Chapter 58: The Stranger

Any high-level professional can understand being superhuman.

Career level 10 and above basically master one or two supernatural abilities, such as the druid just now, who has been blessed with some kind of spell on her body, so she can leap through the trees. Sauron didn't have the curiosity to catch up, it was normal to meet strangers in the wilderness, some would communicate for a short time, but more of them passed by, as long as the other party had no malicious intent, the two sides would nod their heads at most.

Druids don't like to interact with ordinary people, even professionals.

They have a withdrawn personality and have their own pursuits, most of them have firm beliefs, and their behavior is biased towards neutrality, and they will sometimes attack anyone.

Balance is higher in their eyes than good and evil, because they believe that good and evil in the world are relative.

This is a group of people who are very similar to the Taoist people who advocate 'wu wei', but their aggression is not weak at all, and many people who over-destroy the nature of the forest will be mercilessly executed by them!

There was a period of alchemy research in the rise of human beings, mainly because of the discovery of a relic from the Arcane Empire period, from which many wizards discovered high-end alchemy knowledge, and even researched the construction of machinery factories for a time. But the pollution produced by the alchemy of magic energy destroys the water sources, but also pollutes the earth, kills animals, and destroys forests. This incident eventually led to the wrath of the druid community throughout the world, and terrible storms and lightning enveloped the entire emerging alchemy city, and finally all the qiē turned into ashes!

There are not many records left behind from that war.

It is only known that the druids defeated the Iron Golem Legion, and more than ten legendary druids attacked at the same time, including the extremely powerful Storm Lord.

The wizards were battered in this battle, with one Legendary Wizard dying and two Legendary Wizards being forced to transform into Lichs.

The study of magical alchemy has become taboo.

In order to appease these angry druids, the church of the human world also began to increase the restrictions on magic alchemy, because the place where the alchemy city was established in the first place, the river is still full of black pollutants, the nearby land is not suitable for human life, and the water source will produce metal poisoning after drinking. The druids stubbornly believe that this evil alchemical research will eventually completely destroy nature, cause irreparable damage to the environment, and ultimately bring disaster to the whole world!

So.

Even for dwarves and gnomes, some alchemical research is still carried out secretly.

Most wizards are not on the right path with the druids, because many of their academic studies are opposed and rejected by the druids, and even now there are druids hiding in the shadows to monitor the actions of wizards, preventing them from carrying out some terrible real-life disasters that can cause large-scale natural disasters, and sometimes they will also take care of the plagues and diseases spread by the degenerate.

Sauron walked back along the road.

Soon he saw the village he had seen at the beginning, with torches lit on all sides of the village, and the garrison of the arrow tower could be faintly seen.

"Who?" A stout man shouted downward.

Sauron's figure stepped out of the night, he raised his hands to indicate that he didn't hold a weapon, and then said, "Human." A traveling adventurer. ”

"I just met a group of kobolds and got a little wounded, and I hope I can rest here for the night."

When he saw Sauron's appearance, the people on the watchtower relaxed a little, and he shouted downward, and soon a man in leather armor appeared, who appeared to be the militia leader here. It was a man with a full beard, estimated to be thirty or forty years old, and he looked at Sauron with a frown, and asked, "Are you alone?" ”

"One person is not fit in the wilderness."

This is a former adventurer, he obviously has a lot of experience, and although he has judged Sauron's profession, he is still full of vigilance.

"I'm alone." Sauron lowered his hands and replied, "I want to exercise my abilities and look for further possibilities." ”

"So I'm alone in the wilderness."

The militia captain hesitated, then beckoned the others to open the gate, and continued, "You can rest here for the night, but I hope you won't cause us trouble." ”

"There won't be any trouble." Sauron smiled and said in a deep voice, "I'll leave tomorrow to hunt the monsters nearby." ”

"If you can, I'd like you to tell me about the distribution of monsters in my neighborhood."

Creatures in the wilderness naturally don't stay in one place honestly, and only the natives in the vicinity know the scope of their activities, so it's important to venture out into the wilderness to find out the news, and sometimes it can reduce a lot of trouble. The heavy gate of the fortress slowly opened, and five or six adult men stood nearby with weapons, still looking at Sauron with wary eyes, and seeing that there was no movement after he came in, he was a little relieved.

The militia captain climbed down from the arrow tower, he glanced Sauron up and down, his eyes fell on his bandaged wound, and then said: "It's rare to see a lonely adventurer like you, and I didn't expect that a wanderer would practice alone like a warrior monk. ”

Sauron laughed, but didn't answer the question.

The militia captain beckoned to his companions, then pointed to the side and said, "Stranger." We can't fully trust you yet. So no one will take you overnight, there is a firewood house where straw is stored. If you don't mind, spend the night there and I'll have someone bring you some hot soup and food. ”

Sauron nodded slightly, leaned over slightly, and said, "Thank you very much." I just need a place to sleep with peace of mind. After all, it's easy to be attacked by monsters in the wilderness. ”

The militia captain nodded, beckoning a young man to take him over.

After Sauron left, an adult man next to him said, "Captain? There's nothing wrong with him, right? A stranger after all. ”

"It shouldn't be a problem." The militia captain glanced behind him and whispered, "I'll go over and test him later, and see if he really killed a group of kobolds." It's been getting less and less safe in the neighborhood lately, and if someone can get rid of some monsters, we'll be a lot less stressed. ”

The wilderness is dangerous.

Although they avoided many taxes when establishing a village here, they also had to face a lot of trouble.

Soon.

The militia captain came with two men.

Sauron rested on the soft thatch, and redressed the wound on his leg, which was almost recovered. There shouldn't be any problems tomorrow, and it won't affect his next fight. The armed forces of this village are not weak, and Sauron saw several warriors of the second order or so, and among them should have been born experienced adventurers. The other party brought him hot soup, as well as a relatively dry and hard bread, plus a little pickles.

It was a somewhat chubby girl, with a little freckles on her face, who looked at Sauron curiously, and blushed a little when she saw his handsome appearance, looking like a very simple peasant girl. She seemed eager to stay and hear what they had to say, but when the militia captain glared at her, she honestly went back to sleep, and looked back at Sauron again before leaving. For such young people, adventurers always pique their curiosity.

Sauron thanked him softly, then took a sip of the hot soup, which contained mushrooms and vegetables, and the bread to be soaked.

Eating too much dry food is naturally uncomfortable.

It was no surprise that he was eating and answering the other party's words that were obviously asking and tentative, after all, he was a stranger.

"You're saying you killed a whole bunch of kobolds?"

A young man next to him had a skeptical expression, as if he didn't believe that Sauron had such strength.

He was not interested in explaining, and stretched out his hand to pull out the scimitar skirt and pull out the scimitar skirt and pull out the sash and pluck the scarf and the squeak and the sand

The militia captain had already put aside the doubts in his heart and nodded: "No problem." ”

"There are quite a few monsters running out of the area, and we've been hoping that someone can deal with them. You can always come here to rest in the future, and I will have someone prepare food and a place to sleep for you. ”

"Uh."

"It's late today, if you don't mind, you can come to my house and sleep for the night. In two days I'll have a room vacated for you. ”

Sauron smiled and shook his head in refusal, patted the haystack and said, "No need. It's good here. I'm used to it. ”

"Now tell me about the distribution of monsters."
