Half an hour later, William, Karena, and Jack appeared on the outskirts of Abis City, in a large wood. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Sou!

A quick arrow suddenly landed at Jack's feet, and the arrow was completely sunk into the ground, and the tail of the arrow trembled slightly.

Jack broke out in a cold sweat, and he hurriedly shouted, "Uncle Sam, it's me! I'm Jack, and Sister Karenna!"

In the dense woods, not far away, on a thick and strong tree, the branches and leaves shook for a while. A stout man in a black linen coat jumped down, his muscles bulging and his face full of beard.

"Jack, I'm sorry. I just heard the movement and thought it was a rabbit. Besides, I didn't expect you to come back so quickly. ”

The bearded man walked slowly and glanced at Jack with an apologetic look on his face.

As he spoke, the bearded man looked at William, whose hands were tied behind Karina, with a hint of doubt in his eyes, "Why are you arresting a noble young master and coming back?"

Jack pouted: "Uncle Sam, you see, he is not an ordinary aristocratic young master. ”

The bearded man was even more puzzled.

Karena then spoke, "Let's go back to the camp first." ”

There was no objection from the crowd.

William didn't speak, silently followed behind the three of them, and walked all the way to the depths of the woods.

Five minutes later, a small camp came into view.

The camp was located in a clearing, and the sound of running water could be heard faintly around it, and the water source was nearby.

The camp was very simple, surrounded by wooden fences and ropes, and there were more than 20 gray tents inside, with some horses tied to them, and some iron pots for cooking food.

Outside the tent, more than a dozen people were sitting around a bonfire made of stones, their lips squirming, as if they were talking about something.

At this time, the bearded man led William and the others into the camp and came to the campfire.

"Father, I brought someone back. ”

Ignoring everyone's puzzled looks, Karena walked up to a middle-aged man and said.

Then, Karena whispered a few words in the middle-aged man's ear, and then the middle-aged man raised his head and looked at William with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Probably, he also felt that William was not like a magician.

"Hello, I am the leader of this small mercenary group, my name is Eagle. ”

The middle-aged man looked at William's eyes, then at William's bound hands, and with a knowing smile on his face, he said meaningfully: "If I guess correctly, this dead knot must have been tied by Your Excellency himself, right?"

William smiled slowly.

Since his petty tricks have been seen through, there is no need to continue pretending. He grabbed a thin rope beside his hands, and with a slight pull, all the dead knots were suddenly untied.

Karenna and Jack watched the scene, dumbfounded.

What's going on? It's all dead knots just now? Why did it open as soon as I pulled it?

Karina, in particular, thinks more.

If, William had ill intentions towards them before...... Thinking of this, Karena didn't dare to imagine it anymore.

William tied the string in his hand in a circle, handed it back to Jack, who was still in a sluggish state, sat down in front of a middle-aged man named 'Eagle' and said, "Hello, my name is William. ”

The middle-aged man smiled heartily, and did not show the slightest contempt for William, but said solemnly: "I have listened to what Karena said." We don't know much about what you want, and we don't have much to tell you. ”

After a pause, the middle-aged man continued: "Sumera, from the Noqin family. ”

William had known this news for a long time, and Sumera had told him personally.

However, William did not interrupt the middle-aged man, only to see him continue: "The Noqin family, this family is carrying too many things. ”

Saying that, the middle-aged man sighed: "A long time ago, the ancestors of the Nuoqin family were cursed by a vicious curse in order to obtain the Ring of the Dead, one of the ten major artifacts, which caused problems in their family bloodline, and they became thin heirs, and each generation only gave birth to a baby girl and not a boy. ”

Moreover, every generation of a baby girl of the Nochin family dies as soon as the mother dies immediately. And the baby girl will inherit the mother's bloodline and talent, and is a born necromancer. ”

The middle-aged man slowly said, "The Ring of the Dead, one of the ten major artifacts, has been passed down from generation to generation by the Nuoqin family. It was this ring that everyone wanted that brought bane to the Noqin family. ”

Hearing this, William's brows furrowed.

The middle-aged man continued: "A few years ago, I heard that the Church of Light secretly dispatched three Earth Knights (whose strength is equivalent to that of the Great Magician) to capture the Noqin family and want to get the ring. And in the end, the operation failed. ”

"Sumela Noqin, the only survivor of the Nochen family, escaped with the Ring of the Dead. ”

The middle-aged man's face was solemn, and he stared at William's eyes and said, "Now, I have told Your Excellency everything I know, and Your Excellency should also answer our questions, right? What is the relationship between you and Sumera?"

"She was my teacher. William said intently.

As soon as these words came out, the faces of everyone present showed a look of surprise.

William's face was not red, and he continued to lie without panting: "A year ago, she left and has not returned. So, I'm here for her. ”

The middle-aged man asked in a cold voice, "Your Excellency, surrounded by a crowd, dare to say that you are a disciple of the necromancer Sumera......"

Speaking of this, a cold glint appeared in the middle-aged man's eyes: "Aren't you afraid that we will arrest you and take you to the Magic Guild or the Church of Light to receive a reward?"

"Don't be afraid. Not at all. William said directly.

"Oh, why aren't you afraid?" the middle-aged man asked with interest as a cold light flashed in his eyes.

William said with a smile: "Because, you people, I don't care about it yet. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone seemed to hear a funny joke and burst into laughter.

"Boy, you're so confident and arrogant. ”

"There are so many of us here, any one of them can beat you all over the ground. ”

"If you can take my sword, I'll count you as powerful. ”

Everyone laughed.

Listening to the ridicule of everyone, William's face did not change, his eyes stared at the middle-aged man's eyes and asked, "Why don't you laugh?"

The middle-aged man did not speak.

He really couldn't imagine that he was doing a seventeen or eighteen boy in front of him.

said that he was arrogant and ignorant, he was humble and polite in every word and every move, neither humble nor arrogant, and he really didn't look like a teenager who liked to talk big.

Moreover, in the face of his own heroes, he was always calm. It's uncommon for such a heart to appear in a teenager.

The middle-aged man didn't laugh. Not only did he not smile, but said with a serious face, "I apologize to Your Excellency for what I said before. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked again.

The middle-aged man continued: "Actually, we didn't mean to arrest you for a reward at all. Because... Those of us actually come from a family of necromancers. ”

As he spoke, the middle-aged man pulled out his iron rod weapon and patted it lightly on the bonfire stone, and the iron rod was impacted, and he immediately squirmed.

Gradually, the handle of the stick vanished, turning into a dark blue crystal, and the shaft of the stick turned into a branch of a short wand.

"These are just some tricks. ”

The middle-aged man explained lightly, and with a wave of his wand in his hand, a rotten lizard with only a skeleton left in the open space of the camp broke through the ground, circled around the bonfire a few times, and then completely fell apart and turned into a pile of broken bones.

When William saw this scene, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.

He turned his head to look at Jack, who pouted, "My father is a necromancer, but I am an authentic assassin. You don't have to look at it, I only cultivate Dou Qi, and I don't know any magic at all. ”

William laughed dumbly.

The middle-aged man said solemnly: "All of us have revealed our identities to Your Excellency because next, we will have a rescue operation. I hope that you will join us in this operation. ”

After a pause, a smile appeared on the middle-aged man's face and said, "Perhaps, if you are lucky enough, Your Excellency can also meet your teacher." ”

Hearing this, William was stunned. “”
