Chapter 2 (1/2)

Miracle continent is the continent where the world is located. It is divided into dozens of kingdoms and empires. Its vast continental area is beyond anyone's imagination, let alone countless islands and undiscovered regions around this continent.

On the miracle continent, the closer it is to the north, the warmer the climate will become. The air is not dry, but the humidity is not high. It can be regarded as the most comfortable living environment. The kingdom of Celian is located in such a northern region, which can naturally be regarded as a rich and powerful kingdom. However, no matter how rich and powerful a country is, the development of some areas will always lag behind, or even drag down the development of a kingdom - although the reason may also be related to the local lords, but most people don't think so.

This is a small village in the kingdom of Celian, led by shiver.

The scale of this village is not large. There are only about 30 families in the whole village. However, because the village has no special products to export, let alone businessmen, even peddlers will not come to this place. Therefore, the flow of people here can be said to be almost zero, and usually there are not many people passing through in a year. Although the village is not prosperous, at least it is not poor. Relying on hunting and farming twice a year, the villagers live a relatively good life.

However, since a few months ago, an unknown Black Warrior of the dead occupied an old ruins outside the village, the people in the village have become terrified all day. Since that time, some people in the village began to disappear. Later, it developed to the point that at night, every family was confined to the door and did not dare to come out, because walking corpses began to appear in the village.

Since the village's economy is not very good, it is natural that we can't ask mercenaries to come and help - and those small mercenaries dare not take up the task after hearing the exclusive words of the dead such as black knight and walking corpse. As for reporting to the Lord, the village head sent someone over, but the Lord's army didn't come to encircle and suppress for so long, which made the people in the village feel abandoned and desperate.

The ruins used to be a noble residence. At that time, the environment around the village was good, but with some man-made development and destruction, the beauty around the village no longer existed. Later, the residence was naturally abandoned. Later, perhaps because of severe weathering or other reasons, the mansion collapsed into ruins.

At this moment, nearly 50 villagers gathered at the entrance of the village and looked forward to the ruins in the distance.

The ruins are not too far from the village. Standing at the entrance of the village, you can still see the outline of the ruins.

”Village head, those two children... Really no problem?”

”It should be... No problem.” The old man who was called the village head bent down and was a little uncertain on his face, ”that man warned us before the monster appeared, so... So he must have a way.”

However, no matter who enters the ruins that is no different from hell in the eyes of the villagers, and no news has been heard for five or six hours, he will certainly not think it is a good thing. But that's the only person willing to help them in recent months, so although it's been so long, everyone still spontaneously gathered here and maintained expectation and hope.

Just as some villagers began to look disappointed, two figures finally appeared on the horizon.

Most of the villagers began to rub their eyes. When they were sure that it was really the two people who said they wanted to help him solve the trouble and then ran to the ruins, all the villagers gave a burst of cheers, and then they rushed towards the two figures like a tide.

These two figures are naturally Sean and Cecilia.

Cecilia was wearing a long black-and-white gothic dress, holding a golden book with a thickness of about 30 cm and a length and width of 30 cm in her arms. Her exquisite facial features were expressionless at the moment, but she looked at Sean nearby with a little more resentment, and muttered from time to time: ”liar!”

Sean smiled bitterly, rubbed Cecilia's head, and then said, ”I told you not to run out casually. When I cheated it to you, I'll use fireball to deal with it. As a result, you didn't listen and had to be so embarrassed. How can you blame me for such a thing?”

”Liar!”

Sean was helpless.

In fact, the tactics of entering the ruins to deal with the Black Knight went smoothly at the beginning.

There are only about ten walking corpses in the whole ruins. With the cooperation of Sean's swordsmanship and Cecilia's spells, these are very easy to solve. Of course, the process is not very beautiful. After all, for Cecilia, the evil monster of walking corpse is really ugly and frightening. But all the way down smoothly, after meeting the Black Knight, it became a mess.

Originally, according to Sean's plan, he was responsible for attracting the hatred of the Black Knight, then leading the black knight to Cecilia's nearby, and then Cecilia's fireball skill solved it. For this reason, Sean even stayed in the ruins for several hours. But what Sean didn't expect was that Cecilia was startled by a mouse, and then she was discovered by the black knight. Then there was a series of embarrassed evasion and escape, because the black knight had entered the violent stage at that time. Even if Sean had the experience of dealing with the Black Knight, he didn't dare to provoke at this time, Can only endure until the end of the Black Knight's violent time.

Of course, if that's the case, Cecilia wouldn't scold Sean, but Sean told her that the task was very easy. She could easily finish it as long as she threw a few fireballs. But in fact, Cecilia was almost cut by the black knight. Being so positively frightened, Cecilia certainly wouldn't give Sean a good look, but considering that she was only a little girl of 12 or 3 years old, Sean couldn't say anything.

”Sure enough, it's different from the game.” Sean looked at Cecilia, who was still angry. He whispered, ”there are still too many unexpected factors. This is just a level 5 copy...”

”What are you muttering about?” Cecilia looked at Sean. Although she still didn't have much expression on her face, she wasn't as angry as she was just now. ”She's always so talkative. The villagers are coming.”

”Nothing.” Sean shook his head. He looked at the villagers who were cheering and running. There was a little more smile on his serious face. Although he looked quite embarrassed at the moment, his confident and calm temperament still made people feel like finding the backbone. ”Yes, it's no longer a game, but a real world!”

As if to strengthen his faith, Sean raised the head of the black knight in his hand in front of all the villagers.

Suddenly, the villagers cheered even louder.

Just like the heroes who returned in triumph, Sean and Cecilia were welcomed back to the village with great enthusiasm by the villagers, which made Cecilia, who was not good at communicating with others, feel a little distressed, but Sean would take care of her at this time. After returning to the village, there was a grand dinner like a celebration. Fish food even appeared at the dinner. You know, the village is not close to the sea. The main food is meat and vegetables. Fish food is generally only possible at major festivals. The most rare thing is that the fish creatures at the dinner are very fresh, which makes Sean very clear, These villagers' enthusiasm and welcome are real, with theout a trace of the fraud.

After the dinner, the villagers even arranged a clean house for Sean and Cecilia to live in. Under this difficult enthusiasm, Sean could only choose to stay in the village for another day.

……

The north wind at night was not as cold as expected. Sean stood at the window on the second floor of the house and looked out at the scenery.
