237. The Slippery Nebet
In the tavern, the two dead men were laid flat next to each other by their companions, and their deaths were very tragic, and the people around them were sad and wiped their still eyelids, so that they could feel at ease when they died.
Shou Yue, Xia Zuo, and Long Ge entered the tavern one after the other, and there were very few people left hereβthe shopkeeper, the waiter, and the three adventurers who seemed to be close to the deceased.
β... I'm sorry. "Watchmoon stopped beside the crowd for a moment, and could only utter a sentence in his mouth. The guardian was invisible, and had long since merged into her body.
"It's not your fault, it's all to blame on those murderous bastards of the Kingdom Army!" The man crouching next to the corpse gritted his teeth.
"Yes ma'am," the shopkeeper lowered her eyes, "you helped us destroy the monster, otherwise if we wait, it is estimated that the Kingdom Army will not deal with it for us, and there will be more innocent dead and wounded." β
Shouyue nodded silently.
"Why would they look for you like that... Are you a wanted criminal? But the other man didn't seem so polite, looking at the moon with bloodshot eyes.
Watchmoon didn't answer his question, just stood upright and bowed apologetically.
"Why don't you answer me?"
The man stepped forward and was stopped by others, "What are you doing, the female swordsman helped us, and the culprit is the Kingdom Army!" β
The man realized that his words and deeds were out of line, and he restrained his attitude slightly.
Accompanied by Long Ge, Xia Zuo watched all this from behind - Shou Wangyue was really a taciturn person, talking to her, always constricting his face, and he didn't like to answer most questions.
Before entering the tavern, Xia Zuo identified himself, but Shou Wangyue still looked unappreciative.
There are no guards needed, please go back. She just said something like that.
Of course, if you finally find her, you have to find a way to persuade and persuade, otherwise how to get a clue to Sangilf's magic.
The Tavern House of Fallen Leaves is located in the north of the Vermilion King's capital Silver Scarlet City, in the border area, and only a small number of people come and go on weekdays are nationals, and most of them are outsiders.
These passers are just passing by, and they will not even go to Silver Scarlet City, and naturally they will not trade with Silver Scarlet City, but only take advantage of the location of the Vermilion Kingdom to go to the western and eastern neighbors, as well as to the sea.
Therefore, the Vermilion Kingdom will not give a welcome attitude, even if the tavern owner is a citizen of the kingdom and sends a letter asking for help, he still does not get a timely reply. Even if there are monsters in the vicinity, the dead and injured are unrelated people from outside the country, the kingdom thinks so.
The new court mage Nebet unleashed his flying magic with all his might, and the woodlands and rivers flowed beneath him, and he soon reached Silversmith City, a Terran city no less large than Zebel in the north.
Before entering the city, he uses magic to release five flashes of light, so that the distant wall guards know that it is his return.
A black shadow swept through the air, and the guards did not see his true face, but the signal could not be wrong, and they all stood up straight and saluted.
Nebet swept over the city, a rare sight for the townspeople, and they stopped to pay attention, and finally he landed straight in front of the King's Castle.
"There was an emergency! Go and inform Judd and Shadow, and come with me to your Majesty! Nebet shouted anxiously to the guards.
Soon after, yawning acting king Zangwil came to sit down in the throne room, and several ministers and the main warriors had been waiting for a long time, led by Nebet.
The throne room is based on red cloth and red masonry, corresponding to the name of the country.
According to common sense, the new court mage Nebet is not as qualified as the old mage and should not be at the forefront, but today he has brought very important news. Recently, he has gone out many times to find the illegitimate daughter of the former Queen Hannah, Watchmoon, also in order to make more contributions and improve his status, and he is the youngest and most potential among the court mages.
Nebet succeeded today, and Zangwil was willing to respond to his request to summon the minister on the day of rest.
"Nebet, where did you say my sister's daughter is!?" Zangwill, who was full of sleepiness, held back his spirit and asked.
The eyes of the courtiers were all focused on Nebet, including Judd and Shadow, whom he had repeatedly instructed the guards to deliver the message, and they would definitely be present as necessary combat strength.
"Your Majesty, I found her in the northern part of the kingdom," Nebet adjusted his breathing and said steadily, "According to the clues in the letter I accidentally obtained in the royal capital, I found that an incident in the northern border has been resolved, and this incident is absolutely not very human to handle, I wanted to send someone to find out, maybe I can recruit excellent warriors, but unexpectedly, according to the characteristics obtained, I was surprised that the warrior resembled the moon watchman, so I personally led the troops there, and sure enough, I found her." β
"Hey, the search doesn't matter," Zangwille said impatiently as the other man's voice fell, "Listening to the guard's message, why didn't you kill her?" β
The ministers were all puzzled by this, because Nebet's strength was by no means inferior, could it be that the daughter of the former queen still had the ability to defeat him?
Judd scoffed, and the exhaled air slammed into the helmet that covered his face, sending out an echo of a metal container.
Judd is a strong man nearly two meters tall, carrying a metal longbow and heavy sword, stitched from head to toe with alloy heavy armor, and even the front of the helmet is a thick metal with no openings - with the magic circle carved on the metal surface, Judd can see the outside world without obstruction, and breathe air, the circle will only pass through safe gas, so the poisonous gas has no effect on Judd.
With a heavy sword and a variety of other weapons, both ranged and melee combat, Judd is considered to be the last warrior to stand alone on the battlefield between thousands of enemy troops.
Beside him, however, were warriors who were also highly used by the king, assassins and assassins to be exact, named Shadow, dressed in light black and masked, with an exotic face visible only from the upper part of his face.
Holding the shadow of his hands and carrying a thin straight knife, he rarely interacts with people, because for reasons that are not well known, he is working hard for King Zangwill, and usually returns the task - bring the enemy's head, throw it to Zangwill, and will not look at the king squarely, Zangwill not mind, always smiling at him who has completed the task well.
Because of the existence of the shadow, the surrounding countries have always been afraid of being assassinated by this mysterious magic, including the enemy country Indigo Forest.
"Brooks the orc is dead," Nebet was silent for a moment, and as soon as he opened his mouth in response, he was exclaimed, for Brooks was considered the second strongest warrior after Judd, "a strange swordsman killed him." β
β... I don't care if the orcs live or die. "What I'm asking is why you didn't cut off my niece's head in time to see me!?" β
"It's that weird swordsman," Nebet raised his head, raising his voice, "he stopped everything, and not only Brooks, but the swordsman, in the blink of an eye, wiped out my army of five hundred." β
The hall was amazed one after another, including Zangwill, except for Judd, who smiled slightly behind the invisible helmet, and the corners of his mouth showed interest; The shadow was still silent, on the surface it was none of his business, but in his heart he felt regretful, as if for this reason, the king was going to arrange for himself to kill again, which sounded difficult.
