Son of the Olden Days

Chapter 108: Murder in the end

The teleportation scroll Thor knows, and the relevant knowledge comes from a book that introduces magical items.

Strictly speaking, the real name of this reel is called ‘Random Teleport Reel’. There are two types, one is short-distance teleportation and the other is long-distance teleportation. Short-distance is very expensive, long-distance is very cheap.

In theory, when you want to escape from the enemy and danger, the farther the better, but why is it cheaper for a long distance than a short distance? The reason is stability.

After the short-distance random teleportation scrolls are torn apart, with the caster as the center, the radius of action will probably cover the size of an ordinary town. In other words, if you tear the scroll in the center of the city, it is likely to appear randomly somewhere in the city.

But the long-distance reel is hard to say, its coverage may have been facing the entire continent or even farther.

This means that once the long-distance teleportation reel is torn apart, you have no idea where you will appear. It's possible on the edge of a cliff, in the deep sea, in a swamp, in the depths of the desert, or even in a ferocious orc tribe.

Therefore, people who are truly knowledgeable often choose short-distance teleportation scrolls as a means of escape.

Of course, short-distance teleportation reels may not be without disadvantages, and there is still a small probability or luck problem.

Sol once saw a joke in a book called "Magic Tragedy".

At that time, a man was surrounded by many enemies, and then he decisively tore up the short-distance teleportation and escaped. As a result, he was very lucky. The next moment he appeared directly in front of the enemy, and before he had time to react, the enemy raised his hand and wiped his neck.

Ivan's luck was good. After the scroll was torn apart, he should have appeared somewhere in Grayscreen Town or in a certain laneway, which was also the source of Thor's troubles.

Saul is not worried that he will come to him, but he is afraid that Ivan will be completely mad because of the death of his subordinates, and Irene may be in danger. So after leaving the mayor’s residence, Sol immediately went to Irene’s house.

Theoretically, Evan just met Irene, and it is unlikely that he would want to inquire about Irene’s residence in a haste based on Irene’s appearance alone.

But in order to eliminate the slightest possibility, Saul came here for the first time. He wanted to find Irene as soon as possible and let her and her family hide first.

Standing in front of Irene's house, Thor bit his head and knocked on the door.

Guilt, sorrow..., all kinds of emotions rolled in Saul's heart. Now that Cowell is still sleeping in the cemetery, he really doesn't know what expression and words to face Irene, or her family members such as her father and mother.

There was a knock on the door for a long time, and no response was received. Thor stepped back two steps, and there was no light in the room.

Looks like someone is not there?

At the same time that he was relieved, Saul felt a little suspicious in his heart.

After carefully sorting out today's timeline, I returned to the Tombkeeper's Hut near noon and saw the clues left by Shuggs. He rushed to the Ranger Hut and Shuggs was back in the afternoon with Cowell's body on his back.

Counting that Irene came to find herself in the afternoon, after she tricked Irene away with vicious words, it was already night, but it was not late at night.

In theory, at this point in time, Irene should have someone at home. Even if a certain family member is absent, there shouldn’t be no one at all. So where did she and her family go?

After guessing without a direction for a while, Saul no longer struggled, and the absence of people might not be bad news.

——————

The dark calendar early summer of July 16th, the first week of April, Lei Yaori, overcast.

An oil lamp lit up in the dark wilderness, without any cover, just stubbornly shining in the boundless darkness. Sol was sitting in a chair by the oil lamp, with one leg curled up on the other, bowing his head to wind his short bow.

The whereabouts of Yiwen seem to be invisible, but it is not difficult to guess.

After using the scroll to teleport to a place in Grayscreen Town, he should first touch back to the mayor’s mansion, hide in secret to observe the situation, and see if there is a lucky man who can be rescued.

After that, whether it was sad or furious, between the two goals of himself and the mayor, he would definitely come to himself first.

In order to avoid the second-tier Yiwen running around causing more unknowable variables, Sol went directly to the wilderness, sat in the light, and waited.

As for how Ivan came, he might walk over the wall of the town towards the tombkeeper's hut, or hide in his hood and come from the north gate. In short, the general direction is the same.

"At the very end, are you going to face me with that toy? Are you not afraid that I will jump on you and pinch you to death?" Yiwen's voice suddenly came from the darkness beyond the oil lamp, a little hoarse.

Saul's gaze condensed, and after distinguishing the direction of Ivan, Saul secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then smiled.

"Push up directly? No, that's obviously not your style. I think I still know you a little bit. For people like you, perhaps temporary sadness will make you raise your head and scream, but soon you will come back. In your stubborn reason."

The dark wilderness and the bright oil lamp, under this sharp contrast, according to Ivan's suspicious character, there is a high probability that he will not directly pounce on it, as long as he still has a trace of reason.

He smiled calmly on his face, but Thor's heart was tense, and the soles of his feet were ready to roll back and flee to the wilderness at any time.

The yellow halo of the oil lamp spreads out on the ground for a whole circle. During this visible distance, Sol believes that with the strength of the second-order Yiwen, the speed is definitely faster than himself, but it is not at an inhuman speed. At the moment calmly chattering.

"Speaking as if you know me well." Evan laughed angrily.

Sol put the short bow in his hand on the table to the side, and then spread out his hands in a chair.

"Let's tell a story, then. My sister and my sister attended a family funeral at the same time and met a good and handsome man at the funeral. After a few days, my sister died."

This sounded like an inexplicable story, with no head or tail in a few words, but Ivan fell silent after Saul finished speaking.

"It was my sister who killed my sister because she wanted to own the man alone... Well, no, let me think about it, it shouldn't be the reason for this superficiality." A moment later, Yiwen's whispering voice came from the darkness. .

Sol's index finger drew a circle silently on the table, waiting quietly.

After a while, after scanning the magic hourglass on his wrist, Thor finally stood up.

"Just stop here, don't worry, you still have a lot of time, you can stay with your brother and think slowly." Sol said.

As if responding to Saul's words, Ivan fell to the ground in the darkness.

——————

When Yiwen recovered from the deep numbness, he found that he was buried in the soil, with only his head exposed, and the pain from his hands and feet was obviously broken.

Sol is squatting next to him, brushing his face with a brush...

Oh, it seems to be honey, mixed with other things with a strange smell, Yiwen subconsciously licked the corner of his mouth, and then sipped to the side.

"When did you poison him?" Evan stared at Saul closely, with deep fear in his voice.

"Poisoned? I didn't poisoned. It's just that you came from the wrong direction. You happened to walk into the Sea of ​​Soul Eaters, stayed for a while and chatted with me for a while, and then they attacked you."

"Soul Eater, also called Abyss Demon Vine, you should have heard of it from your experience, my paralysis powder comes from it."

"It's not quite right to say that they are flowers. I usually don't notice that they look like weeds in the wilderness. I transplanted all the soul eater flowers I could find together. That's why the sea of ​​flowers came from."

"This kind of plant is very passive. When creatures enter their territory, their attacks will come slowly. Fortunately, their attacks are very secretive, just like the bite of a mosquito. You will realize that you have been bitten by a mosquito."

"This plant has a good appetite. About two days after you fall, all your internal organs and flesh will melt into nutrients and be sucked. In the end, only skins are left. So in the end I saved you and dragged you out. "

While waving the brush Thor and Ivan chatted, listening to Thor's nonsense, Ivan laughed and coughed violently.

"Since you have a back hand, why don't you use it when you come back from the wilderness with the corpse on your back." Ivan asked hoarsely.

Saul shook his head again.

"Strictly speaking, this is not even a trap, because it is too passive and the trigger requirements are too demanding. After all, this sea of ​​flowers has a limited area and cannot swallow yours."

"Even if I can attract you to chase, the eight of you come in a slightly slanted direction, or stand apart from each other, that's another ending."

"Even if you are lucky enough to numb more than half of you, once two or three people are missed, the result is not something we can bear. Shuggs and I don't care about fighting, but our beloved friends may suffer. I don't dare. bet."

"In fact, this sea of ​​flowers is just the first hurdle I prepared for you. There are some other decorations beside the creek behind. If you are lucky, you can leave two or three people. These decorations were implemented as early as the second month after your brother died. It’s ready, but I’m not sure if it’s useful."

"So, in order to kill you, I am planting flowers and digging holes. In fact, it is not easy for me."

"Even so, your brother still lost his woman." Evan laughed.

"Yes, this result was too painful, so in the final analysis none of us won." Sol nodded.

Now that it has reached the end, and now there is a conversation atmosphere, Yiwen asked the question he cared most.

"What did you say to the old man Elton when you entered the mayor's mansion?"

"It's a long story, but I guess you may not have time to finish it, so let's not say it."

"Then tell me what you have arranged by the stream in the back? I try to imagine it." Yiwen asked again.

"People like you have too many questions, and I think it's the best revenge to let you die with a few doubts." Sol replied.

"Well, the story you told before, at least the answer should you tell me?" Yiwen stretched his neck in the soil.

"I obviously mentioned it to delay time." Saul tilted his head and glanced at Ivan.

"But I think there must be an answer." Yiwen insisted.

"Well, my sister has never seen that good and handsome man in the family, so she thinks she can only see him at the family funeral. So she killed her sister so that the family has a new funeral." Saul said.

"She...I'm afraid she's sick!?" Yiwen stared, his whole body shocked as if he was about to come out of the soil.

"The various forms of sentient beings sound incredible, but this kind of human nature exists, and I have even seen it even more distorted." Sol finally replied.
