Apocalyptic Dragonborn Lord

Chapter 312 Offerings
"But..." Stannis still wanted to refute him. After all, he had only witnessed the atrocities of those goblins. He really didn't know whether this goblin named Hailiana was deliberately pretending to be a good person like his kind. I believe that these monsters are already bad to the bone.

"It's decided like this. Hayley will take you to the square. Every second now, the monsters bred by Tucker are getting stronger and stronger. By then, I'm afraid it will be too late."

"I thought you were indifferent to the town."

"I'm not for this town, I just don't want to see more people die in this worthless thing."

"It's not arrogant..."

After Corvo finished speaking, he no longer gave him a chance to refute, and Stannis also knew that it was useless to say anything now.

"Okay, but if that banshee betrays me, I won't let you go even if I'm a ghost. By the way, can you give me a sword?"

Both of Stannis' weapons were lost in the crypt of Oak Town. He must not be allowed to fight others with his fists when he is in danger!

But this simple request made Kovo very embarrassed, "I don't have any weapons here."

Stannis suspected that he had misheard, "What, as a dignified soldier or a senior officer, let alone a bunch of artifacts, the entire warehouse should be filled with high-quality weapons. no!"

"Because Hailiana said she was afraid of these shiny things." Corvo didn't change his face.

"..."

"When I rescued you, I still went there with a weeding sickle."

"..."

"By the way, there is still a hatchet here, do you want to use it first?"

"..."

Stannis pushed open the door and came out with a black face. Not only were there rows of bottles and jars of colorful potions hanging on his belt, but he also had a rusty hatchet pinned to it, although he doubted that the blunt knife Maybe even a ghost with iron skin can't be hacked to death.

Corvo followed behind him, and the Laughing Man was still carrying the huge grass scythe instead of the machete that the lord had always thought.

Hailiana approached them as if she had been waiting for a long time. Stannis, who already knew her true identity, couldn't help but silently clenched his fists. It was absolutely impossible for him to let go of his guard against ghosts.

But the woman didn't care about his unfriendliness at all. In her eyes, only the task was the most important.

"Is everything ready?" The goblin seemed to be more active in destroying the pumpkin than humans.

Kovo nodded, "I've been taking care of you for a long time, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to say goodbye this time."

Stannis curled his lips aside: "I said it's not good to say such unlucky words at the beginning..."

"Where's Kimberly?" Corvo looked up again to look for his old friend.

"Here it is!" A drunken voice came from under the big tree, and Kimberly staggered towards them. He seemed to have drunk a lot of alcohol again.

But Corvo didn't mean to blame him at all. Everyone knew that this was a journey of death, but Kimberly, the former mayor of the town, was still willing to go, although there was nothing worth saving in Oak Town.

"Old man, don't drink too much, I still need your loud voice to lure those bastards out of bed."

But Kimberly laughed loudly, not taking this life-related matter to heart at all, "Don't worry, the more drunk I am, the louder my voice will be."

"It's eight o'clock in the evening. We have decided to act at twelve o'clock, which is when the bright moon rises to its highest point. Is there a problem?"

Everyone shook their heads, only Stannis asked worriedly, "Since we're all gone, isn't there no one to take care of the house? Then who will take care of Evelyn and Anya."

"I'll just come."

With a familiar female voice, Stannis turned his head and found that Evelyn, who was seriously injured, was able to get out of bed. Although she could only walk around with a cane, it took less than a day to recover from her injury to this point. It's a miracle.

"Spell hunters are indeed masters at using divine arts." Wall didn't seem very surprised. During his nearly ten-year military career, he had been rescued by priests countless times.

Stannis still approached her uneasy and asked in a low voice: "Are you really okay, Yoyo? Don't force yourself too much."

Evelyn shook her head at him with a bright smile, "It's okay, Anya can leave it to me."

Seeing how different she was from the past, Stannis couldn't say anything more, he just gave the girl a thumbs up, expressing that he would definitely be able to complete the task and come back alive.

Corvo didn't have time to watch the couple chatting over there, he interrupted them and said: "Now that everything is arranged, everyone is ready to go, today we will take back Oak Town from them .”

Then the four of them set off in two ways. Wall and Kimberly went to the south of the town to attract the attention of the goblins, while Stannis and Hailiana climbed up the cliff in the north of the town and sneaked into the town secretly.

Along the way, just in case, Stannis deliberately followed Heliana. The nightmare of being betrayed by Amin cast a shadow in his heart. He didn't want to be attacked by this ghost again.

But Hailiana has been leading the way silently in this way. She moves skillfully and stops from time to time to see if there are ghosts staring at them. She repeatedly checks every place where there may be sentries until she is sure. There was no one inside before moving on.

I didn't expect the monster to be more careful than me, but why is she so familiar with this place?

After walking for half an hour, the hungry and bored Stannis finally couldn't control his mouth and started talking to the other party.

"Helianna, how come you are so familiar with this place as a ghost?"

The woman didn't look back, she used her nose to detect if there was any similar smell in the air, and she continued to answer after it was absolutely safe.

"Because I have lived here for two years, and I came with Tucker."

"What!" Stannis pulled out the hatchet at once, and he knew that the gang of goblins belonged to the same group.

But Facing the 'weapon' in his hands, Hailiana showed no signs of fear, she didn't even stop.

"Don't worry, I'm not your enemy. I dream of killing Tucker just like you."

"Why?" Stannis heard from her tone that the demon was full of hatred for Mayor Tucker, which was definitely not something that could be pretended.

Hailiana turned her head. Under the moonlight, her pupils turned silver, and her teeth were as sharp as knives. Under the rage, she couldn't maintain her human appearance.

"Because he also deceived everyone in our ghost clan!"
