Chapter 407 Uninvited Guest
"Hahaha...Brother Sarayan, we haven't seen each other for a long time since we left Zhanzheng College, except for the letters we exchanged."
The travel-stained Carlos and others walked quickly from the direction of Stallman Town to Sarajan and Thorne, and greeted them first.
The other people in Waterfall Town also found the familiar figure in Twilight Town and began chatting happily.
The savage Gehao hugged Curse Swordsman Yas's body and spun around in excitement, like two children playing around.
Carlos, who seemed gentle and gentle in appearance, rolled up his sleeves and waved his fist to give Sarayan a hard hit on the chest. Then he shook his thick brown hair away from his smiling face, and teased with a smile:
"I didn't expect it, my demeanor is better than before, but you are different, look at your dark skin, did you just climb out of the coal mine of the kobolds, or accidentally fell into the quagmire of the bottomless swamp inside."
"Carlos, you are depraved. The life of your wife and children has made you completely obsessed with it and you don't know how to make progress." Sarayang, who was staggering backwards, rubbed his chest with grinning teeth and gave Carlos a playful look. Seriously said:
"To be honest, the punch you swung just now is not as good as a woman's. No wonder your skin can be maintained so well. I'm afraid it's because the money for skin maintenance is more expensive than magic potions."
"Don't forget, it was my pussy-like little fists that saved you from the small town in Watchtower Valley with one fist." Carlos smiled slightly and walked to Sarayan In front of him, he lowered his voice and muttered:
"Because the girl you got pregnant with has five big brothers like you, and they threatened to castrate you, then covered you with kuo-toa oil and sawdust, and threw you on the square of Zhanzheng College For all students to exhibit."
"Damn it! How many times have I explained to you why you brought this up again, I was really forced, I was a victim, I don't like girls who never take a bath, and that day At night, she smelled of sage all over her body, and I almost suffocated to death. Carlos, why don't you turn on which pot and carry which pot, it's too much."
Sarayan's complexion changed, and he glanced at Thorne who was calm, and found that the other party didn't seem to hear Carlos' whisper, so he was secretly relieved, and then stretched out his hand to pull his friend to his side, and threatened through gnashing of teeth:
"Let me tell you, my memory is very good. If you hurt me like this again, be careful. I went to Fallshang Town and read the half-written love letter you wrote to Aleena to your son and wife on the spot. Believe me, your dearest wife and children will surely drop their jaws at the literary talent of their husband and father.”
"Brother Thorne, did you see that this guy looks serious on the outside, but he is actually a coward. When I was studying at Zhanzheng College, I threw the note into the trash can, and he has to pick it up again." Secretly write down all the content..." Carlos looked at his friend who was gnashing his teeth dumbfoundedly, then turned around and came to Thorne to complain.
"It is said that sage has a mysterious power. With the help of sage, unmarried girls can predict the appearance of their future husbands. Therefore, sage always gives people a sense of mystery. Lord Sarayan thinks you It's good luck, you go on, I didn't hear anything just now."
Thorne walked up to Sarayan, patted him on the shoulder with a smile, nodded with Carlos, and was about to turn around and leave.
"Aren't you going to get involved together?" Seeing that Thorne was about to leave, Carlos put away his hippie smile and said to him seriously.
"It's up to you, you know, I don't like to look at those troublesome rules and regulations." Thorne shook his head slightly, rejecting Carlos' invitation.
"Anyway, I still want to thank you for being able to successfully unite the five towns together. You are indeed a qualified ranger. I wish you a perfect advancement to the hero level as soon as possible." Carlos looked at him solemnly. Looking at Thorne, poured out his heart to him.Praise and bless it.
"A qualified ranger?" Thorne glanced at the progress of 'Ranger's Heart', smiled perfunctorily, and said, "I accept your blessing."
After speaking, Thorne turned and left.
He did not participate in the two's discussions on the detailed planning of the Five-Towns Alliance, because this kind of thing was something that their five lords should worry about.
"Your Excellency Thorne." The demon monk Ishak from Stolman Town saw Thorne's figure and immediately stepped forward. The demon behind him tightened his wings, clasped his hands, and bowed slightly to salute.
The paladin Jessica who came with him also looked at Thorn and nodded.
"After a while, the people in Fallstown and Twilight Town will work out a treaty for the Five-Towns Alliance. If there is anything wrong, they will bring it up on the spot for improvement.
Remember, this is a magic contract, and it is difficult to change it once it is confirmed. This is related to the future development of your Stallman Town, so be sure to check it carefully. Thorne pondered for a moment, and seriously reminded the two of them in a solemn tone.
"I see, thank you for reminding me." Paladin Jessica looked at Thorn and bowed slightly, thanking him.
"Don't be so polite, this is what I should do. I hope you will not disappoint the high hopes of the Night Lord. Anyway, this is the tiefling territory she established, and I don't want to just watch it go down." Thorne waved his hand indifferently.
When he learned from Ishak that the night lord magician Anakeys had gone to Baator Hell, he felt mixed feelings and didn't know what to say.
Because this is almost a point of no return for a sorcerer who often suffers backlash from his master.
After all, she went to Bator Hell, the purpose of which was to trace the root of her own bloodline and find her own legendary path of destiny, which meant that she could not avoid dealing with cunning devils.
Thorne chatted with the two of them for a while and then left.
Work in a while.
Two huge figures in Bugle Town appeared in his sight from far to near.
"Didn't your lord Malvisa come with you?" Thorn took two steps back and looked up at the war troll Kohando and the tiger ranger Seru.
There is no way, these two dear friends are too tall, it seems extremely uncoordinated to stand with them, and it is very uncomfortable to speak.
"Since Lord Malvisa went to your wizard's tower last time, he has stayed there and never came back. The affairs of the town are now handled by the two of us and Mr. Sarn." Sailu the tiger said to Thorne explained:
"The ogres, trolls, and kobolds in Bugle Town are all very restless groups. Especially during the mating season, they are very energetic and fights happen every day. Eugene is extremely unreliable and easy to cause trouble. So Mr. Sarn stayed in the town to guard."
"That's right, it's a headache. Do you know how embarrassing it is for me to be surrounded by a large group of goblins like a kindergarten teacher every day? Do you know how funny it is that I look like I'm covered in little goblins all over my body?"
The war troll Kohando came to Thorne with a sad face, and sat down on the grass with no image, while grabbing the weeds on the ground, as if those weeds were naughty little goblins, and complained endlessly:
"I'm a war troll, and now I've fallen to the point where I've become a goblin's babysitter and teacher. Alas, I'm really having a hard time. This lord has become a shopkeeper now, and he doesn't care about the town."
"Uh... Your Lord Malvisa is busy with an extremely important matter right now, so he can't get away for the time being. It will be fine after a while. I'm really sorry." Thorne looked down apologetically. The troll glanced at him, not knowing how to comfort the aggrieved troll.
"It's not that Mr. Sarn's orc shaman is taking care of it for you, so there is nothing to complain about." Sairu, the serious tiger man, looked at the war troll and said in a displeased tone.
"I'm getting in your way by talking too fast? Can't I just complain? After finally going out to relax, can I complain to Brother Thorne about my grievances? You live by the sea, and you big cat takes care of it every day. Kuan, no wonder little Eugene sees you hiding away, laughing and talking all day long, so he is not afraid of getting sick."
Seeing the tiger man's displeased expression, the troll sitting on the ground threw away the weeds in his hands, and suddenly became unhappy, and began to chatter endlessly:
"I haven't settled with you yet, but you complained about me first. A few days ago, you were crying and howling for nothing at night, scaring a group of wolves to run wildly in the town, causing me to toss It was quiet in the middle of the night, and five of the female wolf's children were scared away by you. Tabby cat, do you know how difficult it is for me to breed these excellent breeds of wolf? You..."
"Stop, big troll brother, how many times have I told you that I just advanced to become the king of beasts, and I am not used to it. When I was sleeping, I accidentally sneezed and couldn't control my momentum. You are not done yet. Is it gone, you are a repeater, look at your current appearance, you are like a boudoir, do you know that?"
The casual tiger man quickly interrupted the troll's words, rubbed the 'king' tattoo on his forehead, looked at him with a bit of a headache, and said helplessly.
"Okay, I'm calling you two over there to discuss things." Thorn reached out and patted the war troll on the shoulder, stopping his counterattack, and pointed to the crowd gathered not far from the two of them.
Seeing the two of them humming angrily like a little daughter-in-law who has been wronged so much, and the other standing up straight with a cold face and staring at a pair of tiger eyes, and then leaving together, Thorne shook his head and laughed.
Just as he was about to find a place to sit down, a familiar figure suddenly appeared in sight, causing his footsteps to stop involuntarily.
"You...you came here anyway." Thorne looked at the half-elf girl Lilia who had already walked beside him, very surprised.
As a ranger and priest of the Melikai Temple, Lilia was wearing a forest-colored shirt, a black cloak like herself, a dark green tunic and leggings, and a longbow hanging lightly on her shoulders. A long sword with a scabbard handle hangs at the waist, and a unicorn holy emblem made of animal horn is worn on the heart.
At this moment, she looked at herself with a sweet smile, her long black hair swaying gently in the breeze, glowing green in the sun, her bright eyes shone with a light blue brilliance, as if reflecting the memories of the past.
Seeing this long-lost sweet smile, his mood suddenly became more comfortable, and a certain boulder that was pressing deep in his heart also disappeared without knowing it, which made his heavy heart a lot easier, and even his breathing seemed to be smooth a lot.
Thorn reached out and stroked the strands of hair on Lilia's forehead that were slightly playful with her expression at this time, and gently brushed them behind her slightly pointed ears, and an unconcealable smile flowed out on her face. .
Even his countless bloody storms in the past two years could not erase the slightest bit of this smile full of life's brilliance.
Even Thorne himself didn't know how long he hadn't seen this kind of smile from the heart.
Because of this smile, he understood that in this world, apart from the happiness from the heart and the smile on his face, there is nothing worth showing off.
He knew that the former half-elf girl had suddenly returned, and the only thing he regretted was that he was not the one who changed her.
However, as long as you come back, you still care about so many things.
"I'm the leader of the upper city right now. Naturally, I have to come and take a look at such an important occasion." Lilia leaned close to Thorn, wrapped her arms around one of his arms, and turned her pale blue eyes Watching his face quietly, then smiled softly and said softly:
"Didn't you tell me that the world out there is wide, full of pain and joy, the former making people grow and the latter making the journey unbearable.
After walking out, I found that the outside world is really like what you said, there are many things that cannot be seen in the forest, there are many sounds more cheerful than the morning birdsong, and many smells are more beautiful than the fragrance of flowers.
So I figured it out, I'm going to live in the sun and the stars, in the sun and the rain, dancing every step of the way, through the flowering gardens, through the deep snow, this growth is not about making yourself complicated , but to live more like myself. "
"That's good." Thorn was silent for a moment, and met the eyes of the half-elf girl staring at him. These were a pair of light blue eyes with moon elf blood. They were as clear and bright as a pool of clear water, which made him feel pity.
Seeing these eyes and the sweet smile on his pretty face, Thorn suddenly felt an urge to embrace the girl beside him.
However, in the end, he remained rational and forcibly endured it, gently pulled out the arms that were encircled, and stretched out his hands to caress the girl's loose black hair with a smile.
At the same time, he secretly thanked the little black dragon girl Sigrit who hadn't shown up yet. He knew that Lilia's ability to change so much was definitely influenced by her.
"Hey! Isn't this Lilia? Long time no see, she's still so radiant."
At this time, Horat's voice came from behind Thorne. He was adding fine shredded tobacco to the pipe, while looking at the half-elf girl with interest, and greeted with a smile: "Lilia, Do you still recognize me?"
"Of course I remember, but there are many flowers in the upper city that are occupied by weeds, but people can't remember where they once bloomed." Lilia was stunned when she saw Horat approaching, and then said in a slightly cold tone Said lightly.
"Tsk tsk tsk... the little girl's mouth has become poisonous." Horat smiled indifferently, first took a deep look at Thorne, and then sighed to Lilia: "It's a pity, it is said that since ancient times It's true that Qingmei has many losers."
After finishing speaking, he walked towards the Emerald River while puffing out the clouds and mist.
"What does Horat mean by 'since ancient times, there are many defeated dogs'?" The half-elf girl looked at Thorn and asked curiously.
"...It means that he lives like a dog himself, so don't pay attention to him." Thorne pointed to the lonely back of the mean-mouthed Horat, and explained perfunctorily.
"Don't tell me, it really looks alike." The half-elf girl smiled, as if she thought the metaphor was very appropriate.
Then the two walked towards the crowd gathered not far away.
"Now we have already overcome the vanity and pride deep in our hearts. We are used to harvesting crops with weapons, and our respective territories will be surrounded by thick walls. Caravan carriages look like regular troops marching. Watchtowers The scouts on the road will not stop all night.
Why is this happening?
That's because Gnolls, Ogres, Hobgoblins, Lizardmen and even Kobolds and Goblins rule this land. If we want to gain a stable foothold, we must drive out all enemies that threaten the territory.
Only in this way can we jointly build a civilization and a country that is our own.
Without a qualified night, there is no so-called true dawn.
Today, under the witness of the dead sun god Amaunata, the five small towns located in the wilderness will unite together to resist all enemies who trample on this land. "
The moment Sarajan's inspiring speech stopped, there was warm applause from the crowd.
"That's a good point! If that's the case, the alliance of lords formed by Emerald Fields will be counted among us." Before anyone arrived, the voice came first.
Immediately afterwards, a dark blue magic circle appeared on the flat grass, and more than a dozen figures appeared in everyone's line of sight.
