Looking at the White City in front of him, Cyril turned around and said a little strangely, "Harrow, don't you think there is a strange atmosphere?"

Harrow nodded in agreement, as the largest city in the eastern part of the United Kingdom, the amount of entry and exit from the city every day is quite large. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

But at this time, the number of troops at the gate of White City was five or six times greater than before, and three squads of barbarians stood by the gate, and they were constantly looking around, and the city wall was also three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry.

It was useless to stand outside and think too much, so Cyril took a step and walked towards the city gate.

Due to the high daily traffic of people, there are not many introductory check-ups in White City.

If you are a civilian, you will also need to ask about your intentions and check your identification, but if you are a professional, you will usually only need to look at your identification.

However, today, after checking the proof of identity, the tall barbarian led by him set his eyes on Cyril and asked, "What was the purpose of the last time you two went out?"

"Huh?" Cyril was stunned for a moment, then replied, "The last time we went out to gather materials, I was an adventurer, escorting this lady to collect materials in the Frost Forest. ”

Later, at the request of the barbarian soldiers, the two showed the materials they had gathered, and Cyril showed his adventurer badge before being put inside.

"Could it be that war is about to start?" said Cyril, hesitantly, after all, this extreme state of security was very reminiscent of that.

Thinking of this, Cyril couldn't help but start worrying about Little Red Riding Hood, and he didn't know which direction Little Red Riding Hood was going, and what to do if he ran into an army in the field.

Stretched out his hand and shook it in front of Cyril's eyes, and after seeing him come back to his senses, Helo said a little angrily: "What are you thinking?

“...... Well, Harrow, what did you just say?" asked Cyril, a little embarrassed.

"I said, don't think about those questions yet, let's go to my shop first, and I'll get you some potions. Although I have already taken some medicines, the sequelae seem to be very serious, so it is better to have another examination for the safety of your body. ”

It would also be nice to be able to spend some time with Hrodo, so he nodded decisively, and the question of war had been put behind him.

The atmosphere on the streets is slightly better than outside the city, but if you look closely, you can see that both the professionals walking in a hurry on the streets and the vendors on both sides of the street have very solemn expressions.

"Drink this first, and then I'll need to observe the situation before I make a decision. Cyril was handed a bottle of bubbling dark brown liquid, Hero said.

As soon as I put the dark brown liquid to my mouth, the pungent, disgusting smell came up.

However, after seeing Helo's encouraging gaze, Cyril took a deep breath and drank the dark brown liquid with a clatter.

The liquid had a very strong garlic flavor and was so sticky that Cyril almost threw it up several times.

However, the bitter words of the medicine are really true, after drinking the potion, Cyril can clearly feel that the head that was still slightly painful is no longer painful at this time, and the dizziness caused by the slight magic poisoning is also healed at this time.

"It seems to work well, so there's no need to drink this. Helo shook the bottle in his hand and said with some relief.

Looking at the bottle of dark purple liquid in Helo's hand, and the hideous ghostly faces that appeared from time to time, Cyril showed a stiff smile and said, "Yes, that's great." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a wave of fatigue rush over him, and the scenery in front of him was slightly blurred, as if the huge sleepiness could knock him down at any time.

"Ah...... Isn't it a little sleepy? The side effect of this potion is that it can make people sleepy. If you don't mind, just take a break in the back first, and don't rush the task anyway. ”

After hearing Helo's words, Cyril, who was already a little delirious, nodded, and then he was taken to the back room by Helo in a groggy state, and fell asleep on the bed.

The sleeping Cyril was less flamboyant and shy, and more steady, and after standing beside the bed and covering him with a blanket, Harrow sighed slightly helplessly.

"You're really persevering......"

Looking at Cyril's sleeping appearance, Harrow remembered the conversation between the two of them in the canyon again......

"Harrow, do you have anyone you like?" Cyril's face turned slightly embarrassed after asking the question.

Helo, who was still collecting materials, stiffened and maintained his current posture, and Helo said without looking back: "Why do you ask such a question?"

As soon as the words came out, Harrow wanted to strangle herself, Cyril's intention to ask the question was obvious, and the atmosphere between the two was already very awkward, and the atmosphere was even more awkward after she said this.

In order not to let this awkward atmosphere continue, after the rhetorical question, Harrow did not pause for a second, and continued: "But if you want to know, I can tell you the answer. ”

Cyril took a deep breath, then nervously waited for Harrow's answer.

"I ...... There are people you like. Harrow's voice was still pleasant, but when it reached Cyril's ears, it made him feel unusually harsh.

Cyril's face froze when he heard this answer, and he paused for several seconds before letting out a series of stiff laughs, and then said with some embarrassment: "Yes, too...... Hurry up and collect materials!"

Turning her face slightly, Herro looked at Cyril's stiff face and movements, and although she felt a little apologetic, Herro still didn't intend to explain anything or comfort Cyril.

Originally, Harrow thought that Cyril would stay away from him because of this incident, but he didn't expect that after only an hour, he would return to his normal appearance.

His thoughts gradually retracted, looking at Cyril who was sleeping soundly, Helo shook his head and thought: "I'm sorry, the virtuous wolf can't be with anyone else, and he is destined to be alone for the rest of his life......"

"Lord Morakot, the task of assembling adventurers is still ongoing, and at this time there are more than 8,000 adventurers who have accepted the task of defending the city, but there are no upper three professionals. Lyles looked at the paper in his hand, and reported.

Morakot, who was sitting behind the desk, kept tapping his forehead, the situation was much more urgent than he thought, counting the urgent recruitment of 8,000 professionals, and the number of soldiers available in the city at this time was no more than 20,000.

"Go and call Astarrot over. Turning his head, Morakot commanded the attendant standing beside him.

Pushing open the door was a tall figure shrouded in black robes, with a strange mask on his face.

The mask covered almost the entire face of Astaroth, and the only thing that showed was his strange pupils.

Astaroth's pupils were golden, but his pupils were not round like most creatures, nor like the vertical pupils of dragons, but flattened, frog-like horizontal pupils.

A little hoarse, but a voice came from under the mask: "What is the matter with the city lord calling me over?"

At this time, Lyles, who was standing aside waiting for orders, stared at Astarrot with a very wary gaze.

The mysterious man named Astarrot was rescued by the lord six years ago and has sworn allegiance to him ever since.

But because of his radical style and his inexplicable strange magic, Lyles has never had a good impression of him.

Morakot tapped the table with a quill and said, "They have already informed you before, a Warcraft army has appeared in the Frost Forest, and it is attacking this side at a very fast speed. ”

Nodding, Astarot's voice still didn't fluctuate in the slightest: "So, what does the city lord want me to do?"

"I wonder if there is a way for you to quickly add a batch of combat power to our army? Although 30,000 Warcraft legions are not enough to make us panic, the Frost Forest and the surrounding area are inhabited by hundreds of thousands of Warcraft. If they do, it's not something that can be easily solved. ”

Saying this, Morakot didn't have much hope, after all, it was a bit unbelievable to conjure an army out of thin air.

But unexpectedly, Astarrot nodded easily, and then replied, "Lord of the City, if it's just this question, I can really help somewhat. ”

Speaking of this, Astarrot paused, then he glanced at Lyles slightly, and continued: "But this method may be a little unacceptable to General Lyles, why don't you ask General Lyles to retire first?"

Lyles gritted his teeth and took a step forward, and said loudly: "Don't joke, if there is a way, say it quickly, at this time, the war is urgent, and you can't be allowed to joke here." ”

"Since General Lyles thinks so too, then I won't say much, this method is very simple, but it comes at a cost. ”

Seeing that Lyles's handsome face had a hint of anger again, Morakot waved his hand as if he was a peacemaker, and then said with some urging: "Okay, Astarot, you don't want to sell it, just tell me your method quickly!"

Keeping his voice unhurried, Astarot said, "If you want to conjure an army out of thin air, the best way to do it...... It's a sacrifice!" (To be continued.) )
