Chapter XXVII
In the sewers, Ron is in a deep sleep at the very heart of the Moonlight Rat's territory, while Askatra on the ground is in the midst of a cold winter wind.
Exiting the specific sewer exit under the bridge, Green showed the guards official permissions, then wrapped in a gray robe with a constant ring of protection spells [Enduring the Environment], and led his team members into the human world.
"Hey, it's cold!"
"It's damn weather, it's still warm before you come in!"
Immediately following Green out of the sewers was Ike Flod, his leather armor naturally had no constant magic effect, and was immediately pierced by the cold wind, so the wanderer, who felt the temperature difference between the sewer and the ground, immediately folded his arms and trembled and complained.
"Ahh
"I still like the ground!"
"Did you say so, Gondork!"
"Yes......"
Fiona and Gondok walked out behind Flaude, obviously different from Flaud, Fiona, who had had had enough of the foul smell of the sewers, immediately opened her arms and raised her towering chest, closed her eyes and breathed heavily, and the gray wolf Bruce at her feet had the same expression of enjoyment.
As for Gondork, who came out last, the warriors who had already entered the path of the model were extremely strong, and they didn't care about these colds at all.
"Let's go, let's go back to the hotel first. ”
"Then, where are you waiting, I need to go to the council lord. ”
Walking up to the magnificent buildings that give the Bridge District its name, Master Green explained his rest of his itinerary before heading towards the north side of the Bridge District, where he would head to the administrative district of Ascatla, while the rest of the Iron Fist Adventure Squad headed in the opposite direction, heading to the Five Pot Inn.
Although it was already a cold winter day, trade in Ascatra was still thriving, and the alleys were still relatively densely populated.
However, thanks to Green's mage robes, none of the long-eyed thieves dared to approach him, and the merchants who were doing business saw Green passing by and subconsciously got out of the way.
So, it only took a short time for Master Green to walk through the alleys of the Bridge District and into a garden-like administrative district.
Even in the bitter cold of winter, the administrative district still has a flourishing vegetation that is not found in other areas, and at the same time, the fountains that can be seen everywhere also surge with waves that do not freeze, releasing the breath of spring early.
"Crunch!"
Walking briskly, instead of reaching the hexagonal administration building where the Council of Six was located, he dropped an irregular frosted glass as he passed through a wide intersection, and immediately a cloud of mist rose from all around him, obscuring all bets from his view.
And when the fog slowly dissipated in the cold winter wind, the place had lost the figure of Master Green.
"Damn it!"
"Concealment Mist Technique plus Stealth Technique, this mage is really alert!"
The houses in the borough were widely spaced apart, and in the corner of another house in the distance, watching the empty street corner as the fog cleared, a thin figure flicked the dagger in his hand fiercely.
However, Mage Green was unaware that someone was following him. The reason he unleashed the Hidden Mist and Invisibility Spells was simply that he didn't want people to see them. Moreover, after the last encounter with the six-member council, Green received permission from the Masked Mage Guild to release spells no higher than the three rings in the city, of course, the losses caused by the casting of spells were naturally borne by Green in full.
"Crunch!"
Hidden in shape, Green turned several corners in succession and entered an alley. At the end of the alley, there was a wooden door, and with a few taps on it, immediately above the latch of the wooden door, a small window not much larger than a fist opened, revealing a bloodshot eye.
"Who's knocking on the door!"
"Please show your permission!"
Since the invisibility technique had not yet subsided, the bloodshot owner did not see any sound, he asked in a hoarse voice, and when he found that no one answered, he prepared to close the small window.
However, just as he was about to close it, a heavy piece of paper covered with the certificate of the Council of Six suddenly appeared in front of the small window, and then from the empty door, Green's voice rang out.
"It's permission, open the door, I have something to discuss. ”
"Crunch!"
There was a long grinding sound, and the wooden door slowly opened, and the heavy paper as proof disappeared in the air, and then in a long sound, the wooden door closed.
............
Behind the wooden door, a long and winding corridor slowly emerged, and Green, who had removed the effect of invisibility, walked past the gatekeeper's body and walked along the corridor, finally to a large room illuminated by dozens of torches.
The walls of the room were filled with bookcases and countless books, and under the bookshelves facing the entrance to the room, a stout gentleman sat behind a desk shrouded in a face-obscuring robe, supporting his chin with fists of his hands with three jade rings each, revealing his thick beard.
"You're early, Master Green. ”
"Of course, it's better to be a little earlier than late. ”
In the sewers, Green had already made an appointment with the council lord in front of him, and in order to use the time more effectively, Green was a little earlier, but unexpectedly, the council lord had the same idea.
However, although the two sides are far from each other in terms of power, they have been advancing on the path of exemplary for a long time, and Green, who is about to impact the path of legend, has used his strength to close the gap between the two sides.
"So, I think the powerful High Mage of Grimm should have brought me new news, right?"
"Of course, it's just probably not what you want to know. ”
Reaching into his arms, Master Grimm placed the heavy bronze dragonborn scales and scroll letter on his desk for the other party to take and look at, and at the same time the information obtained from the sewers and his own inferences were drawn together.
As a member of the Council of Six, the stout man sitting at the desk carefully examined the object given by Master Green, and at the same time, his palms slowly crossed and clasped tightly.
"You say that the lich hidden in the sewers of Ascatra is from Karinsan, and that she is also a member of the Rune Society, a master of runes?"
"And in order to find and kill this lich, you want to get a map of the sewers in Ascatla, as well as financial assistance from hired people?"
"Yes, you should also know that the Lich are powerful undead creatures with superb spell-casting abilities, and the Lord of Runes is a further Lich, their predecessors are all high-level mages, and after becoming Lichs, they all entered the legend. ”
The silent air slowly froze, and after a long period of thought, the stout man at the desk finally let go of his clasped hands and replied to Master Green.
"I will set aside a hundred pearls to fund the extermination of the Lich, but you must promise that the dawn of Ascatra will not be altered in any way. ”
"Do you understand?"
