Chapter 41: The Lion!
Al's breathing was even, but he still had three points of vigilance.
So, when footsteps were heard outside the door, Al opened his eyes almost immediately.
Jumping straight from the bed, he strode to the edge of the table, and reached out to grab the cross sword on the table.
Al's sudden move really startled Michelle, who was constantly dozing off in her chair.
Looking at Michelle, who was frightened, Al said directly, "Don't worry, there is me." ”
With that, the footsteps outside the room were very close, and soon there was a knock on the door.
"Mr. Al, Chief Grey asked me to tell you that the silverware in the village has been collected.
It is smelting in a cauldron in the village square, and I wonder if Mr. Al has any ideas for going and seeing. ”
Glancing at the sky outside, it was obvious that it was past noon, and the sun was gradually weakening.
Obviously, it was the afternoon of the day, and it wasn't long before the evening.
After a moment's thought, Al stabbed his sword at his waist and his metal bow and quiver on his back.
Then, after putting on the black cloak, he motioned Michelle to follow him and walked out of the room directly.
Led by the villager who had come to call Al.
Al and Michelle walked towards the village square outside the tavern.
When he arrived at the village square, Al saw a large number of villagers surrounding it.
In the center of the village square, Gray and a few village elders were directing some of the village's prime people to smelt silverware.
After seeing Al arrive, the villagers of McGonagall showed a certain level of respect for El.
At the same time, the village chief Gray also stepped forward and led El to the smelting cauldron.
"Mr. Al, this is all the silverware in our McGonagall Village.
I don't know how long it will take to smelt these silverware before they can come in handy. ”
Hearing Village Chief Gray's words, Al looked at the obvious impurities inside.
Even some silverware that had not yet completely melted the silver molten metal, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
After Al traveled to this world, he read a lot of books, and memorized them in his mind with the help of his [concentration].
And the method of refining high-density silver was also derived from a note similar to that of a low-ranking pastor of the church.
You know, it's not just silver that can hurt dark creatures.
Metallic silver does have the effect of restraining dark creatures.
But that is the effect that can only be achieved after precise refining.
Al had spent a certain amount of money to smelt a silver plate he had bought for a long time before it came in handy.
In other words, even a silver plate has been smelted for a long time before it comes in handy.
If a large amount of silver like the one is now in place, it will take a long time to smelt it.
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and Al couldn't bear to tell the truth as he looked at Gray and the villagers who were looking at him with excitement on their faces.
However, at this time, if you don't tell the truth, you are deliberately harming others.
Taking a deep breath, Al looked at Gray and said, "The way you smelt is not the right one.
In this smelting method, it takes a long time to be able to smelt the high-density silver that comes in handy.
Therefore, please use iron tongs to pick out all those impurities, and then separate the molten metal and smelt it.
In this way, things can be prepared more quickly, and they can be used faster. ”
As he spoke, Al demonstrated to Gray and the others how to smelt high-density silver.
When the demo was over, Al stopped staying.
He found a large tree around him and sat directly under it.
Michelle naturally followed Al and sat down under the tree.
She looked at the busy villagers, thought about it, and found a topic to talk to Al.
"Mr. Al, did you know that Village Chief Gray used to go on a study tour.
His son, like him, traveled outside for a while before returning.
It's just that the son of the village chief is not the same as the village chief of the village, he is very weak and not cheerful.
So they basically stayed at home and didn't come out at all, so the villagers didn't see it many times. ”
Hearing what Michelle said to him, Al nodded slightly, and simply chatted with her.
"Chief Gray seems to be a person with a higher education, so I'm not surprised by that.
It's just that I don't know where Village Chief Gray attends, isn't it Solandar Middle School in Far Mountain City?"
Michelle shook her head slowly in confusion, and then spoke, "It's not Solandal Middle School.
I've heard that when Grey was young, he seemed to have attended the school of the Church of the Lord of Billions of Radiances for a while.
It's just that because the village chief Gray didn't have the potential to become a priest, he came back after a period of basic education.
But I've heard that the son of the chief of Grey seems to have been studying in a city far away.
As for what kind of school it was, I don't know, because Chief Gray basically doesn't mention his son. ”
After saying this, Michelle began to tell Al about the situation of the elders in the village again.
There are blacksmiths who have been passed down for many generations, and there are also village guard leaders from previous generations.
All in all, the elders who stood beside the village chief of Gray were once powerful figures in the village.
There was no doubt about these Els, as the town of Linshan was in a similar state.
For example, the leader of the hunters, the more famous scholars, can be regarded as the elders of Linshan Town.
It's just that El is deep in thought about one of the little information revealed in Michelle's words.
Because what was revealed in that bit of information obviously expressed a very serious problem for Al.
If that problem came true, Al was sure that things in McGonagall's village would definitely be more troublesome.
As the minutes ticked by, McGonagall Village was once again enveloped in darkness.
The villagers, who had gathered in the village square, returned to their homes in twos and threes, sealing the windows and doors.
As a result, on the originally popular village square, only the village chief Gray and a few village guards remained.
As for those village elders, they have already gone home one after another, what to do, what to do.
Looking at the sky, Al took Michelle back to the village square.
He glanced around, suddenly frowning slightly.
Then he said directly to Michelle beside him: "Michelle, have you seen your father today?"
Hearing Al's words, Michelle was slightly stunned, and then her face changed slightly.
She looked at Al and nodded a little pale.
Seeing this, Al's face did not become so good.
He turned his head, looked at Gray, and said, "Village Chief Gray, I suspect something happened to Jonathan.
I'm going to go to Jonathan's house now to see if anything is going on, and please help me watch Michelle. ”
As the words fell, Al nodded to Michelle and rushed straight in the direction of Jonathan's house.
The physical fitness of a medium knight is enough for Al to exert his running speed and stamina.
What's more, McGonagall Village wasn't that big in the first place, and soon Al was in front of Jonathan's house.
He looked at the room without any lights and the open door, and the ominous premonition in his heart became more and more solemn.
Taking a deep breath, he pulled out the cross sword with his backhand, turned on the [Concentration] state and walked inside.
Entering the room, Al found the oil lamp on the table and lit it.
Through the dim light, the situation of Jonathan's house was unobstructed by Al, and the whole house looked chaotic.
And there was nothing left except some old furniture and some wine barrel food.
It's clear that Jonathan isn't here.
However, through the apparently chaotic room, Al knew that Jonathan must have been captured by someone.
Since it was captured, not killed, it meant that Jonathan was still useful to them.
Jonathan's life should not be threatened in the short term.
However, once the time drags on, it is not so easy to say.
Frowning slightly, Al prepared to turn and leave.
However, just then, a whistling sound came from behind Al's head.
At the same time, a loud shout rang out from behind Al.
"You monster, don't let me die!"
The moment he felt the wind in the back of his head, Al reacted immediately.
He lunged forward, rolling around on the ground.
Then the legs jerked hard and bounced straight off the ground.
And the cross sword in his hand slashed in an arc, slashing straight towards the sneak attacker behind him.
The sword slashed out, and immediately collided with a basin-sized wheel tomahawk.
Al only felt his wrist tingle, barely able to hold the cross sword in his hand.
And he himself was directly shocked by a strong anti-shock force, flew out directly, smashed through the window and fell outside.
At the same time, Al also saw clearly the person who had attacked him.
The other party was not the vampire, but a tall and strong man of about two meters.
Its hair was shaggy and draped behind its back, like a huge lion standing upright.
As for his hand, he held a wheel tomahawk the size of a face plate, and his power was amazing.
After a hard fight with Al, he took three steps backwards in a row before charging towards Al again.
At the same time, Al heard the lion-like man roar loudly, "You disgusting monster, give me death."
Those who dare to kill my lion mercenary group, it seems that you don't take my mad lion seriously!
Just let me try you disgusting monster, how many pounds and taels do you have!"
As the words fell, streams of blood-red aura emanated from the mad lion's body.
I saw these blood-colored aura surging along the arms of the mad lion towards the wheel battle axe, constantly converging on the axe blade!
"Combat Skill - Blood Moon!"
