Chapter 2447 (ˊˋ) The coming shadow of death

Three days later.

While Edkin, the prime minister of Neverwinter City, was squandering the gold that could never be used up, he was intensively building Neverwinter City, repairing Neverwinter Castle, strengthening Neverwinter City's walls and defenses, and expanding the army, etc.

During the incident, a guard's notification disrupted all his plans.

It is said that a wounded sun elf mage brought back important information from Leilong Town, and he needed to meet their Queen Anne of Neverwinter City immediately?

And the ridiculous thing that the other party wants to see Anne is obviously impossible.

Because even Edkin himself doesn’t know where Annie went to have fun, let alone when she will come back!

Therefore, considering that the other party said that he came back from Leilong Town, and thinking about the terrible situation that Henk and Doric went to investigate and have not returned yet, and no information has been sent back, then think about the so-called 'important information' claimed by the other party.

, he decided to put down the work at hand and listen to what the other party had to say.

soon!

When the sun elf mage Gareth was half-supported and half-carried by the Neverwinter guards into the meeting hall with injuries all over his body, when Edkin saw the other party's miserable state, his heart skipped a beat and he secretly said no.

wonderful.

Then, I heard the information explained in just a few sentences by the other party, especially the shocking news that two black dragons attacked Leilong Town, and then a massive army of undead came forward to surround Leilong Town, and Leilong Town fell instantly.

Afterwards, he was so shocked that he stood up directly from his position as prime minister with a look of disbelief on his face.

"..."

Edkin did not completely believe the other party. He just kept scanning the other party's unfamiliar sun elf appearance and body with suspicious eyes, as if he wanted to penetrate every tired muscle and injured skin of the other party.

You can see the abnormality in it.

But unfortunately, after watching for a long time, he still couldn't see anything wrong with the other party, because the other party's injuries were all real, some were even quite serious, and it shouldn't be like they were pretending.

Furthermore, he really couldn't think of any benefits that the other party could gain from lying to him.

"Are you sure you saw clearly?"

"Is it the Cyr attack on Leilong Town?"

So, after standing up and looking at Holgai, who was also looking at him in shock, Edkin asked sharply again.

Now Doric has been to Leilong Town and the Swamp of the Dead for three days and has not come back yet, while Simon is at the intersection fortress, so he has no way to determine whether what the sun elf in front of him said is true or false, and what if?

If it's true, then the matter is really serious.

"Yes!"

"Master Prime Minister, I am very sure that he is a Serbian!"

"I saw a red-robed wizard, exactly the same as the one I fought with you in the Burning Sun Competition that day. They were all red-robed, bald, and had the mark of Sazastan on their heads."

"I'm a mage. I can tell at a glance whether the other person is a red-robed wizard or a Cyre!"

"I assure you that every word I said before is true!"

"Last night, my 'Giant Hunter' adventure team and I were ordered to go to Leilon Town and the Swamp of the Dead to investigate the disappearance of the Paladin Hunk and the fat dragon."

"Everything was fine when we first arrived. We were going to rest for one night and wait until the next day to take action."

"But I don't think so..."

Having said this, a look of fear flashed across the eyes of the sun elf mage with bloodstains on his face. After a while, he managed to calm down and continued:

"Who would have thought that the black dragon living in the center of the Swamp of the Dead, the two chaotic and evil adult black dragons 'Black Death' and 'Greedy Predator', would actually appear in the sky above Leilong Town under the cover of night?"

"That's a nightmare!"

"Two black dragons, and they are still adults. You should be able to imagine the terrifying situation..."

"They also claimed that they came to eliminate a Dragon Worship organization in Leilong Town that they had been allied with for a long time?"

"We don't know whether what they said is true or not, but in the next few hours, they began to sweep through Leilong Town with poisonous burning mist and dragon breath and killed at least half of the militiamen!"

"Thousands of people died in an instant..."

"But that wasn't the end. It wasn't until the mayor of the town, a certain leader of the Dragon Worship Cult, died completely that they left as suddenly as they came, leaving only corpses on the ground and a

A ruined city.”

"At that time..."

"We thought that was the end of it..."

"But who would have thought that not long after the two black dragons left, before dawn, a large number of undead and various undead surrounded the town from the direction of the Swamp of the Dead, and Leilong Town was just attacked by the two dragons.

I couldn't resist it at all and fell almost instantly."

"They rushed in and started a bloody massacre..."

"Many people died, including the survivors of the black dragon attack, including my teammates, including everyone..."

"Those undead, there are too many of them..."

"There is also the terrifying Serge red-robed wizard, I saw quite a few of them!"

"It was just a face-to-face encounter. Before I could cast a spell, I was blown away by them. If a talisman on my body had not been activated in time, I would be dead now!"

As he spoke, the look of fear and despair in the sun elf mage's eyes became a little thicker, and at the same time, his hands and feet couldn't help but tremble violently, as if he had seen that extremely terrifying and terrible scene again.

General.

"..."

"..."

Edkin, who silently listened to the other party's statement, looked at each other again with Holgai on the side, and did not hide the fear in their eyes at all.

However, Edkin knew that they could not mess up their position at this time. He had to stay calm, because he was now the prime minister of Neverwinter City and was the support of nearly 100,000 people here, especially in a terrible little town.

The girl is missing and you don’t know when you can expect her?

"You just said..."

"Your 'Giant Hunter' adventure team was ordered to go to Thunderlon Town and the Swamp of the Dead to investigate the disappearance of the paladin Hunk and the fat dragon?"

"Who sent you?"

"Is it Doric the Druid? Or Simon the Warlock at the Crossroads Fortress?"

After pondering for a while, he remembered what the other party had just said, and after noticing a key point in it, Edkin suddenly frowned and stared into the eyes of the day elf and asked.

"neither!"

"It was the Queen, the Queen of Neverwinter who hired us and sent us there!"

"She also gave us a big bag of gold coins..."

Having said this, the sun elf mage Gareth couldn't help but laugh sadly.

Although, they should have completed their mission, but at the moment, he is the only survivor in the entire adventure team who has escaped alive. Although he may get more gold coins in the future and can keep them alone, but no matter how much more gold coins he has,

The gold coins are all gone.

Now, the rest of his team may have become part of the undead army, and his 'Giant Hunters' can also be declared disbanded. What can more gold coins do?

Who would have thought that a simple investigation task could be so difficult?

Moreover, that matter actually involved the Dragon Worship Cult, two adult black dragons, Sel's red-robed wizard, and a massive army of undead... If things could happen over again, perhaps, they would not covet those gold coins and choose to accept that

A scary mission, right?

That is simply a nightmare, and it will probably become a lifelong nightmare for him!

"oh!?"

"Annie hired you?"

"That's quite strange."

Hearing this, Edkin and Holgai couldn't help but be startled, and then looked at each other subconsciously again, obviously a little surprised.

"Yes!"

"You don't have to doubt it. When the Queen comes back, you can ask yourself and you will find out."

"but……"

"I'm sorry that we didn't get more information. We only know that the two black dragons in the Swamp of the Dead probably have some cooperation with the Sers, and they should be heading towards Neverwinter?"

"The intersection fortress will definitely not be able to stop those undead, there are too many of them!"

"not to mention!"

"The undead controlled by the red-robed mage can move during the day, so there is not much time to prepare for Neverwinter City."

Although his heart was filled with grief and his body was seriously injured, the sun elf mage Gareth once again solemnly conveyed his warning and judgment to Prime Minister Edkin of Neverwinter in front of him.

"I see!"

“Thank you so much for your message!”

“Very timely!”
