Chapter 31: Initiation
Hucks' face was now wonderful.
Before that, he had never thought that Rocky would have the wisdom that needed his use of this day, if it wasn't for the wrong occasion and time, he really wanted to say "I'm sorry, I'm just a stupid human!"
Once upon a time, Rocky more than once gave his performance of intelligence the name "clever" with a strong contempt, which made him ashamed and embarrassed more than once.
But today, under the threat of the temple's forces, Rocky said that he would rely on his wisdom to break the siege, which made Hax feel extremely relieved.
Of course, I really wanted Harx to come up with a good solution in a short time, but Rocky overestimated his intelligence.
Although mages are a group of highly intelligent creatures, their wisdom is mainly used for spell research and exploration, and most of them are not much better than warriors in terms of strategy.
The best at this will always be thieves, priests, army staff officers, and other professionals.
Until the sound of the Temple warriors knocking on the door from far away on the street where the courtyard was located, Rocky did not get the slightest useful advice from the frowning Hax.
The corners of his eyes jumped, and he said to the mage with a heavy face, "Can't wait, Hucks, you're the only one taking some risks now." ”
Hax's face changed, and he looked at Rocky with a wary face and asked, "Your Excellency Rocky, what do you mean by that?"
"The reason why the people of the temple came here to search must be because of the aura that I accidentally leaked last night, and now only if you go somewhere else to spread the evil aura can you lure them away, as long as you survive today, I am not in danger of being exposed." ”
After Rocky finished speaking, he didn't give the pale Hax a chance to object, and immediately threw out another condition that he had to accept: "As long as you complete this mission, the contract will automatically expire from tomorrow, and you don't have to come back here." ”
Hax's heart was moved, since signing that contract, his biggest dream was to get rid of this fearful black dragon servant as soon as possible, and now it was rare for Rocky to take the initiative to let go, how could he refuse this opportunity.
He only hesitated for a moment, then nodded to Rocky with determination, and at the same time did not forget to ask, "But Lord Rocky, how can I spread the evil aura?"
"Here is the dragon blood I shed last night, the curse power in the dragon blood has not completely dissipated, you take this dragon blood to the slums, find some beggars and gangsters to give them to eat, and then you pretend to be a passing mage to inform the temple priests that there are demons in the slums!"
After saying these creepy words to Hax, Rocky waved his hand and took the barrel containing the cursed dragon's blood out of the space bag.
Looking at the half of the barrel of cursed dragon blood that Rocky took out on the ground, Hux didn't put it away immediately, his face still retained the look of horror that he had just heard Rocky's words, and he obviously hadn't recovered from Rocky's vicious plan.
Seeing this, Rocky's eyes sank, and he angrily complained to the mage with a look of annoyance: "What are you still doing in a daze? Do you want to be burned at the stake?"
The three words "burn at the stake" instantly brought Hax back to his senses from his stunned state, he only hesitated slightly, then put away the wooden barrel on the ground without saying a word, and then looked at Rocky with an indescribable look and said: "Your Excellency Rocky, I hope you remember the promise you made just now." ”
......
It's dark.
Tonight's Blackwater City is not destined to be a night of restful sleep.
During the day, the search of the evil aura in the civilian area led by the Temple of the Lord of Radiance was only halfway through the process and was disturbed by the sudden outbreak of the "Demon Incident" on the side of the slums, which was obviously more important than finding the owner of the evil aura who did not know where to hide, and eliminating the demons that were ravaging the slums.
Although those demons who had just been demonized were quickly wiped out by the powerful temple personnel, the chaos and suspicion caused by these demons were not so easy to quell.
All kinds of gossip spread among the nobles and commoners, and even in the dark of night, the discussion about it did not completely cease.
In a certain aristocratic mansion in the city, some small and medium-sized nobles took the opportunity of a dinner party to get together and discuss what happened during the day.
"According to my nephew, those demons have a pair of wide dragon wings and can spit out acid like dragon breath, and the priests of the Temple of Radiance suspect that they have been demonized by some abyssal dragon. ”
The person who said this was a middle-aged nobleman with a fat head and big ears, and when he spoke, his face was full of pride.
However, before he could be proud of his "well-informed" news, another middle-aged nobleman with a thin figure sneered: "Snort, your news is lagging behind, the latest news I heard is that there is an abyss demon dragon in Blackwater City that has turned into a human form and traveled through our human world, and those demons were demonized only after offending the demon dragon." ”
Quiet!
As soon as the emaciated nobleman's words were finished, the whole room fell into a deathly silence, and everyone was shocked by the news of the emaciated noble, and even the obese middle-aged nobleman who was ridiculed had no intention of fighting back.
After a while, an old man in fancy clothes sighed and broke the silence: "Hey, no matter how the demon appeared, if this kind of thing happens, I'm afraid that there will be a lot of trouble in the city for a while, I hope it won't affect our industry!"
Rumble!
Less than three seconds after the old man's words fell, before the other nobles could speak, a shrill sonic boom roared from a civilian area somewhere in the city.
In this silent night, the spell fluctuations and sounds caused by the sonic boom of the Five Rings spell were enough to easily spread throughout the city, so that all the professionals and most of the ordinary people in the city could feel what was happening here.
And while most people were still thinking about what was going on, a shocking shout suddenly sounded in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion in Blackwater City: "Who dares to be presumptuous in Blackwater City?"
Then, a suffocating aura of terror quickly moved from the direction of the City Lord's Mansion towards the civilian area.
At the same time, in the temples of the gods located all over the city, there were also dozens of powerful auras that were alarmed and rushed to the civilian area.
There is no doubt that the only person who is in the civilian area at this time and can unleash the five-ring spell sonic boom is Rocky, who has just obtained a sonic boom scroll.
And at this moment, in the courtyard where he was, the lizardman golden knight Doni and ten silver warriors all looked at the empty courtyard in front of them in a daze with extremely ugly faces.
