050. The Bodyguard
Seeing this, Locke immediately stepped forward, blocked in front of Allen, and drew his long sword at his waist to deal with the cyan moth, while the two guards also swung their swords in the air.
However, the moth did not appear to be a real creature, and gradually disappeared after flying into the air.
The astonishing sight lasted for about a dozen seconds, and when the moths were gone, Field's head hung limply on the torture rack, and blood continued to flow from his mouth and fall to the mud floor, apparently dead no more.
"Young Master, are you alright?" Locke looked at Allen's face and asked with concern.
Alan shook his head, not frightened by the sudden turn of events, but smelled something unusual, the smell of some disgusting troublesome guys.
"Go and call Othman. ”
......
A few minutes later, Osman hurried into the cell, visibly stunned when she saw Field's body.
A small part of it was the little bit of father-daughter friendship that used to be, and more of it was the smell of the corpse.
Ou Siman walked forward slowly, carefully examined Field's corpse, and frowned unconsciously.
"Is it the power of wizards?"
Alan didn't know what the cyan transparent moth was, but he was sure that it wasn't the breath of a magical element, let alone a magic spell, so he immediately thought of wizards, those who were good at using all kinds of special materials and had strange methods.
"Well, it feels like that. ”
Although Ou Siman had not yet mastered the specific witchcraft, she was still familiar with this special aura.
She originally thought that wizards in this world were already extremely rare, but she didn't expect to meet another one so soon.
"It seems that the lord behind this person is very cautious. ”
Alan chuckled and nodded, "Well, it's not just cautious, it's all to the point of being timid, and I don't even dare to reveal my name." ”
At this moment, a sneer suddenly came from the prison next to him, causing everyone to look sideways.
"You don't have to check, that adult is not something you can afford to mess with. ”
The person who spoke was the shadow that was sealed by Locke and firmly locked with iron chains,
"Baron Allen, I advise you to hand over the Valley of Rocks, or the wrath of that Lord will not be something you can bear. ”
Alan didn't answer the shadow's words, and asked rhetorically, "Do you know who that person is?"
"Of course, but I can't say,"
The shadow paused for a moment, glancing at Field's corpse, "Otherwise, you'll be just like him." ”
"Well, you're right. ”
Alan touched his chin, paused for a moment, then turned to Locke and said, "Try all the torture instruments on him in a while, continue if he is still alive, and bury him if he is dead." ”
"Yes, young master. ”
Locke replied, and with a wave of his hand, the two guards immediately went into action.
"You, what are you doing, I'm the shadow guard of the Peters family!"
Shadow struggled to get rid of the two guards, but it was in vain for him to be banned.
"Baron Othman, you can't let him kill me, the Peters family still needs the shadow guard to protect it!"
The existence of the Peters family's shadow guards was also known later, because the strength of the Peters family members was generally low, so he specially provided these shadow guards to deal with foreign enemies.
However, over the years, the shadow guard has become more and more arrogant, relying on family rules, and is very arrogant.
Ou Siman has Hannah, and he is not very cold to the shadow, and he is even more disgusted after seeing his arrogant appearance, so when the shadow calls her, Ou Siman spreads his hands and says that he doesn't care.
"With a strength like yours, I can have as much as I want, and I can use you to protect it?"
Field's mysterious death made Alan feel very bad, and at this time the shadow was still putting on an arrogant appearance, obviously killing himself.
"I, I ......"
The shadow was stumbling for a long time, and he didn't know what to say, he was indeed defeated at the hands of Allen's subordinates.
"This is a matter for the Peters family, you don't need to ask, otherwise ......"
"In the future, I will have the final say in the Peters family, and there will be no more shadow guards in the future. ”
Alan didn't even look at the shadow, and walked straight out of the prison, leaving behind the shadow screaming.
Later, tormented by several guards, Shadow finally tried to confess in the middle of the night, but like Field, he died of a cyan moth as soon as he spoke.
The next day, when he heard Locke's report, Alan was not surprised, he had already believed that Shadow, like Field, had been set up by strange witchcraft to tell the truth.
It's just that Alan really can't get used to the arrogant appearance of the shadow, so he uses him to vent his anger.
"Young Master, what should I do now?"
Alan shook his head, "Let's call everyone to the council hall and talk together and see if there are any ideas." ”
He didn't have a clue right now, and planned to learn about the current state of the territory first, and then brainstorm ideas.
"Okay, young master. ”
Locke answered and went out to find someone, and Alan went straight to the hall with nothing to do.
Unless otherwise specified, Locke, Cobb, Hermit, Guy, Osman, and the elven princess Olya are on the agenda.
As for Horn and Dinah, the former remembered his hometown and returned to Musenburg, while the latter plunged into the ocean of the magic array and did not want to come out.
In addition, when making some arrangements, occasionally Alan would call in the other ten people who were loaded with runes.
However, when Olya came today, there was a half-elf girl with a green face and a somewhat sharp gaze.
"Olya, you're ......"
"This is the crescent moon, the personal guard I found for you. ”
After Olya's introduction, a smile appeared on the half-elf girl's face and she saluted respectfully.
Two consecutive sneak ins alerted Olya, and after learning about last night's events, she immediately began to worry about Alan's safety.
Unlike swordsmen like Locke and Cobb, Allen, as a spellcaster, does not have the means to detect hidden dangers like Olya, and encountering an assassin is bound to be life-or-death.
Therefore, Olya deliberately chose a shrewd half-elf to be used as a personal guard for Alan.
After Olya introduced the half-elf girl, Alan didn't answer, and Cobb next to him took the lead in speaking, "I have to protect the leader, what other guards do you need?" ”
"You're just guarding Alan when he's traveling, and Crescent Moon has to be by his side at all times. ”
"I can also follow the leader anytime and anywhere!"
Olya glanced at Cobb and explained helplessly: "Anytime, anywhere, it means at any time, even when Alan sleeps, he must accompany him." ”
"I can sleep with my boss too......"
"That's it!"
At this time, Alan immediately interrupted the conversation between the two with a low voice, and if he continued, he was really afraid that Cobb would accompany him while he was sleeping, so that the strong sour smell on Cobb's body would become a lingering shadow on Allen's life.
