Chapter 14: I Am the Culprit
Chapter 14: I'm the Culprit
The bells rang rhythmically one after another, and the entire Auckland Walled City could be heard clearly.
"What's going on?" Lawson asked in surprise.
Selena looked up at the sky and shook her head in confusion.
At this time, the two warriors, a man and a woman, appeared yesterday, they were anxious, and they were obviously relieved when they saw Selena, but they frowned again after seeing Rosen.
Selena also saw it, she shook her head and said to Rosen, "Rosen, my ...... My friend is looking for me, I'm leaving, it looks like something has happened, you should also fall back to the place! ”
Rosen waved goodbye to Selena, he could feel the unkind eyes of the two warriors, and he was very depressed in his heart, he didn't offend you at all! I really want to go up and ask clearly, because Mao is hostile to me? However, as soon as he remembered the powerful momentum of the two fighters, Rosen decisively gave up......
Rosen didn't go back to the house immediately after Selena left, he wanted to find out what was going on, so he asked someone at random.
The man paused for a moment and said, "You're a foreigner!" Well, this bell is a warning of the Warcraft tide, that is, there is a group of Warcraft will pass nearby, although it will not necessarily attack the walled city, but still be prepared. ”
Warcraft Tide!
These three words may sound fearful and fearful to others. But Rosen's first reaction when he heard it was three words...... Experience points!
However, if it was really a large number of demonic beasts, he really didn't dare to face it now, after all, the black mage level was only 12......
There were guards on the street who began to dredge everyone to go home, but Lawson, who originally planned to go back to the hotel, couldn't suppress his curiosity, after all, he was only 21 years old, and his mind had not completely gotten rid of the curiosity and curiosity of young people, and he also wanted to see what the tide of Warcraft was like, so he simply ran to the city gate.
The main gate of the walled city had long been closed, and many soldiers were climbing the city wall in an orderly manner, and Lawson even saw a magician wearing a magic robe and holding a staff hurrying towards the magic tower.
"Hey, didn't you hear the Warcraft tide alarm, why don't you hurry home!" A non-commissioned officer stepped forward to stop Rosen from running over.
Lawson scratched his head and said, "That, I want to see the Warcraft tide!" ”
As soon as the words came out, Lawson regretted it, and sure enough, the non-commissioned officer immediately straightened his face: "Once the Warcraft tide attacks the walled city, it will be a vicious battle, maybe many people will die, and you are still in the mood to watch the excitement!" That's what I hate the most about people like you! Someone ...... coming."
Seeing that the next result was not good, Rosen hurriedly took out his staff from the inventory and said to the non-commissioned officer: "No, you are mistaken, in fact, I am an adventurer, well, I am a magic professional, I want to see if I can help, one more person has more strength!" ”
As soon as he heard the words of the magic professional, the non-commissioned officer's words also stopped, although he was a little suspicious that the other party had no energy fluctuations, but he found that there was an extra staff in Lawson's hand out of thin air, and he immediately thought that it was space equipment, which was quite rare, so he did not have the slightest doubt about Lawson's words, and his tone softened.
"It turned out to be a magic professional, I just blamed you, since you want to play a part, of course it would be better, Tony, come and bring this magic professional to the city wall to defend the position."
The next moment, the soldier named Tony took Rosen up the city wall and brought Rosen to a defensive position that revealed his body, which was mostly full of archers, and there were also a small number of magic professionals, who also had long-range attacks.
On the top of the city wall of more than ten meters, condescending, Rosen's heart surged with bursts, he saw at first glance a large patch of smoke and dust in the distant wilderness kept moving, and the dense small black dots below, as the distance approached, it could be clearly seen that it was a demonic beast, this scene was spectacular, and it was extremely shocking.
Finding Rosen's expression, Tony next to him explained in a low voice: "This lord, you are a foreigner, this wave of demonic beasts is not uncommon in the Auckland walled city, these demonic beasts are all migrated to the Red Moon Forest, and usually do not attack the walled city." ”
The Blue Continent magic professionals themselves are scarce, so it is common sense to be respected, of course, if they know that Lawson is an advanced professional black mage, it will definitely be even more shocking.
Magicians are the most basic professions, and the smallest number of all the warriors in the Azure Continent are magicians and healers, and those who have advanced to special professions are even rarer.
"Oh! It turned out to be a migration of Warcraft, but this number is a bit much, estimated to be thousands! Rosen didn't care about the title and sighed.
Tony pouted and said: "Don't you know, the Auckland Walled City is close to the Red Moon Forest, and there are not too many high-level demonic beasts on the periphery of the Red Moon Forest, so it is a paradise for adventurers, and a large number of low-level demonic beasts will be hunted and killed every year, so when a certain number of certain demonic beasts in the Red Moon Forest are as low as a certain number, there will be the same kind of demonic beasts in various regions to migrate." It's just that there was a Warcraft tide some time ago, and it didn't take long to ......"
After hearing this, an answer suddenly appeared in Rosen's heart, "Could it be because I have killed too many people in the past few days...... This scale is too impactful, and I hope I don't change direction and come this way. ”
As the tide of Warcraft got closer and closer, Lawson felt a little numb in his scalp.
In fact, as Tony said, the Warcraft tide did not advance towards the Auckland Walled City, but passed far away, and there is no record of the Warcraft tide attacking the town in history, it is said that just thirty years ago, there was a time, but the level of the Warcraft tide at that time was not high, and the highest Warcraft was only the third rank, and the border guards of the kingdom were enough to resist, and even then there were heavy losses, causing countless casualties.
When the tide of demonic beasts approached, the majesty of the collective charge of the thousands of demonic beasts was also shocking, and Lawson's scalp became more and more numb...... As the distance got closer, Lawson could barely see clearly, most of the monsters in the herd were sharp-toothed wild boars, coyotes, black diamond snakes, and even a lot of fiery bead bees.
"Damn, these kinds? It's really because I've killed too much! "Rosen remembered the words of the demon wolf Fingal before, 'Some of the small number of demonic beasts will go out to find their kindred, and then migrate over to maintain the habitat rate of the area.'"
Rosen was a little speechless, if he let others know that such a spectacular demonic beast was wet and he made it single-handedly, I don't know how many people's jaws would be shocked, just kidding, one person slaughtered so many demonic beasts in the Red Moon Forest in a short time, is this still human!
The tide of Warcraft came and went quickly, but fortunately, there was no danger, and when Lawson came down from the city wall, he also saw a few adventurers, who basically volunteered to help. Most of the adventurers have hunted Warcraft, and they have much more experience in fighting Warcraft than soldiers, and if the Warcraft tide changes direction, they will also be a powerful combat force.
Not long after the tide of Warcraft was gone, the alarm was completely lifted, and the Nalan Xiang Festival would continue. Soon, the main street was filled with dense crowds again, and all kinds of activities began again, and it is not difficult to see from this that the people of Auckland are used to it, and there is no panic at all.
At this time, Rosen didn't have Nina to accompany him, and he was shy in his pocket, so he didn't have the money even if he saw strange things, so he didn't have the mood to continue shopping, so he went to the adventurer's guild.
The Adventurer's Guild is not an official organization, nor does it belong to any country, it is said that it was created thousands of years ago by the legendary mercenary Gregory and his mercenary group, and its headquarters is in the mercenary city of North Wind City, North Wind City does not belong to any country, basically in every slightly larger town will set up an adventurer guild, the purpose of their establishment is mainly to solve Warcraft-related tasks for ordinary people.
After all, it is much more convenient to have a place where anyone can post a quest, and it is just as convenient for adventurers or mercenary groups to take quests. In principle, the guild will not participate in any country's wars, but if it is against the evil god forces or the attack of demonic beasts, they have an unshirkable responsibility.
The Adventurer's Guild building is located in the eastern part of the city's training district, which is less noisy than the bustling business district, with fully armed adventurers everywhere, and the imposing three-story building behind the central plaza is the Auckland branch of the Adventurers' Guild. The square is home to a stone statue of the legendary mercenary Gregory, who is believed in by many adventurers.
Lawson looked around and entered the adventurer's guild, there was a lot of noise inside, many adventurers were in the hall, some were chatting, some were waiting in line at the counter, and some were browsing the billboards around to find a suitable task.
Here, just by dressing up, you can tell that there are a variety of professions, which is enough to see how busy the business of the Adventurer's Guild is.
After Lawson came in, many people were attracted by his alternative dress. In their eyes, although Rosen's dress is peculiar, but there is no energy fluctuation in the clothes or anything, it is not a powerful equipment at all, and Rosen himself does not even have the slightest energy fluctuation, he is not a fighter at all, in their opinion, Rosen is here to issue a mission.
So, not long after Lawson came in, several people surrounded him, and one of them was an orc!
Although his face is close to that of a human, the silhouette of some fierce beasts and lions can be clearly seen, and the exaggerated long hair shows his identity. Leo!
The lion man spoke first, and his voice was loud: "What level of task does this little brother want to release and how much will he be paid, can you reveal it in advance!" ”
For adventurers, it is rare to find a task with a good remuneration process that is not so dangerous, because that kind of task will basically be picked up as soon as it is released, and those difficult tasks, except for some strong people or large mercenary groups dare to take it, small mercenary teams or adventurers who temporarily form a team have no idea at all, so there are many behaviors of inquiring in advance, and when they inquire about it, they will be picked up as soon as the task is released.
Lawson was suddenly startled by the face of the lion people, but it was not the first day he had crossed, and he had seen beautiful elves before, so he was only slightly stunned and came back to his senses: "Oh, I'm sorry, I'm not here to post a mission, but to take a mission!" ”
Hearing that the task was not issued, several people around him also showed disappointment, and one of the bearded men said disdainfully: "Little guy, you are not a war officer, what are you doing to make a fuss, and you still take the task?" I'm afraid you won't be able to complete the lowest tasks! Let's go home and feed! ”
"Hahaha!" The beard's words immediately caused the people around him to burst into laughter.
In the face of ridicule, Rosen's expression was a little gloomy, and he almost couldn't help but pass by with an instantaneous ice pick, although he didn't make a move, but there was an obviously angry expression on his face, how could the young man not be angry.
