Chapter 855

[thanks to brother Xiang and full-time angel for their monthly ticket support!]

The feeling of hostility didn't disappear until the black owl led them into a hotel, which relieved Alice and others. After all, I am in a place with a population of nearly 10000 and almost everyone is hostile to you. This kind of mental pressure is not easy. The hotel that the black owl led them to is called "dark night", which is one of the "industries" of the film clan in Hakala.

The hotel is mainly used for entertaining members of the shadow clan and several vassal clans. Like several other powerful clans, there are similar hotels and bars in khakalari. These places are not only the footholds for the members of their clans to come to Hakala, but also the pattern of the division of leather forces. Like this hotel "dark night", with it as the center, almost the whole block is the shadow clan's sphere of influence.

The people who live in this block are the vassal members of the shadow clan. They live here, which is much safer.

"We'll live here today, and I'll take you to the holy mountain tomorrow." The black owl said to zero and looked at the others: "as for you, stay here for the time being when zero leaves. Don't worry. It's safe here if you don't walk around. "

The black owl called a sander. The Sanders were very small, just like the dwarfs in the magic world. But they're smart, they're good at business, and they have a talent for tools. Most of the craftsmen in Hakala are Sanders. The sound clan is attached to the shadow clan and pays certain materials to the shadow clan every year for protection, which is also the way of survival adopted by many small and medium-sized clans in the black land.

The sander's name was Hagen. At first sight, he thought he was a teenager, but his face was wrinkled like the bark of an old tree in the twilight forest. He rubbed his hands and chattered, "Lord Black owl, it's a great honor for us to have you here, but I'm afraid these human guests are not very popular with us. Hagen can only arrange a few hidden rooms for them, but you have to tell them not to walk around. Recently, the greedy kodia are always wandering around, and the lazy nado tramps are also a headache. Hagen wanted to send more guards, but... "

"All right, all right." With the depth of the black owl, it seems that he can't stand the wordiness of the Sanders. He interrupted Hagen by saying, "let's arrange rooms for my friends first. For the rest, I'll let Jess come to you. You talk to him. "

"Thank you very much." Hagen had a big smile on his old face, and then he yelled at the bottom of the hotel: "damn pound, where is your fat pig? Come out and help the guests. Do you want old Hagen to die with so many guests? My legs are so short and the damn stairs are so high. Next time I redecorate, I'll make them lower! "

Zero looked at the black owl, who showed his hand and made a helpless expression.

Next, they are assigned to a room. The pattern of the night hotel is like a horseshoe, with the lobby in the middle and high walls and guards on both sides. Of course, the gate is open during the day, if there is an attack. Once the gate is closed, plus the five meter high external wall, it is enough to withstand the attack. In fact, most of the buildings in Khara have similar functions, so that during the war, buildings like the night Inn can be transformed into a small fortress.

For the sake of concealment, their rooms were arranged to face the inside of the hotel, so that people outside the block could hardly find them. In contrast, the environment of the room is not as good as those facing the block. In terms of view, at least, the latter is much better than none of their rooms.

Zero points to the room is the best, there is a living room and * * bedroom, the bedroom also has a small balcony. There is a chair and a low table on the balcony. It's a pleasure to drink on the balcony at night.

In the evening, people came to the restaurant for dinner. As for the sharp edged hunters, they didn't come to the city. Instead, they stay outside the city. They can hunt and kill some mutants to satisfy their hunger, but they are not afraid to starve them.

The dinner was very rich, just a table of vegetables, most of which were fruits and vegetables. There are only a few plates of barbecued meat, and the sales are not very good. It can be seen that the hotel chefs are not so good at cooking meat food. Black owl explained: "Sanders' recipes are mainly wild vegetables and fruits, so there are not a lot of meat in the hotel. Chefs are not good at this, so you can make do with it."

Zero taste, those purple green vegetables with similar salad dressing seasoning, eat sweet and sour delicious. And these vegetables contain a lot of water, the juice has a honey like flavor, rich in fiber and various nutrients needed by the human body. The taste is not so bad. Besides, people have already eaten too much barbecue on the journey. Now it's good to change the light taste.

The black owl eats very little, and basically only takes a few mouthfuls to show that he has eaten well. He said to zero, "rest early and we'll start tomorrow morning. Your wound? "

Zero activity under the arm cut by Albert, smile: "not in the way.""That's good." The black owl stood up, said "at will" to others, and went back to his room first.

The meal lasted nearly an hour, during which the kitchen of the hotel had to serve food constantly, which made old Hagen complain that human beings could eat so much. That sad look made people laugh. After dinner, Leah said that she would live with moni. Zero also no opinion, Moni's injury has recovered, if anything, she can also protect Leah, don't worry.

Back in his room, he saw two bottles of Sanders' own wine on the table at the entrance. There is a note under it, with the word "gift" written in crooked human language. With a smile, she took a bath first, and then came to the balcony with two bottles of wine. The bottle cap will be unscrewed, there will be a faint aroma sent out. He was surprised by the strength of the wine.

He could roughly taste that it was made from some kind of fruit, but he didn't know what other formula was added to the wine. The stamina is very strong. If ordinary people are afraid to drink a few mouthfuls, they have to lie down. Zero is very novel, you know, to his strong level, the effect of alcohol on them is almost the same as boiled water. As we all know, there are some special drinks in asGATT, which are specially for high-level people. They even add psychotropic drugs to make high-level people feel drunk.

And those special drinks are enough for an ordinary family to have enough food and clothing for a year.

Zero seldom drinks, and even less can make him feel drunk. He doesn't mind getting drunk tonight. After a few more drinks, I felt slightly drunk. This feeling is really novel and wonderful. Wine, like music, seems to circulate among different races. Intoxication, on the other hand, will remind people of things they didn't think of or didn't dare to think about.

Like zero now, this kind of slightly drunk feeling let him open the valve of memory, think of what happened in the western continent, and miss Cinderella more. Before he knew it, he had been away from that continent for several months, and he didn't know where hindrella was now. Judging from the reproductive cycle of human beings in the new era, if hindrella wants to, she can even give birth to a new life now.

I don't know whether the crystallization between myself and her is a clever boy or a lovely girl? Thinking about it, zero even outlines the image of the child in his mind. It's based on the combination of his and Cinderella's looks. In terms of the computing power of the brain, such a picture is almost the same as real.

Imagine their own children, zero mouth can not help but escape a smile.

When he picked up the bottle and decided to take another drink, he was alarmed. The wooden armchair he was sitting on just now was smashed by a sudden arrow! At the end of the arrow's strength, it still plunges into the wall, and the tail of the arrow is wavering. Zero did not stay, a tumble has been to the bedroom. When he looked out of the balcony, his eyes were awe inspiring, and he didn't look drunk.

After that, the power suddenly grew, and then there was a continuous burst from the ceiling. A tall figure followed the scattered mud and sawdust to the bed of zero, directly pressing his bed across. Then, before roaring, the killer cut his head to zero with his axe in his hands.

Zero stuffy hum, in the eye spurts out the thin golden flame. Without changing his posture, he quickly slipped back and ran into the man's arms. Then the shadow of the fist flies, and the dull whistling of the heavy warhead constantly rings in this small bedroom. Like a storm, zero killed the man who attacked him without backhand.

The heavy punch hit the opponent's abdomen, and the heavy warhead produced a random secondary implosion effect. In the thunder, a stream of blood rushed out from behind the man and splashed the whole wall with bone and some internal organs. The other party suffered a heavy blow and finally fell down, but died. At this time, it was clear that the alien attacking him was covered with gray hair, but there was black hair on his chest, which naturally formed an "X" pattern.

It was just like an ape man. After hearing the news, the black owl was the first to break into the house. Seeing the killer killed by zero, the elder of the shadow clan said: "what's the matter?"

At the end of the speech, zero suddenly made a displacement, and let a strong arrow shot in from the window be nailed to the wall. Then there were several arrows chasing zero. Zero and the black owl retreated to the living room and looked at the arrows nailed in a row on the floor of the bedroom.

Alice and others also came one after another. Jin lined up the crowd and said to zero, "Yeliu has gone to greet the archer."

He was very relieved of Yeliu. Sure enough, ten minutes later. Yeliu came back and caught a man. It was also an alien, tall and thin man with a pale face. It seems that he was knocked unconscious by Yeliu. The girl threw him to the ground. She quickly found a chair and tied him up. The black owl flicked his hands and released a jet of dark energy from his fingertips.

He hit the energy jet into the man's chest. The man shook like an electric shock. When he opened his eyes, he woke up with electricity.The black owl said: "who are you? Why

The archer spat a mouthful of blood phlegm at the black owl and said with a sneer, "you don't want to know anything from me, noble shadow clan elder!"

"Yes? Then I'll have to do something The black owl said with a faint smile.

The archer showed his disdainful eyes. He was silent and suddenly trembled. The black owl's face changed and he just opened his mouth. The archer's mouth is a mouthful of dirty blood, eyes pupil diffusion, has taken poison to commit suicide.

Hagen called some people to carry out the bodies of the two killers. As for the room, there was no way to tidy it up for a while, so he simply changed the room to zero. In the new room, the owl stayed, and the others went back to rest. The black owl said in a deep voice: "these two men, one is the shooter of storm clan, the other is the soldier of black hammer. But they are both prisoners, and they have been removed from the two clans. I didn't expect that they would appear here and attack you. "

"It shouldn't be that simple. I asked Hagen just now that he didn't send those two bottles of wine, but they were stolen. What's more, there's something in it that can make people's nerves slow down. " "So, it's a game," he said. A fight against me. "

"That's the problem. This is the control area of our shadow clan. That man was able to send these two people here, and let the black hammer soldier ambush you on the first floor in advance. It's not easy to do this, even only the high-level of the temple can do it. " The black owl said calmly.

"It seems that some elder of your temple doesn't want me to come."

The black owl snorted: "when the lion is ill, some hyenas and wild dogs come out, and they want to take advantage of it. What a joke

Zero if thoughtful, the look of the black owl, who seems to plan the attack more or less some bottom. But he didn't intend to say it. It seems that the situation of the temple is more complicated than he imagined. Then the door opened and Hagen came in, saying, unconventionally and succinctly, "pound committed suicide."

"Whose man is he?"

"Black hammer clan."

How long has pound been with you

"Nearly five years." Hagen replied.

"Have you been recruiting new people lately?" Asked the owl, shaking his head.

"A few days ago, I was short of manpower. I recruited three guys to fight pound..."

"Go and call these men."

Hagen went down immediately, and soon he came back. The old sander said calmly, "one is missing. His name is Hess."

The owl nodded: "he should have killed pound and wanted to blame him. You go and find out the origin of Hess. Including his clan, who he had contact with, etc

"I see, my Lord."

The black owl looked to zero and said, "have a rest. We will go to the temple tomorrow. However, it is estimated that it will take three or two days to trace Hess, which is enough time for the other party to erase a lot of evidence. So in the end, strength is the most important thing. "

At zero, after the owl left, he went to bed. In the early morning, the black owl would knock on the door. After they had breakfast, Hagen sent zero a cloak and asked him to put it on. Then the owl and zero left the hotel. Because it was morning, there were not many passers-by in the city. In addition to the cloak of zero, no one will take a look at zero more than those who are willing to do so.

Black owl with zero around the city, and then go out from the west gate. After leaving Hakala, zero asked, "have you tried to find something?".

Black owl some accident, nod a way: "you pour is careful."

Zero opened his hat and said with a smile, "if it's just going out of town, there's no need to go around the city so much. So I think you are deliberately taking me to step on the control area of some clans. Besides, in two or three places, I feel that someone seems to recognize me at a glance. "

"The clans are Yasuo, Luan and Kaz. Among them, the luans are the most hostile, followed by Kaz and Yasso The black owl looked in the direction of the holy mountain: "since they can recognize you at a glance, it must be that their superiors have given some orders. And showing hostility, it seems that the heads of these clans don't like you so much. "

"I'm not here to please them, either." Zero stall road.

The owl smiles and says nothing. After leaving Hakala city with zero, we walk to a stream which is separated from the holy lake. Old Hagen had already been here, and was asking several people to put a moon boat into the river. The moon boat is a tool for going to the holy mountain through the river. It is made of logs of ancient trees. Sanders' craftsmen hollowed out the heart of the tree and made the two sides of the ship into crescent shape.The two ends of the crescent moon are painted with a falling feather pattern with black pigment, which is the symbol of the shadow clan.

There are already two oars on board. A moon boat can take four people. After deducting zero and black owl, the remaining two places will be filled by two boatmen. They rowed and sailed to the foot of the holy mountain.

Streams and rivers from the holy lake meander down on this land. Sitting in the boat, looking at the banks on both sides of the river from high to low, occasionally there are some strange animals unique to the black land passing by, and they will cast curious eyes on the boat.

It will save half a day to go to the holy mountain by river than by walking. So by noon, zero can see the black holy mountain. From a close look, we can see how magnificent the mountain is. It rises almost flat, and there is no corresponding transition between the foot of the mountain and even the flat. The steep slope makes the mountain look extremely steep. There are no plants growing on the mountain, but the black mountain, those natural fissures show the red rock. Most of these fissures have stone steps. However, the cracks are not connected, so the blood ladder is naturally intermittent.

Between the intermittent steps, there is a cable which is fixed by a steel ring nailed into the stone crack. Climbers can use the cable to go between the steps. However, when borrowing the cable, both feet are suspended, and one bad one will fall from the mountain. It's no joke. According to the black owl, every year hundreds of people fall and die in the valley at the foot of the mountain in order to climb the holy mountain. It also becomes a natural tomb Valley for pilgrims.

Therefore, it is impossible to go to the holy mountain without certain strength.
