Chapter 27: The Grave Crisis (I)

Previous Chapter

A few birds flew freely in the warm sunlight, and one of them landed on the balcony railing, its beak cleaning its feathers, its bright eyes seeing the mess in the bedroom.

At this moment, the white sheets on the ground suddenly moved, and a hand reached out from it, and then a man who was steaming all over his body crawled out with difficulty.

Liam was wrapped in sheets, leaning on the double bed, and the madness of last night didn't even give him the strength to lift his arms.

Unexpectedly, for the first time after the crossing, he would be handed over in such a daze, and his heart was mixed.

"Little Harpy, this bastard, said that if there is an emergency, wake me up first, damn it." Liam scolded, raising his hand to wipe his forehead, this simple action pulled half of his body sore and painful.

casually released the low-level magic of the "wooden man", which reduced the sensitivity of the muscles and nerves, and the soreness was improved.

Liam searched for clothes scattered everywhere, such as panties hanging from crystal lamps, socks hidden under the bed, half sleeves tucked into the seams of the closet.

I finally put together the clothes I wore last night, but I found that they were all in tatters, so I had to throw them all away and change them into new clothes from the closet.

Dressed neatly, standing in front of a full-length mirror, and brushing his chicken-coop-like hair.

Looking around, Liam shook his head with a wry smile, "That's crazy."

Begin to clean up, toss the torn sheets in half, pile the broken utensils into the corner, and push the double bed back into its original position.

Sitting on the bed, I pulled open the bedside table drawer and took out a silver cigarette case and a gold-plated pocket watch that had not been used for a long time.

I looked at the time, 10:30 a.m.

Liam leaves the bedroom, and as soon as he comes out, he sees Emily busy in a maid suit.

"Emily." Liam walked over.

"Mr. Liam." Emily was taken aback, quickly turned around, and said respectfully.

"No need to be polite, you can find a few maids to clean up the bedroom later." Liam said in a soft tone, seeing that the other party's sideburns and hair were a little messy, and reached out to tidy it up for the other party.

This affectionate gesture made Emily stand in place, her hands pinching the corners of her clothes, her face flushed.

"Pay more attention to rest, the gray hair is out, and if you can't finish the work under your hands, you will tell others to do it, and you don't have to practice everything." Liam cared, gently smoothing the wrinkles of the other party's clothes, and playfully tapping the other party's forehead.

"I order you to go home early at noon today, accompany the old mayor to water the flowers, yo-yo the birds, and spend a leisurely and pleasant weekend."

With that, Liam waved away.

Looking at the other party's back, Emily raised her hand and touched the forehead that was tapped by the other party's fingers, with a happy smile on her face, and muttered, "With you, it's a pleasant weekend, not grandpa." ”

Whose girl doesn't have spring, but I don't know who likes it.

Emily pushed open the bedroom door, thinking carefully about entering the little viscount's bedroom, she could enter it openly today, and it was not impossible to be carried in by the little viscount himself in the future.

This kind of lustful thoughts, after seeing the scene in the house, completely disappeared.

Emily's keen nose instantly smelled the scent of other women, and her heart suddenly set off a storm, she couldn't believe that someone was actually under her nose to take the lead.

"Damn stealing cat, don't let me catch you, or you'll have good fruit to eat." Emily pulled up the sheets, put them on her nose and sucked hard, remembering the smell of the other party, and swore viciously.

When Liam passed by the study on the second floor, he stopped and listened for a while to see if there was any movement inside.

As usual, it was very quiet in the study.

Got into Andrew's carriage and left the mansion.

It was only then that Liam had the heart to examine himself.

The crazy body of the night was exhausting, but it was nothing more, the spirit was high, the magic was full, and it even vaguely reached the intermediate level of a level 3 magic apprentice.

Liam was taken aback, closed his eyes and re-examined it, his heart was very complicated. "No need to meditate, just one night of pleasure can increase my magic several times, this..."

"The darling of darkness, the creature that best fits the dark moon, and the best tonic for dark mages - the Night Elves." Liam thought of the other party's purple eyes, pointed ears, the strange magic lines on Bai Zhi's skin, and the voice and smell with the ability to seductive.

"Well, this is a big tonic, it works well." Little Harpy emerged from the darkness and sat across from him, crossed his legs.

"Why didn't you remind me last night?" When Liam saw the other party's snort, he suddenly became angry, and raised his hand to fight.

"She can improve your strength in a short period of time, and there are no side effects, why should I stop it." Little Harpy spread his hands, "Besides, it's not a sudden danger, aren't you happy to be in it." ”

"I..." Liam immediately took a break, he was indeed very comfortable last night, but as a good young man in the new era, he can't accept this kind of in-depth communication behavior without emotional foundation under any circumstances....

"The twisted melon is not sweet, I must prevent this kind of thing from happening again." Liam made up his mind.

"Not sweet, but thirst-quenching." Little Harpy smiled, and the pair of ghost fires stared at each other, "Although the Night Elves are the great tonic of the dark magician, not every time the effect is so outstanding, the next time the end of the battle will be very poor, and it may not even have any effect, so don't put your mind on these crooked ways, meditation is the right way." ”

Liam glared at the other party, and said in his heart that you talk a lot of nonsense, if you weren't too weak last night, you wouldn't have been taken advantage of by the other party and seized the high ground.

I don't want to talk nonsense with the other person on this topic, "Where did you go this morning?" ”

"Your believers are in danger." Little Harpy lifted his right hand, which was missing his ring finger.

"Nocas?" Liam asked, looking calm.

Little Harpy nodded, "Someone is openly rebelling and wants to transform your poor little organization, and the siege is just this morning. ”

"All those involved in the rebellion have been arrested, or have they all been killed."

"Fifteen people were killed, three were arrested, and the details are not clear." Little Harpy spread his hands, and he hardly participated in this kind of cannibalism of human beings unless Liam ordered it.

Liam nodded, leaned into the carriage, lifted the curtains, and looked out the window, "Why did Randall appear at the wellhead last night?" ”

"He's always been the old thing's man, in charge of guarding the wellhead, and more than half of your so-called "Dragon's Tooth Knights" are old things' minions. ”

"Including.... He? Liam tilted his head, alluding to Andrew, who was driving.

Little Harpy shook his head, "This stupid big guy isn't it. ”。

Liam was relieved, if Andrew was too, then he would have to kill the other party immediately, after all, this trip was to Joshua's family cemetery, and in Sean's letter, the secret was hidden in the grave.

The carriage drove through the deserted mountain forest, and after crossing a small stone bridge, it came to the cemetery, which was overgrown with weeds and rocks.

"You go to the river to feed the horses first, and then come and pick me up before dark." Liam said that the time was as backward as possible, for fear that the other party would arrive early and see something that should not be seen.

Andrew nodded with a big grin and drove towards the river.

In the cemetery, which has been left untended all year round, the weeds grow to the ankles, and the wind blows like ripples on the water.

Little Harpy stood on Liam's shoulder and looked around.

"Did you find anything?"

Little Harpy shook his head, "I don't see any difference. ”

Liam's eyes narrowed, and even the former king of angels couldn't see the clues, this cemetery really harbored secrets?

Take out the silver cigarette case, open it, and eliminate the spiritual space, holding the small shovel between your fingers.

Sean said that this "Mandy's Styx Shovel" cannot be fully released and must be used with caution every time it is used. Liam reminded himself in his mind that the magic was infused in small amounts.

The Styx Shovel immediately turned to normal size, with a pitch-black body carved into the surface with obscure runes on the surface, a black diamond-shaped gem at the end of the grip, a serrated end of the shovel, and three eyes and an eerie dotted line carved on the back.

"Sean said the Styx shovel would take me to Joshua's secrets." Liam didn't know what to do with the artifact, but since it was a shovel, it was nothing more than that.

"Mandy's Styx Shovel" stuck in the ground, and Liam expertly pressed it into the soil with his foot, and then injected a little magic power, "Luoyang Shovel, also a shovel." ”

Strange to say, there was still wind around, but when the River Styx shoveled into the dirt, it instantly fell silent.

Not only that, but even the insects that were originally stumbling have no movement, and the surrounding silence is terrifying.

Liam felt a vibration under his feet, and when he looked down, a crack appeared, like an earthworm pointing from under a shovel to a grave not far away.

"Found it so soon?" Liam was pleasantly surprised, lifted the shovel out of the dirt, poured magic into it, and with a thought, turned it back to the size of a toothpick, put it back in the cigarette case, and resealed it with his spirit.

Running over, pulling away the weeds along the cracks, behind the grave, lifted the wood that covered it, and a dark wind blew out of it.

The tomb had been stolen by rats, and a large rat path accessible to adults meandered down to the point where it led.
