Volume 1 The Road to Rise Chapter 031 Misunderstanding

The hunter's death, as Anna had expected.

If [Ripper] is so easy to kill, it will not make the police station return in vain for two months.

What's more, she just tried her hand at it, and didn't attack the [Ripper] at all.

[The Ripper] was only hurt by the protector function of her treasure.

She already knew this in her heart.

It's just that she didn't know how long the hunter had been here, and whether he had seen anything.

So, when the hunter was guarding against her, she was also guarding against the hunter.

When she saw [Ripper] sneak attack on the hunter, she deliberately slowed down a beat before reminding her.

In order to kill the hunter and clear his suspicions.

However, now that she is left with the [Ripper], who looks badly injured, what should I do next?

Just when she was in trouble, someone helped her out.

"Madame! Where are you? ”

Not far away, Nock's anxious shouts sounded like they were only a few dozen meters away.

It is estimated that it was on another street, blocked by the corner, so I didn't find Anna.

Seeing this, Anna hurriedly adjusted the breath on her body, and after timidly glancing at the nervous [Ripper], she ran in the direction of Nock in a panic.

While running, he cried for help in a panic: "Help! Father! I am here! Woo woo, dead man, it's terrible! ”

Nock, who was looking for Anna in the next street, heard Anna's cry and ran towards her.

Soon, turning the corner, he saw Anna, who had lost her face.

By this time, Anna had already run off her shoes, and her cloak was hanging behind her head.

A panicked face with pear blossoms with rain, after seeing Nock, panic turned into joy.

Like a bird returning home, he threw himself into Nock's arms.

"Woo woo, priest, monster, monster kill!"

Anna, who buried her face in Nock's arms, cried without raising her head, and did not forget to point to the street behind her with her finger, telling about the monster's killing.

Nock looked in the direction Anna was pointing.

I only saw a sturdy monster figure standing there under the street lamp dozens of meters away.

In the middle of the road, not far below its feet, two blurred black shadows and something liquid-like lay there.

Come to think of it, it must be a victim in the mouth of the husband.

"Ripper! You don't change your life! I won't let you go tonight! ”

Nock grabbed Anna and pulled her out of her arms.

"Madame, you wait here for a moment. I'm sure I'll be able to clean it up this time. I accidentally fell into the river just now, but this time there is no river here, and it is definitely not my opponent! ”

Nock put Anna down and rushed headlong at [Ripper].

But [The Ripper] had already recognized the person as Nock.

Injured, how could it fight with Nock.

Although Nock suffered a loss just now, he was not hurt.

Therefore, after [Ripper] realized that Nock had the intention of fighting, he immediately turned around and rushed into the small alley before.

When Nock arrived in the alley, there was only an empty alley, and there was no trace of the Ripper.

[Ripper], he has long since fled.

For Nock's return in vain, Anna was prepared.

Originally, she learned from Sherlock that Nock and [Ripper] could get away with his whole body, so she would visit Nock.

But tonight, although Nock can get out of the way, he is not the opponent of [Ripper] at all.

Think of it, too, a young orphan priest, where would that be the opponent of that one.

Others don't know the identity of [Ripper], but she knows it very well!

After all, that [Ripper] used to be her closest person!

But that's a good thing, it's a good thing that Nock didn't leave [Ripper] behind.

After all, she didn't want outsiders to know the true identity of [Ripper].

Now that she's tested that [Ripper] can't hurt her at all, she doesn't take [Ripper] to heart.

The most important thing now is to stabilize the young priest in front of him and ask him to help stop the restless nephew of the family from continuing to investigate the [Ripper].

Otherwise, if he continues to be entangled like this, the identity of the [Ripper] will be exposed sooner or later.

However, as long as Nock can pestering Sherlock for a few days, she will have time to solve the problem.

A seriously injured [Ripper], she has a way to deal with it.

Although Anna had an idea in her heart, she still looked scared.

Even, she cleverly blamed the dead hunter for the [Ripper]'s injury.

Nock listened to Anna's words and hurriedly went to check the identity of the dead hunter.

Well, sure enough, someone I know.

Although Nock was not familiar with this Kidd, he still talked a word or two from a distance with his face covered.

However, the content of the conversation is not very friendly.

But Nock still recognized Kidd, who had several connections.

"Ma'am, please wait a little longer, I'll find someone to take care of this. Get a carriage by the way. ”

Just when Anna thought that Nock was about to leave her again, she saw Nock crouching next to the corpse, reaching out and groping for a while.

Then, as if he had found what he was looking for, he stood up and pulled it against the sky.

"Whew!"

A fireball rises into the air with its tail and then explodes in the air, forming a pattern of goblin avatars in the air.

"This is a flare for the Monster Hunter Guild. It is used for help and positioning. ”

Seeing Anna looking at her with curiosity, Nock thoughtfully explained to her what she was holding.

"I've heard of flares, but they're not something that only exists in the military?"

Anna said confusedly.

Nock shook his head and laughed, "This was more than a hundred years ago. Thanks to the improvements made by the goblin craftsmen, flares have been able to diversify. However, according to the caravans that run the eastern route, it is rumored that the east is the origin of signal flares, and the signal flares there have become popular props for people's entertainment, which is not only diverse, but also beautiful. ”

Anna opened her mouth wordlessly, but finally said nothing.

She knew nothing about the East.

I only heard my husband Ford envy say that there is a huge ancient country in the far east, full of gold.

It's a pity that the road is far away, and it's still very dangerous.

A caravan of thousands of people has been on the road for several years, and when it comes back, it would be nice to have only a hundred people left.

But everyone who can come back, every one of them has made a fortune.

Either become a guest of honor in the kingdom or be made a nobleman.

Ford also wanted to organize a large caravan to pan for gold in the East, but unfortunately the capital was insufficient.

"Wheels, wheels, wheels."

The sound of rolling wheels interrupted Anna's recollection.

"Phew!"

A rudimentary horse-drawn carriage pulled up in front of the two Nocks, and a group of armed men jumped off the pallet.

"Kidd, you kid also have today, and you will actually send a flare for help!"

In the crowd of people who got out of the car, someone teased loudly.

They thought it was Kidd himself who pulled the flare.

After all, the person who is hunting here tonight is Kidd.

However, before they could stand their feet, Nock gave them a "head-on blow".

"Sorry to interrupt you. If you're talking about Kidd being the guy lying on the ground, I'll have to make you mourn and be submissive. Your brother Kidd has returned to the arms of the Lord, and I sounded the flare. ”

"What!"

The crowd that heard Nock's words was shocked.

When I looked closely, I saw two corpses lying in the middle of the road.

Immediately exclaimed: "Oh no, Kidd is really dead!" ”

There were seven or eight people in total, all of whom were monster hunters who had a good relationship with Kidd on weekdays.

Hearing that Kidd had an accident, the faces of the group all changed drastically, and Hula pulled out their weapons and surrounded Nock and Anna.

Nock glanced at them calmly, "Guys, what do you mean by that?" ”

"What do you mean?" A bald redbeard man who seemed to be the leader and was armed with a large axe stepped forward.

He pointed the blade of his axe at Nock and said, "Did you kill Kidd, be honest, or don't blame us for chopping you two into minced meat!" ”

Nock sneered, "Alright, don't pretend. If I am the murderer, I can still take the initiative to send a flare here and wait for you to trouble me? How Kidd died, you just have to go and take a look. If you want to frame me, you also have to weigh your own identity and see if the Hunter Guild behind you has the courage to support you in making trouble with me. ”

"By the way, I forgot to tell you, my name is Nock Lane, and I'm a priest."

"Shhh The hunters who heard Nock report to their home took a breath of cold air at the same time.

Father, I can't mess with you!

Don't look at them, they're all hunters of the Monster Hunter Guild.

But the Monster Hunter Guild isn't going to stand up for Monster Hunter.

The Monster Hunter Guild is just a quest platform organization, and any professional can become a member of it if they pay a fee.

You can be a noble priest, a mysterious mage, or a notorious thief and killer.

As long as you pay the money, you can join and become a monster hunter.

But who is the priest? People are members of the church! It's still a cornerstone.

And in England, who dares to call himself a priest except for the people of the Cult of Nature, who has become the state religion!

Although these people also have their own occupations, those occupations are not as protective and domineering as those sects.

Unless you're already a major figure in your profession, no profession wants to be at odds with a sect.

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, Father, that we were rude! Please accept our sincerest apologies! ”

Seven or eight shouted and threw down their weapons, and knelt down in front of Nock, begging for Nock's forgiveness.

No way, the Cult of Nature is too domineering.

There is a faint tendency to be self-respecting in the Lionheart Kingdom, and even the mysterious magic guild has to avoid it.

It's just that if they knew that the Nock in front of them was not a priest of the Cult of Natural God, but a priest who they mistakenly thought was a priest of the Holy Church that had been completely expelled, I wonder if they would still be genuinely afraid?

So, in this sincere negotiation, Nock borrowed the carriage from the hunters in their "Gratitude Zero".

As for the carriage of the Sherlock Holmes family on the bridge, Nock also handed over to this group of guys to help deal with it by the way.

Although the two horses were frightened and injured, after recovering from their injuries, they may still be usable, but the carriage is so badly damaged that it is estimated that it will not be usable.

Helping Anna into the driver's seat of the carriage, Nock sat on it.

Telling Anna to hold herself, Nock drove away slowly.

After Nock left, the hunters looked terrified.

finally sent away this "plague god".

They then took their anger out on Kidd, who had died.

Quickly dividing up Kidd's relics, they packed Kidd's body in a broken bag.

Then he went to the bridge that Nock said and rescued the two injured horses.

As for the carriages, they did not move, there were things marked by the nobility, they did not know what to do with them.

If Nock hadn't said that someone would go to the union tomorrow to claim the two horses, they wouldn't have dared to help take them away.

All in all, tonight was an unlucky day for them.

But fortunately, there is still an inheritance waiting for them to divide up.

Kidd's hapless bastard was a bachelor, and when he died, his stuff was divided between the people who helped him collect his body.

Kidd seems to have a dilapidated house that might sell for a few gold coins.

Greed made this group of hunters forget about unhappiness and work a little harder.

[The power went out again!] It's stopped three times a week, damn it! Coding and writing, the train of thought was just right, and suddenly it was dark, the lights went out, and the computer stopped running. I waited for two hours before the call came, and I was depressed to death. 】
