Academic Gathering with Lich Colleagues

Chapter 35 Choices
After separating from Lyle, William ran non-stop towards Rafaelin.

When I got the book, I knew it, I knew it for a long time, that the mysterious road to madness was not easy.

One's own friends dwindle, die unexpectedly, encounter unforeseen circumstances, withdraw disheartened, or twist into a stranger.William has seen a lot of tragedies, and Lyle is only a small part, he doesn't know if he is the next one.

But he won't stop, he has sacrificed so much that he needs and deserves to be rewarded.Roughly tore open the pocket of his jacket, and found a small tin box of himself, which contained candy chips.It was a habit formed as a child. When William was nervous, he would always use sweetness to suppress his panic, and this time was no exception.

The taste buds experience the sweetness, the brain enjoys the bitterness, and in the balance of the body, William has turned back into a gentleman who is flattered.

There is a high probability that he will not be able to save Lyle, only sheep will enter the tiger's mouth. Rafaelin's giant wolf is beyond his estimation. If it is an ordinary ghost dog, William still has some exorcism charms to protect the two, but that giant wolf. The first moment the wolf appeared, William knew that he was wrong, and it was outrageous, and the deadly malice hit his inspiration like a wave.The more I know, the more I fear, and the idea of ​​invincibility is etched in my heart.The fear of death awakened the little man in him, which kept screaming in William's ear and instructing William with snarky orders.

"Put that Muggle down so that beast will let us go!"

"Break that kid's leg so we can run faster than him!"

"Wait for him to get close, let him understand the gap between us and mortals!"

One bad idea overflows from the shadow of human nature, and I have been favored by luck many times, but not necessarily this time.

Just after Lyle lured the enemy, the guilt turned into a heavy shackle, and William couldn't breathe. He was almost unable to breathe, but he and the villain in his heart made a turn.

It yelled loudly.

"You coward, look at you, when you were thinking about conspiracy and tricks, your friend chose to sacrifice, you useless coward, how shameless, let you choose to live!"

Just when he was attacked by shame and bruised all over, sugar made his brain choose to calm down.

I'm just a mortal.

My choice is my instinct, instinct, no right or wrong, kindness, a luxury I can't have.

Feeling like an icy machine, William confirmed that the rucksack for storing the herbs was the only reward for the trip.

Yes, not including those fifty jules.

William must also hide from Ralph to prevent him from pursuing Lyle's whereabouts. Now, immediately return to Lavron, go back day and night, go back to Cassandale, take all his things, and leave.

Fate played a little joke with him.

Let him get rid of the giant wolf, but brought a hunting wolf.

ralph.

He hid in the bushes to one side, watching William's figure running out of the swamp, breathing heavily, stuffing the unknown flakes into his mouth, returning to ease like a drug addict.

He watched all this coldly.

From the blind spot of William's vision, he approached him.

Mental paralysis made William ignore the hunter.

Until Ralph's palms grabbed his shoulders like tongs.

"William."

"Ha...ha...ha...Mr. Ralph, I was caught by you. I'm sorry, please don't deduct my pay."

"Where's Lyle?"

"Huh? Lyle, Lyle was waiting at the crime scene, and I sneaked out while he wasn't looking."

"Lyle is a smart kid, and he wouldn't be so careless as to let you go. Did anyone tell you, Mr. Dorgit, how clumsy your lying skills are, especially in the eyes of a criminal investigation sheriff. where?"

Looking at Ralph's bloodshot eyes, William had never seen anyone's eyes look so terrifying, as if he was choosing someone to devour.Inner guilt was the last straw.

"Lyle...was caught by...the giant wolf."

William's confession worked, Ralph let go of his grip, his mood was no longer irritable, and he returned to the gloom of the past, but this gloom and Rafaelin's silence were mixed together, making it even more gloomy.

An object was taken out by Ralph with lightning speed and pressed against William's throat.

The coldness of the iron crawled up William's back.

"You are Ba Jin's apprentice, you know what this is."

"Yes...Dragon Kiss."

It was the oldest firearm, even if it was old, this firearm would be rampant in the Middle Ages when cold weapons were prevalent.

"Bajin does have some skills. This... I prefer to call it a musket. It was originally designed to hunt giant wolves. I added special ammunition to it. As long as the trigger is pulled, those small iron pieces will come out of that small hole. It spews out, rubs your neck, and blooms in your brain. Want to try it?"

"Relph, you actually took the weapon Ba Jin gave you and faced his apprentice!"

"Don't say you're just old Ba Jin's apprentice, you despicable and vile bastard! Even old Ba Jin, if he dares to throw Lyle in a rotten swamp for the giant wolf to grind his teeth, and he runs out and gasps in front of me , I'll still... no, I'll shove this musket he built into his stinky mouth and blow him to pieces in front of me!"

"I can explain that it was Lyle who volunteered to divert the giant wolf away."

"You think I'll believe your illogical nonsense, that a rookie incompetent doctor and sheriff would bait a magician who can do tricks! Stupid bastard, your mental retardation is as ridiculous as your hypocrisy."

"I'm telling the truth!"

"Shut up, you are insulting my IQ, forget it, I'll shut you up."

"Enough! That's just one of your colleagues. Don't you want to live your life when you meet a giant wolf! It's not my fault!"

"I will inscribe on your tombstone, stubborn Dorgit. Listen, my full name is Ralph Buller, and Lyle is not only my descendant, but my nephew, my only My dear, even if I want my life, even if I want my soul, I will choose Lyle! Now, I will kill you, then kill the giant wolf, and bury Lyle with him."

"Calm down! Please calm down! Mr. Ralph!"

"No, I won't let you bastard live one more second, take one more breath of air!"

…………

Lyle felt screwed.

After leaving Chai Chai's nest, following Chai Chai's guidance, he arrived at Lafayette smoothly.

He saw William kneeling on the ground. He seemed to be playing the Shawshank redemption. Is escaping from the wolf's mouth so worth celebrating?Seeing him frozen like a wooden man, Lyle planned to go up and say hello.

Ralph showed up.

Lyle chose to hide.Faced with Ralph's anger, his own actions made his legs tremble, and the reed pedals were a little unstable. Let William help me attract firepower.

Maybe Ralph roared for a while, and his anger died down.

Things were unexpected, Ralph accurately exposed William's lies, and convicted William with a set of logical inferences.

Lyle miscalculated his place in Ralph's heart.

Ralph planned to skip the trial and execute him on the spot. Although Lyle was a little surprised by the appearance of the musket, he had seen gamma-ray bursts, which is not bad.

The problem now is that Ralph's anger increases instead of diminishing. The flames will burn William to death. As soon as he comes out, William will be fine, but he will be in trouble.

So, is it worth it to keep a William safe?

Lyle stuffed some reeds into his clothes, especially his hips, hoping they would give some strength.

Jump out of the reeds.

"Yo, it's so lively!"
