Chapter 148: Female Thief
"Big brother, you are so powerful!" Throwing the banner of 'Wan Sheng' to Abagon, Hu Tao reached out to help Downton, tonight's battle made her feel honored, and her chest was high.
Looking at the back of Downton's departure, Dofphonk decided to promote him more in the future, give him more rights, and ensure that he could stay by his side.
Outside the mine, the miners had already received the news of Downton's victory, and the moment he came out, they collectively cheered.
Barnetta played for the tiger and helped Rahm do too many bad things that were very unpopular, and Downton killed him, which made the miners feel very happy.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way, the master is injured, and he wants to go back to recuperate!" Jackson dispersed the crowd very doggedly, in fact, even if it didn't speak, no one dared to block Downton's way, and they all obediently got out of the way, revealing a passageway.
GΓΆtze huddled in the crowd, looking at Downton's background, and his heart was full of praise.
Half a month ago, everyone was also a civilian, and they came to the dagger mine at the same time, but now, he has become an overseer, a hero who kills all sides, and has become the target of the earl's recruitment, and he still lives in that simple and dirty dormitory, bullied by a group of five big and three rough miners.
The thought of washing their clothes and washing their feet and backs after their work every day made him want to kill them while they were asleep.
"It's not the life I want, I'm going to a bigger city. Gotze cried out in his heart that he didn't want to marry a peasant woman who went to the countryside and stay in Lima for the rest of his life.
Abagun grabbed a handful of gambling tickets and ran to the sign to find someone to exchange them.
Despite being a lowly goblin, Abagun was Downton's slave, and the steward did not dare to embezzle his gambling tickets, and he still had a smile on his face. Huge bonuses were delivered.
"Hmph!" Abagorn was very proud, and walked away haughtily, feeling that it was time to make a fortune with a good master.
Back in the dormitory, Downton took off his clothes. Wash and bandage the wound.
Although the wound had been scarred under the healing of the divine magic, Hu Tao's tears still flowed out of his eyes when he looked at the terrifying injury that went from his shoulder to his thigh.
"Does it hurt?" Little Lori stretched out her index finger, wanting to touch it, but worried about hurting Downton.
"Go play, Arnold, take care of her!" Downton took the towel from the barbarian and wiped the blood off his body.
"This kind of work. Let Celes do it!" Homer urged, "you all leave, Downton needs to rest." β
"No, I'm going to stay with my brother. Hu Tao pursed his mouth, but Zuihou was persuaded by Downton to go out.
The one-week time limit was over, and Downton was able to enter the Great Library for another ten days, just in time to recuperate.
Celes couldn't help but weep when she saw Downton, who was pale from blood loss. Then carefully help him treat his wounds.
Despite the Banshee's clumsiness, the Banshee occasionally hurts Downton. But it's really nice to be cared for.
Under the bright sunlight that shone through the floor-to-ceiling windows and sprinkled on the desk, Downton dragged his chin with one hand, and did not rush to study, but summed up the lessons of this battle under Homer's supervision.
This is after Downton became a magician. The closest he was to death, even if it was against the Demon Spider Mother before, he had several spare jihua in case of emergencies.
"The battle against the Magician is a test of battle wisdom. Homer taught. "No matter how good the situation is, you can't be careless, especially if the opponent doesn't show his hole cards, and you have to be more careful. β
"Hmm!" Downton nodded, thinking back to the elemental blade, he still had palpitations, the soul talent of some magicians is too weird, it is too much to guard, if you are not careful, you will capsize in the gutter.
Downton knew that Ram would inevitably take revenge and that the following days would be troublesome, so for ten days, he did not forget to sleep and eat, but maintained a good schedule and concentrated on recuperating from his injuries.
By the time he walked out of the library, Downton's injuries were more than half healed.
The moonlight is pouring down, the shade of the trees is waving, and the dormitory area is so quiet that you can even hear crickets crawling.
"Nobody?, right?" Downton let out a long sigh of relief and sat down on the bed.
The Dark Fighting Tournament entered its second day, which was the most intense match, and naturally it was particularly eye-catching, even miners who were not interested would spend a few copper plates and gamble on it.
"Rest!" Homer was suspended in the air, just as he was about to land on the table with a projection of words, when a figure suddenly burst out from under the bed and reached out to grab it.
"Thief?" Downton's pupils shrank sharply, and then a cold sweat broke out, the other party hid under the bed, and he didn't even find out, if someone assassinated him, he would have been hit hard.
In an instant, mixed thoughts burst into his mind, but Downton quickly focused his mind, discarded the distractions, and let out a giant roar, trying to limit the thieves' movements.
The sound spread, and even the glass shattered, but the female thief's movements did not go out of shape, and she was still as fast as thunder, grabbing the magic book.
"Run, it's the war level!" Homer deduced her strength from the power of the female thief, and hurriedly projected a text to warn Downton.
Judging by her slender figure, she was a female thief, who was covered in leather armor and a mask, except for a pair of blue pendant earrings on her ears, which blinked abnormally in the moonlight.
How could Downton give up the Grimoire, sprint to intercept, draw the power of the troll, and slam the punch into the thief.
The female thief's body flashed, and she accelerated sharply, and after dodging Downton's attack, she caught up with the hovering and retreating Grimoire and reached out to grab it.
Just as the female thief was about to touch Homer, a dazzling white light suddenly erupted from the magic tome, illuminating the room white.
The female thief shouted that it was not good, and the sixth sense warned her, which made her subconsciously retreat and fall on the window.
Sure enough, in the next second, with the magic book as the center of the circle, a ball of flames burst open, forming a ring, spreading to all sides, and all the items that were touched did not burn, but directly turned into ashes.
Downton's eyes flashed, and he quickly turned on the soul shield.
In fact, there was no need, Homer's magic control was superb, and the flame wreath disappeared the moment it approached Downton.
The female thief wanted to grab it again, but a red magic array appeared in front of the magic book, and then a fire dragon roared out, opened its fangs and mouth, and bit her.
"Awesome!" the female thief flipped upside down and jumped.
Boom, the fire dragon broke through the window and chased straight down, zuihou crashed into the floor, blasting out a large crater with a radius of ten meters.
Downton held the shower in front of the tome, staring closely at the broken wall.
The Grimome Xiangshang released a coconut-sized Eye of the Abyss, and it shot out ten green beams of light, scanning the surroundings without dead ends.
"Be careful, she's not gone yet!"
Homer reminds.
"Hehe, boy, don't be nervous, I don't have any ill intentions. β
The female thief had apparently used some sort of concealment technique, and she was nowhere to be seen, but her voice was clear to Downton's ears.
"Then what are you doing at night?" Downton wanted to provoke his opponent and make her reveal his position, "Unfortunately, I'm not interested in the woman who delivered it to the door." β
"Boy, your mouth is very powerful, I wonder if the bird under your crotch can also satisfy a woman?" The female thief giggled, "Forget it, the movement is too loud, it is estimated that the patrol guards are coming soon, boy, listen well, Doshav hired the Iron Man bandits, and at the same time ordered Ramri to join forces with the outside world, to launch an armed riot tomorrow night, completely kill Dauponck and his men, clean up dissidents, destroy the evidence of his corruption, if you don't want to die, run away quickly!"
The sound was gone, but Downton was still careless, and he was relieved until Homer lifted the alarm.
"She's gone!"
Homer withdrew her eyes from the abyss and asked with concern, "Your face is so ugly, what's wrong?"
"It's not. Downton shook his head dejectedly, he couldn't help at all in the battle just now, if it weren't for Homer's means of self-preservation, he would have lost it.
"Is it a loss?" Homer comforted, "Don't care, she's a war level, you can't beat her, if you're not angry, then fight back next time, I have a hunch that she'll come back." β
"She's going to tell me this?" Downton frowned, "Who is she?"
"There are very few women working in the mines, and she must have followed the nobles in. "Homer's analytical skills are not bad either," listening to her tone, her personality is very frivolous. β
"She's in my room?" Downton mused, "Is she here to steal the weapon or yours?"
"No way, if I'm not mistaken, her blue earrings are a perfect level of magic jewelry, and the leather armor on her body is also a perfect level, and her net worth is much richer than yours. Homer dismissed Downton's speculation.
"Anyway, tell Dawphonk about it. Downton left the dormitory, and at the same time made up his mind that he should hurry up and cultivate, as long as he was promoted to the war rank, he would have the ability to protect himself.
On the roof of a dormitory building, the female thief stepped on the eaves and looked at Downton condescendingly, although the moonlight flowed all over the ground like mercury, but there was no trace of her shadow.
"I see, it's because of that magic book that you have the strength you have now!" The female thief actually came to tell Downton that Doshav was going to execute Jihua and asked him to warn Dawfink, but she didn't expect to bump into him returning from the Great Library, so the scene just happened.
Watching the patrol arrive, the female thief touched the blue earrings and disappeared into the roof.
"How's the injury?" After the next day's fight was over and the guests had arranged for supper, Dophonk returned to the villa and was a little surprised to see Downton waiting in his study.
"I got information from someone that Doshav is going to launch an armed attack on the mines tomorrow, kill us, erase all evidence, and burn everything to the ground. After a few pleasantries, Downton got straight to the point, telling Dauponck what the female thief had said, and of course, he exaggerated a little. (To be continued......)
