"What are you talking about? Lady Erastro is about to resign from her position as High Mage?" During the small talk, Ryan received a very important news, that is, this time period happened to be the eve of the establishment of the Silver Moon Federation, the first unified power in the Northlands, and this group of merchants also came for this matter, because it means that the Northlands will further develop, and the recent Moon Celebration will definitely consume a lot of materials, and the goods in their hands can be sold for a good price.

The caravan in front of Ryan now was a small caravan from Silvermoon City, which was just a relatively safe route to Waterdeep City. Further afield, such as Sandaba or Fort Adeba, are not within their reach.

In this medieval environment, it was very dangerous to run long distances, such as the armies of the countries in the world of the Lord of the Rings and a Song of Ice and Fire, and spent almost all of their time in peacetime defending and training to strangle robbers who could never be killed on the trade routes. For example, if this caravan hadn't encountered Ryan now, it would be good if half of them could rush out, and all the goods would have been lost.

"We seem to be a step late, and it looks like we'll have to go into town tomorrow. "After cleaning up the battlefield, everyone quickened their pace. Unfortunately, when they rushed to the city gate breathlessly, they found that the city gate was closed.

"And where are we going tonight?" Ryan asked, looking at the sunset over the horizon and asking the leader of the caravan, "I don't think we're going to camp." ”

"Not really, there are quite a few small villages around here. It just so happened that I had a friend's house nearby, and his family was running a hotel part-time, so we could stay at his house for one night. The leader of the caravan said and led them down the main road and along the city wall to the east, and after a short time they saw a small village of seven or eight buildings, one of which had a sign at the door with a wooden barrel and a pitchfork painted on it.

After the caravan was settled, Ryan immediately ran to the tavern on the first floor with Hermione and Rose Crystal to inquire about the news. It was a great place for the nearby peasants to have fun, and after spending only a silver coin (the spoils of war) for a few glasses of wine, they got some unusual news.

"Are you wizards?" said a rosacea farmer, sipping the ale that Ryan had invited. "Then you can pay a visit to Andorine, who lives in the house on the other side of the field with her husband, a well-known chef in Silvermoon City, and they are a very good couple. But this morning there was the foulest smell coming from their chimney, and I was a little worried about them now. ”

"It sounds like the beginning of a mission. After the farmer walked away with his glass, Hermione said to Ryan, "But this is a great opportunity for us to get in touch with the local spellcasters and magic, so let's go over now." ”

Ryan agreed with Hermione, and after greeting the caravan leader, the three of them walked towards the farmer's point. It was getting dark, and it was very dark in the farmland with no light pollution at all, and Ryan and Hermione could only hold a lantern plant in one hand to illuminate themselves, while the rose crystal flew low above their heads, holding a crystal sword in both hands to guard the surroundings.

After walking five or six hundred meters, they saw the small wooden house in a sparse maple forest. Strangely, though, the door was ajar, and through the crack in the door, Ryan could see that the room was pitch black.

"It's not right, normal people who would leave the door open at night. Ryan and Hermione drew their wands at the same time, and then Ryan opened the door with a fresh breeze, lit the wand in his hand, and saw that directly across from the door was a living room with a large sofa that looked very comfortable. On the left is an armchair in front of the fireplace, while under the window on the right is a desk.

"It doesn't seem like much here, but I hear the sound of tearing things behind the front door. After a cursory glance, Ryan and Hermione crept through the living room, but as they walked to the fireplace, the fire stick that had been placed diagonally on the edge of the fireplace came to life, and then stabbed Ryan who was walking in front of him.

Ryan reacted in time to block the blow with an Iron Charm, before Rose Crystal swooped down and swung his sword to cut the rod in two.

"This is supposed to be an animated item, and we better be careful. Ryan examined the two iron rods that had fallen to the ground, and said that they had to give up magic reconnaissance because they had given up magic reconnaissance considering that there might be enemies in the house, but they didn't expect that there were still mechanisms waiting for them here.

After being attacked once, the three men continued vigilantly forward, but did not wait for a second attack until they reached the other door of the house.

That's where the voice came from. Ryan closed his eyes in the doorway and listened for a few seconds before speaking to Hermione and Rose Crystal through a soul connection. "Looks like it's probably the enemy here, so get ready for battle. ”

After everyone was ready for battle, Ryan threw a flashbang made of sunlight crystals into the room, and in an instant, a strong sunlight enveloped the entire room, and suddenly a scream came from the left.

The scream was a 2-foot-tall ultra-small humanoid with dark red skin, leather-like bat wings, a spiky tail, and curved horns. Ryan and Hermione, who were enthusiasts of running groups, immediately recognized this as a little devil from Bartow's hell.

The next battle ended in an instant, and when the little devil covered his eyes stung by the bright light and couldn't react for a while, Ryan quickly blocked it with a confinement spell, and then Rose Crystal quickly swung the crystal sword and chopped the struggling little devil into a dozen pieces of meat the size of a ping-pong ball, and the whole process only took a few seconds.

Once they were sure that the enemy had been cleared, they heard a weak moan, and Ryan and Hermione followed the sound as they walked briskly to the bed, where they saw a scarred and bloody man slumped on the bed, his wrists and ankles tied.

Ryan quickly untied the man, and then Hermione quickly checked his physical condition with magic. The man's condition was much better than expected, and most of the blood stains on his body were just some ketchup. Now he looks weak, because he has been dehydrated from a paralyzing poison.

After being fed a bottle of antidote and a glass of water, the man came to his senses. He tells Ryan and Hermione that he is the husband of the wizard Andorine, Chef Gandru. He did this because he made a cheese golem with his wife, just as his wife went to the lab to study magic. This little devil sent by a demon named Vogon, who had been at odds with his wife a long time ago, came in and caused trouble, triggering the Cheesegolem's berserk mode, injuring Gandru, and then tying him to his bedroom and beating him incessantly.

"Remember, don't use fire against that golem, the flames will only make him stronger, and this golem is very strong. After learning that Ryan and the three of them were planning to destroy the uncontrolled Cheese Golem, Gandrew told him seriously, other than that, he only knew that the Golem was still in the house, but he didn't know where it was.

Soon, Ryan and the others vigilantly walked from the living room to the dining room, and there was nothing strange in the dining room. But after stepping into the kitchen through another door, the signs of the golem's destruction appeared in front of them: several iron pots and kettles fell to the ground, the pottery was shattered, and the broken pieces were scattered all over the room, and the walls were splashed with a mixture of various spices, still dripping down.

Upon entering the dilapidated kitchen, they saw what looked like a door to the basement in the room, which was closed and held tightly by a chair, as if someone was afraid that something was going to come out of it. Thinking about what Gandr had just said about the Golem not leaving the house, Ryan and they could probably be sure that the Golem was in the basement right now.

After making sure that the enemy was a Constructed Golem, Ryan summoned his own Madonna of Roses floating on his chest and opened the door to the basement and was the first to enter, feeling that he could just have a spell against such an enemy to use.
