Chapter 10: Gulenhar

On the third floor of the tower, Jory stood in front of the handrail, clutching the sharp knife he had snatched from the thin young man, and watched him accuse himself loudly in a stunned manner.

How can people be so shameless?

"That's him!" Like a complete victim, the thin young man pointed at Qiao Li with righteous indignation and shouted: "At that time, the thief almost stabbed me to death with the knife in his hand!" ”

The sturdy "zombies" holding the bone-cutting sword all stared at Jory.

Jory almost squirted out a mouthful of depressed stuffy blood, and his brain was hot! He clenched his fists and scolded in a low voice: "**...... Do you want...... Face? ”

"To defy the rules of the town is to defy us and kill him!"

The strongest zombie swung the bone slashing sword, and stepped on the steps to walk up, not fast, but there was a kind of murderous aura that crept into Jori's senses, and if these "zombie" warriors were allowed to listen to the young man's nonsense, Jory had no doubt that he would be hacked to death with a knife.

Seeing the zombies on the second floor, Jory stared at the thin young man and retracted his gaze, and he shouted to the zombie guards on the second floor, "Wait! Don't you think it's strange that I just came out of the dark forest, and I haven't been in Tomb Moss Town for less than two days, so how can I knowingly break the law! ”

After the zombie soldiers went up to the second floor, the grievances and horrors on Kylo's face suddenly melted away, and he turned to jokingly and sneered at Jory on the third floor, changing his face as fast as flipping a book, hearing Jory's rebuttal, Kylo sneered angrily: "You just pretend!" You think you'll be fooled by hiding her coat of arms, newcomer? Hmph, I'll be honest with you, unless the coat of arms gives up on the reborn on its own, it will never be able to get rid of it, stupid! Why don't you show the coat of arms to the guards, where did you get the coat of arms of this newcomer? ”

"Coat of Arms ......"

At this time, Jory understood the words that kept shouting in Kailo's mouth, heraldry, it should be something that distinguishes newcomers from veterans, and the other party seems to have evil thoughts about him because of this, the key is that he doesn't even know what heraldic is!

The zombie soldiers paused, their eyes turning back and forth on Jory and Kylo, as if to ponder the truth of their words. If someone is killed, they will be killed, and the town guards will not hesitate, but if they are used by others, how will these guards allow others to treat them as fools?

To flout the law is to flout them, to show contempt for them, and to contempt for their consequences, including fraud, and what are the consequences...... You tell me?

The hesitation of the zombie guard made Kello's heart suddenly tighten, and he looked at Jory with angry eyes on his face: "Blow some more useful blows, look at the death qi on your body, it is thicker than mine!" Do you dare to say that you are a person who has just come out of the dark forest? ”

"Hmm...... Hum...... Hmmm......"

After Kylo's shout, a strange low ballad was heard.

Bruno, who was shrouded in a black cloak, walked side by side with the tavern owner Soria and returned to the tavern. As soon as she entered, Soria's dark green eyes widened in astonishment, and she looked at the mess in the tower, where several tables and chairs on the first floor had been knocked to pieces, breaking several chairs.

"Who did this, who smashed my shop!" Soria angrily turned his height and exclaimed, "Fat? Fatty! Where are you! "The stall at the entrance of the tower was empty, and the stouting stitching monster was gone, while several townsfolk stood not far away, all watching the tavern.

Bruno smiled calmly: "No need to call, go up with me and take a look, I think, you will find the culprit." ”

The two of them went upstairs, and they immediately saw Kylo standing on the steps of the stairs with blood on his forehead, looking at the two men who had returned. Kylo's gaze dodged unintentionally: "Boss? Mistress Bruno...... You've come just in time! As soon as his dodging gaze was retracted, and as soon as he was confident, Kylo said angrily: "Boss, the small worker you recruited today, when you were hit by me when you stole money, you will kill me!" It's a good thing the guards came quickly, or you wouldn't have seen me! ”

"Oh, really?" Bruno said a little playfully, and went straight past him to the third floor.

The zombie guards all looked at Bruno, who was dressed in black, and other people might not care much about it, but Bruno's status as a psychic temple monk would be quite troublesome once he clashed with him.

Bruno appeared on the third floor with his hands behind his back, as if he didn't feel that others were looking at him, and said lightly: "I took this person away, if you have any problems, go directly to the psychic temple to find me." ”

"Mr. Monk......" The gray eyes of the captain of the guard were a little hesitant, and he said: "You know the rules of Castlevania, cities, towns, and settlements all have their own laws, and we can't let go of those who violate them. ”

Hearing this, Kylo echoed loudly: "Yes! Everyone violates the rules, how can the rule of Castlevania ......" Soria glared at Kylo, and immediately let Kylo's words swallow back.

"That's right." Bruno thought about it with his chin very sincerely, and then said lightly: "Okay, you can dispose of him at will......"

“…… Well, I'm going to the Dark Temple tomorrow, and even if I don't sacrifice the lamb, the high priest won't blame me." It's not that I'm lazy, it's because he's breaking the rules. Bruno pointed to Jory, who looked dull, and as if he had found a reason to excuse himself, he walked downstairs with a relaxed and natural expression, and prepared to leave.

The previous sentence relieved the zombie guards, after all, they didn't want to clash with the people of the psychic temple, and Kylo's thin face was full of cruelty and sneer when he heard that Bruno was willing to leave it alone. However, when Bruno took a breath and said the second sentence, the third floor of the tavern fell silent......

On the first floor of the tavern, Bruno's muttering faintly came: "Isn't it just a garbage who eats and waits for death, kill it, kill it, what's the matter with this guy Jory, that kind of thing can keep him alive, if I come, I would have ...... it a long time ago" The voice gradually faded away.

At the outer entrance to Tomb Moss Town, in front of the rows of fences, stood two tall skeletons, carrying metal heavy swords in their claws, meticulously guarding the gates of Tomb Moss Town. Bruno, who had come out of the direction of the town, came to the fence and looked up, as if looking at the two skeletons.

The two skeletons were still standing upright at their posts, and the dripping soul fire in the eye sockets of their skulls glanced down at Bruno.

"Man, you're losing." Bruno reached out and handed it to one of the skeleton guards.

"......" In the eyes of the skeleton, two soul fires flashed one after another, and it looked very unhappy.

Another skeleton muttered quietly, "Why do you think you've won, we haven't seen him alive yet, and the bet doesn't count." ”

"Mentor, mentor!!"

Coincidentally, it was definitely a coincidence, and the shouts from far to near instantly silenced the skeleton guards.

A man ran out of the tavern, a dirty shirt, jeans stained with a few pieces of mud, and Jory, who was in a mess, and ran over quickly.

Bruno, he held his hand at the skull's waist, rubbing his fingers.

The soul fire in the skulls of the two skeleton guards flashed wildly, and the jawbones opened and closed with a click, as if they were secretly invective, and then took out a bag from the iron chest guard, and with a heavy one, took out two round coins and threw them to Bruno, standing up straight, no longer looking at Bruno, as if he did not know him.

"Mentor! ...... "Jory ran over and gasped: "The guards let me go, fortunately you came in time...... Thank you. ”

In the past, I was always oppressed and bullied by my boss in the company, because I was a leader, and secondly, Jory was already a civilian, with the idea of keeping his job and saying everything, but it doesn't mean that he is an elm pimple, on the contrary, Jory is very smart in some way. The mad dog was bitten by the mad dog in the Rose Tavern, and if Bruno hadn't appeared in time, he didn't know what would have happened, whether Bruno was sincere in defending Jory or had ulterior motives, Jory had made a note of his favor.

Bruno said with great disdain: "There is nothing to thank me, tomorrow is the day when the Dark Temple opens, a few little guards, dare to pick someone who kills the high priest at such a time, it is self-defeating." ”

The mad dog in the Rose Hotel, Jory has never seen this kind of madman who bites people when he sees them, and he originally had a passable attitude, but now it's different.

Such a mad dog, if you give Jory another chance, he will definitely kill him!

Tomorrow night will be the beginning of the long dark night of the month, and on this day, the sacrificial fire of the Dark Temple will be lit. Every month, each round of reborn lambs will have this experience, trials in the dark forest, and then stepping on the dark altar, the priests will pray and call on the Force of Castlevania to guide the lamb in talent.

But whoever leads to the reborn who has excellent talents will lose the insulting title of lamb and will exist for its will as a warrior of Castlevania. On the way, Bruno briefly explained some of the circumstances of the awakening ritual to Jory, during which Jory asked Bruno what if he didn't awaken his talent?

Bruno did not answer him, but responded to Jory with a cold silence.

On the way, Bruno picked and chose to say a few points of the awakening ceremony for Jory, but he was obviously not a suitable narrator, plus Jory still couldn't forget what happened in the tavern, one was not good to talk about, the other was not good to hear, and the two returned to the city gate they passed by yesterday without saying anything.

"See this city, you saw it once yesterday...... Well, this is not a 'castlevania', it is a city built for the high demons and the reborn, Gurenhar, if it weren't for the Dark Altar built in the city, you wouldn't be qualified to enter. ”

Under the desolate city gates, Bruno led Jory into Gurenhar. Before, from the outside, the fog shrouded in Gulunhar made it vague and mysterious, and it was not until Jory entered the city at this moment that he saw that the fog that shrouded the city was actually emitted from the city!

And, Jory seemed to understand, and Weishenme Bruno told himself that he was not qualified to enter the city.

The ground under the feet is similar to the ordinary stone slab, a road at the gate of the city leads directly to the depths of the city, and the pattern on both sides is also very similar to the architectural style that Jory recognizes, looking at a Western European style of ancient times, retro, there are open shops, vendors on the ground, although the city is filled with a faint white fog, some uncomfortable visual sense, but at least it is a product of human civilization.

But! The creatures of this city are absolutely insulated from humans!

The vendor who set up a stall on the ground, the stall owner turned out to be a skeleton without flesh and blood, sitting on a square stone with his legs crossed, waiting for customers. On the stall of the little skeleton, there is a dazzling... Bone.

There was a man with blood-red eyes, leaning against a doorway, his arms folded, two fierce eyes staring at every creature that passed by, grinding his teeth and roaring from time to time. There was a sign above the blood-eyed man's head, and the tadpole inscription read: Mills Weapons Shop.

"In the city, don't look them in the eye, that will make them think you're provocative." Bruno said suddenly.

Jory's heart was shocked, "they"? Jory's inexplicable tadpole language separates him, it, and her. That's right, Jory heard Bruno call them instead of them!

The city is full of demons and monsters, and demons and monsters in human skin!

"Before the end of the awakening ceremony tomorrow, the things in Gulunhar don't dare to hurt you, these things don't have the courage to stir up trouble under the eyelids of the sacrifice, but don't die, when the ceremony is over, your survival guarantee will also end together...... In short, you should know what I mean. Bruno continued: "The east of the city is the trading area, and you follow me through the east of the city to the butcher's inn in the center of the city, where you will stay tonight. ”

"Enjoy the peaceful time of Zuihou, after tomorrow, you will know the dangers in the dark forest, it is just child's play."

(During today's lunch break, I took advantage of the company's leaders not paying attention and slipped back to code words, hmm...... Brave enough)
