"Hoo ....................."

After dinner, Duanmu Huai also leaned back on the chair and sighed.

"Knight, haven't you found the demon dog yet?"

At this time, Lorena also walked over and asked curiously.

"It escaped, then again, this kind of game of waiting for the dog is really not for me, I hate hide and seek the most."

Duanmu Huai waved his hand boredly, looking speechless.

"It's not going to attack the rest of the town."

"That's hard to say......... Then again, even why it is eyeing the Baskervilles is actually a mystery. ”

Fairy tales are fairy tales after all, and in the final analysis, only the ancestor knew what it was in the first place. Although some players will summon souls through magic such as necromancy to inquire about the situation, it is a pity that Duanmu Huai does not have the ability and skills in this regard——— he is the god of destruction after all.

If you want to crush souls to pieces, that's what he's good at.

"How's the Baroness doing?"

"She's barely getting better lately, but she's not doing well......... Well, how can I say it........."

Saying this, Lorena pondered for a moment.

"As far as I'm concerned, the Baroness may have children."

"Oh? Really, did you ask her to see a doctor? ”

"She seems to have a good idea, and she was going to wait until after Christmas to ask the doctor to come and see her, but it seems to me that it should be about the same, after all, as priests, we are also responsible for some of these things, and her situation is very similar to the ladies I see in the church."

"Then you have to keep an eye on her, I don't think that dog is just staring at this before leaving."

At least for now, the Baskervilles have been attacked by the Demon Dogs, although the Baroness Baskervilles are married to the Baskervilles and are not strictly related to the Baskervilles, but if she has a Baskerville child, it is a different matter.

"Okay, I see, Knight."

Lorena nodded earnestly.

"Then I'll go out for a spin again."

After dinner, Duanmu Huai felt that he was also a little bored, so he stood up and stretched.

"Is this time to go out?"

"Like you said, maybe that guy will attack the townspeople, you just take care of the ladies here, and I'll go around town."

Duanmu Huai is not talking nonsense, in fact, he finally followed the trail of that monster and disappeared after finding the bottom of the mountain. In other words, it is very likely that the monster has infiltrated the town, of course, it is normal or fine, but it can be injured by Duanmu Huai before, and the injured animals are very dangerous. Although today is Christmas, most people are at home at this time, but for the sake of safety, Duanmu Huai still plans to go and see it.

Duanmu Huai walked out of the restaurant and came to the entrance, and just as he was about to go out, he saw Mary coming over.

"Huh? Mr. Duanmu, where are you going so late?? ”

"I'm going to take a walk around town and make a round."

"Can I go with me too?"

Hearing Duanmu Huai's answer, Mary's eyes suddenly lit up, and she hurriedly asked.

"You? Don't you chat with your friends? ”

"Aha......... This ..............."

Hearing this, Mary couldn't help but show a wry smile. That's why she wants to go out with Duanmu Huai, it's really that Ashelika and Xia Li have been forcing themselves to ask about their relationship with Mr. Duanmu, obviously Mary feels that there is nothing between herself and Duanmu Huai, but they seem to think that there must be some secret between the two——— saying that there must be a secret, but I can't tell you.

You can't talk to Xia Li about Antarctica, what other ancients, Shogues, monsters or something.........

As a result, the more Mary concealed it, the more it made Xia Li and Ashelika feel that she had a ghost in her heart, which made Mary almost cry without tears, and Ashelika was just fine, Xia Li, you are the culprit of all this, okay......... Of course, Mary must not say this to Xia Li.

So at this time, she heard that Duanmu Huai was going out, and she hurriedly wanted to find an excuse to leave.

Otherwise, if you are forced to ask by the two of you, you don't know what will happen.

"Okay, keep warm so you don't get sick."

Duanmu Huai did not object, on the one hand, he was idle, and on the other hand, he was idle, and on the other hand, he was ......... I have to say that he also wants to see if the golden pupil is attractive to that magic dog.

After all, this can be regarded as the Western version of Tang monk meat, so why don't you have that magic dog?

If that's the case, then it's much easier to encounter something similar in the future, just let Tang Seng out, and then attract the monster to take the bait.

It's like Journey to the West, the monster came to catch Tang Seng to eat meat, and then was beaten to death by Sun Wukong with a stick, how convenient.

Well, then in this case, Mary is Tang Seng, she is Sun Wukong, and Lorena is a sand monk?

So who is Zhu Bajie?

………………… It doesn't matter if you don't, after all, it's not really to learn from the scriptures.

After changing his clothes, Duanmuhuai and Mary left the Baskerville estate and walked down the street towards the town.

It's late at night, and the whole town is already asleep, but because it's Christmas, the whole street is lit up with lights. It's not as dark as usual, on the contrary, the whole town seems to be shining, but it looks quite fairytale-like.

It would be even more fun to have another Santa Claus.

"How's it going? Is everything still going well? ”

Duanmuhuai walked on the street, and asked casually, Duanmuhuai was actually not surprised by Mary's appearance, the reason is ——— Well, don't say it.

"Fortunately, everyone is back to their old lives, and I feel very happy, although there was some uneasiness during that time, but ......... Now it looks like it's all worth it. ”

Raising her head and looking at the snowflakes falling from the sky, Mary couldn't help but sigh. It reminded her of the days when she went to Antarctica, and now that she was back here, she remembered everything that had happened before, and Mary would even think she was dreaming......... Or maybe maybe I think about it now, it still feels very unreal.

But then again...............

"I'm going to start thinking about graduation next year.........

"What did you think about what I said earlier?"

"Uh......... Are you inviting me to work in the Courtroom? ”

"That's right."

Duanmu Huai nodded and looked at Mary, the golden pupils were really good......... To be honest, Duanmu Huai also wants it, but unfortunately there is no way.

And Duanmu Huai also listened to Mary talk about the situation at the time, you must know that Mary is just an ordinary lady, but she can actually rely on the golden pupil to see through the opponent's attack trajectory, and even instinctively dodge and fight——— what kind of plug-in bug is this?

To be honest, compared with Mary's golden pupils, Duanmu Huai felt that his system was not fragrant.

After all, the system still needs to be upgraded, and Mary's golden pupil is really all-powerful!

The only flaw is that Mary herself is still weaker, but as long as she exercises diligently, learns some basic knowledge of combat, and cooperates with the strength of the golden pupil, it is estimated that it will not be a problem to reach the level of night guard.

Tut-tut, that's what really opens.

In the game, Duanmu Huai didn't hear about the existence of Mary, an NPC, and I don't know if it was because it didn't appear, or if the player didn't find out. However, Duanmu Huai feels that the latter is unlikely, even if he doesn't mention the golden pupils, a beautiful girl like Mary is absolutely impossible to let go of as an old embryo player.

After all, the average player recruits NPCs either by looking at strength, appearance, or rarity.

Mary, who has golden pupils, can be said to have a rare strength and good looks, which has to be in the game, she has long become a figure in the forum NPC ladder list——— at least a T1 level.

I wonder if I can shoot a laser from the golden pupil?

For example, what is the real long-lasting beam or something?

Belch......... Probably not.

"The work of the Trial Chamber......... Will it be dangerous? ”

"Strictly speaking, it's very dangerous."

Duanmu Huai didn't hide it, after all, this is the truth, and with the characteristics of Mary's golden pupils, if she doesn't go to the court, the danger is much greater than now.

"Although I will try to protect you as much as possible, you need to exercise, and you also need to train how to fight, deal with the enemy, and the work of the Inquisition can be brutal at times, at least what you are facing now is basically pediatric compared to the work of the Inquisition."

Duanmu Huai still has to make things clear to Mary, although the golden pupil is really precious, but Mary is indeed an ordinary girl who can't be ordinary anymore, so in this regard, Duanmu Huai even has a headache.

After all, this world is more peaceful than other worlds. In a place like a novice village, even young ordinary girls are either used to fighting, or they know that there are monsters in this world that will threaten them, so they are actually very receptive in this regard.

For example, the previous students of Manalia Academy, they are about the same age as Mary, and they are all well-educated noble ladies, but when facing enemies and demons, they are also not soft, they will kill when they should, and they will kill a large group at every turn. This is also because they were born in that kind of world, and naturally they have long been accustomed to the situation that monsters will threaten their lives.

But Mary is different, she is actually more like a person in the real world, even if she encounters any danger, she will not think about killing the other party in the first place. If you put it in a country like Lisas or Seth, even if it is against monsters, I am afraid that Mary will have a hard time choosing to fight each other.

So in this regard, Duanmu Huai has a bit of a headache, and I don't know if she can change it.

Although Mary was very kind, in the Inquisition, kindness was not often considered a good quality.

“………………………”

Sure enough, hearing Duanmu Huai's answer, Mary fell silent.

"Don't want to do dangerous work?"

"Nobody wants to do dangerous work, and although I want to try it too, I don't want Charlie and Aselika to worry about me........."

Mary also sighed, which was also her hesitation, although going to work in the Inquisition seemed to be a good choice, but if it was too dangerous, it would worry her friends, which made Mary a little hesitant.

"It's really important to think carefully, after all, if you actually go to work in the courtroom, the risk factor is higher than in the movie."

"Huh? Is that an exaggeration? ”

"Of course."

After all, in the movie, dying is blowing up a building, but the extermination orders issued by the Inquisition Court are calculated according to the planet.

"Hey....................."

Mary sighed again, she was indeed a little hesitant, the work of the Inquisition sounded dangerous, but she felt compelled to repay Duanmu Huai. After all, Duanmu Huai has also helped him so much, but if the work is too dangerous, will it backfire? After all, what can I do in the courtroom?

Thinking of this, Mary also looked at Duanmu Huai and raised her inner questions.

"Of course it's the golden pupil, this eye of yours has a very huge effect on the Inquisition, but you don't realize it yourself."

"Frankly, I don't really feel how special my eyes are........."

Hearing Duanmu Huai's answer, Mary stretched out her hand and touched her right eye with a somewhat complicated expression, although Duanmu Huai said it more than once, and those monsters seemed to have been sniping at her right eye, but Mary really didn't think that there was anything particularly powerful about her right eye. If anything, it will be better seen in some places.........

"The road is simple............... That's the best. ”

Looking at Mary's reaction, Duanmu Huai also sighed silently, the real BUG equipment is talking about such a thing as the golden pupil, I don't seem to think it's very powerful at all, but for others, just being able to easily see through the illusion that others can't see through is enough to make people feel powerful. Especially the monsters that are best at transformation and illusion such as the Pink Fear Demon, even Duanmu Huai can only rely on his own fear aura or the experience of the Inquisitor to distinguish it, but Mary can immediately see through the other party's true body with just a glance——— the gap between the two is like the difference between the weapons used in World War I and modern warfare.

Like in the past, soldiers were hidden in the bushes and were difficult to find, and could only be detected by experienced generals, but in modern warfare, an infrared drone will directly lock all of them for you, and you don't need any skills, this is the generation difference.

Mary's golden pupils are like the latter, and if you use them well, they are pure crushing.

What's even worse is that there is almost no consumption.

"If you want, you can try it out, and besides that, it's a good bait to use."

“……… Ay? Bait? ”

"That's right, just like now."

As he spoke, Duanmu Huai stopped, and then Mary, who was following him, also stopped, turned her head to look around, and was surprised to find that they had come to the square in the center of the town. But I don't know why, at this moment, it seems that a thick fog has gradually emerged around the surroundings, and under the illumination of the lights, I can only see a fog around me, and I can't even see the houses not far away.

And that's not all...............

"Woo woo ..............."

"What is this sound? Mr. Duanmu, is it a wild dog? ”

"Who knows? At least now, it seems that Tang monk meat is really quite tempting. ”

Although there is no golden pupil, in fact, Duanmu Huai has long sensed that something is secretly following them, and it is obvious that the other party is not coming for him. After all, the few times before in the mountains and forests, it ran when it touched itself, so the only thing that can be used to explain is that the golden pupil is too tempting, and now it seems that this monster obviously can't resist the temptation of Tang Seng's meat, and plans to fight.

Is this thing really that tempting?

In Journey to the West, the monsters want to eat Tang monk meat because they can live forever after eating it, so what can you get by eating the golden pupil?

Forget it, we'll talk about it then.

"Be careful, get behind me."

Duanmu Huai clenched his fists and said to Mary——— The previous cane has been used up in Antarctica, and it has not been replaced with a new one for the time being, but for Duanmu Huai, it is not a big problem to deal with a few wild dogs with bare hands.

"Roaring ———————!!!"

Finally, the other party seemed to be unable to bear it anymore, and with a low roar, the next moment I saw a black shadow suddenly pounce out of the fog and rush towards Mary.

"Wow!"

Mary seemed to be startled by the sudden attack, but even so, her body seemed to instinctively turn backwards and dodge the black shadow's attack.

Tsk tsk, the golden pupil is really powerful.

"Roaring —————!!"

The shadow that missed the blow reached out again and grabbed at Mary. At the same time, I saw that Duanmu Huai also turned around suddenly, clenched his fists, and slammed directly into the black shadow in front of him!

"Bang !!"

Duanmu Huai's iron fist directly hit the black shadow's body, only to see that the vague-looking shadow exploded instantly under the bombardment of Duanmu Huai's iron fist, completely shattered like a balloon that had been burst. But it was evident that this was not the end, and soon a series of barking dogs sounded again, and when I turned my head, I could see that there were dark shadows like hounds everywhere around me.

"Woohoo!!"

"Woo ———!!!"

The barking of dogs came and went, and it seemed that hundreds of hounds completely surrounded the two of them in the fog. Even Mary was a little pale when she saw this scene.

"Duan, Mr. Duanmu!"

"Don't worry, this is just a small thing, do you see anything strange?"

"This ........................"

Hearing Duanmu Huai's inquiry, Mary looked around, and then looked at a path not far away.

"There's a strange shadow over there..............."

"Let's go!"
