Chapter 22 Halfway

Hearing the knock on the door, Coven canceled the barrier with a wave of his hand, and then nodded to Natalie.

Natalie lowered her right arm slightly, assuming a posture that could instantly draw out the dagger, and then opened the door with her left hand.

The scene outside the door stunned Natalie.

Tager was seen carefully holding a wooden stick and was about to continue knocking on the door with the wooden stick.

"What are you doing?" Natalie relaxed and couldn't help asking.

Hearing this, Tager took back the wooden stick, and then explained with a naive smile: "I'm afraid of being accidentally injured by the magic trap."

Natalie rolled her eyes and then said, "Okay, the magic and traps have been lifted. How were you last night?"

"It's very easy." Galken walked out of the guest room and replied with a smile: "I caught two stupid thieves and stretched my muscles a little."

"Where are the people?" Natalie asked with a frown.

"Thrown it out."

Galken pointed back at the window of his room: "Thrown out of the window."

At this time, Ke Wen also walked out of the room, said hello and asked: "When are we going to Stormwind City? Should we leave now, or should we wait for the bar owner's carriage to arrive?"

"Let's go together."

Natalie obviously had a plan, so she immediately said: "Being with the people in the bar can also reduce some trouble on the road. If those guys don't want to survive in 'Golden Town', they don't dare to do it in front of the bar's purchasing staff. He took action against us."

Garken nodded in agreement.

…

Today’s ‘Pride of the Lion’ hotel seems a bit abnormal.

Normally, no one comes here to drink in the morning. Only some tenants on the second floor will have breakfast in the lobby on the first floor.

However, it was different today. The tables in the entire hall were nearly half full.

Except for a table of traveling businessmen who had just come to Goldshire yesterday, the other diners were all adventurers.

After seeing Kewen and others coming downstairs,

The entire bar hall suddenly became quiet.

This caused the three of Galken to tense up and become alert instantly.

Fortunately, someone broke the silence.

Among the two adventurers who originally cooperated with Galken's team, the bald man spoke up and said with an awkward smile: "Hey Galken, good morning."

"I'm not good." Galken slowly walked down the stairs and looked around the entire hall and said: "Our team did not hide any secrets and published the methods that can make people make a lot of money. However! There are still some greedy guys who want to To go astray..."

Staring at a few adventurers with evasive eyes, Galken narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a smile: "I don't know if you heard it last night, but throughout the second half of the night, there were many screams on the second floor. of."

"Uh haha..." The balding adventurer continued to laugh, and then said: "Yes, those guys are indeed despised, haha..."

Ke Wen walked to the bar, while the three of Galken sat down at the dining table near the bar.

After sitting down, Galken asked the bald adventurer who looked a little embarrassed, "Everyone came so early today. What happened?"

"Uh, that's right Garken."

The bald adventurer looked at the others, and then said bravely: "Everyone drank last night, and I was worried that I didn't hear what you said clearly, so, can you..."

Galken looked around at all the adventurers again, then shrugged and said: "Next time, today we are going to Stormwind City to exchange money and buy equipment. We may not be able to come back until tomorrow, so let's do it tomorrow night..."

"that……"

Encouraged by the looks of other adventurers, the bald man continued to speak bravely: "Garken, everyone wants to follow you to Stormwind City to see it."

"What did you see?" Galken's tone turned cold.

"Don't get me wrong!" the bald man explained hurriedly: "Everyone wants to see how much money your team made this time. Everyone wants to weigh whether it is worth risking using your method to face hundreds of animals. 'Kobold'."

Galken did not respond immediately, but looked at Natalie and Tager.

Then, Galken looked at Kewen who was sitting in front of the bar.

As if sensing the sight, Kewen turned back and glanced at Galken, then nodded slowly.

Seeing this, Galken felt slightly relaxed.

He looked at the adventurers in the hall again, and then said with a smile: "Okay, we will go on the road with the bar's cargo carriage later. If you want to follow, then come with us to 'Stormwind City' Let's see."

Hearing this, the bald man breathed a sigh of relief, and the other adventurers finally spoke up and thanked him hypocritically. It was so generous to compliment Garken...

The entire breakfast time was spent in this very false atmosphere.

At about eight o'clock, the carriage sent by the bar owner to 'Stormwind City' to replenish goods began to set off.

This time, only Coven and Natalie got on the carriage.

Galken and Tager walked to the left and right of the carriage, taking a very calm and defensive attitude.

Along the way, the atmosphere seemed a bit tense.

Galken and Tager often turned back to observe the dozen adventurers following the carriage.

However, after avoiding the sight of Garken and Tagle, the sight of those adventurers continued to become unscrupulous.

Ke Wen is very sensitive, and every once in a while, he can feel many eyes approaching.

This made him frown, a little impatient.

An hour later, nearly halfway through the journey, Kewen's eyes suddenly lit up while sitting in the carriage.

Because he sensed a pack of wolves approaching quickly from the forest to the main road.

As a result, he suddenly stood up from the carriage.

His actions made everyone tense instantly.

Garken quickly took off the giant sword from his back, and Tager also raised his shield and one-handed hammer. Natalie also stood up from the car, crouching like a female leopard, ready to pounce at any time. Going out.

As for the adventurers behind the carriage, they were stunned for a moment, and then their reactions were divided into two types.

One was like a bald man, and a total of six adventurers showed blank expressions.

The remaining twelve adventurers showed another attitude.

They quickly took out their weapons. The object of their alert was not the forest on both sides of the road, but instead they looked at the four people of Ke Wen.

"Roar——"

Tager suddenly let out a war cry, and Kewen suddenly felt that the 'adrenaline' in his body had increased slightly.

"Kevin!"

Galken's voice sounded. While guarding against the adventurers, he asked Coven: "What's going on!"

"Wolves..."

Ke Wen glanced at the adventurers behind the carriage, and then responded indifferently without paying attention to those people.

After hearing this, Galken secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was not Kewen who discovered anything unusual about the adventurers.

But even so, Garken still did not put away his vigilance.

Because the false peace along the way seemed to be broken by Ke Wen's actions.

From this, he reminded in a low voice: "Be careful. When we deal with the wolves later, everyone should pay attention."

"No need."

Ke Wen said softly: "I will suppress those people's little thoughts, just watch."

After the words fell, Ke Wen raised his hand and made the staff appear out of thin air in his hand.

His actions caused some commotion among the adventurers, and many people subconsciously took defensive actions.

Coven paid no attention to those adventurers.

He turned to look at the forest on the right, and then recited a spell in a low voice.

After a few breaths, a wolf suddenly jumped out from behind the giant tree on the roadside, and then eight more wild wolves rushed onto the main road.

The wolves showed no fear and charged directly towards the group of adventurers behind the carriage.

"Wolves!"

"careful!"

…

The adventurers shouted, facing the attack of the wolves, they had no intention of paying attention to Ke Wen and the others.

At this moment, Ke Wen on the carriage suddenly pointed his staff at the wolves.

Click boom——

There was a deafening thunder, and a thick bolt of lightning shot out from the top of the staff.

The thunderbolt hit the wolf instantly, and then quickly struck the other wild wolves.

A moment later, the charging bodies of the nine wild wolves suddenly stopped. All the wild wolves were charred, black and smoking, and their bodies fell to the ground stiffly.

The scorch was mixed with the scent of meat, and the smell of wolf corpses was pushed by the breeze and spread to the nostrils of the adventurers.

Everyone froze. After seeing the tragic situation of the wolves, their eyes towards Ke Wen became extremely horrified.

In response, Kewen slowly withdrew his staff, then deliberately raised his voice and asked: "Nana, can these wolves still be skinned?"

Natalie cooperated very well and also raised her voice and said: "What good thing are you thinking of!? Didn't you see? What you have done to the fur of those wild wolves, who would buy that kind of wolf skin?"

"Really? What a shame."

Corwin shook his head in an affected manner, then waved his wand again.

Bear--

Flames suddenly rose from all the wolf corpses. In the blink of an eye, the wolf corpses turned into ashes in the flames.

Such a sight made all the adventurers even more nervous.

No one has ever seen such a powerful flame that can turn flesh and blood into ashes instantly.

At this moment, the adventurers avoided Ke Wen's sight and put away their weapons in a panic.

Kewen put the staff back into his pocket, stood on the carriage deliberately, and glanced at all the adventurers.

The adventurers noticed this out of the corner of their eyes, and they couldn't help but behave more nicely and make themselves appear more harmless.

Ke Wen chuckled and leaned over to sit down.

"Tsk..." Natalie chuckled disdainfully.

"Hmph..."

"hey-hey……"

Galken and Tager also couldn't help but let out their own low laughs...
