Chapter 398 Desire

Every moss-covered tile-roofed house in the town has a faint firelight, so people can be sure that it can be lived in.

The crisp sound of the city gate closing made some locals couldn't help but look east through the windows. When they saw a carriage driven by Pastor Moore driving down the street, some rumors about the "Death Carriage" spread. .

They made up several stories for this with the unique conservatism and stupidity of the Imperial people. Fortunately, only Lynch heard their vague conversation.

The most eye-catching thing in the city is the military camp on the central square. Lynch could see a few old knights resting in it, and the younger ones were probably in Sylvania.

It was difficult for hot-blooded warriors to keep their military appearance in peak condition at all times, so when Lynch found that they were all drunk to the point of unconsciousness, he was not surprised at all.

Eugen, who was driving, nervously searched for the hotel, and finally drove the car near the pier.

The strange thing is that there are two harbors here. Far away from the shore in the north of the city, and closer to the edge of the city in the west. On the decaying harbor stands the temple of Sharya, and there are also a few patrolling Mannawi knights. Activities and no one else.

It is separated from the city by an iron wire net, and at the entrance and exit of the iron net are soldiers on guard and fishing nets of unknown purpose.

When the three comrades got off the carriage and knocked on the closed door of the hotel, Lin Qi looked away. It was obvious that the hotel here did not welcome people staying at night. Who knew if they were human beings?

He helped everyone - Lynch kicked the door open.

The scream of the hotel proprietress was accompanied by the sound of a gunshot. The bullet fired by the owner was stopped in mid-air by the mage before it even got close to the lizard man.

"Don't be nervous, sir, madam, we just want to find a place to rest at this time." Teclis opened his hood, revealing his handsome head in shining armor.

This is obviously more friendly than the dwarf's fierce glare. The only bad thing is that the boss seems to be able to see Lynch. He has been rubbing his eyes and observing his wife's reaction from time to time.

Fortunately, all most mortals can see now is a fire.

Lynch wisely kept silent, which would cause a lot of unnecessary trouble, just as he sat and watched the city guards break into the hotel and confront the three unlucky men.

If violence is required, there will be a chain reaction.

To put it simply, beating the city guards will most likely cause these humans to overreact, and then they will have to kill all the people in the city. This is unnecessary.

"Sir, it was just an accident." Under the eager attention of the guards, Eugen approached the noncommissioned officer leading the team and gave the bribe to him through a handshake.

The sergeant with a normal expression cleared his throat, seemingly objectively verifying the identities of the three travelers.

This matter must not be made a big deal. It would be bad if the local baron knew about it. When the time comes and they are asked who let them in, everyone here will not be happy.

After paying a relatively high check-in fee and compensation for the door, everyone got a satisfactory result.

The hotel returned to calm, and the three travelers were guided upstairs with yawns. Lin Qi, who was considered a "wizard's trick", naturally had no idea of ​​going upstairs.

The other tenants who were disturbed by the noise continued to rest after realizing that nothing happened. It was another peaceful night.

After washing up, Eugen lay down on the not-so-soft bed. The human hardwood bed was only padded with some cotton. This made Eugen couldn't help but miss the elf hotel. The carpets there were softer than the old-smelling mats here. .

In any case, it's much better here than on the carriage. Not only do you have to endure the snoring of the dwarves, but you also have to endure the harder wooden boards. You can't even lie down on them. You have to huddle up for several days in a row, and you have to endure the toll of the road. Bumps, this is definitely not acceptable to normal people.

With the lizards on guard outside, Eugen was not worried about his safety after falling asleep, which meant that he only needed to fall asleep and not sleep lightly just in case.

For most people in this world, this kind of sleep is hard to come by.

With a slight smile on his lips, the Oracle quietly waited for the dream to come.

There are always one or two idiots who don't know how to rest in the middle of the night. When he heard the suppressed conversation in the next room, Eugen was not surprised at all.

He covered his ears with a yellowed pillow, trying to ignore the other party's communication, but in this silent night, even the smallest steps would amplify into a roar.

"Did you dream about her too?"

"No, I dreamed of gold, just north of Sakaar Port, where the sea stays unnaturally still."

The more suppressed whispers were successfully overheard by the oracle with keen senses:

"There is a sunken ship filled with gold there, my friend. I asked during the day and there is indeed a cargo ship from the New World that sank into the nearby seawater."

"Then you must also know that even the locals are unwilling to sail there. It is said that the singing of sirens can be heard there, and many ships have sunk in that sea water."

golden siren

Eugen was inevitably disturbed. Unlike the elves and lizards, he and the dwarves both needed money.

He must admit that he is a layman and that his companions are working hard to save the world, but for Eugen, this is too general. Even a hero who saves the world needs material support.

What's more, the sunken ship comes from the New World. Eugen has already imagined that the ship is full of gold. For the cold-blooded creatures in the rainforest, gold is as cheap as dirt. Any adventurer who steps into the rainforest can escape unscathed. Both can get the same amount of wealth.

How long will the money given to them by the elves be enough? One year? Or three years?

What happens after that?

A voice whispered in Eugen's ear.

Lynch opened his closed eyelids and looked at the ceiling thoughtfully.

Yeah, what about after that? The lizards may leave them at any time, and Eugen will have to return to his former wandering life, and the same goes for the dwarves.

Wait, lizard? You mean the lizard people? * # *&**!

The voice stopped abruptly.

Eugen opened his sleepy eyes in confusion. He seemed to have had a dream just now.

The uncontrollable sleepiness left him no time to think about it. The next moment, he just closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Lynch sensed it carefully and followed the flash of evil will. He left the hotel and walked to the dock area.

The turbulent sea washed Lynch's scales with the sea breeze, and the moisture could not cover up the demonic aura brought by the sea breeze. It was rampant just now, but after a while, it disappeared.

It only took this short moment for Lin Qi to see the other party's origin.

There is a demon, a sealed demon, an ancient demon that has been sealed for thousands of years.

Who can perfectly seal the devil away for thousands of years?

God? Ancient Sage?

After they left, only the most outstanding elf mages and rune masters in ancient times, or the Slan far away in the rainforest, had such means in the world.
