() Someone may be unconscious, but even if they leave, they are still the target of attention in the White Rose Chamber of Commerce. Not to mention that this goal also brings huge benefits, a wurm, and a king-level wurm, all kinds of essences after being purified by a lich, and some leftovers.

The seventeenth child of the Marquis of Shaw, Thomas? Shao Bo sat firmly in the chamber of commerce, in his own room, listening to various reports from his subordinates. Especially when the material from the Wurm appeared on the ground, his eyes almost widened, and he asked a protector who had wandered the dark world next to him.

"Could it be some other Earthwalking Dragon, not the one we know?"

"Are there any other dragons around here?" The old man, squatting by the bookcase and playing with a knife, asked rhetorically. Then he seemed to explain to himself, "Well, even if there are others." But at least they slaughtered an earth-walking dragon, you can't deny it. That thing isn't that easy to kill. ”

"Are you sure to take him down, by any means?"

"If you don't think I'll be able to do it, that guy won't be alive now, and he will be cleaned up by my peers a long time ago. I'm very modest to say that I'm very good, and I can even say that I am the best in this industry. But to deal with a lich and a magician who doesn't know how to do it, I can only advise you to stay away from them if you can't be their friend. In fact, I would do the same. ”

"What a disappointing suggestion."

"If you see what happened to McDonnell Douglas, I'm sure you'll agree with my suggestion. Although the guy who grew so big and would cry and go back to his mother deserved such an end. But that doesn't mean I want to have the same ending as him. ”

"What's the end? Missing? Who knows where they went, maybe everything is fine. ”

"It's not the outcome that matters, it's that we can't resist. There were no signs, no mana fluctuations, no incantations, not even how it happened. And what's the most interesting news, you know? ”

In the middle of speaking, the little old man who played with the knife stopped his movements, and his eyes sparkled after looking at the nobleman who had not yet received the title. Knowing the old man's somewhat bad personality, Thomas reluctantly asked, "Okay, okay, what's that interesting news?" ”

"Hey, hey, do you know how many people did a sneak attack in the middle of the night, while that person was sleeping, and then something happened."

"What's the matter?" Thomas asked perfunctorily.

"Poof, it's gone, just like what happened to that bearded bastard."

"Even if you're asleep, isn't there a flaw?"

"Yes, that's what I want to emphasize. What happened to that man was so weird that you couldn't even understand if it was the man's problem or if he had a lich protecting him. If you don't know who's doing the trick and who needs attention, don't mess with a magician...... Well, a bunch of magicians. ”

"Uh-huh."

"So, you well-fed and idle boy, why bother that magician? Want to get a share of that bounty feast? ”

"No, it's just that the woman he brought with him is prettier than me."

"A lich? Are you out of the blue? The little old man looked at the son of a nobleman who was pretending to be a debaucher.

"Have you ever slept with a lich?"

"Not really."

"Don't want to try it?" Thomas's words made the ugly old face even more strange, and he changed his words and said, "Forget it, when I didn't say it." Since you don't have a chance, stay away from him. I don't have to ask for the bounty, I have to ask for the woman. ”

"Boy, a sensible choice. I know you always make smart decisions. Retracting the knife, the old man, who was in good spirits and ready to run at any time, breathed a sigh of relief. What he is most afraid of is that this master provokes the other party and implicates himself. Fortunately, this one is not such a hard-mouthed person, and he can still tell the difference between strength and weakness.

But the other group of people is not so easy to be kind.

Under the protection of a group of followers, the old woman, who was barely able to walk with a cane, broke into a small fortress-like courtyard with a menacing attitude. Although there were warrior guards and apprentices of the owner of the small courtyard, a group of people either did not dare to come forward to stop them, or after standing up, they were beaten by the old woman with a wave of their palms and vomited blood, and they fell to the ground and snorted for a long time and couldn't stand up.

The old woman shouted all the way in her loud voice, which was completely different from Long Zhong's old state, "Horta, where is Horta." ”

"Granny Youjia, I'm here. Don't tear my house down, there's a lot of stuff I've worked so hard to collect. ”

A handsome male magician, who was a little older, walked out of the corner of the corridor and met the intruder. He walked out while wearing a rather peculiar star nightgown, and he could see that under the nightgown was his bronzed **.

In normal times, the old woman would not mind using a man who was much younger than her to nourish her eyes. But today is different.

A woman who was following the male magician also walked around the corner. She walked up to the magician in a similar robe and said affectionately, "My lord, who is this mother-in-law?" How dare you be so angry and offend your majesty. ”

Things were in a hurry, and the old woman who was in a bad mood didn't say a word, and when she raised her hand, it was a magic shock wave that caught people off guard. Directly knocked the poor woman to the wall, and the blood seemed to explode, staining the wall red. Only then did the old woman grit her teeth and say, "Shut up! Less nonsense! ”

Looking at his unfinished female companion, with a bloody appearance on the wall, Holta softened. said weakly: "Well, I personally hope that you will tell others to shut up first, and if the other party doesn't listen, then do it." I think this order will be much better. ”

"Shut up, too!"

At such a reprimand, Horta immediately closed her mouth and obediently arranged her clothes, not daring to show her dissatisfaction at all.

The star robe actually represents the classification he is good at, and the furnishings in the room are mostly related to the stars. But he was not an astrologer despised by the wizarding community. Holta? O'Briy is an even rarer and most respected soothsayer among the wizards, a figure who knows both the past and the future.

However, considering the many unpredictables of predicting the future, it can be said that there are no people who can make accurate predictions. Because as soon as the future is spoken, that future no longer exists. The understanding of the 'prophecy' of the people of the Lost Land is even more advanced than that of the earthlings.

But if you want to know the past that has happened, the magicians who can be called prophets are like video cameras in the weather zone. As long as there is a related object as an introduction, they can get everything related to that introduction. Of course, the price must be paid is not high, otherwise it will become a regular means of criminal investigation.

And this Horta . In Plzeň, O'Briany is the top of the Prophets. It's not a very important thing, it's not his turn to make a move at all; It will not be a small person or a small family who can invite him; And it's usually not a good thing to ask him to be moved.

The mother-in-law who broke into the door was Holta. One of O'Bria's old customers, and the kind he didn't dare to disobey.

Generally speaking, a prophet like him is almost instinctive to seek good fortune and avoid evil. Sometimes it only takes one inspiration and one step slower to turn things around. But what Granny You Jia is good at is a curse that is difficult for a prophet like him to avoid, and it is impossible to prevent it.

Of course, this mother-in-law often comes to the door in order to combine his abilities. Use some of the introductory techniques to find an unspecific object related to the event and then curse the other person. Such a combination of abilities really made the great magician called You Jia's mother-in-law more than once get rid of enemies who were hiding in the shadows and did not know their identity.

Sometimes they know the identity of the other party, but they are unable to appear in person; Or if she knows who it is but doesn't know where to hide, Granny Yujia will also come to Horta and use his power to curse the enemy she wants to kill.

In the beginning, Holta would also reject such things and use his powers to curse and kill others. But over time, once you get used to it, you won't be rejected.

I especially remember that at the beginning, when I met You Jia's mother-in-law for the first time, the other party offered a reward that was difficult to give up. At that time, I was tempted to refuse, and I went according to the original plan. At that time, the conditions proposed by the other party became two. One is a good reward, and the other is safe for his own life.

Not only for the sake of his own life, but also for the reward, it is not an exaggeration to say that Horta is responsive to this person. So when he saw You Jia's mother-in-law appear, he was quite welcoming to the other party.

It's like to resolve the previous embarrassment, Holta? Oberley spoke first: "Mother-in-law Youjia, who is in your way this time. ”

"My child, my most beloved child, is gone! It's gone! Although I was told that he was just missing and would come back to me sooner or later. But I had a feeling, a very unpleasant feeling, that my beloved child was dead. I hate, I hate! I will curse those who dare to kill my children, and let them live in pain and torment for the rest of their lives. ”

The old woman's emotional remarks also shook Horta? Aubrey. He was impressed by the big bearded boy. is obviously old, but his style of behavior is still like a child, willful and reckless. Especially when he caused trouble outside, when was he not looking for his mother to come forward to deal with the aftermath. In my life, I don't seem to have heard that guy do a good thing once.

It's surprising that people are gone, but it's not surprising. To be sure, Horta thinks it's a good thing that there is one less scourge in this world. Of course, these words are impossible to say. Because of the death of her only child, Mother-in-law You Jia, who had fallen into a semi-crazy state, gritted her teeth and said:

"I will curse the one who kills my child, I will curse the one who kills my child! All involved will go to hell and suffer endless torture! ”
