The Rat King was a talkative, and even when no one was listening, he chattered about all sorts of things in his sewer kingdom on the bar.

Ringer would occasionally answer him, and he would appear excited, and more words would pop out of his mouth, squeaking like an old wooden door that had been opened and closed repeatedly.

Ringer observed the Rat King, thoughtful. Although this mouse seems to be proud and arrogant, it may be very lonely, which is why it has such a strong desire to express itself.

The king who stands at the pinnacle of power is always lonely, and perhaps the king in the sewers is no exception.

Anyway, no matter what he says here, it won't affect his sewer kingdom.

The Rat King then talks about a strange thing that happened in the sewers recently.

"Two days ago, my soldiers went to a newly opened cake shop to collect taxes, and were discovered by the owner of the cake shop. At least at the time, his teammates thought he was dead. My head has exploded, how can I still live?

"But the next morning, the guy came back with a bloody head, which scared the rats who saw him."

Ringer showed a hint of interest and said, "Maybe it wasn't killed, but it was wounded." Maybe the cake shop owner thought it was dead too, so he threw it in the trash, and when it woke up, he went back on his own. ”

"No, you didn't see him with your own eyes, and after that Diao Man hit him with a stick, he must have stomped on him a few more times, and his internal organs were squeezed out. When he came back, he still had a bunch of sausages hanging on his stomach, and he didn't know that he thought he had picked up the sausages from the trash. ”

"Is it dead then?" Ringer asked.

"It's dead," the rat king took a sip of his drink, "but still moving, that's the strange thing." ”

"It's a strange thing." "How's it going?" ”

"Resting at home, I heard that the body has started to stink, but other than that, everything is normal."

"Could it be that the little mouse has eaten or drunk something strange, such as stealing some alchemy reagent?" Ringer speculated.

"No, no, no, I have long warned my people not to touch the things in the homes of magicians and alchemists, or they will be poisoned or turned into terrible monsters."

"Did someone cast a spell on him, necromancer or something?" Ringer glanced at Lan Ya, who quickly shook his head.

Of course, he didn't suspect Lan Ya, except for sleeping at night, Lan Ya basically always followed him.

Besides, with her love of cleanliness, she wouldn't be interested in a dead rat thrown in the trash.

"But what necromancer would be interested in a poor little mouse? Besides, it's back, and if it's really awakened by the necromancer, it should follow its master. ”

In the end, no one or one mouse discussed the result.

After the Rat King left, Ringer noticed Nilou with a mysterious smile on her face and asked, "Do you know what's going on?" ”

Nilou smiled, but said mysteriously, "After work, if you take a walk through the streets of Castalon, you may find something different. ”

"I know that too, come and ask me." Karina interjected suddenly.

Ringer looked at her.

"But it's best to ask in your bedroom, so I'll make it clearer." Karina laughed.

Ringer withdrew his gaze and decided to go to Castalon after work to see it himself.

。

The door was pushed open at the sound of wind chimes, and the skeleton maid Kani walked into the store with a bald head.

It can be seen that Elvie's spare bald head is well maintained, and the door of her head is polished and shiny, reflecting the light in the store.

"Hi, Ringer." Elvie said hello.

Ringer smiled and pulled out Elvi's seat, the little red bucket, covered with a wire strainer.

Carney respectfully placed Elvi's bald head on the bucket.

After Ringer finished serving Alvie, he remembered the strange thing that the Rat King had said earlier, and Elvi, as an elite of the undead, might be able to offer some advice, so he told him about the mouse.

When Elvi heard this, she smiled as mysteriously as Nilou.

"When some subtle changes occur, animals tend to notice them before humans, and by the time humans notice them, it's too late. In the shadows of that city, something like this may be happening. Elvie said gloomily. 33

Ringer thought for a moment, and it seemed that he still had to go to Castalon to see it for himself.

"By the way, are you okay? Not purified by the church, right? Ringer asked suddenly.

"Well, it's very good, baptized with the light every day, not to mention how comfortable."

"You don't want to take your body back?" Ringer placed the glass next to the little red keg.

This time, Ellevy didn't let Carney feed her, but opened her mouth to take a sip, and a line of wine flew out of the glass. The liquor slipped through her mouth, then under her neck, and dripped through the strainer into the barrel, making a ticking sound.

But she had already tasted the taste of wine, and because she had no digestive organs, she couldn't get drunk at all, and in that sense she was very good for drinking with only her head left.

"That's my gift to humanity, let them fiddle with it for a while, and when the time comes, I'll take it back. Maybe I'll have to ask you for help then, and you'll help me, right? ”

"Of course."

"Haha, what a good brother for me."

Elvie laughed heartily, and Ringer always felt that there was something else in her laughter, and not just because he didn't hesitate to agree to help her.

Ilvi quickly finished her glass, floated up, and asked Carney to pour the barrel back into the glass before starting the second round of drinking.

According to her way of drinking, one cup of wine can be drunk as ten cups and a hundred glasses, and she can even drink it forever as long as she wants.

"Miss Carney, would you like a drink?" Ringer said to Carney, who was standing aside.

"Don't kid, Lord Ringer, I'm just a skeleton, and drinking like this will only stain the floor here." Carney lowered her skeletal head.

"There was a lich who came to the store to drink not long ago, and guess how he got drunk?"

Carney shook her head.

"He changed into the way he was when he was alive and drank." Ringer said, "Canny can't use such spells?" ”

"That's a lich-sama, I'm just a skeleton maid, how could I have such a high-level spell."

"If the guest wants to drink, I can help you." At this moment, Nilou suddenly spoke.

"Huh?" Kani looked at Nilou in surprise.

Someone changed at the bar? What about the big blonde sister who doesn't have a good temper?

"Still don't need to......" Carney didn't want to do anything unexpected.

But then Elvi said, "Carney, come and have a drink with me, this is a reward for your hard work." ”

Kani immediately changed her words: "Yes, master." ”

Then he turned his head and bowed to Nilou and said, "Then I'm sorry for you." ”

"It's a trivial matter, give it to me."

Kani obediently reached into the bar with her right hand, and Nilou raised her hand to gently hold her slender white hand bones, and then Ringer saw that the flesh and blood between Carney's hand bones quickly grew, and in the blink of an eye, it changed from the white bones to a white and smooth hand, and the flesh spread along the arm bones, all over the body in a matter of seconds.

In just a few seconds, Carney went from a skeleton to a girl with beautiful blue eyes, wearing a black maid outfit, elegant and beautiful, the kind of perfect maid that can only be seen in the homes of top nobles.

Ringer had actually seen this appearance of Carney once, when he took her to the modern world not long ago to report to Elvie.

However, when he saw it again, Carney's vivid image still caught his eye.

In front of the TV, although his body was still facing the TV, the white bones whose head had been turned one hundred and eighty degrees shook his head regretfully and whispered to himself:

"It's a pity, I still prefer her explicit appearance."

After saying that, he turned his head and continued to watch TV.

What was on the TV was a freestyle extreme motorcycle championship.

Some people died, but not completely......
