Chapter 339: Orphan Selt

"Hey, look, that stinky boy is there!"

When the unknown imp was about to ask Lin Qiu to discuss more deeply what a powerful knight was, a group of uninvited guests interrupted this philosophical conversation. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info a few strong men carrying wine bottles and wearing leather armor were furious, and rushed towards him violently with wine bottles from afar.

The coat of arms on the leather armor indicates that these people are members of the Adventurer's Guild.

As soon as the little ghost saw the strong man who had come to ask the teacher for his guilt, he screamed strangely, and ran into the nearby alley, and after a few seconds, he was never seen again. This dramatic scene made Lin Qiu stunned for a moment, and the three or two big men were reluctant to give up, and chased after them in the next step, leaving only a plump middle-aged man with a sledgehammer and a big mouthful of rough clothes not far from Lin Qiu and the others.

He clearly hadn't developed the strength to harness the hammer.

"You're also knights......" The plump man took a breath for a while before he took the initiative to come forward and talk to Lin Qiu and the others.

Few well-known knights are willing to come to the town, and the adventurers' guild is mostly made up of young and strong local men, and more often than not, they make cameo appearances as town guards. They didn't know many famous knights, and although they knew that the current president of the guild was Lilith during the knight introductory training course organized by the guild, no one had ever seen her in person.

Therefore, he could only infer from Lin Qiu and the others' swords, clothing, etc., that these foreign knights were extraordinary: "I saw that stinky boy talking to you, he must be questioning the identity of your knights again, right?"

As soon as the other party was mentioned, the plump man looked angry: "Don't believe a word of his words, he is a habitual offender." If you talk to him, he'll let you explore the Twilight Farm, and many of the foreign knights have fallen for him...... By the way, it looks like you're looking for a hotel, let's talk as we go. ”

The plump man was very enthusiastic, and without saying anything, he took Lin Qiu and the others to the hotel near the Adventurer's Guild.

Since most of the guild were locals, and only a few adventurers who traveled far passed through this place to resupply here, the inn was not as lively as Lin Qiu imagined, and the adventurers were slightly drunk and made up dangerous hunts that they had never experienced at all.

Seeing the plump man walk into the door, several strong men waved at him enthusiastically, and quickly devoted themselves to their braggadocio again.

This feeling of not knowing anyone made Lin Qiu and the others more relaxed, the plump man greeted him, and the bartender brought a few bottles of spirits. His name is Eli, and he is a native of the town: "You'll really want to try our roast suckling pig in a moment...... I work in the Adventurer's Guild, but I'm too weak, so most of the jobs assigned to me are guides. ”

Eli is not ashamed in the slightest, and the town also has the benefits of the town. There is almost no intrigue here, and most of the adventurers are generations of friends, and they are friends from childhood to adulthood, so even if his hammer is useless except to bluff, the other adventurers do not look down on him. In addition, Eli is very kind-hearted, has a good popularity, and is also very handy in entertaining foreign knights.

"What's the origin of that little boy?" asked Helena.

"You say, Selter, he's an orphan. His parents were outsiders, but they had a bit of a quirky personality and didn't get along with the people of the town, so it didn't take long for them to move out and set up a farm in the northwest of the town...... Some of them had already objected when they left, and no one could guarantee that there was any danger in the depths of the forest, but they still insisted on walking alone. It didn't take long for something to happen on their farm. ”

"Is that the twilight farm you just said?" Lin Qiu asked as he remembered Eli's previous words.

"That's right...... But this fact is somewhat evil. Eli looked around suspiciously, her bloated body trying to lean forward, and lowered her voice: "Celt's parents died, but he miraculously survived...... He said that the farm had been attacked by monsters, but when the adventurers of the town rushed over to hear the news, they did not find any monsters. Even stranger is that the farm was charred by fire...... It looked like someone had deliberately lit a fire while they were sleeping. ”

Eli took a sip of the liquor and wiped the corners of his mouth with a big grin, but the more he spoke, "At first, the people of the town sympathized with Celt and arranged for him to live, but he still insisted that he saw the monster attack their manor that evening...... At first, the people of the town were very cautious, and searched the area around the twilight farm, but they found nothing except the gray wolf, which is a ubiquitous monster, and even once we ambushed the farm before dark, and kept watch all night, but still found nothing. So there is more and more speculation that Celt is lying...... A few people also said that it was Selt's father, who was drunk and accidentally set the farm on fire—forgetting that his father was an alcoholic, and even when he moved out of town, I occasionally ran into him coming to the hotel to buy alcohol. ”

But this statement was obviously unacceptable to Celter, and he gradually lost faith in the Adventurers' Guild, so he began to encourage some unsuspecting knights to help him investigate, but the forest was dangerous to outsiders, and many of the adventurers he instigated were lost, and some even went further north into the forest - it is said that there were traces of B-class monsters there, and two or three adventurers never returned...... The Adventurer's Guild found out about this and warned Celt, but the stinky boy ...... The next night he poured laxatives in the vats, and we had diarrhea for days! After doing this, he fled, and some speculated that he must have returned to the twilight farm, but everyone was too lazy to look for him again, and everyone agreed to let him fend for himself, but he didn't expect to sneak back to this day!"

"It turned out to be just an unwilling little ghost. Helena took a boring sip of the spirits in her glass, her ruddy and shiny lips leaving the adventurers at the nearby tables disappointed. Since joining the Senate, she has rarely left the imperial capital, and she still thinks that there will be some strange things in this kind of town.

In fact, neither the actual monsters nor the townspeople's guesses that Selt's father had accidentally burned down the farmstead were enough to interest her.

Hundreds of residents and merchants die at the hands of monsters every day, and this is not news.

"Did Naselt describe what that monster looked like?" asked Lilith, out of a sense of responsibility to her guild. With her vast knowledge of monsters, she could roughly deduce whether it was Celt's fantasy or a real monster by listening to the description of the monster.

"This young lady, you are laughing. ”

Eli smiled kindly: "Celt said that before the farm burned down, he saw a giant bird about ten meters long and surrounded by flames - you say, how can there be such a monster in this world?"
