Chapter 10 Carl, why betray us?

quack……

Suddenly, a crisp crow sound interrupted the two of them looking at each other, Lin En looked back regretfully, and looked in the direction of the sound - a gray crow the size of a palm was standing on the counter Above, staring at himself intently.

[Drunkard] The owner of the tavern is an authentic Guwaite businessman, exuding a shrewd and philistine aura. After hearing the sound of crows, he couldn't help but stop wiping the wine glass, grinning and showing his yellow teeth. Greeted warmly.

"It's really a rare face, welcome to the [drunk man] tavern... What do you need? My guest?"

"A glass of Guro wine needs four years. If I heard correctly, it should be seventeen Sekas copper coins." Lin En went straight to the front of the stage and arranged the copper coins in his hand in five, five and seven equal parts. on the table.

The owner of the tavern looked at Lin En carefully, his eyes stopped on the long sword hanging at his waist, and his expression remained unchanged. "That was last year's standard, now... you have to sell 21 coppers!"

Lin En was stunned for a moment, but before he could answer, the pretty-looking female drinker pursed her lips and said teasingly. "Old Hawk, aren't you fooling the newcomers? Why didn't I know that the price of Guro wine here has suddenly increased."

While talking, the female drinker looked at Lin En with great interest. Although a glass of seventeen coppers of Guro wine is not a luxury, but few people in the [Drunkard] tavern are so generous.

Especially that person is young and handsome, with solid muscles, he shouldn't be the type who looks like something but is useless...

Old Hawk didn't care about the woman's dismantling, and grinned. "Two cargo ships capsized in the harbor this year, and the raw materials of Guro wine are scarce, so it will always be more expensive..."

Lynn frowned and spoke again. "But I only have seventeen Sekas copper coins!"

The young female alcoholic's interest in Lin En suddenly halved when she heard the words. It seemed that she was just another poor ghost who squandered her savings in order to have a good drink.

"Then I suggest you change the taste..." Old Hawk shrugged, "Of course, if you are interested in earning some extra money, I can help you. The cripple Lauder just needs someone who can help him with private work recently. Guy, he has always been generous and generous!"

Cripple Lauder?Lynn raised his eyebrows. He had heard this name more than once during the time he stayed in Wuer Town to investigate intelligence.

The other party's rumors are not so good...

"Very well, I'm short of a suitable job." Lin En nodded and agreed after a lot of thoughts.

Old Hawke swept the copper coins on the table into his pocket, and beckoned to the waiter in the tavern to temporarily take over his work, then looked at Lynn, and spoke again.

"Come with me, the Guro wine you want is in the cellar, first take it and I will take you to meet him..."

Seeing Lynn follow the old Hawk away without warning, the drinkers who watched the fun couldn't help but gloated.

Everyone who lives in the town of Ur knows that the lame Lauder is notoriously black-hearted despite his generous shots. It is rumored that many people who ran the boat under his hands disappeared inexplicably, and sometimes even a dead body could not be found. arrive……

You have life to get money, but you don't have life to spend...

……

While the drinkers were gloating, Old Hawk led Lynn through the back kitchen, into the storage room full of wheat flour and wooden barrels, and then stopped in front of a huge dirty wine barrel.

click...

Old Hawk pressed down hard on the lid of the wine barrel on the side. With the sound of surging wine, the wine barrel slowly rotated half a circle, and the wooden planks at the bottom suddenly popped out, revealing a secret passageway half the height of a person. .

"Follow this path, the person you want to meet will be inside!" Old Hawk lowered his voice, and stuffed the candlestick that was lit aside into Lynn's arms, warning impatiently. "Be careful yourself, don't cause trouble for me!"

Lin En thanked him, picked up the oil lamp and stepped straight into the dark passage. Behind him, the huge wooden barrel full of wine stains rotated back to its original position, followed by the sound of wine being refilled.

The faint light from the outside disappeared, and the dark passage was pitch black, extending to nowhere. Only the faint candlestick in his hand could barely illuminate the road ahead, and there was still a smell of bad wine in the air.

Lin En walked along the dark passage, and his heart was already vigilant, and he kept recalling the information of several fellow apprentices in his mind.

Since his mentor, Kelu, has been running around all these years, he doesn't have a fixed residence, let alone keep every apprentice by his side.

After all, too many unfamiliar faces suddenly appearing in a city is really eye-catching, which is not conducive to hiding their identities.

Therefore, the original body's understanding of these people is very limited, most of them have only met a few times, and know the name and appearance.

The only one he was more familiar with was Jonny who had sent him a letter before.

Of course, this understanding is one-sided.

To be precise, the original Karl has a delicate feeling for Jonny that is unique to teenagers.

To put it in understandable words, it's unrequited love for the sake of sex.

As Kelu's most favored disciple, Jonny has a high talent for magic, and he is only one step away from becoming an official wizard. He is also the apparent leader of their group of apprentices after Kelu's death.

It's a pity that this kind of one-sided delicate relationship obviously can't provide him with any help.

While Lynn was distracted, the narrow passage in front of him gradually became wider. Through the faint candlelight, Lynn realized that the secret passage actually led to a dense forest outside the town of Ur.

It was already late at night, but the sky was not as dark as expected. The silvery moonlight fell down through the cracks in the jungle branches and leaves. The solid loess ground seemed to be covered with a layer of transparent tulle. Lin En faintly felt the inside of his body. The magic power also became more and more active.

Is this the Sunday of the Moon?
Through the dense bushes, Lynn could vaguely see the bright stars in the sky and the huge moon. According to the memory of his predecessor Carl, this strange astronomical scene only occurs once a year, and it will last for about three to five days. .

However, there is no record in the memory that moonlight can affect magic power.

That's right, it's only been half a year since my predecessor became a wizard...

Just as Lin En was thinking, there was a sudden sound of piercing through the air, and more than a dozen condensed [Magic Missiles] flew out from the surrounding closed woods, blocking his escape routes in front, back, left, and right.

trap?

This idea immediately popped up in Lin En's mind, and he had already reacted the next moment. He flipped his empty left hand, and a ball of gray powder fell into his palm. Casting material - [embers of the red fire]!
Lin En threw it hard, and the dots of powder instantly ignited under the action of magic power, forming a hot wall of fire in front of him.

However, the hastily used new type of magic - [Secondary Fire Wall Art] was naturally no match for the combination of several wizard apprentices, and [Magic Missile] penetrated the sea of ​​flames almost instantly.

Fortunately, Lynn's goal has been achieved. The heat wave and high temperature caused by the wall of fire made these magical creations lose their aim, and they hit the tree trunks and loess land behind them scatteredly.

Seeing four figures covered in black robes approaching him in a semi-circle, Lin En silently pulled out the long sword at his waist, and at the same time untied the storage bag storing the white phosphorus, ready for battle .

Due to the rush of time, the stock of white phosphorus he made is limited, but now is obviously not the time to keep it...

But before Lin En could make a move, a cold voice came out first.

"Carl, why did you betray us?"
