Wizard Immortal

Chapter 155 Overnight Stay

"Have I stumbled into a monster's lair?"

As he rode his horse along the town's road, looking sideways at the crowd gathering around him, Adir's eyes gradually turned cold.

Although the people around them seemed no different from usual, without exception, they all carried an eerie aura, which they had hidden deeply and were not easily discovered.

During the chip testing, apart from the little girl named Bonnie, the physical condition of the other villagers was not quite normal. Even the elderly who looked very old were actually as physically fit as some elite soldiers.

Besides these, Adir also discovered some other oddities on the surface.

Located in a danger zone, this town is not large, but at least dozens of people have come out of the town, and if you include the residents who have not yet appeared, the number is estimated to be over a hundred.

Among these dozens of people were men and women, and even the elderly, but there were no children. Even the youngest was like Bonnie, already a teenager.

Of course, this phenomenon isn't too strange in a strict sense. After all, living in a dangerous area and ensuring one's own safety is already difficult enough. Children have very weak survival skills, so it's not surprising that they might die in an accident.

Around Adir, Sidham and the others didn't think that much about it.

As the number of people around them gradually increased, their wariness slowly subsided, and they even felt a sense of familiarity with the lively crowd around them.

However, they failed to notice that among the onlookers, some people had a faint green glint in their eyes.

These people stood at the edge of the corner, staring intently at Adir and the others with a strange look in their eyes, as if they were looking at dead people.

After a while, the rain started to fall outside, and the raindrops soaked the ground.

"This rain is going to last a long time."

In the spacious living room, watching the rain continue to fall outside, Adir spoke.

"yes."

Meanwhile, Bru walked up to the group and said, "Based on my experience, this rain should last for at least two days, so you gentlemen may have to stay with me for a while."

"Excuse me," Adir said, turning around.

"It's alright." Blue waved his hand. "We haven't had any guests here for a long time, and you've already paid us, so it can't be considered a disturbance."

He had just finished speaking when a slender figure slowly walked over from the side.

She was a little girl of about seven or eight years old, wearing a tattered red cloth robe. Her face was a bit chubby, and she looked very cute.

"Amy, is the room ready?"

Looking at the little girl, Bru smiled kindly on his wrinkled face and asked her.

Seeing the smile on Blue's face, and under his gaze, the little girl remained expressionless and silent, simply nodding slightly.

"What an adorable child." A voice suddenly rang out from the side.

Looking at the little girl in front of her, Lati stepped forward with a gentle smile: "Little friend, how old are you this year?"

Hearing Lati's question, the little girl named Amy also smiled, but did not say anything.

"I'm sorry, Amy can't speak."

Looking at Lati, Blue walked over to Amy and patted her head: "This child was born unable to speak, and she's already ten years old, with no signs of improvement."

As he spoke, his face was kind, with a hint of regret on it.

Hearing this, Lati was stunned: "What a pity... such a good child."

Beside him, Adir's gaze was also fixed on Amy.

"Tongue tissue missing, vocal cords abnormally damaged, 97.4% chance of being caused by human error..." The voice of the chip machine rang in his mind again.

"Is this child your granddaughter?"

Standing still, Adir suddenly interjected.

Across from him, listening to Adir's question, Blue was taken aback at first, then realized: "Yes, she and Bonnie are both my favorite granddaughters."

"What's wrong?" He looked at Adir with some confusion.

"No, it's alright." Adir smiled. "Since the rooms are ready, take us to see them."

Hearing this, Blue nodded: "Please come with me."

After saying this, he turned and led Adir and the others away into the distance.

After a short while, they walked to one side of the room.

"I'm sorry, because we haven't had any guests for a long time, I only have three rooms left that are available."

As he walked, Bru turned to look at Adir and the others: "What arrangements do you gentlemen plan to make?"

"Sir, how about you and Lati each have a room, and I'll share a room with the others?"

Hearing what Blue said, Sidham stood up and offered his advice.

As a lord, Adir naturally couldn't share a room with his subordinates, while Lati was a woman and also Adir's student, so it wasn't appropriate for her to squeeze in with the other guards.

Looking around, Adir shook his head: "The rooms here aren't very big; it's too cramped for a dozen of you to squeeze together."

"Latti and I will share a room, and you will share the remaining two rooms."

He remained expressionless as he looked at the people in front of him and spoke.

As soon as he said that, Lati's face turned red.

She glanced down at Adir in front of her, but in the end, she didn't say anything.

While remaining in place, the others looked on with a hint of realization, instinctively turning their gaze to Lati.

Standing beside Adir, Lati wore a black robe that covered her entire figure. Although her appearance was quite ordinary, she still had a delicate charm. At this moment, with her face flushed and her head lowered, she looked rather attractive.

Feeling the gazes directed at her, Lati's face flushed even more, and she lowered her head in embarrassment, but said nothing.

Seeing her like this, everyone present immediately smiled knowingly.

Soon they arrived at their respective rooms.

The three rooms are separate, with each room a distance apart.

Apart from the room where Adir was, the other two rooms each housed at least six or seven people.

After assigning rooms, Adir walked under the eaves, quietly watching the rain outside continue to pour down.

As he walked down the street, he suddenly looked in the direction to the side.

There, Bruna's aged figure gradually emerged.

"It's getting late, sir. Aren't you going to rest?"

Walking down the street, looking at Adir, Bru's expression was clearly one of surprise.

"It's not too late yet, so take advantage of this time to come out and see the scenery here."

Looking at Blue, Adir casually remarked, "This town is much better than I imagined."

"well···"

Walking up to Adir and listening to his words, Bru sighed, "A lot happened in this town back then; almost everyone in the town died."

"Could you tell me about it?"

Hearing his words, Adir turned around and said.

"There's not much to say," Blue laughed. "About three or four years ago, this area entered a period of outbreak, and our town was also affected, resulting in many deaths."

"Later, I don't know what happened, but those strange things suddenly disappeared, which is why we survived and didn't all die."

Standing there, Bru sighed, "Because of the strange events that occurred there, the mutated monsters around the town disappeared, allowing the town to be preserved intact."

"That's not bad either."

Standing still, Adir's expression remained unchanged as he calmly said, "Being able to live peacefully in this place is something that people from other places would envy."

"yes."

Seemingly remembering something, Bru nodded in agreement and then said, "Although this area is relatively safe, it's best not to go out at night."

"After all, this area has been affected by strange occurrences before, and some strange things might happen at night."

"I understand." Adir's expression remained unchanged; he simply nodded.

After a while, as the rain outside intensified, he turned and walked back to his room.

Behind him, watching Adir's departing figure, Bru's originally amiable expression suddenly turned uncertain.

His eyes gradually turned green, and he stared intently at Adir's back, seemingly lost in thought.

Back in the previous room, Lati was tidying up, neatly spreading the sheets and other items from the table onto the wooden bed.

"Lord Adir."

Hearing footsteps outside the door, she turned to look at Adir, her face flushing slightly.

"Sidham and his men came by?"

Entering the room and looking around, Adir asked.

On the wooden table were some smoked meat and dried rations, which had not been seen in the room before and must have just been brought in.

"These were brought over by Sidham."

Looking at Adir, Lati lowered her head and said, "Sidem and the others felt it was safer to use their own things, so they refused the food brought by the residents here and took some dry rations from their luggage."

"He did the right thing," Adir said with a smile and a nod.

Such caution is indeed commendable when traveling.

After a while, it gradually got dark outside.

Looking at the sky outside and at Adir in front of her, Lati gently bit her lip: "My lord... it's getting late, let's rest first."

Hearing her words, Adir turned to look at Lati beside him, somewhat surprised.

Having lived three lives, he was alone most of the time, but he was by no means a fool.

Latti's meaning was crystal clear; any ordinary person could understand it.

However, Adir himself was not interested in this.

It's not that there's anything taboo about it, it's just that the place isn't suitable.

To have such chaotic thoughts in a place where something is clearly wrong is practically suicidal.

Thinking of this, Adir shook his head inwardly, then turned around and looked out the door, keeping a close eye on any movement outside.

Sorry, I'm feeling really dizzy... There will only be one update tonight.
