Hao Ren turned his head expressionlessly, looking at the wizard who had always hidden his face in the shadow of his hood, he could not see the full picture of the other party, only to see a thin, unshaven chin peeking out from the brim of the hood."
What do you mean?"
Hao Ren said quietly."
I'm very observant," the wizard tilted his head slightly, his voice sounding hollow as if magically processed, "I can see that you're not in a hurry to seek a place of refuge, so you're not interested in the 'Shadow City' that the witches mentioned, you approached them for something else." ”Hao Ren looked at the wizard who suddenly came over to speak curiously, and suddenly shrugged his shoulders: "Say whatever you want, anyway, everyone got together for their own interests, and no one has any secrets these days."
Neither the cause nor the process matter, the result is as expected. ”"You're right," the hooded wizard seemed to chuckle softly, "it doesn't matter what the cause or the process is, it just turns out as expected—so Lady Mary doesn't really care where you come from or what you want to do, they just need the power of you and your companion." ”Hao Ren felt more and more that this wizard was strange, so he asked straight to the point: "You shouldn't have come to me just to talk about this, right?"
”"Have you heard of the Knights of the Night Watch in Harron?"
Hao Ren was stunned for a moment, feeling that he had heard a completely unfamiliar word, and it seemed that the wizard in front of him had misunderstood something: did he think that this guy who suddenly appeared was a peer in a certain field?
Or is it someone who has the same goal as him?
Hao Ren was not sure if the "Knight of the Night Watch of Harron" had a connection with Vivien's sleeping place, so he vaguely said, "This is an important question?"
”"No, it seems you didn't know about this," the hooded wizard simply ended the conversation after seeing Hao Ren's reaction, "Well, maybe you're not the 'companion' I thought you were, sorry for taking up your time - but it's still pleasant to be able to talk to a powerful wizard." ”After saying this, this strange wizard turned his head and was about to walk away, but Hao Ren saw this situation and hurriedly shouted from behind: "Hey, wait!
I don't know your name yet - I can't keep calling you a hood, can I?
”The hooded wizard's footsteps paused, and after a moment his voice floated over: "Walking outside, it's inconvenient to reveal your real name, you can call me Barn, this is a pseudonym I commonly use in the dark arts world, and it is also the name I tell witches." ”After this Barn walked away, Hao Ren pouted: "Tsk......
I still wonder if I'm already an acting school......
I'm most annoyed to deal with this kind of discerning guy, why are you so smart. ”"Landlord, I'm full!"
Lily jumped over without warning, and the husky girl was fully happy during the meal, and then looked at the oily face, "Eh, landlord, your expression is so strange, what's going on?"
”"It's nothing, I'm playing a no-prize quiz with a mysterious guy," Hao Ren shook his head, and then suddenly thought that although the husky in front of him didn't understand anything, he was at least a character who had lived for a century, and he had read a lot of all kinds of messy books, so he might know some strange things, so he continued, "By the way, do you know an organization or term called 'Harron's Night Watch'?"
”"The knights of the night watch in Harron?
Sounds like someone's thug team," Lily thought for a moment and shook her head dryly, "I don't know."
Landlord, what is this for?
”"Nothing, just ask, but if you hear anyone talking about this, remember to let me know."
The husky girl nodded vigorously, happily agreed, without much thought, Hao Ren saw the girl's appearance and immediately felt comfortable: it is better to deal with the heartless and eyeless......
Because he was not familiar with the witches, Hao Ren didn't ask anyone to inquire about the origin of that Barn, anyway, his purpose here was quite simple, just to find Vivien's sleeping place, so he didn't bother to inquire about the ins and outs of unrelated personnel.In the next step, he was going to ask Mrs.
Mary for more information about "Hethiana", so as to confirm whether it was the little bat spirit of the bear child he knew, although he didn't think that Hethiana's ability would be caught by a group of human exorcists, but who can say for sure what has been going on for thousands of years, it is hard to guarantee that the little bat has had such an experience of capsizing in the gutter in the past, and then she hid this matter because she was ashamed, no one knows......
But just as Hao Ren was about to talk to Lady Mary, a sound of flapping his wings suddenly came from the night sky, interrupting his movements.When the witches heard this, they all stopped talking and looked up at the sky in unison.The fog that enveloped the entire cemetery opened a gap, and a white owl, which stood out in the night sky, landed steadily in front of the witch Helen through the night, this owl had a white feather on its head, and its eyes revealed a human-like aura, apparently also a magical pet."
Roma!"
Helen saw the owl and immediately exclaimed, "Why has it been so long?"
What did you find?
”The owl, known as Roma, flapped his wings and exclaimed in a deep baritone: "Ah—this lonely and bleak night, like my lonely and sad heart, poor Roma shuttles through the darkness, but can only convey more sad news than the darkness, listen to the cool night breeze, in the wind is the words that are like weeping, poor Roman, what a disturbing ...... you have brought this time" Helen the witch raised her leg and stomped on the table, and her toes brushed the owl's head and fell:" Zhan Ru Niang (paraphrase)!
Getting to the point!
”"The witch Hethanna was sentenced to be burned at the stake for her conclusive evidence of performing dark magic and has pleaded guilty, and it will be roast......ed at noon tomorrow," Hao Ren lay down on the spot, and he never saw that this beautiful witch who looked the most kind still had this side?
Then he reacted to something more important: tomorrow there will be a public execution in the city to burn the witch named "Hethiana"?
The news also caused an immediate uproar among the other witches, and the sickly-faced witch was the first to stand up: "We must start acting immediately." ”Lady Mary also stepped forward: "Humanity has finally decided to do it - Hethana's departure from the church dungeon is our best and last chance to make a move, and we must rescue her before the execution at noon tomorrow!"
”One of the witches questioned loudly, "But the witchers are coming......
"So we're going to get all done before the witchers actually arrive," Lady Mary looked over with a sharp gaze, "Humanity has chosen to do it tomorrow, and that's giving us a chance."
The witchers won't be coming so soon, and before they arrive, we have every time to rescue the emissary from the City of Shadows and evacuate safely. ”Several witches nodded slightly after hearing Lady Mary's words, but there were still some people with hesitant looks on their faces: the "intelligence" that Hao Ren brought "the witcher is coming" obviously shook the courage of these people, they may have made a good plan and were full of confidence before, but when the variable of witcher appeared, their confidence seemed to be a little insufficient."
A comfortable life does not fall from the sky, and if we want to live a free life in the paradise of dark magic, we must take a little risk in advance, otherwise we will have to continue to live a life of hiding in Tibet.And what if there were witchers?
Wizard Hao Ren has proven that witchers are not invincible, and now that we have such a powerful wizard in our group, and a werewolf to help, coupled with the strength of all of us, witchers are no longer scary!
But—" said Lady Mary, her voice growing colder, "if there is still anyone who wants to quit, they can do so now, and I will 'grant' the request." ”Helen coughed twice and looked at Hao Ren: "Wizard, can you roughly judge the number of those witchers?"
”"Didn't I say it before, I can't tell you how many people there are.But I'm sure they're not many, a small team of three or four people at most. ”Hao Ren hurriedly said less about his fictional "witchers" at this time, because he was afraid that these witches would really be frightened by the witchers, so he simply gave up the task and went home.Hearing this, the witches really seemed much calmer.Madame Mary looked at the situation in front of her with satisfaction, and raised her arms: "Very good, then we will start at noon tomorrow, and the specific plan of action ......"
Hao Ren listened to the witch explain the action plan for tomorrow's "robbery of the law field", and his thoughts spread while deducing the next day's actions in his mind.Could that "blood mage" named Hethiana be the little bat spirit he knew?
Or is it just a duplicate name?
If it was her, how could she be captured by a bunch of humans?
And why is he considered a "blood mage"?
Blood mages also use blood magic, but they are two completely different concepts from vampires, what happened in between?
And while the witches are hiding in the cemetery to plan a big operation, a group of roaders dressed in black are raising a bonfire in an open field to rest on a dirt road far from the city.Their horses were tethered to dead trees by the roadside, and shining silver swords hung from their saddles.A tall leader stood up from the campfire and looked in the direction of the city: in the darkness of the night, there were only very faint and sporadic lights in the direction of the city, and it was almost impossible to see any details, but the leader was so attentive that he seemed to have seen everything in the distance.A young deputy followed and stood up: "Elder, is this kind of small place really worth your own trip?"

”The leader glanced back at the inexperienced junior, and then turned his head away: "A qualified hunter never takes any hunt lightly, and ......
You have no idea how dangerous she is, especially when she wakes up......"
