Chapter 20: Icegrass City
In Icegrass City, it is not the first time that the loss of a child has happened, plus the earl's youngest grandson, in just half a month, it has happened seven times.
In the entire Ice Grass City, all the families with children in the family are panicking!
Ah Gu used the levitation technique, and the speed was very fast, and before the sun set, he easily rushed to the Ice Grass City.
The gate tower of Icegrass City was heavily guarded, and more than a dozen soldiers in iron armor searched for passers-by one by one.
Ah Gu looked at his body, and he definitely couldn't get by.
You must know that the appearance of undead creatures in the city is much more terrifying than human traffickers, and there is a magic array at the top of the city gate, which is a magic that specializes in detecting undead creatures and various dark forces.
"Flying from above!" thought to Aku.
But it's too risky to do so, and who knows if the other party has magic like the "Forbidden Sky Spell".
In fact, Ah Gu thinks too much, you know, a genius like Hai Qisi is really rare in a thousand years, if it is not for the fall in the hands of Rosenia, in another ten years, he will inevitably become a generation of masters.
It's a pity that God is jealous of talents!
How is it possible for a medium-sized city like this to use such a large-scale strategic magic as the "Forbidden Sky Spell"?
Throwing high-level magic as a stone, there are really not many on this continent except for Haiqisi!
But Ah Gu still thought of a way.
"Heaven can't do it, I'll go from the ground!" Ah Gu hugged Nicole in his arms.
There is a kind of magic that can sneak in the dirt in the ancient magic books, but it has been lost for some reason, and if Hedges reveals the magic in this magic book, it will be tantamount to a nuclear war for the wizarding world.
Ah Gu was not in a hurry, waited for it to get dark, and fed Nicole some food by the way!
This girl is very easy to raise!
Nicole goes to bed when she's full, plays when she wakes up, eats when she's hungry, and continues to sleep when she's full!
In his spare time, Ah Gu hid under a large tree and studied various magic spells in ancient magic books.
Some magic is extremely cumbersome, and even with Ah Gu's understanding of magic, he can't learn it for a while.
Before you know it, it will be late, and the soldiers guarding the city gate will also have time to change shifts.
"Escape!" Ah Gu took Nicole, and his body slowly sank into the ground.
It feels like swimming in water, but the resistance is greater, if it is an ordinary person, it will not take long to exhaust the physical strength, but Ah Gu can't, so he has been "swimming" a long distance before coming out of the land.
"It's so interesting!" Ah Gu's heart was full of excitement, the world of magic is really magical!
At this time, the sun has completely set, but the city is brightly lit and bustling.
Bone placed Nicole on his shoulder and walked aimlessly.
Icegrass City is not as good as Ah Gu thought, two-thirds of the city is prosperous, and people have smiles on their faces, but another third, it is dark under the night, like a beast that devours light, it is terrifying!
Ah Gu moved aimlessly, just entering the "dark zone" of Ice Grass City!
In Icegrass City, the hierarchy of people is roughly divided into three classes.
The first rank is the aristocracy, who controls more than ninety percent of the resources of Ice Grass City.
The second class is civilians, although their income is not high, as long as they work hard, it is still no problem to fill their stomachs, and they can live in the sun.
And the third class of people are all kinds of "black households"!
Thieves, defected slaves, prostitutes, mercenaries, killers, etc., etc......
All of them are people who do not see the light.
These people are intertwined in Ice Grass City, forming a force that is not weak!
And those so-called high-ranking aristocratic lords have no intention of killing them all, after all, a lot of black jobs are not willing to do it themselves, so they will hand it over to these "black households"!
But this time it was different, the earl's grandson was lost, the dark area was also investigated, and the life of these "black households" was not easy.
Coincidentally, Ah Gu used the retreat and came to the edge of the dark zone!
As soon as Ah Gu entered the dark area, he was targeted.
But Ah Gu's dress was too scary, and these people didn't dare to act rashly.
At the base of a dilapidated building, two ragged men stared at Bones, and Nicole on Bones' shoulders.
"Big brother, this is a rookie, and he actually brought a child to our territory!" a young man whispered.
He was of short stature, his clothes were shabby, his hair was messy, but his eyes flashed dangerously, and he always held a dagger in his hand!
"Go test the water! Be careful!" whispered the man known as Big Brother.
With a wave of his hand, the young man surrounded him from several different directions.
Raiding and robbing houses is a common thing for them.
Although Ah Gu didn't know much about the situation at this time, he also felt that the atmosphere was wrong.
A total of five people surrounded him from all directions.
"What's the situation? Do you know that I'm an undead?" Ah Gu's heart suddenly suddenly, he hid himself very well, and there should be no flaws!
Escape, or wait and see?
Ah Gu has no understanding of his own strength now, and the only ones who have fought with him from beginning to end are the four rookies of the death squad and the general who is already at the end of the strong crossbow, and he doesn't know what level his strength is on this continent!
It's too late, it's too soon!
Several young men have already surrounded the bones, each with weapons, clubs, daggers, stool legs, broken wine bottles, and all sorts of things!
The young man with the dagger came to Ah Gu and shouted in a low voice: "Brother, I've been short of money lately, so borrow a few money to spend!"
As he spoke, the dagger still shook in front of Ah Gu: "By the way, I think this kid is good, so let's stay! It's not bad to sell a few silver coins!"
The ratio of currency in this country is 1 gold: 100 silver: 10,000 copper.
Ordinary people simply can't afford to use gold coins.
Ah Gu was silent for a few seconds, and then asked slowly, "You are robbers?"
"Don't you see that?" the young man shook the dagger in his hand.
Ah Gu breathed a sigh of relief and wiped a handful of non-existent sweat!
Originally, Ah Gu didn't want to have more rights and wrongs, if he really encountered a robbery, give him a few dollars and it would be over!
But when he heard the other party say that he wanted to buy Nicole for silver coins, the fire in Ah Gu's heart suddenly rose.
"You said you were going to buy my daughter for silver coins!" Agu's voice sounded strange.
The young man subconsciously took a step back, but remembering that he still had so many brothers, he had strengthened his courage and was ready to stab the man in black in front of him first, and when he saw blood, he would be afraid of himself!
"Brother, you toast and don't eat ......"
"Hoo !!"
A burst of wind swept up.
"Boom!"
The few people next to them only felt the ground shake under their feet, and the next scene in front of them made everyone stunned.
Ah Gu held the Nine Dragons stick in his hand and slammed it on the head of the young man, who was smashed into a puddle of meat from head to toe!
Even the ground was smashed into a big hole!
The remaining four young people were covered in cold sweat all at once, not to mention anything else, just such a long iron rod would cost at least 100 catties, but this person carried it with one hand like a chopstick.
"Who else said they were going to buy my daughter?"
The men screamed, turned and ran.
The "big brother" who was hiding in the shadows also wiped a cold sweat.
"Damn, I've hit a hard stubble!"
As soon as he thought of this, Ah Gu raised his hand and dropped the second person who was also stoned to death.
Ever since he woke up, he had no mercy for the living creatures in his heart.
The remaining three people rushed into the alley and disappeared.
Ah Gu didn't bother to continue chasing, he also guessed what kind of place this was!
These "black households" are doing illegal things, but they are also not protected by the law, and they are dead when they die.
Bone turned to leave the "Dark Zone", but in the darkness, a pair of eyes were staring at Nicole on his shoulder.
......
"Uncle, come and play~"
Several women dressed in fancy clothes stood at the corner of the street and waved to the passing bones.
Ah Gu looked at his body silently, and felt sad!
"Someday, I'm going to work out the magic that will turn me into a human again!" swore in his heart.
Nonsense or something, hehe!
As for money, he is not lacking, he inherited the inheritance of Herges, and it was more than enough to squander it for ten years.
At this point, Nicole started crying again.
Ah Gu knows that Nicole is hungry again!
"Daddy will take you to a good meal tonight!" Ah Gu took Nicole out of the dark area and into the brightly lit shopping street.
Finally, finding a restaurant that looks okay, Agu walks in with Nicole.
The business of the restaurant is very good, there are a lot of people, and it is also very noisy, Nicole is obviously not used to such an environment, and when she holds her mouth, she wants to cry!
Ah Gu struggled with all his strength, and finally made Nicole laugh!
The people in the restaurant saw Ah Gu with a child, and their faces were slightly wrong, but no one said anything.
"Here's this, this, and this!" said Agu, pointing to a few of the restaurant's signature specialties.
The waiter was not very old, fifteen or sixteen years old, with a smile on his face, and wanted to reach out to tease Nicole, but he was afraid that Ah Gu would be unhappy.
After fifteen minutes, all the dishes ordered by Ah Gu were ready, and Nicole was very happy to eat.
In the past few days, all I have eaten with Ah Gu is dry food.
The attentive waiter found that Ah Gu had been feeding Nicole all the time, and he didn't eat a bite!
"Waiter, do you have a room, give me one!" Ah Gu placed a silver coin on the table.
The waitress girl happily put away the silver coins, what does it have to do with whether the guests eat or not? Maybe it doesn't have the same appetite as others!
"Wait a minute, I'll take you up!" The waitress girl took Ah Gu to the second floor.
Ah Gu had just entered the room, and two people walked in at the door.
One is tall and thin, the other is short and fat.
When these two people went to that station, they revealed a murderous aura on their bodies, which made people stay away!
"Out of the Black Street!"
"Let's go, let's go!"
"Hey, wait for me!"
The restaurant was originally lively, and the next second people checked out and left.
The waitress girl went downstairs and could only smile bitterly when she looked at the empty restaurant.
"Which room did that guy live in just now!" the tall thin man asked in a cold voice.
The little girl was not afraid, but said with a smile: "Guest privacy or something......
"Ding!"
The tall and thin man threw two silver coins on the ground.
"Well, it doesn't matter if it's private or anything!" said the little girl happily.
