Chapter 7: Rommels' Clues

With the sound of the whip, the carriage gradually slowed down, and then stopped, and the two people leaned forward slightly. [No pop-ups.]

Devany lowered her head, muttered for a moment, and then raised her head little by little in Luo Lan's eyes, her expression was awe-inspiring and righteous, and she said solemnly: "The monks will not disobey the teachings of the gods, pursue the principles and justice of heaven, judge all sins and evils, and cleanse the filth and desires of the world. ”

Luo Lan's heart suddenly sank to a trough, he was afraid that his eyes would expose the pain in his heart, so he quickly turned his head to the side, and a straight larch was erected in front of him, and the dark gray trunk was a deep scar like a ravine, and under the pale white faint light, the bark peeled off a little, revealing traces of wind, frost and rain. The tree sheltered itself from the sun, hiding its fragile side, so subtle and imperceptible, that it seemed that only a casual afternoon could see the shallow pain.

The corners of Luo Lan's eyes twitched, and a smile barely appeared on his face, and he opened his mouth with difficulty, "The ring in your junior brother's hand must have been obtained like this, right?"

Devany gave him a strange look, pondered for a moment, and nodded, "Of course, why did Pastor Langton suddenly remember this ring? ”

"Maybe it's because this beautiful ring and your brother's words have left me too much. Luo Lan replied cautiously, trying his best to restrain the churning waves in his heart, and he stepped out of the carriage. Then he made a gesture of holding the ground.

Devany smiled faintly and took Luo Lan's hand, at this time, she seemed to think of something, and said, "I just remembered that in order to kill that thief, in addition to my mentor, several long-retired powerhouses in the Monk Guild were also dispatched, because this thief was also a member of the Council of the Dead. ”

Luo Lan's heart shook heavily. His hands froze, but fortunately Daphne was firmly on the ground and didn't notice anything unusual about him.

Rommels' temper he knew, if not for any purpose. He would never join an organization or group easily, but it seemed that he had already died before his goal was achieved.

Is it because of this purpose that the monks are eyeing him?

I should have thought that with Dommels's skill, how could just one person kill him!

It's just that. What did he want to do? Luo Lan's mind was racing, he felt that Ommels' death was not as simple as it seemed on the surface, and there must be many inside stories hidden in it.

It seems that it was the right choice to stay with Daphne's side, so that a gap could be opened in the Council of the Dead and the Monks. Learn about the true cause of Rommels' death and his purpose.

Devany looked up and pointed to a wooden house on a high slope not far away, "This is the retreat of a monk of our Monks' Society, and he found some clues about the Council of the Dead a few days ago. And stayed in the wooden house. This time, the castle was mixed with necromancers, thanks to his reminders. ”

Luo Lan raised his eyes. In this land of land that smells in the sun, the wooden house sits peacefully in front of a lush forest. This peaceful sight calmed his troubled heart a little.

Footsteps sounded, and Cejess came to his side, and at all times, she had a vigilant and cold look.

The three of them stepped on the soft earth and grass, and in a short time they walked up the high slope, and Devine looked around vigilantly, then went straight forward and pushed open the wooden door, and said, "Flosandros ......"

The door creaked open, and the shadows of two people fell in.

The room was empty except for the simple furnishings and chairs, and the wooden windows were only blown by the gentle breeze through the mountains, which blew a curtain of curtains.

Devany frowned, as if surprised by the situation, looked around and sighed with some disappointment, "There's nothing here." ”

Luo Lan glanced inside the house, and the thief's professional eyes immediately found out from the dust left here that the people here had been gone for at least three days. Out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly noticed that there was something strange about the color of a wooden wall, which was almost impossible to distinguish from the appearance if he did not look closely.

His heart moved, he walked over slowly, raised his hand and tapped it lightly a few times, and sure enough, there was a sound like a hollow drum coming from inside.

"Here," Luo Lan groped around the wooden wall a few times, and immediately found the place where the gap connected, and with a slight flick, he unloaded a complete plank, revealing a hollow.

Under Daphne's watchful gaze, he cautiously reached inside and slowly pulled out a thick parchment from inside

Daphne took two steps forward and took the book, she reached out and did not turn it, when there was a sudden burst of extremely violent elemental fluctuations outside, and at the same time there was a cry from Xijiesi, just as the two of them lost their minds, a skinny little hand suddenly poked out of the air, grabbed the parchment, and pulled it from Daphne's hand, and then jumped up the window without looking back, and jumped out.

It was a pale gray child-like figure that moved quickly, extremely fast, and the whole process only happened in the blink of an eye, and Daphne didn't have time to react before she felt empty in her hands, and suddenly let out a soft sigh.

Almost at the same time, with a "whoosh", Luo Lan had disappeared from her side, leaving only the curtains dancing non-stop.

After Luo Lan jumped out of the wooden window, he only had time to catch a gray shadow passing by like an illusion, and the direction he went was the wood forest in front of him.

He snorted coldly, his feet suddenly increased his pace, and after running a few steps, he suddenly jumped high, and stepped heavily on a fallen withered tree trunk, and in the click and cracking sound, he jumped up high, and once again stepped on a horizontal branch, and suddenly crossed the space of seven or eight meters, and it was able to chase the pale gray figure flush.

He could already see in his eyes at this time, it was a bald head, huge eyes that took up almost the entire head, the bridge of the nose was collapsed, and there were two small winged demons with pointed ears, its head was only the size of a baby, and the light blue veins could be clearly seen under the light gray thin skin, and it was carrying a cloth bag on its back, which highlighted the outline of the book.

The little winged demon who was running turned his head as if he felt strange, opened his mouth at Luo Lan, lifted his lips, and showed two ridiculous little fangs like a demonstration, and let out a strange cry similar to that of a bird, which was unpleasant and harsh.

"Ah......h

There was also a scream not far away, and the same little winged demon sprang out in front of Luo Lan on the other side, and the two small winged demons went hand in hand, and then jumped up at the same time, suddenly staggered in the air, and separated again, and then ran left and right in different directions, and I don't know which hand the book went to.

If it is an ordinary person, they will definitely be hesitant for a short time by their trick, so as to miss the best opportunity to pursue.

However, Luo Lan sneered, he didn't want to think about it, he recognized one of them and chased after it, that parchment scroll was quite heavy, and his sharp and meticulous eyesight could only judge these slight differences from the speed of the activation of the two small wing demons.

The little winged demon who was pursued by him didn't expect Luo Lan to be fooled, and the speed was actually so fast, it let out a long hiss in fright, and its speed suddenly increased by a few points, this creature has very little courage, and has almost no attack and defense capabilities, so it can only rely on its own speed.

This time the little winged demon turned around, and it rushed towards the sparsely wooded place, obviously it found that it was not much faster in the densely wooded place, and its advantage could not be revealed, but it chased Luo Lan closer and closer.

The scenery on both sides quickly retreated, and after a while, the field of vision in front gradually widened, and a broken ravine appeared in front, a distance of more than 20 meters wide that could not be rushed over by jumping alone.

Luo Lan's heart was relaxed just now, who knew that instead of slowing down, the little wing demon suddenly lowered his body, crawled violently on all fours, and just before approaching the ravine, it let out a "ah" sound in the air, and its arms stretched out to both sides, revealing two pale cyan flexible webbed wings from the armpits, chest and abdomen to the wrists, although the wing-like thing could not fly automatically, but it was more than enough to glide over this distance.

Seeing that the little winged demon was about to leap into the air, Luo Lan's eyes showed a hint of fierceness, he stepped on it with a hard foot, and then rose up, the power was so great that a stone below fell deep into the thick soil, and he jumped high in the air and said loudly: "Ice Blade!"

A roar rang out beneath him, and the white-gold figure of the Ice Blade appeared out of thin air at his feet.

Luo Lan was a little heavier on its back, taking advantage of the momentum, the speed of the whole person suddenly doubled, and instantly chased the little wing demon head to end, his hand stretched out with all his might, and firmly grasped the opponent's ankle. There was a cold and slippery touch on his hand,

At this time, the little winged demon had already jumped out of the cliff, and there was a bottomless ravine below, and it suddenly felt that it had lost its balance, and it couldn't help but let out a terrified scream.

The two figures paused briefly in mid-air, and then fell straight down.
