"Hey, have you heard? The Imperial Capital has defeated the Clay tribe and now it has basically unified the north." A mercenary sat in the Crooked Crane Bar in the small town of Dolop, pretending to be mysterious and talking to his companions We started chatting,
"Hey, who doesn't know this? The Royal Knights of the Imperial Capital swept across the prairie, and the 500,000 Clay army was directly defeated. This is really amazing." Another mercenary said,
"I told you that this piece of information has been told over and over again a month ago, but none of you know what happened in Cassano, on the eve of the Battle of Mirror Lake." A servant with a big beard Bing gently tapped the wine glass in his hand and said loudly,
"Hey, Foster, you seem to have been in Cassano a month ago. Tell me, what happened." Everyone was immediately attracted by this bearded mercenary, and a large group of people gathered around him. people,
"Well..." The bearded man knocked on his empty wine glass again.
"This cup is a gift from me." The bar owner squeezed through the onlookers and placed a large glass of ale in front of the bearded man: "Quickly tell me, I may be very curious. I heard that the three major killer organizations came together that night. , I don’t know what’s going on.”
"Haha, you are indeed well-informed." The bearded man suddenly showed joy when he saw the ale. He first complimented the bar owner who gave him the wine, and then continued: "If I weren't in Cassano, I would I can’t believe that the three most powerful and terrifying killer organizations in the mainland, Soul Eater, Blood Soul and Shadow, have all come out, plus the sword master Oswald of Moon Moon City, and the former Her Majesty the Queen, who is said to have reached the legendary level. Catherine, oh my God, this lineup is amazing.”
"Wow, isn't that Iron Fist Castle turned into a pile of ruins?"
"Yes, yes, there are so many strong men, even killing God directly is enough."
"Wrong." Big Beard saw everyone talking and was very satisfied with the effect he had created. He shouted and asked everyone to stop talking, and then he said slowly: "On the contrary, the three major killer organizations were almost completely wiped out. I heard Only a few of the most powerful masters escaped, and apart from them, only the former Queen Catherine and the Sword Master of Moon Moon City were able to escape unscathed."
"Ah, a little Cassano is actually so powerful."
"Isn't it said that the former queen has reached the legendary level? Could it be that Victor, the great mage of the imperial capital, took action himself."
"Also, I heard that Lord Ryan of Cassano went to the prairie with the Imperial Expeditionary Force. How come he still has such a powerful force? No wonder the Imperial City will also form an alliance with Cassano."
“…”
“…”
“…”
The whole bar became chaotic. A man sitting alone in the corner tightened his cloak and slowly left the bar. It was already midnight, but the weather was still sultry. Even if others were wearing only a single piece of clothing, they would He was sweating profusely, but this man wrapped his body tightly under a thick cloak.
The man walked out of the bar. He first looked around, and after identifying the direction, he quickly walked out of the town. Although some people were surprised by the man's behavior, they were just surprised. After all, this is the imperial capital and the free paradise. At the junction of , both sides ignored the situation here and almost used it as some kind of buffer zone. Therefore, people here rarely interfered with other people's behavior, because if they were not careful, they might see secrets that they should not know, and then He disappeared inexplicably,
The man walked faster and faster, and soon he was far away from the town, disappearing into the vast night outside. After walking for more than 30 minutes, the man came to his destination, the cemetery to the west of the town. It is precisely because of this The public security is extremely chaotic, so there are quite a few people who die unexpectedly. Their corpses are usually dumped on this desolate hill. At most, they can just dig a shallow hole and bury them. Anyway, wolves will kill them at night. Why bother with digging it out
At this time, among the mass graves on the hill, there were two stiff-bodied people desperately digging for corpses. Next to them, another man stood with his hands tied. The pale starlight shone on his face, which was barely disturbing. Bailey's face was recognized, but most of it had begun to rot and emitted a disgusting smell.
"Bai Lei, maybe our previous plan should be cancelled." The man from before walked up to Bai Lei, sat casually on a collapsed tombstone, and said in a sullen voice. He lifted his cloak a few times. , revealing his face under the pale starlight, it was Maiya who had escaped from the imperial capital.
"Hmph, you indecisive guy." Bailey cursed in a low voice, and the two stiff guys beside him dragged out a corpse from the ground. Bailey immediately walked over and took a closer look. , after discovering that this body had been buried in recent days, and most of the body was still quite intact, he smiled with satisfaction, and the smile touched the rotting wounds on his face, making people shudder.
"Move over there." Bailey gave the order to the two stiff-bodied guys. Bailey was dissatisfied with the zombies in front of him who had been forcibly resurrected with evil magic, but now he was dissatisfied. I didn't dare to summon undead slaves on a large scale, so I had to make do with them.
"How many have you found?" Susan in Maiya suddenly asked,
"Three bodies, the materials are almost enough. It will take me a few more hours to replace the rotten parts of my body, so that we can move on." Bailey replied in a very casual tone: "Anyway, this It’s been boring for a while, let’s talk about what news you two have heard.”
"Okay." Maiya followed Bailey and came to the place where he hid his body. This was a small cave under the hill. Although it was not very deep, there were many trees outside to cover it, so he didn't worry about it. The situation inside is seen by others,
Bailey looked as usual and took out a complete set of equipment from his body. He spent a lot of money to customize it. Of course, the blacksmith who made it was silenced afterwards. As a necromancer, Bailey can freely use other people's equipment. The parts of the corpse transform his own body, and Bailey's body suffered great damage after falling into the cave where the orcs dumped their corpses, so he must often replace the rotten parts of his body with fresh corpses.
Bailey gently touched the rotten parts of his face with his left hand, and then used his right hand to gesture on the body of a man who was only about 20 years old. He seemed to be considering how to choose the material. While he was doing this, Maia would Leaning against the stone wall of the cave, he said in a muffled voice: "Her Majesty Queen Catherine led three major killer organizations to sneak attack Cassano, but they were defeated. It is said that except for a few limited masters, everyone else was wiped out."
