Chapter Eighty-Six: The Haunted House in the Old Town
In the alleys of the outer city, Elle sneered into the streets. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Info Then she retracted her head like a mole and spread her hands at the few people hiding in the alley.
"I have good news and bad news, which do you want to hear first?"
"It doesn't matter, there's no worse news than the annihilation of my valiant warriors. "Teklin looked like he had nothing to love.
Charlotte looked at Elle with a headache, "Don't play tricks, let's talk about it, Miss!"
Elle was about to hold back a few words, but saw Daphne on the side inadvertently touch the double knives on her waist. She shuddered, and immediately replied in one breath at a very fast pace, "The good news is that there are battles everywhere in the city, and the bad news is that the city gate is closed, and the tunnel opened by the brainless dwarves is also guarded. ”
"Good!" Daphne glanced at Charlotte and Teklin with her hands on her chest, "It seems that I will not be able to escape from the city of Fortarazi with a bunch of burdens. ”
Charlotte sneered, and was about to say, 'I don't need you to bring it', but suddenly saw two disciples beside her who were at a loss. At this moment, his face suddenly turned pale, and he didn't dare to say anything.
Speaking of which, I have to explain the situation after escaping the inner city.
After several people join forces to flee the inner city, Kathryne, who is still wary of Charlotte, quickly bids farewell to the group. After seeing that Charlotte was not embarrassed to leave, the arrogant mage lady threw down a sentence, "Although you have helped me, don't think that I will thank you, I will definitely catch you when we meet in the future!"
After saying such arrogant words, he turned and left.
Then, Charlotte, Daphne and Teklin rushed to the slum to pick up Vivien and Lolita, and then the next scene happened.
Although she was reluctant to admit it, Charlotte also knew that she really couldn't rush through the level in her current state. He himself was not afraid, but if he let two disciples die here, it would be really regrettable.
Charlotte thought for a moment, and had to say to Daphne and Teklin in annoyance, "It seems that I can't get out in my current state, I do know that there is a good place to evacuate, but the owner of that house is a little difficult to handle." What about you? What are you going to do?"
Devonne, who was holding her chest, pretended to pout her lips with disdain, "I don't care personally, it's just that with Teklin's current state, I'm afraid I won't be able to break through the level, right?"
"Hmph, don't pretend there, how much better can you be than me!" Teklin scolded Daphne and quickly said to Charlotte, "Ignore her, let her get through the level, I'll see how she gets out." You wouldn't mind taking me, would you? Brother Charlotte. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Teklin's head was struck by the hilt of Daiffne's knife, which struck Teklin with the hilt like a mole, and the pale golden eyes glared at the boss angrily, "Do you think it's because of this princess that you're going to participate in this war!"
The dispute between them finally made Charlotte, a mage, understand that the endurance of the warriors was not much better than that of the mage.
Needless to say, putting aside the opinions of the two little mages and Elle, and still unable to contact Sylvia, Charlotte had to lead a few people through the dirty alleys like thieves, and came to the green glow tree in the old city rather helplessly.
The green glow tree looked to be some years old, and the thick trunk that required two grown men to hug each other was streaked with nodules, and the lush foliage shimmered with a miserable green light. There is a lonely single-family house in disrepair next to it, and for some reason, the city of Futarazi can actually tolerate this seeping haunted house affecting the city.
The painted window panes of the bungalow had long since been broken, and only scattered diamond-shaped glass shards remained stubbornly embedded in the window frames. The grass outside the bungalows was knee-high, and in the already dark underworld, the half-open old wooden doors looked terrifying.
Devany motioned for Teklin to push open the webbed door, and the dwarf glanced at Charlotte, only to be blown up by the latter's sudden collapse on Vivien and Lolita's shoulders. So he muttered and kicked the wooden door, which was already in disrepair, with a big hole.
The little short legs were stuck in the wooden door, and the spiders on the spider web were crawling around in panic. Tyklin screamed in anger and slapped the edge of the door with both palms, knocking the entire wooden door to the ground.
The rotten wooden door kicked up a thick layer of dust, and Daphne subconsciously covered her nose and jumped to the side, frowning unhappily and said, "What kind of place did you bring us to? ”
"There are no female ghosts, but there is one mad lich. Charlotte, who was leaning on her two disciples and pretending to be weak, replied weakly.
Tycklin, who had just stepped into the bungalow, jumped out like an electric shock, looked at Charlotte in disbelief, and shouted incoherently, "What! Mad Lich Heywood!?
"I'm not crazy. When the dust cleared, Charlotte walked into the dilapidated bungalow, and his muffled voice came from within, "What else can I do? Now that the city is under martial law, can we still have a hard fight with the whole city in our current state? Besides, I have a little relationship with Heywood." ”
"What's the relationship!?" Standing outside the door, Tyklin's black bean-like eyes were full of fear, and he wanted to grab Daphne who was about to go in, but the latter avoided him in disgust, so he had to follow Daphne and explain endlessly, "I tell you, there is no normal person who can have anything to do with Heywood!
Daphne didn't bother to bother with him, and the princess, fanning her right hand in front of Joan's nose, stepped into the abandoned bungalow. Elle snorted disdainfully, stepping on Daphne's dusty footprints and walking into the bungalow.
Tekelin was left alone in the doorway for a moment, and finally shook his head and patted his thigh and walked through the door.
However, several people looked up and down, but the bungalow was empty.
Tyklin was relieved to see that he hadn't seen the legendary mad lich, and he encouraged the crowd, "Why don't we get out of here, it's oozing and dusty, and it doesn't look like a human being, does it?"
The dwarf was really frightened by the ghost stories of his childhood, and he still retained the terrifying impression of the legendary mad lich that his mother would take disobedient children back to be dissected.
No one paid any attention to him, after all, the whole city was now under martial law, except for the old town, which was connected to the slums, which was relatively loosely guarded, and now the city was full of Drow and their slave warriors. Obviously, when the two sides of the battle are decided, the area around the old town, which is now relatively safe, will also be closely searched.
But Teklin was still chattering, and Charlotte, who couldn't stand it, rubbed her swollen head and explained helplessly to the dwarf.
"Shut up, Teklin. I don't want to face Heywood either, but I don't think he's going to do anything to us. After all, to some extent, I'm still his personal disciple!"
"W-What!?" Teklin jumped high in shock, "Aren't you the mages of Icewind Castle?
"I'm a mage from Icewind Castle, but, alas, it's hard to put into words. Charlotte explained helplessly.
"Hmph! They have a lot of secrets about the Clayderman family! Can they tell you these things?" said Daphne, who seemed to be elegant and charming, but in fact had a terrible personality, fanning the flames.
"Wait, wait!" Teklin made a pause gesture with his short, stout hand, as he looked at Devona, who was frowning, tilting his head and glaring, "What did you just say his last name?"
Charlotte, who had a premonition that she would have to spend more time on her lips, couldn't help but roll her eyes.
