Chapter Ninety-Five: Fate
"Damn, how could it be you?"
When John easily subdued the black-robed man and took off his hat, John's expression suddenly changed to a look of surprise.
This face, no, it should be said to be a skeletal face, has no flesh at all, only pale bones, and soul fire that keeps flickering in the eye sockets, 100% lich.
With the memory of the grove at that time, John's memory is completely consistent with the lich he is now pressed to the ground, why didn't he find out in advance, it turned out to be the ghost of the black robe on his body, which has the effect of shielding the aura and hiding the appearance.
The lich who was pushed to the ground was also stunned for a moment, and then remembered who John was in front of him.
A sentence of "I'm sorry! Directly from his trembling jaw, from the fire of his soul that kept flickering because of fear, it could be seen that he was so afraid of John that he surrendered without even resisting.
"Why are you here?"
John has an urge to complain, is this world too small, and the probability of meeting him can go to the lottery.
"I, I'm here for him."
The lich shuddered and pointed at Parker behind John.
John glanced at Parker, who was pale and incredulous, and seemed to be frightened by the appearance of the lich, speaking of the lich, it is a term that children can cry when they hear it, one of the classic villains in fairy tales, and the best example used by parents to teach bear children, often just say "If you don't obey, the lich will come to catch you at night", even in the bear child, you have to show a scared look.
"He, what's the matter with him?"
Pulling up the lich's collar and retracting his gaze, John said rather unceremoniously as he pulled up the lich on the ground.
After doing it for a long time, it turned out that the same kind of breath was emitted by this guy, no wonder there was a familiar feeling.
In fact, wearing props that can isolate the aura on the body can be ineffective against ordinary people or reconnaissance methods, but when encountering higher-level enemies, this kind of props are useless, and people of the level of John and Shirley can naturally detect it easily.
"I said, I said, don't hit me, I'm really going to die!"
The lich shouted in fear.
John has an even greater urge to doubt life, and it is really a tragedy that the lich should be in your share.
Releasing his collar and letting the lich fall back into place, John stood up and said condescendingly, "Speak quickly, or I'll really tear you down!" ”
"Yes, yes, yes!"
The lich shuddered, and then summoned it truthfully.
The reason why he chased Parker was because Parker had a lot to do with a treasure, and if you want to ask him why he had this news, of course, he was lucky enough to buy it from a demon who sold special information, and it is said that after catching Parker and taking it to that place, he should be able to get the sealed treasure.
But Parker was even more difficult to catch than he thought, and chased him for days, but he never caught up with him, if it weren't for the fact that he had left a trace of tracking magic on Parker's body, although due to time, it almost reached the point of failure, making the tracking effect dispensable, but the lich still reluctantly followed the aura to chase him.
If it's in an inaccessible place like the wild, it's easy to say that you can chase it according to the breath, but in the place where humans live, all kinds of breath are mixed together, and it is inevitable that there will be mistakes.
Originally, I thought that I could catch Parker this time, but it seems that the lich thought too much, and the person who caught it was not caught, and he was caught by the lich who used to say "see once and kill once", and this time he may die here.
After hearing this, John was embarrassed for a while, looked at the lich who was rolling in front of him and bowed his head and bent over, and sighed helplessly.
Special information can be obtained from those demonic profiteers, and it only costs a certain price, it may be money or something else, and this method is not only known to John, but also to almost all humans and other races who are tainted with darkness.
The treasures of the seal, Parker, and the location, John feels that it has a lot to do with Cohen who was locked up in a certain time and space, and as for the real reason, he can't expect Cohen with memory loss to remember it, after all, he can't even remember his relatives at all, so don't count on it.
Although he is also itching for treasures, the current priority is not to do this, let Parker revitalize the family is the first priority, this three-month mission reward, John has a hunch, this is likely to be the key to a long-term breakthrough, and he can't waste other time.
Wait, John suddenly had a sense of enlightenment, he looked at Parker behind him and asked, "Where is your hometown?" ”
Parker was stopped by John's sudden question, although his mood fluctuated greatly because of the appearance of the lich, but seeing John's expression on their faces in uniform without incident, he also calmed down, raised his arm, waved it chaotically, and then pointed in a direction, and said: "It should be at this time, I have been walking in the direction of the sun for about a week, where is my hometown." ”
"Is it in the Holy Empire?"
John had a bad premonition.
"Well, yes, just near the border, a little bit far.
It's just that it was destroyed by a monster invasion a long time ago. ”
There was a bit of loneliness and sadness in Parker's eyes, and he remembered the night when the sky was full of fire, screams and cries, and everything was gone.
It's really ah, John raised his forehead, the direction he said, if it stretches all the way, it is the famous immortal land, the border is equal to the town of Lala, probably within that range, is this really a damn fate.
No, no, it's too early to say fate, just a few things, how can it represent fate.
John shook his head vigorously, discarding the thought that had chilled him.
The task of "infinite possibilities" and the information of the lich about the treasure in front of him, the two are combined, and no matter how unrelated hypotheses are established, they will still be connected by the same information.
By now, John can simply conclude that this treasure must be related to his mission, and the task issued by "Infinite Possibilities" does not clearly indicate how to revitalize the family, and it can only be relied on John's groping, and now that he has obtained new information, John has reason to believe that there must be something between the two.
"Okay, for the sake of the information you provide, you can roll with your men.
This time, I remember it well, if I meet you, I really want to kill you! ”
John said as he demonstrated, smashing the floor under his feet.
The Lich fled with his men in the same hurry as he had last time, and did not turn back.
"Well, is that really okay? That's a lich! ”
Parker said with trepidation when he saw John let them go.
When John heard this, he sneered: "Lich, I'm hehe, too." ”
