Late at night, the campsite in the woods on the south bank of the Iss River was quiet.

Except for a few mercenaries who were keeping vigil and keeping watch, most of the rest had already slept.

In particular, the soldiers preparing for the night operation, Alaina, the orc Ritter, and the paladin Aroline, had almost rested for more than eight hours.

Right now, I'm sitting in front of the campfire, munching on freshly made stews, broths, and rusks in my bowl.

The paladin Aroline, in particular, looked visibly nervous, and almost spilled the soup bowl in her hand several times.

After eating her share of food, she asked impatiently, "Hasn't Soth woken up yet?" ”

The soldier shook his head slightly: "Not yet. I just went to the carriage to take a look, and the master seemed to be dreaming. But counting the time, I should wake up soon. ”

"Dreaming?"

Alena froze slightly.

Because in her impression, Zuo Si's sleep condition has always been surprisingly good.

Even in the event of an accident or a thrilling battle, the young Brigade Mage was able to fall into a deep sleep when he needed to.

Not to mention dreaming, even getting up at night to go to the toilet rarely happens.

Alena once suspected that in her master's consciousness, there was no tension or anxiety at all.

No matter what happens, you can always maintain a calm and indifferent attitude to solve the problem.

"That's right! Dream! And it's supposed to be a nightmare. I could vaguely hear him muttering something all the time. However, because the sound is too small and too indistinct, it is not clear that it can be heard clearly. ”

The soldier didn't hide anything, and he told everything he knew.

Just when Alena wanted to continue asking, Zuo Si finally stepped out of the carriage specially prepared for herself.

His improvement did not look very good, not only did his eyes appear slightly puffy, but he kept kneading his eyebrows with his hands.

"Master, are you alright?"

The loyal soldier stood up on his own initiative, his eyes full of concern.

"Don't worry, I'm fine, I just didn't sleep well. However, the spell slots have all recovered, which is a blessing in misfortune. ”

Zuo Si shook his head slightly, walked straight to the campfire and sat down, took out his own special bowl, and scooped a spoonful of steaming broth from the pot.

After a few sips of hot soup, his spirit was noticeably restored.

"Are you dreaming?"

The outspoken Alena asked curiously.

Zuo Si carefully drank the soup while holding the bowl, and responded disapprovingly: "Yes! Had a rather absurd dream. In my dream, I fought with a wounded blue dragon and finally managed to tear a piece of flesh from his body, and then woke up. ”

"Hah! It's because you're facing a red dragon, so even you're nervous? Alena laughed heartlessly.

"You think I'm going to be scared of a red dragon?" Zuo Si asked a meaningful rhetorical question.

With that strange thing, Vermes was basically no different from an enlarged version of a pet dog in front of him.

Compared to the red dragon, he felt that this dream had something to do with the ability to transform into a half-dragon using the [Dragon Glove]. …

Especially after the battle, the inexplicable greatly improved basic attributes,No matter how you look at it, it's a bit abnormal.。

However, at the moment, Zuo Si did not have time to study the secret of this magic glove, so he could only put it aside for the time being.

After all, it doesn't hurt to improve your basic stats.

Once you've settled in Askatra, you'll find another chance to find out what secrets this thing is hiding.

Alena stared at Zuo Si's eyes for half a minute before she said in a very playful tone, "That's not easy to say.

Everyone has something to fear in their hearts to a greater or lesser extent.

Dragon-slaying warriors who dare to face dragons may be frightened by a bug falling from the roof on weekdays;

A general who has won a hundred battles on the battlefield may return home and be frightened by his wife's angry roar.

I think even you must have something to be afraid of.

Someday, I'll find it out and scare you hard. ”

As the so-called mentally ill people have a wide range of ideas, mentally handicapped children have a lot of joy.

Alena, who is obviously in the chaotic camp, is a little more serious when fighting.

On weekdays, it's basically this picture that I want to have some fun for myself all the time.

After so many days of getting along, Zuo Si has long been accustomed to her nonsense, and rolled his eyes angrily: "Then you can look for it slowly, remember to tell me if you find it." Also, take out the wine you secretly hid in your backpack, and don't think I didn't see it. ”

"Huh?! You...... How did you find out? Alena panicked.

You must know that the bottle of wine was stolen from the cabinet behind the bar while the bartender was not paying attention when she was staying at the Mannon Hotel.

"You're not a professional thief. Who can you hide with that lame stealing skill? What's more, do you think that bottle of wine was really stolen? Naive! I've already paid for you. Zuo Si was a little speechless and held his forehead and explained.

As for the funny character of his first entourage, he really didn't know what to say.

The only thing to be thankful for is that Alaina's side is Neutral Chaos, not Evil Chaos.

Otherwise, Zuo Si estimated that his body would be bald before he became an adult.

"Damn! No wonder I always feel that since last night, the way you look at me is wrong. ”

Seeing her little secret being exposed, Alena couldn't help but whisper a complaint.

Reluctantly, he took out the bottle of spirits that was sold for 15 gold coins at the Mannon Hotel, using wine as a raw material and distilled and fermented through a series of complex processes.

According to the name of the earth, this bottle of wine should be called "brandy".

But the locals of Manon have given it a better name, "Extinguishing the Fire".

Mainly because this distilled spirit has a lot of stamina and always makes people get drunk before they know it.

Looking at the amber liquid in the bottle, Alena clearly showed a look of regret and unwillingness.

Immediately after, she unscrewed the plug herself, raised her head and poured several sips before reluctantly handing it to the soldier beside her.

The latter silently took a sip before handing it to the orc next to him.

Ritter took it and raised his head and took a sip, then said with a smile: "Thank you! There's nothing quite like sipping a sip of a strong liquor on a night like this. ”

In this way, except for Zuo Si, everyone sitting in front of the bonfire quickly drank the whole bottle of wine one by one.

Stimulated by alcohol, they quickly became excited, who were still a little sleepy.

After Zuosi finished dinner, the team members of the operation came to the bank of the river, rode on the back of the manticore, flew over the river, and landed in Myratma, a city surrounded by an army of monsters.

Spellcasters like Zuosi and Alaina, who don't have any weights or armor on them, can carry almost two at a time with the weight carrying capacity of a manticore.

In contrast, a soldier who wears a full-body heavy armor can barely carry one at a time.

It took several trips back and forth, and the group of five people all landed on the empty street.

Of course, the price is to make the manticore tired enough.

In addition, it was not suitable to participate in the next operation, so it was sent by Zuo Si to rest in the woods outside the city.

Due to the darkness at night, no one noticed that there were a few more uninvited guests in the city.

Quite the opposite!

The soldiers who stood on the city walls and were in charge of the vigil focused all their attention on the camp of the monster army.

Once there is a little wind and grass, there is immediately a burst of chickens and dogs jumping on the city wall. . .
