Rattle......

Suddenly, a crisp crow interrupted their gaze, and Lynn regretfully withdrew her gaze and looked in the direction from which the sound came from—a palm-sized gray crow towering over the counter, staring intently at her.

The owner of the tavern was an authentic Gwitt merchant, with a shrewd, philistine air, and after hearing the sound of crows, he couldn't help but pause in the action of wiping the wine glass, grinning and revealing a mouth full of yellow teeth, and greeted enthusiastically.

"What a rare face, welcome to the [Drunk] Tavern...... Is there anything you need? My guest? ”

"A glass of Guro wine, four years old, if I'm not mistaken, it should be seventeen copper coins of Secas." Lynn walked straight to the front of the stage and arranged the copper coins in her hand on the table in equal parts of five, five and seven.

The tavern owner looked at Lynn scrutinically, his gaze resting on the sword hanging from his waist for a moment, the expression on his face unchanged. "That was last year's standard, and now it'...... Gotta sell for twenty-one coppers! ”

Lynn was stunned for a moment, and before she could answer, the flamboyant-looking female drinker on the side pursed her lips and said with a smile. "Old York, aren't you fooling the newcomer? I didn't know that the price of your Guro wine here had suddenly gone up. ”

As she spoke, the female drinker looked at Lynn with interest, although a seventeen copper cup of Guluo wine was not a luxurious thing, there were few people in the [Drunkard] tavern who would be so generous.

In particular, the person is young and handsome, and his muscles are also very solid, so he shouldn't be the type that doesn't look good......

Old York didn't care about the woman's demolition, and grinned. "This year, two cargo ships in the harbor have capsized, and the raw materials of Guluo wine are scarce, so it is always more expensive......"

Lynn frowned and spoke again. "But I only have seventeen copper Secas!"

When the young drinkwoman heard this, her interest in Lynn suddenly became less than half, and she seemed to be just a poor ghost who squandered her savings for a good drink.

"Then I suggest you change your taste...... old York shrugged, "of course, if you're interested in making some extra money, I can help you, Cripple Lauder has been lacking a guy who can help him with his personal work, and he has always been generous and generous!" ”

Cripple Lauder? Lynn raised an eyebrow, he had heard the name more than once during the time he had been in the town of your, scouting for information.

The rumors of the other party are not very good......

"Good, I'm missing a suitable job." Lynn's thoughts turned, but she nodded in agreement.

Old York swept the copper coins on the table into his pocket, beckoned the tavern attendant to take over his work, and then looked at Lynn and spoke again.

"Come with me, put the Guro wine you want in the cellar, take it first and I'll take you to him......"

Seeing Lynn leave with Old York defenselessly, the lively drinkers couldn't help but smile gloatingly.

Everyone who lives in the town of your knows that Laude the Cripple is notoriously black-hearted despite his generosity, and many of the people who are rumored to have run boats under his hands have disappeared without a trace, sometimes not even a single body can be found......

There is a life to take money, but there is no life to spend......

……

While the drinkers were gloating, Old York led Lynn through the back kitchen, into a storage room full of wheat flour and barrels, and then stopped in front of a large, dirty barrel.

Click......

Old York pressed down the lid of the barrel on the side, and with the sound of wine surging down, the barrel slowly rotated half a circle, and the bottom plank popped out, revealing a half-man-high tunnel.

"Follow this path, and the person you want to meet is inside!" Old York lowered his voice and shoved the lit candlestick into Lynn's arms, warning impatiently. "Be careful yourself, don't get me in trouble!"

Lynn thanked him and picked up the oil lamp and stepped straight into the tunnel, the huge barrel behind him spun back into place, followed by the sound of the wine being refilled.

The faint light from the outside world disappeared, and the dark passage was pitch black, and I don't know where it extended, only the faint candlestick in my hand could light the way ahead, and the smell of inferior wine could be smelled in the air.

Lynn walked along the dimly lit passageway, already vigilant in her heart, constantly recalling the information of several fellow apprentices in her mind.

Because his mentor Coru has been running around all these years, he does not have a fixed place to live, let alone keep every apprentice by his side.

After all, the sudden appearance of too many fresh faces in a city is really eye-catching, which is not conducive to hiding identity.

Therefore, the original body's understanding of these people is very limited, and most of them have only met a few times and know the extent of their names and appearances.

The only one who is more familiar is Jonny, who sent him the letter before.

Of course, this familiarity is one-sided.

To be precise, the original Karl has subtle feelings for Jonny that are unique to young people.

In words that can be understood, it is unrequited love that is full of lust.

As Coru's most favored disciple, Jonny has a high talent for magic, and he is only one step away from becoming an official wizard, and he is also the leader of their group of apprentices after Coru's death.

It's a pity that this one-sided delicate relationship obviously can't provide him with any help.

As Lynn was distracted, the narrow passage in front of him gradually became wider, and through the faint candlelight, Lynn realized that this passage actually led to a dense forest outside the town of your.

It was late at night, but the sky was not as dark as expected, the silver moonlight sprinkled down through the gaps in the jungle branches and leaves, and the solid yellow earth surface seemed to be covered with a transparent veil, and Lynn faintly felt that the magic in her body had become more and more active.

Is this the day of the moon?

Through the dense trees, Lynn could faintly see the bright stars in the sky and the huge bright moon, a strange astronomical spectacle that only lasted about three to five days a year, according to the memory of his predecessor Carl.

However, there is no record of the fact that moonlight can affect magic.

That's right, it's only been half a year since the predecessor became a wizard......

As Lynn was thinking, a rapid sound of breaking the air suddenly sounded, and more than a dozen condensed [magic missiles] flew out from the surrounding closed woods, blocking his escape route from front to back.

Pitfall?

This thought immediately popped into Lynn's mind, and the next moment he had already reacted, and with a flip of his empty left hand, a cloud of gray powder was thrown out and fell into the palm of his hand, which was the little remaining spell casting material before-[Ember of Red Fire]!

Lynn threw it hard, and the dots of powder instantly ignited under the effect of magic, forming a scorching wall of fire in front of him.

However, the hastily used new type of magic, the [Secondary Fire Wall Technique], was naturally no match for several wizard apprentices joining forces, and the [Magic Missile] penetrated the sea of fire almost instantly.

Fortunately, Lynn's purpose had been achieved, and the heat wave and heat set off by the wall of fire caused these magical creations to lose their alignment, and they struck the trunks and yellow earth behind them scatteredly.

Seeing the four figures covered under the black robe forming a semi-circle towards him, Lynn silently pulled out the long sword at his waist, and at the same time untied the storage bag containing white phosphorus, ready for battle.

Due to the rush of time, he has a limited stock of white phosphorus, but now is clearly not the time to keep his hands......

It's just that before Lynn could make a move, a cold voice came out first.

"Carl, why did you betray us?"
