I’m Really Not Targeting the Mages

Chapter 2: After the red tide

  ……

   "You can't go."

"Why not?"

   "The corpse demon is too dangerous!"

   "No matter how dangerous the monster is, it can be killed! I have the courage and consciousness to face the sullo monster."

   "Doroth, courage and enlightenment cannot avenge you, but may kill you."

   "But...that's my brother."

  ……

   In the lobby of the Lord's Mansion, there was a fierce quarrel.

   "Roger, go and persuade Dorothy."

   "She has been here five or six times this month, and every time she applied to the lord to recruit manpower to defeat the corpse demon."

   "Since Kane died, she seems to be a different person..."

   The two guards babbled the ins and outs.

   Kane is the captain of the former garrison team in Tongma Town, and he is a very reliable man.

  He is one of Roger's only friends in Tongma Town.

   It was he who accompanied Roger through the difficult adventurer career at the beginning of the journey. Roger was very grateful for this and kept it in his heart.

   A year ago, Kane recruited a group of elite adventurers in the town.

   They went to fight against the long-forgotten corpse demon with great force, but the strange group was destroyed.

  Tongma Town was badly injured. Last winter, the Moors in the north almost broke the granary.

   During that time, many people in the town complained secretly about Kane's recklessness.

  ……

   Roger walked into the hall.

   A tall girl is standing next to the marble pillar, arguing fiercely with the white-bearded butler of the lord’s mansion.

   She wore a close-fitting chestnut leather armor, and a sharp dagger was attached to the straps of her waist and thighs.

   Her skin is very fair, perhaps because she is too excited, not only a layer of sweat like dew drops on her forehead, but even the faintly visible blue veins are so obvious.

   She is Dorothy, Kane’s sister, and the current defensive captain of Tongma Town.

   "Roger?"

   Dorothy noticed him, her eyes slightly surprised.

  Roger nodded slightly, and walked quickly to the two of them.

   "Are you here to stop me?"

   Dorothy noticed the two evasive guards, and her eyes grew awkward.

   "No, I'm here to receive the reward from the Shi Luo Yao."

   Saying so, Roger smoothly pressed the reward order on the desk in front of the old housekeeper.

   There was silence in the hall for about five or six seconds.

   "Are you kidding? Roger."

   The old housekeeper shivered and pushed his glasses, looked at the reward order in Roger's hand, and muttered:

   "It's crazy, you are all crazy."

   Dorothy was stunned, her eyes gradually becoming complicated.

   And the two guards who encouraged Roger to enter the hall were even more dumbfounded.

   They hadn't noticed that Roger had torn off the reward order of the corpse demon!

   After all, in their impression, Roger is a rare kind of adventurer with honest duty.

   The crusade against monsters has never had anything to do with Roger.

   "Wait a minute!"

   Dorothy suddenly reacted and grabbed Roger's arm:

   "You can't go!"

"Why not?"

   Roger asked.

   "The corpse demon is too dangerous!"

   Dorothy stroked her slightly messy hair anxiously.

   "No matter how dangerous a monster is, it can be killed, right?"

   "You are not the only conscious person, Dorothy."

  Roger said calmly.

   Dorothy bit her lip lightly, thoughtfully:

   "Are you using this method to remind me to be more rational?"

   "But that's Kane..."

   "No, no, no."

   Roger couldn't help but roll his eyes:

   "Don't think too much, I just mean it literally."

   After speaking, he looked at the old housekeeper:

   "The Lord's Mansion should have detailed information about the corpse demon, right?"

   The old butler looked at Roger in silence. After a while, he seemed to realize Roger's determination, so he said helplessly:

   "We do have detailed information about the corpse demon."

   "But in order to prevent some adventurers from misjudging the strength of the crusade target, we have added a pre-task."

   "Only when the prerequisites are completed, we will give you the detailed information of the sila monster."

   Roger thought a little, then nodded:

   "What is the predecessor?"

   "The Queen of the Red Tide Corpse."

  The old butler is no longer inked, so he directly took out a new roll of parchment from the drawer and handed it to Roger.

   "As long as you can kill the red tide corpse in Yuntai Mountain within three months, in addition to the 300 copper order bounty, we will also provide information on the corpse demon with both hands."

   "I hope you can understand that we really don't want the vitality in the town to die in vain."

   Roger glanced roughly at the content on the parchment, nodding slightly:

"understood."

   "Farewell."

   In the ghostly expressions of the guards, he turned and left the lord's mansion.

   "Roger!"

   didn't go far, Dorothy chased up as he expected.

   "Crimson Tide Empress...I will go with you."

she says.

   Roger decisively said:

"Great."

   "Tomorrow morning, Pumpkin Field North, I will wait for you."

   Dorothy was stunned again. She thought Roger would refuse, but she didn't expect him to agree so easily.

   She looked at Roger up and down again, as if looking at a stranger.

   "A word is definite."

   Dorothy breathed a sigh of relief, then asked slightly suspiciously:

   "Where are you going now? This is the way to Yuntai Mountain."

   "Oh, I'm going to collect medicine."

   Roger said.

  ……

   more than an hour later.

   Outside a valley on the side of Yuntai Mountain.

  Roger breathed evenly against the steep rock wall and moved forward steadily.

   The half-person tall weeds seriously obstructed his vision.

   Fortunately, he also has "Wang Qi".

   In Roger's field of vision, thin blood-red air columns rose into the sky in front of him.

   There is a cluster of scarlet blood clouds above the canyon.

   This shows that there are a lot of monsters in the canyon!

   Roger quietly stopped.

Not far in front of   , a lonely blood column stopped moving.

   That is a red tide zombie.

  ……

   "Red Tide Zombie LV4 Life 35 Defense 5 Weak Thunder"

  ……

   glanced at the data obtained by Wang Qi Shu.

  Roger gently unlocked the two-handed sword on his back and held it firmly in his hand.

   This two-handed sword is the standard equipment of the Tongma Town garrison. It is smaller in size than the common two-handed sword; it is relatively flexible in swinging and is very suitable for small-scale combat.

   This two-handed sword was given to Roger by Kane.

   In a territory like Tongma Town that does not produce steel, it is considered a valuable gift.

   suppress all thoughts.

   Roger adjusted his breath and suddenly launched a "surprise attack"!

   His figure is as fast as lightning.

   in the weeds.

   The red tide zombie moved slowly and tried to turn around. Roger had already bullied him, and the sword light in his hand slashed towards the waist of the monster!

   With the blessing of "Gathering Up", his sword can exert 500% power!

   Whether it is "Attack Power", "Damage", or "Strength", "Hit", or "Chop".

   is 500% effect!

   噗嗤!

  The sharp blade cut off the waist of the red tide corpse like a sickle cutting straw, without any sense of stagnation.

   The monster quietly turned into two parts, struggling on the ground for a while, and then completely died.

   "It's so silky!"

   Roger let out a sigh of relief.

   He skillfully took out a piece of sackcloth and wiped the yellow blood off the two-handed sword, before he focused on the second target.

   The half-person tall grass came from inside, and the silent slaughter slowly proceeded.

   Relying on the precise positioning of the "Wang Qi", Roger seemed to be calling for his life, and one by one wiped out the lives of the single monsters.

  ……

   "You killed 1 red tide zombie, and you killed 9 red tide zombies in total"

   "You got 1 XP"

   "Your pain resistance is slightly increased"

  ……

   Before doing it, Roger threw the evil mark on the red tide zombies.

   This kind of monster feedback attribute is very good, it is the ability to resist pain.

   It's a pity that monsters like red tide zombies don't have the reproductive ability of magic explosion frogs, otherwise Roger would really consider whether to fully use pain resistance before leaving.

  Huhuhu!

   The sword wind in the grass is irritable.

   Roger cut off the head of a monster cleanly and wiped sweat on his forehead.

   His brow furrowed slightly.

   "It's too slow to kill like this..."

   "Furthermore, it is not so easy to find the red tide zombies alone. The rest are gathered in the valley."

   At this moment, there are four corpses of two red tide zombies lying in front of him.

   He only wanted to kill one of them, but he didn't expect to alarm the other one.

   Fortunately, with his current skill, it is not difficult to fight one against two.

   But it made Roger realize that killing like this is not only too inefficient, but also has a potential safety hazard.

   The crowds of red tide zombies may pose a threat to him.

   "It's time to change strategy."

   "Let’s see the situation in the valley first!"

   Roger put a two-handed sword on the ground, hung a rope around his waist, and then went into battle with light load, and soon climbed up the cliff on the east side of the canyon with agility.

   His "climbing" skill is 49 points (the limit of LV5), which is enough for this kind of terrain.

   When he reached a high place, he looked up.

   Deep in the canyon, groups of red tide zombies move irregularly.

   In the next second, Roger's eyelids twitched slightly.

   He actually saw an intact tent among the zombie group!

   A fat and tall zombie walked out of the tent.

   seemed to notice something, she suddenly glanced at the rock wall outside the canyon.

   The sky above the stone wall is empty.
