|||->->The person kneeling next to him must have become demented. Although there are not enough samples tested, Lin Ke does not believe that ordinary people can enter and exit the high-dimensional world without any protection without any damage.
The two rows of soldiers in front of them seemed to be very puzzled by the sudden appearance of a man who looked very much like his own knight master, kneeling next to the magician. Almost everyone turned their heads and looked at where the lord was. Unfortunately, the horseback was empty.
For a while, everyone was still confused and couldn't figure out what happened.
But for Lin, he was equally puzzled. The two girls who were not protected before and were shown several times were vomited to the point where they even vomited bile. But this one didn't react at all. Could it be that the knight's physique was better, so he could withstand such ravages better?
Suddenly there was a burst of strange laughter, followed by unknown syllables, which sounded like talking. Someone just felt something bad and roughly took off the knight's helmet. That face was still a human face, but his neck was turned at an extraordinary angle. His eyes looking at Lin were dark, with several small white pupils in between.
This situation gave someone a chill. This is even more serious than high-dimensional pollution, and they are all possessed by weird things.
According to the original plan, the knight's head was cut off with one sword. Lin also brutally stomped on his head, but this behavior was neither consistent with Mi Di's style nor was it planned.
Generally speaking, battles between the same race will at least respect the dead; this is only possible in battles between different races, or when they are blood feuds or sworn enemies.
But because the face looked so scary. Lin didn't know if there would be any adverse effects if the head was left behind. The head must be connected to the body to survive, that is human beings. This is not necessarily the case for non-human beings.
But there are benefits to such a brutal act. At least someone was staring fiercely at these hundreds of soldiers and the villagers from the mining village who originally lived here. Just one look made them scatter in fear.
In fact, this is a very understandable situation. When the person they serve dies, there are only two situations. One is to turn to serve the heir of that person, if there is one; the other is that the birds and animals disperse and everyone returns to their own homes. Unless they are relatives, there will be no subordinates shouting for revenge, and they are not qualified.
It is unlikely that this group of people would take the initiative to spread this kind of thing to the higher-level nobles. If you are questioned why the lord died but you are still alive and well, there are many people who have been hanged for this reason.
Most importantly, what did this magician do? No one can understand. How did his lord kneel next to that one? How did the assassin assistant that my knight master was so proud of disappear into thin air? Where did they go?
Although Master Mi Di's style of painting is that after giving himself a set of supports, he rampages around like a berserker. But there is another kind of magician that is even more frightening, the one who doesn't know what he is doing and his own people die inexplicably.
The fear caused by the unknown is the same no matter where and when. And this time, although the knight was the only one who died, the inexplicable way of death still panicked this group of young men who had turned from ordinary farmers into soldiers, most of whom had never fought before. Their only thought was to stay away from the magician.
Because of this, a certain time traveler who had the courage to act like a gangster successfully achieved his goal with the least number of killings. The only dead were a noble knight and the villagers of the original mining village, those who failed to escape from Fen's grasp. Oh, and those hapless assassins who were thrown into the middle of nowhere.
However, the changes in this knight also brought some warnings to Lin. The pollution in the high-dimensional world was more complicated than he imagined. It seems that I can't easily bring anything back from that world. Otherwise, unfortunately, some things that cannot be dealt with will be included, and the consequences will be disastrous.
On the other hand, Lin also looked towards the depths of the mine, where there was darkness. I wonder if what happened here will offend the lord above this knight. If no one blocks things here, the news will reach the ears of the great lords sooner or later. If the matter of a magic stone mine was revealed, those nobles who were no different from jackals would not remain silent.
I hope to leave this place before more troops surround me. But the answer to this question depends on when Fen completes her ritual. This lich who is good at calculations did not calculate an approximate time, so the three masters and disciples could only wait. Hopefully it won't be ten months or three years or something.
Clean up the scene, and give yourself a place to park the carriage, and add a few more illusion decorations. Lin also made a special trip to the place where a bunch of human piles were originally standing. Not surprisingly, most people broke free and left. But there were still a lot of blood stains and severed limbs on the ground.
The wild beasts and magical beasts in the Lost Land are very bold, and the location of this village deep in the mountains and forests is far from safe. Even if he didn't see what happened at the scene, Lin could roughly imagine the pile of immovable human piles. I'm afraid many people were taken away by hungry beasts. Someone might even be bitten to death and eaten on the spot.
Also clean up the mess, because the smell of blood can easily attract wild beasts. Although Lin is not afraid, it doesn't mean that he likes to be disturbed by things that don't have eyes. The best way is, of course, to remove some unnecessary incentives. In addition, I have to stay here for who knows how long. It is not an exaggeration to maintain my surroundings and be kind to myself.
And somewhere where he couldn't see, there was a group of people hiding in the shadows, holding their breath and talking briefly with gestures. However, it seems that good communication cannot be achieved by using gestures, and the gestures are almost thrust into other people's faces. So they backed away a long distance and glared at each other.
"Little John, how do you explain our losses?"
"What do you want to explain? We are trying to assassinate a magician, not a fat noble, and losses are to be expected. If this bounty is so easy to obtain, do you think it will be our turn to get it?"
It should be a reasonable answer, but the people surrounding a certain thief were still furious. Someone loudly reprimanded: "This magician is obviously very weak, but he uses a method that no one can understand to make our subordinates disappear. No one knows where they have gone. Isn't this because your information is wrong? Let us Suffering unnecessary losses. I still remember clearly that among the missing people, there are no subordinates of yours."
"Why do I remember that the one who rushed to launch the first wave of attacks was not me; it was not even my idea to deliberately exclude my people. Besides, I never said that this magician was weak. , although in the internal information of the guild in the southwest peninsula, if he does not consider the magic tower, he is just a magician who only dares to cause trouble for goblins."
Someone rushed to answer, trying to set the tone. "That's right, he is obviously a weakling."
Little John sneered a few times and said: "Do you think that as the original tower owner of the Tower of the Great Sage, the man who put on an abyss fireworks show really didn't have any means that outsiders didn't know about? Not to mention the man around him The lich she followed was the demon king Tikal from thousands of years ago. Maybe she no longer gathered dark forces to invade the whole world, but the man who could follow her would be easily killed by a few newly minted 'little thieves' ?”
The deliberately accentuated tone made a group of angry people feel filled with hatred and regret, and they were unable to respond for a long time.
"If you ask me, the idea of placing this honor on my nephew is extremely stupid. Why do you think I dare not act alone and win this bounty alone, and why I eagerly find a group of you to follow? I'll share the spoils. Do you think that's too much money?" Little John gave the final blow unceremoniously.
In fact, among the people Little John has recruited, there are many enemies who have interests disputes with him and who are usually beaten to death. But the bounty of Xbar Kil (10,000 gold) made everyone put aside their grudges temporarily and come together.
Even so, several people who were less able to deal with Little John vaguely united to squeeze him out when making plans. Others have their own positions, and most people choose not to help each other. The group of people who were friendly with Little John also saw that the victim was not forcing himself to come forward, so they did not jump out to object.
In terms of results, it was the group of people who jumped the most cheerfully who suffered the most losses. The people who disappeared were all from their own hands, and even a few of their relatives. As for Little John's approach, even those who don't like this man very much have to admire him.
There is also some information about the magician within the guild. But who can guarantee that they fully master all the trump cards of a magician? If there is, then the magician probably won't live long. The mystery of the Masters comes more from the richness of their methods. No matter how reckless a person is, they will always have some life-saving tricks hidden under the box.
So in this situation, how can you increase your chances of winning? Of course, human lives were used to explore the path. The best case scenario is to use other people's lives to explore the way. Therefore, when Little John chose to give in before, the price he paid was only the possible benefits, which would be taken away by others. If that magician is just a paper tiger.
But it turns out that the reward didn't fall into anyone's hands.
This made several more cautious old thieves recall the information about this magician once again. There was obviously a magic tower that could stand alone against the invasion of the abyss, but it withdrew because of a piece of paper from the Magicians Association. He has the ability to not be afraid of anyone, but he sadly withdrew from the competition at the Xijia District Academy more than a year ago.
Was he pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger before? So what is the reason for being so tough this time?
I heard that there is a vein of magic stone in that mine. But looking at the other party's appearance, it didn't look like he was going to stay for a long time to occupy this mine.
Judging from today's performance, there is no chance for a frontal attack. Maybe at night, a stealth assassination would be possible. But the bigger opportunity should come when they leave this mine and enter the city. A good opportunity for poisoning and assassination.
