Chapter 325: Homecoming
After getting the weird ring from the elf, Cheese had no intention of wearing him. First of all, he didn't want to know the date of his death, and secondly, he knew who made the wedding ring well, so he wouldn't wear the ring he made. That being said, the mage didn't really want to do anything with the ring, he just felt that as a grey robe, he had a responsibility to reclaim his fellow creations, especially before they could cause some disturbing situations. The hand under the robe put it in the dark pocket, and when he thought about it, compared to the other gray robes, he didn't seem to have this kind of work himself.
Maybe you should find time to do something, but what should you do? At least not to do something dangerous. Cheese's mind then drifted, and with this change of mentality, the rest of the stall owners on the black street were surprised to find that the gray-robed man didn't seem to be here to buy something, but more like he had come to steal the teacher. He didn't look like he wanted to buy each item, and if he showed a desire to buy it, he probably wanted to take it back and take it apart. Buyers, naturally, the more the better, but if the buyer will create competitors, it is better not to sell. If it weren't for Lady Teresa's presence, Cheese's state would have been in trouble.
"There's something special about this friend of yours. The white cat fairy wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead, and said to Kairaz as if he was complaining and teasing. The latter could only shrug his shoulders at this, although he didn't know why Cheese had entered this state, but anyone who had traveled with the mage for a while knew that it was a sign of his dedication to it, and it was unrealistic for him to think too much at this time.
As a result, this night tour of the black streets changed the taste for Atta and them. On the one hand, the mages who had thrown themselves into their own world did not explain to them the seemingly inexplicable goods, and at the same time demanded that they stop the cheese from angering the store with his rude behavior. When they reached the end of the black street, several people began to pant even though they had only walked a short distance. Thankfully, the noise in his ears woke Cheese out of that concentration, and he realized what he had just done, so he scratched his cheek a little awkwardly as he looked at his companion. At this time, it was Mrs. Teresa who broke the siege.
"Okay, I've already shown you the way, and I'll come back next time. Although the location of the Black Street changes for a long time, it is not too frequent. And I also believe that with your ability, someone will soon take the initiative to inform you of the location of the Black Street. This time, I think I'm here to explore the way. "I can tell that she herself is quite satisfied with tonight's event. For someone like Lady Teresa, who has deep roots in the rush, it is not a big deal to visit the dark streets once or twice, and she can go there every day without repeating it if she wants. So her purpose tonight was originally to show favor to this team and test what kind of people they really are. Now that her purpose has been met, and even after seeing Cheese's knowledge and focus, she has exceeded her expectations, and that is enough.
Jian Qi and Atta didn't care, they either didn't know anything about what was in the black street, or they were uneasy. The female swordsman, in particular, could see many of the uncomfortable parts of the merchandise, but without the cheese's interpretation, she could not know the origin of the discomfort, which was more uncomfortable than showing what she hated. As for Kailas, he had already seen Lady Teresa's purpose, so he naturally didn't care about it. Besides, in his mind, it would be better to keep his taran away from this kind of place.
In fact, compared to those ominous goods in the black street, Linlang is still more interested in a few people's appetite for the night concentration layer, but they have limited money and money now, and they don't have much purchasing power, and most of the time they can only pass by. About halfway through the night, the aroma of the food stalls remained the same, and the diners seated in their seats changed in waves, but what they repeated was the same. As they reached the edge of the scent, the exit of the Night Market, Lady Teresa suddenly asked, "Shall we separate here, shall you go back by yourselves, or shall I send someone to take you back?"
Cheese's eyebrows twitched slightly under the hood, and then he said softly, "We can go back ourselves, and we all remember the road to Felt Avenue." Besides, the street lights are not dark. ”
The cat elf nodded, didn't say anything more, and left in the other direction with her followers. Atta and Kenqi were still more or less immersed in the cheerful atmosphere brought by the night market, and their faces were still full of smiles. Only Kairath had quietly straightened out the strap, and at the same time reached out and pulled out the delphinium sword hanging from the sword seeker's waist and held it in his hand. This action immediately alerted the other two, as Kairaz would not carry it on its back due to the fact that the length of the Swift Sword affected four-legged walking, so it could also be counted as a signal that they were not safe. The question is, where does the threat come from?
The first thing that comes to mind is the night set behind it, maybe it was some unintentional act they did before that offended someone or some people, or maybe it was their overflowing novelty that attracted the hooligans who made a living out of it, and there was always trouble in crowded places. But Cheese snorted softly and looked up at the night sky between the eaves, "Alright, let's go." If it's any later, I'm afraid the dwarf will faint. ”
Street lamps, possibly with the use of low-quality lamp oil, flickered on and off in the night wind. The streets above the water are colder, and breathing can blow away a small patch of slightly whitish mist. The night in the complex city has a different kind of silence from the wilderness, it is not a real silence, but all the sounds are far away from the listener. It's like a cry from a dream, like a bowstring vibrating in the distance.
"Ding!" Two crisp thuds pierced the silence, and Kenqi and Kairaz protected Atta from left to right, and both Feiyan and Iron Bar managed to block an arrow flying from between the eaves. In fact, the female swordsman herself was aware of it, but she couldn't outpace these two companions. But this is not over, in an instant, there are more black lines in the halo of the street lamp, and there are arrows covering this squad in all directions, such a number and distance, unless a well-equipped and large shield army appears, the weapons in their hands alone cannot parry.
"Whew!" the gray robe was thrown out of its body and spread out in the air, like a squid with teeth and claws shaking its tentacles with fleshy membranes! Suddenly, a strong wind burst out of the robe, deflecting all the arrows that were shooting at them, and when Cheese reached out to catch his robe and draped it back on, there were already many fallen feathered arrows on the ground.
"It's a crossbow arrow, it takes time to wind it, we need to find a cover!" Kenqi immediately identified the type of arrow and made a judgment.
"I know the place, follow me. With that, Cheese took a big stride and ran forward.
