Chapter Sixty-Nine: Ancient Evil
After putting down the three people who besieged him, Luden didn't say a word, silently walked out of the crowd of onlookers, sat on a chair in a corner, ordered a glass of ale, and drank it silently.
Amid a chorus of boos for the three people lying on the ground, the crowd dispersed and returned to their original tables to continue eating and drinking.
And some of the people who took the opportunity to open the betting plate were busy settling the accounts, and the people who bet on Ludon to win were of course smiling and getting a windfall income, but the group that besieged Ludon was more likely to curse the five soft-eyed eggs and return to their table with a gloomy face.
At the same time, Luden also received a small bag containing a lot of coins, and in his confusion, the person who sent the money naturally explained the unwritten rule of opening the game in this tavern, that is, the winner of the bet was 30%, the tavern side was 30%, and the opener was 40%, ......
At this moment, under the leadership of the two muscular guards, dressed in well-made leather armor, and their hands pressed on the cold and shining dagger at their waists, a group of handymen poured out of the back kitchen of the tavern under the leadership of the tavern guards who scanned the surroundings from time to time.
They skilfully cleaned the messy floor, cleaned up the signs of the fight, and quickly replaced the tables, chairs, and doors that had been shattered in the fight.
And for those five guys who collapsed on the ground and were thrown out of the door?
The handymen were also very skillful in untying the money bags from their waists as compensation for the damaged items, and after cursoly treating their wounds, they threw the three in the tavern out of the door like sacks, leaving them to paralyze outside the door!
With the departure of the guards and servants, the tavern gradually returned to its usual hustle and bustle, after all, the regular fights in the tavern were just fun things for these professionals, and they could not be taken to heart.
Of course, many people saw Ruden's skills and came forward to test whether they could recruit him and add a strong player to their team.
Luden had a low face, putting on a look of being intimate, no matter who came to tempt him, he didn't say a word, and naturally no one would be willing to come soon.
And when those who came to tempt him left, Luden's place turned out to be a forgotten corner, silent and empty, out of step with the noise of the people around him.
But at this moment, a footstep gradually approached Ruden!
Sensing that someone was coming, Ludon raised his head slightly, and instinctively wanted to spit out a word coldly: "Get out!"
But a voice rang out before it could come out of his throat: "Dear Mr. Ruden Sager, please give me a few seconds. ”
"I'm just here to send you something again, bring a few words, and leave right away. ”
Hearing that someone had accurately called out his name in this strange place, Luden's eyes suddenly widened, and his sharp eyes stared straight at the comer, as if he would attack like a beast in the next second.
At this time, Ludon realized that the person who had just sent the gambling money had come, and in his left hand he was holding a large glass of colorless and transparent, but it was filled with a very mellow aroma of wine, and in his right hand was a note that was obviously freshly written.
Under the intimidation of Luden's momentum, his whole body trembled uncontrollably.
Under the previous impression, Luden silently restrained the momentum he was exuding, raised his chin slightly, and motioned to put the thing down.
After getting permission, this person seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, knowing that what was in front of him was only an extremely strong man. After putting down the wine and note in his hand, he quickly said, "A mysterious person just gave me ten gold coins and said your name......
"All he wanted me to do was to send you a glass of Northland pine nut wine and give you this note, and said that if you don't read it, you'll regret it......"
After saying these two words, the man bowed slightly to Luden as if he was about to be amnestied, and left quickly.
Ludon was horrified that there was someone in this strange city who could clearly know his name, and if this mysterious man could know the type of wine he loved the most, then of course he could know the others......
With a look of surprise, Ludon did not move his favorite glass of Northland cold pine nut wine, but first slowly opened the note that was obviously written for no more than ten minutes, and as soon as his eyes came into contact with the beginning of the information in the note, his eyes widened, and his mood fluctuated for a while, and the strength of his hand was not well controlled, and he actually crushed the thick wooden wine glass in his hand with a "bang"!
At the beginning of the note, only a pitch-black sea urchin-like creature is outlined, but unlike the hard black thorns covered by the sea urchin, this creature's body is densely covered with pitch-black tentacles, and under the dense tentacles is the spherical body of this creature, with a single eye shining with greed, distortion, and cruelty.
The portrait of this creature is extremely expressive, it can be said to be lifelike, even the slight arc of the tentacles is clearly depicted.
Then there is a lingua franca explanation underneath it - "Sorcerer's Relic - Ancient Evil [Heartsnatcher]"
In addition, there was only one sentence on the note - "If you want to know more, then wait at the city gate now, and when the time comes, there will be guidance!"
Ludon stood abruptly, scanning around the tavern with his piercing gaze. His movements were so sudden that even the hood of the cloak he was wearing slipped off, revealing his face with the hard lines of a knife and axe, two straight eyebrows like swords, and a restrained but sharp aura on his body.
Surprisingly, Ludon's jaw protrudes slightly, there are two tiny sharp fangs protruding from the corners of his mouth, and the skin color on his face is also a little gray, these features indicate that Ludon is undoubtedly a half-orc!
But it may be that his orc blood is very thin, and the main characteristics of these half-orcs are also very weak, and it seems that his overall appearance is closer to that of a human!
At the same time, a weapon that was tightly wrapped around his back with a strip of gray cloth revealed as the hood fell......
And why is Ludon so gaffe?
That's because Ludon left his hometown and traveled to the continent of Noranda in search of a way to kill the ancient evil creature, the Whisperer of the Heart, that was constantly encroaching on his hometown!
The twisted creatures created by these ancient sorcerers after studying the gods are extremely evil, with all kinds of evil and mysterious abilities, and they are even created to fight against the gods, and they are also infused with divine power, divinity, and godhead by the sorcerers!
They have a strong life force, they can't be killed by ordinary means, and destroying their bodies can only weaken them, but they can still be resurrected, and only gods with the priesthood of killing and death can completely kill them!
Therefore, the gods usually take the way to seal these ancient evil things, and the sealing time is long until the energy of the ancient evil things is exhausted, and they will naturally die.
However, there were always some ancient evil creatures that escaped due to various reasons during that long period of time, and continued to cause trouble, and it is clear that Ludon's hometown has unfortunately appeared such an ancient evil [Heart Whisperer]......
