A black-haired crow crossed thousands of mountains and rivers to Dlaman City. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the magnificent wizard's hall, the extravagant decoration reveals the unique taste of the palace owner. Huge beeswax chandeliers hung above the dome, the bright red marble floor shone like mirrors, and thirty black crystal columns rose to the top, but the man on the throne was not Ryan.

An old man sat majestically, dressed in an inky robe with a hood that cast his face into the darkness, and Lai stood beside him meekly like a rabbit. The black crow stopped on Ryan's shoulder, and he carefully ripped off the parchment note from the little yellow paw and handed it to the old man, who squinted slightly and opened the note.

'My lord, things are going a little unexpectedly, I saw two keys, and even more unbelievable is that the wolf pattern of one of them has been unlocked. ’

The old man's wrinkled hand was holding the parchment letter, his thumb and forefinger kept rubbing the handwriting on it, his face hidden in the darkness could not see the expression clearly, he seemed to be thinking about something, and the atmosphere in the silent hall was strange. Lai An stood silent, he looked at the paper letter in the old man's hand, the letter slowly left the old man's hand, floating in the air, and the flame slowly ignited from the bottom.....

Thousands of miles away on the continent of Sumer, the sunset is like a gold coin thrown below the horizon by time. Before it was completely dark, the two men walked into a two-story wooden house in the slums of Nipur City.

A washed bandage was ripped off the drying pole, and Selsey used the dim candlelight to help Eren bandage the arrow wound on his left arm.

"Doesn't your arm hurt?" said Sersi, puzzled.

"Nonsense!"

"Then why drag me around all afternoon, is the residence of those nobles so important?"

Alan slumped in the shabby chair, his face was pale, and his face was full of displeasure, "Selsi, I have lived for twenty-six years, a full twenty-six years, and I have never seen a person like you!"

Sersi skilfully wrapped the bandage and pouted, "Really, what kind of person am I?"

Alan pointed to the pile of food on the table with his right hand, "You spent me half a gold coin, and now you are bandaging my wound with a bloody bandage, you should honestly tell me whose blood is on this old bandage." ”

"Hmm..... If I'm not mistaken, it just served a skinny old mare. Sersi knotted the bandage, "Alright, it's time for dinner, I can't wait!"

Alan tried to move his left hand, and it seemed that the cold arrow did not hurt his bones. He picked up the wine on the table, uncorked it and took a sip, the rich aroma sliding down his tongue to his stomach, and Selsi sat on the floor, gulping down the food on the table.

"Alan, you seem to be rich, your family must have had a lot of status in Assyria!" Sersi picked up a piece of cottage cheese and dipped it in garlic paste and put it on a slice of bread, "When you were at the station in the afternoon, you said that you came here for revenge, can you tell me about your family? And your sword, don't pretend that nothing happened, everyone saw it, the sword glows, and it repairs the cracks." ”

Alan took a sip of red wine, took a green olive and threw it into his mouth, "The family is ruined." He leaned back in his chair and shook his legs, "As for the sword..... I don't know. ”

Sersi chewed the bread in his mouth, the spicy and rich aroma of the cheese kept caressing his taste buds, and before he could swallow the food in his mouth, he reached out and pulled down half of the roasted orange quail.

"You can just say it's your secret, you don't want to share it with anyone, there's no need to be perfunctory with me, really, I don't mind. After saying that, Sersi took a bite of the roasted quail, and the thin, crispy quail meat made him unable to stop his mouth.

Alan sat up straight, reached for a slice of baked pear, dipped it in Nippur's characteristic squirrel gravy and placed it on a slice of bread, and was about to put it in his mouth when a strange birdsong was heard outside the house.

'Cuckoo-cuckoo-'

"Damn, someone's coming to grab dinner with us!" said Sersi as he blew out the oil lamp on the table, and the cabin instantly plunged into darkness.

There was the sound of going up the stairs from the corner of the house, and Aiden, who was carrying the Sombra longbow, walked into the house with ease.

"You two extravagant and corrupt fellows, I smell it before I even enter the house!" Aiden sat down in his chair, picked up a bottle of red wine and uncorked it.

"Why are you here so early, is dinner at Ferry Manor already over?" Alan asked indistinctly, chewing on his food, "No one is following you today?"

Aiden picked up a quail egg with sauce and put it in his mouth, "Where did you buy this quail egg, it tastes great!" He took a sip of wine and rushed the chewed egg into his stomach, "Fellowo went to the garrison to treat the army, I was left in the room, the servant only brought a few slices of bread and a glass of berry wine, it seems that he doesn't trust me very much." ”

"Shouldn't we get down to business?" Sersi took a long sip of wine and swallowed all the food in his mouth, burping contentedly.

"You're okay with the injury on your arm, right?"

"It's fine, but luckily you didn't shoot that arrow. Alan put the bottle on the table, "The situation is a bit tricky now, I duel with Kenny today, I wanted to clear our relationship, but his eyes look a little strange....."

"What does this have to do with the eyes? The lord almost killed you today. Aiden interrupted.

"No, I saw a group of fighters at the Colosseum yesterday, they were willing to be sold as goods, they were the same as Kenny today, their eyes were blank, as if they had been given some strange potion, I don't know what it was, but what is certain is that he must be in some trouble. Alan leaned back in his chair and looked at the beams of the cabin, the blank eyes of the fighters in his mind.

"Since your friends are in the same condition as those fighters, we'll go to the Colosseum tomorrow to find out. Sersi took over.

"I'm sorry, I'm afraid I'll have to leave this matter to you. Alan came back to his senses and added, "Because Aiden and I have to sleep during the day tomorrow." ”

"Sleep?" Aiden looked at Alan in the moonlight, "Why do I have to sleep during the day tomorrow?"

"Because we're going to do something exciting tonight, I'm afraid we won't have time to sleep. ”

"You'd better be clear, or I won't go with you. The lord once commanded me....."

"Have you eaten enough?" Alan interrupted Aiden.

"Uh..... Not full. Aiden shook his head.

"Then save your stomach and eat it tomorrow. ”

After Allen finished speaking, he took out a narrow parchment roll from his jacket pocket, printed it with the moonlight shining out the window, and muttered to himself, "One, two, three..... Twenty-seven. Then, he stood up and handed the scroll to Aiden, "Time may be a little tight, there are twenty-seven people on this, and I will bury them all tomorrow before the sun rises.....
