mechanical court

When the proprietress served the juice, she squinted her eyes, with a curious light shining in her pupils.

"Thank you!"

Reni took the ceramic cup and took a sip, the sweet and clear feeling filled the taste buds, and the fruit juice slid down her throat, feeling extremely comfortable.

"I have some new information recently."

"what?"

"The fear beast has the possibility of going south on a large scale."

Ivan noticed the pricked ears of the proprietress, and didn't care about her eavesdropping. Anyway, it was all sensational news, and no one would believe it, so he lowered his voice and continued:

"According to my recent discovery, the horror beasts have a cluster phenomenon, which may mean that they have begun to consciously concentrate their strength to prepare for the outbreak. It is even possible... There have been more advanced fear beasts among them that can give orders."

"Let's go out and talk!"

Renee showed a serious expression, immediately grabbed his hand, and rushed out of the tavern like flying, and the two quickly disappeared into the warm sunshine of the summer evening.

……

The two strolled under the shade of the street, and Ivan had grown a lot in the past year. He walked with Renee, who was 1.8 meters tall, and they were still a pair of close siblings.

"You are the invisible leader of the demon hunters, the person with the eyes of judgment, and you have absolute authority in this regard. I have no right to question you, but do you know what your discovery means?"

Reni looked at the setting sun that was getting lower and lower in the distance, and said in a trance.

"Of course I know."

Ivan nodded slightly, and glanced at her fair side face:

"The empire should be prepared. According to my inference, the first wave of outbreaks should be in the Lower Menes area. We must concentrate our efforts on dealing with this war."

"I will truthfully report all this to the Queen."

Renee squinted her eyes, feeling the oncoming breeze, and asked suddenly: "Don't you want to go home? The two majesties (Ellome and Xia Li) miss you very much."

"Of course I want to go home."

Ivan stopped, looked at the female officer in the shade, smiled and said:

"But hunting dreadbeasts is more of a mission than a task for me, and I won't stop working until I've weakened them enough to handle them without me."

For more than a year, the horror beasts killed by him accounted for one-third of the hunting rate, and this was the only way to barely maintain the empire's offensive against monsters.

Ivan couldn't imagine how rampant the Horrors would be if he retired.

Moreover, killing horror beasts to collect nightmare breath is of great benefit to his underworld magic. It has only been ten months, and his body has been strengthened close to a mature body, which can be said to be advancing by leaps and bounds.It would be great to be able to maintain this momentum, and things other than studying abroad can be put on hold.

"I understand."

Renee took a deep look at him, her beautiful red pupils flickered, and finally closed them gently: "In short, this is not a war for you alone, so please take care."

"I'll be careful."

Seeing the female officer's concerned expression, Yiwen suddenly remembered something important, and took out a stack of manuscript paper from his arms: "This is the progress of this month's research, you can take it to my cousin."

During this period of time, he sneaked in and delivered manuscripts on time every month. The arithmetic problems in elementary school textbooks were almost finished.

"You're such a mental monster..."

Renee took the manuscript paper and murmured it into her arms, her expression full of disbelief.

She really couldn't understand how it was possible for a person to focus on two mind-consuming things at the same time. Could it be that the other person has two heads! ?

……

The night light of the town outside the window is sprinkled in the hotel, making everything look like being in transparent water.

"..."

Ivan woke up from his practice and looked over the open window.Outside is a secluded forest path, with mottled tree shadows, and some unknown nocturnal creatures are chasing and fighting, quiet and peaceful.Smelling the faint scent of flowers, he simply closed his eyes and enjoyed the moment of tranquility.

At this time, the night wind blew in from the window, bringing an inexplicable chill.

He opened his eyes subconsciously, and when he looked out of the window, he found that it was completely dark outside, and the tall arbor-like plants were left with a vague outline, and the thin moonlight streamed in, becoming the only light in the room.

The shadows of the trees outside the window were mottled, and the whining sound of the wind could be heard from time to time. For some reason, Ivan felt as if something was staring at him in the darkness, and his whole body was covered with goose bumps.

Swish--!

The night wind suddenly picked up, and the lush branches and leaves were blown to the west, like countless shadows whispering.

"what happened!?"

Ivan looked at everything in front of him, showing a vigilant expression. Now that he has enough self-control ability, he will not absorb the original nightmare breath, and of course it is impossible to enter the realm of nothingness.

In other words, everything that happened in front of my eyes would definitely not be an illusion.

At this time, a vague figure flashed past the window.

"who is it!?"

He hurriedly got up and chased him out, followed the other party to the corridor, watched the other party's figure quickly disappear into the depths of the corridor, the candlelight on both sides kept flickering, giving people an inexplicable sense of treachery.

Yiwen chased all the way to the end of the corridor, but found no trace of the other party, so he knocked on the head vigorously, suspecting that he was dreaming.

At this time, there was no one else in the entire corridor, and the surroundings were empty, filled with a deserted and strange atmosphere under the dim candlelight.A few dark shadows spread across the floor, soundlessly, as if they were just the projections of the trees outside the window, but they could freely attach to the ground and pass through.

"..."

Ivan turned his head in response, his eyes wandered around, and the night wind gently brushed his hair, gradually calming down the anger and annoyance in his heart.

Turning around silently and taking steps, the sound of footsteps in the silent environment was particularly heavy. Through the half-opened corridor window, he could see the endless darkness spreading like a huge curtain.The surroundings seemed extremely quiet, and buildings stood strangely in the shadows, like a rippling mirror image, appearing and disappearing from time to time.

"This feeling... Am I being targeted? I'm tired of being famous..."

Ivan's eyes narrowed slightly, and between the constriction of the pupils, a dark flame burned, and the slowly unsheathed saber glowed coldly, and moved towards the shadow step by step.

His eyes can see the breath of nightmares that ordinary people can't observe, and can distinguish human beings from horror beasts, so he has the reputation of the eye of judgment.But at this moment, it seems that they have been shielded by a specific target, and they can't see the evil hidden in the shadows, so they can only find the target slowly by feeling.

call--!

A gust of cold air blew head-on, and the leaves outside the window also flew in, pounced on Ivan one after another.

"..."
