Chapter 235 Final Task

In the pure northern decoration style of the city owner's mansion, six young maids in white striped clothes walked into the conference room. The interior of this huge conference room is not as gorgeous as in the conference room of the imperial capital. There are only simple lighting, but it also looks bright and solemn.

A burly middle-aged man in the clothes of the city owner greeted him with a big smile and said, "Hahaha, the top students of the college came to this house. It's really glorious, but I was busy with some things just now and missed the distance. No wonder."

Lance smiled secretly: The sound of fighting outside before, and the magic fluctuation was so strong that the master in the mansion should have been aware of it for a long time. Besides, before his party entered the city, he had signed up for the guard guard of the city, and the city owner should have received the news as soon as possible. Presumably, the Magician Guild will definitely follow such a procedure. However, the city owner said that he was busy with things. It was clear that he was afraid of coming out just now and getting involved in the dispute. He was not a human inside, an old and cunning one...

However, if he can achieve the position of city lord, it would be unreasonable to be a young man without any scheming, so although Lance does not like such a person, he will not say anything more. It's just that what made him strange was that he didn't speak, but no one else spoke. Zane, as the captain, stood stupidly and forgot to reply, which made the smiling city owner embarrassed.

"You're welcome, Lord." Lance quickly made a sound to round up the game. Then he quietly touched Zane with his arm and reminded him. I can't figure out why Zane, who is usually clever, is so dull at this time.

"Haha, come on! Hurry up and sit down! You must have worked hard all the way!" The city owner immediately reached out and invited six young students to take their seats. Tell the kitchen to prepare tea and snacks as soon as possible and bring them up as quickly as possible.

After everyone sat down one after another, snacks and tea have been served. I have to say that these people are still very efficient. The middle-aged city owner smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work. We talked while eating, filling our stomachs without making mistakes."

All the students thanked them.

"Well, I won't say more nonsense, because there are indeed a lot of things that have happened recently. At the beginning, we reported the news to the imperial capital that it was suspected that there were thieves here, but they did not catch their whereabouts, but we found some dark monsters. Previously, there were no dark monsters living in the bloody wilderness, so they always like to sneak up on nearby villages and go out at night. The dark beasts of pedestrians in the town's caravans are likely to be artificially driven. And something else has happened recently, so I want to ask first how much you know about the situation in the north.

Cold... No one replied... Although the city owner asked you, in fact, everyone knows that the person who answered the conversation should be the leader of the team to give an overall report, otherwise the students will definitely be confused. So everyone waited for Zane's answer, but found that Zane seemed to be stunned and seemed to be waiting for someone else's answer. He sat stupidly and did not speak. The smiling face of the city owner couldn't help twitching with embarrassment.

"Ah, captain, speak up." Lance whispered helplessly and touched Zane again.

"Huh?" Zane came to his senses and looked at Lance and asked carefully, "Let me... do it?"

Seeing his expression, Lance was stunned, and then quickly understood that Zane had been very strong and domineering before, hoping to crush Lance, an excellent team member, to death. Now he found that the strength of the two was far from each other, and immediately planned to abdicate obediently and obey Lance's arrangement, but not His face was full of loss. After Lance woke up, he did not show his high-level strength at the first time, but he was unwilling to put too much pressure on Zane so that he would not be decisive enough when giving orders and making decisions. If it hadn't been for the young mage of the Wizards Guild coming to provoke today, maybe he would have kept hiding.

Zane's essence is not bad, but some of them pay too much attention to fame and fortune. Lance doesn't want to take his position as captain and is not interested. So he looked at Zane and said seriously, "Well, of course it's you."

Looking at his expression and the sincere and fake words, Zane was stunned and moved inexplicably, and then nod his head vigorously. When he turned to face the city owner again, his face had returned to normal...

"Lord, I'm sorry, I made a small difference just now. Let me state what we know for you." Zane sorted out his clues and then said, "In the task issued by the college, we learned that there are traces of members of the dark parliament around several towns in the bloody wilderness in the northern region, and we don't know what means were used to release dark monsters, but the level does not seem to be high. . However, after the investigation of the masters in the northern region, they found that the members of the dark parliament had disappeared, leaving only the warcraft still lurking in the nearby forest. This time, our task is to clean up the Warcraft and investigate the situation. It's just that you said that there is a new situation nearby. I don't know what it is?

After listening, the city owner nodded and said, "It seems that you have not walked in the town all the way. The latest news is that the infiltration of members of the Dark Parliament has been determined. In Bor City, two high-level dark members openly took action in the city, killing many warriors and almost even the owner of Bor City. It seems that their purpose is to hunt down people with bright constitution, but in the end they were repulsed by the magicians' guild and the strong men of the temple branch in time.

"What? There is such a situation! The people of the dark parliament are getting bolder and bolder. Zane frowned and said, "So what's the final result?"

"It seems that they still let them escape. Although the two strong men stationed in the north of the Imperial Magicians Guild have tried their best to stop them, and there are strong men from the temple to help them, it seems that the strength of the two dark members is also good. They have escaped with some secret methods that hurt their bodies and disappeared. According to the news from there, the two have been hurt a lot, and they should not come out to do evil again in a short time. The middle-aged city owner said with some worry.

"Well...so it is..." Zane said in a low voice. Then he suddenly remembered something, looked up at the other party and asked, "Does the lord of the city know that one of the magicians who just quarreled with us outside has a rare bright constitution?"

"What?" The middle-aged city owner was shocked and said with a bad face, "I really don't know this!" After saying that, I was suddenly stunned, and then I found that I had spilled the beans in a hurry. Just now, I was using other excuses to explain why the college party arrived but did not welcome each other for a long time. In this way, it suddenly appeared, so the already bad face was even worse. No wonder he will be like this. Bor City is not too far away from here, and the overall strength of the city is not inferior to that of Medell City, but most of the people who guarded the owner of Bor City were killed or injured, making the city owner who had not been threatened by life and death for many years have a bad time.

Zane did not mean to continue to embarrass him, but just said, "Since the young mage is a person with a bright constitution, the magician's guild must have made a more proper placement, and the city lord doesn't have to worry too much. It's better to make more plans when you hand over the task.

"Well... I understand." The middle-aged city owner nodded. So this time, I would like to ask you to clean up the dark monsters and find out if there are any dark members around the town.

......

......

The earth has fallen into a deep sleep, and the dark night has added some horror to this blood-red soil... The cold in winter seems to block the starlight in the sky. The dark night seemed to be covered with boundless thick ink in the sky...

In the deepest part of the bloody wilderness, two ink-like figures are marching like ghosts, and their bodies seem to have completely merged with the strange and horrible night here, as if they are the darlings of the night. However, one of them was down-to-earth, flying fast, and did not make any unnecessary sound; the other person's movements were even lighter, so light that the whole person was not walking, but floating. Only the ghost-patterned robe dancing lightly in the wind proves that this person is moving forward...

"Chatter... It seems that we are about to reach the destination, but unfortunately, no one will come to kill us further." The shadow half floating in the air said with a smile.

"Hey hey hey, what you said is that it is difficult for us to meet the whole team of temple knights who came to die like before. I like the feeling of blood and internal organs splashing in front of me, especially the blood of those 'dogs' in the Temple of Light." Another tall warrior in black recalled with an intoxicated face.

"Don't worry, when the plan we implemented is successful this time, we will ensure that this place will become a killing hell, hahahahahaha..." The ghost-robed figure chled.

"Well...but...it's been three days. Why haven't the two adults come to meet us?" The warrior in black suddenly remembered something, put away the bloodthirsty expression on his face, and whispered strangely.

"Maybe something has been delayed. With the strength of the two adults, it is difficult for me to imagine what people in the northern region can threaten them, so don't worry. The ghost robe mage said, "Be addition, with the top strength of the two adults, if they can't cope with it, there is nothing we can do about the high-level limit, so don't think too much. Prepare to go to the castle. According to the signs on the map, it should not be far away."

"Okay, then we---huh? Be careful! A master is coming!" Before he finished his words, he suddenly alerted and pulled out a short blade that could drip out ink with him and entered the defensive posture, and the blue light that was faintly deep to the extreme was faint on his body.

Normally, the magician's perception is much more powerful than that of warriors, and the range is much wider, but mages need to set magic boundaries or turn on magic perception spells to have this effect. But whether it is magic or magic boundary, it is very magical, so the dark mage did not do so when he was on his way. Hearing his companion's warning, he was first shocked, and then did not hesitate to hold his right hand, and a beautiful black staff appeared in his hand out of thin air...

"Don't be so nervous, two timid things." A faint, majestic voice came from the darkness, and then a figure could be seen abruptly appearing not far in front of them. If I were the enemy, you would be dead by now.

Two dark members whose strength had reached a high limit breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the other's words, relieved their combat state, bowed respectfully to the front and said, "I've seen Lord Mondray!"

The figure in front of him answered, but he didn't want to stand still and wait for them to bow respectfully, but walked straight over. At this time, the two dark members found the problem and asked strangely, "Your Excellency, only you come alone?"
