Chapter 31: The Black Castle
"It is said that she is a very beautiful female adventurer."
"Blonde, long legs?" Lin Li was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted again, in all Garros City, there was probably only one beautiful female adventurer he knew, Ina.
"Looks like that, what's wrong, girlfriend?"
"Kevin, you've been infected by Grean, such gossip...... What about her now? ”
"I asked her to wait in the reception room first, and I don't know if she ...... left."
"......" Lin Li knew too well the surnames of the father and daughter, if it wasn't for something that couldn't be solved, they would definitely not be able to come to the door, thinking of this, Lin Li was a little anxious, and hurriedly walked out of the grade certification hall, and while rushing to the reception room, he complained: "Why didn't you inform me earlier......"
"I want to inform you......" Kevin rolled his eyes: "As soon as you locked yourself in the room, the elder will speak, if anyone dares to disturb you, he will screw off someone's head, do you think I dare to come?" ”
"This old guy ......" Lin Li muttered a complaint, but his heart was slightly moved, Gray Ann, the old guy, was thoughtful, for fear that he would be disturbed at the critical moment of the breakthrough.
The two soon arrived outside the reception room, and as soon as Lin Li pushed the door open, he saw a pretty face crying with pear blossoms and rain.
"Fee...... Mr. Ferrey ......" The long-legged beauty's voice choked up, and she couldn't stop crying: "Please save my father......"
"Ina, don't get excited, say something slowly." Hearing the cry of the long-legged beauty, Lin Li's head really got big, and he hurriedly and carefully comforted: "Tell me first, what happened to Mr. McGrenelly?" ”
"Daddy he'...... Dad, he's about to die......" Ina cried with a pair of beautiful eyes red and swollen, and under Lin Li's continuous comfort, she could barely hold back the sadness in her heart and talked about what happened intermittently.
After separating at the gate of the Adventurer's Guild that day, with the scorpion tail thorn given by Lin Li, McGrenelly and his daughter completed the task smoothly, according to their usual habits, after completing a mission, they often rest for a while before taking over the other, but they don't know what happened that day, after handing in the task, McGrenelly insisted on going to the mission announcement office to take a look.
It's also a bit of a coincidence, as soon as the two father and daughter arrived at the mission announcement, a new batch of mission announcements came out.
One of the tasks is to find someone to search for an ancient castle in the Whispering Forest, and McGreeney chose this task at a glance, the Whispering Forest is simply a heaven and an underground compared to the Luoyue Mountain Range, and the most powerful demons there are only ten levels, and the number is pitiful, if it is not really lucky, you may not be able to bump into it in the Whispering Forest for two or three years.
The mission is also very simple, just find out the exact location of the castle.
The detailed map of the Whispering Forest, which is sold inside the Adventurer's Guild, is only ten gold coins, and the characteristics of the castle are also clearly described in the mission, it is a black castle that only appears after dusk, with these two clues, it is only a matter of time to complete the task, and the reward is as high as one hundred gold coins, which is much more cost-effective than hunting lion scorpions in the Luoyue Mountains.
So McGrenelly simply took over the task, and did not rest in Garros City that day, and after a little replenishment, he took Ina to the Whispering Forest.
As McGrenelly expected, the mission went fairly smoothly.
The father and daughter did not encounter any danger along the way, and it probably only took more than a week to find the ancient castle mentioned in the mission.
McGrenelly was so happy that he marked the location of the castle on the map and decided to return to Garros.
But at this time, the unexpected happened.
McGrenelly, who had just put the map in his backpack, suddenly collapsed without warning.
At that time, Ina was completely frightened......
The most terrifying thing is that McGrenelly does not have any wounds on his body, nor does it seem to have been attacked by spiritual magic, everything seems to be no different, the only difference is that McGrenelly is asleep, according to Ina's description, McGrenelly's current situation can only be described as falling asleep, and even after returning to Garros City, he can occasionally be heard snoring slightly.
But McGrenelly slept too long this night.
From the day he found the Black Castle until the two of them returned to Garros, McGrenelly had slept for seven days, and in those seven days he had not woken up once, nor had he eaten anything, and had been in a deep sleep, his body being haggard day by day.
According to Ina, McGrenelly was too thin to look good when she came this morning.
Lin Li frowned and listened to what Ina said, but he still couldn't remember what magic could cause such an effect, so after thinking about it, he decided to go and see it first.
"Ina, you take me to see Mr. McGreeney first, and now I can't think of anything to do for a while."
"Yes." Ina nodded very obediently, since her father fell, the little girl's heart has been completely confused, and at this time, under Lin Li's continuous comfort, she has only slightly recovered some of her previous vitality.
Lin Li was a little anxious, and he didn't have time to say hello to Gray'an, but just found Kevin and said: "Something happened to my friend, I have to go over to see what the situation is, and you can help me explain to Gray's in a while." ”
"Oops! I forgot to tell him about it...... "Lin Li had already left the Emerald Tower, and Kevin suddenly remembered something important, but when he wanted to chase him out, he found that the two had already disappeared.
The place where the McGrenell and his daughter had landed was not far away, and after coming out of the Emerald Tower, they turned a few more streets and soon came to an old house.
The house looked like it was a few years old, and when he walked up to the bedroom on the second floor, Lin Li always felt the planks under his feet tremble slightly.
The room was clean and tidy, but the furniture was a little shabby, and the blanket that covered McGrenelly even had a few patches.
Remembering that McGrenelly had told him that the reward for hunting a fifth-level demonic beast lion scorpion in the Luoyue Mountain Range was only a few dozen gold coins, Lin Li also had some understanding of the situation of their father and daughter.
However, Lin Li just kept this matter in his heart and didn't say anything to Ina.
