CHAPTER XXXVI
Lin Juexiao was shocked when he heard this: "Zhang Jiao, what's wrong?"
Yesterday afternoon I was alive and kicking, but now I ...... It's appalling.
"I was killed in the grocery store last night. Lola said slowly.
"Zhang Jiao bumped into someone stealing something from the grocery store at night, stepped forward to stop it, and was killed. According to the grocery store proprietor, only a dark shadow was seen. ”
"Black Shadow ......," Lin Juexiao said stunned.
"Actually, the theft of things from the grocery store happened a few days ago, but the thief has not been caught, only occasionally someone said that they saw a dark shadow, and there is no other clue. I didn't expect this thief to be so cruel and hateful!" Lola seemed angry.
Lin Juexiao couldn't help but feel resentful of the person who did it. He also knew that Zhang Jiao was a very good person, which could be seen from his repeated merciful treatment of himself in battle.
At this time, an adventurer came running and said, "Lola, Instructor Helina is looking for you. ”
"Okay, I'll go now. Lola nodded.
"Let's go. Lola said to Lin Juexiao.
"Hmm. Lin Juexiao said. I thought it should be for this.
After a while, the two arrived at the archer training center, and Lin Juexiao stopped and stood at the door.
Lola smiled when she saw this: "Come in, Teacher Helina said yesterday that she wanted to see you." ”
Lin Juexiao was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly walked in.
Upon entering the gate, there are bows and arrows and targets hanging in the aisles, which are used for decoration, but they are all real bows and arrows.
Lin Juexiao followed Lola to the second floor, and heard Lola shouting, "Teacher." Then another gentle voice said, "Here you are." ”
A beautiful woman with long light green hair parted in the middle and a heroic spirit between her eyebrows and eyes appeared in front of Lin Juexiao.
She wore a forehead guard studded with red orbs, a light green light robe, a common blue short bow, and the most distinctive thing was the pair of pointed ears.
This is the first time Lin Juexiao has seen elves.
"Oh?" asked Herina, whose heroic green eyes lit up, "Is this your companion?"
"Well, teacher, his name is Lin Juexiao. Lola introduced.
"You are Lin Juexiao, I heard Hans mention you. Helina smiled.
"Hello, Instructor Helina. Lin Juexiao said.
Is this the elf who has lived for thousands of years? Lin Juexiao looked at Helina curiously.
"I'm sorry to let you happen to this kind of thing. Helina smiled apologetically.
"It's okay, Lola's business is my business. Lin Juexiao said busily.
"Hehe, Lola is so lucky to have a companion like you. Helina said.
Suddenly, she changed her words and said to Lola: "This matter is obvious, it is the hand under the shadow, since you have done this, you can't treat it as an ordinary thief." I'll leave it to you now, and we'll do everything you need to investigate the matter, and you'll be able to requisition whatever you need. ”
"Yes. Lola said, her little face full of seriousness.
Lin Juexiao looked at it and thought to himself that although Helina and Teacher Hans were both leaders, they were different, more like an organization manager.
"Go ahead. Helina said.
The two walked out of the archer training center, and Lin Juexiao asked, "Who are you going to ask for help?"
"Just us. Lola said.
She continued: "You should also know Zhang Jiao's strength, he is already close to an intermediate adventurer. But he was defeated by the black shadow at once, and only the proprietress hiding behind the counter saw it, and did not alarm anyone, obviously there was a big gap. In this way, the team should be reduced, and no one else should be brought to sacrifice in vain. ”
Lin Juexiao looked at Lola blankly.
Seeing him like this, Lola smiled and said, "I've been following Teacher Helina for a long time, so naturally that's it." The teacher always tells things in a very organized way. ”
"Hehe, Lola has become a very good adventurer. Lin Juexiao smiled.
Lola pursed her lips and smiled.
"How are you going to find the whereabouts of the black shadow?" Lin Juexiao asked.
"Let's tell everyone not to stop the Black Shadow from stealing, lest he hurt people again. Then we hid in the shadows and followed him. Lola thought for a moment and said.
"Hmm. Lin Juexiao nodded, this is indeed an effective and correct approach.
The two went to the grocery store to inform everyone.
At the same time, the Fairy Academy Ellene.
A dark shadow appeared on the field performance stage, and the human figure in the hazy black shadow could be faintly visible.
"Where's Ivana?" an ethereal, metallic voice came from the dark shadow.
"Who are you looking for?" said Hans, coming out of the void.
The black shadow shook violently, as if taken aback, and the illusory metal voice asked, "Who are you?"
The old man in front of him actually made him completely unable to see through his strength.
"I'm just an old man who came to the Fairy Academy as a guest, I don't know who your Excellency is?" Hans said slowly.
"No matter who you are, if you dare to stop that great man, there is only one way to die!" the black shadow launched a fierce attack, and immediately pounced on Hans.
"It looks like I'm going to bully the old man. Hans chuckled, the worn-out wand in his hand glowing faintly.
After a while.
The shadow had dissipated, and a man who had described it as withered lay on the ground.
"Can you tell me who your Excellency is now?" asked Hans.
The man's twisted face chuckled, and he suddenly bit hard in his mouth, and collapsed to the ground.
Hans was slightly shocked when he saw this: this matter was more secret than he had imagined.
"Looks like we're going to have to inform the Holy Land. Hans muttered, his body disappearing into the air.
Shooter Village.
It was already past five o'clock in the morning, and there was no dark shadow in sight.
Lin Juexiao and Lola hid in the grass, taking turns watching the grocery store, waiting for the black shadow to appear.
"Lin Juexiao......" Lola suddenly whispered.
"Hmm, what's wrong?" Lin Juexiao replied in a low voice.
"You say, what should we do if we catch the man who killed Zhang Jiao?" asked Lola.
"Kill him, of course. Lin Juexiao said without hesitation.
"Ah......" Lola was startled, and said slowly, "Do ......you have to do this?"
Although she has been reborn in terms of strength and ability, she still has a natural kindness to treat everyone equally in these things, and lacks the ability to distinguish and judge.
But Lin Juexiao knew that this kindness to the enemy would be malicious to his friends.
"We have to kill him. If we don't kill him and fulfill our own little good, he will continue to kill more people, then we have fulfilled the great evil and violated the great good. Lin Juexiao said firmly.
When Lola heard Lin Juexiao say this, her eyes suddenly brightened a lot, although she couldn't understand it all for a while, but she also vaguely understood the general truth, she nodded and said, "Yes." ”
At this moment, a dark shadow flashed under the street lamp.
"It's here!" Lin Juexiao said in a low voice.
Lola stared nervously at the dark shadow.
The dark shadow went into the grocery store without hesitation, and after a while he came out again, and without knowing what he had taken, he left the way he had been going, and he was very fast.
"Keep up!" Lin Juexiao said.
Lola immediately jumped out of the grass.
The black shadow moved rapidly, almost blending into the night, unrecognizable, but it was barely able to make out its position by the faint light and moonlight.
The Dark Shadow is extremely fast. But Lin Juexiao and Lola, one has teleportation, and the other is proficient in fighting spirit, and they can keep up.
They were far away, for fear of alarming the shadows.
Soon, the Black Shadow led them out of the Shooter Village and into the eastern hill of the Shooter Village. Then he turned into an inaccessible corner and disappeared.
At this time, the east had already revealed a touch of fish belly white, which happened to illuminate that corner. The two of them looked at each other, and at the same time were stunned: there was a recessed stone wall, like a dead end.
"Why is he gone?" said Loracy.
"I'll see. Lin Juexiao approached the stone wall.
A large circle is drawn on the stone wall, and there are various symbols inside.
"This is ......" Lin Juexiao looked at the stone wall and muttered, "Teleportation Magic Array! ”
"Can I teleport to another place?" asked Lola.
"Well, let's go inside. Lin Juexiao said, and pressed his hand on it, injecting a trace of magic power.
Immediately, both of them were sucked in.
Surrounded by ruins and ruins overgrown with wild grass, the light of dawn gives an ancient and mysterious color.
Lin Juexiao and Lola looked around cautiously.
"I didn't expect such a place around the shooter village. Lola said.
"Since you don't know, this place must have appeared because of the dark shadows. Lin Juexiao said.
"Hmm. Lola nodded.
"It's not just a thief. Be careful, go in and have a look. Lin Juexiao said, and took the lead in walking forward.
It's all huge stone houses that look like stone temples connected to each other. Some of the stones were piled up in the shape of giants, almost more than four meters high. The stones were already covered with grass.
The two walked forward, and were just about to turn a stone house, when suddenly Lin Juexiao, who was walking in front, stopped and motioned Lola to stop.
"Look. Lin Juexiao pointed behind the corner.
Lola poked her head out slightly, stunned-
There are two or three of the four-meter-tall stone men I saw just now, and they are walking slowly.
"That's ......," Lola said in a low voice.
Lin Juexiao nodded and said, "Monster." ”
"What to do?" asked Lola. She had never seen such a big monster, even the Flower Mushroom King was not as tall as this stone man.
"In the case of stone people, their defense should be high, but their movements must be slow, so we can just avoid them and run over without fighting. Lin Juexiao said.
"Good. Lola said.
Lin Juexiao poked his head out, saw the timing of the two or three stone men scattering to the side, and said in a low voice: "Run!" and quickly ran out.
Lola followed.
As soon as the two entered the territory of the stone man, they were discovered. They turned around and slowly walked towards the two humans.
As Lin Juexiao expected, although these stone men looked very powerful, they moved very slowly, and they couldn't touch the two who moved quickly.
They soon arrived at another stone man temple, but the sight before them made both of them stunned: the entire temple was filled with stone men walking slowly.
