MTL - Dawn of the Grey Tower-Chapter 10 frank
Three days after capturing Gloria, who turned into a ratman, the cheese finally appeared in the Dragon's Peak Pub again. In the three days of discussion, there are many sayings in the town about the disappearance of this mysterious man. Two of the Frost Guards vowed that the mage had hidden monsters that had attacked livestock in the tavern. This made the villagers relieved that the mage was no longer missing while thanking the mage. After all, the possibility that the two things alone defeated the monster and domesticated the monster to devour the animals may now happen in the eyes of the villagers. Perhaps the latter is even greater.
At the same time, although Commander Jon, the leader of the Frost Guard, received a report on this matter, the old commander is not focusing on these "little things". Perhaps it is indeed a good pastime in the usual time. However, after following the advice of the cheese last time and sending two successive batches of soldiers to the Earl of Saron, the two teams were as if they were sinking into the sea without any reply. It used to take only three days to go to the valley city led by the Earl of Saron from a small town under the mountain. Even three days after the first team departed, Commander Jon sent a second team for fear. Answer, but also let the second team carry the communication pigeons. But now six days have passed, not to mention the pigeons, that is, none of the crows have flown from the south.
Damn, the grey robe's warning is probably true. Commander Jon wanted to visit the cheese on the fourth day to get more advice, but was told that the cheese was not in the tavern. The absolute trust in Elsa made the old commander have no doubts about the lies of the boss. Although the cheese was indeed not at the top of the Dragon's Back then. In desperation, he could only deploy the defenders on the hill to the south, and at the same time began to build defensive wooden fences and lookouts. For a long time, the Frost Guard has only focused on the threat of the North, coupled with its scarcity of resources, and its military strength, and other reasons, the past lords of the South have not thought about this legion. Therefore, the south-facing defense facilities of the Legion Township have always been only border posts along the road. Obviously, such a defense facility cannot stop the real threat, and it is even difficult to play an early warning role. The old commander was well aware of this. The plain frost never relaxed the demands on the soldiers. They were guarding the front line of the ancestors all the time. So in just two days, with the full force of the legion, a fragile but complete line of defense had been It was gradually established.
"But these are not enough." Commander Jon whispered, he needs more information for the safety of the Legion and the town residents, but the scholars and staff in the Legion are helpless, so the next thing to ask for help There is only one object left. So when he heard that cheese appeared again, he came here for the first time.
Pushed open the door of the pub. The table where the cheese sits was very conspicuous. On the one hand, no one in the town dared to sit next to him. On the other hand, because there were too many things on his table. All kinds of meaty food are piled on the table like a hill, so Commander Jon can only speculate to determine which mysterious gray robe belongs to the non-stop grabbing food.
"I haven't seen you for a long time, Mr. Cheese." The old commander sat across the table, and the other guests in the tavern saw him coming in and consciously started to check out. Even if the northerners in the mountainous town have never joined the legion, there must be legion soldiers at home, so as military members, they should listen to those things, and they still know little about them. Although this does not prevent them from speculating in private what the commander said to the cheese.
The commander heard the commander's voice and responded enthusiastically.
"Hmm! Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ..."
"Ah, I think you still have to swallow the things in your mouth first." The commander said with a twitch in the corner of his eyes.
Listened to the cheese, and quickly put two pieces of meat into his mouth, stuffed his mouth full, and then began to chew uniformly. To be honest, Elsa was very suspicious of how he swallowed such a huge ball of food when he was watching him behind the bar. As for Commander Jon, I am thankful that his vision was blocked by Food Hill, and did not see this horrifying scene.
"Hiccups!" Swallowed all the food in his mouth, and the cheese burped abruptly. He waved his right hand, and the food on the table automatically floated and flew to the next table. This also allows Commander Jon to see the mage for a long time after seeing the cheese cast. At this time, the cheese is still a gray robe, but it may be for the convenience of eating. Most of the robe is opened behind the shoulders, and you can see that the left shoulder of the cheese is still wrapped with a thick bandage. The left arm of the cheese also hangs under the table, and only the right hand holds the fork.
"Are you injured?" Commander Jon frowned. Although he heard about the cheese monster, he did not expect that the cheese would suffer such a serious injury.
"It's okay, it's just a little injury. As you can see, the inconvenience of one hand doesn't affect me." Then he threw it away, and the fork in his hand made a series of stunts in the air and inserted it into the next table On the steak.
"I hope so, after all, I am afraid that your strength is of utmost importance in the current situation." Commander Jon nodded and accepted the mage's speech. After all, the cheese was not a soldier who charged forward with a knife and a gun.
"Okay, I know that time is pressing now, so I want to talk to you openly, and Elsa, come and listen. After all, I promised you before." The cheese said. The proprietress turned into a step from the bar counter and quickly sat down at the table, spitting her tongue out naughtyly under Commander Jon's blame.
"So, I'll start with who I am. Ha, it's really ironic. Originally, I wanted to compile something casually until three days ago. But what I discovered in these three days made me understand that I might have to With the help of the Frost Guard. "The cheese shrugged, but forgot the wound on the left shoulder, so the expression suddenly twisted a little under the stimulation of pain.
"As you can see, I am a spellcaster. That is the so-called mage. Although I personally feel that this definition is not rigorous, let's say it first."
Commander Jon and Elsa are taken for granted, after all, although the cheese has only released some spells that can be called tricks in the past few days, the identity of his caster is unquestionable.
"So, I would also like to say that I come from a mage organization that hides from the world, and even a little hides from the world, and the leader of this organization is my teacher." The cheese said.
"Your organization is north of the mountains?" Commander Jon asked.
"Yes, it's just that we can survive there but rely on the power of magic. UU reads www.uukanshu.com. That's why I said it's not universal. As for where we are in the north, I can't Make it clear. "This part of the truth was originally in the content that the cheese was going to confess, so he didn't hide much.
"Well, please continue." The mage's answer was as expected by the commander, Jon nodded and said.
"The reason why I came here is because my teacher gave me a task. Although he didn't say it clearly, I probably guessed the purpose of this task." The cheese said.
"You mean, what happened to the Earl of Saron is because of your teacher?" Elsa asked, frowning at the same time. If the teacher of the cheese put a Earl into such a great crisis for the trial, I'm afraid her impression of cheese is about to change.
"I'm afraid not, although my teacher has this ability, but I don't think he will pay such a big price for the trial." The cheese shakes his head, and he is not completely sure about this matter. In the eyes of his teacher, a little Earl's collar might not really be a concern. However, combined with the records of other seniors and elder sisters' adult trial tasks, he is more inclined to believe that his teacher only foresaw everything that would happen here, so he threw him on the stage of this drama.
"Well, you continue to say." Although there is no affirmative answer, Elsa can at least confirm that he did not know according to the reaction of the cheese. that's enough.
"The next is the results I have found in these three days. It can be said that this is the most important thing at this stage. Through these three days of physical research, I can probably determine ..."
Next, the cheese briefly introduced herself and Alina for three days to various tests of Gloria and the research results of the plague infecting her.
