After changing into dry clothes and eating freshly made pastries with steaming heat, Liu Ling watched the rain outside through the window, listening to the butler introduce himself to the skeletons they saw. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"It's not too early, I'll go to the back garden first" After the housekeeper told Liu Ling the general situation, Liu Ling ate all the pastries at hand, wiped his mouth and slowly stood up.

"Then there's the mercenary." The housekeeper has always stood by Liu Ling's side, and after Liu Ling stood up at this time, he hurriedly handed Liu Ling a new umbrella he had brought before, and took another one placed by the door and led Liu Ling towards the back garden.

Although Liu Ling liked the feeling of being drenched in the rain very much, he was wearing the new clothes that the housekeeper had just given him, and he was embarrassed to go directly to the rain and get wet with this clothes, so he did not refuse the housekeeper's kindness and took the umbrella.

The bean-sized raindrops fell on the umbrella surface very rhythmically, and after touching the waterproof membrane on the umbrella surface, they quickly bounced off, like an eight or nine-year-old naughty child.

The housekeeper and Liu Ling walked in the rain one after the other with a gray umbrella, and the drainage system in the manor was not bad, even if it was so rainy, there was no particularly obvious water accumulation on the ground. So the shoes of the two were soaked by rain, and no water entered the shoes.

The back garden is usually used as a place for Finci, the owner of the manor, to take an after-dinner stroll, next to Finch's residence. Because Finch couldn't hear the noise, his residence and back garden were some distance away from the residences of the others on the estate.

And the housekeeper's place is next to the gate of the manor, so it is quite far from the housekeeper's place to the back garden, and the two of them walked in the rain for several minutes before seeing the back garden.

Usually the servants come to this neighborhood to slow down their breathing and slow down, for fear that they will inadvertently quarrel with Finch and lose their jobs. However, because Finch had taken the medicine that temporarily made him lose his hearing in the past few days, the housekeeper did not have this concern at this time, and led Liu Ling to the back garden generously.

Outside the back garden is a wooded area, separated by a fence in the middle. This was deliberately designed by Finch, and although he couldn't hear the noise, he still enjoyed listening to the wind blowing leaves, insects, and birds singing every day.

This small garden is full of flowers, most of which Liu Ling can't name. These delicate-looking flowers bloomed in the pouring rain, which had little effect on them, except for the occasional drop of petals.

In the middle of the garden is a small pavilion-like building, where Finch usually rests. Inside, there is a small table made of stone and several stone chairs.

At this time, it was already dusk, and it was not long before the skeleton appeared as the butler said. Liu Ling walked to the small pavilion, put down the umbrella, and after telling the housekeeper that he didn't need help, the housekeeper left very interestingly, leaving Liu Ling alone.

Sitting in the pavilion, Liu Ling stared at the raindrops that kept falling in front of him in a daze, he felt that this task should not be challenging, and it might not even be as good as the few first-grade mercenary tasks he had received before.

Destroying skeletons is just a piece of cake for him now, and as for the skeletons that the butler said will suddenly appear and disappear, Liu Ling doesn't care.

After all, those servants were just ordinary people, and even what they saw with their own eyes might not always be accurate. The skeletons were probably just some kind of illusion or summoned by some mage who was hiding nearby, but they didn't have the mental power to see it.

So Liu Ling didn't take the skeletons that were about to appear to heart, even if they were real skeletons, he could probably solve one with a catapult blade. What really needs to be paid attention to is whether there are other forces hidden behind those skeletons, and that is what Liu Ling needs to pay attention to.

The reason why he took on this mission was also because he thought that there might be some powerful power hidden behind those skeletons. In Liu Ling's conjecture, those skeletons were most likely summoned by a necromancer, and the purpose was probably to kill Finch to get his property.

At this time, it is likely that he let these skeletons appear in front of everyone on purpose, just to pave the way for his subsequent killing, and it is estimated that he will attack Finch in the near future.

Of course, this is just a possibility for Liu Ling to guess, and Liu Ling didn't dare to make a conclusion easily before he came into contact with those skeletons.

If there was really a necromancer behind these skeletons, Liu Ling felt that he had earned it by running so far to come here this time. Because after he fought with that necromancer last time, he found that he not only got the experience of killing necromancers, but also the experience of killing those summons, even if those summons were not killed by Liu Ling himself, but died after the necromancer lost control.

Killing a necromancer gives you a lot more experience than killing an ordinary mage. If he could meet a necromancer again this time, Liu Ling felt that he would be able to advance to the next level......

Liu Ling sat quietly in the pavilion and waited for the night to come......

An hour later, the rain still showed no signs of abating. Due to the rain, the moon did not rise after the sun set, and the night was much darker than usual.

It was indeed extremely quiet in this neighborhood, and Liu Ling couldn't hear anything other than the sound of the rain when he sat in the pavilion. It is easy to get sleepy by listening to only one monotonous sound for a long time, and even Liu Ling, who likes rainy days very much, closed his eyes involuntarily after listening to the sound of rain for such a long time.

Just when Liu Ling was about to fall asleep, suddenly a strange sound came from his ears. Although this sound was very small, it was very abrupt in the monotonous sound of rain, so Liu Ling found out the moment this strange sound appeared.

"It's finally here!"

Liu Ling was not surprised or overjoyed, he had been waiting for this for so long. At the same time as he heard this strange sound, he clenched the dagger in his hands and expanded his spiritual power in all directions.

But what Liu Ling didn't expect was that his spiritual power had obviously covered the entire garden, but he didn't sense anything except those flowers and some stones.

Impossible! Liu Ling obviously felt that the sound was coming from not far in front of him, but his spiritual power did not make any discovery.

Just now, because Liu Ling trusted his spiritual power too much, and felt that his eyes couldn't see much in the dark, he didn't open his eyes and directly scanned the surroundings with his spiritual power.

At this time, after not discovering any spiritual power, Liu Ling opened his eyes.

After opening his eyes, a miserable white skeleton appeared in front of Liu Ling's eyes......
