Chapter 8: The Small Town of Salem
When Aldevin returned to the town, it was dusk, and she stood by the pool in the middle of the square and watched the sun set, and in front of her was a long cobblestone street, mostly of stone and timber in two rows, and many of the shops on the street had already turned out their closing signs.

At dusk, the people of Salem are busy with their teeth at home, and only a handful of people choose to wander the streets after a full meal.
"Eldwin!" said an old man in his seventies on the street, waving to Eldwin with a cane.
"Mayor Mare?" Eldevin trotted up to the old man, greeted her with a hoarse scolding, "How many times have you said that you must never leave the house on a full moon night!, what if someone is dominated by blood and accidentally hurts you!?"
"But Mayor ......," Aldevin pursed his lips and said aggrievedly, "Why am I the only one in the town who hasn't awakened my blood?"
Hearing this, the old mayor's expression seemed a little dazed, and when he came back to his senses, he suddenly gently pressed his cane against Aldwin's ankle and said, "How do I know this, go home quickly, the sun is going down." ”
"Okay, okay, stay a little longer and you won't die. Aldwin complained and left, and the old mayor looked at her back and said helplessly: "I still remember when I found you under the sea cliff, you were still a baby lying in a boat, but I didn't expect to grow so big in the blink of an eye. ”
He sighed softly, then turned and staggered about, but he had only walked a short distance when he saw the people in the street looking sideways at the sky, and then a sound of horror suddenly sounded:
"Look, what's that!?"
"My Mary Sue, that's the Wizard Ship!"
"What are they here for!?"
............
The shouts attracted the people in the houses on both sides of the street, and for a while, the street was full of people, there were four or five hundred people, they looked at the magic guide ship that was gradually flying towards the island, almost all of them showed a look of nervousness, and panic instantly spread to the whole town.
The ship was large enough to cover the town square, with a golden statue of a bird embedded in its bow, a huge sail held up by the wind, and a longsword pattern that stood out in the setting sun.
After a while, the magic guide ship was moored on the beach east of the island, and a large number of gray-robed people walked down from the ship, the number was about five hundred, they were wearing robes and hats, only revealing sharp eyes and extremely cold faces, the back of the robe was painted with the sword of the embers, and they also had a double-edged sword with a scabbard tied around their waists, which invisibly exuded a murderous aura.
The speed of disembarking from the ship was uniform, and they quickly assembled on the beach, forming two rectangular formations, with a two-meter-wide Changsha corridor in the center, and strict discipline was not far behind even that of the army.
The next moment, the number five hundred people invariably put their right fist on their chests, revealing a solemn expression.
I saw two people slowly walking down the boat, one was wearing a blue brocade and purple robe, his shoulders were clasped with a gorgeous cloak painted with the sword of the embers, a ponytail was tied on the back of his head, his temples were already gray, and his long horse face was covered with wrinkles.
The other man was five meters tall, his body was like a little giant, his face had a hideous scar that extended from his left eye to the corners of his mouth, two chain belts stuffed with magic crystals hung in an X-shaped shawl on his naked upper body, a necklace inlaid with milky white gems hung from his thick neck, his lower body wore only a pair of gladiator shorts, and his thick legs were comparable to those of an elephant.
The same thick left arm was embedded with a small magic cannon, the dark cylindrical cannon was resting on the back of his arm, the muzzle of the cannon extended directly from the back of his hand, and there was a card slot in the back of the barrel, in which eight magic crystals of different elements were lying quietly.
"Can't you just stand a little wider!?"
The Changsha corridor listed by the five hundred people seemed a bit narrow and long for the little giant, and after his thunderous rebuke sounded, the old man in front of him glanced at him and said, "Stark, there is no need to be angry with them, when we find the dragon, you can vent your anger to your heart's content." ”
"Brother, Fekken, are you sure that dragon must be on this island?" Stark smirked.
"Are you doubting the abilities of a high-level magician?" said the blue-brocade purple-robed old man known as Feken said coldly, "My life detection technique can't be mistaken, there is only this island around, and there are no large sea beasts nearby, which can only mean that the dragon is on this island." ”
"The dragon?" Stark said unhappily, "One dragon isn't enough for me to kill." ”
Hearing this, Feken showed a deep cold smile: "That's easy, didn't you see a town in the middle of the island when you were in the air just now, now let's visit those locals, if they don't know each other, I think you can give the town a new look." ”
Stark sneered, "Whoa, do you mean to change it to purgatory on earth?"
............
"As I said, we don't have dragons here!"
The old mayor struck the ground with his cane, blowing his beard and glaring angrily, and the reason why his emotions seemed so agitated was that the sudden gray-robed men were going from house to house, and they were acting like bandits.
Previously, some of the grumpy townsfolk had chosen to resist, but without saying a word, they drew their swords and faced each other, and now all the townsfolk became honest, and they were gathered in the town square, watching the gray-robed men collect their belongings from their homes.
"I said, old fellow, that dragon must be on this island, and if you continue to be hard-mouthed, I will give you a taste of what it means to be better than dead. Feken threatened by tugging at the old mayor's collar.
"How many times do you want me to say that we don't have dragons here!" said the old mayor, stiffening his neck.
"Oh, is it?" said Feken letting go of the old mayor, then smoothing his gray sideburns with both hands, and then sneered, "Stark, it's time for you to show off your skills." ”
"Oh, I said it should have been this a long time ago!" Stark roared, jerked his left arm up, and with a click, the barrel of the cannon fell back a few points along the base, and after returning to its original position, the light elemental crystal in the card slot was also embedded in the energy center slot.
Stark pointed the cannon at the townspeople, and then there was a panicked scream from the crowd, and at the moment when the magic cannon was ready to fire, a small stone suddenly smashed into Stark. With a thud, the boulder fell to the ground, and Stark's forehead was stained with dust.
"I'm going to kill you!" Stark's glaring eyes turned to a blonde girl in a floral dress, and before her stone-throwing arm could fall, the little giant turned its cannon on her.
"Eldwin!" screamed an obese middle-aged woman.
"Run, run!!" exclaimed a sturdy middle-aged man.
Their shouts made Eldwin's head blank and she tried to flee the crowd as she came to her senses, but Stark kept aiming at her.
Suddenly, there was a bang, and a dazzling light bullet suddenly shot out of the cannon chamber, grazing Aldwin's body and knocking down a small cabin, and the shock wave caused by the explosion shook the weak girl several meters away, and the next moment it fell to the ground like a falling goose.
Suddenly, a small and delicate golden snub-nosed monkey sprang out of the crowd, and it galloped to Aldwin's side with its hands and feet, shaking its little master vigorously with a pair of small hands, and from time to time a burst of grief and sorrow came out of its mouth.
But no matter how much it pulled, its little master still collapsed to the ground scarred, without a trace of life at all, and in front of the burning wooden house, Naruto Monkey died, looking desolate......
"I'm going to kill you!"
The middle-aged man glared at the bloody eyes and roared, grabbed a pitchfork on the ground and threw himself at Stark, but the two quick-eyed gray-robed men worked together to knock him to the ground, one of them stomping on his head and holding a sword against his neck.
"Jack!" the middle-aged woman covered her mouth and said in horror, the middle-aged man known as Jack turned his head to look at her with difficulty, and Huo Ran sobbed: "Morty, I love you......"
"Kill him for me!" Stark's face grimaced, for from the day he served as the Pope's deacon, killing a civilian was a matter of mouth for him.
When the gray-robed man with a sword was about to cut Jack's neck, a shout suddenly sounded: "Stop me!"
I saw that a woman appeared in the back of the gray-robed man's camp at some point, and seeing that the other party was wearing a violet robe decorated with sunflower patterns, Feken looked shocked and said, "Sunflower and purple robe, how could the magician of the Caltalia Academy appear here!?"
