As soon as it was dawn the next day, Xiao Yan and the soldiers set off. Sonia hadn't slept well last night and yawned on the horse. The soldiers got up and made a fuss, but then went back to sleep. When they got up early in the morning and drank the thick wheat porridge of the townspeople, the soldiers were in good spirits again.

The 100-strong team had lost another cavalryman and a knight last night. Speaking of which, ghouls are not very strong in combat, and if it weren't for the knights, they would not have been killed if they were attacked after the banquet and were attacked when they were unprepared.

Xiao Yan reminded the surviving knights, and was very malicious enough to distort the tragic experience in front of the murdered knights.

"Double fly~ Naturally, I'm very happy. The hateful thing is that those evil ghouls transform halfway through the game and take a bite directly...... I bit it down. ”

"Holy!"

"!"

The two knight lords survived last night, and they felt miserable when they heard Xiao Yan say this. Xiao Yan saw the sad expressions of these two people, and thought that he should be more restrained now.

……

The group arrived at the town of Darsun at noon for a short rest.

The town of Darsun is also a large town rich in grain, and it is located on a major transportation route, so there are many merchants coming and going.

But the whole town was shrouded in a gloomy atmosphere, and the mayor who greeted him at the entrance of the town had a sad face and talked about the terrible experience of the town in the past two days.

"At first we thought it was the grave keeper who had drunk too much. Later, more and more undead crawled out of the cemetery and attacked the villagers of the town. None of the troops sent out in pursuit returned. ”

In the barracks near the town of Darsun was stationed a squadron of the Kingdom Army, a hundred men. It has been four days since the captain who commanded the unit sent more than 20 soldiers into the forest to investigate.

"The march of the army cannot be stopped." Xiao Yan decided to stay with Sonia and the knights, and the slower-moving foot soldiers, chariots and horses continued to move forward and converge in the territory of Lamour.

"When you arrive in the territory, gather an army in the name of the Count, the more the better." Xiao Yan glanced at the suspicious sergeant and added, "Miss Earl received the news that there is a big war in the short term, and the more power we have, the better." ”

"Yes, my lady." After receiving Sonya's affirmative answer, the sergeant immediately gathered the infantry and left, leaving Xiao Yan to lament the huge gap between identity and influence on the characters in the plot.

Four of the 10 cavalry had been hung, and Xiao Yan and Sonia rode with the rest of the cavalry to the cemetery where the dead were resurrected.

Although it was noon, the haze and fog made it impossible to feel the time at all, and the cemetery was silent, as if time had stopped flowing.

Xiao Yanze's horse walked along the path of the cemetery, and the two sides were full of large pits dug from the inside out.

"Where are we going to look for clues?" A disgusting stench filled the air, and Sonia covered her nose with a look of disgust as she looked at the pit where the body had been buried.

"We don't need to look for clues." Xiao Yan calmly rode his horse and walked, "Our main task is to mobilize the troops in the territory, which is the key to the main task." As for reconnaissance here, that's incidental. It's nothing if you don't find it. ”

About 20 infantry of the Kingdom Army followed Sonia and the others, after all, such a terrible thing happened in their jurisdiction, and it was impossible to do it without an explanation.

"There's a forest ahead." Pointing to a corner of the cemetery, the corporal of the Kingdom Army, who led the team, said, "The fence there was torn down by the living dead, and from there they entered the forest. It was there that the reconnaissance team that had been sent before entered the forest. ”

Xiao Yan took a closer look, nodded and led the team back. Back at the town hall, the mayor was already leading the town's leading figures to wait.

The mayor of the town was diligent enough to introduce Sonia to the town's grain merchants, the captain of the garrison, the big farmer, and a rare scholar. Sonya's status meant that her respectful courtesy to others was only a nod of respect, but the gray-haired scholar was the only one that caught her interest.

"I didn't think there was such a knowledgeable ...... in town Well...... How can I say it......"

"Oh haha, this is Dr. Rovot, a university scholar." Mayor Marew smiled and said, "The Doctor is the most knowledgeable person in the town because he is proficient in alchemy, medicine, the occult, astrology, and so on. ”

"I can't imagine it." Xiao Yan and Sonia looked at each other and smiled.

"Hmph, the old man doesn't have time to play these boring games with you nobles......" the scholar Suwot snorted disdainfully, full of the arrogance of an old pedant, "My time is very precious, if nothing else does, I will go back." ”

"Don't be like that, the Lamor family has always provided a great deal of support for the welfare of the townspeople and their investment in education, and even the school in the town was donated by the Count when he was young." The mayor didn't dare to let this old old man sweep away Miss Count's face, so he hurriedly retained, "Miss Lamour's ice and snow is smart, and she will be very interested in your research." ”

"Yes! I'm interested, can you tell me more about that? Sonia asked, tilting her head and smiling sweetly.

"The value of the old man's research is not something you can understand!" Suwert turned and left, "The old man is looking for eternal knowledge, and there is simply not enough time. ”

"That's why you want to become a lich, so you can spend more time researching?" Xiao Yan said with a smile.

……

Depend on! What is this little brother talking about? The mayor and the knights were dumbfounded.

Lich? Are they saying that the scholars are lichs?

Suwert was like a thunderbolt from Odin, and froze on the spot.

"University Scholar Suwot (Elite). Race: Human/Undead Infected. Attributes: Strength 9, Agility 9, Stamina 15, Perception 20, Intelligence 35, Spirit 35, Charisma 7. ”

Although ordinary plot characters can't see it, contractors can see their panels, unless the perception attribute is suppressed to a question mark. In addition, this bachelor who is obsessed with research is also too careless, which may be the reason why he is too anxious, the experiment went wrong, and he didn't even realize that he had become an undead infected.

In addition to Xiao Yan and them, holy professions such as paladins and priests in this world would also sense the strong aura of the undead on the college students if they were present.

"Why the Lich? You can see that he has become a lich. Sonia didn't see this prompt on the panel, and asked with some curiosity.

"Although he did not become a lich, if such a magician did not work hard to become a lich in the end, wouldn't all his skills and knowledge be wasted." Xiao Yan shrugged, "He won't be satisfied with being a ghoul. ”

"Makes sense!"
