Section 23: Temporary seclusion

On the side of a sparse forest path outside Silvermoon City, the four Williams, who were supposed to find a place to abscond, sat on the side and stopped to rest while talking and laughing.

Yasuna was puzzled and said, "William, how can you be sure that this time it is Hiren who is calculating you again?"

William smiled: "I can still tell the difference between a person who is physically exhausted after a real long journey and a pretender, although Hiren is dressed very similarly, but the blood and qi (not qi and blood) in her body are abundant and abnormal, and it is definitely not something that a person who rushes back to rescue after a long time can have." What's more, there is some information you provide, which can be easily judged with a little analysis. ”

"Oh?" an inexplicable color flashed in Yasuna's eyes, "I don't know what you mean by 'blood qi', do you mean physical strength?"

William said ambiguously: "Well, sort of"

"And what's next for you?"

"Are you going to?" William couldn't help sighing, but he didn't answer Yasuna's question directly, "I think I'm just here, the world is unknown, I should have covered up and acted in a low-key manner, but because of carelessness, I was involved in the rights and wrongs of several big forces, alas, I originally wanted to pretend to be a fledgling stupid boy, but now I think about it, but I miscalculated, the so-called innocent and guilty, if I am a cowardly and ordinary ordinary person, how can I be remembered all the time." ”

Yasuna said, "I really don't understand what you're saying. ”

"Okay, you and Sheren are both human spirits, and you know best what you think in your heart. Hmph, although I don't know what Helen is doing behind this time, I think there is something to ask me to help with, but even the Moon Bridge, which is such an important building in Silvermoon City, can be sacrificed, so it can be seen that its plan must be extraordinary. If I really continue to pretend to be stupid and follow her wishes, I am afraid that in the end, even my life may be taken, and this time I took the opportunity to deliberately fall out with her, just to jump out of the game and take the opportunity to get out. ”

"You mean you're not going to help Heeron?"

William shook his head and smiled: "Help still has to help, after all, it's rare to get acquainted, and you always have to talk about it, but how to help when the time comes, and to what extent you help, you have to have the final say on me." ”

Yasuna then asked, "So what do we do now?"

William looked up at the few black dots that were hovering in the sky in the distance and said, "I think that the woman who broke my neck bone at this time has almost woken up, and these 'followers' should also be about to receive the order to return, after this incident, Hiren should not come to bother me again in a short time." Let's go, let's find a place to settle down and have a good time. ”

In the castle of the Ladies Academy in Silvermoon City, Hiren said to Erastro, "It seems that it was just a false alarm, and now that Linx is safe and sound, call everyone back." ”

Linx, who was deaf and moaning next to her, said angrily: "What is a false alarm, my neck is broken like this, and it is considered safe and sound? Do you know that bastard really wants to kill me, damn it, I will not be able to spare him." Gotta send someone to get that damn William back. Ouch - it hurts me, it hurts" Linx, who was overly excited, accidentally touched the deviated neck bone, and immediately screamed in pain.

Erastro smiled gloatingly, "I said that you would be treated, but you didn't listen, you have to hold on here." Look, it doesn't taste good. ”

Hillen stepped forward and said with a smile while helping Linx straighten her neck: "William is merciful this time, if he really wants to kill you, why bother to break your neck and punch you directly." ”

Linx, who was being pulled by Hillen's neck bone, couldn't speak for the time being, and when she spoke, the wound hurt badly, and she could only snort weakly. Hillen said: "Don't be unconvinced, William's strength I know best, when he fled on the spine of the world, even the adult frost giant couldn't withstand his two punches, and was directly beaten to vomit blood and die, not to mention you, a delicate and expensive mage?"

Linx, who didn't dare to cause the wound too much, could only argue weakly: "What is the delicate body, I am a powerful magic knight, and you underestimate me too much, right?"

Erasdra laughed, "Yes, you are a knight as powerful as Ros, but you don't rely on the constant magic that your sister gave you?" ”

Linx said angrily, "You're the one who is as powerful as what you just said, Cole's Horn?" I heard you right, no wonder, no wonder, all my spells can't be used when that kid makes a move." Damn, you sisters have been hiding it from me so much, and you are only saying it now, but let me think about it, is that the little girl wearing it on her head?

Hiren glared fiercely at Erastro, who had slipped out, and the latter could only smile bitterly. Hillen poured a bottle of special healing potion into Linx's mouth, and first laughed, "You didn't ask, why did we tell you?" and then turned his face and said angrily: "Besides, I haven't settled accounts with you yet, who told you to eat enough to prop up a sideways kick, and you ruined your good plan"

After drinking the potion, the bones had begun to heal, and Linx immediately smiled and said, "I didn't want to help." Hehe, hehehe, by the way, it is said that Cole's Horn is very mysterious, and almost restricts all spells, since you have been with that little girl for so long, you must know the true function of Cole's Horn. Hillen rolled his eyes and didn't bother to pay attention to this woman who was hundreds of years old and hadn't been in shape yet.

Erasdra said with a little headache: "Now that things have developed to this point, what should I do next? ”

Hillen shook his head and said, "No, you don't know Cole's Horn, it's not for everyone. Although I haven't fully figured out the specific utility, I can guess it. According to my observations, all spells that have malicious intent on Mi Sha'er are directly reflected to the caster, and spells cast by people who make Mi Sha'er angry, scared, disgusted, or have other negative emotions will generally be invalid immediately, and of course there are some other minor problems, which will be discussed later. ”

"Originally, according to my plan, even if William knew that we deliberately set a trap, he would have to drill into it, I know best what this kid is thinking. Speaking of which, Hillen again

glared at Linx fiercely, "I didn't expect Linx to intervene so that William seized the opportunity to deliberately turn his face and trick us, it seems that he has guessed my intentions." Alas, if you really want to do it, although you can succeed, you will inevitably pay a heavy price, and you have done so much foreshadowing, it is really worth the loss. Linx was stared at by Hillen, her neck shrinking, and she kept shaking her head.

Hillen said again: "Let's put this matter aside for a while, William is a smart man, they won't go too far, now withdraw the people sent out first, and then find a few harpists to keep an eye on them, and wait for a while." ”

Erasdra nodded and said, "Well, that's right, you go back to the Valley of Shadows first, everything here is with me, and you can't make a mistake." Trist and the others are about to return from Callinsan in the south, and they seem to have a good relationship with William, and this time I am going to gather people to completely recover the Secret Silver Hall, and maybe I can ask Trist to invite William to help. ”

Hillen said: "One month, when I take care of the affairs of the Shadow Valley, try to rush back within a month." There is no need for William to participate in the reconquest of the Secret Silver Hall, he will have more important things to do, and you know how to continue the future. ”

Erasdra smiled and said, "Don't worry, everything will go according to plan, let's go, I'll send you." Ignoring Linx on the side, the sisters walked out.

Behind her, Linx said anxiously, "Wait a minute, I still have something to ask, how many things are you hiding from me?"

A few days later, in the Supreme Palace of Silvermoon City, Erastro was sitting in a chair listening to his men's report: "Honorable lady, those people stopped in the hills, and they lived in an abandoned lumberyard. ”

"Well, well done," said Eraszowen. It's been hard this time, so let's go down and rest. ”

The guard in charge of delivering the message couldn't help but be excited when he heard this, and he opened his mouth several times to say something, but finally he held back a sentence: "Yes, noble lady." ”

Erasdra smiled as the loyal guard walked out of the room, turned to the secretary standing aside, and said, "Go and inform the Thorn Bird that you will accept William." Tell him that he doesn't have to have any purpose at first, just need to have a good relationship with them and take care of these outsiders. Forget it, I'll go myself. ”

Silvermoon is a multi-sect city, where the Druids who believe in Sivanus and his daughters are not small, and their perceived logging practices as destroying nature are resisted, so many lumberyards have to be forced to close.

It was this ruined lumberyard where William and the others stood, and the dilapidated lumberjacks' lodging huts were in disrepair and decayed, and many rat weasels used it as a habitat. However, this did not bother William, and he even demolished the entire wooden house and rebuilt it, and William cut large strips of wood into cones and smashed them into the earth, which was used to strengthen the foundation instead of cutting the earth.

Huge logs were cut down from the woods and dragged here, dissected into heavy planks and beams, and the scraps were stored as ignition materials. William himself has many titles such as chief designer, carpenter, and master master, Yasuna is the handicap, Phinea is a small worker, and as for Millet Sha'er, she is a troublemaker who jumps up and down and can't stop jumping up and down, and adds a little trouble from time to time, of course, many times she is still relatively well-behaved, such as when sleeping.

Although no one here is a professional, William relied on the impression of the mud house he had seen in the countryside when he was a child, and after more than ten days of hard work, he finally built a decent house after several failures.
