Chapter 46 - Footsteps (4)
After leaving the Lyle house, Loren immediately returned to the church. But instead of returning the same way, I first went to the shantytown in the opposite direction. After a few laps, I reached the church near the path.
Although it is not certain whether there is anyone behind him, he is always prepared. I have been stared at, and may encounter surprise attacks anytime, anywhere. Naturally, the more crowded the place, the more suitable for me to escape, and at the same time, I will get the time to deal with it.
So when he returned to the church, it was already evening. The church is still crowded with people. The few priests and trainees of the Holy Cross Church organized prayers before nightfall and prepared some porridge for the devout believers for dinner.
In fact, most people are not so poor that they ca n’t even drink a bowl of porridge, but they still took it in gratitude-they care more about the solid walls of the church and the divine power of the Holy Cross. Some sense of security.
Seems to be no different from the previous few days, but … Lorren rubbed his right hand constantly, a sense of inexplicable crisis always hovered in his heart, as if something was stabbing himself.
Is an illusion, or are you being too cautious? Slowly putting on the hood, Loren followed the street to the side door of the church, and left here anyway before talking.
“Sir, please pity me, I haven’t eaten for a few days!”
A sloppy little beggar crouched in a corner not far away, although his voice was faint but very familiar. Loren tilted her lips, turned around naturally, and crouched in front of the “beggar”. A dirty hat looked up and smiled proudly.
“I said that right, no one can find me.”
“What did you find out?” Loren seemed to hear the boy’s words, pulled out his pockets, rummaging through the copper plate.
“There are three guys, two strong men and a thin man, who are not locals, but dressed like crops.” The hat lowered his voice and said, “They have been at the church door since morning. Don’t look up! After you come over, those three people have been staring at you! “
“Find a place to hide as soon as possible.” He solemnly placed a copper plate in the empty bowl in front of the boy. Loren whispered as he stood up. “I have to prepare now and wait for the guests to come.”
The hat no longer squeaked, and he watched Loren walking towards the door of the church with the afterglow of his eyes, and then quietly picked up the bowl, and slipped along the wall while no one was paying attention.
“You are back, Lord Loren Turin!”
Lorren had just walked to the door of the church, and the little priest who was still distributing the porridge immediately came forward with surprise. It seemed that there was still some expectation: “Did you find any clues ?!”
“I did find some important information, but …” Loren said while looking around “arbitrarily”. It was obvious that three people were deliberately avoiding their sight.
As described in the hat, two guys who are quite strong, and the other one is too pale, probably because they have not been basking in the sun for a long time-but this is only a first impression and cannot be used as a complete judgment in accordance with.
“But what?”
“I may need to go to Father Anthony’s bedroom again. The last time I seemed to have found clues that could be used as supporting evidence for some intelligence.” Loren deliberately did not lower his voice: “If I am lucky, I will find things tonight the truth.”
“The truth of the matter? You mean …” The little priest suddenly realized the seriousness of the problem: “Understood, I will open the door!”
……………… Cautiously closed the door and then locked, Loren was still clinging to the door and the wall motionless. After confirming that there was no movement outside the door, he entered the room in a hurry.
“Very well, the guests will come to the door at any time, so you have to prepare quickly.” Loren, who was light-spoken, sat casually on the priest’s blood-stained bed and began to pack up his existing equipment.
The first is a brand-new knight’s sword and two daggers, all of which were obtained from the blacksmith shop outside the college. This time Dalton’s unusual “generosity”, full of one hundred silver coins, allowed Loren to Choose at random in the blacksmith shop, and have the remaining money for road expenses.
Followed by the “light sword” cast by myself and Isaac and the small wizard. Loren thought about it for a long time, but still temporarily named it “Bright Silver”-in terms of naming, he really has no talent.
There is also a bottle of sedative for first aid, and three bottles of Ein special “unstable ignition agent”. Considering that he might have pitted the opponent, Loren was also not sure whether this thing could still play a raid effect.
Sure enough, I shouldn’t be complacent …
The last one was the “magic wand” that Dalton Kander gave himself-carefully opened the box, but Loren’s expression was somewhat surprised. It was actually a glove lying quietly in the box, and it seemed to be the left hand.
What kind of wizard is who would make his wand into a glove?
This is a black half-finger glove, which seems to be made of some kind of animal leather. A silver ring is sewn to the opening of each finger sleeve, and the rune on the seal is vaguely visible; the back of the hand is drawn Dark red picture: a circle with triangles.
Although it is unclear what the other side means, these two are the basic graphics of spells and runes. Probably alluding to the identity of the “caster” who uses it?
Remembered that Dalton gave this glove a look of unwillingness. Loren guessed that 80% of this thing was not his. I am afraid it was something like a souvenir or a relic, otherwise it could not explain why he showed that expression.
Put the glove on the left hand, and slowly connect your spiritual palace with it-just a blink of an eye, your body seems to be connected with this glove, the left hand seems to have a pair of gloves naturally !
Although I do n’t understand things like magic wands, Loren also knows that the easier it is to connect, the more it can prove its quality. This one in my hand is definitely not an ordinary commodity!
After a few words of emotion, he immediately took care of all the equipment, and listened carefully to the nearby movements ~ www.mtlnovel.com ~ The surroundings are quiet-after all, this is a village church, even if it is a shantytown The rascals did not dare to come here to make trouble. The majesty of the Holy Cross still shines here even at midnight.
However, considering that Father Anthony died in this room, it seems that the majesty of the Holy Cross is not so effective.
Lorren standing by the door quietly opened a few gaps and looked out through the light in the room. At this time, the moon is not a full moon, and the only crescent is also looming under the cover of clouds and fog. The ancient wooden town enveloped by night is completely immersed in darkness.
But because it was too quiet, Loren could hear someone in the distance touching this way, and it might come along the back wall of the church.
There are three people in the opponent, one of them is most likely a wizard, and there is a certain chance that he is still a spellcaster; as for the other two, from the appearance, they are closer to the role of mercenaries, but they still cannot be underestimated-the real deal of blood People are more efficient than wizards in killing people.
I must find a way to solve one of them first, and then introduce the other into the room. If I am lucky, one or two bottles of ignition agent can kill the other party; in the end, I am afraid that I will be tough, consider myself and the two strong men The gap in physique should be kept as close as possible to the other party, or find opportunities to sneak attack.
“Ok?”
Loren, who was hiding behind the door, was still planning slowly. He heard that someone behind the wall seemed to be talking, as if he was still arguing about something. One of the voices should have been heard by himself-if not wrong, it should be the barn. That gray robe.
“It seems that the plan has changed and it has been replaced by four people.” A pleasant smile appeared on Loren’s face, but it looked somewhat strange.
“Well … I have an idea.”
