Travel (XXXVIII)
Alan's pupils dilated.
This......
How similar is Noah at this moment to the couple he spoke of in his words?
In an instant, Eren wanted to put his hand into the sacrificial bag on his waist and take out the broken sword that the three-headed dog had dropped.
At this moment, Noah suddenly laughed.
The previous woman's demeanor is no longer visible.
"You don't have to worry, her influence on me has been negligible under the neutralization of so many monsters. ”
"Even if I become a monster one day, it will definitely not be the husband I just mentioned. ”
"That's all for today, I'll go first, and I'll get in touch when I have something. ”
Before Alan could continue to speak, Noah stood up and walked out of the crowd, leaving a few words.
I haven't asked the forces in Boulder yet......
Alan stood up, Noah already missing from his sight.
He wanted to use the boulder pendant to get in touch, but Noah said that he would say so much today, and if he asked again, it would probably annoy him.
Thinking of this, Alan gave up on his thoughts.
No one is simple.
Seeing the crowd in front of him gradually disperse, Alan thought silently.
For the next half day, everything was uneventful.
Just when Alan was bored, wondering if something was going to happen, it happened.
But it's for him.
It was a little boy, who looked no more than twelve or thirteen years old, with a fair face and a little messy face, and brown hair.
"Magician, someone wants to talk to you. ”
Although he looked immature, he did not have the slightest timidity to speak in front of Allen, and his eyes stared straight at Allen.
"Not available. ”
Alan wasn't even interested in glancing at the little boy.
As a magician, if you want to see yourself, you have to go?
What's more, this boy doesn't talk big or small, and when others see him, they are all adults.
Seeing that Alan didn't even think about himself, the boy's face was blue and white, and he couldn't speak for a while.
"You're from Greystone, aren't you?"
After a few seconds, he continued to speak loudly.
Hearing the word Greystone, Alan turned his head, glanced up and down at the boy, snorted coldly, and withdrew his gaze.
Seeing that Eren seemed to have some reaction to Greystone, the boy's face showed a hint of joy.
"The guy who wants to see you, he's also from Greystone. ”
Raising an eyebrow, Alan crouched down and looked at the ordinary-looking boy.
"You know, if you lie to me, it's easy for me to kill you. ”
There was not the slightest fear on the boy's face, and he nodded, "If you are interested, come with me." ”
"Lead the way. ”
Following the boy through the southern city, Allen's brow couldn't help but furrow.
He was puzzled.
After coming to Boulder, he didn't even take off the hood of his cloak when he went out, how did this boy and the people behind him know that they were from Graystone?
Moreover, after a fierce battle, except for the people who were hiding, the only people who survived the frontal battlefield in Greystone Town were him and Mia.
Before the battle, the back gate was closed again......
If that mysterious man can't prove anything, then don't blame me for being ruthless.
Anyway, the devil's mouth has been hungry for many days.
Alan thought to himself.
As if sensing the killing intent in Allen's heart, the slender tongue stretched out from the devil's mouth kept licking in Allen's palm.
The two stopped in front of a somewhat dilapidated dwelling.
There was even a hole in the corner of the wooden door of the house, and there was a smell of decay.
Pushing open the wooden door, the boy stepped inside.
Eren opened his eyes and found no trace of magic before following in.
The faint candlelight barely illuminated the room.
The boy was standing next to a somewhat bloated man.
Allen's gaze swept over the man's face and he couldn't help but be stunned.
It was a man.
The waist is thicker than a bucket, the chin can even be seen in three layers, and the fat body faintly smells of sweat.
"Money. ”
The man took a silver coin from his waist pocket and handed it to the boy.
With a hint of joy on his face, the boy put the silver coin in his clothes, and then ran out quickly.
"Greedy little scraps. ”
Looking at the boy's departing back, the man spat on the ground and cursed in a low voice.
"Ai ...... Alan?"
The man turned his head and looked at Allen, who was wrapped in a cloak, and asked tentatively.
Alan didn't speak, but walked in front of the man, and Alan couldn't help but open his heart again, and carefully swept Potter up and down.
There is still no trace of magic.
But...... How is this possible?
The face of the man in front of him, as well as his iconic figure, proved that he was the younger brother of Baron Angelo of Greystone.
Porter.
"Is that you, Alan?"
Seeing Allen's actions, tears couldn't help but flow out of Potter's eyes, and as soon as he sniffed, he wanted to hug Allen, but Allen dodged him.
"You're Potter?"
His heart shook, even though he had seen countless strange magic, but Eren still couldn't believe his eyes.
Wasn't Potter executed in front of Baron Angelo?
Or the first person to be executed.
The scene of internal organs and flesh flying is still vivid in Allen's mind.
"I'm Potter!"
Potter fell to the ground and hit his chin, and he cried even harder as he rubbed it.
"Alan, are you going to help me...... I'm in Boulder now, Jane ...... I'm going to be tortured to death......"
Potter was in a hurry, sweating uncontrollably from his forehead, and a little snot leaking from his large nostrils.
"But I saw with my own eyes that you were put to death by Baron Angelo. ”
"That's not me, my brother took everyone else back after he caught us and escaped, and let me sneak away to Boulder City alone. ”
"I don't even have a horse, and I have to carry such a heavy bag, and my feet are almost worn out along the way!"
Seeing the fat body twitching incessantly, and Potter wiping tears like a little woman, Allen's heart couldn't help but feel a chill.
But he let Potter continue.
"I arrived in a hurry to Boulder City yesterday, and I didn't dare to talk to anyone on the way, for fear that others would see the food and gold coins in my bag. ”
Yesterday......
If it was true that Potter had left the night before the battle, it had been exactly six days until the battle.
And it takes just six or seven days to get from Graystone Town to Boulder City.
Everything is on the right track!
The man in front of him, sobbing, wearing shabby linen clothes, and smelling of disgusting sweat, was Baron Angelo's own brother, Potter.
Alan gradually calmed down.
Unexpectedly, driven by desire, Baron Angelo did not execute his own brother, but let him run away with the money.
But why did Potter fall into the poor and sour appearance he is now?
Alan couldn't help but ask.
"What happened after that?"
Hearing Alan's words, Potter cried even louder.
Such a huge body, but with such a character.
"After my brother asked me to come to Boulder City, I took refuge with Count Baker, that damn wretch, after knowing that my brother was dead, he robbed me of all my things and beat me, and now the injuries are not healed!"
As he spoke, Potter lifted the sleeves of his clothes, revealing bruises and bruises.
Baker...... Earl?
Alan silently kept the name in his heart.
Count Scott, Count Baker, and Count Elliot, these should be the three major Earls of Boulder City.
"And how did you know I was in Boulder City?"
Alan admits that he has not revealed his identity outside, and besides, no one should know about his new face.
"Yesterday, just before I met Baker, I happened to overhear his conversation in the room with someone else, and it mentioned you, and my brother. ”
"And they also told me about your commission in Nancheng, but luckily I also secretly hid a gold coin in the sole of my shoe, and after escaping from Baker's clutches, I secretly rented a small house here, and asked Huck to help me find out if there was any news of you around. ”
"Huck is the little crumb. ”
Potter's tears were drying up, and he looked at Alan with two small eyes pitiful with tears.
He didn't dare to disturb Alan thinking.
He only arrived in Boulder City yesterday, and this Count Baker knew about it.
Could it be that Tiffany said it?
Alan's heart was full of doubts.
As a noble earl, Baker should have no one to stop him if he wanted to know this inconsequential information.
sighed, Alan himself has not been in society for a few years, and he only knows a little about human affairs.
Seeing Alan turn around, as if wanting to leave, Potter suddenly became anxious.
"You...... You can't go!"
He dragged his fat body, trying to grab Alan's hand, but he didn't even catch the hair.
"Anything else?"
The smell of sweat on Potter's body hit his nose, and Alan couldn't help but frown.
"I've told you so much, and we're both from Greystone, so you're going to have to help me!"
"If you don't help me, with this little money on me, I will starve to death in a short time!"
Potter burst into tears again, but with his big face plate, it made people feel a little funny.
"You can't afford to give money, and you don't have any ability, why should I help you?"
Stopped, Allen's face was full of indifference.
Stunned for a moment, Potter couldn't help but roll on the ground.
"You can't leave me alone!"
Seeing the fat man spilling on the ground and his clothes stained with dirty dirt, Alan couldn't help but frown.
If he hadn't gotten that seal from Noah, maybe he would have really walked away.
But this Potter is so useless, should I use that seal on him?
Alan hesitated for a moment, opened his mouth and said, "Okay, don't cry yet." ”
Seeing that Sap seemed to have an effect, Potter's face showed a hint of joy, and he wiped his tears from his eyes, despite the dust on his hands.
In front of Baron Angelo, as long as he rolls like this, his brother will always be soft-hearted and grant him any request.
"If you want me to help you, you have to give me my life. ”
Hearing Alan's indifferent words, Potter was suddenly a little embarrassed.
Working......
It's going to be life-threatening......
But as soon as he saw the environment in front of him and smelled the smell of sweat coming from his body, Porter, who had been pampered since he was a child, couldn't bear this kind of life.
He nodded.
"I can't trust you, so I'm going to take your insurance policy. ”
Alan said as he pulled the seal out of the sacrificial bag.
In the faint light of the candle, the blood stains on the seal shimmered a dim red.
Combined with the blood mark on Allen's right arm, the whole scene looks extremely weird.
Seeing this scene, the fat on Potter's face couldn't help but tremble.
He suddenly remembered Allen's identity.
"No...... No, is there any other way?"
Seeing Alan walking towards him with the seal in his hand, Potter couldn't help but crawl back, cold sweat running down his forehead and back, soaking his clothes.
His back was leaning against the corner and he couldn't help but scream.
"Do you have anything to lose now besides a body of fat?"
"If you don't surrender to me, you'll end up with nothing more than a mess of carrion in the sewers. ”
Seeing Potter's dead appearance, Alan felt a chill again.
If it weren't for the fact that this seal had to bear the absolute surrender of people, Alan would never have chosen such a waste.
No one with the slightest ability would choose to sell their soul to the devil.
Hearing Alan's words, Potter lowered his head.
His body trembled.
After a few seconds, Potter lowered his head to the ground, his hands spread out, not daring to make a move.
Alan crouched down, and the magic poured into the seal through the devil's mouth.
The blood stains on it suddenly lit up with a dazzling red light.
Aiming the stamped side at Potter's head, Alan gently stamped it on.
The moment the seal made contact with Potter, Alan only felt something pass from Potter's body to his right hand.
"What happened?"
At this moment, Frante couldn't help but scream.
He felt a strange aura suddenly appear beside him.
"You sacrificed the magician?
"Alan, speak!"
Alan didn't rush to answer, he was looking at the scene in front of him.
The moment that breath entered Allen's right hand through the demon's mouth, the seal had already melted in the air.
Other than that, there was no sign of Potter on his body until Eren opened his mind.
In the black world, the top of Potter's head shone white.
It was a square chapter.
Allen's name is engraved on it.
Alan wasn't surprised by this, but what really horrified him was......
It's not Alan Buckman, it's just Allen, and it's kanji!
For a moment, Alan couldn't believe his eyes.
He wiped his eyes and looked closer.
The two square and round Chinese characters are clearer.
it?
After nearly a month in another world, Alan almost forgot about the existence of Chinese characters.
Wait a minute!
If he could see with his mind's eye, wouldn't other magicians be able to see through his mind as well?
In this way, isn't Allen's identity as a traverser exposed?
With his current strength, if that Monk grows out to catch him, I'm afraid he won't even have a chance to resist.
In an instant, Alan even had the idea of killing Potter.
He grabbed the boulder pendant around his neck with his right hand, and with his left hand he spread out, grabbing Potter's head.
"Noah?"
"What's wrong?"
