Chapter 32: There Are Werewolves in the Mage Tower?
All four of them looked nervously towards the door, where a guard was standing at the door of the stable, watching them warily. Barred looked at the guards, always feeling that something was wrong, but couldn't figure it out for a moment.
Ilsutia walked over slowly, her remarkable gait evousive, and she walked up to the guard, holding out her finger and poking her opponent's chest. "We just want to go out and blow the cool evening breeze, and the Mage Tower doesn't have a curfew, right?"
The guard swallowed. "No, but how did you get in? I stood at the gate, and I didn't see anyone coming out of there, and no one passed me. ”
Ilsutea smiled charmingly. "You must have dozed off and didn't notice, I advise you to go back to sleep. ”
The guard hesitated, and suddenly Lucius appeared behind him and punched him in the head, to everyone's surprise, the guard did not fall, but looked back at Lucius in confusion. "What's going on?" Lucius' eyes widened, and he raised his hand to deliver another punch, which the guard easily catched.
Barred realized that there must be something wrong with the guard, and he wanted to shout to warn Lucius and Ilsutia, but he was afraid that the noise would be too loud to attract the attention of others, but Ilsutia also noticed that something was wrong, because Lucius's face became more and more distorted, as if he was about to lose his support.
A strong gust of wind blew through the guard's arm, and the guard let go of Lucius in pain, and Ilsutia swung her hands forward, and the strong wind blew the guard out of the stable, crossing the arc and falling to the ground.
Lucius moved his fingers, his mouth still swearing. "Hell, his strength is amazing. ”
"He's a little out of order, quick, let's get on the horse!" Ilsutia ran toward his mount, and Lucius hurriedly followed.
Barred led the horses to the door, while still thinking about what was wrong, Adeline's ball of light was left behind by them, and the front suddenly darkened, Adeline waved her hand, and the ball of light followed, and Bared's brain suddenly felt a thrill. "I see, I know there's something wrong with that guy. ”
"What?" Lucius and Ilsuthia rode over.
"The guard didn't bring a torch or an oil lamp, and if he had come to check on the stables, how could he not have brought a light?" Barred pointed to the ball of light.
"Indeed, isn't he here to check?" Adeline looked out of the stable, puzzled. "And what is he here for?"
Barred thought of the confrontation between the guard and Lucius just now, Lucius's strength was definitely one of the best, that guard was so unimpressive but completely suppressed Lucius in terms of strength, and an idea formed in his mind. "No, he's here to check on the stable, but he doesn't need a torch to see it. ”
"How is that possible? No one can see the situation in the stables in the darkness. Ilsutia questioned.
"Of course it's possible. Bared's left hand rested on the hilt of his sword. "He's not a normal person, he's ......"
As if to prove Bared's guess right, the guard reappeared at the stable's door, but this time, everyone gasped, because the guard was not standing in the doorway, but on all fours, ready to charge.
Ilsutia had never seen a werewolf before, and the sight in front of her made her stay on horseback, and the werewolf kicked his legs hard and pounced on Lucius and Ilsutia. Lucius was quick and pushed Ilsutia off his horse, drawing his sword to his chest. The werewolf's claws clasped tightly to the hilt of his sword, and the force of the impact knocked Lucius off his horse, and the two of them flew backwards together more than ten yards before slamming heavily to the ground. Lucius landed on his back, only to feel a tightness in his chest, and a stream of blood spurted out of his mouth, and the werewolf shook his head, dodging the splattered blood. Even at this moment, Lucius's brain was still clear, and taking advantage of this gap, he raised his right foot and kicked the werewolf hard in the stomach, and the werewolf was kicked out by him, and he flipped over two heels and stood firmly on the ground.
Barred had already run over and picked up Lucius. "How?"
Lucius opened his mouth to answer, but coughed one after another, unable to speak, and Barred pushed him behind him and shouted loudly to the two mages, "Treat him, I'll hold him back!"
Ilsutia quickly ran to Bared's side, holding a wand in her hand at some point. "I'd like to see what's so special about werewolves. ”
"Why you? You should go and heal Lucius, he was injured to protect you. "Barred expected Adeline to come and fight alongside him.
"Adeline's healing spells are stronger than mine. "Three flames appeared in Ilsutya's hands. "Ready!"
Barred felt a wave of consciousness burrow into his brain, and Ilsutia didn't tell him what he was going to do next, but the consciousness told him everything, and Bared's brain automatically fed back information to Ilsutia.
Three flames flew towards the werewolf one after another, and there was only a half-second difference between each of them, and the flames changed from small to large during the flight, and when they reached the werewolf, they almost became the size of a person. As the second flame flew out, Barred heard a clear command. "It's now!" Barred rushed forward without hesitation, and as the werewolf dodged the third flame, his sword reached the werewolf's door. The werewolf was tired of dodging the flames, completely unaware of the mercenary's imminent attack, and had no power to fight back, but the sword stopped in front of him.
"Bared, what are you doing, kill him or we'll all die!" Ilsutia shouted from behind him.
Barred stared sternly at the werewolf in front of him, and the werewolf's eyes showed fear. "No, no, he's a human being, too! I can't!"
"You idiot!" Ilsutia shouted behind her, but she didn't dare to continue casting fire magic for fear of injuring Bared.
The previous fire magic had ignited the haystack in the stable, and the fire was getting bigger and bigger. Lucius and Adeline mounted their horses and shouted to Bared, "Get out of here!"
Ilsutia cursed, reflexively ran towards Lucius, and after a few steps, his body flew up and sat down behind Lucius.
Lucius turned his horse's head and aimed it at the stall's exit, but his head was still on Bared. "What are you still doing, Bared, kill or release, fuck me over!"
A pulsing fire reflected in Barreid's pupils. "I know you're human, so I'm not going to kill you, and if you still have a shred of humanity, don't chase us. ”
The werewolf grinned at the mercenary, his mouth snorting, he was now standing on two feet, his upper body was lying on his back, and his hands had turned into sharp claws, which could slice Barrede's body in one stroke.
Lucius was already going crazy. "Bared, I'll say it one last time, if you don't fucking come again, I'll marry Adeline and Ilsutia!"
Barred didn't hesitate any longer, turned and ran towards Adeline, the entire stables were already lit by the firelight, and there was no need for a light ball to illuminate it. There was a shout from outside the stable, and the guards were already close at hand, and Lucius slapped Adeline's mount on the buttocks, then clamped his legs hard, and the two horses ran towards the stable.
"Barred, he's ......" Adeline was about to wait for Barred to mount before driving the mount, but she didn't expect Lucius to come so suddenly, and she had to hold on to the reins to keep herself from falling backwards.
Lucius had already run to the front. "It's okay, that guy can catch up. ”
Adeline looked behind her, where Barred was running desperately behind, and tears of anxiety flowed from Adeline's eyes as the horses grew faster and faster. "Hurry, Bared, hurry!"
At the last moment, Barred finally caught up with the horse, and the mercenary grabbed the saddle on the other side with his right hand around the horse's back, and grabbed Adeline's outstretched hand with his left hand, and jumped on the horse's back with both hands. He then took the reins from Adeline and directed his mount to charge forward as fast as he could.
Ahead, Ilsutia's fire and wind magic scattered all the guards who rushed over, and Lucius rushed out of the gate of the mage tower with a whip. With Lucius and Ilsutia leading the way, Bared was much more relaxed and ran out of range of the mage tower with his companions. The two horses galloped through the streets of Lot, the shouts behind them getting softer and softer, and Adeline looked behind her, where the stables were already on fire, illuminating the dark sky.
