Chapter 137 Magic 1


Chapter 137 Magic 1

“Sneeze!”

Paul, who was sitting on the horse, sneezed. He took out his handkerchief and wiped his nose, then wrapped it tightly around himself. The clothes on the body.

After entering November, the weather is getting colder and colder.

“After the shipyard builds another batch of ships, I will definitely launch a dedicated inland waterway for carrying people, so I will call it a ‘public transportation ship’.”

"Let these boats run back and forth along the Vis River. Everyone can get on the boat for only one or two copper coins and get off the boat after reaching their destination."

"When it comes to weather like today, there is no need to risk it. After running around outside in the cold wind, wouldn't it be nice to light a small stove in the cabin and enjoy the scenery on both sides of the river while warming up? "

Paul kept introducing his ideas to everyone around him.

"What a great idea you have!"

Lieutenant Victor, who serves as the captain of the bodyguard, flatters him at the right time.

Paul glanced at the female consultant Ladi next to him. When he was a little disappointed, the other person seemed not to listen to what he just said. She still looked like she was facing an enemy and looked around with vigilant eyes from time to time.

He made a helpless gesture to the captain of the guard, "Oh~~ She has been like this since she left Huxin Town in the morning."

Victor scratched his head and said: "Well... I think it's right for Miss Ladi to be so vigilant, although it's a bit inconsistent for a girl to behave like this."

After Paul decided to take a trip to Port Fulan, The female consultant offered to go with him. At first, Paul thought she was going out to relax or something, but the reason given by the female consultant made him feel extremely strange:

"Your Majesty, Earl, I am here for you. After some divination, you may encounter some bad things on the way. Of course, this is just a possibility, but there is nothing wrong with it. Please let me go with you. I have learned some things as an adventurer! Skills should be useful to you ”

Divination? She couldn't be joking. As a serious scholar, she still believed this. But seeing that she was indeed worried about her own safety, Paul agreed to her request to go with him.

"Then why don't you just stop me from traveling this time?"

"The divination results show that even if you stay in Lake Town, you will not be able to escape this bad luck."

"Uh...Okay."

Then Ladi put on the outfit she used to wear as an adventurer, and carried the bow and arrow that had killed the black-spotted tiger. He hit the road together.

The female advisor also strongly suggested that he take more guards with him. Paul agreed and took two squads of internal guard soldiers with him to Port Fulan under the command of the captain of the guard, Victor.

Just when Paul was sighing in his heart that this is really an ignorant era, and even La Di, a scholar, is not immune to the vulgarity, he heard the female consultant shout: "If there is a situation, stop!"

Everyone was startled by him and tightened their reins one after another, and the whole team stopped moving forward.

The female consultant pointed forward with her finger, and everyone looked along. About 500 meters away, there was indeed someone walking towards them along the road.

Paul complained: "Hey, are you neurotic? That might be just an ordinary passerby."

"I have been staring at that person for ten minutes, and I have always had a feeling in my heart that he has ill intentions towards us. Lord Earl, please trust my intuition. My intuition has always been accurate."

"Ten minutes? We just saw him. How is your eyesight so good? Well, I'm really upset by what you said. Victor, send someone over to interrogate him."

"Yes, Earl. "My lord."

Just as the captain of the guard was about to call people over, the man in front seemed to notice them. He stopped and stared at the team, and then quickly continued walking this way. Come, and walk impartially in the middle of the road, without any intention of giving way.

You must know that Paul's team is under the banner of the Graiman family. A red flag with a flying dragon pattern is extremely eye-catching. As long as he is not blind, no one who sees this flag dares to block the road. Right in the middle?

The captain of the guard noticed something unusual and shouted: "Alert!"

The guards clenched their weapons one after another, and there was a clatter of swords being unsheathed.

Paul looked forward and saw this tall man, wrapped in a black cloak, which was blowing in the cold wind. His face was obscured by the hood and could not be seen clearly. "Shit! You're not really here to make trouble, are you? Looking at Niu B's coaxing momentum, he really feels like a lone assassin!"

Paul complained in his heart: "This The guy won’t suddenly rush into our team and start a musou, right? That’s how it’s done in movies and anime.”

The other party was getting closer and closer, and Victor shouted to the man: "Stranger, stop your steps! In front of you is the team of Count Paul Greyman, Lord of Arda. Stop immediately and tell your purpose." "

The man in the cloak stopped about 50 meters away from the team, and a deep voice came from the hood:

"Are you Paul Grayman? Humph! It really took no effort at all. I didn’t expect to meet him halfway, and it saved me a trip to Huxin Town.”

The sound was obviously not loud, but it was clear and unmistakable from a long distance away. reached everyone's ears.

Female consultant Ladi immediately stood in front of Paul, frowning and staring at the visitor. She said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, something strange may happen later. Please be mentally prepared.”

Paul was confused, but it was certain that the person coming here had bad intentions. Seeing the usually steady female consultant being so nervous, he felt anxious.

The other thing that made him feel strange was that the two teams on his side had dozens of people in total, while the other team only had one person, but there was a faint sense of oppression coming over him.

The captain of the guard, Victor, shouted angrily: "Guard, take down this rude person!"

He called the lord by his name and arrogantly said that he had nothing to gain. It took a lot of effort, as if the earl was like an object that could be manipulated at will. He didn't take the earl seriously, and he didn't take him as the captain of the guard seriously.

The three soldiers ran over immediately, only to see the cloaked man standing there obediently, letting two soldiers pinch his arms on the left and right, while the third soldier took out a rope and tried to tie him up.

Just when the two soldiers on the left and right tried to break his arms back, something happened suddenly!

The cloaked man suddenly raised his arms, grabbed the two soldiers' necks tightly, and pushed their heads towards the front of his chest.

Like babies unable to resist, the heads of the two soldiers touched each other instantly. Under the stunned eyes of everyone, the place where their foreheads met unexpectedly deflated, and their brains splattered everywhere. .

As soon as the man in the cloak let go, the two corpses fell to the ground weakly. He shook his head and said, "Tsk! The newly bought clothes are stained again!"

Although he was complaining, his tone was It was extremely relaxed, as if I had just crushed two little bugs to death.

He stuck out his tongue and licked the brain splattered at the corner of his mouth, and said ruefully: "But it's been a long time since I felt like this!"

The two companions were killed in the blink of an eye. The remaining soldier holding the rope was so frightened that he didn't even have the strength to escape. He collapsed on the ground, his body trembling, and his horrified eyes looked at the person in front of him, as if he was looking at a demon running out of hell. .

"First team, protect the count! Second team, come forward with me!"

The captain of the guard, Victor, was the first to react and gave the order immediately.

A small team of soldiers surrounded Paul, who had not yet reacted, and the female consultant, who was mumbling something and didn't know what to say. They were guarding the surroundings with their swords outward. They couldn't just focus on one direction at this time, in case something happened. What to do if the enemy attacks in the east and in the west?

The soldiers from another team gathered around the captain of the guard and approached the cloaked man together.

The man in the cloak also took steps and continued walking towards Paul. He made strange movements with his right hand and muttered some inexplicable words in his mouth.

"Stoneskin..." An understandable word combination came out of his mouth.

At this moment, the female consultant next to Paul stopped whispering. She paused and whispered: "Concentrate on it..."

Paul suddenly felt something moving in his chest. Looking down, a stone hanging on my chest was shaking slightly, and its original gray appearance was slowly turning black...

I heard that the first 24 hours after it is released will require tens of thousands of updates, so I stayed up all night today to code another chapter.
