Chapter 111: Reasons for refusal

Due to Myron's identity and status, the lord of Riverbend Fort specially sent the Guards knight to Redwood Village, which was surrounded by thick fog, and there must be something very important.

Louis turned his gaze to Myron, the sage who had summoned him looked calm, and it was difficult to tell the specific situation from his expression.

So Louis decided to ask directly, if Myron wanted to say, he would naturally answer, and if he didn't answer, he didn't want to say, it was a very simple thing.

Myron really didn't hide it, and directly told the real purpose of Darius's coming to Redwood Village, or the real reason why Sorensen, the lord of Riverbend Fort, was looking for Myron: "Lord Sorensen, I hope I can go to Riverbend and help him build and maintain the defense tower." ”

"Towers, what is that?" sounds like some kind of military installation, and Myron, a sage, was specially invited to go, I'm afraid it's a facility with mysterious powers?

Myron pointed to the torch in Daliusi's hand: "The so-called defense tower is actually an enlarged and improved version of this magic prop, if several defense towers are arranged in several directions of the town, it can theoretically stop the invasion of dense fog." ”

Louis understood the reason why the lord of Riverbend Castle sent the Guards Knights to Redwood Village at the risk of their lives, and Riverbend was also facing the same threat as Redwood Village, so that Sorensen wanted to get Myron back to Riverbend and build that kind of defense tower: "Could it be that Riverbend doesn't have a spellcaster who knows how to build defense towers?"

"The trouble with this tower isn't in building, it's in maintaining and recharging once activated. Myron didn't feel impatient at all, and explained the situation to Louis in great detail: "The defense tower is a very energy-consuming magic facility, and it needs a strong enough caster to stay and replenish energy for a long time to ensure that the defense tower can run for a long time. ”

Myron glanced at the impatient Darius, sighed and shook his head: "If you want to defend against this kind of thick fog, there is almost no possibility of closing the defense tower, and the long-term operation is not only a burden on the defense tower, but also a great pressure on the caster who maintains and recharges...... Big enough to drain the caster's life. ”

"And most importantly...... Towers are not a real solution to this crisis. ”

Myron's words didn't seem to be a big deal to Louis, but they caused Darius to react violently: "Lord Myron, the defense tower is a very good magical facility, which can completely withstand the invasion of dense fog, and my ability to come here smoothly is proof of this." ”

The dense fog that Dalius passed through with a special torch, the defense tower they discussed was an enlarged and improved version of this kind of torch, and since Dalius was able to walk smoothly to Redwood Village, it also indirectly proved that the defense tower could withstand the dense fog.

It didn't sound like anything was wrong, but Myron just shook his head: "It's just that you're lucky." ”

"Sage-sage. Darius seemed anxious: "Are you ready to watch the people of Riverbend Castle being swallowed up by those thick fogs?"

"Of course not!" Myron shook his head, hadn't he come to Redwood Village specifically to deal with the threat of the fog?

But Darius didn't agree with Myron's idea, he already knew that this Louis was the brave man Myron 'found', and he didn't think that this guy was a powerful being who could save the world.

Seeing that Myron had always refused to go to Riverbend Fort, Darius suddenly raised her free left hand at Myron, and almost at the same time as he raised his hand, a short arrow flew out of his cuff.

Because the distance between the two people was very close, the short arrow with incredible speed flew in front of Myron's body in the blink of an eye, and then stopped in mid-air in front of Myron's shoulder so abruptly.

"Pleasantly surprised, wasn't it? I've been wary of this kind of thing for a long time. "Ever since he met this Darius, Louis has secretly turned on the speed of the leopard, and in this state, his reaction and action speed are very fast, enough to deal with all kinds of unexpected situations.

His covert defense really worked, successfully stopping Darius's sneak attack: "Just rejected Sorensen's invitation, is it worth such a ruthless attack?"

Darius did not open his mouth to argue, but Myron reached out and pinched the short arrow in front of him, and then refuted Louis's guess: "He didn't want to kill me, but he wanted to force me to go to Riverbend." Myron's fingers were wrapped in a faint glow, as if he had formed a layer of protection on his hand with some kind of force, ensuring that he did not come into direct contact with the short arrow.

After noticing this situation, Louis also understood the other party's thoughts: "Use poison?

"To be able to use it against me, it should be some kind of special toxin...... Am I right?

Darius happily admitted, "It's a special toxin configured by Master Angolo to target powerful spellcasters like you. ”

"That guy Angolo knows all day about studying these harmful things. Myron briefly tested it, and found that with the power he possessed, he really couldn't remove or purify the toxins carried on the short arrow, or some strange power contained in it.

He found that this thing seemed to be mixed with the power of the curse in addition to the toxin, and if he was given enough time, he might be able to research the ingredients and how to get rid of the toxin once and for all.

But if he is poisoned, he will definitely not be able to solve this problem in a limited time, so if he wants to get rid of the toxin, he can only obediently go to Riverbend Fort to find Angolo.

Myron then looked at the saber at Darius's waist, and he sensed a similar power in the knight's saber.

Sensing that he couldn't hide it, Darius said, 'Offended!', and immediately drew the sword at his waist and slashed at Myron in front of him, his movements were fast, and it could be seen from the angle of attack that he didn't want to kill Myron, but just wanted to cut or scratch the other party.

When attacking, Dalius was also paying attention to Louis next to him, just now Louis just stretched out his hand to 'freeze' his short arrow, it seems that this tall young man is not as insignificant as he initially thought.

Just when he was ready to change his moves at any time, and wanted to see what other means this person called Louis had, he didn't see anything clearly at all, just a streamer flashed in front of him, and then he felt a light in his hand, and when he saw it clearly, he noticed that only half of the long sword in his hand was left.

Looking up ahead, Louis didn't know when he was already standing in front of him, blocking Myron, the young man holding a blade of light in his hand, and it was this strange weapon that he had just seen and cut off his sword.

“......”

Looking at the half-severed sword in his hand, Dalius immediately threw the weapon aside, and at the same time pulled out the dagger from behind him, but the next second he felt that he was choked by an invisible force, and the dagger that had just been drawn out of his hand also fell to the ground, and his hands instinctively grabbed the empty neck.

Just as the dagger hit the ground, the feeling of choking his neck disappeared, but he also lost his last chance, and watched as the dagger flew from the ground in front of him to the young man's hand.

From beginning to end, he didn't understand what the other party was using, he was just like a toy in Louie's hand, which made him realize the huge gap between the two.

"This is the brave?"

Louis glanced at the dagger in his hand, he could also feel some strange fluctuations on the dagger, fiddled with it a few times, and then handed it to Myron behind him.

"Are you going to kill him?"

Louie didn't care if this guy had any mercy, anyway, Louie didn't know this guy, for Louie this is an enemy who suddenly appeared and wanted to sneak up on 'his own people'.

"No, without these weapons, he has no way to threaten me. ”

These weapons could not kill Myron, at most they took advantage of his defenselessness to slash him and poison him, forcing him to go to Riverbend.

"I'll persuade him to go back. Myron thanked Louie, "Thank you for coming to help." ”

"You're welcome. "Louie could see that Myron asked Pope to call him over, the purpose was to get himself to send this Darius, he didn't mind doing a little favor, but Myron also 'saved his life'.

When Louis and the others returned to their lodgings, they chatted for a while about what they had just heard, and when Myron returned, he learned that the knight of Darius had not left, because he said that he could not persuade Myron to return to Riverbay, and he had no face to go back to the lord.

"If he wants to stay, he stays, and he wasn't going back to Riverbend. "That kind of torch can only protect one person, and Darius only carries another torch, and even if he convinces Myron to agree to go to Riverbend, he can only let Myron set off alone, and he stays in Redwood Village to 'wait for death'.

For Darius, this is a mission with no return, and there is a greater probability that she will be swallowed by a thick fog on the way, and Myron will not be seen at all.

He didn't expect the end result to be even worse: he had managed to survive the thick fog that had made him tremble, and met Myron himself, but he had not been able to convince the sage to return to Riverbend, which would have been better than being swallowed up by the fog on the way.

The topic didn't linger on the knight for long, and Louis was still more curious: why did Myron so firmly refuse Lord Sorensen's request and refuse to go to Riverbend Fort anyway?

In order to defeat the Demon King, eliminate the crisis, and save the world, Myron went to the remote Redwood Village to prove that he wanted to solve this crisis in his heart, so why didn't he go to Riverbend Fort to help? Could it be that Myron and the lord Sorensen have some personal grudges?

Myron's answer was beyond the expectations of everyone present.

"Because I'm afraid of death, and I don't want to die!"
