Chapter 345: It's a little more plain than I imagined (New Year's Update)
A few days later, the cave was secret.
Crackling torches brought the light of fire, and in the surprisingly wide passage of the cavern, a group of skeleton soldiers was kicking in a phalanx formation.
After the upgrade of the graveyard, the quality of the skeleton soldiers has also improved, and with their own armor and weapons, the skeleton soldiers will finally no longer make jokes about pulling out their left hand as a swordman.
That said, but when I ordered the skeleton soldiers to prepare the torches before entering the cave, one of the skeletons took their ribs off and lit them as soon as possible......
Well, we have to be considerate of them, after all, their brains have rotted out long ago.
I say, you bard are really versatile. Walking behind the skeleton that opened the road, Lucario had a torch in one hand and a long sword on the hilt of his waist in the other, but judging by his expression, as if he was going out on an outing, I really couldn't tell if his vigilant gesture really had any meaning.
What do you mean by that? It was boring on the way, so I didn't respond quickly.
Look at it, it can not only instantaneously spell all kinds of elemental magic, but also have the ability to summon undead creatures, especially when it feels like a bottomless pit. Lucario paused unnaturally at this point, frowned, and said, "Well, it seems to be quite ordinary.
It's pretty ordinary, yes. I shrugged my shoulders, thinking that Lucario was comparing me to the elite of the Brave School.
It's hard to get compliments from the same sex, so I don't feel much regret even if Lucario finally gives a twist. What's more, my strongest point now is not magic, but the absolute evasion and basic attack true damage given by the law.
The brief conversation came to an end here, and after a long journey of winding forward, a strange young man who had been silent between me and Lucario suddenly said at the fork in the road: Lord Xu Mo, Lord Robin, we are almost close to the seal now.
Hearing the young man's name, Lucario's face suddenly wrinkled, he used the pseudonym Robin the Wonder Boy during the siege of Timleath, so when Lucario became famous in Timles City, Lord Robin became the honorific title of the residents here.
It's still quite infuriating to say. Based on the blood of the brave. Every time he came to a new area, Lucario's activity would instantly break through the sky, and as a result of his efforts to dig up hidden events in the city, the bandit and illegal forces in Tim Les were completely turned back and forth by him, and Lucario's reputation among the inhabitants increased from then on.
I don't know where the rumor came from, and there are rumors that I was going to slaughter Timelet City when I first conquered it. Thanks to Lord Robin, who did not want to see the people suffer, he persuaded him bitterly. I was reluctant to give up this thought.
In Timles, you don't know the New City Lord. But I must not know the benevolent Lord Robin—I remember the first thing I did when I heard this gossip was to turn around and beat Lucario hard.
You say it's jealousy?
Sorry, I don't really care that much about the outside reputation. Otherwise, I wouldn't have thrown all the participating students into the street when the college decided on the list of visiting groups, and the reason why I beat Lucario was actually because he said that this thing was obviously doing good deeds and forgetting that he was now in a state of disguise, and a person who had to hide his true identity made such a high-profile for no reason, obviously begging for two words.
Forget it, for the time being, regardless of this legendary brave heir who has an unnoticeable disease that will die, let's explain the current general situation first.
First of all, this strange young man, please take a look at the rabbit ears on his head and his face, yes, the real identity of this strange man is the father of Fino who cheated to death before, after learning the news of Rest's disappearance, this young man ended his diving life as I guessed earlier, and surfaced to inherit the position of lord who was vacant because of Rest's steaming.
And in a friendly visit of Cyno afterwards, Fino's father happily and happily abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, and decided to leave the Rococona tribe to join the great Demon King City, and at the same time gave Fino and Legrit the two goodwill envoys on the spot, and since then they have been responsible for various exchanges with the Demon King City.
Yes, because he is a goodwill ambassador, it is quite reasonable and logical to stay in Demon King City for a long time in the future.
By the way, in order to show that the relationship between the two parties is friendly, Daddy Fino did not hesitate to agree to my request to visit the Sealed Land of the Unknown Monster after I asked, which is why Lucario and I are on this trip to the cave.
As for why only Lucario was with him, the reason is that when he infiltrated the lord's mansion, Lucario also heard the information that the unknown monster was still there, and instead of letting him quietly investigate the location of the seal by himself, it would be better for me to catch him and act together, so it would be relatively easy to stop the accident.
The brave man's hands are world-famous, and many accidents on the way to the adventure are often caused by the brave man who has nothing to do and pressed some mechanism or touched some special conditions, so it is better to bring this unstable element with you to make people feel at ease.
The Sealed Place is here. Walking to a stone wall, Fino's father stopped and pressed his palm against the wall for a while, then found the location of the mechanism and pressed it.
Kasha, a heavy voice came out, and when the stone wall was moved from left to right, an empty flat room suddenly appeared in front of it, and the first few lightly armed soldiers who were squatting inside saw someone coming, and their first action was to put their hands on their weapons.
How can there be undead?!
Damn, could it be an enemy attack?
Meet the enemy as you did during the drill, Xiongzi, go out of the dark passage and inform the lord!
The skeleton soldiers, who I had arranged as a bodyguard, caused a commotion among the soldiers in the cave without accident, but unlike the people I had seen at Lester Castle. The soldiers here drew their weapons and lined up as soon as the initial shock had passed, and a few of them were so quick that they had even engaged the skeletons at the front of the group.
For fear that the conflict would intensify, Fino's father, who had been in the center of the team, pushed away the skeleton soldiers in front of him, and squeezed to the front to stop a few orc soldiers in the cave: Don't be nervous, it's me.
The orc soldiers with spears saw the figure of Fino's father, and after hesitating for a while, they finally put away their guns and stood up, and gave a military salute to Fino's father with one hand.
An impending conflict has passed, and even from time to time I can still detect the wary gaze of the orc soldiers.
Since there was no real fight, I have no way of judging the true combat strength of these orc soldiers, but what I can say for sure is that these soldiers are undoubtedly superior to the guards around Rest.
Judging from the reactions, the soldiers here, without exception, seem to know that Fino's father was just cheating to death. This is the analysis. I can't help but draw an interesting conclusion.
Compared to becoming the lord's personal guard, the truly elite soldiers actually stay in this secret cave to guard the seal, and it can also be seen from this side that the Fino family attaches great importance to the seal of unknown monsters.
Speaking of Lester, this part is still very commendable, although it is said that it is constantly calculated. But what he really wanted was to ensure the continuation of the family legacy. Judging from the difference between the soldiers guarding the seal and the suzhì of the lord's personal guard. This old man can be said to put the important Cheng Cheng of the family above his own safety, but it is a pity that his small methods are too disgusting, otherwise he would not end up like this.
Compare that to it. Although Fino's father is also a good head of the family, he does not have the consciousness of sacrificing a qiē for the family like Rest, otherwise he would not choose to trade in order to protect Fino and take me and Lucario to the sealed place of this unknown monster.
Hawkers, of course, in fact, even if Fino's dad refuses, I won't really do anything about Fino, just like I used to envision, the great thing is to go out and get a black stocking pullover, and then it's Batman's turn to show off his talents.
As if he didn't feel the hostile gaze of the orc soldiers, Lucario followed Fino's father out of the protective circle formed by the skeleton soldiers, put his palm to his eyebrows and looked left and right, and then did not forget to express his feelings to others: this place is more modest than I expected.
I complained angrily: Of course, this place was originally only opened up to seal monsters, and it would be strange if it was really built as a resort.
My lord, how does he know the secrets of our place?!
Damn, I've read him in the newspapers, is this really the Apostle of Darkness who came to free this beast?
No, you see, Lord Robin is right next to him, and with Lord Robin's kind character, he will definitely not let him do such nonsense.
Lucario's hateful lines didn't elicit much reaction from the orc soldiers, but as soon as I opened my mouth, the soldiers blew up, and it seems that Fino's father's prestige among this group of soldiers is really not very good, otherwise people wouldn't say anything to me in front of the lord like this.
Ahem, please pay attention to me here. Now that his sense of self-existence has been suppressed, Fino's father is unwilling to be lonely, and his dry cough attracted everyone's attention, and he opened his mouth to introduce: I believe everyone knows very well about the fall of Timerles, the garrison of the tribal country has retreated, but even so, our side still shoulders the important responsibility of guarding the seal, although it is said that the seal will not be completely loosened in two years, but in order to prevent it from happening, I decided to establish an alliance with the new city lord of Timerles, that is, the forces of Lord Xu Mo.
The orc soldiers exchanged glances, and although some of them still had doubts on their faces, they finally nodded in acceptance of Fino's father's statement. (To be continued!)
