Chapter 17: How is he?!
In the evening, the seaside villa of the mage's apprentice was as peaceful as ever.
As usual, after dinner, Dai Wei came out of the villa and began to work in the garden, pruning the branches, hoeing the grass, loosening the soil, watering, she did it all by herself, and she did it very seriously.
She likes to do this, because it allows her to relax in the boring process of learning spells.
Soon, some chores were done, and fine beads of sweat oozed from Dai Wei's forehead, she did not feel tired, and the moderate labor made her feel physically and mentally happy.
The sunset is about to sink into the sea level, and the golden red light is sprinkled down, shining on the whole surface of the sea with golden light, which is very beautiful, this is Dai Wei's favorite beauty.
She sat on a stone chair and admired it quietly until the sun had completely disappeared and the sky began to darken, and then she got up and returned to the villa.
At this time, she saw a figure standing not far from the garden, the sky was a little dark, and after carefully distinguishing it, it was her new guard, Luo Lin.
After putting on the armor, the boy simply changed, completely lost the feeling of weakness in the past, and he now gave Dai Wei a very energetic and energetic feeling, like a vigorous tree.
Dai Wei was in a good mood and greeted with a smile: "Hey, Rollin, has your trouble been solved?" ”
Luo Lin also smiled back, touched his chest with one hand, and performed the warrior's courtesy: "It's all over." Thank you Miss Davi for your concern. ”
"That's good. But you're still young, don't think it's enough to be my bodyguard, you'll have to find time to hone your martial arts. If you're diligent enough, I think Uncle Harlem will be more than willing to guide you. "Davy likes hard-working people, just like herself, who takes the time to improve her spell abilities at every moment.
Rollin smiled bitterly in his heart, but he couldn't say clearly what he suspected of Haring, because he had no evidence, and no one would believe what he said, but he would be suspected of bad intentions, so he could only smile and say: "Yes, Miss David, I will have a good relationship with Uncle Haring." ”
"Well, that's good. Then you are busy, I will also go to rest. Dai Wei nodded in satisfaction.
"Wait." Rollin shouted, he wasn't here to just say a few words of greeting.
"What's the matter?" Dai Wei asked.
Luo Lin's eyes quickly scanned the surroundings, and he didn't notice that anyone was paying attention to this, so he lowered his voice and said, "Miss Dai Wei, I have something important to say to you alone. ”
"Alone?" Dai Wei looked at the darker and darker sky, and at this time, talking to a young man alone would cause gossip, she shook her head and refused: "No, let's talk about something now, I'll listen." ”
Rollin had no choice but to open his mouth to tell Davi about his experience in the swamp wetlands, which should have been said in the morning, but in the morning, Haring's strange reaction made him feel like a heart, and he didn't want to involve Davi so early at that time.
But now that the shape has changed, I don't want to say that it can't be done. But Davi had been on the third floor, and he hadn't found a chance to talk to her until now.
"Here's the thing, I'm going to the swamp this time, in the goblin camp...... Oh, it's all right, Miss Davi, and you can get some rest. Rollin changed his tone abruptly, and his voice returned to his normal tone, for he saw Harlem coming out of the other side of the villa.
He couldn't say it to Haring's face, lest he know he was on guard. Facing a fifteenth-level warrior, no matter how well prepared Rollin was, he was a very dangerous and difficult opponent. In order to win bigger, Rollin must try to hide in the shadows as much as possible.
Dai Wei frowned, her keen observation made her aware of Rollin's boy's taboo against Harlem, and she didn't know why. Although the first half of Rollin's words made her very curious, since he refused to say it in front of Haring, Davi didn't ask.
She didn't want Haring to feel left out and alienated, this regular soldier was a guard who had spent a lot of money, had a lot of connections, and finally came here for the sake of her mentor Vianna, and she had to pay attention to his feelings.
So she didn't ask, and smiled, "Well, okay." ”
She walked into the villa.
Harlem followed closely, and when he got closer, the captain of the guard said in a cold voice: "Rollin, pay attention to your duty. Don't disturb Miss Dai Wei unless necessary. ”
Rollin lowered his head, and he noticed that the captain's hand had been holding the hilt of the sword, and his knuckles were white, a detail that betrayed the tension in his heart.
What is he nervous about? What's there to be nervous about? Rollin combined his memories with his past memories and became more and more certain about the impending assassination tonight and the fact that this Harlem was a mole.
"Yes, Uncle Harlin, I remember." Rollin was still very respectful on the surface.
"Well, go on patrol and do your job." Harlem nodded, turned and entered the villa, he was Davi's bodyguard, and was responsible for her personal safety.
Rollin had no way to follow up, so he could only patrol around the outside of the villa, and he wandered to the backyard of the villa, and he saw the window of the alchemy room on the third floor.
The window was open, and there were lights inside, and there was a faint figure flickering, which meant that there were people inside, and Rollin stepped back a little and saw the situation in the window, and Dai Wei was busy inside.
At this time, the sky had completely darkened, there were clouds in the sky, obscuring the stars and moon, there was no light, and the real fingers could not be seen.
Rollin's heart moved, he couldn't passively wait for things to happen, he had to take the initiative, and now Dai Wei was alone in the alchemy room, which was a good opportunity to remind her.
But how do you remind her?
Climb to the third floor? Unreliable, this wall is too smooth to climb at all, and after climbing up, what will Dai Wei think of him?
After thinking about it, Rollin decided to write a note and throw it in.
There was no paper, so Rollin found a rag and wrote his warning in black charcoal. Rollin doesn't know much about the words of this world, but he knows some words that express the basic meaning, because there are all kinds of interesting quest books in the game, all written in the original language of this world, and then there is a Chinese translation, and he reads more and remembers some.
When he finished writing, he wrapped the rag around the stone, looked at the location of the alchemy room, and threw it in.
Third floor.
Dai Wei was intently studying the spell properties of the Frost Fern in the room, when she was startled by the sudden 'click' sound in the room, and turned her head to see an extra rag on the ground.
She was very strange, and went over and picked up the cloth bag, and now there seemed to be some pattern on it, so she untied the cloth knot, and there was a stone wrapped in the cloth bag, presumably to increase its weight, and unfolded the rag, and sure enough, there were words on it: 'Be careful Harlem.' Tonight is dangerous, there is an assassination! If you are not defeated, I will answer you at the staircase on the second floor of the villa! ’
The handwriting was crooked, and a few of them were written incorrectly, but the meaning was very clear, and Dai Wei frowned for a moment, a little angry in her heart, she suspected that it was a prank.
Assassination? She is the apprentice of the ** master, who would dare to assassinate her? also provoked her relationship with the most powerful guard, which was simply sinister. Dai Wei looked through the rags, but did not find the payment, and did not know who wrote it.
If she knew who threw the rag, she would definitely punish him severely!
Dai Wei didn't pay attention to the news on the rag at all, she directly put the cloth on the alcohol flame and burned it, and then continued the previous reality.
After more than half an hour, there was a sudden knock on the door of the alchemy room.
Being disturbed one after another made Dai Wei feel a little irritable, and asked loudly, "Who?" ”
"Miss Davi, it's me." Outside the door came the voice of the guard Haring.
"What's the matter?" Dai Wei restrained her feelings and tried to make her tone appear calmer.
"I have something important to report to you, can you open the door?" Harlem said that the door of the alchemy room is specially reinforced, and there are spell runes on it to block, which is the handwriting of the ** master Vianna, and no one wants to enter without the consent of the master.
If it was in the past, Dai Wei would open the door without doubt, but today it was a little different, she was just about to open the door, but suddenly remembered the reminder on the cloth strip, and her footsteps suddenly stopped.
The words 'Beware of Harlem' and 'Assassination' came to her mind, making her hesitate, Haring knew her routine, and she had never bothered in the past, but today it was a little abnormal.
"What's the matter, just say it, there's no one else here anyway." Dai Wei replied.
There was a pause outside the door for a moment, and then a voice continued to come in: "Okay." Miss, I have just received urgent news that your father, Sir Homlin, was in a horse when he was riding in the carriage, and that Sir had accidentally fallen into the carriage and was dying, and that you needed to make a return trip. ”
As soon as she heard that her father had an accident, Dai Wei was in a hurry, her judgment plummeted, and she hurriedly said, "Okay, you wait, I'll come immediately." ”
Although her father was called a miser, he was very fond of her, and from childhood to adulthood, he was always responsive. In this villa, all her financial expenses for learning spells were provided by her father, and Davy's affection for Homlin was very deep.
She couldn't care about anything, hurriedly extinguished the alcohol lamp, put on her cloak, canceled the runes on the door of the alchemy room, and opened the door.
There was a guard standing outside the door, Haring, who was also anxious, and when he saw Dai Wei, a trace of imperceptible guilt flashed in his eyes, but Dai Wei was flustered and didn't show up at all. Haring said eagerly, "Miss, come with me." ”
"Okay, you lead the way!" Dai Wei was so confused that she couldn't take care of anything, she just wanted to see her father as much as she could.
Harlem was in front, and Davi followed, and the two of them walked all the way.
I don't know why, Harlem's degree is getting faster and faster, almost to the point that Dai Wei can't catch up, and when he reaches the staircase on the third floor, Dai Wei has to shout: "Wait a minute, Uncle Haring, slow down." ”
Haring didn't hear it, and he quickly descended the stairs, and by the time Davi reached the top of the stairs, he was gone.
"Watch out for Harlem!" This sentence suddenly appeared in Dai Wei's mind, she felt that something was wrong, at this moment, she suddenly felt a slight wind behind her, turned her head to look, and saw a black shadow flying close to her, and there was a cold light in the black shadow's hand, it was a dagger.
"No, it's an assassin! It was a premeditated assassination! Dai Wei was shocked, and quickly went down the stairs while casting a spell, and a cold air appeared in her hand, which was her best ice thorn technique.
But Dai Wei soon realized that her spell needed half a second to cast, and the opponent was so fast that he would definitely stab the dagger into her heart before her spell was completed.
Seeing that life-threatening cold light getting closer and closer to her heart, her heart was full of despair and remorse.
Thoughts involuntarily flashed through her mind.
"What a fool I am! I was warned of the danger in advance but didn't care about it, and now I deserve to suffer such a calamity! ”
"Harlem is indeed a traitor, this man is really hateful! In vain I trusted him so much! ”
"Who is that person who reminded me? What exactly does he know? ”
"Yes, the staircase on the second floor... He said he would answer at the staircase on the second floor! ”
The thought gave Dai Wei hope, and instead of trying to cast a spell to fight back, she retreated with all her might, and her instinct to survive caused her body to burst with amazing power.
She jumped almost straight down the stairs, jumped half a floor in one fell swoop, and when she landed, there was a loud 'thud', and then she felt a soft 'click' in her ankle, and a sharp pain hit her mind.
Her foot was twisted or broken, and she couldn't figure out what was going on, so she just ran down to the second floor without hesitation.
At this moment, she felt that the dozen or so steps in front of her were unusually far away, and the assassin behind her was flying closer, but her degree was as slow as a turtle, and the distance between the two sides was rapidly approaching.
"Am I going to die?"
Just as this thought crossed her mind, she saw a figure rushing out of the staircase on the second floor, he was holding a shield in one hand and a sword in the other, and she saw his face as he flew up the stairs and crossed her side.
He lowered his head, pursed his lips tightly, his lips were a little white, and his eyes were fixed on the top of the stairs, where David knew there was a terrifyingly powerful assassin who was too fast
"Rollin? How could it be him? Dai Wei was amazed.
