Chapter 545 The fog shadow


    “Huh………”


    After dinner, Duanmuhuai also leaned on the chair and breathed a sigh of relief.


    "King, haven''t you found that demon dog yet?"


    At this time, Lorena also came over and asked curiously.


    "I escaped by it. By the way, this kind of game of waiting for the dog is really not suitable for me. I hate hide and seek the most."


    Duanmu Huai waved his hand boredly, looking speechless.


    "It won''t attack the rest of the town, right?"


    "It''s hard to say... Then again, even why it targeted the Baskerville family is actually a mystery."


    Fairy tales are fairy tales after all. In the final analysis, only the ancestor at that time knew what was going on. Although some players will summon souls to inquire about the situation through magic such as necromancer, it is a pity that Duanmu Huai does not have the ability and skills in this area - he is the God of Destruction after all.


    If you want to crush your soul to pieces, that is what he is good at.


    "How is the Baroness over there?"


    "She has been in a barely improving recently, but she is not in good health... Well, what should I say..."


    Speaking of this, Lorena pondered for a moment.


    "From my perspective, the Baroness may have children."


    "Oh? Really, have you asked her to take a doctor to see it?"


    "She seemed to know that she was thinking. She originally planned to wait for Christmas and ask the doctor to come and see it, but in my opinion, it should be similar. After all, as a priest, we also have to be responsible for some of this matter. Her situation is very similar to those ladies I met in the church."


    "Then you have to take good care of her. I think that dog might just stare at this and didn''t leave."


    At least for the moment, the people of the Baskerville family have been attacked by the magic dog. Although the Baskerville Basquerade married to the Baskerville family, strictly speaking, it is not related to the Baskerville clan, if she has children from the Baskerville clan, it would be another matter.


    "Okay, I understand, Lord Knight."


    Lorena also nodded seriously.


    "Then I''ll go out for a walk."


    After dinner, Duanmuhuai felt a little bored, so he stood up and stretched.


    "Do you go out at this time?"


    "Like you said, maybe that guy will attack the residents of the town. Just pay attention to protecting the ladies and the others here. I''ll go around the town."


    Duanmu Huai was not talking nonsense. In fact, he finally followed the trace of the monster and disappeared after finding the foot of the mountain. In other words, the monster is likely to have sneaked into the town. Of course, it was normal or okay, but it was injured by Duanmuhuai before, and the injured animals are very dangerous. Although today is Christmas and most people spend this time at home, Duanmuhuai still plans to go and have a look.


    Duanmuhuai walked out of the restaurant and came to the entrance. Just as he was about to go out, Mary came over.


    "Hey? Mr. Duanmu, where are you going so late??"


    "I plan to go to the town and inspect it."


    "Can I go together too?"


    Hearing Duanmuhuai''s answer, Mary''s eyes lit up and she hurriedly asked.


    "You? Don''t you chat with your friends?"


    “Ahhahaha…this…”


    Hearing this, Mary couldn''t help but smile bitterly. This is why she wanted to go out with Duanmu Huai. It was really that Asherika and Charlie were asking about their relationship with Mr. Duanmu. Mary clearly felt that there was nothing between her and Duanmu Huai, but they seemed to have decided that there must be some secret between them - by the way, there must be a secret, but I can''t tell you.


    You can''t talk about it with Charlie about it in Antarctica, there are some ancient people, Shuges, monsters, etc....


    As a result, the more Mary concealed it, the more she made Charlie and Asherika feel that there was something in her heart, which made Mari almost cry without tears. It would be fine with Asherika, Charlie, you are the culprit of all this, okay... Of course, Mary definitely can''t say this to Charlie.


    So when she heard that Duanmuhuai was going out, she hurriedly wanted to find an excuse to leave.


    Otherwise, if you continue to be asked by the two of you, you won’t know what will happen.


    "Okay, be careful to keep warm to avoid getting sick."


    Duanmu Huai did not object. On the one hand, he was idle and idle. On the other hand... I have to say that he also wanted to see if the golden eyes were attractive to the magic dog.


    After all, this can be regarded as the Western version of Tang Monk’s meat. Maybe that magic dog is better than this one?


    If this is the case, it will be much easier to encounter similar things in the future. Just release Tang Monk and then attract monsters to take the bait.


    Just like Journey to the West, monsters came to catch Tang Monk and ate meat, and then were beaten to death by Sun Wukong. It was so convenient.


    Well, if you say this, Mari is Tang Monk, she is Sun Wukong, and Lorena is Sha Monk?


    So who is Zhu Bajie?


    ……It doesn’t matter if you don’t have it, after all, it’s not really going to get the scriptures.


    After changing her clothes, Duanmuhuai and Mary left Baskerville Manor and walked along the street towards the town.


    It was already late at night, and the whole town had already fallen asleep, but because it was Christmas, the entire street was decorated with lights and lanterns. It''s not as dark as usual. On the contrary, the whole town looks shining, but it looks quite fairy tale-like.


    It would be even more interesting if there was another Santa Claus at this time.


    "How are you doing recently? Is everything going well?"


    Duanmuhuai walked on the street and asked casually that Duanmuhuai was not surprised by Mary''s appearance. The reason - well, it would be fine if you don''t say it.


    "Fortunately, everyone returned to their previous lives and felt very happy. Although they were a little uneasy during that period,... it seems that everything is worth it now."


    Looking up at the snowflakes falling from the sky, Mary couldn''t help but sigh. This reminded her of the days when she went to Antarctica, and now she is back here and then recalling what happened before, Mary even thought she was dreaming... or she still feels very unreal when she thinks about it now.


    But then again...


    "I''ll start thinking about graduation next year..."


    "What are you thinking about the thing I said before?"


    "Uh... do you mean inviting me to join the court?"


    “That’s right.”


    Duanmuhuai nodded and looked at Mary. The golden eyes are really good... To be honest, Duanmuhuai also wants it, but unfortunately there is nothing we can do.


    And Duanmu Huai also heard Mari talk about the situation at that time. You must know that Mari was just an ordinary lady, but she was able to rely on her golden eyes to see through the opponent''s attack trajectory, and even dodge and fight instinctively - what the **** is this a plug-in bug?


    To be honest, compared with Mary''s golden eyes, Duanmu Huai felt that his system was no longer fragrant.


    After all, the system needs to be upgraded, and Mary''s golden eyes are really omnipotent!


    The only flaw is that Mary herself is still a little weak, but as long as she exercises diligently, learns some basic knowledge of combat, and cooperates with the power of the Golden Eyes, it is estimated that it will not be a problem to reach the level of guarding the dark night.


    Tsk tsk, this is the real cheating.


    Duanmuhuai did not hear about the existence of the NPC Mary in the game. I don’t know if it was because it did not appear or the players did not discover it. However, Duanmu Huai felt that the latter was unlikely. Even if he didn''t mention the golden eyes, a girl as beautiful as Mary would never be able to let go of it as an old pornographic player.


    After all, when ordinary players recruit NPCs, they either look at the strength, appearance, or rareness.


    Mary, who has golden eyes, has all her strength and looks. In the game, she has long become a stolen person in the forum''s NPC ladder list - at least at T1 level.


    I don’t know if I can emit laser light from my golden pupils?


    For example, what are the real light beams?


    Uh...it shouldn''t be possible.


    “Will the work of the trial court be very dangerous?”


    Duanmu Huai did not hide it. After all, this is the fact. Moreover, with the characteristics of Mary''s golden eyes, she might have gone to the court, and the danger is much greater than that now.


    "Although I will protect you as much as possible, you need to exercise and train how to fight and deal with the enemy. The work of the court is sometimes cruel. At least the things you are facing now are basically pediatrics compared to the work of the court."


    Duanmu Huai still has to explain the matter clearly to Mary. Although the golden eyes are really precious, Mary is indeed an ordinary girl who can''t be more ordinary, so Duanmu Huai even has a headache in this regard.


    After all, this world is more peaceful than other worlds. If it were a place like a novice village, even ordinary young girls would either get used to fighting or know that there were monsters in this world that would threaten them, so they were actually very receptive in this regard.


    For example, the students from Manalia College before were about the same age as Mary, and they were all well-educated noble ladies. However, when facing enemies and demons, they were also not ruthless and killed as soon as they should, and they would kill them at every turn. This is also because they were born in such a world and naturally they have long been used to the situation where monsters threaten their lives.


    But Mary is different. She is actually more like a person in the real world. Even if she encounters any danger, she will not think about counterattacking the other party at the first time. In a country like Lisas or Seth, even when facing monsters, it is unlikely that Mary will choose to fight against the other party.


    So in this regard, Duanmu Huai has some headaches, and I wonder if she can change it.


    Although Mary is very kind, in the court, kindness is often not a good quality.


    “………………”


    Sure enough, when he heard Duanmu Huai''s answer, Mary fell into silence.


    "Don''t want to do dangerous work?"


    "No one wants to do dangerous work. Although I want to try it too, I don''t want Charlie and Asherika to worry about me..."


    Mary also sighed, which was also one of her hesitation. Although going to the courtroom to work seems to be a good choice, if it is too dangerous, it will make her friends worry, which makes Mary hesitant.


    "It is indeed necessary to consider it carefully. After all, if you really go to the court, the risk factor can be higher than in the movie."


    "Hey? Is it so exaggerated?"


    "certainly."


    After all, to die in the movie, it is just a building that can be blown up, but the extinction orders of the Inquisition are calculated based on the planet.


    "Why…………"


    Mary sighed again. She was indeed a little hesitant. The work of the court sounded dangerous, but she felt that she needed to repay Duanmu Huai. After all, Duanmu Huai has helped him so much, but if the job is too dangerous, will it backfire? Having said that, what can I do in the court?


    Thinking of this, Mary also looked at Duanmu Huai and raised her inner questions.


    "Of course it''s the golden eye. Your eye has a huge effect on the Inquisition, but you don''t realize it yourself."


    "To be honest, I really don''t feel how special this eye is..."


    Hearing Duanmuhuai''s answer, Mary stretched out her hand and touched her right eye with a complicated expression. Although Duanmuhuai said it more than once, and those monsters seemed to be sniping at her right eye, Mary really didn''t think there was anything particularly powerful about her right eye. If you want to say it, you will see it more clearly in some places...


    "The way is simple...this is the most powerful."


    Looking at Mary''s reaction, Duanmu Huai also sighed silently. The real bug equipment is about the Golden Eyes. I don''t seem to think it is very powerful at all, but for others, being able to easily see through the illusion that others cannot see through at a glance is enough to make people feel amazing. Especially for monsters like Pink Fearing Demons who are best at transformation and illusions, even Duanmu Huai can only rely on his own fear aura or the experience of the judge to distinguish them, but Mary can immediately see through the other party''s true body with just one glance - the gap between the two is like the weapon gap used in World War I and modern warfare.


    Like in the past, soldiers were difficult to detect when they were hidden in the bushes, and they could only be detected by experienced generals. However, in modern warfare, an infrared drone would be locked directly for you, and no skills were needed. This is the generational dissatisfaction.


    Mary''s golden eyes are like the latter. If used well, it will be a pure crush.


    What''s even more amazing is that there is almost no consumption.


    "If you want, you can try it, and besides that, it''s good to use it as a bait."


    “…Hey? Bait?”


    “That’s right, just like now.”


    As he spoke, Duanmu Huai stopped, and then Mary, who was following him, also stopped and turned around to look around. Then she was surprised to find that at some point, they had arrived near the square in the center of the town. Of course, there were also lights and lights everywhere. But for some reason, thick fog seemed to gradually emerge around. Under the light, you could only see a fog around you, and you could not even see the houses not far away clearly.


    Not only that……


    “Roar woo woo woo woo woo woo……”


    "What''s the sound? Mr. Duanmu, is it a wild dog?"


    "Who knows? At least now, Tang Monk''s flesh is still quite attractive."


    Although there are no golden eyes, Duanmu Huai had actually noticed that something was following them secretly, and it was obvious that the other party was not coming for him. After all, it ran away when it hit itself several times in the mountains and forests. The only thing that can be explained is that the golden eyes are so tempting. Now it seems that this monster obviously can''t stand the temptation of Tang Seng''s flesh and plans to fight.


    Is this thing really that tempting?


    In Journey to the West, monsters want to eat Tang Monk’s meat because they can live forever. So what can they get after eating the golden eyes?


    Forget it, let’s talk about it then.


    "Be careful and hide behind me."


    Duanmu Huai clenched her fists and spoke to Mary--the previous cane had been used in Antarctica and had not been replaced yet. However, for Duanmu Huai, it is not a big problem to deal with a wild dog, bare hands and empty fists.


    "Roar———!!"


    Finally, the other party seemed to be unable to bear it. With a low growl, the next moment, a black shadow suddenly rushed out of the fog and rushed towards Mary.


    “Wow!”


    Mary seemed to be shocked in the face of the sudden attack, but even so, her body seemed to instinctively turn backwards and avoid the black shadow''s attack.


    Tsk tsk, the golden eyes are really amazing.


    "Roar——!"


    The black shadow, who failed to hit the blow, stretched out his claws again and grabbed Mary. At the same time, Duanmu Huai suddenly turned around, clenched his fists, and directly rushed towards the black shadow in front of him!


    "Bang!!"


    Duanmu Huai''s iron fist hit the black shadow directly, and the blurry shadow exploded instantly under Duanmu Huai''s iron fist, completely shattering like a blown balloon. But this obviously did not end. Soon, a series of barking sounded again. When I turned around, I could see dark shadows like hunting dogs everywhere.


    “Woof woof!”


    “Wo Wang--!!”


    The dog barking sounded one after another, and it seemed like hundreds of hunting dogs were completely surrounded by the fog. Even Mary''s face was pale when she saw this scene.


    "Duan, Mr. Duanmu!"


    "Don''t worry, this is just a little bit of a word. Have you seen anything strange?"


    "this…………"


    Hearing Duanmuhuai''s inquiry, Mary looked around and then looked at a path not far away.


    "It seems like there is a strange shadow over there..."


    "Let''s go!"
