Chapter 82: Rumors
From the beginning of the battle until the end of the battle, Eric and Stewart did not know what each other's names were.
Looking at the corpse's face full of unwilling eyes, Eric said in his heart: "What an unscrupulous enemy, fortunately, Lao Tzu is not a righteous gentleman, he also mixed in the streets back then, but his head hurts so much!"
When the "Forbidden Light" magic scroll was released by Stewart, Eric sensed that there was something wrong with the blood spit out by the enemy, but he didn't expect it to be a poison that paralyzed the body, and it took effect quickly.
Since Eric's body had not fully recovered, he did not dare to use magic casually.
The "Wind Shield" was not used in battle, because it was afraid that the spirit would be injured and the flaws would be exposed. Unexpectedly, in the end, he was forced by the enemy to use magic.
Although it only activates magic items, the "soul moth" that crosses the level makes Eric feel the illusion that his soul is being torn apart, and Eric is sure that if his soul is not much tougher than the average person, he will lose his combat effectiveness at that time.
When Stuart was hit by the "Soul Moth", Eric gave the opponent a fatal blow with his spirits, and he was not sure how much the "Soul Moth" would have on his enemies.
Pulling out a bottle of "Primary Mental Recovery Elixir" and drinking it, Eric closed his eyes and rested, feeling weak and weak from Stuart's poison.
With the fight constantly replaying in his head, Eric checked to see if he had any shortcomings, but fortunately, he had been cautious throughout the fight.
From the pride in Stewart's eyes at first sight, to the unwillingness in the eyes of the other party's corpse at the end, this made Eric put away a little bit of his arrogance.
Stewart's strength is not weak, it should be said that it is strong, but there is often more than one factor that determines the outcome of the battle.
Feeling that he could still walk, Eric immediately stood up, then scavenged Stewart's belongings, and hung the dagger and crosssword around his waist.
Before leaving, Eric piled Stewart's corpse and the contents of the basement together, poured oil on it, and used the "Tongue of Fire" to burn it all to the ground.
"Refining the Corpse Golem" was also thrown into the fire, and Eric had stored all the contents in his head, so there was no need for this kind of thing to stay in the world.
Now Eric understands why the priest didn't finish his sentence in the first place, apparently the priest knows the origin of the corpse puppet, and if he told Ina the whole thing, I'm afraid Ina would go crazy on the spot.
Rice's house was also set on fire, and when the patrolling vigilante was caught by the fire, Eric ran towards Rice's house with a bucket full of water, shouting, "It's on fire!"
The security team is also busy fighting fires, and Rice's house is very hot, it is in a densely populated area, so it is easy to cause fires, and if the damage is large, those officials will not let the security team go. Because not only can you not collect taxes, but you also have to pay for them.
Population is wealth, and the more people produce, the more they can exploit at the top.
Eric only took a moment to get amused, and returned home from the chaotic crowd.
"Fortunately, I set a fire, but I didn't expect that in the end, I couldn't even cast the zero ring magic, this poison is really powerful for his grandmother, and my spirit is paralyzed. Eric fell asleep on the bed.
Eric also wanted to use the "contempt" technique to walk home, and when he came, he didn't need to use the "contempt" technique because there were a few people in the security team who were not easy to fool.
Unexpectedly, Stewart's poison could even paralyze his spirit, and when Eric wanted to cast magic, he would fall asleep, and his mental power would not obey his own command at all.
The 7th day of the next bud month, (i.e. 7th of May)
Eric spent nearly a month in quiet for nearly a month, during which time he only walked between the Bard's Academy, the tavern, and his home, during which time he was extorted once after taking a dividend from Romeo and Juliet.
Urga sent someone to show up at his door on time, and this time he didn't come.
Even Caroline knows, but there is no way, the county officials are not as good as the current management, these gang members in Laika City are all extremely vicious, and the real bosses rarely come forward, plus they collude with the officials to become annihilated, so civilians really can't do anything about these people.
Today is the last scene of Romeo and Juliet, and Eric arrives early at the Tranquility Harbour Opera House to play Romeo and Juliet at the end of the play.
Along the way, many nobles' deep resentful women looked at Eric with teasing eyes after seeing him.
Eric finally knew how popular "Romeo and Juliet" was, and the performance that should have ended long ago was delayed until today to usher in the last scene.
In order to give the best performance, Santos personally rehearsed. The strict style of conduct and the high requirements for art made the city lord's youngest daughter Mi Rui bitter for rehearsals.
Miri is the actor of "Juliet".
"Hey, Eric, you're finally here! I thought you wouldn't be here any time but to get the money. Men should be generous and don't take money so seriously. Miri, who met Eric, said.
"What a bad luck!" muttered Eric, who really didn't want to meet Miri, who was always on top of her all day and liked to tease people.
Seeing that Eric ignored her, Miri smiled indifferently: "No matter how much the toad can jump, it can't jump to the height of a swan." ”
With that, Eric stumbled on his feet and almost fell.
Now there is a story circulating in Laika City: When Lord Eric was working as a servant at Tulip Manor, he had a crush on Sophia, the owner of the manor, and "Romeo and Juliet" was born.
This story touched Sophia, and Sophia would visit the stables where Eric had done every day. There are all sorts of details, and it seems that every time Eric peeks at Sophia, these people are standing on the sidelines.
Because of this rumor, Sophia has been deliberately keeping her distance from Eric.
This makes Eric amused, don't these nobles think of something else after dinner?
And Sophia's reaction is also very strange, she specifically talked to Eric once, telling Eric that there are some things that cannot be forced, people in two worlds cannot come together, and her dream is to become a powerful knight like her ancestors.
The ancestor of the Tulip family was a female knight, and it is said that she was also a legendary knight.
It's a pity that Sophia and Eric's one-on-one conversation was accidentally bumped into by the good guys, and this rumor made a bigger fuss.
"Miri, let me tell you now, music is my lover, and art is my home. So stop making fun of Sophia and me, she's the 'tulip' of the empire or your friend, and you don't always have to be like those long-tongued women. After Eric finished speaking, he turned and left.
Miri, on the other hand, turned blue at Eric's words.
"What a bold man, a commoner who had been a slave, would dare to speak to Lord Miri like this. "A few aristocratic youths wanted to take the opportunity to show their heroism and motioned to the guards around them to teach Eric a lesson.
"Stop!" a figure scurried into the crowd, knocking the guards to the ground in a few blows.
"It seems that I, a second-order knight, are not old yet!hahaha!" The person who came was Santos, the head of the Bard Academy.
