She Is Not a Witch Chapter 88: White Spider Forest
In the early morning of the next day, just after dawn, the side door on the back hill of the castle was pushed open.
Viscount Moruo walked back to the castle imposingly, with the heavy bags under his eyes from staying up all night still remaining on his face. As an old man over fifty, he is no longer young. Behind him, the housekeeper dragged a girl into the room. It can be seen from the unhappy faces of the two that last night's action was not smooth.
Throwing the ragged girl aside, the butler turned around and closed the door carefully, and then came to Viscount Moruo to ask carefully.
"How should I deal with her?" Viscount Mo Ruo was obviously very irritable at this time, so the butler asked extra cautiously.
"Why did you bring her back? Just put her to death outside and it's over." Viscount Moruo waved his hand in disgust.
"My lord, if you throw a dead body outside at this time, it will always cause a lot of trouble." The housekeeper explained in a low voice. The discovery of a corpse in the wild is likely to attract reports from adventurers. Even if it can be suppressed, it will bring a lot of trouble, and it is not in line with the current plan to keep a low profile.
"Tsk, what a trouble, lock her up underground in the castle, and we'll talk about it later." Viscount Moruo took off his gloves, threw them aside, and left angrily. At this time, he needs to eat a big meal to calm down, and then needs a sufficient sleep.

In the small town under the hillside of the castle, Lorraine Hill had just woken up.
After washing his face and putting on the suit of silver armor again, Lorraine Hill walked out of the room.
"Good morning, Miss Messia." Members of the caravan on the road greeted, and some adventurers who knew her last night also waved to the girl.
"Good morning, beautiful and heroic Miss Mercia."
Walking through the courtyard where the caravan was stationed, Lorraine Hill came to the place where breakfast was prepared. Today's meal is scones and hot vegetable soup.
In the lively small cafeteria, everyone chatted about their recent work and what happened.
"I heard that many monsters have appeared nearby recently, and many adventurers have been summoned by missions."
"Well, yes, field tools such as tents and ropes are also quite expensive. Unfortunately, among the goods we brought this time, there are not many of these prepared."
"I missed another good opportunity to make a fortune." A caravan member sighed.
"Not necessarily, you can always find something suitable, such as candles, blankets, etc., which are also needed in the wild. And this time, our caravan is here. Even if other chambers of commerce receive the news and send people to transport the goods, It will be about two weeks later."
"Take advantage of this time to set up a stall and try to make a small profit."
"Well, you are still smart." The two laughed again as they talked.
Listening to the words chatting not far away, Lorraine Hill was thoughtful. After breakfast, she stood up and walked towards the adventurer's hall in the city.
After inquiring and handing over, Lorraine Hill also knew the direction of the next mission, which was in the mountains not far from the small town.
"That's the direction. Go west along the mountain wall, about 20 miles away, there is a forest full of cobwebs. That's the object you want to clear."
"Well, I understand." The girl nodded, and then she asked the counter staff again.
"Are there a lot of Warcraft recently?"
"Yes, although they are not high-level monsters, most of them are only level 1-2, but they are still very threatening to ordinary people."
"In this case, if the adventurer is too busy, how will the local lord usually deal with it. I rarely travel, and I don't know much about this area."
"Under such circumstances, we will generally release higher tasks, and recruit and recruit people on a larger scale to solve them."
"And if the magical beast is above Sequence 6, the local lord will usually report it to the higher level, and the nobles at the higher level will always have the means."
"The great nobles have to know a lot about Sequence 6 powerhouses that ordinary people rarely see, and some of them even serve in their mansions."
"As for going up, the existence of monsters like Sequence 7 will attract attention in the entire empire. At that time, the sages will receive the news and send people over."
"Compared to ordinary people like us, the extraordinary people trained by Emenas are too strong. They send some graduates at will to solve problems."
Next, Lorraine Hill inquired a lot about the situation in the empire and the southern territory, and then temporarily resigned before arousing suspicion.
Let's stop here today, if you ask again, it will look very abnormal, Lorraine Hill thought. Let's discuss the current situation with some mercenaries later. These mercenaries and adventurers traveled around the southern border due to missions or work, and their understanding of the situation was more realistic.
Carrying the long sword, the girl turned around and went to the market, bought some equipment for survival in the wild, and then began to march towards the mountain. Although she doesn't lack these things, she still has to put on a show after all.
The glaring sun baked the ground. Although it was already September, the southern part of the empire did not fall into the cold, and the heat wave of summer still remained.
Walking in the quiet mountain forest, only the chirping of cicadas and birds in the distance can be heard around. Lorraine Hill looked around curiously. Compared with the forest in Clancia, the plants here are much bigger The weeds under the shade of the trees have different appearances.
This looks like mignonette, with white finely divided flowers. Lorraine Hill glanced across a clump of grass leaves in the shade, and squatted down to watch it curiously.
In fact, she is still very interested in all kinds of flowers and plants. At this time, she was a little happy when she saw the flowers and plants recorded in the book but she had never seen them with her own eyes.
Stopping and stopping along the way, although it feels like an outing, the actual speed is much faster than ordinary adventurers. The armor on her body would not hinder the girl's movements, she lightly stepped on the dead branches and several roots in the forest, and could always land on a flat surface.
As Lorraine Hill continued to advance into the forest, the small town behind became smaller and smaller, and finally disappeared from sight after turning a hillside.
This is already deep in the forest, and occasionally small animals can be seen among the bushes. Some of them were gray woodrats, wild boars with manes, white-tailed deer with a little white hair.
"This...."
Lorraine Hill, who was walking in the forest, stopped because a small animal stood in front of her.
It looks like a raccoon dog, with black and white fur, but it looks similar to a raccoon, but it is actually two different animals.
This raccoon dog should not be an animal in this forest. Lorraine Hill remembered that this animal should live by the water.
This little guy seemed to be thirsty, with a long mouth, and the thick hair on his body made it difficult for him to dissipate his body heat, so he could only breathe out with his tongue out.
It looked at the girl a little nervously, seemed to be hesitating, a little scared but somewhat asking for others, it seemed that it was not afraid of people.
"Are you thirsty?" Lorraine Hill was a little puzzled, she thought about taking out a watery orange from behind, breaking it open and handing it over.
The little guy immediately squatted on the ground and began to eat happily. After eating, he licked his lips, as if he still had more to say, and raised his head to look at the girl again.
"Okay, I'll give you another one." The girl thought, and then took out another orange.
Just like that, the black-and-white raccoon ate three oranges in a row before barely stopping.
Then Lorraine Hill continued to move forward ~IndoMTL.com~ This raccoon dog also followed. A savior for survival in the forest.
For this, Lorraine Hill had no choice but to shake his head, letting it hang far behind him.
However, the destination is almost here.
The girl raised her head and looked between the tall tree branches. Some white spider webs came into her eyes, and the forest ahead was also dark.
Thick spider webs covered the woods, and some small spiders crawled along the trunks in places where the sun did not shine, which made people feel a little creepy.
No wonder no one else takes this quest.
Observing the situation inside the forest, Lorraine Hill slowly pulled out the sword, and a faint purple shimmer gradually shone on the blade.
As the magic power gathered and surged, there were rustling sounds in the forest, and a few huge and ferocious white spiders surged out, and their dense eyes looked at the delicate adventurer under the shade of the tall tree. By.
