Chapter 49, The White Wolf Tells a Story

Ryan and Teresa walked side by side on the streets of Mijordenhaven, and Banda followed behind them with an expression of uncertainty. Compared with the previous Kaltzenhaven, this port town is much more prosperous. The roads of the town It is already composed of artificial gravel roads, the proportion of low long houses in the building has been greatly reduced, more two-story houses, and more pointed buildings appear in Ryan's vision.

The complexion of the residents is also healthier. In addition to the linen clothes, many residents wear robes, soft hats and even leather jackets. There is smoke from the bakery on the roadside, and the scent from it makes people who have been in the field all day Ryan was a little moved.

Teresa leaned on her staff, her eyes radiated a moving brilliance: "Can you tell me what happened? Don't tell me that you defeated the Doomsday Bull with one move."

"It's not that easy!" Ryan took out the huge bull's head. The doomsday bull's head was so huge that even Banda, who was following them, opened his mouth wide: "Almost died."

"Can you tell me in detail?" The sorceress looked at Ryan through the butterfly glasses with her slender Danfeng eyes.

Ryan told Teresa the whole process, and Teresa was terrified, especially after hearing that the doomsday bull had evolved into a four-armed bull demon, her pretty face turned pale, looking at the scars on Ryan's face and the wounded Bandaged shoulders, imagining how thrilling this battle is.

After a long time, she murmured: "The mysterious lady would never force us to fight against such a powerful enemy, maybe... I mean maybe, the Lord of the White Wolf is too harsh on you..."

"..." Ryan didn't answer. Originally, as the White Wolf Knight, he had to at least explain and refute.

But he didn't. What Lawn said to him lingered in his mind. Urick was indeed very harsh on his followers. Many of his followers lost their lives just to please him or because of his orders. .

"In the end, I used my magic to detonate the fire oil that Oliver and the others abandoned..." Ryan told the sorceress the last paragraph, and told her that he had met the mission knight, Lawn.

"I didn't meet them, but I heard from Wilt that they were indeed besieged by beastmen again on the way down the mountain. It was a mission knight who saved them." Teresa nodded, she and Emilia Instead of catching up with the fleeing caravan, the sorceress relied on the power of magic to let the pine cones slide down the glacier. Two hours after she arrived in the town, the caravan arrived late, and everyone was injured.

"I'm right, right? Banda?" Teresa even turned around and asked Banda, who was following them, in order to prove it.

"Huh? Uh... well, yes, it was the knight who saved us." Banda was obviously lost in thought, he was stunned for a while, and then he replied with a flushed face.

Neither of them cared about the strange situation of the little mercenary, but continued to talk about the terrible battle.

Yes!

Yes! ! ! Why can't I think of it? Pour fierce oil on the body of the doomsday bull, and then ignite it! After Banda heard how Ryan dealt with Doomsday Bull, more thoughts came to his mind.

It's so simple, why can't I think of it?

Banda had already ignored all the bitter battle that Ryan told before. He only remembered that Ryan threw out the fierce oil and used the torch to detonate it, and easily defeated the doomsday bull.

Yes, you should have thought, you should have done it, and there were more voices in his head: You should have been favored by Lady Trovik, but now everything is ruined!

No... no, Mr Lane saved my life! I can't do this to him!

But your time is running out, and in a few days, Ms. Trovik will be parting from you!

What the little mercenary didn't notice was that blood began to appear in his eyes, and a feeling of hating everything and wanting to destroy everything gradually gained the upper hand.

The road soon came to an end. Through the path paved with gravel, a White Wolf Church appeared in front of the three of them. Ryan stopped in his tracks: "I'm going to deliver the task. Let's meet again later."

"Well, I have already opened a room for you in the Butter Hotel." Teresa nodded. The White Wolf Church generally does not welcome women, and she does not need to intervene in such internal affairs. After making an appointment with Ryan to have dinner together at night, left alone.

Seeing this, Banda quickly followed, but Teresa refused with a smile: "You don't have to follow me anymore, Banda, go do your own thing."

"But..." The little mercenary was about to say something, but when he looked up, he saw that the sorceress had gone far away.

…………

In the White Wolf Temple.

The white flame that symbolizes Ulrich's divine power is burning in the brazier. The entire temple is filled with all kinds of trophies and weapons. The strong temple warriors are training. They are still wearing the simplest single clothes in the middle of winter. This is to show Ulric his strength, glory and courage.

The priest of the temple knelt and prayed in front of the brazier as always, and behind the brazier was the icy statue of the White Wolf God of War. He has spent more than ten years like this, and today is no exception.

"Urik grants me strength, may the white flame of the wolf god shine forever in the north of the empire~" The pastor recited the prayer for more than ten years.

For more than ten years, he knew that the answer to him was still silence.

At this moment, an accident happened, the white flames in the brazier exploded, the wind was strong in the temple, the white void door opened in the temple, and a huge white wolf jumped out of the door. This is Urik Herald incarnate!

"Oh! My Lord!" The priest of the temple immediately led all the people in the temple to kneel down, with tears in their eyes. The prayers for more than ten years have finally paid off, and the white wolf war god Urik has come!

But they soon discovered that the White Wolf God of War did not come for them, because there was a White Wolf Knight standing at the door.

"Boy, you did a good job." The white wolf said, looking at the kneeling people around, stretched out its fluffy paws: "You all, go out, I have something to tell him... and, Prepare five catties of cooked mutton and wine!"

"Yes!" Facing the god's oracle, the priests obeyed in a low voice, and then left collectively.

Only the white wolf and Ryan were left in the room. Ryan first knelt down on one knee respectfully towards the white wolf, and then offered Taus' head to it: "My lord..."

"Well... I am very satisfied with your courage and belief." The white wolf nodded, motioned for Ryan to put the head into the fire, and then raised his head and said, "You will be rewarded."

Ryan's heart moved after hearing the reward, but there was no reaction on his face, but he looked a little anxious: "That, my lord, is about the Old Sage..."

"...Don't be impatient, boy, as my believer, you must know how to talk while eating." The huge white wolf's tail swept back and forth, and Ryan thought that the white wolf looked like a husky.

Uh... don't think like that, it's blasphemy.

But it really seems like it.

While Ryan was thinking wildly, the priests brought in the cooked mutton and wine, Husky signaled Ryan to enjoy it, and he opened his mouth wide, gnawing on the mutton vigorously: "Boy, do you want to know about the Old Sage? ?”

"yes."

"Can you tell me why you want to know about the Old Sage?" Husky gnawed off a large piece of mutton, chewing wantonly.

"Because...of curiosity, but also because...well, I want to understand why they are so powerful." Ryan pretended to hesitate, and then said slowly: "My lord, don't you think that whether it's a dwarf, an elf, or It’s other ancient holy creations, they are stronger than humans, aren’t they?”

Ryan's implication is simple.

Compared with dwarves or elves, human beings have inherent disadvantages. Elves can easily live for hundreds of years, and powerful elves can live for thousands of years. Once an elf proudly said that if it were not for the curse of the Phoenix throne, our king It is not a lie that the curtain will hardly end with time, and dwarves are also long-lived species, and it is not a problem to live for hundreds of years.

Elves are born with a high affinity for magic, and dwarves are natural fighters. Why don't humans have any benefits?

"Hmph~Young people always like to think about it, that's all, I'll tell you what I know, listen up boy, now it's time to tell stories." Husky stuck out his tongue, and then said: "Almost Just over 10,000 years ago, the Old Sage came to this world."

Ryan bowed his head to show that he was listening carefully, and stopped talking.

"Is it 17,000 years ago? Or 16,000 years ago? I don't quite remember the exact number. In short, the Old Sage used the interstellar portal and came to this world." The large husky seemed to be recalling In the past, it swallowed the mutton in its mouth, and then continued: "Their appearance looks like giant amphibians, with smooth heads, long limbs and big stomachs."

Ryan thought this was the same as the information from his father!

"The Old Ones did a lot of things. I don't know how they created them. What I know is that they shortened and changed the orbit of the planets, making the main material world more suitable for living creatures... In short, they first created the Slann Demon Toads—a powerful magical creature made in their image, and then made Lizardmen as their servants."

"Elves and dwarves were also created. You know their glory, and then the Old One left this world very quickly."

"However, about 1,700 years ago, that is, at the end of the catastrophe period, when Charlemagne conquered the world, the Old Sages hurried back to this world again. They seemed to be avoiding something, but after all They didn’t escape, and not long after they returned to this world, an earth-shattering explosion occurred at the portal located in the northern wasteland. Did the Old Sages escape, or did they all die in the explosion? Everyone knows, what I know is that this explosion once again attracted four evil beings from outside the galaxy." Husky stuck out his tongue.

"You mean, chaos?" Ryan seemed to realize for a while.

"Yes, this is not the first time that Chaos came. The first Chaos that you know is actually the second time. The first Chaos came not long after the Old Ones left. We called it the Battle of the Maelstrom. At that time Humans are still drinking blood. It was Slann who joined forces with elves and dwarves to repel the chaos army. In order to repel chaos, Alario, the first Phoenix King of the elves, even gave his life. Finally, the elves created a maelstrom and drained the chaos The wind of chaos that was needed came, and then Slann used the 'Great Guardian' to close the portal." Husky's face was serious: "But when the second time came, the elves split into high elves and dark elves, and a process is going on. At that time, I judged that the strength of humans and dwarves alone was not enough to fight against the Chaos army, so I chose to come into the world myself."

"Let's not mention this now, let's talk about the Old Sage again. The return of the Old Sage has brought deep evil consequences. The portal that had been closed has been opened again, and it has been opened permanently, so now the main material world All creatures will be under the threat of Chaos forever, and will never die!" Husky drank a glass of strong wine and howled: "That's all I know."

"Oh, by the way, the appearance of green skins is also a good thing done by the old saints. Their flying machines are stained with a lot of green spores, and these things finally become damn green skins!" Huskies have eaten enough meat and drunk enough Wine, the ground is full of bones, it stretched out its fluffy paws and wiped its mouth casually: "That's all I know, what else do you want to ask, kid?"

"That's it, then... Did the Old Sage leave any relics? The great creator should have left some relics for me to admire, right?" Ryan seemed to have accepted Urick's answer, but he still seemed a little curious .

"Speaking of relics, there is one near this city, which is a compass used by the Old Sages to record time." Husky picked up the huge bull's head and disappeared on the other side of the portal.

Ryan, who heard the news, lowered his head, his eyes flashed, and he bid farewell to Urik respectfully. The pastors of the White Wolf Church came back one after another, and asked cautiously, "Is there any order from my lord?"

"He said I would be rewarded."

Several priests looked at each other, and the leading priest nodded, and then took out a glass bottle in Ryan's gaze... Scooped a spoonful of white grease into a large bucket on the side, and then sent it to Ryan's Hand: "Please, sir."

that's it? Ryan looked at the white oil in a small bottle, his face twitched a bit, he just nodded without saying a word, and then left the White Wolf Temple.

No one noticed Ryan's hidden expression and clenched hands.

Only one bottle of oil! There is also a general history!

There is nothing wrong with White Wolf Holy Oil being a good helper in maintaining weapons, but it is not worth much. This small can of oil can be bought in any White Wolf Temple! A can of two gold dinars! !

Just give me this? !
