Chapter 62: The Trap (I)

In winter, the climate in the north became even harsher, and the gloomy sky made it extremely cold outside the carriage, and the bitter north wind whistled up dust. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Two carriages marched on the barren land under the escort of cavalry, and three barbarians followed behind the carriages, so that these barbarians who lived in the alpine region all year round felt a little cold.

Minn had been wondering what the words of the Berlandians meant in the morning.

Deliberately courting himself and Samiyah, had those mages made the people of Berland so frightened that they wanted to seek help from the Church?

Having dealt with evil mages before, Meen knew that those evil creatures were not only weird, but also harder than stones.

Before Charles spoke, Meen didn't even know that there was such a big hidden danger in the north.

It was already noon, and today they would have been on the road for a whole day, trying to reach Haina in the early hours of the to-morrow morning.

Since then, Nu Lin has been eager to try in front of Meen, hoping that Mien can teach him how to become strong, but Mien has always turned a blind eye to this little barbarian, and the young little barbarian is full of edges and corners in his heart, and he still needs time to polish it, besides, Mien is not a bad person, and decided to cultivate Loren because that boy is a genius, or that the young man's broken spiritual world makes Mien interested in cultivating him.

In contrast, Gurin is much more honest, always following his eldest brother, and will not always want to show his prowess to Mien or Sameer like his younger brother, hoping that someone will teach him a hand.

Lunch was still prepared by Delin, and to be honest, Mien didn't want to eat any more meaty food.

In the winter, it is also approaching the end of the year, and Mien walked all the way, except for their group, they couldn't even see half a living person on the road.

Delin held his lunch box, "Lord Minne, have you noticed that we are the only ones on the road all the way, and we can't see anyone else at all." ”

Mien took a sip of the broth, and he wasn't surprised by it, "It's so cold now, and it's almost the New Year, it's normal that there is no one else on the road. ”

"That's a little strange, every year at this time of year, there are more or less businessmen on my way to Haina to do business, and I go to Haina with some humans from the north every year, especially out of Lidni, there will definitely be no fewer merchants on the road, is it because I came too late this year?"

Will there be a lot of people in previous years?

Meen was also a first-time visitor, and didn't know much about the situation here, but it seemed a little strange to hear Delin say that.

When the highest council is held, countless nobles will come to Haina, and during this period, merchants from all over the world will also gather here, which is regarded as a large annual gathering.

After chatting with the barbarians for a while, Mien paid a little more attention, after all, he had told Charles earlier that those evil mages were now wandering around, and I hoped that this trip would go well.

Tell Samiyah about this matter, the female knight also attaches great importance to it, now is a sensitive time, all the city lords have left their own territory to go to Haina, if someone wants to make some small moves, it will definitely not be wrong to choose this time!

Maybe it's because Mien's bad luck has always been good, just now he was thinking about these things in the carriage, and a faint evil aura made Mien's expression change!

There was an evil mage passing by here!

The smell of death like rotten flesh was impressive!

"Stop!"

Meen hurriedly stepped out of the carriage and looked around, there was nothing to hide except the barren land and a few dead trees.

But Mien was not careless because of this, that evil aura could be felt even if it was diluted ten times more!

Mien stopped suddenly, and the cavalrymen looked at Mien standing outside the carriage and looking around left and right, their brows furrowed, and the cavalry chief dismounted and came to Mien, "My lord, why did you come down?" ”

Mien was silent for a while, and said solemnly, "Take your cavalry and check the surroundings, I suspect that an evil mage has been here just now, although the evil aura here is very faint, but I can feel it." ”

Evil Mage!

The cavalry commander's expression changed, and he immediately sent people to check around.

Samiyah also stepped out of the carriage, "Mien, what's wrong?"

"An evil mage passed by here not long ago. ”

Samiyah's expression sank, "If I'm not mistaken, there's a village not far ahead, if there's an evil mage passing by..."

"Not far ahead, there's a village about two hours away... Are the evil mages you are talking about the mysteries who can control corpses?"

As an experienced trader, Delin must be familiar with the area.

Mien looked at Delin very seriously, as if the spiritual power of the substance made Delin look at Mien's eyes a little dryly.

"Delin, are you sure?"

"My lord, I'm sure that most of the traders who come out of Lidney rest there, and I've been to that village many times. ”

At this time, the cavalry who had gone to explore the surroundings also returned, and not surprisingly, found nothing of value.

Do these evil people want to take advantage of this time to do something small?

"Go to the village now, I hope it's okay there. ”

Reflexively getting into the carriage, thinking of what Delin had said earlier, Mien seemed to smell a hint of conspiracy.

The convoy moved on, but the atmosphere was a little tense compared to what it had just been.

Half an hour later, the group came to the village that Delin was talking about, and there was a lot of smoke in it, and people came and went! There were even many children playing on the ground.

Seeing this scene, Mien frowned slightly, could it be that he was nervous about the evil mage now?

But it's okay, Meen is afraid that there are zombies and undead everywhere here, those evil mages will not tell you anything about human nature, and they can almost be eliminated from the scope of human beings with human souls as a source of nourishment and power.

Samiyah got out of the carriage, saw that there was peace all around, walked to the side of Meen, and whispered, "Mien, are you mistaken, if there was an evil mage passing by there just now, then he can only come to this village." ”

Meen touched his nose, "Perhaps, maybe the evil mage went somewhere else, but the remnants of spells in that place can't be wrong." ”

Samier told the cavalry to feed the horses, and here they needed to recuperate for a while, after all, they had to travel until late at night, and there would be no such good opportunity to rest.

In a few moments, the barbarians were chatting with a family, and Nulin even played a game of wrestling with a tall child, and a bunch of imps shouted and cheered around the two of them, these little villages were not like Lidney, and although the villagers were a little curious about the identity of the barbarians, they did not regard them as inferior.

The cavalry also bought some supplies to fill their stomachs at night.

Sameer gathered around a campfire with a cup of hot water in his hand, trying to warm up.

As for Mien, from the moment he entered this village, he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it, and the villagers looked at him with a strange look, but this Mien could only be attributed to the fact that they didn't like the nobles very much.

After a week of touring the village, Mien walked up to Samiyah, found a piece of wood to sit on, and took the hot water from Samiyah.

"See what?"

Meen shook his head, "It's quiet here, I haven't found any trace of the mage, but it's always right to be careful." ”

Delin also came over at this time, and talked to the simple villagers about wine, which made him very happy, and simply sat on the ground, "Why don't the two adults get some ale wine to drink?" The villagers here are very enthusiastic, when they came last year, how could there be so many people here, in one year, the population and scale of this village have increased several times, think about the fact that there were only a dozen families here before, it is really nostalgic!"

After a little drinking, Delin's disproportionate amount of alcohol to his stature made the barbarian less concerned about talking.

I had always thought that this village was a little strange before, but when Delin said this, Mien thought of the point!

If I'm not mistaken, there won't be more than twenty houses here, but this one...

Mien glanced at the enthusiastic villagers without a trace, not only the crowds! There were more than a hundred villagers! There were not even a dozen women and children, and the rest were all young and middle-aged! There was only one elderly person, the village chief!

How smart Mien is, thinking of that huge gang of horse bandits named Mannick, it all makes sense!
