Alan had not been with the village chief for a while when he saw Duke come to play with him.

Duke is a sunny boy, 12 years old, much stronger than Allen. He had blond hair, unkempt, blackened hands in the corner of the stove, and as soon as he came up, he grabbed Alan's hand and dragged it to share his new and interesting things.

Alan was very disgusted in his heart, but who made him a little boy who was only ten years old now. Not wanting to appear extraordinary, Alan reluctantly followed him to the attic kitchen.

In the kitchen, a basket was fastened upside down on the side of the pyre behind the stove, and a gray twine came out of it and was tied to the feet of the small stool.

Duke looked mysterious and slammed open the back basket, only to see a small golden creature resembling a cricket on the earth with two hind legs tied to it, unable to break free and escape.

Just as Duke was trying to catch it with his hand, suddenly a faint white light burst out from the creature's front tendrils and struck Duke's hand. But Duke continued to hold the handle with his hand regardless of it, and lifted it up all at once.

Alan was momentarily stunned.

"Star, what's going on?"

"Ding! Weak energy fluctuations have been found in the body of unknown organisms, and the data is insufficient to analyze. ”

"Star, create a new database 'Biological Illustrated Book' to collect biological information. "Alan has always been curious about unknown creatures.

"Alan, you must not have seen it, this is called a dirt pick, but it's fun. Duke showed it to Alan as if he were a treasure.

"Uh, are you okay with your hands?"

"It's okay, it's cool, hehe. ”

......

By the way, I rubbed a lunch at the village chief's house, although it was still not good, but it was much better than in the morning, at least there was white bread in this meal, which was high-end enough.

Eren returned to his house, playing with the dirt picks in his head.

A hint of cold touch is okay against smaller creatures, but it is not the slightest lethal to people.

"What's wrong with this world, a little earth pick can actually play with energy ......" Vaguely, Alan realized that he had overlooked something, but with Uncle Dick's interruption, he had to put it down for the time being.

"The kid is very good, such a high cliff didn't kill you, tsk, it's almost time to catch up with the immortal Xiaoqiang." Xu made up for the return to consciousness, Uncle Dick was more energetic, and found Alan to preach, and the words did not hide the meaning of reproach.

As usual, Allen's reaction at this time should be to bow his head and admit his mistakes, and repeatedly promise that he will not mess around in the future, and then Uncle Dick will return triumphantly with an expression of "children can be taught".

However, the current Alan did not fulfill his uncle's intentions.

After instructing the chip to find out that the immortal Xiaoqiang refers to a very nasty creature in this world that can't be destroyed, Alan asked with a puzzled face:

"Why don't you take Epiphany yourself?"

"You don't need Epiphany to save you, can you still be alive here now?" mentioned Uncle Epiphany is angry, snorting and pointing at Alan is a spittling thunderous scolding.

"The stinky boy didn't discuss things with adults, he almost lost his life, he fed you for so many years, and his brain is stupider than the wild sniper on the mountain (similar to the earth species - wild boar). If you really die because of this, how can you be worthy of the parents who worked hard to give birth to you and raise you!"

Feeling that the situation was about to collapse, Alan hurriedly changed the topic: "The village chief intends to send me to the city with Duke, so that I can come back and ask your opinion." ”

For latecomers, if they don't do it themselves, there is no need to argue, after all, the positions are different. Moreover, to ask a soul in his thirties to bow his head and accept the reprimand of his peers, Alan could not make such a gesture.

"Huh?" Uncle Dick was brewing the next wave of explosions, but he suddenly froze, looking at Allen, like a punch in cotton, and he couldn't exert his strength.

"Well, Alan, what do you think?"

"I felt too young to be alone in the city. "The implication is that you are my guardian, don't try to pick on your son.

"Let's be honest, I don't have long to live. Uncle Dick seemed to have aged a lot at once, and there was an atmosphere of sadness but seeing through everything.

"I can't rest assured that you, you will have to go down alone in the future. The only thing Uncle can do is arrange everything for you before you become an adult. ”

Allen's heart was touched at this time, although he also had the love of his parents in his previous life, he couldn't feel that preciousness. Just like drinking water every day, it's plain and unusual.

However, the water in the desert is a life-saving existence and is precious.

Alan was so excited that he felt that he should say something, but the uncle waved his hand to listen to him.

"Vincent, the owner of the city's sharp blacksmith shop, is a good friend of mine, and he will take care of you after I'm gone. After saying that, Uncle Dick seemed to have unloaded his burden, and the whole person was relaxed and open-minded.

"Boy Alan, you have to live your life, the hope of the Arnott family and the Terry family is in you. ”

Allen's eyes moistened, and this time he was really moved: "Isn't there a way to cure your disease?

The uncle was very pleased with Allen's intentions, but shook his head: "I know my illness very well, and it can't be cured by an epiphany." Otherwise, I would have picked it myself a long time ago, so I wouldn't have to toss it with your little body. ”

"What kind of illness do you have?" Alan still refused to give up his plans to seek treatment for his uncle.

"My illness is not really a disease. The uncle seemed to be recalling something, and said gloomily, "Do you remember the stories of those wizards I told you?"

"Hmm. Alan remembered the strange things that he had overlooked, and asked the chip to come up and browse it again.

"That's what happened. ”

It turned out that Uncle Dick was full of spirit in his early years, and he was promoted to a full-fledged knight at a young age, and was appreciated and reused by the principality, and became famous for a while.

By chance, the uncle met a mysterious friend, who had a good conversation and became a confidant. One day, that friend invited the uncle to explore a forest that was shrouded in mist all year round. It was then that the uncle learned that the legendary wizard was real.

Speaking of wizards, I have to say that this is really an extremely mysterious existence. There have been more or less rumors about it everywhere, but few people have actually seen it. No one knows what a wizard is like, or how a wizard grows up. Over time, the wizard became an after-dinner story. Some people even think it is so absurd that they scoff at it and disdain to pay attention to these unrealistic things, so that later people may not have heard of them.

The uncle's mysterious friend is a wizard, and what they are exploring is a relic of a wizard. Fighting their way through strange creatures and smashing traps with mysterious powers, they finally enter a treehouse. The only thing on the empty room was a black, gray-covered book, a bag full of it, and an inconspicuous brass ring.

Just as the uncle was about to step forward to investigate, the wizard friend behind him suddenly made a move, and a low spell sounded, followed by a strange ray.

The uncle was already vigilant, and when he heard the sound of the spell, his face changed greatly, and he instinctively dodged the attack of the ray on one side, turned around, bullied the wizard's side, and stabbed him with a sword before his next spell was completed.

The sorcerer's face was hideous, and he saw that he was about to succeed, but he was defeated in the hands of a mortal, how could he be willing! A resentment was overflowing, and when the sorcerer was dying, he sacrificed a vicious curse, trying to die with his uncle.

Uncle Nai is an official knight with strong vitality, and the wizard may not be of high rank, so he failed to kill the uncle on the spot. Because this is a curse made by the wizard before he died, it is quite tenacious and powerful, and the uncle is also deeply entangled in the curse and cannot be freed.
