Chapter 179: The bottle you’re thinking of.

Heading out the door with Grid, the whole street of Dalaran after that mess last night was filled with a strange fishy odor, and Jace’s stomach flipped as he smelled the putrid stench of those dead bodies in the smell.

He slumped against the wall and dry-heaved for a while, and it took a long time before he could only vomit up some acidic water and nothing of the black, rotting mass of the dead.

Despite some pain from a contraction in my stomach, I was quite relieved.

As the two passed the entrance to an alley, Grid muttered, “Is there a gnome living here ……”

Jace followed his line of sight and realized that several walls had been destroyed and part of the roof and sills of the house had been blown down.

After looking at it for a while longer, he realized that wasn’t this the same place where he had been captured by the Blood Demon yesterday?

Seeing this again in the daytime, he realized what exactly he had experienced last night …… and how powerful the blood demon actually had brute force.

It would take at least a backhoe to cause damage of this magnitude on his own.

“That’s where …… it was yesterday.” He muttered.

“Talon Bloodmage, you say?” Grid asked in a low voice.

“Right.”

“Did anyone else see it? You must have used shadow magic.”

“I don’t know.” Jace said, “I wasn’t even guaranteed to be alive at the time, and you’re asking me to look around to see what’s around me, too much of an imposition, aren’t you? By the way, those two elves must have seen it.”

Grider said, “Will they betray you?”

“Should …… I don’t know.” Jess said, “Forget it, take a step.”

“Isn’t it kind of upsetting to have defeated Talon Blood Demon and not be able to let anyone know about it? I’d be upset if I were me.” Grid asked quietly.

“It wouldn’t have been me who defeated it.” Jace said, “Think about it, if you went with nine mercenaries to kill a dragon and you ended up being the only one out of those ten to get hurt, would you still be going around blowing it off?”

Grid exclaimed, “In that case, it would be better to have that dragon burn us all to death, and maybe have the bard blow the story out of proportion to save a good name.”

Jace frowned, the guy was still like that, but it meant the effect was achieved.

Moving forward a bit more, Jace looked at the alleyways along the side of the road as he walked, thinking to see what was going on near the Blood Demon’s body, but ended up walking for quite a while without finding the area he was familiar with.

Probably going in the wrong direction, Dalaran isn’t a big village but it’s not a small one either, and I got myself lost yesterday.

There was no telling what Kenrito would investigate from the discarded husk of Talon Blood Demon.

Crossing halfway across town to the neighborhood of the pharmacy and alchemy room, from a distance Jace could see that it was already stacked with people.

All manner of injured people sat or stood outside, only the ones injured to the point of dying had a chance of being brought in, and there was an ominous scent throughout the air, mixed with the stench of shadows and the charred smell of flames.

Those mages were all stony-faced, and the purple-clad guards on the periphery didn’t look too good either, not like they had just won the battle of defense.

At that moment, Jace noticed that several elves were standing by one of the side walls talking about something, and a silver-haired elf in green robes leaned to the side keeping her eyes on the building that housed the patients, which seemed to be Winressa Windwalker.

“I saw the windwalker, did you see her?” He told Grid, “Just as well we don’t have to go looking for her where the elves live.”

Grid glanced at the large pile of male and female elves over there and frowned, “Go on your own, I’ll wait here.”

Jace nodded and walked across the street, Winressa sensed someone approaching her from a distance and raised an eyebrow in this direction.

One could tell that she looked like she really hadn’t slept all night, and the refreshed look she had seen in the tavern before was completely gone.

“Ms. Walesa.”

The other man asked warily, “Who are you?”

Jace froze, was it hard to recognize the wrong person? Now he was a little unsure, was this Winressa?

He tried, “I’m the one from last night ……”

“Ah!” Winressa’s eyes widened at once.

“You …… uh, I feel as if, you don’t look quite the same as you did last night.”

Jess half-joked, “You don’t think all humans look alike, do you, ma’am?”

Winressa said helplessly, “Well, it really isn’t very distinguishable for me. I rarely leave Quel’thalas, and this isn’t the first time I’ve made this mistake, I’m really sorry.”

Jace confessed, “I actually recognized you by your voice and hair color too, and I can’t tell elves apart.”

Winressa smiled shyly and asked again, “By the way, is your friend okay?”

“He’s fine.”

“That’s good.” Winressa said, “I wanted to thank you last night, but you left in too much of a hurry …… Mr. Jace Sesso, and to be honest, by the end of the day I didn’t really have much confidence that I could defeat Talon Blood Demon, I almost thought I was going to die there.”

“There’s really no need to thank me, if you guys hadn’t stepped in, I’d have died at least twice already.”

With that, Jace took out the knife he had clipped.

Noticing the wound on Jace’s shoulder, Walesa took it upon herself to help him remove his shirt and hand it back, sliding the knife into the empty sheath at her waist.

“I hope it has helped you.”

“A big help.” Jace stared at the knife and asked, “How’s Kefal doing?”

“He was badly injured and is still being treated inside.”

“Will it leave any disabilities?”

“The human priest in there said no.”

For the moment, Walesa’s tone was a lot more relaxed than it had been when Jace had first come over.

She put her hand on the hilt of her blade and said, “He wasn’t the most badly injured of the farseers.”

“Were many of the farseers injured?” Jace asked.

Thinking about what Talon Blood Demon said yesterday, it seemed as if he had some special hatred for elves.

Wenressa said, “Originally the farseers were only responsible for the security of the embassy district, but those Death Knights …… you know they were the vanguard of the attack on Quel’Thalas and the murderers of my loved ones, and any of the children raised in that land must never allow these living dead to run so roughshod over them. “

“That’s why being able to defeat Talon Blood Demon …… meant so much to me, Mr. Sesso. Although we weren’t able to kill him completely, we taught him enough of a lesson. I believe that one day, he will pay for all the crimes he has committed.”

Jace could probably guess who the kin she was talking about was none other than her youngest brother, Lylas Windrunner.

When the orcs attacked Quel’thalas, Leras, who had just begun his ranger training, was killed while fighting back against the invaders, an event that directly led to Aurelia’s determination to cross the Dark Gate.

And what Winressa had said more or less corroborated Jace’s earlier suspicions.

This means that the Blood Demon actually took on the responsibility of luring away the Farseer last night, and someone else stole the Eye of Dalaran.

Walesa took a deep breath, then smiled a little and said, “Besides, you don’t have to worry too much about Mr. Kefal, after all, I gave him water from the well, so he should be back to normal soon, and will have to join in taking care of the rest of the companions sooner rather than later.”

“Ah, it’s the Well of the Sun.” Jace nodded.

Not only is the well water of the Well of the Sun rich in powerful ancient magic, but it also has some pretty awesome healing powers, and the game’s Well of the Sun water bottles make excellent healing jewelry.

Of course, at this time, the well of the sun has not been destroyed, the water bottle of the well of the sun is not as valuable as it was later, some of the nobles of Silvermoon City’s home collection of water bottles preserving a little bit of the well water of the well of the sun, which can be used as a collection, can be used to show off, and of course the most important thing is that it saves lives.

Slow down ……

“Wait.” Jess asked, “What I drank yesterday ……”

Walesa’s long silver eyebrows twitched. “That’s the bottle.”
