Chapter 171: Crisis Strikes

"Uh-huh, that's right!"

John nodded frequently, he liked Amiya's teacher's parable, it was very vivid, this is the evil lich.

"But, I don't think you're a lich like that, you are, Your Excellency, a good lich."

Amiya's eyes smiled like a crescent moon, a pure and beautiful smile.

"To be honest, I was really scared when I first heard you say you were a lich, but after seeing your eyes, I wasn't scared."

Amiya smiled happily, as if she was recounting what she had seen and heard yesterday, as if a child was describing yesterday's interesting events to his parents.

“………”

It's not bad to be praised by others, but there is a sense of disobedience inexplicably, he's a lich, and he is a good person, huh......... It's still not right.

"By the way, Lord John, may I ask you a question?"

"What?"

"If I'm not mistaken, the lich's body must be a pale skeleton, why did you ......?"

Amiya's gaze touched John's body covered by the black robe, and the little white face with a pair of bright red eyes was delicate.

"Huh? What, doubt me? ”

Quickly realizing something, John smiled wickedly and wrapped his black robe tightly.

Amiya shook her head.

"No, I'm curious if you're just wearing a face mask."

The smile on John's face remained the same, but the smile became stronger, and his red eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, and he approached Amiya.

"Well, do you want to touch my face?"

“……… No! I'm just trying to verify if you're human!! ”

Amiya looked at John earnestly.

The two looked at each other for three seconds, and John withdrew his gaze slightly away from Amiya.

"Oh, I see, forget it!"

Seeing this, Amiya's face was a little flustered.

"Wait a minute, actually, actually, I'd love to touch it! Please, Lord John! ”

John, who can see through his heart, laughs and is silent, can this girl's thoughts be hidden from his eyes?

“………”

John was silent.

“………”

Amiya stared at John worriedly, and the trees full of life echoed with the cheerful chirping of birds.

Later, John spoke.

"It's not impossible to touch my face."

"But ah, I have one condition! If you say yes, I'll give you a touch. ”

Amiya was silent for a while, and then said, "Well, I agree to your request as a princess, and of course, even if you are a lich, you can't go back!" ”

John makes an OK gesture.

"Of course, I'm an honest lich."

The fish has been hooked, John laughed inwardly.

………

………

In a long, deep and narrow tunnel, there are torches burning on both sides that continue to spread to the end.

"Hehe, I didn't expect the famous [Myriad Magician] to fail the mission once, and even asked us to appear."

The sound of mockery sounded in the tunnel, and so did the sound of footsteps.

"I'm killing you! I don't mind if you don't want to come! ”

The mediocre-looking fat man shouted impatiently in the face of the beautiful woman with black curly hair who was a head taller than him beside him.

"The boss is very angry."

Another huge man who followed behind him, more than three meters tall and almost reaching the top of the tunnel, said.

As soon as the boss was mentioned, the fat man was discouraged, and he said unwillingly: "This can't be helped, the opponent I met is a lich who is more proficient in space-time magic than me, and I may not be able to beat him, even if I do, I may not be able to catch him, and those people are still chasing after us, in case they find out, I may not even be able to come back here!" ”

"Nothing is enough, there is more than failure, you are just an excuse!"

A rabbit with a rabbit head, long and straight rabbit ears still swaying, and two meters tall on his feet said disdainfully.

The fat man was powerless to refute his words, so he could only walk silently with his fists in his hands.

"Fortunately, the other party is only a lich, and the people of the Holy See of Light should not know that the princess fell into his hands, you should be glad about this, Olaf, otherwise, you would not be standing here, you know the strictness of the organization's orders."

Another stout man with strong body hair spoke coldly on the side.

"Oh, okay, okay, let's not say a word or two about the seniors, Olaf seniors are going to cry!"

A short-haired girl with a lively and cute appearance mends a knife on the side.

The fat man is like a deflated balloon, and his face is hard to see.

At this time, the long passage also reached the end, and a tattered altar bathed in sunlight appeared in front of the five people.

Invariably, a white mask suitable for the size of their face appeared on each person's hand, including a wolf-shaped mask and a rabbit-shaped mask, and at a glance, each person seemed to represent a kind of animal, and there was a sense of déjà vu in the animal world, and they skillfully put on a white mask that completely covered their faces as they walked towards the altar.

"Alright, let's go meet the unscrupulous lich!"

The fat man wearing a fox mask angrily stepped into the altar first.

Crisis is coming!

………

………

"I'm finally able to come in, although it's a bit of a hassle."

The young swordsman who was waiting for the snow on his head walked out of the city gate of strict inspection while patting the snow on his head, because a bunch of bright knights with a strong aura were sitting on the field, and usually some grumpy old brothers had to bow their heads and bend down to accept the interrogation, and no one dared to be dissatisfied or make trouble.

Well, anyway, it's good to finally be able to come in.

The rest of the teammates also came in one after another after being checked.

The archer, the Night Elf Sister, said, "Let's go." ”

"Okay."

The four of them echoed in unison.

Walking on the snowy pavement, pedestrians come and go, but the atmosphere is a little different, people dressed as adventurers like them, or even ordinary people who are not adventurers, are wandering around the streets, as if looking for something.

"What's wrong?"

The young swordsman had doubts, and so did the rest, until they came to a sign where people were gathered, and they knew why.

"100,000,000 gold coins!!"

The young swordsman gasped, this is a bounty order for all people, not only adventurers, but anyone can get this stunned reward as long as they provide accurate information or find the princess in person.

"What are we waiting for, hurry up and find it!!"

The young swordsman said excitedly to the Night Elves.

After thinking for a long time, the Night Elf said in embarrassment, "However, the opponent who captured the princess is a guy from the [inferior] organization. ”

"Bad? Who is it?? ”

The young swordsman looked dazed.

"No, you've been adventurers for so long, don't you know their names?"

The Night Elves were slightly surprised, although it had only been half a year since they had formed a team, they still didn't expect them to be so ignorant.
