Dawn of the Grey Tower
Chapter 106
Cheese, they led by the old woman into the hut. As observed from a distance, there is not much space in this room. In addition to the living room where a group of people are sitting at this time, it is barely spacious. The kitchen and bathroom separated by a wall seem a little cramped. As for the bedroom, because the door to the bedroom was closed, a few people could not see what was going on inside. But judging from the total floor area of the house, the old man''s bedroom should not be too big.
Naturally, sitting on the armchair by the fireplace, the five or six big dogs surrounded the wolf witch. If we don''t consider the terrifying appearance of these hounds, such a scene can be regarded as harmonious. Although the living room space is not small, it can be seen that it may be for the convenience of large-scale dog activities. There is not much furniture in this room. In addition to the armchair under the elderly, there is only a single dining table and a coat hanger with two coats. Contrary to the simplicity of the furniture, the living room floor is covered with a thick fur carpet, and the walls are decorated with a variety of animal specimens or fur, which makes the cottage more wild. This gives people a sense of disobedience. Such a tough room should belong to a strong man with a hunting knife at his waist and a hunting bow on his back, rather than an old woman leaning against the fireplace.
Realizing that there was no chair for them to sit in this room, cheese took his companions to sit on the floor. Because of the thick fur, sitting on it was not uncomfortable, but relaxing. Now, if anyone else approached the room, he would have been mistaken for an old lady telling a story to her grandchildren.
"Cough, let''s go on..." Looking at the old man did not intend to speak, cheese coughed gently, trying to continue the topic in front of the door. But just like what happened in front of the gate, the master''s words were interrupted by the old man.
"What''s your name?" When asked this question, the old man was looking at Jack.
A little embarrassed to look at open mouth as if static cheese, "monkey" with a bitter smile to reply.
"My name is Jack." He felt that he could not afford to conceal anything in front of the old woman. It was like facing his own bad tempered grandmother. The old man in front of her looks about the same grade as the Lord of wolf, but everyone knows that she must be much older than she looks.
"And the surname? Don''t be so secretive as those mages. Tell me your full name The old man said impatiently, and by the way despised the casters who did not dare to show their true names.
"Wolfwalkers are naturally immune to most magic, and even cursing them with their real names has little effect, so they don''t have the same taboos as we do." Cheese explained, though he didn''t know why he said that. Perhaps he just didn''t want his peers to see his caution as a sign of weakness.
"Schizou, ma''am, my last name is schizou, and my full name is Jack schizou." The hunter''s son replied. This is the first time that he has given his surname, and the straightforward and obvious meaning of "split bone" is more like the name of an orc than a human. Others who noticed this turned their attention to Jack, not to mention cheese, whose strange surname even Mona was first known to them. Usually in the army, people call him Jack or "monkey".
But unlike others, the hermit looked satisfied after hearing Jack''s surname.
"Split bones? It''s a cracked bone. Is it a descendant of that family? " The old man gave a strange laugh and whispered.
"You Know my ancestors? " Jack gets excited when he sees the reaction. When he was a child, he asked his parents about his strange surname, but his father didn''t answer him. As a northerner, his mother didn''t know the origin of the surname. Fortunately, the folk customs of Longji mountain are very united. Although Jack''s family lives in the outer part of the small town at the foot of the mountain as hunters, the northerners did not crowd them out. Jack grew up with the children in the town when he was young, and he did not continue to question his strange surname. But at this time, hearing the old man''s reaction, the other party is likely to know the origin of his blood, which makes "monkey" can not help asking.
"Yes, of course I do. Your ancestors did not give me less trouble. In the final analysis, the surname "split bone" does not belong to human beings. Do you really don''t know? You have frost blood on you. " The hermit looked at Jack and said.
"Frost devil? How could that be possible! " Before Jack could know what frost devil was, cheese called out after hearing the old woman''s words. It seems that the mage knows exactly what frost demons are.
"What is frost devil?" The landlady asked suspiciously that she had never heard of this address.
"Frost devil is the name of a subspecies of trolls that live in the north. They are named for their blue white skin and extremely low body temperature. But how could that be possible? Not to mention that frost demons are not the same species as human beings, I remember that the last frost demon tribe disappeared 100 years ago! In the hundreds of years before that, due to the problem of quantity, they have been regarded as the existence of legend The mage mobilized the knowledge in his brain and explained."Yes, you are right. The last frost tribe did disappear a hundred years ago. And the surname of that tribe is the cleft bone. " The wolf witch said with a smile that her teeth had become the fangs of wild animals. "Besides, it was the schizoid clan that destroyed my tribe!"
Hearing the words squeezed out of his teeth, the mage instinctively felt something bad. He quickly stood up and protected Jack behind him. At this time, the fierce emotions of the old man and other animals have been exposed. Although it was sunny outside, the atmosphere in the hut in the slum was as thrilling as the coldest winter night.
Seeing the mage''s reaction, Elsa and Mona pulled out their weapons and blocked the two wings of cheese. Three people formed a barrier to isolate the shocked "monkey" from each other. At this time, Jack was too shocking news to react, he murmured.
"I am Troll? "
