Chapter 226: Caines Courtyard

There were a lot of people at the Deman Hotel today. Early in the morning, there were at least forty or fifty people gathered in the lobby on the first floor.

Although the lobby on the first floor was spacious enough, it was a little noisier than usual, making Mu Hua think he had come to the wrong place.

Some were checking in, some were working out in the fitness area, some were eating and chatting, and some were even playing cards together.

The Dandelion Inn is quite special. Most of the people who stay here are adventurers. When did these adventurers become so idle?
"What happened? Did the garrison's accommodation explode?" Mu Hua asked Deman, who was busy registering guests, when he arrived at the bar. Deman, who was busy, didn't want to pay attention to him.

Deman has a lot of problems, but with him around, Mu Hua doesn't have to worry about anything related to the hotel, so his problems are nothing that Mu Hua cannot accept or understand.

"The Adventurer's Guild has issued a temporary evacuation order. The Cains Courtyard has been completely blocked and all adventurers have evacuated." Before Deman could answer, an old resident who knew Mu Hua said.

"Cane's Court? 375?" Mu Hua asked for confirmation.

"Yes, a sky city appeared in the north of 375, and the courtyard was temporarily named."

"A hive-class airship has been hovering over the town for a day. It should be the mothership of the patrol fleet. It looks like something big is going to happen here." The adventurer said with interest.

"Let's have the Star Patrol Meeting. We need to negotiate with the Lord of the Courtyard. Look, our mayor is here." Mu Hua said, pointing at Nick who was coming down from upstairs.

At this time, Irene was holding Nick's arm, and the two of them looked very intimate and familiar with each other. It seemed that Nick didn't care about the impact.

"Star Patrol Conference? Haha, that's a good thing." Several adventurers laughed. The people here didn't seem to care about the mayor-level bureaucrats.

"Hi, Mr. Mayor, do you need to recruit guards?" Nick approached and an adventurer greeted him and asked.

Their lives have no intersection with Nick, the acting mayor, and without any intersection, they can naturally live in peace.

In Heiman City, Nick is also a public figure. Some adventurers will take the initiative to greet Nick. They have heard about the Star Patrol Conference and want to hang around Nick to earn some extra money.

"Hey, just you guys? Will you guys join in the fight?" Nick waved his hand in response to the slightly teasing greeting.

"Haha, no matter how we fight, it will never be your guards' turn." Several people laughed, but were also scolded by Nick to get out.

Nick is a major character on the human side of the Star Patrol Conference, but he is also a mascot, mainly responsible for posing. The adventurers who want to be his protectors are obviously not ready to fight.

After a brief banter, Mu Hua waved everyone away. The sound of metal colliding accompanied everyone, but some of the new residents had not even taken off their armor.

Mu Hua discovered that the Tietou men were equipped with riot nets and stun guns, apparently to prevent anyone from causing trouble.

"There is a mothership in the sky. Is it here to participate in the star patrol meeting?" Mu Hua asked Nick who was traveling with him as they walked out of the hotel.

"We have to wait a bit, it won't be that fast. I heard that a demonic tide broke out in a courtyard of the undead in the west, and it just happened to be caught up by the patrol fleet that was about to come here. It will probably take some time." Nick shook his head and said.

"..." Mu Hua was silent. The Courtyard of the Dead in the West, Monroe City? Forget it, let's not discuss this topic in depth.

"Where are you going?" Mu Hua nodded symbolically and changed the subject.

Mu Hua, who was practicing Flash, was a little overwhelmed. He didn't even want to go to the Eternal Night Territory today. He just came out to hang out. Irene, who was following Nick, seemed to be doing something, so Mu Hua asked Nick.

"The witch's hut over there in the woods has been built. Let's go take a look." Nick pointed to the woods in front of the hotel and said casually, glancing at Irene who was holding his arm.

"Mu, Irene wants to join Odysseus's strategy team. I'm going to recommend her. What do you think?"

"Oh? Tricia's cabin was built so quickly? Do you need me to say hello to Odysseus about the strategy team?" Mu Hua glanced at Irene, and there was a flash of joy in Irene's eyes as he spoke.

"No, Irene is still very capable. You are also the owner of the hotel, and you pay too little attention to the wandering witches near the hotel." Nick said jokingly without paying attention to Irene's emotions. Irene is very beautiful and has a certain reputation as a strategist. Although he is not sure about the relationship between Mu Hua and Odysseus, Nick does not think that Irene is worthy of him and Mu Hua to greet Odysseus together.

Nick's reaction also hinted at the extent of his relationship with Irene. Although Irene was a little disappointed, she quickly became natural, as if nothing had happened, and communicated with Mu Hua and Nick in a casual manner.

The forest path in front of the hotel branches off into a fork, and the gravel path extends westward for about twenty meters.

Walking along the gravel road, unlike the wooden house in the woods that Mu Hua had imagined, a stone villa covering an area of ​​about two to three hundred square meters appeared among the trees.

It looks like a standard villa with a skylight on the angled roof. The roof style makes the square villa look less rigid.

The crystallized walls had obvious traces of magic. At this moment, Tricia was arranging vines outside the house, probably trying to use the vines to cover the smooth and rigid walls.

"Hi, Tricia, good morning." Mu Hua greeted Tricia from afar, while Nick and Irene were two steps behind Mu Hua. They still seemed to be cautious about the wandering witch.

"Good morning! Please help me take a look at this house." Tricia glanced at Nick and the others, then turned to Mu Hua.

It was hard to say what the house was like, but Tricia was no longer wearing the long gown that covered her head. Instead, she was wearing a doctor's white coat over the women's suit that outlined her figure.

This witch looks like a professional medical worker at this moment. Two beautiful long legs are revealed under her professional short skirt, black stockings and high heels. This witch knows a lot.

"The house is nice, but what you're wearing is also dangerous." Mu Hua raised his eyebrows and looked Tricia up and down. Tricia smiled faintly, and seemed quite satisfied with Mu Hua's good-natured joke.

"Vivian wants to build a burial ground nearby. If you have no problem with that, how about building it behind your cabin?" Mu Hua asked Tricia.

The necromancer and the boneyard are standard equipment. This piece of woods nominally belongs to Mu Hua. Now Mu Hua gets along well with the people in the town, so no one should bother him if he builds a boneyard here.

"The burial ground is suitable for roaming ghosts, but I can't leave the isolation barrier," Tricia argued.

The bone burial ground has a certain degree of diffusivity, and the isolation barrier is to prevent the breath of death from leaking out and to prevent the bone burial ground from spreading and being polluted.

It is difficult to build a burial ground, and the magic scrolls for the isolation barrier are also very expensive.

However, these are not problems for Mu Hua. He has learned a spirit gathering array that is similar to the magic gathering array. If we ignore the problem of accidental entry, the spirit gathering array is more useful than the isolation barrier in preventing the spread of death energy.

"You don't have to help. Do you need help?" Mu Hua asked as he walked to Tricia and looked at the plant seeds in Tricia's hand.

"You can do this too?" He threw out a seed, which fell on the wall of the house. Under the effect of the vine technique, the seed grew rapidly, and vines grew out in a blink of an eye, climbing up the wall.

"It's okay. Do you want blood-sucking vine?" Mu Hua turned out a few seeds the size of apricot kernels from his palm and asked Tricia.

"No, don't scare away my guests." Seeing Mu Hua taking out the seeds of the blood-sucking vine, Tricia hurriedly stopped him.

Although this seed is relatively expensive, the blood-sucking vine is very ferocious. It will not actively attack, but if it encounters a creature that accidentally touches it, it will entangle the creature to death like a strange python covered with thorns.

"Forget it, I'll keep it to make a trap. What is this?" After putting away the seeds of the blood-sucking vine, Mu Hua picked up some sesame-sized seeds from Tricia's hand and asked.

"Purple sun thorn, the flowers they bloom in winter are very beautiful. You can also plant some outside the hotel, but it will entangle the trees to death, so don't let it fall into the woods." As Tricia explained, Mu Hua threw the seeds.

No magic circle appeared, but several vines had already broken through the ground.

"Hidden casting? Mage?" Tricia looked at Mu Hua in surprise.

"It's okay." Mu Hua looked indifferent, but the three people present chuckled and shook their heads, and anyone could see the smugness on the corners of his mouth.
