Chapter 57 The Role of the Oil Bottle
In the steel city, there are dark alleys as complex as cobwebs between the towering buildings.
Wren pulled the "oil bottle" with only a black cloak and sped into a narrow alley, then turned countless times until it was far away from the previous magic shop before re-entering the street and blending in with the crowd of pedestrians.
Wren didn't dare to stay in the first city for a long time, so he took the intercity rail train and ran directly from the first city to the third city more than ten kilometers away.
He originally decided that as long as this barbarian chick struggled and resisted at all, he would not hesitate to let go and abandon her!
Unexpectedly, since entering the magic goods store, this energetic and unruly chick like a female leopard has never tossed again. Even if Wren stripped off her clothes to do magic to disperse, she didn't resist at all, but just let it be done with a humiliated face.
Even without the rope restraints, the barbarian chick did not choose to run away, and was obediently pulled around by Wren.
She knows very well that she can't speak a language, and the only result of escaping in the "Devil's City" is to be caught.
But... She knew she couldn't be caught by the invaders who stole the relics of the clan!
......
In this way, the two crossed two large cities before stopping.
After making sure that he was not being followed, Wren quietly entered a hunter's inn called "Bearded Inn".
It is a luxuriously renovated inn with a single room for 3,000 miles a night.
But Wren is not like a countess who is interested in enjoyment, and he doesn't really have such a refined need for accommodation.
But the more upscale the hostel, the less likely it is to be traced. The more low-end the hostel, the more there are three religions and nine streams, and no secrets can be hidden.
Living here will reduce a lot of potential pitfalls.
He had to be careful enough not to get targeted again by the pros.
Wren first took the barbarian chick to open a room.
Then after entering the room, he jumped out of the window and left, and after changing his disguise, he was alone again, as a solo traveler, and registered the room directly above the upper floor of the room just now.
Then he transferred the savage chick to the room upstairs.
In this way, the first room downstairs was vacant.
This is not an overkill, but a deceptive trick.
The "Shining City" was originally the capital of hunters, but recently the news of the discovery of large coal mines and ruins has spread, attracting dozens of times the usual flow of outsiders, and the city is full of hostels.
It is very difficult for those "mysterious people" to track down them one by one.
But Wren didn't underestimate the resolve of the men who had followed them before.
If someone comes to investigate, the first thing they will do is to keep an eye out for a man and a woman travelling with a tenant.
If the front desk sells out their check-in information, those people may look up the downstairs room. Seeing an empty room, those "mystery people" will immediately subjectively think that the prey has escaped.
And if someone breaks in, some small means left by Wren can also let him know immediately that someone downstairs has broken in, and immediately think of escaping.
It's not for Wren himself, though, it's for that savage chick.
That's right, he paid for ten days, intending to put this "drag oil bottle" here alone.
In case she doesn't get caught, she will be led ten days later.
In case he was caught, he also had a reasonable explanation for dealing with the lady. In the face of the kind of mysterious organization that looks like a lot at first glance, this is the best he can do to ensure his safety.
.......
The savage chick was obviously very intelligent, and she understood what she could do as she watched Wren turn the room upside down twice.
"It's the magic bell, you hear it ring, there's someone breaking in downstairs. You have to run away at once..."
Wren also knew that she didn't understand, so he even made a gesture, shook the bell, and made a move to open the door and escape. It's like a funny dad who teaches children to babble.
Before leaving, he untied the forbidden collar around her neck.
This is the last bondage, and now the barbarian chick is really free.
"That's all I can help you with. If you choose to escape, then you are free to do so, but I don't think you will be able to escape this city. If you're still here in ten days, I'll come back to you..."
Wren babbled on and on, not caring if she could understand or not.
Anyway, it doesn't matter, there are only two ways for her to choose, either escape or stay in the room, and she can definitely imagine the ending.
With that, he left enough food in the house and was ready to open the door and leave.
This kind of trouble is better to be less involved.
......
“???”
But just as he stepped out of the door, Wren found that his clothes had been ripped off.
Looking back, the barbarian chick stared at herself with a pair of big watery black eyes, and then said a string of things that she didn't understand: "&*%ф%¥ё¥..."
I don't know if it's because of the feeding in the past few days, or if I can occasionally exchange a few words, so that this chick's hostility towards herself is not so strong. At this moment, there is no hatred in her eyes except helplessness and longing.
Thinking about it, I probably wanted to let myself help her.
Wren shrugged his shoulders, and he was already determined, and said, "I don't understand, and I can't help you... So be it! ”
As he spoke, he insisted on leaving, but the hand holding his clothes did not let go at all.
"Hey, hey, hey... If you just pull me, I won't stay. ”
With that, Wren was about to rip off his clothes.
But at this moment, the savage girl suddenly changed her expression, and then dipped her finger in the water glass, and wrote a string of words on the wall beside her.
“...”
Wren looked at the crooked words, and probably saw that this seemed to be the words of those barbarians.
I can't understand it anyway, so what's the difference between writing and speaking.
But after skipping a line, the barbarian girl suddenly changed the font. She wrote another line under the same line she had just written.
But not the previous barbarian script, but another ancient script!
The handwriting is very standardized, and it is not difficult to see that she is very familiar with this ancient character!
"Munkel Guwen?!"
Wren looked at the system's comparison prompts, and his face showed an extremely shocked look.
Although some of the "smart brains" in this row are not included, several words are exactly the same as those that have been recorded.
This barbarian chick not only knows the barbarian language, but is also proficient in the ancient Monkel language?
Thinking that the "Forest of Ashes" has produced so many antiquities of the Monkel civilization, it is reasonable that those primitive people who lived on the ruins know some of them.
At this moment, Wren couldn't move at all.
He thought to himself: "I guess when I was shopping before, I stopped a little longer at the stalls with 'Munkel Ancient Script', so that she noticed that I was interested in this kind of writing... Or maybe you know this kind of language. ”
The remains of the Monkel civilization in the "Forest of Ashes" have been discovered, and recently many artifacts unearthed from the ruins have been discovered by hunters and brought back to the city. Now in the markets and shops on the street, there are many pottery pots, wall tiles, stone slabs and other utensils that record some scattered ancient characters...
Previously, Wren took this chick on the street to determine the stalker, and found those ancient relics for sale, and by the way, he also scanned those ancient characters with his "wisdom brain".
So, obviously a little longer than looking at something else.
The chick keenly grasped this, and tried to use this kind of text to convey to herself what she wanted to express.
......
"You write a few more words and see..."
Wren pointed to the dried "ancient Monkel" handwriting on the wall, and made another gesture.
The barbarian girl's dark eyes suddenly lit up with a different color, she thought that Wren understood what she had written, and then dipped it in water and wrote a long row.
It's a pity that Wren didn't understand.
However, this did not affect him to be sure that the barbarian girl in front of him was really proficient in this ancient script.
Now, it's a little difficult to choose.
In Wren's folded space there is also a dense scroll written in the "ancient Monkel script", which is the most important thing in the "Morin Relic".
He himself was curious about what an unknown civilization with airship technology would leave on the Secret Scroll.
In front of me, I suddenly came across an excellent opportunity.
A human being who is proficient in this ancient script!
