"Stop!" a majestic voice suddenly appeared on the hillside, "Jerry, what are you doing with a knife to Your Highness?"

Jerry couldn't laugh or cry, and when he tried to explain, he was already caught under the ribs of the Golden Knight, and the Roman long knife in his hand didn't know when it had fallen to the ground. If Jerry, the Silver Knight, still has the confidence to resist, after a full two ranks difference, Jerry was caught by Old Bill like a little chicken. Caught without resistance.

"Who are you?" Old Bill quickly noticed the anomaly, after all, the fraudster mask can only change a person's appearance, like body shape and temperament cannot be changed at all, Merlin is a real man after all, and the person in the gray cloak in front of him is a woman no matter how you look at it.

"Barbara," the caster sighed, "Second Ring Caster, Barbara." “

"You're from the Apocalypse Academy?" asked Old Bill.

"Yes," Barbara smiled, "my lord, I'm going to apply for a favor, and someone will pay the ransom for me, I promise." “

Old Bill's big hand waved, Barbara felt a cold on her face, she was secretly surprised in her heart, is the gap between the golden knight and ordinary people so big, you can remove the mask with a wave of your hand, you must know that in normal times, even if you want to get it down, it will take a lot of effort.

"Mesmer, that old witch isn't dead yet?" Old Bill said this, and the man was stunned, as if he was caught in an endless memory. I don't know how much time has passed, but the two young people beside him don't dare to move. Just now, the gray-haired old goth beside him exuded a huge intimidation like a fierce beast, suppressing the two people to death.

"Sorry to scare you. Old Bill finally regained his normal composure, "I, the Golden Knight, am also an impostor. There was a rare tenderness on Old Bill's face, but it lasted for a short time, and if you didn't look closely, you might not even be able to notice it.

"For the sake of my old friend's sake, I'll spare you," a strong right hand grasped Barbara's neck, "Tell me quickly, where Merlin is, where you hid Merlin." ”

Old Bill was tall, and he lifted Barbara's feet off the ground with a gentle lift. The caster struggled helplessly, his fair face flushed, and his throat made a smashing sound, unable to utter a complete sentence.

A real group of barbarians, don't they know how to be gentle with ladies, such people are not worthy of being called golden knights at all. All Barbara remembered was that there was a fire all around her, and that a fire had raged in the forest. Then I fainted as soon as it was dark.

The dungeon's adventure went surprisingly well, and with Sulla's guidance, Merlin was able to discern that the dark creatures might be able to give birth to magical crystals. However, these are only a matter of probability, and theoretically, all dark creatures that originate from the abyss have the potential to give birth to magic crystals.

The Infernal Corpse Worm produces about ten times as many mana crystals as the Skeleton Soldiers. In the actual battle, Merlin is instead reduced to a supporting role. Sura and Raj, two witches, one fire-type and one ice-type, the two of them work together with amazing results.

"You don't seem to be afraid of us at all?" Raj smiled. It's like flowers blooming on your face. You know, in the territory of the church, witches don't have a good reputation. Some people heard that witches were going to arrest them and send them to church.

"I'm not at all averse to these mysteries," Merlin said slowly, as if that were convincing, "but very interested in them." ”

"Your lord is not like any other lord," Sula frowned, giving a rare look of appreciation, "The people of the church have always claimed that witches only use evil words to confuse people. Cause unrest in the territory. ”

Merlin shook his head, then said, "The mysteries preached by the Church are even more outrageous than those that happen to witches, and the Church and witches seem to me to be the same thing, both mysterious people. ”

"You said the same thing as the Witch King, and she said that all we lack is force. Raj clapped his hands and applauded.

"Oh, what kind of character is that, I'm very interested. Merlin said.

"I'm afraid you won't see it," Sulla looked at Merlin casually, smiling strangely.

Merlin only felt cold underneath, and suddenly the whole person felt bad.

"The Witch King doesn't see a man, unless you ......want to," Raj snorted.

"There is a legend in Adrianople that there is a nation of witches in the Great Wasteland, could it be that you are talking about the king of witches?" Merlin asked with a shudder.

Sula's eyes lit up, and she seemed to be very interested in Merlin's words, "It seems that you are not so annoying when you are mysterious!" The topic summarizer, sure enough, has extraordinary abilities, any kind of topic, as soon as she speaks, you can't take it.

"That's good," Merlin laughed, "I'm still worried about not having a ransom, and now that you're so big, I can ask for a little more." ”

"You're looking for death!" Sula clenched her fists.

"Aren't you worried about the Witch King's troubles with the Ashfurnace Mountain Territory?" Raj asked.

"Such a big man, how can he have time to trouble me, besides, I am the life-saving benefactor of the two of you, if it weren't for the guards of Ashfurnace Village, the two of you are still in the hands of the kobolds, I saved you and asked for a ransom from the Witch Country, this is a normal thing. Merlin's eyes shone with a sly light, "This is the territory of the Church, and the city of Hippo, not far from here, belongs to Lord St. Thomas, and I believe that the Witch King will not go here for this little thing." ”

"What a pervert, miserly lord, I've never seen a knight like you. "Sula puffed up.

"Hey, there's no way, you've seen what Ash Furnace Village looks like now, and you need a lot of money to build the territory well. Merlin shook his head and sighed, "In the future, there will be a gladiatorial arena, a theater, and a public bath in the Ashfurnace Village." These all require gold coins. Lots and lots of gold coins. ”

Merlin was telling the truth, and he didn't hesitate to get the gold coins anywhere now. The construction of the Ashburgh Fort should continue to be accelerated, if it could not be completed in time for the autumn harvest. The Vikings will sweep through the entire Ashfurnace Village. It's home, it's the place where Merlin poured his heart and soul. If he can add even one more point of strength here, Merlin will not hesitate at this time.
