Chapter 1280 Chapter 202 New Victims


Chapter 1280 202. New Victims

At first, Joan was not used to this savage life.

It is true that she has lived a strong and independent life by herself since she was a child...but living in the wild and living in the city are completely different things. There are convenient and abundant supplies in the city, and goods from all over the place are placed on shelves and on carpets.

But in the wild, Joan can only find it by herself. There are no shelves here to turn into oil lamps, bread baked in the oven, and firewood chopped into the right shape.

Fortunately, Joan is not a real princess of the empire. She quickly adapted to a life of self-reliance.

At least, with a giant dragon lying next to her, Joan didn't have to worry about her safety like before.

Elimayas doesn't always sleep. She occasionally goes out late at night, and when she comes back, she catches a few gnolls or kobolds - most of the time alive.

Elimayas is also working hard for their little family.

The dead jackals and kobolds will not be wasted, they will be cooked and roasted by the living jackals and kobolds. Joan thought that since they could eat them, she could eat them too, so she divided a piece of breast meat with no distinguishable features.

I have to say that the meat of gnolls is really bad, and the meat of kobolds is really dog... very sour.

As for the depletion of gold mines in the Broken Mountains... it's not a problem for Ilimayas. Dragons are born with the ability to sense treasures. She can clearly "see" which veins still have undiscovered gold mines.

Wanderers also have this ability - they know that there is a scary being coming from a mountain, and they avoid it one after another

Joan can therefore freely relax on the mountain and collect without worrying. Besieged by homeless people.

In the early morning, after the morning mist dissipates, she will come to the foot of the mountain to fetch water, fish, and pick wild vegetables and mushrooms under the warm sunshine.

Relying on the warrior's physical strength, Joanne ate suspected poisonous mushrooms several times but nothing happened. A few days ago, she also found a piece of brown mushroom growing in a cave that was not exposed to the sun.

But after knowing that it was the place where jackals excreted, Joan An never went there again...

After squatting in front of the cold and clear stream and washing her face and hands, Joan An smiled and turned reddish from the cold. Hand, raised his head and looked into the distance, suddenly froze there.

She saw plumes of smoke rising from the mountains in the distance.

What's going on? What happened over there?

……

"A sneeze... a sneeze... a - sneeze!"

Annan on horseback sneezed more than a dozen times in a row.

Luo Fei, who had been sticking to Annan's side since the beginning, came over and said, "Who is thinking about you?"

"From a scientific point of view, sneezing is just an irritation of the nasal mucosa. "

Annan didn't believe it. If anyone missed him and made him sneeze, he would sneeze 114,514 times a day.

"Is it too cold?" Captain Ren whispered.

In order not to miss the opportunity, they chose to travel non-stop at night, and arrived at the location of the evil dragon in the early morning.

Everyone is covered with crystal dew, wet and cold.

Skeeter lit the torch at this time and moved closer to Annan to bring the firelight and warmth

"Thank you..."

The mage's robe was built-in thermal insulation, but Annan smiled as the tip of his nose turned reddish from the cold.

"You're too polite."

"Hmph..."

Gloria couldn't stand Skeeter's low posture and wiped off the dew on her body.

As time goes by, the fog shrouding the valley gradually dissipates, and the sun rises.

Annan activated the cleansing technique to refresh his body, and as the sun rose, his body gradually warmed up.

The fading morning fog also revealed the distant scenery - a winding black smoke rising from behind a low mountain.

"That seems to be our destination..." Vice Captain Skeeter opened the map, "Yes, there is a village there."

"Let's go there!"

Captain Renn rushed out first. The rest of the mercenary group followed closely behind, raising a cloud of dust and rushing to the place where the black smoke was rising.

They arrived a step late. When they arrived, the fire had been completely extinguished, leaving only ruins and scorched earth with black smoke rising.

The charred village was silent, except for the breathing of the war horses, there was no second sound.

"The nameless man, Sean, enter the village to search for survivors!"

Captain Ren instantly switched back to the leader's posture and asked the mage to bless him.

Two rangers went in to explore the way. Not long after, the unknown man dragged an embarrassed villager out from behind the ruins.

"I found this guy trying to escape at the other end of the village."

"Don't kill me...don't kill me..." The villager seemed to be frightened, shrinking into a The group shivered.

The mage cast healing spells on him, gradually relaxing the mood of the villagers.

Captain Renn dismounted and walked up to the man with the sound of armor clashing: "I am Paladin Renn, what is happening here?"

At this time, the identity of a paladin is more useful than a mercenary group.

"The Paladin...the evil dragon...is the evil dragon! It destroyed my village and burned everything!" The villagers lowered their heads and roared in pain.

"Where is it..."

"I don't know, I...I hid it and didn't dare to come out. I ran out at dawn..."

This At that time, another ranger came back.

"Are there any other survivors?" Captain Ren asked him.

The ranger shook his head, Captain Lane sighed, and said to the villagers: "Don't worry, we are here just to defeat the evil dragon."

"Really? Thank God, It's so good..."

Annan watched everything and felt something was wrong.

Elimayas is definitely not that kind of person... a dragon. Big change in temperament? It might be possible, but she would never kill innocent people indiscriminately.

Annan is extremely convinced.

Since it was not Ilimoyas who committed the massacre, it is worth considering who slaughtered the village and poured dirty water on Ilimoyas...

Out Doubt? Looking at the indignant look of the Oscuras mercenary group, it would be easy to arouse ill feelings by saying so.

Annan simply pretended to be a young noble who was ignorant of the world and asked: "Why was the village burned down? Isn't that evil dragon a blue dragon? I remember that red dragons only like to use fire..."< br>
The villagers lowered their heads and trembled. Skeeter explained that the dragon's dragon language magic did not limit race.

Captain Ren also said: "We have explored Kilian's territory and Boyi Village, and there are traces of fire there."

Annan said nothing and looked at the villagers thoughtfully.

In addition to timidity and nervousness, the emotions he continuously exuded were also...fear.

The question is, what is he afraid of?

Annan approached the villagers in front of the team members, looked at them carefully and suddenly said: "Are you a slave trader?"

The villagers were stunned.

"I've seen you before, you and other slave traders were selling slaves in the market."

"I'm not, I'm a villager!" The villagers shouted in panic.

Annan didn't give him time to think, and continued to ask: "What is the name of this village, who is the village leader, how many people are in your family, and what do you do for a living?"

The villagers were stunned. He hesitated.
