Chapter Twenty-Six: Hostage Again

Using the earth-based magic "Stun Strike" again to knock the two soldiers down, Dora panicked and pushed open the door behind the two soldiers.

As soon as the door opened, the lich froze.

Inside the door was a room, and in front of the fireplace of the room, beside the burning fire, the young man in a heavy cotton robe with a sickly pale face, holding a book in his hand, who else could it be, not the lord of this castle, the lord of Hammondal?

I didn't expect that I would escape to this hateful lord's room by mistake.

Although it was late at night, Jian Chen didn't sleep, he was worrying about the horses these days.

The strength of cavalry in the era of cold weapons is self-evident, and the champion knight of the heavy cavalry of the Erathia Human Empire is a powerful class of troops on the continent.

Although it is not very useful against air units, on the ground, the cavalry is invincible and powerful with its powerful attack power and mobility.

But because of this, no matter what country it is, war horses are an important resource of the country, and it is not easy to buy, and ordinary horses on the market can be used as mounts, and if you want to ride on the battlefield, it is difficult to say a word.

Without a period of training and recuperation, ordinary horses can't go to the battlefield at all, and no one under the lord knows how to raise war horses, not even a person like the inn owner Christy who deals with horses all year round.

For this matter, the lord has been suffering from insomnia a little lately.

Tonight, the lord, who couldn't sleep, simply got up and grabbed the magic book to study, but suddenly heard a noise outside.

It seems to be haunted again, and I don't know if Pete and Polly caught the ghost.

Chen Jian thought like this, and was about to ask someone to check what was going on, but he heard the sound of soldiers shouting and the sound of people falling to the ground outside the door of the room.

Then, the door to the room was pushed open, and a man entered.

If this guy in front of him can be called a human being.

Although the lord has seen a lot of horror movies before, when a strange guy who looks like a zombie that comes out of Resident Evil is not like a zombie and a skeleton is not like a skeleton appears in front of him so really, the lord is still so frightened that he almost drops the book in his hand to the ground.

Rao is Chen Jian is extremely bold, and at this time he is also speechless and at a loss.

"My lord, I didn't expect us to meet under such circumstances, it's a great honor! Dora the Lich from Diya salutes you! ”

Seeing that she could no longer hide her identity, Dora was also single, directly reported her name, closed the door of the room, and walked generously in front of the lord, bowing down and performing a noble etiquette.

He already knew that this lord had been seriously injured and was still recuperating from his injuries, so he was no threat to himself.

After a long time, Jian Chen came back from his panic, and looked at the ugly face of the lich, and couldn't help but feel sick.

"It seems that my appearance makes you feel uncomfortable, my lord, but there is no way to do it, if you want to get eternal life, you must pay a certain price, and this is only one of them!" Seeing Jian Chen's uncomfortable appearance, Dora smiled and disagreed, "Maybe you don't believe it, but I was much more handsome than you back then!" ”

"Lich? Eternal life? Jian Chen finally understood, the guy in front of him who was not a ghost or a ghost was a kind of legendary undead creature.

Thinking of this, Jian Chen was not afraid, there were many undead creatures in this world, and they also had their own country, and they were an intelligent race like elves.

To say that Chen Jian has seen a lot of strange creatures, he has also seen monsters that are more disgusting and ugly than the lich, but the recent haunting of the castle has caused a lot of uproar, which has made the lord who was already uneasy in his heart startled.

After calming down, Jian Chen also smiled: "I don't know if the Lich Lord is here, what are you doing?" Do necromancers like to visit people in the dead of night? Deya's customs are also very strange! ”

"Of course I'm here for something, my lord." Saying that, Dora turned around, came behind Jian Chen, and pinched Jian Chen's neck with his thin hands like skeletons, "I'm here for something." ”

It occurred to the lich that what he hadn't found for so long had probably been discovered and hidden by this damn human lord.

"What's that?" Feeling the chill coming from the other party's hand, Jian Chen couldn't help but get goosebumps.

"Terrence Rockwin, the former great leader of our people, accidentally left behind a treasure in Hammondal!" Dora said word by word, and smiled coldly, "I wonder if Lord Lord can tell me where you have hidden the things?" ”

Terrence Rockwin? The necromancer who nearly killed the Hammondales? Did he have any treasures left in this castle?

The lord felt a little funny, even if there was, it was taken away by so many lords before, where was it his turn to find out about this unlucky guy.

"Lich, are you mistaken, I've only been here to take over as lord for less than a few months, and besides, I haven't heard of any Terrence Rockven treasures at all, and even if there were, I think I took them away from my predecessor Markham, let's be honest, this damn old guy didn't leave me even a single gold coin, how could he leave me any treasures?"

Chen Jian is telling the truth, but generally speaking, the truth is hard to believe.

The lich Dora obviously didn't believe it, he lifted Jian Chen up from the recliner and said angrily: "Don't pretend to be stupid for me, tell me quickly, where is the thing?" ”

Jian Chen smiled bitterly and said, "Lord Lich, I don't even know what you're looking for, how can I know where it is?" ”

At this time, there was another noise outside the door, and Pete and the soldiers had searched outside the lord's room and found the two soldiers lying on the ground.

"Your Lord! Are you alright? Pete was so shocked that he slammed open the door of the room and swarmed in with a group of soldiers.

"Don't move! Whoever dares to touch me will kill him! The lich was nervous for a while, hurriedly blocked Jian Chen in front of him, and shouted at everyone, "If you don't want your lord to die, just quit obediently!" Fast! Exit and go! ”

In this situation, the lord could only smile bitterly, it seemed that this was the second time he had been held hostage, and his character was really not good, he waved his hand, and he motioned for everyone to leave: "I'm fine, you guys should retreat first!" I've got something to talk to Lord Lich! ”

"Count you as acquaintances!" The lich grinned at the lord's cooperation.

Pete looked angry, but he had to order someone to retreat, but he himself stayed in the room and did not move.

"You go out too!" The lich was very jealous of this master of the bow and arrow, and when he saw that he did not move, he shouted again.

Pete stared at the lich indignantly and muttered, "Damn evil creatures! If you dare to cause any harm to your lordship, I swear I'll tear you to pieces! ”

With that, the fire-eyed half-elf slowly walked out of the room backwards.

Seeing that everyone had exited the room, Dora the Lich finally breathed a sigh of relief, and he smiled sadly and said to Jian Chen, "Your subordinates are very loyal!" ”

Jian Chen smiled bitterly again: "Lord Lich, what do you want, if you still want to ask me where something is hidden, then you should kill me, I really don't understand what you are talking about!" ”

After speaking, Jian Chen closed his eyes, looking like a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water.

Now the lich was a little unsure, and he said suspiciously, "You really don't know? ”

Jian Chen shook his head.

"Then do you know any hidden tunnels in the castle?" The Lich is still a little unwilling.

"Haven't heard of it!"

Jian Chen's simple answer made the lich very annoyed: "You are still not the master here, why don't you know anything!" ”

"I've already told you, it's not been long since I took over this castle." Chen Jian was also very helpless about the lich's attachment, "Besides, if someone else knows that there is a treasure here, do you say he will leave it alone?" ”

This made Dora the Lich stunned for a while.

Yes, it has been more than a hundred years since Terrence Rockwin left this castle, maybe something has really been discovered and taken away by some people a long time ago, and he discovered this secret from ancient documents at that time, and it is difficult to guarantee that others will not find out, so he proposed to the higher-ups to find the treasure and volunteered to go out in person, and there was a possibility of failure from the beginning?

After thinking about all this, the lich Dora couldn't help but be stupid, what can I do, if the thing is really not here, even if I return to Diya, the end will definitely be extremely bleak.

"Lord Lich, I don't think it's better for you to let me go, let's treat it as if this didn't happen, and in the future, you leave yours, I'll do mine, and everyone has nothing to do with each other, isn't it great?"

Seeing the lich grabbing him in a stupid daze, Jian Chen couldn't help but whisper that being held in his hand for so long, the lord was no longer ordinarily uncomfortable.

"I can also pay you a ransom, I know that noble prisoners of war can redeem themselves from the enemy with money, and I am also your prisoner of war, how many gold coins do you want? As long as it's not too much, I think I'll be able to pay for it! ”

Seeing that the lich still didn't speak, Jian Chen hurriedly threw out another condition.

At this time, a cold female voice outside the door said: "This condition is good, dirty undead, you better agree to this condition, and then get out of Hammondale, otherwise, I will make you regret coming to this place!" ”

With this voice, the lord's personal magic advisor, Ash Temple, entered the room, and with her, Pete, the half-elven archer.

Seeing the appearance of the sorceress, who had beaten her and was seriously wounded, the lich was taken aback and cried out in horror: "Get out! You get out! If you don't go out again, I'll kill him!" ”

"You'd better try it and see if I'm afraid you'll kill him!" The female magician smiled coldly, and there was a sign of magic condensing in her raised hand, "If his life is not in danger, I don't want to make a move!" ”

These words not only froze the lich, but also made the roots of the teeth of the half-elf and the lord itch at the same time.

This is the second time that this sorceress has disregarded the life of the lord in this way.

The lord, who was about to say something, simply closed his mouth and stared at his magic advisor with hatred, with a look on his face that he wanted you to look good afterwards.

The female magician didn't care, but the speed of condensing the magic elements in her hands was getting faster and faster.

The half-elf's bow was already in his hand, and although he didn't want to take any risks, the situation seemed to be on the verge of breaking out at this time, and if the female magician really made a desperate move, he could only do his best to protect the lord from harm.

Seeing that the situation began to become out of his control, the lich panicked, and hurriedly blocked the Chen Jian in his hand in front of him, shouting, "You...... Don't mess around! Something to say...... There's something to say! ”

"Then tell me what happened to Terrence Rockwin's lost treasure?" The voice of the sorceress sounded coldly again like an eternal iceberg.

In her hands, a spell has been formed, the fire magic "Thunderbolt Flame".

The lich stared at the magical fireball with wide eyes in horror, and his heart was filled with despair.

He didn't hear the sorceress chanting the incantation.

She's silently magical!

Silent magic that only a genius magician who has trained hard for a long time can do!

Even in a place where there are many magicians in Diya, there are very few magicians who can do silent magic.

And this young sorceress can do it, what kind of monster is she?
