"Seeing" this scene, the faces of Alan and Mia both changed color.

Baron Angelo really had a problem.

After a brief moment of madness, he sighed again, threw the half-dead fish back into the tank, picked up the papers from the ground, and began to read again.

Seeing that there didn't seem to be any more anomalies, Alan and the two left the top floor of the executive hall lightly.

Back at the office, the two talked to Old Oak about it.

"If his desires are not controlled, then there is a good chance that he will become a monster. ”

Mia said.

Hearing Mia's words, Alan finally remembered the trace of abnormality he had felt from Baron Angelo before.

Is that...... The taste of desire.

No wonder he had never seen him before, but Alan had an inexplicable familiarity with him.

Because old Jerry also has an extremely strong desire.

Thinking of the old Jerry who turned into a monster, Alan couldn't help but shudder.

"He has a guard under him, and he is a good baron who is loved by the people, so he cannot be attacked at this time under any circumstances. ”

Old Oak hesitated for a moment and said.

Mia said, "If he gets out of control and becomes a monster, it will cause more damage. ”

Alan could even imagine the catastrophic consequences of Baron Angelo's transformation into a monster.

The baron, who is the spiritual leader of the town, has become a monster with an instinct to kill, and even if he is eliminated, no one will want to stay......

The three of them fell silent at the same time.

Now is the special period of the Magic Riot, and Angelo, as the supreme leader of the neighborhood, must not make any mistakes.

But if he is left alone, his abnormal behavior is likely to cause disastrous consequences.

Seeing that things were at an impasse, Old Oak sighed and said, "I hope Angelo is really just a little violent......"

"You guys take a walk around town tomorrow, and I'll see if I can bring in support from Boulder again. ”

"Rest early. ”

Old Oak walked out of the house with a candle in his hand.

Mia didn't speak, she found a random bed in the office and lay down.

There were five or six beds in the office, and Alan didn't pay attention to it, and lay down on the bed next to Mia.

Looking at Mia's back, Allen's heart couldn't help but be a little worried.

The calm in the town now is probably just the calm before the storm.

According to Old Oak, as the magic continues to riot, not only will more low-level monsters like goblins be born, but people's desires will also be amplified.

Although he didn't live long, Alan knew that his own desire was the worst enemy of mankind.

Alan had already made up his mind that if there was an unstoppable enemy, then he would not be stupid enough to stay and resist, even if he was charged with desertion.

What kind of magician's consciousness, magician's iron rule, is not a fart with him.

He is an earthling, and he just wants to save his life in this dangerous other world.

There was nothing to say all night, and Alan didn't dare to make any out-of-the-ordinary moves, Mia was a two-star magician, and his one-star small body was probably bombarded into scum before he moved.

Although he did wonder what kind of face was under the black cloak.

In the morning, after eating the rye bread prepared by Old Oak, Alan and Mia went their separate ways on patrol.

Walking to the city gate, Alan glanced at the wooden bridge outside.

There are no fewer people outside, but there are more than yesterday.

With his enhanced eyesight, he could even see a steady stream of people coming from afar.

These people who want to enter the city must have rushed from villages thousands of miles away.

Greystone is the only large town around, and it has strong walls and elite guards, plus Eren and Mia, even if a few humanoid monsters attack the city, it has become a refuge in people's hearts.

"I don't know if I can see little Jerry......"

Retracting his gaze, Alan continued to walk down the street.

"Hurry up and hand over the money, or you'll be in good hands." ”

Passing by the mouth of an alley, Alan suddenly heard a voice.

The sound came from the depths of the alley.

Scanning his surroundings with his gaze, Alan walked deeper into the alley.

A skinny woman being pressed against a wall by a man.

The man's hand was tightly clasped around the woman's throat, and he still held a knife in his hand, which was pressed against the woman's waist, as if he would stab the tip of the knife into it if the woman did something that made him unhappy.

Alan followed the sound and came to the corner of the alley, just in time to see this scene.

He lightened his steps and quietly walked behind the man.

The woman, who was already about to despair, saw Alan coming in from the corner, and her eyes lit up, "I...... I'll give you the money!"

"Hurry up and get it!"

Seeing that the woman was so acquainted, the man's hand holding the woman's throat loosened slightly, but the knife was still firmly pressed against the woman's waist without the slightest movement.

While the woman reached into the pocket of her clothes and the man relaxed his vigilance, Allen rushed towards the man with lightning speed like a tiger.

Before he could react, Alan had already struck him with a knife in the neck.

As the man fell to the ground, the knife also fell to the ground.

"Thank you...... Thank you!"

The woman threw herself into Alan's arms, her eyes filled with tears.

"No thanks, that's what a gentleman should do. ”

Alan patted her on the shoulder, and there was no superfluous movement.

After half a minute, the woman's mood finally stabilized.

"I was walking down the street, and all of a sudden I was hijacked by this man with a knife, and then you came. ”

The woman's somewhat red, swollen eyes looked at Alan's bandaged right arm.

Thinking of Alan's inhuman speed and strength, the woman seemed to think of something and asked.

"You...... It's a magician, right?"

Alan raised an eyebrow, then nodded.

"In that case, I have something to ...... here"

The woman crouched down, picked up her package from the ground, and pulled out a white mask from inside.

Alan took the mask from her hand and examined it.

The white mask was cracked and stained with dried blood, and it looked like it was some years old.

Suddenly, Alan felt the faint fluctuation of magic inside.

Is this a sacrifice?

"This is what my father found from the corpse of a magician, and it may be useful to you, so please accept it as your reward for saving me. ”

Alan was not pretentious and received the mask in his sacrificial bag.

At this time, the unconscious man gradually woke up.

He looked at the two Alan in front of him, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.

Hurriedly grabbing the knife on the ground, he stood up tremblingly, his legs shaking.

"You...... What are you?"

"You...... Don't come here!"

Looking at Allen, who was slowly walking towards him, the man's legs trembled even more.

As soon as he thought that he hadn't even reacted just now, he fainted, and the man, who was still fierce and vicious, was almost scared to cry at this moment.

Alan walked up to him, his hand gripping the man's wrist like a pincer.

With a little force, the man couldn't help but scream, and his hand involuntarily let go of the knife, and the knife was held by Alan with his other hand.

"Let's go. ”

Alan didn't look back and said.

Hearing this, the woman glanced at the man and walked quickly out of the alley.

As far as she knew, those who fell into the hands of magicians often did not end well.

Alan let go of the man's hand, grabbed the blade of the knife with one hand, and pressed lightly.

The man looked at the blade that was bent under the great force, and then at Allen's bandaged right hand, and suddenly thought of something.

"You...... You're a magician......"

The man in despair sat on the ground, unable to resist at all.

"Any last words?"

Alan looked condescendingly at the man's face without the slightest emotion in his eyes.

"Huh...... Hehe...... You poor wretched ......"

"Every day we are born and die, and in the end we will be insulted and treated like street rats......"

The man suddenly started laughing, and he looked up at Allen.

"I remember one time when I was passing through the wilderness and found a seriously injured female magician, and she actually asked me for help......"

"How could I possibly save a murderer, I pretended to want to help her, and then ......"

The man's face was excited, and he was about to say something when he felt a cold hand brush his cheek.

"This ...... What is this?"

He touched his face and looked at the viscous liquid on his hands, and there was some confusion on his face.

The next moment, a bloody mouth appeared in front of his eyes.

"Ahhhhh......h

The man screamed in pain, his body trembling incessantly, and the life force in his body gathered together and was devoured by the devil's mouth.

The screams coming from the dark and remote alleys had no effect on the noise of the outside world.

The place that a man chooses for himself ends up being his own burial place.

"Scum. ”

Afterwards, looking at the pool of fresh blood on the ground, Alan couldn't help but spit on it, wiped his blood-stained clothes, and walked quickly out of the alley.

"Frank, I got a mask-like offering. ”

"It's supposed to be a transformation sacrifice, a sacrifice that can perform magic as long as it is activated with magic and then put on the face. ”

The mask was full of cracks, and it was estimated that it could only be used again, and Alan couldn't test it even if he wanted to, so he had to give up.

After learning about the mask from Frank, Alan wandered the streets for a while, finding nothing out of the ordinary, and returned to Afaryon's temporary office for lunch.

This was also the meeting time he and Old Oak had agreed to meet.

"I met a robber and I solved it. ”

Alan said as he munched on the fresh, tender beef.

For him after so many things, killing a scumbag will not bring him much emotional fluctuation.

"I ran into a rapist and solved it. ”

Mia still kept her head down, even though she was eating, but she couldn't see her face hidden by the wide cloak.

"With the riot of the magic power, there should be more and more cases of committing adultery......

Old Oak sighed, and lost his appetite for food.

After living for so long, he had only seen this kind of thing in Aparyon's books, and it was the first time he had experienced it personally.

A few people had just finished their lunch when there was a knock on the door.

Alan opened the door and was a guard.

"Lord Magician, Lord Baron wants to see you. ”

The guard's eyes were erratic, his head bowed, and his fingers kept buttoning the sleeves of his leather coat.

"Okay, I see, we'll get over later. ”

Alan turned around and saw that Old Oak both nodded, and then said.

When the guards heard Allen's words, they hurried away.

"Baron Angelo let us over, it can't be that last night's incident was exposed, right?"

Walking down the street with Old Oak, Alan was a little worried.

"It's impossible, and even if it's exposed, he won't dare to turn his face with us. ”

"Mia is right, you two are one of the most important forces in Greystone right now, plus your actions are also for the safety of Greystone, as long as Angelo is not sick in his brain, he knows what to do. ”

"Old Oak, why don't you have magic powers, but you can be the manager of a temporary office?"

Alan asked suddenly.

Ever since he first met Old Oak, he had been very curious.

Ordinary people either dislike magicians or stay away from them, and the only one Alan has ever seen who takes the initiative to serve magicians like Old Oak.

"My love, is a magician. ”

Old Oak hesitated, his voice a little muffled.

"I'm sorry. ”

"It's okay, it's all old. “

Several people soon came to the door of the administrative hall.

Baron Angelo was already standing in the doorway, waiting.

But to Allen's surprise, there were two black hounds standing beside him.

The two hounds were huge and fierce, like two tigers, and looked like they could hurt at any moment.

"Hello Magicians, this is my most faithful companions, Duru and Gary. ”

Baron Angelo shook hands with Alan and the others, and then pointed to the two hounds staring at him, with a gentle smile on his face.

"It's a guest, a little respect. ”

As soon as Baron Angelo finished saying this, the two hounds, who were still tense and roared from time to time, suddenly relaxed their bodies and began to wag their tails.

"Duru and Gary weren't very friendly to strangers, they just listened to me, which made the adults laugh. ”

Baron Angelo led the three Alan into the door and walked towards the office on the top floor.

"They saved my life in the big war, so they are not pets to me, but relatives who are more important than friends. ”

Duru and Gary crouched in the doorway, quietly watching Alan and the others go upstairs.

"Speaking of which, Duru and Gary once ate a goblin together, causing them to have a little mutation, adults should never treat them as monsters, they are loyal dogs. ”

When it comes to his dog, Baron Angelo seems to have a lot to say.

By the time he finished speaking, several people had already arrived at the door of the office.

"I'm inviting adults here today to talk about the increase in the number of monsters around me. ”

Baron Angelo sat behind his desk, looking at the Alan and the others in front of him, his face became serious.

"According to the villagers who fled, many of the more remote villages had fallen under the attack of the monsters, and the poor people did not even have a chance to escape to Greystone. ”

Angelo opened one of the scrolls on the table, looking a little sad.

"There's plenty of space in Greystone right now, but when all the villagers from the outside villages come to take refuge, the city will become crowded. ”

"These are nothing, what I'm most worried about is the monster siege ......"
