Chapter 42: The Witch's Night Arrives

A white full moon hangs high in the night sky.

The walls around Neverwinter City were all lit with bonfires, and the iron fence of the city gate had been half lowered, and the guards were waiting for them.

Almost all the shops in the city were closed.

It was difficult to see people in the streets, so everyone closed their doors and hid in their homes.

And on the main road outside the city, there are still sporadic fires, all of which are rushing to Neverwinter City to take refuge at the last point in time.

A wagon transports the villagers' grain, followed by people riding horses and whips to drive the sheep into the city.

The guards gave the leader a number and key, and complained, "Why is it that you are still the last in Turbulence Village this year?" ”

"It shouldn't be this year, we saw people from Tashi Village on the way here, and they were just packing their things."

"You people are really doing things." The guard complained, "Hurry up, your village goes to room 8 of the shelter in Area C." ”

"Can you change us to a bigger house, there are 75 people in our village, there are more than 40 women, such a small room, it is very inconvenient to live."

"You're too late, the big house has been selected early, this is already the last one, if you don't, you can only go live in the sewers."

"Yes, yes, yes." The head of Turbulence Village took the number plate and the key, and sighed: "We also want to come early, but there is really no way." ”

......

Rhodes stood at the window.

Observe the situation outside the city gate with a telescope, and when the full moon rises to the sky, the real witch's night will arrive.

It depends.

There are still many villagers on their way, and this year it is said that due to the weather, the ripening of crops in some villages has been delayed.

As a result, the time to enter the city has slowed down.

At this moment, Rhodes noticed a whole row of fires not far away, but suddenly most of them were extinguished.

Rhodes who realizes that something is wrong.

The peasants who thought it was supposed to be the city had been attacked, after all, the smell of witches near Neverwinter was getting stronger and stronger.

Rhodes forced Roth to wear a special mask produced by Vallon to isolate the smell, if you don't wear it, when the Witch Night breaks out, a large amount of witch breath may make Loth faint.

This time of year.

Rhodes had Roth lay on the floor in the safe house, which had been specially designed by the Great Wizard to keep out the scent of the witch so that she wouldn't be so uncomfortable.

With less and less fire.

Rhodes looked through the binoculars on the city walls, where Captain Gray and his archers were stationed.

The four-legged monsters are easy to deal with, and those with wings are really annoying, and if they are allowed to fly over first, they will still cause a lot of trouble to the city's citizens.

See Captain Gray has no time to clone.

Rhodes logged into the game clone and told Loth to stay in the safe house and watch his own body.

As the Lord of Neverwinter, he has the duty and obligation to protect his people as they suffer and their lives continue to pass.

This time when he went out, Rhodes brought the [Silver Fire Sword] with him.

Although this sword is not sharp, it has a special damage effect on monsters infected with the breath of witches.

Before going out, Rod picked up a small fireball.

He shoved a magic core into its mouth and said, "It's done." ”

"Uh-uh~~"

"I'm going to die~~"

The little flame that was almost choked by the demon core wanted to be angry, but after seeing Luo Si's murderous eyes again, it instantly quieted down.

"For the sake of what you give me, I'll forgive you for being rude." Little Flame whispered.

Except for small flames.

Rhodes also called Liana, the transformer.

In addition to the fact that the health bar and blue bar are longer than normal people, the transformer has another benefit.

As long as you don't get beheaded, stabbed once or twice, broken hands and feet, the last room can be repaired for you, but the price of repair is a bit expensive.

......

The two people wearing cloaks came to the city gate and were immediately stopped by the captain of the guards: "The city lord ordered: It's been time, and you can't leave the city now." ”

Rhodes lifted a corner of his cloak so that the captain of the guard could see his face, and in an instant the captain of the guard became nervous and just wanted to salute.

Rod put his finger to his mouth, made a silent gesture, and asked, "Can I go out now?" ”

"Yes, sir, do you need me to send someone to protect you?"

Rod shook his head.

Led Liana out of the city gates.

And all the guards looked at the captain suspiciously, and asked, "Didn't the city lord say that he would not let him out, why did he still release the people?" ”

"Do your job, ask so much what to do." The captain of the guard couldn't help but curse as he looked at the gossipy guards.

"Just ask, what kind of anger is there."

"It shouldn't be the captain who secretly earns the benefit fee?"

"Earn your head."

In fact, he was also very confused, as one of the few people who had contact with the city lord, he could be sure that the person just now was indeed the city lord.

It's just that Lord Castle, didn't he always hide in a safe house at this time in previous years?

What's going on this year?

To go out of the city at such a dangerous time, and not let the soldiers protect him, he glanced at the woman beside the city lord, could she be the legendary witch hunter Loth.

She alone can be worth half of the guards, and with her, there is really no need for guards to guard.

However, he was still vaguely worried in his heart, could it be that this year's witch night was very serious, and the city lord ran away in advance.

If this is the case, wouldn't these people in the city have no way to live, and the great wizard Ivan in previous years will also come out to help at this point in time, but so far this year, I haven't even seen a single figure.

The captain of the guard frowned, worried in his heart.

"Let's hope this year goes well."

......

After Rhodes walked out of the city gates.

Running quickly to the place where the fire had disappeared, and only halfway through the run, I heard a scream, and followed the source of the sound.

An ant the size of a basin cut a hole in a young man's body, and the young man's expression was so painful that it twisted before he died.

------

Ironclad ants

Level: Level 5

Health: 200/200

Mana: 0/0

An ant that lives in the interior of the Misty Forest, its body is as hard as iron armor, its weaknesses are its joints, its wings, and its fear of fire.

------

Seeing the villager who was afraid of death, Rod angrily raised his staff, and it was directly a fireball, enveloping the ironclad ants in the fireball.

“-20”

“-20”

......

As the scorching sound ended, the wings of the ironclad ants were burned off and fell to the ground.

Rhodes slashed upwards.

With a "bang", he flicked the knife, and his hand was directly numb, but the ironclad ant was not injured at all, and rushed towards Rod fiercely.

At this moment, Liana the Transformer spat out silk from a strange part.

Wrapped around the junction between the ant's neck and body, the ant's head was strangled off by a thin wire with a flick of her flick.

Or the Assassins are the most efficient.

At this moment, screams came from the front one after another, and Rod, who was nervous, said to Liana: "Do I want to move my back?" ”

"Yes, master." Liana replied.

Liana, who has changed back into the prototype, has eight legs, and how the two-legged Rod runs, naturally she can't run as fast as her.

Rod didn't mind being carried by a reformer, but the next second, he was stunned, Liana stretched out her hands, one hand on Rod's back, the other on her knees, and then hugged her.

Rhodes froze with his mouth open, and was hugged by a woman to the princess.

Liana explained: "Master, I have a lot of burrs on my back, and I'm afraid of pricking you, is it okay to hold it like this?" ”

Rhodes, who wanted to refuse, thought that the peasants who had been attacked were dying one by one, and how could he care about so much.

Besides, the feeling of being hugged by the princess is pretty good, and the face is in contact with two soft things, hell, it feels very comfortable.

No, Rhodes tried to close his eyes.

Thinking seriously about the posture of her lower body, after thinking about it for a few seconds, she instantly had no desire.

Ask for tickets, ask for a full service.
