What appears in front of you is like a common mission description in games. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
GodTM Mission!?
There were waves in his heart again, but Rosen's face was still dead, and he only moved his shoulders slightly, which made Grantia tremble.
Is this really some kind of advanced game? I was kidnapped on my way home from shopping and forced to test in this game?
Rosen thought of the passage in the novel for no reason, and then secretly laughed at his own brain.
Since there are no other goals for the time being, Lawson, who is familiar with all kinds of games, naturally focuses on the tasks given by the system, after all, compared to killing enemies alone to earn souls, the task can give 2000 souls at a time, which is simply a double earning.
Originally hoping to earn enough points to hunt beasts in the forest before exploring the outside world, it seems that this task has to be the first priority at the moment.
What's more, the punishment of that weak state is also unacceptable to Rosen, he is a skeleton that he fights alone, if he loses the ability to fight again, even if he will not survive at dawn.
But then again, it's still a question of where the so-called Bunagin is in this mission, but the soon-to-be-assassinated Lord Ryan Ulysses sounds familiar?
After thinking about it for a while, Rosen realized that the blood-stained girl in front of him seemed to be surnamed Ulysses.
The surnames of the nobles are rarely repeated, and Rosen has reason to believe that the two must be inextricably linked.
Could it be such a coincidence that he happened to save the key person?
Rosen subconsciously tilted his head, and the dark blue ghost fire shone in the increasingly dark forest, making Grantia unconsciously shiver.
No, no, no, you can't ask the girl in front of you directly, Rosen thought to himself, it would be fine if he was a normal human being, but now as a skeleton, one of the mortal enemies of mankind, if he inquired about the news without thinking, he knew with his knees that the other party would never tell him the truth, and he might even lead himself into a trap.
But the clues that were finally obtained, Rosen was not willing to give up so casually.
After thinking for a moment, Rosen had an idea.
He glanced again at Grantia, who was sitting on the ground, disheveled, the girl was slightly panicked, muttering prayers, but she was powerless to pose any real threat to Lawson.
has already made up several of her next encounters based on the various legendary novels she reads on weekdays, and Grantia, who is uneasy in her heart, can't help but close her eyes.
"Touch, tentacles or something, insects or something, I won't just give in to this, ......"
But what was expected didn't seem to happen.
Only, there was a small footstep in my ears, and I gradually walked away.
"Huh?"
When she opened her eyes, Grantia saw the terrible skull and left without looking back, walking towards the depths of the forest, showing no interest in herself.
"Wait ......"
Before she could say anything, Grantia swallowed the rest into her stomach, the undead are always the enemies of humanity, and even if this skeleton rescued herself, she couldn't completely reverse the impression for a while.
It's just that, in her heart, Grantia seems to have a little new understanding of the creature of the undead, or the skeleton swordsman of Lawson.
In the distance, as if the shouts of the parade guards were heard, Grandia struggled to her feet, glanced again in the direction of Lawson's departure, pursed her lips, and finally turned around and walked towards the call.
It's just that she didn't notice at all that Rosen wasn't too far away, but hid in the shadows of the forest and secretly followed Grantia.
Since you can't ask directly, then let her go, and Lawson only needs to follow Grantia to go to Nabunagin and see the target of the mission.
Unable to deduce the difficulty of the task, Lawson could only observe in secret and keep a low profile.
He saw that Miss Grandia was soon confronted by the roving guards in half-armor, and after some explanation, he was escorted by several men and rode along the main road, presumably moving towards Bunajien.
And Lawson relied on the undead's keen aura perception of the living, and followed closely at a certain distance.
This forest seems to be a frontier area of civilization, and Lawson encounters many untouched monsters and human corpses along the way, although these corpses have valuable treasures, but due to the danger in the forest, it seems that even scavengers dare not enter the depths of the forest at will to reap benefits.
When he saw the torn armor, an idea suddenly struck him.
Following Grandia all the way, Lawson picked up the ownerless armor and put it on his body, and then filled some overly wide parts with linen, because the armor was mostly damaged and incomplete, under the patchwork, Lawson showed a bit of a mix of funny, not like a knight, but more like a clown in the circus.
But Rosen doesn't care, as long as he doesn't look like he's a skeleton.
At the same time, the coins on these corpses also went into Lawson's bag, he thought that everyone was dead anyway, so they didn't distinguish each other, and he didn't be polite to these corpses, and finally harvested a bag full of coins, including a lot of gold coins.
Although I don't know what the economic system of this world is, according to the ratio of the number of several coins, Lawson can roughly see that he has a lot of wealth in his hands.
In the obsidian-black and deep night sky, the most dazzling is the silver full moon, flanked by a slightly fragmented crimson moon and a blue moon, a large and two small three bright moons, and the stars are also silent.
The cold winds of the forest on an autumn night, and the howls of unknown beasts in the distance were chilling, but Lawson was completely unimpressed.
Night is the realm of the undead, and Lawson walks through the woods like a ghost, and he exudes a faint aura of death that even the most ferocious beasts dare not approach.
He really looks like a pervert who is a tail girl coming home now, Rosen laughed to himself, while following closely the fast-moving Grantia and the others.
The undead are not as tired as humans, and only magic is needed to drive the body, and even after walking for a long time, Lawson did not feel the slightest feeling of exhaustion in his spirit, and soon, in the second half of the night, when the silver moon was hanging high, Lawson finally saw the mottled city wall.
The gray masonry looked more and more lonely in the light of the silver moon, and the city gate was closed, except for a small gate for people to enter and exit, and Rosen saw Grantia dismount, and a middle-aged man with gray hair was already waiting at the door, and he was presumably the same Lord Ryan Ulysses who was well-dressed.
When she saw Ryan Ulysses, Grantia did not cry like an ordinary girl, but only said a few words, her eyes filled with tears, but she never shed a single drop.
Rosen watched from afar, he had been away from home on Earth for many years, and only occasionally went home during the holidays, at this time he had already turned into a dead spirit, but he was still embarrassed.
However, his focus was not on watching the touching scene of the other party's family reunion, Lawson looked away from Miss Grandia and carefully observed the defense of the city gate.
Since there are skeletons in this world, I believe that the power of the church is not too weak, and if there is a special mechanism to detect the undead, then Lawson may have to consider other methods to enter the city.
Fortunately, after some inspection, it seemed that it was not so troublesome to enter this small border city, perhaps just as the attitude of those mercenaries towards skeleton soldiers before, and the corpses in the forest implied, the area around this Bunagene was now plagued by demonic beasts, and there was no time to detect the undead that had not appeared for a long time.
Since that's the case, then the next step is simple.
After redressing his outfit by the moonlight and the stream, and making sure that he would not reveal his skeleton identity even in some fierce battles, Rosen swaggered up to the middle of the road towards the gates of Bunajien.
