"We're from Icewind Castle. Charlotte replied half-truthfully, "I'm a merchant of strange things, and these two are the mage guards I hired in Icewind Castle. As for her. ”

Charlotte hugged Elle, who was eager to try in her eyes, "She's my daughter Elle." ”

The soldiers looked Vivien and Lolita up and down, their faces were ordinary, their figures were not very good, and they didn't expect to be mage guards, which made the soldiers who were originally eager to try a little unhappy.

"What merchant would take his daughter on a journey in a war-torn country?" said the officer, staggering on his dehaired horse, "and he did not take the official road, but only in the wilderness." ”

He looked at Charlotte, and his eyes did not shine with wisdom, but with treachery and greed that were specifically provoked.

"I'm a merchant of curiosities, and as the name suggests, the goods I buy and sell are not ordinary goods. It's some wild herbs, or items with historical value and magical atmosphere, so sometimes the official path is not a good choice for me. Charlotte replied without humility or arrogance, "As for taking my daughter with me, it's because my guards and I are somewhat self-preservation, and it's not safe enough to leave a child as young as her in Icewind Castle." ”

"Really, what's your name? ”

"Leonard, my name is Leonard, my lord. ”

"What about you two?" the officer looked at the two women again.

"Vivien. "Lolita. "They didn't hide it, because they were still unknown.

The officer thought for a moment, and Charlotte thought he was wondering if he had heard the names of the trio. The proof is that after a short period of consideration, he changed to a disgusting face.

"I suspect you have something to do with the recent murder in the city of Laleye. Soldiers, arrest them for me and bring them back to investigate!"

A dozen or so soldiers were about to act, but Lolita angrily stopped them.

"Why! You have no evidence and you want to arrest us?"

"I suspect you have something to do with the murder, and this is the evidence!" replied the officer with a non-smiling smile, and in an obscene, ugly tone, "of course, if you can present some strange things as evidence, and let these girls play with me, it will prove that you are indeed a good and law-abiding and non-offensive citizen." ”

Vivien and Lolita were furious, and Elle bared her teeth like an angry leopard.

"We don't need proof. Charlotte laughed angrily.

"Oh, it looks like you're really with ......," the officer's threatening words were blank before Charlotte's mind went blank with shock.

"Because we are not law-abiding citizens!"

As soon as the words fell, Lolita fired a magic bullet at the chest of the officer on the inferior horse. Vivien cast a spell together, instantly summoning a magic vine to wrap around the soldiers who had not yet reacted.

The most ferocious of all was Elle, who did not use the more explosive fireball technique, but used the powerful concentrated acid technique to spray corrosive sulfuric acid at the soldiers, and the group of soldiers entangled in vines were corroded by the acid and their skin melted, their muscles rolled and rolled on the ground and wailed.

The officer who was hit by the magic bullet had a dented breastplate but was not dead for a while, and while he fell on his back, the sole of his right foot was stuck in the stirrup and could not be released. The bad horse was so frightened by the sudden change that he screamed miserably, raised his hooves and fled to the official road.

The officer was dragged nearly fifty meters through the mud and rocks in the field before Vivien unleashed a whirlwind to cut off the stirrups. At this time, the lighthouse officer who had just flaunted his might was already with a blue nose, swollen face, and sunken sternum. He had a shattered right shoulder blade, two or three broken ribs, the back of his head was covered in blood, the bridge of his nose was sunken, and even two front teeth were missing.

He no longer has the majesty he had just hauled, but is as hateful and pitiful as a leper dog whose leg has been broken.

Charlotte paced up to him, kicking him in the chest without mercy. The move seemed to disturb the broken rib, causing the latter to cough up blood and let out a miserable, debilitating wail.

Although Charlotte is willing to be kind to others, it does not mean that he is a virgin. This man has no respectable qualities, and he wants to frame others for his own selfish desires. If you change to another group of powerless and powerless merchants, you may be ruined by this scumbag.

"Look. So Charlotte said in a solemn tone, "I didn't lie to you, I really don't need to prove that I'm a good law-abiding citizen, because we're not." But why don't you believe it?"

"I, I believe, I believe, spare me, please spare me......" He obviously struggled to even wail, but when death came, his words were unusually clear. Charlotte had to admire the strength of human desire to survive.

As Sylvia said in her diary, humans are creatures that are always complex. They are busy working for their ideals and goals all day long, but their behaviors are always inefficient and even contrary. For example, this idiot officer, who longs for wealth, power, and beauty, but embarks on this seemingly fast-track shortcut, and ends up harming others and himself, but mistakenly taking his own life.

Charlotte was lamenting the contents of this morning's diary, and did not have time to answer for a moment. I heard Lolita laugh angrily but vengefully, "It's too late to believe now!"

Here, the energetic girl took out the momentum of striking iron in Falling Hammer Town, picked up the stone on the ground and smashed it at the officer's shoulder blade. Unbelievable, she actually dislocated the officer's other shoulder blade.

While Lolita's physical fitness is indeed great, it is not so much so. The only explanation is that this officer neglected to exercise, and was afraid that he had been hollowed out by the wine.

This made Charlotte stunned for a moment, could it be that the lighthouse organization that defeated Elbert was so wasteful, or was the original lighthouse corroded into this way in just a few months?

Charlotte stops Elle's eager revenge and begins to interrogate the officers. From his mouth, he learned that this guy was not a member of the original lighthouse, but a newly recruited lighthouse sheriff. This person has a squire's uncle, but he has a small position, and he is very domineering for a while.

But the good times didn't last long, and the murder in the city of Lalaye a while ago brought his good life to an end. Originally, he was in charge of a street in the town and was domineering, but he was sent by the lighthouse to investigate the suspects in the field, so it is suspected that Charlotte and the others are not all doing nothing.

It's just that he shouldn't use the name of thorough investigation to enrich his own pockets and embarrass others for his own selfish desires. Through interrogation, Charlotte learns that three groups of merchants have been persecuted by this person before them. Goods and money made him a windfall, and in addition, the ladies of the caravan also allowed them to vent their animal desires.

Vivien and Lolita gritted their teeth as they heard this, and the latter was about to learn about the officer's life, but was stopped by a flash of inspiration from Charlotte.

"You just talked about the murder in the city of Laleye, what the hell is going on?"

"Will you let me go?" the officer was tormented to the point of horror and despair, his eyes sunken and his lips trembling as if he were nervous.

It may be a sign of excessive blood loss.

"If you don't say it, you're going to die right away. "To deal with this kind of idiot, Charlotte thinks it is good to let him see the threat in front of him.

"I say, I say!" it works, like a leper dog spit out beans, "the body of a military mage in the city of Lalaye was found in the wilderness, and when he found his body, his blood was gone. ”

Gloria, Charlotte could almost say.

"Wait. Vivien suddenly shouted, "Is the city of Lallaye on the east side?"

"Ahh

"When was that?" Charlotte immediately asked.

"Before, the day before yesterday ~ please, beg for your ......"

In the end, the officer could not escape the fate of death. Charlotte gave him a blow with the half-sword of the Enchanted Hand, and now he had to change his itinerary and rush to the city of Lalaye.

Hopefully, it's still too late.
