Thunderspear is now in a precarious situation.

Because the pharmacist's guild, which is the pillar industry of the town, is at risk of going out of business.

"Blame the damn orcs!"

A female apothecary's fingers were stained with black marks, which were the result of years of potion preparation, and black marks were drawn as they flew through the air, "If it weren't for them, we wouldn't be in this situation!" ”

Many of those present were silent, acquiescing to the female pharmacist's statement.

"I remember that there were bandits here a few months ago, didn't the Duchy of Senna have any official response to this?"

Link asked curiously.

In front of him, there was a cup of blue thick tea soup, which was made of the leaves of the herb Blue Spear Grass, and the tea was slightly numb and sweet, which was a very good herbal tea.

"How?"

Someone heard Link's question, and blurted out, full of resentment, "The Duchy was ruthlessly attacked by the orcs this time, attracting other races to peep at it, and the riots caused on the border will not allow the troops stationed there to come back, and more troops have to be transferred from the interior to station!" ”

When the other party said that, Link understood.

The main reason why the Duchy of Senna was able to establish itself was because it was located in the outermost part of the Radiant Empire, and it confronted many foreign races, which reduced a lot of trouble for the empire.

After the orcs inflicted such serious damage on the Duchy of Senna, the other alien races also became unstable, and there were many troubles on the border. In order to ensure the security of the border, the Duchy of Seine not only could not send troops from the border back, but also had to send more troops from the interior to the border.

Therefore, it is almost impossible to expect the people in the royal court to solve the matter here.

They still have to have a certain strength to defend the royal court, and they can't all be sent out.

The number of these bandits was so large that it naturally caused the aristocrats to be bored, so some nobles connected with their private armies and prepared to sweep them.

As a result, this terrible underground werewolf suddenly appeared, causing chaos.

The private armies of the various nobles immediately gathered, and all rushed to the edge of the werewolf forest, forming a strict defense system, lest they rush out, which will directly lead to chaos.

As a result, the number of bandits in the vicinity continued unabated, and people still lived in such a painful situation.

"Now there are more and more bandits outside, and there are more and more people who can't survive after being robbed by them, some of them go to other places to beg for a living, and some simply become bandits and rob other people."

Mrs. Smith sighed, "Under this vicious circle, I suspect that it won't be long before there will be no normal people here." ”

"Don't be so pessimistic, ma'am." Link felt that it was not good to laugh at this time, so he also pulled the corners of his mouth to reveal a heavy expression, "The nobles will not allow such a thing to happen, if there are only bandits in the territory, they will not be nobles, there will definitely be a way." ”

Mrs. Smith still showed a sad expression and shook her head: "No, if the underground werewolves who rushed out of the werewolf forest broke through the blockade outside, it would be a disaster even more terrible than bandits." ”

Link touched his nose, it seemed that the outcome of the matter had to fall on the werewolf underground.

Kill this group of underground werewolves, and the plight of the Duchy of Seine will probably be over.

After talking for a while, Link stood up and prepared to take his leave.

Mrs. Smith stood up to see him off, and the others left amid mutual farewells.

After waiting for everyone else to leave, Link grabbed Mrs. Smith, frowned and asked, "Madam, I had a question that I had been holding in my heart for a long time just now, because there were people I had to ask, and now that they are gone, I just want to ask you one question, where did Mr. Smith go?" ”

"Didn't you all prepare to leave the Duchy of Seine? Why is it suddenly here? ”

Link didn't understand Mrs. Smith, so wasn't he worried about the nobleman hiding behind the scenes to deal with them?

"No, he's gone, and the nobleman won't come to us anymore."

Mrs. Smith looked sad, and beside him, Link's face suddenly darkened.

"Mr. Smith was killed?"

Link took a deep breath, "Who did that?" ”

He decided that if he knew who did it, he would definitely avenge him!

"No, not dead yet."

Mrs. Smith gave a wry smile, "They threatened him with my safety and asked him to do something for them and explore the Werewolf Forest. Don't look at me I'm still in this town, but I'm being guarded and no one is allowed to take me away. ”

"And I can't go either, once I'm gone, they'll kill him."

Link couldn't help but scold, it turned out to be a two-way insurance, using one side to contain the other, so that both sides could be in their own hands.

He believed that there were people on the other side in Thunderspear Town, who had been watching Mrs. Smith.

It's just that the other party gave Mrs. Smith so much freedom, and it cost him a lot to come to Mr. Smith's side - or the other party can bring him a lot of benefits.

"Really...... Disgusting guy. Link closed his eyes and pondered for a second, then said to Mrs. Smith, "Don't worry, I'll help you with this, and if you have any information about those guys, you can give me some." ”

"Nope." Mrs. Smith shook her head, "I still don't know who the other party is, the people who captured our husband and wife at that time were very strange, and didn't say a word to us, and then a housekeeper-like person separated us and forced us to agree to their demands." ”

Enter the werewolf forest to find something special, but now that the underground werewolves have appeared, I don't know what the situation inside is, and whether Mr. Smith still exists, there is a question mark.

But even so, Mrs. Smith is still alive and well, and it seems that the other party's confidence in Mr. Smith is really great.

It is believed that Mr. Smith will definitely come back alive, and that he will continue to serve the nobleman because of Mrs. Smith.

"I'll help you investigate, and the Werewolf Forest is also one of my targets."

Link smiled and patted Mrs. Smith and gave his promise.

It was only before he could get into the carriage that a bell suddenly rang in the center of the town, and then there was a rush all around, many townspeople rushed frantically towards their homes, and many more people wore rudimentary protective gear and rushed outside with weapons.

"What's going on?"

Link looked around in surprise, and someone stopped and explained to Link, "Get ready for battle, another bandit wants to attack the town!" ”

"Attacking the town?"

Link was stunned for a moment, although he raised his head and laughed, "It's funny." (To be continued.) )
