Lord Chronicle

Chapter 132 Hitches' Real Body
"What, what are you doing?" Saul looked at him, and there was nothing wrong.

Suddenly, anger burst out on Mary's face, she grabbed a wooden stick on the ground and rushed towards Sol: "You... old man, you are hiding here!"

"Wow, don't do it." Sol and Hitches yelled at the same time, and then they looked at each other.

"Huh?" Just as Sol was wondering, Hitches jumped away.

"M, Mary? Why are you..." He stammered and pointed at Mary.

"Hmph, I didn't expect it, I found it after all!" Mary grinned, "If I hadn't heard from Saul about the weird potion that only you can make, I wouldn't have guessed that you would hide it in here."

Hitches looked at her, then at Sol, and suddenly screamed: "Betrayer!"

"Huh?" By this time, Sol was completely confused.

"Shut up, you irresponsible bastard!" Mary swung the wooden stick angrily, "Tell me, why did you leave me alone and run away!"

"What kind of stuff?" Sol's eyeballs almost popped out. The facts that happened before him were too shocking. Could it be that there is still a relationship between the old and the young?
"Mary, you have grown up and should learn to be self-reliant." Hitches shook his head slowly.

"Shut up, you have no right to speak out against me." Mary interrupted him angrily.

"Hey, you are still a child who can't grow up. In fact, I did this for your own good, so..." Hitches said, and suddenly took out a scroll from his arms and unfolded it: "Goodbye!"

"Ah, damn it!" Mary cursed angrily, and at the same time, she saw a thick puff of smoke rising in front of Hitches, completely concealing his figure.

"Sol, you liar, you said you were not allowed to reveal that the potion was related to me." From a distance, Hitches yelled unwillingly.

Mary rushed up immediately, but there was no sign of Hitches.When the smoke dissipated, she looked at the empty place, and angrily threw the wooden stick away: "Bastard, you actually ran away for me again."

"Hey, can you tell me what's going on?" Sol didn't come to his senses until then.

Turning to look at him, Mary suddenly stepped forward: "Why did you help him cover up?"

"What are you covering up?" Saul was stunned.

"Come on, I asked if there were any alchemists in your territory, why did you say no?" Mary asked back.

Saul looked puzzled: "But it's really not there."

"Nonsense, he's obviously..." Mary was about to refute, but suddenly she seemed to think of something, and said with a dark face, "Wait, who do you think that guy is?"

"Free Mage, you are the bastard who lied to me for gold coins." Thor spread his hands.

After being stunned for a while, Mary gritted her teeth and said, "No wonder, I couldn't find any high-level alchemy items in the territory. That dead old man actually used his identity as a magician to cover up, and he was almost fooled by him."

"What happened? Who is he?" Thor couldn't help but ask.

Mary spat: "Who else is it? It's my missing stinky old man."

"What!?" Sol exclaimed: "He is your father?"

"Surprised, aren't you?" Mary glanced at him. "With such an embarrassing father, I'm so stupid as to look for him all over the world."

Hitches is actually Mary's father?In other words, he is the missing chief alchemist from the Magicians Guild?Although I once guessed that this guy's origin is not simple, but it is too scary, right?

He's just a top alchemist, why did he come to this backcountry to pretend to be a magician?Although Hitches' identity was clarified, the next question made Sol even more confused.

The Wizards Guild can't tolerate him anymore?No, isn't the guild also looking for him; is it to avoid enemies?That's not right, staying in the guild is much safer than here; could it be that he can't stand this daughter, so he finds a place to hide and quiet for a while?Well, it's possible...

While Saul was thinking wildly, Mary walked to the ruined research room with a dark face, and then grabbed a dilapidated notebook from the pile of rubble.

"Put it down quickly, it's the most important research note of Master." An apprentice shouted hastily.

As if he was about to listen to Mary, he walked up to him with a smile: "Little friend, what did you just say?"

The apprentice gave her a fearful look: "I said this research notebook is the most important thing for the master. If, if it disappears, he will definitely go crazy with anger."

"So..." Mary glanced at the note in her hand with a half-smile: "He will definitely come back to get it?"

"En." The apprentice nodded his head as if pecking at rice.

"What's the matter, what is that?" Sol leaned over curiously.

"Oh hehehehehe..." Without any warning, Mary suddenly let out a strange laugh.

Sol staggered in fright: "What happened?"

"Hmph, old man, I think you can fly out of my palm this time?" Holding up Hitches' research notes, Mary looked up to the sky and laughed wildly.

"This sister is terrible."

"Yeah yeah."

"No wonder Master ran away as soon as he saw her."

On the side, the apprentices whose little faces turned pale with fright chattered and said...

************************************************** *********************
Lowell Territory, Adventurer's Guild Office.

"Idiot, it's been so many days, why haven't you caught it yet?" In the room, Sog, the leader of the guild who stayed in the territory, was reprimanding loudly.

In front of him, the two men bowed their heads deeply, not daring to make a sound.

After a while, one of them said: "Mr. Soge, we can't blame us, that girl is too smart, every time we just get a little closer, she slips away."

"Shut up, how dare you call yourself a top-notch adventurer even if you can't catch a little girl?" Sog interrupted him rudely.

Another man said: "I really don't understand why the guild has to spend a lot of time to catch that girl, but it has to do it quietly. If more people were rounded up, we would have succeeded."

Soge waved his hand impatiently: "What can I do? This is an order from the guild. The higher-ups have repeatedly warned me not to let the people in the territory find out."

"That's troublesome, just a few people can't catch her." The two men said helplessly.

"Idiots, it's not that you are too useless." Soge cursed, gritted his teeth, and said, "What to do, the superiors are urging me again. The excavation in the relic forest has reached a critical moment, and the girl must be sent there immediately."

Glancing with his accomplices, a man said, "Why don't you go to Parkland's team."

"Klan, are they back?" Sogg asked in surprise.

The man nodded: "They just came out of the mountains today and caught several precious monsters."

"But those guys have been hiding in the mountains for a long time dealing with monsters, it seems a bit abnormal." Another man hesitated.

Soge waved his hand: "It's okay, Klan's team is a top monster hunter after all, if they go out, they will definitely catch her. Besides, this is the highest level adventurer I can find in Lovell so far."

As he said that, he slapped the table fiercely: "Don't wait any longer, notify Kelan immediately and ask him to bring his team on standby. Tonight, we must succeed!"

the same moment.

"Just tonight, I must succeed!" Mary gritted her teeth.

"Are you really planning to set a trap to catch your father?" Sol couldn't help but ask.

"Hmph, I found him so hard, how could I let this bastard slip away so easily." A gleam flashed in Mary's eyes.

"I can't control what you want to do, but..." Saul scratched his head depressedly: "Why do you have to do it in my yard?"

Looking around with the two of them as the center, I saw that the courtyard of the lord's mansion had become riddled with holes, pits and trip wires everywhere, and there were also many strange props buried by Mary.

"Come on, I didn't demolish your house, why are you so stingy." Mary said disdainfully.

Sol could only smile wryly: "I'm afraid in the end, I'm afraid the problem won't be solved by demolishing the house."

"Okay, a man should be more straightforward." Mary carefully placed Hitches' notes on a magic scroll buried in the soil, stood up and patted Sol's shoulder: "Don't you want to know what? What the hell is the old man doing?"

Looking at the courtyard that was about to become the surface of the moon, Sol wanted to cry without tears: "I don't want to..."

In the territory, at a certain street corner.

"Little sister, come, come here." The ashen-faced Hitches stuck out his head from behind the corner, waving to Mira continuously.

Mira looked at her in bewilderment, then took a step back vigilantly.

"Come here, there's something delicious." Hitches pulled out a chicken leg like a magic trick, and shook it at Mira.

Attracted by chicken legs, and knowing Hitches, Mira was finally attracted.

While Mira was gnawing on it, Hitches smiled brightly: "Is it delicious? If you are willing to do uncle a favor, I will give you more delicious food."

At this time, he was completely a salty uncle who seduced underage girls.

Although she didn't speak, the saliva drooping from the corner of Mira's mouth has replaced the answer.

"Tonight, you go to the lord's house and help me find a book, that's it." Hitches took out a piece of paper on which he drew the note he had lost.

"As long as you find it, I'll give you whatever you want, how about it?" Hitches said.

Mira nodded without hesitation.

"Then it's settled. I'll wait for you at the foot of the hillside of the Lord's Mansion tonight. Remember, you must have this book." Hitches patted Mira on the head.

Humph, Mary, Mary, you are still too tender, I can guess what you want with my ass.Want to lure me with notes?Wait another 100 years.

************************************************** ************
In everyone's different plans, night gradually fell on Lovell.

"Boss, was that girl transformed by an ogre? How long does she want to eat?" In the dark alley, four people looked pitifully at Aunt Maisie's hotel opposite.

This is a group of men and women dressed as adventurers. One of them is in his 30s, with a full face and beard, and looks very strong; the man who just spoke is a tall and thin man, with a belt full of throwing knives hanging around his waist; The third person is a middle-aged man. Although he is wearing light leather armor, he has a calm temperament all over his body; the last person is a tall woman with a rolled leather whip on her shoulders.

"Shut up and stay quiet." The leading man reprimanded.

In fact, they can't be blamed for being depressed. When they found Mira, she had already sat in the hotel and ate, and she hasn't stopped talking until now.Her terrible appetite shocked everyone, and the thin and tall man silently estimated that maybe all of them together, this girl would not be able to eat.

"Damn, this territory is full of weirdos." He couldn't help muttering.

"Boss, she has been eating for an hour, should we continue to wait? Just rush in." The woman whispered.

The leading man shook his head: "There are strict orders from above not to disturb the residents in the territory, so wait until she comes out before doing anything."

"Really, we are the best monster hunters, and we were sent to catch a little girl. What's the matter?" the thin and tall man couldn't help complaining.

The leader sneered: "It's okay, I heard that she is very difficult to deal with, and the guild sent several groups of people but they couldn't catch her. For us, catching monsters is no longer a challenge, so let's change our taste this time. Let’s catch people and have fun.”

As he spoke, the alley returned to silence again, only a few pairs of cold eyes piercing the darkness, like a group of wild beasts waiting for their prey to take the bait.

And at this time in the hotel, Julie brought a basket of bread and a big pot of soup to Mira: "Eat slowly, there is plenty. We welcome you here at any time. If you like, you can come here to eat every day."

Aunt Maisie also poked her head out of the kitchen with a smile: "Don't worry about the money, I'll put it on the lord's account for you."

"Mom, don't you say that you are too philistine?" Julie scolded.

Maisie shrugged: "I'm telling the truth. Who gave Mira such a good appetite? One meal of hers is equivalent to our three-day turnover."

"Ah, there are really so many?" Julie exclaimed.

"Of course, this is just a rough estimate. If she eats a little more meat, it will be equivalent to five days."

"..." After being dazed for a while, Julie turned and walked towards the kitchen: "Wait, Mira, I'll go and see how much meat is left in the kitchen, and I'll bring you all."

At this moment, Mira, who had been munching, suddenly raised her head and looked out the window.Looking at the food on the table reluctantly, she got up and walked towards the door.

"Are you leaving? I haven't served you meat yet..." Julie said regretfully.

"It doesn't matter, she has already eaten 15 gold coins." Mei Xi quietly pulled her daughter, and then said enthusiastically: "Go slowly, remember to come tomorrow."

In the alley, the four people who had been waiting for a long time finally saw Mira leave the hotel and walk out of the town alone.

"It's finally finished." Several people were relieved in unison in their hearts.

The leading man said: "Aiden, you go from the left, Fira, you go from the right, Taris, you follow me from behind. Remember, when you act, you immediately use magic to entangle her, and I will succeed in 1 minute." .”

The tall, thin man and the woman nodded, and entered the darkness of the alley from left and right.The middle-aged man named Taris quietly followed Mira along with the leading man.

Under the boundless night, Mira walked slowly in the remote street alone with her hands behind her back.The faint moonlight dragged a long shadow behind her, and at this moment, this scruffy girl had an indescribable mystery.

The Klan team is the top team for capturing monsters, and their long-term tracking of monsters has given them excellent tracking skills.At this moment, the four of them faintly formed an encircling circle and followed Mira, and Mira, who had always been sensitive, didn't notice it at all.

The pedestrians on the street became less and less, and Mira soon came to the edge of the town.The houses at the end of the street were all dark, without any lights, and looked very quiet.Further outside is an empty open space, the open space is about 50 meters wide, and further outside is a dense forest.

Crane was delighted in his heart, this girl is really cooperative, this is simply an excellent place to do it.If she had been hanging out on the street, it might be a little tricky.

Although Aiden and Fila could not be seen, the long-term cooperation made Crane know that the two must have entered the predetermined position.Looking at Mira's back, a smile slowly formed on the corner of his mouth.

I haven't noticed our existence until now, this is indeed another mission without challenges.

Just when he was about to signal for action, he suddenly heard Taras whisper: "Attention, look at what she is doing?"

Crane looked intently, and saw Mila squatting under a big tree, her shoulders shrugged and moved non-stop, as if she was digging for something.

"Wait, there's something weird." Kelan quickly made a gesture to stop moving for the time being.

The higher ups want this girl so tightly, there must be some huge secret hidden in her, maybe it's just buried under that tree.For a while, both Crane and Taris thought so.

So the two of them stared at Mira's movements intently, not even daring to take a breath.

"Look, it's moving, she's moving." As Mira pulled out something from the ground, Talis couldn't restrain his excitement.

She folded her hands together, and although her back was facing the two of them, she could still see that she was holding a small object, but what was strange was that there was a strange clicking sound in the air at this moment.

"What exactly is it? A treasure map? A top-level magic core? A magic item? Could it be... an artifact?"

All kinds of messy thoughts popped up in Crane's mind, which made his breathing involuntarily aggravated.

Finally, under the expectation of everyone, Mira turned around slowly and coquettishly, so they were surprised to see that she, she, she...she was actually holding a piece of sweet potato with mud, and gnawed it full of mud with relish...

Great God Denisos, hasn't this girl had enough?For a moment, both of them almost passed out.

"Fuck, are you playing us for fools?" Kelan was so angry that he stood up from his hiding place.

At the same time, Aiden and Fira also appeared from the left and right, both of them were angry, obviously very angry because of the misunderstanding just now.

Facing the four guys who appeared suddenly, Mira looked around with big eyes, but she was still holding the piece of sweet potato in her hand, gnawing on it like a squirrel.

At this time, Klan didn't plan to make a quick decision, and dared to play with me?It seems that today this ignorant girl must be taught a lesson.

"You know, you make me very angry." Klan said calmly when he walked in front of Mira.However, only those who are familiar with him know what kind of desire lurks beneath this tranquility.

Mira didn't speak. In fact, she seemed to be paying more attention to the sweet potato than Kelan in front of her.

"Oops, the boss seems to be really angry." Aiden couldn't help but said.

Feila sneered and said, "When we bring her back, this girl probably only has half her life?"

And Talis shook his head: "Oh, it seems that there will be another bloodbath."

Crane sighed: "What they said is the truth, do you believe it?"

Not understanding what this annoying guy had been muttering, Mira finally looked up at him.

Thinking that she had been frightened into a fool, Kelan wagged his fingers and said, "But don't be afraid, there is an order from above to take you back unscathed, so I won't do anything to you."

As he said that, his complexion changed suddenly, and a terrifying murderous aura burst out of his body, rushing towards Mira like a huge wave.

"But you really pissed me off! Someone once said a sentence, and many people didn't believe it, but then they all believed it, because I proved the truth of that sentence with blood, you know? With blood!"

The more he spoke, the more excited he became, Kelan's entire face was almost in front of Mira's nose: "That sentence means that Kelan is very angry and the consequences are serious... oops!"

Mira frowned, and threw an object out of her hand, slamming it on Kelan's nose with lightning speed. In an instant, Feihong appeared in surprise, and Kelan screamed and fell away.

This turn of events was so sudden that Aiden and the others were stunned for a full second before rushing forward in exclamation: "Boss, boss, are you alright?"

Kelan was lifted up with blood all over his face, and there were still some sweet potato residues hanging from the bridge of his nose. Obviously, Mira couldn't stand this whining guy, so she simply used actions to shut him up.

It has to be said that Klan really used blood to prove the truth of that sentence, but with his own blood...

Who would have thought that this silly looking girl would do it as soon as she said she would do it, Kelan's bulging veins almost popped out of his forehead, he held his nose and yelled, "Catch her!"

Before the words fell, Aiden double-teamed Mira from the left and Fira from the right. At the same time, Taris also began to chant the spell, and the capture operation finally began.
