Chapter 7: The Killer

"Young man, the old man looks at your bones, you are a magic genius like no other, the old man has a magic book - Falling Stars, and when he sees that he is destined for you, he will sell it to you for 100 gold coins!"

An old man covered in dirt and tattered clothes like a beggar stopped in front of Lin Nan and Tu Shan Yueyue, with messy silver hair and white beard, clutching a tattered pamphlet in his hand, with four words printed on the cover "Fallen Stars", and those pointed ears indicated his race.

"Where did you come from, get out of here, don't get in the way of this princess."

Tu Shan Yueyue shouted, and was about to push the old beggar away, but unexpectedly, Lin Nan suddenly stepped out to stop him.

"Old gentleman, I bought this magician, give it, this is 100 gold coins, you can take it."

Lin Nan smiled slightly, took out his money bag from his pocket and handed it to the old beggar, which contained exactly a hundred gold coins.

"Lin Nan, are you crazy? How could this broken book be worth 100 gold coins? ”

Tu Shan Yueyue's face was puzzled, as long as he wasn't a fool, he could see that this old man was a liar, right?

"Thank you for your patronage, you have this magic book."

The old beggar handed the magic book to Lin Nan, grabbed the money bag in Lin Nan's hand, and immediately turned around to escape, for fear that Lin Nan would regret it, and said with a smile as he walked: "I made a lot of money, I met a fool today." ”

Tu Shan Yueyue naturally wouldn't let go of this old beggar easily, and her figure flashed, stopping the old beggar who had just run a few steps.

"Old liar, hand over the gold coins."

Tu Shan Yueyue grabbed the old man's collar and lifted the old man up directly.

"What do you want to do? This hand-to-hand delivery deal, do you still want to regret it? The old man cried out in his arms.

"I..." Tu Shan Yueyue couldn't find a reason to refute for a while.

"Xiao Yueyue, let him go." Lin Nan shouted at Tu Shan Yueyue.

"But this old liar..." Tu Shan Yueyue was even more incomprehensible, and she didn't understand why Lin Nan wanted her to let this old man go.

"I have a sense of proportion, let him go." Lin Nan repeated it again, and the meaning couldn't be clearer.

Although Tu Shan Yueyue felt wronged, she didn't dare not listen to Lin Nan's words, so she could only loosen the old man's collar and put the old man down.

"Senior Geralf, my friend was rude just now, please forgive me."

Lin Nan didn't know when he had already walked up, clasped his hands into fists, bowed slightly, and made a series very respectfully.

"Who are you calling? The old man didn't know the person you were talking about, so he left first. ”

Hearing Lin Nan shout this name, the old man obviously hesitated for a second, his eyes rolled, and he wanted to escape after crossing Tu Shan Yueyue.

"I didn't expect that the top ten black mages of the elf clan were famous back then, but now they have become a cowardly mouse generation who doesn't even dare to admit their names."

Lin Nan suddenly shouted loudly, and the old man was stunned on the spot and did not continue to escape.

"Senior, do you have to ask me to call out your full name on this street?"

Lin Nan knew Geralf's weakness, and he made himself look like a beggar, hiding incognito in a border town like the Elven Kingdom, in order not to be found by the people of the light magic faction.

"Come with me."

The old man did not run away, put the money bag in his arms, and left the street with Lin Nan and the others.

After passing through several alleys in a row, Geralf took Lin Nan and the others to his residence, only to see a dilapidated stone house standing on the cliff by the sea, which was his own magic research institute.

Geralph, who was leading the way in front, suddenly stopped, turned around directly, and threw out a black energy ball with his backhand, and the energy ball flew straight towards Lin Nan.

Suddenly, he was caught off guard, and he couldn't react at all, as soon as Tu Shan Yueyue raised his head, the energy ball had already arrived in front of Lin Nan.

Lin Nan always had an indifferent smile on his face, his head twisted slightly, and the ball of energy grazed his cheek and landed on a boulder behind him.

There was a loud bang, and the boulder was blown to pieces by the black energy ball, leaving only a deep pit on the ground.

"Dead old man, what do you want to do?" Tu Shan Yueyue shouted with cold eyes.

"Abandon chanting, magic is instantaneous, I didn't expect that after so many years, Geralf's predecessor is still good." Lin Nannan was not angry, but applauded.

"It's been a long time since anyone called this name, how did you find the old man?"

Geraff didn't move again, one hand stroked his messy beard, and asked softly.

"You don't need to know this, as for my intention, I will say straight to the point, I hope that my predecessors can serve as our military advisors, give me advice, participate in the grand event with us, build immortal achievements, and become immortal causes."

Lin Nan didn't say superfluous nonsense, and directly stated his purpose.

"Hmph, what a big breath, a mere human race, dare to boast of such a Haikou?"

Geraff revealed Lin Nan's identity with one word, which made Lin Nan stunned for a few seconds, although he didn't know how Geraff saw it, but this alone was enough to prove that this Geraff was by no means a wasted person.

"Senior, if I don't even have this confidence, how dare I come to work for you? It's better for the seniors to listen to the conditions I offer first, and then it's not too late to make a decision. ”

"Oh? Let's talk about it. ”

"You've spent your life researching the Dark Arts, but the lack of funding and aging equipment slowed down or even halted the research, and I can provide you with a huge fortune to help you update your equipment and materials, and in the future provide you with a research institute that no one will disturb for you to study the Dark Arts to your heart's content."

"The black magic faction has been expelled, and the black magic is also listed as a forbidden art in the elven country, your research results are not only not recognized by the world, but also bear the infamy of the ages, if you are willing to wait, when my human race is revived, I will help you destroy the light magic faction, and return the name of black magic orthodoxy, this is the second."

Lin Nan observed Geralf's expression and eye changes as he spoke, but it was a pity that Geralf hid too deeply, and after saying so much, Geralf was still the same unmoved as before.

"This is the condition I offered, whether my predecessors galloped the world with me, or stayed in this place and died alone, I hope you will not let me down."

Lin Nan was a little frustrated, he had almost given up, and the twisted melon would not be sweet.

"With such tempting conditions, the old man has no reason not to agree." Geralf said suddenly.

"Do you really want to?" Lin Nan couldn't believe his ears, and thought he had heard it wrong.

"I am willing to do the work of dogs and horses." Geralf clenched his hands into fists and bowed slightly towards Lin Nan.

Lin Nan was so excited that he didn't know what to say, and hurriedly reached out to support Geralf, but at this moment, the sky suddenly darkened.

Patches of black spots appeared on the ground, and skeleton soldiers pieced out of white bones crawled out of the ground, armed with bone knives and guns, about fifty or sixty skeleton soldiers, surrounding Lin Nan and the others.

"It's... The Oni Clan's Spiritualism. ”

Lin Nan frowned, he had a lot of information about the twelve alien races stored in his mind, and he was proficient in the forbidden art of the ghost clan, so he recognized this soul conjuring technique at a glance.

The ghost clan is the most mysterious of the twelve alien races, it is rumored that they were born in the deepest part of the earth, can understand yin and yang, know life and death, they have many unknown terrifying abilities, so that the five great powers are deeply jealous, and even fearful.

One day, the ghost clan was surrounded and suppressed by the combined forces of the world government, and finally wiped out the clan, and the end was not much better than that of the human race, so the ghost clan was extremely rare, and this soul conjuring technique can only be performed by those who have the blood of the ghost clan.

Whoosh, a cold flicker, flew towards Geralf's face, it was a dagger.

Lin Nan's figure flashed in front of Geralf, and the bone stick behind him arrived in his hand at some point, and he swept it head-on, and the dagger hit the bone and was bounced away.

A black shadow quietly appeared, wearing a hat, the black gauze placed under the hat completely covered its true face, wearing a black robe, the robe system is chic, similar to the ancient style of the robe, the black coat is dotted with scattered blood, look carefully, it is a snowflake of different shapes, but these snowflakes are not white, but bright blood red.

"Who's coming? Register your name. ”

Lin Nan pointed to the mysterious black shadow that appeared not far away and shouted.

"If the old man guessed correctly, he should be the killer invited by the Elf King." Geralf said softly.
