Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 1262
Episode 1262. you! That’s Fabian Cloud!
There is a road at the beginning of the great forest.
It was because the long-cherished business of the ancient dynasties was to advance into the Abyss in the center of the Great Forest.
However, the efforts of the ancient dynasties were thwarted by the attacks of beasts and monsters.
The length of the road built by the ancient kingdom is approximately 100 kilometers.
Even so, the shape of the road was maintained only up to 50 km, after which it was eaten by the forest.
So, the field training of the Adria Kingdom Academy senior class was only up to 50 kilometers.
Road covered with tree roots and weeds ended.
Baron Howard Solon, who was walking in the lead with Crea, hesitated in front of a thick brush.
“Is this the right way?”
“that’s right. The trees are small compared to the surroundings. It means new growth on the road.”
“There is a road under this forest?”
“yes. If you dig the bottom, the flagstone that covered the road will come out.”
“Wow! The forces of nature are frightening.”
“It is said that plants grow especially well in the Great Forest. They said that grass or trees could take root on the rocks instead of moss.”
“Isn’t that a monster rather than a plant?”
“If the growth of plants had not been rapid, the great forest would have already been destroyed by humans?”
At that time, Elio and the others arrived in front of the thicket one by one.
Seeing that the leader had stopped, Elio asked Baron Solon.
“Why don’t you go? Have you already lost your way? You said you could go see the constellations? Or should I wait until nightfall?”
“no. From now on, it’s a forest road, so I’m going to tell you that…”
Baron Solon roughly evaded it.
In fact, he had been idling around in front of the copse, but he couldn’t tell the truth.
“okay? Okay, so let’s keep going.”
Elio did not think deeply about the reason for Baron Solon’s hesitation.
Soon after, Baron Solon and Crea entered the copse first.
Baron Solon, who had been walking for a long time in the lead of the group, hesitated again.
“Crea.”
“yes?”
“Stop. There is something.”
“Is it a beast?”
Surprised, Crea quickly drew out her longsword.
This is because advanced beasts are dangerous opponents even to adventurers blessed with mana.
“It feels stronger than that.”
For a moment, Crea’s face was tense.
This is because the creatures stronger than wild beasts in the Great Forest are monsters and monsters.
At that time, Count Larva Omar and the Paladin who followed approached.
“What is it?”
To the question of Count Omar of Larva, Baron Solon answered with a confused face.
“I felt a strong energy from the front. I was just trying to confirm my identity for safety.”
“It’s already gone, so keep going.”
“Are you gone?”
Baron Solon scratched his head with a depressed face.
I don’t know if it’s a monster or a monster, but it disappears without being seen?
There were many differences from Dae Soo-rim, which he learned at the academy.
With a puzzled face, Baron Solon took the lead again.
He walked quickly and distanced himself from Larva Count Omar, and whispered to Crea.
“Didn’t you say you came to practice at Crea Academy before graduation?”
“yes. I came in to the point where the shape of the road remained and went back out.”
“Are you attacked by beasts or demons?”
“Whew! don’t talk During the three days I was in the Great Forest, I was attacked without fail. I’ve never slept for more than three hours.”
“But we are quiet for the second day. A little while ago, something I didn’t know whether it was a monster or a monster came and ran away. What do you think of this?”
“Isn’t it because Sir Omar is a sword master?”
“…”
Baron Solon did not object.
Humans aren’t the only ones who feel the energy of beasts, beasts, and demons.
Even beasts, beasts, and monsters can perceive powerful energy like humans.
No, rather, beasts, demons, and demons react more sensitively than people.
So there was some truth in Crea’s words.
But is that all?
“why?”
“No, it reminded me of Tynelock’s words last night.”
“You mean it’s like Ishika’s Forgotten Shrine?”
“okay. Wasn’t it difficult to see that place as a city that was also occupied by wild beasts?”
“The atmosphere was a bit odd.”
“Wasn’t anything else strange?”
“Anything else?”
“Didn’t the saintess appear there as if she had fallen from the sky?”
“ah! It was also very strange. But the priests of Shastra Parakti took it for granted. I think so.”
Suddenly, Baron Solon lowered his voice.
“Do you think the saintess is a person?”
In line with Baron Solon, Crea’s voice also became smaller.
“If you’re not a person, what do you think?”
“Okay.”
Baron Solon did not readily answer.
To be honest, it was difficult to see the saintess’ sudden appearance or divine power.
However, looking at the love affair with Count Elio Lagoa, she is just a woman in love.
Now I don’t even know if she is a goddess or a person.
A grotesque roar could be heard from afar, as if announcing that this was a great forest.
Baron Solon shook his head excitedly and urged his steps.
***
Middle of the Great Grove.
Pioneer City Tombstone.
At noon.
A group approached the pioneer city of Tombstone in the middle of the Great Grove.
Six males and two females are Elio Lagoa and the others from Rivera.
Despite the 15-day long march, no one showed signs of getting hurt or tired.
Despite being a city in the middle of a great forest, Tombstone was poorly fenced.
This is because there is no force that manages and protects the tombstone.
The vigilante who was looking down from the top of the fence shouted loudly.
“Who!”
Baron Solon took a step forward and replied.
“Let’s go on an adventure!”
The vigilante didn’t ask further and shouted at his comrades to open the door.
This is because their mission is to watch over beasts and monsters, not to stop people.
Elio’s party passed through a poor-looking barricade and went inside.
As we entered the wooden fence, one of the vigilantes laughed and said,
“Come on. Welcome to Tombstone, the city of pioneers.”
Elio listened to the man’s words in one ear and looked around the tombstone.
Although the horse is a city, the size seemed to be halfway between a village and a city.
It is said that it is a pioneer city, and all that can be seen are wooden buildings.
“Hey! Can’t you see any buildings made of stone?”
Then the vigilante man who greeted me first said as if making excuses.
“It is a pioneer city. You don’t know when you’ll die, so who’s going to build it with stones?”
Elio tilted his head.
“The more dangerous it is, the safer it should be, right?”
“If the opponent is a beast or a monster, it will be like that. There are a lot of people who only want to build a building well, but who would do such a thing for good?”
“to?”
“Do you think mercenaries, adventurers, and criminals will build buildings and do business? Thousands of words. Business is for the common people. Everyone wants to make a quick buck and move out of here, but who is going to build a building out of stone?”
“Why are you thinking about winning when you can make good money?”
“That’s because this place is Tombstone. Even if someone dies here, they don’t even blink an eye. I just thought it would be okay if I didn’t die. It’s such a dangerous place. You say you are an adventurer and came here without knowing that?”
“You may not know. Just because you’re an adventurer doesn’t mean you know everything about the world.”
When Elio shamelessly asked back, the vigilante glanced at him with an absurd face.
Considering the age of mid-twenties, it is understandable that he does not know the world.
“Anyway, you shouldn’t touch ordinary people as much as possible. The city needs them to function properly. To put it simply, if you kill the tavern’s clerk and cook, only the adventurers and mercenaries will be uncomfortable.”
“Wow!”
Elio stuck out his tongue at the vigilante’s explanation.
To find the reason not to kill ordinary people in the inconvenience of life!
It was astounding to hear a story that would make people angry, even in Gangho, come out of the vigilante’s mouth casually.
When Elio didn’t ask more, the vigilante’s eyes turned to Luna Mylus and Crea.
As soon as his eyes became sticky, the paladin opened his eyes.
Only then did the vigilante turn around with a surprised face.
After passing through the barrier, Elio and the others headed for the tavern located in the center of the city.
Unusually, the tavern in the pioneer village had no name.
As if it were a bar, all there was was a picture of a beer mug.
But other than that, anyone could see that it was a tavern, so Elio and the others went inside without hesitation.
As expected, the interior of the wooden building was similar to the imperial and southern taverns.
The first floor was a bar/restaurant, and on one side of the wall was a staircase leading to this floor.
The noisy tavern became quiet as Elio and the others entered.
The gazes of the adventurers and mercenaries who were camped on the first floor were directed at the two beauties.
Elio didn’t pay much attention to it because it was a reaction everywhere he went.
After looking around, he walked to the empty seat with Luna Mylus.
Seeing Luna Mylus’ face up close, the men couldn’t even breathe.
The men’s eyes quickly changed from admiration to desire.
Fabian and Count Omar of Larva moved opposite Count Elio Lagoa as usual.
As Count Larva Omar lost his momentum, the men looked away one by one.
In the meantime, Baron Howard Solon and his party also found an empty seat and sat down.
The paladin, who accompanied Count Larva Omar throughout the Great Forest, naturally joined Baron Howard Solon’s party.
A woman dressed in a sleazy outfit, not sure if she was a clerk or a prostitute, walked around and took orders.
After finishing the order, Fabian said with a puzzled face.
“The saleswoman’s attire is very desirable. I wish I could learn something like that in the North, but it’s cold, so I can’t do it, right?”
“…”
However, unlike usual, Count Ellio and Larva Omar did not respond at all.
This is because it is not something one would say in front of a saintess.
Fabian belatedly realized his mistake, but there was no way to rectify it.
At that time, the men who had been drinking at the table next to him responded to his words.
“I heard that all taverns on the continent should be required to wear such an attire.”
“you’re right. The taste of alcohol has already changed.”
“Hyung, did you know that the waitresses here also serve the night? For this silver, you can sleep with him for the night. If you like it, tell the owner. I don’t know if there’s a beautiful woman in the party, so it’ll catch my eye.”
Guys go ‘Wow!’ laughed
The last words, no matter who heard them, were directed at Fabian.
Fabian, who seemed to be sitting on a cushion, jumped up and turned to the men.
Fabian, who was about to lash out at the rude men for swearing, hesitated.
Then one of the men shouted in surprise.
“Fabian? you! That’s Fabian Cloud!”
Fabian, who was looking at the man with a shit-chewed face, answered with a light sigh.
“Yes, Captain. Long time no see.”
