Chapter 16 The New Lord (End)
There was a territory, three villages, but there was not even a temple or a priest. According to Rebecca, they seemed to have little interest in worshiping the temple.
If this is a remote mountainous area, then this is normal. It is not reliable for the foolish people to understand education. But after becoming the lord of this place, Avis knew that this place was not so backward. Not to mention being very wealthy, there is a well-off society. So, in this area with extremely powerful theocracy, why are there no temples of faith?
"It seems that my neighbor did a great thing." Avis murmured to himself. Of course, this is not normal, and there seems to be only one reason.
At this moment, Avis actually received a task. The task basically said that there were some strange places in his territory, which Ivis needed to explore one by one. Avis covered his head and suddenly felt a little speechless.
As mentioned earlier, the tasks in this world are not necessarily given by others. As long as you understand some information, you can theoretically infer some tasks. And just now, Ives made up a task through his own brains.
However, this kind of thing really appeared in his territory, so Ives naturally had to check it out. Thinking of this, he was not in the mood to continue eating the not-so-good dessert. He smiled, put down his tableware, and then looked at the two strange girls: "I suddenly had something to do, so you can eat it first."
Rebecca seemed a little unhappy, but she said with understanding: "It seems that our Lord is very busy, so go."
Avis smiled apologetically and then stood up. When he walked to the gate, he said to a servant beside him, "Call your captain over, I have something to do."
"Yes." The attendant was also a Teutonic warrior. He naturally knew who the "captain" was referring to. He didn't think much about it. The attendant immediately turned around and looked for his captain Hong. At this moment, Anliya, who was eating on the dining table, raised her head and looked at the elf boy standing at the door and walking towards the training ground, as if she had realized something.
...
Soon, the well-dressed young captain stood in front of Ivis. Ivis glanced at the captain and said, "Take two people who are good at it, we have something to do."
Hong Shan glanced at the elf boy with a serious expression, and then said, "May I ask... what's going on?" Avis thought for a while, and then said, "It's related to darkness. By the way, it's better to find two magic swordsmen like you. It's hard to hurt this creature with ordinary warriors."
If the vampire profession is not the "Warrior of the Night", they are usually undead mages, and the representative figure is naturally the Pale Lord. So what they face next may be some undead or low-level blood clans.
Avis did not bring the two clergy with him, which was also his consideration. Evil could not hide under the sacred illumination, but the same was true. Taking the clergy who could not restrain his sacred breath was like a policeman catching someone and opening a sirens, telling the other party, "I'm here, hide quickly!" this message.
So Ives needed some elite soldiers, and then there was no requirement. It would be better to use magic, so that Ives would not be too troublesome. Hong Shuang nodded and soon found two people. They were both magic swordsmen of advanced professional level, and they were also considered to be the few talents among the Teutonic warriors.
Avis nodded to them, and then said, "The next place we are going to is the three villages under my command. There may be evil there. But the problem is that we cannot easily detect these evils now, so you need this." Avis took out several scrolls and handed them. But his heart was bleeding: 1. One achievement point... These are all achievement points!
This is a spell scroll for "detecting evil". Anyone who knows some of the most superficial magic will use this thing. Of course, to be able to release this magic, it still requires a relatively high casting skill. Ivis's casting skill is enough, but unfortunately, his level is not enough, so he still needs to borrow the power of the set of scrolls. Now there is no time to make this scroll, Ivis can only exchange one.
After a while of preparation, Avis and others turned over and prepared to set off. At this time, the sky was completely dark, and the grassland in the dark seemed to have a hint of uneasiness. Under the heavy dark clouds, the moon in the sky seemed to have not emitted much strong light.
A gust of cold wind blew over, and the elf boy riding on the horse and others tightened the reins. Feeling the cold signal reflected back from the armor on his hands, Avis said, "Let's go!" Then he grabbed the horse's belly and flew out. After looking at each other, Hong Shan and others also made the same move.
They were all elite warriors, and such dark vision could not hinder their normal movements. Feeling the oncoming breeze, the young elf lord laughed slightly in his heart. "Let me see what appetizers you have prepared for me." He murmured to himself.
But they didn't pay attention. After they left, a silver figure slowly came to the place where they set off. The breeze gradually blew, and a pair of flashing eyes revealed under the floating silver threads.
...
It was already late at night, and several people wearing armor were moving in this Silva village.
They did not light a torch or other lighting tools, but were carefully observing the surroundings. The darkness of this world is not as dim as the darkness of another world. In fact, the biggest lighting tool here is the moon in the sky. Unfortunately, the moon does not seem particularly bright at this time. After all, the dark clouds in the sky are particularly thick tonight.
The young elf lord stood in the middle of the village and then looked around. The deadly silence told him that it was absolutely unusual. Although the other two villages he had patrolled before were not as late as now, there were still many pedestrians. After careful observation, they found many clues. However, there were no pedestrians in this village at this time.
This can only show one situation, that is, the villagers here do not have the habit of going out at night. The nightlife entertainment in this world is pitifully rare, and it feels extremely boring to stay at home at night. But these villagers would rather be bored than come out. It seems that something has happened that makes them dare not come out.
At this time, Ives regretted not bringing Dylanx with him. He should have known something.
"Bang Dang."
At this moment, such a sound came from this quiet night. The elves who were observing the surroundings immediately locked their target like cats who discovered the smell of fish. An obese man was running away quickly. His narrow shadow seemed so eye-catching under the moonlight.
"Catch him!" Avis whispered. Then several people rushed over quickly. The man was just an ordinary person, no, it should be said that his fat body made him worse than ordinary people in running. Although he had already started running with all his might, how could this running speed be comparable to Avis and others who were advanced professional level? In just a few breaths, the poor fat man was caught.
"Oh oh oh... Honor Hei Hei... Lord Black Knight... Leave the little one... Little one, the little one is just a small business..."
The fat man began to speak incoherently. Avis frowned: "Master Black Knight?" He and the Teutonic Warrior were wearing knight armor, but the color was really unrelated to "black". Is it because it was dark and I couldn't see clearly? Avis looked at his silver knight armor that was still reflecting silver light even in the extremely dim moonlight, and frowned for some unknown reason.
A Teutonic warrior used the scroll "Detection of Evil", and then shook his head at Avis: "He is not evil, it should be said to have nothing to do with "evil" - oh, he has some dirt in his heart, but it is still within the scope of a normal person." Detection of Evil is indeed an extremely powerful spell. Not only can it detect the fluctuations of evil, but it can even detect evil thoughts. It should be said that it is worthy of being produced by the system.
But Ives was not attentive to manage the system or something, he just wanted to figure out what was happening now.
At this time, a Teutonic warrior standing beside him said, "Luka? Lord Lord, I think I know who this guy is. This guy is Luka, a merchant here. I saw him when I registered my household registration today." Not all Teutonic warriors went to grow vegetables, and some of them were still performing the missions assigned by Avis. This Teutonic warrior was very lucky to have seen this man named "Luka".
When he heard the word "Lord Lord", the fat man, who felt as if his doomsday had arrived, finally opened his eyes, and what caught his eyes was a beautiful and perfect face.
This face will never be forgotten once you have seen it. So the fat man started crying all of a sudden. He hugged Avis' arm that had not had time to pull it back, and immediately wiped his snot and tears.
ps1: Recently, some people have discriminated against some novels. Alas, I will briefly talk about it here. Any novel has its literary value. I will only think that some novels have not written what they want to write because of the immaturity of the author, and will not think that this book is a inferior novel, nor will it discriminate against it. Those who not only insult the author's hard work, but also insult the author's personal and family... you need to improve your own qualities.
ps2: Two updates will be resumed tomorrow.
Chapter completed!
