Vol 2 Chapter 96: Doubt and temptation (Part 2)

"You mean that car?"
The caravan leader was startled by the sudden appearance of Loren, and swallowed and stared at him: "No, nothing, just some words and spices, nothing special, is there any problem?"
"It's nothing, just ask casually." Shrugging slightly, the dark-haired wizard didn't go further: "You don't need to tell me anything, sir."
A few dead horned deer, it is impossible to attract hundreds of ghouls, and even attack humans for food-there must be something else in the camp attracting these monsters.
And there should be nothing other than the things in these cars that can attract their attention. Now that the caravan has left the Principality of Lotel, it is still possible to be attacked by ghouls, proving that these monsters are keeping up with them, rather than having their lair somewhere nearby.
But it didn't make much sense to continue to ask. Loren glanced at the caravan leader slightly, and the opponent was still staring at him alertly-even if he asked himself, I'm afraid he wouldn't speak.
Obviously, this caravan is not the same as you think, it seems to hide a lot of secrets. The dark-haired wizard sighed softly. Since long ago, his long journey has not been smooth sailing.
Is it true that Asriel is some kind of unlucky evil spirit, or something like a weird goblin who can away someone else's luck?
"Dear Loren, how can you slander me this way?" The boy's unhappy voice sounded in his mind.
"Can you hear what I am thinking?"
"No need, you probably never noticed, every time you want to complain about me, it's all an expression."
"..."
"So what do you think we should do now?" The caravan leader looked at Loren hopefully, and the caravan guards around him gathered. After tangling with a teenager, Loren hurriedly said:
"Ghouls are gregarious creatures, so there must be their temporary lairs nearby, if we can find them, we can destroy them all at once.
Of course, this is more dangerous-the sky is about to dim. This monster has a very powerful night vision. If we are not careful, we will be caught and eaten by them one by one. After all, there are hundreds of them. It is several times our number.
Another option is that we hurry up overnight and leave here as soon as possible. These monsters do not adapt to the environment outside the Principality of Lothal, and will not continue after catching up for a while. "
Speaking of which, Loren, who looked at the caravan leader intentionally or unintentionally, raised his voice deliberately: "Not to mention that since we have found the reason for chasing us, then just discard the bodies of these big deer."
"Yes, yes, as long as these bodies are thrown away." The caravan leader nodded again and again, it was a pity to glance at the dead big horned deer, and gritted his teeth bitterly. Just throw away the carrion, it ’s not worth any money anyway! "
The caravan guards around were relieved, thanking that they didn't have to fight these monsters-even if they knew they were afraid of flames, that's not to say that these monsters were not terrible.
As for Loren, he could use the "Fire of Turin" to directly blow these ghouls together with the lair into the sky, but since the other party didn't ask for it, he was also happy. Defeat Metzka's sequelae and make him use this higher-order spell more or less.
What's more, since even Asriel felt a certain danger, a certain level of vigilance was necessary. Hidden some strength when it is unnecessary, it is possible to save your life at a critical moment.
At the suggestion of the black-haired wizard, the determined caravan leader finally chose to hurry all night. The surrounding buddies and servants immediately began to pack things, and the caravan guards who had just ended the battle also swiftly put away the tent and carried their luggage on their backs to set off.
Although a busy afternoon's work is all wasted, sweat is nothing compared to fighting a group of cannibal monsters. After cleaning the camp, the caravan set off again with the moon already in the sky.
As the night deepened, the caravan guards riding horses lit their torches around the sides of the truck, and the exquisite four-wheeled carriage led the way.
This makes Loren somewhat surprised. Generally speaking, isn't the caravan of the caravan owner close to the middle position? If I walk in front, what should I do if I accidentally encounter a pit or something?
Before he even asked, the four suspected oil lamp decorations on the carriage's roof suddenly burst into dazzling white light, and the originally dark road immediately seemed like a day.
"Fireflies"? !
"You probably haven't seen it. This thing is called a fluorite lamp. It's a new gadget that appeared more than a year ago." It was seen that Loren's startled caravan leader was riding on an old horse, and his face was not proud. Smiled: "It is now an important product of the Corona family, and many nobles from other places have placed orders for our workshop."
"Even including the Grand Duke Friedel of Lotel, we came here this time to deliver him, including twenty full fluorite lamps!"
Looking at the other person's proud look, Loren's attention was completely attracted by the few fluorite lamps-locking the low-level spell on the item, even in a completely new way, it was like It opens a brand new mode!
Although Loren seems to understand alchemy, it is certain that the creator of this thing somehow completely distorted the lamp by the power of the void, and even formed the established "curse", as long as some Simple trigger conditions can be used.
In a sense, its own "bright silver" is also the same principle, but the use of the form is very different.
"What a masterpiece!"
"When you arrive in Ebden, you can see more weird things. Who knows what the wizards have created in these months?" The caravan leader waved excitedly: " Oops, I really have a bad memory. Are you going to Ebden now for that kind of thing? "
"For ... that kind of thing?" Loren puzzled.
"Don't sell the slogan, Lord Loren Turin, this is nothing new in Ebden-wait until the next full moon, that is, before the summer season, the talented alchemist Alto of the Bellini family, A banquet will be held in front of the Great Book Collection Tower, and countless wizards will come to attend when the time comes to look at this handsome face of the genius! "
"really?"
"Um ... actually to curse him is almost the same as demolishing the station. After all, he alone compared half of the wizards of Ebden, and the rest was buried into the earth long ago, hahahahahaha ..." This looks The sympathetic little fat middle-aged man laughed loudly.
"But I want to come to the Alto Bellini to hold this banquet, it should not be for any academic exchanges, but to take the opportunity to show off and sell his kind of pharmacy." The caravan leader suddenly sighed:
"With this kind of good thing that cures all diseases ~ EbookFREE.me ~ The Bellini family will definitely make a fortune, maybe they will have a relationship with the church royal family, and I may have to find a way to please They are. Alas ... who can make such a genius heir, and hit Dayun to get this kind of potion! "
The dark-haired wizard smiled irresponsibly, echoing the fat middle-aged man, and then turned to another topic: "Excuse me, how many days are we from Eboden?"
"Eboden? It's actually not far away." The caravan leader pointed to a tower towering across the road in the distance under the silver moonlight. The faint fire could be seen on the top of the tower.
"Seeing that lighthouse is not there-when we get there and enter the territory of Ebden, the road is much easier to walk, we can follow the paved road all the way to the city!"
As he said, the middle-aged man with a very excited expression looked at Loren: "Are you so anxious, is there a friend waiting for you?"
"Yeah, a friend is waiting for me." As if thinking of something, Loren smiled with a playful expression:
"Can't make him wait."
