Sword Sorcery - Chapter 172

[Chapter 172 Small Town]

Whoops~!

A gust of wind blew on Aaron’s body, bringing a slightly ‘cool’ touch, combined with the dark and deep sky and the faint sound of wind whistling, people couldn’t feel what summer should look like at all— —

It’s not like the summer season in July or August at all, but like a cold, dry and cold winter.

Aaron turned to look at the town in front of him. It was a lonely and cold town. Only the three rows of houses in the center of the town were preserved. The place.

Even some houses outside the town have collapsed into pieces, becoming a paradise for some wild cats and small animals.

The streets in the town are dirty and gray. It seems that no one cleans them. The only way to clean them is ‘rainy days’.

Unfortunately, the air is relatively humid now, but there is no sign of rain, resulting in a sticky muddy road. Stepping on it with one foot can squeeze out a few air bubbles on the mud surface.

It seems that Hart is right. Twilight Town should have been a good-sized town. Unfortunately, the long-term semi-abandoned state has made Twilight Town into the virtue it is now.

There are very few existing buildings in the whole town. Aaron swept the three rows of houses in the center of the town at a glance, and found that in addition to more than 30 ordinary houses, there was only one grocery store in the whole town, one with a tavern below and a hotel above. ‘Hotel’ – this place is so shabby that the word ‘hotel’ is a disgrace.

“It’s really deserted. It seems that this Twilight Town has more than 100 people at best, right?”

Aaron shook his head and walked towards the only ‘hotel’ in town.

This is a ‘hotel’ whose appearance is not much different from that of ordinary houses. If it weren’t for the sign with the icon of ‘Wine Glass and Wagon’ hanging on the house, it is estimated that Aaron would not recognize its real function.

Squeak~!

Aaron pushed open the door of the tavern, and the dilapidated wooden door made a ‘squeak’ sound, better than a bell, which reminded the owner quite timely that a customer was coming.

In less than a few seconds, a middle-aged boss with a big belly came downstairs with a surprised look on his face. He probably didn’t expect any customers to come here.

“Hello, welcome to Twilight Bar.”

The middle-aged boss walked to the front of the bar table, took out a rag from under the table, and wiped it on the table.

It’s a pity that the dust on the table is too thick, and the rags are directly stuck on one yard……

“All right……..”

The middle-aged boss simply gave up the act of cleaning up and complained to Aaron: “Welcome to this damn ghost place, this gentleman, what kind of service do you need? Food, lodging, or ‘other’ service? If What you need is the latter…”

“With all due respect, this damn place has no ‘other’ services.”

“If you really need ‘services’, try to find other residents of the town, such as ladies in their late forties, I’m afraid they are still interested in making ‘extra income’ – as long as you can Can stand that ‘experience’.”

The middle-aged boss’s expression was very helpless. It seemed that he had no hope at all about the bad situation of this place.

“A clean and tidy…at least not too dirty room, and at least a decent dinner.”

Aaron took into account the ‘performance’ of the middle-aged boss, so he had to lower the standard a bit – after all, there is only one ‘hotel’ in the whole town.

After that, Aaron took out a few gold coins from the bag and threw them to the middle-aged boss.

The middle-aged boss hurriedly caught the gold coin and bit it with his teeth,

After confirming the authenticity, he immediately changed his face to a happy smile and responded, “Don’t worry, sir, don’t look at the appearance of this tavern being a bit shabby, in fact, the room upstairs is still very clean… .”

Having said that, the middle-aged boss was also a little embarrassed. He hurriedly found a bucket and went back to fill some water.

Then, the middle-aged boss roughly cleaned the entire bar table with a rag dipped in clean water, which gave it a bit of a tavern look.

“Okay, trust me, the room upstairs is still very clean…”

The middle-aged boss shrugged and continued: “In terms of diet, I can only provide one serving of bean stew and bread tonight, but I also eat this stuff myself, you can rest assured about the safety of the food. ”

“If you have no objection, then I will continue to cook dinner. You can rest assured about the amount of food. There are enough beans and meat in the kitchen. If you add it to the pot and cook it over high heat, you can enjoy it at the same time as me. A wonderful dinner.”

Aaron acquiesced to the other party’s proposal, so the middle-aged boss poured Aaron a large glass of ale, turned around and went back to the kitchen to continue his work – there was only ale left in the entire tavern, which shows how bad the situation is.

Aaron shook the slightly cloudy glass of coarse ale, and sipped it without hesitation, thinking about the relevant information that had been pried out of Hilton’s mouth–

The entrance to Mirror Manor is in Twilight Town.

However, there are regulations and restrictions on the opening time of Magic Mirror Manor. The entrance to the manor will only be opened at 10:00 pm on August 5th every year, and it will last for about 8 hours.

Once the duration is up, the entrance to the manor will close itself.

This means that if the intruder does not come out by 6 am the next morning, they will be trapped inside the Mirror Manor until the next year when the Mirror Manor reopens, and the entrance to the manor will not be opened again. appear.

By that time, the intruder must have died with nothing left.

As for the possibility of surviving in the Magic Mirror Manor for a year and then coming out through the entrance of the manor?

Don’t think about it, that’s absolutely impossible.

This is no joke, because according to the information provided by Hilton, Magic Mirror Manor is likely to be a resource base for ancient wizards——

Ancient Ruins!

There are countless traps and traps in the ancient ruins, and there are also dazzling resources. Even for formal wizards, it is a place worthy of adventure and full of danger.

It is impossible for any existence in the shaman realm to survive in the ancient ruins for a year.

However, the ancient ruins are also full of opportunities. Since Hilton got “Rite of Pride” in it, then Aaron must also give it a try, and maybe get something better.

In particular, at present, the ‘Magic Mirror Manor’ is a hidden location that has not been discovered by any wizarding academy—

The regular opening of the ‘Magic Mirror Manor’ makes its existence difficult to discover. Even the wizard students sent by the Wizarding Academy to investigate the disappearance, if it is not coincidentally that they hit the opening time, it is estimated that they will not find any clues.

“There are still three days before the opening of Magic Mirror Manor, so I have to make some preparations in advance…”

While Aaron was thinking, the middle-aged boss came out with a large pot of bean stew and placed it in front of Aaron with a slap. A strong aroma of meat spread out, making Aaron move his index finger.

“It smells good, boss, it seems that your craftsmanship is not bad……”

Aaron raised his head while speaking, but the next moment, his pupils shrank suddenly——

There is nothing in front of me, where is the figure of the middle-aged boss?

There was only one pot of bean stew left, steaming hot. …
