The Immortal Wizard is watching

Chapter 25 The Comatose Mercenary

The sun is setting, and night is gradually covering the earth.

Although the cold winter has not officially arrived, the cold air in Black Rock City still makes the people living here shrink up. When the night is the coldest, the leaves here have begun to be covered with hoarfrost.

Ronan, who was sitting in the middle of the hotel, bit the last bite of bread, and after swallowing, let out a sigh of relief.

After wiping his fingers clean, he stood up.

"Riding here early in the morning, everyone has been tired all day, so go to bed early tonight. Also, if you haven't heard my order, don't bother with outside affairs."

He gave orders to the guards who had finished dinner beside him.

"Of order!" White and the others straightened their upper body and replied in unison.

At the same time, in a tavern in another area.

After a long wait.

Sherman, the head of the Red Wolf Mercenary Group, was sitting on the stool in the center, looking at the leaders of the major mercenary groups gathered around him.

"Yo, our master Sherman Pecks is back? Didn't you sneak into the Pecks family's castle and serve as a dog for that little girl? What's the matter, you didn't lick her comfortably and got kicked came back?"

The man who spoke was a fierce-looking man with a scar engraved on his face. He couldn't help but sneered after he sat down for a long time.

Due to the bad reputation, the mercenaries are wild dogs that are lower than the common people in the eyes of the nobles. The nobles of Black Rock City never hide their disgust and spurn on them.

With the spread of the Black Death and the lack of manpower in the army to control the city, the nobles of Black Rock City even designated a separate area for them.

The mercenaries are only allowed to operate in the designated area, and are not allowed to go to other places. Once found, they will be executed immediately!
The bad attitude led to the hostility of the mercenaries. Although they were suppressed by the powerful knights of the Pecks family, they did not dare to resist on the surface, but they naturally cursed all kinds of obscene words behind their backs.

As the most powerful leader among the mercenaries, Sherman suddenly ran to join the nobles, and his betrayal undoubtedly aroused the anger of all the mercenaries.

Now the other party suddenly summoned them, and the man with the scar speculated that Sherman might want to recruit them for the Pecks family.

In this situation, he was sure that Sherman would not dare to do anything to him, so he could only lick his face and be scolded by him.

But without waiting for him to continue, Sherman in front of him grinned, pressed his head and smashed it hard on the table, blood splattered everywhere.

"Damn it, are you crazy! What's the matter, you want to kill us for the nobles?" The other mercenaries were startled by his actions, and they stared at him angrily.

"I'll give you a warning, and I'll screw your head off next time." Sherman said coldly to the man with the scar under his hand.

Then he stood up and looked down at the others.

"Do you think I really want to join the Pecks family? Willing to be the dog of those bastard nobles? Wrong, big mistake!"

Sherman shouted at them with a grim expression.

"I'm trying to find out the reality of the nobles for you! Do you really want to continue your current life? Are you going to spend a few lives on the frozen soil, and then get a dozen silver coins from the hands of the merchant? Or Said that in the city, you have to do things in a humble manner, and you have to be scolded and humiliated to leave before you get paid?"

Listening to his words, the expressions of the mercenaries became even uglier, and they glared at Sherman with their scars uncovered.

If he doesn't give an explanation, even he is the most powerful mercenary, he can't get out of here.

"Let me tell you the answer, I will cut off their heads with the sword in my hand! Then put the gold coins on them into my pocket, because it should belong to me!"

Hearing his answer, the expressions of the other mercenaries eased a little, but they still frowned in puzzlement.

"What the hell do you mean?"

"I entered the interior of the Pecks family and got the exact news. The viscount and his son, the hateful silver knight, have turned against each other. Even the family knights were killed and injured. They can't control it at all now. us!"

His words caused an uproar in the crowd, and the mercenaries looked at him in disbelief.

Sherman began to tell in detail what he had seen and heard in the castle.

The rich and real emotional entanglement and the immersive father-son confrontation scene changed the questioning eyes of the mercenaries.

"Understood! Tonight is our chance, this city will be robbed by us, with the current situation, other nobles in the kingdom are simply unable to control the situation here, countless gold is waiting for us!"

Sherman's passionate words and the beautiful vision he described made the faces of the mercenaries flush with excitement.

"Well said! Let's go! Kill them all! Gold, jewels, and women will all be ours!"

He looked out the window at the already dark sky, thinking that the matter was over.

The area designated by Black Rock City for mercenaries actually made it easier for him to do things. Now there are more than 1000 mercenaries gathered here.

Once the crowd gathers to start violence, even they can't control themselves, and they will frantically kill other people around them.

Sherman led the principals of these mercenary groups out of the tavern, and was about to take the first action to reassure them.

But at this time, a quartz tube fell from the sky and hit the ground.

The outer shell shattered, and the light gray liquid inside quickly evaporated and spread to the surroundings.

"what?"

A mercenary looked up at the sky, wondering where it fell from, when he suddenly felt dizzy, and everything around him began to blur.

He wanted to control himself and stand still, but the powerlessness in his whole body overwhelmed him, and he finally fell to the ground and lost consciousness.

Not just him!

After the No. 1 mercenary fell, it was like dominoes. The mercenaries around him couldn't help pressing their foreheads, and finally lost consciousness and fell to the ground.

[Soul Lost Potion lv1: An extremely volatile and diffusible anesthetic, which can make ordinary creatures inhaled comatose for a few hours to a few days]

Ronan, who was leaning against the wall, dangled the quartz tube in his hand, with amazement in his eyes.

After inhalation, the drug will take effect within five to ten seconds, and the creature will lose consciousness, and the range of diffusion and volatilization is really not small.

The crow flying in the sky made Ronan see the situation below.

In less than 20 seconds, with the tavern as the center, it spread within a radius of 500 meters, and all living creatures inside lost consciousness.

Ronan smashed a total of five spirit-loss potions to ensure that all the mercenaries in the area could be stunned.

Oh, not all of them, there was one who remained awake.

He lifted the mask on his face.

A huge and ferocious beak mask completely covered his face, and a black plague costume made of thick waxed linen covered his whole body.

Black Death?Ronan smiled and shook his head, remembering how other people feared doctors dressed in this way.

At least this time, Dr. Bird's Beak should be a decent image.

Under the pitch-black night, there was no chirping of insects or birds, only a deep silence, and he walked out slowly.
