When I turn back into a man [Western Fantasy]

Tong Zhan's brain began to run rapidly, trying to find an appropriate excuse for himself to appear here.

However, when he looked around the gloomy environment...

Forgive him for his incompetence, but he really couldn't think of any good reason to explain why he didn't sleep at night, but ran from the city to the cemetery in the wilderness outside the city.

Do you want to drink and sing with a group of skeletons buried in coffins, and play disco in the wild?

Give me a break.

He doesn't believe it himself.

After realizing that even nonsense was a bit difficult this time, Tong Zhan explained the situation honestly.

"I came here with you."

He secretly raised his eyelids and glanced at Lawson, and said with a guilty conscience: "It was clearly agreed before that I would stay in the capital for a few more days, but now you suddenly asked Brother Oster to take me back to Sunset Town, I am a little worried, right? What happened……"

"Of course! It's my fault to follow you, I promise I won't do it again next time!"

Luo Sen was prepared to listen to his nonsense again, but he didn't expect to hear such words from Tong Zhan.

He joked casually: "What? Are you still worried about me?"

Tong Zhan was stunned.

Why?That seems to be right.

After all, if Lawson sent him back to Sunset Town, no matter what happened in the capital, he would not be affected.

Then he ran over now, wasn't he just worried about Lawson's safety?

Anyway, this will be the state of little loli, Tong Zhan didn't think too much, nodded, "Yes."

Lawson's mouth immediately turned up.

He reached out and touched Tong Zhan's head, "Don't worry, I'll be fine."

"I originally wanted to take you to play in the capital for a while, and attend the birthday celebration at the end of next month by the way, but there may be some bad things happening recently."

"It's not good if you get involved, that's why I thought about asking Oster to take you back earlier."

What is the bad thing?

Although Luo Sen said it lightly, Tong Zhan was always not so relieved.

He tilted his head and said to Rosen, "If that's the case, then I won't go back."

Lawson: "Huh?"

Tong Zhan said awe-inspiringly: "Brother Luo Sen, you have helped me and my brother many times, how can I sneak away when you have something to do?"

He patted his small chest, "Don't worry, I'm not afraid of being involved, I'm amazing."

In fact, Tong Zhan is not a nosy character, but for some reason, he has the idea of ​​not wanting to leave.

He found a reason for himself in his heart.

Anyway, the friendliness is already [-], so he will work harder while the iron is hot, and rush up again, maybe it will not be far away from [-].

Luo Sen raised his eyebrows, feeling that Tong Zhan's sudden enthusiasm was a bit strange.

But since he strongly requested to stay...

Luo Sen thought for a while, and felt that with Tong Zhan's ability, even if something happened, there should be no problem with self-protection, so he let go.

"Okay, then don't go back."

He smiled and added: "If you're still worried about me next time, just tell me directly, instead of following secretly."

Tong Zhan: ...

After finishing off the remaining death knights, they turned around and joined the knights in the black tower, and found that Lawson was gone, so they quickly found him.

It turned out that the adults in their family were talking to a little girl with black double ponytails.

This part of the knights has been stationed in the capital for a long time, and they are relatively backward in terms of gossip, so they don't know Tong Zhan's identity.

So after looking at each other, they just stepped forward and briefly reported to Lawson: "My lord, all the towers have been searched, and all the death knights have been dealt with."

Lawson pointed to the front: "There are still three fish that slipped through the net, take them away together."

Seeing Tong Zhan staring curiously at the members of the Knights, he took the initiative to introduce: "This is the Knights of the Rose, one of the most elite forces under my command."

The fact that he can say this to Tong Zhan means that he no longer intends to hide his identity in front of Tong Zhan.

As the male lead, it is very normal for Luo Sen to have a hidden identity in Tong Zhan's view.

Therefore, Tong Zhan was not surprised that a knight group suddenly popped up under him.But he still nodded very cooperatively, expressing a hint of surprise that was just right.

only……

It doesn't matter if there is a knight order, but it is only one of the forces?

Rich and powerful.

Tong Zhan took a sip of the lemon.

He opened his mouth and wanted to ask Lawson if he was a great nobleman. After all, only nobles and above can have their own knights.

This meeting suddenly found a different place: "Oh? Why aren't you wearing a mask?"

Doesn't this guy always wear his iconic half mask whenever he's outside?

Lawson: "No need now."

He will stay in the capital in the near future, and will not appear as the head of the mercenary group in the short term.

He glanced at the black tower not far away, and said to Tong Zhan: "I still have to go over to see the situation. Do you want to go and have a look together, or go back to the branch first?"

Tong Zhan hurriedly said, "Let's go together."

By the way, I asked curiously: "What's in that tower?"

Lawson led him back, "Usually it's for gravekeepers, but now it's the residence of the dark magician who killed the shadow beast."

Tong Zhan was surprised: "Have you caught him?"

"Not yet," Lawson shook his head. "When I came, there had been no trace of anyone's activity in the tower for about two or three days."

"I think this should be just one of his footholds, and he doesn't live too often."

"What the hell is he trying to do..."

Tong Zhan was a little puzzled.

The two returned to the tower, and the knight in charge of the search handed Rosen a thick alchemy notebook.

"My lord, this is a new discovery."

Lawson took the notebook, flipped through it quickly, and soon found the key point, then frowned.

"Any clues?"

Tong Zhan hooked his neck to look at it.

Luo Sen nodded, and pointed to Tong Zhan the hand-drawn drawing on the last page.

"In addition to the magician, there are obviously traces of alchemist activities here. This notebook should be what the group of death knights wanted to get."

"They spent a lot of time, it seems that they just want to make... a sword?"

Tong Zhan took a closer look and found that the hand-painted drawing showed a very thin carved long sword with unknown flames on the body of the sword, and a bunch of messy arrow annotations around it.

"Ice crystal flower... the soul of a space-type beast... Wuwangshi..."

He only understood three annotations in total, except for the Ice Crystal Flower and the Immortal Stone, the soul of the space-type monster shocked him.

Isn't this the big black sister?

Tong Zhan looked at this realistic hand-painted drawing, and a flash of light flashed in his mind, "They want to use the soul of the shadow beast to forge a sword?"

What the hell!

Wasn't the big black sister made into a sword spirit?

"Look at the contents here, it's probably like this."

Lawson didn't know much about alchemy, so he put away his notes and prepared to go back and let his several alchemist masters study it.

Then he patted Tong Zhan on the head: "You should go and have a good rest, kid."

He didn't have the patience to continue waiting here. After taking away the important things, he directly ordered someone to set a fire in the tower, destroying this foothold.

Now that there are new clues, it's time to make good preparations for how to deal with his dear uncle.

Lawson narrowed his eyes.

Although he basically hasn't appeared in the capital these years, he has never loosened his control over the forces here, just to prevent this situation from happening now.

Facts have proved that his premonition is also very accurate.

The thick smoke from the burning inside the black tower merged into the dark night without attracting anyone's attention.

Tong Zhan followed Luo Sen into a carriage similar to theirs before, and the carriage wobbled away from the cemetery.

He thought that Lawson was going back to the branch after dealing with the matter, so he thought seriously about the purpose of that thin sword along the way.

And Luo Sen was also using the communication stone to send and receive messages non-stop, and had no time to chat with Tong Zhan for a while.

It wasn't until Tong Zhan came back from his contemplation that after they walked half a circle around the city, not only did they not enter the city, but they also tended to go further and further away.

He quickly stretched out his finger and poked Lawson: "Brother Lawson, aren't we going back to the branch?"

Where are you going to run out of the city this late at night?

Lawson was responding to a message. Hearing his inquiry, he was distracted and replied: "Well, I won't go to the branch, go back to my house."

Oh, it turned out to be going to Lawson's house.

Tong Zhan nodded.

After a while, he turned back stiffly, his eyes widened: "What? To your house?!"

After replying to the message, Lawson put away the communication stone and stretched his body lazily.

He leaned on the soft cushion behind him, looked at Tong Zhan's shocked expression, and wanted to laugh a little.

"What's the matter? Visiting my house scares you?"

Tong Zhan: ...

I'm not scared...

He sat down obediently, and tried to formulate: "Well, brother Luo Sen, who are in your family?"

Fortunately, there are still some pastries produced by the system in his package. I will see the parents later, ah!When you see Lawson's family, you can give it as a gift.

Lawson paused for a moment, and then showed a faint smile.

"I only have a younger brother, and he is not at home. If my father and mother were to say, they would have passed away long ago."

Tong Zhan, who was still thinking about what else could be used as a gift, was taken aback.

He blinked, and immediately lowered his head to apologize: "Brother Luo Sen, I'm sorry, I don't know..."

"fine."

Luo Sen interrupted him, looking at his drooping head, with a slight tenderness in his eyes.

"It's been a long time ago, you don't need to apologize."

Tong Zhan didn't expect that he would know that Luo Sen's parents were no longer alive just by asking casually.

He kept silent, turned his head and opened the curtains with some embarrassment, looking at the ink-like night outside the window, he was instantly brought back a long memory.

Lawson looked at him quietly, and the carriage fell silent for a while.

Until a moment later, Tong Zhan, who was immersed in memories, suddenly felt something flashing in front of his eyes.

He withdrew his mind and looked out the window.

Not far ahead, a resplendent and resplendent building that was built like a small palace flickered under the cover of sparse woods.

Even in the middle of the night, against the background of the surrounding lights, the building still looks so magnificent... Wealthy and powerful...

Tong Zhan opened his mouth slightly, and before he turned around to ask, Luo Sen nodded to him, "We're here."
