Chapter 226 The aftermath
After Steller led the Red Sword back to Kushiva, he immediately shouted to the soldiers on duty on the city wall: "Hey, hurry up and prepare the city defense cannons, the undead will attack soon!"

"what?"

The soldiers were shocked when they heard this. A captain immediately stepped forward and asked, "Master Streller, what's going on at the front? What happened to General Furbella and the others?"

"The undead have mutated. They are terribly powerful. We can't stop them at all. The army and adventurers in the front are all dead!" Although he didn't see it with his own eyes, Steller subconsciously thought that it was impossible for the army and those adventurers to stop such a terrifying undead army. It was only a matter of time before they were wiped out.

"My companions and I escaped at all costs just to tell you this news. Hurry up and prepare, otherwise this city will be doomed!" Streller said with a 'miserable' face.

"Everyone, get ready, load the magic stones!"

The captain still had great trust in the words of the gold-level adventurer. He believed that unless Streller was mentally ill, he would not tell such a lie.

And seeing how hurried they were, it didn't seem like they were faking it.

"Yes!" Hundreds of people acted in an orderly manner, and all procedures were completed almost in one go, pointing the muzzle of the magic cannon in the direction pointed by Steller.

"The Lord City Lord has issued an order. If you see any trace of the undead, use the city defense cannon immediately!"

A soldier walked quickly to the captain's side and said.

The captain nodded slightly, took out something like a telescope and looked into the distance.

The 'Red Sword' stood beside him, and Streller couldn't help but admire his own wisdom.

In this case, 'Red Sword' should be the only survivor, and with the credit for providing information, it seems that he is one step closer to being promoted to a glory-level adventurer.

Putting aside the fact that Steller was happily thinking about the future scene, the captain who had been using the telescope suddenly looked strange.

"Master Streller, are you sure that the entire army ahead has been wiped out?" the captain asked again.

"I'm sure!" Steller thought the captain was doubting him, and he immediately became angry because he already felt a little guilty.

"I have personally fought against those undead creatures. No one can understand the extent of their mutation better than me!"

"Really?" The captain's voice sounded a little strange, "But I saw some adventurers walking here, and they didn't seem to be in any serious trouble."

"what?"

This sentence was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for Streller. If someone really escaped and his previous act of deserting the battlefield was announced in Kushiwa, the reputation of the "Red Sword" would be completely ruined.

To this day it had not occurred to Strürer that the threat of the undead might have been lifted.

"Mr. Steller, I need your explanation."

After a while, the captain's face gradually turned livid. He threw the telescope into Strörer's hand and said, suppressing his anger: "Look for yourself."

Streller didn't understand why the captain was so angry, and he had a vague premonition in his heart, but he still raised the telescope and looked into the distance.

"Bang--" the telescope fell, but no one cared about it now.

"No... this is not right... this is impossible..."

Streller's face turned pale instantly, as if he had seen a ghost.

No, even if I saw a ghost I wouldn't be as shocked as I am now.

He would rather see a large group of undead attacking the city than see those low-level adventurers whom he looked down upon return safely...

"That adventurer is so miserable. I heard he was driven out of Kushiwa."

Luo Qiu and Meng Li sat in the hotel's restaurant, enjoying the restaurant's most expensive food.

“Whether it’s humans or other races, there will always be some self-righteous people, and these people will never have a good ending.” Meng Li said vaguely while chewing some unknown vegetables.

"My beautiful lady, I wonder if I have the honor to know your name. It would be great if you could give me this rose that represents love. I swear I can be the best husband in the world."

A handsome young man suddenly appeared next to the two of them. The man half-knelt on the ground, holding a rose in both hands and presented it to Meng Li.

“Ahhh…” Before Luo Qiu and Meng Li could react, a white-haired girl wearing a veil grabbed the man’s ear and lifted him up from the ground.

"I'm sorry, my brother is a little mentally ill." The girl's voice was ethereal, with a hint of purity and holiness.

"Is that so?" Luo Qiu glanced at the two of them with an inexplicable look in his eyes and said, "Then take it home and lock it up quickly. It will scare women if you put it on the street."

"Sorry." The white-haired girl apologized again and dragged her brother out of the hotel step by step.

"Luo Qiu, those two people should be from the Holy See. They have been staring at us from the beginning." Meng Li took out a tissue and wiped his mouth. "What annoying guys."

"Hey, you're not the only woman that guy is staring at. I've also observed him. Whenever a woman passes by, his eyes will always linger on her for a while, but he doesn't show any lust. This is the first time I've seen someone with such a unique personality."

"Humph, if his eyes had been any more obscene, I would have gouged his eyes out just now."

"These two people should have a high status in the Holy See. That man has at least the power of a glory-level adventurer. I wonder what their purpose is."

Luo Qiu tapped the dining table lightly with his fingers. Judging from the two people's previous performance, it was obvious that these two high-ranking officials of the Holy See were coming for them.

No, more of it should be directed at him.

The white-haired girl's eyes were always on Luo Qiu, and although her brother was staring at the women around him, part of his attention was still on Luo Qiu.

It seems that these high-level human beings have finally become alert.

But this is just right, everything is within Luo Qiu's expectations. Isn't solving these little troubles one of the goals of this plan?

"Luo Qiu, where are you going?" Seeing Luo Qiu stand up, Meng Li hurriedly followed.

"Let's go to the Adventurer's Guild. We made a lot of money this time. Haha, the people in the Adventurer's Guild probably didn't expect that all the money would be earned by the two of us."

"They are just some ordinary undead. They haven't even evolved to the second stage. Humans are really fragile." Meng Li sighed as she walked beside Luo Qiu, but she immediately added: "Except Luo Qiu, you are the strongest."

"The strongest?" Luo Qiu smiled and shook his head. "It's better not to set such a flag. It's easy to get slapped in the face."

"What?"

"Nothing, let's go."

"Ah."
