Chapter 180 The Homeless Corpse

  …

   Zeller heard the words and said in a deep voice:

   "If such terrible things really exist in this world, then their appearance is a disaster."

  Richard unconsciously took the cane off the shelf again, and he tapped his palm with one end, with a solemn and terrifying tone:

   "This is the case. In the Age of Enlightenment, once the ability of the Thousand Changeers was exposed, even the gods who were the enemies of the God of Murder before, together with other gods exiled Jiasi Liwen, who had occupied the magpie's nest."

  "This ability to replace is too crazy. As long as there is a slight disturbance, an unstoppable tragedy will be brewed. People will often fall into a cycle of killing each other because they cannot be trusted."

"In history, some people even intentionally released the news that the Thousand Changelings are about to recover, to disrupt the situation in a region. But as long as the seal of the night elves is not loose, people can breathe a sigh of relief, but it is different now. Although the Eversong Forest is kept secret, But as far as I know, a small number of people have already grasped the secret."

"The cloud of war in the south has accumulated to a critical point. It only needs a fuse, and the chaos may be out of control. Apart from worrying about the situation in Rolling Stone Town, I am more worried about whether someone will use this to make a big fuss .”

  The rain is about to come.

  Matthew rubbed his temples with a headache.

  Life is so wonderful.

  In the first two years he traveled here, he planted trees every day, and he didn't see any changes in this world.

   Just got the bone dragon reward, not long after, the omens of big events came one after another.

  He was a little numb.

   "Since Jiasi Liwen is sealed, it means that the ability of the thousand changer is not perfect, and there must be flaws."

   Matthew said.

   Richard shook his head:

"The changer has almost no flaws, at least I haven't found a way to distinguish a changer who has deprived others of his identity. The reason why Jiasi Liwen was exposed was because a descendant of the changer risked being killed. The risk is that this matter will be made public."

  Matthew said in surprise:

   "The descendant of the thousand changers? Is it the child of Jiasi Liwen?"

  Richard pondered with a complex expression:

   "It's hard to use children to describe the relationship between those descendants and Jiasi Liwen.

  He is a demon, a naturally conceived demon bathed in astral light and cosmic rays.

  He has no concept of civilized racial etiquette and shame.

   In order to continue their own blood.

  Before Jiasi Liwen entered the heavenly realm, she had **** with males of hundreds of races, impregnated them, and gave birth after three months of pregnancy.

Yes.

  The original blood of the thousand changers crawled out of their father's belly.

  There are nearly two hundred of them in total.

   was Jiasi Liwen's closest servant when she infiltrated Tianlun Palace.

  However, Jiasi Liwen was not satisfied with their abilities.

  He always felt that these bloodborn were too weak.

   So in the next few decades.

  He crossed back with these descendants one after another.

  Whether male or female, He can conceive and produce more offspring.

   This cycle repeats.

  The thousand changer group can reach thousands of people at its largest number.

  They were supposed to be Jiasi Liwen's most loyal children, lovers, servants and warriors.

  However, some Catheters develop human-like emotions in contact with mortals.

   Especially one of them, he had unprecedented possessiveness towards Jiasi Liwen.

  After a failed confession.

  He went completely crazy and told the secret of the Thousand Changes to the public, which led to the discovery of Jiasi Liwen's existence.

  Hundreds of years after that.

  The thousand changers group was slaughtered.

  The informer became an angel of Tianlun Palace instead.

   But under the promise and protection of this angel.

  Some of the thousand changers self-sealed the ability to change, and then silently multiplied in various parts of the multiverse.

  The gods also discovered that the power of all the thousand changers comes from Jiasi Liwen, and it is meaningless to hunt and kill these people, as long as the source is controlled.

  So gradually, the descendants of the thousand changers also spread branches and leaves on this land like other races.

  But no one thought that one day the gods of Tianlun Palace would be exiled.

  Even though the night elves in Eversong Forest are dedicated to their duties, they are still secretive.

   I worry that the attack on Gosti Prison is just a prelude.

  If Sener really intends to release Jiasi Liwen, the evil power he can gather is beyond imagination. "

   Speaking of which.

  Richard sighed heavily:

   "I should have killed him."

   "Then go and kill Sener, I really should have done that long ago."

he?

   Matthew's heart moved:

   "Do you have any doubts about the changer in your mind?"

  Richard's lips moved, but he still uttered the name firmly:

   "Sitrenk!"

  Matthew suddenly remembered that night on the **** north of the Scar of the Dead, the lunatic who threw the corpse down and claimed to be the new leader of the Silver Frost Brotherhood.

   That person is the disciple of the legendary rogue Sener, Saitrunk.

   That group of people was handled by Richard.

   However, due to some personal reasons, Richard finally let Saitrenk go.

   "Didn't you say that Setrunk promised never to enter Rolling Stone Town again?"

   Zeller asked.

  Richard smiled wryly:

   "I believed his promise, but if he really has been following Sener after leaving Jade Cangting, then it is not uncommon for him to backtrack on me.

  Scarlet Hunter Sener has always been known for being despicable and unscrupulous.

  He's the scum of the rogues and the real culprit!

  I suspect that it was when the kid Satrunk was hanging out with Sener that the latter discovered the blood of the changer in his body, and then there was the incident of Sener attacking the Gaussian Prison half a year ago.

  Although Satrunk quit Rolling Stone Town after being warned by me.

   But if he really awakens the ability of the depriver, he can completely replace any familiar face in Rolling Stone Town, and then slowly approach the target he wants to approach.

   We know so little about deprivers that I now suspect almost everyone. "

  Zeller said calmly:

  "Before there is no conclusive evidence, any suspicion will only add to the confusion.

  I believe that although the ability of the thousand changers is very strong, there must be limitations.

   If he is really that powerful, why doesn't he become a legendary mage?

   Obviously, not because he didn't want to, but because he couldn't.

  Similarly, I don’t think people who are strong enough themselves will be transformed by the ritual of the thousand changers.

  At least the few of us can trust each other. "

  Richard took a deep breath:

   "You're right, I can't wait to see you."

  Matthew asked softly:

   "What is the relationship between Satrunk and you?"

   "And Sener, you don't look like a stranger to him."

   Richard shook his head:

   "I have already told you about the identity of Setrunk. He is the son of my old friend. I know that he is the descendant of the Thousand Changes, but I didn't expect him to awaken his ability.

  The reason why he was fostered in the village of the wood elves at the beginning was also to hope that he would have a better growth environment.

   What happened next was far beyond my control.

  Whether it's for the old man or the child of Setrenk, I am full of guilt and helplessness.

  I really shouldn’t have let him go when we met last time. Knowing that he followed Sen’er on an evil path, I should have imprisoned him immediately.

Why!

  As for Sener, I am not very familiar with him. Among the legendary rogues, he is my junior, and I have met him several times in the Shadowlands.

  I only know that he takes pleasure in slaughtering civilians, and it is very likely that he holds the remnant godhead of the murder **** in his hand.

   This guy has been plotting horrific killings.

  By the way, I also heard that he has an unusual relationship with Fan Zijue of Ravenloft Demon Realm. The latter is also a figure who has been in the limelight in the shadow world and the underworld in recent years.

  I don’t know much about others, after all, I haven’t walked on the road for many years. "

   Both Matthew and Zeller fell into deep thought after listening.

after awhile.

  Matthew said slowly:

   "If it is certain that Sitrenke did it, then he must have a purpose in lurking into Rolling Stone Town."

"Do you still remember that the sorcerers of the Scourge took away Sif? In a sense, the Scourge and the Silver Frost Brotherhood went hand in hand, and the bloodline of the Blood Banner Kingdom seems to have a very important meaning to them." significance."

   "So Sif and Rhaegar should be the ones we need to focus on protecting."

   Zeller quickly agreed:

   "Your analysis is correct. Sif may indeed become their target again. I suggest letting her follow you first—this will be the case until Rhaegar comes back."

  Matthew froze for a moment:

   "Is this appropriate?"

   Zeller said seriously:

   "There are many people in Rolling Stone Town. If Setrunk becomes a member of the Lord's Mansion, things will be difficult to control."

   "But you are different, you are a necromancer surrounded by zombies and skeletons."

  Richard also nodded and said:

   "The thousand changers really can't deprive the identity of the dead."

   "From this perspective, the necromancer seems to be the nemesis of the thousand changers."

   Matthew thought about it, and it seems that this is the only way.

  But is it really good for Sif, a young girl, to live with her in the cemetery at a young age?

  Facing Matthew's doubts.

   Zeller just shrugged:

   "Very moment."

   "I don't think Sif will refuse."

  Matthew sighed:

   "I'm worried about Rhaegar."

  At this time, Mrs. Wesley came over with three cups of coffee. She put down the coffee and joked:

   "Don't worry, Rhaegar is not such a jealous child."

  Matthew was silent.

   After a while.

  He said to Richard:

   "Are there many changers in the southern land?"

  Richard pondered:

   "There are quite a few, but it can't be called many. The important thing is that the number of awakened thousand changers is very small."

   "After the group of thousand changers integrated into human society, their bloodlines were severely diluted. Only a very small number of guys with amazing aptitude could initially awaken and master the ability to change into other people's appearance."

  Matthew coughed:

   "Speaking of which, there happens to be such a changer in my woods."

  Richard's eyes lit up:

"real?"

  Matthew nodded uncertainly:

   "Should be true."

  Richard immediately urged:

   "Hurry up and take me to see it!"

  The three rushed to the oak forest in a hurry.

  However, the little white cat has always been elusive.

  The three of them walked around the woods. Matthew even used the power of the domain, but he didn't find her.

   "If it's not on the ground, it must be underground!"

  Holding such an idea.

   The three of Matthew searched the cemetery, but they didn't find the little white cat!

   "Strange, where did this guy go?"

   Matthew went around and came to the kitchen of the cemetery.

  He looked at Peggy who was studying the recipe, and couldn't help asking:

   "Do you know where Qiuka is?"

   Without raising her head, Peggy picked up a rice bowl next to her and tapped the stool twice.

   Bang bang bang bang bang!

  The loud voice spread to every corner of the cemetery.

   After a few seconds.

  A figure rushed into the kitchen with a whoosh.

   That is a girl in very cool clothes.

   She walked and shouted:

   "Is the meal ready?"

   "Can't be mushrooms anymore, right? Mushrooms are delicious, but I've eaten too much recently. I always feel that my brain has become a little stupid!"

   "However, if there is still the supply of the love mushrooms from last time, I will try to eat a few more, hehehe..."

  Peggy put down the recipe and stretched:

   "It's still early for dinner, someone is looking for you."

  The little white cat Qiuka noticed the three of them at this time.

  She looked at Richard and Zeller vigilantly, her voice trembling slightly:

   "Matthew, are you selling me out?"

   "I don't just eat and drink with you all day long, so don't sell me out, okay?"

  Peggy nodded and said:

  "That's true. When she was in the cemetery, she often played hide-and-seek with zombies, caught lice for skeletons, compared lung capacity with ghosts, and occasionally caught mice."

  Looking at Qiuka nervous and frightened.

  Matthew laughed dumbfounded.

  At the moment he said softly:

"Don't be afraid, I'm not trying to sell you out - and I have no right to do so. This is Mr. Richard, and that's Mr. Zeller, and they're all big names in Rolling Stone. They're just curious about your abilities , so come and have a look today.”

  Qiuka's expression softened.

   Immediately became tense again:

   "You don't want me to become someone to assassinate the lord of Rolling Stone Town, do you?"

   "I really can't do this. I can catch mice, but killing people is too difficult for me."

  Richard stepped forward quickly.

  He just said:

   "Don't be afraid, let me see your eyes."

   Immediately, a crystal flower appeared in his hand.

  Richard put the crystal flower in his palm and laid it flat in front of Qiuka.

  Qiuka originally wanted to avoid it, but when he saw the crystal flower, his eyes were instantly attracted.

  Her gaze focused on the petals.

quickly.

   Attracted by a strange force.

  Two dark red blood spots appeared on her forehead.

   Richard put away the crystal flower.

  The blood spot on Qiuka's forehead disappeared instantly.

"what did you do to me?"

  The girl touched her forehead belatedly.

  Richard said gently:

   "She is a descendant of the Thousand Changes. She has only awakened the second layer, and has not yet become a depriver."

  Matthew asked:

   "What's that flower?"

   Richard explained:

   "This is the flower of eternal life that I borrowed from Eversong Forest. It contains the power of Jasliwen, the lord of the Thousand Changes, so it can resonate with some Thousand Changes."

   "It can be used to find the Altered One, but sadly, it doesn't work on the Decapitator."

   said.

  He looked at Qiuka with soft eyes:

   "Remember your parents, kid?"

  Qiuka shook her head:

   "I don't remember, I was adopted by a group of night elves when I was a child, but they drove me away quickly, as if because I was a changer."

   "Could it be that the thousand changers are of bad blood?"

  Richard considered the words:

  "Thousand-changers are not necessarily bad people, but for ordinary people, the power of thousand-changers is a bit too scary."

  “You must face up to your own power and fully grasp it. Only in this way can you not hurt others or yourself.”

   "Son, are you willing to learn the skills of rogues with me?"

   Poach the wall when you come up?

  Matthew raised his eyebrows, but didn't say anything.

   After all, the little white cat was just adopted by herself, and her coming and going is her freedom.

   Next second.

  Qiuka crisply said:

   "Why should I learn rogue skills?"

  Richard thought for a while:

   "Because then you can live the life you want."

  Qiuka wondered:

   "But now I'm living the life I want."

  Richard's smile froze on his face.

  He said to Matthew helplessly:

   "The Thousand Changes is a born wanderer. I can see that she is very talented. I want her to be my disciple."

   "Furthermore, according to the legend, there is a certain blood resonance between the thousand changers. If her potential can be stimulated under my training, she might help us find another potential thousand changer in Rolling Stone Town."

  Matthew waved his hand:

   "This matter depends on Qiuka's own wishes. I'm afraid I can't make the decision."

  Qiuka heard the words and said simply:

   "I listen to Peggy!"

   Peggy yawned:

   "I...don't listen to Matthew!"

   "But Matthew, you can give me some advice."

  Matthew coughed:

   "Mr. Richard is a highly respected legendary wanderer. His strength is strong and he is definitely the choice of a famous teacher."

  Peggy immediately took Chokara aside.

   The two whispered.

  However, some sporadic words still drifted into Matthew’s ears—

   "Old Man", "Legendary", "Rich", "Study hard", "Inherited" and so on.

   Richard's face almost turned black when he heard it.

   It took a long time.

  Under Peggy's persuasion, Qiuka finally reluctantly agreed to become Richard's disciple.

   But she has two conditions.

  Qiuka does not intend to leave the oak forest and the cemetery. Anything Richard wants to teach her has to be done in Matthew's territory.

also.

  Qiuka likes the food made by Peggy, and during the training period, Richard, as a teacher, seems to be responsible for the food expenses of the students.

   Qiuka is talking about these conditions.

  Richard cast doubtful eyes on Matthew frequently.

  Obviously regarded all of this as a model of the upper beam not being straight and the lower beam crooked.

  Matthew could only reply with a helpless wry smile.

   Peggy really wasn't taught by him.

   On the contrary, some of his problems were infected by the tauren.

   Fortunately, the two sides reached an agreement in the end.

  After agreeing on the daily training time.

   Zeller and Richard declined the invitation to stay for dinner.

  The three of them discussed again.

  Zeller decided to send Sif to Matthew's cemetery overnight.

   So far.

  The turmoil of the thousand changers has entered the stage of conservative prevention.

   Until more evidence is obtained.

  It is also difficult for them to conduct further investigations.

  Matthew intends to go to the Crucible House to look up information on the Thousand Changeers, and ask Margaret or Fandral for relevant information.

   But just after Zeller left.

  Peggy found Matthew with a letter:

   "I went back to my home in the town in the morning, and there was a letter in the mailbox, so I brought it for you."

  Matthew took the envelope and took a look.

   Mailing address is the Harpy Inn on Apple Avenue.

   And the sender.

   It was Lumiere.

  He quickly opened the letter and read it.

  …

  「Dear Ushiu, hello.

  I'm sorry that I wrote your name wrong last time. It's not the fault of the supervisor's wife. It should be my pronunciation problem, which caused her to misidentify a few letters.

  Afterwards, I learned how to read and write from her for a long time.

  Recently, my writing level should be improving day by day.

  I not only mastered the correct way of reading and writing, but also learned a lot of idioms from her. I will try to use some idioms in this letter, I hope you don’t mind.

  I'm not trying to show off my skills or increase your reading load.

   Just applying what you have learned.

  The last time you wrote to say that you can recommend a job for me, I rejoice.

   But thank you for your kindness.

   My current life is not bad, so I don’t bother you to visit me.

   Mine work really suits me.

   In terms of remuneration, you get more for your work, and they have never delayed my salary like other workers.

   I guess it's because of my efforts to impress them.

more importantly.

  This job is a lot of exercise.

  I can clearly feel that my strength is slowly growing.

also.

  My communication skills have also improved over time.

  Although everyone disliked me at first.

  But with my hard work, I quickly became one with them.

  Last week.

  I was promoted to be the team leader, and my status in this sub-mine is second only to the supervisor and his wife.

   Everyone is convinced.

  I thought my job at the mine would always be smooth sailing.

   However, bad luck happened soon.

   It was the second day I became the captain.

  A group of goblins attacked six miners under my command, five of them died in the depths of the mine tunnel, and the one who escaped back had only one arm left.

  The supervisor was very worried after learning about this.

  He worried that the boss would order the mine to close because of this.

   But the incident was too big, and he had no way to suppress it, so he had to report it all.

   It turns out that the overseer was right to be concerned.

  Our boss is a well-known wealthy businessman on Apple Avenue, and his wife is the female lord of Silverscale Town. It is said that the husband and wife seem to be in harmony, but they are also very powerful in the local area.

  The boss is a suspicious guy.

  He thought the goblins were attacking the miners because we dug too deep, and eventually shut down the mine.

I lost my job.

  Although the supervisor is not unemployed, he seems to be hit harder than me.

  I hate those goblins so much.

   They ruin my perfect job.

  So on the night of receiving the order to close the mine, I entered the depths of the mine alone.

  Following the smell, I found the corpses of the miners. There was not much meat left on their bones.

  I carried all the dead bodies out and set off again, this time I managed to find the goblin camp.

   It took me two days to kill almost 300 goblins and 20 bear goblins.

  However, this is still difficult to calm the anger in my heart.

  So I went down for dozens of kilometers and didn't stop until I encountered a half-demon.

  The half-demon asked me why I slaughtered his goblin minions.

  I replied without thinking:

   "They affect my mining."

  He looked stunned.

  I know that demons like them can't understand the love of a normal person like me for work.

   Considering he was the leader of the goblins.

   So I killed him too.

  When I appeared in front of the supervisor with the head of a demon and more than three hundred ears of goblins.

  I thought he would cry with joy.

   But in fact he did almost cry.

   It was just crying out of fear.

  He looked completely terrified.

  So is Mrs. Overseer.

  She was so frightened that she collapsed on the ground.

   They put all the money and jewelry in front of me in a panic, and asked me to take it away, so as not to hurt them.

   I don't understand why they are so fragile.

  Afterwards, I gradually realized that the force I possessed was something that many people in the outside world should fear.

  I told them I was not a strong man who robbed houses.

   I'm just annoyed at the goblin for ruining my good work.

   But they didn't believe it at all.

   At that time they begged me to take a lot of money and leave.

   I'm really baffled.

   But I am still very happy to have money.

  Available after leaving the mine.

   Within a few days, I found a notice for arresting fugitives on the hotel on Apple Avenue.

  I leaned over to take a look.

  The person above is actually me!

   Charged with burglary.

   The bounty is 3000 gold coins!

  Can you believe it?

  I'm actually worth 3000 gold coins! ?

   At that moment I really wanted to arrest myself.

   But I seem to be in trouble anyway.

  I tried going back to the mine to explain to the overseer and the overseer's wife, but they had already escaped.

   Fortunately, the area I'm in doesn't seem to be quiet.

  The army from Lion City is sweeping the nearby small territory.

  Everyone is at risk here.

  While wandering in the wilderness, I passed through the hilly country south of Apple Avenue, where I found a large number of dead bodies.

  They are all soldiers from nearby territories.

   Along the way, some villages were also slaughtered.

  There are corpses everywhere.

   No one handles it at all.

  I am writing this letter urgently because of—

  I heard the elders in the tribe say that if a large number of corpses are not disposed of as soon as possible, it is easy to cause a plague.

  The uncontained corpse here urgently needs a home.

  So I thought of you.

   A kind necromancer.

  You must have a way to deal with them, right?

  The battle near Deep Blue Harbor is still going on.

  More bodies are expected to appear in the future.

  I don't like this scene.

  So I plan to go all the way north, beyond the Lion City, to a more civilized place.

  I believe in your kind heart.

   It should be possible to give these homeless corpses a home.

  I thank you for the souls of their parents and relatives in heaven!

  —Lumiere, unemployed, June 15, in the cellar of the Harpy Inn"
