Section 283: Hunter and Prey (5)

Pushing open the door of the prayer hall, the acolyte looked at his bishop: "There is news from the Mage Tower, Your Excellency, they have found the battlefield. A group of technology hunters who accepted the bounty from the city hall died in the northern woods, only a few meters away from the scene.

Three kilometers.”

"Did the tower owner of the mage tower say what the damn thing was?" the bishop turned around and asked.

"Undead, we found two places where the undead appeared. One was on the battlefield, where a fake lich died together with the last technology hunter. The other was by the river, where a fake lich was killed near the river beach.

The Battle Mage can't find a firing point nearby."

"It must have been shot from a very far away position. These hypocritical fake lichs are just puppets in the hands of others. They may have self-awareness, but they would never have thought that a person who could shoot at three hundred or even four hundred

The shooter who hits him from a hundred yards away will pull the trigger on behalf of judgment." The old bishop said here and asked a new question: "Where are Your Excellency Marin, His Highness Faye, and the little wolf."

"The battle mages have found their traces further north. They should have gone north through the woodland. Their destinations should be the Rodal and Sibis areas. They should have passed through the southern plains to go to Sibis City.

… Let the messenger fly and tell our faithful to receive them well.”

"Yes, Your Excellency." The deacon pushed.

The old bishop turned around and continued to look at the small statue in front of him.

Finally laughed.

"A cunning good boy."

In the prayer hall, his comments echoed, as well as the happy laughter of an old man.

………………

"Marian, I have good news and bad news. What do you want to hear first?" The young man who walked in looked at Marian, who looked at him: "You'd better explain it quickly, otherwise

I have to break your head before you finish speaking."

"Okay, let's start with the bad news. Our people in that camp are dead, seven apprentices, all dead." The young man shrugged after finishing speaking.

"Then you'd better tell the good news in a way that I can accept it."

"Well, the good news is that we found the two ogres. They were killed in the forest. It was confirmed that they were killed by the arrows specially used by Marin Guyat. The team of punishers of the Church of Justice found them.

At the same time, many traces of the undead were found in the north, and he escaped from the pursuit of the undead and ogres."

After hearing this news, Marian couldn't wait to walk to the map of Carter Castle and the surrounding areas in front of him.

"You said they went north, then they must have gone to the southern plains of Rodal and Sibis. The most likely destination was Sibis City. This cunning boy... he must have discovered the undead.

Then he instinctively felt that something was wrong. For safety reasons, he chose the farthest path for them, but the safest path with the war dogs of the Just Church."

"What you said is the same as what the old bishop of the Just Church said, and he thinks so too." The young man nodded with some conviction.

"That's a cunning old guy. Don't pay too much attention to it. He has lived longer than you and I." Marian frowned after finishing speaking: "I don't think you should stand there like a fool now. There are seven

Apprentices died in battle, what you have to do now is to go back to your office and write out their death reports one by one, and then I will accompany you to meet the parents of these apprentices."

"Oh, I heard the old bishop said that you used to write it." The young man frowned.

"That's because that damn guy who deserves to go to hell made a bet with me and I lost. Now as his successor, you didn't make a bet with me, so go back to your office right now, or I will

I want to beat you into an idiot on behalf of your family."

"Oh, you are more nagging than my father." Marian's new boss patted himself on the head.

"That's why your father and I are friends, because psychopaths and lunatics are good friends who talk about everything, so go and write your report."

After blowing the young man away, Marian looked at the map in front of him: "Old Hoffman, my old friend, I never thought that even if you died, you would be... the luckiest guy among us brothers.

"

With a sigh, he turned and walked towards the prayer hall.

If this boy were my apprentice, I would definitely wake up laughing in my dreams.

It's a pity that fate has made him your apprentice, and you won't believe that this child will one day save you and your secret-keeping sect in a way that no one thought of.

………………

The Rodal and Xibis areas are very unfamiliar cities to Marin. The only thing he knows is that the city of Xibis is an important passage between the Western Province and the Eastern Province, with a large number of towns.

, and the prosperity brought by the caravans has allowed this area to have a development rate that is not inferior to Carter's Castle, or even greater.

Along the way, Marin led people to spend the night in a town. At the Mercy Church Medical Center in this town, Jessica's brother Link received good treatment. At least he no longer needed a tourniquet for his broken arm.

.

Resurrecting a broken arm requires a lot of materials, and the medical center here will not hold anything back, but Marin thinks it's okay - he has escaped from the forest anyway, and being able to bring Link back to Carter's Castle alive is a victory. Rebirth and other things can't be done until he returns.

As long as the head is still on the neck, a disease that can be cured with money is not a disease.

Early the next morning, when Marin and others left the town, Link could already command his war dog by himself, but Marin also bought a carrier, put the werewolf boy in it, and then rode the war dog himself.

The dog drags the carrier.

Then at noon, Marin felt something was wrong - there were villages and towns along the way. He turned his head and glanced at Faye: "How far are we from Thebes City?"

"Here it is." The two girls and the kid in the tray replied in unison.

"What?" Marin felt like his head was filled with questions.

"The entire southern part of the Rodal and Xibis areas is the city of Xibis, and the northern part is the city of Rodal. These were originally two development points. The ancestors of their city lords led people to develop these two areas for seventy years.

In order to facilitate administrative management, the administrative department of that year merged the two cities into one region. Speaking of which, the Sibis people in the south have always had a bad relationship with the Rodal people in the north." At this point, Faye sighed.

Tone: "It's like the Yankees always think the Yankees are poor."

Okay, it turns out it’s still an unbreakable alliance mode.

Thinking of this, Marin noticed a city appearing in front of him, crossing the hills at his feet. The city that appeared made Marin feel a little amazed - looking at the buildings, there were three-story, four-story, and even five-story buildings.

Although it is not a high-rise building, this place is indeed far beyond Marin's imagination - in his opinion, a common three-story building like Carter's Castle can already represent the height of an era.

"No wonder Logan always said that Carter's Castle is a rural place." Thinking of this, Marin sighed at everything in front of him.

"You heard Cousin Logan bragging. He also said that the Eastern Kingdom has the most natural scenery. He didn't even think about it. I heard there that people wipe their butts with their hands and people only take three baths in their life." Link smiled.

said.

Marin turned around and said, "How can Logan be considered your cousin?"

"Yes." Link nodded: "He is also my sister's cousin."

Marin's face was numb, and his heart was filled with mixed feelings - Logan, your family's surname should be Habsburg.

But in any case, when entering the city, Marin was frightened by the actions of the Just Church - they fled for a day and a night without telling anyone that the Bishop of the Just Church in Sibes City was stunned.

Last night, people were posted at the entrance to the main road entering the city.

With the guidance of the Paladin, Marin and others were let in after their luggage was checked. The check was a little slow, all because of Link. It seemed that an assassin had just appeared in the past few days. Unfortunately, it was with

Like Link, his hand was cut off and he is currently on the run.

The city guards thought Link was suspicious - they didn't dare to tell the truth in front of the Paladins of the Church of Justice, so after Link passed the lie detection, the city guards gave him a certificate and charged him into the city.

The fee is not expensive, only 5 cents.

It is said that this is to prevent refugees from the north from always entering the city.

The reason for charging 50 cents is because the lazy guy has no money in his pocket, and the guy who can find a job won't run around.

After receiving the news, the local Harvest Goddess Church took Link away for further treatment. Jessica did not accompany her brother - in her words, her brother was able to come home alive because of her father.

The best gift.

Marin handed the war dog to the local Goddess of Justice Church, and then prepared to take the girls back to Regensburg.

In front of the portal, Marin was stopped by the Mage Tower members responsible for managing the portal. They said that the master of the Mage Tower in Carter Castle had a small question to ask him.

As long as Marin can answer this little question, the transmission fee will be free, and the next five times will be 50% off.

Hey, you guys from the Mage Tower, do you think you can buy the time of an emerging capitalist with money? Do you think the Marin Guyat in front of you has so much time to waste?

Or... "You asked me where I killed the undead. It was in the north, about five hundred and seventy-nine yards along the river, on the top of a hill."

Seeing the curiosity in the eyes of the tower master in front of him, Marin finally gave him an answer.

It's not because the tower owner said that as long as he gets Marin's answer, he and Marin will share all the winnings in the betting prize pool in half.

Marin can swear.
