Chapter 67 The Discovery of Goren
Chapter 67 The Discovery of Goren
At this moment, Goren exuded a terrifying aura, but he looked at the man in front of him with a cold expression.
"Frederick, it's been a while."
"Are you asking for a beating again?"
In reality, Goren and Frederick's relationship wasn't very good.
Back when Goren was still a novice adventurer, Frederick had insulted Lillian.
Even without the power of Iron Fist, Goren still pounced on him back then, just like Joel is now.
So much so that later on, whenever Goren's extraordinary strength improved, he would go and have a good match with Frederick!
Goren has put in a lot of effort to go from winning more than he lost in the past to winning more than he lost later, and finally to achieving a complete victory.
That's why Frederick was terrified of the rabid dog.
He didn't want to have anything to do with this guy unless absolutely necessary.
"Sabrina, we'll meet at the entrance tomorrow morning."
After saying this, Frederick left the scene immediately.
At this moment, only the three people with the Dragon Slayer Blade remained in front of the shop, along with Joel lying on the ground, and a hooded girl standing beside him.
Goren was about to help Joel up when he noticed something was wrong.
Just as he was about to approach the two people, he sensed a dangerous aura emanating from the hooded girl!
Upon sensing this unusual feeling, Goren immediately stopped in his tracks. Although his expression remained unchanged, many questions arose in his mind.
Is the girl in front of me really a Log Level Adventurer?
Has that old bastard Frederick gone blind from playing around with women?
Even their instinct to sense danger has been completely worn away!
Goren squinted, carefully observing the girl in front of him.
The girl wasn't very tall, and with the hood up, Goren couldn't see much of her.
However, the parts of the other person that were exposed were all wrapped in gauze.
Goren could only see a small portion of the other person's skin.
It had an outer layer that looked like dead skin, seemingly enveloping the girl's body.
"Was Sabrina like this before?"
Goren was somewhat puzzled. He didn't know much about novice adventurers; he had only seen Flower Fairy Wings a few times in the Adventurers' Guild.
If Sabrina was an unremarkable country girl before, now she is more like a walking corpse wrapped in gauze!
Goren thought of this and intended to go forward to help, but Sabrina refused.
She simply raised her head slowly and looked at Goren with her dark green eyes.
"You are a good person."
So, don't come any closer.
After saying that, Sabrina immediately carried Joel and headed into the shop.
Seeing Joel injured, Sabrina's bandaged face showed no unusual expression, but inadvertently, a strange phantom flashed in her dark green eyes.
She simply spoke to Joel in a low voice.
"I'll bring back some souvenirs for you."
The two of them returned to the shop.
As for Goren, he was completely puzzled.
That girl doesn't look too good.
However, Goren thought that since it was Sabrina's own decision, she must have some means of protecting herself.
Thinking of this, Goren simply breathed a sigh of relief, quickly turned around and ran back to Lillian's side, picked up the supplies they had just bought, and headed towards the Dragonbreaker's barracks together.
Goren and the others all had spatial pockets, but they were already full of supplies, so they had to carry the rest back with them.
Fortunately, all three of them were trained, so this amount of weight had little effect on them.
But when the three returned to the barracks, they witnessed a strange scene.
Tessa, her eyes red, was berating Otto while munching on bread, looking quite comical.
As for Otto, he just sat to the side, desperately trying to suppress the upturn of his lips, looking quite happy.
"You two seem to be getting along quite well."
Goren was finally relieved to see the two getting along so well.
He had initially been a little worried that Tessa, who came from a big city, wouldn't get along with Otto, this country bumpkin.
In hindsight, his worries were unnecessary!
Tessa, however, seemed to remember something when she saw the three of them return. She immediately put down the bread and water she was holding and insisted on serving them dinner.
Watching Tessa's retreating figure as she served the rice, Javier shed tears of relief.
"Is this what it feels like to be a father?"
But seeing Javier wallowing in self-pity, Lillian ignored him and patiently explained to Tessa.
"Everyone in the Dragonbreaker faction is equal, so you don't need to worry too much about us."
But after she received her dinner and took her first bite, she finally understood.
Tessa isn't as well-behaved as she seems at all!
Seeing the three of them blushing from the spiciness, Tessa felt a surge of smugness. She sat down next to Otto and gave him a knowing look.
Wow, playing pranks is such an exciting thing!
At that moment, the barracks became completely chaotic, and it wasn't until late at night that everyone finally quieted down.
It was at this time that Otto told the three of them about Micah's arrangements and the attack they had encountered.
Upon hearing that Tessa had been attacked, Lillian and the others' expressions immediately changed.
Otto could even sense a fierce killing intent emanating from them!
Clearly, unlike the menacing Goren, Lillian and Havel, though seemingly kind, remain true to their past as adventurers, even after retiring.
Fortunately, the three of them recovered quickly and immediately began arranging the follow-up matters.
"Tomorrow the three of us will go to the Blackthorn Forest to hunt kangaroo bats."
As for the camp, I'll leave it to Lillian and Havel.
After saying that, Goren immediately urged everyone to go to sleep.
Unfortunately, Lillian immediately closed the door after entering her house and wouldn't let Goren in at all.
As for the others, they just chuckled to themselves as they closed their doors.
Otto finally breathed a sigh of relief after returning to his room.
He carefully took out some scented candles.
These were offerings that Micah had originally prepared in the barracks warehouse for Otto to use.
Thanks to Micah, at least Otto doesn't have to worry about offerings anymore.
"Finish the sacrifice as soon as possible; we can't let it affect tomorrow's adventure."
Thinking of this, Otto immediately sat cross-legged on the edge of the bed and began to chant the name of the goddess of light.
"The lamplighter on the Styx journey."
The ruler of the lost fog.
A feather of compassion that drives away fear from the lost.
Thank you for your blessing that helped me out of my predicament; may this offering please you.
As Otto chanted, the candle in his hand disappeared.
But at that moment, Otto once again felt that strange feeling of mental confusion.
