Academic Gathering with Lich Colleagues

Chapter 27 Chai Chai
"So, what are the specifics of the case?"

"The town of Lavren is a new territory that was recently confirmed by the kingdom. The town's administrative system has just started, and this case happened less than a month after the new mayor was dispatched."

"The deceased was a farmer in Lavren, who died three days ago. There were witnesses at the time, it was his wife. When the mayor arrived at the scene, his wife was almost collapsed. She seemed to have witnessed a huge fear, and she kept talking about it. , it's Rafaelin's wolf, it's here, it wants to take us back..."

"Raphaelin's wolf? What is it."

"According to the description of the locals, it is a giant wolf the size of a house, only wandering in the outskirts of Lavren, not afraid of swords and guns, not afraid of open flames, only the pupils glow blue in the dark. It has always existed, but only Recently, there has been an attack on the residents."

"The locals believe that it was the wolf who felt that the humans had betrayed it, so they bit the hand they signed the contract and made them wailing to death on that land."

"contract?"

"Raphaelin is the predecessor of Rafren. Its geographical location is at the junction of Zwei Kingdom and Hualuo Kingdom. The terrain is remote, and the surrounding area is still difficult to use swamps. The kingdom has no demand for that land, so Rafaelin has become two No matter the location."

"Without the kingdom to drive development, Rafaelin is still as primitive as the Stone Age. It was a barren land with extremely poor living conditions. In order to change the status quo, the mayor at that time asked for help from a foreign shaman, Wuzhu, and asked for a patron saint. Here comes the wolf."

"The wolves brought animals that could be hunted and seeds of food suitable for growing, and the locals found the marshes fertile enough to support themselves."

"It's all going to go on and on."

"But a few years ago, the mayor of Rafaelin passed away, and no one could call the wolf anymore. Those residents began to realize that the wolf was just an animal and that they lacked the reins to restrain them. They were afraid and started to flee. Someone mentioned One suggestion is to move everyone to the kingdom's territory, and they are willing to accept the kingdom's jurisdiction and become a part of it."

"At that time, as the first group of outsiders accepted in the past ten years, the kingdom signed a contract of obedience with them and established the town of Lavren next to Lafelin."

"Now that the wolf is here, the citizens there feel that fear is coming again. Some people want to leave, and some people want to go back to Lafayette. The mayor couldn't control the situation and decided to entrust us to investigate the case to give them an explanation."

"We're sure if someone is pretending to be a ghost, or if the wolf god really has something to do with it."

"I have no doubts and can go any time."

"Don't worry, we will leave tomorrow morning. Before that, I have to make some preparations and find a friend."

"friend?"

"Weird related professionals, banned friends."

"A wizard?"

"I don't think he likes this title. He is always emphasizing the sanctity of his profession. In my opinion, he is a crazy old man."

"Can I meet him?"

"Of course, you go with me. Tomorrow morning."

"Ok."

...............

Ralph goes to prepare everything he needs, and Lyle prepares to get his own aid.

Andrei's night sky is still hung with the blood moon that remains unchanged. Is Andrei really on the earth?

Lyle sat on the balcony of the extravagant cup, watching the heat of the black tea float into the night sky, he thought.

Beside him, Ms. Arianna, Mr. Giant Dragon, and Mr. Gentleman surrounded the stone table and were holding a welcome tea party for the newlyweds, although no one touched the tea.

"Talent Awakening Ritual, ingredients, ten ounces of Lich Dust, a piece of Ghost Moss, three Yeti teardrops and..."

"A gift from a voluntary gifted person." Arianna removed a yellow stone from the hem of her skirt.

"This is Lich Dust, it's enough." Mr. Dragon took out a small cloth bag.

"Three teardrops," Mr. Gentleman brought a piece of good news, "I learned that the epidemic doctor wanted to perform the awakening ceremony, I deliberately went to negotiate with my friends from the Magic Academy, and easily solved the problem of gold coins. However, they have a Small request."

"They want to make small changes to the ceremony, which, of course, are completely beneficial to Mr. Epidemic Doctor, I'm sure."

This is really good news. As for some small changes, would 12 gold coins be important? Moreover, it was an act that Mr. Gentleman determined was not malicious, reliable.

"thank you very much."

"Only ghost moss is left. We just don't have the inventory, but we can provide a few locations for collection sites, but Mr. Epidemic Doctor has to travel far by himself."

"This is as it should be, and everyone's help makes me feel ashamed."

"Don't mind, Mr. Epidemic Doctor," said the gentleman with a smile, "this is just the first step in helping each other. You can think of this as an investment. Maybe we will ask for help in the future, so please be generous. help."

"must."

"Is the epidemic doctor thinking about making a staff? Have the materials been selected?" Mr. Giant Dragon rubbed his hands. He sat opposite Lyle, like a hill.

"I wanted to use the right wood so that, outside, I could use it naturally."

"Well, when you choose the right one, I can be responsible for its carving work. This is a little hobby of mine. It's free." Mr. Dragon kept his regrets.

"Thank you, I shouldn't need it recently. I need to travel far, and I may not come to Andry in a short time." Lyle didn't think that staying with Ralph would give him time to disappear for a while. That uncle's sense of smell As sharp as a wolf.

"Is it important?"

"Yes, I need to go to Lavron."

"Lavron? Newly established human settlement, near Cassandel?"

"The villages and towns in the Zwei Kingdom that you recently joined, maybe Raphaelin, you may have an impression." Lyle deliberately brought up this topic, and with Arianna's curiosity, she would definitely let the topic continue.

"It turned out to be Rafaelin." Arianna was discouraged. She seemed to be familiar with Rafaelin and had no desire to know.

"Chai Chai is there, at Lafayette!" Mr. Giant became excited all of a sudden.

"Chai Chai?"

"That was more than ten years ago. I went to Lafayette and resurrected a pet dog with a seance there. Its owner and I were very satisfied. It was really a happy time. Mr. Epidemic Doctor, You should check it out, Chai Chai's fur touches, but it's pretty wonderful."

"Moreover, in Chai Chai's nest, there are also some magical medicinal materials, including ghost moss."

"Really? That's lucky."

So, what kind of pet dog is so popular with dragons, and even precious magic materials grow in its home?
"Chai Chai, is it the size of a house?"

"No, Mr. Epidemic Doctor really likes to joke, how can there be a dog the size of a house?"

It seems that the conjecture in my heart has been dispelled.

"Chai Chai is a newborn, only the size of a carriage."

"..."

Chai Chai is Rafaelin's wolf.

"Chai Chai is a soul dog. He is a special one. He has talent and is kind to people. When he is alive, he will be liked by humans. After death, he will only be transformed into a ghost dog and will absorb those souls. strength, which will keep him growing."

Lyle's heart is complicated, and the last boss of this sheriff's journey seems to be Mr. Dragon's pet.

"Is there a way to tame it?" In fact, Lyle wanted to destroy it, but Mr. Dragon probably wouldn't agree.

"Of course, and it's very simple, Chai Chai is a little cutie, he likes everyone who plays games with him."

"We'll play nose-touching games together."

"As long as you can quickly put your palm on its nose before Chai Chai can react, he will surrender and like you."

The difficulty of the task seems to have eased a lot.

"Then why don't Chai Chai react as fast?"

"If you lose your hand, Chai Chai will bite off your arm to make his new toy."

"..."

"Because Chai Chai's intelligence is not very high, as soon as you reach out your hand, he will think the game starts."

"..."

Presumably this was the cause of the farmer's death.
