Andu was struggling with the cards in his hand, and there was a slight sound of unlocking from the dilapidated door of his house.

"Elizabeth?"

Andu asked softly.

"Andoo, you know, MacDonald has an evil thing!"

Elizabeth had just entered the door with a trot and rushed into Andu's room.

"Evil thing?" Andu asked curiously, frowning.

"Yes, on my way back, the MacDonald district has already begun to prepare for a blockade, a lot of church workers, and I also saw the real sacrifice! I heard that it is from the provincial city of Maras, but Maras is not the main city of the Western Province, why did he come to Halma?"

Elizabeth said with a thoughtful expression, after all, Halma's location is southeast, and it stands to reason that it is unlikely that the sacrifices of the western provinces would cross the distance of half an empire to come to such a remote place to preach.

"Maras?" Andu was stunned, and then rejoiced, Halmar himself didn't know where it was, only knew that it was in the southeast, but Maras was different, as one of the seven major provincial cities of the Aaronic Empire, he used to run there a lot.

Elizabeth was very interested in Andu, and immediately became interested, recalling what happened on the way back, and after thinking for a while, she said: "It was told to me by a young priest, it seems that it was called Roy Sacrifice, and he happened to pass by Halma and stayed here for a while to preach, because of the old locust tree in the MacDonald area, everyone seems to be very anxious now, saying that the locust tree has become an evil thing, you don't know, now the locust tree looks terrible." ”

Speaking of which, Elizabeth couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "When I was a child, you often took me to play under the locust tree, but I didn't expect it to suddenly become an evil thing, I really didn't expect it." ”

Andu's face was quite solemn, according to the memories he received, Halma had not had an evil invasion for more than ten years, and this kind of thing happened not long after he came, which made Andu feel a little stunned, could it be that he was born with a black recruitment system?

Andu looked down and thought, and accidentally saw his left hand, and a thought suddenly occurred in his heart.

A vision did occur when the Ring of Origin appeared before, could it be related to the Ring of Origin?

Andu smiled and suddenly said to Elizabeth, "You said that there are many priests, are they all because of that locust tree?"

Elizabeth nodded and said: "Yes, it seems that there is still a rune array, but it should not be very optimistic depending on the situation, saying that the decision can only be made when the people from the summoners association come, obviously the rune array has been arranged, but they still don't seem to be at ease, or I later said that the tree is afraid of fire, they reacted to the method of using fire, and it is estimated that it may really be necessary to use fire to destroy the evil thing at that time." ”

Andu's heart became more and more strange when he listened, in terms of the level that can invade the city, the worst is also a second-order demon, and the ordinary fire of this level of demon basically can't do much harm, even if it is fused with the locust tree, with the demon's flame antibody, it can't be solved at all without a professional second-ring fire mage, but judging from the situation of the Aaron Empire's special priests and summoners, there should not be a second-order fire mage in the entire Halma.

As for the possibility that the evil thing is the devil, it is not very likely, the devil will not appear in the daytime, let alone possess such an immovable unit on the locust tree, which is not at all in line with the devil's consistent style.

"You said the Summoners Guild also sent someone?" Andu asked after a moment's thought.

"yes, it should have arrived, I just said it was going to be when I came back, it should have been there for so long. ”

Elizabeth said patiently, Elizabeth felt happy in her heart for Andu, who was getting better and better, and she was also very curious about what had just happened, but she didn't find that Andu's expression was different from usual, and she was as frightened as herself.

"Well, how is today's harvest, has the furniture matter been negotiated?"

"I have already said that the money has been handed over to me in advance, and I said that I will move out tomorrow, but then there will be fewer things at home, and there will be nothing left that can be sold at any price. ”

Elizabeth muttered, a little helpless.

Andu touched Elizabeth's head and said with a smile: "There will be it in the future, and you must not secretly grab the medicine with the money you receive, those black-hearted drug dealers are the most inhumane, you must not send them money, do you know?"

Elizabeth's face flushed, and she said with her chest that had not yet developed much: "Then I, then I don't see that you can only lie down every day and be anxious, besides, we can't afford to hire a formal priest, you will have a graduation exam in another month, what if you are delayed." ”

Andula pulled the quilt, which was extremely heavy due to the moisture, and explained: "You don't have to worry about this, at most when Tonali comes back, he will find a way, you can use the money to buy some ingredients, we can eat some good food these days, and take care of our bodies." ”

Andu was tired of black bread to the core, and compared to Elizabeth's craftsmanship in his memory, Andu couldn't bear it for a moment.

Elizabeth didn't quite understand why Andu had to cook by herself, but out of concern for Andu's body, she could only nod, and then smiled and took out two red, shiny things from her wide waist pocket.

"This is, Apple?"

Andu looked at what he had pulled out of Elizabeth's pocket and was surprised.

"Yes, knowing that you don't like to eat black bread, I bought it from Mrs. Goethe, and it was too expensive to sell on the street outside, a full twelve Grosch! ”

The grosch is the universal currency of Akmund, and it is also the lowest currency, above which are the zloty and the imperial silver dollar, the comparison rate is that one imperial silver dollar is equal to eight zlotys, one zloty is equal to thirty groshi, the grosch only has a coin denomination, which is one, five, ten, and twenty coins, and the coin denomination of the zloty is only one and five, there is no banknote, the coin value of the imperial silver dollar is also one and five, in addition to the imperial silver dollar used on the continent is more paper money denomination, which is ten, twenty, fifty, and one hundred.

Elizabeth looked at Andu expectantly, just waiting to see Andu's satisfied face as he ate.

Andu slowed down, took the apple from Elizabeth's hand, and said with a smile: "Didn't you buy two, let's eat together." ”

"Hmph, that's no, it can't always be cheap for you, hehehehehe. ”

After speaking, I couldn't wait to take a bite first, and I no longer had the idea of waiting to see Andu's expression.

Looking at the little girl in front of her who was eating with a juicy face, Andu, who had been motionless, smiled happily.

After eating the apple, the two chatted a few more words, during which Elizabeth also asked Andu about the sudden appearance of the Ring of Origin in his hand, but Andu prevaricated with the excuse of buying it on the side of the road.

Fortunately, Andu was still a patient at this time, and although Elizabeth was a little strange, she didn't ask much, after all, there were too many people wearing rings in Akmund, even some ordinary people would wear rings, and it was more of a decoration.

This incident made Andudo keep an eye on it, and before getting a new card ring, he still didn't let the people close to him know about the existence of the Origin Ring, so as not to have unnecessary accidents.

Although for the current Andu, there are not many people who need to be guarded against.

After a while, Elizabeth went to prepare for today's dinner, and had been in a hurry on the way back to buy nothing, and now she had to go downstairs to the greengrocer to buy some.

Andu watched Elizabeth go out through the unclosed door, changed into a comfortable sleeping position, and began to think about what Elizabeth had encountered today.

"Could it not be a demon?"

Andu suddenly thought that with his understanding of evil things, if a demon entered Halma, his first thought and goal was definitely to destroy, create chaos, and take the opportunity to create more time and space turbulence, so that more of his kind could come to this world, this was the first choice of demons in Andu's previous experience, and it was by no means attached to an old locust tree, not to mention that he was stupid and did not move immediately after being discovered, and stayed there waiting for the people of the church to find him.

In addition, there was indeed a vision when the Ring of Origin appeared before, so this possibility also exists, but how can the mutation produced by the Ring of Origin make people think that it is an evil thing?

Andu shook his head and ruled out this possibility, with the attributes of the Ring of Origin, it is impossible to give people the illusion of evil things, and either there is a misunderstanding, or it has nothing to do with the Ring of Origin.

As for Roy, Andu didn't have this person in his impression, after all, a sacrifice really didn't have much existence in Andu's past memory, but there were many places to explore in Maras.

As the main city of the western province of the Aaronic Empire, Maras is a truly world-class city, with countless masters sitting in it, and it is also the city with the most frequent demon invasions in the history of "Life", but it still stands in the westernmost part of the empire.

Many of the people Andu knew were there, and if the world was going the same way, then Maras could go and see it in the future.

"Maras has a lot of good things. ”

Andu imagined the bright future with golden light in his eyes, and began to think about the state of the Fu Array Association.

In the Aaronic Empire, the Priests' Association and the Summoners' Association are the two most prosperous associations, but in order to highlight their own style, the Priests' Association is not on the same level as other associations, and generally calls themselves churches, so they are all called churches after a long time.

Because of the support of the Empire, the Summoners Guild has a very transcendent status in the Aaronic Empire, which is not the same in various countries, such as the Bajas Empire separated by the Forbidden Mountains, which mainly admires knights and mages, and the Holy Duchy in the north is hunters and warriors, etc.

The Summoners Association is not like the Priest Church, which advocates walking on the mainland to preach, most of the time the Summoners Association is very quiet, and most of the free time is to engage in summoning or taming all kinds of magical beasts, which is a bit similar to the meaning of animal tamers.

Of course, the Summoners Association is not just about taming Warcraft, any non-human race that can be tamed, the Summoners Association will try to tame, for which many years ago the Elves almost declared war on the Empire......

However, the Summoners Guild is more often to summon creatures in the astral plane, and then choose some more docile ones to try to tame, and because each summoner can only make a life contract with one astral creature, most of the time they will not randomly try to summon the astral plane, but choose to travel spiritually.

To put it bluntly, the summoner can choose to mentally travel to various different space-time spaces after the spiritual awakening and binding the card ring, including the spirit world, the astral world, hell, the abyss, other spaces, and so on.

However, because the spiritual journey is full of unstable factors and various unknowable dangers, the usual summoners will only choose the astral travel, as for the other dimensions, only those big summoners will choose to try, and even so, there are not a few powerful summoners who die every year.

"With the double insurance of the Summoners Association and the Church, it is basically impossible for the mutant locust tree to survive. ”

Andu sighed silently for the mutated locust tree for two seconds, and Elizabeth, who had already prepared dinner, had come to the room with a pot of potato chowder.

Before you know it, it's getting dark.

"Ready to eat!"

Elizabeth placed the bowl full of potato chowder on the mahogany seat on Andu's left-hand side, and was about to get the spoon and bowl for dinner, when there was a sudden knock on the door that had not been heard for a long time.

"Did you make a date with a friend?" Andu asked, looking up with some surprise.

"No, I don't. Elizabeth shook her head in confusion.

At this moment, the knocking sound at the gate sounded again.
