22. Kerry Town
The surrounding orcs all looked at the fifth-order orcs with admiration, but he only frowned. There are still many questions that cannot be explained, such as how the killer managed to bypass their sight and magical surveillance, and what the killer said to Lambert and why he came.
In fact, these are not easy to think about for orcs with simple brains, but as the team leader, this time the task has been smashed, and he is likely to offend the top two families of the Tiger Clan, so he must use his years of experience to rack his brains to speculate more, in order to give an explanation to Lambert's family elders.
At this time, Zhao Yuan had changed back into a loose robe, and sat leisurely on the back of the purple wheeled horse, Xiaopi was very happy because he returned to the loose and soft pocket, and Zhao Yuan's palm was suspended with a small lilac magic ball, and the analysis and discussion of the tiger orcs came into his ears word for word.
Now that he has accomplished his goal and avenged Monroe, Moose doesn't have to be coveted while suffering hatred and pressure to raise little Ike. But he was a wanderer again, and this time he didn't have to walk on his own legs.
By the time the ball suddenly snapped, Zhao Yuan had already listened to everyone's speculation about Lambert's death. The Tiger Clan and the Wolf Clan have always been friendly and jointly resist the oppression of the Mammoth Clan, so the elders of the clan will also specially teach the juniors not to make enemies and to communicate and cooperate. Therefore, Lambert sent someone to assassinate Monroe, and he didn't dare to let the rest of the Tiger Clan know about it, and now in addition to Zhao Yuan, the murderer, I am afraid that the only people who know the cause of his death are Mu Si and the Wolf King in the Wolf Clan's palace, and the red-haired werewolf.
Last time, the red-haired werewolf ran away with a teleportation scroll, if it weren't for Zhao Yuan's rush to save Monroe, I was afraid that he would have used the eighth-order spatial magic of the chaotic moment to pull him back on the spot. However, Monroe also inquired, and the magic scrolls for directional teleportation are very expensive, compared to the price of randomly teleported scrolls, which is not so unacceptable, although it is still very expensive. When the red-haired werewolf used the scroll, Zhao Yuan didn't feel the pull from the other end of the space, so nine times out of ten, the scroll they used was a random teleportation.
If they are lucky, they will only teleport to the vicinity of the wolf clan, and if they are unlucky, they will probably have to use the intercity teleportation circle to teleport back, after all, a mercenary prefers to do tasks in a place they are familiar with. But Zhao Yuan had already discussed with the Wolf King, and all the teleportation circles near the Wolf Clan would pay close attention to whether there was any trace of the red-haired werewolf, and once he appeared, he would face the pursuit of the Wolf Clan.
In fact, even if the Tiger Clan knew that Lambert's death was related to the Wolf Clan, there was nothing to worry about, who told Lambert to kill Monroe first. A tiger mage with a better talent killed the prince who was very likely to inherit the throne of the wolf king in the future, and was finally killed by a vendetta, which was completely deserved.
Zhao Yuan rode a purple wheel horse and rushed to a nearby town overnight, taking advantage of the night, he asked people to send an urgent email, which contained a sealed box and a short note, with only four words on it: Everyone is fine.
Then, his figure disappeared into the thick night and ran into the distance.
His next stop was the Elven Forest, located in the easternmost part of the Cold Beast Continent. After all, when you come to another world, how can you do if you don't see a beautiful elf.
Two days later, a dusty traveler came to the town of Kree, his face was pale and thin, but his figure was quite tall, and a dark robe on his body looked inconspicuous, but he did not have any orc features on his body, and he was leading a tall and sturdy purple wheeled horse, which still made passers-by look a few more times.
"This is a mage, it's really rare, there are still mages in a town like ours who will come!" said the aunt of the pig tribe in the animal skin shop on the side of the road with a surprised tone and whispered to the chinchilla woman on the side.
"Yes, I've seen mages twice in my life, and the last time was when the mercenary squad before I got married was injured and fled to our town. The chinchilla woman said.
"Hey, look at him, he has no tail and no ears, he can't be a Terran, right?" said the skinny old man who was listening to the two of them, and he also dragged a slender black-gray tail behind his back, and he was also a chinchilla. At this time, as he spoke, his small eyes narrowed into a slit were still staring at Zhao Yuan up and down.
"When you say that, it's true, this is a human race, no wonder, there are many human mages. Aunt Pig took a closer look at Zhao Yuan and found that there was indeed no opening behind his robe, and there were no ears on his head that belonged to orcs, and his skin was even fairer than a rare among orcs, so he couldn't help but be more sure of the old man's speculation.
"But, you see that kid is leading, isn't it the Purple Wheeled Horse?" the old man of the Chinchilla Clan suddenly glared at him, and said in a shocked tone.
"What, Purple Wheeled Horse? That's the best of the Wheeled Horses, and it's hard to find, you read that right!" both Aunt Pig and the Chinchilla Woman looked surprised.
The old man of the chinchilla stalked, "How could I admit my mistake, you forgot to ...... last time"
Zhao Yuan walked down the central street of Kree Town and heard the whispers of the people around him, but he didn't pay attention to it. This town is very ordinary, on the Cold Beast Continent, most of the towns are like this, the population is small, the materials are low, and there are few outsiders, this kind of town is mostly composed of some orcs who have little combat ability. It is completely different from the town of Red Snake Town, which is built on the prosperous commerce brought by the Dust Mist Forest.
And this so-called central street is only the width and narrowness of a horse-drawn carriage, and it is surrounded by all kinds of small shops selling basic items, and there are basically no shops selling duplicate items.
The reason why he came to this town was also because of an accident. Originally, he followed the map and galloped all the way to the east, but the little skin, who had always been coquettish and stupid in his pocket, suddenly began to chirp rapidly.
Zhao Yuan always thought that Xiaopi really couldn't fly, but that day Xiaopi really flapped its immature little wings and flew low, hovering for a while while flying, chirping to call this Zhao Yuan.
There was no way, Zhao Yuan had no choice but to follow Xiaopi to this town. This town is really simple and simple, at least Zhao Yuan, who has always lived in the city, is the first time to come to this kind of town, and the things around him do not make him feel fresh, but only make him feel that there is an old and boring atmosphere.
But Zhao Yuan is sure that there is something strange in this town, the moment he just stepped into the town, the little skin that had been screaming and flying suddenly rushed back into Zhao Yuan's pocket, Zhao Yuan pulled it hard, it didn't come out, and he didn't let a fart go.
Xiaopi has always been very spiritual, is this a sign that he is afraid? Since he is afraid, why do you want to bring him here? Zhao Yuan's various thoughts turned in his mind, but he couldn't think of any clue, so he had to lead the purple wheel horse and walk into this seemingly ordinary town.
[Boy, are you stupid, didn't you hear what those people said just now?] The old Xuanwu, who had been sleeping for a long time, woke up somehow, and opened his mouth to teach Zhao Yuan a lesson.
[I naturally heard it, is there anything wrong?] Zhao Yuan asked suspiciously in his heart.
[The people of this town rarely have the opportunity to see even mages and human races, so guess how they know about the valuable wheeled horses, and they also know the best purple wheeled horses among the wheeled horses?] Old Xuanwu said with hatred of iron and steel.
[Makes sense!] Zhao Yuan listened to Lao Xuanwu's words, and suddenly realized. He immediately turned his head and walked to Aunt Pig's hide shop in the surprised eyes of the roadside.
"Hello, Auntie, I'm a traveler from the Donghuan Continent, I happened to pass by here, can I ask if there is a place in this town where I can spend the night?" Zhao Yuan looked polite.
Aunt Zhu Qian looked at Zhao Yuan's young appearance that had not been deeply involved in the world, and she did not doubt it, she hurriedly said enthusiastically: "Young man, you have found the right person, my yard is the largest in the town, you can live with me tonight, and I won't charge you money, after all, it is rare for outsiders to come to our town." ”
Zhao Yuan smiled and nodded, thanking him again and again, but his heart sank, this aunt of the pig clan obviously said that she would not accept money, but the greed that flashed in her eyes was keenly captured by Zhao Yuan. Moreover, the surrounding chinchilla women and the old chinchilla man looked at Aunt Pig with a very envious and jealous look, as if she had something good for nothing.
As if noticing that Zhao Yuan was looking at them, the two people of the chinchilla clan gathered the look on their faces and showed a friendly and enthusiastic smile at Zhao Yuan. Zhao Yuan also pretended not to find anything, with a shy smile on his face that was harmless to humans and animals.
Then, Zhao Yuan was naturally beckoned by Aunt Zhu to go to her house. Along the way, Aunt Zhu Qian behaved no different from a hospitable host, if Zhao Yuan hadn't noticed their strange reaction at the beginning, maybe he would have believed her.
But Zhao Yuan still found through the mental power scan that Aunt Zhu took him to pick some small roads with few people to avoid Zhao Yuan being seen by others. However, along the way, it was inevitable to meet three people, namely two women from the chinchilla clan and a man from the pig clan.
These three groups of people all came up to greet Aunt Zhu Qian enthusiastically, and while talking, they looked at Zhao Yuan with the rest of their eyes. Seeing him wearing a mage's equipment, his eyes showed a relaxed expression.
You must know that in terms of lethality, the power of any mage of the same level will be greater than that of a martial artist of the same level, but in terms of self-preservation ability, the mage is lower than the martial artist I don't know how many grades. If the people of this town are afraid that strange travelers will harm them, they should be even more nervous when they see a mage. can see that they are all happy, and they obviously feel very relaxed.
Zhao Yuan also noticed that every time he met a group of people, Aunt Zhu's expression was ugly, and chatting with those people was also very perfunctory. Although they are all poor and remote, there is no reason for people who have a good life and have a bad life.
Unless there is something they want in that bad person, such as me, Zhao Yuan thought lazily.
