Open Your Quest Log Chapter 415

A day in hell, in the world, this, seems to be a day...

Holy Arathor Kingdom, San Nino City, 104 Manson Middle Street, 'Never Water' Tavern.

The midday sun was warm and bright, and the tavern owner 'Benjamin' in a brown coat opened the door of the tavern as usual and stepped into it.

The inside of the tavern is quite dark, and there is also a mixture of alcohol and leftovers. Benjamin stopped for a moment at the door to allow his eyes to adjust to the dark environment. After that, he hung his coat on the hanger beside the door, and skillfully removed the few shutters on the window that had been in use for many years.

The dazzling sun shines through the glass, bringing a little light to the dark tavern.

The well water in early spring was still freezing to the bone. The tavern owner wringed out the rag with his frozen red hands, carefully wiped the counter, tables and chairs, and used brooms and mops to clean up the **** on the ground one by one.

When everything was ready, Benjamin walked to the door of the tavern, looked at the bleak and empty streets on the left and right, and sighed uncontrollably. The white misty breath dissipated in an instant, the tavern owner rubbed his sour nose, reversed the wooden sign hanging by the door, turned the side with the word 'open' out, and walked in again .

There were few pedestrians on the empty street, and a few wild dogs approached the tavern cautiously, trying to rummage for food from the garbage thrown by Benjamin before. But before they actually got close to the garbage, the wild dogs stopped at the same time, looked up in the same direction, and then turned and fled in a panic.

A whole team of heavily armed patrols came from a distance with serious expressions, and the man in the lead stared at the strange round alchemy item in his hand, refusing to move it away.

When the patrol arrived in front of the garbage, the leader suddenly stopped and turned his head to look in the direction of the tavern. He first looked at this humble tavern on the street, and then looked at the alchemy item in his hand with a puzzled expression.

After hesitating for a few seconds, the captain raised his hand and pointed at the pub on the street. The next moment, the surrounding patrol members were well-trained and formed a battle formation, slowly surrounding the target.

The captain pulled out the long sword from his waist, and led a few team members into the tavern cautiously. After a while, the patrolmen and the tavern owner came out at the same time. The leading patrol captain smiled apologetically at Benjamin, opened his mouth and said something else, and then led the team forward.

With a sincere smile on his face, the tavern owner watched the patrol go further and further away. When the group of figures turned the corner and disappeared, he slowly put away his smile and turned to sadness and sadness, standing by the street for a long time and did not want to go back.

At this time, about two months have passed since the terrifying devil invasion incident, but the entire city of San Nino is still immersed in grief, especially the area shrouded in the dark red sky, which is even more casualties. bitter.

Although the official number of casualties is still not given at the moment, but it is making great efforts to eliminate the remaining demons, but Benjamin heard other people talk about it, and the final casualty number will definitely not be less than 10,000.

Among the 10,000 people who have passed away, there are Benjamin's father, wife, and children.

He stood in the counter, slowly wiping the wine glass in his hand with a dry cotton cloth, but his eyes were staring blankly at the void, and his thoughts had already drifted to the day of the incident.

When the dark red sky was covered from the sky, Benjamin was busy in the tavern just like this time. In addition to him and the newly recruited guy, there were a few regulars who had nothing to do in the tavern that day.

At that time, the waiter named 'Barritt' was upstairs and his friend didn't know what he was talking about. Because it was still daytime, the tavern's business was not busy at all, so Benjamin turned a blind eye to the lazy behavior of the tall guy, who let himself pay less wages.

Then, the whole sky suddenly turned bloody, and Benjamin walked out of the tavern with several regulars. Like other pedestrians on the street, he looked up at this magical sight in amazement.

Everyone's expressions were mixed with excitement and confusion. Some even speculated that this might be the beginning of the New Year's celebration. Others swore to express their affirmation, saying that he had seen this fashionable way of celebrating with his own eyes in other cities.

The excitement and boasting did not last long, and the figures of those terrifying demons appeared one after another on the street, and the number became more and more numerous.

The slaughter began, and the heart-piercing screams and mourning filled the entire area in an instant.

The newly recruited tall waiter and his friends kept shouting something to the panicked crowd, but Benjamin didn't hear what they were shouting. There was only one thing in his mind at the time - family.

The location of the tavern is at the edge of the sky. If Benjamin wants to go home, he can only go in the direction the devil came from. He hesitated for only half a second at that time, and then took the cover of the panicked crowd and flew towards the home.

However, when he avoided the pursuit of several devils and finally ran to his home, all he saw was a place of corpses soaked in blood. After that, as if he had lost his soul, he stood there blankly, looking at the family members lying on the ground, and never moved.

After an unknown amount of time, he vaguely remembered that several combatants in the armor of the Kingdom's army came to his home, and one of them kept shouting at him, but at that time, Benjamin's world was silent, and nothing could be done. hear. Then the man waved to his companion and knocked him unconscious with a punch...

It wasn't until he woke up from the shelter that he really understood the subsequent development of the whole incident.

Benjamin heard that it was because of the dark red curtain in the sky that those cruel devils kept emerging, and it also prevented the mages and other reinforcements from entering.

Later, it seemed that someone broke into the center of the devil's army and shattered something that was maintaining the sky, which eased the situation and enabled survivors like him to survive.

When the dark red sky disappeared, many people saw with their own eyes that a pure black magic tower appeared above the city out of thin air. It first continuously shot a deep purple arcane ray from the diamond-shaped crystal at the top of the tower. The ray lasted for about a quarter of an hour.

As for whether there will be accidental injuries, no one has ever mentioned it, and there should be none.

After the ray, the magic tower threw many construct golems even taller than ogres towards the central area. Emotionless steel golems and ugly and cruel devil remnants fought together, and the brutal and fierce fighting demolished many houses and houses.

As for whether there are still survivors hidden in these collapsed buildings, no one has ever mentioned it, and there should be none.

Guards and adventurers from other areas of the city also participated in the battle, advancing slowly from the outside to destroy the invading enemies along with the construct golems in the central area. But the situation at the time was really chaotic, and still allowed a few devils to escape.

After that, the kingdom's 'Oak Leaf' Corps took over the city's guarding work. They used the alchemy items provided by the mage to search the city for demons or traces related to demons. Those patrolling guards who came to the store before. , is the person of this legion.

In this tavern, I heard that two ugly devils with spikes all over their bodies have died. I think this is why those patrolling guards come here, Benjamin thought.

The door was pushed open again, and a woman with long bright blond hair stepped in. This woman has a pair of gentle purple eyes. Whenever she laughs, it always makes Benjamin feel a very complicated and strange emotion - shame, self-blame, annoyance, and an irresistible trace of heartbeat .

"Morning, Bethelina." He greeted the woman.

"It's already afternoon, boss." The woman chuckled, and took off her long cotton coat and hung it next to Benjamin's coat, "Why don't we start a fire? We won't be so poor that we can't even buy firewood. Get up."

us? Is she talking about us? For some reason, Benjamin is a little sensitive to this word.

The woman named 'Besserina' in front of him is his new waiter. She said that she came to San Nino to join her relatives, and she never expected to encounter such a terrible thing. After the incident, she panicked and fled to the tavern to hide, never dared to come out until...

Until Benjamin found her in the kitchen where the turnips were stored, but she was still bright and moving with a dusty face.

Later, Benjamin thought it was just an ordinary encounter, but it didn't take long for the woman to come to the tavern again. She said that the relative she defected to died unfortunately at the hands of the devil, and she has no family anymore. She is very lonely in this strange city, but she doesn't know where to go.

Are you lonely? Benjamin felt the same way. "Then come over and help me first." He said this in a ghostly way at the time, but the other party actually nodded in agreement...

"Hey, boss, I'm talking to you!" Besserina shook her hand in front of him.

"Sorry, what did you just say?" Benjamin was a little embarrassed.

"I said, why don't you live? Don't you feel cold?"

"Oh, I forgot," Benjamin explained. "The sun just hit me from the window, so I didn't feel cold."

"I can't stand it." The woman walked towards the fireplace, put some firewood next to it, and skillfully built the fire, "Wow, it's so comfortable!" She put her hands close to the fire and sighed with satisfaction He continued, "It's really cold. If you don't make a fire, it's time for those drunkards to complain again after a while."

As soon as she finished speaking, old Todd, who lived near the tavern, walked in slowly. "A glass of mulled wine with spices and honey." Old Todd said, "This **** weather is colder than the day the devil invaded."

"Anything else? Uncle Todd?" the woman by the fireplace asked.

"A kiss, if you're willing to give it." Old Todd smiled happily, "Besserina, you are getting more beautiful day by day, and I believe that one day, your beauty will suffocate everyone!"

"Thank you!" Besserina's face showed that intoxicating smile again, "What you said is like poetry."

Cut ~www.mtlnovel.com~ the lines in the opera "What is True Love". Benjamin pouted in his heart.

"I was a famous bard when I was young!" old Todd boasted.

"Really?" Bethelina showed an expression of surprise and admiration.

That expression made Benjamin feel a little uncomfortable in his heart. You were only a servant of the nobles when you were young, and this is something that the inhabitants of the city know!

"Also, don't call me uncle, I'm not a few years older than your boss." Old Todd straightened his hunched body, trying to make himself look younger.

Twenty is not too short. Benjamin smiled at the other party.

When old Todd saw Betherina walking towards the kitchen, he turned to him and said, "Hey, did you hear that?"

"What did you hear?" Benjamin asked suspiciously.

"Our benefactor, the man who smashed the dark red hood, his whereabouts are clear." Old Todd said, "Isn't there a lot of theories before, some people said that he was directly killed when the explosion occurred, There are also people who say that he was rescued by the mage, and that the spatial rift created by the explosion caused him to get lost in the rain. Now, there is finally a definitive statement."

"What do you say?" Benjamin's expression was solemn and curious, and he was also full of gratitude for the unknown person.

"That man is dead!" Old Todd vowed. "The patrol found that man's weapon in the center of the explosion. It was a rather sharp battle axe. What a pity!" He shook his head.

"What a pity." The tavern owner whispered.
