Hearing that familiar voice, the face of the guard in the lead instantly turned extremely pale.

He turned his head mechanically, and his legs couldn't help but start shaking.

By the moonlight, a young face appeared in front of everyone.

Dressed in straight leather armor, his hand tightly grasped the saber at his waist, and his face was extremely cold.

"Han ...... Mistress Hank......"

Several of the guards looked at each other, their voices stammering.

"It's so late, it's not good to patrol, and ...... with irrelevant people"

Hank's gaze swept over the group, his words full of coldness.

He jerked out the saber at his waist, "You're trying to escape?!"

The silver sword was like the hand of death, and the dozens of people who pinched it were out of breath.

It's clear that Hank is alone, but they just don't dare to act rashly.

At this time, a child who looked no more than three or four years old couldn't stand such a heavy atmosphere, so he cried directly.

"Peter, don't cry......"

The woman standing next to the child hurriedly squatted down, held the child in her arms, and patted the child's back with a hand that kept shaking.

The few strong men who had followed Potter earlier glanced at each other, and were about to walk up, but were stopped by the guards, "Don't!"

"Ponte, I'll give you a chance to explain. ”

Hank pointed the tip of his sword at Pont and said calmly.

"You know my attitude towards deserters. ”

Hearing Hank's words, Ponte's figure trembled and walked up to Hank tremblingly.

He looked to be in his early twenties, slightly taller than Hank, but he was such a stocky young man, and his eyes were full of tears at the moment.

"Lord Hank......"

He knelt directly on the hard ground, his head bowed, tears falling from his eyes and falling to the ground.

"Peter is only three and a half years old this year, and my mother is not in good health, she is already seventy years old......"

Ponte lowered his head, choked, and his sturdy body trembled.

"You know, a big rat, it takes five or six guards to solve ......"

"As far as I know, there are hundreds of rats more than ten kilometers away!"

"Hundreds!"

"Even if we have walls and crossbows, we only have a hundred people, and even if we take our lives, we won't be enough to fill it!"

"What's more, there are two or three of those big rats in the afternoon slum monsters. ”

"As long as you stay, it's a dead end......"

"You know all of this!"

Ponte jerked his head up, his nose twitching, his face covered with tears.

"Alas. ”

Hank sighed and put the sword down.

"I'm willing to stay and fight to the death with those bastards, but my family, they are innocent!"

Ponte's eyes had turned red.

"Please, Master Hank, let them live!"

The guards behind lowered their heads involuntarily, and their eyes turned red in an instant.

The women, children and old people next to them had already begun to wipe away their tears.

"And...... Isn't your wife five months pregnant?"

As soon as Ponte's words fell, Hank's body couldn't help but tremble slightly.

"Can you bear to watch your wife and your children die at the claws of those rats?"

"Enough!"

Hank said coldly.

He raised his head and looked at the old and weak women and children not far away, and for a while, he didn't know what to say.

Hank withdrew his saber back into its scabbard, and his previously grim face was a little more moved.

"Are you all willing to stay and fight the monsters to the death?"

He looked at the guards standing in a row not far away, and said in a deep voice.

The guards looked up, their eyes full of incredulity.

"Speak!"

"Yes!"

The guards straightened up with solemn expressions.

"In that case, let your family go. ”

Looking at the young faces, Hank said.

The guards couldn't help but show a hint of joy on their faces, and even the speed of transporting people was a little faster.

"Also, I'll send Shirley over later and help me take care of her. ”

Hank patted Pont on the shoulder and whispered.

"You can rest assured. ”

Ponte wiped his tears, saluted, and then walked over to a strong man not far away and explained something.

Hank looked back at the group again, then walked away quickly.

Alan stood in the shadows and witnessed it all.

He had nothing but deep respect for these guards.

They were able to fly away with their families, but they resolutely stayed behind and faced an almost death-defying battle.

Alan asked himself if he might not have made such a choice if he were them.

Seeing that the evacuation plan was going well, Alan didn't linger any longer.

After taking a rough turn around the town and not finding anything unusual, Alan just walked to the front of the office, but remembered that Old Oak had already tossed it inside.

Fortunately, he remembered well and found the family who had bathed earlier.

"Is she here?"

Alan looked at the couple who opened the door and asked.

"The lord is in there, and the old gentleman is too. ”

When the husband saw Allen, he opened the door and whispered as he welcomed him in.

Mia sat quietly by the fire, and if you looked closely, you could see that her right arm was shaking slightly.

Alan sat next to her and didn't speak.

By the fire, there was only the snorting of burning firewood.

Looking at Mia's exposed white chin, Alan became more and more curious about what it was like under the cloak.

Is it ugly and afraid to see people?

Allen, who was a little bored in his heart, could only make some jokes to make fun of himself.

The magic strengthens the mage's body, so that it doesn't matter if the mage doesn't sleep for days and nights.

But if you want to be unaffected, you just need to take a break for an hour or two.

Alan sat on the chair like this, looked at the graceful figure of Mia in front of him, listened to the sound of the stove, and quietly fell asleep.

Hearing the sound of approaching footsteps, Alan opened his eyes.

She is the mistress of this room.

Seeing that she had woken up Alan, her face was full of apologies, "I'm sorry, my lord, I saw that the stove was about to go out, and I wanted to come over and add some firewood." ”

"It's okay, how long has it been?"

With a wave of his hand, Alan stood up from his chair, feeling refreshed.

"About an hour. ”

Seeing that Eren seemed to be looking for Mia's figure, the woman hurriedly said, "That adult is out." ”

Alan nodded, indicating that he knew, and he took two silver coins from his bosom and handed them to the woman.

"My lord, I can't accept that you were born and died for us. ”

The woman bowed her head, a little frightened.

"Take it, I don't lack this money. ”

Smiling, Alan put his hand in front of the woman.

Seeing that Alan insisted on insisting, the woman had no choice but to bow deeply, and then put away the two silver coins.

As soon as Alan reached the room where Old Oak had been, he heard the voice of a woman.

"Your friend is in there. ”

Alan knocked on the door.

Old Oak opened the door, and a few more wrinkles seemed to have been added to his old face.

"Come in. ”

He opened the wooden door and walked into the room.

Old Oak walked a little trembling, as if he might fall down at any moment.

"Are you okay?"

Alan asked, following him.

"Can't die. ”

Old Oak smiled, sat down in a wooden chair, and motioned for Alan to sit across from him.

"I've asked people to clean the office, and I guess I'll be able to live during the day. ”

He looked out the window, it was still foggy, but there was already some light in the sky.

Alan nodded, but didn't speak.

"Alas, according to the Intraroyal branch, tomorrow ...... No, this afternoon, it's the time when the magic is the most active, calculate the time, cough cough, those monsters are also about to approach Graystone Town. ”

Old Oak coughed, his face growing paler.

Is it this afternoon......

Alan's mood suddenly became a little heavy.

The streets of Greystone are still so bustling, even more crowded than before.

Alan leaned against a bakery, listening to all sorts of sneaky sounds coming from the dark alleys not far away.

Begging for mercy, screaming, moaning, panting......

For a moment, Alan couldn't help but be a little irritable.

Even if he could kill all those criminals in a second, what good would that be?

Under the magic of the riot, the desires of any normal person will be magnified.

Kill one, two, and there will be more people who can't resist the temptation and choose to satisfy their desires.

People are nothing, and the most important thing is the approaching monsters.

Eren looked up at the walls of Greystone in the distance.

Can the stone wall, which is about ten meters high, really withstand those murderous monsters?

Even if he hadn't seen the tide of monsters in the mouths of those refugees with his own eyes, Allen's heart had already begun to beat the drum.

In the town, the only people who can really be called combat power are him and Mia, two two-star magicians, and the rest are just a hundred or so guards.

With this kind of power, it will be difficult to face a hundred monsters at the same time.

As long as the defenses of Greystone Town are breached, with the brutality of the monsters, these thousands of people may not be able to escape alone.

Taking out the sacrificial bag from his bosom, Alan counted his own offerings.

Three axe fragments, the roots of the fire tree, the slightly duller feathers of the falcon, the healing seeds, the cracked white mask, and the old Jerry's nose.

Among them, the Axe Fragment and the Healing Seed were all obtained by him from Old Oak.

According to Frank, the Axe Fragment and the Healing Seed were the most basic sacrifices for magicians, and Afalong gave them out almost for free.

I don't know how many monsters these sacrifices can kill.

Looking at the blue sky, Alan was a little distracted.

"Eat some bread. ”

At this time, a voice came from Alan's side.

Alan turned his head to see that it was a little girl who looked to be seventeen or eighteen years old.

She has blonde hair, a little freckle on her nose, wears a white dress, and holds a plate of neatly cut white bread in her hand, which looks very cute.

"Aren't you afraid I'll eat you?"

Alan smiled.

His right arm has no disguise at the moment, and the red arm and saliva dripping from the devil's mouth from time to time are enough to scare off many people.

When he walked down the street, no pedestrian dared to approach him.

When facing criminals, you only need to raise your right arm, and as soon as the other party sees the devil's mouth, his legs will instantly weaken.

It can be seen how deeply rooted the ferocity of magicians is.

"You're a good person, why should I be afraid. ”

The girl laughed like a spring flower.

I didn't expect to go to another world, but I still couldn't escape the good guy card.

Alan picked up a loaf of bread from the tray, put it in his mouth and chewed it.

Although it doesn't matter if a magician doesn't eat or drink water for a few days and nights, there is always some hunger.

"My name is Anna. ”

Alan nodded, indicating that he understood.

"I've heard from people that there have been magicians who have killed a lot of bad guys and monsters lately, and I think it's you. ”

Anna pulled Alan to sit down, supported her chin with one hand, and looked at Ellen, a pair of blue eyes flowing with brilliance.

"It's me. ”

Alan nodded, not denying it.

Hearing Allen's admission, Anna smiled even more happily, and her big eyes narrowed.

Feeling Anna's fiery gaze, Alan couldn't help but blush a little.

He had never had a girlfriend in his previous life, so naturally he didn't know how to face this kind of scene.

He could only pick up another piece of bread and eat it as a way to reduce embarrassment.

It was half a minute before Anna asked.

"I heard that there will be a lot of monsters attacking Greystone, is that true?"

"It's true. ”

"Wouldn't that be dangerous?"

Hearing Anna's voice, Alan stopped chewing in his mouth for a moment.

He lowered his head and swallowed the bread in his mouth.

"Nothing dangerous, piece of cake. ”

As if not wanting to disappoint Anna, Alan looked up and barely managed to squeeze out a smile.

"I knew that you were so powerful, so kind, and not bad......"

Seeing Anna lower her head, two more fiery clouds appeared on her white cheeks, Alan listened to her words, and didn't know what to say.

"You should be busy, I ...... I won't waste your time. ”

Her face was getting hotter and hotter, and Anna hurriedly got up, didn't even dare to look at Allen, and ran straight to the store.

Looking at her back, Alan shoved the last piece of bread into his mouth.

This little girl should like herself.

Before the battle began, he was already thinking about running away......

Is such a self really worthy of being liked?

Alan lowered his head, and a certain string in his heart seemed to be touched.

As the main force, they all want to run away without a fight, so what about the others?

Behind him, there were thousands of people like Anna......

Alan stood up and wiped the crumbs from the corners of his mouth, and his originally somewhat sloppy gaze gradually became resolute.

He looked at the bustling crowd in front of him, and looked at the pedestrians with different faces, and Allen's heart gradually became hot.

"Is this the responsibility of a magician?"

Eren stretched out his right arm, looked at the magic mouth that kept opening and closing in his palm, and muttered in a low voice.

Although he does not belong here, since he has come, he should leave his traces.

Seeing that Alan seemed to be leaving, Anna hurriedly walked out of the store, "What's your name?"

Alan put his hood on, a smile appeared on his mouth, and shouted loudly: "I'll tell you when I return triumphantly!"

His figure moved, and within a few seconds, he disappeared into the crowd.

Anna stood in front of the bakery, looking in the direction Alan had left, with a smile on her lips.

When the wind blew, her hair moved slightly.

She just watched, smiled, and waited until a guest called her before she reacted, and her little face turned red.

......

Alan kicked the man on the ground and broke his leg, looking down at his face twisted together by pain.

"Let it go...... Leave me alone...... Please!"

The man was panting incessantly, his forehead covered with sweat.

There was no intact place on his body, and his limbs were either broken or twisted, and he could only squirm on the ground, and the scene was extremely bloody.

Alan didn't speak, straightened his hood, and walked out of the alley.

"Hey, you can't keep me here!

The man's voice gradually faded until he could no longer hear it.

"This is the last ...... in the area"

Alan muttered under his breath.

"Alan, I feel a very active magic, is it about to riot?"

Frante's voice came from his right arm.

Alan had told him all about the Magical Riot before.

"If that's right, it's probably in the afternoon. ”

Alan climbed the wall with his bare hands, stood next to one of the guards, and looked into the distance.

The guard was startled by Allen, and was about to draw his sword, but saw Allen's red right arm, and his body gradually relaxed.

Looking at the small black dot that was squirming in the distance, Allen's eyes froze.

"In that case, you should learn the use of forbidden arts. ”

Hearing this unfamiliar word, Alan was a little puzzled.

"Forbidden?"
