Chapter 4 Arrived in Lister

Athena nodded her head. She was not in a hurry and looked at Kotter curiously who rushed toward them.

"Oh, god of creation, I finally found you. Are you okay?" Seeing Locke safe and sound, Kotter was too excited to say a word.

Locke shook his head and smiled, "Uncle Kotter, I'm fine. I just got some bruises."

As soon as the wolf king esCapetd, the other ice wolves quickly dispersed, and Kerton and the others also arrived one after another.

Kerton knelt on the ground with a guilty look on his face. "Master Locke, it's all our fault. We didn't protect you well."

Sam and Becky also half knelt, looking guilty.

"It's not your fault, and I'm fine now."

Locke hurried to help them up.

After comforting Kerton and the others, Locke looked at Athena and introduced to them, "This is Miss Athena. She will go to the castle with us."

Kotter and the others had already noticed Athena. They were just too worried about Locke's safety, so they held back their curiosity.

Looking at Athena up and down again, they felt that the girl in front of them was like a goddess coming from the world. She was stunning, and her temperament was even more superior to that of the noble count ladies. It could even be said that they had never seen such a beautiful woman in their lives!

"Nice to meet you, Miss Athena."

Kotter and the others greeted Athena. Although they were very curious why such a beautiful girl suddenly appeared, since Locke did not explain, they did not continue to ask.

Athena also greeted them politely.

After completing the corresponding etiquette, the eyes of Kotter and the others were focused on the giant stone not far away.

There were already cracks on the giant stone, and the blood in the cracks hadn't dried up. The blood was mixed with the fur left by the wolf king, and the silver fur had been dyed blood red.

Looking at the blood on the ground, Kotter couldn't help but ask, "Master Locke, how did you get rid of the danger here?"

Locke glanced at Athena and shrugged helplessly. "Maybe gods bless us."

Gods? Stunned for a moment, Kotter and the others thought Locke was just joking.

Could it be that a certain strong man passed by and saved Master Locke and this beautiful lady?

It should be like this. The strong man had a special identity and a strange character. Master Locke couldn't expose his identity, so he just found a random reason.

The image of the man who had just left after solving the troubles had already been constructed in the minds of Kotter and the others.

Locke's carriage was destroyed, but fortunately, the magic books were still there, which surprised him.

Afraid of other unforeseen events, Kotter took his men to get a simple pack, finding horses back as walking tools for Locke and Athena. Then they set out on the road again.

However, they had a vague feeling that their master's physical strength seemed to have increased a lot, and he looked more masculine than before.

Of course, they didn't know that Locke's body was really strong. They just thought that he had grown up after being attacked by the magical beast.

In the evening, Locke and the others stopped.

More than ten meters in front of them, several stone houses stood lonely, and the walls were broken. Fortunately, the stone house in the middle was two floors. The tower still existed, and its shape retained the feeling of a castle.

This was the base camp of their trip—Lister castle.

There were already people to greet them waiting in front of the castle.

Although the old man in the lead dressed plainly in civilian clothes, his clothes were clean and tidy. Obviously, he was the leader of the civilian.

Seeing Locke, the old man led several civilians behind him to kneel with a respectful face.

"Respectful lord, Hansen Phil welcomes you. Lister will be honored by your arrival."

Although Locke was known as a "loser" in the noble circle, he was not someone ordinary people could offend. Moreover, Locke was the lord of Lister, so Hansen didn't dare to show any disrespect.

"Get up. You don't have to be so restrained."

Locke smiled and motioned them to stand up. As a modern civilized person, Locke didn't like others to kneel to him.

Seeing Locke's expression, Hansen and the others were relieved. They had preliminary contact with Locke. Although the new lord was called a "loser", he was not a playboy.

Lister was a poor and barren castle. If there was a lord who oppressed them, they would be doomed.

"My lord, have you been attacked?"

Hansen asked, bowing to the injured servants behind the line.

"We met wolves on the border of Lister."

Locke replied frankly.

"What? You met wolves!"

Hansen exclaimed. The people behind him were also frightened. The appearance of a pack of wolves was a disaster for Lister.

"It doesn't matter. The wolves have been kicked out of Lister." Locke explained when he saw the frightened look on Hansen's face.

"My lord, thank you for helping us solve the danger!"

Hansen said gratefully to Locke and the others also expressed their thanks.

From Hansen's words, Locke knew that for some unknown reason, there were often wild beasts, even magical beasts, entering Lister. But maybe it was because Lister was really barren, these wild beasts and magical beasts stayed for a few days and then left.

As Hansen spoke, he respectfully led Locke and Athena towards the castle. At the same time, Kotter also ordered his fellows to unload the goods.

Following Hansen, Locke walked into the castle.

The paint on the iron gate of the castle had almost fallen off. Although it had been wiped, there were still yellow rust marks on it. The castle must have been carefully swept, so it looked clean and tidy.

Before long, Kotter had ordered his fellows to unload all the materials and put them into the warehouse.

As the level-1 knight, with outstanding fighting skills and management ability, Kotter was trusted by Count Capet. As the leader of the knight this time, he made Locke feel much more relieved along the way.

At the same time, Hansen, the supervisor, had also arranged a "horrible" dinner. The food that was hard to swallow refreshed Locke's understanding of the terrible taste of food in the world.

They had been on the way for more than ten days and encountered the attack of wolves. When they arrived at the castle, they were a little tired. After dinner, Locke asked them to have a rest.

After arranging a room for Athena next to his bedroom, Locke also took a hot shower comfortably and went to bed.

Locke thought to himself, "Open the attribute panel."

Looking at the board in front of him, Locke still felt dreamy, but the real feeling of everything around him told Locke.

Yes, Locke, you got the system of gods and summoned the powerful Athena!

In a good mood, Locke fell asleep.
