Dawn of the Ash Tower

Follow the knight into a building that has been searched. It has also been unoccupied for a while, but the appearance of this house is completely different from those abandoned houses in Sweetwater Town that are ready to leave.Living utensils are randomly placed in random places in the house, giving people the feeling that a robber broke in here and roughly searched every corner of the house.In this chaotic environment, the hole lying in the basement is not so conspicuous.

"It looks like it was dug out by something." Heather said, stroking the clear scratches on the wall of the cave.

"It must be those ratmen. Look, there are still their hairs here." Picking up a strange black hair from the ground beside the cave, Jack said what everyone thought.

However, cheese looked at the circular hole with a diameter of less than 1.5 meters in front of him, but he didn't draw such a simple conclusion. He always felt that something was wrong. Why did these ratmen dig such holes in so many houses?Where do these burrows lead?And the question that bothers the mage the most, if these native ratmen really made these caves, where did they get the soil dug out of the ground?You must know that there are no piles of soil piled up in this house, and no similar piles have been found on the street before. Such a dense number of crypts must have brought a lot of soil to be excavated, but now But the whereabouts of the soil could not be found.A series of questions made the mage feel even more uneasy. He felt that there seemed to be many pairs of invisible eyes watching them in the valley city, waiting for these humans to relax before launching a fatal attack.

In any case, however, these issues are not immediate priorities.After seeing the holes in four houses in a row, Heather also felt uneasy about the existence of these hidden dangers.Although some people suggested that these crypts should be collapsed altogether, the existence in the crypts might be disturbed in this way. Second, no one knows how fast the native ratmen who dug these crypts have. If the collapsed crypts It can't stop the Ratman's progress, but doing so may expose the existence of the team.In the end, the female knight commander decided not to deal with these crypts for the time being, and the team first found a room without burrows as a resting place.Come back to explore further tomorrow during the day.

into the night.Although the house that has been simply tidied up cannot be said to be very comfortable, it is at least more comfortable than the knight's camping tent.Because the team has a large number of people and it is not appropriate to disperse the personnel too much, the cheese and other four people were allocated a small room. It is indeed a bit crowded to fit four people in a small room, but compared to those knights sleeping in the corridor, the mage I don't think there is anything to complain about.

The Valley City at night was as quiet as during the day, except for the snoring from his companions and the clashing of armor from the sleeping knights turning over, it was difficult to find any other noises with the mage's hearing.Although the straw mat under his body was not soft, it was more comfortable than sleeping on the grass where only a layer of mats had been laid before.Coupled with the surrounding walls and ceiling, the sense of security in the building allows these fighters who are constantly tense to relax a little bit.However, even in such a resting environment, cheese still finds it difficult to sleep.

Going out for a walk if you can't fall asleep is a habit that cheese has developed before. He tried his best not to make a sound, carefully avoiding the "monkey" sleeping beside him, and gently closed the door after confirming that no one was awakened.But even though he wanted to walk, there was no room for Cheese to walk around in this building full of team members. As for leaving this room and going for a walk on the street, the mage asked himself that he was not so crazy.He thought of the two mutated ratmen who were brought into the Valley City together, and wondered if the Hammers had properly settled these two troubles.After inquiring about the room where the night watchmen held the Ratmen, the mage saw the two prisoners in a room on the second floor.

In order to prevent the ratmen from infecting the surrounding knights, cloth bags were tied to the limbs and mouths of the two mutant ratmen, so that their claws and teeth would be useless.Although the work and rest should be different from that of humans, the two ratmen who had been traveling with the team for a day were already exhausted. After confirming their status, Cheese greeted the soldiers guarding the ratmen and left the room.

The aimless mage suddenly found a window in a small corner of the corridor on the second floor. Since the nearby buildings were relatively low, there was no shelter outside the window, so it was still bright moonlight. You can see the layers of houses in the valley city in the distance.

"If it was before, the valley city at this time is still very lively." Heather's voice came from behind the mage, and Cheese was not surprised that the knight commander would know where he was. It seemed that the knight who had asked before told her of.But maybe the knight is not a person who is good at talking. Heather said her purpose of coming to the mage without waiting for cheese to answer.

"For tomorrow's exploration operation, I would like to hear your suggestions."

The mage turned his eyes back from the scenery outside the window and looked at the female knight commander. He had actually thought a lot about the next day's exploration, so the mage said.

"I haven't been to Valley City before, so I don't know much about the terrain here. However, if possible, I still suggest you explore the above ground first. As for those caves, I have some immature guesses. You can explore them tomorrow. I found as much of a map of Valley City as I could, and then marked the caves on the map according to the discovered areas, maybe I can figure out something."

"Okay, actually, I also want to go to the east and central areas of Valley City tomorrow to explore. After all, if Lyon's team is really in the city, it would be better to meet up as soon as possible." Heather nodded, agreeing with Cheese's suggestion .After getting the answer to the question, the female knight commander must recover her strength as soon as possible. After saying good night, Heather was about to leave, but she seemed to think of something suddenly before she left, so she turned back and said.

"Maybe it's a little presumptuous, please forgive me. I heard from my family before that mages can quickly recover their physical strength through meditation instead of sleep. I didn't expect to suffer from insomnia?"

"Meditation can restore mental exhaustion to a certain extent, but if you have experienced intense physical activity, the mage also needs sleep to relieve physical fatigue. In the end, it is better to lie down and sleep more comfortably." Cheese smiled Laughing, replacing sleep with meditation may seem unbelievable to ordinary people, but in the eyes of the mage, it is actually not something worth keeping secret.

Curiosity was satisfied, and the female knight commander didn't ask any more questions, so she nodded slightly and left the second floor.Cheese was also going to close the window shortly after this and go back and try to sleep. As he himself said, sleep can ensure that he has sufficient physical strength for the next action.But the moment the mage closed the window, there was a faint murmur from outside the window. The whisper was hoarse and indistinct, as if sighing something.Cheese quickly opened the window to find the source of the whispers, but what he saw was the Valley City in the dark.

Maybe it's too sleepy, Cheese thought so.
