Chapter 118: Professional Secret Agent (3rd Update)
Serena walked almost alone from outside the forest to a nearby town.
On the way, I was lucky, and I came across a small caravan transporting goods there, and with a little kind words, she got a ride.
This place, called Shishui Town, was the center of more than a dozen nearby villages and the domain of a nobleman.
The commercial trade is not prosperous, relying on some adventurers to take on tasks to obtain materials in the surrounding treacherous environment, and then sell them to some trading houses in the center of the town, and a little rudimentary goods to buy and sell to earn taxes, relying on a commercial fleet that only has one round for a dozen days to replenish some of the town's necessities.
So Serena was lucky, she happened to run into this convoy and walked into the town without the slightest obstacle.
The convoy arrived in the town to deliver the goods, and some villagers from other villages gradually gathered here to buy the necessities they needed.
Salt, sugar, spices, linen cloth, etc., and the caravan also bought enough spell materials produced nearby, such as calming flowers and solar plants, loaded the cart, and prepared to leave the next day.
Serena was in such an environment that she walked out into the town's square and began to solicit guests for her own magic show.
The unique magic show attracted a lot of onlookers, and even a few family members who seemed to be nobles in the town took a look with great interest, ready to invite this rare magician to perform in a more intimate place in their free time.
Although the town is relatively quiet, it is not poor, the nobles who govern it here are very good, and the people are also quite wealthy, and they have rewarded Serena with a lot of coins, and they went to the nearby grocery store to ask for an exchange in the evening, and there were more than ten Senna silver wolves.
Serena didn't go directly to inquire about any news, but like a magician who traveled the world, after getting money through the performance, she went to the nearby tavern to have a drink and a bite to eat, and then returned to the hotel she had set up to rest.
But that doesn't mean Serena doesn't get anything.
During the performance, she saw two men in military uniforms passing by, and through the muttering of the people next to her, she knew that the other party was from the Knights of the Feathered Eagle.
Then, in the middle of the show, in the name of creating new material, I asked what interesting things were going on nearby, and I got Ellen? Arrosh was defeated for the second time, and the Knights of the Feathered Eagle visited his home.
Then there is the trivial matter of intrigue between the nobles, Serena performed perfectly, she didn't care about the previous affairs of Ellen, but was particularly interested in the private affairs between the nobles, and talked a lot with people, swearing that there was a chance to make an adaptation to form an interesting drama.
Of course, these are polite words, and no one wants to take them seriously.
But in such conversations, all kinds of information are constantly gathered, screened, and then discerned from false, and finally there is only one sentence of useful information left.
"The vanguard of the Feathered Eagle Knights has arrived, living in the homes of various nobles in the vicinity, and they were ready to dispatch the Elemental Tower two days ago, and later discovered Ellen? Arosh went on a second expedition, so he stood still until he found Ellen? Arosh retreated, so he withheld himself and waited for reinforcements from the rear. ”
This is what Serena finally reported to Link, and it made him understand how dangerous the situation was.
Link has to thank Ellen? Arosh's attack again, if it weren't for him, the Knights of the Feathered Eagle might have reached their own tower at this moment.
But is it because of this Ellen? Arrosh, so that the next arrival of the Feathered Eagle Knights, the combat power will be increased a lot.
Sensing that it would be dangerous for Serena to be alone in an enemy town, Link offered to level her up and buy a set of equipment to strengthen her.
But Serena directly rejected Link: "A magician who doesn't have much strength is a real magician, and if someone finds out that I have great power, it will attract suspicion." ”
Serena's words made a lot of sense, and Link was silent for a while, agreeing with her.
The Elemental Tower is a little deserted.
Dilla and Aisling left the Elemental Tower and headed to the entrance to the forest, where they began to set up their positions.
Alice doesn't have this ability, and like the twins, she can only look at him with innocent eyes when she talks about this ability.
However, if you have three positions, you can still do it with a few lucky opponents.
It's just a pity that the position can only be effective for one person, and having other people will not only not improve their combat power, but will lead to damage to their strength because of their shrinking.
Therefore, the three positions can only be guarded by three people, which is simply the worst news.
"It always feels like I've become the ultimate demon king, and the righteous knights have fought hard to defeat the monsters in their way and then kill me."
Link complained helplessly.
The twins immediately shouted excitedly: "Then it is up to us to kill this group of brave knights, true justice can only be achieved by strength!" ”
"That's right, that's right!" Alice also excitedly shouted, "Power is justice, force is truth, and power is words!" ”
"Alright, alright, you guys."
Link looked at them helplessly, and when he said something serious, he didn't know where to go.
The Elemental Tower itself has entered a virtuous cycle, with a large number of dwellings bringing in enough silver coins to maintain the upgrading and construction of buildings, and the Elemental Crystal Nuclei produced by the Elemental Pool every day are piled up and used uniformly in times of war.
The enhancement of runes has been put on the agenda by Link, and through the accumulation of this time, he has gradually gathered a lot of level 1 rune essences, and it is unrealistic for everyone to strengthen, and if you strengthen one person, there is no problem.
It's just that the selection is a little tangled, because this is the rune essence of the power attribute and the spell attribute, which can only be strengthened for the twins, after all, two people are also considered one person......
Link himself wanted to strengthen Aislyn and Avina, but after thinking about it, it would be better to strengthen the twins alone.
Powerful enough twins, with strong crushing ability, will naturally be able to bring more advantages.
Link is preparing for the coming war here, and another distant place is also discussing the affairs of this remote area.
"Ancient evils appeared? Another tower in the Forest of Death? A strange human with a lot of ears, probably from a laboratory in that ancient mage tower? ”
An old man with pale hair but shone spirits looked at the disciple standing in front of him, and couldn't help but laugh: "Are you talking about the Death Tower recorded in the library?" Those are all deceptive nonsense, and you still believe them one by one, and go there to find out. ”
Catherine kept shaking her head: "No, teacher, that woman really has long ears, and she is not a normal human at first glance." And she's tall, more than a head taller than me! ”
The old man continued to smile, looking at his proud disciple's anxious appearance, and after a long time, he said slowly: "If what you say is true, it is not an experimental creature, but a legendary elf!" ”
Legendary ...... Yes, elves?
