Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Bone Rat
"Where the hell is that damn rat hiding?" said two pale-faced men sitting opposite each other by the fireplace in an ordinary fisherman's house.
The flame in the fireplace burned quietly, but the temperature in the room was strangely cold, without a trace of flame warmth.
The flames in the fireplace were a strange dark green color, and through the burning flames, it was vaguely visible that the burning material was not ordinary wood at all, but three charred humanoid corpses, two large and one small, which were originally a family of three who lived in this house, and a wail that ordinary people could not hear echoed in the fireplace, it was the cry of soul pain.
The green flame had been burning for five days.
The man by the window slowly plunged his pale right hand into the flames, the burning flames licking his fingers, but there was not the slightest burn on them, and in the depths of the flames, three fearful faces lingered on his fingertips, as if they were pleading, as if they were crying.
"Wait a little longer, that little guy named Ron is not simple, in fact every apprentice of Elvis is not simple, since he chose to escape from the Tower of Nightmares, he must have his hole cards, not just twisted prophecy. ”
"If you don't want to stay here forever, it's better to learn to be patient, patience is a virtue. ”
"But we've been waiting for five days, and when is it going to be, even though the python was prophesied to appear here, but right now, we don't even see the shadow of the snake, and who can guarantee that Ron will be with the snake." ”
"You didn't see the snake, and that's because you weren't careful. The man's right hand shook suddenly, and the flames of the fireplace suddenly rushed into his palm, then swirled and condensed in his palm, and finally turned into a thumb-sized green bead.
A white mouse suddenly broke out of the ground, climbed on the man's shoulder, and made a sound in its ear, which was the sound of white bones rubbing, and this little mouse was a white bone mouse without the slightest flesh and blood.
When the other person saw the appearance of this mouse, he was immediately shocked, and he looked at the bone rat with blazing eyes, and his breathing became rapid.
The other listened intently to the whisper of the Bone Mouse, and after half a sound, he said slowly, "It's coming, get ready." ”
The two stood up and looked at each other, and then their bodies shrank rapidly, until the black robes they had been wearing fell to the ground flutteringly, and the two disappeared.
If someone lifts the black robe on the ground, they will find that there are two deep rat holes under the ground covered by the black robe.
An imperceptible shadow quickly approached Brador, and with it a gloomy coldness, it was Marais, who had returned from the trade.
Ron deliberately added a considerable amount of shadow cores to the list of each transaction, for Marais, this stone containing the power of rich shadows is simply a dream delicacy, and after every meal, the feeling of power surging in his body makes Marais even more intoxicated.
So every time he returned, Marais would seem a little hurried, because Ron told him that he could only eat in the hole at the bottom of the sea.
Marais, hurrying along, did not notice that the Brado was a little more deserted than usual, so that as it passed by the beach, a small fragment of bone stuck to its scales, and remained unaware.
Marais just stayed at the broken bones and went into the ocean.
On the beach, two inconspicuous little bumps suddenly emerged from the soft sea sand, as if two small gravel were buried under the sea sand, struggling to emerge in the beach.
But after Marais's slender figure disappeared from view, the two tiny bulges finally shook off the hidden sea sand and stood on the beach.
Those were two rats made entirely of white bones.
The two mice stood side by side on the beach, looking at the undulating sea, as if they saw the secrets hidden in the ocean.
Behind them, the town of Brado fell into a dead silence, the sound of rustling ringing from every fisherman's house, and then soon fell into silence again.
Then the bright red rats came from all directions, and when they got closer, they saw that they were still white-boned rats, and the reason why they were bright red was because their bodies were covered with blood, which was the blood of Brador.
After the Bone Rat, Brado became a dead town.
The Bone Rats were piled up on the seashore, and soon formed two figures, and finally two sleek figures stood on the shore in such a way.
"He hid in the sea of despair. One of the men sensed that Marais had stopped moving, apparently returning to the stronghold where he had stayed.
"It's too dangerous in the sea of despair, maybe we should report it. ”
"Report the news?" the other man furrowed, clearly disagreeing with his proposal, "Hatina, you are getting less and less courageous, and don't forget that the Sea of Despair's malice is aimed at the official wizards, not apprentices like us. ”
"By reporting this news, all we can get is a paltry magic crystal, and by capturing Ron alive, we will get the light of wisdom, which will allow us to advance to the wisdom of a full-fledged wizard. ”
"In order to gain the light of wisdom, I am willing to conquer this insignificant danger. ”
Hartina was lost in thought, pondering the pros and cons of both, a difficult choice to decide.
Although his intellect told him that he should stay away from the sea of despair, from this place where the glory of wizards could not be enveloped, the presence of the light of wisdom was also eroding his sanity.
Few wizard apprentices could resist the temptation of the light of wisdom, and after a moment of contemplation, Hartina finally nodded.
"Is the Blood Sacrifice ready?"
Hartina took a deep breath as she looked in the direction of Marais.
"It's ready and I'm sure we're going to surprise that little guy, an unexpected surprise. ”
A bone rat appeared in the palm of Hatina's hand, and it opened its mouth to spit out a small potion.
The potion emitted a gray haze, and when you look closely, it looks like a slowly swirling mist.
Hartina opened the bottle of the potion with some pain, poured the half-tube of reagent into his mouth, and then handed him the remaining half of the reagent.
"Five hundred magic crystals. ”
"No problem, the ash potion is worth the price. The other laughed and drank the potion.
Then the two of them turned into a large group of bone rats and swam away in the direction of Marais.
