Chapter 14: Knotting, Growth, Investigation, and .....

"My lord, how about this room, I have replaced all the items with new ones, if it doesn't work, I will ask someone to change it again."

Bill took Caleb back to the castle and came to a large, lavishly decorated room, where he cautiously asked Caleb.

Caleb walked into the room and looked at it, he didn't care much, it was the same in any room, as long as there was a bed.

"It's already good, I don't pick, help me prepare the bathwater, and a light set of clothes and a black cloak."

"That's good, I'll get someone ready, please wait."

Bill breathed a sigh of relief, saluted Caleb and hurried out, he was now more and more afraid of Caleb.

Now that the supplies are available, Bill has to hurry up and arrange for the men to move to the other side of the city wall.

Taking advantage of the time he was waiting, Caleb began to use the Bug Splitting Technique to split new bugs, and now that he had money, he could drink the magic potion vigorously, and he didn't have to wait for the magic to automatically recover, and the speed was much faster than before.

When Caleb was splitting the bugs, there were two people with calm faces on the cliff outside Grey Wood, they looked at Grey Wood silently, and finally Marcy couldn't help it, and he questioned Edson:

"Why is there such a powerful magician in Grey Wood City, who can summon such a wide range of flames, aren't you Shadow Wolf Clan known as intelligence experts, why is there no news of him!"

There was a hint of mockery in Edson's eyes, he closed his eyes, not wanting to be seen by Marcy, although he was glad to see Marcy deflated, but for the sake of his children and people, he had to be patient, Edson recalled Caleb's information, and said to Marcy:

"Mr. Marcy, we know who the one who released the flames is, his name is Caleb, and he uses very special magic, magic to manipulate bugs.

His strength is very low in our intelligence, only at the level of a magic apprentice, and this fire is supposed to have been caused by one of his bugs capable of releasing flames.

We've seen these bugs, and they disappear when they turn into flames, which means it's a consumable, and he can't have any more bugs.

Now we should take advantage of the victory, I will add three times the potion to make these demon wolves completely crazy, and Mr. Marcy will have your men summon an army of the undead, and tomorrow night we will launch a second attack and defeat them in one fell swoop. ”

Edson's proposal made Marcy a little excited, and he also felt that Greywood City had suffered a lot of losses in the previous Warcraft siege, and now he could go all out.

"Nice proposal, my skeleton army will be prepared for a while, the time will be set for tomorrow night, as long as I can successfully take this city, I will release your people, hahaha...."

Edson's fists hidden under the black robe were clenched tightly, he didn't dare to look at Marcy, because his eyes were full of murderous aura now, and he was afraid that he would punch him directly when he saw him.

The two men came to a hidden cave, and entered the cave through illusion magic, which was located in a hill next to the city of Greywood, and two men with warrior equipment were guarding the entrance of the cave, and when they saw Marcy enter, they hurriedly saluted:

"Lord Marcy."

Marcy ignored him and continued to walk inward, the further he went, the larger the space of the passage, until he came to a large hollow, which was located in the middle of the great hollow, and the whole hollow took on the shape of an inverted bowl.

There are 10 necromancers standing in a magic circle, all of them are Marcy's subordinates, and they are also the lowest level members of the Corpse Soul Cult.

After a strange whisper of their voices, skeletons were summoned from the magic array, and after these skeletons walked out of the magic array, they scattered into a pile of bones.

This is a dormant state of skeletons, in which they can retain maximum mana and also greatly reduce space.

In addition, hundreds of handcuffed and shackled slaves were cleaning up the bones that had fallen to the ground and moving them all to one place, and a dozen overseers were watching, occasionally wielding a long whip and whipping a tired slave.

Edson looked worriedly at the dozens of skinny figures among these slaves, all of them had gray hair and a pair of wolf ears erect, these were all the children in his clan, including his daughter, they had been captured, and the Shadow Wolf Clan was the only one left with him, and he had to keep these children no matter what.

Marcy stood at the entrance of the passage, looked at the busy people below and said:

"Listen to me, tomorrow night we will take Grey Wood City, wake up all the skeleton soldiers that we prepared before, be sure to prepare all the skeleton soldiers by tomorrow night, if anyone neglects the preparations, I will draw his soul and put it under the soul fire for a hundred years."

The men under the hollow heard Marcy's order and began to act, and a dozen overseers began to drive the slaves away with long whips, and they were all locked in a small hole carved out next to the hollow, and the piles of white bones were reassembled into human form under the manipulation of the necromancer.

With a creaking crash, the skeleton grabbed his rusty spear and broadsword and began to move outside.

In the City Lord's Mansion, Caleb picked up a bottle of magic potion and looked at the potion glowing with blue light.

"Gross-"

Caleb felt a wave of nausea, and he struggled to get to his feet, feeling a shake in his stomach.

"Damn, I've drunk too much, I don't want to touch any magic potions for at least a month, vomit-"

Open the window, the sky outside has been bright, he hasn't slept all night, he has been using the insect splitting technique all night, at least a few hundred bottles of magic potion have been drunk, and now Caleb has reached the point where he is about to vomit when he sees the magic potion.

"At least the stock of bugs has been replenished, and this suffering has not been in vain."

Caleb checked the number of swarms in the system space and smiled like an old farmer.

"This quantity is already more than the previous reserves, and the quality is also higher, and there are still the old acid phants left from before, and it is enough to defend the city again."

Opening the door, Caleb wanted to go to the city wall to see what was going on, but before he could go out, Caleb found that the door was blocked by two maids.

With a dignified face, a hot body, and the clothes on their bodies are also very expensive materials, they are not ordinary maids at first glance, they push a cart into the room, on which are placed all kinds of toiletries, the two maids walked to Caleb, bowed to Caleb and said:

"My lord, we're here to wash you."

After that, he began to untie Caleb's clothes.

Caleb saw that these two men were about to move as soon as they entered, and hurriedly shouted:

"Stop, stop, stop.... I'll do it myself, and you can put your things down. ”

Caleb took two steps back to stop the two of them and motioned for them to go out.

The two maids looked at each other, bowed to Caleb again, and exited the room.

As soon as they went out, the two maids saw Bill guarding the door, and Bill was a little surprised to see them, and asked:

"Why did he come out so quickly, you didn't make him angry."

A maid said:

"Master, my lord, he won't let us serve him, let us put down our things and go out, and we won't be able to disobey it."

Bill was a little distressed, he didn't know how to please Caleb.

Money, Caleb's terrifying ability, it is not a matter of minutes to want money.

Caleb is a noble God-giver, even if the king sees it, he has to give three points.

color, the results are already in front of you, these two are carefully selected beauties, but they were kicked out within a few seconds of entering.

Click-

The door was pushed open, Caleb had washed and tidied up, and as soon as he came out, he saw Bill and the two maids, and he knew that Bill was careful when his head turned, but he didn't care, whatever the hell he thought, he was going to leave when the incident was over.

When Bill saw Caleb walking out of the door, he subconsciously knelt down.

"Ahem..."

Caleb's cough alerted Bill, who hurriedly straightened up and said to the two maids:

"It's none of your business here, step aside."

The two maids did not hesitate, they saw Bill's performance, they had already vaguely guessed the truth, and they did not dare to slack off, and bent down to salute.

"Yes, master."

Turning around and leaving, when the two were far away, Caleb looked at the scenery outside the window, and asked casually:

"You arranged those two people?"

Bill hurriedly knelt down and said:

"I'm so sorry, my lord, I just want to make your adult happy."

"You don't have to talk to me, if it weren't for a coincidence, we wouldn't have a chance to cooperate, after this time the matter is over, I will leave, you can rest assured that you will be your city lord, do whatever you want."

"Yes...."

After saying that, Caleb didn't look at Bill who was kneeling on the ground, and turned around and went to the south city wall, he would not live in this city lord's mansion anymore, he preferred the small room of the Morning Radiance Hotel to the luxurious large room.

The southern wall was still in full swing, a large number of adventurers sat on the ground early in the morning and began to drink, some magicians were arranged to strengthen the wall, and Gray and his party were also here.

Caleb caused a commotion as soon as he arrived, after all, if it wasn't for Caleb's attack last night, most of the people here would have lost their lives, and many people, mostly adventurers, raised their glasses to Caleb and saluted him.

"Mr. Caleb, let's have a drink together!"

"Yes, yes, we're in for a treat!"

Waving his hand at the men, Caleb did not come up to him, but sat down next to Gray's gang, who seemed to have just woken up, with a pale face and messy hair.

Caleb looked at him like this, and asked amusedly:

"Nightmares?"

Gray was silent, he didn't know what to say, and after a long silence he spoke:

"Last night when I was fighting with the wolves, there was a man who saved me, and I wanted to thank him at the time, but the next moment he was cut off by the demon wolf's wind blade, if I had found out earlier if I could have saved him like him, I regret it, I keep repeating this scene in my dream....."

Caleb listened quietly, he felt that Gray had changed, he had become more mature than before, he didn't say anything comforting, he wasn't a woman, and he said a bunch of crooked things like "I understand you" and "It's not your fault".

A slap on Gray's back, which directly slapped him who was still grieving, Caleb threw a bottle of wine to him, stood up, and smiled at him and said:

"You've changed, you've become stronger, drink... Now it's time to drink, not to remember the dead, but to celebrate that you've survived. ”

Looking at Caleb's distant back, Gray pulled out the cork and poured it down.

The first time he drank in his life, Gray felt that the taste was very unpleasant, but he couldn't stop, and he poured a whole bottle with tears, and he suddenly felt as if he had let go of his burden, and it was very relaxed.

Caleb stepped onto the walls and went straight to Mawson, who was directing preparations for the defense of the city.

Seeing the civilians who were disposing of the corpses of the demon wolves outside the city walls, Caleb made a rough calculation, there were probably more than 500 corpses at the scene, and according to the wolves last night, the number of demon wolves was at least 2,000.

Caleb shouted at Mawson:

"Mawson!"

When Mawson heard someone calling him, he turned his head and saw that it was Caleb, and hurried over.

"Mr. Caleb, is there anything wrong?"

Caleb nodded and asked Mawson:

"The city wall has been repaired, how are the supplies prepared?"

"The walls have been repaired, and the other three walls have also been prepared, and the supplies are very sufficient, never before, as long as we have these materials, I think we can hold them for a long time."

Mawson was satisfied with the supplies, he had never seen so many potions and arrows.

Caleb nodded, and then continued:

"Did you send someone to investigate the situation of the demon wolf?"

"It's... There are too many demon wolves, it's too dangerous for people to check alone, I didn't let people investigate, I'll send someone to investigate now. ”

After Mawson finished speaking, he was about to turn around and make arrangements, but was stopped by Caleb:

"No need, let me do the investigation, I'm doing it."

Caleb has a batch of acid phagogens left over from before, and now there are stronger acid phagoes, this batch is just sent out to investigate, and by the way, look for a chance to see if there is a chance to kill a few demon wolves, and it will not be wasted.

Caleb stretched out his hand, and from his hand crawled a dense mass of worms, like a black cloud, suspended above Caleb.

It wasn't the first time Mawson had seen Caleb manipulate bugs, but he still felt a little creepy.

'Go! Look for the wolves. ’

With Caleb's order, the black clouds dissipated, and the acid eaters scattered and flew to the woods to begin to reconnoiter the situation of the demon wolf.

Sensing that everything was normal with the swarm, Caleb said to Mawson:

"That's it, I won't bother you with your work, just prepare hard.

Now I'm going to go out and I'll tell you if there's a situation. ”

"I see, Mr. Caleb."

Mawson continued to command the preparations for the defense of the city, and Caleb himself ran out into the wilderness.

He has to test new skills, and only by knowing his opponent and knowing himself can he survive a hundred battles, and if he can't even understand his own skills, it will be very dangerous when it comes to fighting.

Came to a no-man's land, this is located near a hill next to Greywood City, yes, it is the hill that Marcy entered before, of course, Caleb himself does not know that this is Marcy's lair, and Marcy does not know that Caleb is near here, and now he is busy summoning skeleton soldiers, and the two of them missed the opportunity to meet.

"It's here, there's no one around, and the field is wide."

Caleb chose a clearing, which was located right behind the cave.

"Hmm... This time there are a lot of skills, so let's try the Worm Shield first. ”
