Chapter 33: The Shell, the Cemetery
The arrival of Angus is indeed a bit distinctive. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThere are very few normal slaves in his place, and most of them are foreign objects like ogres. After asking for a while, I found out that the main customer of Angus is the gladiatorial arena, and the fight between monsters and people, and the fight between monsters and monsters has always been a favorite item for people to watch.
After looking around, Li Yun's eyes finally fell on the two women, although they were wearing ill-fitting cloth clothes and their faces were very haggard, Li Yun could still see at a glance that their temperament was good.
"The master really has a vision!" Angus said, "This mother and daughter are down-and-out nobles in the south, and they may have defected to their relatives! Who knows, anyway, they met robbers and finally sold them to me." The most rare thing is that in order to sell them for a good price, they have not been used, and the small one is even more a chick! To tell the truth, people like us who enjoy women going to prostitutes have hot and enthusiastic girls, and riding these women who are going to die or live may be able to change their tastes a little, but if they don't do it, they will kill people, and the losses will be too great! But yours is different! Didn't those aristocrats in the south laugh at the old men for hundreds of years as the descendants of lumberjacks? Let them also taste their own children and grandchildren under the means of a big master like you...... And the size takes it all......" Angus laughed, and that laughter was something that men knew meant.
Li Yun also smiled lightly, not knowingly lewdly, but laughing at such a plot There is no shortage in any world, as long as the title of human is hung, civilization and dirtiness always coexist. Bestiality, one of the characteristics that humans may never get rid of. "How much?" Li Yun asked.
"You just saved the villain's life, so you sold it half and gave it away, forty gold!" Angus stretched out four fingers like a small sausage, his expression seemed to be cutting meat, but Li Yun knew that a person like him would never give up the opportunity to rip off customers because of any kindness.
"What about the ogre?" Li Yun asked noncommittally.
"You're interested in that big guy too?" Angus looked the old man up and down again, and couldn't think of anyone who needed that kind of stunned green that couldn't be domesticated. "Could it be that the great nobles want to hold a private gladiatorial feast, or to satisfy their own hobbies? It is hard to say, who could have imagined that such an elegant-looking young man could have more strength than those orcs!" Angus speculated wildly in his fat head.
"Whatever you ask, I'll answer anything!" Li Yun snorted coldly.
"Yes, yes, sir, that big guy gets thirty gold, you know, it's not easy to catch this kind of adult big guy, we have to go ......" Li Yun looked at him, and Angus was silent.
"One hundred gold, the pair of rat men at the door are also mine! Send them to the Count's Court of Anvenska before dark, here are ten gold as a deposit. Li Yun casually threw the ten gold on a stool, turned around and left without looking back.
Behind him, Angus almost regarded Li Yun as his own father, "Congratulations to the eldest master, you are simply the embodiment of the bright body!" Angus bent over, until Li Yun completely disappeared, and then slowly put away his expression, "In the past few days, it has been rumored that the Anvenska family has a more luxurious and spacious fleet than the royal family? ”
Because of the arrival of Albert and the others, the house became lively. Especially at dinner, orcs and dwarves don't have the habit of being silent during meals.
"Oh! Praise Satam! I didn't think that one of the reasons Lord Andivan searched for plants everywhere was to make the spices used in the cooking of the food richer! Ever since I had a few meals at Boulder Castle, I longed day and night to taste this best food again. Solanda, that plate of potato stew is half as good as mine!" Bender yelled at Solanda with a knife and fork.
"Hmm! hmm! Eat an extra portion, and I'll have the strength to help you block the enemy's axe from behind!" It's just that he didn't dare to compliment his eating, and he took the plate and stuffed it into his mouth with wheat bread instead of a knife and fork, as if he didn't know what to chew it all about.
Stephanie and Lana were already full, and they talked happily in whispers on the newly made soft sofas, their eyes drifting to a few men from time to time, and occasionally a little coquettish, so that it was easy to guess that their topic was related to these men.
Hughes wore the same lean leather suit as the Guardian Knight outside, the only difference was that his leather coat was snow-white, and standing in front of the window, Hughes looked at the newly rising moon in a daze, not knowing whether he was acting cool or thinking about it. Unlike Albert and the others, Hughes still knows very little about the real situation, and in his concept, they are only working for Anvinska for the expensive armor.
"Mr. Andyvan!" Now people call Li Yun like this, Li Yun's pronunciation is really a bit awkward, and Li Yun doesn't want to cause too much trouble because of his name. "Miss Lana has become a lot stronger!" Albert said softly as he glanced at Lana diagonally across from him on the other couch.
"Uh-huh! A sad face won't solve the problem, but that's definitely the expression the enemy wants to see, so why let them be satisfied?" Shaking the red liquid in the glass, Li Yun secretly sighed that he would not be able to use the legendary magic of time, otherwise, these hastily brewed wines, aged for eight to ten years, would taste much better.
"Why did you buy that ogre and nezumi sir, but I'm just a little curious, because you never do anything useless, and I've learned your magic ......countless times, sir."
Waving his hand, Li Yun said, "It's okay, there's nothing to hide." You know, I'm good at spiritual magic, and one of the most important aspects of that magic is to communicate with the soul. It's a way to exercise, and it's also a practical ability. ”
Albert said in a moving voice, "Do you want to talk to the soul of Count Anvenska?
"Without that intention, I don't know how to find Patarek's soul in the middle of nowhere, and I even doubt that he is still on this plane. I'm just hoping to find a few strong enough souls who don't want to be lonely, and the ogres and nezumi will be their hosts. The ogre will be a siege vehicle-like assault weapon, and the two nezumi who work with him will be the Deathbringers of the raid. This combination can make up for their shortcomings, as ogres will be the best cover for the nezumi, and they will also protect the ogres from being plotted by others due to their lack of dexterity. ”
"Your idea is impressive, but, with all due respect, why are the hosts for those powerful souls not human but such piercing creatures?"
"I just need to make better use of their functions according to my needs, instead of doing them perfectly, after all, I will not do this kind of thing that may not be exchanged for any benefit except some gratitude, for the sake of some souls who have become a little biased by pain to have a body, and I will not do anything good except for some gratitude!" Another reason is that in the talented Nesman, he does not intend to reveal the qualities of dark magic, and there is no good guarantee that the 'new product' will not be discovered until it is completed.
Albert has to admit that Li Yun is a cautious devil who seduces you with an irresistible temptation while tightly wrapping an invisible rope around your neck. Although Li Yun did not say it, Albert believed that Li Yun must have other ways to control these soul hosts. In fact, from the very beginning, Albert guessed that Li Yun was likely to be related to some dark gods, but he was even more likely to hide himself.
Shortly after midnight, Li Yun wrapped himself in a wide black cloak and took advantage of the shadows to leave the Earl's Palace. Since he couldn't guarantee that the Misty Clan would not attack again on such a night, Li Yun was not prepared to spend too much time searching for souls. Fortunately, Nesmana has a good soul market, which is the Dead City located in the west of the city.
The Dead City is a cemetery surrounded by tall walls and surrounded by an artificial river several meters wide. For the megacity of Nesman, the number of people dying every day is also the highest among Nesser. The king did not want to go hunting in the countryside one day and find that the city he lived in was surrounded by graves, so the dead of Nesmail were buried here, and the prominence or mediocrity of his life was only a tombstone of a somewhat different quality.
The tall and solemn iron gate next to a chapel belonging to the Holy See of Light was the only gateway to the Dead City. The scale of the chapel is okay, and the sword-like spire bell tower reminds Li Yun of the familiar Gothic architecture of his hometown. However, the tower is only a drawing of its form, and its rudimentary structure cannot be compared with the Gothic architecture with its fine stone carvings.
When you come to the cemetery at night, the main entrance is never the first choice. Jumping up slightly, Li Yun floated across the artificial river and over the wall like a piece of cotton wool, and fell silently into the dead city.
The temperature inside the Dead City was noticeably low, and the moisture from the ground caused a thin layer of fog to float on the entire cemetery floor. Overall, the terrain within the Dead City is flat. Some abrupt hills are often accompanied by low iron railings of different shapes, and Li Yun knows that those are the graveyards of nobles, and they are still high in the sky after death, which can better satisfy the vanity of the living.
Under the bright moonlight, the cemetery is not very quiet, and the chirping of insects and the elongated cooing and cooing of night owls make it full of unique charm. For Li Yun, the dark and damp air here made him feel very comfortable, although no matter how fierce the sunlight was, it could not bring even the slightest harm to Li Yun, but it was impossible to change the habits of hundreds of years, and he still preferred this kind of place. Li Yun always felt that darkness could make him safer. Even in the daytime, if possible, he chooses to stand in those shadows.
Looking at the huge cemetery covering an area of dozens of hectares, Li Yun suddenly had a feeling that he didn't know where to start. Just when he was wandering around like a ghost, he unexpectedly found that he was not the only one who wandered around the dead city in the middle of the night. "Dark aura? It's interesting!" Li Yun pursed his lips and laughed silently.
