Chapter 471 Traces
Based on some information Jim said, Herage learned that the jellyfish should be preparing for something.
It should suddenly appear in Qianhu Lake at the beginning, and then prepare to make this place its own territory.
That's why so many fishmen were sent out later, with the purpose of turning the surrounding area into their own territory so that they could continue to complete things.
Only later, the appearance of the exorcist defeated the fishman army, and the appearance of Arios made the jellyfish realize that this place was not safe, so they chose to move.
No one knows the method of transfer. Anyway, the jellyfish and all the fish-men disappeared out of thin air.
"Is this what you came to me for?" Herage asked after understanding.
Jim rubbed the back of his head and said: "Actually, there is one more thing. Lord Arios sent me to garrison in the Ulster Mountains this winter. It is said that there is some instability there. Due to the shortage of manpower recently, there are currently only I'm an exorcist. I really don't have much confidence in my own abilities, so I was wondering if you could come with me. The reward will be the same as mine, thirty gold coins for three months."
"Are there many monsters over there?" Herage only asked one sentence.
Jim said: "There should be a lot of them there. It's close to the mountain area, and there are monsters coming out from time to time. And according to what Lord Arios mentioned before, there may be extraterritorial demons there. If we can find some clues, it will definitely be a great achievement. One piece.”
"Clues to the demon outside the territory?" Herage pretended to be confused.
Jim said: "When you first came to Amy City, we saw the man tied to the cross in the square. Master Arios said that they were people from other worlds who intended to take over our world. The Ulster Mountains There are suspected activities of these extraterrestrial demons over there, because some of the traces don’t look like they were left by monsters, nor do they look like they were left by exorcists.”
He looked around and whispered: "Actually, my main purpose in the past was to find out these things. Don't tell anyone about this matter. At present, only we know it internally. If the demons from outside the territory find out, they will definitely run away. . I thought those people must be very powerful, so I came to you for help.”
Herage hesitated for a moment and then said hesitantly: "Well... OK, I'll go with you."
"Really? Thank you so much, my friend!" Jim was very happy. He didn't have high hopes at first, but he didn't expect that Herage actually agreed.
Normal people must avoid danger and would not go there knowing there is danger.
Jim told the truth because he didn't want to deceive Herague, so he told the truth that there might be extraterritorial demon activities there.
The extraterrestrial demons are unknown, mysterious and powerful to them. No one knows what will happen after encountering them, and no one knows the strength of the other party.
Jim really didn't have much confidence in his own strength, and he couldn't hire other powerful exorcists, so he had to come to Herrag to try.
Herage said righteously: "This is what I should do. It is an honor for me to be able to make a small contribution to protecting our world."
Jim looked at Herrag and felt that this man's whole body seemed to be bathed in holy light.
"Thank you so much. When we get back from there, if we can get things done, we will definitely gain the respect of Lord Arios. Especially a master like you, who is young and has potential, will definitely be favored by Arios. Mr. Si looked at him differently," Jim said.
Herage said: "Stop talking nonsense, when will we set off?"
"In about three days, I need to prepare some supplies. There is already a station there, and there is no shortage of daily necessities. The roads are also very smooth, and you can eat fresh food even in winter. It's just that there is a bit of manpower shortage there, and there is an urgent need. The exorcists were stationed there,” Jim explained.
Herage said: "I understand, then you can come directly to the hotel to find me when the time comes."
…
After Herage left Jim, he returned to the hotel where he lived.
When he was in the room, he recalled Jim's expressions and movements throughout the whole process, and found no problems.
Herage also doubted at first whether it was a trap set for him.
But after thinking about it, he thought that the possibility was extremely low, because he had never shown any abnormality from beginning to end, and he had not had much contact with Arios.
If this matter was a trap set for him, it must have been arranged by Arios, which meant that Arios saw what was wrong with him.
But if this is the case, Arios can directly take down himself without having to go through so much trouble.
Herage finally decided to go to the Ulster Mountains to take a look. If there were really traces of other wizards, then he could find some clues.
There are many things that these exorcists cannot see or notice, but as a wizard, Herague can easily see many traces.
Three days later, Jim drove a carriage to the door of the hotel to pick up Herrag.
This time he took a total of two carriages out, followed by a carriage driven by a groom named Cobb.
The carriage was filled with all kinds of supplies. Because we were going to stay there for the whole winter, we had a lot of things prepared.
Herage just carried a big bag with various things in it.
But the main purpose of this big bag is to cover up the existence of the space ring and make many things appear more reasonable and unobtrusive.
The two carriages picked up speed after leaving the city, driving northwest on the main road, which is the direction of the Ulster Mountains.
It took five days for the carriage to arrive at a mountain village below the Alster Mountains.
There are more than a dozen soldiers from Amy City stationed here. They are mainly guarding the entrance to the Ulster Mountains and their mission is to monitor the movements here.
If any monsters come out of the mountains or there are any unusual movements in the mountains, they must notify Amy City immediately.
There are not many houses in the villa, and many soldiers live in one room. The conditions are relatively simple.
Herag and Jim each have a small room. Although the room is small, it has everything.
There is also a fireplace, and there are piles of firewood outside the house, so they are not afraid of the cold in winter.
The groom who came with Herag and the others lived with those soldiers, and he would also stay here for the whole winter.
After Herag came here, he looked at the surrounding terrain.
They are actually located halfway up the mountain. There are dense forests near the villa, and the entrance to the Ulster Mountains is opposite. Standing in the yard of the villa, you can see it directly without any obstruction.
The cold wind blew, and the weather became colder and colder. Snowflakes were floating in the air.
Judging from the current trend, it won’t be long before this place is covered in snow and becomes a world of ice and snow. (End of this chapter)
