Owen didn't say anything about it, he had told Roland about it, but Bishop Roland signaled that the matter had been reported to him and told him not to bother.Owen was also used to being nosy, so even if the officiant's actions were a little violated, he didn't see it.After the two entered the city, Julian first went to the shop that sold farm tools, and since it was the spring ploughing season, many merchants lined up at the door, hoping to buy new farm tools more quickly and ship them back to make a lot of money.The workshop in the territory was open almost day and night, and even then, it barely met the needs of the shop.Business here is so hot that it is impossible to say that no one is jealous, and there are some people who secretly copy and sell farm tools, only to be served by Owen and his group of men with all the workers in the workshop.After the end, he also accused those who secretly made farm tools for being so bold that they dared to copy the things of the church, and they were really impatient.Of course, Owen's original words must have been more tactful, but no matter how tactful, the meaning was that meaning, which immediately made the few nobles who united and thought that they could make a fortune ignoring Julian.Who doesn't know that the church here in Munch City doesn't sell any farm tools at all, and even if they dig the foot of the wall, it's Julian's corner.Aren't you Owen just giving Julian a head, when who doesn't know!
Owen said: That's right, what if I just gave Julian a head?
You have the ability to refute me!
The nobles who are not reasonable: quietly suffered a loss, and this group of nobles also understood that the relationship between Owen and Julian was really good, and there was obviously no room for them to take advantage of this matter.Julian was very pleased with this, why did he give the drawings of farm tools to the church and the king in the first place?
Not to prevent this day!
In this world without patent rights, no one dares to covet only those things that are held by big powers.Of course, out of the Maggie Kingdom, if someone from the four empires wants someone to copy and monopolize it, he must not be able to think about it, but it doesn't matter, the workshops in his territory are so big, and now they are too busy to occupy more territory.Business in the farm tool shop was as good as ever, and Julian just came to the shop for a walk, looked at the ledger and left.Owen and he went to the Gray Tower Restaurant for lunch, and while they were chatting and teasing each other, a hooded figure slowly walked into the gate of Munch City.One of the guards at the gate thought he was strange and stopped him to ask for an entrance fee, but the man stopped, took out two dirty silver coins from his bosom, and put them in the guard's hand.The guard touched the other man's finger as he took the silver coin, and the cold and stiff touch made him shiver and look at the man suspiciously.The hooded figure didn't speak, just looked at the guard quietly, and the guard originally wanted to question him, but suddenly felt a trance, and inexplicably shifted his gaze to other directions.His companion was checking on the other person, and when he understood the matter, he came to him and asked, "What did that person do?"
The guard was stunned for a moment: what for?
His friend thought he was joking and bumped into him: Just the hooded man just now, didn't you say that he was a little suspicious and wanted to ask?
With a hood?
The guard's expression was dazed for a moment, and then he shook his head: Oh, you said he, it's nothing, it's normal.His friend didn't think much of it, and it happened that someone came outside the door again, and he quickly put the matter down.The guard felt in a trance all afternoon, he didn't even notice that after he got the two silver coins, he didn't throw them into the box of city money, but kept them in his hand to play, and every time he played with it, a gray gas melted into his body, his fingers had turned black, and his expression became more and more dull.When he got off work in the evening, he came home in a daze and fell headlong on the bed, feeling so tired, so tired that even breathing became a very laborious act.Perhaps, I need to get some sleep, maybe when I wake up.It was the guard's last thought before falling into darkness, when a dark cloud obscured a silver moon, and the slight evening breeze swayed the window gently.A hooded figure walked slowly to the window, looking through the window at the corpse lying on the bed, the corners of his mouth stiffly hooked.A hoarse voice came from under the hood.I saw that the guard on the bed, who was no longer breathing, suddenly sat up, his eyes glowing with a faint blue light.Owen's Diary: That pervert is finally gone, and he took the eccentric priest with him.Roland said that the church leadership already knew about this, so let me leave it alone, hey, do you really think I am willing to take care of those idle things?
I've had a very comfortable life lately, and I feel like I'm a little depraved compared to the days I used to struggle in church.I've always thought of myself as a very ambitious, powerful person, but I didn't expect that after being with Julian, I could become so laid-back?
It's a pity that I'm still me, I'm Owen · Garcia, the man who had seen the darkness at the bottom of society and vowed never to fall to that point again.I can't indulge in the comfort of the moment, if my strength is out of melee, sooner or later I will be replaced by someone else, in order to protect Julian, I have to work harder, maybe I will also contact Roland to apply for this year's training mission, strive to complete it as soon as possible, and come back to accompany Julian.※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※ crisis is coming, and Julian is struggling to survive againJulian: I think there's something wrong with your title!
Why did I have to struggle to survive after the crossing?
Can't you just give me a giant golden finger and make everyone call me Daddy?
Author-kun (finger to finger): But in that case, Owen won't be able to force you, although the three views are not correct, but I think everyone seems to like this kind of favorite plot.Julian: Pawn!
The unscrupulous hooded man walked into the room and frowned in disgust when he saw the dirty surroundings.Take everything you know about Anthony · Cronin's news is all out.The guard's pupils burning with dark blue flames were in a trance, and he asked sluggishly: Anthony · Who is Cronin?
Hooded Man: ???
He lost his mind for a moment, and then came back to his senses: it was the guard who came from the royal capital who thought for a while before realizing who this man really was, and told him everything he knew.He told a lot of things, including a lot of the man's romances, and obviously peachy news like this is very popular among these bachelors, but the authenticity is hard to say.The hooded man's brow furrowed more and more, he wasn't here to hear such inconsequential news.He raised his hand to interrupt the guard's narration: to get the point, before he had an accident, he had contact with those people at the end, do you know?
The guard's eyes widened and he nodded: he had invited Baron Julian to his mansion before his accident.Tell me about Baron Julian.The hooded man moved and said.When it comes to Julian, there is obviously a lot more talk about the guards, the new farming tools he invented, the territory is full of goblins, the newly opened restaurant is particularly delicious, and so on.The hooded man listened for a while, and felt that although this Julian was a bit maverick, there was nothing worth noting, Anthony had a lot of things on him that he left for self-defense, not to mention a small knight, even if the big knight encountered, unless the attribute restraint was very obvious, even if he couldn't beat it, he could still escape.But this time, after he heard the news, he rushed immediately, according to the means he had left, he found the place where Anthony fell, which was full of bright energy, and Anthony's soul had been completely purified, and there was not even a trace left, if not, why would he venture into the city to find out the news.That Julian was unremarkable, and I don't think it had anything to do with Anthony's death.Thinking like this, the hooded man planned to let the guard talk about the situation of the others, but he didn't expect the guard to suddenly say again: By the way, His Excellency Baron Julian and His Excellency Garcia, the Grand Knight of the Holy Light Church, are close friends, and the two of them have a very close relationship.Wait, you said he had a good relationship with the Grand Knight of the Church of Light?
The hooded man immediately grasped the point.Yes.The guards had nothing to hide.The hooded man suddenly remembered a certain habit of his apprentice, and his face darkened: How does that Julian look?
Very handsome, many aristocratic ladies want to have a spring breeze with him, but unfortunately he is a relatively clean person, I heard rumors that his story of women not being guarded is not mixed with any emotion, but just repeating what he has heard one by one.The hooded man didn't care if Julian liked to mess with the relationship between men and women, what he cared about was whether Anthony was discovered by the Holy Light Church just because he wanted to hit Julian's attention?
As long as the thought of such a possibility, the hooded man felt very annoyed, he had already said Anthony, let him try to restrain his desires, even if he really couldn't help it, just find some poor people, don't stretch out your hand to the nobles, those nobles are inextricably linked with each other, before you don't have overwhelming strength, try not to attract the attention of the Holy Light Church.But it can be said that Anthony is his own apprentice in the end, in addition to being annoyed by him, the hooded man is naturally more resentful of Julian, since Anthony likes your face, you are destined to be made a puppet by him, why should you attract people from the Holy Light Church, so that your beloved apprentice fell here.Anthony is an apprentice that the Hooded Man has managed to find, and necromancers are a presence that everyone shouts about in most places, and it is very difficult to find an heir with talent.It just so happens that since you refused to die at the beginning and attracted the people of the Holy Light Church, now I can't find trouble with the Holy Light Church for the time being, so I will use you to mourn my apprentice, he likes your face, so you can go down and accompany him!
The hooded man searched for a few more people, and the news he heard was almost the same, and almost none of them involved Julian, and if it weren't for the fact that this guard happened to be nearby when Anthony invited Julian, he might not have noticed the presence of this person.But it doesn't matter now, he can't take revenge on the Holy Light Church, but he can take revenge on the Great Knight Owen, didn't you kill my apprentice?
Then I'll use your close friends for the funeral!
The Hooded Man stayed in the city for a few days before leaving quietly, determined to take revenge by turning the entire Grey Tower Territory into a dead realm.On the day the hooded man left, Julian also took care of the affairs of Munch City, and returned to the Grey Tower Collar that night.Due to the departure of the celebrant, only Owen was left in charge of Monk City, and in order to prevent accidents, he could not leave with Julian.Owen sent Julian to the gates of the city, and his deep gray eyes watched him leave fixedly, and Kay was confused: Won't Julian come back in a few days?
Why did the regiment commander make it seem like life and death?
As an honest child, he asked the question without understanding, and Evans on the side couldn't stop it, so he silently turned his face away: I tried my best, and really Owen glanced at him coldly: Kayi, I'll go to the training ground to practice with me later.Kay was stunned for a moment, and then said eagerly: Okay, okay, I haven't had a chance to fight with you since the last breakthrough, just try to see how long I can last!
Owen: As they left, Evans overheard two guards chatting about a guard who had died of a sudden illness, who was said to have been dead for three days, and his body showed no signs of decomposing, which was terrifying.Evans listened only for one ear, and did not pay much attention until he passed by the prayer room in the evening, and happened to meet a panicked priest who reported to him that the mothers who had come here to pray that their children had all died violently on the same day, and that the corpses were strangely indecomposed.He hurriedly reported the information to Owen, and Owen's face changed greatly after hearing this, and he immediately dispatched several people to act separately from him, but examined the corpses.Due to the rarity of necromancers, they have not seen them with their own eyes, but their own light energy is the mortal enemy of the undead, and once encountered, they will show signs.Owen chooses to investigate the guard who died a few days ago, he has been dead for days, and as a widow and childless bachelor, his fellow guards take care of his afterlife.There was no custom of worship in the mourning hall here, and the guard's body had not been touched since it was found, and his friends had gone to scrape together money to buy a coffin, leaving only a young man to guard the body.I don't know if it was the strange appearance of the corpse that frightened him, so he didn't stay in the house, but stood guard at the gate, waiting for his companions to return.When Owen arrived, the young man was looking through the wall into the house.Mistaking him for a thief, Kay kicked him off the wall.Who are you!
The young man hurriedly explained that he was the one who guarded the corpse, but Kayi didn't believe it: You said you were the one guarding the corpse?
Then why are you not guarding inside and staying outside?
Even if you stay outside, what does it mean to climb the wall and peek inside?
Don't you want to see if anyone inside is good enough to go in and steal something!
No, no, I'm really not a thief, I just feel a little scary, so I don't dare to stay inside, so I came out.The young man hurriedly explained.After the young man opened his mouth to explain, Owen basically confirmed that this person should not be a thief, after all, there is no need for a thief to tell such a lie that can be pierced and exposed, so there is a high probability that this guy is really a gatekeeper.Tell me, what are you afraid of?
Isn't it just a corpse?
Haven't you seen a corpse?
Owen glanced at Kay, whose tall figure stood in front of the young man and asked sharply.A hint of horror flashed in the young man's eyes: I saw the corpse moving.What?
You repeat!
Kay's expression suddenly became serious, and the corpse would move, which was obviously a characteristic of necromancy.The young man nodded busily: Really, don't believe it, I really saw the corpse moving.If it weren't for that, I wouldn't have run out scared.Owen's eyes were cold: Evans, you look at him, Kay and I go in and have a look.Good regimental commander.The two pushed open the wooden door of the small courtyard, and the body of the guard was moved out of the room and placed in the center of the small courtyard.The corpse's eyes were wide open, looking at the sky hollowly, Owen saw this scene when he walked in, and then found that after he came in, the holy light energy in his body and the undead aura in the corpse had a great conflict, and before he could react, he saw the corpse unexpectedly curl the corners of his mouth, revealing a distorted smile.Not good!
Owen reacted quickly, grabbing Kay by the collar and dragging him back sharply.The corpses of the guards exploded with a thud, scattering flesh and blood that blew down the surrounding courtyard walls.Corpse Explosion!
Necromancer's most disgusting spell, there is no one!
Owen dodged this attack with a blue face, fortunately, most of the people living around him were bachelors, and they were all working outside at this time, otherwise this explosion would not only damage the house, but even if the people in the house were not killed, they might be crushed to death by the house, and if they were not crushed, they would be eroded by the undead breath contained in these flesh and blood, and they would be seriously ill.
