"What did you say? Ms. Alustriel will resign as the Supreme Mage soon?" During the chat, Ryan got a very important news, that is, this time period happens to be the establishment of the Silver Moon Federation, the first unified regime in the North.
On the eve of , this group of businessmen came here precisely for this matter, because it means that the Northland will further develop, and the recent moon celebration will definitely consume a lot of supplies, and the goods in their hands can be sold at a good price.
.
The caravan in front of Ryan now is a small caravan from Silvermoon City, which is a relatively safe route to Waterdeep City. Some places further away, such as Sandaba or Adba Castle,
It's not something they can go to.
Running long distances for business in this medieval environment is a very dangerous thing. For example, in the world of Lord of the Rings and the world of Song of Ice and Fire, the armies of Ryan's countries spend almost all of their time in peacetime, except for defending the city and training.
It is used to kill those robbers who can never be killed on the trade routes. For example, if this caravan had not encountered Ryan and the others, half of the people would have been able to rush out, and all the goods would have been lost.
"We seem to be a step late. It seems we can only enter the city tomorrow." After cleaning the battlefield, everyone hurried on their way. Unfortunately, when they rushed to the city gate out of breath, they found that the city gate had been closed.
"Then where are we going tonight?" Ryan asked the leader of the caravan after looking at the sunset on the horizon, "It shouldn't be camping."
"That's not the case. There are many small villages around here. I happen to have a friend whose home is nearby. His family runs a hotel part-time. We can stay at his house for one night." The leader of the caravan said as he led the way.
Everyone walked off the main road and walked eastward along the city wall. Not far away, they saw a small village with seven or eight buildings. There was a sign hanging on the door of one of the buildings, with a wooden wine barrel and a sign on it.
A pitchfork.
After the caravan settled down, Ryan immediately took Hermione and Rose Crystal to the tavern on the first floor to inquire about the news. This was a good place for nearby farmers to spend time, and it only cost one silver coin (the loot just now) to invite a few
After a glass of wine, they heard some unusual news.
"Are you wizards?" a rosaceous farmer said while drinking the ale invited by Ryan. "Then you can go visit Andoline. She and her husband, a famous chef in Silvermoon City, live in the fields.
The couple in the house at one end are very nice. But this morning, the worst smell I have ever smelled in my life came out of their chimney, and I am a little worried about them now."
"This sounds like the beginning of a mission." Hermione said to Ryan after the farmer walked away holding the wine glass, "But for us, this is an excellent opportunity to contact local spellcasters and magic.
Go over now."
Ryan agreed with Hermione's point of view. After saying hello to the caravan leader, the three of them walked towards the place pointed by the farmer. It was getting dark at this time, and the farmland with no light pollution seemed very dark. Ryan and
Hermione could only hold a lantern in one hand to illuminate herself, while the rose crystal flew low above their heads, holding a crystal sword in both hands to guard the surroundings.
After walking five or six hundred meters, they saw the small wooden house located in a sparse maple forest. But strangely, the door was ajar, and through the crack in the door, Ryan saw darkness inside the house.
"This is wrong, no normal person would leave the door open at night." Ryan and Hermione pulled out their wands at the same time. Then Ryan created a breeze, opened the door, lit up the wand in his hand, and shined it in. They saw the person facing the door.
It is a living room with a large, comfortable-looking sofa. On the left is an armchair in front of the fireplace, and under the window on the right is a desk.
"There doesn't seem to be anything here, but I heard the sound of tearing things behind the door in front." After a brief look, Ryan and Hermione tiptoed through the living room, but when they walked to the fireplace, they placed it sideways on the fireplace.
The poker on the side suddenly came to life, and then stabbed Ryan who was walking in front.
Ryan reacted in time and used the Iron Armor Curse to block the blow. Then the Rose Crystal swooped down and swung his sword to cut the iron rod in two.
"This should be an activated item. We'd better be more careful." Ryan said after checking the two iron rods that fell to the ground. Considering that there might be enemies in the house, they had just given up on magic detection, but the result was that there was no
Thinking that there are still agencies waiting for them here.
After suffering an attack, the three people continued to move forward vigilantly, but they did not wait for the second round of attacks until they reached the other door of the house.
"The sound is coming from here." Ryan closed his eyes at the door and listened for a few seconds. Then he said to Hermione and Rose Crystal through the soul connection. "It seems that the person inside is probably an enemy. Get ready to fight."
After everyone was ready to fight, Ryan suddenly threw a flash bomb made of sunlight crystals into the room. In an instant, strong sunlight enveloped the entire room, and suddenly a scream came from the left.
The one who screamed was a 2-foot-tall, ultra-small humanoid creature with dark red skin, leathery bat wings, a spiked tail, and curved sharp horns. As running group enthusiasts, Ryan and Hermione immediately
I recognized this as a little devil from Baator Hell.
The next battle ended in an instant. While the little devil was covering his eyes stung by the bright light and unable to react for a moment, Ryan quickly used a confinement spell to restrain it, and then Rose Crystal quickly waved the crystal sword handle.
The struggling little devil chopped into more than a dozen pieces of meat the size of ping pong balls, and the whole process only took a few seconds.
After confirming that the enemy was eliminated, they heard a weak groan. Ryan and Hermione quickly walked to the bedside following the sound, and then saw a scarred man with blood on his face collapsed on the bed, his wrists and ankles tied.
With.
Ryan quickly removed the man's restraints, and Hermione quickly used magic to check his physical condition. The man's condition was much better than expected, and most of the blood on his body was just some ketchup. He looked very good now.
The weakness is due to a paralyzing poison and some dehydration.
After being fed a bottle of antidote and a glass of water, the man came to his senses. He told Ryan and Hermione that he was the husband of the wizard Andoline, the chef Gandru. The reason why he was like this was because he was with his wife
They made a cheese golem together, but when his wife went to the laboratory to study magic, this little devil sent by a devil called the Wogan demon who had an enmity with his wife a long time ago happened to come in and cause trouble, and it triggered the cheese
The golem's berserk mode injured Gundreau, then tied him to the bedroom and beat him continuously.
"Remember, never use fire to deal with that golem. Flames will only make him stronger, and this golem is very strong." After learning that Ryan and the other three planned to destroy the uncontrollable cheese golem.
, Gandrup warned seriously. Apart from that, he only knew that the golem was still in the house, but he didn't know where it was specifically.
Soon, Ryan and the others walked vigilantly from the living room to the dining room. The dining room was neat and tidy and there was nothing strange about it. However, after entering the kitchen through another door, the traces of the golem's destruction appeared in front of them.
: Several iron pots and kettles fell to the floor, the pottery was broken, and broken pieces were scattered all over the room. The walls were splashed with a mixture of various seasonings, and they were still dripping wet.
After walking into the shabby kitchen, they saw a door in the room that looked like a door leading to the basement. It was closed and was tightly held up by a chair, as if someone was afraid that something was going to come out from inside.
Considering what Gundreau just said about the golem not leaving the house, Ryan and the others can probably determine that the golem is in the basement now.
After confirming that the enemy was a constructed golem, Ryan summoned his Madonna of the Rose to float on his chest, then opened the basement door and was the first to walk in. He felt that he just had a magic that could target this kind of enemy.
