thinking about it for a long time, I couldn't come up with anything like the talented protagonists in it. In the end, I could only sigh and give up this path for the time being.
If Teresa is still here, I think I can still study it, but now we are further away from the Demon King's Castle, and with the teleportation circle, after thinking about it, I still don't make up my mind...
"Trouble—" I put down the amulet in my hand, yelled, and leaned back suddenly.
The research failed.
There was nothing we could do about this amulet. Although Kyle Rath could smell the foreign smell on it, the foreignness on this amulet was not something that could be directly revealed, so we wasted several hours just staring at it. This bone is pretty stupid too.
"Don't you see anything? You've been staring at it for half the morning." Nolan Lusi threw a piece of dried meat. After I subconsciously took it, I asked a little strangely, "Where did you find this thing?" ?”
"What did you find? I bought it with money openly." Nolan Lusi said a little unhappy.
·······I was still immersed in research and thinking just now, and the vocabulary has not been updated yet.
It looks like quite ordinary dried pork, with some white crystals on the surface. If I am not mistaken, it is simply pickled with salt.
It didn't look like the quality was good, but in most cases it's a fool's errand to judge the taste of food based on its appearance, so I took a bite anyway.
"...It's so hard. Are you sure it's not for Kyle Brushing to grind his teeth?" I subconsciously said something wrong, so as expected, by the time I reacted, a teacup had already flown over to Kyle Brushing. On one side, he bared his teeth and shouted, "I'm here to grind your teeth! I'm here to grind your whole family's teeth!"
"Ahem, cough, cough, slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue...what the heck, but this thing really isn't very tasty." I said, scratching my cheek in embarrassment.
Nolan Lesi held the dried meat in her mouth, holding the reprinted copy of the original classic that she had taken from the robber's place in her hand, and said with her two calves dangling in the air: "I can't help it, the last time I bought the dried meat, It turned out like this after I left it for a little longer. When I came back, I basically used fresh ingredients. If I didn’t take the time to eat these dried meats, they would be wasted, so I just used them as snacks. .”
Hmm - leftover jerky from last time?
Having said that, I remembered it.
"Would you like to participate in the preparation of the next ingredients?" I asked with a smile as I looked at the few people who seemed to be doing nothing in the hall.
After researching for a long time, I didn’t come up with any useful conclusions, so it’s better to change my mood, right?
"Making ingredients?" Nolan Lesi had a curious look on her face, "What ingredients require so many people to make together?"
"Bacon."
"Peer...meat?" Nolan Russia raised his eyebrows, probably because he had some unnecessary understanding of the word "pork" inside, "Can candles also be used to cook?"
"Of course it can't be done. This wax is not that wax."
"It's so annoying..." Noraleth muttered.
Kyle Russ lay on the sofa and looked at me and said, "Oh, I can do it!"
Grace raised her hands and said, "It doesn't matter what happens to me!"
"I can only move around Crying, so——" Villier smiled apologetically.
Nolan Lusi narrowed her eyes slightly, then threw away the book in her hand quite simply, jumped off the sofa, walked up to me and said, "In that case, let's set off immediately without further ado!"
Surprisingly positive.
But it’s also good to develop the team’s collaboration skills a little bit.
