Chapter 109 Kevin's Invitation

  According to this man, his name is Kevin, and he is a nobleman. He just came here through the forest of Middenheim, trying to tell the lord here a terrible news.

   "There are dead people haunting the forest."

  Kevin held the long sword in his hand, leaned on the chair, with a wine glass in his hand, squinting his eyes like an old man who was leaning against the fireplace and about to take a nap. Even if there were two alcoholics next to him trying to prove who was the strongest alcoholic, it didn't move him in the slightest.

"This year's harvest is very good, but I haven't waited for the nearby villages to pay me the food that I should pay, so I planned to check the situation, but in the forest, I met a hunter, his face was pale, Seriously wounded, he told me that his village was attacked by Beastmen. But those were no ordinary Beastmen, they seemed to be some kind of undead creatures bound by an evil undead spell, his village was destroyed, and only this Orion escaped After a catastrophe, I tried to try to treat him, but he died in the end."

   Speaking of this, Kevin sighed.

"Later, I followed his path and found the village, but there was no one there, only charred ruins. There were not even corpses. There was blood on the ground, and there were stumps, but there was no one. corpses, as if the corpses had grown legs and ran away."

   Duanmu Huai sat at the table, listening to Kevin's narration in silence. On the other hand, An showed a somewhat scared expression. After all...it sounds too much like a ghost story.

"I went to other villages in my territory to investigate, only to find that most of the villages there were empty, and they all disappeared without anyone noticing, leaving nothing behind. I think something is wrong , so I went back to Orion again, and I found that even that Orion had disappeared..."

   "———!"

  Hearing this, An trembled, and grabbed Duanmu Huai's cloak. Augis next to her was stunned when she saw Ann's actions, then imitated her hand and grabbed the other side of the cloak.

"Fortunately, there were footprints in the snow, and I followed them, and soon found the hunter—he was dead, but he was still going. He seemed to be following some strange voice, and then I saw It's..."

   Speaking of this, Kevin's voice gradually lowered, just like all ghost storytellers react when they tell a critical moment.

"An army of undead souls, led by an evil necromancer, shuttled silently through the forest. Among them were humans and beastmen. But now they have all become bloodthirsty, undead souls .They roam the mountains and the forests, and no one knows where this army of the dead is going, but I think... we have a chance to find out."

   "So you mean, you want us to investigate this undead army with you?"

  After listening to Kevin's narration, Duan Muhuai stared at him, and asked silently. The latter smiled and nodded.

"I have already reported this matter to the lord, but unfortunately, it is winter now, it is not suitable to send a large army to search outside, and we have to guard against the raids of those Chaos minions in the north, so the lord can't help me, so I came here Coming here, I hope to find some powerful warriors to track down and destroy this undead army raging in my territory together with me. This is the deposit."

While talking, Kevin stretched out his hand, took out a small pocket from his pocket, and put it on the table. Although he didn't fully open the pocket, Duanmuhuai could still see the flames reflected from the gold coins from the opening of the pocket. bright.

   "However, I also have a problem. For example, you don't look like a nobleman."

   "Our family tradition is martial arts for all people."

  Kevin's expression didn't change at all.

   "Besides, in this northern region, convenience comes first."

"Oh well."

  Duanmuhuai reached out and took the money bag. In fact, he was almost certain that this man named Kevin was most likely the missing emperor.

Why? The reason is simple, this is the first time this guy saw his face without changing his face.

  Based on Duanmuhuai's experience, basically, those who can not change face or heartbeat when meeting him for the first time are all big shots. For example, the two princesses Ann and Guleya, as well as their father, are like this. Of course, this can also prove from the side that the bigger the person, the stronger the mind.

  If Kevin is just as he said, a small local nobleman, then he might have gasped in shock when he saw Duanmu Huai's face. Didn't anyone dare to look at him without seeing the whole tavern? This guy actually dared to take the initiative to talk to him?

  Of course, if it is wrong, then this Kevin did not break his hand, but this does not explain anything. Assuming that the emperor really faked his death, he could find a hand on the battlefield and put on his gauntlet. This is not too difficult, and it can also divert the attention of those pursuers.

  After all, if other people are looking for a person who has lost an arm, they will naturally turn a blind eye to the person with two hands.

   It's just that Duanmu Huai didn't expect to meet him so soon... Forget it, at least the mission has been triggered, right?

  As the elf scouts said, if this is the emperor, then Sigmar is still protecting the country.

  If this is not the emperor, then Sigma is blind.

   Anyway, it's not my fault, so go smash the Temple of Sigma if you have a problem.

   Duanmu Huai turned away these thoughts for a moment, then stretched out his hand to put the money bag away.

   "But you will come to me for help, which really surprised me. I thought you would regard me as a believer of evil gods."

   "Hehehe, you really know how to joke, this gentleman."

  Hearing what Duanmuhuai said, the man chuckled.

"Maybe you are indeed a bit vicious, but you can tell from the two beauties beside you that you are definitely not a believer in the God of Tyranny. After all, those lunatics don't appreciate anything other than blood, death, and muscles. And as As for the believers of the God of Desire...you don't seem to fit their aesthetics, as for the God of Disease and Deceit...I don't think I need to say more."

   "Okay, I'll just accept your argument."

   Duanmuhuai shrugged.

   "So, when are we leaving?"

   "If there is no problem, we will gather at the gate of the city tomorrow morning. At that time, I will introduce other companions to you. After all, this is not an easy task. I still need to find more people."

"Oh well."

   Duanmu Huai stood up and stretched out his hand to Kevin.

"I hope we can cooperate happily."
