Apocalyptic Dragonborn Lord

Chapter 125 Darkness Walks With You
"Great! I didn't expect there to be human brain navigation!" Stannis raised his hands and cheered. This dragon can open cheats casually, and it looks like it will come to play more autumn winds in the future.

The dragon seemed to think the same way. It seemed to have thought about it for a long time and said, "And next time you come, bring more roasted lamb and remember to add some cinnamon."

This dragon is quite good at eating, but Stannis agreed directly, "Of course, no problem, Brother Long!"

Relying on the brain map given by the dragon, Stannis finally got rid of the road-crazy situation, and drove the carriage back to the territory familiarly, and along the way, he didn't encounter the parasitic wolves he encountered when he came, and he went smoothly. Return to the territory.

When he returned to the castle, he found that the way his trio looked at him had changed. These three guys looked at him with the eyes of pork on the chopping board, which made the lord feel terrified.

"Is there... is there a problem?" Stannis asked anxiously, swallowing a mouthful of saliva.

Bachelor Romon reached into his pocket and rummaged, and finally took out a piece of crumpled paper.

"Your Excellency, there is an important matter that urgently needs your attention!"

"What!" Stannis breathed a sigh of relief, "It's not an emergency like someone calling the door, you can deal with ordinary daily affairs by yourself."

But the three of them were still staring at him, not laughing and joking as usual.

Korodov put his hand on his shoulder, and Maester Romon walked in front of him, "This matter is extremely important, because the consequences may be more serious than all of us think!"

A bead of sweat dripped from Stannis' head, maybe it was his own illusion, he always felt that these three guys had been a little weird since he came back.

"If it's really serious, then let's go and deal with it, but what the hell is it!"

The three did not answer, Korodov mentioned him and threw him on the horse, and then a group of NPCs rushed out from all around as if they had been prepared, and instantly formed an adventure team. Stannis was caught in the middle of them and walked towards the forest go.

"What the hell is it that requires such a big show!" Stannis complained loudly. Since entering the forest, the group has remained silent, and occasionally the hoarse cry of a crow can be heard from a distance.

Not to mention Kanye and Batesmore, anyway, one is a gourd and the other is a money-adding maniac, but Robert, who has always been very noisy, seems unusually quiet today.

Stannis didn't like the situation very much, and he began to wonder if these guys wanted to take him to a place where no one lived and secretly slaughtered him.

In the end, it was Bachelor Romon who spoke first, "Your Excellency, do you remember the last time you asked me to do a census?"

Of course Stannis remembered that it was the second day after he promulgated the decree to absorb immigrants. He couldn't wait to know the effect, so he forced Bachelor Romond to count whether the population had increased. The result was that not only did it not increase, but one household even increased overnight. Disappeared, much to his shock.

"Of course I remember!" He said indignantly, "There was a family that moved out overnight at that time. I really should have issued a hunting warrant to arrest them. But it's strange, even if you want to leave, why don't you bring anything with you?"

Robert gave the answer, "Boss, you don't have to hunt them down anymore, we've already found out where they are."

"Oh? That's great, as long as they move back, I'll let it go, but is it a fine..." Stannis was still talking to himself, completely unaware of the uneasiness hidden under the other's expression.

"Here, here!" Stannis suddenly heard the voice of Derber's Terrace in the distance. He was standing on a stone and shouted to them. It seemed that he had been here for a long time.

"What's going on here?" Stannis was curious.

No one answered him, they just walked silently towards the direction where Jabotai was standing.

Before he walked in, the lord could smell a stench, like the smell of rotting meat.

Zhe Botai jumped off the rock, his expression was full of joy, "Oh, you are finally here. I stayed here for one night, and my soul was almost scared to see Changshengtian."

"Is the night in the Black Forest so scary?" Stannis didn't expect that he was also an oriental guy, and this guy was as timid as himself.

Jabotai was choked by his words, and he carefully looked at the group of people who came. Only the lord looked relaxed and understood instantly. He pointed to Stannis and asked the others, "He doesn't know yet?"

Everyone nodded solemnly.

Stannis felt like he was being played like a monkey.

Zhe Botai cautiously suggested: "Then you don't talk to him, lest the nobleman can't accept it for a while?"

"You guys, what are you doing? It's like playing charades. If you do this again, I'm really angry!" Stannis shouted loudly.

"The matter started yesterday afternoon," Bachelor Romond finally began to talk, "We received a message from the village below. When two hunters were hunting for prey in the forest, they accidentally entered the depths of the forest. The family that disappeared last time was found later."

Stannis began to have a bad feeling.

"That family is one of the few families living on the east bank of the river. A pair of parents and a pair of children live together alone, away from the crowds, so when they disappeared, we considered them to have moved away. "

The lord nodded, so far, the situation is pretty normal.

"But if they moved out, no matter how hurried they would take away a few clothes and financial assets, but at that time these things were all in good condition at home, and the food that was going to be eaten the next day was still hot in the pot."

Hearing what he said, Stannis also felt strange.

"and then?"

"Then..." Maester Romond didn't say any more, so Robert took over, "They're behind that stone now, they're all dead."

A sense of powerless despair spread throughout Stannis' body. The sunny sky just now was instantly covered by countless dark clouds, and the surroundings became extremely dark.

The beautiful and interesting fairy tale life has been ruthlessly punctured, and it is time for the farce to end. From now on, he will really touch the darkest side of the world.

"Dead?" He asked tremblingly. If I remember correctly, this was the first murder case he had touched under the territory since crossing.

"We didn't tell you before because we were afraid that you would not be able to bear this kind of blow, because we have never seen this kind of death before." Bachelor Romon calmed his emotions gently, thinking of the younger generation like a kind elder .

Stannis' mind went blank. "Mode of death?"

"Dismember the body, all four."
