The lone wolf of Freyrdrand

: The Nightmare Comes Again

Bark!

The spikes of that beautiful demon pierced Lothar’s chest.

Buzz!

The young beast spirit walker who summoned the Forged Spirit was swallowed by the endless wave of bearmen.

Hiss!

The terrifying scarecrow with a group of crows opened its metal fangs and bit off Lothar’s face.

Lothar woke up suddenly from the bed and looked up out of the window.

“Is it a nightmare…” Lothar let out a bad breath, and lit the kerosene lamp beside the bed. The live octopus clock pointed on the clock stretched its tentacles to the upper left corner, indicating that it was not past midnight yet.

“Could this be the ghost Sir Emmelden mentioned?” Lothar’s eyes became serious. “This feeling seems… no way…”

Lothar once experienced a nightmare attack. In that small town called Fossbarrow, he and Lacus defeated a demon that plunged the whole town into a nightmare.

“That demon should have been given by the ass… and it can’t appear here, Fossbarrow is so far away…” Lothar dared not take it lightly, he had dealt with demons a lot, whether it was Fiddlesticks, Evelyn, or this demon, are difficult masters to deal with.

And that colorful-haired protoss girl once told him that demons are basically immortal existences, even if the prosthetics fall, demons will not die.

“Sure enough, there is no good thing about dropping the golden siren.” Lothar sighed, “This task is probably very troublesome.”

Lothar couldn’t sleep anymore. He planned to go out to check on the situation of other people living in the villa.

Lothar didn’t take the oil lamp, but condensed a ball of flame directly on his fingers, and pushed open the door of the room by the light of the fire.

It was late at night, but Lothar saw that every light in the corridor of the villa was still on, and ran into the tuxedo butler in the villa head-on.

The housekeeper also looked haggard, with bags under his eyes almost falling to his chin: “Mr. [Luo Sha], are you up?”

“I’ve already woken up.” Lothar extinguished the flame in his hand.

The butler looked at Lothar’s hand twice more: “Then you must already know about our situation.”

“Well, how long have you been haunted by this nightmare?” Lothar asked.

“It’s been like this since Jazz brought us here three months ago.” The butler sprayed some ice water into his mouth to refresh himself, “I’m sorry.”

“You haven’t slept for three months?”

“No, although I didn’t sleep well in the first two months, I was still able to fall asleep. But recently it has become so serious that it is difficult to lie down.”

“Where are the people near your villa? Were they affected by the nightmare?”

“No, I’ve asked many times, only our place is affected.”

“Do you know why you are haunted by nightmares?”

“If I knew, I wouldn’t be so worried every day.”

“Why don’t you move out?”

“That’s what Sir means. He insists on living here.”

Lothar raised his eyebrows: “I want to see Jazz.”

“Okay, please follow me.” The housekeeper said.

The butler brought Lothar to the top floor of the villa, where the tauren guard was watching the door.

“It seems that you have no intention of running away.” The tauren guard nodded towards Lothar, “Your Excellency is inside, you just need to talk to him through the door.”

“Across the door.” Lothar frowned, “It’s not very convenient.”

Section 218

The tauren guard insisted: “This is for the safety of Lord Jazz.”

Lothar didn’t say anything else. After all, he was just a bounty hunter from outside. In Bilgewater, it’s right to be suspicious of anyone.

“My lord.” The butler knocked on the door. “The bounty hunter [Luo Shark] is here. He has already slept in the house.”

“Ahem…” There was a coughing sound in the room, followed by a very hoarse-sounding man’s voice, “Are you willing to help Benjue with this matter? Bounty hunter.”

Lothar walked to the door: “I need to know some information.”

“Ahem…” Sir Emmelden sounded weak, “You can ask, but the lord can tell you everything…”

“Is the jazz from Noxus?”

“Ok……”

“Emperor Capital”

“…”

After a while of silence, Lothar continued to ask: “Since Sir is from Noxus, why did he come to this filthy place like Port Piraeus?”

“For some private matters…”

“If you said it, you didn’t say it.” Lothar thought to himself, and continued to ask the next question, “Since the nightmare only happened in this villa, has Sir ever thought about moving?”

“This place was left to me by my ancestors… Ahem… I can’t give up…”

“So…” Lothar pondered, “Do you have any clue about the nightmare? I can also start investigating.”

“Sorry… nothing at all… the lord doesn’t know why he is haunted by ghosts…”

Lothar asked a few more questions one after another, but the answers he got were all very ambiguous, almost like no answer.answer.

But without answering the matter itself, Lothar has already guessed a lot.

“This commission is definitely not that simple.” Lothar thought, “Do you want to get away from it? Go to other simpler commissions…”

But Lothar is very concerned about the nightmare, which is really too similar to what he experienced in Fossbarrow.

“This demon…could it be coming for me…” Lothar learned from the protoss girl that the demon will leave marks on his prey, similar to the shepherd’s stocking, and when the prey grows to a certain The devil will find him and take his life away.

Lothar wasn’t sure if the nightmare demon had left a mark on him, but Lothar didn’t dare to take it lightly.

“Since we’re here, let’s check it first.” Lothar finally decided to take a dip in the muddy water. He couldn’t help but care about the devil’s affairs.

“I will further investigate this commission.” Lothar said, “I know too little now, but I will try my best.”

“Thank you very much…【Lo Shark】…” After Sir Emmelden finished speaking, he seemed to be extremely exhausted, and he didn’t make another sound.

The butler bowed slightly to Lothar, opened the door of the room a crack, and got in to take care of Sir.

“Good job.” The tauren guard rubbed his eyes and gave Lothar a soft punch on the chest. It seemed that even the strong tauren couldn’t resist the weakening of sleepiness, “You are softer than the twenty-three people in front of you.” The shrimp is much stronger, just let me know if you need my help.”

“Thanks, I will definitely look for you if necessary.” Lothar patted the tauren guards, and then walked out of the villa.

“I can’t get any information from here…” Lothar walked down the mountain, towards the direction of the slaughter dock. “It seems that we have to pay a little bit first.”

You can buy everything in Bilgewater.

As a lawless place and a port island at the junction of the continents of Valoran, Ionia, and Shurima, Bilgewater can be said to be a smuggler’s paradise.

The black powder weapons of Noxus, the silver steel battle armor of Demacia, the rare plants of Ionia, the precious spices of Shurima… I didn’t expect that even Piltover is strictly prohibited from exporting. Hextech weapons can be bought here, and it is not known how these smugglers bypassed the Piltover guards.
