After the battle, the town calmed down again, with only the sounds of messy footsteps and rushing water.
Woody sat quietly next to Baron Cam's body, with the firelight behind him.
The figure moves.
"Try harder!"
"Hey!"
"One two, one two."
The townspeople were shouting slogans and extinguishing the fire. In addition to igniting Baron Cam's body, the flames also ignited many houses near the long street.
The guards of the Nudong Merchant Group were also helping. After all, they were the culprits of the fire, and the citizens of Green Creek Town were the victims.
They also understood that what happened in the tavern tonight was essentially related to Baron Cam, and the residents here did not know about it.
Therefore, he did not express his anger, but under Cecil's order, he always restrained the conflict with Green Creek Town.
"How are you feeling?"
Suddenly, Woody heard the sound of footsteps, accompanied by a light sound.
The owner of the Nudong Merchant Group, Northland Court Mage Cecil.
She was still in the same outfit, but the cat in her hand had disappeared and went to play somewhere.
"good."
These two simple words revealed Woody's desire not to talk too much, and Cecil smiled slightly after hearing this.
"It seems like this isn't the first time you've killed this kind of monster."
"Sengu said it was you who told him the characteristics of this monster, otherwise they might have suffered heavy losses."
"He asked me to thank you on his behalf."
"Woody."
Obviously, between the two, Cecil's desire to inquire and explore was extremely strong after the war.
But Woody didn't want to say too much, he just nodded slightly.
"I just occasionally learned about it from an old man's mouth. He told me a lot of knowledge about other dimensions. This is the reason for this trip."
Woody made his purpose vague, but there was no flaw in his words. After all, this knowledge was indeed told to him by an old man, but he only learned it during the game in his previous life.
"Oh, is that so? That mysterious old man..."
Cecil's mage's curiosity affected her, but when she saw that Woody had closed his eyes at some point, he immediately fell silent, knowing that there would be no point in asking any more questions. Obviously, this was a problem for him.
A secret that cannot be told.
But Cecil didn't mind and wasn't angry.
After all, who doesn’t have many secrets?
So, she changed the topic, and this topic made Woody immediately open his eyes, which were originally closed.
"Actually, I know you. You smell like her,"
"who?"
Woody thought it was the Spider Goddess or something else on him that caught Cecil's attention, but he didn't expect that the name she said made him freeze immediately.
"Lord Yogito!"
"Don't you know?"
Cecil looked very surprised, but he quickly relaxed.
"That's right. Master Youdit rarely takes the initiative to talk to humans about this. Hehe, you are favored by her, otherwise I would not let the caravan people arrange you to join us."
After the battle just now, the court mage from the North has obviously regarded Woody as an opponent of the same level. Coupled with the relationship with the bronze dragon Yudit, the relationship has begun to become closer.
As long as Woody raised his head slightly, he could see that curious and beautiful face, and his warm breath could even blow the black hair on his forehead.
He should be the closest person to Cecil in the caravan now, apart from the cat.
But what he was thinking more about was not this, but Yudit.
He also recalled that one of his specialties, "The Majesty of the Storm", was obviously given to him by Judit, and Cecil must have noticed this. Woody didn't know much about his original father's romantic history.
He was even more curious about the relationship between the Northland and the Bronze Dragon.
He remembered that the Winter Kingdom of Navia seemed to have no dealings with dragons. The mythical locks surrounding the capital city of Cormilan even refused to allow any dragons to enter.
How could the bronze dragon be related to the young mage from Kermilan?
Seeing Woody's curious gaze cast in his direction, Cecil smiled slightly. Her goal was achieved.
Woody initially resisted the conversation between the two, but she took the initiative to point out the opportunity for their relationship, and the conditions for continued communication were established.
So, she began to explain in a leisurely manner the purpose of her mission and the connection between Udit and them.
Only then did Woody know that Cecil was actually Judith's mage apprentice, so far as she was qualified.
Moreover, it is not that there are no giant dragons in Komilan, but the mage towers built by the giant dragons are all standing outside the city, and Judit's mage tower is also there.
Cecil also smiled and told the interesting story of entering the Dragon Mage Tower. He said that after entering, the space inside was much larger than the outside, and the stairs were more than ten times the normal human ladder, and the spoon and dining table were also ten times larger.
Several times the size.
On the other hand, after Woody heard that Judith actually belonged to the Thousand Towers, his thoughts became twisted in his mind, because he learned about Judith's title in Komilan from Cecil's mouth.
"Eye of the Storm Judith."
As a legendary bronze dragon, he certainly deserves the title, but the title Eye of the Storm reminded him of one of the missing legendary mages of the Thousand Towers Society, and there was also one named Eye of the Storm.
In historical memory, when the Mother Tree of Corruption arrived, they disappeared from this plane together, leaving only the last legendary mage and the queen of Cormilan, Lani Carolina Fischer, alone.
.
If this news were placed on the forum in the previous life, it would be a big news. After all, the bronze dragon's nature is absolutely impossible to abandon. In other words, the previous words of leaving Asenlant out of fear of the corrupt mother tree were all
It’s nonsense, but there are deeper reasons behind it.
Is this a hidden mission?
Hidden missions that have not been developed by anyone!
Thinking about it, the adventurer's heart was about to move, but he quickly calmed down. The scene caused to Asen Lant after the arrival of the Corruption Mother Tree was still vivid in his mind. It was best to change his place to die. What's more, he was now
He is not alone, there are Weilanduo and his aunt behind him.
But with that said, it is very likely that Yudit did not escape from this plane, but went to perform some kind of mission and finally... died?
On the last day when Asenrant was swallowed by the deformed spores of the corrupted mother tree, Woody did not see the existence of the dragon in the team leaving Asenant.
The two confirmed it. Thinking of this, Woody couldn't help but be silent for a while, and the original intention of talking faded away.
But Cecil didn't know why Woody had lost the desire to talk again, and he was still telling eloquent stories about himself in the Dragon Mage Tower and when he was taught by Udit, in an attempt to bring the two of them closer together.
relation.
"What about your familiar?"
Woody noticed that Cecil was not holding the tabby cat in his hands, but what he didn't expect was that Cecil shook his head.
"That's not a magic pet, it's a task assigned to me by Teacher Eudit. She also asked me to send it to the Storm Strait as soon as possible. If she hadn't made it difficult for me to complete the academy task in my hands, I would have actually abandoned the caravan now.
I went to complete the mission alone."
"Storm Strait."
This place name caught Woody's attention. It is a special scene on the outskirts of Northland. Two cliffs confront each other, and there are strong waves all year round.
Woody had been there in his previous life, and knew that at the top of the strait was a shrine to a dragon that had lost half of its body.
It can also be regarded as a "legendary place" in the game.
After arriving, as long as you worship him, in addition to giving you a certain affinity with metal dragons for the first time, every time you pray in the future, the shrine will give you a resistance BUFF against the fierce momentum of dragons, which lasts for a week.
Therefore, many Northland players will go to Storm Strait to renew their buffs before preparing to slay the dragon.
Moreover, at that time, many players wanted to explore this past relationship with the dragon, and they discussed it on the forum, but no clues were ever found.
Over time, these things were forgotten.
However, Cecil's words reminded him that it seemed that these were all related to the bronze dragon. However, he did not talk too much to ask about the bronze dragon's requirements. Instead, he kept this in his heart silently.
Before the World Whale, he did not have such a strong desire to explore.
"What about you? How did you meet Teacher Yudit?"
The beautiful mage who had squatted on the other side of Woody, almost shoulder to shoulder, tilted his head and looked at the side face of the black-haired young man in front of him, with a curious look on his face.
"I don't know either. As soon as I woke up from sleep, I felt the power of a storm in my body."
Although Woody had some guesses in his mind, he still calmly recounted what had happened, without adding or deleting, and told her the strangeness he noticed in his body when he woke up that morning.
But he still mentioned the story of the Underdark.
"I heard that a legendary dragon appeared and destroyed a drow underground city with just one breath."
"That must be Teacher Yudit's masterpiece! Only her breath can achieve an effect similar to that of a nine-ring spell."
After hearing the story, Cecil affirmed without hesitation.
"Legendary item?"
Woody has never heard that the breath of the legendary dragon can be compared to the nine-level spell. Generally speaking, even for the ancient red dragon, his breath is at most slightly stronger than the extremely effective fireball spell, which is the level of the seven-level spell. If you want
Upgrading to level 9 is far greater than the gap between levels 1-7. After much deliberation, I can only blame the legendary items for this problem.
"Yes, the Storm Neck Armor can enhance the breathing ability. The teacher told us about it during the magic items class."
"Mages must know how to use rare objects, staffs, and magic items. They are our teeth and claws."
Cecil recited the words that he heard deeply in his memory when he was an apprentice.
Suddenly, at this time, a group of people walked not far away from this long street, each holding a torch. From a distance, it looked like a long dragon. The aborigines of Green Creek Town who were with the Nudong Merchant Group just now, now
Shi was standing at the head of the faucet, explaining something emotionally.
But he was quickly persuaded to stop.
"It seems that the wonderful chat is over. I'm going to take a look first. You can have a good rest!"
Cecil also saw the argument at the street corner, so he had no desire to continue the conversation. Anyway, the journey was still long, and there were enough opportunities for the two of them to chat.
Woody glanced at it and looked away. This was something Cecil could solve. It wouldn't have much impact if he couldn't get through it.
The mage was powerful enough to make them all calm down and sit down to negotiate.
What he needs to do now is...
Woody looked at Baron Cam's body not far away. Due to the flames, in addition to the smell of blood, there was also a smell of burnt meat in the air.
But these did not affect him. He is now thinking about which one he should replace if he uses the Spirit Hunting Oath. The natural shrine is now occupied by the will of the spider goddess Rose, and it will take some time for his new natural shrine. If
If you use it now, it will definitely replace a previous natural gift.
It would be fine if they were just simple benefits such as dancing with sharks, and they are not used now, but the current ones are all benefits that Woody thinks are good, and it would be a pity to replace them rashly.
The three slots he currently has are the three strongest blessings he can possess.
Evil Nemesis, Extraordinary and Telepathy.
In the long run, telepathy and replacement will not cause any harm, but considering the spider goddess Rose's divine will, Woody still thinks this talent is more important. After all, if Rose discovers what she has done, she plans to use spider magic to deal with it.
Assassinate him, and that perception will become the last guarantee before he reacts.
This is also the reason why he is confused.
However, he didn't have much time to struggle. Cecil led a few people to where he was. Naturally, the purpose was not to look at him, but to point at the body behind him.
"Look, this is what your lord looks like, as everyone present can testify."
Although the dead Baron Cam had long lost his original terror and bloat, and looked like a pile of rotten flesh, his huge body and purgatory facial features still made the natives of Green Creek Town take half a step back.
With a look of panic, after all, the mysterious mage told them earlier that their lord was a person who made a deal with the devil.
"But, on the Viscount's side..."
Someone among the people present whispered, obviously worried that the Baron's death would affect Viscount Grover's attitude towards Green Creek Town. After all, Green Creek Town also belonged to Viscount Grover's territory to a certain extent.
"Don't worry about it. When the time comes, all you have to do is say we did it, and he won't do anything to you."
"When the baron's inheritance arrives, the people in your town can each share some of it."
Cecil said nonchalantly, and when he said this, everyone who was still worried at first breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at the people of the Nudong Merchant Group without any hostility anymore, especially the words about dividing the inheritance.
It made many people's eyes light up.
Then he looked at the body of Baron Cam lying on the ground, and he also showed a look of disgust.
"Damn devil!"
"It's all because of you!"
…
Amidst the curses, Woody's ears trembled slightly. Just now, he heard the sound of something falling to the south.
