Chapter 19: How dare you kill my horse?
Chapter 19 – Dare to Kill My Horse?
“What are you laughing at?” Ciara wondered.
“Nothing, remembering something happy.”
Heine smiled and didn’t explain too much.
“But you have been a little distracted …… since just now is there any concern?”
“I was thinking about the future.”
Ciara froze, seemingly taking the wrong meaning.
She bowed her head as the spoon made a few strokes in the bowl.
“Heine, would you like to return to the tundra with me?”
“Hmm?”
“I’m a Nyss, or a snow elf as the locals often call them. Do you know about the Shadow Sanctuary?”
Heine froze slightly, then nodded.
“I know some, Lady Death Whisperer and the Underworld are not the same thing.”
“Yes. The Lady of the Dead Whisperer believes that life and death are one and the same cycle, so those who believe in her never blindly chase after immortality, and we refuse to imprison the dead in the Underworld or on earth.
“I came here to realize the ideal that my mentor and I shared, we wanted to recruit local necromancers, but now …… it is buried along with the burial ground.”
“I’m sorry ……”
“No, it’s not you who should be sorry.”
Ciara’s eyes were bright, as if there was fire burning in them.
“I believe what you say is true, I know who is secretly stirring this up and I will make them pay, will you join me in accomplishing my revenge?
“The study of blood, bone and flesh in the school of necromancy all comes from the Shadow Sanctuary, and the Shadow, you might make an excellent Shadow Warlock.”
Heine was silent.
To be fair, it was a good offer.
It was a way of avoiding the impending disaster, and at the same time, it was a way of getting better ……
The Heine of four days ago would have agreed.
But now ……
He was not willing.
Ciara wanted to make the people of Eternal Dawn pay, and why shouldn’t he?
He wasn’t a cold-blooded animal.
The Burying Ground wasn’t a good place, but it had been brutally destroyed.
Those nervous cadets weren’t much of a people person, but they were still holding steaming buns in the morning being inhaled in spicy gulps.
By the time evening came, they were dark silhouettes on the floor and walls.
And then there was Principal Garey.
His aspirations were simple and clean, but he died with all his filth.
Heine was furious.
An adult can restrain and self-abate many kinds of anger.
Only not this one.
It is not sharp, not passionate, but it is deep.
Deep to the bone, deep as the sea.
Eternal Dawn would split in the future, he knew it.
But right now he preferred to tear it apart with his own hands.
Ciara looked at him, the hope in her eyes fading a little, and finally sighed.
“Well, you’re still the same, I never seem to convince you.”
“Are you leaving tomorrow?” Heine asked.
Ciara nodded.
She suddenly put down the spoon and took Heine’s hand.
“Can you stay with me tonight?”
There was light in her eyes.
Heine smiled and nodded.
……
Other side.
Chief Sa’s question made all three of them laugh.
The player is really a mourner, who mails with anyone.
But after laughing, Catch the Goat continued, “It is for these reasons that we know how to avoid lightning.”
“But didn’t you guys say don’t act too smart?”
Mr. Xia: “This is a technical job, buddy you know, the two of us have been down for a copy and a half, Sheep got together the Bone and Flesh set, I got the ‘Scorpion Tail Needle’ hand crossbow, and this whole thing is also lightly enchanted magical equipment, you know what I mean, don’t you? ”
“Holy shit, so fat?”
It was only then that Mr. Sa noticed the equipment on Mr. Xia’s body, as well as the brand new armor on Catch the Goat.
“This is the plate armor of the Viscount’s house, right? It’s only been four days and he’s brushed up his reputation enough?”
Teacher Xia: “That must be, just tonight, he was laughing and joking with the Viscount, and was even changing the direction of the plot …… And Heine is very attached to the equipment of the undead, this piece we absolutely can’t lose.”
“What about upgrades?”
“This one is a bit more metaphysical.” Catching Sheep explained, “Just like we still don’t know what Heine’s summoning laws are, this corpse of yours is from the Haunted Manor.”
“Haunted Manor?” Mr. Sa froze, “You’ve all been to that copy? Isn’t that above level 10?”
“That’s not true ……”
Catch the Sheep then told about the afternoon encounter at the hunting ground.
Mr. Sa fell into a long thought after listening, and only after a long while did he deliberate:
“You guys know about the Withered Bow, right? It has a single quest line that requires sneaking into the manor to steal the strain of the third boss. I flipped through a page of ‘psychic transformation notes’ on his bookshelf about transforming necromancers into psychics, could it be related to that?”
Mr. Xia was shocked, “Why haven’t I seen that before? We didn’t even see it when we bulldozed our copies ……”
“Number three burned the bookshelf during the fight.”
“Oh also …… then next time we go to the Haunted Manor try to find a way to steal it for him! Maybe we will be able to summon more brothers, like our so strong fierce man to make 10 can flat push this novice village, right?”
The three of them laughed for a while, and Catch the Goat suddenly asked, “One last question, buddy, be honest, is the Spectral Expeditionary Army’s quota PAY’s or ……”
Mr. Sa smiled proudly, “Of course it’s the Hook West (Arena) that kills in. Let’s put it this way, dude took the Sigh Bow all by himself and didn’t shake anyone, no shame in that, right?”
Both of them were a bit surprised.
Mr. Xia: “Coincidentally, I also took the Dragon Tooth Dagger alone.”
“Then dude isn’t pretending, dude fucked and won the daytime Old Gao in the Scarlet Trial.”
What the three said were all extremely difficult personal lore quest lines in the game.
Players who could complete such quests were considered T0 level powerhouses, not to mention professional high level players.
After a mutual exchange of words, there was another bout of business boasting to each other.
Then remembering the great days of the past, talking vigorously, as if three old friends offline game party blowing up bull, each other’s relationship is also a lot closer, Sa General crossing the discomfort of the experience was also washed away.
Players, itself is because of a common hobby to come together, nothing more than to share the fun of the more people on the head.
The night was spent like this.
Early in the morning, Heine opened her eyes.
A few thin strands of hair remained on the pillow, but the man was gone.
Shiala had always been a woman of action, or she wouldn’t have come alone to practice her ideals in the mountains of Makara.
Since she had already made up her mind, she wouldn’t have the slightest hesitation.
Heine actually woke up early.
He woke up when the other man kissed him on the forehead and said, “Don’t forget me,” before he left.
“Let’s go to the tundra again sometime.”
He sat up and stretched.
……
Heine appeared in the courtyard fully dressed and surveyed the new skeleton.
Last night, although his attention was not on the trio’s chatter, he had taken down quite a bit of information.
Saori was a veteran hunter with an average level of melee combat, but not nothing.
There was no bow in the house, and he temporarily handed the other a sword.
The persona still needs to be dented a bit.
“Attack that tree.”
Chief Sa did as he was told.
Heine stroked his chin, “It doesn’t look too good ……”
“I fucking …… old man is really f*cked up, if you have the ability to give me a bow, I’ll let him know what is called the number one archer of Vault City!”
“Mr. Sa, forget it, forget it, Mr. Sa. Don’t be so general with him, he’s still figuring out your abilities.”
Teacher Xia was at least persuaded.
Heine went through the process and had him try out the sword, shield, dagger, and even the electric shock staff separately.
For every sigh he gave, Mr. Sa had to curse angrily.
Until the scorpion-tailed needle was handed to him.
As if not hopeful, Heine commanded, “See the scar on that tree? Aim it at that – PIORION!!!”
Before he could finish his sentence, Chief Sa held the crossbow in one hand and squeezed his wrist with the other.
Whoosh!
Three short lavender crossbow arrows were compressed into one straight arrow, and successively crashed into the scarab.
“So you’re good at this!”
Heine excitedly patted his skeleton and shoved his hand crossbow at him.
A few minutes later, Sa General, wearing the Viscount’s House standard light chainmail armor, appeared in the carriage.
As the carriage drove, Chief Sa spoke in a complicated tone:
“Alas, buddy just opened the service brush more than half a month of prestige, just for this set of systematic lock armor, the result of prestige brush enough Viscount House no more, after that never put on, this time instead of the dream ……”
“Who is not yet.”
“That’s it, Mr. Xia this red mask, my flesh and bone, everyone has a bright future.”
Sa total: “I now begin to believe what you guys said, this buddy is really shed ah, is this carrier broken point, horse carriage …… he can not pull a carload of bread people shopping around later, right?”
Heine almost laughed out loud.
But what the other party said is also true, he is also a little disgusted with this carrier.
In the future, he might actually summon an army of travelers himself, as these three had suggested.
At that time, what kind of bullish vehicle would be worthy of this load of undead servants?
While he was thinking about the future, a crisp cracking sound hit him!
The Catching Goat in the carriage immediately dug out and protected Heine behind his shield.
However, the arrow wasn’t heading towards him, and shot straight through the poor horse!
Heine was horrified:
“My horse!”
