Chapter 51: Hiding Your Identity
The captain who was the leader of the advancing team suddenly shouted, "Stop! There's someone ahead! ”
All eyes were on the dark ahead at this moment.
Footsteps sounded in the darkness, and the appearance of a person appeared more and more clearly in their sight, and invariably, everyone clenched their weapons and stared at the figure in the darkness.
"It's so good, I thought it was those monsters."
It was a human being, a figure in the darkness that showed its true form in front of everyone, a black, curly-haired boy dressed in an explorer's costume and carrying a large backpack.
The captain's face did not change, he raised his weapon and pointed at John and asked, "Who are you?" Why is it here? ”
John looked at the edge of the sword, swallowed his saliva, took a few steps back and hurriedly explained: "Well, I'm an explorer, not a suspicious person, we didn't do anything here!" ”
"We?" The captain's suspicious look deepened.
When John saw the captain's eyes, he immediately felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly shouted back: "Master, don't hide!" Hurry up and get out! ”
At this time, the shadow of another person appeared in the darkness, and the people of the Knights of Light tensed their nerves.
"You're so noisy, can't you stop a little?" Out of the darkness came a tall figure, with conspicuous long white hair, a female bumpy figure, dressed in the costume of an explorer, compared to John, she was very relaxed, did not carry any big backpacks, and the whole person looked a very casual and beautiful person.
Shirley smiled and said hello, "Yo, good evening, everyone." ”
The captain stared at Shirley for a second or two, then closed his eyes and looked at the believer behind him, only to see that the believer shook his head, and the statue of the goddess on his palm was still flickering and bright.
The captain asked with a serious attitude, "What are you doing here?" ”
Shirley seemed to be a little upset by the captain's attitude, she made a stinky face, and said coldly: "What am I doing in this place, it has nothing to do with you, right?" ”
John, who was watching from the sidelines, was in a cold sweat, he thought, this script is not right, Shirley! I can only hope that Shirley won't make any big mess.
The captain raised his long sword and placed it on Shirley's neck and said, "To say or not to say?" ”
Shirley showed a mocking expression and said, "Is this what the Holy See calls being kind to people?" It's ironic. ”
The captain's expression was very displeased, as if what Shirley said hit his pain point, and he scolded: "It's not your turn to criticize the Holy See, don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless!" ”
Shirley looked into his eyes fearlessly and said, "Then you're going to kill me here?" ”
Seeing this, John could no longer turn a blind eye, and continued to improvise by Shirley, which would definitely develop into an event that could not be recovered, he pulled Shirley's clothes and hinted at her with his eyes.
But Shirley had already made up her mind to fight the captain, and ignored John's hints, and John was very tired of dealing with it.
Just when the captain was about to kill Shirley, John stood in front of Shirley, apologized vigorously, and said, "I'm sorry, Lord Knight!" My master is a person with this character, please be merciful, what do you ask, what do you want me to do, we will definitely cooperate well! ”
Hearing John say this and apologize like this, the captain also put down the sword in his hand, glanced at the arrogant Shirley, looked at John, and said: "For the sake of your apprentice, I will let you go this time, the Holy See is not something that a little minion like you can insult." ”
Shirley was furious when she heard this, and she was about to get angry, but John immediately covered her mouth and smiled at the captain.
"Mm.........mm
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, please don't care, my master is sick again."
The captain didn't care about this little thing, and said, "Come with us, I have something to ask you about this place." ”
John hurriedly nodded in agreement.
Shirley, who was covered in her mouth, was very unhappy, she opened her mouth and bit John's hand fiercely.
Fortunately, there was no pain, and he couldn't feel the pain caused by the physical attack, John thought, and she still bit it, as long as she didn't bite off the human skin and reveal her identity.
………
Outside the town of Lara.
Around a campfire that rises in the dark.
The captain stared at John's eyes seriously for three or four seconds before letting go and saying, "You are a human. ”
Taking John and the two of them out of the city, the captain and his team members began to conduct a detailed investigation into whether the two of them were undead in disguise, such as applying holy water to their arms, placing the weapon blessed by the Holy Light next to them, and the goddess statue to identify them, but none of them responded, and so on, the two of them were not undead, but human.
In fact, John really wants to say that this is not nonsense, Blood Ji is a human who was resurrected by a necromancer with some kind of special sacrificial magic array, and it is undeniable that he is a human being, and although he is a lich, he is dressed in human skin, and it is impossible to know his true identity without cutting his human skin, which is why John dares to take risks.
But the captain doesn't seem to be an ordinary person, and his observation is stronger than everyone present, even if the props have proved that he is a human being, but the captain still cares about him very much, this is what John doesn't understand, obviously all parts of his body are disguised, and he can live a good life if he is thrown into human society now, and he should not be exposed.
On the contrary, it was the captain's words of "you are human" that made John feel a sense of blockage, although this feeling disappeared quickly, but he still felt uncomfortable for some reason.
No, he's not human, just a lich disguised as a human, and the lich would love to say that to him.
The captain felt a little abnormal about John's reaction, but still said: "This town is very dangerous now, although the culprit is already at a loss, but it is still too dangerous for you to stay in this place, it is better to leave this place early, not everything can make money, in the future, I advise you to stay away from this dangerous place." ”
John nodded again and again, like a junior who humbly listened to the lessons of his elders, and said, "Yes, yes, I will definitely remember it." ”
When explaining the reason, John broke into the town because they were explorers who happened to be passing by, and it was not clear what was going on, so this person was middle-aged, and the captain of the tough guy faction would say this, and he couldn't see that he would say such things because he was ruthless.
Feeling that the time to leave had come, John got up first, pulled Shirley, who was unhappy beside him, and said apologetically: "Since it's okay, we won't bother you." ”
The captain spoke up at this time, and he smiled roughly: "Don't worry, we are not some beasts, we were just careful about your actions before, and we will not do anything harmful to you, it is already so late, it is very dangerous, I advise you to stay and spend this night with us." ”
No, it's not for this reason, but I really want to leave and stay with the Holy See, I think I'm going to lose sleep, John thought with mixed thoughts.
