119 Departure
readx;
In the early morning of Alder, before dawn, most of the townspeople were still asleep soundly on their warm beds. Only a handful of metal dealers got up from their beds early www.biquge.info grumbled and put on their clothes, ready to drive their wagons to other cities to do business.
But when they traveled, they found that the eastern gate of Alder, the soldiers in armor were firmly sealed. They looked at the speeding carriage and made a gesture prohibiting traffic.
"The east gate is not open, please go out of the city to another gate. The soldier guarding the east gate shouted.
Although the metal dealers were a little puzzled and dissatisfied, they did not dare to say anything, so they could only turn their horses and leave, but they faintly saw that under the closed gate of the east city, there seemed to be more than a dozen people with weapons sitting around.
Nicole yawned, leaned her head against the city gate, squinted her eyes and muttered, "Why haven't you set off yet?" ”
Ian looked up, and then said, "It seems that those senior hunters haven't arrived yet, and I haven't seen the leader." ”
The team leader is Jeff Myers.
"It's still the team leader, why do you put it up. I can't get to the agreed time, really, why should I give him a team leader. Nicole complained.
"Because he's a high-ranking hunter, and he's the oldest of all the hunters in the room. ”
Nicole turned her head to see Dennis Granger standing in front of her and smiling at her. Today, Dennis did not wear his conspicuous white robe, but wore a black light armor. He wore a ruby-encrusted sword around his waist and a black cloth bag behind his back.
"Good morning, Voduras. ”
Nicole tilted her head, not remembering for a moment what the hell Fortressuras was. Originally, she still didn't want to deal with Dennis very much, but she felt that she didn't want to hit the smiley person, and she was still in the same team, so Nicole reluctantly replied.
"You're good. ”
Dennis smiled when he saw that Nicole had taken care of him. Just as he was about to say something more to Nicole, a hurried, chaotic sound of horses' hooves cut through the silence of the morning. Everyone looked up and looked at a horse-drawn carriage that suddenly appeared at the end of the street.
As soon as the guard stretched out his hand to intercept it, he suddenly saw the sign on the carriage and immediately lowered his hand. Because the sign they were familiar with, it was the family crest that belonged to the Addams family of the City Lord's Mansion, and it was their immediate boss.
The carriage swept past the barricade unhindered and then stopped at the city gates. The black-robed groom jerked his horse, and the sturdy black horse raised its hooves in a neighing sound, and then fell heavily, startling a cloud of dust.
Ian opened his mouth, this appearance is really gorgeous enough.
The groom pulled out of the carriage, and Ian noticed that he still had a black cloth tied around his left arm. Under the same black robe, you can't see it without looking closely. The door opened, and Arnold, the lord of the city, stepped out of the carriage with a serious expression, and Ian noticed that he also had a black cloth tied around his left arm.
"Someone has left this world. Dennis sighed softly.
Ian then remembered that a black cloth was tied around his left arm to pay tribute to the deceased. At a funeral many years ago, Ian had seen this black cloth tied to the left arm of each living like a blooming death lotus.
Ian didn't know, he just felt that the atmosphere was inexplicably sad, and his heart was a little empty, even if he didn't know who to grieve for.
"I'm sorry I'm late. Arnold said in a hoarse voice, "I should have come earlier, but—anyway, who hasn't arrived?"
One of the hunters replied, "Jeff Myers." ”
Arnold frowned, "Div, isn't he the leader, why hasn't he arrived yet?"
"Dear City Lord, are you looking for me?" At this moment, a joking voice came from above the crowd, and everyone looked up and saw Jeff Miles walking down the steps of the city wall, "Don't worry, City Lord, I don't like to be late, and this mission is extremely important to me. ”
Dennis whispered in Nicole's ear, "As I said, he's the oldest of all hunters. If this 'King Killing' mission is completed, I'm afraid he will be crowned a king. ”
Ian was standing right next to Nicole and heard Dennis' words. He knew the Lord, because he had met the Lord when he was in the Snow Mountain, Ludo Kraft, the old man who was called the Lord of the Plum Blossoms. Ian looked at Diff and felt that Rudo was much, much better than him.
Arnold was a little displeased, but didn't say much. Just a glance at the groom beside him, the groom nodded, returned to the carriage, and removed the black box carved with sunflowers from the carriage. It was the same as what Ian was carrying now, but it was different, and Def looked at the black box, and an imperceptible glint flashed in his eyes.
"I told you yesterday—"
"Don't worry, my lord, I'll take care of it, and I'll take care of it. Diff took the black box from the groom and carried him on his back, "But in fact it doesn't explode that easily, does it? ”
Arnold didn't say anything more, and Diff grinned, "If it's okay, we'll go first." ”
"You must—"
"On your way, hunters, don't be abandoned. Diff turned his head and waved his hand, and all the hunters stood up and followed him. The soldiers guarding the gates received Arnold's acquiescence and opened the gates. Diff walked out first, and the hunters followed one after another.
Arnold looked at their backs and didn't speak for a long time.
"He's rude, Lord Castle. The groom standing next to Arnold lifted his hat, revealing a shiny baldness, "Honestly, if I hadn't been able to beat him, I would have wanted to slap him just now." ”
"We can't help it, after all, he is the strongest force we have now. Arnold said, "I've seen his profile, and it's true that he's a high-level hunter in the name. If this mission is completed, he will probably be knighted. ”
"Lord Wang, Lord of the City, with all due respect, he is not as good as a leg hair of Lord Wangjue. Cologin snorted and said, "That's right, Lord Lord doesn't have as much hair as one of his legs. If it weren't for Lord Wangjue's source of dragon slayer, he wouldn't even dare to hit the road. ”
Arnold lowered his head, looked at the black cloth tied around his left arm, and whispered, "Yes, you're right." But so what, Lord Wangjue, he is gone after all. ”
