A reckless man?
I?
John was lost in thought, and he was considering whether to put a tongue-locking spell on the mouth of this foul-mouthed guy.
Seeing that Emily seemed to be desperate, John simply put down the knife.
He asked casually: "What is this place? Who is that Black Iron Blood Lord?"
Emily no longer had any hope, and she didn't want to hide anything anymore.
"This is the Black Hawk Tower. The wizards from the independent wizard faction conducted research here. Later, they made a bold research that caused the wizards in the entire tower to disappear."
Emily knew this place very well. She rolled her eyes at John and said, "As for the Black Iron Blood Lord, he is a very dangerous guy."
"He was originally a viscount in this city. He later kidnapped me and pried open the Black Eagle Tower to enter, hoping to take away the treasures inside."
Speaking of this, Emily sarcastically said: "It's a pity that he was wrong. He thought that by controlling the wizard, he could control magic, and he was turned into a blood lord."
"I didn't expect that I could use magic to close this place so that he can't get out."
"The Blood Lord's weakness is his voice. I used the remaining magic power to summon a banshee, blocked his way out, and blocked the exit with the staff."
Emily laughed at John and said, "It's a pity that you, a reckless man, ruined everything. Now that everything is over, if the Blood Lord finds his body, no one can stop him."
While John was thinking, he raised his head and glanced at Emily strangely, and asked: "Is the Blood Lord you are talking about the guy made of blood?"
"Yes, it's him. He's looking for me everywhere. Fortunately, I hid on the eighth floor and he couldn't find me." Emily responded without noticing anything was wrong.
John looked weird and said: "If it's that guy, he should be dead."
"Don't be ridiculous, how could he..." Emily glared at John dissatisfied.
But soon, Emily realized something, and she asked in horror: "You didn't meet the Blood Lord when you came up?"
"Meet him," John nodded honestly, "I killed him."
"Impossible!" Emily said excitedly, "You are lying to me. It is impossible for ordinary people to kill him."
As she said that, she saw the style of the sword on John's back and screamed in surprise: "Are you a witcher? No, no, even a witcher can't kill him."
Emily had some suspicions that John was trying to trick her into leaving.
But John raised his hand silently, and a flame bloomed in his hand.
"I burned it with fire."
A simple sentence tells the truth.
Emily was confused, why would an exorcist use magic?
It is true that some exorcists have these small methods, but most of them are similar to shock waves.
In the end, Emily accepted the reality.
She doubted life and said: "The person who forced me to be trapped in this tower for a long time was killed like this?"
She thought of something and asked, "Were you the one who cast the spell yesterday?"
John recalled that he had used a cleaning spell.
This left Emily speechless. She thought it was a wizard, so she opened the door specifically to let the wizard in and join forces to deal with the Blood Lord.
As a result, an exorcist came and killed the Blood Lord directly.
This makes Emily's previous efforts look very worthless.
"By the way, where is the ninth floor of this tower?" John still couldn't find the entrance to the ninth floor.
Emily retorted, "There's no ninth floor here."
John thought, there is no ninth level?
Emily stayed here for a long time. Although she was trying to avoid the Blood Lord, she also learned a lot about it.
Most of the Blood Lords stay on the fifth floor, trying to escape from the Black Hawk Tower through the knowledge inside.
The upper floors became a place for Emily to explore.
She can confirm that there is no ninth level here.
This tower was originally built by the wizard independent faction. They had different beliefs from other wizards and wanted to cultivate an army belonging to wizards by occupying the city.
Unfortunately, it was not implemented and all disappeared because the experiment failed.
Emily's background is not small, she is the royal wizard of her country.
He was deceived and told that there were magical creatures causing trouble, but he was kidnapped by the Black Iron Viscount and brought to the Black Eagle Tower.
At the same time, she also had the idea of investigating the Black Hawk Tower.
Putting a notebook on the table on the seventh floor, Emily said: "This is all the information I can find on Black Hawk Tower. Witcher, you solved the Blood Lord. I don't mind sharing a little bit with you." .”
John opened it, and above were the notes Emily collected through the Black Hawk Tower information.
One of the strange words caught John's attention.
"Megalith?"
He looked up at Emily, hoping for an answer.
Emily didn't understand this either, and said: "It seems that the main research direction of Black Hawk Tower is the monolith, and the ninth floor you call should be the place where the monolith is studied."
"The disappearance of that group of wizards is most likely related to the giant stone monument."
John nodded when he heard this, and then put the book into his pocket very naturally.
Emily's eyes widened, "What are you doing?"
"Isn't this the reward you gave me?" John waved his hand generously, "I don't want the money anymore, just use this to pay off the debt."
Call me a groundhog, right?
I generally don't hold grudges, and I usually take revenge on the spot.
Emily bared her teeth and claws to snatch it back, but was suppressed by John with one hand.
In the end, there was nothing she could do, so Emily promised that she would make a new copy and give it to John.
...
The two walked out of the black tower.
Emily has been away for too long, and she needs to go back and report to the king as soon as possible.
"If you really want to know about the ninth floor, then go to the Royal Capital, there might be someone there who knows." Emily said before leaving.
She asked John to buy the staff, and John knew she was hiding something.
It's for the staff, which was left behind by the independent wizard.
The key inside has been taken away by himself, so the staff is of no use.
In addition, this thing is not suitable for John, he is accustomed to using a wand.
So John simply opened his mouth and asked Emily not only to walk back to the capital, but also to owe John a large sum of gold.
After solving the banshee and blood lord, Kang Sang's haze has not dissipated.
John knew that this was because of the existence of the Black Tower. As long as the tower existed, it would keep Kang Sang in this state.
Staring at the black tower, John finally ignored it.
He wasn't sure if destroying the Black Tower would have more serious consequences.
He returned to the tavern and found that the tavern was particularly lively today.
The smile on Heiberg's face never stopped, and he drank one glass after another while receiving copper and silver coins.
This is completely different from yesterday.
Libby was also given a free glass of wine by Heiberg who was in a good mood. It was the first time Libby tried this taste and it was so spicy that she burst into tears.
Seeing John coming back, Libby immediately ran over.
He said excitedly: "The banshee is dead, and we heard her cry before she died."
I don’t know whether it was because of drinking or excitement, Libby’s cheeks were red.
When John heard this, he remembered that the deaf horse was still there at the statue.
Just as he was about to look for it, he saw the deaf horse slowly eating hay in the stable.
Noticing that John didn't show any surprise, Libby asked in a low voice: "Is it you, Yadani?"
John knew what he was talking about and smiled: "What do you think?"
This got Libby even more excited and he chased John to ask how he did it.
Meanwhile, Libby made a decision.
He wanted to give the horse to John, a decision that surprised John.
"Without the Banshee, I won't be able to stay in my position for long." Libby smiled bitterly, "I can't afford to support her."
Hearing this, John patted Libby on the shoulder sympathetically.
But Libby is not disappointed. Compared to the Banshee, his unemployment is nothing.
He just gave it away for free and refused to take any money.
"Although no one knows, I will still thank you for your efforts." Libby said firmly.
"Okay, then I'll accept it."
John agreed and watched Libby run over and hold the glass of wine like a treasure.
After nightfall, he found Heiberg who was busy.
Wait until the next day.
John patted the deaf horse's head, and Libby never named it because it couldn't hear.
"I'll call you, Polo," said John.
He mounted Polo and headed out toward Kang Sang.
Libby packed her things in the stable, but she didn't actually have much.
After losing his job, he could not even pay the rent of a copper coin.
When he was about to leave, he was stopped by Heiberg.
"Where are you going?" Heiberg asked with a grim expression.
Libby was a little at a loss, and she stammered: "I, I don't have any money to pay the rent."
Heiberg picked up Libby, but instead of throwing him out, he entered the tavern and threw him into the hotel room.
"You will live here from now on." Heiberg yelled, pretending to be mean. "I'll give you a day off and start working in the tavern tomorrow!"
"But didn't you say that I'm too bad to recruit me?" Libby asked in a low voice.
Heiberg's eyes widened and he cursed: "So many people come to drink, do you want to exhaust me to death?"
"I'm going to work tomorrow, and I'm telling you, if you break something, you'll have to pay for it!"
Heiberg finished speaking and left the room.
Libby felt like she was in a dream.
He was on the bed and suddenly felt something hitting his buttocks. He got up to check.
On the bed lay five gold coins, which were the money for selling the horse.
...
For a wizard, it's unlikely to get lost.
John rode a horse through dangerous and rugged mountain roads.
Walking along the map, he entered a forest.
"This place is quite similar to the Forbidden Forest."
Looking through the book given by Emily, John pondered.
"Kingdom?"
...
Some people died, but not completely...
