Annihilated Lilith

Chapter 4 4. Bonaken

Although monsters, monsters, and warcraft have slightly different titles due to different regions, they all refer to those magical creatures on the Duma continent that will attack humans and are unwilling to coexist peacefully with humans.Some of them are particularly powerful and even possess intelligence no less than that of humans.

It may not be right to say this, because Grandma O'Hara once told Emma that the wisdom of ancient dragons is far beyond that of humans. They can fly when they are born, and they can recite powerful spells in dragon language.Magic seems to be deeply engraved in their bone marrow and blood, and they are born knowing it.

Of course, the ancient dragon has not appeared in the world for a long time, red dragon, black dragon, and the most powerful golden dragon.

They disappeared suddenly, and when people realized it, they could only occasionally hear news about the appearance of dragons without independent forelimbs, such as green dragons, white dragons, and petite brass dragons.Although they are extremely destructive, they can only emit dragon chant and magic breath from their mouths.

The castles of nobles are usually equipped with knights and troops, and the top paladins are also given exclusive magic weapons when they are appointed, which are extremely powerful.Some nobles will also recruit warlocks to stay in the castle, but usually the mana is not particularly powerful, more like a consultant or a doctor.

So, to force the nobles to give up such a big castle, how powerful must the monsters that came to attack it be?
"Don't worry, silly boy. We have walked this road countless times. As long as we strictly follow the plan and stay in the inn every day, there will be no safety problems."

Seeing that Emma was thinking, the businessman's wife thought she was frightened, so she hurriedly comforted her.

Emma was a little embarrassed, and she didn't want to explain further. She just smiled at her, turned her head and continued to look at the scenery outside the car window.

……

The post station that arrived in the evening of the first day was far away from the hustle and bustle and was built in an open river valley.Green mountains and green valleys, gurgling rivers, and four miles away from the nearest forest.There is a tall log wall outside the post station, with a sharpened top and guard towers on all sides, which looks heavily guarded.

Emma's carriage was almost at the end of the line, and by the time she got off the carriage, the people in the luxurious carriage had already gone upstairs to settle down.

I still haven't seen it, the mysterious escort.

Emma looked around, and there was an exquisite vegetable garden in the yard, carefully planned, and it seemed that a small part had just been picked.There were only three goats, but two of them appeared to be pregnant.There are quite a few chickens and ducks, and they run around in the yard, full of life, but be careful not to step on their excrement.

"A separate room has been arranged for you, which was specially instructed by Mr. William."

A businessman came over and spoke to Emma with a smile.He seemed to be the husband of the woman who spoke to Emma before, and after speaking, he stepped forward to help his wife carry the luggage, looking very stable.

"The food will be delivered to the room later, you can go up first. There is a thick soup at the post station, and I have some snacks that I brought with me here. Now go to the kitchen to distribute it."

The businessman's wife points to the basket in her husband's hand.It was only then that Emma remembered that she could smell the aroma of baked snacks along the way.The caravan only eats two meals a day, and she is really hungry now.

……

The supper was simple and not very tasty, but Emma ate it well, scraping the soup-basin clean with her spoon.

Naturally, there was nothing planned after the meal, and the sound of a man's snoring soon came from the next door.Emma was not used to going to bed so early, so she drew the curtains and lit the oil lamp to read.Fortunately, grandma had taught her the technique of making the oil lamp brighter, so that it would not hurt the eyes.

Because the plot of the novel is too exciting, I saw the late night without knowing it.

Emma covered the lamp and got ready for bed.At this moment, something suddenly felt wrong.

Is... Mosu is restless?

Magic element is the element of magic, which is distributed in the air like particles, but it is relatively thin.Feeling the existence of magic element is the first lesson in learning magic.After training to a certain level, it will naturally be very sensitive to changes in the concentration of magic essence.

Strong magic essence indicates that someone is casting a spell nearby, or... a magical creature has appeared.

Emma put on her clothes, went downstairs slowly by the moonlight, and came to the yard lightly.

There are no lights in the courtyard, only the ever-burning torches on the sentry tower.But at this time, the torches in the east and north directions were all extinguished.Just when Emma was feeling strange, the torches to the west were suddenly extinguished.

Shall we wake up the caravan?Emma hesitated, it was her first time traveling with a team, and she didn't know if it was strange.

"Shh..."

Someone whispered in her ear, and Emma opened her mouth wide in fright, screaming stuck in her throat.But she didn't call out, not because she had good self-control, but because the other party used a clever restraining spell.

"Are you the girl who is going to Turin College?"

The man looked at Emma and asked in a low voice with a smile.

Emma nodded, and then felt her throat loosen, the restriction was released.

"who are you?"

The man had thick black curly hair and delicate black eyes, and his skin was olive-colored even in the dark.He was very handsome, with a natural smile on his lips.The night breeze was a bit cool, but he was only wearing a white shirt and shorts, showing two slender and clean legs.

"I... um... I can be regarded as the demon hunter accompanying the team."

"Nonsense, I've seen demon hunters, and they wouldn't dress like you at all."

Emma had indeed seen a witcher, and even a witcher had stayed in her woodshed.They are professional monster hunters. They have tempered their bodies with mysterious magic potions since childhood to become stronger and sharper.

Usually demon hunters wear tight leather clothes and carry two long swords on their backs, one made of fine steel and the other made of mithril.

"Tsk, whoever tells a witcher has to be sloppy."

Emma frowned. Although this person was dressed cleanly, the shorts are usually worn by children... Anyway, he is definitely not a witcher, but a liar.

"I said, do you want to watch something exciting?"

The man pointed to the only southern sentry tower that was still on fire.

"What? What do you want?"

Emma tightened the collar around her body.

"What are you afraid of? If you are so timid, how could you become a witch?"

The man grinned, revealing a set of straight white teeth.He pulled Emma's hand and held it tightly. Emma suddenly felt lighter, as if she had lost her original weight.Then he bent his knees and jumped on the spot, and Emma followed him and flew up lightly.

That's right, it flew up. Although it was just a jumping movement, it was very slow and light, as if it was flying.

In an instant, the two landed on the sentry tower.The man let go of Emma, ​​raised his hand to his lips, and blew lightly, and the torch was extinguished just like that.

"Where are the guards? Where are the guards?"

"Hush, don't make a sound, I told them to go to rest."

The man put his index finger to his lips and made another silent gesture.

Next, he stared at the outside of the wall, and said after a while: "Here we come."

At the corner of the wall, a red light gradually appeared, and the sound of heavy stepping on the mud could be vaguely heard.Not long after, a monster revealed its huge head.

It has a mane like a horse, and the rest of its body is similar to that of a cow, but the horns are very curved, almost curling up close to the back.Emma could accurately judge its size when it got under the sentry tower. It was about the size of four...no...five adult bulls.

As it moved forward slowly, it tried to slam into the fence lightly, as if it was judging the bearing capacity of the log, and was ready to charge in at any time.At this moment, Emma smelled a burnt smell like burning hay, and upon closer inspection, she found that there were smoke slowly coming out of its nostrils and anus.And on the fence that the smoke touches, dots of fire will appear immediately.

"I haven't seen it, this is Bonaken."

The man smiled even more, as if the Bonaken belonged to him.
