"Are you?" The soldiers of the Warriors looked at Xiao Chen.
"I just came here and took a break in the tavern." Xiao Chen said, "I was just chatting with everyone."
"Yes. Joey, this stranger, didn't do anything inappropriate. He just sat down to eat something and talk casually." The pub owner defended Xiao Chen.
"Yes, he is a trustworthy person. I am so old, I see more people. I can tell." Father Anlock also said.
"Yeah, but an interesting visitor, is it necessary to make such a fuss?" The blacksmith also began to intervene.
The militia fighters here obviously have little deterrent force in front of other people. Everyone in the tavern, you made excuses for Xiao Chen by saying one word, and both fighters hesitated, not knowing what to do with this matter.
Xiao Chen smiled and said, "It seems that the situation is very simple. You want to report to the baron. You have an account. I just like to talk to the baron. It would be better for you to lead the way. Let me see the baron. I Coming from outside happened to carry important information about the plague. "
"Plague? Intelligence? You mean those empires in Kuroki Pass." A soldier just said a few words, and Joey stopped his eyes.
Joey said: "This is the best, you come with me. Lord Baron will not embarrass others."
Barrages ’s mansion is on the north side of the town. It does n’t look too big, just a two-storey house.
Listening to Father Anlock saying that this is just the old mansion of the baron ’s house, but the original big baron ’s mansion was sold by a baron ’s father to a businessman to pay off the debt. Although Baron Pargos now redeemed the baron ’s house Move over to live.
After Joey notified, he gave Xiao Chen to the servant who came to the door to greet him. Xiao Chen followed the servant, and while he was walking, he was observing the decoration in this house.
Since it is an old house, there are naturally many things that have been handed down from earlier. Xiao Chen had speculations about the origin of this family, so he was especially careful when observing the house.
The master's ancestors had many mages and warriors. On the corridor from the front hall to the reception room, there were staffs along the way, and armor and weapons were decorated on both sides.
Most of the staffs, weapons and armor systems are similar to the popular styles on the mainland, but some of them are very special. Xiao Chen saw a sword on the wall, which is different from most of the long sword gauntlets in this world in simple geometric shapes. Its gauntlet is an auspicious cloud, the sword sheath is straight and slender, and there are also cloud patterns on it, and the hilt There is a wisp of sword spikes hanging on the tail. The long sword that looks very old here is a Chinese sword with eight or nine points. Xiao Chen suppressed the curiosity in his heart and followed the servant to move forward. When he came to the entrance of the meeting room, he saw another painting. Although this painting was painted on a canvas commonly used by locals and used local paints, the content was very rare. Landscape paintings made with local paints look a bit weird, and the painter's brushwork also seems a bit naive. But the kind of empty inspiration peculiar to Chinese painting is most vividly expressed in this painting. Whether it is mountain or water, a few simple sketches are used. He glanced at the inscription above, and the signature was never returned.
Xiao Chen went further and found that there was more than one such painting, placed in an ancient mansion, which seemed out of place with the surrounding environment.
auzw.com He is basically certain now that there must be a traverser from China among the past owners of this house. I don't know from what time he came here through any method, but it seems that this is a lonely person.
Entering the parlor, Xiao Chen saw the present owner, Barragos Parags.
The baron looked more than sixty years old and was not tall, but he looked very strong. He was wearing a burlap suit and stood in the middle of the room with his hands on his back, silently watching Xiao Chen walk into this living room. There was a young man beside him, who was quite close to him, and it should be his son Avadia.
Xiao Chen looked at the father and son, trying to find traces of Chinese origin from their faces, but did not find any obvious features. They all have dark brown hair, but their eyes are gray and purple, but their skin color is similar to that of Xiao Chen himself.
"Are you the one who wants to give me plague information?" Baron Paragus said coldly. "I'm afraid your identity is not simple? Are you from the Tower of China?"
Xiao Chen's hand flicked over his face, restoring his original appearance. Dark hair and black eyes, with a friendly smile: "Reintroduce myself, Xiao Chen, the great magician from the Tower of China."
"Great magician?" Xiao Chen's answer was beyond the expectation of the two people opposite him. Barragos of Parags obviously stunned and changed his posture unconsciously, not as proud as before.
No matter how the other party guards against and does not want to see the Tower of China, they cannot ignore a great magician. As the most powerful magical master under the saint, a wizard like Xiao Chen, as long as he is given time, one person ’s power is enough Destroy the entire town.
But Barragos, a mid-level warrior, and his low-ranking son, Avadia, may not be able to support them for two minutes in front of the big magician.
"Will a great magician sneak into our town like this?" Avadia looked at Xiao Chen with suspicious eyes.
Xiao Chen stood there and released a part of his spiritual power. The baron, father and son suddenly felt that the man in front of them suddenly gave them a huge sense of oppression, as if they were transformed into a giant dragon and could crush them anytime and anywhere.
"Please put away your strength, Master Xiao Chen. We don't know your identity in advance, please come over to talk, a little neglected." Barragos said.
"I have no intention to show off my strength, just to prove my strength, to avoid unnecessary misunderstanding and trouble." Xiao Chen said.
"I don't know what your purpose is when you come to my town?" Paragus asked.
Xiao Chendao said: "I was originally here to inform you that the Empire of Heimuguan sent many patients infected with the plague and infiltrated the nearby villages and towns, trying to use the plague to destroy our living power.
Our people have informed you of this news before, but you have not given us any feedback. So naturally someone needs to take a look. And I was easy to move alone. If I met an enemy, I had enough fighting power, so I took over the job.
You are already the fifth village I have run through. The four villages in the front have made different choices and naturally have different results. "
