Chapter 371: The Situation

In the process, Lin Jing's remnant soul learned the memories of this body and soul, her name was Lin, she was the only daughter of the Lord of Maple Leaf Town, her mother was a witch, and her father was just an ordinary human. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Lynn's father fell ill and died a year ago, leaving the affairs of the realm to Lynn's mother, who had died of a strange illness a week earlier.

And then today, Lynn almost died.

Looking at these three things together, things don't seem to be so simple, how can there be such a coincidence, a family of three died one after another.

Most likely, someone wants the family to die.

Lin Jing thought of witches, maybe it was Lin's family who had a feud with a certain witch, and then they were retaliated, or it could be a power struggle, Lin's father was the lord of Maple Leaf Town during his lifetime, and after his death, the lordship was first taken over by Lin's mother, and then handed over to Lin a week ago.

Lin is the lord of Maple Leaf Town, so after Lin's death, who will become the lord?

The answer is uncertain, there are no nobles in the town, and if Lynn also dies, this Maple Leaf Town will become an unmanaged place, and the most profitable thing is the witch hidden in Maple Leaf Town.

There is a witch organization hidden in Maple Leaf Town, and Lin and her mother are also members of this organization, but although Lin and her mother are witches, they are the wife and daughter of the lord, so they rarely use magic, and instead try to play the role of ordinary people.

And the mother and daughter, who are used to living a good life, have long abandoned magic practice, and their strength is only at the elementary level, so that in the face of the assassination of the same witch, they have no power to resist at all.

If it is really a killer under the witch organization, then the truth can be guessed five or six points.

Many years ago, this world was still ruled by witches, the world was full of witchcraft and magic, in that era, witches were born nobles, it was still a feminist society, women had a higher status in the family than men, and a woman could marry a dozen men.

It's just that I don't know when the goddess who shelters the witch clan disappears, and the witches' prayers are no longer answered, and after a few decades, the witch clan without the protection of the goddess begins to decline, and in order to compete for greater power, there is a big war between the witch countries, and there are countless casualties.

In those great wars, the number of witches has decreased dramatically, and the magic inheritance has suffered heavy losses in many major battles.

This made the ambitions of world domination visible to the careerists of ordinary humans, who secretly tangle their men and launch a witch hunt when the time comes.

By the time the witches discovered the ambitions of these ordinary people, it was too late, and the army of ordinary humans was so large that it was a completely crushing advantage to deal with the few witches.

The witch's magic can easily kill ordinary people, but in the face of the army of ordinary people who rush forward and send them to death, the witch's magic can't stop it.

In the end, ordinary humans defeated witches, and a man named Arthur became the first king of the Human Empire.

Witches have become street rats, afraid to show their faces in front of people, and once their identities are revealed, they will face endless pursuit by the wizard hunters organized by the kingdom.

With such a blood feud, it is reasonable for witches to hate ordinary humans.

Maple Town is located in the northernmost part of the Empire, outside the Forest of the Dead, and is far from the center of the Empire, and it takes three days to walk to the nearest town.

Due to its remote location, witch hunters rarely come here, and it has become a hiding place for witches.

Lynn's father, as the lord of this place, could not tolerate the existence of witches, and on several occasions he almost discovered the hidden witches in the town, and if it wasn't for Lynn's mother who managed to cover up the past, the hidden witches in Maple Leaf Town would not have escaped the pursuit of wizard hunters.

It stands to reason that those witches should be grateful for the help of Lin's mother, but they killed Lin's mother the week before, and they want to kill Lin today, just because these two mothers and daughters are too biased towards the human side, which hinders the interests of the witch organization, and it is probably for this reason that they are killed.

As soon as Maple Town becomes a borderland, these witches will be able to walk in the sunshine in the open.

Lin Jing sorted out these memories and had a general understanding of the pattern of this world, the country he was in now was called the Country of Light, that is, the empire founded by Arthur, and the Country of Light almost unified all the parts of the continent, except for some wild places that were not under his jurisdiction.

These wild lands are inhabited by many ancient races, some of which are feared by witches.

After understanding this, the dark horse has also run to Maple Leaf Town.

Maple Leaf Town is not large, there are more than 200 households in the town, and the roofs here are all the same color as maple leaves, which will be very good to look at during the day.

In the easternmost part of the town, there is a castle, where the original owner grew up.

This castle is a big mansion on earth in the 21st century.

Lin Jing was picked up from the horse by Philus, and from Lynn's memory, she knew that Lynn and Philus were actually a pair of lovers, no wonder Fix showed such a concerned look when he found Lynn, and he was simply too concerned.

It's just that it's Lin who likes Philus, Lin Jing doesn't have any feelings for Philus, and she is still a little unaccustomed to being picked up by Fix, but when she thinks of playing the identity of Lin here for a while, she has to endure it first.

Entering the hall, food is already ready inside.

"It's great that you're okay, Miss, Beth is so worried about you." A maid trotted over, dressed as a maid, and her identity was Lynn's maid.

Lin Jing's eyes condensed slightly, this Beth turned out to be a witch, but she used some kind of magic to hide her magic, and the magic in her body did not leak a single point, and this kind of hidden magic was difficult for people who were also witches to detect.

Lin Jing can detect this because his strength is far superior to that of the other party, and if it is with the same strength, it is difficult to detect the identity of the other party.

As for whether it is friend or foe, it is not known yet, and Lynn's memory has only been checked roughly, and many details have not been seen.

Seeing that Lin didn't speak for a long time, Beth was a little anxious: "Miss, what's wrong with you, is there something uncomfortable?" ”

"Oh, I'm fine, let's eat first." After Lin Jing finished speaking, he walked to the top seat.

In any case, fill your stomach first, this body is already hungry, and if you don't eat, no one else will harm you, and you will starve to death first.

There wasn't much food on the table, a plate of roasted sweet potatoes, a plate of mashed potatoes with eggs, a chicken thigh.

This kind of food is already a very rich meal in this town in this era.

"Philus, Beth, you didn't have dinner either, so come and eat together." Lin Jing made an invitation, this is an opportunity to brush up on favorability, how can you miss it. (To be continued.) )
