Lorne set off with Balza, along with a dozen or so locals of White Sails.

Baifan Kok is located in the south of the kingdom, close to the water, the fishing industry is developed, most of the people in this area are very good at water, and they are good at boating, and they are also familiar with the technique of fishing and casting nets, so it is very convenient to go with them.

The golden sunlight shines on the dappled bluestone avenue, and the early risers start to get busy. Lorne walked down the street, breathing in the fresh morning air. Fortunately, the black fog did not pollute the air, which is perhaps one of the few things to be thankful for.

Balza walked aside. He was tall, with a thick belly and a large build. Although he is also bald, his body size is more than one lap larger than that of Bawen, and there is an inexplicable sense of security when he walks around.

"Balza, have you known the centurion for a long time?" asked Lorne, suddenly curious.

Balza smiled: "I've known each other for a few years." Me and the Rainas guys are both centurions' subordinates. ”

"What was the position of centurion before?" asked Lorne, "the last time I heard you chat, you came here from the royal capital of Silent Light?"

"Centurion...... After he came here, he didn't want to talk about the past anymore, because he always felt that he couldn't protect everyone when he went south, and he felt a little ashamed. "He didn't want to hear that title again, and felt that he had failed that glory." ”

Balza continued: "When he came to the horn of the Siren, he took off his armor and put on the heavy armor of a hunter and trained the hunter. Like His Highness Yugshia, he is now a companion and leader to all of us, a centurion among hunters. ”

Lorne nodded, as if he couldn't ask more about the centurion, so he changed the conversation and asked, "By the way, Balza, where is your hometown?"

This question made the tough guy pause for a moment, and it seemed to poke the softness in his heart. But to hide his embarrassment, Balza rubbed his nose with his index finger and smiled: "My hometown...... It's in Haixin Town. ”

"Seaheart?" Lorne was stunned, "Is it near the Seaheart Church?"

"Yes, over there. Scott also lived in that area. Balza rubbed his nose, "Don't look at me like this, in fact, I am also a devout Celine believer." I never met my parents, but I was taken in by the high priest of the church. He was a very kind old man. ”

"Later, when I was nineteen years old, I left Haixin Town, because I heard that the king was summoning knights, and I thought that with my strength, I should be fine, so I went to try my luck, and it turned out to be more than ten years old. Although I would go back to my hometown every other year to see everyone, I got busier and busier, and I didn't have a chance. ”

Lorne was silent for a moment and asked in a low voice, "Have you ever thought about going back after coming to the Kraken's Horn for so long?"

Balza nodded, but shook his head again: "Of course I thought about it, but once I went to Wood Town with His Highness Yugoshia, and sat on the top of the barn and looked at it from a distance with a monocular...... I gave up. His Highness also told me, don't be rash. ”

From his cryptic description, Lorne probably learned about the situation in Haixin Town, and he couldn't help but sigh. Balza said: "The route planned by His Highness this time also deliberately bypassed Haixin Town. But I don't complain, because I'm not the only one whose hometown is polluted. ”

Lorne nodded, agreeing. Indeed, if we want to say that the hometown is polluted, then the person who suffers the most is actually Yugshiya. As a royal daughter, her hometown is a source of pollution, the royal capital of Silent Light City.

The two men stopped talking, and silently went out of the city with the fishermen, and went to the edge of the vast shallows. Passing through a hill on the way, Lorne saw a tower not far away, and the white windmills were spinning in the morning breeze, and he suddenly remembered the legend of the windmills drawn on the map.

"That's the mill, and that's where we get the ingredients to make our sticks. Balza explained.

The group came to the northern part of the shoal, where there was a simple harbour under the rocky slope, and seven or eight ships of various sizes were docked on the shore, ranging from small boats for fishing in the offshore waters to large three-masted galleons for long-distance sailing.

Of course, there were more than just boats on the shore, and on the shallows covered with fine gravel stones, a dozen dark blue foreign objects lay motionless, soaked by the water that flooded the rocky beach from time to time.

"What's that?" Lorne frowned. Walking down the stone slope to take a closer look, it was actually some creatures with fish heads and tails, but four frog legs. Their mouths are half-open, revealing a few rings of tiny, sharp teeth, and their eyes are white.

"Deep diving fish-people. Before it was polluted, it was a large fish that ate meat, but now it has become like this, and it prefers to eat live animals. Balza stood a few meters away from the fish-people and pointed to the fangs in their mouths, "Look at their teeth." ”

Lorne just felt uncomfortable, the creature made my scalp tingle just by looking at it. He remembered that Yugshia seemed to have mentioned to him that these fish-man monsters would soon be incapacitated after leaving the water.

"Don't be nervous, these guys are basically scrapped as soon as they leave the water. Moreover, they have very low intelligence, and they always like to run to the shore to play at high tide, and as a result, they can't go back. Balza smiled, "It's very common, we're all used to it." ”

Looking at the shiny sharp scales on the side of the fish's body, Lorne shook his head, "What do we do with these fishmen?"

"Leave them alone, or say you don't feel comfortable looking at them, just burn them. Balza said, stepping forward, "Look at them, they're almost dry." He was defenseless, and reached out to pick up the gills of a fish-man.

"Be careful!" exclaimed Lorne.

But nothing happened. Balza carried the shriveled fish-man carcass, as if a fisherman had caught a big fish, with a smug smile on his face: "Look, I said they were dead, right?"

Suddenly, Lorne felt the fish-man's tail seem to quiver slightly. Although it was only a small amplitude, it still made him immediately alert, and his right hand reached for the queen's blade at his waist, and quickly stepped forward, swinging the knife to cut off the head of the fish.

Balza was also taken aback and hurriedly let go. I saw that the headless fishman was twitching wildly on the rocky beach, and it seemed to be alive, thanks to Lorne's quick reaction to cut off the fish's head, otherwise he might have been injured.

The other shriveled fish-men in the shallows twitched slightly, soaking their bodies as a wave rolled onto the shore, and all sorts of strange screams came from the fishman's mouth.

"Damn!" Balza scolded, picking up the double-sided axe behind his back and beheading the fishmen who were about to get up. Lorne's hands lit up with blood, and he threw several balls of blood fireballs that burned the fish-man's torso.

The accompanying fishermen all fled away in panic, but they didn't expect that these fishmen were just fake their deaths, and they almost came back to life after being soaked by the waves.

After quickly cleaning up the fish-men, Balza snorted fiercely: "These guys...... mutated. ”
