Chapter 371: Wanted
"It's not me, I didn't even inform him. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info" said Caroline, who didn't know how to teleport over long distances.
"I thought you would be able to transmit information over long distances." Su Mo's tone was full of disappointment.
This world of gods is seriously polarized, and it is naturally underdeveloped in long-distance communication, and those tools that can communicate over long distances are not at all affordable for ordinary people.
Unlike the earth, as long as it is not in an inaccessible place such as deep mountains and old forests, it is quite convenient to be able to connect to the outside world with a signal.
Now Su Mo could feel the presence of the four of them and some vague locations, but he couldn't keep in touch with them unless his strength continued to improve.
Or, learned some magic or spell like long-distance information transmission.
"Hey!"
Seeing Su Mo ignoring himself, the city lord's son suddenly couldn't hold back his face.
He didn't come here because someone informed him, but by coincidence, at least timingly.
Half a day after the adventure team took over the mission and set off, the son of the city lord thought about it, and felt that as a great knight, he naturally wanted to go and see it together - definitely not because of Caroline's relationship.
So, he followed with a few entourages, inquired all the way, and finally came to the neighborhood after a little effort, and happened to see the corpses all over the ground and the scene of Su Mo, a gentleman aristocrat, molesting a weak girl, from a distance, and the sense of justice in his heart was suddenly stimulated.
At least what he thought was a sense of justice was aroused, so he left behind his entourage, which had been pulled away for a short distance, and hurried over, finally arriving before the matter was irreparable.
The death of the other members of the adventure party is certainly not an irreparable event for the son of the city lord.
Even now he has forgotten that the purpose of this group of people is to find the monster and eradicate it, and now there is only one person in the eyes of the city lord's son, and that is Caroline.
"I can't imagine that my father's task was handed over to someone like you!" The son of the city lord said righteously, "I advise you to be obediently restrained, put down your weapons, and go back with me to be judged!" Otherwise, the sword in my hand will not let you go! ”
"I didn't have a weapon." Su Mo stretched out his two hands, opened them and shook them.
The city lord's son's face turned red for a while, and he suddenly became angry, and directly raised his hand and stabbed at Su Mo with a sword, but the position of the stab was the shoulder, he didn't plan to kill this person, but first gave him a lesson, and then brought it back to the city to slowly torture to death.
Now in front of Caroline, he still has to maintain his image.
It's just that the blade of the sword stopped at the moment when it almost touched Su Mo's shoulder.
A thick scarlet tongue was wrapped around the neck of the lord's son, and with a strong pull, the sword came out of his hand and fell to the ground, and the horse under his crotch also "screamed" and galloped away.
It wasn't to save its owner, who had been pulled into the jungle all at once, but to be frightened and run away.
A terrifying chewing sound came from the dense forest on the other side, and in a few moments, the mouth of the abyss shook its head and walked out of it, stained with dirt, leaves, and a few wounds that looked extremely hideous, but it was in good shape, and its eyes were back to normal black.
As for where the city lord's son went, looking at the few pieces of silver-white armor remnants spit out from the mouth of the abyss, he could basically tell.
Ran to Su Mo's side, the mouth of the abyss looked at it with a "flattering" look, and after being kicked by Su Mo just now, this thing woke up from a state of madness, hiding in the dense forest and shivering and didn't know what to do.
It's a ...... that it attacked such a dangerous "creature" It wasn't until later that the "Silver Knight" appeared, and the mouth of the abyss was about equal to the wisdom of a seven or eight-year-old child, and found an opportunity to please Su Mo, so he moved his mouth without saying a word and swallowed that guy.
Su Mo glanced at the mouth of the abyss, then looked at the few people who turned around and left decisively not far away, reached out and patted its head and said, "Okay, come with me." ”
"Okay, uh-" The mouth of the abyss mobilized the wisdom cells of his body, and finally came up with a word, "Master! At the same time, it leaned down as much as it could, remembering that the creature called the "horse" did just that.
"Take her." Su Mo stood on the body of the mouth of the abyss, pointed to Caroline who continued to lie helplessly on the ground, and said.
The mouth of the abyss stuck out its tongue, curled it up at Caroline's scream, and with two pairs of short legs, ran away from the city at a speed that did not belong to the horse, and soon disappeared.
The sky was getting darker, and from morning to dusk, the sound of horses' hooves broke the silence of hell on earth.
The lord of the castle in armor led a small part of his private army to arrive.
After receiving the report from his subordinates, the city lord Brooke didn't care about punishing those useless subordinates, so he mobilized his private army and rushed over.
The disappearance and death of ordinary commoners is nothing to the nobles, and if it weren't for the characteristics of the mouth of the abyss, Brooke would not have come up with any task to solve this matter.
Like their own army, it is impossible to use it in such a small matter, the private army of the nobles is raised by their own money, and the number of combat power of the private army largely represents the strength of the nobles, and every time you lose one, it is quite distressing.
As an earl, Brooke did not have a very large number of private troops, and if it wasn't for his son's accident, it would not have been possible to mobilize.
"My lord, the neighborhood has been searched, and there are nine corpses in total."
The men searched the neighborhood in a carpet manner, and found a total of nine mutilated corpses, including the charred one.
"Where's my son?"
Brooke sat on top of the big rock Su Mo had made and asked in a cold voice.
Cold sweat immediately broke out on the forehead of the man, and he was speechless. A man dressed in black walked over behind him and handed over the fragment of armor in his hand.
"What do you mean!" Brooke jerked to his feet, staring at the man in black.
The man in black shook his head and said, "This is the armor worn by the young master, which has been melted into such ......"
He didn't continue, but according to the reports of the men at noon, his fate was self-evident.
"You! Come here! Brooke, the lord of the city, pointed to a shivering man beside him, a man who had gone out with his son, who had been brought by Brooke to show the way, and the other three had been locked up in a dungeon.
The man walked with a twisted pace.
"Look, do you recognize this?" Brooke asked, taking the fragment of armor from the man in black's hand.
The man nodded at first, then shook his head violently when he saw that Brooke's face was wrong.
"Damn it! Do you know? Brooke snarled violently.
The man stiffened his head and nodded again.
"It's good to know." Brooke's tone softened, and just as the man breathed a sigh of relief, he jerked out the sword at his waist, and the cold light flickered, and the man's head fell to the ground.
Letting the blood splash on his face, and without wiping it, Brooke said, "I want these people to bury my son!" ”
"Yes, sir." The man in black nodded.
"I'm going to issue a wanted warrant, and you also take some people, catch up with them for me, and leave no one behind!" Brooke said.
"Do you know what's going on, my lord? The monster ......," the man in black asked.
"Humph!"
Brooke sneered, "What happened, I don't need and don't want to know, I just know that my son is dead, these people, every one of them is going to die!" ”
Brooke didn't know exactly what was going on, but that didn't stop him from listing all the rest of the adventure party as wanted criminals except for the corpses, and killing them to bury his son.
"Prepare, you'll leave tomorrow morning." Brooke said to the man in black, "Come to me with these people's heads." ”
"Yes, sir." A cruel smile appeared on the face of the man in black.
He is one of the most important combat forces under Brooke's command, a high-level thief, he doesn't need to do anything on weekdays, Brooke eats and drinks for him, even if the mouth of the abyss appears around, Brooke doesn't have the slightest intention of letting him do it.
Now that Brooke's only son has died, it's finally his turn to help.
The black-clad thief took a few men with him, traveled lightly, and began to follow the trail left behind by the mouth of the abyss.
Brooke, on the other hand, returned to the city and immediately issued a wanted warrant, wanting everyone including Su Mo, regardless of whether they were dead or not. He also wrote to the king of his principality and the lord of the nearby city, and as a nobleman, the heir to the hereditary title was killed.
With a single operation, Su Mo and them can become wanted criminals in the entire principality, and when the time comes, they will not be able to move an inch within the territory of the country.
――――――
On this side, Brooke incarnated as an "avenger", and on the other side, Caroline also stared at Su Mo, who was eating and drinking in front of her, and the anger in her eyes was about to overflow directly.
"Did you know that we're in a dangerous situation right now!" Looking at Su Mo's relaxed meal, Caroline finally couldn't help it and said word by word.
After the Lord's son was killed by the monster called the Abyssal Mouth, and left with her, Caroline knew that she was tied to the same ship by the young magician in front of her, and Caroline could already imagine that the enraged Lord would want them and send someone to hunt them down.
Although Caroline is innocent in this matter, many things in this world are unreasonable.
In such a situation, Caroline couldn't wait to stab the "pig teammate" who was still eating leisurely in front of her, and then fled alone. (To be continued.) )
