Chapter 69 Burning the Swan

If Arrow were to define it, he would prefer to view the Adventurer's Guild as a task-entrusting guild that solves troubles, rather than as a place specifically used to send adventurers out on adventures.

After all, there always seems to be countless ways to solve a problem. Sometimes adventurers can be used to force a breakthrough, but other times, some means can be used to solve these problems that may seem very difficult at first glance.

The next day, Mermaid Song hired people in Pelican Town. Since the autumn harvest was over and the market was about to close, it was not difficult to find some strong but idle townspeople.

Mermaid Song took these townspeople to the Shining Forest. In just two days, cart after cart of wood was transported from the Shining Forest to the Swan Castle, and piled up around the entire Swan Castle. Fortunately, the Mermaid Song usually

He is very popular in the town, and Airo only spent 8 silver coins to complete these things. Of course, you still have to treat him to a meal.

Waiting until early in the morning on the third day, Arrow and everyone from Mermaid Song came to the outside of Swan Castle again. They raised their heads and looked at the fortress towering above the plain.

He felt the wind direction and confirmed that it was a breeze, suitable for lighting a fire. Then he looked at the grass around the castle and confirmed that the lawn near the firewood area had been dug up. There was no place for the flames to fly out...

"Everyone, get ready. Although we don't have to enter the castle, we still need to prepare for battle."

Following Arrow's order, the heavily armed Brad had already tightened the hammer and shield in his hands, staring at the castle in front of him with all his concentration. It seemed that as long as anything dared to rush out from inside, he would

Become the first barrier for that thing. Coco is now waving the steel wand, and the undead soldiers and skeleton dogs are immediately guarding her. Even Ji Lian is now pulling out two fanged daggers and glanced at the one on his ring finger.

Shadow Ring, silently vigilant.

Seeing that everyone was ready, Ai Luo nodded, lit the fire, lit the torch, and stuffed the torch into the pile of firewood.

At first, the fire didn't burn that fast.

After all, Airo didn't buy fuel, so he could only watch the flames devour the wood that had grown for who knows how many years bit by bit.

However, after about two or three minutes, the flames began to rise, the smoke billowed, and the huge heat began to make people's faces feel a little painful.

Arrow looked at the situation and asked Brad to push another cart filled with wood, light the wood on it, and push it hard into the only entrance to the castle.

The light of the flames shot up into the sky, and Airl even had to take a few steps back.

The increasingly powerful flames began to devour the castle. Soon, the vines on the castle became the fuse of these flames, guiding these destructive forces to any corner of the building.

The flammable materials that had been accumulated in the castle for a long time were activated at this moment. Along with the flames that soared into the sky, the granite castle that originally thought that time would stand still finally ushered in its own glory once again!

"What are you doing?!"

Just as Aero was admiring the flames, a voice came involuntarily from behind.

Turning around, he saw that it was Viscount Rich.

I saw the viscount looking at the burning castle with a horrified look on his face. Airl could tell that his heart must be bleeding.

"I asked you what on earth are you doing!!!"

Seeing the fire engulfing his castle, Viscount Rich was so excited that he immediately grabbed the collar on Airl's chest. Airl quickly ducked to the side and hid behind Brad, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, Viscount, we are here

I’ll help you clean up the castle. Don’t you think that after so many years, only a fire can purify all the filth in it?”

Viscount Rich was already panicking. He opened his mouth wide and looked at the castle he had bought for a lot of gold coins, seeing that it was now completely immersed in flames. In anger and fear, the Viscount stretched out his hand.

Pointing at Airl fiercely: "What purification?! I want you to clean up my castle! I don't want you to burn it down!!! That's my castle! I spent three hundred gold coins to buy it.

The castle that came down!!! How could you just set fire to it? How could you do this! Hurry, put out the fire quickly! Put out the fire quickly! I order you to put out the fire quickly!"

The viscount frantically gave orders, but the two bodyguards behind him were watching the fire helplessly. How could they step forward to put out the fire?

But just when His Excellency the Viscount was furious and wanted to rush over again to catch Ai Luo to settle the score...

"squeak--!"

A shrill scream was suddenly heard from the castle. Immediately afterwards, a poisonous poisonous spider with a green light all over its body and flames on its back, about as tall as Brad, rushed out of there in panic.

Jumped out of the gate.

"alert!"

Seeing that the rotten poisonous spider finally escaped, Ai Luo ignored the Viscount and immediately issued an order. The guild members also immediately formed a battle formation to guard against the rotten poisonous spider in front of them.

But it was obvious that the flames had consumed a lot of the rotten poison spider's strength. It didn't even want to pounce on Ai Luo and the others. It just kept running away, as if it wanted to extinguish the flames on its back. But it ran faster and faster.

The faster these flames burn, the more intensely they burn, which makes it even more panicked.

Finally, in a panic, the poisonous rot spider rushed toward Brad in a daze. Brad immediately sank down, and the spiked shield in his hand suddenly collided with the head of the poisonous rot spider.

The power of this collision is extraordinary. The power of a monster of this size charging with all its strength in a panic is probably no less powerful than Merlin's Fire Spirit Impact!

But Brad, whose shield had been blown away by the Fire Spirit Impact before, now only swayed for a moment before stopping. This result really made Ai Luo happy.

"Do it!"

Amidst Cream's shouts, the undead soldiers quickly circled around the poisonous spider and cut off one of its legs with a sword. The skeleton dog on the other side also bit the other leg so that it could not move freely. Also in

The moment it lost control, Cream jumped up from behind Brad, stabbed the rotten spider's head with two fanged daggers accurately, and then twisted it hard.

Under the flames, the poisonous spider stopped.

The guild members of Mermaid Song had no time to cheer, because the next poisonous spider ran out of the fire screaming...

Waiting for work, Ailuo and the others stood in front of the flame castle, silently watching the poisonous spiders rush out, and then stepped forward to kill them.

This kind of action is not only safe, but also convenient. Otherwise, Airl would never believe that his guild could deal with so many poisonous spiders in one go. This is simply a miracle! Even Viscount Reach saw this

After so many poisonous poisonous spiders escaped from his castle, he finally shut up and stopped talking.

The flames burned all day long, and even at night they showed no sign of slowing down. The sky-high flames illuminated the night, and the townspeople in Pelican Town knew that Arrow was going to burn down the castle. Otherwise, they would definitely think that there was an event going on here.

What a terrifying summoning ritual.

Ai Luo glanced at the rotten poisonous spiders lying on the ground and counted five of them. And they were all of a large type. It seemed that these rotten poisonous spiders should be of the stronger type, and the weaker ones might not even be able to escape.

They are not qualified to come out and be killed.

But just when Ai Luo felt happy about this and was about to call the guild members to go back and come back tomorrow morning, suddenly! Something moved at the top of the castle, and then jumped out from the observation deck!

That's a poisonous spider!

This magical beast fell heavily to the ground outside, but because the Mermaid Song blocked the main entrance of the castle, the poisonous poisonous spider was far away from everyone. It struggled to get up and shook its body slightly.

The scalded skin was smoking. But even so, the poisonous poisonous spider took advantage of the darkness and quickly ran towards the east.

"Brother President! Another one!"

Ai Luo looked up and saw two more poisonous poisonous spiders jumping down from the observation platform. Finally, they struggled to get up and followed the footsteps of the poisonous poisonous spider in front of them and quickly headed eastward.

Brad was a little nervous and asked: "President, are we going to hunt him down?"

Ai Luo thought for a while and finally shook his head: "It's dark now, and it would be detrimental to us to pursue them rashly. What's more, these poisonous poisonous spiders are obviously not as big as the ones here. It seems that there are only some smaller ones.

, the weaker rotten spiders can climb up to the observation tower. Since they are not strong, they should not pose any threat to the town. They fled in the opposite direction of Pelican Town, since they will not disturb the townspeople.

, then we don’t have to spend all our energy chasing after him.”

Now that Arrow has given the answer, Brad doesn't need to say anything more.

The fire continued to burn for a day and a night, and Arrow told his guild members to go back to bed and have a good rest. It was not until the next day that the flames in the castle were completely extinguished.

At dawn, everyone returned to the Swan Castle.

Under the clear sky, the burned Castle of Neuschwanstein looked particularly...scorched.

Originally, Airl thought that although this castle was old, it was covered with vines from top to bottom and had a different charm. It was like the ancient castle described in musicals where a beautiful princess was imprisoned.

The castle, just waiting for some brave man to come to save the general romantic feeling.

But now...well, okay, black swan can also have a different charm.

"My...Swanstein Castle..."

With a plop, Viscount Rich knelt in front of his castle.

He was stunned, the corners of his mouth were twitching, and his hands and feet were somewhat inoperable.
