mechanical court

He found that the way Renee looked at him was a little strange, the eyes were bright and slightly hot.

"No problem, wrap it on me!"

Renee's pretty face was slightly red, and she patted her plump chest to assure her.

……

Back at Hades Temple, Ivan didn't hesitate for a moment, and immediately told the guardian about it, and asked if it was risky.

The other party was silent for a long time, and finally gave him the answer - do what you want to do.

On the other side, after Ellome received Renee's report, she suffered from headaches.Ruling such an empire that is dying, and encountering such troubled times, being as strong as her, there is also a feeling of powerlessness.

"The monster witch... has one more thing to worry about."

Elulomei narrowed her eyes tiredly, raised her pretty face, and leaned on the cushion on the back of the chair.The thin morning light shone on her body, and the extended shadow was cast on the wall, reflecting graceful curves.

"It would be great if he could be obedient..."

In the midst of so many troubles, she inexplicably thought of Ivan's figure, her heart was bitter and unspeakable, and she suddenly felt a burst of regret.

Although the other party is young and looks small and weak, he is not confused in handling things, and he can handle things that he finds difficult.It is a royal family itself, and there is no possibility of betraying the royal court. With such an assistant by my side, it must be a lot easier.

It seems... I was too impatient in beating myself.

"By the way, His Majesty Ivan said that he cannot tolerate the existence of this monster and is willing to help us thoroughly investigate this matter."

When Renee reported his work, he naturally added his own beautiful illusions. Between words, he established a good image of "caring about state affairs" and "sharing worries for the king".

"He really said that!?"

Ai Luluomei's heart moved, she opened her eyes and looked at her, her bright eyes shone with a magnificent light.

"Yes."

"Then bring it on."

She nodded slightly, held her forehead with one hand, took a deep breath, and said slowly: "At least in this matter, let him share some troubles for me."

Chapter 62 The Witcher ([-])

Lower Menes, Negada Oasis, Noxis Village.

Compared with the densely populated Upper Menes, the economically underdeveloped Lower Menes area generally has much smaller villages.

The overall layout of Noxis Village is very simple. The two intersecting rammed earth avenues are all transportation facilities. They meet each other in the center of the village to form a small square.And in the houses attached to both sides of the road, there are nearly [-] villagers living in it—this is already quite a big village.

About ten kilometers away from the village is the holy river that feeds this country, and there are countless fertile fields in it. Since it is the rainy season, most of these fertile fields are flooded.The faint but distinct roar that mingled with the air proved this to all—the roar of indefatigable waves crashing against the rocks.

A village rooted in an oasis, adjacent to a river, well-connected and densely populated, these conditions add up to the ideal hiding place for filth—especially those fear beasts that eat human flesh and blood.

Dreadbeast is the official name of the empire for this kind of monster.

They believe that creatures that eat human flesh and blood can no longer be called human beings, and can only be treated as the most cruel beasts.

Since the defeat of the war against the invaders, man-eating monsters have appeared one after another on the vast land of Menes.

These monsters usually move around with human faces, and their appearance and behavior are no different from ordinary people. They can go without food or drink for several weeks, but once their appetite explodes, they will reveal their bloodthirsty and terrifying true colors.

Correspondingly, relying on the temple systems in various places, the empire organized a large number of crusade teams to eliminate them.

Among them, the most active and most outstanding one is the crusade team against the Temple of Hades.The legendary leader of this team is the partner of the Sun King Ellerome and the brother of the Pluto Xia Li - the great judge Ivan.

According to folklore, he has a pair of eyes to distinguish between good and evil, good and evil, and can make fear beasts disguised as ordinary people invisible.Thus, in his glorious record, no innocent has been murdered, and no dreadbeast has ever escaped punishment.

And why did this once high-ranking king suddenly drop everything and devote himself to the cause of exorcism?

The most widely circulated, and most convincing, version explains it this way:

More than a year ago, on the shore of Jinghu Lake, the judge accidentally killed the first fear beast.He was amazed by the horror and evil of the monsters, and felt that these filthy things could not be allowed to kill innocent people and must be cleaned up.So he cared about the suffering of the people and was jealous of evil, so he took the initiative to put down all his rights and traveled all over the country to fight for his people.

After countless righteous and noble battles, the Great Judge was born.

Of course, these are the 'myths and legends' born out of Ivan's overly brilliant achievements combined with people's good-hearted imagination.

As for the actual situation, only a very small number of people know it well, but even if they stand up and expose the truth, no one will care.

Anyway, wherever Ivan's footprints go, there will be no fear beasts. The iron-like fact is seen by the public-they are willing to believe that there is such a judge in the world.

……

Under the heavy night, the sleeping village has already woken up, and there are shining torches everywhere.The rays of light intertwined into fire dragons are moving in the streets and alleys, forming a big net of restlessness and anxiety, covering the entire village.

"Fear beast! It's a fear beast!"

Accompanied by the screams of panic, the village under the light and shadow of the torches was covered with a trace of haze. The hot and humid air seemed to be mixed with cold currents, and the restlessness on the streets also shattered the original tranquility.

The local militia held torches and set up roadblocks on the main roads of the village, and the young and middle-aged people in the village also took action under the guidance of the elders. Some raised torches and climbed to the roof, some carried shields to block the road, and The most important thing is to equip weapons and armor and join the militia.

Although the opponent is just a long-hungry fear beast, no one dares to be negligent—otherwise, he will definitely pay the price in blood. This is the valuable experience accumulated from countless tragedies.

At this moment, the Horror Beast still maintains its human-shaped disguise. On the surface, it is a middle-aged gentleman in expensive clothes, with a gem-studded cane in his hand.But the bloodthirsty murderous intent in his scarlet eyes, his distorted face, and the violently wriggling skeleton all revealed his alien nature.

There are more than twenty people behind the monster, and the heavily armed militiamen are chasing after it. Its movements are extremely flexible, and it bounces as silently as a cheetah.But the armor on the militiaman made a loud noise, which attracted everyone's attention.

"The fear beast is afraid of light and fire, block him with torches!"

Several chasing militia captains shouted loudly, and the young man in front immediately responded by throwing torches.

"Ouch!"

As soon as possible, the Dread Beast's movements were extremely agile, but when it saw dozens of torches rushing towards its face, it still howled in fear.It subconsciously stopped running. Once it stopped, it lost the chance to escape and had to face the outflanking.

"Die you monster!"

The leading militia captain emboldened with an angry roar, and at the same time pulled the bowstring in his hand, the sharpened arrow flashed coldly, and quickly aimed at the body of the fear beast.

"Huh...huhu..."

The humanoid monster stared at its protruding scarlet eyes, covered the vitals of its face with its arms, panting heavily, and as its chest rose and fell, a strong stench immediately filled the air.

"shooting!"

As soon as the militiamen gave an order, the young and middle-aged man on the opposite side immediately raised their shields, and unscrupulous sharp arrows shot out like a swarm of bees, bringing the fear and anger of the local people, pouring on the fear beast.

"Whoa whoa whoa! Whoa whoa!"

The humanoid monster dodged left and right in the rain of arrows, twisting rapidly like a fuzzy phantom. Most of the sharp arrows were all missed, but a small number of arrows still hit the target, making it howl continuously in pain.
